Chapter 144
Early the next morning, Lin Chen entered the temporary commander-in-chief's mansion, no, it was the temporary Zhenbei prince's mansion, and went to see Xiang Wuxia.

After staying for a while, the North King of Xinjin Town sent Lin Chen out in high spirits.

After saying goodbye to Xiang Wuchou, he went to see Qian Cheng again.

Because of Lin Chen, Qian Chengbai got 10 taels of silver, and also earned military merits, so he was in an unusually good mood.He politely welcomed Lin Chen into the reception hall.

In the city, Qian Cheng temporarily requisitioned a magnificent mansion to handle military affairs.

After serving tea and taking his seat, Lin Chen said straight to the point, "I just heard from King Zhenbei that the war has settled down, and our allied forces in the Great Xia Kingdom can return to the mainland. The subordinates will take a leave of absence and lead their troops to leave early."

That being said, in fact, Lin Chen already knew about it from Prince Xuan Qingyun last night.

After all, if the Allied forces stayed for one more day, it would cost a lot of money in all aspects.

I went to see Xiang Wuchou before, just to confirm whether Qian Cheng had been notified.

"That's right, I'm about to tell people from all over the place to gather in one place, and the teachers will return to the court. Since you want to go first, then you can do as you please. I have reported your merits to the court. When the meritorious officials are rewarded in the future, you and I We can still meet each other, and we will definitely have a few drinks." Qian Cheng readily agreed.

Lin Chen was also in a good mood. If he went back with a large army, it would definitely take a lot of time. It would be more convenient to go alone.

After thanking Qian Cheng, he stood up and resigned.

"Don't be in a hurry. It will take a long time for you to meet again. After talking about military affairs, let's talk about our personal friendship." Qian Cheng stopped Lin Chen with a smile.

Lin Chen sat back on the chair again, "General Qian is the leader of the army. If the general hadn't handed over the matter today, his subordinates would really dare not take the initiative to climb up!"

Qian Cheng stretched out his finger, pointed at Lin Chen and said with a smile, "Look at what you said, you worry about the war on weekdays, so naturally you don't care about other things. It's time for us to talk about it. When we were chasing the Jin army from Bailang Pass that day, we met General Yu Chixuan. It was only when he asked me about your recent situation that I realized that the two of you are best friends. It just so happens that Yu Chixuan and I have been life-and-death brothers for many years, so we have gotten a lot closer."

Lin Chen sighed and sighed, "Oh, there is still such a relationship. When he left Fulongkou, General Yuchi didn't say anything. I think he was afraid that his subordinates would often trouble the general if they found out! From this, we can see that you Sure enough, they are sincere and daring, and their feelings are much deeper than those of me who met halfway."

Qian Cheng smiled and shook his head, "You can't say that, General Yuchi has a lot of respect for you, not to mention those great achievements, he also repeatedly talked about your magic, especially the gift you gave him. That little mirror works wonders!"

"So the theme is here!"

Having said that, Lin Chen already understood Qian Cheng's intentions, and he was actually blackmailed.

But he still showed a warm smile, "It's just some small gadgets. I just happen to have a small mirror like this here, so I gave it to the general. Although the general doesn't need it, it's a good gift for others."

After saying this, he took out a small mirror and a bottle of blue pills from his pocket, and pushed them to Qian Cheng.

"Brother, what you said is right in my brother's heart." Qian Cheng was so happy that he even changed his address. He picked up a small mirror and fiddled with it, "Such a strange thing is more practical than gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy and painting .I borrowed flowers and presented Buddha as a gift to an old brother."

"Hmph...it must be a gift for a younger brother!"

Lin Chen thought to himself, leaned over and whispered, "If the old brother is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the general's good intentions will probably be in vain."

After speaking, the two looked at each other, and at the same time let out a laugh that only their men could understand.

In the harmonious atmosphere, the two said some more farewell words before Lin Chen left.

Similarly, Qian Cheng personally sent him out of the house.

After seeing Lin Chen off, Qian Cheng returned to the reception hall, picked up the small mirror again and fiddled with it non-stop.

This small mirror is roughly similar to the one given to Yu Chixuan, with a dark golden hollowed-out lady frame, and the workmanship is very exquisite.

Not to mention its efficacy, but the craftsmanship and the clarity of the photo are considered rare treasures.

The more Qian Cheng looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't put it down.

Even if you don't use it yourself, it's a good story to give it to a concubine!

While he was fiddling around, a soldier hurried over to report, "General, someone is coming from the palace."

"The miscellaneous family is here, and these rules are still required, and they are not in the palace."

Following a shrill voice, a middle-aged man wearing ordinary civilian clothes walked in.

This person has a fair face and no beard, and looks a little rich. When he walks, he waved his robe and sleeves, arrogantly, and everywhere he went, there was a strange smell.

If a literati walks like this, he will be unrestrained and coquettish.

This person walks like this, but he is wild and unrestrained, and the wind blows his face.

Looking at his appearance, listening to his voice, and smelling his smell, even if he has never met him before, he can tell that this person is an eunuch.

What's more, Qian Cheng was born in the Imperial Forest Army and knew many eunuchs in the palace.

Seeing this person, Qian Cheng greeted him with a flash of surprise in his eyes, "Eunuch Hou is really a rare visitor. Eunuch is not in the palace to enjoy blessings, so how can he be free in this wilderness where no shit? Come... Please sit down , come...to serve tea."

The man laughed a few times, went to the chair and sat down, and said in a sharp voice, "The miscellaneous family is just a hard worker, so how can there be any free time? No, the third highness can't trust others, so he entrusted a lot of things to others. Miscellaneous care..."

Speaking of this, Eunuch Hou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw the small mirror in Qian Cheng's hand. The angle of the mirror happened to be facing him, and he saw his own face from inside.

"Oh, this is a rare thing..." Eunuch Hou took the small mirror and began to play with it, and couldn't help but admire, "This thing is really good, it looks like a puddle of water..."

Qian Cheng's heart skipped a beat, secretly regretting that he hadn't hidden the mirror in time, he knew about this Eunuch Hou, who started as a little eunuch and became the third prince's valet step by step.And it is the most favored existence among all the servants.

What he relies on is shrewdness, charm, and guessing at his master's mind.One of the commonly used methods is to collect rare folk objects and present them to the master for favor.

Sure enough, Eunuch Hou's words just now were just foreshadowing, and the words that followed made Qian Cheng's heart completely cold.

"This good thing, His Highness the Third Highness must like it very much, I wonder if General Qian is willing to part with it?"

Lin Chen has a crow's mouth!
Qian Cheng secretly sighed, just now he said not to give it to the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but this Eunuch Hou is no different from the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in terms of structure.

If not, this Eunuch Hou will go back and tell the third prince that he will not be short of shoes.

At worst, see Lin Chen and ask for another face if he is cheeky!

Thoughts flashed across his mind, he said with a smile all over his face, "It's our honor to be a courtier that Your Highness the Third Highness can take a fancy to this thing, so please ask your father-in-law to present it to His Highness Third Highness on behalf of Qian Cheng!"

"It's easy to talk, easy to talk... definitely bring the words." Eunuch Hou put the mirror in his arms happily, then looked around, and confirmed that there was no one else around, and then said in a low voice, "The miscellaneous family is here this time. It's His Highness Feng San. Jun Ling, I'm here on an errand. General Qian will help with this matter."

While speaking, he took out a metal plate from his pocket and put it in front of Qian Cheng.

Qian Cheng picked it up with both hands, looked carefully, and after confirming that it was the third prince's identity token, he wondered inwardly, what could the third prince be doing here?
"Eunuch Hou, please tell me, Your Highness has an order, Qian Cheng dare not obey it." Qian Cheng stood up and expressed his opinion.

"Sit...sit...it's a trivial matter, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Eunuch Hou waved his hand to let Qian Cheng sit down, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a Black Rock City warrior named Lin Chen in your army?"
