Chapter 389: The Puzzle Is Finally Solved
According to research, a person's willpower has a lot to do with his beliefs, and a simple warrior will be very fragile in his mind and thinking without faith, and it is normal for him to have a mental breakdown under strong psychological pressure.
Under the rough psychological warfare of the Lu family's guards, the five people quickly explained truthfully, they were the personal guards of the Liao royal family, and they followed Liu Liufu to envoy the Great Song Dynasty, and met a person halfway through, and said to Liu Liufu that the Great Song Dynasty had a kind of divine thunder that could open mountains and crack stones, and they sneaked into the mansion for this thing.
Gunpowder in the Great Song Dynasty knows that people can count it with both hands, Wei Chi is one of them, he is the emperor's confidant, specializing in supervising the test and production of gunpowder, if the Liao people succeed today, the consequences are unimaginable, their lives are worthless, but they can't afford a series of follow-up effects caused by gunpowder leakage.
Shao Yong frowned and scolded: "What are you doing here, don't go and reply to the capital." ”
Wan Ming said: "Yaofu, how about we say that we will send these five people back to Liu Liufu." ”
"It's always hard to escape death, I believe that Liu Liufu will still be sent back intact, there is no need, send it to those children to do research! Otherwise, they will be yelling all day long that there are no corpses to use. Shao Yong said with some objections.
Wan Ming said with a smile: "It's okay to be disgusting and disgusting to them, Yelu Zongzhen can't manage his own one-third of an acre of land now, and he is still in the mood to come to our Great Song Dynasty to do things." ”
Huzi saw that they had forgotten another thing that the spy had explained, and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Shao, do you want to tell Xiao Fei what they said about the Taoist priest." ”
Wan Ming looked at Huzi with a smile and said, "You elm head, no wonder that kid didn't take you with him when he went to the capital." ”
"It's that I don't want to go, it's not that Xiaofei doesn't take me." Huzi muttered quietly.
Shao Yong said: "I was obsessed with Taoism at the beginning, and I was half a Taoist person, as his master, I couldn't help him in my career, but I couldn't hold him back. ”
Huzi touched his head embarrassedly, he forgot that Mr. Shao was still a fake Taoist, Wan Ming said: "The little monkey is very disgusted with religion, he told me that his own belief is himself,
He is even more disgusted with Buddhism, if this incident is really related to the Taoist people, with his temperament, I am afraid he will not give up easily, and the things that the Liao people are exploring have touched the bottom line in his heart. ”
Shao Yong said: "It's not bad to borrow his hand to rectify it, I don't believe in Taoism, all the people who don't believe in Taoism have lost their conscience, and the black sheep should be eliminated as soon as possible, which is good for everyone, and Taizu's kindness to Taoism makes them a little carried away." ”
Liu Liufu walked back and forth in the room anxiously, none of the five people came back, the possibility of coming back overnight was zero, he didn't blink his eyes when the five people died, what he was worried about was the Great Song Dynasty's words, whether the news would be transmitted back to the emperor of Dadu to take the opportunity to make trouble.
"In the next time, you all give me a little restraint, don't have a conflict with the Song people, if anyone is captured by the Song people, I will not rescue you."
When there were two people left in the room, Liu Liufu looked at the person he had saved halfway and said, "I am now sixty percent sure that the thing you said exists, otherwise the Zhuangzi of a little marquis will not be able to keep my five subordinates." ”
"The small ones will definitely not deceive the adults, but there are too few people who have seen the real thing, and under such a tight defense, the possibility of stealing things is too small, and you have to find a new way."
Liu Liufu said: "Can you go back to your home in Da Song and use the relationship at home." ”
The man smiled bitterly and said, "The little one escaped without permission, my lord, didn't you let me go back into the mouth of a sheep?" ”
With this little person in his mission, robbing is no different from delivering food, he really wants to see with his own eyes whether that thing has as much power as this person's mouth, if there is really one, is it still a matter of internal strife in Liao?
Two days later, the two fast horses rushed to the palace and the Lu Mansion respectively, Lu Zifei closed his eyes after reading the letter and guessed the cause and effect of the matter, how could the three people and things that were not touching each other be connected.
The recent things are all whimsical and can't catch the head and tail, Liu Liufu must not be able to move, there is no direct evidence to prove that the five Liao people are his subordinates, Liu Liufu can say that he doesn't know him, and the responsibility can be pushed away.
"Husband, someone from Zhuangzi in the suburbs said that the watermelon you planted seemed to be ripe, and asked if you wanted to take a look." Cai Mengyue looked at Zhang's husband with a look of hope and said.
Lu Zifei got up and put the letter away, and said with a smile: "Okay! Watermelons can't be cooler in this weather, you go and take Junxiang, and we'll go together. ”
Li Lin and Cao Feng seem to have a lot of fate for eating, Lu Zifei just got into the carriage and ran into them, as soon as he heard that there was food, what were you waiting for, on the way Li Lin asked: "Watermelon sounds like melons and fruits, but why haven't I heard of it." ”
Lu Zifei said angrily: "I haven't heard of watermelon, I've always heard of cold melon!" ”
Cao Feng said in surprise: "It turned out to be a cold melon!" I ate it once in the palace, it was sweet, but the season was not right! I remember that the melons were only ripe at the end of June and the beginning of July! ”
"Then why don't you say that there shouldn't be that season when you eat vegetables in the cold winter?"
Li Lin suddenly realized: "It turns out that you planted it in the greenhouse, your family is not big, I saw that the largest thing in the palace is the size of a bowl, and there are several hanging on a vine." ”
Lu Zifei said: "My watermelon only bears one melon on a vine. ”
When he arrived in the greenhouse, Lu Zifei knew why the farmers said that the watermelons were ripe, because a few watermelons collapsed by themselves, Li Lin exaggeratedly shouted: "Xiucai, do you have any stunts, why do your cold melons grow so big." ”
Lu Zifei took a turn in the shed and found that the largest estimate was only about twelve or three catties, which was a bit trivial compared to the twenty or thirty catties in later generations.
"At the beginning of planting, farmers still don't understand the habits of watermelons, and after another year or two, it will not be a problem to grow 20 catties."
Li Lin said with a face full of disbelief: "Bragging and not making drafts, it was regarded as auspicious so early." ”
Lu Zifei said: "Then you have seen dozens of quintals of grain per mu before, don't use your weak insight to measure me, can you come and see it yourself in a year." ”
Li Lin stopped talking, in agricultural affairs, there is no one in the Great Song Dynasty who has more say than Lu Zifei, and he has also seen the yield of sweet potatoes and corn.
Jun Xiang touched this curiously, touched that, and said in a milky voice: "Daddy, can you eat this?" ”
Cao Feng hugged his eldest nephew and scolded with a smile: "You two are not as good as one who eats milk, Xiaolinzi, you are too, what are you arguing with Xiucai, you just have to eat yours, some big ones eat big ones, no big ones eat small ones, and some eat and can't control your mouth." ”
Lu Zifei said to the farmer who was serving the watermelon: "This thing is easy to identify whether it is ripe or not, and the appearance of ripe is not so bright, and there is a little point where the melon butt is connected to the vine, and the fluff on it will be completely absent, and it can be distinguished with more experience in the future." ”
In order to confirm that what he said was right, Lu Zifei personally picked three, two of them were very good, and only one was slightly worse, and the watermelon that was planted without chemical fertilizer and all with oil residue tasted very sweet, and Li Lin shouted to eat it after eating the two.
"This thing is almost on the line, you can hear it from its name, cold melon, cold melon, and popsicles, ice cream is a truth, eating too much is not good for the stomach, as long as one is cooked, a large area must be almost ripe, and when the time comes, each of you will come to pull a few carts."
Li Lin gave up very obediently, not because he didn't eat it, but because he went to the shed to pick it up for himself, and was going to take it home and eat it slowly, he ate it, but he hadn't eaten it yet?
On the way back, two of the three carriages were full of watermelons, and Li Lin, who was riding on the horse, said: "The Prime Minister is very dissatisfied with my misdeeds in the Ordnance Supervisor and wants to get me out of that position. ”
Lu Zifei said: "The ordnance supervisor is supposed to be under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, Jia Changchao wants to change you quietly, will Song Zhen agree?" ”
"The news was told to me by the privy envoy, and I was a little helpless when I heard his tone, I think the two of them should have made an exchange."
The position of the ordnance supervisor has always been within Lu Zifei's plan, don't look at the yamen is not big, but it plays a great role, most of the weapons and equipment of the millions of forbidden troops are from the ordnance superintendent, not that Lu Zifei is reluctant to this position, but wants to go on the Northern Expedition in the future, and the status of the ordnance supervisor is highlighted.
"If you have a suitable candidate in your hand, let him replace you."
Li Lin said: "Actually, I want Fengzi to take my seat, what do you think." ”
Lu Zifei immediately vetoed: "Fengzi can't do it, he can charge in battle, he can't play with the ordnance supervisor, he hasn't hammered people to death with his fists for two days." ”
If there is no suitable candidate, they can only be shelved first, and they have also attracted some people in the DPRK, but their status is too low, and they can't support them now.
Cao Feng said: "I'll go back first, you two go slowly!" ”
Li Lin said: "It's still early, go back and have a few drinks with Xiucai." ”
"Not today, my housekeeper's son is putting the money outside, and when I clean him up, I'll drink it tomorrow."
Lu Zifei asked, "Is the donkey rolling?" ”
Cao Feng said: "No, he uses old money and new money to toss each other, anyway, a few back and forth make a lot of money, didn't the housekeeper tell me himself, I really don't know?" ”
The new money and the old money, taking advantage of the difference in the exchange, Lu Zifei instantly figured out where the problem with the account books that he hadn't figured out in a month was.
"Fengzi, you are really my lucky star, the mystery has finally been solved, it is I Lu Hanzhang who underestimated the hero of the world!" With a long sigh, Cao Feng rode away in one step, and Li Lin and Cao Feng thought that their good brothers had hysteria.
