The fat man didn't care about this little money, and he didn't have any filial piety towards the emperor Li Wanjiang.
He is thinking about the treasure below. If he doesn't come to see it in person every day, he won't always be at ease, so sending candy water is just an excuse. Hunting for the treasure is the purpose.
Because there are forbidden troops guarding the surroundings, he, the fat man, can't get in, so he can only use this little trick...
There is another little money-lover, Ling'er, who is worried about the treasure. There is actually no problem for Ling'er to come. Speaking of which, the two chief managers of the Imperial Envoy are her brothers, so who can stop her?
It's just that she, a little girl, has no reason to appear here, so Xiao Chen doesn't allow her to come.
Then if you don’t come during the day, you can always come at night, right?
With her unparalleled lightness skills, she is faster than ghosts. Who can see her? The night shift construction workers were all brothers from the civil engineering battalion, and the civilian men who took the initiative to come to work were, in all likelihood, actually brothers from the civil engineering battalion from other troops from Yanyun...
With the two of them looking after him day and night, and Yuan Ren, who was loyal to his duties and even lived directly on the construction site, sitting here, Xiao Chen felt relieved.
After Lin Dongyang was acquitted, he behaved extremely low-key. Apart from entering the palace to see the emperor to express his gratitude, he did not meet anyone else, not even Xiao Chen.
Anyone who visits his home says they have just been released from prison and are not feeling well.
On the third day after coming out, I quietly left Fengyang with my mother and family, and went straight to Langya to take office. Except for my son Lin Qi, no one else went to see him off.
After this prison sentence, Lin Dongyang also became a lonely minister like Zhao Yu, no one but the emperor!
Lin Qi felt that since his father was missing, he should go and meet the young prince Li Qiu and brother Xiao Chen, right?
It seems that it would be too rude for them to leave without saying hello even if they are the two of them who strongly advocated for your father to come out and recommended you to be the governor of Langya County?
Lin Dongyang said who is good to me and who is bad to me, how can I still keep track of you and me? Besides, you only need to keep this kind of kindness in your heart, and there is no need to do any superficial things!
My son, you have grown up now, and you have become a high-ranking doctor of the fifth grade. Speaking of which, when you and I were your age, we had not yet passed the examination!
You are young and have suddenly risen to a high position...I won't teach you how to act as a father. I guess you have your own ideas in your heart.
I don’t know what the future will be like if you follow the young prince Li Qiu, but since you have done it, you will do it to the end!
As for Xiao Chen, you just need to remember that he is a person worth trusting with your life. It is up to you to decide how to get along with him...
Lin Zirui and Liu Haishan have lived in Fengyang for more than ten days, and there has been no news from Xiao Chen. I heard that he is currently busy building the emperor's mausoleum, and it seems that he can't take care of us for a while. indivual……
Maybe that's what he said at the time, or maybe he had forgotten about us a long time ago.
If it really doesn't work, we can just come and ask for resignation. Staying here all the time is not an option. Before the two of them could decide whether to go and resign, Xiao Chen suddenly sent someone to summon them.
"You two are not interesting enough. I am so busy that I have no time to visit you. Why don't you come to see me?" Xiao Chen said coquettishly when he saw the two of them.
"The Marquis is as deep as the sea. We two destitute people would not dare to visit easily." Liu Haishan said.
"Nonsense!" Xiao Chen said, "You two guys thought I had forgotten you, right?"
"I really don't dare to deceive you, Boss Xiao." Lin Zirui said with a smile, "Isn't that what you think? If your boss doesn't invite us today, we will come to ask you to resign. Migui in the capital, The eunuch is cash-strapped, so he really can't stay here for long."
"Well, finally you guys know how to come and ask me to resign. If you leave without saying goodbye, we brothers won't have to do anything in the future!" Xiao Chen said, "I came to you today to treat you to a drink. Let's go."
The two of them looked at each other and thought, "Your boss came to us just to drink?"
Then there's no need to go out. Don't you think there's no meat and wine in your Lord Marquis's house?
But there was no need to ask more questions, so we had to follow Xiao Chen out. They didn't ride horses, and Xiao Chen didn't ask anyone to prepare the horses. He said that the weather was getting better, so we might as well go on foot. The spring was just right, and it would be nice to enjoy the scenery on the way... …
Xiao Chen passed by many good restaurants and ignored them. He just talked to the two of them, and they were all about the navy.
"Boss Xiao, which restaurant are we going to? We've been walking for half an hour and we haven't arrived yet?" Liu Haishan's stomach growled with hunger after walking for so long.
"Which restaurant are you going to? You don't know how expensive the restaurants in Fengyang are. I'm going to take you to eat for free because someone is treating me. Isn't it also saving money?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Oh... but you don't know whose house you are going to? It would be awkward if you don't know them." Lin Zirui said.
"You really don't even know each other, but we got to know each other after having a meal together. We are all good friends, and you don't need to see each other outside." Xiao Chen said.
It doesn't matter if he is a good friend of Boss Xiao, but how can we get to the former Prince's East Palace and the current Xuanping Palace by walking?
Probably passing by.
However, Xiao Chen held his head high and walked straight to the door of the palace. When the palace guards at the door saw him, they hurried forward to salute and say hello, saying that the prince has been waiting for a long time. If the prince doesn't come, they will send someone to hurry. Why don't you ride a horse? Are you here on foot?
These two are... Oh, General Lin, General Liu, I have admired you for a long time, please come in quickly!
Damn it, it turned out to be Prince Xuanping’s treat?
Lin Zirui and Liu Haishan were busy returning gifts while secretly scolding Boss Xiao for not being interesting enough. You should have told me earlier, right?
If we knew you were bringing us to someone else’s palace to eat for free, we wouldn’t come even if you beat us to death!
After all, he was still the commander of the navy before, but now he is just a white man. What will he eat after meeting the prince?
You're not even qualified to stand by and wait on me!
But now that we've entered the door, we can't just turn around and run, right?
I could only bite the bullet and walk in with Xiao Chen.
"Hahaha, these two are Haishan and Zirui, right?" Li Qiu stood at the door to greet him. When he saw Xiao Chen coming with the two of them, he smiled brightly and said with a hearty smile, "Quickly excuse yourself, this is my family's banquet. It’s not like the court… Besides, you two don’t have any official positions, so why are you worshiping me?”
The two of them had just stood up when another handsome young man smiled and said, "I have always heard Mr. Xiao mention you two. When we meet today, it turns out that the general is so powerful that he lives up to his reputation!"
"Oh, this is Lin Qi, a doctor in the Ministry of War." Li Qiu introduced to them.
The two of them quickly knelt down on the ground. Before they could salute, Lin Qi came over and helped them up with his own hands. He said with a smile, "The prince doesn't accept your courtesy, but you come to worship me. This is not to impress me." Will the medicine make the prince’s face look ugly?”
Only then did the two of them realize that this young man was actually Lin Qi, the son of Lin Dongyang, the number one scholar in this subject...
The upstart of the imperial court, the future boss, the emperor's perfect little celebrity!
