Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 132 Terrible new discovery!
But Li Shimin couldn't care less about these things.

My mind is full of new things about Wangyun Inn.

The old man followed behind, going from room to room.

After a long while, there was still nothing to be found.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore, please take a break, my waist can't bear it anymore."

"Your Majesty, I guess this courtyard is really as the housekeeper said. There is nothing inside. It was just built by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, and he puts it here for some peace and quiet."

"Yes, Your Highness, my eyes feel like they are dying, and my tears are about to run dry. Is there any water? I want to wash them."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'd better leave first. I still have some things to do at the Cheng Mansion."

"...."

Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and the other three were all a little overwhelmed.

Especially Cheng Yaojin, he still doesn't know what Li Shimin is looking for.

After all, he had never come here before, and had never seen the shock of private money with his own eyes, so he was a little worried.

Damn, if he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have come.

"No, General Cheng! You are still young and strong, why go back? Is your physical strength not as good as old guys like me? Let's deal with the things in the palace later."

As soon as Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, before Li Shimin could even open his mouth, Changsun Wuji grabbed him.

This is a strong man, we can't let him get away with it.

Now that you're here, you still want to run away?

What about dreaming?
"That's right. You were a general who had experienced many battles. You commanded many troops. You should focus on the important matters. The matters here are much more important than those in the Cheng Mansion. Stay here and don't go anywhere else."

Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui also controlled Cheng Yaojin and prevented him from escaping.

Cheng Yaojin:…….
He swallowed and suddenly regretted coming here.

Speechless!
Cheng Yaojin suddenly discovered that
If he continued like this, he probably wouldn't be able to make it, but seeing that the three people had blocked him and he couldn't leave, he could only stay, feeling helpless.

“I… … .”

Li Shimin looked at the room he had searched and let out a sigh of relief.

"Forget it, I guess the old housekeeper is right, there's really nothing here, let's go to Wangyun Inn."

Li Shimin said with great disappointment.

"But, speaking of which, where are Guanyin's maid, Xiao Sizi, and Changle?"

Li Shimin looked around but didn't see the three of them.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is with the two princesses in the stables at the back looking after the horses."

Li Junxian reported it immediately.

He remembered this very clearly because his main task was to protect Empress Changsun and Xiao Sizi, so naturally, knowing their whereabouts was his first priority.

Horse watching?

Li Shimin rolled his eyes. How idle are these three of them?

It seems that there is really nothing in this yard, let alone any private money.

Otherwise, how could little Sizi, a cute hyperactive boy and treasure-hunting beast, be so bored as to watch horses?

"Call them all over here. Let's go back to Wangyun Inn now."

Li Shimin waved his hand and gave orders.

Li Junxian took the order and went there quickly.

…….….…….…

stable.

Empress Changsun sat on the graphite and looked at the two children in front, who were playing with the foals there.

There are not many horses in this stable, only four big horses and two ponies.

This is also the only place in this yard that is somewhat popular.

The food and fodder all around looked fresh, and it must be the only place where servants were active.

Look at these six horses again. They have beautiful fur and extraordinary majesty. They can all be called good horses.

"Empress, His Majesty has called us to the Wangyun Inn."

Li Junxian hurried over and said with a fist.

"Your Majesty, have they finished their search?"

Empress Changsun asked curiously.

"Yes, I have looked almost everything over, but I didn't find anything. This place seems to be just a courtyard. The colored glaze I saw before might just be an accident, so Your Majesty and the others are going to Wangyun Inn."

Li Junxian reported.

Empress Changsun nodded slightly, stood up, and called to Princess Changle and Little Sizi, "Let's go, Changle, Little Sizi, your father is waiting for us."

"We have ponies in the palace, we can play with them when we get back."

"Okay, I got it, mother!" Little Sizi let go of the foal's neck and slid down from her back.

"But, mother, mother, I am very curious about why the horses in our palace are... that is to say, why are they different from my second brother's horses?"

Little Sizi trotted over and asked in confusion.

Different?
Empress Changsun patted her little head and said, "Little Sizi, what's the difference? You and your sister have ridden the ponies in our palace before, and they are no different from the others."

Princess Changle smiled and agreed, "Little Sizi, what your mother said is correct. They are indeed the same. The only difference is the hair."

"No no no!"

Little Sizi shook his head repeatedly. The little fellow was so anxious that he said anxiously, "It's not like that."

…….….…

"It's my second brother's pony. Their hooves are different from ours. The pony my second brother raises seems to have shiny things on its hooves. Look, those big horses have the same hooves!"

Little Sizi tilted his head back and said in confusion.

Something on the hoof?

Empress Changsun shook her head. What could be on the hoof?
Princess Changle was standing nearby, also smiling and not saying anything.

She didn't get too close just now. After all, she was too old to play with ponies, so she didn't see the shiny thing that Xiao Sizi was talking about.

Seeing that Empress Changsun and the others didn't believe him, Xiao Sizi became a little anxious.

He gritted his teeth, clenched his hands, and stamped his feet.

"Really, mother, Sizi, raise your hands. I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, go and see! They all have them!"

After that, Xiao Sizi's eyes flickered, and she fiddled with her skirt with her hands. She was a little embarrassed and said, "Mother, can you also give the little pony in the palace one when you go back? They look so good!"

"Little Sizi, how can you press something on a horse's hoof? You must have seen it wrong. You probably didn't sleep well last night, so this is the case."

Empress Changsun picked up little Sizi and was really defeated by her daughter's innocence.

Princess Changle said jokingly, "Little Sizi, a horse's feet are so cute, how can you put anything on them? Little Sizi, if I put something on your little feet, would you feel uncomfortable?"

Little Sizi pouted, almost crying, and looked a little depressed.

“But…but…”

“People really saw it.”

"You've seen it wrong." Empress Changsun said with a smile.

Horse hooves are so hard, what can be put on them? My daughter is really...
Empress Changsun continued walking forward holding little Sizi in her arms without stopping.

When I arrived at the front yard, I saw Li Shimin, Zhangsun Wuji and others waiting there.

"Your Majesty, have you finished your search?"

Empress Changsun asked with a smile.

Li Shimin sighed and replied, "I've finished searching. In conclusion, there's nothing in this yard, and it's really a bit desolate."

"Let's go and take a look at Wangyun Inn. I guess Master Qin has hidden all the good things near where he lives. There's really nothing outside." Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and was about to walk out.

"Hmm? Little Sizi, what's wrong? You're pouting so angrily. Who made our little cutie unhappy?"

Qin Changye used to call her Little Sizi "Little Cutie". Li Shimin thought it was strange at first, but in the long run, he felt that this name was indeed suitable for his precious daughter.

Even so, he didn't call it out, because he felt that this name was a bit disgusting.

After his recent experience at Wangyun Inn and the emergence of new things, Li Shimin is proud to learn from Qin Changye.

Calling someone a little cutie is just being sincere.

If it was a normal time, little Sizi would definitely be very happy to hear this title, but now she was angry, so she complained angrily: "Father! Mother and elder sister don't believe what Sizi said, they all think Sizi is a big liar."

"But, but, but, Sizi clearly saw that there were shiny things on the hooves of Second Brother's pony. There was no way he was mistaken."

Li Shimin was slightly stunned, and then was amused by the little rhinoceros.

"There's something shiny on a horse's hoof? How can you put something on a horse's hoof?"

Changsun Wuji at the side also laughed and said: "Yes, Your Highness Xiao Sizi, did you see it wrong, or did Xiao Ma step on something?"

Wei Zheng echoed, "A horse's hoof is like a human's foot. What can we put on our feet? Even a small thorn would make us feel so uncomfortable that we can't walk."

Du Ruhui shook his head and was also amused by Xiao Sizi's naivety.

Immediately, he said, "That's the truth, Your Highness Xiao Sizi, I think you have seen it wrong."

When little Sizi heard them not believing it, he pouted his lips.

angry!

Get angry!!

Little Sizi held his hands angrily.

Seeing this, everyone smiled and walked out happily.

Little Sizi tilted his head in Empress Changsun's arms and thought for a while.

Suddenly, she said, "But... feet can't be put on anything. We... we can put shoes on our feet. I'm sure it's the same with foals."

As soon as these words came out.

Li Shimin's steps suddenly paused.

Beside him, Cheng Yaojin's eyes suddenly shook.

He also looked at Xiao Sizi in disbelief.

Zhangsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and others turned around suddenly. Their originally smiling faces were frozen into balls of terror, exploding in an extraordinary and terrifying way.

This statement…….
They never thought that the light in their eyes was flashing wildly, a little crazy!
Shocked!

It dawned on me!

Yes!

People can wear shoes, so can horses?
A word to wake up the dreamer!

Li Shimin's face looked a little solemn. He looked deeply at Xiao Sizi, then walked quickly towards the stable.

He had never thought about what Xiao Sizi said.

To be honest, the question of putting shoes on a war horse is too outrageous.

but!

Little Sizi was arguing with himself, saying that he saw something shiny on the horse's hoof.

Moreover, this is Wangyun Inn, where many miracles happened!
Wangyun Inn has created so many miracles, and Xiao Sizi has also created so many miracles!

Li Shimin knew that he had to go and see it in person before he could really put his obsession to rest!

Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Cheng Yaojin and Du Ruhui hurried to follow.

The pace is hurried.

In a panic.

"Hey! Mother, where are father and the others doing?"

The fourth child said doubtfully in his arms, didn't the emperor and the others not believe what I said just now?

Empress Changsun's eyes were somewhat solemn.

She gently rubbed Xiao Sizi's head.

"Little Sizi is right. He is so smart that he can even think of putting shoes on the horse."

"Didn't little Sizi just say that he saw something shiny under the pony's feet? Your father and his family went to check it out with their own eyes. Let's go and take a look too."

After listening to what Empress Changsun said, Little Sizi understood it all at once, and jumped out of Empress Changsun's arms after struggling.

"Hehehe, Father believes what I said. Mother, you see, Sizi didn't lie! Sizi is not a big liar!"

The depressed look on Xiao Sizi's face just now disappeared without a trace in an instant.

She hurriedly ran towards the stable with her short legs.

"Little Sizi, be careful!!"

Empress Changsun and Princess Changle hurriedly followed.

The old man frowned slightly behind him, looking at the direction where Li Shimin and others disappeared, speechless.

Just now, he was quite far away and did not hear clearly the conversation between Xiao Sizi and Li Shimin.

But looking at the expressions of His Majesty and the others, it seems that they have found something good again.

Oh my god.

"Really? Your Highness, your little sister is causing trouble for you again. Another treasure is going to be snatched away."

"Why are there treasures everywhere? Your Highness, your private money should be hidden carefully."

The old man sighed softly, feeling quite helpless.

He quickly followed.

He was also curious about what could make His Majesty and the others so solemn this time.

When His Highness left, he didn't tell him that there were good things in this yard.

Aren’t there just those few horses?
….….…….……

stable.

Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and a group of people surrounded the stable, their eyes wide open, staring at the hooves of the horses.

"Go, show the horse's hoof."

Li Shimin ordered.

Somewhat impatient.

To be honest, this idea really gave him a kind of epiphany.

Horseshoe!

It can be said to be the most important part of a horse. Whether it is a war horse or an ordinary horse, they all rely on the horseshoe.

If a horse's hoof is broken, the horse can be said to be useless.

Whether it is for combat or transporting goods, it has lost its value.

Horse hooves are so important, but the Tang Dynasty did not have any way to protect them. Every year, many horses were eliminated because of their hooves.

Not to mention other things, just taking the war horses as an example, almost all of the war horses lost every year are due to horse hooves.

There is no way. Although horse hooves are very hard, no matter how hard they are, if they are not protected, they will crack, or suffer varying degrees of severe grinding.

After that, the warhorse will lose nearly 90% of its value.

A war horse that cannot run is no longer a war horse.

The military tried every possible means but was unable to solve the problem of the horseshoes.
