"Brother said he dared to live?" Speaking of the white elephant, a few rare smiles finally appeared on the little face of forgetting the sorrow, and he said with some pride: "There are thousands of elephants in our south, but only my family dares to live in the sacred white elephant, the king of elephants, although Mang Yinglong calls himself the king of white elephants, there is no white elephant under his hands." Don't look at the young age who dares to live now, but it will be amazing when you grow up in the future! Since I was a child, my father gave me the dare to live, and he played with me, squirting water with his nose, and ...... hee"

Forget the sorrow and indulge in happy memories, daddy, mom and brother and sister, as well as the sweet memory of the white elephant daring to live in company, so that the corners of the little girl's mouth are slightly upturned, and her eyes are bent into crescents.

Although the hatred of the country and the family made her understand the cold state of the world early, after all, she was just a child less than ten years old, and when she mentioned her beloved white elephant, she spoke by herself, but she didn't actually answer Qin Lin's question.

But who could bear to interrupt her fond memories? Meng Yang's family is loyal, and her parents, brothers and sisters who forget their worries have all died heroically, if she can always be as happy as in her memories, whether it is Qin Lin, Xu Xinyi or Xu Tingfu, they are willing to sit here with her indefinitely...... It's a pity that memories are just memories after all, and the good memories are finally replaced by cruel reality, and the thoughts and worries are deflated, and the tears are only swirling in the eyes: "Later, later, my family failed in the bloody battle, and I dared to live and was also caught by the thief Mang Yinglong, hum, it is just a baby elephant that has not grown up, if it is three years older, where can Mang Yinglong's war elephant beat it?" You will be able to escape with me...... It's—it's a war elephant! ”

War elephants? Qin Lin was taken aback, he originally saw that the body of the white elephant was about the same size as other elephants, and he thought it was an adult elephant, but he didn't expect it to be a young baby elephant.

Oh, the baby elephant is so big, it must be very powerful and majestic when it becomes an adult in the future!

Qin Lin also asked the warrior and the nanny Ah Nang, and learned that the white elephant was indeed a sacred relic on the Indochina Peninsula, and the white elephant that the Si family accidentally obtained in the forest was the only one in the Tusi of various countries in recent years.

It is not only precious, but also indeed the natural king of elephants, loyal to its owner and never betrayed, gentle enough to be used as a child's playmate, and as an adult war elephant and infinitely powerful, charging into battle invincible, no other war elephant is its opponent.

Because of this, Mang Yinglong, the king of the Taungoo Dynasty of Burma, called himself the "White Elephant King", which is similar to the "True Dragon Son of Heaven" of the Central Plains Emperor.

Elephants can live for hundreds of years, they need to be in their teens to reach adulthood, and they only reach the peak of their size and strength at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and the white elephant of Sijia is the same year as Si Wang, and he was just nine years old when he fought with Mang Yinglong last year, but he was only a juvenile elephant with insufficient physical strength, so he was captured by the enemy.

"Since it's a war elephant, how do you command it to fight?" Qin Lin threw out the question of the key surname.

Si Wangwu blinked: "Of course it's the sound of the drum, just like the army of the Celestial Empire, the drum advances and retreats, oh yes, Mang Yinglong They are blowing elephant whistles." Elephant ears are big, hearing, and very smart, I dare to live and say anything, it can understand it! ”

If it is the drum in and the gold retreats, it will be no different from the mahout bell to command the elephant, Qin Lin recalled the situation when the white elephant dared to stop and go crazy, and it was certain that absolutely no one had struck the bronze bell at that time, but in the end, Wen Desheng rang the bronze bell, and he gradually calmed down when he dared to stay.

Touching his nose, Qin Lin thought for a while: "So, what about the elephant whistle?" ”

"Back to the eldest master, there happens to be one of the smaller ones here," the samurai took out the elephant whistle from his baggage, explaining that it was actually a musical instrument commonly used by the local natives.

The elephant whistle was a black bamboo pipe with holes in it, and the evil loyalist blew it at Qin Lin's behest, making a sharp and piercing whistle.

Qin Lin frowned, the sound he heard at the beginning felt very muffled and low, mixed with many noisy sounds, it was not obvious, so most of the elephant slaves and soldiers in the elephant taming institute did not notice, it was definitely not this kind of sharp and harsh sound.

was thinking carefully, the sound of horses' hooves on the street interrupted Qin Lin's thoughts, and Hong Yangshan, who was on duty in Nanya on his behalf, ran up with a captain in brocade clothes and sweating profusely: "Chief Qin, I finally found you old, Governor Liu can't find you for something, and he is angry in the White Tiger Hall!" ”

Qin Lin drank tea unhurriedly: "Let him get angry, the yang energy will rise in the spring, Liu Dudu's yin and yang will be out of balance, if the liver qi is stagnant, then the liver and spleen will not be good." ”

Xu Xinyi chuckled, grinning and laughing.

Xu Tingfu couldn't help but smile, feeling that this little aunt was really a wonderful person, Liu Shouyou was conceited and scheming, but unfortunately met our Xu family's aunt, I am afraid that I can only cry out in vain.

Qin Lin sent Xu Tingfu away unhurriedly, and asked Xu Xinyi to settle the three of them in his mansion, in case a group of people in Mang Yingli retaliated against her, and then slowly shook towards the Jinyi Guard's yamen.

"Our chief is really calm!" Diao Shigui and Hua Deguan sighed in admiration.

"Change your slippery surname, and follow the chief," Hong Yangshan smiled, "Maybe when, if you want to be commanded by a thousand households, then you can't say it." ”

Hearing this, the hearts of the two old slippery heads pounded, and there was a little more eagerness in their eyes, and the oily color of the hanger Langdang decreased a lot.

In the Jinyi Wei White Tiger Hall, the prince of the left capital governor is in charge of the Jinyi guard, Liu Shouyou, the master of Liu, who is facing a group of Jinyi Hall officials under him: "Qin someone is becoming more and more rude, taking his family members to the elephant training center without authorization, and causing death, as if he was nothing!" This went to the same hall to beat the Burmese tribute envoy, if he cut off the tribute and provoked border troubles, see how he will explain? ”

The officials of the Jinyi Hall were silent, and Wen Desheng, who was in charge of the elephant training institute, was even more red and blue, and when he heard Liu Dudu's meaning, he blamed Qin Lin more than himself, he breathed a sigh of relief, wanted to shirk the responsibility a little, and said stubbornly:

Liu Dudu was angry. The white elephant that Burmese paid tribute was honest, but somehow it suddenly went berserk, which was really unexpected. And looking at the situation at that time, it seems that the old man of Xiangnuhua sensed that something was wrong and intended to report it to Chief Qin, but suddenly he was attacked by the murderer and used the elephant to kill people and kill people......"

"Nonsense!" Liu Shouyou flicked the sleeves of his robe and said sharply: "The white elephant is an auspicious tribute from Myanmar, after all, it is just a brute, how can he kill people when he obeys people's orders?" It's clear that you and Qin are shirking their responsibilities! And even if the beast is in trouble, it is no wonder that the Burmese tribute envoy is wrong, why did someone in Qin go to beat the tribute envoy? ”

Wen Desheng was so frightened that he shuddered all over, closed his mouth and didn't dare to open his mouth again.

Suddenly, someone outside the White Tiger Hall said lazily: "Liu Dudu, the yang energy is rising in spring, if the yin deficiency fire is prosperous, you can't move the nameless fire!" It is important to know that if the liver is lost and discharged, the qi will turn into fire, the head will be swollen and painful, drowsy and hot, the head tendons will protrude, the eyes will be yellow and red, the mouth will be dry and bitter, and even the ears will be deaf, which is really not conducive to the way of health preservation. ”

Qin Lin said as Shi Shiran walked into the White Tiger Hall.

Hearing his words, the officials of Jinyi Hall couldn't help but look at Liu Shouyou, now this Jinyi Governor has blue tendons on his forehead, and his eyes are red, isn't it what Qin Lin said, "The head tendons are protruding, and the eyes are yellow and red"? The officials almost laughed in their hearts, and they didn't dare to laugh in front of Liu Shouyou, and they endured it until their stomachs hurt one by one.

"Ouch is not good, don't blame Liu Dudu, the lower official is old and has diarrhea, retire first!" A white-haired old conductor ran out with his stomach in his hands, and before he could cross the threshold, he saw his shoulders shrugging and obviously laughing wildly.

Liu Shouyou's face twitched the muscles one by one, but he couldn't have a seizure, the commander Tongzhi was old, his qualifications were very old, and he knew that he was hopeless and was waiting to get old, could it be that you were the governor of brocade clothes, and you weren't even allowed to have diarrhea among the old people?

Looking at Qin Lin coldly, Liu Shou smiled and didn't smile: "General Qin is proficient in medicine, no wonder he has no fear, if he makes a mess and is dismissed, even if he is a bell doctor and walks the streets, he can support his family, haha!" ”

Qin Lin pretended not to understand Liu Shouyou's ridicule, and said very sincerely: "If there is really that day, if Liu Dudu has any liver fire or phlegm disease, the lower officials will definitely come to treat you and talk about our subordinates' hearts." ”

Okay, this is also a snake with a stick, Liu Shouyou couldn't cry or laugh, and said I don't dare to take your medicine, don't prescribe a prescription to poison me, it's okay!

"Don't talk about it," Liu Shouyou's face turned grim, "Qin Lin, it's okay to mess around by yourself, how noble that identity is, why are you so bold and take her to ride an elephant without permission?" If you get into trouble, don't get into trouble! ”

Qin Lin's heart sank, and he knew that he could hide the matter of taking Zhu Yaoyuan out of the palace from others, but he couldn't hide it from Liu Shouyou and Feng Bao, the spy leaders.

However, he also had no fear, and said with a smile: "Liu Dudu is now outside, the elephant is originally a thing of the imperial court, it doesn't hurt to take a look, even if it comes to the Empress Dowager Li, it's a big deal that the official is cheeky and reprimanded, and it won't even affect Feng Dugong and Liu Dudu." ”

Something like the princess leaving the palace without permission, it is big to say that it is small, but with Empress Dowager Li's faint guilt towards Zhu Yaoyuan, Xu Xinyi is a relative of her mother's family, and it is estimated that Empress Dowager Li will not be too harsh.

However, Feng Bao, the chief administrator of the palace, who is responsible for managing the palace ban, and Liu Shouyou, the governor of Jinyi, who is in charge of security and guards, have to bear greater responsibility, and the queen mother is really to blame, and their moldy heads are even bigger than Qin Lin.

So Liu Shouyou heard Qin Lin's words, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice, Qin Lin's words obviously said that I was unlucky to kick me, and you and Feng Bao were no better.

"Let's go, the governor of Pontus won't talk nonsense with you, during the Hajj pilgrimage to Burma after the third day, if something goes wrong, hum, you can watch it!"

Liu Shouyou pretended to be angry, threw his sleeves with a straight face, his face was sallow, his eyes were protruding, and he really had a bit of a sign of liver and spleen.

There's no way, when you meet Qin Lin, a guy who can't be smashed, knocked or shaken off, can Liu Dudu not get angry?
