After bidding farewell to Li Wanyun and returning to his residence, he saw two Burmese envoys, one fat and one thin, waiting for a long time. When he came back, they were as happy as a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Why are you looking so panicked? What happened?" Xiao Chen was startled when he saw the two of them looking nervous.
"Master Xiao, the ten beauties our King Burma gave to King Zhongcheng were returned by him!" the fat messenger said hurriedly.
"Mr. Xiao, you also know that those ten beauties were all carefully selected. They are beautiful and talented... but I don't know why the prince doesn't like it? I'm afraid he blames us for being reckless!" said the thin messenger! .
"Oh, so that's what happened. Maybe the prince is worried, and that's normal." Xiao Chen didn't take it seriously.
"But they have all accepted the beauties given to the other generals. If the prince is concerned about this, they will never dare to accept it, right?" said the fat messenger.
"We're just afraid that the prince is dissatisfied with those beauties and will blame it on our King Burma, but that's not good either." The Thin Messenger said.
"No, who is the prince? How can he be offended by such a trivial matter!" Xiao Chen felt that they were worrying too much.
However, the two of them were not at ease anyway, and kept begging Xiao Chen to help find out the news and find out what was going on?
"Okay, I got it, I'll give you an accurate message tomorrow." Xiao Chen agreed immediately. This little thing is easy. You can just ask Li Wanyun tomorrow.
After sending the two of them away, they went in to pay their respects to Liu Ruyun.
After telling Liu Ruyun about Li Wanyun's rejection of beautiful women, it felt strange.
"Keke, I told my father and the others not to give Li Wanyun beautiful women away, but they refused to listen. Now that I have hit a snag, who do I blame?" Liu Ruyun covered her mouth and giggled.
"Why? I see that all those beauties have beautiful faces. Even if I saw it, I would be tempted. How about the prince who has been in the army for a long time?" Xiao Chen himself was lustful and thought that everyone was like him. .
But in fact, he was right. In theory, all men are lustful.
Just like what the famous martial arts novelist said.
There may be a few men in the world who don't eat, but there are almost no men who are not lustful!
"Hmph, you are so greedy! You said you like that naughty hooves? I'll get it for you right now!" Liu Ruyun said bitterly.
"Don't make trouble! I'm a eunuch and I don't like women." Xiao Chen smiled shyly.
"Li Wanyun doesn't like women either." Liu Ruyun said suddenly.
"Ah? Damn it, can't you? Could it be that Li Wanyun is also a eunuch!" Xiao Chen's surprise was truly extraordinary!
No wonder he is so jealous of me and even considers him a close friend...
"Hey, what are you talking about? Keep your voice down! How could Li Wanyun be a eunuch? He just likes men. What he likes is Duanmu Nanfeng." Liu Ruyun lowered his voice.
"Damn it! It turns out that the prince has a habit of cutting off his sleeves!" Xiao Chen couldn't help shouting again.
If that were the case, then everything would be explained!
No wonder Li Wanyun is so kind to him, he is a close friend, he appreciates him, he trusts him, and he loves him.
But it's all because of Duanmu Nanfeng's face!
Needless to say, Duanmu Nanfeng must have sent a letter to ask Li Wanyun to take care of him, so Li Wanyun would remind him when he was crossing the river before, and he would not even hesitate to reveal the emperor's intentions to him.
I just told him so many personal and sincere words...
It turns out that Li Wanyun just loves the house and the bird!
The south wind is the house, and I am the crow.
Damn, the name Nanfeng is quite meaningful, it turns out...
"This is a top-secret matter. Not many people in the world know about it, not even the emperor. Don't go out and talk nonsense, or you may lose your head!" Liu Ruyun warned Xiao Chen.
"Then how did you know?" Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment.
"Haha, I know a lot of things. Nothing can be hidden from my eyes and ears. You kid, please be more careful in the future, but don't do anything that can't be done to me behind my back." Liu Ruyun narrowed her eyes. , a mysterious look.
"Hmph, I'm afraid it was the spies you planted around Li Wanyun who told you, right? I'll talk to Li Wanyun tomorrow and ask him to clean up the suspicious people around him." Xiao Chen guessed eight or nine in a flash of his mind. Not far from ten.
Li Wanyun is stationed in Jiuxi, which directly poses a threat to Myanmar. Myanmar will definitely send many spies over.
They can't spy on top-secret military information. I'm afraid they can still spy on this kind of thing, and it seems that Li Wanyun didn't hide it deliberately.
It’s just that no one who knows knows dares to tell.
The King of Burma must have known about it, but he still sent several beauties to Li Wanyun on purpose. This is called committing a crime knowingly, trying to hide it, covering people's ears and eyes, and being a taboo for the venerable...
To put it bluntly, the King of Burma knew clearly but pretended not to know, but the two envoys really did not know.
So whether it's a world of war or a confrontation between two countries, it's not just about fighting and killing, it's more about human relations!
"You are such a cunning and hateful slave!" Liu Ruyun rushed over fiercely, claiming that he would fight with Xiao Chen for his life, "Let's see if I don't bite you to death!"
But the fierce biting did not happen, because Xiao Chen rarely became furious.
It's not his fault. All he could think about was Li Wanyun and Duanmu Nanfeng. The more he said he didn't think about it, the more unbearable scenes appeared...
He lost all interest.
"Trash slave, what use are you really for?" An angry Liu Ruyun kicked him out.
The return trip went smoothly, except that the traveling speed was relatively slow because there was an extra cumbersome mule and horse team. The things on the car were not only expensive, but also heavy...
Li Wanyun was really interesting. In order to protect Xiao Chen's gold and silver treasures from being lost on the road, he even sent a team of elite cavalry to protect them in the name of protecting the Burmese envoys.
If such a big thing happened in Burma, Li Wanjiang must be given an explanation. Therefore, the Burmese king sent a high-level envoy group of more than a dozen people to the Great Zhou Dynasty to meet with Li Wanjiang and explain the origin of the whole matter.
Naturally, I also brought a lot of treasures to show my sincerity.
Not long after arriving at Weizhou County, he was still stationed in Fenzhu County for rest.
The prefect Chen Zi'ang and the guard Lin Yue and others had a close friendship with Xiao Chen who had fought side by side, so when they met this time, they were particularly affectionate.
After the routine banquet, Xiao Chen left the two of them to drink tea and chat.
When asked about the situation of the refugees, Chen Ziang said that thanks to Mr. Xiao's money, thousands of refugees were able to survive. Now that the floods have receded, everyone has returned to their hometowns. It is still early in the season and they can still catch up with planting the second crop of crops.
I did not give them all the money your Lord gave me. Instead, I sent people to Jiangnan County to buy some grain seeds, and purchased some cattle nearby, and distributed them to them in proportion to their head, so that they could start working as soon as they returned. Cultivation was carried out.
This is why teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish...
