At this time, Cheng Yaojin had already returned to Chang'an with 10,000 surrendered troops from Weizhou City. These 10,000 surrendered troops would be dispersed and sent to Zhechong Mansion where the generals of King Qin were stationed for redistribution and training.

However, Cheng Yaojin felt very uncomfortable when he thought of that awesome Wei Zheng. Cheng Yaojin never expected that Wei Zheng could use such "dirty" methods. After all, Cheng Yaojin never thought that he was good at it. This kind of method will actually be used on himself one day.

"My lord, do you think there might be a move from the army division behind this?" Cheng Fei, who was slightly behind, urged his horse to come to Cheng Yaojin and whispered.

"Can't you? He has the leverage in my hands, how can he give that bull-nosed advice?" Cheng Yaojin said with a tone full of uncertainty. Cheng Yaojin didn't think that this should be Lu Chen's fault. After all, Lu Chen has no conflict of interest with either Tiance Mansion or Dong Palace.

It turns out that Tiance Mansion is at odds with the East Palace. This is something that everyone knows. To put it more seriously, they are all on the same page. What is the use of Lu Chen's little trick of pointing Wei Zheng? Could it be that Princess Pingyang also wants that position? This is completely nonsense!

"It shouldn't be the intention of the Army Division!" Cheng Yaojin thought for a moment and said with certainty, "It's that bull-nosed guy who came to disgust us when he heard that we had priority!"

Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng arrived in Weizhou City one after another. Tian Liuan, the general manager of Weizhou City, naturally received him warmly, especially Tian Liuan, who was from the Tiance Mansion, and was naturally very close to Cheng Yaojin. After Cheng Yaojin took out Li Xiuning's military instructions, Tian Liu'an fully cooperated and gathered all the surrendered troops directly at the school military field to facilitate the selection of Master Cheng Yaojin of the Su Kingdom.

As a result, just when the two were about to start ordering troops, Wei Zhengcai took out the oracle that Li Xiuning had given him, and at the same time proposed to take away 20,000 people directly.

As soon as Cheng Yaojin heard what was going on, he had priority in selecting troops, so he immediately started working with Wei Zheng. One said that Wei Zheng was "a bull-nosed, stinky, poor man who doesn't know how to lead troops", and the other said that Wei Zheng was a "reckless man". , idiot, disrespectful of the imperial edict."

The two of them were having a huge quarrel on the military platform in the school military field. As for Tian Liuan, he could only pretend to be quail. After all, he couldn't afford to offend either of them. The other was Su Guogong, a fierce general in Tiance Mansion, and Li Shimin was a brother-in-law, and one of them was a popular figure in front of the Prince of the East Palace. Tian Liuan could not offend either of them.

In the end, such a stalemate was not the solution, so Wei Zheng asked Cheng Yaojin to choose one hundred people, and Cheng Yaojin chose one hundred people, and Wei Zheng chose one hundred people, until Cheng Yaojin had enough to choose ten thousand people. Wei Zheng took away the rest.

Cheng Yaojin didn't agree at first, but Wei Zheng insisted on it, either giving up the choice or making a fuss. At this time, Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng also got the news that Li Xiuning had led people back to Chang'an. If this happens, you basically have to go to Chang'an to file a lawsuit. If you go to Chang'an to make trouble for such a bad thing, do you want the prince and the King of Qin to lose face?

Not to mention the Crown Prince and King Qin, if they really want to cause trouble in Chang'an, this is obviously not to give Li Xiuning face. It's not like they don't know the temper of the third princess. If they really deal with them then, they will have no mercy at all. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were both afraid of the third princess, and sometimes Li Yuan was even afraid that his third daughter would lose her temper. After all, Li Yuan felt that he owed his third daughter too much, so as long as it was not a catastrophic disaster, he would probably not reprimand Li Xiuning.

In the end, Cheng Yaojin could only pinch his nose and endure it. After struggling for many days, he finally picked out the 10,000 surrendered troops and returned directly to Chang'an with 10,000 surrendered troops.

When Cheng Yaojin thought of Niubi Wei Zheng's face, he became very angry. The main reason was that Wei Zheng's actions were too dirty and disgusting.

"Sir, when the time comes, will these people be sent to the military camp outside the city first, or will they be set up in another military camp to be under unified supervision?" Cheng Fei turned his head and glanced at the long team behind him, and couldn't help but ask.

"Of course Li Ji will take care of it then, I don't have to worry about that! As long as I bring back these ten thousand surrendered troops, it will be done!" Cheng Yaojin didn't worry about how to distribute it!

On the other hand, in the Taiji Hall, after seeing Lu Chen's rather perfunctory salute, Li Yuan unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth. This blatant perfunctory was too disrespectful to the current majesty, but Lu Chen The compliments he said made Li Yuan unable to get angry, and he could only look at Lu Chen with the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

"Lu Chen has made great contributions to the court, so he won't have to bow down like this in the future!" Li Yuan calculated it, and his daughter said that this Lu Chen might be "relegated to the earth". Lu Chen could say this just now, and do Just showing up as if he was about to salute was enough to give him face. If Lu Chen really bowed down to him, it was hard to say whether he would be able to bear it. Being worshiped by an immortal might even cost him his life, and Immortals seem to have always been free and uninhibited people, and Lu Chen's behavior just now was quite similar.

At this moment, Li Yuan thought of so many things. If Lu Chen knew that Li Yuan thought this way, he would probably give Li Yuan a thumbs up and praise him: "The king of brainstorming!"

As soon as Li Yuan said these words, everyone in the audience was shocked. What did Li Yuan mean by this? Everyone here was a smart person, so there was no one who didn't understand. From now on, whenever Lu Chen saw anyone, he would probably just nod as a salute. After all, people don’t have to kneel down when they see the emperor, let alone others?

When Lu Chen heard what Li Yuan said, he immediately beamed with joy, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Chen directly raised his fists and saluted Li Yuan. A dignified man of seven feet, kneeling on heaven and earth, kneeling on his parents, can shed his life and blood for the motherland, but you let him Kneel down in front of others, not even the emperor. This is the pride of a soldier engraved in his bones.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what merit this person has?" Lu Chen just thanked Li Yuan when Wang Gui jumped out again.

"Mr. Lu, you made alcohol and saline to treat countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and made horse gear, so that our cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is not weaker than the Turkic cavalry. Isn't this a great achievement?" Li Xiuning heard that Wang Gui wanted to accuse Lu Chen again. He quit and directly shouted at Wang Gui.

"Since Lu Chen is a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, he should contribute to the Tang Dynasty. What kind of great contribution is this?" Wang Gui was also unambiguous about Li Xiuning. After all, the Wang family is also one of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. If it weren't for the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, they would support you. Li family, can your Li family have the status it has today?

"Oh?" After hearing Wang Gui's words, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and turned to look at this arrogant little old man again. His feelings didn't kill you just now. How uncomfortable are you!

"According to Wang Zhongyun's words, shouldn't the people of the Tang Dynasty contribute all their wealth to the Tang Dynasty?" Wang Gui was currently serving as Prince Zhongyun of the East Palace. Naturally, Lu Chen had already learned about Wang Gui's current position when he signed up. official position.

Hearing Lu Chen directly call Wang Gui "Wang Zhongyun", Li Yuan and Li Shimin were both startled. Only Li Xiuning was still watching Lu Chen argue with Wang Gui. You must know that Lu Chen is the number one in Tai Chi Hall today. It was the first time he saw Wang Gui, and he just asked Wang Gui's name. Obviously, Lu Chen didn't know Wang Gui. Although Wang Gui was wearing a fifth-grade court uniform at this time, he could immediately call out Wang Gui's official position. How could this be possible? Li Yuan and Li Shimin were not surprised, and Lu Chen's tone seemed to be familiar to Wang Gui.

"Xiuning, have you mentioned Wang Gui to Mr. Lu?" Li Yuan couldn't help but curiously asked Li Xiuning in a low voice.

"No!" Li Xiuning shook his head simply, and when Li Xiuning shook his head, Li Yuan's somewhat cloudy eyes suddenly became brighter.

"Of course! The people of the Tang Dynasty should be loyal to their emperor and patriotic, and repay heaven's kindness!" Wang Gui raised his hand directly in the direction of Li Yuan, and what he said was a righteous Lingran.

"Oh!" Lu Chen nodded when he heard Wang Gui's words, "Wang Zhongyun is indeed a loyal and patriotic person!" Lu Chen raised his hand to Wang Gui, but there was a look of disdain on his face.

"Don't ridicule me like a villager!" How could Wang Gui not hear the meaning in Lu Chen's words? He pointed directly at Lu Chen, who was trembling a little. He was obviously very angry at Lu Chen.

"Ah? Is it wrong to say that Wang Zhongyun is a loyal and patriotic person?" Lu Chen looked at Wang Gui with a surprised expression, "Does it mean that we have to say that Wang Zhongyun is a deceitful person in order to show that Lu is honest?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Xiuning couldn't help but laugh. No one in the Women's Army could talk better about Lu Chen's mouth than him. Now Wang Gui, the old killer, wants to quarrel with Lu Chen. How is that possible?

Others also snickered, obviously laughing at Wang Gui who was so angry that Lu Chen was so angry. As for Li Yuan and Li Shimin, they smiled bitterly. Now Li Yuan really doesn't know whether it is right or wrong to summon Lu Chen on this occasion. wrong!

"I thought Wang Gui was so loyal and loyal, but I didn't expect that today I would be ridiculed by this country man. Your Majesty, I have no shame in living!" At this time, Wang Gui also realized that he had been made stupid by Lu Chen angrily. The only way to prove one's innocence is to prove one's innocence through death, a trick that critics and officials like.

Wang Gui stood up and was about to hit the pillar on the side, but the others hurriedly stopped him.

"Wang Zhongyun is dedicated to serving the country. I know that Mr. Lu just made a few jokes. Wang Zhongyun shouldn't be too angry!" Li Yuan saw that Wang Gui was seeking death and survival, so he hurriedly said a few words.

After hearing Li Yuan's words and the comfort of several officials from aristocratic families around Wang Gui, Wang Gui sat back down in his seat with a look of grief and indignation.

"What your Majesty said is that we are discussing matters of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Why is Wang Zhongyun seeking death and living like this? Is it because he can't tell the difference and is planning to die?" Lu Chen saw Wang Gui shunned the donkey and sat down again, and directly Starting to add fuel to the fire again, it was obvious that Lu Chen was planning to squeeze Wang Gui to death today!
