Chapter 744: Blackmail

Chen Ao snorted coldly, took back the sword, and said lightly: "What's there to say? Do you give this money? I am straight. I don't have as many twists and turns as you Jurchens. To be honest, money can never be lost!"

Hearing the word "rhythmia", Zhou Heng's face twitched a few times, thinking to himself, from knowing you, you know that you are full of colorful intestines.

Wanyan Duozhu hesitated for a moment and said, "This money is not something that cannot be raised, but in addition to the empress dowager, we also have to redeem one thing."

Chen Ao said lightly: "Are you talking about that jade bi?"

Wanyan Duozhu said: "That's right, if Your Highness refuses, the Jurchens have to avenge the Empress Dowager."

Wanyan Duozhu stared at Chen Ao directly, afraid that Chen Ao would put forward another condition. Unexpectedly, Chen Ao just smiled faintly and said, "It's just a piece of jade bi. You want it, so you can pack it up and deliver it. This is a good person to talk to."

Wanyan Duozhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Can your highness let the emperor meet the Queen Mother?"

Chen Ao sneered, "It's better not to meet him. The weather in Xixia is too hot. The Empress Dowager always likes to take off her clothes and cool down. Everyone will inevitably be embarrassed when they see him. Go back and report your life."

Wanyan Duozhu's eyes almost spit out of fire, and he said viciously: "Okay, I'll go back and report now!"

Watching Wanyan Duozhu leave, Chen Ao sat back in his seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said with a smile: "Black-extortion is really not my expertise." As he said that, he sighed, as if he was very dissatisfied with his performance. If he had known this, he would have offered a higher price.

Zhou Heng said: "My cousin is already very good at it."

Chen Ao glared at him and said, "What do you know."

Zhou Heng silenced and thought to himself that his cousin had not changed at all. He couldn't help but sigh and thought, "It's a pity that I, Zhou Heng, have changed." Why did you think my cousin is shameless now?"

Chen Ao sat leisurely on the chair and said, "Dr. Zhou, I want to trouble you. Taiyuan collapses. Now the disaster is urgent. Xixia cannot stand by. You can immediately transfer a batch of food and herbs, and then withdraw some money from the Ministry of Revenue to provide disaster relief."

Dr. Zhou said in surprise: "Is Taiyuan collapsed?" He couldn't help but say: "How many people in the lieutenant are from Taiyuan..."

Chen Ao said, "Then take them with you and let them go home and take a look."

Dr. Zhou took the order and went there.

Zhou Heng sighed: "My father is also in Taiyuan. If I had known it, I would have gone to Taiyuan to have a look."

Chen Ao said lightly: "Your father will be fine. He is an imperial envoy. There are so many people around him, what are you afraid of?"

As he was speaking, Huaide came in again and said, "Your Highness, Gui Zhihuan is looking for a meeting."

Chen Ao said ah and said, "Please come in." Then he said to Zhou Heng: "Cousin, I have very important things to deal with. I'll ask someone to take you to the palace first to take you around?"

Zhou Heng looked suspicious and said, "What important thing can't be said in front of me, Gui Zhihuan... This child is very rare, isn't he a woman?"

Chen Ao said seriously: "Nonsense, Gui Zhihuan is obviously a man, nicknamed Ming Ge, how could he be a man? Cousin, you are becoming more and more suspicious. If I hadn't known that you always looked at your cousin, I would have suspected that you were under Ruoer's mission and came to stare at your cousin. You are a captain, you know this kind of stalking behavior?" He pushed Zhou Heng and said: "Go away, go quickly, I want to discuss national affairs with Gui brother. This matter is related to the welfare of millions of people and cannot be ignored."

Zhou Heng didn't tell the truth for a moment, and looked at Chen Ao suspiciously. Seeing that Chen Ao's eyes were sincere and his noble smile, he believed it a little: "Then my cousin is gone."

Chen Ao sighed relieved when he saw Zhou Heng away. Zhou Heng might be a detailed work sent by Zhou Ruo, so he couldn't catch any handle. While he was thinking about it, Gui Zhihuan, wearing a ghost face, came in, bowed to Chen Ao, and said, "Ghost Zhihuan is humble, I have seen Your Highness."

Chen Ao stepped forward to help her up and said, "Huan'er doesn't have to be too polite."

Gui Zhihuan said: "This time I am here to say goodbye to Your Highness. My tribe and I are about to go back to Hengshan."

Chen Aoxin knew that Gui Zhihuan did not belong here, so she couldn't help but hold Gui Zhihuan's hand and said, "I'm going back to the Song Dynasty, and I don't know when I will meet again when I part."

Gui Zhihuan looked at him faintly and said, "If your highness summons you, go up and down the mountain..."

Chen Ao interrupted her and said, "I have a saying that you must remember when you part."

Seeing that Chen Ao was extremely cautious, Gui Zhihuan said seriously: "Please tell me your superiors."

Chen Ao said: "Don't get married, I can't stand the loneliness anymore... Cough cough..." He looked at her deeply, holding Gui Zhihuan's tenderness in his hand, and continued: "Actually I can do it for him..."

“…”

While Gui Zhihuan was stunned, Chen Ao gently opened her ghost face, gently held her waist, and whispered: "Okay?"

The hair was dispersed, revealing the true face of Lushan, which was Gui Zhihuan. The slightly raised nose slightly stoked, his lips gradually curled up, and he chuckled, "Your Highness is so broad, do you even need to care about this?"

Chen Ao said in an unquestionable tone: "Of course you have to take care of it. This is also a major military and national event. Otherwise, one day, if the husband you recruited is a traitor, wouldn't he ruin my major event?"

Gui Zhihuan took a deep breath. At this time, she had no cold smell at all. She leaned gently on Shen Ao's chest and whispered: "I'm just obeying the order." Then she broke out from Chen Ao's arms and said seriously: "My tribe members are still waiting for me outside the city."

Chen Ao said: "Do you want me to give you a ride?"

Gui Zhihuan smiled faintly and said, "The love of children is not a wise monarch. Your Highness, let's leave." When she turned around, she did not turn around and walked out without turning around.

Chen Ao sat there for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly. This woman is really unpredictable.

During dinner, Zhou Heng was led to Manjushri Pavilion by the eunuch, and the three of them were still at the same table. Miaoer was careful and suddenly asked Zhou Heng: "What's wrong with my cousin's face?"

Chen Ao couldn't help but raise his head. Seeing Zhou Heng's face with a faint palm print, he couldn't help but care and said, "Who dares to slap you? This is my cousin's land. When you get angry, you told me that my cousin stand up for you."

Zhou Heng said with grievance: "I just ran into that ghost Zhihuan on the road. He was wearing a terrifying ghost face and a very strange leather armor. I saw him look like a woman and walked over to say hello."

Hearing Gui Zhihuan, Chen Ao couldn't help but glance at Miao'er, and his neck felt a little cold, and he immediately lowered his head to cook rice.

Miao'er put down her chopsticks, supported her elbows on the table, dragged her chin and listened very seriously, her eyes flickering, and she smiled with a playful smile: "What?"

Zhou Heng smiled bitterly, "Later, I raised my hand and wanted to put it on his shoulder and talk to him about confusing words, but he raised his hand and slapped me." Zhou Heng looked angry and gently slapped the table angrily, saying, "If it weren't for his weakness and just discussed military and political affairs with his cousin, maybe he would have to go out to run for the welfare of millions of people, I would have beaten back long ago... For a cousin, it's nothing if you suffer a little loss... Hey, Sister Miaoer, why did your face become so ugly?"

Miaoer said coldly: "Nothing."

Chen Ao was guilty and immediately picked up a chicken nugget, bit off a layer of skin outside, put the tender meat inside into Miaoer's bowl, and said dryly: "Haha, Miaoer, eat quickly, the weather is good today. After using the meal, we went to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the moon. It was about to be fifteen. On the night of the full moon, the moon was very sad, sad and moving, and people felt pity when they saw it; just like Miaoer, it always makes you look at her husband."

Miao'er's face calmed down a little, she glanced at her angrily, and whispered to eat the dishes that Chen Ao picked up. Unexpectedly, Zhou Hengman put down his chopsticks indignation and said, "Cousin, although I am a lieutenant, I am also the younger brother of my sister and her father and mother. I can't speak up if I don't say anything!"

Chen Ao's face changed and he cursed in his heart, "Damn your cousin!"

Zhou Heng stood up and said with great enthusiasm: "Cousin, you have three wives and four concubines, I will let you; you have sweet words to Sister Miaoer in front of my cousin and brother-in-law, and you will also let you do it. But don't forget how my sister treats you. You went to Honglu Temple to serve you, she was afraid that you would get cold, so she asked someone to give you clothes. When you go out, she always worried that she couldn't eat. Cousin, you must be a little conscience and not forget the old ones with a new person. Have you ever said so many sweet words in front of my sister? Have you left all the wretched wife behind?"

Chen Ao was speechless, wishing he could find a corner to cry.

Miao'er's jade-scattered hands also slapped the table, and his eyes were staring at Chen Ao and said, "My cousin is right. He is just a bad guy who is bored with the new and old!"

The newcomer Zhou Heng mentioned is Miaoer, and God knows who the newcomer Miaoer said is.

Chen Ao calmed down and finally returned to his normal color. After all, thick-skinned has the advantage of being thick-skinned. At least he wouldn't be too embarrassed at this time. He raised his chopsticks, lowered his head and ate a few bites of food, and then said slowly: "My cousin is too impulsive. Come on, sit down and talk first. Miao'er, what do you make a coax with him? What kind of quarrel is like? Do you know if you want your mother to be in the world?"

"Oh, by the way..." Chen Ao continued calmly: "The weather is good recently. In a few days, our family will go out to the palace to play. Don't Miao'er want to go to Xiangguo Temple? My cousin will go together. Let's burn incense and pray together, and hope that the Buddha will bless the people of Taiyuan. If there is still extra time, we will go out for a walk outside the city. At this time, the chrysanthemums are in full bloom. There are many wild chrysanthemums on the outskirts of the city. You can pick a few of them back and enjoy them."

Miaoer finally showed a satisfied expression. It has always been her long-cherished wish, but Chen Ao kept saying that he was disturbing the people, so she did not make it happen. She sat down with satisfaction and said, "Do you want Chen Zhi to take him there?"

Chen Ao shook his head and said, "No."

Miao'er nodded, and her eyes with longing fell down, and she continued to chew slowly.

Zhou Heng stood there blankly, feeling a little uncomfortable, so he had to say, "Cousin, think about it carefully and don't do this in the future."
