Treacherous ministers have deep routines

It was dusk, the surroundings were groggy, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and there was a smell of sweat in the farmland of the city wall.

Wearing a jacket and holding a saber in his hand, Wu De stood firmly on the ridge of the field, looking at the endless farmland in the distance.

Thousands of soldiers under him are farming, and Wu De has lost count, how many days and months he has been on the battlefield, but in these days and months, Wu De did not fight on the battlefield, but worked with the farmland.

"Crack..."

The saber was clenched slightly, making a slight noise. Wu De's face remained motionless, but his wrist was firmly grasped, shaking slightly while holding the saber, as if he was restraining something.

He knew it himself, from the first day he surrendered to Wei Man, Wu De escaped again and again, and Wei Man was a very suspicious person, so naturally he would not let go of his guard against Wu De.

Sending him to "farm" in this way is probably a matter of grace.

But Wu De is not reconciled, now he is in his thirties, his age does not wait for anyone, unlike those generals who are young and promising, he can still fight on the battlefield for a few years, if there is no achievement, I am afraid that he will really die in the future I'm going home to farm.

Don't look at Wu De, who looks a little gentle, like a Confucian scholar, but the energy in his heart is not small.

Wu De squinted his eyes, staring at the endless farmland.

"General..."

"General?"

"General Wu!"

Wu De was immersed in his own thoughts, and was suddenly awakened by the voice next to his ear. He quickly came back to his senses, put away the dangerous expression on his face, and said with a gentle smile, "What's the matter?"

"General, look, it's the flame!"

"Killing sound."

"It's up!"

Wei Man personally led the army and sent four famous generals to guard the four city gates in the southeast and northwest. Huaizhong has already become a thing in his pocket, so how could it not be possible to fight?

Now the distant city has been immersed in the sound of killing, Wu De listened to the sound of killing, closed his eyes, and then said softly: "Continue to plow the field, if you are tired, you can rest for a while. "

When the soldiers around him heard this, they immediately said unwillingly: "My lord, there has already been a fight in this city. If you can catch the traitor who has usurped the emperor, it will be a great achievement. My lord is willing to bow down here and plow the fields, Is such a great achievement to be robbed by others!? My lord, I really don’t care for you..."

not worth!

Before he finished speaking, "Shut up!"

The soldier was startled, and when he looked up, he saw the always gentle lord squinting his eyes, which were filled with a "bloody light", staring at him fiercely.

The soldier was too frightened to say anything, Wu De slowly put away the cruelty on his face, and then returned to his usual low-key and gentle manner, and said earnestly: "Don't say this again in the future, my Wu De is loyal to the Lord, Follow the Hussar General, be loyal and unambiguous, if the Duke of Wei asked me to plow the fields here, I will plow the fields here, and if the Duke of Wei asked me to carry water here, I will carry the water here. This is the sincerity of my Wude Heart, do you understand?"

The words of Wu De are even better than the words sung, and the words are sincere, without any adulteration. When the soldiers heard it, they couldn't help but be impressed by the integrity of Wu De.

"My lord, the brothers recognize your words!"

"Yes, yes! The lord is very energetic, and he will definitely achieve great things in the future. We brothers will follow the lord, and we will never go wrong!"

"My lord is wise!"

Wu De said that, in fact, Zizi was also dissatisfied in his heart, but he knew that no matter how he refused to accept or resentment, it would be useless.

Wu De nodded, and said lightly: "Forget it, don't talk anymore, the sky is getting darker and darker, after finishing these tasks, let's go back."

"Yes, General."

Everyone hurriedly dispersed and prepared to work separately.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, Wu De wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, turned around and prepared to pack up his things and leave. As soon as the sun rises tomorrow, he will start working in the farmland again.

Wu De bent down to pick up the water bag on the ground, at this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of "rustling...".

"Snapped!"

As soon as Wu De grasped the sword at his waist, he was about to draw the sword. A soldier around him saw Wu De being on guard, and said casually: "My lord, you don't have to be so careful. The battlefield is over there!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the Huaizhong city gate in the distance. The sounds of fighting and nahan continued, and the military flags fluttered in one piece, like a fiery snake filling the sky, swallowing the entire heroic battlefield.

The soldier smiled and said, "The weather is getting hotter now. I'm afraid some small beasts around here have started to work. A deer came a few days ago and trampled our farmland."

The soldier said nonchalantly, but Wu De was on guard. After all, he was naturally suspicious no less than Wei Man.

Hearing the soldier's words, Wu De still had some doubts in his heart. The bushes only moved a bit, and he didn't move a little while talking to the soldier. If it was an animal, how could it be so smart? It seemed that he was afraid of being discovered. .

Wu De remained calm, deliberately inserted the saber back with a "whoosh" and said loudly to the soldier: "It turned out to be a little beast, that's all, let's go back."

In the grass, a fat man with muddy face squatted there.

Although the man's face was covered with mud and dirt, he looked like he was used to being pampered in daily life. His skin was tender and his flesh had never had a callus. Looking around, he covered his mouth and nose, held his breath, not even daring to take a breath.

Chen Zhonglu!

It was undoubtedly Chen Zhonglu who had escaped.

Chen Zhonglu sent a large number of soldiers to fight against Wei Man, but he escaped secretly, preparing to escape from Huaizhong and find his own way out.

Chen Zhonglu disguised himself and squatted in the grass. Who knew that Wu De was actually leading the soldiers to farm here, so he was almost discovered.

He didn't know that Wu De had already spotted him, but he just kept his expression on. Hearing the sound of drawing up weapons and the sound of soldiers going away, Chen Zhonglu slowly let go of his guard and heaved a sigh of relief.

After waiting to confirm that there was no sound outside, Chen Zhonglu crawled out of the grass with his head poking around.

Chen Zhonglu is not as good as Chen Ji. He is pampered and pampered on weekdays, and he is an extremely rich son of the Chen family. No one followed, crawling out of the grass, without anyone's support, it was like a zombie, staggering and crawling out.

Chen Zhonglu stumbled out, his hands were covered with mud, he almost fell to the ground, he propped up with his hands, his chin gnawed some mud, just about to rejoice that he didn't fall completely, when he heard a "whoosh".

The breeze on the neck moved slightly, and a trace of coolness swept up, Chen Zhonglu's scalp was numb, he shivered suddenly, and slowly turned his head away.

He saw a tall, smiling man standing behind him, dressed in military uniform, holding a saber, which was out of its sheath, and was resting on his neck.

Isn't it just Wude who went back and forth? !

"My lord, it's really the thief Chen Zhonglu!"

The soldiers turned back together with Wu De, but Chen Zhonglu hadn't reacted yet, "Wow!", Wu De had given an order, and the soldiers immediately swarmed up and escorted Chen Zhonglu directly.

Chen Zhonglu is like meat on a chopping board.

No, fish.

Chen Zhonglu is the fish on the chopping board. He just fished it out of the sea, and he is "clacking" on the chopping board, jumping violently, but what can he do?

Wu De drew his saber together with a "chi--", walked over, stood condescendingly in front of Chen Zhonglu, gave a "tsk tsk", and said with a chuckle: "The rear general? Oh no, no, it can't be called the rear general anymore, is it?" Overstepping the Son of Heaven, ignorant of etiquette, slaughtering the Tianchang thief Chen Zhonglu."

Chen Zhonglu never expected that he escaped the generals from all sides, but was arrested in the farmland of the city.

Chen Zhonglu struggled violently, and said: "Wu De! I respect you as a hero! In this way...you let me go, and I will immediately make you a Hussar General, no, directly canonize you as a Great General! Gold seal and purple ribbon, overpowering Wei It's better to be first-class Man than to suffer under Wei Man's hands! From now on, your martial virtue will be my great general, holding the three armies in your hands and invincible, how about it?"

Wu De chuckled softly, "Heh...", raised his hand, lightly brushed his jacket with the back of his hand, and said, "Three Armies? Where are the Three Armies?"

Now that Chen Zhonglu has been captured and tied up, it is just an expedient measure to talk about the three armies.

As soon as Wu De pointed it out, Chen Zhonglu's face was so blue that he couldn't even hide the mud on his face.

Wu De spoke harshly, squinted his eyes, and said righteously: "My Wu De is loyal to the Wu family, how can I be bought by any general without a general?! Come, let me escort Chen Zhonglu, a rebellious minister and traitor, to this general. I want to report to Duke Wei personally."

When Chen Zhonglu heard it, his whole body seemed to lose all his strength, and he was pushed down in an instant, as if he had been cramped, his whole body was trembling, and he almost knelt on the ground.

The soldiers were ordered to set up Chen Zhonglu and leave. Only then did Chen Zhonglu react, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Wu De!! Wu De—I named you a great general! No, no, Wu De , I named you Prime Minister!! Prime Minister! Isn’t it okay to be Prime Minister?! Wu De—”

Among the government offices.

"Report--!"

"General Hussars! General Wu is back!"

The soldiers rushed in from outside the government office, ran all the way to the front, knelt down, cupped their hands and said, "General Wu is back, escorting... the traitor Chen Zhonglu."

Wei Man squinted his eyes. Lu Jinyu had already given him a "vaccination". This was obviously the second time he heard about it, so Wei Man was not very surprised.

Wei Man glanced sideways at Lin Rang beside him.

He was not surprised, let alone Lin Rang, and Lin Rang was not surprised at all. He still had a paralyzed face, his eyes were calm and indifferent, and he nodded to Wei Man with a calm look.

Wei Man narrowed his eyes, and said in a gloomy voice, "Please."

"Respect!"

The soldiers echoed loudly, and then retreated quickly, but after a while, they heard the sound of "tattling" footsteps, Wu De, dressed in military armor, escorted a heavily tied man, and walked in from the outside.

Everyone fixed their eyes and saw that it was indeed Wu De and Chen Zhonglu who came in.

Chen Zhonglu didn't look like a "son of heaven", he looked very downcast, like a rooster fighting worship, his hair was pecked all over, he walked in after being pushed and shoved.

"Gudong!"

The soles of his feet softened, and he fell directly to the ground, and a five-body throwing gift came.

Wei Man's face was very gloomy just now, but he became very friendly in an instant. He ignored Chen Zhonglu, instead stood up in person, walked in front of Wu De, held Wu De's hand kindly, and said with a smile: "Wu De brother!"

Wu De was flattered for a moment, and quickly said respectfully: "My lord."

Wei Man said with a smile: "Brother Wude made a great contribution this time, and this monstrous achievement falls on your shoulders."

As he said, his palm also fell on Wu De's shoulder, and he tapped three times with "pa, pa, pa".

Wu De remained calm, how thoughtful he was, he could naturally see Wei Man's "hypocrisy", so he didn't dare to take it too seriously, and hurriedly said humbly: "What credit can the humble general have? It's not that the lord planned the strategy and the humble general Will it be deliberately placed in the farmland of the city?"

When Wu De said this, it was like putting a high hat on Wei Man, which is called a high.

Wu De also said: "The humble general has always known that he is the most ineffective in the camp. His kung fu is not as good as others, and he has no great military skills. He is always lazy and slack on weekdays. He is really not worthy of the lord's attention. But the lord did not give up, and made the best use of everything, so that lazy people like me guarded the city and farmland, and deliberately slack off to show the rebellious officials and thieves. How dare the general monopolize it? He is not humble and humble, and he is indeed ashamed of it!"

After Wu De's words, Wei Man was really, really embarrassed to "target" him, and his words could bring the dead to life.

Wei Man didn't speak immediately, but Lin Rang who was on the side suddenly let out a "chih..." laugh.

In the silent government office, solemn and solemn, Lin Rang was suddenly poked at the point of laughter, and laughed abruptly, and everyone immediately turned their heads to look, staring closely at Lin Rang who suddenly laughed.

Lin Rang looked at the crowd very indifferently, and looked back at the big guy very calmly. His smile seemed to be a glimpse, fleeting, and disappeared completely, invisible.

Everyone looked suspicious, they didn't know what Lin Rang was laughing at, could it be...

Are you laughing at Wu De's "hypocrisy"?

Who doesn't know the hypocrisy of martial arts?But no one said anything, just quietly listening to such hypocritical words.

Of course, in the face of such hypocritical words, no one will expose them, because no one does not like to hear them.

But Lin Rangfei wanted to be independent, and laughed out loud, as if he was slapping Wude in the face for an instant.

Wu De's face was embarrassing, he had more than confidence, but he didn't know that he was exposed in an instant, and his face was burning hot.

In fact, everyone misunderstood Lin Rang. Lin Rang didn't want to embarrass Wu De, he laughed because he really wanted to laugh.

Lin Rang listened to Wu De's praises, but felt that Wu De's eloquence was unmatched. If it was an imperial examination, he would definitely be able to enter high school.

Lin Rang's smile is so crooked from birth, so what can be done?

Wei Man coughed quickly and said, "Wu De, you did a good job this time, you can... deeply understand the meaning of loneliness."

"laugh……"

Lin Rang laughed again.

Everyone: "..."

Everyone silently glanced at Lin Rang, last moment they didn't give Wu De any face, this moment they didn't even give Wei Man any face.

Wei Man was very helpless, and was "made fun of" by Lin Rang when he just said something on the scene.

Lin Rang really couldn't hold back, today may be the time he laughed the most, seeing Wei Man and Wu De face to face hypocrisy, this scene is simply a rare scene!

Wei Man coughed and said, "Gu will reward you a lot, but now you are tired, you should step back and have a rest."

Wu De lowered his head, looking very responsible, clasped his fists together, and said: "Your humble general respects you!"

He lowered his head and covered his face. In fact, his expression was not so responsible. He personally captured Chen Zhonglu, a rebel and traitor. This achievement will not be buried under any circumstances.

There was a trace of a smile on the corner of Wu De's mouth, his turning point... is coming.

Wei Man asked Wu De to retreat first, then sneered at Chen Zhonglu and said: "Come here, arrest this treacherous and treacherous minister and traitor, and put him in the sky prison, so that he can be guarded. In the future... escort the Xuanyang capital, and hand it over to the emperor himself!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers rushed over and pulled Chen Zhonglu up from the ground.

Chen Zhonglu was frightened and shouted: "Wei Gong! Wei Gong! I... No, I have something to discuss with you... Wei Gong! Let me go, Wei Gong, I support you as the emperor! Wei Gong..."

Wei Man squinted his eyes, said unmoved and darkly, "Stop him."

The soldiers quickly blocked Chen Zhonglu's mouth to prevent him from shouting.

Soon, everyone withdrew from the government office, and went to do what they had to do. After all, there was still a lot of follow-up to be done after today's battle.

Everyone left, and only Wei Man and Lin Rang were left in the government office.

Lin Rang sat on the side table, looked at Wei Man very calmly, and said lightly: "Wei Gong asked Chen Zhonglu to be gagged, maybe he was moved by what he said?"

Wei Man laughed, looked at Lin Rang's eyes rather "doting", and said, "You saw it."

How could Wei Man not be moved by the position of the Son of Heaven?

But is it true that anyone can sit on the throne of the Son of Heaven?

Just like Chen Zhonglu, if he didn't have real strength, then the position of the Son of Heaven would be like a cauldron of fire. Chen Zhonglu had already thrown himself into the cauldron of fire and turned into a cauldron of meat paste. How could Wei Man be so stupid as to follow in his footsteps?

Wei Man said lightly: "The heart is moving, but Gu is not stupid."

As he spoke, he walked up to Lin Rang and said with a smile, "If Gu Ruo is stupid, he will only be in front of Lord Inspector, isn't he?"

Lin Rang simply stood still to Wei Man's "sweet talk". Wei Man had already exerted his [-]% charm, but got nothing, so he could only touch his nose, resentful.

Lin Rang also stood up, walked up and down twice, and said, "How does Duke Wei plan to reward Wu De?"

Wude.

That's right, the most difficult thing now is not to deal with Chen Zhonglu.

Chen Zhonglu usurped the emperor, and that was to be dealt with by the emperor, and Wei Man didn't need to worry about it.

The most difficult thing is Wude.

Wei Man had already arranged everything, but he never expected that Wu De would come out at the last moment and pick up a big melon to eat!

Now that Wu De has made such great achievements under the eyes of everyone, Wei Man may not be able to suppress him. If the suppression is too obvious, too selfish, and unable to convince the public, it will be Wei Man himself who will be in trouble.

Wei Man sneered, and said, "Wu De? There's nothing wrong with this, just reward him casually. I'll give him gold and silver, but this military power..."

Wei Man's smile stopped abruptly, even if it was a sneer, all of them were collected, and he said sinisterly: "Don't think about it."

Chen Zhonglu was defeated, and because the Huaizhong army lost their "Son of Heaven", Lin Rangling Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You's uncle and nephew were in charge of public opinion, and they had spread the news that Chen Zhonglu had abandoned the soldiers and fled privately.

In this way, the Huaizhong Army has completely seen Chen Zhonglu's face, and there is no need to fight any more. Wei Man has already recruited him to surrender, so it doesn't cost a single soldier.

If the original text is the same as Yuan You's uncle and nephew, he came today to report this matter.

After hearing this, Wei Man was in a good mood. After all, apart from fighting on the battlefield, there is also a lot of preparation in the early stage and cleaning the battlefield in the later stage, which is very troublesome.

If the original text is delicate and thoughtful, Yuan You looks like a stupid big man, but he is also meticulous. The two cooperate seamlessly, which also saves Wei Man a lot of trouble.

Wei Man smiled and said, "It's really a blessing to have the help of the two gentlemen!"

Wei Man, who never needs money to praise others, just opens his mouth, and now he catches Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You and praises him endlessly.

After all, this is also one of Wei Man's strategies to win over celebrities.

To make all the celebrities feel that they would not be able to live without him as the lord!

Wei Man said again: "The people's livelihood in Huaizhong City, and Mr. Lai have bothered a lot."

Ruo Ruo and Yuan You hurriedly cupped their hands together and said, "My lord's words are serious, and this humble minister will definitely do his best and be ashamed of himself."

Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You just left, and then someone walked into the government office.

After all, it is eventful and things are busy.

Wu Yan walked in and said, "My lord, why don't you go and see Chen Zhonglu in prison?"

Wei Man asked strangely, "Chen Zhonglu?"

Wu Yan nodded and said: "Chen Zhonglu was restless in prison, seeing Tian'er insulting the lord, and making many excessive demands."

Chen Zhonglu was arrested and imprisoned, and no one took care of him after that. Wei Man was busy with Huaizhong affairs, and wanted to personally escort Chen Zhonglu into the capital after the affairs were settled.

Who knew that Chen Zhonglu would be wrong, thinking that Wei Man didn't deal with him because he was afraid of his influence, so he didn't dare to deal with him.

Speaking of which, Chen Zhonglu's power, Huaizhong has already fallen, so the power he has left is the Chen family's power.

The Chen family has three generations and three princes. They are among the ministers and have accumulated a lot of prestige. It can be said that they are loved by the people and highly respected.

But no matter how highly respected the Chen family was, they couldn't help Chen Zhonglu and Chen Ji being such "prodigals".

Chen Ji's prodigal is still a prodigal in secret. He will always treat the common people well and continue to win people's hearts, while Chen Zhonglu's prodigal is simply lavish and unscrupulous.

Therefore, Chen Zhonglu's influence has long been defeated by Chen Zhonglu, so what confidence do they have?

But Chen Zhonglu just couldn't understand the practice, if he could understand, he wouldn't overstep the emperor and become the target of public criticism.

Chen Zhonglu thought that Wei Man did not dare to deal with himself because of the reputation of the Chen family.

On the first day in prison, I was trembling and scared to death.

The next day, the third day, and the fourth day, nothing happened for ten days in a row, so Chen Zhonglu became more at ease, feeling that Wei Man didn't dare to control himself, and became more and more unscrupulous.

in the prison.

Chen Zhonglu half-lyed in the sky prison, as if he regarded the sky prison as his own house, reclined, with his head propped up, looking like an old man, with his legs crossed, his feet dangling, and his tone pulling the sky.

"Come! Come!!"

"It's so hot!"

"I don't know if Gu Zuo is afraid of heat?"

Although Chen Zhonglu was dragging, he no longer dared to call himself "Zhen" in his tone, and turned into "Gu".

Chen Zhonglu yelled and said, "It's so hot, get some honey for Gu to quench his thirst!"

"Squeak-"

He was talking, when he heard the sound of the door opening, he thought it was a soldier coming, but he heard the sound of "tattling" footsteps, very steady, not the footsteps of a prisoner, he looked back.

"Wei Man?!"

Chen Zhonglu suddenly jumped up from the ground, and looked at Wei Man who entered the cell in shock.

Wei Man and Lin Rang stood at the prison door, looking at Chen Zhonglu through the prison door.

When Chen Zhonglu saw Wei Man, he immediately rushed over and said, "Wei Man, my Chen family has an amazing reputation, are you afraid? If you are afraid, let me out quickly!"

Wei Man looked at Chen Zhonglu indifferently, but didn't speak immediately.

Chen Zhonglu laughed grimly, stood with his hands behind his back, and said, "Don't underestimate the majesty of my Chen family. Even if you escort me back to Beijing, what can the little emperor do to me?! It's not because I am the Chen family." For the sake of the son-in-law, just find some excuses and let me go?"

Wei Man sneered, but couldn't hold back, Lin Rang said indifferently: "I haven't seen you for a few days, this Chen Zhonglu, I'm afraid he has become a fool."

"What did you say!?"

Chen Zhonglu's eyes widened angrily, "Boom!" He rushed to the prison door, grabbed the fence, and glared at Lin Rang.

Lin Rang didn't take a step back, and he wasn't frightened by Chen Zhonglu's arrogance at all. He said indifferently: "When you are about to die, who gave you such courage?"

"W-what...?"

When Chen Zhonglu heard the words "death is imminent", his heart suddenly trembled. He tightened his grip on the fence, his voice trembling, and said, "Death...death...impossible, you lied to Gu! What are you? !? Wei Man, you are only the descendant of the eunuch, and Gu is the descendant of the Sangong, even if the emperor does not consider it for my sake, but for the sake of my Chen family, he will..."

Wei Man smiled seriously, and said hoarsely: "Yes, I will also... leave you a whole body."

"Gudong!"

When Chen Zhonglu heard the word "whole corpse", he couldn't hold it back. He fell down and sat on the ground, the chains on his body made a "crash", stared blankly at the ceiling of the cell, and said tremblingly.

"Do not……"

"impossible……"

"I am Chen's... Di, son..."

Chen Zhonglu muttered, suddenly got up from the ground, grabbed the fence of the cell and shook it hard, shouting: "I want to drink honey!! Did you hear that?!! I am the son of the Chen family! I want to drink honey!" Quick! Bring honey to Gu! Gu, want, drink..."

When he said this, he suddenly fell backwards with a "gudong!" without any warning, and his mountain-like body fell to the ground with a "coax!", blood spurted out of his mouth, and he remained motionless.

Lin Rang quickly said, "Open the door."

The prisoner was also taken aback, and hurriedly opened the cell door. Lin Rang strode in, squatted down, and felt the pulse on Chen Zhonglu's neck.

Chen Zhong sprayed blood at the crossing, fell to the ground, blood was sprayed everywhere, Lin Rang's white robe was stained with blood, even his hands were stained with blood, the contrast of red and white made Lai shocking.

Wei Man hurried in and said, "How is it?"

Lin Rang didn't speak, but shook his head.

Wei Man was taken aback, "Boom!" He slammed the floor with a loud sound, and said in an extremely hoarse voice, "It's all Gu's fault, Gu shouldn't have just now..."

Wei Man just said that he would leave the whole body for Chen Zhonglu, apparently because he had stimulated Chen Zhonglu, so he suddenly died of blood.

It was obviously inappropriate for Chen Zhonglu to die like this before he arrived in the capital, and Wei Man had already handed over the documents to the capital, saying that he was going to escort the rebellious officials and thieves to the capital.

Lin Rang said calmly: "You can't blame Wei Gong entirely. Chen Zhonglu is depressed, not because of Wei Gong's words."

It turned out that Chen Zhonglu was not so carefree in the cell these days. Although he looked very arrogant on the surface, he was terribly afraid in his bones, and he was suspicious.

Not only that, since the formation of the allied army, Chen Zhonglu has been very worried, and his army has been retreating steadily. Such a big blow is simply unacceptable for a pampered son of the Chen family.

It was inevitable that Chen Zhonglu would bleed. Although Wei Man was a bit mean, it cannot be said that Wei Man was mad at Chen Zhonglu.

Lin Rang stood up, took out the handkerchief in his arms, wiped the back of his hands indifferently, and said, "Dr. Wei will send Chen Zhonglu's body to the capital next day."

Wei Man nodded and said, "That's all."

Lin Rang said: "Duke Wei, rest assured, the rebellion has been quelled, and the owner will not care about these things."

Wei Man sent people to the capital of Xuanyang and brought Chen Zhonglu's body with him. As expected, the little emperor did not blame Wei Man. Not only that, but also sent envoys to praise Wei Man and the coalition army for their loyalty, and brought a lot of wine and meat to reward the alliance. military.

With the help of Yuan Wenruo and Yuan You, the people's hearts in Huaizhong quickly stabilized, and Wei Man and others took control of Huaizhong and took charge of the "government office".

What can the government office in Huaizhong be?Naturally, it is the imperial palace on Chenzhong Road in the past.

After Chen Zhonglu usurped the throne, he ascended the throne as the emperor, overhauled the civil works, made the imperial palace majestic and luxurious, and built various altars.

Standing in the main hall of the imperial palace, Wei Man looked up at the dragon chair in his hand, his eyes were calm and somewhat leisurely, he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Squeak-"

There was no one around, and at this moment, a soft knock on the door was suddenly heard, and someone rushed in from outside the hall.

Wei Man was so vigilant, he heard the movement immediately, but he didn't attack immediately.

Someone rushed into the main hall, stood in the dark hall, touched Wei Man's back, and was about to "make trouble"!

At this moment, Wei Manyou said leisurely: "Who allowed you to come to Huaizhong, why don't you stay in Luzhou well, what are you doing when you come out?"

The visitor failed to make a sneak attack, so he quickly withdrew his hand, pretended to be "obedient", tied a lock of his hair and "tweaked" it gently, and said with a ladylike face, "Lingxiang pays homage to Duke Wei!"

Wei Man turned around slowly and looked at the person coming.

The visitor is only in her teens, isn't she Wu Yan's precious sister, the jewel in the palm of Wu Wentai, the Polu general, Xiao Lingxiang?

Lingxiang has been following his father Wu Wentai in Luzhou. Now that Huaizhong has won a great victory, Wu Wentai wanted to come here in person, but his body is useless, and he was too brave to kill the enemy in the early years, and he was always desperate. There are many root causes of diseases, and when I get older, I have suffered from many of them.

Xiao Lingxiang then seized the opportunity, took the place of his father, escorted a lot of supplies, and took the opportunity to come out naughty.

Wei Man saw that he was swaying, and said, "It seems that you are not here to deliver supplies."

Xiao Lingxiang lowered her voice, looked eccentric, and said with a smile: "Duke Wei, is General Wu De here?"

Wei Man smiled and said: "Gu doesn't know, Gu is busy every day, why don't you ask the governor of Luzhou?"

When Xiao Lingxiang heard it, she made a bitter face, shook her little hand vigorously, and said, "No, no, no, please don't let the governor know!"

Wei Man knew why and asked, "Why?"

Xiao Lingxiang pouted her lips and said, "Isn't it obvious, the governor doesn't like to see Uncle Wude."

Wei Man still asked knowingly, "Why?"

Xiao Lingxiang curled her lips and said, "Because... because of uncle's old age!"

Wei Man shook his head helplessly, and said: "Since you know he is old, why are you still like this? Besides, the governor didn't ask you to associate with Wu De, is it just because Wu De is old?"

Xiao Lingxiang just picked up an "insignificant" and said.

Wei Man turned around, continued to stare at the dragon chair, and said in a hoarse voice: "Lingxiang, you are still too young, you should know... you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart."

While talking, someone walked into the hall, isn't it Lin Rang?

As soon as Lin Rang came in, Xiao Lingxiang immediately jumped up, as if she had grown a spring, jumped up in an instant, hung on Lin Rang like a sloth, and said happily: "Young master!"

Lin Rang hugged Xiao Lingxiang quickly, for fear that she would fall and break.

Wei Man just pretended to be an expert outside the world, saying something like "knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing their hearts", but in the blink of an eye, he saw Xiao Lingxiang getting close to Lin Rang, his heart was sour, and he rushed over to separate the two .

He also guarded Lin Rang behind him, and said to Xiao Lingxiang: "The banquet for the host to reward the allies is about to begin, Lingxiang, go to the banquet quickly."

Xiao Lingxiang was separated, she hummed, and said, "Stingy."

After saying that, he turned around and Shi Shiran walked out of the hall.

Then Wei Man hurriedly checked Lin Rang, and Lin Rang said flatly, "The Lingxiang is so small, how could it be damaged? It's fine."

Wei Man thought to himself, it's not because of that, but to see if Lin Rang has been molested by that little girl, Xiao Lingxiang.

The host's banquet to reward the allied forces is about to begin, and it will be held in the "Imperial Palace" in Huaizhong, with a great momentum.

Wei Man and Lin Rang arrived in the banquet hall, everyone was already there, and the most star-studded one among them was naturally Wu De, who had made great contributions this time.

Wu De used to be the head of farming, who can take a fancy to him?

But today is different.

Wu De made great achievements in arresting Chen Zhonglu, and even the little emperor ordered to praise Wu De.

Wu De is not as high-minded as other people. Although many people who flatter him look down on him on weekdays, none of Wu De dislikes him. Very hard to wear.

Wu De smiled modestly, Wei Man and Lin Rang walked in, Wu De was the first to find out, he hurried forward and cupped his hands and said, "Master."

He said, knelt down and kowtowed.

It was only then that the crowd discovered Wei Man and Lin Rang, and rushed to meet General Hussars.

Wei Man was quite satisfied with Wu De's humility, and said with a smile: "They are all my brothers, so there is no need to be too polite, let's get up."

Wei Man became the chief, and then continued: "Today is the Lord's grace, to reward the allies. Thanks to you these days, the rebellion can be suppressed and the world will be peaceful. I, Wei Man, am here, and I must thank you all!"

As he spoke, he stood up to thank him, and everyone quickly followed suit, saying that they dared not.

"The lord's words are serious!"

"We can have what we have today, thanks to the lord's ability to lead the army!"

"Exactly, the leader is wise!"

Wei Man smiled in satisfaction, sat down again, and said, "Wu De."

Wu De hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "The humble general is here!"

It's time to reward Wude.

Wu De has been waiting for today for a long time, and his hands are trembling slightly, this is his chance to stand up.

With a "kind" smile on his face, Wei Man said: "My lord has something to say, you have made a lot of contributions to martial arts this time, and you can just say what kind of reward you want."

The little emperor didn't say what kind of reward he would give Wu De, but just told Wei Man to let him figure it out.

Hearing this, Wu De raised his head, glanced at Wei Man briefly, and quickly lowered his head dutifully.

The host didn't mention the specific rewards, the authority was handed over to Wei Man, Wu De was a smart man, if he opened his mouth and wanted to be promoted to military power, he would definitely be feared by Wei Man, and he would have to work under Wei Man in the future, the gain outweighed the loss.

Wu De thought about it carefully, but he couldn't think well for a while, his eyes wandered wildly, trying to figure out a way to not suffer for himself and not offend Wei Man.

Wu De thought so, and suddenly saw a person waving to him in the corner.

The man was sitting between Wu Yan and Lu Jinyu, but he was born in his teens.
