Monthly pass]

Despite being mentally prepared, Wu Xian still twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard Chen Tang's shameless remarks, and his expression was more complicated and tortuous than the yarn ball. Everyone knows that gold, silver and money are good things, but who would talk about this thing? Even if he loves money to death, he should be reserved in his mouth, and even scolded him a few words to show his elegance and freedom from the world, which is different from ordinary people.

Chen Youli was fine, and she asked for money as soon as she opened 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 shame to talk about money all the time.

He asked, "Are you the king of the country, and you still lack money?"

Chen Tang said: "I'm almost crazy if 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, Brother Zhaode, when Kang Guo was founded, he was so poor that he wanted to 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?"

Only then did Wu Xian notice the material on Chen Tang's body.

It's not that expensive indeed.

Not only Chen Tang, but most of the civil and military officials under her tent were clean, and the clothes were mainly decorated with inconspicuous dark patterns, and they were filled with a simple atmosphere everywhere. This was completely different from the civil and military officials in the Gaoguo court.

Which minister who entered the high country and entered the officialdom has a weak family?

Even military generals with the secular stereotype that "five big and three thick" like beauty, let alone civil officials from aristocratic families?

Chen Tang kept his eyes on Wu Xian calmly.

She continued: "I can't help but shed tears for myself when I think about the history of entrepreneurship. 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 didn't understand the Ponzi scheme, and he could guess the meaning based on the context. He heard that Chen Tang was liquidating the batch of grain and grass in Jinli County.

Wu Xian reminded Chen Tang: "This situation was 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 grain and grass were burned in Gaoguo's territory. Beimo sent the 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 grain and grass were burned. Did these grains really burn? You and I are not children, I know it."

When she said the last sentence, her tone became chilled.

Wu Xian: “…”

Now, there is no point in quibbling.

He chose to remain silent.

Chen Tang expressed his sincere feelings: "We have all seen the tragic situation of hunger pillows, and have seen people who are on the dead end to eat. 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.

Short of money, short of food, short of everything.

Wu Xian closed his eyes and endured the swelling and pain in his temples.

"Since that's the case, if the 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, just 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 tricked: "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. 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 when you are 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 in control of his subordinates, the king and his ministers are disinterested, and his ministers are unwilling to even pay for him to redeem him.

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 family's 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 worry about my words."

Unfortunately, these words did not improve Wu Xian's face.

Because judging from Chen Tang's jokes, her attitude was very clear - she refused to negotiate! There was only one result of the battle between the two countries, that is, Kang State annexation of Gao State! No matter how many chips Gao State sent envoys to negotiate, it would be 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 about this? Could you just want to see what Wu looks like as a prisoner? Watch it for fun? Or do you hope to hear Wu beg you for mercy? If you want to kill and cut, you will listen to the emperor, 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 Gaoguo sending envoys to a trip."

No matter how far the high-ranking ministers of the country were, they really welcomed Wu Xian back.

Instead of wasting time to negotiate and pull, Wu Xian gave them a step directly, which saved them trouble and Chen Tang.

Wu Xian: “…”

Chen Tang was curious: "What do Brother Zhaode thinks 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 welcome him or not, he must pretend to be sincere and run for him on the surface. In this way, Chen Tang can use Wu Xian as a bargaining chip to make Gao Guo take the opportunity to attack. Once Wu Xian abdicates to his son, he becomes the Supreme King, and once the emperor and the minister, Gao Guo will be less afraid. After going through legal procedures, the Supreme King who abdicates and is deeply trapped in the enemy camp will die. No matter what angle is considered, this decision is not conducive to Chen Tang.

Wu Xian said again: "Or, do you have another conspiracy?"

Chen Tang wished he could swear to the sky: "I have been open and have no conspiracy in my life! How could Brother Zhaode guess me like this?"

Wu Xian: “…”

It was clearly a tense moment, but he smiled inexplicably, as if he heard some interesting jokes.

Shen Youli?

Be open-minded all 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. He would rather believe the matchmaker's broken mouth than Chen Youli's nonsense.

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.

So he is not the focus today.

Chen Tang still has a lot of things to be busy with.

"Have the prisoners counted it clearly?"

"How are our casualties?"

"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 these things are arranged, the battlefield will be cleaned up, the enemy's corpses are buried, and the people will be ordered to settle the bones of the fallen soldiers. They will bring them back together when the troops return to the court.

As for rewarding 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, Gong Xiqiu was the only one left in the tent, and I don’t know how long he had been waiting. Gong Xiqiu had never been able to hide his affairs when facing Chen Tang. Chen Tang knew at a glance that he had something to say, and she 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 on it, and his body was not found.

No one can be seen in life, no corpse can be seen in death.

Chen Tang guessed that he would probably run away.

But the Gongxiqiu brothers didn't take the initiative to speak up. I thought there was any problem: "Gongxiqiu, do you have something to do?"

Gong Xiqiu said: "Yes."

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 she could screen the speculations one by one, her destination 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 can there be secret passages here? It looks quite fresh." Chen Tang was still pretty tall, but Gong Xiqiu's size was very aggrieved. He could only squat on some sections of the road, and there were also damaged parts along the road. Seeing Gong Xiqiu's rough way, Chen Tang felt agitation and reminded, "You move more gently. If the secret passage collapses, bury you and me here alive, and see your elder brother won't beat you."
