Said: "What's the embarrassment with us?"

"Father, I want it convenient." Su Yu had no choice but to escape.

"You're really promising!" Chen Cheng saw that he was ready to solve the problem, and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage with the child in his arms.

As soon as Chen Cheng left, Chen Yi appeared.Su Ju looked at the person who came suddenly, and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?" Don't worry about it.

"Master, the younger one is here to deliver the good news." Chen Yi said respectfully.

"Good news, where is it?" Su Ju reflexively took the package from Chen Yi, "So heavy?"

"There are still memorials." Chen Yi lowered his head and continued: "Master Chen said that he can't make decisions on his own."

"No way?" Su Ju took out a memorial with staring eyes, flipped through it casually, and after just two glances, he had the urge to throw the memorial on Chen Yang's face, provided that Chen Yang was here.This cannot be decided, it is clearly a trivial matter.

Su Jue looked up at Chen Yi, who was oily from the sun, and said, "Go back and tell Chen Yang to guard the capital for me. If something goes wrong, I'll skin him. Also, don't bother us if you have nothing to do!"

"Master, do you have any other orders?" Chen Yi was indifferent when he heard Su Ju's words, and his forehead sweated even more.

Su Ju flipped through the playlist sent forward, and said, "There is one more thing. A student named Qian Yaozu will come to the capital in a few days, and let Chen Yang take care of himself."

"Remember it, little one." Chen Yi went to rest after speaking, and he could go on his way when it was too dark, because the temperature during the day was too high.

When Chen Cheng came back with Su Yu in his arms, Su Yu was staring at the same chorus.Chen Cheng asked curiously: "Ah Ju, why did you churn out all the memorials?"

"It's not me." Su Ju lay down on Xiao Fangji, and said weakly: "Chen Yang sent all the reports that he didn't approve. By the way, a few days ago, Qian Qiang sent those who wandered on the southwest border The tribes are all incorporated."

"This is forward?" Chen Cheng took out an ordinary memorial, glanced at it, and said, "Forward is the weapon of the country!"

"Let's not talk about him." Su Ju turned his gaze to Su Yu and said, "I'll deal with the matter first, Chen Yi is still waiting." Then Su Ju started to deal with the official documents.

During the period, Chen Cheng took the writing brush in Su Ju's hand, and wrote on the victory report handed over to him, "Targets rest and recuperate".

"Chen Cheng, can Xiangqian be safe?" Su Ju thought of the movement of Qianqian in the past few years, and Qin Li did not miss him sending troops to provoke the enemy.Then he said: "Since he wants to open up territories for the Jinyu Dynasty, we have no reason to stop him.

"Ah Jue, the military budget is tight." Chen Cheng said helplessly, "Ever since he settled down in the southwest five years ago, he has never been idle. At least [-]% of the treasury's income is shipped to the southwest. You don't know this, do you?" ?”

"Father, you are really asking the wrong question." Su Yu held his chin and pretended to be old-fashioned and said, "He is blushing and arguing with a bunch of stubborn old people because of some trivial matters of the boss's family. , I am lucky that my head is not rusted!" At the end, it was quite a pity.

"You child deserves a beating!" Su Ju raised his hand and slapped Su Yu's buttocks, and said, "If you don't want to be beaten today, you will cry for your father and mother, and my surname is not Su!"

"Your surname is not Su, your surname is Chen!" Su Yu's little butt pouted, hid in Chen Cheng's arms, and made a face at Su Yu, "Come on, come on..."

"You son of a bitch!" Su Ju roared angrily, and taught Chen Cheng a lesson.

But before he could punch, he was hugged by Chen Cheng.Seeing this, Su Yu hurriedly rolled out from under Chen Cheng's arm.Standing by the door of the carriage, he said with a smile, "Daddy, it's a beautiful day, hurry up and hurry up!" After speaking, he jumped down to the carriage, and the noise in the carriage was instantly forgotten.

Su Yu looked at the scorching sky, sat under the shade of a tree and said to himself: "I am really the most filial son in the world, even considering the physical needs of my father..."

Just when the child was boasting, the horseshoe kicked, and a group of people arrived in Chongzhou City.

Because they didn't say hello to Cao Yuan, it was dark when they arrived in Chongzhou City, and everyone could only rest in the restaurant.

Su Yu is the lord of a country. Although he is light and simple, but with the attendants who take care of Su Yu, there are a total of 30 people who enter the city.

So, seeing these people settled down, Su Ju went to wash up with Chen Cheng.After washing, the two naturally went to bed to rest, but Su Ju jumped up as soon as he sat on the bed.

"Su Yu, why are you here!?" Su Ju pointed to the bulging hill on the bed and said, "Go back to your room!"

"Father, you are so cruel!" Su Yu threw away the cold quilt that almost killed him, looked at Chen Cheng and said, "Daddy, I want to sleep with you tonight."

"Why?" Chen Cheng looked at the child kneeling on the bed with a funny face.

"No reason!" He would not say it, lying on the bed and seeing the loneliness in the room, he felt depressed, and this time he sneaked to the next door.

Chen Cheng just asked casually, and had no intention of delving into it.Patting Su Yu's shoulder reassuringly, he said, "It's late at night, go to bed early."

Su Ju was also used to the child's capriciousness in recent days, so he took off his shoes and went to bed.As soon as his body touched the bed, Su Ju became angry.

"Su Yu, get out of here quickly!" Staring at the child on his body, "You want to heat me to death?!"

"Don't!" Su Yu grabbed Su Ju's neck tightly, "Daddy hugs me to sleep every day, and you haven't hugged me before!"

"Fart!" This kid started to develop in a lawless direction since he got Chen Cheng's phrase "say what you want".

"Indecent, indecent!!!" Su Yu shook his head, recalling the scene when he passed a small town two days ago and saw a mother holding her child singing a cradle tune, "Father, you can sing a lullaby ?”

"Can you come down?" Su Yu's voice became dark and deep.

Seeing Chen Cheng's face full of smiles, Su Yu knew that he would not be beaten.Su Ju, whose little head was shaking, didn't say anything dizzy, and muttered to sing quickly.

In the end, the lord of a country was defeated by his son's stubbornness.However, as soon as he hummed, the child immediately snored.

Su Ju was shocked, Su Ju couldn't believe his eyes. "Chen Cheng, my voice..."

"He's sleepy!" As soon as he relaxed, he naturally fell asleep.

"It can be regarded as sleeping." Su Ju sighed, and said, "I just realized that children are so troublesome today!"

Chen Cheng just smiled, put his arms around Su Ju and closed his eyes.Which child is not troublesome, Su Yu didn't think it before, it's because Su Yu is a grown-up, and Su Yu is holding it.

However, just as Su Ju, who was tossed by his son, closed his eyes, he heard a knock on the door.

Seeing Su Ju turning over and continuing to sleep, Chen Cheng put down the child in his arms, and opened the door in a daze.Seeing the officers and soldiers outside the door, Chen Cheng froze for a moment.

☆, 74 ward rounds

It is said that Chen Cheng opened the door and saw rows of soldiers standing outside the door, and they were still holding a knife in one hand and a torch in the other.

In addition to the initial surprise, it was curiosity, so I asked: "What can you do?"

"Ward rounds!" The leading soldier answered crisply and neatly.

Chen Cheng almost choked, and couldn't help asking: "Ward rounds?"

"That's right!" The officers and soldiers nodded and said, "Get out of the way!" As they spoke, they wanted to rush in.

There are Su Ju and Su Yu in the room, how could Chen Cheng let them succeed.So, he stretched out his arms, blocked the door firmly, and asked, "Who sent you here?"

"No need to be sent by others!" Seeing that Chen Cheng's demeanor is extraordinary, and he doesn't look like the bandits who have been coming to the city to make troubles recently, the leader held back his temper and said, "The ward rounds are a routine matter, please cooperate!"

"Why didn't I know that there is a ward round in the laws and regulations of the Jinyu Dynasty?" The man with sore eyes had a bad temper, and said, "Go back and forth wherever you go." Then he closed the door.

However, the soldier who dared to knock on the door in the middle of the night was not soft, just when the door was about to close, he stretched out a foot.

Severely lacking in sleep, the general with a sudden temper raised his leg and kicked the person in front of him to the side of the rail, angrily said: "Get lost!"

With a rolling word, all the soldiers' knives were scolded.At this moment, the guards who had been secretly observing the soldiers in the room walked out of the room.

It turned out that this group of people alarmed the guards as soon as they went upstairs, but the guards didn't expect them to go straight to Chen Cheng's room, and they were about to go out to stop them, and Chen Cheng opened the door.

Only then did the present scene appear—Chen Cheng was blocked at the door by soldiers, while the soldiers holding shiny swords were surrounded by guards holding long swords.

All of a sudden, all the tenants downstairs gently opened the door and poked their heads out secretly.At this moment, if Su Ju could fall asleep, it would be the reincarnation of the god of sleep.

So, Su Ju changed his nightgown, walked behind Chen Cheng, saw that he was still in a stalemate with the soldiers, and said, "We are serious businessmen, you should check elsewhere."

Ghost letter!The leader of the soldiers stood up tremblingly, looking at the long sword with a cold light. Some businessmen had thugs with them. They heard that these people were unusual, so they came here on purpose.

Then he said: "If you think you two are the leaders, then come with me!"

Chen Cheng snorted coldly in disdain, and with a flick of his wrist, the big knife in front of him ran into his hand, slammed it across the shoulder of the person opposite, and said indifferently: "My patience is limited!"

"What are you doing?" Su Ju patted Chen Cheng on the shoulder reassuringly, turned to look at the crowd, and said, "Tell Cao Yuan to come and see me!"

The leading soldier who was about to say no just now called Cao Yuan when he thought of the county guard.Looking at Su Yu again, his gaze changed instantly.However, he still asked: "Who are you and who dare to call the county guard directly!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Cheng raised his hand, and the imperial guards who had been preparing for a long time threw the soldier carrying the sword out of the restaurant.

With the sound of "plop" one after another, the tenants on the two floors below did not dare to be curious.Then he glanced at Chen Cheng lightly to see who ran faster.

Su Ju closed the door and shouted, "What is Cao Yuan doing?"

"Sleep!" Picking up Su Ju, she walked towards the bed.Walking to the bed, seeing Su Ju staring at them with wide eyes, Chen Cheng said directly: "Go inside!"

Su Yu didn't think about it, turned over twice in a row, and stopped when his back hit the side of the bed.Su Ju, who was still thrown onto the bed without mercy, did not dare to open his mouth when facing Chen Cheng who was angry for the first time.

As for Chen Cheng, he stretched out his long arms to wrap his arms around Su Yu, and was about to go to sleep without even looking at Su Yu.At this moment, Su Ju didn't dare to push Chen Cheng away, so he could only quietly stretch out his other hand to embrace the abandoned child.

It is said that just as Chen Cheng closed his eyes, a "mellow" rooster crow came from time to time, who knew that there would be two or three crows after the one.People who have been driving for a day are completely crazy, which means that in another hour, it will be dawn in the summer with long days and short nights.

Chen Cheng opened his eyes, glared at Su Yu, and said, "Next time we play until midnight, where should we go!"

Hearing this, the restless child wanted to apologize with death.But in the face of a furious person, you can only let him vent, and this matter will be considered over.

Seeing that Su Yu was silent, Chen Cheng said angrily, "Are you dumb?"

"What are you talking about?" Su Ju glared at Chen Cheng unhappily and said, "The people living on the left and right are servants, you are not making them laugh at me."

"Afraid that others will see it?" Chen Cheng laughed back angrily, "I'm just a joke! I'll fan you all during the day, so you won't be sleepy anymore!"

"Chen Cheng..." Su Ju really wanted to say, he didn't ask Chen Cheng to be courteous, some were maids.

"Daddy..."

Chen Cheng looked at the child hanging his head waiting for forgiveness, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "Why am I so angry with you?"

"Chen Cheng, just say it when you're upset, it's okay." No one has ever had a bad mood.

"That's right, Daddy." Su Yu nodded and said, "I can bear it, don't worry!" Then he patted his own small chest.

Seeing that the child was so sensible, Chen Cheng hugged Su Ju and Su Yu into his arms, and said embarrassedly, "Baby, Ah Ju, I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

"We didn't blame you." Su Ju hugged Chen Cheng's waist tightly, "I lose my temper with you every day, doesn't that mean I have to apologize too?"

"No need!" Chen Cheng thought for a while, and then said, "Maybe the weather here is too sweltering, and it's hard to cool down for a while at night, but it was disturbed by a group of psychopaths."

"Then stop talking." Su Ju leaned into Chen Cheng's arms, and didn't say a word anymore, even breathing became much lighter for a while.

When it was dawn, Cao Yuan, who was having dinner at home, saw the head of the city patrolling guard limping in, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground without realizing it.

"Were you attacked last night?"

"No!" The chief guard stammered, cleared his throat at the end, and said, "The two extremely arrogant people invite you to meet them."

"Who is it?" Cao Yuan knew that he had made a slip of the tongue after asking.If the chief guard had known, he wouldn't have been beaten with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and he wouldn't have dared to fight back.

The interrupted breakfast was still on the sidelines, Cao Yuan took the reins from the butler, and rode directly to the restaurant where the incident happened.

Cao Yuan, who was full of doubts, never expected that when he arrived at the restaurant, he would be stopped under the restaurant by an "ordinary person" with a sword on his waist.So he asked, "Do you know who I am?"

The person in front of him didn't answer, but a voice came from behind Cao Yuan, "Lord Cao, don't come here without any problems!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Cao Yuan turned around abruptly and saw Chen Er, who was covered in dew, he was stunned and asked, "...you... why are you here?" Suddenly there was something bad in his heart. premonition.

"Master is here, I'm here to deliver the official document." Chen Er didn't think too much, and handed the things in his arms to the guards, and said, "Master Cao, you are busy, I'm going to rest." Traveling at night is really too painful up.

Chen Er shook his head and left, but Cao Yuan was dumbfounded.He raised his head with complicated eyes, looked at the fifth floor at the top, and asked softly, "Has the master woke up?"

The guard replied honestly: "Master just rested!"

Well, today he will peel off his skin if he is not dead.Cao Yuan sat desperately in the lobby of the restaurant until [-]:[-] noon.

Chen Cheng walked down calmly, and leisurely ordered the attendant to bring the food, and then began to enjoy it.

Seeing that Chen Cheng's peripheral vision did not catch him, Cao Yuan couldn't help touching his face, maybe he has changed.So he stood up, walked to Chen Cheng, and said, "The last general pays his respects to the general!"

Chen Cheng raised his head when he heard the voice, and with a faint glance, Cao Yuan knew that the person in front of him was angry.

He secretly sighed in his heart that his luck was not good, if another master came down, even if he was picked up by Gao Gao, he would put it down gently in the end.

"General, the general has something to report!"

"Die early?" Don't you think it's too late to report now?

The breath in Cao Yuan's throat was choked and he couldn't speak, but he still replied respectfully: "Recently, bandits have been infested in the city. The general is afraid that the people will suffer, so he arranges soldiers to patrol."

"I know all of this, so you don't need to tell me." Chen Cheng put down the dishes and stared at the man kneeling on the ground with deep eyes, "Are you going to tell me the truth, or should I send someone to investigate?"

"General, the last general, the last general is incompetent!" Thinking of the two months of panic, Cao Yuan admitted his incompetence for the first time.

"Oh, where did Mr. Cao say that?" Chen Cheng looked at Cao Yuan with great interest. Didn't this man claim to be unparalleled in intelligence?

☆, 75 looting

When Cao Yuan heard Chen Cheng's ridicule, he closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Two months ago, a bank here was ransacked, and everyone in the bank was not spared. After testing by you, the methods are violent. The handwriting of a man who licks blood."

"Why didn't the imperial court know about it?" Jiang Yang's robbers actually appeared here, but they didn't hear a trace of the wind.

Cao Yuan didn't expect that the higher-ups didn't know about it, he thought there were spies sent by the imperial court to monitor him here.Seeing Chen Cheng's angry questioning now, Cao Yuan felt regretful and ashamed.Regret is regret that he did not ask for the assistance of the court, he was careless, and shame is ashamed that he treated the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart.

Therefore, Cao Yuan said without adding a trace of falsehood: "At the beginning of the incident, I will inquire according to the clues of the thieves. Then in the past half a month, another bank was looted in a small town next to me. I will guess. If nothing useful can be found, similar incidents will happen in the days to come."

"How many times did it happen?" Chen Cheng couldn't help tapping the table with his fingers.

Cao Yuan, who was familiar with Chen Cheng's habits, knew that he was thinking, and hurriedly said, "Four ways!"

"So, it wasn't the thieves' work?" Chen Cheng asked suspiciously.

"The last general can be sure, no!" Cao Yuan went on to say, "General Qin has secretly sent people to search within a radius of two hundred miles. Tens of thousands of taels of silver will definitely leave clues."

"Now it seems that you haven't even found any traces of horses." Chen Cheng looked at Cao Yuan with a half-smile, and said, "Could it be that Mr. Cao has lost his talents?"

"Back to the general, you can't blame the last general for not being talented. The last general suspects that the gold, silver and jewels have been transported away." Cao Yuan couldn't help moving his aching knee when he said that.

Seeing his small movements, Chen Cheng just snorted coldly. If it had been left in the past, the people on the ground would have stood up long ago.So, Chen Cheng asked: "You didn't find any useful clues, how do you know that the money has been transported away?"

"Chongzhou is close to the river, and the river flows into the sea." Cao Yuan raised his head and said with certainty, "They must be at sea now!"

"Fart!" Chen Cheng really wanted to kick him out, but he suppressed his anger, pointed at Cao Yuan's nose and said, "Your books have been read in the stomach of a dog. Have you calculated how deep gold and silver are?"

"This..." This really counts.Can't help saying: "They can prepare many boats."

"You treat Qin Qing as a dead man!" Chen Cheng stood up angrily, and shouted in a blink of an eye, "Come on, drag Cao Yuan out!"

"General, calm down!" As soon as the guards met Cao Yuan, Qin Qing rushed over.Without saying a word when he came in, he knelt on the ground with a "plop" and said: "Master Cao has been awake all night because of the theft case. You see that he has no credit but hard work. Give him another chance and let him Make up for it."

"Cao Yuan, did this general beat you because you didn't solve the case?" Chen Cheng looked at Cao Yuan indifferently.

"No!" Cao Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "The general punished me for not reporting what I knew."

"It's good to know." Just now when he was about to fight Cao Yuan, Chen Cheng was also in a moment of anger.Seeing that he knew he was wrong, he said, "There will be no next time!"

"General Xie, forgive me!" Cao Yuan, who had just been dragged up, knelt on the ground again, and continued, "The general suspects that the theft here is related to fishermen at sea."

"Impossible!" Although the group of people called "water ghosts" are used to living in the sea, he understands better than anyone else the obsession of those who drive the sea to the land.

Nowadays, the older people who drive the sea all have their own one-acre three-point land, and they will never do illegal things, let alone steal and kill people.

Chen Cheng asked: "Just because no large-scale gold and silver was found on the ground, you conclude that the people who drove the sea must have hidden the silver in the sea?"

"Another reason is that they have homes and yards on the ground." This is convenient for depositing money.

When Chen Cheng heard this, he turned his eyes to Qin Qing, "General Qin has been here for six years, have you ever seen pirates?"

"Pirates?" Cao Yuan looked at Chen Cheng in surprise, and asked, "General, do pirates mean thieves at sea?"

"I'm not stupid yet." Seeing that Cao Yuan's thinking was finally corrected, Chen Cheng said, "On the southeast coast, there are a group of people who live by hijacking the caravans that come and go. Because they didn't threaten our caravans, In addition, the pirates are familiar with the sea terrain, and it is not easy to catch them, so the imperial court has always let them go."

"General, the general feels that these mysterious people who burglarize seem to have been trained." The method is too straightforward.

"Well-trained?" Chen Cheng raised his eyes to see Qin Qing nodding, and asked, "You don't have any clues now?"

"No." Qin Qing shook his head and said uncertainly: "A few days ago, I sent the navy to investigate the eastern sea. They came back and reported that they found an island country in the sea."

"You mean, it's very likely that the people on that small island did it?" Chen Cheng asked curiously.

"Yes! It is said that the people on the island are very poor, but they are very spirited. Also, there are people on the island who can speak our language, which explains the problem."

"In this case..." Chen Cheng slapped the table and asked, "General Qin, how sure are you of taking the island?"

"Ah?" Qin Qing was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Our navy has undergone six years of training, and it only takes three days to take down an island with few weapons."

"Three days?" Chen Cheng smiled.

"Yes. One day to advance, one day to attack, and the last day to incorporate." Qin Qing was not arrogant.

"If that's the case, let's attack, and we'll talk about it later." Chen Cheng looked at Cao Yuan and said, "After General Qin goes out to fight, you have to continue to investigate the thieves."

"The general obeys orders!" Qin Qing clasped his hands, and when he saw Chen Cheng waving his hands, he bowed and retreated.

At this time, Su Yu and Su Yu had already woken up.When Chen Cheng talked about attacking the island, the father and son happened to be on the stairs.

When Cao Yuan also left, Su Jue asked: "Son, why did your father send troops to overseas islands when the military supply was tight?"

"General Qin said that it will take a very short time, so this time the troop dispatch should not cost much military expenditure." Su Yu pretended to think for a while, and said, "The most important thing about this troop dispatch is speed and secrecy."

"No more?" Su Yu asked suspiciously.

Of course there is, but can that be said?Su Yu looked up at his father, and under Chen Cheng's encouragement, he said slowly, "How can you allow others to snore next to the couch."

"Son, I think it's not too long before I abdicate." Su Ju happily picked up the child, walked to Chen Cheng and said, "I've never seen the sea before, let's go and see it?"

"Anyway, I came out to play, and it's different wherever I go." Chen Cheng asked the maid to pack his bags while speaking.

Early the next morning, before Cao Yuan started to eat, he heard the report from his servants that the distinguished guests who lived in the restaurant had left.

When Cao Yuan rushed to the outside of the city, there was only one black spot left in Su Ju's party, so Cao Yuan still knelt down and kowtowed three times in Su Ju's direction.From then on, until Cao Yuan retired in old age, he never concealed anything from the court for several years.

Chen Cheng, who was peeling the fruit for his son, would never have imagined that his accusatory rhetorical question would cause Cao Yuan to devote himself to death.

It is said that Chen Cheng saw Su Yu finished eating the apples and reached out to Su Yu's watermelon, looked at Su Yu and said, "Son, is your stomach still free?"

"I'm hungry!" Su Yu groaned and said, "Daddy is really stingy. Fortunately, you only have me as a child. If you have a litter of younger siblings like your father, wouldn't you be so heartbroken!"

"Boy, you really don't know good people!" Chen Cheng said rather disappointed, "Ah Ju, how could you give birth to such an unfilial thing."

"Our child only looks like me, and everything else is inherited from you." Su Ju didn't even look at Chen Cheng, and said, "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind. The son's current behavior is inseparable from your education."

"You..." Chen Cheng saw that he was being laughed at, and Xiaoer clapped his hands along with him. In a fit of anger, he pulled Su Ju over, and opened his mouth to cover his mouth.

Su Yu, who was unprepared, saw his two fathers kissing for the first time, and couldn't help being dumbfounded.Just when Su Yu's head stopped working, the group arrived at the East Sea in an instant.

Because of their stop and go, when they arrived, Qin Qing also led his soldiers to clean up the battlefield.

When Chen Cheng saw the confiscated booty, he looked around and found no gold, silver or jewelry. He asked curiously, "General Qin, is the theft not related to the captives?"

"General, this is exactly what the last general has not had time to report in the future." Qin Qing waved his hand and asked the soldiers to present the weapons they had handed over, and then continued: "The weapons that were handed over are all newly made recently, which explains why Mr. Cao No silver was found, because the gold and silver never left the city and were used."

"You mean, after they ransacked the bank, they started to find blacksmiths to make weapons, but isn't every weapon registered with the government?" Su Jue really suspected that Qin Qing was trying to excuse Cao Yuan.
