Chapter 165: The Deputy General Who Does Not Follow the Ordinary Path [Thanks to Xian Da Miao for th
Scam!
Which bastard came up with the idea of using the seal of a military official to defraud bandits?
[Let me see who did it? Li Jun, the current commander of Beilang Pass. He was Jiang Hai's former deputy commander. After Jiang Hai was promoted, he became the commander of Beilang Pass.]
[When Jiang Hai was in Beilang Pass, Li Jun secretly used Jiang Hai's seal to deceive the bandits. He first sent a small team of soldiers with the latest weapons and armor, pretending to be the guards of the caravan, to go back and forth under the bandits' noses.]
[After two or three trips, the bandits will start to drool. Then they will go down the mountain to rob and ask about the origins of these armors and weapons.]
[The guards of the caravan said anything to survive, and they cleared out all the weapons.]
[These bandits followed the clues left by the guards to contact the commander of Beilang Pass, "Jiang Hai". Now it was time to test Li Jun's acting skills.]
[I reluctantly agreed to sell the bandits weapons and armor, but they had to pay a deposit of 50% first. The bandits paid it with a grin, but they were willing to do so, because the weapons and armor produced by the Ministry of War were good.]
[After getting the money, Li Jun just had to pretend to be missing. No bandit would dare to go to Beilang Pass to ask the guard of Beilang Pass for money.]
[That's not asking for money, that's asking for your life. ]
[This deputy general really doesn't follow the usual path. Official fraud is the most deadly. ]
Emperor Xuan pursed his lips tightly, or he was afraid that he would laugh.
This Li Jun is really a big treasure. He deceived the bandits very smoothly. After a series of combos, he did not lose anything but got a lot of money.
Do not!
It's not like everything is lost.
The reputation of Jiang Hai, the commander of Beilang Pass, is probably very bad among the bandits.
Jiang Hai looked up and was speechless. Li Jun, Li Jun, right!
His best brother and closest confidant.
Actually stabbed him in the back.
Wait, after the court session, he would go to the Shangshu to ask for leave, then ride alone on two horses and rush all the way to Beilang Pass to settle the account with Li Jun.
At least he should be beaten so hard that he cannot face anyone.
The Minister of War finally let go of the worry that had been in his throat.
The head of the Qi family looked as pale as death: Jiang Hai was not brought down, and he added the crime of raising an enemy to himself. What on earth is he trying to do?
As for the rest of the officials, they were all trying hard to hold back their laughter; it was truly ridiculous.
Xu Jinyu also pursed her lips, she was also afraid of laughing.
[Hahahaha...hahahaha...every cheated bandit's daily routine is to curse Jiang Hai. Some bandits even stab and beat villains.]
[Ask a shaman to perform a curse, invite a Taoist priest to perform a ritual, and curse Jiang Hai in the temple, which fully reflects the diversity of people's beliefs.]
There was more grief and anger on Jiang Hai's face, and he kept sneezing along with the grief and anger.
There are too many people cursing him behind his back.
Emperor Xuan continued to flip through the book in his hand, holding back his laughter and said, "Lord Jiang did not sell arms, it was the current commander of Beilang Pass who used Jiang Hai's name to deceive people, so..."
"Your Majesty~~~Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Jiang Hai was extremely grateful that his innocence was restored.
By the way, I would like to thank Mr. Xu in my heart.
But Li Jun still had to fight, otherwise he would be scolded in vain.
The head of the Qi family suddenly became alert at this time: "Your Majesty, even if Jiang Hai did not sell the weapons, what about the money he cheated? Li Jun would not swallow it all by himself!"
Yup!
Emperor Xuan's eyes lit up. He had cheated so many bandits, but where was the money?
There is a shortage of money everywhere in Daqian now.
Emperor Xuan lowered his head and continued to flip through the book in his hand.
Xu Jinyu's eyes were also sparkling as he looked at Emperor Xuan's hand.
[I'm too lazy to look through it, let's talk about money. ]
Emperor Xuan: I’m waiting for you to speak.
Officials: Lord Xu, please speak quickly, otherwise His Majesty will be embarrassed.
Emperor Xuan slowly flipped through the first book, then reached back and the inner guard handed him the second book.
Then the third, fourth, fifth...
The inner guards were also anxious and wanted to shout in Xu Jinyu's ear: Sir Xu, my notebook is almost gone, please tell me quickly!
After taking a look at Emperor Xuan's slightly blue face, Xu Jinyu was still guessing.
[What did the emperor see? His face turned blue. Will someone else be in trouble soon? ]
【Hurry up and say it! 】
Emperor Xuan's face turned from blue to red, and from red to black.
【Forget it, I'll see for myself.】
Without waiting for Emperor Xuan to speak, Xu Jinyu lowered his head again.
Emperor Xuan threw away the booklet in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief. He almost lost face.
[Oh my god! No wonder the emperor's face turned blue. Li Jun had no choice but to cheat people out of money. The food sent to Beilang Pass every year was not enough for the soldiers at Beilang Pass to eat.]
[Even if it was barely enough to eat, it wasn't good stuff. The old rice was considered good, but most of the food was moldy.]
[If a general had no conscience, he would let his soldiers starve. But Jiang Hai and Li Jun were both conscientious.]
[Jiang Hai put all his belongings on the line, but it was still not enough, so Li Jun said he could solve the problem, and then he really got some food.]
[Jiang Hai thought that Li Jun was going to threaten the wealthy people in the city and did not ask in detail.]
[What kind of people are these? They dare to take away the military rations, leaving the soldiers hungry. Are they really not afraid that the wolf riders on the grassland will break through the North Wolf Pass?]
At this moment, Emperor Xuan's face on the throne was really blue and was turning red, and the dragon chair under his hands was creaking as he squeezed it.
[Yes, even if the wolf riders on the grasslands broke through the North Wolf Pass, the unlucky ones would be ordinary people. Those who could move the military rations were definitely not ordinary people. Officials and noble families had guards, servants, and fast horses.]
[If the Wolf Riders really break through the North Wolf Pass, they can escape! If that doesn't work, they can surrender. This is the basic operation of the noble families.]
[Each elementary school student in China knows that soldiers are the ones who need to be treated kindly. Only when the soldiers are strong and powerful can other countries treat you politely.]
[If you go out, you are still superior to others. Don’t the people of Daqian understand this simple truth? ]
I understand! How can I not understand!
No matter how much I understand, I can't suppress the greed in my heart.
It can't beat the white money.
"How dare anyone of you touch the military rations!"
Emperor Xuan's voice was not loud, but it made everyone in the court kneel down.
The head of the Qi family looked ashen: I'm sorry, I don't know which unlucky guy will be implicated again.
Xu Jinyu also knelt down skillfully following everyone else.
However, the complaining voice in his heart still continued: [What's the point of moving military rations? Withholding military pay and eating empty pay...]
[So brave, dare to do anything! ]
At this moment, the common feeling of everyone in the room was: Ancestor, please stop adding fuel to the fire!
If I let you pour it more, there won’t be enough people in the room to kill.
"Internal Guards, check for me. If you find someone, arrest him for me. Don't give a shit about anyone. I will cut off the claws of anyone who dares to take action!"
Emperor Xuan was so furious that no one dared to say a word except Xu Jinyu.
[Hurry up and catch them. Once you catch them, you can leave the court. My knees hurt. ]
Yawn by the way.
Emperor Xuan turned to Xu Jinyu with an extremely loving look on his face, "Baby, Xu Jinyu is your baby."
It is better to discover and solve problems in the army early than to discover them after Beilang Pass has been breached.
This time, a lot of people will be killed, and the enthronement will be announced as soon as the new year begins.
When we were playing in the morning court today, everyone came out limping.
Of course, Xu Jinyu is not included.
Because when he was kneeling halfway, Emperor Xuan felt a headache because of Xu Jinyu's complaints about knee pain, so he directly ordered Eunuch Liu to send Xu Jinyu a chair.
Xu Jinyu was walking out in a leisurely manner, when an old man with gray hair stopped him.
[This limping person is trying to stop me, what's the big deal? 】
Hmm~~what’s the big deal?
The officials who were walking out slowed down their pace at the same time.
After being scared for most of the day, just relax!
The old man smiled and stepped forward, bowed and said, "Master Xu, today is my daughter's engagement day. I have always admired you, Master Xu. I wonder if you can meet me today and let me see the elegance of the first female official of Daqian."
Xu Jinyu's smile froze on her face.
[Of course I can, but who are you? I don’t know you! ]
[Also, even though you're praising me, I'm so embarrassed that I want to dig my toes into the ground.]
The expression on the old man's face also froze. After serving in the same court for so many days, Lord Xu did not recognize his superior.
"Pfft..."
“Puff…”
····
The officials with low sense of humor have already started laughing.
