Chapter 319: The King's Court
It turns out that the reason why Jicheng was not invaded last year was that General Xu secretly made a deal with people from the royal court, and the Chalan tribe was of course involved.
Zhu Mingqing thought about it, took it directly into the Immortal Palace, and copied it exactly as it was. After making sure that there was no difference, he put away the original and put the one he had just copied back to its original place.
It was not until midnight that Cha Kejue returned.
"Brother!" Cha Yin came over immediately after hearing the news and asked directly, "Why are you back so late? Did something happen?"
Cha Kejue glanced at him indifferently: "It has nothing to do with you. It's very late. I need to rest!"
Cha Yin was furious. What was there to hide? If she didn't tell him, he would know in two days.
"Then you should have a good rest. I'll be leaving now." He smiled. "If there's anything you need help with, I'd be happy to lend a hand."
Cha Kejue snorted coldly, and after Cha Yin left, he sent his men in.
"Send someone to keep an eye on Cha Yin and don't let him cause any trouble! If he leaves the tribe, report it immediately!"
The subordinate said respectfully: "Yes!"
Zhu Mingqing, who was in the Immortal Palace, also understood that the two sons of Chief Chalan had a bad relationship, and he had another plan in mind.
After Cha Kejue fell asleep, Zhu Mingqing asked the little world spirit to monitor the situation outside, while he began to study the elixir formula alone in the fairy palace.
These recipes all appeared together with those books and are also suitable for mortals, but many of the medicinal ingredients in them have never been heard of.
But this did not prevent Zhu Mingqing from wanting to understand the properties of these medicinal herbs and the effects of individual prescriptions.
"Qingqing, these herbs should actually be found in the Immortal Residence," the little world spirit said, "I just don't know if they're there now."
The recipe for Buyuan Dan in Zhu Mingqing's hand is mainly used to replenish blood, nourish qi, and strengthen the body.
It sounds like it is of no use, but since it can be included in the Immortal Palace, it must not be that simple.
She was busy in the Immortal Palace for a month alone, and with the help of the Earth Clan, she almost searched all the mountains before she could barely gather the medicinal materials for the Yuan Dan.
At this time, Cha Kejue outside also woke up. After packing up, he went directly to his father's tent.
Zhu Mingqing also followed him out of the tent naturally, his footsteps light and silent.
Cha Kejue didn't notice it. The guard at the door frowned and took a look. No one went in that morning.
But seeing that the master had no objection, the guard continued to guard the door with peace of mind.
Zhu Mingqing's heart was indeed in turmoil, but fortunately Cha Kejue did not suddenly turn back. He followed him all the way, and after discovering the other party's direction, he hid again at a corner.
Then just wait for the little world spirit to report the situation in the tent.
Finally, we learned that the Charan tribe was preparing to start a hunting activity at noon today, but in fact it was an opportunity to encircle and suppress the people in the royal court.
If you are discovered, just admit your mistake immediately. Besides, the other party came uninvited and did not disclose his identity at the first time!
Chief Charan frowned: "Is the information accurate?"
Cha Kejue said respectfully, "Father, I personally led people to investigate last night and discovered that the eldest prince is indeed ten miles northeast of the Alang River!"
"Father!" Chalan came running over early in the morning with a smile on his face. "I see that my brother's men are waiting outside, but are they going to take any action?"
He turned to look at his father: "I want to join too!"
Cha Kejue sternly refused: "No!"
Cha Yin: "Father hasn't said anything yet, big brother is being too overbearing!"
Cha Kejue disdained to pay any attention to him and said to his father again: "Father, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!"
Chief Charan nodded slightly: "Go ahead, just pretend you know nothing, but be careful not to hurt the eldest prince!"
Cha Kejue's face immediately became excited: "Yes, I know!"
The eldest prince dared to come and investigate Chalan, and he only brought a few people with him. Did he really think he was invincible?
Thinking of the revenge for his wife being stolen, Cha Kejue could no longer hold back his anger. He directly selected twenty warriors, led them with a rain of arrows, and rushed out.
"Dad, look at my eldest brother's attitude. He is so arrogant and looks down on me. It's really..." Cha Yin was very angry and had countless complaints in his heart, but seeing that his father's face was getting worse and worse, his voice became much softer.
Chief Charan was also helpless about the dispute between his two sons and comforted them, "This matter is of great importance. The fewer people who know about it, the safer it will be."
Cha Yin curled his lips, saying that he was biased towards his elder brother!
Zhu Mingqing was naturally unaware of the quarrel here, but when he saw the backs of Cha Kejue and others walking away, he felt relieved.
For the next two days, I spent the whole day eating and drinking in the tent, occasionally going out for a walk and gathering information.
That day, just after lunch, the sound of galloping horses came from outside.
Zhu Mingqing and Luo Xiao exchanged a glance, and immediately walked out of the tent. They saw Cha Kejue unconscious and being carried by someone, heading quickly towards the center of the tribe.
The two blinked.
Done!
I just don't know what's happening with the people in the royal court.
It won't be soon, they will know on the third day.
The royal court officially sent a summons officer to convey the decree that the eldest prince was injured in the vitals by Cha Kejue and has not woken up yet. Considering that Cha Kejue did not do it on purpose, he will be punished with fifty lashes and will go to the royal court tomorrow with the chief of the Charan tribe to answer for his crime!
Chief Charan gritted his teeth and stared at the summoner expressionlessly.
The summons officer couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and said with a stiff upper lip: "Also, the Khan orders the immediate release of the merchant Wan!"
Chief Charan slammed the table, sure enough!
The summoner was so frightened that his back trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Chief Charan, if there is nothing else, I will leave first!"
After the other party disappeared from view, Chief Chalan kicked over the tables and chairs: "This is too much!"
"Father, calm down." Cha Yin quickly comforted him, then said worriedly, "Brother is still running a fever. How are you going to the royal court tomorrow?"
Chief Charan snorted coldly: "No! Let's go and see your eldest brother!"
Cha Yin exclaimed in surprise, "Not going? What if the royal court comes to question you again?"
Chief Charan glanced at him coldly: "Why, are you scared?"
Cha Yin hurriedly shook his head: "No, I'm just afraid of another fight. After all, we are weak now, and it is not appropriate to offend the royal court directly!"
Chief Charan knew the news, but the royal court was already riding on their heads. It was clearly the eldest prince who came quietly. What if he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with them?
But he forgot that it was Charan who intercepted Master Wan first, and Wang Ting might have received the news and came to rescue him!
"Why not go to the royal court with big brother? Maybe the royal court will not punish you too harshly because big brother is injured!" Cha Yin said with a twinkle in his eyes.
Chief Charan took a deep breath and wondered if there was really no other way.
Seeing that his father was indeed thinking, Cha Yin asked tentatively, "What about the merchants in Nanxia? How about letting me persuade them?"
Chief Charan was worried: "Is it not possible?"
Cha Yin snorted, "It's already like this now, and Big Brother is not able to move around easily. Are we going to leave this matter unresolved?"
Chief Charan sighed, it really couldn't be worse than it is now.
Moreover, people from the royal court have already come. Even if they don’t go, Wan Shangren and his group will still have to leave!
Otherwise, there would be a real head-on conflict with the royal court!
