Saying that, the emperor looked at Bi Dong, who lowered his head and looked panicked, his eyebrows furrowed, and his face was full of disdain, "Fu Xiaoguan was able to make the red-clothed cannon out with some craftsmen he recruited, and solved many problems that existed before - I asked you to drag the cannon to the Ministry of Industry to copy it, and you actually told me that it was blown up!" ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Bi Dong, "Tell me, why didn't his cannon explode?" ”

Bi Dong hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the iron he made for that cannon is much better than that of the Ministry of Industry." ”

The emperor was furious, "He Fu Xiaoguan can refine that kind of iron, but your Ministry of Industry can't refine it?" What's the point of me spending so much money every year to support you? Raising a group of dogs can still take care of the home, but what about the hundreds of people in your Ministry of Industry? What can you do? ”

"You told me before that this thing has no practical value, so I ask you now, if you put this red-coated cannon on the tower, will it have any value? If there are such hundreds of cannons at the front, it is worthless! ”

Bi Dong knelt down with a puff, but was speechless.

Shangguan Wenxiu was shocked in his heart, and only then did he understand why His Majesty suddenly attached so much importance to Gewu.

It's Fu Xiaoguan again!

If it is really a god and a man!

It seems that this policy of attaching equal importance to things and commerce and agriculture was proposed by Fu Xiaoguan, so the Guozijian must go all out to implement it among the students!

……

The convoy arrived at Itabashi Station in the evening, where it was still snowing.

The post house of the post station is very cold, and few people travel far away in such weather, but because of the reason that Xue Pinggui sent a sergeant to the front station, there are lights in the post house, and the post officer has also prepared the food and lodging of these hundreds of people.

The person in charge of the post station is the post officer, who belongs to the supernumerary personnel of the Yu Dynasty, but also receives the food and salary of the Yu Dynasty, and is responsible for taking care of the post station to ensure that the post station can be used normally.

It is far away from Jinling, and there is no big town nearby, and there is a snow-covered field outside the post station, with a wide field of vision, and no idlers are seen.

Fu Xiaoguan stopped and watched for a moment with the black box, and then led the group towards the row of two-story buildings.

Under the leadership of Xue Pinggui, they went up to the second floor and went to their respective rooms to have a look.

Perhaps because he knew the importance of the people on this trip, the post officer arranged these rooms very well, with a stove in them and a new quilt on the bed.

But there are more than 600 people in this line, and the 20 or so rooms in the post station will definitely not be able to live, so Fu Xiaoguan asked: "How to arrange the rest of the people?" ”

Xue Pinggui bowed and saluted, and replied: "We have a marching tent, and those students can only squeeze in, and this is almost the case all the way, and they all know it." ”

Fu Xiaoguan nodded and said, "Send one for dinner, I won't wait, tell them to rest early after eating, I'm afraid you have to work hard, pay attention to the dark whistle." ”

Xue Pinggui was slightly stunned, nodded in response, turned around and went downstairs, but what he thought in his heart was that this young man's mind was really meticulous.

Fu Xiaoguan, Dong Shulan, Yu Wenyun and Su Jue stayed in the same room, around the stove, and he talked about some things.

"Senior brother, I have something I need to ask you for a favor."

Su Jue straightened his crown hat, "Please speak!" ”

"Please ask your people to investigate Yu Chunqiu, the general of the Southern Border Army!"

"You're worried that the Southern Frontier Army will be bad for you?"

"No, as the son of Prince De, I have no grievances with him, and besides, there is no reason for him to be unfavorable to me, I just want to know more about this person."

Before he set off, he had arranged for someone from Drizzle Building to investigate, but the information he got about Yu Chunqiu was extremely preliminary, only that Fei An retired in the third year of Xuanli, and this person was appointed by His Majesty to serve as the commander of the southern border army, and then it was gone, which made Fu Xiaoguan scold December again.

"The other thing is to let your people go to the border city in advance, that place is said to be a mixed place, pay attention to those people in the rivers and lakes, especially the masters of the rivers and lakes!"

Su Jue thoughtfully, nodded in response, wrote a note, took off the high crown, took out the crow, tied the note to the crow's leg, and the crow flew out of the window and disappeared into the window.

Everyone was a little surprised by Fu Xiaoguan's cautious arrangement, but no one raised any questions, perhaps because they were used to staying with Fu Xiaoguan, they felt that Fu Xiaoguan must have his reason for doing this anyway.

So Su Rou embroidered her mandarin duck, and only raised her thin eyes to take a look at it when Su Jue was picking out the bird.

And Su Su was still eating her osmanthus cake, Dong Shulan and Yu Wenyun listened, but what they thought in their hearts was that the world was Antai, where would so many bad things happen? What's more, there were 500 knights in armor with him.

Fu Xiaoguan's heart actually prefers to do nothing here, these arrangements are just his habits, of course he hopes to be able to go back and forth safely, after all, in addition to Dong Shulan Yu Wenyun, there are a full hundred Dayu students here.

Then everyone chatted casually, and the most they talked about was still the safety of this road, which in Su Jue's opinion, if someone really wants to be unfavorable to Fu Xiaoguan, the best way is to use the masters of the rivers and lakes to raid - for example, please move Beiwangchuan!

Fu Xiaoguan thought to himself that Su Jue had carried the crow on his head for too long, but he didn't want to have a crow's mouth!

Then the post officer brought someone to bring the meal, compared to in Jinling, this dinner naturally seems simple, the post officer roughly knows the identity of these people, then a little uneasy, and said worriedly: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is really in a hurry, this Banqiao post is far away from the city, too late to buy, and please forgive me." ”

Fu Xiaoguan didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "It's already very good, we didn't come out to enjoy, you did a good job, go down." ”

The post official hurriedly bowed down and retired, and the hanging heart finally let go, thinking that these nobles with fine clothes and jade food were not as high-flying and domineering as rumored.

The six of them were dining, Su Jue suddenly looked up at the dark window, a man in black flew from the window, with a body of wind and snow, through the open window, a red line suddenly appeared in front of him, he smiled, Su Rou red line closed, Fu Xiaoguan immediately laughed.

Su Mo!

It has been more than two months since Su Mo went out on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and Fu Xiaoguan is not worried about him, but he is a little worried.

He seemed to be thinner, and his pretty face was a little darker in the light, but it was a little more masculine than it had been years ago.

He bowed respectfully to his senior brother and sister, sat down next to Su Jue, looked at Fu Xiaoguan with a smile, and said three words: "I'm so hungry!" ”
