Chapter 10: Open Battles and Secret Battles

Facing the threat of Manager Li, Ye Cheng was furious, and his face turned cold.

Manager Li actually has the face to sue in front of the prince.

It was he who provoked the incident first.

Before Ye Cheng could speak, Manager Li knelt in front of Ling Xiaoyue, kowtowed like pounding garlic, tears rained down, and cried in front of the prince:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you also have to be the master of the old slave! Ye Cheng, who refused to obey discipline, actually beat Xu Gonggong and others in public, which has turned against the sky! ”

Seeing Manager Li's performance, Ye Cheng was shocked.

These tears, these expressions, if you don't award you an Oscar, I'm sorry for you.

"Ye Cheng? Dog minion, what did you do again? ”

Ling Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows, and her cold eyes glanced at her.

She was in a very depressed mood now, and she didn't have time to deal with the eunuchs' bites.

However, Manager Li is an old man in the Prince's Mansion and has been with her for more than ten years, so he always has to give Manager Li some face.

Ye Cheng's heart sank, listening to the prince's tone, he was afraid that he would be beaten up today.

He could see that Ling Xiaoyue was in a very depressed mood, perhaps related to the four Buddha statues in front of him.

Ye Cheng didn't answer Ling Xiaoyue's words directly, but asked, "Is Your Highness's troubles related to these four Buddha statues?" ”

"Huh? Even you can see it. This is a problem that the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin have given to this king. ”

Ling Xiaoyue smiled bitterly in her heart.

Now that her father is in poor health, she is in charge of the country and handles the government.

At today's court meeting, the envoys of the Jin State had a difficult problem, and none of the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty could answer it.

It is really detrimental to the prestige of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

She simply took the Buddha statue back to the prince's mansion and prepared to think overnight.

However, these four Buddha statues are exactly the same, which one is the most respected?

Ye Cheng said with a smile: "Your Highness, you might as well say it, the villain may have a way." ”

Manager Li sneered twice, and immediately sneered: "This is a problem made by the envoys of the Jin State, and the Manchu Dynasty can't solve it with civil and military affairs, can you little eunuch have a way?" ”

"If you don't let me try, how do you know I can't help it?" Ye Cheng sneered.

"If you have a way, we will cut off your head and make a stool for you to sit on." Mr. Li continued to speak in a weird way.

Ling Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and the ghost envoy said, "Since you have a way, you might as well try it." The question of the envoy of the Jin State is that if the Buddha statue is not smashed open, which of the four Buddha statues is the most valuable. ”

"It's as simple as that?" Ye Cheng smiled.

The era in which Ye Cheng lived in his previous life was an era of information explosion, and this problem was not difficult for him at all.

Moreover, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom said that he would not smash the Buddha statue, which was also a routine and deceptive, making ordinary people think that there were treasures in the Buddha statue.

"Hehe, do you think it's easy?"

Ling Xiaoyue gritted her small silver teeth and glared at Ye Cheng.

She didn't believe that Ye Cheng would be able to solve the puzzle at all.

"As long as His Highness finds a branch for the villain, the villain will be able to solve the puzzle immediately." Ye Cheng said.

"Get him a branch, and the king will see how he solves the puzzle."

Ling Xiaoyue commanded the eunuch beside her.

A moment later, a eunuch came back from outside with a broken willow stick.

Ye Cheng took the branch and walked to the middle of the four Buddha statues.

As soon as he entered, he noticed that the four Buddha statues had small holes in them.

By passing a branch through a hole in the statue, you can solve the puzzle.

I saw Ye Cheng walk in front of a Buddha statue, and put a branch into the small hole in the left ear of the Buddha statue, and the branch came out through the small hole in the right ear.

"This Buddha statue enters in the left ear and goes out in the right ear, and treats other people's words as the wind in the ear, which is obviously not the most valuable."

Ye Cheng said lightly.

When Ling Xiaoyue heard this, she was shocked, and her thoughts were suddenly opened.

His clear eyes were full of wonder.

Ye Cheng came to a Buddha statue again, still passing the branch through the left ear of the Buddha statue, but the branch came out of the mouth of the Buddha statue.

"This Buddha statue, what it hears, it will say, how can such a person be worthy of the trust of others? So it's not the most valuable either. ”

Ye Cheng continued.

Ling Xiaoyue was so shocked that her cherry mouth couldn't close.

How could she not have thought of such a simple question?

I saw Ye Cheng come to the third Buddha statue.

Unlike other Buddha statues, this Buddha statue does not have small holes on its body.

Ye Cheng patted the belly of this Buddha statue, and there was a thumping sound, and found that the belly of this Buddha statue was empty.

He smiled and said: "This Buddha statue pretends to be deaf and dumb, with an empty belly, obviously no talent to learn, symbolizing that those straw bales that have no goods in their stomachs can only pretend to be deaf and dumb." ”

Ling Xiaoyue was completely persuaded by Ye Cheng and nodded in agreement.

Finally, Ye Cheng walked in front of the last Buddha statue and pierced the branch through the left ear of the Buddha statue, and the branch went down the left ear to the belly of the Buddha statue.

Ye Cheng said: "This Buddha statue represents those who can rot what they hear in their stomachs. Comparatively, this Buddha statue is naturally the most valuable. ”

Ling Xiaoyue was stunned.

was completely impressed by Ye Cheng's explanation.

She was stunned.

No one in the Manchu Dynasty solved this puzzle, but he didn't expect it to be solved by a little eunuch beside him.

Now, Ling Xiaoyue took a closer look at it, and suddenly became enlightened, and she also felt that this puzzle was very simple.

But before Ye Cheng's guidance, Ling Xiaoyue looked at the mountains like a fog, and couldn't figure out whether she was alive or dead.

Ye Cheng's explanation was like seeing a fog in the clouds, and the mouth suddenly opened.

"Wonderful! It's wonderful! No one in the Manchu Dynasty came up with it, I didn't expect you, a little eunuch, to be able to crack it! ”

Ling Xiaoyue stroked her palms and smiled.

"The villain doesn't dare to take credit, it's all because the villain followed His Highness and learned a little wisdom from His Highness."

Ye Cheng was very modest and immediately slapped the prince on the back.

Years of experience in the workplace told him that at this time, he must not be proud of his credit, and he must give credit to the leader.

Ling Xiaoyue nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "By the way, what did you say just now?" ”

"Your Highness, you have to be the master of the old slave! This little eunuch bullied people and beat Father-in-law Xu to the point where he was so miserable that he was afraid that he would be bedridden for several months. It is really the tears of those who hear it, and the sadness of those who see it. ”

Mr. Li did not give up.

"This king knows about this. Since this father-in-law Xu can't handle things, he will let Ye Cheng serve as the deputy manager in the future. ”

Ling Xiaoyue also knew that these eunuchs were fighting openly and secretly in private, but she didn't have the leisure to know.

Since Ye Cheng has merit, he will naturally be rewarded.

When Mr. Li heard this, he was so shocked that his eyes were about to fall.

He sued in front of the prince this time, not only did he not rectify Ye Cheng's rabbit cub, but instead promoted him to the position of deputy chief manager.

The official position is only one grade lower than him.

"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, for your grace." Ye Cheng smiled in his heart and glanced coldly at Manager Li.

This old boy probably never dreamed that he would become the deputy head of the Prince's Mansion.

"Another reward of a thousand taels of silver."

Ling Xiaoyue was in a good mood and was not stingy with rewards.

And the news that Ye Cheng became the deputy head of the Prince's Mansion soon spread throughout the Prince's Mansion.

When Lin Yaoxue heard the news, she couldn't help but be surprised, "This Ye Cheng actually became the deputy manager?" ”
