Chapter 23 The mysterious Xiaobai

The word "Qianlong" immediately made Xia Tian think of the Qianlong Club.

There was a hint of curiosity in the corner of his mouth: "It's really lively tonight!"

"Old ghost, take good care of your injuries, and don't miss the battle at Tiger Mountain!"

"yes!"

"Let's go and have a look!"

"yes!"

Lu Shu and Gao Fei quickly accompanied their prince.

The entrance to Wubao.

A woman masked in white gauze stood proudly, it was the mysterious woman who appeared in the pine forest.

Behind her, followed a group of half-grown children, most of whom were around fourteen or fifteen years old. They were all sallow and thin, and wore thin clothes. They were carrying a large package on their backs. Their faces were black and blue from the cold, and their whole bodies were shaking.

On the wall of Wubao.

Xia Tian's eyes lit up: "Is it you?"

The masked woman didn't say anything, she stretched out her jade finger and flicked it lightly.

"Whoosh..."

A golden light fell into Xia Tian's hand. It was a golden token with a golden dragon soaring in the clouds and mist engraved on it. Next to it were three words: "Hidden Dragon Order!"

Then.

The masked woman's figure flashed and disappeared, leaving behind words: "Prince Huang, I have been entrusted by others to bring these children to you!"

"The mountains are high and the roads are far, see you in the Wilderness State!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the graceful figure of the masked woman disappeared.

Xia Tian's eyes were full of regret, and he murmured: "If I can't get to Dahuang State, I won't be able to see you!"

"Why are you betting on whether I can make it to the Wilderness State alive?"

"Are you from the Qianlong Club?"

The wind is howling and there is no answer.

"What will Qianlong send these teenagers for?"

The wind was speechless.

At this time.

Xiaobai approached Xia Tian, ​​bowed and handed over a book: "Your Majesty, this is the list of orphans of the Qianlong Society. It contains the information of this group of orphans of the Qianlong Society. We called people according to the list and asked about their origin information. The answer is no.

The one who comes up is the spy who was planted in!"

"However, these people have lived together since childhood. If any outsiders sneak in, they will find out."

Xia Tian took over the Qianlong Club's roster and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Xiao Bai, so you are also a member of the Qianlong Club?"

Xiaobai shook his head seriously: "No!"

"However, I am the eldest princess, and I enter the palace just to serve the prince!"

"But, I am not a member of the Qianlong Club!"

"I just know some things about the Qianlong Club."

"The eldest princess also asked me to pass on some information."

The eldest princess Xiaobai mentioned refers to Concubine Qin, the mother of Xia Tian, ​​and the eldest princess of the previous dynasty.

Xia Tian glanced at Xiaobai's legs: "In order to serve me, I asked you to cut off your descendants and become a eunuch in the palace?"

"This is too cruel!"

"Hehehe..."

Xiaobai covered his mouth and smiled: "Your Majesty, there are some things that Xiaobai is willing to do."

This smile is somewhat charming.

The little white face has no beard and no Adam's apple. Her smile is like that of a cute and naughty girl.

Throughout the dynasties, there were two types of eunuchs in the palace: one was castrated when they entered the palace when they were still underdeveloped, and would not grow beards or Adam's apples.

The second type is eunuchs who are castrated after development and will have obvious Adam's apple.

Calculated from the age at which Xiaobai entered the palace, it falls into the first situation.

Xia Tian took a look at Xiaobai's "barren" breasts. They were still very flat and had no feminine features, so she felt relieved.

"Xiao Bai, is it the arrangement of my mother and concubine for you to follow me?"

Xiao Bai still shook his head: "No, the princess and I have some agreements, so we don't have to follow the prince to the Great Wilderness State."

"So, I follow the prince willingly."

Xia Tian's mood improved a lot, and he asked insinuatingly: "You can bargain with my mother and concubine. Your status is very unusual, right?"

Xiaobai smiled mysteriously, showing two tiger teeth, and changed the subject: "Your Majesty, let's start accepting the orphans of the Qianlong Club!"

Xia Tian did not press the question: "Who is that mysterious masked woman?"

Xiaobai shook his head: "I don't know!"

"I just know that someone on the road will send a group of orphans from the Qianlong Society to follow the prince to the wilderness to contribute to the prince's palace in Huangzhou."

Xia Tian is very curious: "Xiao Bai, who exactly are there in the Qianlong Club?"

Xiaobai thought for a while: "As far as I know, the people in the Qianlong Club are very mysterious. Some masters accumulate strength in the mountains and wilderness, and there are also masters who recruit people into the society in the market."

"The parents of these orphans under the city wall are the backbone of the Qianlong Society. Their enmity with the Great Xia court is as deep as the sea. It is most suitable for them to be trained by the prince as their team!"

"Because, except for the prince, they have no one to rely on!"

"Only the prince can protect them!"

Xia Tian said in a deep voice: "Lu Shu, open the fort door and check one by one. You must be careful and you must not sneak in any spies."

"yes!"

"Xiao Bai, please go and check it out!"

"yes!"

Lu Shu calmly took the roster and went with Xiaobai to the gate of the fort to collect people.

Lu Shu and Gao Fei were not surprised that Xia Tian was the young master of the Qianlong Club!

Because the legend that Concubine Qin is the leader of the Qianlong Society has always been spread among the government and the public.

Now, it's just a matter of sitting down.

For them, the more power their prince has in his hands, the higher their chance of survival.

So, this is a great thing.

As for whether the Qianlong Club was against the Great Xia court?

Does that matter?

Now, they are also the people who must be killed by the prince. If the prince ascends the throne, if they want to survive, they will also rebel against the Daxia court.

At this time.

Gao Fei looked at the young men under the city wall who were wearing thin clothes and shivering from the cold. He said with a puzzled expression: "Your Majesty, after looking at it for a long time, I feel that Qianlong will send these young people here for a different purpose."

"oh?"

Xia Tian asked with some surprise: "Then my tall commander, why do you think Qianlong would send these teenagers here?"

A gleam of wisdom flashed in Gao Fei's eyes, and his tone was firm: "My lord, look at these young men, all of them are sallow and thin, and their clothes are in tatters. They don't even have cotton clothes to wrap themselves around. They must not have enough to eat or wear warm clothes on weekdays."

"So, I think the reason why Qianlong will send these young people here is because they are poor!"

"They can't afford it!"

"As the saying goes, a half-grown man will live in poverty!"

"So, the Qianlong Society will dump these losers on the prince!"

"Well, that must be the case."

Gao Fei praised his intelligence.

"Cough cough cough..."

Is this reason very strong? Xia Tian was caught off guard and almost lost his breath. He coughed a few times: "You guessed wrong!"

"Look at the bulging packages behind these young men. They are large and light. If I guess correctly, they contain cotton clothes!"

At this time.

The entrance to Wubao.

Lu Shu pointed to the package of the leading boy and asked, "What's in this?"

The leading boy's tone was cold: "Cotton coat!"

Lu Shu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the leading boy up and down, with a look of sudden realization in his eyes: "So that's it!"

"Ximen Ding!"

"arrive!"

"Where are you from?"

"Imperial Capital!"

"What's your father's name?"

"Ximen Daqing!"

...

Xiaobai smiled lightly: "I know him, he is Ximen Ding!"

Lu Shu nodded: "Yes!"

On the wall of Wubao City.

Gao Fei looked puzzled: "Your Majesty, these young men are obviously shivering from the cold, why don't they wear cotton-padded clothes?"
