Chapter 465: Avalanche
The days of King Chen's Mansion became more and more calm as Qingyun's body became heavier and calmer.
On a quiet day, Qingyun learned one thing, that is, to watch the folds.
Knowing that Qingyun was bored, Chu Bei moved the music fold to the inner room, while watching the music fold, and occasionally when he rested, he would talk to her, and sometimes ask her.
Qingyun is virtuous, looking at the twists and turns of the hill, Chu Bei sat for a long time, and he couldn't bear it, so he took the folds and helped watch it.
At first, it was just to help separate the recitals, and sometimes several ministers would write recitals to express their opinions, such as which minister to impeach, and the Imperial Historical Observatory could send seven or eight points of recitals, sandwiched in a bunch of recitals, and sometimes read something else, took a copy, and impeached it.
Qingyun glanced at it twice, and helped to separate, so that Chu Bei could handle it much faster when he saw the twists and turns.
The difference was very fast, and Qingyun was bored sitting on the sidelines, so she took the fold and helped me watch it.
She is not a pure ancient lady, she can also say a few words about these major events in the court, such as building a river, digging a canal to divert water, and helping to come up with a lot of ideas.
Especially in the places where there will be floods and floods every summer, Qingyun is even more concerned, she smiled, "These places, there will be floods in seven or eight years in ten years, and the harvest of those grains planted is sometimes less than thirty percent, and it is not a way to rely on the imperial court for disaster relief every year, I think it is better to directly exempt the taxes here next year, let every household, give a month's labor, let the Ministry of Industry issue a charter, and start digging a water diversion channel at the beginning of spring, although it can not alleviate all the disasters, it is better to improve the harvest." ”
Chu Bei stretched out his hand and took the fold handed to him by Qingyun, he said, "Hongshan County, I remember that my father asked the Ministry of Industry to dig a channel two years ago, but then I don't know what happened, so I won't do it, I'll ask when I go back." ”
Where Qingyun has been related, Chubei attaches great importance to it.
As soon as he attaches great importance to it, the Ministry of Industry will pay more attention to it, this is the future prince, when the emperor, when he first ascended the throne, he always made extra efforts to govern the country, in order to be able to leave a name in history, and later generations called a statement of king, and later, he was accustomed to the taste of being an emperor, and he didn't care about the eyes of future generations to look at him, and he had fun in time, so he came to the list of faint kings.
King Chen is not the emperor now, but he is only in charge of the country, so he has to make a name for himself, he attaches so much importance to it, if the Ministry of Industry dares to be sloppy, maybe King Chen will take the authority of the Ministry of Industry.
Almost the day after the order was issued, the Ministry of Industry sent the water conservancy information of Hongshan County over the years to the Chenwang Mansion.
Chu Bei didn't have much time to look at this, it was all Qingyun studying.
Two years ago, the emperor did ask the Ministry of Industry to organize people to dig channels in Hongshan County, but Hongshan County is full of mountains and rocks, and it is extremely laborious to excavate, and the money given by the imperial court is not enough to support the consumption, so the work is stopped, and it is planned to wait for the treasury to be abundant tomorrow, and then allocate a little more to Hongshan County.
When Qingyun saw this, she had a thought in her mind, "The stone is blocked, can't it be exploded?" ”
Chu Bei looked at her and asked, "How to blow it up?" ”
Qingying was on the side, and her mouth said quickly, "Fried in oil?" ”
Forgive her, fry something, she's only heard of using oil.
Qingyun, "......." ”
Qingyun explained to Chu Bei what a bomb was, Chu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he asked excitedly, "Is there really such a thing?" ”
Qingyun rolled her eyes slightly, "What did I lie to you about?" ”
Thinking of the purpose of the bomb, Qingyun felt that she was stupid, she didn't think of using the bomb for war!
It's just that she doesn't know much about bombs, she only knows how to make them with saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal, and she also knows the approximate proportions, but she doesn't know how to make them.
However, that's it, it's enough for Chu Bei to be excited.
He looked at Qingyun and asked, "Where did you get the gunpowder?" ”
Qingyun was most afraid that Chu Bei would ask this, but she had a way to fool the past, she said, "Explosives, naturally, are recorded in medical books, when a doctor was refining pills, there was a mistake, and a room was blown up, named explosives, and the power is endless, because I am afraid that it will be recorded in the medical books, it will be used by people with intentions and endanger others, so it is not recorded in detail, and I am worried that it will not be transmitted, so the main part is recorded for people to study." ”
Qingyun explained it this way, Chu Bei did not doubt him.
He had already decided to have someone develop explosives.
It is possible to use explosives to dig channels, but now that there is a war, even if there are explosives, they must be used at the border, so I asked Qingyun if there is any other way.
Qingyun thought for a while and said, "I still know a way, that is, a boulder, first burned with fire, and then poured with cold water, it will become very fragile, and it will break if you knock it lightly, and it should be used to dig a channel." ”
Chu Bei was surprised, he didn't know that this could make the stone fragile.
The explosives weren't visible for a while, but he could still do it by burning the stones, and he wanted to see if it was real.
Chu Bei ordered to go down, and soon, a few secret guards carried a big stone into the courtyard, and brought a lot of dry firewood from the kitchen and lit a fire.
When the wood was almost finished, several buckets of cold water were poured down, and a puff of smoke rose up.
Wei Lu took the hammer over, moved his wrist, and smashed it down with three points of strength.
There was a click.
A large stone was torn apart in an instant under the hammer.
Wei Lu was surprised, "It's really broken!" ”
Wei Chi glanced at him and smiled, "What the princess said, can it be fake?" ”
Wei Lu looked at Qingyun embarrassedly, Qingyun smiled, "It's good to work, these are all seen from books, I don't know if it works, now it's confirmed, you can send people to Hongshan County." ”
The Ministry of Works was instructed to hurry up and do this.
Chu Bei's mind was on explosives, and he selected two officers and soldiers from the army, divided them into twenty groups, and studied explosives.
There are many people, and there is the general direction provided by Qingyun, and the development is half the effort, the only bad thing is that during the research, there was an accident, and many people were killed and injured.
This also made Chu Bei see the power of the bomb.
Here, Chu Bei was overjoyed.
Something happened to the third prince over there.
The emperor went to the border pass, and Chubei asked the three princes and Zhou Ziting to move to the fief to live, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and no one really cares what the three princes do in the fiefdom.
In addition, Chubei wanted to supervise the country again, but he didn't expect the third prince to leave the fiefdom without authorization and go to the border pass.
He could guess what he thought.
He probably had no hope for the throne, he didn't help King Anjun deal with Chu Bei, and he once fought with Chu Bei for the throne, although everyone thought that the eldest prince was dead at that time, or the emperor gave him three points of hope.
But after all, he is an ambitious person, who wants to guard the fiefdom, be an idle prince, idle all day long, and spend his days eating, drinking, and having fun?
The third prince wants to go to the border pass, and now he is not the emperor of Chubei, he goes to the border pass, to do his filial piety and help the emperor share his worries, as long as the emperor does not blame him, what can Chubei do to him?
In the army, it is easiest to make friends with generals, and then make a contribution, the emperor can't give him the throne, so he can always give him a decent official to do, right?
The three princes thought very well and it was easy to realize, but unfortunately people were unlucky, and they were stuffed with water when they drank water.
In order to avoid people's eyes, the third prince only brought a dozen cronies to the border pass, and encountered heavy snow blocking the road on the way, he was in a hurry to rush to the border pass, so he braved the snow to move forward, and then unlucky, encountered an avalanche.
Those cronies were all flooded by heavy snow, and the three princes rode in front at that time, and the cronies behind did not see it, but were blocked by the snow rolling down from both sides of the cliff, and the front could not be seen clearly.
When such a big thing happened, the cronies were frightened, and immediately told the immediate government to organize people to rescue the three princes.
If a person is really buried in the snow, he will surely die.
The government officials are afraid, the three princes pass by their jurisdiction, and they don't know about it, otherwise they have to send someone to escort the three princes to the next state and county, otherwise they will be responsible.
No, I quickly wrote a memo and submitted it to the court.
Then, the affairs of the three princes could not be hidden.
When Yun Guifei heard the news, she fainted directly.
When she woke up again, she went to the queen to make trouble, and she had a desperate posture with the queen, she decided that the emperor didn't think about sending the third prince to the fiefdom at all, it was the queen who instigated it, if the third prince was still in Kyoto, how could he have an accident.
She has a son from the three princes, and if the three princes have any three strengths and two shortcomings, she will not live.
Yun Guifei's commotion, Qingyun didn't know what to say, the third prince went to the border without authorization, and something happened on the way, can this also blame the queen?
If the queen instigated the three princes to go, she blamed the queen for saying that the three princes had already violated the law of the country if they left the fiefdom without authorization!
When she was forced to go to the fiefdom with Chu Bei, I was afraid that she had forgotten it, but now she blames the queen, but she is justified.
Qingyun's body was heavy, and she couldn't enter the palace, so she could only help the queen prepare medicine to remove scars, Yun Guifei went crazy and grabbed the queen's hand with two long blood marks.
Although Chubei is in charge of the country, he can't interfere in the affairs of the harem.
The queen confined Yun Guifei to the palace, but Yun Guifei's power in the harem is not small, and if she really wants to leave the palace, there is really no maid to stop her.
The queen thought that the life and death of the third prince were uncertain now, she pitied her for two points, she endured it once or twice, and the third time she made trouble, the queen asked Yun Guifei to press her and beat her for twenty boards.
Hit the board, lying on the bed and unable to move, people are not honest, but they are also honest.
If you make trouble in the future, you will continue to fight.
The third prince may have had an accident, this matter is not trivial, in the eyes of the hundred officials, compared to sending Qingyun to Nanchu, it is only big and not small.
After all, the princess is gone, and there can still be many princesses.
The three princes are gone, and they are gone.
In addition, Chubei also wanted to avoid suspicion, so as not to suspect that he took the opportunity to get rid of the three princes, so he sent a letter to the emperor to inform him about the three princes, and sent King Xuan to find the three princes.
Princess Xuan and Concubine Yun Guifei are siblings, and it is only appropriate to send King Xuan to find the third prince.
Besides, when the letter was delivered to the emperor, the emperor had just won a battle, and many generals asked the emperor to reward the soldiers, slaughter cattle and sheep, and celebrate.
The emperor is also more enthusiastic about this matter, and he has to agree.
This piece of music was sent to the emperor.
Seeing the twists and turns, the emperor was in no good mood at that time, how could those generals be embarrassed to continue to ask the emperor to reward the soldiers when something might happen to the third prince?
That's the end of it.
Those soldiers complained in their hearts about the three princes, is it not good to stay in Huzhou, they have to come to the border.
Forget about dying on the battlefield, this died on the way to the border, isn't this a joke?!
They also messed up their good banquet! (To be continued.) )
