Chapter 141: Strangled on the Spot
Chapter 141: Strangled on the Spot
Mu Chuan, who was emo for a day, was resurrected with full health the next day.
He is no longer afraid of the king, but instead plays with it very enthusiastically.
To be precise, the king was having a lot of fun teasing him.
"Brother Ye!" Seeing Ye Yanxing appear, Mu Chuan happily shared with him, "I'm playing with the king."
"Yeah." Ye Yanxing glanced at the king who was in high spirits, "Don't pull its tail, it will bite you."
"Ok!"
Even if Ye Yanxing didn't remind him, Mu Chuan wouldn't dare to touch it.
Forget about the tail, he couldn't even touch the king's head!
No, he didn't even touch a single tiger hair!
"My king, can I touch the top of your head?" Mu Chuan asked, squatting in front of the king.
"Ouch!" The king took a step forward and roared at him.
Mu Chuan was so scared that he sat on the ground.
Then the king walked away with his head held high.
Before leaving, she glanced at Mu Chuan, and her eyes seemed to say, "You little bastard, you think you can touch me?"
It was not until the king completely walked out of the yard that Mu Chuan reacted. He felt relieved but also embarrassed.
At this time, Zhang Hengyu and Jiang Zekai happened to come to find Ye Yanxing.
"Oh, there's a new kid here, Your Highness?" Jiang Zekai couldn't help but joked when he saw Mu Chuan still sitting on the ground.
"Who, who is the kid!" Mu Chuan jumped up and glared at Jiang Zekai.
He has a good temper, but not everyone can tease him, okay? !
"Look at this temper, isn't he just a child?"
"You! You are so rude!" Mu Chuan couldn't say anything too rude, so he could only bluff like this.
"Hey, kid, I'm older than you, so shouldn't you respect the elders first?" Jiang Zekai kept teasing Mu Chuan with a naughty tone.
"I won't talk to you, huh!" Mu Chuan turned his head to the side, "Brother Ye, I'm going out first."
"Yeah." Ye Yanxing sat calmly in the pavilion drinking tea, ignoring their argument.
"Your subordinate greets the prince." Jiang Zekai walked over and saluted Ye Yanxing.
"Please sit down." Ye Yanxing raised his chin, poured another cup of tea, and pushed the seat opposite.
Jiang Zekai sat down at the opposite seat and took a sip of tea. "Good tea!"
"What do you want from me?" Ye Yanxing asked directly, and then poured him another cup of tea.
"Your Highness, I would like to ask for leave and return to the imperial city." Jiang Zekai spoke carefully.
"Going back for the New Year?"
"Yeah." He accepted the beating from his old father.
His father tried every means to keep him away from this vortex, but now he has run in on his own, so he will definitely be punished when he returns home this time.
"Go ahead. I'll give you a holiday until the Lantern Festival. Come back after the Lantern Festival." Ye Yanxing approved it directly.
"Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"How is the camp lately? Has anything happened?" Ye Yanxing asked as he blew a sip of the steaming tea.
"Everything is normal, except..." Jiang Zekai paused.
"What is it?"
Jiang Zekai stood up and knelt on one knee. "Just last month, my lord went to the military camp and when he checked the account books, he found that the accountant had falsified the accounts and left a lot of supplies to be sent to the north. It was my fault for not supervising properly. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
"Ye Zhao's people?" Ye Yanxing put down the teacup and looked at Jiang Zekai.
"This should be the work of Master Ye." Jiang Zekai went to investigate afterwards, and now Ye Jingwen has almost the final say on who is in charge of Beiliang.
"How was that person dealt with?"
"The young master was strangled to death on the spot." Jiang Zekai said and secretly glanced at Ye Yanxing.
He didn't know whether Fu Qianrun's action had been approved by Ye Yanxing. If not, would it be considered as overstepping one's authority?
However, Ye Yanxing did not have any extra expression, "Good kill, Ruyu's words are my words, you don't have to worry too much, just do as he says."
"Yes! I obey your command!" Jiang Zekai breathed a sigh of relief.
"Once you have arranged your affairs in the army, you can have your leave."
"Everything in the camp has been arranged!"
"Okay, then you'll start your vacation tomorrow. Oh, and by the way, I'll deduct your salary for half a year as a penalty."
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness!" This was already a very light punishment.
"Get up."
"Yes." Jiang Zekai sat back in his seat.
"So is the person who manages the account book now reliable? Who is it?"
"It's Yunji." Jiang Zekai replied, "The young master arranged for Yunji to take over this position a few days after he strangled the quartermaster."
Jiang Zekai was surprised when he saw Yun Ji. He didn't expect that he would choose to come to the military camp to be a small quartermaster, and he didn't expect that he could convince Master Yun.
The two had little interaction when they were in the imperial city. After all, Yun Ji, like Fu Qianrun, was a man of great learning. Their knowledge was well-known in the imperial city, and they were the best among their peers.
Jiang Zekai is a poor student and a playboy in the eyes of outsiders. He can't get along with Fu Qianrun and others.
I didn't expect things would develop like this now, they are actually working together.
Fortunately, Yunji does not have the pedantic air of a scholar, and is able to humble himself and do things, so they get along well at work.
"Yunji." When Ye Yanxing heard this name, he couldn't help but think of another person, "Does he have a brother named Yunxiao?"
Jiang Zekai thought for a moment, "I heard that Yunji has a cousin named Yunxiao, but he has not been in the imperial city since he was a child, and I have never met him."
Ye Yanxing nodded, "Okay, I understand."
"Give my regards to Minister Jiang for me, and I'll bring you some gifts later."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" This was a gift, and Jiang Zekai had no reason to refuse.
"Your Highness, why can't I see the king? Has he gone out?" The king hasn't been to the military camp for several days, and Jiang Zekai feels like he hasn't seen him for a long time.
"No, it's in Little Fatty's room." Ye Yanxing used his mental power to sense the king's location.
Just now, after the king went out, he went straight to find Xiaopang, and now he is having fun with Xiaopang.
Mu Chuan didn't even touch a hair of the king, but Xiaopang was lying on it and rolling around, even shaking its tail like a whip.
The king lay on the ground, and he had to be careful at all times to prevent the fat boy from falling down.
Ye Yanxing couldn't help but smile.
Jiang Zekai was a little curious about what he was laughing at, but he didn't dare to ask, so he just said, "Your Majesty, I'll go see the young master."
"Go."
In the room, Xiaopang was riding on the king, grabbing the king's tail and swinging it around for fun, "Hahahaha, Mao."
It was having so much fun that I kept patting its buttocks with my hands.
"Awoo~" The king lay there motionless and let him play with him, even his wooshes were gentler than usual.
The wet nurse just watched from the side, not daring to go any closer.
Because as soon as she came closer, the king grinned at her.
"My king, this is Young Master Manman." Jiang Zekai entered the room and walked straight up to them. He stroked the top of the king's head.
"Ouch!" The king turned around and glared at him, but he just glared at him. Although he was unhappy, he did not refuse.
The king probably thought that after ordering the two-legged beast around for so long, he should give him a little treat once in a while.
After all, there are not many people who can touch its head, and Jiang Zekai is one of them.
That was what Jiang Zekai obtained through many rounds of labor.
