Chapter 159 Ridiculous People Do Ridiculous Things


If the journey to the northwest felt long, the return trip felt much faster. After passing the Shuangye Mountain in front, it was not far from the capital. However, it was getting late, so it seemed that Chenghe Pong'er and his party could only spend the night in the mountains.
"Young Master, I heard that there is a Qilin Village in the mountains. There is a group of bandits in it. They are very powerful. It is not safe for us to spend the night here." The guards brought by Cheng He reminded him when they saw that he intended to spend the night in the mountains.

"Oh? Are these bandits really guilty?" Chenghe asked.

"I heard that the big boss is quite benevolent. He usually robs homes, kidnaps, etc. They are all bad guys who are unkind for the sake of wealth, but he doesn't disturb the homes of ordinary people."

"Are we bad people?" Chenghe laughed.

"Back to the young master, it's not..."

"That's fine. We haven't done anything evil, and we have nothing to do with him to celebrate the festival. We only spend one night on the flat land between two mountains. It should be fine." Chenghe had already dismounted, and only put the reins on the horse. He didn't even tie it on his back, and the horse didn't go far, but just grazed nearby.

Chenghe walked to the carriage and Pao'er had already got out of the carriage.
"Brother, why don't you leave?" Paoer asked

"It's getting late, we can't go any further, the horses have to eat some fodder, drink some water and rest," Chenghe said

Poorer looked around the top of the mountain, then at the two guards Chenghe had brought this time, and at the driver who was feeding the horse. He couldn't help but become worried, "I see this mountain is weird, not very peaceful..."

"Well, I heard that there are bandits in the mountains, but they don't hurt good people. We only stay for one night, so it's okay." Cheng He comforted
The pauper nodded and walked to the bonfire raised by the guards to rest.
"Where are the two little girls?" Chenghe handed the water bag to the poorer.
"They've had a lot of suffocation all the way, so it's convenient to go to the forest over there." The poor child took a few sips of water

The driver skinned a hare he caught on the road today, spread it with honey and salt, and roasted it on the fire.
Wu'er led Zi Tong back from the woods far away, talking and laughing. Seeing Zi Tong happy, the poor boy felt a lot more relaxed, but he didn't know where Hong Yue was now.
"What are you thinking about?" Chenghe handed the roasted naan brought by Lin Qucheng to Qian'er.
"I miss Hongyue. I wonder how he is doing now, as well as Chanyu and Laibao..."

"Girl, put the bucket down quickly, I'll do the heavy work." As soon as Liu Tong entered the hospital, he saw Chanyu holding the bucket to fetch water from the well.
"It's okay, Big Brother Liu." He took the bucket away, so Chanyu could only stand aside in embarrassment, watching him throw the bucket into the well and shake it up again.

"From now on, you will have to wait until I come back to do this kind of work. Don't do it anymore," Liu Tong said.

"Hongyue's diapers are used up. If I don't wash them, I'm afraid I'll pee on the quilt," Chanyu laughed.

"Is the water tank empty?" Liu Tong remembered that he had filled the water tank when he left.
"There is no difference between scooping water from a water tank and lifting water from a well." Chanyu tried to take the bucket from Liu Tong's hand, but he dodged it again.
Chanyu had no choice but to push the wooden basin on the ground towards his feet
"Little apprentice, are you back?" Laibao sat on the threshold and had been watching the two for a long time.
"Yes! Little Master"

"How is the situation in the city?" Noble asked.

"It's still very chaotic. The soldiers have stepped up patrols in the city. I haven't found any news about the poor girl, but there are rumors that the queen committed suicide in the palace..." Liu Tong didn't know whether the news was true or not, so he hesitated and said it.

When Chanyu heard this, the mallet in her hand hit the ground with a loud bang, and tears instantly flowed out of her eyes.

"Sister, don't cry," Laibao said very calmly, "You don't know our Queen. She is a strong and tenacious person. No matter what the situation is, she will never commit suicide. No matter how hard it is, she will work hard." "Stay alive" "But...but, where is she?" Chanyu collapsed and squatted on the ground crying, Liu Tong was so anxious that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
"How is Taixu Taoist Temple?" Laibao asked again

"We have gone. We are surrounded by Turkic soldiers. We will definitely not be able to get in." Liu Tong replied.

"If we can meet the old Taoist priest, we might be able to find a good solution," Lai Bao said.

"Then I'll go have a look another day," Liu Tongtong said. "I brought back a lot of food this time. Stop crying and put the food away quickly. I will go back before dark in a while. The Turks don't allow it." The shop is closed, I have to go back and take care of it quickly."

As night fell, only this bonfire was glowing red on the flat land between the two mountains of Futaba Mountain, and a few people were sitting by the fire chatting.
This is the first time for Zitong to eat roasted rabbit meat. It may be that he has not eaten well recently, but this meal is delicious.
"Look at you eating like a pig" Chenghe laughed

"Is my uncle making fun of Zi Tong? In the past, the cooks in the palace often cooked rabbit meat for me, but the taste was not as delicious as today's." Zi Tong said while eating
"When it comes to cooking, if someone says your mother is the second, no one in this world would dare to admit the number one," Cheng He said

"It's a pity that my mother has been living in Changning Temple and hasn't cooked any delicious food for her children," Zi Tong said

"What? Why do you live in the temple?" Chenghe asked

"The Changning Temple is a temple within the palace. At that time, there were bad guys in the palace who framed me to go in. I took advantage of the trick and lived there and gave birth to the child safely. Later, she was the one who caused the destruction of my dynasty..." Pao'er answered.

"I am now in the cabinet and writing documents for several cabinet ministers. There is something I want to tell you." Chenghe thought for a long time and decided to tell the poor man.
"What's the matter?" Seeing Chenghe's hesitation, Paoer knew it was not a trivial matter.

"The Turks have been coveting the northwest for more than ten years and have been holding back their troops. Why are they suddenly unable to hold back? Do you know?"

"Is there someone instigating this?" Paoer guessed a thing or two when he saw him asking this question.

"His Majesty, I am the mastermind behind this. When something happened to you, I felt that the previous cabinet ministers sometimes acted strangely. Some letters were secretly sent without my hands. I went quietly before coming to you. I have read them, they are all letters exchanged with Turks, maybe they are blocking my status as brother and sister, and they are deliberately guarding me," Chenghe said.

"What's the benefit of them doing this..." Poor Sitting in the shadow of the fire, she couldn't see her expression at this moment
"The war was started by the envoys sent by the elders. The idea came from the elders. Otherwise, with the straight temper of the Turks, they would just want to fight directly. However, the old general and Mrs. Gan from the northwest cannot be defeated. That's why the elders came up with such a method." Chenghe threw the dry wood in his hand into the fire. "It's ridiculous for His Majesty to provoke this war. His Majesty recently accepted a new noble concubine, and he is very favored. The imperial concubine heard about it somewhere. It was said that there is a kind of honeydew melon that is abundant in Guazhou in the northwest and can improve your appearance and longevity, so she clamored for it."

"If you want honeydew melons, just tell me, Your Majesty. Give her as much as she wants. Why go to all the trouble to hurt so many innocent people and die miserably?" The poor man secretly clenched his fists and looked back at the man who was already eating. Wu'er and Zitong sleeping soundly

"The imperial concubine only wanted to have it all for herself. She didn't want anyone else to be more beautiful or live longer than her, so she encouraged your majesty to grow old together with her. Your majesty knew that the king of the northwest would definitely not give up the land of Guazhou, so he wanted to pass the Turks Get the land of Guazhou," Chenghe said

"Fun Lord, how can he be the king of a country like this? He must die, otherwise I will be sorry for those loyal ministers and lovers who died in the northwest..." Poor child thought silently in her heart, because she had sworn to avenge those who died tragically
