Returning from the docks, Pei Gean walked around the ceremonial platform that was being set up.

This altar is not far from the entrance, with its back to the entrance, facing a dirt hillside of about seven or eight hundred meters.

Pei Ge'an walked up the steps of the podium, and then sat on the steps and looked at the hillside, calculating in his heart how to shock everyone tomorrow.

One side of the dirt hillside had been hollowed out, and the earth excavated here was transported to a brick kiln not far to the south, where the bricks of the city walls and ordinary green bricks were fired.

Several ropes were hung from the hillside, and several people who fell dug holes in the hillside.

This is the arrangement of the explosion holes, each of which has been excavated by Pei Ge'an, and the leads are coiled into a knot at the same distance from all the holes.

There are leads, there is gunpowder, and it is not difficult to carry out blasting.

The hard part is to bring all the explosions together and make a bigger difference.

On the other side of the hill, several larger pits were dug, all of which contained at least a hundred pounds of gunpowder.

She didn't have time to make granulated gunpowder yet, and she was still using gunpowder made by craftsmen of this era, and she just instructed them to make granular.

As for whether the power is strong, let's make up the number.

More powerful explosives, she doesn't have a plan at the moment, there are too many things to do.

Making a flintlock pistol now is already a dimensionality reduction blow for this era.

No matter what country it is, there is no concept of thermal weapons at all now.

More powerful explosives should be slowly taken out after having an industrial base that can build standard lathes, grinders, milling machines, die-casting machines and other equipment, and after having more advanced guns.

After looking at the hill for a while, Pei Ge'an felt that he still couldn't blow it up, at most, he could blow it up.

However, such a power should be able to deter the people of this era.

"Big Sister ......"

Pei Ge'an turned his head and smiled. "Second sister, third sister, come here. Mother, why are you here? Third brother, don't be naughty. ”

The two girls came running quickly and sat down next to Peg'an, the boy of five or six years old, mischievously climbing up and down the steps of the ceremonial platform.

And her mother-in-law glanced at the guards and a few attendants a little timidly, and saw that they were all smiling, so she boldly asked, "Sister, it's almost noon, do you want to eat at home?" ”

The second sister and the third sister both pulled Pei Ge'an's clothes and coquettishly. "Eldest sister, go home for dinner, when you go back, your mother will make something delicious."

The third brother also shouted: "Eldest sister, when I go back, my mother will kill chickens, I want to eat chickens." ”

Pei Ge'an smiled and nodded to Xu Yongchang, Xu Yongchang understood, and immediately arranged a small yellow door: "You go buy a chicken, cut a few catties of meat, and we will eat at Sister Pei's house at noon." ”

In this era, except for the compensation for being injured on the first day, Pei Gean has not touched the money.

This little yellow door is the walking wallet, responsible for helping her get money, whether she wants to eat snacks or snacks, say it, and buy it and send it to her.

Looking at the sun, she had been here for so long, and she had not learned to read the time. "What time is it?"

Xu Yongchang said: "It's almost mid-time. ”

Pei Ge'an stretched out his hand, and he handed over a booklet, and on the second page, a comparison table of the twelve hours was recorded.

In the middle of the day, it was almost ten o'clock.

She nodded and said to her mother: "Mother, I still have something to do, I will go back to eat in a while, you can make more rice, and the guards have a few big-bellied men." ”

Her mother immediately smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go back and prepare." Let's go, let's go back first, don't delay your eldest sister to do things. ”

The mother led a few children away, and a few small ones didn't want to go, but they didn't dare to resist, this is not a place to play after all.

Seeing them leave, Pei Ge'an felt a little apologetic in his heart, and waved his hand with a smile.

occupies her daughter's body, and although she has a memory of her, it is difficult to have that kind of pure feelings.

However, it changed the fate of their whole family, made their lives better, and made their consciences a little better.

Hanjing is calm here, but the aftermath of the big explosion has swept through Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhongshu Lingfu, Zhao Guangyi supported his thin body, looked at the emergency report in his hand, and couldn't help laughing.

But he didn't laugh twice, and the gasping caused by this breath made him unable to laugh anymore.

The original ambition turned into a few coughs...... The face is red and the ears are red.

Chen Congxin patted him on the back worriedly, and persuaded softly: "The Zhongshu Order should not be disturbed by this, this matter has a great impact, and if you don't need to make a move in the Zhongshu Order, there will also be people who will make suggestions to Your Majesty to cancel the Hanjing Mansion." ”

Zhao Guangyi gasped and said: "You don't know my second brother, he is stubborn and self-serving, and if he makes up his mind, he will not change easily." There are few people in the world who he can afford, and for the sake of his son, he will not easily accept advice. ”

"But if the Zhongshu Order is fanning the flames in the back and letting the officials know, the Zhongshu Order's body is ......"

Zhao Guangyi was stunned, and then his face twisted again. "It's all their father and son who hurt me...... I only hate that the world is all inflammatory, how much I was stammered in the past, and how alienated I am now. Although this body has been recuperating for a few months, it still does not improve, it is really hate, hate, hate! ”

Although Chen Congxin decided to repay his kindness with his body and help Zhao Guangyi deal with Zhao Dezhao.

But after the impulse at that time, that anger was discarded, and now I am glad.

Who wants to live if they want to die?

Seeing that Zhao Guangyi still wanted to go all the way to the dark, he was afraid in his heart, and he wanted to get out of this whirlpool as soon as possible.

However, he pretended to be more and more obedient on the surface, and suggested: "Zhongshu Ling might as well wait and see where the wind of the imperial court is blowing......"

Although Zhao Guangyi was reluctant in his heart, because of his serious illness and the alienation of his ministers, his own strength was limited, and it was difficult to call for wind and rain.

Moreover, Li is about to give birth, and he also wants to see his second child. "Well, let's take a look first......"

Zhao Kuangyin in the Zichen Hall looked at the stack of concerts on the desk in front of him, and was depressed.

The big explosion in the western suburbs of Hanjing, along with the six-hundred-mile urgent express, has spread all over Kaifeng Prefecture.

This kind of official document is not like the eyeliner he arranged, which was reported directly to him. Instead, it went directly through the sparse passage of the imperial court, first reported by the Shangshu Mansion, and the subordinates and Zhongshu collected all aspects of the information, and then handed it to him.

By the time the news reached him, the officials of the entire Kaifeng Mansion almost knew about it.

"On the night of February 29, thunder fell from the sky in the western suburbs of Hanjing, the earth shook the mountains, and more than 300 soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded. The fire is raging, and the earth is sinking into a big pit, which is a warning from heaven that we should put the chaos in order to return to the great unification. ”

This is the opinion of the ministers of the Zhongshu Prefecture, and it is also the opinion of most of the ministers.

This is fortunate that the world has not been appeased, otherwise, his emperor will be guilty of his own edict.

He knew very well what the reason was, and after the Hanjing explosion, another test was conducted the next day to reassure the people.

Local officials in Hanjing knew that the explosion was just an accident, and that it was caused by the improper operation of the imperial court now that it was developing a new weapon.

But out of Hanjing, almost everyone regarded this as a heavenly punishment.

It's hard to explain this kind of thing, and people would rather believe in ghosts and gods than think that it was the work of man.

Zhao Kuangyin definitely had no idea of punishing Zhao Dezhao, and was even more unwilling to interrupt the development of Hanjing.

In the past few months, he has seen the changes in Hanjing, and he knows that his son will do better and better in the future.

Do you want to do another experiment like Hankyung, so that all the ministers can see the power of gunpowder with their own eyes?

And in Hanjing, Zhao Dezhao had already planned this, and a ship loaded with four barrels of gunpowder sailed away from the Han River and into the White River.

Four barrels of explosives have been granulated and packed in wooden barrels, along with the explosives to Kaifeng Province, along with four pig iron shells of various sizes, and dozens of kilograms of specially made iron thistles.

Three hundred forbidden troops escorted the boat to Kaifeng Mansion, accompanied by Huang Han, the head of the Ministry of Industry.

Huang Han's ancestral home is Guanzhong, his parents died when he was a child, and he was raised by a Taoist priest of Zhongnan Mountain.

The Taoist temple that raised him is the famous local Danding school, which focuses on alchemy. He likes to study, from a fire boy to a gunpowder master in the Taoist temple.

Later, Xiashan opened a gunpowder shop in Chang'an City, specializing in supplying gunpowder to the firecracker workshops in Chang'an City.

In addition, the yellow phosphorus fire excerpt he developed is also the best-selling commodity in Chang'an.

However, in the Later Zhou Dynasty, because the fire broke out for no reason, causing a fire, he was arrested by the government, and he was spared imprisonment after paying a fortune.

Later, the imperial court recruited various craftsmen, and he learned to read and write from Taoist priests, so he entered the Ministry of Industry with gunpowder technology.

In the past few years, he has been promoted many times from a non-mainstream official, and now he is a matter of eight grades.

After coming to Hanjing, he was also valued by Zhao Dezhao and Pei Ge'an, and he was always in charge of gunpowder improvement and granulation.

This time, he was burdened with the task assigned by Zhao Dezhao and returned to Hanjing, and he was also full of ambition in his heart.

Going against the current, the speed of the boat was not fast, he sat on the bow of the boat, still thinking about what Zhao Dezhao told him: "I went back to Hanjing this time, just to surprise those masters of the imperial court." Let them know that this is not a heavenly punishment, this is your Huang Chongdao's ability. ”

What made him even more excited was that the left-behind guards actually handed over his letter directly to himself and brought it to the official family.

He just doesn't understand things anymore, and he knows that this is to stay behind to support him.

Otherwise, he is an eight-grade craftsman, where will he have the opportunity to meet the official family directly.

From a Taoist to a businessman, from a businessman to a prisoner, from a prisoner to an official, he Huang Han has not gone smoothly in the past 20 years.

But now, he thinks that if he is not extremely Tailai, he Huang Han wants to let those big men know his name this time.

Hanjing Festival Embassy Mansion, now the door has been hung with the plaque of Hanjing Stay-behind Mansion, this plaque is Zhao Dezhao's handwriting, as soon as it is hung up, it has attracted countless Hanjing scholars to come to observe.

"It is said that the prince is born with divine power, not an ordinary person, this handwriting is natural, and it is a school of its own, this is a real civil and military duality!"

"That is, this is the son of the dragon, the future son of heaven, how can I compare with mortals like me!"
