Chapter 159 There is always someone who can't be idle
ps: I took my son yesterday and forgot to upload the chapters. I will add one chapter today and tomorrow. The time will start at 19 pm. I will be presented to you during the third update!
Cui Yuqing has already gone abroad and has given the butler a few words to let Ning Wen tell him that it is all related to the things planted in the field. Anyway, let Ning Wen take care of it first, and let Ning Wen say sorry to his brothers. In May, there will be a few businessmen coming from the Marine side, and there are some things Ning Wen needs, and the butler will take it to Ning Mansion.
Jingle, Ning Wen has some impression that he seems to be a foreigner in the Northeast. He seems to have not yet been civilized and does not know how to eliminate the language barriers between the two sides. English is definitely not possible. Just gesture communication may not work. Forget it, let’s talk about it then, Ning Wen muttered in his heart.
Zuiyue Tower also asked Sao Cui to take down the store. The housekeeper's surname was Wei. He smiled and took out the property certificate to Ning Wen. Ning Wen looked at the document with a big red handprint and asked:
"Butler Wei, I don't know how much the Zuiyue Tower is. Ning didn't bring so much money. Why would he ask the account room in the mansion to bring it to Butler Wei later?"
There is no free lunch in the world, and brothers settle the score clearly. Ning Wen probably had to spend at least 80 cents. Butler Wei's smile was even brighter, and he shook his head vigorously and said:
"Oh, Manager Ning, I don't know the price. Why don't Manager Ning ask when the head of the family comes back?"
Alas, Ning Wen smiled slightly and shook his head to say goodbye to Butler Wei. Since Mr. Cui was willing to give us a restaurant, I don’t know if it was considered a bribe. Anyway, the name was written by his own. Why don’t you wait for Mr. Cui to come back? This little money is nothing to the Ning family or the Cui family.

In the same mansion, Lu Sheng and Sheng Lian were standing aside, looking carefully at Li Ke sitting in the middle hall. It has been almost three years since Li Ke understood the benefits of being an emperor, this mansion has been his own other home.
Li Chengqian has been staying in the Eastern Palace to recuperate recently, and it seems that he is a little relieved, but his subordinates have not stopped their activities. Changsun Wuji also tried his best to help Li Chengqian reverse the decline. As for Li Tai, he was on the surface, but he has offended many people. Now he has tried his best to instigate his father to expand the Yong'an Palace, and the civil and military officials in the court are quarreling.
"Your Highness, the artillery battalion is preparing for war. If something happens at this moment, even if His Majesty says nothing, the civil and military men in the court will drown him!"
Lu Sheng said gloomyly, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
Li Ke shook his head without slashing and said lightly:
"It's not appropriate. The front-line war is unclear at this moment. If the artillery battalion is incorrect, it may be detrimental to our Tang Dynasty. This is the worst strategy. Did Miss Hongyu wake up?"
On that day, Hongyu jumped off the Qujiang River. Jinwu Guard searched for him for a month but disappeared. He only said that he was washed away by the river. Unexpectedly, he was rescued by Li Ke. Hongyu was very lucky. Although he was stunned for several months, he finally saved his life.
"I'm going back to your highness, I haven't woken up yet, I'm afraid I'm not going to do anything about it!"
Lu Sheng glanced at Li Ke, afraid that the King of Shu would get angry, so he replied carefully.
"It's okay, just keep her life. Remember, don't leak the news. Then, the teaching team will also get a few of our people in. Maybe it will be useful in the future."
"Yes, but once you go in, can you still be reliable? Just like those of the artillery camp, I feel unwilling to follow us anymore!"
Lu Sheng looked at Li Ke with some concern.
"Sheng Lian, send all the families of those people to Longyou! There is a shortage of staff there! The people sent to the teaching team must be more reliable. Those who are in the artillery camp are a problem, find a way to shut up!"

"Commander, something happened to the Second Company and the Third Company recently, five people died. Zhao Er, the deputy company commander of the Second Company, was also dead. I'm afraid it's a bit strange!"
Qin Huaiyu flipped through the records in his hand and handed them to Ning Wen.
Ning Wen frowned. This was too strange. Five people died one after another. They all happened during training. They looked like accidents, but five accidents in a row made people unable to believe it no matter what.
"Dedicated and carefully check the resumes of these people to see if there is anything doubtful."
It must have been sent by someone. Ning Wen had an unknown premonition in his heart. Li Chengqian was the most suspicious. Only he could have such ability. He had not seen the prince during this period, but the formation of the artillery battalion was almost at the same time as Li Chengqian's loss of power. He could not guarantee that the prince felt unstable and intended to install a few confidants in the artillery battalion, but why did he kill these people now? Ning Wen was a little confused.
"Commander, we are also careless. These are all backbones of each company, with a squad leader and aiming at the hands. I think the people behind the scenes must be dissatisfied with our artillery camp, and even hold a grudge against the commander. It will definitely not be done by foreigners."
Du Gou was thinking about it all the time, feeling that these people were coming for Ning Wen, but Du Gou couldn't speak clearly.
Ning Wen nodded and said with some depression:
"No need to say more, these people must have come to Ning, but they don't know what to do, or it will be unfavorable to me or the artillery battalion. From now on, we will carefully check the origins of all the officers and soldiers again to see if we can find out the same place as these five people. Dedicated, we will be blessed with you in just a few days."
"Commander, this matter must not be leaked. The investigation must also be carried out in secret. Don't alarm the enemy!"
Huaiyu added, and everyone nodded.
Although Ning Wen was worried about the war, the generals came to block the water and soil. After all, Ning Wen was a little worried, the artillery battalion was strictly guarded and the people outside could not get in. As for the people inside, they were not afraid of anything. They were not afraid of these 300 people. If they wanted to do anything, this would definitely not be a suitable place. Unless the people behind the scenes were not clear-headed, Ning Wen was temporarily relieved and hadn't been to the East Palace for a long time. Li Chengqian was the most suspicious in Ning Wen. Taking this opportunity to at least check the reality of the prince. What Ning Wen was still a little unhappy was that he had a happy cooperation with Li Chengqian before, but he turned against him in just over a month. Isn't it too unreasonable? Even if he wanted to rebel and rebellion, he would not be incompetent with the artillery battalion. After all, the artillery battalion was not competent for stability maintenance.
In the Xiande Hall of the East Palace, Li Chengqian curled up on the couch, looked at Ning Wen in a listless manner, smiled bitterly, pointed to the cushion beside him, and signaled Ning Wen to sit down and talk.
Without the free-standing chair and the ordinary Grand Master chair, Ning Wen could hardly see the things he sent. Ning Wen was a little worried, not knowing why this happened.
"Haha, Guangcheng's objects have been given away by me. Guangcheng won't blame me!"
Since Li Chengqian became limp, his temperament has also changed drastically. He spent all day in the Eastern Palace, singing and dancing, throwing the government behind his head, as if he was competing with Li Shimin.
"Haha, Your Highness is so careless. How dare I blame Your Highness? You are busy with political affairs and haven't come to visit Your Highness for a long time. You have some free time today. Now, you are here. How are your Highness recently?"
Ning Wen was a little strange. Seeing Li Chengqian in front of him, he didn't believe in the matter of the cannon camp, and he was involved with Li Chengqian. The prince was completely letting himself go. For some reason, was it possible that any red jade girl really made Li Chengqian fall in love with, which made him so sick and dead?
"Haha, since I broke my leg, the East Palace has been like a demon cave. Few people come here. Ning Wen is a real man. I still remember this king, he is the King of Japan... Haha, forget it, Guangcheng's intention, I know this. People are terrifying. Commander Ning is fine, so please don't run to this East Palace if you have nothing to do, so as not to attract villains to plot against. Now I can't protect myself and can't help Guangcheng."
Li Chengqian's face changed slightly, and a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes, but he was soon overwhelmed by a bitterness.
