This Person Is A Hidden Treasure Chapter 5

The hand reached out again.

Roman thought for a moment and said, "Can we change the position?"

Ah Liu chuckled and said, "It's okay if you don't want to pinch my face, just move your but.t closer."

After a while, the horse neighed loudly.

A round, big and smooth but.t came over.

Ah Liu just touched it and then laughed and scolded: "Are you a beast? Use this to pay it back."

Roman said: "You only said butt0cks, but you didn't say what butt0cks."

"I want your a**." Ah Liu started to act like a spoiled child.

Roman put down the horse, stroked the horse's head to comfort it, and shook his head, saying, "My but.t is not okay."

"Why not?"

"When I took refuge with the Marquis, I already had the intention of dedicating everything to him." Roman said sincerely.

"Flattering." Ah Liu muttered.

Roman shook his head and said, "I'm not flattering... I'm flattering as hard as I can."

When faced with someone as shameless as him, Liu could only remain silent.

"My Lord, you haven't said why you don't live in towns or villages." It was rare that they talked about something so far away, but Roman could still remember what the original topic was.

Marquis Xue Yi said lazily: "Didn't you say that I bully men and women and exploit the people in my hometown?"

"Later I changed my mind and felt that the Marquis was not that kind of person." Roman jumped on the horse.

"So what kind of person do you think I am?"

Roman said seriously: "After bullying men and women and exploiting the people in the village, they will definitely massacre the whole village and town, kill everyone, destroy the bodies and leave no one alive."

Marquis Xue Yi chuckled, but he didn't show any joy. "Just like..." He lowered his voice slowly, "What did I do in the Ni Ni Mountain?"

Roman said: "No, the Marquis did not bully men and women in the Ni Ni Mountain."

Marquis Xue Yi sneered and said, "Thank you for clarifying this for me."

"So, I have always suspected," Roman said with a hint of strangeness in his tone, "Is it because the Marquis failed to bully men and women that he must capture Ming Zun alive to make up for his loss?"

Sitting in the carriage, Marquis Xue Yi rested his chin on his hand and thought silently: Why did he want to talk to him? And why did he follow his words to discredit me? Why? Why?

Roman said: "In fact, I have also heard some rumors in the martial arts world."

When he heard the words "rumors in the martial arts world", Marquis Xue Yi's eyes jumped.

Sure enough, Roman continued, "My Lord, is it because Ming Zun once did this to you..."

"Roman." The threat from Xue Yi Hou started again.

Roman stopped talking.

"There is a limit to how much I value talent."

Roman said: "I have confidence in the Marquis's tolerance."

Snow-robed Marquis said coldly, "I have no confidence in your outspokenness."

Roman muttered, "But the Marquis clearly told me to guess the Marquis's intention to encircle and suppress the Demon Cult..."

"I didn't ask you to guess. I asked you to tell me the answer directly." Snowy Marquis paused and said, "Also, I hate whispering. Either you speak loudly or you don't say anything at all. Choose one of the two."

Roman said: "I was just whispering loudly just now, otherwise how could the Marquis hear it?"

Snowy Marquis: ...

In fact, this kind of conversation between the two has continued from the beginning to now.

Xue Yi Hou wanted to drag Roman away several times, chop him with knives, whip him with whips, and hit him with boards...but Roman is still alive and well.

Ah Liu was very confused about this and he asked the question several times both openly and secretly.

Marquis Xue Yi always dismissed them with an unfathomable expression.

But what was he saying? Ah Liu couldn't understand it at all.

In fact, not to mention him, even Xue Yi Hou himself sometimes doesn't understand.

Because no matter from which perspective, Roman's behavior was weird.

If he really wanted to be an official and came to seek refuge, he should be careful in what he said and did, and try his best to climb up by following his lead. But he didn't.

If he had other purposes and wanted to sneak into the mansion to undermine the enemy, he should have been more cautious in his words and deeds to win his trust. But he was not like that.

It would be more accurate to say that Roman was constantly mocking him rather than trying to curry favor with him - but what was the purpose behind this?

Snowy Marquis was puzzled. Perhaps it was because of his tolerance for him that he had the illusion that he could win his favor in this way? So far, Snowy Marquis had only this explanation.

"Roman." Marquis Xue Yi suddenly said, "I want to make a bet with you."

Roman narrowed his eyes, and lay back lazily, feeling the sunlight coming through the gaps between the leaves. "My Lord, please speak."

"If you can make it all the way from here to Taiyuan without making me angry, you can choose any position below the fifth rank. No matter what position you want to be, I will do my best to help you get it."

Roman opened his eyes, "My Lord is really willing to spend a lot of money." There are so many officials below the fifth rank, and there are carrots in the pit. Letting him pick whatever he wants means that the original carrots will be squeezed out of the pit and put him in. This is not only about convincing the emperor, if there are forces behind those officials, they also need to deal with them.

"how?"

"What if I lose?"

Snowy Marquis said slowly: "It's very simple. If you lose, then take a bath seriously every day."

Roman's mouth corners inadvertently rose, but his voice was completely opposite to his smile, "It's a pity that the Marquis doesn't become a businessman."

"Don't dare?"

"With wealth and glory within my reach, why should I back down?" Roman said, "I'll take the gamble."

"Very good." Xue Yi Hou said, "Then in the next few days, you must take a bath seriously every day."

Roman was stunned, but couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "The Marquis is worthy of being the Marquis. It's a sure win."

Snowy Marquis smiled proudly, "This is just the beginning."

Roman soon realized that the beginning he mentioned was indeed the beginning.

Ever since he took a bath every day, Xue Yi Hou sent Ah Liu to ride a horse and moved him to the carriage to serve.

It was also the first time that Roman realized that serving people required such a profound knowledge.

Making tea is a science.

Finding books also requires knowledge.

If Marquis Xue Yi occasionally asked a few questions that he couldn't answer, it went without saying that he was just uneducated.

Roman had been busy in the carriage for three days, but he was more tired than handling official duties in the Ni Ni Mountain for three years. The most tiring thing was that whenever he showed a little impatience, laziness or fatigue, Xue Yi Hou would remind him lightly: "Actually, it's not bad to take a bath every day."

...

So Roman started moving again with full energy.

6 Betrayal is justified (V)

Gradually, Roman and A Liu became familiar with each other and finally understood the reason why they never visited the village.

Ah Liu said, "The Marquis hates the smell of chickens, dogs, and people. The Marquis has a very good nose."

Roman asked curiously, "Why doesn't he mind the smell of horses?"

"The horses are also dissatisfied, but there is nothing you can do when you are out and about." Ah Liu said, "So the Marquis rarely gets off the carriage."

Roman said thoughtfully: "If I smell of horse, will the Marquis kick me out of the carriage?"

Ah Liu said, "Yes."

Roman's eyes lit up.

"But the Marquis will wait until you are clean before returning."

Roman sighed and said, "Why is there no permanent solution?"

"If you have body odor, you can get rid of it once and for all." said Ah Liu.

Roman's eyes lit up again. Although he didn't have body odor, he could find a way to create a smell similar to body odor.

Ah Liu said: "The Marquis hates people around him with body odor the most. If you have body odor, and you are so close to him..." He shook his head.

Roman asked: "How is it?"

"The knife rises and falls, and the effect is immediate." In order to enhance the effect, he also made a special gesture.
