As soon as the porter heard that it was a holy decree, he even crawled to inform the head of the family, Lu Zifei was stunned when he heard this, how could he have a holy decree for himself, he recently went to Xixia, and he didn't do anything! This is really the first time that the new daughter-in-law has been on the sedan chair, and he doesn't know what to do.

Wang Weiwei stood up and said: "What's the panic, it's just a holy decree, and it's not a beheading, Banxia, you and Su Mu go to put the incense case out, Hanzhang, you go to take a bath, what should the rest of the people do, what are they doing here, don't eat." ”

There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, at this time they can show their valuable experience, after a short period of tension, under the arrangement of the only king, the procedure was carried out in an orderly manner, after Lu Zifei came out of the bath, the only one said to the king: "There is a messenger who asks for a decree." ”

The five people who passed the decree arrived in the front yard and saw all this that they had prepared, and nodded secretly, okay, no rudeness, Lu Zifei led his family to kneel, and the person in front took out a yellow cloth and began to read, at least a few hundred words, Lu Zifei listened to the sky and the earth, in the clouds and fog, anyway, he really didn't understand what people were reading.

Wang Weiwei saw that the holy decree had been read, and Lu Zifei was still kneeling there motionless and said, "Hanzhang, it's time to take the decree and thank you." ”

Lu Zifei didn't think about it, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live" The person who announced the decree was stunned, he heard someone thank him so much for the first time, but the fart was good, he said: "Lu County man, you can get up." ”

The holy decree in Lu Zifei's hand was rolled up, and he couldn't see the words inside, he understood the word Lu Xiannan, this should be a title! Looks like I'm going to have to ask a few old guys in a moment.

"When the business is done, go to dinner, what are you doing here one by one, waiting for me to bring you food?" The person who announced the decree also wanted to reply that whose subordinate was so unruly, turned his head and looked, Mom! The soul almost didn't come out of his body, knelt on the ground and said: "The little one doesn't know that the old ancestor is here, and he has disturbed the old ancestor's cultivation, please forgive the old ancestor." ”

Wan Ming said impatiently: "Get up and go eat, I still have questions for you after eating." ”

Huzi took those people to dinner, and Lu Zifei took Wan Ming in place of the little wolf, and gave him the holy decree in his hand and said, "Grandpa Wan, what is said here, I can't understand it at all." ”

Wan Ming said: "I heard it outside the door just now, it's a good thing, the first one is to give you the title of the official, the six products of the court, the scattered officials, only salary, no real power, to put it bluntly, it is to give you white hair, the second is the main content of this holy decree, you are named Huairen County male, is a hereditary title, this is a good thing, with a title you will step into the ranks of the nobles, and it is still hereditary, as long as you do not rebel, this title can be passed on from generation to generation, but Huairen County is there I really haven't heard of it." ”

"Huairen County is in Yunnei Prefecture, the emperor's meaning is very clear, the knight is given to you, you want to be fiefdom, and you can grab it yourself, which is also in line with the psychology of the emperor's knighthood, this is the second substantive county man who has been sealed in recent years, and your brother Li Lin is the first." It was Shao Yong who spoke, and when he heard the news, he rode over, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he came out to answer for them.

Lu Zifei said: "Then it's useless!" I thought I could give something practical? It's okay to give some money! Others like the rare ones in the palace can also be that, isn't it a waste of feelings to seal such a thing? ”

Shao Yong's lips were blue, Wan Ming stretched out his hand to the back of Lu Zifei's head three times, and said with hatred that iron is not steel: "What do you want to do with those things that you don't bring in life and don't bring in death, the title is a sign of the rise of a family, no matter how fat the pig is, it is also a pig, and the owner will slaughter it when he wants, no matter how thin the wolf is, it is also a fierce beast, although both may die at the hands of hunters, but the wolf still has the power to fight, no, the vision should be long-term, people have no foresight, and there will be near-term worries." ”

Lu Zifei said: "What is the specific embodiment of this thing." ”

Wan Ming said: "If you and Yaofu are not in a teacher-student relationship, he will salute you first when you two meet, understand?" Jinshi, you can do a good job, the title needs to be meritorious, under normal circumstances, the founding emperor has more knights, with the consolidation of imperial power, the emperor will gradually withdraw those titles, in the period when there is no war, it is even more difficult to be knighted. ”

Lu Zifei asked suspiciously: "I helped the emperor make so much money before, why didn't he knight me." ”

Wan Ming said: "That's a personal help, the courtiers don't know, once the matter of Western Xia is confirmed by the court, no one will refute you as a baron, you try to mention the matter of helping the emperor make money, those who have a task don't spray you to death with spittle, I have your surname, this is the difference, the difference between state affairs and family affairs." ”

Lu Zifei continued to ask: "Isn't Li Lin also knighted?" Why didn't anyone refute it. ”

"Li Lin's matter involves some secrets of the palace, so I won't tell you, this is what they owe to the emperor, so no one stopped it, understand? You can't be like a child with a knighthood. ”

Lu Zifei pouted and took it to heart, went to the canteen to eat with the master and Wan Ming, and when he arrived at the canteen, he couldn't help but greet Liu Yong, Liu Yong's thinking today was a little unable to keep up, many things broke his deep-rooted cognition, the main family and the people ate together, and after a closer look, the dishes were all the same, and they were not treated differently, a bit of the Datong world in Confucianism, everyone was equal.

Wan Ming and Shao Yong are used to it, the dishes on the plate are all their favorite dishes, the little wolf sits next to Wan Ming, Nanxing sits next to Shao Yong, and keeps sandwiching the dishes on his plate to the people close to him, Liu Yong is still a little uncomfortable when he looks at it.

The girl's table was much more joyful, talking and laughing, attracting a lot of guards to look sideways, people are social animals, Pei Peipei is still a little uncomfortable with this, Master Li smiled and said to her: "You will adapt in a few days, I was embarrassed to eat the bucket for a few days, and then the guy told me when he brought me food at night, you have to take the initiative to adapt to the environment, instead of waiting for the environment to adapt to you, if you don't adapt, then only eliminate it, eat it in a big gulp, no one will laugh at you here, but you can't waste it, If you waste it, you will be in big trouble, seeing that those few who cleaned up, wasted half a bowl of rice in the first two days, punished them for cleaning the canteen for a month, and fed the pigs in the pigsty for a month, so you have to remember. ”

A guard who came to announce the decree stopped Lu Zifei and said, "Hello Master Lu, when I came, Master Li asked me to hand you a letter, and he said that you must ask you to reply to him." ”

Lu Zifei said: "Who are you talking about, Master Li!" I don't seem to know any Lady Lee. ”

The guard said: "Lord Li is a man from Ding'an County, and Lord Li Lin, the capital of the Ordnance Prison, don't you know him?" ”

Lu Zifei was speechless, he said: "You can call him Li Lin or Xiao Lizi, you have to call him Lord Li, can he be an adult?" And when did he become an ordnance superintendent, I don't know. ”

The guard said: "That was a year ago, and Master Li is the youngest fifth eunuch in the history of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Lu Zifei thought to himself, I don't seem to understand the ordnance supervisor, you just want me to help and I can't help, read Li Lin's letter, he has a small understanding of the weapons of the Song Dynasty, this matter still has to ask the professionals, call the little wolf, the two of them came to the blacksmith shop at home, the blacksmith saw Lu Zifei and said: "Is there something wrong with the owner coming over?" ”

Lu Zifei said: "Do you know how to build weapons?" ”

The blacksmith said: "The owner looks down on people, our family has been making iron for a living for generations, my father told me that our family is the descendant of Master Ou Yezi, do you think we will make iron?" ”

Lu Zifei said: "That's disrespectful, don't go to your heart, I want to know what kind of weapon is the sharpest and toughest." ”

The blacksmith said: "Now the Damascus knife of the Persians is the sharpest and toughest, and we Han people used to be able to make this kind of weapon, but because of the lack of materials and craftsmanship, we were surpassed by the Persians in this area, and the most important thing was Uzi steel." ”

Lu Zifei is recalling the memory of this past life, Uzi steel, also known as Damascus steel, is a perfect combination of ancient powder metallurgy and forging technology, it is easy to understand the problem of carbon content, the carbon content is high and brittle, the carbon content is low and soft, and he has no doubt that the Chinese are definitely their ancestors.

Lu Zifei said to the blacksmith: "I can help you provide you with a way to smelt Uzi steel, and you have to try the rest again and again, do you want to try it, it is not a problem to be promoted and make a fortune." ”

"Boss, are you serious?"

Lu Zifei said: "You can try it now, you can just make two pieces of the same weapon blank, and then add a little bamboo charcoal to one piece, and the other is still forged with previous experience, and you can see what the difference is after the finished product?" ”

The blacksmith said, "I haven't heard of this yet, you can experiment with it, I found that the temperature has a great effect on iron when we forge weapons, but I just can't solve it." ”

Lu Zifei said: "That's because you are stupid, in the past, you used charcoal for forging, but now if you use charcoal, the temperature will definitely go up, and your furnace is too short, you can increase the height of the furnace, and the temperature of the fire can be even higher." ”

The little wolf said: "What does the temperature have to do with the level of the stove, you are also talking nonsense here." ”

Lu Zifei said: "Playing the piano to the cow, physics and chemistry can explain to you that you don't need me to understand the world." ”

The little wolf said: "Every time you can't tell us, you use this reason to prevaricate us, don't think we don't know." ”

Lu Zifei said: "That's because I don't want to explain to you, today I can let you feel the charm of science." ”
