Chapter 26

C26 – Tell Me Your Name

In the room on the opposite side, Teng Yu was eating his meal leisurely. On the table, there was only a simple meat dish, if people who were familiar with him were to see it, they would probably think that the sun was rising from the west.

It had to be known that the Third Prince’s extravagance was famous in the capital. If one did not drink good tea or drink good wine, if one did not eat delicacies, if one did not sleep, they did not sleep.

After closing the door, Han Qing returned back to the table and stood there. He waited until Teng Yu put down the tableware before saying: “Master, it’s that pair of master and servant we met in the teahouse.”

Teng Yu wiped his mouth with the silk handkerchief, but did not express any objections. Although he had never seen anyone before, he still remembered their voices, hence he recognized them.

He got up and walked to the bedside, and Han Qing automatically went over to help him spread his clothes.

There was a brazier in the room, and the shoddy coals were smoking, but at least it warmed up the room.

Teng Yu leaned on the bed, deep in thought, as images of the Loong’an Temple flashed through his mind. Especially the lifelike face of the Empress Liu, it stirred his heart that had been dormant for many years.

“First, let’s go find the person Mo Hanshan wanted. Since things have reached such a stage, how can we be satisfied if we don’t try?”

“Yes.”

“Send a message to tell Han Sen to hurry up. I want to see them before sunset.”

“I just received a message from a pigeon. They have already arrived at An County. They will arrive at He County in less than half a day.”

“Right.”

He pinched the center of his brows, and waved his hand tiredly. “Go and rest, there’s still a battle to be fought, if you don’t have enough energy, how can you contend with a tiger?”

Han Qing knew that he was talking about the First Prince and retorted with a straight face, “The First Prince is at most just a fox.”

After Teng Yu heard this, his mood became slightly better, and he joked: “Don’t underestimate that big brother emperor, he was taught personally by the Royal Father, he has no lack of strategies or literatures, it’s just that he has been dazzled by power and greed for years, and has looked down on everyone.”

In truth, it was also Emperor Dechang’s fault for changing his face too early. The First Prince’s sense of accomplishment from having a “many years of marriage” was naturally inferior to his previous hard work in all aspects. In addition, he had been flattered over the years, it was hard not to be proud.

One had to know that adversity was the most tempering situation!

“Your Highness, about the First Prince’s plot at the Liu State, do we really not know how to make a sound?”

“What does Huo Family have to do with this hall?” Teng Yu shook his head.

“But ...” If Marshal Huo knew that the First Prince was intentionally targeting him, perhaps he would be able to fall down without us having to do anything. “

“How can something that hasn’t happened convince people? Rather than being a good person halfway through, it would be better to let Huo Family find out for themselves after the incident comes up. Furthermore, Huo Family is too famous, so it would be good to borrow the First Prince’s hand to kill them. “

“Understood.”

“Yi, this formation ...” Don’t tell me that some big shot is here for the auspicious sign? “

“Pui!” We still have to see who’s here! “

The two of them looked at each other and immediately straightened their back. When the convoy approached, they raised their spears and roared: “Who are you? With the First Prince here, let’s take a detour! “

A loud laugh could be heard as eight strong guards carried a large sedan chair to the front. One of the guards bent down to open the curtain, respectfully saying, “Your Highness, we have arrived.”

When the two guards saw the person in the palanquin, their eyes lit up, and for a moment, they were dazzled by it.

He saw that the interior of the palanquin was extremely luxurious, and a faint fragrance drifted out. A man dressed in black clothes lazily leaned on the palanquin, and on his left and right sat two beautiful female servants, patting his shoulders and rubbing his legs, very happy.

This was not the main point, what really stunned the two of them was the man’s appearance. They had thought that the First Prince and the other young masters were already dragons and phoenixes among the people, but they had never imagined that this man would be even more handsome.

“How dare you!” Seeing that the two of them were staring straight at their master, Han Qing waved his right hand, and two streams of Spirit Qi struck the two people’s chest.

“Pfft!” The two guards were sent flying a few meters back before falling to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

This unforeseen event happened too quickly. The rest of the soldiers rushed over from the camp and surrounded the caravan in the blink of an eye. Each of them held onto their spears, waiting for the order from the leader to capture these intruders.

“What big guts! Third Prince is here, are all of you brainless? “

Upon hearing that it was Third Prince, the surrounding people felt their legs go soft. This His Highness The Prince was infamous for his viciousness, and it was said that the people who attacked him did not even have a good ending.

Everyone looked at each other. Finally, their gazes locked onto the leader, waiting for him to give out his command.

The leader could not avoid it and walked forward to pay his respects. With a harsh tone, he said: “I did not know that Third Prince would be here, I was blind, please forgive me!”

Teng Yu ate a mouthful of fruit fed to him by a maid, and lazily said: “Who’s name is, state your name!”

“...” This lowly general here is the General of Liu State, General Kou Zhongming. ” Kou Zhongming replied with a fire in his chest.

An and He counties were both under the jurisdiction of the Liu State, and Teng Yu’s external clan was called the Liu State. Originally, the Liu State should have been under his control, but unfortunately, after the defeat of his Liu Family, most of the large and small officials were replaced, and the situation had long since changed.

And this Kou Zhongming was a newly promoted member of the Yun Family Faction, so he was very perfunctory towards Third Prince.

What kind of people had Teng Yu not seen in the past few years? If he was angry at such treatment, then he would have long since been furious.

He helped the maid down from the palanquin and walked step by step in front of Kou Zhongming. He said with a slant of his eyes, “So it’s Lieutenant Kou, it’s been a long time ... I wonder if royal brother is doing well? “

“Your body is in good health, of course it’s fine!”

“That’s good, we can also save Royal Father the worry of staying in the palace day and night.” Teng Yu magnanimously nodded his head and said, “I heard that Big Brother is praying for the Royal Father. I just happened to pass by here, so no matter what, I should come and greet you.”

Ignoring Kou Zhongming’s sudden change in expression, Teng Yu immediately pushed him away and walked inside. The soldiers blocking in front of him did not dare to stop him, as they all retreated to the sides.
