Chinese dining table

Di Renjie looked at the small trebuchet in front of him, puzzled.

Compared with the trebuchet that Yunchu built in Liaodong back then, except for its small size and lack of counterweights, which required manpower to pull it, there was not much difference.

It was shocking that a dozen people could accurately throw a ten-jin stone to Yun's house two hundred steps away by pulling the rope.

The trebuchet is a top-secret national weapon in the army, and there is absolutely no reason for it to be left outside for people to make and use at will.

Even though this trebuchet was not as powerful as the siege weapon made by Yunchu in Liaodong, and there were too many manpower needed, it was already very close to the trebuchet in the Datang Army in appearance.

Hearing the din of people outside, Di Renjie took Yin Erhu and the others out of the yard where the trebuchet was placed, and continued to pursue those big cannibals.

If Li Hong had a big scene where he could perform well, they would have to hide in the dark and leave some clues for the prince to follow. This matter was more troublesome than catching those big cannibals.

The emperor and empress are not in Chang'an City, and the prince is the biggest in this city!
When big people deal with small things, it is often the lion fighting the rabbit with all their strength.

Therefore, the gates of Chang'an City were immediately closed, followed by one hundred and eight cities, including the imperial city, and the palace city, followed by Jinwu Guards, soldiers and horses of the left and right guards all went to the streets .

Countless bad guys, the police, led these soldiers and horses to start searching from house to house.

The reason why the scene was so big was because Li Hong claimed that he had been assassinated!Or an assassination with a trebuchet!
Li Yifu, Xu Jingzong, and Xin Maojiang were frightened out of their wits after hearing the news.

Xu Jingzong, who had always stayed at home watching prostitutes ride horses, jumped up from the slump, tore off a naked prostitute, jumped on a horse, and ran frantically to Jinchangfang before he could put on his shoes.

Once the crown prince is assassinated, no matter whether he is Wu Mei's confidant or not, he will be cut to pieces by the furious emperor and empress.

In Jinchang Fang, I saw the prince standing in front of a table in good condition, pointing his finger at the Chang'an floor plan on the table, and pointing at a group of armored generals, looking very angry.

Seeing that the prince was safe and sound, Xu Jingzong felt his limbs were weak, and he sat softly on the threshold, cupped his hands and said to the prince, "Please return to the palace quickly, the prince."

When Li Hong saw Xu Jingzong, he stepped forward to help him up, and said solemnly, "The big cannibal is plotting to assassinate orphans."

Xu Jingzong's tense face immediately relaxed when he heard the words, and said a little confused, "Is it just a cannibal?"

Li Hong nodded and said, "It's the big cannibal, and now they are searching the whole city for the big cannibal, and they have also found the sharp weapon they used to assassinate me - the trebuchet!"

"Tabuchet?" Xu Jingzong's emotions that had calmed down just now rose again, causing his voice to break.

What is the trebuchet and how important it is, how could Xu Jingzong, the prime minister, not know.

At this moment, Changsun Wuji, Li Ji, Su Dingfang... the faces of people who could use a trebuchet slipped past his eyes one by one.

After the gunpowder has been dispersed, if the trebuchet is also dispersed, then even if he hides at home and is protected by layers of trilogy, he is definitely not safe.

If gunpowder is used in conjunction with the trebuchet...Xu Jingzong didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Thinking of this, Xu Jingzong coughed, cleared his throat, and said to General Jin Wuwei, "Since it is confirmed that the big cannibals did it, then we must arrest all the big cannibals in Chang'an City before sunset."

Don't look at those generals who are surrounded in front of Li Hong and obediently serve them, but Li Hong wants to drive them to do things, but it is impossible. The emperor and empress are not there, and there are only a few prime ministers who can use the defensive forces in the city.

The generals left in a hurry to go to work, and Li Yifu and Xin Mao came here in a hurry.

After Yu Xiurong personally served the crown prince and prime minister the tea, he withdrew obediently.

Li Hong took a sip of tea, sat in the middle seat with a big horse, and said to the three prime ministers, "I just want to repair the East Palace, and I want to get some money for Yunchu to help me with a small business, both of you." Grand Tutor, there is Xin Xiang who wants to help Gu.”

Li Yifu, the human cat, immediately laughed and said, "It turns out that the plot to assassinate the prince is not true, but is it true that the prince wants to get some money?"

"That's it, it's very simple"

Li Hong shook his head and said, "The matter of assassinating Gu is true, and it is true that Gu wants to get money from big cannibals. It's just that they plan to assassinate Gu first, and Gu want to get money after. They must not be confused."

At this time, Xin Maojiang finally understood the scene and laughed, "The big cannibals in Chang'an City are only a thousand people, even if they are deprived of their money, they don't have much money, and they can't support the big scene of His Royal Highness.

If His Royal Highness needs some money urgently, a certain family will introduce a few merchants to His Royal Highness. Although they don’t get much money, they still have [-] to [-] yuan a year. "

Li Hong looked at Xin Mao with dissatisfaction and said, "What do you want to do with the money of the people of the Tang Dynasty?" "

Depriving them of money is the biggest joke for the lonely family.

If the big cannibals didn't want to assassinate Gu's family this time, Gu would not attack them, this is what they asked for."

Li Yifu looked at Li Hongdao with a smile on his face, "Your Highness is wise, it is preordained to have a drink and a peck. Since it is a big cannibal who plots to assassinate His Highness, then the big cannibal must bear the corresponding price and accept the corresponding punishment."
I think that His Highness will definitely get his wish.”

Li Hong patted the table with his small hands and said, "Okay, things like money can't be put on the table, it's because of the presence of two grand masters that Gu didn't hide his thoughts."

That's it for this matter, the next thing about the trebuchet is what will cause headaches for the three of you, if this matter is not handled properly, the emperor will definitely not be able to justify it."

Speaking of trebuchets.

Whether it was Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu, or General Xin Mao, the joking smiles on the faces of the three disappeared.

This is a real big problem.

"Where is Yunchu?" Li Yifu asked the prince's followers.

The subordinate replied, "I'm locked up outside the city... I won't be able to come back for a while."

"Where's the trebuchet?"

"It has been sent to the Jinwu Guard camp, and outsiders have never seen it."

"But the standard ordnance in my Tang army?"

"Returning to Li Xiang, there are many differences from the trebuchets in our army, and they are not like the ordnance in our army."

Li Yifu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the subordinate's answer, and said to Xu Jingzong and General Xin Mao, "This place still needs two coordinating princes, the old man will go to the Jinwu Guards' camp in person to see the difference between the two trebuchets." We will make a conclusion later." Your Highness, do you think it is feasible? "

Li Hong waved his hands and said, "Even though the grand master is busy, it's better to come to a conclusion before my father finds out. It's better that the trebuchet didn't come out of the army, otherwise it will definitely be a situation where people's heads are rolling."

Li Yifu saluted and said, "The old minister knows"

Li Hong said again, "Once the thief is caught, he will also be handed over to the Taifu, so that people will not think that this is a dirty thing done by a lonely family."

Li Yifu looked at Prince Li Hongdao with relief, "I thought His Highness would not take this into consideration, but I didn't expect His Highness to care about it for a long time, so this matter can be handled cleanly, and no one will chew their tongues."

The trebuchet was thrown from Tongshanfang next to Jinchangfang, and it was erected on the roof of a family. Afterwards, these people wanted to destroy the trebuchet, but because Li Hong searched too quickly, they took the trebuchet from With the roof down, one had to flee quickly.

Tongshanfang is only one Tongjifang away from Qixiamen, and the two ways are connected by a road. When these big cannibals evacuated from Tongshanfang and passed Tongjifang, they were seen by many people because of their appearance.

There were so many barbarians in Chang'an City, the common people didn't feel surprised, it was only when the gates of the square city were closed and bad guys started searching, people woke up, it was those damn big cannibals who had done bad things and came forward to identify them one after another.

It wasn't until the unscrupulous people followed the direction identified by the common people to Qixia Gate that they discovered that these people had already escaped from Chang'an City.

Therefore, the general of the Jinwu Guard called to open the city gate and led an army to chase them all the way. They firmly believed that even if a group of aliens with strange appearance escaped from the city, they would not be able to hide for long.

A high-ranking person must be a participant and a requester in every event related to himself, otherwise, others will respond for you, which is a great shame for a high-ranking person.

Just like the position on the dining table, you can choose not to eat, but you must have your own position and tableware. Li Hong is now the prince, and he has the right to sit on any table.

So, this time, Li Hong chose to ask for money, just like he chose braised pork on the table. Although there are more exquisite meals on it, he is still willing to eat braised pork. This is his personal choice.

Di Renjie not only needs to track down those big cannibals, but also needs to make up the traces that these big cannibals have erased. What if the people in the East Palace can't find them?
The big cannibals don't have horses, but they run as fast as camels, and they can reach ten miles away in a short time.

After Di Renjie saw a cloud of smoke and dust behind him, he led Yin Erhu and the others into a bamboo forest. After passing through the bamboo forest, he prepared to drink some wine and rest in a small roadside shop.

A group of golden cavalry roared past the entrance of the small shop. The general at the head was dressed in bright armor and held a lance. He looked like a fierce general.

These people are all part of the team of Prince Liu led by Li Hongsheng who lived frugally. Some of them came from the Western Regions are really powerful, while others were selected by Li Zhi for his son from the royal family and the children of aristocratic families. This person is obviously either a child of the royal family or a child of an aristocratic family.

There is not a single tree in the wilderness of Wannian County, and occasionally there are some small bamboo forests. These bamboos have only grown recently. They are as tall as a person and sparse, so there is no way to hide people.

As for the seedlings in the field, they have only grown an inch or so now, and the dozen or so running big cannibals are particularly eye-catching in such an environment. The one who yelled hurriedly rushed over.

Yin Erhu took a sip of fermented glutinous rice iced with well water, and said to Di Renjie worriedly, "Young master, I'm afraid they won't make it?"

Di Renjie took a sip of the fermented glutinous rice, and said expressionlessly, "The masters in the Prince's six ranks are all masters selected by His Majesty and Queen for the Prince, and nothing will happen."

Yin Erhu smashed it, smashed it, and said, "Why does the little one feel wrong? Just these people, the little one can overthrow them with three brothers." That Bagman, the little one heard from Lord Hou, is the number one in the Western Regions fierce general.

They just rushed over? "
