Chapter 1205 Patrol Team

"Wait thirty feet back!"

Sure enough, with a wave of his hand, the First Emperor drove away the nearby palace people, chamberlains, and guards, and his face slowly became solemn.

"The young master's dedication of Taiyi God artillery and me today made me a little panicked and uneasy, this is an immortal magic weapon, will a large amount of use have an impact on Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty rest assured, the Taiyi God Musket and the Taiyi God Artillery, as well as the Divine Thunder Fireworks, are actually born from the Taiyi Divine Thunder, although it is more complicated to use, but it has no impact on the minister, and the minister has been successfully developed a few years ago, the reason why it has not been dedicated to His Majesty, one is that the Taiyi Divine Thunder is powerful and lethal to use, and the second is that these magic weapons all use gunpowder, although the formula of gunpowder is very familiar to the minister, but the raw materials required by my Daqin are very scarce, and the main ingredients in gunpowder include sulfur, And I Daqin does not have a large sulfur mine, all of them are separated and screened from copper and iron ore, not only the purity is not enough, the output is also extremely low, the Academy of Sciences buys only a few hundred catties a year, and finally produces only thousands of catties of gunpowder, although the Academy of Sciences has been refining gunpowder in the past few years, but it is basically all consumed when building the Dongfang Road and conquering Lingnan to dig the spiritual canal, if there is not enough gunpowder supply, whether it is Taiyi Shenlei or Shenhuo Gun God Artillery can not be used, This time, the fleet brought back a full 30,000 catties of volcanic sulfur ore with high purity from Yingzhou, and there would be enough supply of gunpowder in the future, so the minister thought that he could start to implement the Taiyi God artillery, which could not only deter unscrupulous people and maintain the security of Haijiang and Yingzhou in North Korea, but also allow the sailors to be familiar with the operation of the Shenlei artillery, and lay a good foundation for the future Great Qin's ocean-going conquest of Western countries! ”

"It turns out that everything is in the arrangement of the young master, so I am completely relieved, although I don't know what the Taiyi God artillery is, but it must be earth-shattering and terrifying to think about......," Qin Shi Huang's face instantly relaxed, stroked his beard and said with a hint of yearning.

"In fact, the firing method of Taiyi God Cannon and Shenlei Fireworks is almost the same, but it is more powerful, since Your Majesty is interested, the minister will arrange for the test factory to cast a few cannons first, and invite Your Majesty to test the cannon outside the city in a few days, and at the same time demonstrate the Taiyi God Musket and Taiyi Divine Thunder for Your Majesty, these weapons will slowly equip the Great Qin soldiers in the future, and Your Majesty can also see its power in advance!"

"Haha, that's good, I want to watch the young master's immortal magic weapon for a long time, but I have never been able to get what I want, the young master can fulfill my wish, it really makes me happy!" Qin Shi Huang laughed heartily and stood up.

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, the minister is too conservative, and your Majesty will definitely be satisfied in a few days!" Chen Xu hurriedly stood up and gave up his hand.

"Aiqing, since I ascended the throne and called the king of Qin, I have been trembling, in order to live up to the expectations of my ancestors of more than 20 generations of Great Qin, I reviewed the chapters every day until late at night, and I used to sleep peacefully for state affairs, until I met Aiqing......"

Qin Shi Huang held Chen Xu's hands tightly, his emotions were very embarrassed and emotional, and he could even feel the strange emotions in his eyes that could not be dissolved, "Since Aiqing arrived in Xianyang, he has prepared for the Academy of Sciences, reformed the court, implemented decrees, made food, issued newspapers, appeased hundreds of students, prepared for the establishment of the College of Engineering and Agriculture, and even in order to loosen the battle between Shang Law and Li Xiang, I have seen it in my eyes and remembered it in my heart. It is really a close friend, if there is no Aiqing so sparing no effort to help, how can Daqin Yan have today's wealth and power, Taiyi Immortal Zun has mercy on us and other ordinary people, and dreams of Aiqing Tianshu to assist me in governing the world, so I have always taken Aiqing as a teacher, and so on a few days later, I will be crowned the lord of Aiqing's Taishi, and this knight will only be enjoyed by Aiqing from now on, in order to show my affection and righteousness, but also to show Aiqing's honor, this is also my biggest reward! ”

"Your Majesty, why do you have to be so ......" Chen Xu smiled helplessly.

"I hope Aiqing doesn't refuse this time, although I am the emperor who rules Huaxia, but after all, I am only a mortal, what can be given to Aiqing is the glory and wealth of the mortal world after all, many Aiqing can't see it, Aiqing has the right to take it as a psychological comfort to me!"

Qin Shi Huang looked at Chen Xu with a kind face, holding Chen Xu's hands for a long time and was unwilling to let go.

"Aiqing is right, the three emperors and five emperors are still dead, how can I not die, now year after year, I have slowly reached the year of the mandate of heaven, and many things are slowly thinking more transparently, China has gone through more than 1,000 years of Shang and Zhou dynasties, the kings have changed, the princes have been fighting, the soldiers have been in constant disasters, and the people of Li are suffering, and the world has been unified in my hands, and this brilliant and prosperous trend has been achieved, but I have observed that all the sons have no imperial qualifications, and I am like dying, I hope that Aiqing can assist future generations as I am now, so that I can inherit the name of China from generation to generation!"

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will do his best to live up to His Majesty's trust, but ......" Chen Xu blushed a little embarrassedly, "Your Majesty also knows that the minister is lazy, and now he is in charge of Zhongshu Province and let His Majesty worry about it, and the minister is only afraid that he will be driven home by the new emperor to retire because he is too lazy!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Qin Shi Huang grinned very happily, "Aiqing is just too lazy, otherwise Daqin will definitely be richer and more prosperous than it is now, but Aiqing is the respect of the Grand Master, even if the new emperor succeeds to the throne, he will not dare to expel Aiqing back home, and the young master will sit and drink tea!" ”

Qin Shi Huang pulled Chen Xu to sit down again, Chen Xu picked up the teapot and poured the tea for the two of them, and said, "Your Majesty, you still need to make arrangements for the position of the crown prince!" ”

Qin Shi Huang picked up the teacup and nodded slightly: "I also know that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty care about the position of the crown prince, but I really haven't thought about it carefully, and when I think about it slowly, I will naturally inform Aiqing for details!" ”

"The establishment of the prince was originally a family affair of His Majesty, but His Majesty's family affairs are also a state affair, after all, the ministers will have to assist the new monarch in the future, and it is better to know it earlier and be at ease earlier, as for the princes that Your Majesty said are not the emperor's qualifications, it is difficult to choose the prince candidate, but the minister has another opinion, Your Majesty is the king of pioneering, and now the domestic peace of Great Qin is level, and the new monarch only needs to keep the throne, so there is no need to worry about it like Your Majesty, cultivate and raise the people, and develop the economy, my Great Qin will naturally have a thriving national strength, so Your Majesty does not need to worry!" Chen Xu said while drinking tea

"Well, what Aiqing said is reasonable, I will observe this matter again, please come to Aiqing today, I still have something to ask!"

"Your Majesty, but it doesn't hurt to say, the minister will relieve your Majesty's worries!"

"After the last tour of the southeast, it has been another four years, and the former Zhou Tianzi went out to inspect the world for five years, I want to go to Yan Zhao and the Liao Dynasty to cruise, I don't know what Aiqing thinks?"

Chen Xu slowly put down the teacup with a warm face, looked at the flourishing flowers and plants in the imperial garden, and then his eyes fell on a group of geese swimming around in the pond and said, "Your Majesty, is it comfortable to look at some geese?" ”

"Comfortable, indeed!" Qin Shi Huang nodded inexplicably.

Chen Xu bent down and picked up a stone and threw it into the lake with his hand up, and with a bang, a group of free geese all chirped in fright and flapped their wings, and the lake was in chaos in an instant, and this sudden change also frightened the palace people and guards who were waiting far away.

"Your Majesty, this wild goose is like the people of the world, they are plowing in spring and harvesting in autumn, living a peaceful and peaceful life, Your Majesty's parade, just like a minister throwing a stone into a calm lake, the minister's mind is only for the moment, but in the eyes of the wild goose, it is inexplicably frightened!" After Chen Xu finished speaking, he sat down and continued to drink tea.

Qin Shi Huang's face slowly calmed down, and then he became extremely serious, and he also quietly lowered his head and drank tea.

"Your Majesty has changed many old systems of business and Zhou, in fact, there is no need to follow the rules of the parade, Zhou Tianzi toured the world, because the road is not smooth, the news is blocked, and the princes of various places are separated, Zhou Tianzi wants to know more about the people's livelihood in the world, so there is a five-year tour, but now the road of the Great Qin State and the people is unblocked, and the court decrees are extremely convenient to pass through the post house, especially the Daqin Metropolis Daily, thousands of reporters and tens of thousands of non-staff writers, almost all the news in the world and even the vassal land of the four Yi princes can be recorded in all aspects, Now you can know the things of the world while sitting at home, why does Your Majesty bother to tour the world, and once Your Majesty travels, thousands of forbidden army and hundreds of officials accompany you, not only will there be a backlog of delays in many decrees and official documents, but also will work the people and lose money, since the minister promised to be His Majesty's minister, naturally he must also persuade His Majesty, the parade is not necessary, just read more newspapers, if you are not at ease, you can send some inspection teams to various places to inspect is! ”

"What is an inspection team?" This new term instantly aroused the interest of the First Emperor.

"The inspection team is a kind of temporary department of multi-government and government associations, specially designed to deal with complex affairs played by counties and counties in various places or to investigate a certain matter of great public grievance and anger, of course, it can also not be aimed at anything, special trip to collect information of interest to Your Majesty, these temporary departments will be disbanded after completing the task, it is not a permanent yamen, but sometimes it will have a good effect, for example, if Your Majesty wants to know more about the situation of Yanzhao's old land, you can transfer officials from some departments of Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province, and Supervision Province, Several temporary teams were formed to inspect the counties and counties in the northwest, to inquire about the people's affairs and official reputations, to collect information from various places, and so on, and then to formulate some different court policies based on this information......"

"Well, Aiqing's strategy is very good, okay, I won't go to the tour this year, and I will arrange a few patrol teams to go to Yan Zhao and his party later!" The First Emperor very readily adopted Chen Xu's opinion.
