Qiao Chengyun didn't dare to be dissatisfied when he saw Liu Mingzhi and the others teasing each other. He could only nod and smile in apology from time to time.
Liu Mingzhi straightened his expression and looked at Qiao Chengyun with a faint smile: "Shopkeeper Qiao, although I know from what you said that you really have nothing to do with this matter, after all, it is your caravan that is transporting this batch of contraband. The goods, what do you think should be done?"
Qiao Chengyun's face suddenly became bitter, and he looked at Liu Mingzhi with a frown: "Sir, since you brought the grassroots here, you must have other intentions. As long as you can redeem your sins, the grassroots will definitely die."
Liu Mingzhi and the others looked at each other in surprise. It turned out that Qiao Chengyun was not so useless under his fat and timid appearance. As expected, those who have the courage to do this are smart and careful people.
The difference is only in the size of courage.
Although Qiao Chengyun behaved submissively in front of Liu Mingzhi, it was just because he was caught.
Liu Mingzhi blew his tea and glanced at Qiao Chengyun: "Shopkeeper Qiao is quite an all-rounder!"
Qiao Chengyun smiled bitterly: "Sir, it is human nature for ordinary people to fear death. Since they can be useful to you, they will definitely try their best to help you to atone for your sins!"
Liu Mingzhi and Song Qing looked at each other and nodded slightly. Song Qing stood up and waved to Shopkeeper Qiao: "You come with me, General. As long as this matter is settled, you can leave. The Commander-in-Chief also has nothing to do with the matter of privately transporting iron tire bows. You can forget about it!"
Qiao Chengyun looked at Liu Mingzhi hesitantly. It seemed that he still believed in the kind-hearted Young Master Liu.
"Don't worry, Vice Admiral Song means what I mean!"
"Yes, yes, the common people resign!"
After Song Qing left with Qiao Chengyun, Liu Mingzhi looked at Han Peng who was standing aside: "General Han, how are you? Is there any movement from those Jin people?"
Han Peng shook his head helplessly: "I have been silent since I was imprisoned in the prison cell, and the food and drink prepared by my brother have also not been touched!"
"Bring over Shopkeeper Jin and the middle-aged man. He is the real contact with the White Lotus Sect. Once we deal with him, we can quickly handle the White Lotus Sect's affairs!"
After half a stick of incense, Liu Mingzhi frowned and looked at the middle-aged Jin State man standing in front of him and slowly stood up: "This is not the attitude of a prisoner!"
"you....."
Shopkeeper Jin glared at Liu Mingzhi and gritted his teeth!
The middle-aged man raised his hand. Shopkeeper Jin stepped aside angrily, but his eyes clearly showed his unconvinced attitude.
"Liu Mingzhi, the chief envoy to Dalong in the Kingdom of Jin, is known as the Confucian Commander in White?"
"Bold! You actually called the commander by his first name!"
When Han Peng heard that the middle-aged man dared to call Liu Mingzhi such a name, the horizontal knife on his waist suddenly unsheathed, and he looked at the middle-aged man with sharp eyes and glared at him.
"Do you know Mr. Liu?"
The middle-aged man smiled lightly and opened the hem of his clothes to reveal a gold medal: "Master Liu, can you recognize what I have on my waist?"
The middle-aged man looked a little strange, looking at Liu Mingzhi's frowning expression with amusement.
Liu Mingzhi stretched out his hand: "How about borrowing it for a look?"
"sure!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took off his belt card and threw it to Liu Mingzhi, without any panic feeling of being a prisoner.
"Wan Yan!"
Looking at the gold inscriptions and Chinese characters on the gold medal, Liu Mingzhi gently read out these two words.
With a complicated expression, he walked to the chair and sat down. Liu Mingzhi winked at Cheng Kai and the others: "General Cheng, please wait outside the tent first. You are not allowed to enter without my order!"
"Commander, this thief is very skilled. Your safety is in danger!"
"It doesn't matter, I have my own countermeasures. You can retreat with peace of mind!"
"Yes, Commander, please be careful, I will be waiting for you to leave!"
There were only three people left in the big tent. Liu Mingzhi put the gold medal on the table and stared at the middle-aged man quietly: "What's your surname?"
"Wanyan is awesome!"
Liu Mingzhi's face changed sharply and he looked at Wanyan Chiezha in disbelief: "Emperor Jin is so courageous. He only has tens of thousands of troops to be escorted by a prince of the current dynasty. The Queen thinks too highly of the people of the White Lotus Sect. Bar!"
Wanyan Chizha sat directly on a chair to the side and poured a cup of tea without any courtesy. "Your Majesty said that you used to call her Wanyan. I didn't expect that this king would hear such hostile words from Emperor Jin today." As for the title, I wonder what my good niece would think if she heard it, if it’s Luo Yue... forget it, I don’t know what Master Liu plans to do with me!"
Liu Mingzhi suddenly had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and even more so with a hint of panic. How many people knew about his affair with Wanyan.
First there was the King of Huainan, Li Yugang, and now there is the King of Jin, Wanyan Chiezha. There are only two of them that he knows, and both of them have identities that cannot be underestimated.
Wan Yan, Wan Yan, what on earth is going on? Could it be that someone knew about you and me and deliberately spread it to discredit your reputation?
Or.........
Liu Mingzhi suddenly did not dare to think any further. If this was really the case, he would be in a very passive situation.
"I don't know what you mean, let alone where you heard some rumors. I don't mind, but if these words reach the ears of the Queen, even if you are the prince of the Kingdom of Jin, I will be afraid. You won’t be able to eat anymore and will be walking around!”
"Hahaha............"
Wanyan Chizha suddenly laughed heartily: "Your Majesty is right, Lord Liu is indeed a person with seven orifices, but doesn't Lord Liu think this excuse is too pale? It's a pity that my niece is so beautiful and fragrant. It’s such a pity that Zise would still fall in love with such a heartless person like you, it’s such a pity!”
Liu Mingzhi tapped the table gently: "I don't want to talk about these meaningless disputes with you. Now that you have fallen into my hands, I hope you should be more aware of current affairs! Explain the reasons clearly, I Handsome might spare your life!"
Wanyan Chizha glanced at Liu Mingzhi calmly and continued to drink tea: "I came to Jiangnan to visit the mountains and rivers. I joined the caravan just to hide my identity. After all, there are some unnecessary troubles that should be avoided! Could it be that we should avoid them? Doesn’t the dragon allow people from other countries to roam around?”
"Of course it's allowed, let alone just for a leisure trip. Even if you want to settle down in Dalong, it's not a bad idea. However, your leisure trip is really too dangerous. Bringing 10,000 soldiers to the south of the Yangtze River is not a good idea. So if there is a war between the two countries, wouldn't you have to raise millions of troops to go south?"
Wanyan Chizha looked at Liu Mingzhi provocatively: "Master Liu's suggestion is not unacceptable. I just want to see the reputation of the Confucian Commander and see whether the Dragon Gate Formation is a vain reputation or a real talent!"
Liu Mingzhi squinted his eyes and stared sharply at Wanyan Chiezha: "Your Excellency, you are now my commander's prisoner. If you talk to me like this, I can execute you at any time. I hope you will recognize your situation clearly and don't Die in vain!”
Wanyan Chizha stood up suddenly, bent down and took out an exquisite golden scimitar from his boots and slapped it on the table.
"If you are not afraid of regrets, Master Liu, feel free to come and get it!"
"No one dares to look down on me like this!"
"My head is not that easy to take away!"
