The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 114 The Mysterious Old Craftsman

"Is this really Meng Jiaolong? Was it so easy to be tamed by the prince?" Wang Hai said with a surprised expression.

Don't say that Wang Hai doesn't believe it, the lazy horse in front of him is Meng Jiaolong.Even if Li Chengqian was right, how could the king of horses surrender so easily.

But Li Chengqian didn't care about him. He put his feet on the horse's belly and laughed and said, "From now on, you will be my king's mount. This king will never treat you badly. I will recruit as many beautiful mare as you want. .”

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Meng Jiaolong walked upright.And let out a cheerful neigh.

"See, what kind of owner rides what kind of horse. A horse that is not decent is not decent." Cheng Chuhuan said after curling his lips.

When Li Chengqian heard Cheng Chuhuan's words, he almost fell off his horse.The expression is so embarrassing and embarrassing.

In order to alleviate his embarrassment, Li Chengqian said: "Jiang Chengzu went to fetch two loads of water for this king. This king wants to show you what color this dream dragon is."

After Jiang Chengzu let out a sigh, he turned and left.After a while, he came back with a load of water.And also brought Li Chengqian a brush for brushing horses.

Li Chengqian turned over and got off Meng Jiaolong, then reached out and patted the horse's head.He smiled and said: "Now this king will give you a wash, lest these mortals with naked eyes look down on you."

After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian began to bathe Meng Jiaolong, splashing clear water on Meng Jiaolong's body.Gently brushing with a horse brush, the originally clear water turned extremely turbid.

In the end, Jiang Chengzu returned with four or five loads of water to wash away the dirt on Meng Jiaolong's body.At this time, I was looking at where Meng Jiaolong was still a dark horse.

At this time, Meng Jiaolong was golden yellow all over, and dragon scale patterns appeared on the horse's neck.At this moment, look at this dream dragon again, it doesn't look like the original lazy horse.

"My God, if it weren't for the prince's insightful eyes today, I'm afraid that the king of horses, Dream Dragon, would be out of the soup pot and drink horse broth." Wang Hai said in shock.

"This means you can't look at the surface of anything, otherwise you can only be a superficial person." Li Chengqian said proudly.

"My lord, now we all have BMW horses, but we don't have any harness. See if your lord can help us find a way." Zhao Tingxuan said to Li Chengqian with a smile.

After Li Chengqian nodded, he turned to the county magistrate of Longmen County and said, "Magistrate of Longmen County, how about I leave this matter to you? Don't worry, I won't let you spend any money."

"His Royal Highness, you can rest assured, I will send someone to arrange it right away. His Royal Highness is satisfied with the safekeeping." The county magistrate of Longmen County said with a smile.

Immediately, the magistrate of Longmen County ordered Shi, the magistrate of Longmen County, to buy horse gear for Li Chengqian and others.And explain that you must buy the best.

However, the magistrate of Longmen County took Li Chengqian and others to the county government of Longmen County.Cleaning up the dust for everyone, of course, can also be regarded as practice.

……

"His Royal Highness, I have equipped all the horses with harnesses. Even the horseshoes have been nailed." Longmen County Magistrate Shi came in and said to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian nodded after hearing this, and then asked Longmen County Magistrate Shi: "How much money did you spend in total, I will give it to you later."

"What did His Highness the Xian Wang say? How can I get His Highness the Xian Wang to pay for it? Besides, these harnesses didn't cost a penny." Longmen County Magistrate Shi said to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian frowned after hearing this, and asked Longmen County Magistrate Shi: "Are these harnesses already available in the county government of Longmen County?"

"There is no harness in the county government. These harnesses are all made by an old craftsman in Longmen County." Longmen County Magistrate Shi shook his head and said.

This time Li Chengqian was really angry, and Li Chengqian stood up abruptly.With a sinking face, he said to Longmen County Magistrate Shi: "Since it is made by an old craftsman, why don't you pay him?"

"You want to accuse this king of defrauding the people. If I don't punish you today, where is the law of the Tang Dynasty?"

This action frightened Longmen County Magistrate Shi, and hurriedly said to Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness the Xianwang made a mistake to blame the subordinate. It's not that the subordinate does not want to pay, but that the old craftsman doesn't want anything."

"It's just that the old craftsman told the lower official that if His Highness the Xianwang wants to pay, then let His Royal Highness go to his residence in person."

Li Chengqian couldn't help being stunned by the words of Longmen county magistrate Shi.After all, this matter is indeed a bit unbelievable.I don't know what kind of medicine the old craftsman sells in the gourd.

"It seems that this king has wrongly blamed you. If that's the case, then you should lead the way. This king is going to meet this old craftsman." Li Chengqian said to Longmen County Magistrate Shi.

Then he led everyone out of the Longmen county government office.When Li Chengqian saw the six war horses in front of the county government office, he couldn't help being surprised.

Originally, Li Chengqian thought it was just a saddle and stirrup.But Li Chengqian didn't think that the six war horses were neatly dressed at this time.

Moreover, the horse is not wearing leather armor, but a very cumbersome chain mail.The entire war horse was wrapped in chain armor, except for the horse's eyes and a small part of the horse's hooves, everything else was wrapped in chain armor.

Li Chengqian came to his Dream Dragon to take a look, and found an ancient Chinese character written on the Ma'an Bridge.

This surprised Li Chengqian even more, because Li Chengqian was very clear about what this word represented.

So he urged Longmen County Magistrate Shi to lead the way.Li Chengqian didn't plan to ride a horse, but led everyone away on foot.

Because Li Chengqian felt that the only way to go to see the old craftsman was on foot.to show respect for it.

……

"Grandpa, do you think the virtuous king will come?" A young man in his twenties asked an old man with gray hair.

"He will come, don't say that he is just a prince, even if Li Shimin sees him, he will come to see the old man himself." The old man with white hair said confidently.

"Grandpa, have you really decided?" the young man nodded and asked the old man.

"It is estimated that no one can save your father except him. And I'm afraid this is the only chance." The old man said after sighing.

"Grandpa, what happened to my father? Why doesn't Grandpa want to tell his grandson now?" the young man asked the old man.

"Soon, you will know soon." The old man said with his eyes slightly closed.

The young man understands that even if he asks now, it will be useless.So he could only sigh and head out of the house.

He hoped that Li Chengqian could come here to meet his grandfather as his grandfather said.Only then will he know what happened to his father Dao.
