Chapter 10901090: Do you know what loyalty is? (Part 2) [Please give me a monthly ticket]
Despite being mentally prepared, Wu Xian still twitched at the corner of his mouth when he actually heard Chen Tang''s shameless remarks, and his expression was more complicated and tortuous than the yarn ball. Everyone knows that gold, silver, money and money are good things, but who would talk about this thing? Even if you love money to death, you must be reserved in your mouth, and even scold a few words to show your elegance and freedom from the world, which is different from ordinary people.
Chen Youli is so good that she will ask for money as soon as she opens her mouth.
No matter how you say that, you are the lord of a country. Even if you become a prisoner, your true value is definitely not something that gold and silver can measure.
It is a disgrace to talk about money all the time.
He asked: "Are you the king of the country, are you still short of money?"
Chen Tang said, "I''m almost crazy when I lack it."
Wu Xian: “…”
Chen Tang continued to smile, not caring about the collapsed face of the daily man, and he bent his elbow to put on Wu Xian''s shoulder, with a very intimate posture: "To be honest with Brother Zhaode, when the founding of the State of Kang was really poor, I wish I could spend a penny in half. Even as the king of the country, I have no surplus in the whole year. From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, isn''t this called lack of money?"
Wu Xian then noticed the material on Chen Tang''s body.
It''s not that expensive.
Not only Chen Tang, most of the civil and military wears under her tent, and the clothes are mainly decorated with inconspicuous dark patterns, and they exudes a simple atmosphere everywhere. This is completely different from the civil and military officials in the Gaoguo court.
Which minister who entered the high country has a weak family background?
Even military generals with the secular stereotype as "five majors and three thick" prefer gorgeousness, let alone civil officials from aristocratic families?
Chen Tang calmly looked at Wu Xian.
She continued: "When I think about the history of entrepreneurship, I can''t help but shed tears for myself. Alas, I have worked hard for five or six years to give every household some surplus grain. The people in the country will not be hungry and bare all year round. The local grain warehouse is finally not a place where mice turn their heads when they see it. After a few years of savings, I was caught by someone in a Ponzi scheme."
Wu Xian''s eyes condensed.
He doesn''t understand Ponzi schemes, and he can guess the meaning based on the context. It was heard that Chen Tang was liquidating the batch of food and grass in Jinli County.
Wu Xian reminded Chen Tang: "This situation is not done by Gao Guo."
Could it be that Beimo set up a plan to cheat the food and grass?
Chen Tang nodded: "It is indeed not a Gaoguo set up a plan, but the food and grass were burned in Gaoguo''s territory. Beimo sent this batch of stolen goods to Gaoguo and then transported them back to Beimo under the name of a big merchant in Gaoguo''s territory. I contacted Brother Zhaode as soon as possible, but waited for the bad news that the food and grass were burned. Did these foods really get burned? You and I are not children, I know it."
Speaking of the last sentence, her tone became chilled.
Wu Xian: “…”
Now, there is no point in making excuses.
He chose to remain silent.
Chen Tang expressed his sincere feelings: "We have all seen the tragic situation of being hungry and being hungry. We have seen people who are on the dead end and eat with their children. You should know more than anyone else how difficult it is to make everyone not hungry, how difficult it is to save such a little home business..."
So, she is really poor.
Lack of money, food, and everything is short.
Wu Xian closed his eyes and endured the swelling and pain in his temples.
"Since that''s the case, if a wise man doesn''t say secret words, how much do you want?"
"Only children make choices, of course, adults want them all." Chen Tang burst out laughing and said with Wu Xian''s big eyes glaring at his big eyes, "If you want money and money, you don''t want much, the whole country''s financial resources are enough; if you want cities and land, you don''t want much, as long as every inch of land in Gaoguo! Others, such as Brother Zhaode''s life, it depends on whether you are willing to live."
Wu Xian recalled and realized that he was being played with: "Chen Youli, do you think I, Wu Zhaode, are you really a greedy person who is afraid of death?"
Chen Tang hurriedly waved his hand to signal Wu Xian to calm down.
"Brother Zhaode, don''t be upset." Her eyes were full of cunning, with a clear and clear mind that saw through everything, and her words were so mean that it made people give up. "I don''t mean to humiliate you, but the current situation - to put it bluntly, Brother Zhaode is probably given up. Even if I am willing to open the bargaining chips and let Gaoguo change you back, I will not be willing to open the low, and if you open the high, your ministers are afraid they will not want to."
Wu Xian said angrily: "No matter how bad I am, I am the lord of a country."
Where does it mean to be given up just by being given up?
Chen Tang said: "People seek benefits and avoid harm."
A sentence almost choked Wu Xian to death.
Starting from the word "interest", Wu Xian is indeed likely to be abandoned - instead of hurting his muscles and exchanging him back, it is better to support his son as the new master. It can not only reduce losses, but also save the face of loyal ministers and good generals. It can be said that it can kill two birds with one stone.
He understands the truth, but he just feels frustrated and refuses to accept reality.
If he admits it is equivalent to admitting that he is incompetent and the monarch and ministers are disinterested, and his ministers are unwilling to even pay for him to redeem it.
It would be better to kill Chen Tang than to admit this in front of him.
Wu Xian fell into silence again.
Seeing that Wu Xian''s face was as good as the bottom of the pot, Chen Tang called him without sincerity: "Of course, these are all my words. There are always loyal people in this world who value morality and neglect interests. There is no absolute in everything, and Brother Zhaode doesn''t have to rest assured about my words."
Unfortunately, these words did not improve Wu Xian''s face.
Because judging from Chen Tang’s jokes, her attitude is very clear - she refuses to negotiate! There can only be one result of the battle between the two countries, that is, Kang State annexation of Gao State! No matter how many chips are issued by Gao Guo, no matter how many envoys are sent to negotiate, it is useless.
After clarifying these, Wu Xian looked at Chen Tang with more complicated eyes: "... Since you have made a decision, you are determined to fight to the end and not discuss with Gao Guo, why should you tell Wu this? Could it be that you want to see what Wu looks like as a prisoner? Watch it for fun? Or do you hope to hear Wu beg you for survival? If you want to kill and cut, you will be obeyed, and there is no need to humiliate others like this!"
"No, no, no, I''m talking about this to Brother Zhaode, not for these." Chen Tang''s smile added a little cunning, "I want to persuade Brother Zhaode, it''s better to write an edict to pass the throne and give the lord to any child, so as to avoid the Gaoguo sending envoys to a trip."
The ministers of the high country did not really welcome Wu Xian back.
Instead of wasting time to negotiate and pull, Wu Xian gave them a step directly. They were all easy to deal with and Chen Tang was worry-free.
Wu Xian: “…”
Chen Tang was curious: "What do you think of me like this?"
Wu Xian said bluntly: "It depends on whether you have brain disease."
Did Chen Youli make this decision with her butt?
Kang Guowen didn’t even stop him?
As long as Wu Xian is still the legitimate king of Gao Guo, no matter whether Gao Guo’s civil and military sincerely welcomes him or not, he must pretend to be sincere on the surface and run for him. In this way, Chen Tang could use Wu Xian as a bargaining chip to make Gao Guo take the opportunity to attack the mouse. Once Wu Xian abdicated to his son, he became the supreme king, and once the emperor and his ministers, Gao Guo would be less afraid. After going through legal procedures, the Supreme King who abdicated and was deeply trapped in the enemy camp, died if he died. No matter what angle you consider, this decision is not conducive to Chen Tang.
Wu Xian said again: "Or, do you have another conspiracy?"
Chen Tang wished he could swear with three fingers: "I have been open and have no conspiracy in my life! How could Brother Zhaode guess me like this?"
Wu Xian: “…”
It was obviously a tense moment, but he smiled inexplicably, as if he heard some interesting jokes.
Chen Youli?
Be open-minded throughout your life?
Although this guy is beautiful, he is too thick-skinned.
Although Chen Tang''s proposal made him moved, Wu Xian did not agree easily. He had to think about the conspiracy. I would rather believe the matchmaker''s broken mouth than the nonsense of Chen Youli.
Wu Xian was taken down, and Chen Tang had no choice but to touch his forehead and complained: "...Wu Zhaode used it so hard when he should be careful, but when he should not be careful, he put it in reverse."
I just wanted to surprise Mei Jinghe.
Why didn’t Wu Xian fulfill her wish?
Obviously, Wu Xian has no adult beauty.
He is not the focus today.
Chen Tang still has a lot of things to be busy with.
"Have the prisoners clearly counted?"
"What medicinal materials are missing in the wounded barracks?"
These are all things that Chen Tang needs to ask about, especially the latter item, life is at stake, and the scarce medicinal materials need to be supplemented with Lin Feng. After arranging these things, we will clean up the battlefield, burn and bury the enemy''s corpses, and order people to settle the bones of the fallen soldiers. We brought it back together when the troops returned to the court.
As for rewards on merits?
This matter is arranged at the end.
Chen Tang discussed with everyone and finished his discussion, and the sky outside the tent was dark.
Looking up again, there was only Gong Xiqiu left in the tent, and I don’t know how long I had been waiting. When Gong Xiqiu faced Chen Tang, he could not hide his things. Chen Tang knew at a glance that he had something to say, and she also happened to have something to ask - counting the list of high-level prisoners of war in the high country, there was no name of the national teacher of the Immortal Life Sect, and his body was not found.
No one can be seen in life, and no corpse can be seen in death.
Chen Tang guessed that he was probably running away.
But the brothers Gong Xiqiu did not take the initiative to speak up. I thought there was still something wrong with it: "Gong Xiqiu, do you have something to do?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "Yeah."
Chen Tang put down his official duties and stood up and said, "Lead the way."
After a little explanation of the personal guard, Chen Tang followed Gong Xiqiu out of the camp. Along the way, countless speculations emerged in her mind. Before we could even screen the speculations one by one, the destination has arrived.
Chen Tang turned his head and looked at the camp not far away.
Surprised: "So close?"
It is indeed very close, just below the battlefield where the two countries are fighting.
"How come there are secret passages here? It looks quite fresh." Chen Tang was pretty tall, but Gong Xiqiu''s figure was very aggrieved. He could only squat on some sections of the road, and there were still damaged parts along the road. Seeing Gong Xichou leading the way, Chen Tang felt upset and reminded, "You move more gently. If the secretly stumbles, bury you and me here alive, let''s see if your elder brother doesn''t slap."
Gongxi Qiu took off the sand and soil that fell on his head.
He said casually: "He can''t get it. If we are buried, he will definitely be buried too, buried deeper than us."
Chen Tang: “…”
She observed the shape of the tunnel: "This secret passage does not seem to be dug out by a human, but rather it seems to be a crawling animal."
"Mama has good eyesight, it is my bravery totem."
Chen Tang: "…What''s going on?"
Gong Xichou said: "What else can happen? Isn''t the elder brother chasing that old thing? The old thing is simply a loach, and he is not slim. He finally set up a formation to trap him and was about to catch a turtle in a jar. Who knew that he would be intercepted by Wei Cheng halfway..."
Chen Tang frowned worriedly and said, "Has Wei Cheng been sealed?"
Gong Xiqiu raised his hand and pointed above: "In this battle, all the dead on the ground will catch up with those who sleep on the ground. Wei Cheng feeds on resentment and death energy. How useful can the seals in a hurry be? If Mama hadn''t taken action to save people in the middle of the journey, what would have been the only one who ran out would have been Wei Cheng''s martial arts incarnation, but his original deity. These twenty-level marquises are really something that people hate."
I think he is a genius, and he has always disgusted enemies in his life.
In my early years, I didn’t suffer much in Tang Guo’s account.
The more you improve your strength, the more you lose.
The enemy I met was either the incarnation of the eighteenth-class grand chief and the twenty-sixth-class Chehou who had been enlightened by Gong Cheng, or the twenty-sixth-class Chehou''s original deity. It made him in danger several times!
Gong Xiqiu always felt that he had been beaten up.
When I thought of Wei Cheng, I felt even more angry.
Chen Tang agreed with Gong Xiqiu''s evaluation. The twenty-six-class Chehou who stood on the side of the enemy was indeed disgusted by people. If Weicheng''s hidden danger is not solved, it will be a hidden danger after all: "Can Weicheng be liberated?"
The song "Shun Crossing" can really help the soul. Weicheng has nothing to do with living people. If she could be saved, she would be willing to let Chen Tang hold a funeral for Wei Cheng for 49 days.
Wei Cheng refused to be liberated, so she fisted and kicked again.
"You want to save me?"
Chen Tang: “…”
In the darkness, before she could hear Gong Xiqiu''s answer, she first heard a strange male voice, whose owner claimed to be Wei Cheng.
Well, that is the goal she wants to save.
Gong Xiqiu''s answer came slowly.
"It is not necessary to save him at this moment."
Chen Tang quickly understood why it was unnecessary.
If she had a system that could see everyone''s position, then the Wei Cheng she saw at this moment would definitely be a neutral yellow name!
Wei Cheng, who was killed by life not long ago, was standing at the corner of the secret passage, and I don’t know how much he heard Chen Tang.
Chen Tang''s expression changed for only a moment, and he instantly recovered from calmness.
She did not doubt that Gongxiqiu would harm her.
so-
Either this Gongxiqiu is fake;
Either Wei Cheng is crazy.
Chen Tang chose the latter.
Wei Cheng in front of him is not the original deity, but the incarnation of Wei Cheng. It was not even wearing martial armor and had no powerful tools in its hands.
Seeing that Chen Tang did not attack rashly, Wei Cheng nodded.
Commented: "Well, calm, there is something."
Chen Tang frowned: "What''s going on?"
Gong Xiqiu was not good at eloquence, so he explained it clearly that it was too embarrassing for him. He could only wait for Chen Tang to see everything himself. If he had to summarize, he could only think of one sentence: "Their uncle and nephew have turned against each other."
Chen Tang paused in shock: "Have you turned against you?"
Wei Cheng in front of him made a warning angrily.
Glimpsed in front of him?
"You two think I am the air?" If you weren''t concerned, I really wanted to bury these three **** here to avoid being frustrated.
Gong Xiqiu snorted, obviously not afraid.
Chen Tang: “…”
When he was so close to his face, he didn’t let Wei Cheng kill him?
It seems that it is true that the uncle and nephew rebelled.
Chen Tang''s heart moved and he pondered about the real reason why the uncle and nephew rebelled - both of them were people with strength at the top of the pyramid, and there was no problem of uneven distribution of interests, because as long as they thought, they could get as much interests as they could. For such people, the only way to make them go against the goal is to conflict with ideas and morality.
But they have gone through more than two hundred years of ups and downs, and they will not wait until now if they really have a conflict of ideas and morality, so-
Chen Tang also looked wide-eyed.
"Is the person who worked with the Gods back then your uncle?"
