Chapter 227: The Black-robed Prince
In the next two days, the city was boiling, one is that the grandstand of the game was finally completed, which is the most peculiar grandstand that the people have ever seen since the founding of the Jokhang Kingdom.
The stands are much shorter than the ordinary stands, not as high as the previous ones, and the people still have to hold their heads high, and their necks are sore when they watch a game.
And this time, it was built at a low place, and the stands of the people were at a high place, which was really rare, so that you only need to lower your eyes slightly to see the game clearly, and this ingenious mind made everyone can't help but be amazed.
There are many peculiarities about the stands, such as the extremely soft and tough ropes around the stops, all of which are the thickness of thumbs, and it is said that the players are so careful that they are not injured when they are knocked off the stage.
For another example, the highlight is the several banners pulled up around the venue, all of which are made of bright solid cloth, with big characters written on them, Tianfuju first-class dishes, Kelai Inn comfortable as home, Tianguixiang pastry time-honored brand, etc., appear in the eyes of the people in a peculiar form, which is really fresh.
The second thing that made the city boil was that the envoys of the Mingxiao Kingdom and the Ling Five Kingdoms had arrived one after another, and the leader of the Mingxiao Kingdom was the enchanting Seven Princes, who had a long reputation in the country, wearing a vermilion robe like a cloud with a glow on the horizon, and the smile on his face was faint, like a spring breeze, especially those eyes, his gaze was flowing and radiant, and he was even more delicate and charming than a woman's.
And he brought his three sisters, a princess, and two county lords, all of whom were out of appearance, especially the princess, the youngest, but the most lively and agile, although she was only fifteen or sixteen years old and had not yet grown, but it could be seen that she was a beauty, and Hao Lian Zize was very similar between her eyebrows, and she liked to wear gorgeous clothes, and the various gems on her body made people's eyes shine, and the whole person was like a jewel shining with colorful treasures, forcing it in front of your eyes.
The leader of Ling Wuguo is a prince, about forty years old, is the imperial uncle of the emperor of Ling Wuguo, holding military power, it is said that although this kind of game is important, it should not be him, but whether it should be or not, he is here, and with eighteen skilled cavalry, the eighteen horse's hooves are the same on the day they appeared, and the knights on the horse looked as hard as iron, and the whole team was full of slaughter.
As soon as Ling Wuguo appeared, it was completely different from the Mingxiao Kingdom that arrived first, and the whole street was a kind of depressing, breathless coercion.
And then, there was a dramatic scene, a big dog suddenly ran out, and there was a black rag cloth hanging on its body, and between running and rushing, the rag silk cloth also shook and trembled, like people in the wind.
"Who?" One of the eighteen knights stepped forward on his horse, and with a "bang" he showed the spear in his hand, the tip of the spear was as cold as ice, and it roared with a murderous aura, and the red spear was like a flame, beating with the wind.
The big dog stopped, gasping for breath with its shiny white teeth, its eyes fixed fiercely at the knight, its body arched high, like a bow ready to shoot a sharp arrow.
"Ah...... Sorry, sorry! "A small guy ran out of a street corner, wearing a blue cloth coat, a small hat on his head, a little face drenched in sweat, flushed, panting in his mouth, and holding his stomach with one hand, looking like he had been running for a long time.
The knight's gaze froze, and he nailed it to the little guy's body like a nail, and the tip of the spear was raised, straight at the little guy.
The little guy stood down, his eyes swept over the tip of the gun, and he took a few breaths and said, "I'm sorry, the dog was startled, and he didn't hold it for a while." β
The people on the whole street watched, and they all held their breath, the iron-blooded slaughter of the eighteen horsemen just now was breathless, and now rushing out of such a dog is really making people unable to turn around for a while.
The knight's horse strode on the spot, and the hooves clattered on the bluestone ground, like a knock on the hearts of the people, and the knight's eyes swirled around the little guy's face and the dog, and the tip of the spear glittered coldly in the sunlight.
"What?" A question came from the carriage behind him, his voice low and cold.
"Back to the prince, it was a dog that rushed out to block the car." The knight looked back and saluted respectfully.
Although the carriage was very tight, it was impossible for the people in the carriage to see the knight's movements, but the knight did not dare to be sloppy.
"Killed." The two of them were crisp and neat, without a trace of hesitation, although they were not murderous, but they seemed to grind out from between their teeth, which made people's hearts tighten.
The knight did not speak, but his eyes flashed, and he raised his hand, raised his gun, and pointed the tip of the spear at the dog and stabbed it.
"No!" The little guy yelled, bent down quickly, took the dog leash in his hand, and pulled it in his arms fiercely, and the tip of the spear was only less than three centimeters away from the dog's body.
"Do you know whose dog this is?" Seeing that the dog was not in danger for the time being, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and raised his head and asked.
"What does it have to do with me?" Immediately, the knight said coldly.
"This is the dog of my lord, my lord is the emperor's eighth prince, His Royal Highness King Qi, this is His Royal Highness King Qi's favorite dog, every day I think that the living creatures are fed, just eating meat will consume three taels of silver a day! Can you say kill and kill? The little girl's voice was crisp, like a silver bell.
The knight's gaze flickered, King Qi? He hesitated slightly, but the people around him took a breath in unison, three taels of silver a day! Just this dog's food! An ordinary person can't earn three taels of silver for half a year!
The little guy pulled the dog behind him, raised his hand and pointed at the dog's forehead, and said, "Look at you, let you run away disobediently, and now you are in trouble, right?" Look at me when I go back to tell the prince sΓΉ that you eat less than half of your food at night! β
He said to himself, completely ignoring the others, and his voice was not small, and the people listened with their ears up, but they did not notice, and the corner of the little man's eyes glanced slightly at the tight carriage.
"That's it, it's just a dog, keep going." Finally, the voices in the carriage rang out again.
"Yes." The knight said respectfully, he took his spear, and said to the little man, "Go quickly!" There are a lot of lords in my family, so I don't care about you. β
The little guy was not in a hurry, pulled the dog slowly, walked to the intersection in front of him, and muttered as he walked: "Da Ming, look at you...... Always get into trouble, turn all the black robes that the master gave you into rags, and fight with the yellow dog on the street again, right? How many times have you said that...... Whether you fight or not, it's all your territory, what are you fighting with him? When you come to your territory, are you still afraid that he won't listen to you? β
His words were very slow, he could hear every word very clearly, and the time was just right, and as soon as the words fell, the person turned out of the intersection.
There was silence all around, and then someone laughed, and then there was laughter, like thunder.
The knight's face changed, anger and panic appeared on his face, and he immediately took his horse to chase after him, but when he reached the junction, it was empty, and all the men and dogs were gone, and where could he go to find people?
He turned his head in a panic and looked at the sturdy carriage, and the driver shook his hand slightly, lowered his head and held his breath, hating to pretend that he did not exist.
Sitting in the car was the prince of the Five Kingdoms, Yue Zhanming.
He is the imperial uncle of the Emperor of the Five Kingdoms of Ling, who is in charge of military power, has made a lot of military achievements, and is burly, and is known as the "black-robed prince" because he likes to wear a black robe.
And the words of the little guy just now were obviously aimed at Yue Zhanming in the carriage, that is to say, this little guy deliberately appeared to stop Yue Zhanming's carriage! And to him those words of implied warning!
Yue Zhanming in the carriage had a dark face as iron, and his face was full of murderous intentions on his hard lines of the national character, originally he arranged it very well, and brought these eighteen horsemen, one is to let the people and officials of Zhao see his style and strength, and then to create his own reputation.
But I didn't expect that at this time, it was actually ruined by a dog!
Moreover, he didn't have a place to reason, if it was in normal times, he could still blame the Jokhang State for not being able to greet the officials, and actually let a dog rush in, but this time, Jokhang Guo said that his reputation is powerful all over the world, and he should go ahead, so that the people of Jokhang can have a good look at the demeanor that the prince relies on.
He was praised with joy, and naturally there was no objection, in fact, this is what he was looking forward to, let those chaotic teams go ahead, how to show the coercion of the eighteen horsemen? How can you force the heartstrings of the people of Jokhang and make them fearful?
It's hateful!
His palm was like a knife, slashing hard at the small table in the carriage, with a "click", the small few broke a leg, and the melons and fruits on the small table "fluttered" and rolled down the cart.
At the same time that Yue Wangye was angry, the filial piety maid who had already turned from the alley to another courtyard was patting the head of "Da Ming", Leng Fifteen stood in front of it, holding fresh beef in his hand, and said with a smile: "Princess, you have this idea...... It's so awesome, I guess that guy is so angry that he's about to vomit blood now. β
A beautiful-looking woman under the tree turned around and said with a slight smile: "No matter how majestic he is the prince of the Five Kingdoms, he can only go to his Ling Five Kingdoms to swing, what kind of majesty does he show when he goes to Dazhao?" The Jokhang Kingdom has its own god of war, and it is not his turn to shake his majesty. β
Leng Fifteen frowned and smiled, and gave Da Ming the beef in his hand, "What the princess said is that Yue Zhanming is a defeated general under the prince, and he is embarrassed to put on this kind of battle." β
"It's because I lost that I want to win back," Rong Xi said lightly, the corners of his mouth hooked a hint of sarcasm, "This kind of person who is eager to attack is also worthy of leading soldiers?" β
As she spoke, she leisurely turned the agate bracelet in her hand, which Leng Yixiu specially chose for her, calming her mind and replenishing her heart, which is the best for women.
"From today onwards, send people to keep an eye on the movements of Ling Wuguo."
"Yes."
