is worthy of Sima Guang, his head turns fast.

Zhao Zhen's physical condition is only clear to a few people, to be precise, it is the crown prince Zhao Shu, Wang Ning'an, and Prime Minister Ouyang Xiu, Han Jiang and Sima Guang are both in charge, according to reason, what Sima Guang is not clear, Han Jiang may not understand, but the problem is that from Han Jiang playing the card of Empress Cao, he is absolutely clear about the emperor's situation, and he knows it well!

Could it be that the Han family has eyeliner in the palace and can hear the news in the palace?

You must know that because of Zhao Yunrang's relationship, Zhao Zhen has always been very taboo for courtiers to put their hands into the palace, so he cleaned up several times, and it was necessary to ensure the safety of the palace...... Speaking of which, Han Jiang is too powerful!

Wang Ningan also frowned, and said in a low voice: "I have also deduced before, someone should spread the word for the palace and outside the palace, especially to get the approval of Queen Cao, maybe this person will reveal the safety of the dragon body to Han Jiang, but I am a little confused, I can't find this person!" ”

Sima Guang suddenly laughed, "Master, what's so difficult about this, can't you find out who Empress Cao has come into contact with?" ”

Wang Ningan shook his head, "Junshi, I do understand, since the last time His Royal Highness talked to the queen, Queen Cao has closed the door and chanted every day, except for the eunuchs who regularly send things to the palace, and the guards who are responsible for protection, there should be no one else, I can see these people of the queen, and there is no problem, I am also confused now." ”

"Wait!" Sima Guang immediately waved his hand, "Master, you seem to have forgotten someone. ”

"Who?"

"Second prince, Zhao Zonglin!"

Sima Guang spit out six words, which surprised Wang Ningan!

"Could it be him?"

Wang Ningan really didn't think of this second prince, the reason is very simple, Zhao Zonglin is not yet 12 years old this year, just a little kid, what can he do?

And don't forget, back then, Concubine Miao Guifei plotted against Queen Cao and almost killed Queen Cao, according to common sense, they should be enemies!

After the death of Concubine Miao, the second prince who was not yet ignorant was left to Queen Cao and let her be responsible for upbringing, in fact, many people suspect that Queen Cao will secretly attack and kill the child, not only to take revenge, but also to never suffer in the future!

But things are very strange, not only did Empress Cao not start, but on the contrary, she also raised the second prince with heart and raised the second prince to his teens.

Just four years ago, Zhao Zonglin also entered the Royal Academy, and I heard that the results were very good, at least much better than Zhao Shu back then.

As for the second prince, almost no one noticed him, maybe when he became an adult, let him leave the palace, make a prince, be quiet, and his life will be over.

Could it be him, constantly shuttling and delivering messages?

A child has such a mind, how did he connect with Han Jiang? Also, how could Empress Cao trust him? This thing seems to be very simple, right?

Sima Guang saw that his master's expression was entangled, and he couldn't help but say: "The royal heir has always been precocious, and he has been exposed to it, even if he is only eleven or twelve years old, he can't be taken lightly. And the biological mother of the second prince is also a scheming woman, and it is not uncommon for her to buy people's hearts at a young age. ”

Sima Guang has read so many history books, knows all about the prodigies of the past dynasties, and also thinks that the emperor has produced a genius child, which is not surprising.

"Junshi, even if the second prince really has this talent, the Han family will not believe him." Wang Ningan said: "Han Yi has been a governor of the country, and now his eight sons are all in important positions, and the Han family is prosperous and flourishing. These people, if you are the master of the Han family, do you dare to bet your future and fate on a child? ”

Sima Guang took a breath, "What Master taught is that it is indeed strange! So who convinced the Han family? ”

The master and apprentice thought about it for a long time, but they had no idea.

In this case, you can only use a stupid method to arrange eyeliner to star, and if there is a slight disturbance, you will immediately get through.

However, Wang Ningan does not like to wait passively.

In particular, Zhao Zhenlong is in poor health and may die at any time.

In this kind of fatal time, we must grasp the initiative, seize the opportunity, and not fall into the calculations of the opponent!

Sima Guang is very combative, and his work in making decisions has always been a big book, and he is also ready to leave a mark in history!

"Master, what are we going to do now? Whoever you want to arrest, just command! ”

Wang Ningan snorted, "No one will catch it!" We need to make more friends and make fewer enemies now, and you still think my life is too comfortable, right? It's okay to wait, if you have to provoke a fight with the big clans in Hebei, you are not afraid, and you accidentally capsize the boat? ”

Sima Guang was so stunned that he had nothing to say, he was also aggrieved, who let Master you open up the Western Regions, and the gold is rolling in, if we don't take the lead and let others take the lead, then we will only cry!

"Let me ask you, is there a way to pull the Han family over?"

"This ......" Sima Guang was even more difficult, "Master, we want the gold standard, and people insist on the copper standard, and there is no way to reconcile it...... And this copper is useless, if we exchange it with the Han family, we will suffer! ”

Sima Guang calculated an account for Wang Ning'an, and in the past, there were two biggest uses of copper, one was copper coins and the other was copper mirrors. The bronze mirror has been abolished by Wang Ning'an, and the copper coin will also be abolished.

Without these two items, the demand for copper was greatly reduced, and except for a few bronze objects, copper was not needed anywhere else.

What can you do if you don't scrap a worthless thing?

After Sima Guang finished speaking, he spread his hands and made a helpless gesture.

But Wang Ning'an, suddenly had a ridiculous feeling, my God, copper is useless!

Sima Guang, what's in your brain?

Wang Ningan suddenly jumped up, took out a few drawings from under a pile of things, and placed them in front of Sima Guang for him to see!

"I tell you, copper is not only useful, but also useful!"

When dealing with Wei Minglangyu, Wang Ningan's army had assault rifles, and he also made great contributions.

The military industry has been researching firearms for a long time, especially after the success of the assault rifle, which has received a large investment, and dexterous craftsmen have built two bronze cannons, and the experiment has been successful.

It's just that copper is used as currency, and the imperial court has strict rules on its use, and if you want to build artillery on a large scale, you need to convince the imperial court, so it was delayed.

Who would have thought that in the eyes of many people, the precious copper would be eliminated and become a waste product!

It's a terrible thing!

It's time to fight!

When Wang Ningan handed over the structural diagram of the artillery to Sima Guang, Guangguang was dizzy, although he was smart, but he was really not sensitive enough to the technical field.

"Master, what the hell is this?"

"Something good!"

Wang Ningan said: "This is a tube made of bronze, which can shoot out lead pellets or flowering bullets through the explosive power of gunpowder, and the power is incomparable, and ten bed crossbows may not be able to catch up with a cannon!" ”

"Ahh

Sima Guang's eyes were shocked, "It's really so powerful?" ”

"Hmmm! Didn't you just mention immigration? I'm not a soft-hearted person, but it's too risky to drive the people out. But if we can develop more powerful firearms, such as large artillery, or firearms that can be held in your hand! In that way, an ordinary person, as long as he trains for a few months, can fight against the condor shooters of the grassland! Even if you can't go one-on-one, you can always win if you add up to ten or eight! ”

Wang Ningan said: "Firearms, immigration, Jin Yuan...... All three are indispensable! Your thoughts are too impatient, too crude! ”

Wang Ningan was unceremonious, criticizing his students.

At this moment, Sima Guang is happy and convinced, and he admires the five bodies to the ground!

Wonderful, this is simply turning decay into magic, a stroke of genius!

Originally, because of the lack of a combination of interests, he couldn't see the usefulness of those copper coins, so Sima Guang wanted to completely abolish them, but he never imagined that the copper coins could be collected to make copper cannons.

The average weight of copper coins is four catties, and one thousand pounds is 4,000 catties!

The copper coins stored by the Hebei clan are more than tens of millions!

In other words, these copper coins alone can mint more than tens of thousands of cannons!

"Master, does Da Song need so many artillery?"

"Of course you do!" Wang Ningan gritted his teeth and said: "Think about it, a big ship must be equipped with hundreds of artillery!" Now I'm just worried that there won't be enough copper! Where will there be too much copper! ”

Sima Guang thought seriously for a long time, and he said tentatively: "Master, I think we should continue to lower the price of copper now, especially the price of copper, and then buy the bottom of the dip and make a lot of money!" ”

"Earn your head!"

For the first time, Wang Ningan felt that it was not a good thing for his apprentice to be too smart.

"I'll tell you, now is the alternation of the old and the new, I don't have the heart to fight with the big clans in Hebei, nothing is as important as stability and peace, everything will be said after the overall situation has been decided! You go and spread the word to Han Zihua now, tell him that we can buy copper coins at a high price and not let them suffer, as long as he is willing to take a step back, everyone is still friends. ”

Sima Guang didn't dare to disobey Master's order and got up immediately, but he quickly thought that Master's book had to wait for the general trend to be decided! Could it be a hint that when the crown prince succeeds to the throne, he will settle the account with the Han family?

Well, that's it!

Master Dare is also a person who loves to find accounts!

Sima Guang was even more scared, he had better be a good student, otherwise he would really be spanked!

Just when Sima Guang was trying to find a way to contact Han Jiang, in the deep palace, Empress Cao read the scriptures a few times, and then slowly stood up from the mat, and came out of the Buddhist hall, there was a young figure, who was busy with her work, and set up white porridge and a few side dishes for her.

This person is the second prince Zhao Zonglin!

How like!

Empress Cao suddenly remembered her own son Zhao Shu, it was ten years ago, the little things were picked by herself and made wine for herself, so many years have passed, Queen Cao still remembers the aroma of wine!

Alas!

It's really unbelievable that the meat that fell from his body is not the same heart as himself, and he can't even compare to the little guy in front of him! If only he were his own flesh and blood!

Empress Cao was suddenly taken aback by the thought she had born......
