Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 866 A complete farewell!

Cen Wenben was about to refuse when he suddenly smelled the delicious aroma.

His eyes lit up and he said, "Since Master Qin has spoken, I will be disrespectful to refuse."

Qin Wenyuan laughed: "It's better to arrive early than to arrive early. Lord Cen, please go in."

Then he shouted inside, "Madam, add another pair of bowls and chopsticks!"

"Hey, okay! No problem!"

There was a clear echo from inside.

Cen Wenben entered the house.

This was his first time coming to Qin Zulai's residence.

Looking at the very ordinary decorations in the house, as well as those very ordinary cabinets and tables, it is really very different from the prosperous layout of the Qin Mansion outside.

He couldn't help but say, "The place where Lord Qin eats is a bit plain."

Qin Wenyuan knew that Cen Wenben was being polite and was saying that your family was too shabby.

He smiled and said, "My wife left this here on purpose. She said that once she was here, she would remember the smallpox period when I went against all odds to save her."

"She doesn't want to forget, so I let her do it."

Cen Wenben really didn't know about this matter. He knew that it was a mistake for him to jump to conclusions without understanding the situation.

He quickly said, "I'm sorry, Lord Qin, I didn't know about this. Also, congratulations to Lord Qin for marrying such a virtuous wife!"

"Master Qin, you really married a good wife."

Qin Wenyuan was originally feeling a little resentful, but when he heard Cen Wenben praising his wife, his anger suddenly dissipated.

He smiled and replied, "Thank you for your praise, Master Cen."

Soon, Changle brought out another pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"Hello, Lord Cen!"

Changle bowed and saluted.

Although the restoration of her princess status was a foregone conclusion, Changle still greeted him politely.

Cen Wenben quickly stood up and saluted, "Hello, Madam Qin."

Generally speaking, high-ranking officials like him do not need to perform formal greetings to the wives of other high-ranking officials.

But Qin Wenyuan’s reputation is very... very weird.

It is said that he regards his wife Changle as everything, and to offend Changle is equivalent to to offend Qin Wenyuan, and the fight will not end until one dies.

Therefore, Cen Wenben did not dare to be careless. Facing Changle, he also took the same serious attitude as he did towards Qin Wenyuan.

Changle laughed and said, "Master Cen is so polite. I will add more noodles for you. Please sit down quickly."

"Well, thank you for troubling Madam Qin."

Cen Wenben sat down and smiled.

Soon, Changle picked a bowl of noodles for Cen Wenben, poured him two spoonfuls of gravy, and said, "Master Cen, try my gravy noodles."

Cen Wenben took a bite and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Delicious!" he couldn't help but say.

Seeing this, Qin Wenyuan smiled, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Changle knew in her heart that Cen Benwen came here today to discuss important matters with her husband, so she ordered another bowl of noodles and left.

Qin Wenyuan didn't care either.

While eating, he said, "Master Cen, you came to see me so late, there must be something wrong, right?"

Cen Wenben then remembered the important matter, and he hurriedly said, "Master Qin, good news!"

"Good thing?"

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Has what I need been made?"

Cen Wenben gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Lord Qin. Yes, after the Ministry of Industry's almost non-stop efforts these days, what Lord Qin wants has been completely manufactured."

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Tomorrow is the deadline I gave you, and you come here now to tell me that there is good news. It would be strange if I still can't guess what it is."

He took a bite of noodles and asked, "Have you tested it? How powerful is it?"

When talking about this, Cen Wenben's face was full of surprise.

He looked at Qin Wenyuan and said, "Sir Qin doesn't know. When we were testing it, we never thought it would be so powerful."

"In the end, we almost killed our own people."

"Fortunately, we reacted quickly and ran away as soon as we felt something was wrong, otherwise we would have been doomed."

Qin Wenyuan looked surprised: "Don't tell me you didn't expect how powerful it would be?"

Cen Wenben was a little embarrassed and said, "We, we didn't think about these things. After all... after all, this is something that has never been seen before, and after it was built, everyone was very excited and excited, so they forgot about it."

"When we tried it, we were all shocked."

Qin Wenyuan shook his head helplessly and said, "You are lucky, God bless you, otherwise you would all be turned into ashes now."

Cen Wenben scratched his head, still feeling a lingering fear.

When I think back to what happened back then, my legs still feel a little weak.

Qin Wenyuan put down his chopsticks and asked, "How powerful do you think it is?"

"powerful!"

Cen Wenben said without even thinking, "It's so powerful that it's terrifying. It makes people tremble with fear at the sight of it. It's really extremely powerful."

"I believe that if the enemy saw this, they would be absolutely terrified."

"With this magical weapon, I can kill gods and Buddhas!"

Qin Wenyuan listened to Cen Wenben's praise and said with a smile: "It's not as scary as you said, but it does have a miraculous effect when the enemy knows nothing about us."

He clapped his hands and said, "Put those things secretly in the grain transport truck of the Ministry of Revenue tonight, and I will bring people to take them away tomorrow."

Cen Wenben naturally would not have any objection.

Seeing that Cen Benwen had finished his meal, Qin Wenyuan smiled and asked, "Master Cen, would you like another bowl?"

Cen Wenben said: "I'm so sorry."

"It's okay. My wife is always worried that I won't have enough to eat, so she always makes more."

Qin Wenyuan didn't bother his father. He stood up and picked another bowl of noodles for Cen Wenben.

He said, "Lord Wei Zheng often comes to eat when I am cooking, so every time my wife is not busy, she will prepare some extra food in case he comes and there is no food left."

Upon hearing this, Cen Wenben was full of emotion and said, "Mrs. Qin is such a gentle person."

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "There is no such thing as gentleness or not. My wife just likes and prefers her own people."

dong dong.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

A voice came from outside: "Master Qin, I just got off duty and I'm very hungry. I came here to eat. Do you have any food at home?"

When Qin Wenyuan heard this, he shrugged like Cen Wenben and said, "You see, if you mention the devil, he will appear."

He walked over and opened the door, and saw Wei Zheng standing outside with a look of familiarity on his face.

When Wei Zheng saw Qin Wenyuan, he raised the bacon in his hand and said, "Sir Qin, I didn't come empty-handed this time. I brought some snacks. Let's have a drink. It's my way of practicing for you."

Qin Wenyuan smacked his lips and said, "It's rare, Lord Wei, that you come here and bring something with you."

Wei Zheng laughed and said, "Haha, today is special. Tomorrow, Lord Qin will leave. I don't know when it will be until we meet again."

Having said that, Wei Zheng walked towards the house in a very familiar manner.

But when he entered the room and saw Cen Wenben, he was slightly startled: "Master Cen? You're here to eat for free, too?"

Cen Wenben's face turned red when he heard that.

Qin Wenyuan laughed and scolded, "Master Wei, Master Cen just came to tell me the good news. I happened to be having a meal, so I invited Master Cen to stay and eat with me. Do you think everyone likes to eat for free like you do?" Wei Zheng directly took three bowls, opened the wine pot, and laughed while pouring wine, "I am here to eat for free at Master Qin's place. I won't go even if others invite me."

"Well, Lord Qin, the news has been told to you, so I will take my leave now." Cen Wenben felt that it was time for him to leave.

Wei Zheng said, "Why are you leaving? Since you are here, let's drink together. Since Lord Qin asked you to stay for dinner, it means we are all family, so don't be polite. Let's drink together and practice for Lord Qin together."

"By the way, where is your Changle!?"

Wei Zheng asked again.

Qin Wenyuan rolled his eyes and said, "My wife doesn't want to accompany me for drinking, so she won't come."

"Hahaha, it's rare! It doesn't matter if I have a little taste!"

Wei Zheng laughed.

But seeing the determination on Qin Wenyuan's face, he had no choice but to give up.

"Ahem, well, let's drink."

Cen Wenben felt that after all, his relationship with Lord Qin was not that good. It was inappropriate for him to stay here when the two good brothers were drinking and chatting.

So he was very hesitant. He felt that he should leave, but Wei Zheng, this guy with low emotional intelligence, held him back and wouldn't let him go.

Seeing that Cen Wenben was very conflicted, Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Master Cen, please stay."

"When it comes to wine, the more people there are, the more fun it has."

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "That's right, Lord Cen, please don't be polite."

Seeing that Qin Wenyuan had spoken, Cen Wenben finally felt relieved and said, "Well, I will refuse it with disrespect."

Qin Wenyuan laughed, picked up the wine bowl and said, "Tomorrow, I will go out with the army. I feel very happy to have you see me off tonight."

"This shows that I'm doing well and there are still people who remember to practice for me."

Wei Zheng laughed and also picked up the wine bowl, saying: "Sir Qin is the lucky star of our Tang Dynasty. If it weren't for you, Tang Dynasty would not know what a curved plow is until now. So I will never let go of Sir Qin."

"Lord Wei, you are the only one who is thick-skinned. I don't know how you have the nerve to stick to me." Qin Wenyuan scolded with a smile.

Wei Zheng laughed and said, "I have a keen eye. I can tell at a glance that you are from Lord Qin. You are not ordinary."

Qin Wenyuan shook his head helplessly.

When Cen Wenben saw this scene and looked at the close relationship between Qin Zuwenyuan and Wei Zheng, he felt envious.

In the officialdom, there are many people who call each other brothers.

But how many people can be like Qin Wenyuan and Wei Zheng?
At least Cen Wenben doesn't have that.

That's why he was so envious.

Even he could feel the trust between Qin Wenyuan and Wei Zheng.

"Come on, what are you standing there for? Have a drink."

Qin Wenyuan said while holding up the wine bowl.

Cen Wenben and Wei Zheng raised their wine bowls and clinked them together.

Then he drank the wine in the bowl in big gulps.

After putting down the wine bowl, Wei Zheng picked up the wine pot and poured wine again.

"Master Qin, drink as much as you can tonight. You won't have the chance to drink tomorrow when you go to Nanzhao."

"Nanzhao is not like the Tang Dynasty. It is full of dangers. So, Lord Qin, even if you are craving for wine, you must not drink. If you drink and make mistakes, it will be bad."

Qin Wenyuan said with a smile: "Sir Wei, do you think I am you, and you are still craving for wine? When have you ever seen me craving for anything?"

"Haha."

Wei Zheng put down the wine pot and said with a smile: "This officer, I am worried. The road ahead to Nanzhao is dangerous, so I am naturally worried that something might happen to Lord Qin."

"Do not worry."

Qin Wenyuan picked up a piece of bacon and said, "No matter who is in trouble, I will be fine."

"I am going to Nanzhao to destroy it, not to be destroyed."

"Besides, we are the active party. We have the advantage in every aspect. I am also aware of the possible problems, so there will be absolutely no problem."

Qin Wenyuan is really confident.

He never does anything unprepared.

Without certainty, he would never take a risk easily.

His life is so precious, he would not put himself in danger of losing his life at any time.

When Wei Zheng heard what Qin Wenyuan said, he said, "Then I am relieved."

Wei Zheng knew Qin Wenyuan, and if Qin Wenyuan said he was sure, then he must be sure.

So he raised his wine bowl and said, "Master Qin, come, I toast you and wish you a successful start and a triumphant return!"

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your good words."

…………

The night ends and the day dawns.

The first ray of morning sunlight shone through the window lattice, waking up the sleeping Qin Wenyuan.

Qin Wenyuan opened his eyes and felt a slight pain in his forehead.

"Wei Zheng, he knew I was going to go to war, but he still made me drink so much."

Qin Wenyuan got up helplessly and washed his face with cold water. They drank until very late last night, and Qin Wenyuan didn't know Wei Zheng was such a talkative person.

Qin Wenyuan was so tired that he couldn't even open his eyes, and Wei Zheng was finally helped away by Cen Wenben.

Qin Wenyuan also drank a lot, which was rare for him.

However, although I drank a lot, I was indeed happy.

It is a happy thing to have friends to help you on your journey.

"Husband, wake up!"

A familiar voice came from my ears. It was Changle.

At this moment she is sorting out her clothes for today.

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your help, Madam."

"Is there anything else that's bothering us?" Changle rolled her eyes and continued, "My husband, I have checked your clothes again and again. There must be no problem. There won't be any misunderstandings."

Say it.

She helped Qin Wenyuan change his clothes.

The couple didn't say a word during the journey.

Until the dressing is finished.

Changle then hugged Qin Wenyuan from behind, hugging him tightly.

"Husband, promise me that you will come back after this expedition."

There was a tremor in Changle's voice.

Obviously, his heart is not as calm as it appears on the surface.

Qin Wenyuan's heart trembled, and he nodded seriously: "Yes, I will."

"I, your husband, am a lucky person. Nanzhao is just a bunch of pigs. How could they possibly kill me?"

Changle laughed when he heard that.

"Okay, okay, okay! My husband, you are the best, but please don't take it lightly! Nanzhao is a country, so it naturally has its merits."
