Changle Palace Immortal Palace. "How has the queen mother been in good health in recent days?" Liu Qi rushed over to visit the Queen Mother after participating in the early dynasty of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and entered the palace gate to give a salute. "Well, my body has been getting better recently, and my body is a lot lighter" The Queen Mother didn't look back, and continued to look at the picture of the flying phoenix under the lights behind her with her back to the door, and replied casually. "Your Majesty, feel free to sit down, there are only two of you and me in this hall today." Liu Qi still sat in the position where he usually sits, also looked at the painting, and said: "It is indeed a good painting, with far-reaching artistic conception, if my father is alive, I will definitely applaud it", "It's a pity that Hu Hou was born ten years late." The phoenix coils its wings and travels to the mountains and rivers to bless the world, which is exactly what the first emperor wanted to do but did not finish. One picture has two artistic conceptions, I don't know if Your Majesty can experience it? Liu Qi also stared at the painting, and said for a long time: "The phoenix is a female and a male, one weak and one strong, all of them are ancient divine beasts, could it be that one means that the father and the queen mother are blessed in the world, and the other is that the father and the emperor continue to me?" ”。“ I think it is, I thought that the phoenix was a couple, but this painting of the phoenix and the phoenix is inseparable, but the strong and the weak can be separated, the intention is very high, and the old body admires it. Oh, Your Majesty, the old man heard that the Imperial Doctor ordered the entire family of 23 to be killed by the rangers, but is there such a thing? The Queen Mother later turned around and said. Well, this is indeed the case, a family of 23 except for the maids and servants were all slaughtered, and their bodies were also very fast, except for the imperial doctor's order, everyone else was killed in one blow. If it weren't for the imperial doctor's order to leave a guilty letter and a case, I would not have known that there are such despicable people in the world, who have killed 19 lives in 7 households with my hands, and all of them are the people I want to appoint in the opening of the dynasty, including the righteous imperial doctor who ordered me to destroy the door. "It's good to know, that's wrong, the old man looks like this, did he ever suggest killing Hu Hou, did he also write a book to cut the military power of Liangwang County?" "But there is this matter, the matter of the imperial doctor's order, so that I also understand some truth. There are many sycophants in the DPRK and China, and the mistake is only one of them, and I have ordered the court lieutenant to find out one by one, and the Cui clan in Hebei has now issued an edict to exterminate the clan, and today I still know that there are as many as 100 members of the Cui clan in the DPRK." "Although what this son does is incompatible with the law, he does it well, and he kills multiple birds with one stone, just like the meaning in this painting, he is also a rare talent, but he acts a little recklessly." "I have ordered the court lieutenant not to pursue this person, even if it is a strict investigation, it is difficult to investigate and deal with this person, there is no beginning and end to do things, the swordsmanship is very fast, there are 8 people, all died under a sword, there is no trace of climbing over the wall and entering the house."

A courtyard in the north of Chang'an City. "Daddy, that doctor is the one who saved me and Juan Tang, why didn't Daddy thank him?" "Haha, my good daughter, my father will naturally not rush to thank him, and after some time, if he can cure his father's long-term illness, he will naturally thank him." "Then take me, his wolf is very funny, doesn't bite, and is very human." "That's natural, give Daddy medicine quickly."

Zhongnan Villa, in the pavilion in front of the Beichen Building. Ouyang Xuan and Nie Ping were sitting face-to-face, eating breakfast, while Buick and Gu Li were each competing against a half-meter-long carp with spines. There was an account book on the table. "Brother Xian, let's take a look, or I'm a little uneasy for my brother." "Since Brother Nie is given carte blanche, he naturally believes that he can pass it, and he only needs to tell me how much food he has every month. The arithmetic methods and counting symbols I taught Brother Nie can be apprenticed. Build a school next to Zhuangzi, teach the orphans you bought first, as your apprentice, I am teaching some art of Gewu, let them work on new things, new methods, I don't know if Brother Nie can? "How good is this, it is the name of a virtuous brother, and it is worthy of being a brother", "Why do you and my brother talk about this. After the porcelain kiln was built, I quickly informed me that the house was too dim and not good for my eyes. In addition, the potatoes I gave to Brother Nie had to be dug in a cellar and hidden, so that they would not sprout and rot. There are still some seeds in the spring, find a good piece of land, medium and upper, and wait for the autumn to see if there is any output." Ouyang Xuan really didn't have confidence in the seeds of the transgenic I, he was originally an extreme reversal fighter, and he really didn't know the safety of the anti-lodging and insect-resistant lipids or proteins, or even hormones produced by plants through the transgenic I, especially this corn is even more difficult to say. "The porcelain kiln will be opened in two days, and the charcoal pointed out by the virtuous brother has also transported tens of thousands of stones, is it the coke oven painted by the virtuous brother?" "Build, just strictly follow my drawings for construction, there can be no cutting corners, otherwise sorry for future generations". "Everything is arranged by the virtuous brother". "I'll go to the barracks in a moment, and I'll be looking for me if there's something."

Before the meal was eaten, I felt that something was biting my coat, and when I looked back, Guli looked at herself pitifully, and Buick was roaring and stretching his neck to vomit. It's a fish bone piercing the throat, haha. Seeing that you still eat fish, I thought about it, so I quickly pointed Bick's mouth to the sun, broke it open and looked closely, and I really pierced one, very small, pulled it out with my hand, and shook it in front of the two of them. I went back to the pavilion and had breakfast. The white wolf brothers and sisters sniffed at the leftover fish, turned their heads back to the pavilion and lay on Ouyang Xuan's legs, rubbing their heads against their legs. "You two say that you should not eat the meat well, and that you will be better than the fish," he said, as he threw the large pieces of meat from his plate to the two of them, and told the servant to go to the kitchen and fetch them two legs of lamb for them. "Brother Xian, these two divine beasts, why do they listen to you?" "The womb I rescued from them also had some adventures, so it would be like this." "Wolves generally have one meal a day, but these two meals a day are definitely big consumers", "Also, really think of a way, otherwise they will really let me lose." By the way, let the farmers raise it, and say that they love to eat this meat." "The meat can't be eaten after a year old, and it's so fishy." "Haha, find a butcher tomorrow, I'll teach him how to get it, two or three months of pigs as long as they are castrated." "Get some seeds, distribute them to them, let them go all over the mountains and fields to graze, and get some sheep, if you can't go to the Xiongnu and Qiangdi, take my wolf skin and magic tooth crossbow arrows, and exchange them for cloth and millet every month." "Well, I'll do it." "I estimate that the war is about to begin, and Ma Bankai, who was proposed by the craftsman, should hurry up production. If the Huns can agree to the transportation of iron weapons, they really want to go to Qiuzi and get some good tough iron sabers." "How did Brother Xian know?" , "Didn't Brother Nie teach a certain month before last that if the foreign war does not come, the civil war will come." "I hope there will be no war". "It's not far away, I heard that Chao mistakenly wrote a letter of cutting the domain, and it's strange that the kings are not messy."

Seeing that the white wolf brother and sister each gnawed a leg of mutton, they got up and went to the infirmary to see the hunter first, he didn't have another fever today, and he was already able to get up, but Ouyang Xuan didn't let him speak, and his ribs were broken, so it was better to talk less. Look at this guy is obviously a master with a bow, and his right finger belly is very thick. I discussed with several doctors about an incurable disease in the hospital, and finally concluded that it was kidney stones, and prescribed a stone soup. Let the servants boil all the surgical instruments at high temperatures, and use them in case of appendicitis or something. Ouyang Xuan only knew a rough idea of the formula for hemp boiling, and the required medicinal materials were on the way to be transported. If you can't produce ether by yourself, it's a troublesome point, and you have to make concentrated sulfuric acid, as well as high-concentration alcohol, all of which are interlocking. As long as there are glassware, Ouyang Xuan is really not afraid of these, as a person who has served in the special forces, some things are really not difficult, a special soldier is not only physical exercise, but also mental power, sociology, natural science, physical chemistry and so on. It must be made by using the existing material conditions, and Ouyang Xuan used coal and pesticides to configure explosives at the border.

After coming out of the infirmary, he went back to put on his sword, hung up his crossbow and dagger, and rode to the camp. These soldiers are arranging tasks according to their first day, a total of three parts, some people in a group of 100 people, in the hanging wood array to practice reaction speed and strike strength and angle, now they are all step practice, and some people practice fast kills under the step, and the other part of people practice archery, shooting 300 steps of irregular movement of the target. Now I don't dare to let these guys ride horses to practice, one is that the horses in the Han region do not have saddles and horseshoes, and the stirrups are also one-sided, which is set up for the convenience of getting on the horse. All the harness is still being made and produced, and it will take half a month to complete the equipment.

Seeing Ouyang Xuan coming, all the soldiers hurriedly stopped training and gave a salute, Ouyang Xuan was very dissatisfied with their current training level. Gather everyone together and demonstrate the hanging wood array in person. Let a few soldiers who thought they were quick to react fight against themselves in the hanging wood array. Ouyang Xuan knocked down the soldiers with wooden knives with his bare hands. A number of essentials were highlighted. This can only be achieved by talent and long hours of training. Then he taught a lot of one-hit killing stunts, and now he teaches a set of skills that Ouyang Xuan summarized based on his previous experience, military physical fighting, southern boxing, Tai Chi and the Twenty-nine Saber Technique when he was practicing in the Tianshan Hot Spring Valley and the Naiban Tribe. I taught for a whole day, and I didn't order a meal until most of the people remembered it. After dinner, he demonstrated the role of the hanging wooden array in the night battle, and kept explaining. There are also night fighting techniques and so on. It's not that I hope they can learn it in one day, they have to keep instilling it repeatedly to make it possible for them to make what they teach a skill for themselves, and the food in the military camp is also good, it is all a big pot of rice fried with soybean oil, and there is meat at the meal. Due to the heavy physical exertion in the barracks, the system of two meals was changed to three meals, and the supply of eggs and meat was sufficient. At night, except for those on duty, they all slept, and two captains were called to teach them the art of fighting in battle formations immediately. Two more days of training tasks and training methods were assigned, and strength and physical training were added. Strength training is to lift stones and push-ups, physical training does not say that you get up in the morning to climb the mountain, climb the mountain before going to bed at night, to prevent knee injuries, and in order to train courage and reaction speed, the zipline is used to go down the mountain, and the ropeway is built according to Ouyang Xuan's requirements. The two lieutenants also opened a small stove separately, and at the same time, for their own training, they broke through several hanging wood formations, two-on-one empty-handed and hand-holding fights. It was already late at night before he and the lieutenant went back to the tent to sleep.

For more than ten consecutive days of intensive training, Ouyang Xuan ate and lived with the soldiers, and trained with him every day, the only difference was that others climbed the mountain, and he climbed the cliff with his bare hands. The church that will know the military body boxing, southern boxing, Tai Chi boxing and Tai Chi sword one by one. When I have nothing to do, I will find a guzheng to play for a while, and it is also a kind of satisfaction to listen to the crumbling soldiers who shake their heads and shout like a shout when the sound of the piano stops. As soon as the harness arrived, the horseshoes were all nailed, and then they began to train immediately, and all kinds of complex movements on the saddle were techniques that must be mastered, and the white wolf brothers and sisters did not waste their saliva every day. At the beginning, ninety-nine of the hundred horses rode through the hanging wooden formation, and one fell down as soon as they entered, and one only ran two more seats than them. Ouyang Xuan was more than enough to fight against a thousand people alone, but after a month, it gradually became difficult, and sometimes he even had to take a stick. Now that the battle array is charging and cooperating, Ouyang Xuan feels that he is no longer inferior to the level of the Golden Wolf Guard. It wasn't until one day that I had to take at least one stick against a team of 100 people that I felt a great sense of accomplishment.

The snow in the valley came much later than expected, it was already the beginning of December, and Ouyang Xuan had been training with his soldiers for the past three months, only occasionally returning to the mountain villa to have a look. Discuss the next business operation with Nie Ping, and explain the construction of a gunpowder workshop, mainly to purchase raw materials. Now a gunpowder workshop was built in the valley using a cave, and Ouyang Xuan personally taught a few clever soldiers to make explosives, which were explosives, not black powder. If a person who has served in the special forces does not know how to make explosives from existing materials, it is equivalent to a surgeon who does not know how many bones there are (the production method is the same as catching argali, I will not repeat it, in short, it is very simple, as long as there is sulfur, saltpeter, blue alum, lard, linen or cotton, and coal, it can be processed. It's not that I'm selling off, it's really impossible to describe it specifically. Then there was the hunter who looked at the infirmary, and the wound was too good to see any traces, but the fracture was still almost broken. Today is a one-by-one assessment of all subjects for everyone. eliminated 100 people, be their own full-time guards, and train alone with their own Xiaozao, and when Ouyang Xuan said the whereabouts of these 100 people, the vast majority of people were opposed, and it was true that they couldn't figure it out, the guards were the elite of the elite, and this was good, looking for the elite eliminated, they couldn't figure it out. Ouyang Xuan's words left everyone speechless and speechless. "My guard is just a symbol, a matter of face, you think about it, you can only hurt me once, what will happen to the others?"

Having nothing to say doesn't mean having no opinions, and asking these 100 people to pass their 1,000-person formation. Before Ouyang Xuan refused, these excited and somewhat swinging guys actually agreed. The final result is that the spiritual power is strong, and more than 20 people from an eliminated hundred-person team actually rushed out of the thousand-person army formation, although their bodies were already scarred. Buick and Gu Li are most willing to see this scene now, and without waiting for Ouyang Xuan's orders, they rushed over directly and gave those who were more seriously injured a saliva bath.

I have to go back today, and there are too many things waiting for me now, Nie Ping has sent someone to urge him several times last night, and after checking the arsenal, there are already about 5,000 catties of yellow crystal explosives and less than 1,000 catties of white block explosives. 3,000 newly made iron sabers that can break ordinary iron swords, 2,000 boxwood bows, and 10 three-bow bed crossbows. There are also tens of thousands of bows and arrows, I don't know if this Seven Kings Rebellion can be enough. Let the soldiers in charge of making explosives swear allegiance before taking the white wolf back to the villa. Ouyang Xuan was not afraid of the leakage of the firearm production method, because everyone was only responsible for one process, and they would go out after the processing, and they didn't know who it was to each other.

On Liu Qi's desk there are two folds written on paper. One is Ouyang Xuan's detailed training methods, content, words and deeds in the past three months. The other is Ouyang Xuan's economic situation and specific business projects transferred by the Queen Mother, as well as the proportion and amount of money and grain that Liu Qi can get. Liu Qi was very happy to see the military training, and even had the urge to seal the official. After reading the economic situation, Liu Qi was extremely disappointed in himself, in just three months, Ouyang Xuan's wealth was comparable to Shaofu's annual income. Just selling paper and soybean oil can top their own military expenses for a year, and a copper coin can buy a bunch of things, how can there be such huge profits? Liu Qi couldn't figure it out. Not to mention the sale of porcelain, which is very expensive, only the princes and nobles can buy good porcelain, and the common people can only buy coarse porcelain. This Nie is really a rare business talent. "Someone", Liu Qi shouted helplessly. Deacon Huang Men entered in response to the call, bowed and stood aside waiting for orders. "You go and wait for the main bookkeeper Nie Ping to see me......" Before the words were finished, the voice of the Queen Mother came from the door of the hall, "No need to summon" With the voice, the Queen Mother entered the palace with Cui'er's support. "You all stand down", "No", the palace maids and the yellow door serving on both sides withdrew from the temple gate and closed it outside.

"Why did you wait for the recommendation at the beginning, it seems that Your Majesty had hesitated and wanted a performance", said as he sat down on the desk on Liu Qi's left side. "The eldest son of the Nie family served as the pawn of Tang Muyi under the prostitute, and studied under his father, and he has some talents, if it wasn't for the prostitution's reluctance, he would have recommended it to His Majesty. This Nie is now extremely loyal and waiting, these accounts are still his eldest son inadvertently told the prostitute, this person does not leak, this His Majesty and the old body are beneficial, Your Majesty is ten benefits two, the old body and prostitutes are all ten benefits and one, so as to seal the mouth of Youyou. Hu Hou is also a person of extreme intelligence, and the craftsmen are all loyal to him, or he adopts a widow and orphan, and he does not hurt the foundation by moving one person, and his skills are still in his hands. This is no longer the reckless young man when he first came, he is very shrewd, and the people of the fiefdom are all loyal to him by his exemption and the grace of hanging pots. As long as it doesn't hurt my Han family, let it toss, do nothing with the sky, the term of office is natural, as long as it doesn't hurt the people, it doesn't hurt the Han, and the world is beneficial and the term of office is not in the rule of development? Do you still want to learn from those corrupt people, who speak grandly and despicable things? Rule by doing nothing, follow the law and nature, live with the people's livelihood, cultivate in oneself, and have a pure heart and few desires, so that ten thousand laws can be natural, can Your Majesty understand? ”

"I'm just annoyed that the speed of its rise will affect my Han family, and the methods of using and training soldiers are not compatible with the ancient law. Two thousand soldiers, now can rival the army of 10,000 people, I am only afraid that after me, I will provoke his anger and endanger the clan, this person will give him loyalty, and the reward is also loyalty, straightforwardness and kindness, wisdom and wisdom", Liu Qi shook his head and said. "According to the old man, this statement is from Chao Wrong and the like, right?" The Queen Mother asked angrily. "It is Chao Cuo Zhao Xuan's admonition today, the courtiers are rich enough to rival the country, and they are not in harmony with the etiquette system." "It's a bunch of nonsense, this old man came here to ask His Majesty if he heard that Chao Cuo impeached the King of Chu and the Empress Dowager Bo during the funeral, and asked to kill the King of Chu, but is there such a thing?" There is indeed this matter, I have not yet approved it", "Hmph, if you don't punish you, there will be a big trouble, and the Empress Dowager Bo can still use it to do things after she has passed away for a long time, but you can add the poison of this person's heart." The old body of the feudal clan is not opposed, it is also for the good of my Han family, but I can't rush forward, Your Majesty has only succeeded to the throne for three years, and I don't know how the soldiers and horses are, and I don't know how much the strength of the feudal king is. Don't forget how the first emperor ascended to the throne, just acting for the king. If you want to cut the feudal domain, you must first look at your own strength, and without the power of deterrence, such a rapid advance will definitely be the union of the kings, and the handle of the sword, and the first emperor and the people's livelihood will be ruined. Your Majesty, don't forget the killing of Wu Shizi by Yiqi back then." The Queen Mother's words made Liu Qi sweat coldly, and the hatred for Chao Cuo in his heart came to his heart. "The queen mother, this edict has been issued, it is irretrievable, and I also ask the queen mother to write to the king of Liang, so that he can guard the city, and there must be no loss, otherwise Luoyang is in danger and Chang'an is in danger. I also asked the queen mother to discuss the stakes with Dou Ying in detail, and I wanted to defeat him as a general." "The old man will handle this matter by himself, deal with the treacherous people such as Chao Wrong, and the old man can still use it to try his loyalty and talent." "I'm thinking about ......." Liu Qi fell into deep thought, and he didn't know when the Queen Mother left, so he burned the two pieces of paper by the lamplight. I am also secretly glad for myself, the position of Tai Lieutenant, which has been abolished for a long time, was re-established by myself in August, Zhou Yafu is the person recommended by the first emperor, and it should not be wrong.
