When Liu Xie and Shao Yi handed over the telescope, their expressions were quite strange, as if they were narrow, and there was some reluctance.

Shao Yi was strange, and after drawing a charge on the handover note, he asked casually: "Look at the expression on Commander Liu's face, but what interesting things happened?" ”

When Liu Xie heard this, he immediately straightened his face: "No, no, aren't you in a hurry to use it, hurry up." This thing is important, remember the emperor's explanation, and there must be no omissions. ”

Shao Yi looked at Liu Xie a little more, and when he saw that his face was serious and serious, he didn't want to ask too much, thanked him, and left.

The telescope is not an ordinary thing, this day is his shift, and he asked other colleagues to take turns for him for a few days, brought a small guard, and rode a fast horse to Dongxi in person.

He believed that with Mo Hong's ability, he would be able to find the main messenger who incited the villages around the mining area.

But there is always a difference between fast and slow investigations, and in that wilderness without commanding heights, it is not easy to find out who is in contact with outsiders in so many surrounding villages without being discovered, and it takes a lot of manpower.

The mining area is now in flux, and the satisfaction and gratitude that the miners used to have because they have earned money and can be fed and clothed are gone, because they have not received more.

Mo Hong already has not many people, so it is really difficult to divide more people to keep an eye on various villages.

It is different if the telescope assists, as long as a suitable observation site is selected at a distance, a telescope can observe a large area of the surrounding area. With this thing, one person can use it for ten people, and it is not easy to be exposed.

…………

After the elders of the villages tore up the agreement, Mo Hong sent a fast horse to deliver a letter to Shao Yi, but he didn't expect Shao Yi to come over in person so soon.

Shao Yi got the telescope early that morning, got the things in hand, and set off with people non-stop. After a day and a night of travel, with only a short rest in between, I arrived at the mining area at this time, and it was already midday.

Mo Hong was very surprised when he saw the dusty group.

welcomed Shao Yi into the door, first let him wash his hands and face slightly, and drink a cup of hot tea to warm up. The other side arranged for someone to settle Xiuyuan and a few other entourages, and ordered the kitchen to order a few bowls of hot noodle soup to see if there was any ready-made food to be delivered first.

After arranging things, Mo Hong sat down on the chair opposite Shao Yi and asked, "In this big winter, it's good to have someone bring a letter, why did the uncle come over in person?" But has there been progress in improving the carriage? ”

Shao Yi was holding a cup of hot tea, slowly sucking, and when he heard Mo Hong ask, he exhaled and said, "The carriage will have to wait for a while, and I am here to deliver something useful to Uncle Mo." ”

Mo Hong's gaze fell on a package beside Shao Yi.

From the moment he entered the door, this package was carried by him himself, and he never left his side.

"Just because you sent this thing, the emperor allowed you to come out?" Mo Hong asked, but he was curious in his heart, what could actually alarm the emperor?

"yes." Shao Yi replied. The royal family has very strict control over the children of the clan, and under normal circumstances, the children of the clan are not allowed to leave Beijing at will. And those who have been sent to the fiefdom are not allowed to leave their places at will.

Shao Yi was not recorded in the clan, but he also enjoyed this treatment.

When he went to get the telescope, he told Liu Xie that in order to prevent accidents, he wanted to go to Dongxi in person and hand over the telescope to Mo Hong.

This is also a child of the clan, Liu Xie naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent someone to the palace for questioning.

When the two of them completed the procedures for handing over the telescope, Sun Congshan's apprentice replied: The emperor agreed.

There was no one else in the room, Shao Yi took the package around him, put it on the table between the two, and whispered: "This thing is called a telescope, and it can clearly see people and things in the distance, which I borrowed from the guards." The imperial court strictly controlled this, and now this thing is only prepared by the supervision department and the army stationed at the border gates, and no one else knows that this kind of thing exists. In order not to leak the news, Cheng An personally sent it to Uncle Mo. ”

Mo Hong was still a little suspicious at first, but as Shao Yi finished speaking, there was a flash of light in his eyes, and he thought of many things.

He asked: "In the spring, the border pass was not invaded by the Yi tribe in the northwest, but won several battles. Does it have something to do with it? How far can this thing see? ”

Shao Yi nodded mysteriously: "It's the credit of the telescope, this thing is only for the use of senior generals and scouts of various armies, and it is extremely useful when reconnoitring the enemy situation and fighting against each other." If the weather is sunny and there is no dust, people within a mile or two can basically see the shape of their clothes and bodies. If you want to see the eyebrows and eyes clearly, within a mile. ”

"Where did this stuff come from?" Mo Hong was shocked, and the vigilance in his heart was even worse.

When he saw that Shao Yi was about to open the wooden box, he reached out and pressed the lid and asked, "This thing is so magical and important, how does the uncle know?" ”

Don't blame Mo Hong for being careful, this kind of thing should also be kept secret from King Jing and other princes and princes, why did the emperor let Shao Yi know.

Shao Yi's face was calm, and his answer was even more natural: "This thing, it's an exaggeration, it's called clairvoyance." I dedicated it to the emperor. ”

"Ahem, cough, cough......" Fortunately, Mo Hong didn't drink tea, otherwise he would have sprayed directly, "Qian, clairvoyance?" Where are you from? ”

Shao Yi blinked and put the teacup down, "This...... Well, earlier, when Yan Qing was sorting out the glass fragments, he found that two pieces of broken glass were stacked on top of each other, and he could occasionally see far away, so he put forward an idea. I felt that this matter was important, and told His Majesty that at that time, the supervisor and Yan Qing would be developed at the same time, and Yan Qing would make it first, and hand over the practice to the general supervisor. The finished product made by Yan Qing was sent by me to the emperor. ”

Mo Hong was full of disbelief: "Xia's? The woman that the uncle wants to marry? It can't be that the uncle wants to put gold on her face and count what she learned from others on her, right? ”

"How so!" Shao Yi almost jumped up, "I watched the trial production process with my own eyes, because I made a telescope, Qu Jiang went to Qingyunzhai to ask Yan Qing for advice." Also, the holy decree given by the emperor to Yan Qing, Uncle Mo wouldn't think that the emperor's holy decree was so easy to get, right? ”
