MTL - I Built a Territory in Ancient Times-Chapter 116 Festival
The horse was frightened and ran wild, no one could control it, and almost everyone was stunned.
Now that many people have said so, Song Lian now has reason to believe that these bottles are weird, and that all the consequences are due to this.
Song Lian repeated her conjecture, Tuoba Ren pondered and said nothing. He has never figured out, what kind of bottle can have such a power to burst, accompanied by a roar of fire, is this really manpower? However, what Song Lian said was reasonable. Even if it was not manpower, they would have to be implicated in it. Without an explanation, the soldiers would not be able to overcome this hurdle.
"Maybe we can send someone to investigate the craftsmanship, maybe there will be any clues," Song Lian suggested.
Tuoba Ren shook his head and sighed, "The case has just been committed in Liangcheng. Duan Wang will definitely rectify it when he returns. It is not appropriate to move now. After a while, the king will think of a solution. Cough..."
He coughed a few times and said regretfully, "It's a pity that Tuoba Jiu has been exposed. If he continues to hide, he might gain something."
Song Lian shook her head and said, "The management of the craftsmanship is very strict, and the real core is the people who came from the capital with Duan Wang. Although Ninth Young Master is in the craftsmanship, he doesn't really know what the real thing looks like."
When it comes to Tuoba Jiu, Tuoba Ren is obviously a little impatient. Although this man was also the son of the previous king, none of the members of their royal family regarded him as a brother. A son of a Chinese woman, is also worthy of being on an equal footing with these princes? snort! It's because the eldest brother is kind and willing to let him return to the royal court to be an idle king.
Thinking of his eldest brother Tuoba Hongze, Tuoba Ren's face sank. This mission turned out to be a failure. How did he explain to his eldest brother when he returned to Wang Ting this time. At the beginning, it was guaranteed that King Dayan Duan would be brought back. Now, not only has he not seen anyone, but he has also suffered heavy losses. I am afraid that the old people in Wang Ting will have to watch him laugh behind his back again.
Song Lian thought it was her remarks that made this person unhappy, and remedied: "Don't worry, my lord, after the matter is over, I will find a way to clear it up next time."
Tuoba Ren let out a sullen "um", he was already tired, and he was just recovering from a serious illness, so his energy and spirit naturally couldn't stand it.
Song Lian settled him down, walked out of the carriage, and looked at the southern sky that was drifting away. For some reason, a sour feeling surged in his heart, and he clenched his fists. This is... can't go back, right?
…
Today's emperor's big day of Halloween, it is natural to make preparations early, and the whole world celebrates it. The large and small alleys in the capital have long been decorated with colorful silk and silk flowers, and on the day of the Qianqiu Festival, the emperor and the people are happy, and everyone is beaming.
Ming Yu's long motorcade slowly drove into the city gate, escorted by the guards of the imperial guards with tall horses, looking very majestic.
People on the side of the road whispered and were very curious, which vassal king's team was this? So majestic.
"You don't know this, right?" Someone well-informed couldn't help but want to share it with everyone, "This is the car of the fourteenth son of the current emperor, King Duan."
"King Duan? It's the fool who was entrusted to Liangcheng last year... His Royal Highness the Fourteenth Prince?" It was obvious that someone was very surprised.
"Who else would it be if it wasn't him? Look at this guard, that's the personal guard by the emperor's side."
"Tsk tsk! In such a big battle, how could a prince dare to use the emperor's elite guards to **** him? This...how is this possible?" Someone said in disbelief.
"Hey! Say it to scare you to death, but I listened to what my uncle of the Imperial Guard said, this is the **** that His Majesty the Emperor personally decreed to give to Prince Duan, a thousand elite guards, in the whole world, except His Majesty the Emperor Younger son, who has such grace?" The man proudly showed off, his brother-in-law of the Praetorian Guards. The news is well-informed, and he even knows which palace concubine the emperor stopped at last night.
Most people really don't know about this. Some people started to ask curiously what was going on, and that person picked up and said a general idea. Everyone is envious. It is really stupid to have stupid blessings. Huangdi really has nothing to say about this stupid son. I am afraid that His Royal Highness does not have such a holy family, right?
"Did you see it? The carts of boxes at the back of the convoy belong to the Western Regions?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, something from the Western Regions? That's all good stuff! Everyone still remembers the last storm, but this time I brought back so much, but I don't know how big a storm will be, tsk tsk!
Above a luxury restaurant on the street, a man dressed in luxurious clothes held a glass of wine, leaned against the railing, looked at the group of people, let out a cold snort from his nostrils, and drank the wine in his hand. do.
"What's wrong with the third brother?" The young man, who was eating food at the wine table while admiring the singing of the singer, found the man's displeasure and couldn't help asking.
The man came over, put the wine glass heavily on the table, and sneered: "That stupid fourteen is back."
The young man was stunned for a moment, and turned his head before he realized, "Third brother, did you mean that the fourteen who went to Liangcheng came back?"
Someone next to him came forward to fill the glass with wine. The young man was a little unhappy and waved his hand to let everyone back down. The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and the people serving in the room filed out.
When the door was locked, the young talent said in a low voice, "Count the days, the old fourteenth should be here, why? Is the third brother still angry with him?"
The two people in the elegant room are Mingtao, the third son of the emperor, and Mingzhen, the eleventh son of the emperor. The two are brothers, both sons of Concubine Hui, so their relationship has always been very good.
Mingtao was sullen, but he didn't expect that this person had already been sealed by his father to the border area, and he could still get his father's holy family. Look at his guards, all of them are the elite guards who are closely guarding the father and emperor, and it is difficult for him to even meet these people on weekdays.
But the royal father was too eccentric, and sent a thousand elite guards directly to Ming Yu. Just now, he saw that majestic and eight-faced chariot driving a battle, why didn't he make him feel uneasy?
"We are both sons of the emperor, why is he the only one who is different?" Ming Tao was so angry that he picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it as if venting his anger.
At this time, there are no outsiders, so I am not afraid of being spread out. Mingzhen personally raised the jug to help Mingtao fill a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "The third brother is wrong, Ming Yu is a foolish person, why is the third brother compared to him?"
Mingtao slapped the table heavily, "It is precisely because of a fool like him that he is able to have his father's family, even if he causes a great disaster, he will protect him. Let's look at us again, there is a little something wrong, isn't it? To be scolded is to be punished, which is really popular."
Ming Zhen took a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth, nodded and said: "The third brother is right, but the fourteenth is a little stupid, but who told him and the prince to have an early death queen mother, because of this , the difference between direct descendants and concubines, we have to be born short."
Speaking of this incident, Ming Tao was even more upset. The prince is a useless, timid and afraid of things. How can there be a prince of a country? In terms of ingenuity, bravery, and fortitude, his third prince Mingtao is more than one star stronger than his prince Mingye. Obviously he has worked very hard, but the father's eyes seem to be unable to see him. This is really outrageous, the older the father really is, the more difficult the eyes are.
Now this idiot helped the prince get those goods from the Western Regions, which made the prince make a lot of money, and his wealth and reputation have increased to an unprecedented level. He still resents the favoritism of the father and the emperor, and did not let him intervene. If he can work from it, he can definitely do better than the prince.
"Unfortunately, why didn't the Yi people kidnap him and kill him?" Mingtao complained.
I just saw dozens of trucks of goods behind the convoy, and I thought it was the goods from the Western Regions. The frenzied buying wave caused by these things is still vivid in my mind last time. Are those furs, treasures, spices, and glass not rare? Not to mention the hard-to-find glass products, that thing called pepper is now worth as much as gold.
It's a pity that these things were all wrapped up by the prince, and he still thought that since he couldn't get in, then let the prince not want to profit. The things that Ming Yu got from the Western Regions are considered to be from the Dayan court. It is better to let the father emperor return to the court, so that it can also fill the treasury, and there is nothing to do with the prince.
Unexpectedly, the father just glanced at him, and then easily dismissed it: This was obtained by the old fourteen with all his efforts, how can it be said that it is charged to the state treasury? Fourteen to take care of the prince, then go tossing with the prince, the old fourteen didn't say anything, but you are worried. Don't keep staring at it, just do your part.
Just one sentence blocked him back.
Now that the second batch is back, the impact may be even greater. How can people not be jealous? No, he must find a way to not allow the prince to profit alone.
Mingzhen knew the knot in Mingtao's heart. It was really inappropriate to bring up such a topic, so he was smart enough not to mention it, and changed the subject and said, "Come on, it's not just that you don't like him, but I also don't like him. I'm back now, one day I'll make an appointment with Little Twelve and give him a hard time." He was gearing up, and the implication was that he wanted to find Ming Yu's fault.
I think when Ming Yu was in the palace, he didn't deal with them. To be precise, they didn't like this fool and often went to trouble him. It's a pity that this kid doesn't look at him stupid, he can be ruthless in the dark, he turned his head and pretended to be innocent and cried and complained to the emperor. As a result, not only did they not take advantage, but they were punished by the emperor.
Xiao Twelve was rectified by him several times, and he was incompatible with him, vowing to
