Chapter 142: The Princess's Move
With the Khan's final word, the others began to speak.
"Our tribe can come up with a thousand sheep, eighty oxen, and two hundred horses!"
"We have a lot of cattle in our tribe, and we can take out 300 heads!"
"Our tribe has a lot of collected herbs, which are very popular in Datang......
Jieli nodded frequently and smiled, yes, as long as you are willing to come out, so that you can ask Datang for more things this time.
In the barracks in Wuzhou, the gang leader has been recuperating for several days.
His injuries healed quickly, and after quietly removing the bandages, he could see that his wounds had scarred, and he would be able to recover in a few days and see his brothers again.
The captain was very emotional, if he had suffered such an arrow wound in the past, it would never have been as fast as him.
When it comes to the fundamentals, these bandages and pure water from Chang'an are really powerful, so that the healing time of the injury is several times earlier, and the most important thing is to avoid infection.
If the former brothers also have these things, I'm afraid many of them can be saved, every time I think of this, the gang leader can't help but cry silently.
What he enjoys today is something they could never have imagined.
It is said that the Turks are about to ask for supplies from the imperial court again, and this time they are expected to be able to see the convoy in its entirety and escort it.
The garrison had quietly told them that when the time came for these supplies to cross the border, they would quietly intercept a little bit so that everyone could taste the taste of the potatoes, which made the captain very eager and eager.
The Xiaoqi adults from Chang'an have already gone back, and at this time they already know the importance of these few remaining materials, and the garrison swore that they would never abuse it, so they let the other party leave completely.
In the face of the danger that may be encountered next, the gang leader is full of confidence, as long as he is not killed by the Turks of the dog day on the spot, with these two treasures, oh yes, and the painkiller, he has confidence.
When he went back, he must tell his brothers what happened in the past few days, and his heart was very excited.
In the princess's mansion, Jiujiang and Luling are playing against each other.
Now Chang'an City is full of wind and rain, and there are things about the first Chang'an Cup everywhere, as if it has become the most important thing overnight.
Everyone is gearing up, and after this period of understanding, people know that the owner of the club, Lord Chen, has a very heavy reward for what he has promoted, and he is not stingy to take out all kinds of materials.
If this can win the appreciation of Master Chen in the chess arena, and can give him a reward, who knows what can be rewarded except for great honor?
If you can get one...... Alas, this probability is too small, no one dares to think about it, and can only secretly guess whether there is any hope for the first place in the Chang'an Cup this time, or whether the top two or three places are hopeful.
Wealthy businessmen and gentry, dignitaries, and even the princesses in the palace were all playing games for a while.
The carpenters' business in the city is booming again, and the business earned in the past two days is probably more than a month or two above theirs.
Because the people who come to build chess don't care about the price at all, they just want to hurry up and hurry up!
The carpenters are very grateful to Master Chen, some of whom are quick-witted, and have even moved to Luoyang, Jiankang and other big cities, once chess is also popular there, they can make a lot of money.
"Sister, you're distracted."
Luling was a general, and at this time, the veteran of Jiujiang was locked by the two horses, and she had no way out for a while.
"Alas, I threw in the towel." Jiujiang pushed the chessboard and stood in front of the window to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside.
She is slim, tall and slender, with a slender waist and slender legs, compared to Tang women, she has a figure that most of them cannot envy.
"I really want to participate in this competition, but I'm worried about being recognized."
Princess Jiujiang said with some distress that such a prosperous world is unprecedented, and no one wants to play a game at this feast to see what their level is, and at the same time enjoy the glory of being praised and cheered.
"We can't." Lu Ling shook his head, he really didn't know how long the identities of the two of them would be hidden.
They used to think it didn't matter, but now they gradually found that Chen Chu had a slight affection for them, which made both of them more or less nervous and worried for a while.
Once he wanted to know more about the identities of the two, such as wanting to come to the door as a guest or something, how could they hide it.
And the current Chen Club is actually very dangerous, where there are those who dare not reveal their identities, as well as those who have official identities, such as General Li Jing, and his father.
In this chaotic situation, I am very afraid of who will suddenly shout out the fastest identity one day, after all, General Li Jing and they are not familiar with Chen Chu and them, even if they show familiarity and intimacy with them, they may be discovered if they are not careful.
Therefore, they are very cautious when they go to the club now, either to make sure that Chen Chu is not in the club, or they are staggered with their father and the others to avoid a group of people from getting together.
"Why don't we move over, the three-entry house can be reluctantly lived, there is nothing in the princess's mansion and I won't come back for the time being, so it's good to change the mood for a change of environment."
Jiujiang's heart moved slightly: "We can disguise ourselves as real ordinary folk girls and live some free and easy lives, if we are really afraid of too many people, we will put on masks and let our guards also change into the clothes of ordinary people to care for their homes, what do you think?" ”
"Listen to my sister." Lu Ling nodded, Jiujiang has always been the one who has always had ideas between the two, and she has never had any opinions.
"Okay, let's put on a mask and go to the chess tournament this time to see if we can make it to the end!"
When night fell, Chen Chu sat in front of the window, looking at the solar panels that had been working outside for a day, and his heart was itchy, and now the conditions for installing light bulbs were ripe, but he didn't know when it could be triggered.
"My lord, Master Cui Zhengyuan of the Cui family asked someone to ask, are there any special rules and arrangements for the chess competition?"
An Yijia walked over, I don't know what's wrong with adults today, I always like to sit in front of the window and look at that strange thing outside.
"Special rules and arrangements?"
Chen Chu wondered, is this trying to go through the back door or install people, nonsense, just play chess, wouldn't it be good to be selected from the audition round by round.
However, he also knows that when the time comes, the scale of the chess competition will be huge, and some people will indeed not be suitable for playing chess with so many people, or because of their gender or identity, they will probably still need some direct channels.
"Forget it, let's go back and set up 100 special places to avoid the chaos of the first two rounds of auditions."
An Yijia nodded, indicating that she understood, and was about to leave when she was pulled by Chen Chu's arm.
"What are you doing?" Her face was slightly red, this was his room, lonely in the dead of night.
"Don't you want a lamp that can light up the whole room, I think it won't be long before your expectations come true." Chen Chu said.
He wanted to tell An Yijia about the "electricity" thing later, and give her a preventive shot, so that no one would know about these things in the house in the future, and An Yijia and they could also help protect the line or something by the way after they were familiar with it.
However, An Yijia had a little misunderstanding, she thought that this was an adult who had listened to her ideals and specially planned to help her develop it.
Otherwise, adults are usually so busy, tinkering with this and that, how can they just tinker with what she wants?
"Your Excellency." An Yijia said softly in a voice, standing in front of Chen Chu and lowering her head to look at him.
Chen Chu also felt a little inexplicable, why did Sister Yijia suddenly become gentle.
