Chapter 115: The Trick
Geng Jing interrogated the prisoners all night last night and hasn't had time to rest yet.
He looked at the charges on the table and frowned.
"Subordinate Ning Chen, please see Geng Ziyi!"
Ning Chen's voice sounded outside the door.
Geng Jing raised his head from his guilt, his brows furrowed deeper, like the skin of an egg.
"Come in!"
Ning Chen walked in, then looked around, looking for his reward.
But after searching around, I found nothing? Then he turned his attention to Geng Jing and was slightly startled.
Because the way Geng Jing looked at him was very unpleasant.
Ning Chen scratched his head, not knowing how serious it was!
"Ning Chen, how brave are you to tease me and Commander Nie?"
Ning Chen was slightly startled. It turned out that Geng Jing's face was not good-looking. Was it because of this incident?
Thinking of Geng Jing licking Renzhong Huang last night and saying it tasted good, with a smell of apples, Ning Chen couldn't hold it back for a moment and burst into laughter.
"You still dare to laugh? Don't think that because His Majesty shows you favor, I won't dare to deal with you?"
Seeing that Ning Chen was still smiling, Geng Jing clenched his back molars angrily.
Ning Chen didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore. After all, Geng Jing was the boss, and it was very easy to discipline him.
His expression became serious, "Master Geng, you have really misunderstood me... In fact, I am saving your and Commander Nie's lives."
Geng Jing snorted coldly and said: "Make it up, keep making it up...I'll give you a chance. If you don't make up a convincing reason for me today, I'll let you have a taste of Xingzhang."
Ning Chen said seriously: "Master Geng, I really didn't make it up... Just think about it, the elixirs your Majesty took were also mixed with the things you took."
"I didn't eat it, I just licked it!"
Geng Jing defended himself angrily.
Ning Chen pursed his lips tightly, fearing that he would sound like a pig when he laughed.
"Yes, yes...Master Geng just licked it."
"But Mr. Geng might as well think about it carefully. I dare not not answer His Majesty's question, but you happened to be next to me and heard what I said...I know that the elixir that Your Majesty took was mixed with all kinds of feces and farts."
The corners of Geng Jing's mouth twitched violently.
Thinking about it this way, His Majesty is much more pitiful than him.
Ning Chen continued: "That is the current Holy Emperor. If this matter spreads out, how will His Majesty's face be saved? In order to prevent the matter from getting out, His Majesty will definitely kill people and silence them."
Geng Jing's expression changed slightly... Ning Chen was right.
"But Master Geng and Commander Nie, one eats shit and the other drinks urine... It is equivalent to becoming his own people with His Majesty. You will definitely not tell anyone about your eating shit and drinking urine, and His Majesty will naturally not kill you to silence you! "
Geng Jing was trembling with anger, biting his back molars, and said word by word: "I'll say it again, I didn't eat it, I just licked it!"
"Master Geng, stop mincing words now... You should be grateful that you are still alive."
Ning Chen paused and continued: "This is called joining in if you can't beat them... In order to save you and Commander Nie, I worked hard and squeezed out all the milk."
Geng Jing always feels like something is wrong? But for a while I couldn’t figure out what the problem was?
It's a matter of Tian family's face. Your Majesty may really kill people and silence them.
In this way, even though Ning Chen tricked them into licking that nasty thing, he did save them.
He had stayed up all night and had not rested yet. He was exhausted and his mind was a little hard to turn.
"Master Geng, this matter is related to His Majesty's face. Please don't mention it again in the future."
Geng Jing nodded slightly, Ning Chen was right.
Um?
its not right!
Geng Jing stared at Ning Chen and said, "You just said you would join if you can't beat me, so why don't you eat it yourself? Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will kill you and silence you?"
Ning Chen held his head high and said righteously, "Because I am loyal to Your Majesty and I am always ready to sacrifice for Your Majesty."
Geng Jing: "..."
"Don't be so shameless... Are you saying that Commander Nie and I are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Ning Chen said seriously: "We are different... I can die, but you and Commander Nie can't."
Geng Jing's face was full of surprise, "Why?"
"Because you command the Supervision Department and inspect hundreds of officials for His Majesty... Commander Nie is responsible for guarding the safety of the entire imperial city. You are His Majesty's right-hand man, and His Majesty cannot lose his arm."
"And I am just an insignificant person, life and death don't matter."
Geng Jing was stunned!
In his heart, he actually felt admiration and gratitude for Ning Chen.
But at the same time, I feel like something is wrong?
Ning Chen saw that Geng Jing had been fooled by him and quickly changed the subject, "Master Geng, where is my reward?"
"Huh?" Geng Jing was a little confused and looked at him, "What reward?"
"We served Yang Dansi last night. Didn't Your Majesty reward you based on your merits?"
Geng Jingdi's expression suddenly became weird, and he was even a little gloating!
"Ning Chen, His Majesty did not reward you!"
Ning Chen's expression froze, he didn't believe it.
He has the greatest credit for bringing up the Dansi...and His Majesty loves him so much, why doesn't he get a reward?
"Master Geng, embezzling something given by the emperor is a serious crime. You should think twice before doing so."
Geng Jing laughed angrily, "Do you think I am greedy for your reward?"
With that said, he took the imperial edict from the shelf next to him and handed it to Ning Chen, "Read the last sentence yourself."
Ning Chen took the imperial edict and unfolded it. His eyes fell on the last sentence, and he was stunned.
But there are only four words in the last sentence... Ning Chen, no reward!
"This this..."
What did Ning Chen say?
It’s fine if there is no reward, but it was written in the imperial edict.
“What does your majesty mean?”
Although Geng Jing felt a little sympathetic towards Ning Chen, he felt inexplicably happy when he saw him being humiliated.
“Don’t you know how to read? The literal meaning is... you have no reward.”
Ning Chen was very angry and said angrily: “Why? I think my contribution to Yangdansi is as great as yours and Commander Nie... Why do everyone have rewards, but not me? This is unfair.”
Speaking of this, Geng Jing was also very confused.
Logically speaking, with the majesty’s favor to Ning Chen, it is impossible that there is no reward at all.
The only explanation is that Ning Chen did something? He made your majesty angry.
“Ning Chen, did you do something to make your majesty angry?”
Ning Chen recalled.
Was it because he said his tea was not good to drink?
Not really, right? Is your majesty so stingy?
Maybe it’s because he knew that your majesty ate all kinds of shit.
But Geng Jing and Nie Liang also knew that they were all rewarded.
Fuck! ! !
What on earth is the reason?
Ning Chen shook his head: "I can't think of it... I'm so loyal, how could I make His Majesty angry?"
"Sir Geng, do you think it's because my contribution is so great that His Majesty can't think of how to reward me?"
Geng Jing snorted and said gloatingly: "You think too much... If that's the case, His Majesty wouldn't write the four words Ning Chen has no reward on the imperial edict."
"Then what do you think is the reason?"
Geng Jing said unhappily: "How do I know? Anyway, His Majesty has rewarded me with a lot of good things, and I can't spend them all, I can't spend them all..."
Ning Chen was already very wronged, and now he is even more wronged, and he is also very sad.
