HCB Chapter 465: Tacit Cooperation
Chapter 465: Tacit Cooperation
Lian Chi was very fast, and the two of them seemed to have been working together in perfect harmony for many years. With just a glance from Liang Chongyue, Lian Chi knew what to do.
Those little poisonous creatures were also very powerful. The two of them left in the night and returned in the red sun of dawn.
After returning to the princess's mansion, Liang Chongyue first took a bath and changed her clothes to wash off the blood smell on her body. After Yunling applied the medicine to her again, she arrived at the dining room and saw Lianchi had changed back into a monk's robe and was sitting there waiting for her.
"Your Highness."
Lian Chi stood up, and Liang Chongyue extended his hand to invite him to sit down:
"Don't be shy. This breakfast is vegetarian. You can eat it."
Liang Chongyue specifically asked Yunling to ask the chef to take Lianchi's eating habits into consideration. If it weren't for the fact that the first month was almost up and Liang Chongyue had to go to the palace this morning to report to her scumbag father, she really wanted to have a good sleep and recuperate before going to the battle.
"After dinner, go back and rest. Tomorrow, the Japanese princess will accompany you to the farm to see the snake king you raised."
Lian Chi paused while eating, not expecting His Highness to suddenly mention this matter.
Noticing the hesitation that flashed across Lian Chi's face, Liang Chongyue pretended not to see it.
Liang Chongyue read all his information. She was always very good at judging people. Lianchi had no worries in this world and no essential interests could affect him.
No one can control him unless he really wants to.
Living in Daxiangguo Temple for these years, my essence has not changed, but I have a more thorough understanding of worldly affairs.
"Those two snakes are ferocious and difficult to control. I'm afraid they might hurt Your Highness."
Liang Chongyue had seen the two big snakes that Lian Chi sent to the farm in the information a long time ago. When they were transported, the two big snakes and Lian Chi rode in the same carriage, otherwise Ping An was afraid that the two big snakes would suddenly riot and escape from the carriage.
"It's okay. This princess will just watch from a distance and not disturb them, so she won't get hurt by them."
Liang Chongyue didn't know what Lian Chi was hesitating about, but there was definitely a problem. She didn't want to waste time asking. If Lian Chi didn't explain it, she would let the system check.
"Your Highness, those two snakes were injured by those traitors. They will riot and thirst for blood when they see people. I may not be able to control them."
Lian Chi didn't say how he was hurt, but Liang Chongyue changed her mind after seeing his furrowed brow and the obvious resistance in his eyes.
"Forget it then. After dinner, go back and have some rest. I'll have Ping An take you to the farm this afternoon. I'll leave the poisons we used last night there and take good care of them. You don't have to come back yet.
Talk to those farmers about raising poisonous animals. In a few days, I will take you on a long journey and will personally pick you up at the farm."
Liang Chongyue did not tell Lianchi about the Northern Expedition. She wanted the poisonous creatures he raised to be useful, but it was obvious that Lianchi had real feelings for those poisonous creatures.
I hope Lianchi will be more sensible and not make things difficult for her.
"Yes, Your Highness. I would like to thank Your Highness on behalf of those little beasts."
The resistance in Lian Chi's eyes dissipated, and his frown relaxed a little. Liang Chongyue just smiled slightly when he heard this. After Lian Chi finished breakfast and left, he safely sent the man and the poisonous creature back to Fushan Garden and came back to report.
"When you send Lianchi off this afternoon, give him a hint. This princess hopes he will volunteer. Forcing him might backfire."
Ping'an had been waiting beside His Highness and knew what He meant. He looked up and saw His Highness with his back to him, searching for something.
The snow outside had stopped, and the sun was shining brightly, pouring into the house through the window. Her Highness seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light, like a fairy who had descended from heaven to transcend the tribulation.
Liang Chongyue found the list she had left at the border before. On it were all the soldiers whom she had promised to reward with generous sums of money, and handed the list to Ping An.
"According to the above list and the money recorded, send it to the Xiangjia Army as a reward for the soldiers, emphasizing that this is a reward, not a pension."
The soldiers far away at the border have not returned yet. Suddenly giving money to their families will inevitably make people think that the soldiers have sacrificed their lives.
Ping'an took the list handed to him by His Highness and put it away carefully. He understood what His Highness meant, bowed to His Highness, and then retreated.
Liang Chongyue was writing something on the blank paper spread out in front of her. The paper was already full, and she crossed it out with a wave of her hand.
Liang Chongyue sat at the desk and wrote seven or eight sheets of paper in a row, but he still couldn't write anything that satisfied him.
When the system walked in, it saw the host burning paper. It didn't know which unlucky guy was so honorable that the host could burn paper for him personally.
"Host, it's chaos outside. I just walked past our mansion and could hear the wailing from Prince Yi's mansion across the street. It was almost louder than thunder."
The system's words were obviously exaggerated, but it could hear the noise outside without leaving the house, so it seemed that the matter was really serious.
"Host, is it true that our scumbag father won't find out if we do this?"
The system is still somewhat impressed by the strength of the scumbag dad. The scumbag dad is worthy of being the Human Emperor, with connections everywhere. It is rare to be able to hide anything from the scumbag dad in Daxia.
The originally scheduled day for the expedition is approaching. The system has seen the host's hard work these days and really doesn't want the host to disrupt the original plan because of this kind of thing at this juncture.
"Don't worry, even if he's discovered, what's the big deal? This princess has already dealt with so many traitors for him, and he doesn't have to bear the blame for executing royal relatives. His scumbag father would be so happy if he knew."
Liang Chongyue knew that such a big commotion would definitely not be hidden from the eyes and ears of her scumbag father, so she had already arranged a retreat. These people would not die in vain. She could not hand over the evidence of their treason directly to her scumbag father, nor could she tell the world that there were so many traitors in the royal family, but she could let her scumbag father know metaphorically.
The national treasury now belongs to her. When she looked through the accounts in the past, she saw that it cost countless gold and silver every year just to support these idle people. Liang Chongyue was not a stingy person. She would be lenient with useful people even if they committed a capital crime, and would reward them if they deserved it.
But the only purpose of these Bactrian termites is to reproduce the next generation and pass on their incompetent and useless genes.
Liang Chongyue looked at the system's eyes as big as green beans. It looked extremely worried when it looked at her. She smiled and rubbed its big dog head.
"Whether it's alright or not, I'll know once I go to the palace. With my scumbag father's ability, he should be able to find the source of this incident before I even enter the palace."
"Little dog, do you think your scumbag father will mention this to this princess?"
There was a sneer in Liang Chongyue's eyes, and the system couldn't figure out what the scumbag father was thinking for a while. The scumbag father was too fickle. He was nice to the host, but also cruel to the host. No one knew what was going on in his mind.
As if I'm sick.
