Chapter 695: Dancing Princess vs. East Factory Admiral 55
Chen Lang: "It's okay, he won't eat even if I coax him."
Milk ball: "..."
"It will be hard for me to report to Changxi if you do this." Naituanzi simply put down the porcelain bowl containing the fish.
Chen Lang: "Who are you to her? Why do you need to report to her?"
Milk ball child said confidently: "You heard it too, she called me baby."
Chen Lang: "I can also call you baby."
The implication is that anyone can call someone that, and the word "baby" is not special.
Milk ball child hit the nail on the head: "Did she call you baby?"
Shen Lang: "She can call me husband."
The little girl crossed her arms over her chest and pouted: "I haven't even started yet."
Chen Lang remained calm and said, "I will skin anyone who cuts my beard."
"So, you like her very much?" Naituanzi looked at her with scrutiny.
Chen Lang: “You can say that.”
After saying this, he frowned, and finally remembered his bold words from a few days ago -
Is he crazy to discuss the issue of likes and dislikes with a little kid who still smells of milk?
It now appeared that he was indeed mad.
Milk ball picked up the fish soup again and said, "Since you like her, drink this bowl of fish soup. I fished in Changxi all afternoon and finally caught a fish."
"She fished it? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Chen Lang gave him a speechless look, picked up the fish soup and drank it all, then picked up the chopsticks and started eating the fish.
Milk ball was a little hurt: "Do you have to be so obvious about your discrimination?"
Shen Lang: "She is my future wife."
And you?
Which onion?
Naituanzi pursed his lips and stopped talking.
He was quiet for a rare moment, and Shen Lang took the time to look up at him.
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Milk ball said seriously: "I'm thinking about how to match Changxi and my brother."
"It seems that Xuanyuan Qinglan's skin is quite tight." Shen Lang said slowly.
Can withstand peeling.
The child was sensitive and heard the other meaning in his tone, and blinked:
"Are you very hostile to my brother?"
Chen Lang: "He is the one who is confused and insists on thinking about the impossible person."
"So you've already figured it out." Milk ball sighed.
Shen Lang felt a tightness in his chest.
The Northern Qi delegation stayed in Meng State for nearly two months, which was far beyond the normal visiting time. Even if it was for medical treatment, now that Xuanyuan Qinglan has recovered, it is time for them to leave, right?
But I just don’t want to.
He also sent his younger brother to assist.
Milk ball: "Don't worry, I'm on your side."
"Your brother doesn't help you, but helps me instead?" Shen Lang sneered.
Milk ball: "Whoever Changxi likes, I will help him."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Lang felt smooth all over.
Children's eyes are always sharp.
Because of this sentence, Shen Lang even looked at him with a much better attitude.
………
Golden Palace.
"Your Majesty, this is the memorial that Lord Shen asked me to submit."
Quan Jiu was ranked first among all officials and handed the memorial to Eunuch Zhou.
Chu Tuo hadn't seen her for a long time: "How is Lord Shen recovering?"
Quan Jiu's expression was serious, with sympathy flashing in his eyes:
"Not very good. The arrow wound is too severe, and the poison has been added. Ultimately, I've become physically weak. I'm afraid I won't be able to do strenuous exercise in the future."
Chu Tuo pretended to be sad: "What a pity for such a good person...Eunuch Zhou, send some excellent tonic to Lord Shen."
Both sides performed their own plays, and when the drama came to an end, Chu Tuo finally opened the memorial submitted by Chen Lang.
When he saw this, his face darkened.
The faces of all civil and military officials tightened, unable to resist the fear brought by the unknown.
"Prime Minister He, I heard that there's been a resolution to the incident where Lord Shen was assassinated in the street?"
Chu Tuo suddenly spoke, but he was directed at Prime Minister He.
Prime Minister He, under pressure, said, "Your Majesty, everyone knows that only the cavalry battalion has this mechanical crossbow."
"From what Prime Minister He said, I want to kill Lord Shen?" Wu Feihu stood up immediately after hearing this.
"No."
Prime Minister He handed over the case summary that had been prepared in advance.
"General Wu is loyal to Your Majesty, so he naturally wouldn't target the important officials of the Meng Kingdom. However, we must be on guard day and night, but it's hard to guard against thieves within our own ranks. After much investigation, I finally discovered that the people of Xiliang had contact with the cavalry battalion..."
"who?"
"Wu Song."
After he finished speaking, Wu Feihu's face changed drastically.
Chu Tuo raised his eyelids and asked, "So, what Prime Minister He is saying is that General Wu's son colluded with the people of Xiliang and planned to assassinate Lord Shen in the street?"
Prime Minister He cupped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Chu Tuo flipped through the evidence he presented, his face expressionless and his tone devoid of emotion:
"The evidence is quite complete..."
As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Feihu's face turned pale and he knelt down.
"Your Majesty, although my son may be a playboy, he would never do anything to collaborate with the enemy or betray his country. Please be careful and consider this!"
Everyone thought Chu Tuo would be angry, but he just glanced at the memorial.
"I am exhausted, let's adjourn the court."
………
“Thanks to Divine Doctor Shen’s brilliant plan, he was able to deliver the memorial to the Emperor ahead of time.”
Shen San stared at Quan Jiu with admiration.
Facing his praise, Quan Jiu remained calm and composed:
"I was just talking nonsense. It was you who found out that He Xiang bribed the witness."
Shen San did not drift: “Even if I find out, I will only report the evidence. It is hard to say whether His Majesty will believe it.”
Today in the court, the memorial handed over by Quan Jiu had already written down the results of Prime Minister He's investigation, anticipating every step of his plan, and even listed the witnesses and evidence clearly.
So Chu Tuo was not surprised at all when he heard Prime Minister He's investigation results.
The only difference was that the memorial included a list of people who had bribed witnesses and colluded with people from Xiliang.
Shen Lang's body recovered very quickly and he was able to walk a few steps. He sat at the head of the bed:
"Is it what I guessed?"
In order to allow Chen Lang to recover from his injuries, Quan Jiu expressly forbade him to participate in any investigations before he could go out, so he was not aware of most of the plans.
Quan Jiu snorted indifferently, "Hmm," and said, "In order to make this false accusation more convincing, Prime Minister He not only bribed the witnesses, but also found two scapegoats from Xiliang."
The corners of Chen Lang's mouth curled up: "Chu Tuo doesn't care whether Wu Song was framed or not, but he cares about the relationship between He Xiang and the Xiliang people."
In the capital, he had already almost wiped out all the spies in Xiliang. The ones who could still hide were all ruthless characters. But Prime Minister He just casually pulled out two scapegoats...
It goes without saying that one can guess what Chu Tuo is thinking.
Since you already knew the identity of the Xiliang spy, why didn't you report it to me?
Shen San: "He Xiang really lost more than he gained this time, and he actually shot himself in the foot."
He wanted to take the opportunity to weaken Wu Feihu's power, but it made Chu Tuo doubt himself. Compared with the internal strife in the court, Chu Tuo was obviously more wary of the developments of Northern Qi and Western Liang.
Shen Lang: "He is not wronged."
After all, he was the one who found the person.
Hearing this, Quan Jiu touched the tip of his nose guiltily.
Shen Lang narrowed his eyes slightly, and in an instant, he suddenly understood something.
"Did you find the Xiliang people?"
