Chapter 42: There Is a 'River' in the Western Regions

In the early days, some people in the court proposed to send officials to Nanfuzhou, the reason was that Zhao Chen was now far away in Chang'an, and the post of assassin in Nanfu had been vacant for a long time, and all the affairs of a state were undertaken by Sima alone, which was really a bit unreasonable.

As a result, this proposal had just been put forward, and without waiting for anyone else to speak, Li Er was on it and refuted it on the spot.

After taking two classes in the morning, when he came back, Zhao Chen heard the news and sat there silent for a long time.

When Xiangcheng came to ask him if he wanted to go to the Qin Mansion, Zhao Chen shook his head and sent Xiangcheng over alone, while he sat there all afternoon until Xiangcheng came back from the Qin Mansion.

Nanfuzhou, has always been his, although nominally subordinate to the imperial court, Zhao Chen is also responsible for the history of assassination, but in fact, whether it is Zhao Chen or everyone in the court, subconsciously, they all think that Nanfu is Zhao Chen's.

But at this time, someone proposed to send officials to take over Nanfuzhou, although he was refuted by Li Er on the spot, but Zhao Chen was not stupid, how could he not see the catty in it.

Li Er couldn't wait, he was using this way to put pressure on Zhao Chen, and the purpose was naturally for what Zhao Chen was doing, the power of the gunpowder detonator had completely changed Li Er's sense of crisis.

As an emperor, now that he sees the powerful killing weapon in the hands of his courtiers, no matter how much Li Er trusts Zhao Chen, this kind of thing will not be let go.

I felt a little uncomfortable, Zhao Chen could understand Li Er's mentality, but it was uncomfortable, whether it was hellfire or today's gunpowder detonator. Zhao Chen never thought about not taking it out.

Because of the artifact of the supermarket, Zhao Chen did everything from the moment he came to Datang. It is to make Datang strong, strong enough to change the axle of history, and not repeat those historical tragedies.

However, he took it out, but not to the royal family, there are some things he can give to the royal family for free, such as steel, glass, gold mines, etc. But there are some things, but no matter what, they are not willing to give them to the royal family.

Because. He doesn't trust the royal family, in the era of the country of the world, if it is a king like Li Er, Zhao Chen will not hesitate to take it out. Unfortunately, it wasn't.

So. Once these big killers have the royal dominance, maybe one day in the future, they will become a disaster in the lobby. At that time, everything he does now will be reduced to ashes!

What Zhao Chen has always hoped is that everything can be balanced, even if it is the Academy Palace, the Military Academy is still these epoch-making killing weapons. It is much better in the hands of the majority than in the hands of the royal family.

Get up on the wrong side of the bed. After a hasty dinner, he went back to his room in silence, took a shower, and got into the quilt.

After a while, Xiangcheng, who had taken a bath, also returned to the room, his hair was still wet, like a snake, silently burrowing into the quilt.

A hand wandered restlessly on Zhao Chen's body, and his wet lips kissed from Zhao Chen's chest to his neck, and finally, he was pressed under Zhao Chen's body by turning over, and his wet lips were then covered by Zhao Chen's lips.

Zhao Chen's body was hot and terrifying, and a beast-like roar came out of his throat, desperately tossing on Xiangcheng's body.

And Xiangcheng's hands hugged Zhao Chen's head tightly, tilted his head slightly, and let out a suppressed cry in his throat.

A room full of spring, the room is filled with passion, and the bed makes a sound that is not burdened!

After a long time, when everything calmed down, Zhao Chen hugged Xiangcheng tightly, kissed Xiangcheng's forehead lightly, and whispered: "I will enter the palace tomorrow!" ”

"Hmm!" Xiangcheng squeezed his body into Zhao Chen's arms, and made a humming sound in his nose, but after a while, he whispered: "Let's have a child!" ”

"Smack!" In response to Xiangcheng, Zhao Chen slapped her on the buttocks, and then Zhao Chen, who listened to it, said neatly: "Sleep!" ”

There was nothing to say all night, and when it was dawn the next day, Zhao Chen still went to the school palace, and when he came back from the school palace, he changed into a robe, and under Xiangcheng's worried gaze, he got into the carriage of Muqiu and went all the way to the palace.

At this time, Li Er, who was in the Ganlu Palace, heard a report from the inner servant, saying that when Zhao Chen, the Marquis of Chang'an, asked to see him, Li Er, who was calm and comfortable on weekdays, was slightly stunned at this moment.

In fact, these days Li Er is waiting for Zhao Chen to enter the palace, Zhao Chen does not come, Li Er looks very anxious, and now, when he heard that Zhao Chen is coming, Li Er seems hesitant again.

"Xuan!" After being silent in the main hall for a long time, Li Er finally took a long breath, looked at the attendant who came in to report, and spoke.

Subsequently, all the palace people in the Ganlu Hall were retired, and Li Er knew Zhao Chen, so Li Er was a little not optimistic about what would happen next.

Zhao Chen, who had just retired from the palace and was dressed in a purple robe, came in from outside the hall, bowed slightly to Li Er, who was sitting behind the imperial case, and said, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

"Sit!" Li Er sat behind the imperial case, pointed to a futon next to Zhao Chen, looked at the scar on Zhao Chen's face, and asked, "Are the injuries okay?" ”

"It's just a skin injury, it's been fine for a long time!" When Zhao Chen heard Li Er's words, he raised his hand and touched the scar on his face that had already formed a long time, and said with a smile at Li Er.

"I've been busy these days!" Li Er waited until Zhao Chen sat down, looked at Zhao Chen and said as if he was a little speechless: "I don't have time to ask about you, now that you are here, tell me what happened that day!" ”

"Hmm!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he hummed lightly at Li Er, and then, in the main hall, he told Li Er about the events of that day.

In fact, Li Er may not be clear about these things, Zhao Chen naturally understands it in his heart, but he still told Li Er the original one.

The atmosphere in the hall was very good, Zhao Chen was talking seriously, Li Er was listening carefully, but only the two of them understood in their hearts that such an atmosphere was only temporary.

"You say that thing is called a detonator?" Sure enough, when Zhao Chen finally talked about the detonator, Li Er, who was originally a little careless, suddenly sat up straight, looked at Zhao Chen with burning eyes, and asked.

"yes!" Zhao Chen sighed in his heart, met Li Er's scorching gaze, and explained: "It is a kind of saltpeter extracted, and finally after countless preparations, it forms a detonator!" ”

Such an explanation, Zhao Chen had already explained it to Lao Qin and Cheng Yanjin as early as when he was in the Qin Mansion, but now that he was asked by Li Er, he had to explain it again to Li Er.

"Actually extracted from saltpeter?" Li Er didn't care much about anything else, except for the saltpeter extraction, he was particularly concerned, after hearing this, he was slightly stunned, looked at Zhao Chen and asked.

There are many saltpeters in Datang, but no one would have thought that there could be such a powerful thing hidden in saltpeter, which obviously shocked Li Er.

"Yes!" When Zhao Chen heard Li Er's words, he looked at Li Er and said with a smile: "Actually, not only can this gunpowder be extracted from saltpeter, but also the hell fire can also be extracted from other things!" ”

"What's that?" When Li Er heard Zhao Chen's words, he couldn't help but gasp, looked at Zhao Chen, and asked in disbelief.

"It's a black oil!" Zhao Chen looked at Li Er, hesitated slightly, and then said: "However, this thing is not in Datang, and Weichen can't get it now!" ”

Hellfire, gunpowder detonators, no matter which of these two things, as long as they are taken out, they are already the most terrifying things in the world.

Now, hearing that the black oil that can extract the hellfire is not in Datang, Li Er suddenly looked at Zhao Chen with some disappointment and asked, "That black oil, since it is not in Datang, where will it be?" ”

"Western Regions!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he looked at Li Er without hesitation and said, "As long as you cross the Green Ridge, that thing will flow in the river!" ”

Of course, oil is not only in West Asia, but the problem is that the thing is hidden underground, with Zhao Chen's current ability, but he has no ability to drill from underground, so he directly told Li Er that the thing is in the Western Regions.

Li Er's face was a little pale, obviously frightened by Zhao Chen's words that flowed in the river.

Li Er was naturally clear about the power of hellfire, but he never thought that what he regarded as the most terrifying thing in the world would flow unscrupulously in the river in the Western Regions.

There is nothing more frightening to Li Er than this news, there are some things that can't be made up in the brain, as long as the brain makes up a little, it will scare people's souls out of the body, Li Er at this moment is in this state.

"Is this serious?" Li Er's face was pale, and when he looked at Zhao Chen, there was fear in his eyes that could not be concealed.

"Naturally, it's serious!" Zhao Chen saw Li Er's expression, smiled slightly in his heart, and felt that it was almost there, so he looked at Li Er and said: "However, Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, although there is more black oil in the Western Regions, but if you want to become a hellfire in the hands of Wei Chen, I'm afraid no one has done it yet!" ”

When Li Er heard Zhao Chen's words, there was obviously a sigh of relief in his expression, and when he heard Zhao Chen say that the black oil was flowing in the river in the Western Regions, it really made Li Er's back chill.

Next, under the urging of Li Er, Zhao Chen explained the process of how to extract oil concisely, and Li Er listened very carefully when Zhao Chen explained.

Seeing Li Er's serious expression, Zhao Chen finally smiled, since he decided to come to the palace, Zhao Chen has actually been thinking about how to tell Li Er about this.

Now, after seeing Li Er's attitude, obviously fearful of his words, he was relieved, only by letting Li Er transfer the sense of crisis out, the next thing would be much easier.

"Before the people of the Western Regions can react, Datang must control the Western Regions!" Listening to Zhao Chen say a lot of words, when it came to the end, Li Er looked at Zhao Chen and asked with burning eyes.

"That's right!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he smiled at Li Er and said: "This kind of thing is not unique to Weichen, as time goes by, someone in the Western Regions will find this kind of thing sooner or later!" ”

"And when are you going to start taking it out?" Li Er looked at Zhao Chen with a somewhat solemn expression.

Finally when it was time to talk about business, Zhao Chen heard Li Er's solemn tone, suddenly took a light breath, looked at Li Er and said with a smile: "As long as Your Majesty is willing, Weichen can start anytime and anywhere!" (To be continued.) )
