Chapter 42 Almost Got Punished Again

The frightened Li Chengqian got off the horse and turned his head to look at His Majesty Li Er and a group of old killers who were walking over. After a long time of struggling, he decided not to pursue who was just now.

"Boy, the riding skills are good, and it didn't fall off like this." Demon Cheng was still so unruly and walked over and patted Li Chengqian's shoulder with his bear paw.

"Thank you Uncle Cheng for your compliment!" Although he knew that Demon Cheng had not used his strength, Li Chengqian still felt that half of his body was numb.

"Boy, what is under your horse's hooves?" Yuchi Laomo and Cheng Yaojin had the same virtue, but Old Cheng was pretending, he was real.

Li Chengqian was stunned by Yuchi Gong's words and turned his head to look at it: "There is nothing."

The old guy Yuchi Gong simply didn't talk nonsense with Li Chengqian. He went directly over to him, came to his pony, bent down and competed gently.

The poor little horse was lifted upside down by the old Yuchi Sima's hooves, and the four hooves nailed with semicircular iron sheets also lit up.

He raised it to Li Chengqian and compared it for a while. Old Yuchi found that it seemed that Li Chengqian was not tall enough, so he had to put the horse on the ground and press it down, ignoring the horse's neighing, and then pointed to the semi-circular iron piece and asked, "What is this?"

"Horse-shoe!" Li Chengqian was a little puzzled. Everyone knows what you want to ask about.

"What is a horseshoe? Boy, it's hard to get a war horse, don't bother it." Yuchi let go of the pony, watched it run away without a shadow, looked at Li Chengqian with contempt, turned his head and walked back, and finally sighed.

"Hey, hey, my horse!" Seeing the horse run away, Li Chengqian jumped in a hurry and searched all over the harem before finding an obedient little mare. He was scared away by Yuchi Gong.

And what was the attitude of the old guy just now? He was despised? Disappointed? Well, the country bumpkin! He was so embarrassed to be a general if he didn’t recognize the horseshoe?

In the end, Old Cheng was very happy. He squatted in front of Li Chengqian and said in a low voice: "Boy, the war horse is our best comrade. On the battlefield, it is your closest companion, so treat them well."

"No, I..." Li Chengqian still has a good impression of Lao Cheng. Although he often bullies himself, he has no bad intentions. He just like an uncle next door teases his children, but his way is a bit special.

Then, Lao Cheng didn't give Li Chengqian a chance to speak, and then said, "Besides, you guys, what's the point of riding a little mare?"

The two sentences that were completely inconsistent with each other made Li Chengqian confused and was so angry that he couldn't react for a long time.

What's wrong with riding a little mare? I'm only 8 years old and not as tall as a horse's legs. I really think I'm the slim and slim thing in your house. I'm sucked into a gourd and rolled down. I still jumped around when I got down.

No matter how much he complained, His Majesty Li Er said next, he would have been killed: "The prince is inappropriate in behavior, harming creatures..., and punishing..."

"Father, my son has something to say!" Seeing that the old man's verbal order was about to come down, Li Chengqian dared not be negligent, so he quickly followed the previous sentence.

"What else do you have to say?" His Majesty Li Er asked in a deep voice with a face dark face.

This little bastard is too troublesome. Even if the horse has to make trouble, can't he go back to Lanruo Temple? He has to run outside to make trouble.

Now the court officials saw it, how to protect him.

Looking at Lao Li's face, Li Chengqian was also confused. What is the 203 or 302 hole in Mogao Grottoes? Isn't there a picture of the nail horseshoe from Kaihuang for 4 years?

Logically speaking, the Tang Dynasty should have horseshoes now, but why did not a single civil and military official in the dynasty know him and even punish him? Is the information from later generations wrong?

But now is not the time to worry about this, and the emperor is still waiting for him to reply.

"Father, my son-in-law thinks that iron is more wear-resistant than the cuticle of horseshoes, so he nails iron sheets on horseshoes. This can increase wear resistance and protect the integrity of horseshoes on rough roads."

"This..." Li Chengqian's theory undoubtedly posed a problem for everyone, because no one knew whether what he was saying was true or not. Even Li Jing, who was later rated as the God of War, shook his head with his beard.

"How did you know?" His Majesty Li Er asked when he saw that it was difficult for everyone to make a judgment.

"The horse's hooves are worn out, so you'll know naturally." Since no one in the Tang Dynasty knew about horse's hooves, Li Chengqian would not foolishly talk about the Mogao Grottoes. It was a rumor from later generations. I was afraid that the consequences would be unpredictable, so it would be better to say that it was invented by himself.

As for the fact that someone really discovered that there was this mural in Mogao Grottoes in the future, at worst, they would say that they had a sudden inspiration and used the accident and inevitability of history to teach these illiterate people another lesson.

"Your Majesty, I think you can try it. If what the prince said is true, it will be beneficial to our Tang Dynasty without any harm." The mature and stern Li Jing first made a suggestion.

"The prince has something ready, so why don't you try?" Old Yuchi, who scared the horse away, jumped out again.

"Run!" Li Chengqian pointed helplessly at the direction where his pony escaped.

"Just catch it, there is only that little mare in the camp, very conspicuous." Old Yuchi said carelessly, completely ignoring Li Chengqian's dark face.

Isn’t I just riding a little mare? Isn’t it safe to be the first, and I don’t know that the camp will be full of shouts.

But Yuchi Gong was right. The order was not long after it was passed, and the little mare was brought back. Because the foolish guy didn't run far away at all, he ran out about a mile. Seeing that no one was chasing it, he stopped and was picked up by the sentry outside.

There is no shortage of rocks on the Dragon Shouyuan. Apart from some flat sites, there are rugged mountains and fields everywhere.

Naturally, Li Chengqian cannot be allowed to go. He is the prince, so it is hard to explain if he bumps into it.

So the oldest Cheng Chuliang was assigned this task by Comrade Cheng, and rode the little mare with a very disdainful attitude, riding a mule like a bear, rushing into the wilderness like a wild donkey with a riding reins.

It took about a quarter of an hour to run, but the poor little mare finally returned to Li Chengqian. The poor guy was already walking and swaying by Cheng Chuliang, and he saw that he was riding in a difficult position.

"Your Majesty, I think horseshoes are indeed useful." Yuchi Gong once again checked the little mare's hooves by storing the hooves of four horses and bowed to Li Er.

"Well. What do you think, my dear friends?" His Majesty Li Er nodded and asked.

Seeing Cheng Chuliang's wild performance in the wilderness of riding a pony in the wilderness, the Tang generals who had been through the battle formations all understood that if they were ordinary horses, they would have been lame now, and the little mare with horses with horseshoes could not stand apart except being tired, and there seemed to be no other problem.

"Your Majesty, I first discovered that the prince's horse hooves sounded differently. I should first equip my right martial guards." Everyone present could see the advantages of the horse hooves, and Yuchi Gong could naturally see that he had the merit of supporting the changes in the Xuanwu Gate, and he started to grab the benefits without hesitation.

Thank you for your recommendation!
