Chapter 232 The little poisonous snake is evolving
The person coming is Batu.
Horqin Taiji has been transferred.
The youngest son of Princess Duan Min.
He looked a little embarrassed, his legs and feet were not very convenient, and there were blood stains on his robe.
As the son of Princess Heshuo and the Prince of Mongolia, Batu was originally granted a first-class auspicious title, regarded as a first-class official, with an annual salary of one hundred taels of silver and a fourth-class satin.
The salary is not much this year, but the title can be passed down.
When the next generation comes, one person can be selected to inherit the first-class Taiji, and the other sons can directly be granted the fourth-class Taiji.
This is the imperial court's favorable view of Taizu's bloodline and golden bloodline.
Now, everything is empty.
"Pa ta", Batu knelt down and kowtowed to Brother Nine.
"Master Jiu, I was wrong. I don't dare to do it anymore..."
Brother Jiu couldn't help but frown when he saw this.
"Why are you here?"
As the holy cavalry set off, the last remaining Mongolian princes also set off.
There should be no Mongols in the paddock.
Batu no longer had the arrogant look of the princess's beloved son before, and replied honestly: "The slave hid first and asked others to get on the carriage..."
Because there were two princes left here, in addition to the servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, Kangxi also ordered to keep twenty bodyguards and five hundred army guards.
The guards were stationed around the row, but the twenty guards were divided into two ten thousand yuan, one ten thousand yuan was assigned to the ninth elder brother, and one ten thousand yuan was assigned to the tenth elder brother. They were all in front of them.
After listening to Batu's words, some people held the knife handles and were on guard.
Brother Ninth also had a look in his eyes, and he blocked Brother Ten behind him to prevent this guy from hurting anyone with his explosion.
Seeing this, Batu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "My slaves are like this, what else can they do? I'm here now just to beg Master Jiu to show his kindness and let this slave go..."
Brother Jiu heard this and said, "Okay, why are you staring at you?"
Having said this, I suddenly realized.
"Do you think it was me who complained about what happened yesterday?"
Brother Jiu frowned and said: "Are you the one with a small belly? If you want to sue, you should have sued me a long time ago... What happened to you?! It was obviously the eldest princess who roared and was rude in front of the Queen Mother, which made the Queen Mother angry and made Khan Ama angry.
I was so angry that I not only punished the eldest princess and the prince, but also turned my anger on you, my most beloved son..."
After saying this, he helped Batu up with regret.
"We are cousins of the same age, and we are not acquainted with each other. I thought that the position of prince and son will definitely fall to you in the future, and you will be able to walk around the capital decently... Oh, it's a pity, the eldest princess is...
What a mistake. I had a quarrel with the Queen Mother at this time and spoke rudely, saying that the Queen Mother was old and stupid. It seems to be Halloween..."
He seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, and quickly changed his words: "The paddock is also thousands of miles away from Horqin's tribe. Cousin, don't delay, let's go after the eldest princess and the others..."
After saying that, he ordered the steward standing next to him to prepare the carriage.
He also called the military guard school and ordered him to bring fifty vests to escort Batu's team chasing the Darkhan Palace.
It hasn't been long since the ministries set out now. If you hurry up and hurry up, you can catch up in half an hour.
Batu was helped into the carriage in such a state of confusion.
The tenth elder brother was standing by, looking at the ninth elder brother with novelty in his eyes.
Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said: "What? Have you seen this? This is 'talking to people and talking to ghosts'..."
The tenth brother was puzzled: "Just ask someone to kick him out. Why is the ninth brother grinding his teeth with him..."
Brother Jiu sneered and said: "You don't know how much the eldest princess has gone too far. Yesterday she pointed at my nose and scolded me, saying that I was shameless and extorting money. Your sister-in-law protected me, but she said that your sister-in-law is nothing. It's not her turn.
Without your sister-in-law to teach her how to behave... only three years of salary suspension is not a punishment... Does she lack those hundreds of taels of silver?"
Princess Heshuo married a foreign vassal, with an annual salary of four hundred taels and fifteen pieces of satin.
After three years, it was only one thousand two hundred taels.
However, Princess Duan Min had a generous dowry and had no hope of living on a salary.
The tenth prince's face was also ugly.
Brother Jiu continued: "I was feeling depressed at first. She is still an elder even though she is so far away. Even if she is depressed, there is no place to take revenge... It's just a few kind words that come to my door. It can have miraculous effects..."
Brother Ten remembered Batu's expression before he left and nodded.
"He will investigate when he gets back. Once he's sure that's the case, he won't really want to hate the eldest princess..."
Brother Ninth said with a bit of contempt: "It's not surprising, he is a young boy, he is used to being arrogant...and he has no ability. Apart from being a fox who pretends to be a tiger, he is probably the only one left in the nest..."
Shu Shu was nearby and witnessed it, feeling a little weird.
like……
Poisonous tongue nine has a tendency to evolve...
Became a little poisonous snake...
Looks like a villain...
However, Shu Shu's response to what happened just now was similar.
Revenge for Princess Duan Min's rudeness was secondary, the main purpose was to divert Batu's resentment.
It's not that I'm afraid, but it's a bad feeling that I have this mine going and I don't know when it will explode.
Today's move can be regarded as clearing mines.
But right now, isn’t Brother Ten too thin?
When the three of them turned around, Shu Shu and the ninth elder brother sent the tenth elder brother back directly.
At this time, the health of the tenth prince must come first.
Shu Shu called the eunuch next to Brother Ten and found out that Brother Ten had vomited after eating everything else except the diced fruit mixed with yogurt in the past two days.
Shu Shu probably knew it well.
The sour ones are edible.
Some are afraid of greasiness.
She then told Xiaotang to go to the dining room to prepare the pickled cabbage pot.
Use stock as the base, but skim off the oil on top.
What's stewed inside is not fried Yi noodles, but silver noodles.
There are also pickled pickled cucumbers, cut into dices, stir-fried with minced meat, and used with porridge.
Because we had to send off the Holy Emperor, no one had any breakfast.
After a while, breakfast was served.
In addition to pickled cabbage noodles, there is also white porridge, two kinds of vegetarian flower rolls, and several sour side dishes.
As expected, Brother Ten did not vomit and ate two bowls of pickled cabbage noodles.
After finishing breakfast, the tenth elder brother was worried that his brother and sister-in-law would be bored, so he suggested to the ninth elder brother: "When my brother is well in two days, let's take my sister-in-law to hunt..."
This is the royal hunting ground.
Soldiers and civilians are prohibited from entering and hunting is prohibited.
As the prince's elder brother, they took dozens of bodyguards and escorts to hunt, and no one would say anything.
Brother Jiu was moved after hearing this, but he said: "Why wait for you? You support yours, we are stubborn..."
As he said that, he looked at Shu Shu.
Shu Shu thinks more.
Although the Holy Spirit has already departed, the sky is high and the Emperor is not far away.
There are two princes here, and news must have reached the imperial court.
It would be unreasonable to know that they started having fun after the Holy Driver left.
Shu Shu said: "Don't worry, after these few days, when we leave the paddock, it will be more convenient for hunting on the way, and it will save us a day..."
Brother Ninth had no objections and just listened to Shu Shu.
There are chefs from the imperial kitchen here, but there are also local chefs.
After Shu Shu heard about it, she wanted to have one or two sour and light dishes for every meal, and for the rest, she asked the chefs to make some local specialties in the paddock.
The ingredients stocked in the paddock are mainly various kinds of game.
However, there are not many fresh ones, most of them are dried and pickled.
Shu Shu tasted it and decided to change it back to the original menu.
Daily meals are still mainly chicken and mutton.
Three days later, Brother Ten's dizziness improved a lot and he could walk easily.
After another five days, it was almost healed.
At this time, it was already the seventh day of October, and there were only four days left before the 10th Prince's birthday, and only six days left before Shu Shu's birthday.
Brother Jiu was hesitant and discussed with Shu Shu: "Should I celebrate your birthday before setting off?"
Shu Shu felt that it was not necessary.
It's all a birthday party, just a meal of noodles.
But there was also the tenth brother, so she said: "I can even ask the tenth brother for his opinion..."
Brother Ten couldn't wait anymore and said: "Let's go quickly, I'm suffocated and cold..."
Although the ground dragon walking inside the house had already started to burn, it was dry and cold outside.
The terrain here is high, there are mountains and forests, and the temperature is relatively low.
Without outsiders around, Shu Shu loses some restraint and eats rock sugar snow pear, rock sugar white fungus, and rock sugar bird's nest every time.
Not only did he eat it by himself, but he also took the tenth prince and ninth prince to eat.
I also put on a mask.
Even so, the cough will be suppressed.
Every time I lie down at night, my chest always feels tight.
Brother Jiu didn't want to leave before, just for this reason, he wanted to delay for a while, so that he wouldn't even have to go to Shengjing, and would directly return to Beijing.
This is the eastern boundary of the paddock, one thousand miles away from Shengjing and eight hundred miles away from the capital.
From Shengjing to the capital, it is one thousand three hundred miles.
Brother Jiu saw that Shu Shu couldn't stand the cold and was afraid that the hard work of traveling would arouse her illness, so he tried to take advantage of it.
Shu Shu felt it was inappropriate.
Too deliberate.
The symptoms of the tenth elder brother are all on the pulse record of Taiyuan Hospital, which is to be submitted to the imperial court.
Moreover, it is rare to go out, and I don’t know when I will leave Beijing next time.
Two to one.
The three of them took a group of people and set off.
Before leaving the paddock, there is one more hunt.
Hearing that Brother Jiu was going to take Fujin hunting, the Military Academy brought a simple map over.
It is the distance between Xingzai and the Royal Road. There are two small paddocks.
One contains two tigers, and the other contains a herd of deer.
Brother Jiu was fascinated when he thought of the efficacy of deer blood, but he did not act arbitrarily, but instead sought Shu Shu's opinion.
"Let's hunt tigers or deer..."
The guards and soldiers are all there, hundreds of young men.
Let alone two tigers, even if there are ten or eight tigers, it is also everyone's achievement.
Shu Shu thought it was okay.
I’ve seen a lot of tiger skins these days.
Even the tiger bones have a lot of filial piety below.
It’s better not to trouble the king.
"It's still a herd of deer, everyone just needs to add food..."
Shu Shu said.
Therefore, Brother Jiu and several military guards planned a departure route.
Shu Shu got into the carriage and changed into riding clothes. She also covered her face with a thick mask.
She carried a bow on her back and a crossbow in her hand, handing it to Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "You can use it, I also brought a bow..."
Shu Shu still put it in his hand: "I'm afraid I won't dare to make a move when the time comes. I'll still hold it and think I'll cum..."
Otherwise, it would not be good to rely on Brother Jiu's own strength to show his timidity in front of the people below him.
Brother Ninth Brother lacked some self-awareness, so he took it after hearing Shu Shu say it again and again.
The tenth elder brother picked up the car curtain and begged the ninth elder brother: "Ninth elder brother, my younger brother should go too, it's really okay..."
Brother Jiu glared at him and said: "Just wait and see, it's not like we are marching around, we need to add more people, just wait and eat..."
The team marched for an hour and were far away.
By the river ahead, there is a herd of deer drinking water leisurely.
A man in a vest wearing deerskin had already come forward, blowing a deer whistle, and led the deer to the encirclement.
Shu Shu tightened the reins and put down the bow in his hand.
Even the ingredients are a bit hard to get your hands on.
The stag is vigorous...
The female deer is beautiful...
The little deer is exquisite...
Shu Shu turned her head and waited for them to become food.
Brother Jiu was standing by, and when he saw her like this, he showed an expression that was indeed the case.
"You said you shot and hunted when you were a kid. It couldn't be Master Meng, right? I'll have to ask my father-in-law later if it's true or not?"
Shu Shu smiled and said: "What's the lie? I was young at that time and didn't know life and death, so I had less fear... Now that I'm older, it's different..."
Brother Jiu was inexplicable when he heard the word "life and death".
However, he would not confuse this with hunting.
The law of the jungle is the law of this world.
Man is the spirit of all things and can hunt all things.
If there is a higher-level creature above a person, then the person is also prey.
With a solemn look on his face, he picked up the hand crossbow, pointed it at a half-sized doe, and shot it.
The little doe fell down at the sound.
The deer dispersed in a rush.
The 20 guards and 100 guards who were ambushing next to them fired several rounds of mounted fire.
In a short time, many deer fell on the ground.
Some were shot dead directly, while others fell to the ground and screamed.
Brother Jiu got off his horse, took the empty skin water bag from the horse's back, and went to collect the deer's blood.
Shu Shu took a look at it.
Reminds me of the tender deer blood tofu.
The peppers are abundant.
Spicy deer blood tofu, definitely delicious.
While traveling here these days, Shu Shu has not been idle and asked people to prepare a lot of things.
Because the weather is cold and we have to travel a long way, our biggest fear is that someone will get sick.
Shu Shu and the others definitely have nothing to worry about.
In addition to the paddock, there is an imperial road leading to Shengjing.
About fifty to sixty miles along the road, a palace was set up.
However, the palace buildings are limited, and most of the accompanying military guards and vests have to live in tents.
Shu Shu asked someone to prepare several jars of spicy sauce.
Inside are Sichuan peppercorns, aniseed, ginger, pepper and other cold-repelling things.
Zanthoxylum bungeanum is expensive at this time, and the quantity is limited, so ginger is the main one.
There were also a lot of dried vegetables and dried meat inside, and several jars were made.
The guard barracks kitchen sent a few jars directly over to make soup for everyone to ward off the cold.
The twenty guards will eat the food together with Shu Shu and the others.
These guards of the Three Banners are all high-grade officials.
The first-class guards are of the third rank, the second-class guards are of the fourth rank, and the third-class guards are of the fifth rank.
They are all descendants of the Three Banners.
Several of them are familiar with Brother Ten and are descendants of the Niu Gulu family.
The person in charge is a master left behind by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he will also set out to join the large army.
Instead of dining and sleeping in the open air, everyone went directly to the palace on the royal road.
That afternoon, the palace was filled with a spicy smell.
More than 20 deer were shot, leaving three fawns on Shushu's side.
With a small end, I directly cut the meat into slices and stewed it into the spicy soup.
The two slightly larger ones were grilled directly and shared among everyone.
Shu Shu also ate the spicy deer blood that Shu Shu had longed for.
Brother Ninth used the excuse that Old Ten still needed a light diet, so he only allowed him to taste a chopstick, and Shu Shu ate the rest.
At night, Brother Jiu drank a few mouthfuls of deer blood...
