Chapter 10
"Father, why are you here?"
When Tang Long saw Emperor Tang coming, he was shocked. He didn't dare to take action. He immediately stopped and dismounted and knelt on the ground.
Emperor Tang said with a gloomy face: "If I don't come, are you going to kill the prince today and force me to abdicate?"
"Don't dare!"
Realizing that Emperor Tang was furious, Tang Long panicked: "Father, I think my ninth brother has stolen your carry-on sword, so I attacked my ninth brother. Please calm down my anger!"
In the entire court, Tang Longtian was not afraid of the earth, but only feared Emperor Tang. After all, Emperor Tang was not the crown prince back then, but took the throne by killing his brother. Emperor Tang knew very well. Even if all the military generals in the court were obeyed his orders, if Emperor Tang planned to liquidate him, he would be unable to resist.
"I personally handed over the Yuanhong Sword to your ninth brother, how can I steal it?" Emperor Tang shouted in a deep voice.
Tang Long was shocked: "What? The Yuanhong Sword was personally given to the ninth brother by his father and emperor?"
"Brother, my father said in person. You should believe it now, right?" Tang Yu sneered.
"This is this"
Tang Long's face looked extremely ugly. He really couldn't believe that Emperor Tang, who had always been dissatisfied with Tang Yu, would hand over his carry-on sword to Tang Yu.
Tang Yu looked at Emperor Tang and smiled and said, "Thank you for giving the sword to your father. Now that I have achieved my goal, I would like to ask my father to take back the Yuanhong Sword!"
After his words fell, Tang Yu came to Emperor Tang with the Yuanhong Sword with a smile. When Emperor Tang saw Tang Yu return the Yuanhong Sword, he was very surprised.
"You borrowed the Yuanhong Sword to kidnap Master Lu Qiulu?"
"Yes, my father, I want to develop a secret weapon!" Tang Yu smiled.
When Tang Long heard this, he immediately said, "No! No! Father, Master Lu Qiulu was invited by me. At present, the golden fire cavalry is in need of excellent weapons, and it is urgent to wait! If our Tang Dynasty wants to start a war with the Great Chu in the near future, and the weapons cannot be developed, it would be a big problem!"
"Oh? As you mean, you don't want to borrow Master Lu for your ninth brother for two days?" Emperor Tang asked.
Tang Long said with a frustration: "Father, if the ninth brother borrows other things, the child will naturally have no objection. It's just that Master Lu is of great significance and the child does not want to!"
Lu Qiu was the first founder of the Tang Dynasty. He had cast countless magical weapons. If Tang Yu borrowed Lu Qiu and refused to repay it, then his losses would be huge. Even if Emperor Tang spoke at this moment, Tang Long would not want to lend Lu Qiu out.
"But I am very interested in the secret weapon developed by your ninth brother!" Emperor Tang said.
Tang Yu's answer in the imperial study just now refreshed Emperor Tang's understanding of Tang Yu, and now Emperor Tang has a little expectation for Tang Yu.
Seeing Emperor Tang support himself so hard, Tang Yu smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, Master Lu, I will borrow Master Lu for two days. In two days, I will definitely return Master Lu to you. At present, Da Chu is greedy for my Tang Yangzhou City, and the relationship between the two countries is tense. For the interests of the Tang Dynasty, you shouldn't just care about your own feelings and ignore the safety of the entire Tang Dynasty, right?"
In fact, Tang Yu kept sneering in his heart. As long as Lu Qiu was borrowed by him and wanted to return it, it was simply a daydream.
He didn't know the value of the word "The First Founder of the Tang Dynasty". Besides, he still had countless black technologies that require advanced founders to develop. It was impossible for him to let Lu Qiu go.
"Tang Yu, don't be sharp-tongued here!"
Tang Long said angryly: "Don't talk to me about family and country interests. Why don't I know what wishful thinking you are trying to do? I want Master Lu, right? Yes! As long as you fight with me, if you can beat me, let alone borrow Master Lu for two days, I would rather give it to you!"
What! A fight?
As soon as these words were said, everyone at the scene was shocked. They didn't expect Tang Long to make such an unreasonable request.
"Father, my Tang Dynasty established the country with martial arts. My Ninth Brother wants Master Lu, and I want to fight with my Ninth Brother. What do you think?" Tang Long looked at Emperor Tang.
Emperor Tang looked at Tang Yu, and he said with great interest: "Lao Jiu, it seems that your elder brother will not willingly lend you Master Lu if he doesn't fight!"
"Since my brother wants to fight, then let's fight!" Tang Yu replied.
Xiao Yushu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Highness, you can't agree. The eldest prince is brave and good at fighting. Once you agree, you may be asking for trouble!"
"Satisfaction!" Tang Yu's mouth raised slightly and he smiled evilly.
Although Tang Long is tall and powerful, he is very skilled in martial arts, Tang Yu is not a vegetarian.
You know, before the time travel, he was a special military doctor. Although he was not a special warrior, Tang Yu's skills were very comparable to those of people.
Moreover, Tang Yu is from the modern era. He is proficient in many fighting techniques, far beyond the ancient times. Even if his physical fitness is poor now, with many fighting skills, Tang Yu is confident that he can play with Tang Long.
Seeing Tang Yu agreeing, Emperor Tang was overjoyed and said, "Okay! Very good! Then let me see which one of you two brothers is stronger and who is weak, go back to the palace and go to the martial arts field!"
The news that the eldest prince Tang Long was going to play with the prince Tang Yu spread throughout the court and the country like wings. A large number of civil servants and generals quickly gathered in the martial arts performance venue. Their faces were full of playfulness, as if it would take long for Tang Yu to be beaten by Tang Long to look for teeth on the ground.
"Tsk tsk! I really didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would dare to accept the invitation from the eldest prince. Don't he know how the four words "sincere" are written?"
"Who knows! However, His Highness the Crown Prince is so courageous! It's a pity that he is destined to be the eldest prince's opponent!"
Many civil servants and generals whispered. They looked at Tang Yu in the martial arts stadium with joking eyes, as if Tang Yu was just a clown who couldn't get on the table and would soon laugh at everyone's teeth.
The third prince Tang Shuheng joked: "Brother, the ninth brother is weak. You must show mercy later. Don't beat the weak ninth brother to death with one punch!"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Hearing the third prince's words, a group of generals who supported Tang Long laughed out loud.
"Don't worry, with your courage to face the challenge, I will be able to get out of bed for at most for half a month!" Tang Long sneered.
When he was in the martial arts arena, Tang Yu said with a relaxed expression: "Thank you, brother, for your kindness, but I have to remind you that you should not be too full of words, be careful that you will be slapped in the face!"
"Slap in the face? Humph! Just by you? I hope that my ninth brother will remain stubborn as always!" Tang Long sneered.
"Your Majesty, is it almost done?"
On the viewing stage, the eunuch Zhao Gao looked at Emperor Tang.
The prince was playing games, and Emperor Tang was energetic. He slowly spoke: "Boss, Lao Jiu, the rules are very simple. Whoever falls from the ring first today will be the loser. No one on both sides of this battle is allowed to use weapons. You are brothers, you can have a chance to compete, but you must stop!"
"Okay, the battle officially begins!"
