Chapter 320: The Great Use of Puppies

Just now the front row was shooting, and the back row was waiting.

Now the front row retreats to the rear row to reload, and the back row becomes the front row to shoot.

And so on and so forth.

Wang Baobao was wrong, and there was no room for him to grab the gun.

The leader hurriedly knelt down: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." I give up! Don't shoot. ”

Lan Yu waved his hand again: "Stop." ”

Soldiers came up and searched the body to confirm that the leader had no weapons on him.

Lan Yu sighed: "Since you sincerely surrendered, what are you shouting nonsense?" A few more people died in vain. ”

The leader cried and said, "It's not me who shouted, it's him." ”

He turned his head and pointed at Wang Baobao, only to find that Wang Baobao had turned around and galloped out of the city gate, and then jumped on the horse outside the city and walked away.

Lan Yu pointed to Wang Baobao's back and asked the leader, "Who is that fool?" ”

The leader sobbed: "Wang Baobao." ”

Lan Yu sighed: ", tsk, run so fast!" ”

Mu Ying frowned: "This run, I don't know when I will catch him." ”

-----

After such a fuss, the tribes of the West did not dare to come out to fight.

Zhu Bai asked someone to bring two and a half large sheepdogs to Lan Yu and them.

Then the blue jade they are not in a hurry, they are consumed.

Zhu Bai confessed to the official tooth bureau to catch salt and tea to death.

Lan Yu and Mu Ying demanded that the guards at the border pass and the people in the city all receive salt according to their heads.

Whoever dares to take more than one person, secretly conceals and sells it, will be punished according to the crime of rebellion.

All carriages were not allowed to leave the customs, and those entering and exiting the customs were strictly searched.

Although it is still a puppy, it has a very good sense of smell, and as long as the officers and soldiers lead it and smell the people who leave the customs and the things they take, they will know whether the other party has salt and tea. The salt is fine, and the pan can be dried by itself from the lake.

But tea can't do it.

And the tea is fragrant, and Lan Yu's dog looks different from other dogs, like a wolf, and the nose is very smart.

A small packet of tea leaves hidden in a large bag of rice can still be smelled by dogs.

Lan Yu caught three or four people who smuggled tea and sentenced them to death, and no one dared to smuggle tea again.

There was no tea at all, and the tribes complained bitterly.

------

Queen Ma said that she hadn't slept well recently, and asked Concubine Li Shufei to find some agarwood from the treasury.

As a result, Concubine Li personally led people to rummage for a long time, but only found some fragments of loose incense.

The eunuch in charge of the treasury said that the agarwood ran out last year, and in previous years, the city would pay tribute to the agarwood, and I don't know why it has not been delivered this year.

Concubine Hu Shun heard about it and told Zhu Bai.

Zhu Bai told the tooth chief that if someone sells it in the official dental bureau, he will buy it no matter how much money it is.

This day, the tooth chief came up and said, "Your Highness, there is a person who has taken the best Hoi An agarwood to sell." ”

Zhu Bai didn't know why, and asked the tooth chief: "What is the importance of Hui'an agarwood?" ”

Ya Chang said: "Hoi An agarwood is a special product of Champa, in the past, only the palace and the emperor's relatives could afford to use it, and the people rarely saw it. ”

Zhu Bai: "Where is the city?" ”

The tooth chief unfolded the map and pointed to one place: "Probably here." ”

Zhu Bai suddenly realized: Oh, it's central Vietnam.

He asked, "Well, buy it." ”

The tooth chief said, "It's here." He said that it was only sold to the owner of the official tooth bureau. ”

Zhu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly: "Bring him up." ”

The man who sold agarwood was short, sturdy and dark, with a flat nose and a round face, and had the usual appearance of Lingnan people.

He speaks Yingtianguan dialect, and he doesn't look much different from the Han people, but his accent is a little awkward.

Zhu Bai suddenly realized that this person was a Champa man.

There is no agarwood in Zhancheng to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, but there is a spot to sell it at the official tooth bureau, if it is not to be fat enough to find death, there is another hidden situation.

Zhu Bai remained silent, and asked with a smile: "I want your agarwood, but the price is a bit expensive, can it be cheaper." ”

The man said, "If it is the owner of the official tooth bureau, the price is easy to say." If it is someone else, it will be interviewed. ”

Ya Chang hurriedly said: "Don't be rude, this is His Royal Highness King Xiang, the owner of the Guanya Bureau." ”

The man hurriedly knelt down: "Your Highness atons for your sins, the little one has eyes and no beads, and he doesn't recognize His Highness." ”

Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "You are the messenger of the city." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Weichen is the messenger of Zhancheng." People say that His Highness is extremely intelligent, and it is true. His Royal Highness actually saw the identity of Wei Chen at a glance. ”

Zhu Bai: "What grievances do you have when you see this king in this way?" ”

The messenger said: "Wechen has been in the capital for a month, and he has also reported to the Ministry of Rites, but he has not had the opportunity to see the emperor for a long time. Is it the king of Weichen who angered the emperor. Weichen was afraid that he would not reach the Son of Heaven, so he didn't dare to wait any longer. I heard that this official tooth bureau is the emperor's property, so he stole a part of the agarwood, and sold the agarwood by coming to the official tooth bureau to report the matter to His Royal Highness. ”

Zhu Bai frowned: "No." My father and emperor were still talking about it yesterday, saying why your country has not come so late this year. ”

The messenger breathed a sigh of relief: "In this way, Weichen is relieved." ”

What do Hu Weiyong and Wang Guangyang want to do?

Agarwood is a small matter, if it causes the two countries to have bad relations and the border is unstable, it will be troublesome.

Zhu Bai sighed lightly: "Your seal can be on your body." ”

Lao Zhu gave the tooth plates of the monarchs of each vassal country to facilitate the envoys to prove their identities.

Messenger: "Yes, yes." ”

Zhu Bai: "Now, you will enter the palace with this king and explain this matter to my father and emperor in person." ”

-----

Lao Zhu was so angry that he trembled when he heard the envoy of Zhancheng talk about it.

Zhu Biao also gritted his teeth and said: "Now the Ministry of Books and the Ministry of Rites are really getting more and more unrepresented. ”

Lao Zhu took a deep breath, did not have a seizure on the spot, only appeased the messenger a few words, and then let him go back.

Zhu Bai and Zhu Biao exchanged surprised looks.

The next morning, Lao Zhu's face was as usual, and after listening to the hundreds of officials report the major events one by one, he asked Wang Guangyang: "Lord Wang, do you have something to report." ”

Zhu Bai suddenly realized that Lao Zhu originally planned to give Wang Guangyang another chance to defend himself.

Wang Guangyang hurriedly lined up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Weichen has nothing important to do for the time being." ”

Ever since he returned to the court, the bastard has been silent like a dead man all day.

I thought he was cautious, but now I know that he really has nothing to do, because he doesn't care about anything.

Lao Zhu was rarely merciful, and gave him another chance, but he didn't even take it.

Sure enough, people don't save themselves, and heaven doesn't save them.

Zhu Bai sighed secretly.

Lao Zhu sneered at Zhu Bai: "You have nothing to do, but we have something to ask you." ”

He beckoned to the side.

A man walked out of the line and came to the front.

Lao Zhu raised his chin to the man and asked Wang Guangyang, "Does Lord Wang know this person?" ”

Wang Guangyang glanced at the man, his face changed slightly, but he said, "Weichen doesn't know." ”

Lao Zhu asked Hu Weiyong: "Master Hu can be recognized." ”

Hu Weiyong hesitated for a long time and replied, "I don't know Weichen. ”

Lao Zhu asked the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and said, "What about you?" ”

The Ministry of Rites wiped his sweat: "This is the envoy of the Champa State." A month before the tribute. ”

Lao Zhu gritted his teeth: "He's been here for a month, why don't you report it to us." ”
