Chapter 435 Escorting the Barbarian King back to Beijing

"Don't you know yet? His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince captured the Barbarian King alive. If you go too late, you won't be able to see him!"

Someone in the crowd yelled.

Lao Wangtou was stunned at that time.

Is His Highness the Ninth Prince back?
During the southern expedition against the barbarians, they actually captured the barbarian king alive? !
This is too incredible!

The diners in the store were also stunned for a moment, and then they got up and ran with the crowd.

"Old Wangtou, keep the miscellaneous liver soup and eat it when you come back later!"

"The money is on the table. Capturing the Barbarian King alive may never happen again in this lifetime. I'll go and have a look!"

"..."

In the blink of an eye, the diners in the store disappeared.

Lao Wangtou slapped his thigh hard with a look of helplessness.

"I want to see it too!"

However, the store couldn't live without people, so Lao Wangtou could only stand at the door, stretching his neck to look in the direction of the city gate.

But where he is is not on the main street, what can he see?
After hesitating for a moment, Lao Wangtou gritted his teeth and said, "No, I have to go take a look too!"

After speaking, Lao Wangtou began to clear away the tables, chairs and benches.

……

Scenes like this were happening all over the capital, and soon the main road leading directly from the south gate to the palace was filled with people from the capital, almost blocking the road.

There was nothing the Nine Admirals could do in such a big scene. As a last resort, the Imperial City garrison was dispatched and stood on both sides of the street to maintain order in order to avoid any accidents.

You must know that the people of Daqian hate the barbarians to the core. Not to mention, the barbarian invasion two years ago killed more than [-] Daqian soldiers alone, and countless people were killed. It can be said that it was a blood feud. .

With the people in the capital looking forward to it, a group of people slowly entered the city just before noon.

The leader was a handsome man, wearing a python robe and riding a motorcycle with an arrogant expression. It was Li Jianye who was responsible for escorting the Barbarian King.

Behind them were two horses, pulling a prison cart with one person in it.

This man's hair was in a mess, his face was pale, and his expression was dejected. Although his clothes were a little dirty, they could not hide his splendor and majesty. The golden dragon embroidered on them was even more eye-catching.

No need to think about it, this is the Barbarian King.

"Is this the Barbarian King? Why do you look like a beggar!"

"It must be the Barbarian King. Who else but the Barbarian King would dare to wear a robe embroidered with a golden dragon?"

"I really didn't expect that His Highness the Ninth Prince went out to conquer the Southern Barbarians and actually captured the Barbarian King alive!"

"I have to say, His Highness the Ninth Prince is really awesome!"

"Who asked him to provoke His Highness the Ninth Prince? He deserves it!"

"Yes, he was the one who ordered the invasion of our country. So many soldiers and civilians died. It's really damning!"

"kill him!"

"..."

The people who shouted to be killed were relatively good people, and many even took out rotten vegetables, leaves, and rotten eggs and threw them at the Barbarian King. The Barbarian King's limbs were bound with iron chains, and he could only bear it silently with his eyes closed.

Along the way, Li Jianye deliberately showed off the majesty of the army and boosted the morale of the army and the patriotism of the people. Whenever he passed through a city, he would definitely do it in a big way and let people watch. He had long been used to it.

He had shed all the tears of humiliation along the way.

There were so many people in the capital that it was inevitable that some would act carelessly, picking up stones on the ground and throwing them at the Barbarian King's head. Li Jianye saw that the situation was not right and had to give a warning.

"Then who, why did you hit him with a stone?"

"He can't die yet, my father hasn't judged him yet!"

"Asshole, put the stone down!"

"..."

In order to prevent the Barbarian King from being directly stoned to death, Li Jianye had to speed up his march and quickly walked towards the palace.

Then people saw carriages one after another, filled with large boxes. Each carriage was pulled by two horses, which looked extremely laborious.Such a scene aroused the curiosity of the people.

"What's in here?"

"Yeah, it looks very heavy when two horses can't pull it."

"Who knows, I guess it's a trophy, probably silver."

"Good fellow, how much does it cost in terms of silver? You can't even see the end of the carriage when you look at it!"

"It's estimated to be several million taels."

"How can you fight for millions of taels? It must be tens of millions of taels!"

"..."

Emperor Qianwu was pacing back and forth in the imperial study at this time, with a look of uncontrollable joy on his face.

"Changfeng is really proud of me! Unexpectedly, he captured the Barbarian King alive and escorted him to the capital, and also looted more than 2000 million taels of silver!"

In fact, he had received the news a long time ago, but he had been hiding it and had been waiting for this day.

He just wanted to show the people of the world that the barbarian king was captured alive by his prince.

He didn't even announce that Li Changfeng had received more than 2000 million taels of silver. He wanted to wait until the Barbarian King arrived in Beijing in embarrassment before announcing it, shocking everyone in the world.

At this moment, he felt extremely proud in his heart.

How lucky you are to have a son like this!
Gao Dali was also full of joy and couldn't help but remind him.

"Your Majesty, this is just the amount of silver. It has not taken into account the gold and those rare treasures. Judging from the accumulation of the barbarian royal family for so many years, the value of those rare treasures is probably no less than ten million taels. If it were replaced by As for silver, I estimate that I have a total of 3000 million taels of silver."

Hearing this number, even Emperor Qianwu couldn't help but be a little excited: "Yes, now we have no shortage of money. I can fully support whatever Changfeng wants to do in the future!"

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Eleventh Prince should be entering the palace soon. Do you want to see King Barbarian?"

Emperor Qianwu shook his head and said: "He disappeared today. Put the barbarian king in the sky prison. You arrange for people to keep a close eye on him and don't let him commit suicide. He will be taken to the Xuanzheng Hall when the court meeting is held tomorrow. I will make an announcement in front of all the civil and military officials." My prince’s great achievements!”

"But tomorrow is not the time for the court meeting."

"Send the order and call for an impromptu meeting!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

……

The whole capital was in a sensation, and Li Chengye naturally got the news. Since he had been secretly sending people to pay attention to this matter, he knew much more news than ordinary people.

But he was not happy at all. Instead, he locked himself in the secret room and became furious.

"Li Changfeng! Why! Why didn't you die!"

"Damn barbarians, why are you so useless?!"

"Barbarian Temple, you losers, you failed to kill Li Changfeng."

"Why did Li Changfeng get the support of a human being, but I couldn't!"

"why why!?"

"..."

Li Chengye roared hysterically, his expression twisted like an evil ghost.

He originally thought that his plan was perfect, but he did not expect that it would actually come true for Li Changfeng. After this battle, Li Changfeng's reputation would surely reach a new peak, and no one could shake his status.

He has no chance of inheriting the throne.

He was completely desperate.

After a period of crazy venting, Li Chengye gradually regained his composure and began to worry.

The Barbarian King was captured and the Barbarian royal court fell apart. Whether Li Changfeng wanted to be Emperor Wu, he would definitely be able to find out that the fire in Baishi City was not set by the Barbarians.

Although he thought he was doing a very clean job, he was always afraid of what might happen.

With Li Changfeng's current prestige and status in Emperor Qianwu's heart, he couldn't even imagine the outcome after the matter was revealed.
