Chapter 615: So what if she knows? (Please subscribe, please vote for monthly tickets)
By the time Li Chen finished his patrol and returned to the camp, Army Supervisor Wang was already waiting at the camp gate, his face changing unpredictably.
He had intended to bite the bullet and give a severe reprimand, but as soon as he saw Li Chen's indifferent gaze sweep over, he felt a sudden tremor in his heart for no reason, and the scolding on his lips was instantly swallowed back. He forced an official expression, took a deep breath, and said solemnly:
"Commandant Cheng, today's matter..." He paused, feeling Li Chen's gaze seem to turn a degree colder, and immediately changed his words: "... today's matter was handled well by you! You maintained order within the pass! Now that you are off duty, rest well, and the follow-up... the follow-up matters will be handled properly by this Army Supervisor!"
Li Chen nodded slightly and walked straight past him.
The soldiers who were pricking up their ears to eavesdrop were all stunned!
This newly arrived Commandant Cheng actually scared Army Supervisor Wang into submission with just one look? And even changed his words to praise him for handling it well to his face?
Returning to the barracks, Feng Shuo ran over, his face full of worship: "Brother Cheng! Awesome! Too awesome! Yesterday you beat the Chu family of the Imperial Capital, today you beat the Khan's nephew! Now in the entire Cold Iron Pass, who doesn't know that you are the real man! The number one brother of Cold Iron Pass is none other than you!"
Captain Batu on the side was so worried he was pulling his hair; he was of northern tribal descent and knew well that the new Khan Huyan Lan was extremely protective of his own, and this time there was truly big trouble.
Li Chen patted Feng Shuo on the shoulder and said very "humbly": "Overpraised, overpraised, I have always been very low-key."
Feng Shuo and Captain Batu heard this sentence and almost sprayed a mouthful of old blood.
You call this low-key? Could it be that you have to drag the Heavenly King and Old Man down and beat him up to be considered high-key?
After work, according to custom, officers would find some fun.
Feng Shuo affectionately hooked Li Chen's neck and whispered sneakily: "Brother Cheng, the Teaching Division of our Cold Iron Pass recently got a new top headliner! I heard she used to be a saintess of a certain sect, and because she broke the rules, she was demoted here to sell her art. Of course, it's not excluded that the Teaching Division is making a gimmick, but it is said she is truly a beauty! How about it? Go take a look?"
Li Chen heard this and became a little interested: "Sect saintess? A bit interesting, let's go, let's go take a look."
Feng Shuo enthusiastically invited Captain Batu again: "Old Captain Batu, together?"
Captain Batu shook his head like a rattle-drum, waving his hands repeatedly: "No, no! You go!"
He was a decent person; his salary wasn't high, and he had a family to support, so how could he dare to go to that kind of money-burning cave like the Teaching Division?
Not to mention such a big thing happened today, how could he have the heart to seek pleasure? Even if Feng Shuo treated him, he firmly wouldn't go.
Feng Shuo curled his lips, not caring about Captain Batu's refusal: "You guy is also boring, forget it, I won't talk about you, Brother Cheng, let's go, if we go late and that girl is booked by someone, we'll have run for nothing."
Li Chen was naturally not going to a wind-and-moon place like the Teaching Division for the first time, but the Teaching Division of Cold Iron Pass had a different northern style.
The women here were not as soft and charming as those in the Jiangnan water towns, but instead carried a bit of the wildness and enthusiasm of the frontier, serving boldly and directly, yet knowing how to grasp the measure.
Although it was afternoon, the building was already bustling with noise; merchants from all over the world, local prominent figures, and some officers on leave gathered here, and the air was filled with the fragrance of wine, powder, and a kind of noisy desire.
Precisely because most of these people had mediocre cultivation in their daily lives and found it difficult to come into contact with real sect fairies, the title of "former sect saintess" ignited the curiosity and desire for conquest of all men, drawing everyone to flock there, spending thousands of gold just to win a smile from the beauty.
Feng Shuo relied on his family's connections and quite a bit of silver to finally manage to get a position in the front.
The two sat down in the elegant seat, and immediately a gorgeously dressed maid sent up fine wine and melons and fruits, skillfully massaging their shoulders.
Feng Shuo saw Li Chen's calm demeanor, adapting to the surrounding environment extremely quickly, even more like a regular customer than him, so he squeezed his eyes and laughed: "Brother Cheng, looking at your posture, you are an old hand at this! You didn't go less before, right?"
Li Chen sipped his wine and smiled noncommittally.
He had indeed been to the Teaching Divisions of many places; after all, an Emperor also had to experience the suffering (joy) of the people.
Feng Shuo enjoyed the maid's massage while sneakingly lowering his voice: "Brother Cheng, you brought family with you, aren't you afraid that your lady will find out and make you kneel on a washboard at night?"
Li Chen glanced at him, his tone flat: "So what if she knows?" ===== CHAPTER 616 =====
