Chapter 564 Welcome to His Royal Highness Prince

Seeing that Liu Ming and Han Chao were pushing each other, Hua Yongxin wanted to hear their opinions, so he persuaded: "Military Han, why not just talk about it. This general also wants to hear the reasons. I hope you can answer your questions and answer questions."

When Han Chao saw that Hua Yongxin was also persuading her, he refused again. He knew that Hua Yongxin wanted to hear it was true, while Liu Ming wanted to test whether he had real talents and knowledge.

After thinking about it, Han Chao shook the fan in his hand and said, "Even so, I will just push it randomly, I hope everyone will not laugh."

Han Chao said while shaking his fan: "It's not surprising that there are strange phenomena in this tomb of the former king. You know that the tomb of the former king is extremely luxurious. The decoration inside is almost the same as the decoration of the palace. There are countless brocade cloth inside, the curtains are hanging high, the coffins are thick, and the treasures are countless, but these are not the main reasons."

After hearing this, Hua Yongxin asked anxiously: "What is the reason? Please continue with Military Advisor Han."

Han Chao smiled slightly and said, "The main reason is that there are dozens of eternal lamps in the tomb. They are twisted into wicks with cotton wool, and then rolled into long thin tubes with iron sheets. Each is placed in huge stone jars. Those jars are filled with sesame oil, which can burn for twenty years."

As he said that, he pointed to the tomb, "The four walls and bottom of the tomb are tamped with earth, and the top is made of thick wood. Although there is a door left on one side, the coffin of the former king was closed and compacted with earth, and then the mound was piled up, and it was not opened again. However, this rammed earth is soil after all, and over time, it can't stand mice, rabbits, etc., and build holes in the tomb."

Hua Yongxin, Liu Ming and others nodded after hearing this.

Han Chao continued: "This morning's vision of the tomb was actually caused by a weasel in the tomb."

Hua Yongxin was shocked after hearing this and asked, "Military Han, how can you see it?"

Han Chao smiled and said, "This morning, the weasel who lived in the tomb, accidentally fell into the tank because of greed for sesame oil in the tank. When it crawled out of the tank in a panic, it pulled down the wick. The wick lit the curtain, causing the entire tomb to catch fire, and then led to the oil in several tanks, causing the tomb to become a sea of ​​fire and produce gas smoke. Due to the strict sealing of the tomb, the gas smoke cannot be discharged, which then caused an explosion and exploded the tomb to explode and cracked. When the soldiers saw this scene, they mistakenly thought it was normal to think that it was haunted."

After hearing this, Hua Yongxin nodded and said yes.

Liu Ming secretly praised himself, but he still asked: "Military Han, I agree with your reasoning, but how could you know it was done by the weasel?"

Military Commander Han smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, haven't you noticed a weasel covered in oil and burned in the hole next to the tomb?"

After hearing this, Liu Junshi thought to himself: "Why didn't I find it? I also know it was caused by a fire in the oil cylinder in the tomb, but I don't have the ingenious reasoning as meticulously as he did. With this, Han Chao will be my tough opponent in the future."

After thinking about it, he smiled relaxedly and said, "Oh, I heard that weasel has spiritual energy, and people call him Wong Tai Sin!"

As breakfast was approaching, Hua Yongxin and Ansai Army advisor Han Chao to help him repair the tomb of the ancient kings of Ansai. Ansai will pay the silver for the needs, and the Xixia State will manually help him repair it to eliminate complex personnel exchanges.

After discussion, they will return.

Military advisor Han Chao returned to the tent. Before he had time to rest, soldiers came to report that the prince of Ansai was here. Han Chao didn't even have a drink of water, so he hurriedly gave up the tent and greeted the intersection outside the tent with General Guo Chong and others.

Looking around, I saw a group of people coming up on the road.

The cavalry in front of them were leading the way, holding many flags, wearing armor, carrying swords and swords, and dozens of cavalrymen.

There were two horses in the team carrying a luxurious and grand car, and the guards on both sides were walking to protect them.

Behind the car was a hundred soldiers wearing training uniforms, and they were coming to the camp.

Bang, bang, bang—

The cavalry walking in the front also beat the gong in his hands from time to time and sounded the gong to open the way, which attracted the people on the frontier to come out to watch the fun.

Praise, screams, laughter, and insults came one after another.

When Guo Chong and others saw the team coming to the front, they hurriedly ordered the soldiers behind them to fire their cannons.

Dong, Dong, Dong...

Twenty-four sounds, welcoming the prince with the highest etiquette at that time.

The cavalry of the prince's team all turned over and dismounted, stood at the side, waiting.

The prince's carriage came up from the middle, Guo Chong, Han Chao and the generals hurriedly came forward and shouted in unison:

"We welcome His Highness the Prince!"

The soldiers who drove the car grabbed the horses and stopped the car. The guards in casual clothes leaned over and whispered in front of the curtain: "The barracks have arrived, please get out of the car."

After a while, I saw the curtain of the car lifting and leaning out from inside, a man wearing a beautiful dragon robe walked out.

A soldier bent down and knelt in front of the car door.

The prince stepped on the soldier's back and was supported by the guards in casual clothes to the ground.

The prince shook his dragon robe, limped to Guo Chong and others, and asked:

"Who is Guo Tong's dear?"

After hearing this, all the generals secretly enjoyed themselves.

Guo Chong hurriedly bowed and said, "The last general is!"

Guo Chong secretly looked at the prince. Since Guo Chong had been guarding the frontier for more than ten years and had never returned to the capital, the prince was only in his teens when he came, and now he was over 20 years old, so how could he recognize him?

I saw that the prince was dressed in a princely manner, with a dragon robe and a jade belt and a crown on his head. But looking at it, his appearance was a bit miserable. His mouth was crooked, his eyes were slanted, his head was not straight, his tongue was a little big, and his face was covered with stars. This made Guo Chong, who was not handsome, feel really happy in his heart. But no matter how ugly it is, it is the prince after all.

Guo Chong hurriedly stepped forward to support the prince, and the prince grinned and laughed.

"Love dear, look at the great achievements in the border defense. I thank you for your Fengwang."

Although the prince is not good-looking and speaks without hesitation, he is very scheming.

Guo Chong replied respectfully: "Prince, please rest in the tent for a while before setting off for Xixia?"

The prince nodded and said, "Okay, let's take a breath for a while, then shake the tea." After that, he followed Guo Chong, Han Chao and other generals to the camp.

......

In the Xixia side, Hua Yongxin's general's mansion was more elegant than usual. In order to create an atmosphere, several large lanterns were hung outside the mansion gate.

As soon as we entered the courtyard of the gate, more than a dozen soldiers were added, arranged in two rows, all holding big swords and spears, and stood majestic.

There were also a lot more soldiers going back and forth in the mansion than usual. There were very few maids and mothers walking around.

This is a majestic atmosphere deliberately created by Hua Yongxin, and was prepared to show it to the prince of Ansai and his group.

Master Gao and Liu Junshi also changed into new clothes and sat with Hua Yongxin in the main hall of the General's Mansion, drinking tea and talking, waiting for Prince Ansai's arrival.

Hua Yongxin had already sent a side general Gong Zhang, who was under his command, to guard the riverside and greet Prince Anse, and gave him orders. If Prince Anse crossed the river, he must come in casual clothes, and the entourage he brought could not exceed a hundred followers.

The side general Gong Zhang took the order and waited quietly by the river in the blink of an eye.
Chapter completed!
