Chapter 136 There is something wrong with Manqian’s body
The night in Chang’an City is already a bit dense.
At Taiwei's Mansion, although Taiwei Zhou opened the door of the mansion, he already had the intention of seeing off the guests.
The young prince stood at the door and did not move, stuck at the door.
"Lieutenant Zhou is a veteran of the Second Dynasty. In the past, he stationed troops abroad to fight against the evil country like General Cheng, and made many military exploits. Later, he entered the dynasty and defeated 500,000 rebels with an army of 100,000..."
< br>
More than ten meters away from Taiwei's mansion, Zhang Qian's eyes were a little fanatical, and he whispered about Taiwei Zhou's enviable achievements in the past.
But near Zhang Qian, Zhang Xuezhou sensed opposition.
A veteran of two dynasties and a current young prince.
The two of them seemed polite and courteous, but neither of them gave in.
Zhou Taiwei's impatience was not without reason, and the prince's thoughts were understandable.
"The old minister is old and has difficulty in practicing martial arts. He can't help His Highness repeatedly tossing him like this." Zhou Taiwei frowned and said: "In addition, this time, you have sent the ninth successor who claims to be the Yin Yang family's Taoist method!"< br>
“Nine is a good number,” the prince said.
"You said eight was a good number last time," Zhou Taiwei said.
“Eight is good too!”
“What about seven?”
"Seven is not bad."
......
Zhou Taiwei took a deep breath, feeling that he could not communicate with today's children.
He is willing to contribute to the Han Dynasty, but there must be a standard for being a cow or a horse.
Just as you can play and sing every day when you are young, once a month when you are old, even if your physical strength is quite good, the same is true for casting spells.
As he gets older, the magic power in Zhou Taiwei's body becomes more and more pure, but the magic power is not as surging as when he was young.
The power of his spellcasting is very strong, but the frequency of spellcasting continues to decrease with age.
In these short two or three months, he has cast spells for the prince eight times, and was assigned three times by Emperor Jing.
This frequency of casting spells made Zhou Taiwei a little overwhelmed, so it was extremely normal for him to refuse.
But the prince was like a stubborn cow. He was stuck on the threshold and refused to leave, leaving Zhou Taiwei in a dilemma.
"Your Highness, although Xiliu Technique is accurate in detecting people, it requires too much mental energy to survey the world," Zhou Taiwei reminded.
"The Taiwei's magic can reach the world, why is it hidden? Others don't know the details of your fine willow skills, but I know three points." The prince said: "The limit of your skills is at least twenty times. , it is impossible that you lack of concentration for the twelfth time, you just don’t want to waste your energy on useless surveys. , but now that those who pretend to be disciples of the Yin and Yang family are imprisoned, it is very rare for people who have the courage to come forward to fulfill their wishes. I feel that this practice must be rewarding."
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, will be rewarded every time. An irresistible reason!"
Taiwei Zhou sighed.
The prince in front of him is very young, but his character is stubborn and will not give up until he achieves his goal.
The meaning of his words was already obvious, but the prince still insisted on his opinion.
Zhou Taiwei felt that this was not a good quality for a qualified king.
The Han Dynasty needed a king who was flexible and discerning, not a stubborn one.
He will practice tonight, but Zhou Taiwei's evaluation of the prince has also dropped a level. If Emperor Jing asks about it, it is obviously impossible for him to say good things.
“Come in!”
After thinking again and again, Lieutenant Zhou extended his hand to invite and changed the farewell to welcome.
When he glanced behind him, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Why, did he faint from fear when he heard that the fake Yin Yang family disciple needed to be imprisoned?"
Zhou Taiwei looked behind him and saw that the body of the Yin Yang family disciple recommended by the prince was already limp. , lying on top of a young general, he didn't look like a normal person.
This made his previous judgment even more firm. Even the prince's expression changed slightly at this time.
"Captain, it's not that Man Qian fainted from fright, it's that he has something wrong with his body and must fall asleep at one o'clock." Zhang Qian replied loudly: "It doesn't matter where you are, as long as the time comes, Man Qian will Qian just go to bed!"
"Absurd. , How can there be such a thing in the world?" Zhou Taiwei said: "If there was a sharp knife in front of him, he would dare to lie down forward and fall asleep!"
"The young general has never seen Manqian lying on a sharp knife, but he A few days ago, I fell asleep while lying on the horse, and my face was swollen!" Zhang Qian said.
"Taiwei, you don't need the subject to be awake to perform the technique, right?" The prince said: "You can just perform the technique. If he is not a disciple of the Yin Yang family, I will personally send them to prison!"< br>
"Huh?"
Zhang Xuezhou didn't feel much after hearing this, but Zhang Qian's heart felt as if it was frozen.
Zhang Qian heard clearly that the prince was not talking about 'him', but 'them'.
This means that not only the impostors will be punished, but the sponsors will obviously also suffer the same treatment.
This is completely different from Zhang Qian's previous imagination of paying a small salary to achieve a big gain.
At the moment, this is not about making a big gain, but about using your future and even your life to gain a chance.
This price was unbearable for Zhang Qian.
Faintly, he seemed to have a glimpse of something above the imperial court.
Even if the prince acts, the prince has to compromise on some things, otherwise it will be difficult for the prince to talk in plain words and make people do things.
The prince's words are now a guarantee, but in Zhang Qian's opinion, this guarantee that the sky is about to collapse does not seem to satisfy Zhou Taiwei.
"Your Highness, please!"
Zhou Taiwei glanced at Zhang Xuezhou. It was obvious that he only had a routine plan, and it was difficult to have the idea of doing things carefully in the past.
He stepped forward, followed by the prince.
Then it was Zhang Qian who carried Zhang Xuezhou on his back.
“Let me help you!”
The groom Wei Qing took the initiative to lend a hand, which made Zhang Qian, who was slightly unsteady, smile reluctantly and thank Wei Qing.
"You're welcome," Wei Qing said, "As long as you don't fool His Highness!"
"How dare we fool His Highness," Zhang Qian said, "Everything I have checked is true!"< br>
“Then you don’t have to "Afraid" Wei Qing said: "Besides, deceiving the emperor is a crime of beheading, but deceiving His Highness is not that serious. At most, it will break the legs or pull out the tongue, and it will not hurt your life!"
"You!" Saying this makes me even more scared!”
Zhang Qian felt uncomfortable when he thought that he might become disabled or bumble and unable to speak.
He is very confident in the investigation, but he has no particularly reliable confidence in Zhang Xuezhou.
It has been smooth sailing since joining the army, but only now did Zhang Qian realize that he was beginning to be severely beaten by society.
Zhang Xuezhou, who was carrying him on his back, was as heavy as a mountain, making Zhang Qian breathless.
If it were not for the help of Wei Qing beside him, Zhang Qian felt that there was a high possibility that his legs would be weak and he would fall.
But what happened had no other effect except making the prince suffer more ridicule from Taiwei Zhou.
Zhang Qian stabilized his body and was ready to break his legs and pull out his tongue.
He stepped into the Taiwei Mansion with a brave face, like a warrior about to die.
Wei Qing was amazed by Zhang Qian's sudden excitement. He felt that Zhang Qian was also a hard-headed person, and he saw through life and death at the moment of death.
People with this kind of temperament are not afraid of danger when faced with life and death decisions, and can make appropriate choices, which is far better than some members of aristocratic families who appear to be powerful.
If Zhang Qian's personal strength were stronger, Wei Qing felt that the prince could recruit such a person to his subordinates for use.
