Gu Fuwei kicked over the case and leaned on the couch.

The candle flame rolled from the case to the ground, and the pestle was extinguished, leaving only the oil lamps on both sides of the door.

The room suddenly darkened a lot, and none of the three of him dared to look at his face.

"Wang ...... The prince ......"

"How much worse is the weapon of the Qu Ye system?" Gu Fuwei asked.

Quye is in the middle of the Western Regions, with the back to the curved mountain. The year before last, a large amount of copper and iron ore was excavated on the bent mountain, and Gu Fuwei concealed it and detained the news.

Just because compared with the Central Plains, iron ore and copper ore in the Western Regions are very rare. From ancient times to the present, the most difficult problem is to build weapons.

Get this mine, if you get a treasure. An ambitious person like Gu Fuwei, where is he willing to take the initiative to send the fragrant dumplings to the old emperor.

He privately removed most of the death row prisoners held in the Western Regions and went to Quye.

Opening roads, building reservoirs, digging copper mines, and now they can finally come in handy. However, due to the short life expectancy, the material and manpower are insufficient. When weapons were built, they naturally did not come as quickly as the official mines in the Central Plains.

Yang Huai immediately replied: "The difference between the sword is 20,000, the difference between the halberd is 10,000, and the difference is 50,000 for the arrows." ”

Gu Fuwei closed his eyelids and calculated.

Even if it starts work overnight and sends the closest Dexiao Cavalry to cast together, it will take at least twenty days.

And aside from anything else, the grain and grass transported from Shuli are still outside the customs.

If you want to fight a battle with a chance of winning, it will take at least a month.

However, the emperor's edict was still five days away from being sent to Qishui...... What to do?

Scold...... He was so clever that he couldn't have a plan to deal with it.

He barely had to think about it, he knew what to do to be able to cope with the Dog Emperor's calculations.

It's just that some things are easier to think about than hard to do. The thought of leaving the lamp would cause a cramping pain in a certain part of his chest, and he couldn't stop it.

"Lord Wang?"

"Huh?"

"Does the prince have a plan? Governor Qishui and General Mohan, they are still waiting outside the palace gate! Yang Huai urged.

Gu Fuwei's color suddenly changed, and he turned his head and stared at Yang Huai viciously. "Who told you to tell them?!"

Yang Huai was on the ground tightly.

He and Celine have been in charge of spies and guards. Cyrin is in charge of the hidden guards, and the news of the spies is usually handled by him first.

He doesn't leak out, and no third person will know.

However, when Yang Huai got the sea fishing paperwork, he saw the portrait of the country on the paperwork, and the appearance of flirting with Gu Fuwei appeared in his mind.

He had a hunch that this little girl might become a fetter in Gu Fuwei's heart, making Gu Fuwei unable to take a step.

That's why Yang Huai came out next time, and deliberately told the Governor of Qishui and General Mohan about this matter first.

On the surface, they were asked to discuss this matter, but in fact, they wanted to put pressure on Gu Fuwei and let these people push Gu Fuwei forward.

"Yang Huai, what have you learned from your father for decades? Have you learned to assert yourself? Don't think that I won't do anything to you when you're seventy or eighty! ”

Xi Lin hurriedly interrupted, "Steward Yang, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you quickly appease Qi Shui Zhidu and them, and when the time comes, it will be passed on ten or ten to hundred, and see how you explain to the prince." ”

Yang Huai hesitated to glance at Xilin, and Xilin gave him a look.

Yang Huai finally reached out, picked up the crutches, and withdrew from the door with an unwilling face.

Compared to the-for-tat confrontation just now, the room will be so quiet that even the sound of hair falling on the ground can be heard clearly.

Gu Fuwei didn't speak for a long time, and Xilin really couldn't wait.

He has always been decisive in killing and deterring the border passes, and he has never been indecisive for a moment.

But this battle is imperative. Even if Gu Fuwei has no ambition, Zhongyuan will not be relenting.

If two tigers fight, one will die, this is his first hesitation, and it is likely to be his last hesitation.

"Lord Wang, forgive your subordinates for a lot of words, time waits for no one, if the prince has any decisions, he can order his subordinates to do it. The subordinates must do a good job for the prince. ”

Gu Fuwei's fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, and after a while, "Go and call Mrs. Jingjue over." ”

"Lord Wang?"

"Quick."

Xilin had to go out, Xu Xiao was the most useless of the three, so naturally he didn't dare to stay in the room longer, and went out together.

Standing under the cedar to shelter from the wind, silent, the mood was very low.

"It's all here, what is the prince still looking for Mrs. Jingjue?"

"Mrs. Jingjue is a capable person, and the prince may have to ask before he can make a decision." Celine put her hand on Xu Xiao's shoulder and comforted her slightly.

"But didn't Mrs. Jingjue tell the prince everything she knows so far? As for any changes in the future, that will be for later. The information didn't come, and it was in vain to ask. ”

"Maybe it's not about war?"

Xu Xiao looked at Xilin suspiciously, Xilin just sighed, and jumped over the wall, "Hey, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, and there have been many disasters since ancient times." ”

Gu Fuwei waited in the Xuanji Palace for a while, and after the two pillars of incense, Xi Lin brought someone here.

When Su Wantong entered the door, the whole person was hanging on Xilin's body.

Celine carried her and sat opposite Gu Fuwei.

Gu Fuwei glanced at the two of them slowly, and there was endless impatience in his eyes.

"How?"

Su Wantong covered her heart and slowly propped up her neck. I saw that her melon seed face was sparsely bloody, she covered her chest, and her anger was like a hint, "The prince forgives the sin, the concubine is sick, and she was carried by a sedan chair all the way, which delayed some time." ”

"Isn't it okay?"

"Thank you for your care, it's much better, no ......"

"It's good if you can't die."

"Ahem......" Su Wantong was embarrassed for a while.

"Do you know why this king called you in the middle of the night?"

"I heard Miss Xilin say that the sea fishing documents from Lizhan are almost in Qishui."

"Do you know who the envoy sent by the emperor is?"

Su Wantong smiled, "Sure enough, the prince passed on his concubine for the sake of the Heavenly Maiden." It seems that the Heavenly Maiden is indeed of great significance in the heart of the prince. ”

"Envoy—Officer." Gu Fuwei emphasized again.

Su Wantong finally reined in a little indecency. "The concubine knows it, but what about the quid pro quo?"

"Didn't this king promise you? What more could you want? ”

"The prince only said that he wanted the military plane to be secret, but he did not say who would be the envoy. One yard is one yard, and the conditions naturally have to be counted separately. ”

Gu Fuwei stared at her.

Su Wantong was not afraid, "Actually, the concubine is not an insatiable person, the prince promised the conditions of the concubine before, and the concubine is already satisfied." However, the prince only had a heavenly daughter in his heart, and he never considered the feelings of the concubine, so that the promised conditions were delayed again and again, and they were not fulfilled for a long time. ”

"This king has limited time, you have something to say."

"The concubine is willing to tell the prince who is coming, and I hope that the prince will give the concubine a specific time to fulfill his promise."

"What time do you want?"

Su Wantong walked to the table with the couch, took a pen and paper and wrote a few lines, and then showed it to Gu Fuwei.

"Is it convenient for the prince at this time?"

Gu Fuwei gritted his back molars, "Convenient." ”

"Then bother the prince to help me make a seal, and the concubine is so at ease."

The two reached an agreement, and after the seal was completed, Su Wantong happily took the contract into her arms.

"The envoy sent by the emperor is Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites."

"The ...... surnamed Liu" Gu Fuwei twisted his eyebrows.

"The prince asked what this is for? Could it be that you want to sit down with the envoy and have a good talk, and help you hide the matter of arresting the Heavenly Maiden? ”

Su Wantong's mind was quick, and she guessed Gu Fuwei's intentions at once.

He wanted to know who the envoy was, so as to see if there was room for a turn in the matter. First of all, check what kind of style and temperament the envoy is.

Eat soft, it's easy to say, and you can do things if you give money.

Eat hard, he also has some means to try.

But it's best not to meet those who don't eat hard and soft, such as people like Su Wantong who are not even afraid of death, then there is really no way to start.

"Does the prince want to know about Liu Shangshu? The concubine knows a little. Liu Shangshu is not too soft, nor too hard, and he is decent in officialdom, so he may not dare to do things that are out of order. However, he has a weakness, that is, he only has one son under his knees, Liu Fengxian. In the past six months, his son's health has not been very good. He loved this son, and it hurt like his life. The concubine heard that the Heavenly Maiden's medical skills are amazing, and if she can cure his son's illness, it may be ......."

"Why is it surnamed Liu?" Gu Fuwei's eyes narrowed.

As she said, Liu Shangshu is a decent person and an official. It is very difficult to ask him to do things that collude with the party.

But as difficult as it is, with some extraordinary means, there may be some opportunities.

But the problem is that Liu Fengxian has been married to him.

Because Liu Fengxian liked to leave the lamp, he had cleaned him up once. Liu Fengxian's condition worsened because of that time, and his physique became weaker and weaker.

Liu Shangshu hurts his son like his life, and this matter must be in his heart.

Based on this, Liu Shangshu will not cover up and leave the lamp, let alone use it for him.
