Chapter 103 Dragon Birthday Jade Pendant
A set sun hung in the sky to the west. The Thirteenth Prince Zhao Dexin rode on the horse without moving. He stopped and looked at the setting sun, and his figure seemed a little lonely.
"Hero is old! I wonder if the prince thinks what he said is right?" Bao Qing patted the horse's back and approached Zhao Dexin. The soldiers behind him all began to prepare to camp and stay overnight.
"It's some, I just regret it! With a moment of thought, I hurt my daughter, the princess, and the subordinates who have followed me for many years." Zhao Dexin said lightly.
"If I had known this, why should I have been there? It is said that you also harmed someone! It is your son." Bao Qing said hatefully.
Sure enough, the Thirteenth Prince trembled after hearing this and almost fell off the horse's back.
"Dog official! Who are you? You dare to disrespect our prince!" Hu Fei shouted with anger on his face, but was trapped by Zhang Long.
"Yes! It's all my fault. All the cause and effect are for me. Why do you hurt the innocent? Why?"
Although Bao Qing was a little suspicious of the whole matter, in his opinion, it was urgent to find a way to rescue Cao Yan first. Conspiracy was equivalent to a death sentence, and there was no need to sympathize with him. What Bao Qing wanted now was to break all the hopes of the thirteenth prince and make him give up completely.
Because when a person is discouraged, he will lose interest in everything. At that time, perhaps the Thirteenth Prince can really explain everything.
Bao Qing paused and continued, "I want to tell the prince a very unfortunate news that the princess is here!"
"What? The princess was captured by you? Where is she? I want to see her!" The Thirteenth Prince asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, she was imprisoned elsewhere. I forgot to tell you that your subordinate Hong Ba's son is also in my hands! I think, should the prince rethink it?" Bao Qing's voice was full of threats.
"What!" The Thirteenth Prince was a little surprised, but paused and suddenly burst into laughter: "Haha, it's better to catch it! Although you and Zhuang Lei are on the same journey, it's better to fall on your hands than to fall on the Zhuang Lei's hands."
If you are eager to achieve success in your work, it will indeed affect a person's judgment. Bao Qing regrets it a little and shouldn't have shown his trump card so quickly. Unexpectedly, Zhao Dexin did not compromise.
Bao Qing was a little impatient, and looked at the sunset light falling on Zhao Dexin, outlining a lonely and desolate figure.
What is that? Bao Qing saw something else in the robe of the Thirteenth Prince Zhao Dexin. If he hadn't looked so carefully, he wouldn't have seen it.
Bao Qing moved forward a little further and glanced down. A piece of brocade beard was exposed under Zhao Dexin's robe. It should be the brocade beard of a jade pendant. This style?
Bao Qing suddenly thought of the first time he saw Hong Ba when he went to Niu Ben Road in Bazhou. Hong Ba was wearing military uniform and was just a reckless man, and he even wore a jade pendant. Even when he was wearing armor, he never forgot to wear a jade pendant. The brocade beards falling from Hong Ba's jade pendant were exactly the same as the brocade beards on the thirteenth prince in front of him.
"Your Majesty, I have a heartless request. I have always liked to collect jade. You should have a jade pendant on your body. Can you borrow it and view it next?" Bao Qing asked.
"This!" The Thirteenth Prince was a little surprised, and was also a little surprised. He quietly pulled the robe down.
"I guess the prince's jade pendant should be a royal object. He has grown up so big that he has never seen what the royal pendant looks like. This way, the prince, there is no need to be too troublesome to lend the jade pendant that the prince wears to the next view." After Bao Qing finished speaking, he looked at the robe of the Thirteenth Prince.
The Thirteenth Prince had no choice but to slowly untie the jade pendant on his waist and hand it to Bao Qing.
Bao Qing played with it carefully and said on the excuse: "The sky is getting darker and I can't see clearly. Let's do this, I will give it back to the prince tomorrow."
That night, Bao Qing returned to the camp and asked Cao Yun to find an oil lamp and check it carefully.
This jade pendant was used by the royal prince, and it was indeed extraordinary. The jade body was crystal clear and transparent, with rainbow light lingering inside, with "Dragon Blessings" engraved on the front, and a patterned picture of a radiant on the back.
What surprised Bao Qing the most was that this jade pendant was somewhat different from the common shape. Although it was half-moon, the end of the jade pendant was obviously too small, as if the end of the jade pendant had been cut.
Bao Qing turned the jade pendant over and looked at the end of the jade pendant. Unexpectedly, there were patterns on the edge of the jade pendant. Bao Qing gently touched the bottom edge of the jade pendant with his hand, and there were indeed patterns.
"Brother Bao, what did you find?" Cao Yun asked hurriedly when he saw that Bao Qing seemed to have noticed something.
"The end edge of this jade pendant is actually carved with patterns. Have you ever seen such a jade pendant?" Bao Qing said, and touched the bottom of the pattern again.
"Brother Bao, what is your fingers stuck? Look!" Cao Yun said.
When Bao Qing heard this, he placed his finger that had touched the jade pendant near the oil lamp and looked carefully. He didn't know when it was stained with black powder on his fingers. The amount was too small, and if he hadn't been close and carefully looked at it, he wouldn't have seen it.
Bao Qing asked Cao Yun to take a piece of white silk, and blew several breaths of heat on the bottom of the jade pendant with his mouth, then pressed the jade pendant on the white silk, and a short dragon-shaped pattern appeared in front of Bao Qing and Cao Yun.
"It's indeed a seal. Look, the black powder just now is probably a red ink. But at night, we couldn't see clearly, and the color was mixed up." Bao Qing said thoughtfully.
"So that's it! But why does this pattern look like a dragon?" Cao Yun echoed.
"It's indeed a dragon. It seems that the Thirteenth Prince really wants to rebel. Even the jade pendant is in the style of a dragon. Otherwise, can a prince use the style of a dragon as a seal?" Bao Qing was a little surprised. He had doubted before. He had made a mistake. The Thirteenth Prince didn't look like a person who was going to rebel. But now it seems that the dragon's pattern style has been used, saying that he was not intending to rebel, and the genius believed it.
"Cao Yun, do you think the jade pendant on Hong Ba's body is the same? Maybe it's a pair. On that day, I saw a jade pendant hanging on Hong Ba's body. Although I don't know what it looks like, the style of the brocade beard of this jade pendant is exactly the same." Bao Qing couldn't help but say.
"Brother Bao means that this jade pendant of Hongba is exactly the same as that of the Thirteenth Prince? Or maybe it is the token given to Hongba by the Thirteenth Prince?" Cao Yun said.
"Token? That's right! Why aren't it sent to the token? Then why does Hong Ba use this token?" Bao Qing suddenly realized that this so-called token is the thing used to prove it by writing a letter?
Bao Qing was a little excited when he thought of this. It seemed that the jade pendant would have to be with him for a while.
"Brother Bao, I'll sleep with you tonight? I was so sleepy yesterday! So..." Cao Yun said gently.
Bao Qing was a little hesitant, but looking at Cao Yun's graceful and erect buttocks, he seemed unable to control himself. No matter what, it was caused by the oil lamp. Such a light was too blurry, and this little girl was too gentle.
Just as Bao Qing was mentally prepared, he blew out the oil lamp, and slowly hugged Cao Yun in his arms. Just as he was about to play for a while, the tent was suddenly lifted and someone broke in.
Bao Qing was startled and pulled out the short crossbow sent by Zhu Xiong from under the quilt and pointed it at the man.
"Sir, it's me! News from Zhang Long. Bazhou."
"If there is any news, you can't just break into the tent of the adults." Cao Yun was so angry that he was about to do a good thing, but this idiot came to make trouble, so of course he didn't give him a good look.
At this time, Zhang Long felt that it was inappropriate for him to come in, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Bao Qing felt relieved when he heard this. It was because he had a good habit of turning off the lights when he was sleeping with the woman, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
"What news, just say it!" Bao Qing also felt that Zhang Long came at the wrong time.
"There are two news. The two armies of the Thirteenth Prince, about 15,000 people, have already joined the Bazhou camp of Hongba. Zhuang Magistrate is missing. Wang Fakui's troops have lost more than half, and he led his troops to the direction of Baozhou." Zhang Long said.
"This is expected. Everyone who should come is here!" Although Bao Qing had known this would happen, he was still a little shocked!
"There is also news from the capital. Lord. What comes from the capital is just letter paper." Zhang Long handed the letter paper to Bao Qing and then withdrew from the tent.
"What news?" Cao Yun hurriedly got up and lit the oil lamp.
"Fast into the quilt, don't get frozen anymore, I'll tell you after seeing it!" Bao Qing smiled and pinched Cao Yun's buttocks.
When Bao Qing heard that it was from the capital and it was a letter paper, he knew that it must have been written by Dong Yanran. When Bao Qing opened it, he found that it was still in the beautiful simplified Chinese characters, but he could see that it was written very quickly. The words were written in a bit in a row, and there was a typo. Bao Qing couldn't help but smile.
It turned out that the letter said that the court had learned that the Thirteenth Prince had rebelled, and at the same time, Xia Shu's 10,000 imperial guards were on standby, and another 20,000 reinforcements were sent to join Xia Shu's 10,000 imperial guards. Dong Yanran and Bao Liuwen were very worried about Bao Qing and hoped that Bao Qing could return to Beijing as soon as possible. They had already managed to deal with the Thirteenth Prince and inquired from him. It is said that the ministers in the court were busy dealing with the Thirteenth Prince's rebellion and had long forgotten the important case of Bao Qing's charge.
Bao Qing knew that these nobles in the court did not forget the important case of the imperial life, but forgot the cannon fodder he stood before the attack. Nothing else, it was because he had no use value. Now the Thirteenth Prince's rebellion has been made public and no longer has to hide it. The court cannon fodder can justify it. Of course, like Zhuang Lei, no one cares about life and death, let alone Cao Yan, who was besieged by the Liao army.
Zhuang Lei may be fighting for the future with life and death, so Lu Yijian must have agreed to some benefits, otherwise, Zhuang Lei would not be so stupid.
