He persuaded the Empress to go out of the city to see a group of elephant soldiers, but Ren Baqian was taught a lesson. This made him realize that the people in this world are different from those on earth, and their reactions to things are also different.

Then these elephant soldiers were sent to Izumo Kingdom to test how powerful they could exert on the battlefield.

After the elephant soldier left, he robbed the lanterns. Last time, Ren Baqian was threatened and tempted by the empress to play as a contestant. Then he shook his cleverness and earned a lot of shoes.

This time, they accompanied the empress on the sidelines throughout the whole time. Almost all the two of them were whispering, but they sprinkled a wave of dog food.

Two days after the lantern grabbing party, it is another very important thing.

The team that transported the trophy and prisoners back from Yun Kingdom finally arrived.

Nearly 100,000 prisoners of war, as well as three hundred trophys filled with gold, silver, jade, and gems, and nearly a thousand ox and horse carriages filled with salt.

Originally, there were more than 100,000 people, but thousands of people died in public because they wanted to escape, or were injured or other reasons. In the end, only 96,400 people arrived.

The integer number 96,400 is reported, which is actually a little more, because you cannot have too high expectations for the statistical ability of ancient militias, which were originally ordinary people. The militias transported easily omitted the numbers from thousands of digits later.

As for the few dozen people missing, there is no concept of numbers at this level in their minds.

This team consists of militia, spoils and prisoners, winding for hundreds of miles. The ox cart carrying spoils in front of the team arrives outside Lancheng at noon, and the tail end of the team will not arrive until noon on the third day.

It is naturally impossible for 100,000 people to be sent to Lancheng for the Empress, the officials and the people of Lancheng to see. Logically speaking, it should be to select a group of prisoners with the highest status to send them to the city to parade, which is the so-called offering of prisoners.

For example, the dozens of city lords who were captured, such as the military generals who were captured.

Unfortunately, Zi Donglai had no such thought at all. He killed dozens of city lords and officials in the city. He almost killed them cleanly. Those gentry who wanted to resist were also killed. The honest and obedient gentry and some grassroots officials were left in the original city to maintain order.

In the end, among these prisoners, the highest identities were only a few captains of the city lord army and the head of a small sect, and several wealthy businessmen were sent into the city as representatives of prisoners. It was really not a big deal.

When each of them was strong, with a vigorous face, but with a hint of tired militia escorted hundreds of carriages filled with spoils into the city, the whole city of Lan was boiling.

Both sides of Jingyang Street were filled with people coming from hearing the news, and even the shops on both sides of the road and the open windows on the second floor were crowded with people. They immediately cheered when they saw the queue.

The militia looked at the crowd on both sides and heard the cheers from both sides. They all looked excited. The hard work along the way felt worthwhile when they saw it.

And they also knew in their hearts that what they received was the cheers of the soldiers who should have belonged to the Northeast Protectorate.

The ox cart in the front was stacked together in boxes, and the heavy ox cart was crushed on the stone road and made a squeaking sound.

Even if the box is not opened, the onlookers can figure out what is in the box. The pictures of the box filled with gold, silver and treasures appearing in their minds.

The facts are just as they thought.

The more than 100 cars in front were filled with gold and silver. Each car had a box and loaded 600 kilograms of gold and silver. The hundred cars had 600 kilograms of gold and silver. Most of them were silver, and a few gold, worth one million taels of silver.

However, there are some jewelry that can actually be more than twice as valuable.

After these hundred carriages, there were those carriages filled with gold and silver utensils, calligraphy and paintings, and all the valuable items. There were 200 carriages, lifting the cloth on the carriage, revealing the golden color below. Many things were piled up in a mess, giving people a feeling of great value.

Two hundred cars took an hour to pass the crowd, and the cheers during this period were even louder than before.

After passing through the crowd, there were more than a dozen prisoners tied with their hands, ragged clothes and haggard faces.

They all lowered their heads and staggered forward with their weak bodies. Compared with the tall, strong and fierce ancient people on both sides, they were like trembling quails.

"Who are they?" At this time, the people stopped cheering, staring at the prisoners and asking around.

"It seems like a prisoner!"

"Bow them to death!" someone shouted immediately.

"I'm going to give it to Your Majesty if you beat me to death. I'll give you to Your Majesty after I beat me to death?" someone next to me cursed angrily.

"Uh, that's good!" The man immediately said with great interest. It's worth it to take this opportunity to meet His Majesty!

"It is impossible to give it to Your Majesty. It is impossible in this life. You will be taken back and whipped thirty whips! Don't worry, we will be very gentle!" The staff of the Public Security Department who was maintaining the situation immediately said sinisterly.

Thinking about the whip with barbed whip in the Public Security Department, everyone immediately withered.

The ancient people have a strong custom. Few people in Lancheng have never been whipped. Many of them have entered the palace for the second and third places. They have to lie down for several days if they whip three times. When they whip three times, they will lose their lives.

Ren Baqian was wearing an official robe and stood above the gate of the imperial city with the empress and others.

The square in front of the palace below was filled with horse-drawn carriages.

"We have seen Your Majesty! Your Majesty is mighty!" The militia below cheered when he saw the empress appearing on the wall.

These people couldn't think of anything, "Your Majesty has achieved martial ethics and will be loved by the people for thousands of years, and will unify the world!" After saying that, his stomach was overturned and he only shouted "Your Majesty is mighty!", but the atmosphere was extremely warm.

These militias all came from other cities, and 99% of them had never seen the empress. When they saw the empress, they were all full of excitement. This trip was really worth it.

"Good job!" The empress said lightly at the top of the city, her voice was plain and her voice spread throughout the audience.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Such a plain sentence made these people feel as if they were given the greatest praise.

"Present!" With a shout, everyone opened the boxes on the carriage, and a dazzling gold and silver light immediately reflected on the carriage.

Tuwan and others in the Ministry of Revenue were all happy. Three hundred cars of gold and silver were worth at least millions of taels of silver. This batch of gold and silver was added to the national treasury, and the financial situation was finally better.

Tong Zhenye, Qin Chuan and others also touched the notes in their arms with joy, which were filled with the money they needed to spend.
Chapter completed!
