Under Wen Chen's operation, Dao Jiu returned to Lincheng with one million taels of silver and fifty children who were forcibly kidnapped by one-eyed cows.

Of course, along with them, there is also the head of Xiang Shang, who killed Yun Zhongzi and Xiao Di's one-eyed cow!

Outside the Thousand Crane Palace, tonight is the dinner party set up by the king of Zhennan for Dulun, the prince of Dongchang Factory, and it is also a good day for the holy concubine, Princess Liyang to choose Ruyi Langjun from the two princes!

Wen Chen stood at the front of the long dragon outside the hall, closed his eyes and recuperated, waiting to enter the hall.

In front of another team not far away, the bearded Wen Yue was dressed in red brocade, beaming with joy and smiling to greet the guests.

He received his father's order earlier, tonight's civil and military competition is just a formality, and the eldest brother Wen Guan has no intention of competing with him for the princess, he Wen Yue is already a sure horse master!

When I thought of Liyang's fairy-like face and bumpy figure, the bearded man couldn't close his mouth with joy!

From time to time, he snorted provocatively at Wen Chen's side, where is the iron-eating beast you trained? What about your CPR?

Is it easy to make?

In the end, isn't the princess still Lao Tzu?

It's life-threatening! Lao Tzu was born to be a colt!

Tu Sanqian, who was standing next to him, saw the bearded villain's triumphant face, and he was angry, but the lord himself looked calm and didn't care at all.

"Lord, you asked the big boss to transport the silver back, how can we get out?"

Wen Chen didn't raise his eyelids, and said softly, "Return the promised interest and principal to them, won't we get out?" ”

"Huh?" The bearded man was stunned, "The lord really plans to give them silver?" ”

"Isn't that a big deal?"

Although Estuary City is rich, it can't stand being built like this!

Ning Ya, who was pretending to be a scholar on the side, chuckled, "In the book written by His Royal Highness, I have read about relevant cases, this is called a Ponzi scheme. ”

"The first batch of principal and interest must be repaid, and the silver we want to earn is the additional investment of the prince and those generals, in layman's terms, it is to put a long line and catch a big fish!"

"It's just a little strange in the next place, since this plan was conceived by His Highness himself, why should it be named after Ponzi?"

The corners of Wen Chen's mouth were slightly hooked, and he half-jokingly said, "Do bad things...... Of course, you can't leave your real name, that's the bottom line for bad guys! ”

Tu Sanqian scratched his head on the side, "What additional investment?" What fishing? Why can't Lao Tzu understand at all? ”

Ning Ya shook his head helplessly, "Brother Tu only needs to know that this so-called financial management is just a trap designed by His Royal Highness, a reason to kill a cow, and a means to shorten the economy of the city!" ”

Tu Sanqian nodded thoughtfully, but these things are not something that he should consider as a rough person.

Sometimes Ning Ya really admires Wen Chen's five-body throw, it stands to reason that in the Zhennan Palace, even if Wen Chen is appointed as the general of Tiance, it is impossible for him to kill the beloved general who has followed the king of Zhennan for many years under Wen Yuli's nose just by relying on his own words!

But this thing really happened, and it was Wen Yuli's own willing hand!

Even now that I think about it, I feel very incredible!

But everything seems to be expected, Wen Yuli is a heartless person, playing with scheming all his life, and the most important thing is not emotion, but the pros and cons.

This is the advantage of his ability to control the three southeastern states, and it is also his fatal shortcoming!

Those who like to weigh the pros and cons are most likely to be deceived by sudden huge benefits, and Wen Chen also took advantage of his psychology to succeed effortlessly and easily!

The sky was getting dark, and as the little eunuch at the door announced his entry into the hall, everyone also walked into the Thousand Cranes Hall one after another and sat down one by one.

In the front row on the left, sitting in turn are Princess Liyang and the old eunuch Du Lun.

Today's Liyang is still wearing a plain skirt, but he doesn't look very happy, and he keeps his face tight, but the factory master is left and right, and he is happy to talk to others.

Wen Chen was the first to sit on the right side of the banquet, and the second sat was Lu Youzhi, a military advisor who had not shown his face for many days.

As soon as Ning Ya entered the door, he lowered his head and secretly looked at the old eunuch opposite, so nervous that his forehead was sweating.

Wen Chen seemed to feel the tremor coming from the young man's body, and sighed helplessly, this kid is good at everything, his brain is enough, and his courage is not small, but his psychological quality is too poor, and he will have to exercise more in the future.

Lu Youzhi on the table next to him looked a little haggard, didn't say a word, and before he could serve the food, he drank the stuffy wine alone.

Seeing this, Wen Chen picked up his wine glass and nodded to the side, "Mr. Lu, this king toasts you." ”

Lu Youzhi squeezed out a smile on his face and nodded in response.

But when Wen Chen poured the wine into his mouth, he found that something was wrong, put down the wine glass suddenly, picked up the wine jug on the table and shook it, looking puzzled.

"Your Highness the Sea King, what's the matter? Is it the lack of alcohol and appetite? Lu Youzhi asked curiously.

Wen Chen frowned, "This is not wine, this is water......"

Lao Lu was stunned for a moment, took the wine jug and sniffed it under his nose, the wine was fragrant, no problem!

poured another glass and took a sip, it was indeed the Huanbo wine treasured in the prince's mansion.

"Isn't His Royal Highness the Prince infected with the wind cold recently, and he can't taste the taste of this wine?" Lu Youzhi said with a smile.

Wen Chen frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of it for a while, so he had to laugh and deal with it casually.

Unintentionally looked up, and saw Liyang, who was sitting opposite, looking at him with a resentful face, his eyes were very aggrieved.

What are you doing!

Isn't it just to kiss you and touch a few handfuls, and it's to save your life, so you need it......

You feel that you are at a loss, and I don't take advantage of it! That was my first kiss in a month, be content!

So, Wen Chen deliberately avoided his gaze, lowered his head and continued to play with the sachet he was carrying.

Wen Yuli didn't let everyone wait long, and after a while, he and Concubine Chen both entered the main hall and sat on the throne.

After a boring opening statement, the prelude to the civil and military competition between the two princes was unveiled.

Wen Yuli looked at the two sons standing in the middle below and nodded with satisfaction.

Compared with the bearded man who attended in full costume, Wen Guan's outfit was not so conspicuous, dressed as a scholar, and his temperament was gentle and elegant.

"Your Royal Highness, can you start?" Zhennan Dynasty opened his mouth to ask Liyang below.

Li Yang glared at Wen Chen on the other side with some reluctance, and stopped talking, but finally nodded.

The two who received the order looked at each other and smiled, and separated from the left and right.

Wen Guan was the same as usual, with a proud face, "Second brother, I have admired Her Royal Highness the princess for a long time, and I won't show mercy to my subordinates later!" ”

The bearded man sneered, "Big brother, just let the horse come!" ”

Wen Chen on the side couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, damn it, do you think this is a draft? Still talking harshly before the game?

Do you need to cry to everyone about your tragic background later?

At this time, I heard the boss Wen Guan take a step and said seriously, "Second brother, eldest brother, I have been meditating for many days, and I occasionally got a five-element couplet in my dream, if you can make this couplet, I will bow down!" ”

The bearded Wen Yue's face turned grim, "Listen up!" ”

Wen Chen was stunned when he heard this,? Wasn't the Five Elements Union a patent of Lao Tzu when he was in Qingcheng? How did it become a chance in your dreams?

Wrong wrong......

Maybe it's not a couplet, but I think about it too much.

Then I saw Wen Guan say in a loud voice: "Smoke lock pond willow!" ”
