The flat-shaped carriage became a temporary rest stop for the students, in addition to some girls in the class who were really tired of walking, even girls from several nearby classes would come to take a break, which made Lu Chen's popularity go up to a new level. Melissa and Talia, who were with him at the same time, also became the object of envy of everyone, because in everyone's eyes, this carriage was specially obtained by Lu Chen for the two of them, and such a move for the sake of his girlfriend directly turned Lu Chen into the ideal lover in the minds of most girls, after all, most of the boys around him were unwilling to carry a bag for them.
After an afternoon of marching, nothing happened, and the brigade soon followed the time into the late autumn night, and then everyone began to camp in the field.
And Lu Chen, who had a carriage, naturally didn't have to bother about this, not to mention the shadow of the caterpillar in his heart, so that he didn't dare to sleep on the grass all night; after untying the riding beasts pulling the cart and letting them graze aside, he made a big bed on the carriage.
As for the two beauties, after the noon incident, they didn't care what others would think, and when they saw Lu Chen making the bed, they blushed and put their hands together, as if they were already Lu Chen's little wives;
Lu Chen didn't think much about it, anyway, he just wanted to take care of these two girls who were good to him, let them stay in the carriage, and get off the car to get dinner. Unlike the tension at noon, the night of the non-military army was enough for him to make a hearty dinner, so with a large space ring, he turned the boring marching meal into a "party", and undoubtedly attracted some characters who could move freely again.
Needless to say, Russell and the others doded on Leni's little sister, he was the first to arrive, and then the inspection team composed of college tutors also came in groups to eat and drink in the name of inspection, anyway, they all knew that Lu Chen had the hand of the vice president of the housekeeper, and there would be nothing to criticize, and then he was a member of the army, and he was an old acquaintance he knew during the last college mission.
Originally, these sergeants on patrol came to see who dared to violate the marching rules to hold a banquet, but when they saw that it was Lu Xien, the newly promoted marquis, they sat down unceremoniously to eat something together after a few polite words, after all, it was more difficult to endure such a night without adding some. There was just a hearty laugh, and the soldiers immediately threw away their food and stood upright.
"Haha, I thought someone kidnapped my people, it turns out that the Marquis of Lucien is entertaining exchange students. It's okay, since it was invited by the Marquis, you can accompany me, but you can't delay the night patrol. Lord Marquis, don't you mind walking with me?" said the man a little "informally", and with his age, he looked like a gentleman who had come to mix military exploits.
Clapped his hands and appeased the two girls who wanted to accompany him, Lu Chen didn't say anything, and followed the person in front of him, as if the two were friends who had known each other for a long time.
Watching the two leave, Russell glanced at his two teachers a little nervously, and after seeing the teacher shaking his head slightly, he could only dispel the idea of letting Leni, a sister who likes to pester Lu Chen a little, follow. It's just that the person who opened his mouth to invite him would always worry about what he would say to Lu Chen, and the original food no longer tasted in his mouth, because he knew that this person was the head of the 58th Legion of the Phinaxiu Kingdom who was responsible for the safety of the students on the way to training, Prince Clarence West, and he let his subordinates stay here to eat, which was obviously a kind of surveillance in disguise.
Leaving the camp, it was not until the campfire by the carriage became difficult to see that Lu Chen said: "Your Highness Clarence, just say anything, and go further, I will suspect that you have bad intentions." ”
"Uh...... Haha, you're so much more interesting than I thought, no wonder you're recognized by Verona. Clarence was not surprised at all that his identity was directly revealed, who let those subordinates see him react that way, if the kid in front of him still stupidly asked who he was, he would have to consider whether he should use his power to chase Verona back.
Retiring from his men, Clarence continued, "Actually, I've wanted to see you for a long time, but you seem to be busier than me, hehe...... First of all, thank you for the idea you gave me last time, let me cheat a big favor from my father, and then about the Skinner family, I want to share some benefits, or do a good job for the kingdom, I don't know if you, the mastermind behind the scenes, have any good ideas? Don't look at me like that, rest assured that I haven't gone to Verona. ”
As a prince, Clarence must have his information channels, and it is normal for him to know that some of his arrangements, Lu Chen didn't bother more, but the dangers to be faced in the training had not yet begun, and he encountered some messy things, which made him very unhappy, but he was afraid that the other party would annoy his second wife, Lu Chen still said: "What do you want to get? Just 'some benefits' is too general, whether it is financial resources, manpower, technology, or something else, it is not clear that it is not possible." ”
"Heh, it looks like I'm looking for you right. Manpower, the legion spends too much on equipment maintenance, and if I can have a group of dedicated maintenance personnel, I will be satisfied. ”
"Manpower ......" After thinking for a while, Lu Chen replied a little unwillingly: "You can marry a woman of some status in their family in advance, or you can find a way to charge all the people you want, and then be assigned to the army to do hard labor...... If you don't want people to know, you can also buy someone personally, let him take the lead at a specific time, and successfully lead people to escape. ”
These methods are relatively bad, but because his wife might have thrown himself into his arms, Lu Chen still gave him human resources that were not very reliable for him.
"Very good way, but these are all based on the inevitable demise of the Skinner family, right?" Clarence did not stupidly ask "why are you so confident", because his so-called "intelligence" is a secret order from the kingdom to the Skinner family, an expensive fee that the kingdom is unlikely to pay off, which can only mean that the Skinner family must perish, otherwise the kingdom will have no money to do anything in two or three years.
"Yes, but don't worry about this, you should be told what might happen in this training. Although there is nothing wrong with Beaumont, but his self-preservation behavior has completely split Skinner, and it is not only a group of people who do not support him who are expelled from the family, but also the chain that allows their family to really unite, no matter how tough the remaining people are, they are just a small piece of iron that will be dispersed quickly, and will only take care of their own interests, at least in the short term, it is impossible to be as united as before; 。 Because of Verona's relationship, Lu Chen simply spread things out, so as not to have something unpleasant for everyone in the future.
"Wow, the Skinner family is really fate to see them when they meet you, if you guess correctly, you should have other means to ...... Don't worry, I don't mean anything else, just ask casually, you don't have to tell me anything. It seemed to be unintentional and casual, but after causing a slight change in Lu Chen's breathing, Clarence had completely understood.
"Then shouldn't you sce me the intelligence report you want to exchange with me? Also, don't look cynical anymore, it doesn't match your temperament at all, it's too fake. Lu Chen said politely at all.
"Ah, hehe, isn't this to cooperate with you, and it's rare to be like this, and it's quite easy. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Clarence's temperament changed back to iron-blooded and strong, and after taking out a topographical map and handing it to Lu Chen, he continued: "In order to capture the rebels and protect those exchange students, the kingdom has dispatched three legions, including me, and all the troop deployments are recorded on it. Also, in addition to being careful of the Assassins and the rebellion of the Skinners, you also have to be careful of two people, one is my eldest brother Angus and the other is my cousin Ulysses. ”
Seeing Lu Chen looking at himself so quietly, Clarence smiled helplessly before continuing: "I didn't mean to provoke anything, the assassination during the last academy mission, I think only the two of them can cultivate such an assassin team." The eldest brother has completely experienced the succession process of his father, and his personality is a bit extreme, and he may do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and the cousin has always believed that his father took his all, including his uncle's life, so he ...... Heh, you just need to keep an eye on it anyway. "Maybe it's because of personality, Clarence won't talk about it here, and it's completely up to Lu Chen to judge for himself.
A wave of unsettled, wave after wave, Lu Chen suddenly felt that his head was extremely big, and after a few polite words, he took the initiative to end the conversation and said goodbye and went back to the camp.
"What do you think?" asked Clarence not long after Lu Chen left.
"Hehe, strange boy, but it's worth teaching him about this friend, and the man Verona has his eye on must have more secrets. But what you just said disappointed me, why don't you tell him that Malcolm Little is working for Ulysses? ”
"I know, but as you can see, after more than ten years, my father still has a grudge against his cousin, and he is willing to give me the command of one more regiment and two official positions that can speak for me in the court, and not let the matter be heard; This matter can only be known to the rest of the population, and if he is not in a hurry, it is better for Pahn or Fei Luna to reveal it. Clarence said with a little grief.
"Hehe, Pahn? You are still worried about this younger brother, even if he has no trace of the whole Skinner family recently, he has no military power in his hands, at most he is a businessman, but Princess Luna is worth noting, she has not returned to the academy this week, and now there is no sign of her in the team, I don't know what to do at my grandmother's house, his uncles are all battle-hardened elite soldiers. ”
"Okay, I'm just casually mentioning it, stop talking nonsense, and tell me your opinion on Lucien's three methods. Clarence urged.
"No opinion, it's okay to do it all, it's not a conflict anyway, you happen to be interested in Sophia, and her parents are even more ostracized by the family, so it's better for them to drag them into the water at this time. ”
“...... Kenny Wilkins, I can see that you are more ruthless than Lucien, no wonder Verona didn't want you in the first place. ”
“...... Clarence West, you're no better than me, you look decent, but in fact, you have a bad stomach, and you deserve to be abandoned by Verona before you graduated. ”
The two of them shook each other in the dark, completely ignoring the fact that the guards around them had quietly walked a few steps away, pretending to be patrolling and snickering.
