That night, although there were still some unusual noises outside occasionally, everyone was able to sleep well.
On the third day, the Third Prince sent his personal guards to pick up Chen Zhao and the others. It turned out that the Third Prince wanted to hold a celebration party and eat a roasted whole lamb, and he didn't want to cause a commotion in the temple.
Chen Zhao and others got on the carriage and opened the windows to look out. The streets had returned to their former bustle, as if everyone had become accustomed to the rebellion, but occasionally traces of burning or smashing would suddenly catch their eyes.
When we arrived at the Third Prince's territory, two skinned fat sheep had already been placed on the fire, and not far away someone was making milk tea and hand-held lamb chops. It can be said that they had thought very carefully.
The third prince came forward with a hearty laugh, warmly hugged Chen Zhao, Tai Jiye and the others, and patted their backs vigorously!
Chen Zhao grimaced in pain and slapped back with equal force, but unfortunately the Third Prince was as strong as a bear, so he couldn't feel any pain, it was probably just like a tickle!
Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were laughing and giggling, one on each side hanging on the third prince's arm, being led forward by him, and they were extremely happy.
The third prince was also a fun guy. He bent down slightly and motioned Chen Ruiyang to climb onto his back, and then they became a moving "human car"!
Seeing this, the guards and slaves who were originally busy lowered their heads and worked even harder, their expressions becoming more respectful.
You must know that the third prince will soon become the Khan, and he is the king of the entire grassland. Now he is so close to several people from the Wei Dynasty!
This time the old doctor also attended the celebration banquet, walking behind with a smile on his face.
When it was time to sit down, the third prince personally led him to sit behind the table on the left.
Chen Zhao called two guards to bring a few jars of strong liquor and said with a smile, "This is the fine wine our caravan brought. You were so anxious before that you probably didn't feel like drinking. Now I've brought a few jars over, and I'll leave the rest for you to enjoy slowly."
The Third Prince laughed heartily and replied, "I used to think that the only good thing about your Great Wei was the liquor, but everything else was worthless, including the people. They were so treacherous! But after meeting you, I realized that the Great Wei also has good brothers."
He personally broke the seal off a jar of fine wine, held it in his arms, and filled it for everyone. "Come, come, to use the words of your Great Wei, I'm offering you a bottle of wine to thank you for your help! Let's drink this bowl!"
Everyone raised their wine bowls, clinked glasses from a distance, and drank it all in one gulp.
At this time, the roasted whole lamb was brought up, the lamb fat was melted, the skin was shiny and sizzling, and the aroma was so delicious that it could make you fall over!
Tai Yonglu, Yongyue and Chen Ruiyang volunteered, drew their daggers, cut the mutton and sent it to each table!
The Third Prince liked their liveliness and willingness to be strangers, and couldn't help but ask them to stay. "Brother Chen, let these boys stay on our grassland for a few years! I'll teach them horseback riding and archery!"
Chen Zhao waved his hand and said with a smile, "No, they are the treasures of the family! The old man and their parents are looking forward to their return! Besides, we in the Great Wei Dynasty value study more. Even for this trip, they still have to memorize articles and take exams when they return."
The third prince thought of the densely packed books and couldn't help but cast sympathetic glances at the boys!
The children of Wei are so pitiful!
It’s nothing like the grassland, where you can ride horses and run freely every day!
Thinking of this, he felt even more distressed. After the boys had eaten and drunk their fill, he called the guards to bring out the prepared boxes.
When the lid of the box was opened, it was revealed that it was full of things, including daggers and scimitars inlaid with gems, horse whips, wolf tail pendants, and various ornaments. It really had everything!
"Take these and play with them, boys. They are all spoils of war!" The third prince waved his hand generously, and the three boys rushed over happily.
"This bracelet is beautiful, and the ruby is so festive. I'm going to save it for my sister to wear during the Chinese New Year!" Chen Ruiyang was the first to grab the bracelet.
Tai Yonglu followed closely behind, "This dagger is small, my sister will definitely like it too."
"Leave this golden bowl for my mother!"
"This saddle is for Grandpa!"
The boys sat on the ground and divided the spoils, making a lot of noise and having a lot of fun, which made the adults laugh.
Chen Zhao and Tai Jiye thought these things were too valuable and wanted to refuse them.
The third prince refused to allow this and replied, "It's all your credit that I was able to rescue my father and help me successfully obtain the Khanate. I deserve all the good things I can give you!"
After that, he asked the guards to bring a plate full of gold and gems and gave it to the old doctor as a thank you gift.
The old doctor saw through it and immediately bowed and accepted the gift.
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk!
He is already very old, and he followed the caravan into the grassland in the middle of winter to treat the Khan and save the country. The risks involved are simply too numerous to mention, and these generous rewards are well deserved!
Sure enough, the third prince was very happy and asked to keep the guests.
"Doctor, do you have any relatives in the Wei Kingdom? If you have no worries, could you stay on the grassland for a long time? With your medical skills, you will surely be rich and powerful. With me here, no one will dare to bully you..."
The old doctor smiled and shook his head, replying, "To be honest, Third Prince, I'm not young anymore, and I have many children and grandchildren at home. I really miss my hometown and can't adapt to life here on the grassland. I came out this time because someone asked me to. I had no choice but to make this trip. Otherwise, I would have been drinking tea and admiring the plum blossoms at home right now!"
After that, he asked again, "Your Highness, are you worried about the Khan's health? Don't worry, the Khan is almost well now. I will leave the packaged herbs for him to drink for another half month.
I will also explain clearly how to take care of him in the future, so that His Royal Highness will not worry."
