Imperial capital.

The Imperial Study.

Wang Xu was reviewing the folds, Ye Xiong's expression came in a panic, and from his eyes, it could be seen that something big seemed to have happened.

"Lord, it's not good, something is wrong!"

Ye Xiong pushed Zhang Meng away, stumbled into the imperial study, and came to Wang Xu.

Wang Xu pouted: "Ye Xiong, you are the secretary of the Criminal Department, and you are also the commander of the Jinyi Guard, what is there to be so alarmed by you?" ”

Putting the fold in his hand aside, Wang Xu said, "What do you say?" The imperial capital has been captured by us, and the sky will not fall. ”

Ye Xiong is not as optimistic as Wang Xu, what he is going to say next is extremely important, even more shocking than losing a county town!

Ye Xiong's face was serious, and he said strictly: "Lord, there is news from Jinyiwei in Nanjun that there is a pharmacy owner named Feng Hai, this person can actually make saltpeter from clay, and the speed of manufacturing is very fast, and it can be made in large quantities!" ”

"What?" Wang Xu suddenly got up.

Ye Xiong said: "Since the lord sold the manufacturing method of the secret weapon to Gao Quan, Gao Quan has purchased all the saltpeter on the territory of Nanjun and Qingyuan County, so that saltpeter has become extinct, but those pharmacies need this medicinal material very much, so this pharmacy owner named Feng Hai made saltpeter by himself!" ”

Wang Xu took a deep breath, and in shock, he immediately asked, "Then have you brought him to the imperial capital?" ”

But as soon as he finished asking this sentence, Wang Xu shook his head to himself, if the person took it back, Ye Xiong would definitely not have this expression, from this sad expression, it can be seen that Feng Hai has probably fallen into Hu Ling's hands.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Xu finished speaking, Ye Xiong said very regretfully: "My lord, please forgive me, our people are one step late, at this moment, that Feng Hai has been accepted into the palace by Gao Quan, and he specially makes saltpeter for Nandu." Because their defense was too tight, our brocade guards couldn't penetrate it. ”

Wang Xu kicked in his heart, so to speak, Nandu's strength has increased greatly.

Now Hu Ling's strength is already strong enough. If you get this method of making saltpeter again, it will really be like a tiger with wings, maybe in a few years, you can threaten the imperial capital!

Just imagine, if the imperial capital is full of cold weapons. And Nandu uses a lot of secret weapons, the consequences! No matter how many people can't beat it, at that time, the imperial capital should be in great trouble.

"No, you must snatch the person named Feng Hai, and you will handle this matter." Wang Xu said abruptly.

Ye Xiong was a little embarrassed: "My lord, this matter has been classified as a high secret by the Southern Capital, and the place where they make saltpeter is three layers inside and three layers outside, and there are enough tens of thousands of soldiers to guard it day and night." Even mosquitoes can't fly in, and we Jinyiwei can't do anything. ”

Wang Xu said: "Could it be that you just look at Hu Lingzuo and let him keep making saltpeter like this?" ”

After thinking about it, Wang Xu said: "You try to do this as much as possible, if you can't bring that Feng Hai back to the imperial capital, then find a way to execute him secretly, whether it is poisoning or secret killing, I just want the result, he can't live anyway!" ”

"No." Ye Xiong's face was upright, and he said resolutely; Ye Xiong also knew the seriousness of this matter. Feng Hai's life and death may be directly related to the survival of the world, once Nandu is allowed to make a large amount of saltpeter, then everything is over. At that time, I am afraid that no one will be able to stop the southern army.

"Oh yes, go tell the Academy of Science and Technology, and immediately set up a research team on the topic of 'Making Saltpeter,' something that even the owner of a small pharmacy can work out. Can't our university scholars study it? Tell them that if anyone researches saltpeter, the reward will be a thousand taels! ”

"No." Ye Xiong nodded, he suddenly realized at the moment, he really didn't expect this, even a small pharmacy owner can make something, it must be very simple, maybe as long as you use dim sum, you can do it.

There are so many big bachelors in the imperial capital, as well as Wenyuan Pavilion and Han calligraphy and paintings, are they not as good as a small pharmacy owner?

Thinking of this, Ye Xiong was full of confidence again, and he left happily.

Wang Xu was also a little relieved, and she was waiting for the good news from the Academy of Science and Technology.

.........

As soon as Ye Xiong walked out of the imperial study, he was startled and was frightened by the lineup outside the study.

There were more than a dozen people standing outside the study, including Han Shushu and Shu, Wenqing, the Ministry of Rites, Ai Song, Huang Quan, and Murong Yuan. In addition to Ye Xiong, the giants of the six ministries are all there, as well as the Minister of Military Aircraft Jia Hui, the general Sun Yu, Fukangan, Zheng Feng, Zheng Li, Qin Shuang, etc., all of whom are the most powerful Wenchen fierce generals under Wang Xu!

These dozen or so most important personnel all arrived outside the study, their expressions were solemn and solemn, and something big must have happened.

Seeing Ye Xiong coming out, Jia Hui asked softly before leaving, "Lord Ye, are there other people in the study?" ”

Ye Xiong shook his head and said, "Master Jia, there is only the lord in the study. ”

Jia Hui hummed, waved his hand and said, "Master Ye walks slowly." ”

After finishing speaking, Jia Hui nodded to the people next to him. Ye Xiong didn't have the heart to stay to find out the news, he was only responsible for Wang Xu's intelligence, and he didn't mix it up with these bigwigs, so Ye Xiong left the palace directly.

He's got a mission on his hand now!

Jia Hui stood outside the study and asked Yulin Jun to report.

After Wang Xu got the news, he was also surprised why so many people came together. Immediately, Wang Xu ordered everyone to enter the study, and after a while, Jia Hui and others rushed in.

When they entered the study, they immediately bowed and bowed.

Wang Xu smiled and said: "You are neatly dressed, your expressions are serious, it seems that there is something big and loud, what is the matter?" ”

Jia Hui is the most senior person among them, and he stood up and said: "The lord and the ministers entered the palace today to invite the lord to ascend the throne and reign over the world." ”

A bright light suddenly flashed in Wang Xu's eyes, but he didn't speak.

He has also been thinking about this matter in the past few days, and all the officials are admonishing, and now there are still more than a dozen exhortations on the table. There are many more that I haven't seen.

Jia Hui continued unhurriedly: "The lord rose to Jingliao, laid the foundation of Guxi, later settled Hexi, Pingxue Domain, and broke through the imperial capital, and has occupied most of the territory of the world, and is a well-deserved first person. Now, the princes of the world have been annihilated, leaving only Hu Ling in the south, Cai Wenzhuo in the north, and some remnants of the imperial court. The lord has worked hard for six years, the people are happy, the strength of the Western Capital Army is thriving, and the people hope that the lord can fight against the heavens, crusade against other anti-kings, and ask the lord to ascend the throne and be the emperor. ”

The corners of Wang Xu's mouth hooked up a smile, his eyes withdrew from Jia Hui, and then swept over the rest of the ministers one by one, and asked, "Jia Hui thinks so, what do you think?" (To be continued.) )
