Chapter 184: Prince Shotoku (5)
"Because of the height, remember to deliver the national credentials.
But don't forget to record and collect all the news in the Sui Kingdom. Also, there are some things that you have to bring back. ”
He had already handed over the letter to Ono Tomitomi Indaka, or the stable of Ono's sister, and took out another half of an air-dried bamboo board with some words engraved on it.
Above are some of the materials that the stable owner intends to bring back from Huaxia, Huo Qing'e found that the medicinal materials and famous products she brought were still too few, but she needed to look at them by herself, so she deliberately asked the prince to send someone to Huaxia to collect these materials.
"Yes, Prince."
After a slight glance, Onochen found that they were all precious medicinal materials, some of which he had never even heard of.
But this did not hinder his mission, and the prince also sent a special team to follow him, and they brought a lot of gold with them in case of emergency.
"I have already told the king about this, so you don't have to be afraid of the court's criticism.
It's just that you should be more careful on the road, and if you are in distress, you should mainly protect yourself.
You can throw away the national letter, but make sure that the items on the bamboo board can be brought back. ”
"Understood."
He bowed deeply, and the prince waved his hand, letting the man standing in the doorway in.
"His Royal Highness the Prince."
It was Qin Hesheng, and the black tattoo on the left side of his face was still abruptly exposed on that beauty's face.
"Qin Hesheng, this is Ono Chen's Yingao, as for Yingao, you should know her."
She nodded, and without speaking, Ha Sheng walked over to Ingao's side, then sat down, and looked at the stables above the main seat.
"Ha Sheng will send her retainers and clansmen to accompany you, and they will be responsible for your security after that......
As for the monsters and the like, I will send someone else with you, but it is best to avoid the monsters, and we don't know the specific matters of the Sui Kingdom. ”
As she spoke, a servant hurried into the ear of the prince of the stable, and after whispering a few words, her expression changed slightly, and then sent him away.
"Lord Prince?"
"Otomo Wakaya died in Kyushu."
The two people below were silent, Ono Chen was not very familiar with him, and he was only limited to the image of a great exorcist, so he was a little sad, and the power of the monster was a little stronger.
But Ha Sheng was not, as a businessman and chancellor of the exchequer, she had heard a lot about this man, and she was a little incredulous about his death.
It stands to reason that his power is strong enough, how could he be planted in this place in Kyushu?
"It looks like something is inevitable......"
"What to avoid?"
Just as she was saying something, she was interrupted by a female voice in the corner of the room. Ellie had just stepped out of the gap over there, and was just as she stood firm to retract the gap when all three of them turned their eyes to that side at the same time.
"Where did the little ones come from?"
After Xiao Yechen saw Erli, he blurted out, but Qin Hesheng stared at the other party, but turned his head and asked the prince carefully.
“…… Is it an acquaintance of the crown prince?
The servant did not think that children could move around at will. ”
"It's an acquaintance."
Faintly seeing the cloth and blood stains in the other party's clothes, the stable owner couldn't help but be a little worried, and just as he was about to let the two leave, he stopped his movements again.
"Come and talk, beware of the ears on the wall."
The two of them didn't say much, and followed the prince to the palace, but Erli herself walked side by side with the prince, and casually asked about the recent situation.
"Who's that......"
“…… I have not heard of it from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
A little surprised the two, but after only a few words of exchange, the four of them went to a hidden room, and after the stable had recited a few incantations, another door appeared out of thin air, and stood in the corner of the room.
Pushing open the door, it was a little dark inside, but with a slight wave of the stableman's hand, the candle that had been extinguished in the house was lit again.
There was no decoration in the room, except for a few silk books and bamboo books, just a simple case and a straw mat barely covered the floor.
"Lord Prince?"
Qin Hesheng closed the hidden door, and from the outside, the door suddenly merged into the wall and disappeared completely.
"Sister Ellie, how are you?"
"It's okay...... After all, if Otomo's family dies, our side also needs to grab the sphere of influence. ”
"Thou art ...... Did the prince mention the immortals before? ”
After listening to the conversation between the two, Ha Sheng frowned, not at all like looking at a child, but staring at each other as if he had seen an enemy.
“…… Stables? ”
The stableman shook his head, not daring to tell them this, so Ellie replied as he had been told.
"Sort of."
“…… There is no problem with the servant. ”
After taking another deep look at the other party, Ha Sheng turned his head to the stable and said to his prince.
……
……
……
"Drink!"
A thin bolt of lightning struck the ceramic pot, turning it into pieces.
The sword, which has only been trained for a month, has been able to control his power against thunder and lightning at will since ancient times.
"Worthy of being my daughter!"
Even Budu himself had to admit that the other party's talent on top of this strength, and the small tricks he learned were not at the same level in terms of the other party's performance.
"Who is related to you ....."
After lowering her arm, she muttered something.
The more he learned about the Prince, the more he found himself feeling more and more sorry for this "mother": her body had become devastated because of the Prince's quest for immortality......
She married to Su Wu's family, but she also had to kill her eldest brother, and the enemy who killed her eldest brother was also one of the prince's favorite ministers - Qin Hesheng.
The feelings that the knife has had for her since ancient times......... It's hard to say, in terms of the feeling of being a woman, she just thinks that Budu is just a poor person, which is why she is close to the other party.
A stepmother who can't have children, almost watched herself grow up since she was a child, but cares about everything.
It's just that...... When Budu is in private, he is more like a child. When he is casual, he doesn't feel like an old man or an elder at all, and even now there are times when he feels like he has become a mother.
I can't tell why...... Maybe it's because she's too close to the Prince, or because she doesn't care about herself at all, or maybe it's ...... It's just prejudice when I was a child: when Budu appeared, his biological mother had already died.
The knife has always maintained a sense of distance from her since ancient times, but ......
"Lord Budu and the sword have been in the sky since ancient times...... Can you please keep your voice quiet..."
Huo Qing'e, who was a little disheveled, opened her door, and it seemed that she had only been asleep for a short time, but she was woken up by these two people.
“… If you are going to strengthen the relationship between mother and daughter...... Why don't you help me take a look at the herbs in the stove? ”
"Thank you! Qing'e Niangniang! ”
Without waiting for the knife to reply, Bu Du grabbed the other party's hand and ran to the alchemy shop on the side.
“……”
Qing'e looked at the backs of the two, paused slightly, and closed her door again.
