"Lord Guogong is looking for a poor way?"

Qu Pingwu turned around and saw Wang Chongyang standing behind him, he didn't know when he appeared, he said that he was poor, but his outfit was the same as yesterday. Qu Ping said: "Where is Brother Wang, let's find it?" ”

Wang Chongyang knotted the Tai Chi Yin and Yang seal with both hands, and said, "Let the adults bother." A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and the poor road is both here and elsewhere. ”

Qu Ping said: "After sleeping all night, you won't catch a cold and fever, right?" ”

"The Tao is always doing nothing, and everything is ......"

"I still have all the appearances are empty phases, and if I see all the appearances that are not the same and not the non-appearances, I will see the ones that come as they are!" Qu Ping interrupted.

"The road is one, whether it is a Buddha or a Tao, it is just a crossing of others and oneself."

Qu Ping said: "This won't be a night of sleep and enter the Tao!" ”

Wang Chongyang said: "In my sleep last night, two Taoist immortals preached to me and ordered me to preach to the world. I'm afraid that the poor road can no longer follow the influence of Guogong. ”

Qu Ping knew in his heart that he had expected all this. Qu Ping said: "I knew that Brother Wang was by no means a thing in the pool, so I said a long time ago that you can leave at any time." Although this day was expected, when this moment came, I was still a little unprepared. ”

"Thank you for your missionary and care during this time, it's time for the poor Dao to practice, and there will be a period later!" After Wang Chongyang finished speaking, he bowed deeply, walked out of the door, and disappeared from Qu Ping's field of vision.

Qu Ping let Wang Chongyang go away, and said in his heart, this is not just your Wang Chongyang's creation.

Qu Ping went out, called Qi to accompany him, and said in a loud voice: "Let's go, go back to Beijing!" ”

"Where's Brother Wang?"

"He? Ascended! Hahaha! Qu Ping laughed, leaving everyone with a puzzled face.

Ying Emperor City, in the imperial study of Emperor Zhaogou. As soon as Qu Ping returned to the capital, he immediately went to report to the emperor non-stop, and it happened that the emperor would not go to court today.

After listening to Qu Ping's narration from beginning to end, Zhao Gou said: "This time, I went far away from the fortress, not only to subdue the lost land, but also to collect the Xizhou Uighurs, which is very gratifying to me. In addition, we won over Li Changyou, no, now it should be called Li Changzuo, which strengthened our side and weakened Western Xia. Li Changzuo knew the Western Xia well, and when the time came, he was a sharp weapon to knock on the door and seize the door. I am a little uneasy, that is, you handed over the elite division of Gyeonggi Road to the command of Jiang Boyan and Li Changzuo, and whipped the Tibetans, which is really a big risky move. I'm worried that stealing chickens won't make me lose my rice! ”

"The emperor's foresight is naturally correct, but the minister believes that these two people will definitely be able to return with their whole bodies, and maybe they can bring back good news. Since the Tang Dynasty, Tubo has been a plate of scattered sand, and at this time, he will not take advantage of his illness to kill him, but he is afraid that the spring breeze will blow and give birth again! Qu Ping said.

Zhao Gou sighed: "The matter has come to this, only pray for their triumph." There is no major event in the DPRK and China recently, and you will come back to report to me, and you should go back to the house as soon as possible to see your Duchess of the Kingdom. It's going to be in labor in March, so let's go back and have a good rest! ”

"Emperor Xie, the minister retires!"

Xiao Lu has been pregnant for more than eight months, with a big belly, walking with swollen legs, sitting with swollen waist, in short, it is torment. Fortunately, Tang Shenwei often came to ask for pulse, and the mother and son were safe.

When Qu Ping returned home, the two of them held back their excitement, carefully listened to the fetal movements in their stomachs, and were overjoyed.

"If you are pregnant, you should lie on your left side. It's been more than eight months, and I still need to move around a lot. Qu Ping said.

Xiao Lu said: "Walking around is increasing, but why lie on the left side? ”

“…… I listened to the experts, in short, this is good for the fetus. ”

"Oh." Xiao Lu said obediently.

"Doctor Tang takes the pulse, did you say that it was a man or a woman?" Qu Ping asked.

"No, do you want a boy or a girl?"

"Girl, if you're as pretty as you are, you don't have to work around."

"That might be going to disappoint you."

Qu Ping was pleasantly surprised: "What? Is it a son? ”

"I'll just say, you're still patriarchal!"

"Where, I was surprised. I said that if you like men and women, you will have something to say. Okay, now you're a protected animal like a giant panda, and whatever you say is what you say. ”

"Are pandas precious?"

Qu Ping thought that it may be that giant pandas were not uncommon in the Song Dynasty, or that people did not pay enough attention to rare species. Qu Ping said: "Of course, how about we set up a wildlife conservation association in the future, with you as the president?" ”

Xiao Lu pinched Qu Ping's nose and said, "You have a lot of gimmicks!" ”

"I've been away for so long, is there anything big going on in the family?"

"There are no big things, every day is a step-by-step plan, eating, sleeping and sleeping. Xiao Shuzhen has been studying very hard, Sister Cailian gave birth to a fat boy, and she often comes to pass on the scriptures and send treasures, and Yi'an Jushi also occasionally comes to visit the door. By the way, if you want to talk about big things, Lord Ping'er often comes to visit me twice in three days, is it a big deal? ”

Qu Pingqi said: "She often comes to see you? ”

"yes, I came here yesterday. Oh, she sent the plum. ”

Zhao Ping'er has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, why does she often come for?

But I heard Xiao Lu say again: "I think, the county lord wants to fulfill your door and two rooms." Because with her identity and character, it is impossible for her to be small and big, but only to sit on an equal footing. ”

Qu Pingtou Avenue: "One door and two rooms, I also have one room and two living rooms, and the baby will be added to a bathroom when he is born!" Don't think about it, tomorrow I will go to find out her tone and let her stop her evil thoughts as soon as possible! ”

Xiao Lu was puzzled: "The county lord doesn't dislike you for having a wife, and is willing to commit himself to marrying you, but you still refuse others first." ”

Qu Pingxin said, this lady is too reasonable, but I, an outstanding person with advanced education in the new era, how can I accept the outdated concept of polygamy. Qu Ping said: "I am a dignified national prince, a second-class member, where did she get married!" Besides, it's all your imagination! Don't say it, I'm angry. ”

Xiao Lu said in his heart, Xianggong didn't even accept the county lord, he just wanted to be with me, and he was very moved in his heart. She smiled, "Okay, okay, I misunderstood." I was wrong and begged for your forgiveness. ”

Zhao Ping'er was talking about Zhao Ping'er here, and when Zhao Ping'er heard that Qu Ping was back, her heart was pounding and almost jumped out of her chest, and finally reason finally defeated her impulse and decided to go to him in a few days.

Above the court, the civil and military officials learned that the Lord Yongguo had reaped fruitful results, and congratulated the emperor on his great blessings, and the revitalization of the Great Song Dynasty was expected. The courtiers were naturally more confident, and they all swore in their hearts that they would work harder and harder, but they would not let the credit be taken away from others.

There was also good news from Lu Ji's side, the first cannon was finally successfully fired, and the power shook the sky, and Qu Ping named this cannon "Megatron". The next step was to set up an artillery battalion, and Qu Ping personally taught and guided the principles of artillery and actual combat techniques.

Now that we have the successful experience, the rest of the matter will fall into place step by step, and we will strive to build dozens of them and equip every army. However, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and only with cannons, there must be enough gunpowder to support them.

As a last resort, Qu Ping asked the emperor to issue a decree that, in addition to stipulating that fireworks can be set off on major holidays and national anniversaries, no department or individual may use gunpowder preparations at will at any time, and special purposes must be approved before they can be used. For red and white ceremonies, firecrackers are used to really beat the bamboo. While reducing costs, it also reduces the occurrence of explosion disasters.

With advanced weapons, you have to be useful.

In the secret basement of Qu Mansion, Li Cailian made a report to Qu Ping.

Li Cailian said: "On the Western Xia side, the personnel in the room have penetrated perfectly, but because of the Li Changyou incident, some heavyweight tasks are not easy to perform. ”

Qu Ping tapped the table with his fingers and said, "The Western Xia side will continue to work hard, but be in control, don't startle the snake." The most important thing to solve is still the Jin country's side. Did Qin Hui send back the news from there? ”

"Our men have already joined him. He had already found out that the person who attacked the Emperor Taishang and you last year was instructed by the Golden Vultures. ”

Qu Ping nodded: "This is what I expected." ”

"Wanyan Zongfu was temporarily alienated by the Golden Emperor because he made a vain agreement with you. But he was deeply ingrained and talented, and he was soon activated again. Li Cailian said.

"Wanyan Zongfu is an old fox, if Wanyan Zongfu can take the position, it will be greatly beneficial to us."

"Although Wanyan Zongxian's status has risen, there are two aspects of military and political, one is mastered by Wanyan Zongbi of the Golden Vulture Technique, and the other is assisted by Wanyan Zongfu, he only takes care of some logistics work."

Qu Ping's eyes lit up and said: "Although the logistics are not obvious, but it has the effect of seven inches of the snake, if it is well targeted, there will be unexpected effects!" ”

Li Cailian said: "I understand, I will immediately instruct the room to act in secret." ”

"I'm relieved to have you in charge of the work." Qu Ping turned to say, "Is it easy to take the baby, I'll go see my little nephew another day." ”

"Thank you big brother for your concern, the kid is all right."

"It's really hard for you, your body hasn't recovered yet, and you have to take care of these tedious tasks."

"No problem, I know, this is the trust that my eldest brother has in me."

"It's good that you understand. You go back first, and I'll let you know if there's anything going on. ”

Qu Ping was in the courtyard, leisurely playing with a few birds from the East given by the emperor, throwing in a handful of rice from time to time to feed, and muttering to himself: "Bird, bird, you are really lucky, many people don't even have to eat......

"Then don't waste food." Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

Qu Ping turned around and saw that it was Zhao Ping'er, the county lord.

Zhao Ping'er saw Qu Ping turn around, and she couldn't help but have a touch of shyness on her face, but she had a deep concentration, and quickly regained her former sassiness, and naturally looked at Qu Ping and smiled.

Qu Ping was also stunned and said: "The emperor's order is difficult to disobey, not only to eat well, but also to eat well." ”

After hearing this, Zhao Ping'er said slyly: "Is it difficult to disobey the emperor's order? Do you have to do whatever the emperor says? ”
