As soon as Guo Shao returned to Tokyo, he heard about Li Jixun's dispatch of the army. Huaizhou assassin "defected", and on the eve of Li Jixun's army, he rushed back to Tokyo with his son to inform. In this world, civil officials are easier to control than martial artists, and the vast majority of civil officials will listen to whoever sits on the throne in the capital.

In the ceremonial hall in the south of the imperial city, Guo Shao met with the history of the Zezhou Thorn.

"Two months ago, Li Jixun released prisoners in the three cities, interfered in the local affairs of the prefecture and county, and requisitioned craftsmen and strong men everywhere. Harvest money, grain, iron, saltpeter, brimstone, ......"

"Saltpeter, brimstone?" Guo Shao immediately paid attention to this detail, he was more sensitive to these things, because ** except for Taoist priests and fireworks merchants, the government rarely used them.

The Taoist priests used the "volt**" and the ** used for fireworks are all things made up by the ancients themselves, and the formula is very poor, although it has been used in the military at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but it is basically useless. What did Li Jixun do with **...... Guo Shao immediately thought of Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhao Kuangyin knows the ** recipe for bombing the city! Only the ** recipe that Guo Shao experimented in Shouzhou has some military value, and the ** that exists in this era is something that scares people.

At the beginning of the battle of Shouzhou, Chai Rong coerced and lured Guo Shao to sacrifice Fangzi, but Fangzi did not spread, but Zhao Kuangyin was the core personnel around Chai Rong, and Zhao Kuangyin knew it...... Therefore, when Zhao Sanlang instructed the assassin to assassinate in the inn, he came up with ** and wanted to kill Guo Shao.

At that time, Guo Shao had no choice in the face of Chai Rong's coercion, but he also kept a hand; A few years ago, he wondered if Zhao Kuangyin was a person who could be the emperor, and whether he would be his enemy in the future, so there were a few details that he didn't shake out......

First, the method of middle school chemistry experiment purifies saltpeter. Dissolve filtration, cooking and crystallization to remove impurities, and then use a sieve to roughly screen out sodium nitrate crystals of different sizes and shapes. There is no method of purification, and the ** mastered by the imperial court is not pure, which further affects the mixing ratio of raw materials, and the power is reduced.

Second, the classification experiment method is used to find the mixing ratio of raw materials. Fangzi is dead, Fazi is alive. Others only get fish, not "fish".

Third, **granularization, adding water to lick and crush the sieve particles. Guo Shao personally experimented at the beginning, and the combustion rate of granulated ** was more than three times higher than that of powder...... Without granulation, the power of ignition and explosion is reduced by several times.

Fourth, air tightness. **It is an explosion, do not pay extra attention to the closure and tamping, and the explosion power is very small.

If the four details are not done, it is almost impossible to blow up the city wall...... At the beginning, Guo Shao blew up Shouzhou City, used the modern knowledge and knowledge that could be used in his memory, and desperately overdosed to succeed. An ancient person, even if he is the reincarnation of Zhang Liang, without these methods, wants to blow up the city wall at once, Guo Shao pondered that it was impossible to do it.

…… The news of the assassination history, the most important role, made Guo Shao guess: Zhao Kuangyin voted for Li Jixun!

Zezhou Thorn Shi is still gushing about all kinds of news, but Guo Shao basically didn't listen...... What Li Jixun wanted to do, he had already guessed. The person Guo Shao is most concerned about now: Zhao Kuangyin!

Zhao Kuangyin was almost completely defeated after the Tokyo Mutiny, and the world no longer cared about him. But Guo Shao has a special kind of persistence, and he can't ignore this person...... Modern historical knowledge gave him symptoms. Tang Zong and Song Zu, who doesn't know?

Guo Shao thought for a while, and now there is no way to take Zhao Kuangyin, unless he destroys Li Jixun first. But he remembered another person who was still in Tokyo: Zhang Yongdeok.

It is not an exaggeration for Zhang Yongde to have the grace of knowing Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin was trusted by Chai Rong, but Guo Shao knew very well what happened before and after the Battle of Gaoping...... didn't value Zhao Kuangyin first, Zhao Kuangyin was not even a general of the forbidden army, and he was still an official of Kaifeng Mansion; Without Zhang Yongde's many times in front of the emperor who spared no effort to ask for merit and say good things for Zhao Kuangyin, Chai Rong didn't even know who Zhao Kuangyin was, what else to talk about reuse and promotion?

Zhang Yongde's kindness to Zhao Kuangyin is no thinner than that of the ten brothers of the Nayi Society.

However, Guo Shao pondered again: During the Tokyo Mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin wanted to force Zhang Yongde to wear a dragon robe, did he want to use and harm him, or repay Zhang Yongde's kindness?

And Zhang Yongde's approach was very witty.

...... "It doesn't matter what a person says or thinks. Guo Shao suddenly said, "The most important thing is to see what he did at a critical time." ”

Zezhou Thorn Shi was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer Guo Shao's words.

Guo Shao immediately decided: Zhang Yongde did nothing wrong at a critical time, at least when he has power, glory and wealth should be given to Zhang Yongde.

What did Zhang Yongde think, did he want to be an emperor? Guo Shao has no way of knowing. But a person's thoughts are innocent, because people often think about many things, maybe they think about committing a very evil crime, maybe they think about winning the lottery, maybe they think about letting someone's beautiful wife sleep with them...... Who hasn't thought about something they shouldn't have? Just think about it, most things don't really happen.

At this moment, I saw the eunuch Cao Tai walk to the door of the hall, shook off the dust, and bowed: "The Queen Mother summoned General Guo and entered the palace immediately." ”

After Guo Shao heard this, he said to Zezhou: "Zhang Yuanjun is loyal and commendable, he does not collude with traitors, and he has brought important news, and the imperial court will definitely appreciate and reward Zhang Yuanjun." ”

Zezhou Thorn Shi bowed for a long time: "I don't dare to reward the matter of being loyal to the king." ”

"Gonggong Cao, didn't you enter the palace at nine o'clock in the morning to eleven o'clock in the morning?" Guo Shao asked casually.

Cao Tai said: "The Queen Mother wants to see General Guo alone in advance." ”

"I'm tired of Grandpa Cao's leading the way." Guo Shaodao.

Cao Tai seemed to remember the squinted "courtesy" he received when he saw Shi Yanchao in front of the palace, and hurriedly said: "General Guo is too polite. ”

Guo Shao enters the Xuande Gate, Daqing Gate, to the Jinxiang Palace, and enters the apse from the Yongdao on the side of the high stone steps.

When I arrived at the palace room where I had seen Fu Jinzhan several times before, I saw Fu Jinzhan wearing a yellow robe and pacing in front of the carved window through a thin wall like a screen with a wooden frame framed with silk and satin like a screen.

Guo Shao came in, and all the women withdrew one after another, and stood in the gate of the palace.

"The minister knocked to see the Queen Mother." Guo Shao bowed according to etiquette.

Fu Jinzhan turned around, and her snow-white and beautiful face was set off by the bright yellow satin. But her face didn't seem to be very good, and she said, "You get up...... Lee Chongjin and Lee Ji-hoon are so shameless! She threw a piece of paper on the table.

"Is it Li Jixun's inscription?" Guo Shao asked quietly, "I've already seen it." ”

Fu Jinzhan said in a deep voice: "They made up rumors and said that I ...... with you" Speaking of this, the emotions on his face were complicated, and shame and anger were mixed together.

In the past and now, Guo Shao has never seen Fu Jinzhan show much emotion in front of others, she is originally a person who can grasp her emotions, and her unchaotic bearing was even praised by Zhou Taizu, which is not worse than the heroes at that time...... But that's not to say she doesn't feel and can see everything.

Before, she just had no one to say, only on her own. Now, she is willing to show her emotions in front of Guo Shao, which is rare in itself. Guo Shao knew that all she wanted was a few words of comfort to make her feel better. There is no one in the world who is qualified to comfort her.

Just like the last conversation, Fu Jinzhan finally made it clear: I just want to hear your sweet words, but you have any reason with me.

However, for a smart person like Fu Jinzhan , completely unreasonable words could not comfort her. Guo Shao pondered vigorously for a while, and then spoke: "Has the Queen Mother read Luo Bingwang's "Seeking Wu Xuan"? ”

"Read." Fu Jinzhan looked at him expectantly.

Guo Shaodao: "After Wu Zetian saw it, he couldn't laugh back, and praised Luo Binwang's article for being very literate. ”

Fu Jinzhan said quietly: "I'm not Wu Zetian, I'm not so big-bellied." When they scolded me, I was angry and humiliated! And ......," she whispered, "you know that...... I can't have a clear conscience. ”

Guo Shao said: "No one in the world believes such scolding, what does the Queen Mother still care?" It's not necessary to be ashamed, even if we have always treated each other politely and abided by etiquette, Li Jixun will still scold him like this, because he rebelled, and he didn't have to worry about angering the Queen Mother; It's not about taking responsibility for insulting, it's about rebellion.

On the contrary, even if we really mess up the Spring Palace as written in the text, the gods and men are jealous, and the heavens and the earth are not tolerated, the people of the world will still not scold. First of all, people don't know what is going on in the palace, and secondly, if they are scolded, they have to bear serious responsibility.

So what we do or what we don't do is useless, and the enemy doesn't care about the facts, but just opens his mouth and says; Others don't care about the facts, because it's none of their business and it doesn't affect their interests. Unless it is too obvious, there are good deeds chasing after the wind and shadows, and the wild history is mapped, then it is admitted, and it does not hurt the heavens and reason, what kind of gods and men do not allow it? ”

Guo Shao said kindly: "The ancients said that the mouth of the people is better than the defense of Sichuan, and what others like to say can't be prevented, and they can't care about it." Distorted rumors without real evidence, only stupid people will believe it, and the Queen Mother doesn't have to care too much. ”

Guo Shao himself also created rumors, Zhao San's rape and murder case, but he did it more carefully, and there is a lot of true and false evidence to corroborate...... Of course, the biggest "evidence" is that Zhao Kuangyin failed. This kind of thing is a matter of position, and that's it.

Fu Jinzhan really looked a little calmer when she heard this, she pondered for a moment, looked at Guo Shao and said, "You said it's okay, I seem to be much better...... she said softly, "General Guo is a general, why are the people around you so comfortable?" ”

Guo Shao whispered: "Because I treat the Queen Mother with my heart." Will Zhao Kuangyin, Li Jixun and others feel comfortable with me? ”

Fu Jinzhan was slightly amused, and said with a smile: "Li Jixun is afraid that he hates you so much now." ”

"Maybe they don't hate me, they think I'm just a tool; The person who hates is the Queen Mother. Guo Shao said, "Now the people in the world who are ready to move are very jealous of the Queen Mother." The Queen Mother behaved quite artistically after her regency. ”

"Can I get by?" Fu Jinzhan asked softly.

Guo Shaozan said: "Very superb, very wise, now in this world, heroes and heroes can't be stable when the power is handed over, so it took 50 years to change the five dynasties and five surnames; In contrast, the change of imperial power of the Great Unification Dynasty was just a matter of leisure. ”
