Chapter 76 He Confessed

Li Xiangneng didn't expect that this cook Zhang would actually expose him.

This guy is so desperate! How abominable!

Li Xiangneng glared at the cook Zhang fiercely: "What nonsense are you talking about! How dare I reduce everyone's food!"

"General, please understand, I have been wronged!" Li Xiangneng's expression looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.

[Tsk tsk tsk, how come these villains' acting skills are so good? They must be the ones to win the Oscar! ]

Gu Xun, Gu Changce: What? What little golden man?

"Li Xiangneng! You ordered me to deceive the general, and you wanted to leave me behind!" Chef Zhang was almost mad with rage.

Seeing the two of them starting to quarrel with each other, Gu Xun became a little impatient.

"Someone, check the accounts!"

Hearing this, Li Xiangneng shut his mouth instantly.

General Gu is going to check the accounts, it seems like I’m really done for!

No matter how authentic the accounts are, as long as you check them carefully and verify them one by one, you will definitely find out that I have tampered with them!
Li Xiangneng knew that if he continued to resist, it would be in vain, and he realized that it was only a matter of time before he withheld military rations and salaries.

Thinking of this, Li Xiangneng knelt down all of a sudden, "General, it was all my fault that I was so greedy and did such a thing. General, I didn't touch the military rations and military pay at all. I hope that the general will spare my life for this reason."

Gu Xun was not moved when he heard this.

The embezzlement of military rations and salaries is a serious matter.

The country is based on the people, and the country is protected by the soldiers. If the army is not united and the soldiers have complaints, the country will naturally fall apart easily.

If the act of withholding military rations and salaries is not severely punished, there will definitely be people who are tempted to do this in the future!

Gu Xun ordered all the soldiers to gather together and stand outside the general tent.

"Soldiers, you have been training hard every day!"

Hearing Gu Xun's words, all the soldiers shouted in unison, "General, we are not tired!"

"However, I also made a mistake. I failed to discipline my subordinates and failed to notice in time that you were being wronged!"

When the soldiers heard this, they were a little confused. Why did the general admit his mistake? What mistake did the general make?

"This man is Li Xiangneng, I'm sure everyone knows him. He actually dared to enrich himself and withhold your military pay and rations. He is truly audacious!"

As soon as these words fell, discussions broke out among the soldiers below.

"I thought the general asked us to cut down on food and military pay."

"It turns out that he was the one who withheld our military pay and rations. How despicable!"

"Soldiers, do you think we should spare him?"

"cannot!"

"We can't let him off!"

"Withholding military pay and rations is a serious matter! The emperor once said that the soldiers must not suffer. People like Li Xiangneng who do such things are violating the emperor's will! Those who violate the emperor's will should be executed according to the law!"

Hearing this, the kneeling Li Xiangneng suddenly felt weak all over. Didn't he tell General Gu that all the military rations and salaries that he had privately withheld would be handed over?
"Someone, punish Li Xiangneng by military law!"

Of course, Gu Jiangmeng couldn't let him see this scene, so Gu Changce carried Gu Jiangmeng to play somewhere else.

Seeing Li Xiangneng's fate, the soldiers' anger dissipated instantly.

"The general is mighty!"

"The general is mighty!"

"Soldiers, continue your training! During the holidays, go to the battlefield, protect Anlin Country, and make outstanding contributions!"

Hearing this, the soldiers' hearts were filled with excitement!

"Defend the country and make great contributions!"

"Defending the country and making great contributions!" After dealing with the matter, Gu Xun was in a good mood, thanks to Gu Jiangmeng, otherwise he would not know when this matter would be discovered.

But this is also my fault for being too negligent in my daily life. It seems that I have to be more cautious in the future and send more people to inspect, so that such things will never happen again!

In the afternoon, Gu Jiangmeng slept in Gu Changce's arms for an hour. After all, children are sleepy and can never get enough sleep.

Because Gu Jiangmeng fell asleep in Gu Changce's arms, Gu Changce was worried that putting Gu Jiangmeng on the bed would wake her up, so he kept this posture.

Just sitting there stupidly, Gu Changce fell asleep leaning against the bed.

When Gu Jiangmeng woke up, he looked up and saw Gu Changce sleeping.

The boy's chin was tilted towards him, with a beautiful curve. His eyelashes, as long as butterfly wings, covered his lower eyelids, casting a slight shadow.

[My second brother is really good-looking~]

[Even when he is asleep, he is still so handsome. Isn’t this a perfect Sleeping Beauty? 】

Although Gu Changce was in a light sleep, he woke up after hearing a lot of Gu Jiangmeng's thoughts.

After all, Gu Jiangmeng's inner voice on this matter sounded soft and baby-like, which was very hypnotic.

When he opened his eyes, Gu Changce saw Gu Jiangmeng in his arms with her big watery eyes open, a slight smile on her face and saliva at the corners of her mouth.

This... Jiang Meng thinks I'm delicious and is drooling over me?

[So handsome, I am really obsessed with my second brother’s beauty and cannot help myself…]

Gu Changce: ...Are you bragging about yourself? (* ̄︶ ̄)
But my little sister, when you grow up, you will definitely be a peerless beauty, and I don’t know which boy you will marry!

Thinking of this, Gu Changce felt an inexplicable surge of anger in his heart.

I will never let this happen! Jiang Meng can't marry anyone! She can only be our Gu family's good daughter and my good sister!
At this time, Gu Jiangmeng didn't know that Gu Changce had already thought about her future marriage.

[Hey, why does my second brother suddenly look so angry? Is he having a nightmare? ]

Hearing this, Gu Changce's expression quickly returned to normal with a smile on his face.

"Jiang Meng, you're awake. I accidentally fell asleep. Come on, I'll take you out for a walk."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Changce stood up holding Gu Jiangmeng.

"Ouch~" Gu Changce couldn't help but snort.

After sleeping for a while while holding Gu Jiangmeng, my arms and legs are numb...

[Ah? What's wrong with you, second brother? ]

Gu Changce forced his arms to hold Gu Jiangmeng aside. Then he stretched out his arms and jumped a few times.

[Hahahaha, it turns out that the second brother's arms and legs are numb, hahahaha~]

Seeing Gu Jiangmeng's merciless ridicule, Gu Changce: It's because I'm holding you (/_\)
After recovering, Gu Changce carried Gu Jiangmeng outside the tent to see how the soldiers were training.

Gu Changce knew that Gu Jiangmeng liked to watch archery, so he took Gu Jiangmeng to watch it.

[What a pity, you almost hit the bull's eye, come on! ]

[This is not very good, it's all shot off target. ]

[This... this is amazing! ]

Gu Jiangmeng was watching with great interest when he realized that he was being carried away.

[Ahhh~ Second brother, what are you doing? I still want to watch! ]

"Jiang Meng, let's go find dad~"

[Looking for daddy? Could it be that the bad guy who wanted to harm my second brother has been found? Then I won’t watch anymore, let’s go! ]
