Chapter 181: Children of the Family (Part II)
Ouyang Tong has a son and a daughter under his knees, but he has no grandchildren, seeing the sweet and cute little appearance of Shuangli, he has a little sincere love, and he watched her write a large and small character on the spot, and he was even more happy, and brought it into the backyard to give his wife a gift, and then, he couldn't bring it back.
Quan Ce didn't have to underestimate his attention, and this little movement on his side soon spread in the mansions of the powerful people in the DPRK.
"Father, the child is stupid and does not understand the cause of this?" In the study of Di Renjie's mansion, Di Guangyuan, the official Shangshu, frowned deeply, and muttered, "That day in the southern suburbs of the autumn outing, the child had hinted at Yu Quance, the child was in Dali Temple, and his father was in the Qiuguan Yamen, he should be able to understand, but he didn't pick up, he didn't hesitate to make another trick and took a long detour, why bother?" ”
"Hehehe" Di Renjie smiled pleasantly, "It's not surprising, he likes to act in a holistic manner, he likes to take care of everything, he has never gone all out, he has always left room for him, and the close relationship between him and the central government is more than one or two, if he is not sure, how can he have alarmed anyone?" ”
Di Guangyuan nodded hesitantly, "Then there is no danger to protect Song Jing, and he can also give favors, I think many people are willing to cooperate with him, why do you want to go near and far to find Li Zhaode?" ”
"He is exactly what he is clever, he seems to beg for a few, but he kills a few birds with one stone" Di Renjie smiled, followed by good temptation, and solved the doubts for his eldest son, "Quan Ce has a gap with Li Zhaode, and he can say that he can move him to protect Song Jing, and he wants to pay some price, so even if Song Jing is upright, how can he not be grateful?" After this dealing, the gap between the two was able to break the ice, Liu Xing's prison seemed to be a battle between the DPRK and China, and the most severely injured was the Li clan in Longxi, which was far away in Didao County, and the Li Zhaode clan relied on all of them and was hesitating.
"Da Lang has worked hard to manage his contacts in the court, and today Ouyang Tong, if there is something, he often abandons it and does not use it, what is the point?" Di Guangyuan blinked and looked at his father with great reverence.
"Idiot" Di Renjie restrained his smile and shook his head slightly, "This kind of thing, Quan Ce used his own strength to mobilize a few petty officials, and then the situation was closed, one is to kill chickens without a knife, respect their status, and the other is to show strength, unused connections, in his repeated victories, not only will not fade away, but more dignified, when it comes to use, why do you need him to speak, your father and I are one of them"
Di Guangyuan looked at his father in surprise, Di Renjie straightened the sleeves of his robe, he was telling the truth, Quan Ce showed his skills, not only to enemies, but also to friends, at least for now, he has full confidence in Quan Ce's ability and ethics, this young man is not a thing in the pool.
Di Guangyuan was a little difficult to accept, "Ordinary intersections, I always see him light-hearted, warm-hearted, and sincere, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, is there really such a complicated scheming?" ”
"Hehehe" Di Renjie smiled, thinking a little narrowly, "Everything is a guess for my father, if you ask him, he will not admit it"
Di Guangyuan heard his father's joke, and immediately blushed, and knelt down from the table, "The child is dull, which disgraces his father, and he is a few years old in vain, but he is ignorant, and he is really ashamed."
"Silly boy, hurry up" Di Renjie walked out from behind the table and helped him up, "My son is talking about righteousness, but what he is doing is power, and the two are incomparable."
"Then, should the child properly alienate the eldest man, so that he may not be used for it?" Di Guangyuan asked with some embarrassment, he was standing in the near future, and he had to ask his father such questions, which was quite embarrassing, but the gods were windy, and his father's power was growing, so he had to be cautious.
"My son is fallacious" Di Renjie was very happy, he was an enlightened father, willing to communicate with his sons more, "Quan Ce is the dragon and phoenix among people, you have a relationship with him, all by your own heart, don't intersect with the sage, but also with the mediocre?" If he is really useful to you, as a friend, you should do your best, where does it come from? ”
Di Guangyuan's eyes lit up, "Thank you for my father's teachings, the child understands"
Di Renjie brushed his beard and smiled, and the young general with a helmet and armor flashed in front of him, hanging the ancient battlefield, and setting up the soul of the Eastern Capital Qianniuwei, whose prestige has not fallen to this day.
At that time, he was still the history of Ruzhou Thorn.
Huan Hai is unpredictable, Quan Ce can use the plum blossom internal guard, clearly arrest him, but actually protect him, he has such a strong understanding person around this child, he must be able to have a few more lines of life.
"There is little idle soil on the north mountain, and it is full of Luoyang old people's tombs"
Fifty miles outside the Anxi Gate of the North Gate of the Shendu, there is a mountain called Beibi Mountain, this mountain is the barrier of the North Gate of Luoyang, and it is also the closest mountain to Luoyang, Wu Youxu and Quan Ce and his party came here, looked at it, no, there are not many stones on the mountain, the soil is loose, the soil is usable, but there are graves everywhere, and it is unlucky to dig indiscriminately.
Forty miles to the north, there is a stone mountain, steep slopes and cliffs, full of stones, a bunch of craftsmen on the hillside knocking and beating, collecting small stones down, Quan Ce and Wu Youxu gradually piled up these specimens in front of them, turning over and examining, Quan Ce did not understand that those stones can burn lime, or Wu Youxu solved this problem, turned over the "Zhou Li", found the record of the ancestors using oyster shells to burn lime, he asked people to get some oyster shells from the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, ground into powder, and roughly understood what kind of stone can burn lime.
Wu Chongmin rushed to follow, he had little strength, and he couldn't chisel stones, so he could only come back with a few scattered small stones and choose them for his cousin and eldest brother.
"This stone should be able to" Wu Youxu found his favorite stone, but he was not in a hurry to dig it, but let people dig a pit according to the mountain, made a simple kiln, closed it in all directions, only a smoke outlet remained, erected flammable wood, staggered layer by layer, more than two meters up, knocked the stone into fine pieces, scattered in the wood, lit a fire and calcined, the craftsmen cut wood and cut wood and scraped ashes, and were busy.
When the fire was lit here, there were also accompanying stewards and servants who found the local woodcutter hunter to exchange some game food, made a meal, and dealt with it simply.
"Brother, if this method is feasible, the stones needed are not a little bit, and they all rely on manpower to dig, I'm afraid they won't be able to support it, so it's better to blow it up with gunpowder, isn't it simple?" Wu Chongmin ate a round belly, wiped his oily mouth, went to the mountain to watch the craftsmen quarrying for a while, and came down to give advice.
Wu Youxu smiled, "Chong Min draws inferences from one another, and his mind is very bright, but you must know that gunpowder is only used for fireworks now, for entertainment, and has no other use."
Wu Chongmin blinked his eyes, as if he understood or not, no wonder Sister Qianniu trained the fireworks army, and she had to go to the deep mountains and old forests, and she hadn't seen her for several days.
On the second day, the shell of the stone turned black and red, and when it was taken out, there was smoke all around it, like a freshly roasted sweet potato, and after it was crushed, it was white lime.
Wu Youxu grabbed a handful, twisted it, sniffed it, and nodded, "Let's go, go back to the city, and try one or two, Chongmin went to find Li Xiangye and asked him to send someone to temporarily seal Shishan"
Wu Chongmin didn't say a word, he galloped away, he had been walking in Jiangzuojian and Qianniuwei for a long time, and he was used to seeing big scenes, as if he was the spokesperson of Wu Youxu and Quan Ce, no matter who he saw, he had no stage fright, and no one dared to slack off.
Looking at his back, Wu Youxu and Quan Ce looked at each other and smiled.
