The Return of the Demon

Chapter 468: Strange Book

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty has a keen eye for talent, and the Marquis is unparalleled in bravery. May God bless our Great Xuan."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. After this battle, I believe that Nanyue will never dare to invade our Great Xuan again."

At this time, no one dared to spoil His Majesty's mood, no matter how uncomfortable they were.

The officials who advocated peace felt worse than eating shit.

Ning Chen had tricked them badly before leaving.

Now that they have won another victory, they must feel very uncomfortable.

The Emperor Xuan was very pleased. He turned his head to look at the fifth prince who was standing aside with his hands folded, and asked with a smile: "What do you want to say, my son?"

The fifth prince bowed and bowed, behaved properly, and said loudly: "Father, the Marquis Ning has made such a great contribution to our Great Xuan. When he returns to the capital, I will definitely go out of the city to welcome him and personally hold the whip and lead the horse for him."

The Emperor Xuan was full of smiles.

What he hates most is that the princes are jealous, because not only will brothers and sisters suffer, but also capable ministers and generals will be unlucky.

The Fifth Prince can say this, which shows that he knows how to judge people and has a broad mind.

"Good! Ning Chen is the treasure of my Great Xuan... He deserves the emperor to lead the horse and whip for him."

"When Ning Chen returns to the capital, I will reward him well."

After talking about Ning Chen, Emperor Xuan looked at Shen Min and said, "Shen Aiqing, how are the arrangements for summer hunting going?"

Shen Min stepped out and leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, everything is arranged and you can set off at any time."

Emperor Xuan smiled and said, "Okay, then set off in three days."

At this time every year, when the weather is hot, Emperor Xuan will lead civil and military officials to the royal gardens of Yulong Mountain to escape the summer and hunt.

This activity has been around since the time of the previous emperor, and it is an unwritten rule.

"It's a pity that Ning Chen can't come back in time... If this kid is here, he will definitely be the champion of hunting this year."

Emperor Xuan said with some regret.

Ning Chen had been gone for a few months, and he really missed him.

The fifth prince leaned over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is the bravest among the three armies, and you are invincible on the battlefield. Maybe Your Majesty will not be interested in hunting in the garden?"

Emperor Xuan laughed, "That's right! His arrows are for shooting enemies. He will definitely not be interested in shooting small prey."

"Forget it, when we come back, this kid should be back... Then all the ministers will go out of the city to welcome him."

......

After the court was dismissed, the fifth prince had a secret meeting with the right prime minister.

"Are you ready?"

The right prime minister hesitated and nodded slightly.

"Do we really want to do this?"

The fifth prince's eyes were sinister, and he said sternly: "Everything we have done in the southern border has been destroyed by Ning Chen. Fang Zhengqing has been arrested. If we wait for Ning Chen to return to Beijing, we will all be finished."

"This is our last chance. If we don't take action, there will be no chance again."

The right prime minister sighed deeply, "I didn't expect that we would end up like this."

The fifth prince's face was grim, "It was Ning Chen who forced us."

......

And Ning Chen was also preparing to return to the court.

This attack on Nanyue has yielded too much.

The seized supplies are countless.

Because there are too many things, in addition to gold and silver treasures, there are also various rare treasures, and even precious wood has been transported back.

Just counting the supplies is a big project.

Yuan Long and his men have been busy for several days, but they haven't finished counting them thoroughly.

It will take several more days to see the situation.

Ning Chen did not withhold the supplies privately this time, but Yuan Long helped Ning Chen collect all the rare treasures, various antique calligraphy and paintings, and packed more than ten boxes.

These are the truly valuable things.

"Yuan Long, please see the Marquis!"

Ning Chen was drinking with Feng Qizhen and Chen Chong in the tent.

Pan Yucheng went to help Yuan Long count the supplies.

"Come in!"

Yuan Long walked in and bowed, "Meet the Marquis!"

"What do you want to see me for?"

Yuan Long took out a booklet from his arms, his expression a little unnatural, "I found a strange book when I was counting the supplies. The Marquis is knowledgeable. Pan Jinyi said that the Marquis will definitely like it, so I asked me to send it to you."

"Strange book?" Ning Chen became interested, "Bring it here so I can see what strange book it is?"

Yuan Long stepped forward and handed it to Ning Chen.

This is a yellowed booklet with frayed edges. It seems that it has been read a lot.

He flipped it open casually, and his expression suddenly froze.

Then he quickly flipped back a few pages, his mouth twitching... This is a fucking pornographic book.

Feng Qizhen and Chen Chong also came over to look, and they said in unison: "Oh my god... It's really a strange book."

Ning Chen looked at Yuan Long, "Come here."

Yuan Long stepped forward.

Ning Chen said: "Come, lower your head."

Yuan Long lowered his head.

Ning Chen rolled up the book and knocked him on the head, "I read the Spring and Autumn Annals... You show me this obscene thing, who do you think I am?"

Yuan Long didn't know what the Spring and Autumn Annals was? He said aggrievedly: "Pan Jinyi said that the Marquis would definitely like it."

"Are you stupid? He said I like it, why didn't he send it to me himself?"

"Pan Jinyi is busy."

Ning Chen was speechless, "Why don't you hide?"

"I dare not!"

"When I beat you in the future, you are allowed to hide."

"I obey."

"Then you hide?"

Yuan Long said, "Oh," and quickly stepped back a few steps.

Ning Chen was so angry that he laughed, "Does it hurt?"

Yuan Long shook his head, "No, I'm stubborn."

Ning Chen's mouth twitched, "Okay, go get busy!"

"My Lord, what about this book?"

Ning Chen said with a straight face, "I will burn it in a while."

"By the way, if you find this kind of book again, bring it to me immediately. I will burn it myself. I can't let this kind of book spread and stain the pure hearts of the soldiers."

"Yes, I will obey your orders!"

Ning Chen waved his hand.

Yuan Long retreated.

Feng Qizheng and Chen Chong stared at Ning Chen.

Ning Chen said angrily: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Feng Qizheng smiled with a lustful look on his face, "You said that fruit tastes better when we eat it together, and good things have to be shared... You can't hide your secrets."

Ning Chen hit him on the head with a book, "What are you talking about? I am Daxuan Poet Immortal, a model of scholars... I am a charming young man, a spotless and beautiful young man, how could I possibly read such an obscene book?"

When Ning Chen knocked for the second time, Feng Qi tilted his head back, and while avoiding it, he snatched the book from Ning Chen's hand.

Chen Chong hurried over.

Their heads were squeezed together, watching with gusto.

"Ning Chen, come together!"

Feng Qizheng invited.

Ning Chen hit him with chopsticks, "Get out of here, I'm a serious person!"

"Forget it if you don't want to watch!"

"I'll go...that's okay. Can I hang people up and play with them?"

"Awesome, isn't it uncomfortable to break a person like this? When I return to the capital, I will definitely go to Jiaofangsi to find a girl to try."

"I want to try this position...it's exciting to watch."

The two of them laughed obscenely while watching, and made a few comments from time to time.

Ning Chen walked over, snatched the books from their hands, and gave each of them a kick.

"Can you learn a little bit? Especially Lao Chen, you have a family... You two go and help Lao Pan. I confiscated this book. I will destroy it later."

"No...it would be a pity to burn such a good book. For one thousand taels of silver, can I buy it?"

Ning Chen's face darkened, "Get out of here, or you'll be punished by military law."

The two of them left with expressions of reluctance.

Ning Chen walked out of the camp, made sure that the two of them had left, and then told the soldiers at the door that no one was allowed to come in without his order.

Back in the camp, Ning Chen opened the book in his hand with a critical look, "Fuck...that's awesome, can you still play like this?"

"I'll give it a try...it's very difficult, it's because I'm too small!"
