Chapter 218: Making a Villain
Nowadays, along the trade route established by the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce, a large number of gunpowder raw materials and fire oil are continuously transported into Lingzhou City. These things turned into explosives and gunpowder bombs in the hands of several masters at the fastest speed.
And what the hell is the gunpowder bomb, not to mention Sun Yufu, even Cheng Chumo and they don't know. Everyone avoids this thing, and naturally Sun Yufu will not know what this thing is.
But he didn't know, and Ge Shuming didn't know either, which meant that Sun Yufu could be completely nonsense.
"I've heard of that thing, and I've heard that it was the major general who sealed the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder in the iron. But this thing is too mysterious, I can't say for sure. "Sun Yufu seems to have turned into an old god stick, and he is also very powerful when he flickers. However, apparently Ge Shuming agrees with this statement.
He laughed heartily, raised his glass to Sun Yufu again, and then drank it.
A breakfast banquet is enjoyed by two people, and Sun Yufu will pull up whatever is mysterious. In the end, it is estimated that Qin Ze has three heads and six arms, and Ge Shuming will not doubt it.
Unlike Ge Shuming's side knocks, Sun Yufu did not mention a word about Turkic matters. Sun Yufu still understands this point.
Sun Yufu didn't care how much salt could be sold, but when he handed over the salt to the other party, Zhou Cheng sent someone to secretly follow.
Table salt is different from grain and grass, and such a large amount will definitely be transported to the place where the army is. And before that, all they had to do was wait quietly.
They are waiting, and Cheng Chumo is also waiting. He was waiting for Cheng Huailiang to come back, this was the eighth day of Qin Ze's disappearance, and Cheng Huailiang had now completely turned into a hungry wolf.
The blood-red eyes almost dug three feet into the ground around Lingzhou City, and the whole person seemed to have reached the point where people and animals were not close.
Now that there are more and more Turkic scouts, Cheng Chumo is also worried that Cheng Huailiang will have any accidents. He doesn't get along much with Qin Ze, although he admires Qin Ze very much in his heart, but it is far from the point where Cheng Huailiang shares life and death.
A puff of smoke rose in the distance, and Cheng Huailiang's group gradually revealed. Still found nothing, Cheng Huailiang sat on the horse, and Chen Yanguan on the side followed closely on the side, for fear that he would fall off the horse directly if he was unstable.
"Lord Captain, let's rest, and leave the rest to the brothers." Chen Yanguan also couldn't bear Cheng Huailiang to torture himself like this, and comforted.
Cheng Huailiang's face was pale, his lips were cracked a few times, and only a pair of eyes were like hungry wolves. Qin Ze had saved his brother's life, if it wasn't for Qin Ze at the beginning, Yan'er Mountain was in the middle of the mountain and couldn't figure out if he could break through.
Before leaving Chang'an, his father told him that he must protect Qin Ze's safety. Now that this is happening, how can he explain it to his father. How do you explain to your brother Wang Fu?
Cheng Huailiang still didn't make it to Lingzhou City, and his body shook and fell off his horse. Fortunately, Chen Yan, who was on the side, was quick to see and quickly dismounted to catch Cheng Huailiang.
Some people are happy and some are sad, while others are sad and happy.
For example, the current Li Er, he saw with his own eyes that the black salt that could poison people before turned into white salt.
He had tasted it, and it tasted so salty that it was hard to imagine that he, who was born as the king of a country, would now be so excited that he would cry because of a pinch of table salt.
Salt! If this method is vigorously implemented, then Datang will completely get rid of the dilemma of lack of salt in the future!
It stands to reason that if he gets this method of refining salt, Li Er definitely wants to celebrate with the sky, so how can he worry? You know, the problem lies in the table salt.
The last holy decree to seal Qin Ze had just been transmitted back to Lingzhou City, but now that Qin Ze had given Li Er such a big surprise, even he didn't know how to reward Qin Ze this time.
According to Li Er's meaning, with this merit, at least Qin Ze should be rewarded with a founding county uncle. But throughout the history of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been a person who has been sealed twice in a month.
"Your Majesty, the magic of salt refining is in the Tang Dynasty. It is reasonable to give a knighthood. The eldest grandson of the old fox on the side, Wuji, could not see Li Er's thoughts.
From Li Er's unclosed mouth, he knew how much Li Er liked Qin Ze.
Some people agree with it, and some people oppose it, and the person who opposes it is naturally Du Laohei. He arched his hand at Li Er and said: "Mu Xiu will urge Lin Feng, although Qin Ze is in the Tang Dynasty, he is not as good as a weak crown." If it is sealed repeatedly, I am afraid that it will provoke other people's remarks, and please think twice. ”
This feeling of pain and happiness is really good, even Li Er couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't mistake him at the beginning, and he really gave me such a big surprise to Datang." ”
Just when everyone was holding their own words, Ruan Quan on the side suddenly walked in in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is moving."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present instantly fell silent. Then they all walked towards the main hall of Lizheng.
On July 21 of the second year of Zhenguan, a baby cried in the Lizheng Hall. Li Zhi, the third son of Empress Changsun, was officially born, the future son of the Tang Dynasty, was born at this time, which directly pushed Li Er's interest to the extreme.
So Li Er directly waved his hand, and the matter of sealing Qin Ze was decided.
The whole world celebrates, and the sky is talented, and there will be visions. Legend has it that when Empress Changsun was pregnant with Li Zhi, she once dreamed of a strange man, who caught a lot of pheasants, turtledoves, and a very beautiful parrot with a net, which was sold on the street.
Seeing that these birds were very spiritual, the eldest grandson queen sold all the birds. Then they were all released, but the parrot flew over the mountains and flew southwest until it was nowhere to be seen.
Everyone knows what the southwest represents, so Li Zhi's nickname is Pheasant Slave, which also has a deep meaning.
Of course, it's good to listen to this thing, after all, who is the emperor doesn't want to put gold on his face, right?
Qin Ze's sealed decree arrived in Zhongshu Province and was soon learned by the Cui family. His Majesty gave birth to a prince, which was nothing, but there was another holy decree they cared about.
Qin Ze was crowned as the founding county uncle, and he was sealed twice in a month! What this means is self-evident.
Even Cui Lun was speechless in shock when he got the news. Qin Ze is already dead, and it is estimated that the news will reach Chang'an soon, and the Cui family has even thought of countermeasures. But now......
Cui Lun sat on top of the main hall with a gloomy face, and Cui Jing stood below, both of them with gloomy faces.
"The birth of the prince is celebrated by the whole world, and no one can disturb His Majesty's interest at this time. If the news of Lingzhou City comes, what should we do? Cui Jing held a hand-copied version of the holy decree in his hand, and every word on it was clearly written. If it weren't for the fact that his Cui family had someone in Zhongshu Province, I am afraid that he would not have been able to get this news at all.
"Presumably, Qin Ze must have died at this time, so for the sake of today, I should suppress the news for the time being, and wait for the prince to pass a hundred days, and then inform Your Majesty of this matter." Cui Lun's eyes were gloomy, and Li Er's sealing of Qin Ze also made him realize that something was wrong, he originally thought that Qin Ze was just a disguise, but if this disguise was equipped with fangs, it would be a mourning stick!
In the Cui family's study on the other side, the old man of the Cui family is looking at the good words written by his grandson with a pampered face.
The old man of the Cui family, who claimed to be terminally ill in bed, had a tough body at this time.
"He who bends himself will be able to deal with the many, and he who is victorious will meet the enemy. Self-cultivation, Ling'er, you are still a little worse after all. ”
Cui Ling stood aside, since the last time Luyue Tower, Cui Ling was taught by Old Man Cui alone.
"My grandson has been taught." is different from the flamboyant personality in the past, but now Cui Ling is much more restrained.
The old man of the Cui family smiled kindly at Cui Ling. He was about to continue talking when there was a knock at the door.
It turned out that Cui Lun and the two had been discussing in the main hall for a long time, but they still couldn't make up their minds. I had to come to find the grandfather of the Cui family, the old man of the Cui family.
Old Man Cui frowned and let the two of them into the study. waved his hand to make Cui Ling retreat, which allowed Cui Lun to tell everything.
"Five surnames and seven hopes, now except for my Cui family, the other four families do not like to enter the office. It's not a day or two since Your Majesty wants to move my family, but even if the branches are cut off, the foundation of my Cui family is still there. The Cui family, which has five prime ministers, cannot have the slightest retreat. A little concubine actually made you panic. ”
The old man of the Cui family is as tough as ever, he has lived for sixty or seventy years, and the experience of the old man is definitely not comparable to Cui Lun and his juniors.
"The Cui family's face has been damaged, since you would come up with such a method, you are wrong about Jieshan."
Jieshan is Cui Lun's word, and when the old man said such a thing, he was immediately shocked that Cui Lun hurriedly bowed his head and said wrong.
The old man of the Cui family held Cui Lun's head with one hand and patted it lightly. His eyes were cold and he said: "Your Majesty wants to promote the upstart, and the Li family of Longxi is at ease." But the foundation of my Cui family is not something he can touch, and who my Cui family wants to get rid of, I never need His Majesty's consent. As long as I can block the mouths of the world, my Cui family will not fall for a thousand years!
Since you have done it, you must have a clear conscience, and the brother who died will be buried in a beautiful manner. ”
After saying this, the old man of the Cui family also withdrew the hand that was pressing on Cui Lun's head.
Yes, the country is easy to change, and the family is standing!
If Li Er is the dragon that soars for nine days, then these families are the thick clouds above the nine heavens.
The dragon soared for nine days, seemingly unrestrained, but if the clouds did not disperse, even the dragon would be alarmed by the divine thunder.
If you want to thunder, it will rain, especially in July. It was still a clear sky just now, and in the blink of an eye, the pouring rain poured down.
Fortunately, the foliage in this dense forest is abundant, so the actual raindrops that fall are not very big.
Erhu and Mangniu went hunting, and Qin Ze was happily opening his charcoal-burning earthen kiln.
He was really bored, and during the ten days he stayed here, Qin Ze not only burned all kinds of clay pots with clay, but even burned charcoal.
In the face of Qin Ze's powerful survival skills against the sky, even impermanence can only be dumbfounded sometimes. Even sometimes Impermanence thinks that if Qin Ze is thrown on a desert island, as long as he still has two hands, he will definitely not starve to death.
And if you let Qin Ze say it, if he is thrown on a desert island, not only will he not starve to death, but if he gives a few wives, he may be able to create a country!
