At five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xing reluctantly returned to the Prime Minister's office to meet with the two principalities.
It was almost dinner time. He originally wanted to go to the fishing boat Laojiu with Cuilis to have a good meal, but the ghost fox came to the door and said that the two kings had been waiting for him for almost a week. Now is the war period, and there are still many things to deal with in the country. They are very anxious and hope to see the Prime Minister immediately.
Helpless, who wants him to be the actual leader of the southern forces? Everything can only focus on the overall situation, and let’s put food aside for now.
"Let me go first!" "No, me first!" "I'm in a hurry!" "I'll force you to be more anxious!"
At the door, two fat men with ribbons on their shoulders and fine clothes crowded against the doorframe, refusing to let anyone in. They were huge, full of flesh, weighing hundreds of kilograms, and their waists were thicker than water towers. The two-meter-wide door frame could only accommodate one of them, so they were squeezed in at the door and no one could get in.
Probably realizing that no one could get in with such a crowd, the two kings stopped at the same time and persuaded each other in a sincere tone.
"Marquis Eric, my affairs are very urgent. Please let me go in first. We Nortonians will never forget the generosity of our neighbors."
"Marquis Norton, you'd better let me go in first. I'll say a few words to the Prime Minister and then leave. I promise that we Hongsang people will always remember the kindness of our neighbors."
The two kings looked at each other with no intention of giving in.
"Marquis Eric, are all you Hongsang people so rude?"
"Marquis Norton, I should tell you this, do you Norton people only have muscles in your heads?"
The two kings were shoulder to shoulder, waist to waist, and their mouths were not idle, taunting each other.
"No wonder people on the Internet say that the Red Mulberry Principality is a bunch of pigs."
"I'm sure they saw the picture of Norton Pig."
"You dare to say it again!" "You can say it a hundred times, you're a Norton pig!" "You, you dare to say it again, you're a red mulberry pig who hasn't bathed since birth!" "Norton pig!" " Red Mulberry Pig!"
The two kings were gradually irritated by each other's words, and their faces turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Seeing that two fat men weighing several hundred pounds were about to fight at the door, Chen Xing winked at the ghost fox next to him.
The latter nodded knowingly, stepped forward, took out a gold coin, "Two adults, toss the coin."
Looking at the golden gold coins clamped between two fingers, the two kings were stunned for a moment and said in unison: "Heads up!"
"Why are you facing me?" "It's because of my Norton's invincible muscle army!" "Looks like I'm going to let you have a taste of the power of the Red Mulberry people!"
The two kings bared their teeth and geared up, as if they were ready to pounce on them at any moment.
Ghost Fox couldn't help but roll his eyes, looked back at Aqiaomu who was standing behind the desk, and motioned for him to come forward. The latter narrowed his eyes, strode forward, and warned with a cold face, "We, the Prime Minister, are very busy and don't have time to watch you argue here!"
"If you don't want to meet me, you two adults, please go back!"
Aqiaomu gave the order to expel the guests, and the two kings finally stopped. You looked at me, I looked at you, and then laughed at the same time.
"Marquis Eric, please go first!" "No, no, no, Marquis Norton, please go first!" "You go first!" "No, no, you go first!"
The two kings started the second round - giving in to each other.
Ah Qiaomu was in a daze as he watched two fat men weighing several hundred pounds giving way to each other with smiles on their faces.
In the end, Bai Ye Liufang, who was born in the palace, found a way to get the two kings to squeeze in at the same time. Although the wooden door frame was crushed, at least the problem was solved.
"Good afternoon, Prime Minister." "Good afternoon, Prime Minister."
Two fat men weighing several hundred pounds stood in front of the desk with their heads held high, like two mountains of meat, completely blocking the view in front of them.
According to the practice of the Red Kingdom, the owner of the principality does not need to salute anyone except the king of the country, including the holder of the Ring of the Kingdom.
This is a tradition left by the Ambergris River for thousands of years, and it is also the arrogance and dignity of the country's leader.
But then again, rules are dead, people are alive. As the superior unit, Chen Xing enjoys the right to speak while sitting, while the two heads of state can only stand.
"What's the reason for the two adults' visit?" Chen Xing held hands and put them on the table, looking at the two of them and asked. The tone was calm, without any emotion of happiness or displeasure.
When it came to business, the two kings' expressions hardened, they stood up straight and showed a serious attitude.
This time, they did not rush to speak, but spoke in turn.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I am here to explain to you the attack you encountered on the Norton border." Marquis Norton said, "I assure you in the name of the Norton royal family that no one in Norton wants to harm you. .”
"However, your Excellency was attacked in your own country. As the leader of the country, I have an unshirkable responsibility. Please punish me."
After saying that, Marquis Norton took a deep breath, tightened his round belly, and bent down with difficulty to apologize.
Next, Marquis Eric's words were similar. He first cleared away responsibility, then took the initiative to admit his mistakes and asked for punishment. In short, he did not admit big mistakes and did not avoid small mistakes. It was standard workplace crisis public relations.
"I understand everything you said." Chen Xing nodded, expressing his understanding, "I believe that the two adults are loyal to the kingdom and to the Queen."
Hearing what the Prime Minister said, the two kings smiled with relief.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your trust!"
Although the case has not yet been solved, the identity of the killer is unknown, and the two kings have not been completely freed from suspicion, Chen Xing does not want to make a big fuss about this matter.
First, it is now a war period. Norton and Hongsang have just surrendered, so internal unity must be the first priority. To put it bluntly, even if it was the two of them who did it, in order to stabilize the situation, as the prime minister, he could only pretend to be confused and understand.
Second, the two people are not very suspicious. If you really want to assassinate him, with the strength of their two kings, it is not difficult to kill someone on their own territory. There is no need to go around a long way and hire a team of killers.
It's just that it's easy to kill him, but it's difficult to face Triris' wrath. They are all owners of the country and have vested interests, so they will not shoot themselves in the foot.
Also, the Red Country is martial and upright, and the characters of these two people can be said to be the most upright among uprights. There is a high probability that they will not do such sneaky things to smear their own faces.
Marquis Eric and Marquis Norton looked at each other, and the former said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, we have brought some condolences. It is not a sign of respect, but please accept it with your grace."
"Why is this so embarrassing?" Chen Xing frowned slightly, looking embarrassed to accept the gift.
"As the king of the country, we cannot know everything clearly. The enemy is right under our noses without knowing it. The Prime Minister was disturbed. We did not do things well afterwards. The identity of the murderer has not yet been found. I really feel guilty..." At this point... , Marquis Eric paused slightly, nodded and said, "This is a small thought, please accept it."
"They are all specialties from this country and are not worth much." Marquis Norton agreed.
"Okay then..." Chen Xing sighed helplessly, and then smiled, "Then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
"Thank you, sir!" "Wish you well, sir!"
Chen Xing left his desk and said goodbye to the two heads of state while talking and laughing. Soon after, a list of condolences was delivered.
Looking at the long list of top-notch luxury goods, precious medicines, rare ingredients, treasured wines, luxury cars and guns, Chen Xing couldn't help but sigh. Just a customized sports car costs tens of thousands of gold coins. It can be said that the purchase is extremely generous. Spend a fortune.
It seems that the two kings have a strong desire to survive.
There are three customized sports cars on the list. Chen Xing adheres to the principle of making the best use of everything. He is not like those Middle Eastern tycoons on the first earth. There are hundreds of luxury cars parked in the garage, and he can only drive them a few times throughout the year. He casually gave it to the three women present, and even A Qiaomu was assigned a car. He was moved to tears on the spot.
You must know that Aqiaomu is just a slave and has no right to ask for rewards from his master.
Since her small treasury was confiscated by Chen Xing, she is no longer qualified to use the contents in the treasury, and she dares not take bribes anymore. With only the salary income of the chief judge of her black prison, she can only make do with it in the Ice Blue City, the most expensive city in the world. Maintain your family's livelihood.
But in fact, the salary of the Black Prison Judge is not meager. It’s just that Aqiaomu’s parents have lived in the desert of Dafang Prefecture all their lives. They have no culture and only know how to herd sheep. In addition to the language barrier, they can only work at the lowest level in Ice Blue City. work.
After all, Aqiaomu is the chief judge of the Black Prison and a high-ranking official in Ice Blue City. He cannot let his parents do hard work and lose face.
And her younger brother is still a graduate student at the Blue City Noble College. Not only can he not make money, he also needs a lot of tuition.
It can be said that life is tight, worse than that of ordinary families in Ice Blue City.
The top-of-the-line sports car that Chen Xing gave away casually could easily be sold for several thousand gold coins at an auction house, which would immediately solve her urgent need.
Times have changed, and in the past, she would have looked down on this kind of sports car.
But sometimes people are very strange. Everything that belongs to them is obviously taken away, but the other person gives her a candy, and she is so grateful that she sheds tears.
All I can say is that she is a bitch at heart. In front of Chen Xing, she is just a humble bitch who can never hold her head high. This is also the reason why she keeps chasing the other party, because she cannot accept her humble appearance.
But now, she has completely resigned herself to her fate. She knew that no matter how hard she tried and struggled, she could never defeat the opponent and could not escape the fate of being controlled.
At this time, even if he put a knife against her neck and asked her to resist Chen Xing, she would not dare. She would rather die than resist this man.
Next, the rare ingredients and treasured wines are sent to the kitchen, and the rest are put into the treasure house of the black prison for Chen Xing to call at any time.
The current Black Prison Treasure House is just like Chen Xing's private warehouse. As long as he nods, even Cuilis will not take it casually.
After giving instructions, Chen Xing was about to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat. Looking at the three women in front of him, he suddenly felt that something was missing around him, which he was not used to.
He thought for a while and finally figured it out. When it comes to making tea, these three women are not professional. What they are good at is murder, arson, and power games. They are not here to serve tea and water, chat with him and brag, and waste the time that should be spent on serious matters on such trivial matters.
Of course, serving him as the prime minister is also a national matter, but there are still many things to deal with inside and outside Binglan City, and they must be allowed to return to their posts.
"Where's Xiao Yang?" Chen Xing raised his head and asked suddenly.
Aqiaomu and Guihu were obviously stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other, seemingly communicating with their eyes.
Of course Chen Xing noticed such small details, but he didn't say it out loud. He just looked at them and waited for their answer.
"Ah, um, Assistant Yang, Assistant Yang, he seems to be resting in the dormitory?"
After humming several times in a row, Guihu finally said it, and it was still a question, looking very uncertain.
"Now..." Chen Xing looked at his black watch, "It's already six o'clock in the afternoon, and he hasn't come to work yet?"
Ghost Fox was a little hesitant, "I, let me go and take a look?"
"Then go ahead." Chen Xing raised his head.
After getting Chen Xing's approval, Ghost Fox immediately left as if fleeing.
"Master, I remembered that there is still a case that I have not finished handling today. I will go back first..."
As soon as the ghost fox left, A Qiaomu asked Chen Xing to resign. After receiving his approval, he immediately chased after him.
"Sneaky, what are you doing..."
Seeing the two women leaving in a hurry, Bai Ye Liufang showed a puzzled expression and deliberately said in front of Chen Xing.
"What's the matter?" Chen Xing didn't have time to pay attention to the little fight between the women, and waved his hand, "If you have something to do, go and do it, don't hang around here."
"Huh, you think I'm annoying, so drive me away~" Bai Ye Liufang acted like a little woman, "That's not what you said when we were in bed."
"I said..." Chen Xing looked up at her, "Director of the Security Department of Ice Blue City, do you feel that the world is peaceful and there is nothing left to do?"
"Uh..." Bai Ye Liufang showed a shy smile, "Hehe, Prime Minister, I'm going back to work!"
After saying that, he backed away all the way, walked to the door, twisted his butt and ran away.
A moment later, a series of rapid footsteps sounded in the underground passage of the Black Prison Trial Hall.
"Kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, kick..."
The crisp sound of high heels hitting the ground echoed in the long and quiet passage. The three wild flowers of the Black Prison hurried past, and the water snakes under their uniforms twisted their waists like clockwork. Soon, they came to a cell and pushed the door open.
Inside, a man was chained to a cross. When he saw them coming in, he immediately showed a painful expression.
"Sir Aqiaomu, Chief Ghost Fox, Chief Li Rou, I've tried everything, don't torture me anymore," he begged.
The three Kuanghua didn't say anything, they just looked up and down at the man named "Yang Zhixun".
After a while, Aqiaomu turned his head and said to Li Rou, "Xiaorou, go to the church and ask for a therapist."
"He's not injured..." Li Rou said strangely. Although they were tortured, the injuries were minor and they healed on their own after being detained for a few days.
A Qiaomu did not answer, but turned to look at Xiao Yang and asked, "Assistant Yang, what have you been doing these days?"
"I, I..." Xiao Yang looked confused, "I am locked up here by you, and you beat me with whips and candles..."
A Qiaomu turned to look at Li Rou again, making a "look at it" gesture.
"I understand." Li Rou nodded and went out.
"You, what do you want to do..." Xiao Yang asked timidly with fear in his eyes.
"You'll find out later." Ghost Fox said.
Not long after, Li Rou brought back a quick healer wearing a priest's robe.
"May the Holy Light bless you." The priest stepped forward and touched Xiao Yang's chest. Xiao Yang suddenly became more frightened and broke out in cold sweat.
"You misunderstood." Guihu patted the pastor's shoulder from behind and emphasized, "This is not a last prayer."
Xiao Yang's expression fell instantly, and his body went limp, feeling like he was surviving a disaster.
"Get out of the way." Aqiaomu took the whip from the wall, then raised his hand and whipped it down.
"Uh-huh!" Xiao Yang howled in pain as the whip hit him.
After whipping several times in succession, Aqiaomu used the handle of the whip to lift Xiao Yang's chin, "Assistant Yang, what have you been doing these days?"
"I, I..." Xiao Yang racked his brains and thought hard for a while, then said weakly, "I was not locked up by you, and I was not whipped by you..."
Before he finished speaking, several whips were struck in succession, and Xiao Yang screamed in agony.
"I didn't do anything. I just watched TV at home and surfed the Internet..."
"Pop!" "Pap!" "Ahhh!"
"I, I go to work every day, sorting out documents..."
"Pa!" "Ah!"
No matter how he answered, Xiao Yang struggled and shouted, "I, I want to tell the boss that you are bullying me!"
"Assistant Yang..." Guihu stepped forward and patted Xiao Yang on the shoulder, curled up the corner of his mouth and asked, "Do you want to file a complaint?"
"Yes, I want to file a complaint!" Xiao Yang raised his head, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water and would risk his life.
"Assistant Yang, you have to think clearly." Ghost Fox narrowed his eyes, his bright black eyes flashing with dangerous light, "I am your lady, and you..."
"Just a driver and an assistant." She said calmly with a mocking look on her face, "As the saying goes, women are like clothes, and brothers are like brothers..."
"If you touch my clothes, I'll chop off your limbs!"
"Who is closer to you, sir, do you need me to tell you clearly?"
"Uh..." Xiao Yang said hard, "The boss values love and righteousness. He is a loyal man. He will definitely avenge me!"
"Really?" Ghost Fox looked at Xiao Yang sympathetically.
Xiao Yang's stubbornness lasted less than three seconds, "Sir Ghost Fox, I was wrong, I was really wrong..."
"Then you mean that the Prime Minister is a villain who forgets his true love for women?" Ghost Fox asked.
"I, that's not what I meant!" Xiao Yang shook his head desperately.
Ghost Fox crossed his arms, tilted his neck, and looked at him, "Then what do you mean?"
Xiao Yang cried sadly, "I, I don't know..."
"Here, take a look at this." Arqiaomu held up a portable screen and showed it to Xiao Yang.
The content is a set of chat records.
[I love you, 嘤嘤嘤]
[I love you too, sweetly]
[Little fat pig, hey, hey, hey, I'm willing to die for you]
[Little Beast Beast, eh eh eh eh, I don’t want you to die]
[Little fat pig, hey, hey, hey, I’m going to die, I’m going to die]
[Little Beast Beast, eh eh eh eh, I don’t want you to die]
…
The dialogue above is unsightly and extremely disgusting, making people feel numb all over and get goosebumps all over their bodies.
"It feels so cold..." Li Rou crossed her arms and rubbed them back and forth, as if she was severely cold.
"You, what do you want to do!" Xiao Yang looked horrified.
"I know you have a little girlfriend abroad." Aqiaomu raised the portable screen in his hand, "Even if she is abroad, we can capture her at any time..."
"Do you know what this means?" Aqiaomu sneered, "What will happen to the woman who falls into my hands? I don't need to explain it, right?"
"So..." She threatened with a fierce look, "If you don't want her to appear here, you'd better cooperate with us."
"Please, don't hurt her!" Xiao Yang wailed, "I will say whatever you want me to say, and I will listen to you!"
About an hour later, Xiao Yang, who had been treated and neatly dressed, was taken to the prime minister's office by the ghost fox.
"What have you been doing these days?" Chen Xing asked as soon as they met.
"Didn't we get attacked last time? I've been in the Black Prison since I came back, working with Ghost Fox and the others to investigate the identity of the attacker." Xiao Yang answered truthfully.
Then Chen Xing asked a few more questions, and Xiao Yang answered them one by one very fluently. Even Chen Xing began to praise him, saying that Xiao Yang's brain had suddenly become brighter recently, and encouraged him to keep up his efforts and take on greater responsibilities in the future, giving him a feeling of "high hopes".
"Boss, the tea is ready, drink tea."
After a while, a cup of hot Yuanshan tea was delivered to his desk. Chen Xing picked it up, took a sip, and praised, "Assistant Yang is the expert in making tea!"
