Chapter 3771 Selling Wife for Glory
Chai Lingwu took a sip of tea and took a few deep breaths, but he still couldn't suppress the sudden thoughts in his heart...
He coughed dryly, hesitated, and said hesitantly: "Maybe, only my wife can help me."
Princess Baling frowned, her face was beautiful and gentle, why did she say: "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's because the crime my brother committed this time is unforgivable, and the entire Chai family will be implicated. Even if I'm being shameless, If you ask for help from the prince, he will definitely not grant the title to the prince, so why should you bring shame on yourself? ”
"No, no, no,"
Chai Lingwu shook his head repeatedly and said: "My wife has misunderstood. She is not begging for the prince, but for the second room."
The prince had no good opinion of the Chai family, so he could not take the opportunity to take away the title of the Chai family, thinking that he would be severely punished. But if Fang Er can be allowed to intercede, and the First Prince can trust him, it will definitely happen.
Princess Baling was speechless, thinking carefully about her words, trying not to hurt the husband's self-esteem: "The husband and Fang Er don't have much affection now. He is already an upright person by not being silent and adding insult to injury. How can I say anything for the husband?" Item?”
Favor is a thing that is lost once it is used. Even if the prince had great trust in Fang Jun, he would not be able to respond to Fang Jun's every request.
How could Fang Jun be willing to beg the prince for the title of the Chai family?
Neither Chai Lingwu nor the entire Chai family has that weight...
Unexpectedly, Chai Lingwu had a determined look on his face, looked at his wife and said, "If I open my mouth, Fang Er will definitely refuse, but if my wife asks for it, I might agree. Considering that the prince currently favors and relies heavily on him, If he goes to plead with the prince, even if the prince doesn't want to, he won't refute his face, and it will happen. "
Princess Baling was stunned for a moment, blinked, and then realized what she was doing. Her eyebrows suddenly stood up, and her usual elegance disappeared instantly. Her face turned red with embarrassment, and she yelled in a sweet voice: "Chai Lingwu, are you still a man?! That room There is an entanglement between Jun and Changle, and there are even scandals about him in Jinyang... What do you think of letting me beg him? "
Chai Lingwu thought to himself, if it weren't for the rumors outside that that man liked his wives and sisters the most, how could I be sure that you could persuade him by taking action? As for what really happened...he felt that compared with the title, it wouldn't hurt.
But you should never say that. Princess Baling looked cold, but in fact she had a strong temper. She hurriedly said: "Your Highness, please calm down. Although I am not a hero, I am still upright. How can I be the kind of person who sells his wife for glory?" Senior? Although Fang Er is a stick man, he is very arrogant. , but she is very acknowledging her. If the wife comes to her with the respect of a princess, he will definitely not be able to refuse, and he will never make any unreasonable request. Even if the husband cannot trust the second wife, how can he not trust the wife as a person? It’s not what the lady thought.”
How can Princess Baling be trusted?
This is like bringing a rabbit to the tiger's mouth, saying that you believe that the tiger is a vegetarian and that the rabbit will definitely escape from the tiger's mouth?
However, after being embarrassed, she lowered her eyes, her face returned to coldness, and she slowly sipped the tea, her heart full of disappointment.
Although Chai Lingwu was not very promising in the past, he knew how to please people, and he was backed by a famous family like the Chai family. He was a descendant of an aristocratic family, so he and his wife got along well. She doesn't have any extravagant hopes of "hoping for her husband to become a successful man", and even if she doesn't, it's fine to just live an ordinary life like this.
It’s just that I don’t know since when, Chai Lingwu has become so philistine and disgusting...
Even more chilling.
She didn't believe that Chai Lingwudang really believed that she could stick to the bottom line and be loyal and unyielding. He just felt that her chastity was insignificant compared with the inheritance of the title...
How cold and desperate does a woman feel when her husband pushes her to another man for profit?
Princess Baling's heart was filled with anger and despair. At the same time, she felt an inexplicable feeling of revenge: Since you don't care, then as you wish...
Chai Lingwu clicked his tongue, feeling a little regretful and feeling that his words were a bit hurtful. Baling has always been willful and stubborn. Now he is angry and is bound to make a fuss. Furthermore, as a man, it was indeed too much for Baling to ask his wife to beg a disreputable person like Fang Er, almost to the point of humiliation.
And I may not have passed the test in my heart afterwards.
Sighing, he was about to let the matter go, but unexpectedly, instead of making a fuss, Princess Baling lowered her head slightly, held the tea cup tightly in her hand, and uttered one word coldly: "Okay." br>
For a moment, Chai Lingwu felt as if his heart was hit hard by something. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
What can be said?
The inheritance of the title is really too important...
*****
Under the night, drizzle fell one after another.
A group of more than a hundred people marched from the direction of Kunming Pool along the official road to Jinguang Gate. Their speed was not fast and their armor was in disorder. There were complaints among the group about rushing in the rain, and their morale was low.
Even on a rainy night, there were still many pedestrians on the road, including civilians in shabby clothes, soldiers in loose formations, and even cars and horses coming and going.
A group of five or six scouts rode towards them. When they saw this group of more than a hundred soldiers and horses, they reined in their horses and blocked the road.
"Who are you waiting for?"
One of the scouts shouted.
Among the hundreds of people, a school captain stood out from the crowd and replied: "We have been out on business under the orders of General Yuwen. We have just returned and have not yet returned."
The scout asked again: "What are you doing?"
The captain snorted coldly, threw the waist badge over on horseback, and said displeasedly: "You only need to see the authenticity of the waist badge. As for what is being done, are you qualified to ask?"
He was so powerful that the scout couldn't figure out the details and didn't dare to say anything. He took the waist badge and examined it carefully with the torch beside him. He held his fists on horseback and said: "It's my duty, I've offended many people, so I'll say goodbye!"
Then he rode away with his teammates.
The captain put away his waist badge, and a young man dressed as an ordinary soldier beside him whispered: "There are countless outposts and secret sentries along the way. The rebels are very strict about the area outside Jinguang Gate. If it weren't for Captain Sun, Lead the way, no one else can sneak in.”
The captain was naturally Master Sun Ren. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "The investigation near the Yushi Temple will be more stringent. I also ask General Cheng to tell everyone to be careful and not to expose the truth. We have now penetrated deep into the rebel army." Once the heart and soul are exposed, there will be no life or death.”
Cheng Wuting nodded heavily: "I can save it!"
Before leaving, Fang Jun and General Youtunwei carefully deduced countless possible situations in the Chinese military tent, and formulated contingency strategies for each situation to ensure nothing went wrong. It would be a big joke if the entire Xingzang army was destroyed before they arrived at the Rain Master Altar and set fire to it, then it would be a big joke...
However, Sun Renshi's identity is very useful. Although he is only a captain, he is well-connected in the army. Everyone knows that he is related to the Yuwen family, so they did not deliberately make things difficult. After checking his waistband, he was released without questioning what he had done. What's the matter?
Walking leisurely all the way, soon you can see the Rain Master Altar standing outside the Golden Light Gate from a distance. The top of the tall circular mound building is burning with a blazing torch. It has not been extinguished even on a rainy night, making it very eye-catching in the darkness. .
Approaching the Rain Master Altar, there were obviously more people, horses, and vehicles coming and going.
While walking, Sun Renshi was a little worried and asked Cheng Wuting in a low voice: "Although the rain is not heavy, will it affect the effect of arson? If we go through life and death, but the rain finally messes up the situation, then we will die in peace."
It was raining like silk when we set off, which was not a problem for setting the fire. After all, the fire had already started and a little rain could not put it out. But at this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was a lot of water on the road. It was being crushed by people's horses and wheels, and it was getting muddy.
Cheng Wuting rode his horse slowly, looked around, and said confidently: "Don't worry, when it comes to setting fires, our Youtun Guards are the most professional! Not to mention the mere drizzle, even if it is to make fire from water or millet from fire, it will not matter." We at Youtunwei can’t do it.”
This time they came to set fire to the Guanlong army's food and supplies, and they brought with them a kind of thunder that was added with "phosphorus". This thing is extremely difficult to obtain, difficult to preserve, and highly poisonous. Therefore, hundreds of them were originally made in the foundry bureau. The remaining coins have been stored in the Youtunwei warehouse.
It is said that when this "earth-shaking thunder" was first tested, the fire would rise when exposed to the wind and become unstoppable. Especially when water was poured on it, it would only increase the intensity of the fire. It is indeed a necessary weapon for murder and arson... (End of this chapter)
