Chapter 68 Substitution of Training

As soon as Wen Zhang entered the room, he shouted, "Your Majesty, this musket should equip our young guards first." ”

I asked with interest, "Why, Wenzhang, you seem to have become very interested in this musket?" I remember the last time you were yelling for me to give the bomb to you young guards first. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister often comes to the musket workshop to ask Master Yun for advice, and the minister thinks that these two muskets are easy to deal with, but dozens of muskets are fired at the same time, and the power is really not to be underestimated, and it is not something that ordinary people can bear."

Yun Bofei smiled when he saw that there were no outsiders: "Your Majesty, this General Xiaowen is still the introducer of his subordinates to join the Dragon Tooth." ”

"Really? Very good. Wen Zhang, sit down and talk, I have called you this time because I have two things to tell you, the first is the matter of the musketeer, I plan to send a hundred people from three aspects to become the first batch of musketeer team members, fifty young guards, forty of the personnel sent by the whole mountain village and Master Li, and ten members of the Dragon's Tooth Security Department, first, these three members can supervise each other to avoid the leakage of guns, and second, after learning it, they can go back to teach their original people. ”

Wen Zhang thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, this is okay. ”

"You need to personally select fifty loyal and reliable team members with strong comprehension, and report the list to Lord Lu, so that his intelligence department can verify whether the information of these people is true. Don't be sloppy about this, remember. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister has also learned some physiognomy from his master."

"Dragon and Tiger Sect's physiognomy technique? However, unless you practice this kind of physiognomy to the realm of your master, you must not know half of it and harm others and yourself. I said solemnly, "After the 100 muskets are manufactured, these 100 musketeers will be gathered on the back mountain of Qiuquan Villa and will be managed by Zhang Shijie. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Another thing is military training. Recently, in the Jinhua area south of Lin'an, there were two or three groups of people occupying the mountain as the king's cowards, the number of people ranged from twenty or thirty to seventy or eighty people, and the local government sent people to suppress the bandits several times but returned without success, so they reported to the imperial court, and this matter was handed over to your young guards, and you led three hundred young guards to Jinhua to suppress the training. ”

When Wen Zhang heard that there was a battle to fight, he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the minister promises to exterminate him." ”

Lu Xiufu couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, after all, Young Wei is only a teenager, is it inappropriate?" ”

Yuan Jian smiled: "Lord Lu doesn't need to worry, just Wen Zhang himself can defeat these bandits. ”

"Hehe, yes, Junshi don't worry, listen to me. Most of these robbers in Jinhua are local hooligans, who have no ability, and they rely on the rugged mountains, and this time I will also arrange for Shen Mo to lead a team of 100 people to accompany the royal guards to suppress the formation, but these guards will not do it unless they have to, and will only be dispatched when the life of the young guard is endangered, Wen Zhang, I know that you are strong in martial arts, maybe you can pick these villages single-handedly up the mountain, but this time it is not allowed, you as a commander, like Shen Mo, you must not show your martial arts as a last resort, and, You have to keep a detailed record of your daily actions, including marching, before, during, and after the war, as well as your thoughts and those of the other members of the Youth Guard, and at the same time you have to ensure the safety of the Youth Guard, the reason why I do this is for three purposes, one is to let the Youth Guard see the blood, the second is to let you know that the battle under the command of the army is completely different from your personal behavior, and the third is to give the Youth Guard an exam by the way. ”

Wen Zhang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister understands, the minister will definitely answer this test paper well." ”

Wen Tianxiang said solemnly: "Wen Zhang, don't take it lightly, you must remember everything Your Majesty said. ”

"Big brother, I know."

Lu Xiufu nodded and said, "With Shen Mo pressing the formation, safety can naturally be guaranteed." ”

"When I go back, I will immediately inform Shen Mo, you will set off early in the morning, bring your own food and grass, go and return quickly, and let Lan Yu be in charge of the young guards during this period."

"Yes, Your Majesty, Chen Wenzhang retires."

After Wen Zhang left, I stayed in the Gunpowder Division for most of the day, and repeatedly discussed with Yun Bofei and others the development direction of muskets, artillery and bombs.

When I returned to Ningqian Palace, it was already evening, and Quan Jiu and Li Gongcheng were anxiously waiting for my arrival in front of the door.

"Official, the Queen Mother is invited." Gonggong Li knelt down and said.

"Yes, let's go quickly, the Queen Mother asked Jiu'er to accompany the official family to Ningkun Palace for dinner, Gonggong Li has been waiting for a long time."

I looked at Gonggong Li and said to Xiao Qi: "Xiao Qi, drive Ningkun Palace." ”

Since the relationship between me and Xie Daoqing has eased, this Gonggong Li's attitude towards me has also increased a little respect.

"Snobbish." I cursed inwardly.

"The Queen Mother."

"Queen Mother."

"Official, Jiu'er, come and sit down and pass the meal."

I sat down and hurriedly apologized, "I've kept the queen mother waiting, the child has just returned from the Youth Guard's station. ”

"The official family is busy with state affairs, how can the queen mother blame. The Queen Mother has called you today to remind you of two things. ”

"Queen Mother, please speak."

"After the palace examination is over, according to the etiquette system, the emperor will personally give a poem to congratulate the candidates, and the officials must prepare early, and don't be rude in front of the students of the world."

"Ah, the boy forgot about it. Rest assured, the child will come up with a poem overnight. ”

Xie Daoqing said: "Well, there is only one day left, if there are any major things in the future, you can tell Jiu'er first, and let Jiu'er remind you, don't forget, Jiu'er is a talented girl." However, the queen mother believes in the official family, and the poems written by the official family for Jiu'er for Chinese New Year's Eve are all good sentences, not to mention that the official family also responds to the mandate of heaven. ”

Quan Jiu nodded slightly and smiled: "The Queen Mother has won the award, and Jiu'er just knows a few more words." Jiu'er, like the Queen Mother, also believes that the official family is the true dragon son of heaven, otherwise how can he predict the arrival of the heavens? ”

"Yes, then the queen mother is really sweating for the official family." Xie Daoqing smiled, "Since then, the queen mother's heart seems to be much more steady, there was a red light in the room when you were born, no wonder the first emperor insisted on making you the crown prince back then, or the first emperor had a unique vision, haha." ”

When Zhao Yu was born, there was a red light theory in the room that Song Lizong made it up, and he wanted to seal the mouths of those ministers who opposed Zhao Yu as the crown prince, including Xie Daoqing at that time. Although this Xie Daoqing can also be regarded as a heroine among women, he is very superstitious, he has not seen the red light in the room, and his mouth is unfounded, but he has seen it with his own eyes, and he can't help but Xie Daoqing doesn't believe that Zhao Yu is the true son of heaven.

I smiled and asked, "Queen Mother, what about the second thing?" ”

Xie Daoqing put away his smile and said with a little sadness: "Official, the Yongmu Mausoleum of the First Emperor has been completed, and it was originally scheduled to leave on March 15 to send the First Emperor to be buried in the Huiji Ancestral Mausoleum, is this matter ready?" ”

"After returning to my mother, the Ministry of Rites has been prepared according to the imperial system, and then the child will leave with some ministers to accompany the coffin of the emperor in the early morning, and there is no problem with the time."

"Well, the accompanying guards have also been arranged, right?"

"The queen mother can rest assured, this time there are three hundred imperial guards and three hundred elite forbidden soldiers to escort them, and the guards have been notified to protect them along the way, and there will be no mistakes."

Xie Daoqing said: "That's very good, Jiu'er, you remember to tell Mr. Yuan that you will never leave the official family." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother, Jiu'er knows."

"Guanjia, this time I will go to Jiyong Muling, and your biological parents will also be present, and I will say hello to them after the surrogate mother. The first emperor is your biological father's younger brother, although His Royal Highness King Rong is not talented, but he is never arrogant and domineering, but he is an example of the emperor. ”

Zhao Yu's biological father is the only younger brother of Song Lizong, King Rong Zhao and Rui, this King Rong has been living in Huiji, rarely showing up, has always been low-key, and lives a happy life.

If it weren't for Xie Daoqing mentioning it, I would have almost forgotten Zhao Yu's father.
