Ming Dynasty: I risked my life to teach the prince, the emperor begged me not to die

Chapter 115 Shame
Zhu Houzhao's body trembled, he felt dizzy, his breathing was rapid, and he almost couldn't sit still. He looked at Chen Ce with lifeless eyes, and said with a slight twitch of his mouth, "Don't, don't make trouble."

What's wrong with this guy?
Are you crazy from missing girls?
Chen Ce thought Zhu Houzhao was very strange. What was that expression? It was as if his beloved girl had been robbed. Wasn't Liu Jin not back yet?

"Okay." Chen Ce thought for a moment and said, "I guess you don't have the heart to read the storybook now."

Zhu Houzhao's face twitched, but he still didn't give up and asked, "Really, did you really write this? Isn't the author's name something like, Li, Li..."

Chen Ce nodded and said, "Well, Li Xiachan, wasn't it summer then? I thought of making money this way under the plum tree, so I gave it this name."

Zhu Houzhao: "Ha, ha, ha, so that's it."

At this moment, Liu Jin came running over from outside and said to Zhu Houzhao, "Master, I found out the author of Rebirth. He, he, he, he..."

Oh shit! Shut up!
Zhu Houzhao stood up suddenly and covered Liu Jin's mouth, but it was too late! His face turned red with shame.

Chen Ce was also stunned, and then... he stuttered and asked Zhu Houzhao, "Well, the girl you've been thinking about day and night..."

Zhu Houzhao, you are a real talent!

You haven't even confirmed whether the person is a man or a woman, yet you start fantasizing?

Do you have to be so outrageous!

unbelievable!

Zhu Houzhao covered his face with his hands, feeling so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into immediately, and his face was burning hot.

Liu Jin was also numb at this time.

The three of them looked at each other, and no one knew how to start.

Chen Ce said tentatively: "This misunderstanding is nothing."

Liu Jin said: "Yes, yes! It's nothing, just talk it out!"

Zhu Houzhao quickly said: "Yes, it's just a misunderstanding, it's no big deal!"

Chen Ce thought for a moment and said, "Or... you can go find another story writer and fantasize about it."

Zhu Houzhao: "..."

"Haha, haha, the weather is nice today. It's quite hot."

It was still snowing outside. Liu Jin had just opened the main door of the hall, and a cold wind was blowing inside...

"Woo woo woo! I won't live anymore!"

Zhu Houzhao's psychological defenses finally collapsed, and he ran out, covering his face.

Liu Jin hurriedly chased after him, and as if he had thought of something, he turned back and said to Chen Ce: "Mr. Chen, you, please don't talk nonsense, our master, he is still a child!"

Chen Ce nodded, he understood!

"Hey, Master, please wait for me. Wait for me."

Liu Jin hurriedly followed Zhu Houzhao outside with an umbrella. Snowflakes were flying and the wind was cold, but Zhu Houzhao walked very fast, stepping on the snow as if it were flat ground, and quickly went towards the East Palace.

Chen Ce then remembered something. That’s not right. Today is a rare opportunity. I want to talk to him about joining the business partnership.

You see, this is quite embarrassing. The key point is that when Chen Ce thought of Zhu Houzhao's previous description of the woman he fantasized about, he thought of himself and couldn't help shuddering.

Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s so-called fantasy first love is gone.

……

Beizhen Fusi.

Commander Mou Bin called the deputy commander Li Zhen to the meeting hall. There were only two people in the hall.

"This is a humble job, sir."

Mou Bin held his hands down and motioned Li Zhen to sit down and drink tea. He also took a sip of the tea, and then said slowly: "Old Wu is getting old, our brothers in the Jinyiwei should take some time to hold a banquet to send him off."

Li Zhen's heart beat faster, knowing that the next step was crucial: to decide on the new commander.

Mou Bin took another sip of tea and said calmly, "Wen Li, Song Ke, Lao Tian, ​​do you have any ideas about promoting someone?"

Li Zhen shook his head and said, "Everything is up to you, sir."

Mou Bin frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with Li Zhen's answer, but he did not embarrass Li Zhen and said to himself, "Old Wu wants Song Ke to come up."

Li Zhen said: "Xiao Song is quite capable."

Mou Bin agreed: "They are capable, but they are too eager for quick success. What kind of crap are Xiao Song and Lao Tian doing these days?"

"They mess up their own responsibilities and act like this when things go wrong. How can we expect them to take the lead?"

"Let Wenli take over." Mou Bin said, and threw the badge to Li Zhen, saying, "Let Wenli go to Old Wu to take over."

Li Zhen suppressed his excitement and shock and said hurriedly, "Okay!"

When walking out of the meeting hall, Li Zhen realized that his heart was beating very violently.

As expected, the commander chose Wei Wenli in the end! Chen Ce had predicted all his thoughts! Song Ke and Lao Tian were also predicted by Chen Ce. They had been fighting during this period, doing their duties in a mess, and putting all their energy into suppressing the other party, completely ignoring Wei Wenli!
Li Zhen walked towards Wei Wenli with a tiger's gait. Wei Wenli was still working. When he saw Li Zhen coming, he stood up and clasped his fists, saying, "Your humble servant greets Lord Li."

Li Zhen pressed his hands, smiled, and said, "No need to see you, Mr. Wei."

Wei Wenli was slightly stunned for a moment, then he reacted, his face immediately filled with ecstasy, and he said excitedly: "Sir, I, I..."

"It's coming up."

Li Zhen smiled, threw the Tongzhi waist badge to Wei Wenli, and said, "Find some time to go to Old Wu to handle the handover."

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Wei Wenli was eager to speak, but was stopped by Li Zhen, who said, "Don't rush. Prepare some gifts tonight and find an old Xiuchun sword from the storeroom. Even though it is old, it has to be the best. Then, follow me to meet someone."

Wei Wenli knew that the person Li Zhen was talking about was the one who had instructed him, so he quickly said, "Okay!"

"What should I prepare, sir?"

Li Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "He is not greedy for money or sex. Didn't we raid the home of former Prime Minister Wan'an before? We looted a set of tiger-skin capes, which are very good for keeping warm. Take this."

Wei Wenli nodded and said, "Okay! I'll go right away!"

The day is getting dark.

Li Zhen brought Wei Wenli to Huaihua Hutong. Chen Ce had just finished his meal and was sitting in the study studying the newspaper's distribution plan.

Hearing a knock on the door, he went out to open it and saw Li Zhen and another Jinyiwei coming. He asked in confusion, "Master Li, what are you doing?"

"Please come in."

Li Zhen and Wei Wenli followed Chen Ce to the central hall. Li Zhen introduced them, "Mr. Chen, this is Wei Wenli, the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei... Oh, now he is the deputy governor, haha."

Chen Ce bowed and said, "Meet Lord Wei."

Wei Wenli said quickly, "Mr. Chen, please don't be so polite. It's embarrassing for me."

Li Zhen tried to smooth things over, "Wen Li is right. Mr. Chen, please don't be so distant with him. We are all friends and brothers."

"Wenli brought you the Embroidered Spring Knife. Please take a look and see if you like it."

Chen Ce took the Embroidered Spring Sword and put it aside. He didn't care about the Embroidered Spring Sword. Li Zhen had helped him a lot these days, so it didn't matter whether he had the Embroidered Spring Sword or not.

Wei Wenli then handed Chen Ce something wrapped in velvet and said, "Mr. Chen, this is also a token of my appreciation."

Chen Ce declined, "You're being polite. At the time, I only said that an embroidered spring sword would be enough."
