Chapter 813: Quid pro quo

Li Cong deserved to be the emperor, and he soon thought of using the telescope for military purposes, saying that it was especially suitable for jungle warfare, such as quelling the Miao rebellion in the south and chasing down the Jurchen soldiers who fled to the mountains in the north.

Because of this telescope, Li Cong was also curious about the handicraft room that Yan Yan built for the children, and Yan Yan had to take him to take a look, so Yan Yan had to take everyone to the back garden together.

In fact, Yan Yan originally wanted to build a simple laboratory at the beginning, but because he was afraid of being too unconventional, and several children also needed a place to practice making their toys, so it was named the handicraft room, which was divided into several functional areas, including an experimental area for basic physical and chemical experiments, a handicraft area for carpentry, bricklayers, masonry, knife work, carving and other handicrafts, a small practice area, and a leisure and entertainment area for them to rest and drink tea when they are tired and thirsty.

The queen was not interested in these at first, but when she saw the telescopes, Rubik's cubes, kaleidoscopes, prisms, crossbows, slingshots and other small objects made by several children, her interest was aroused, especially when she learned that Lu Chu had successfully saved Yan Yan's life with the crossbow she made, and the queen was impressed by a few small things again.

"By the way, Jin Niang, I heard that you were also very brave at that time, and you pounced on your brother to block a sword for him, aren't you afraid of death?" The queen heard her husband and son talk about it, and she suddenly wanted to know more about this girl.

Lu Jin blinked, bowed and replied: "Back to the queen, the courtiers are also afraid of death, but Ah Chu did not hesitate to risk his life to save his mother, how could the courtiers bear to watch him be killed?" ”

"Then did you think about it at the time, if you died to save your brother, Xi'er would also be sad for you." The queen said tentatively.

Lu Jin turned his head to look at Li Xi, smiled slightly, and then turned his head and replied: "Back to the queen, the situation was urgent, and the courtiers didn't have time to think about this, and afterwards Li Xi's brother also asked the courtiers this question, and the courtiers said that he has grandparents, parents, and younger brothers and sisters, and it is only temporary, but if the courtiers lose their younger brother, the courtiers and parents will regret it for life." ”

The queen was not very satisfied with this answer at first, which showed that Lu Jin was not very affectionate with Li Xi, but when she thought about it, Lu Jin was only twelve years old, and it was when the chaos was not opened, and she didn't understand the relationship between men and women very well, so it was understandable.

Furthermore, this also shows that Lu Jin is thinking right, and he has not learned those foxy and charming things, Yan Yan obviously did not teach her children these, she taught her children some self-reliance and self-improvement ways of survival, supporting herself with her own ability, and not having to rely on anyone.

"Then let me ask you, if it was Li Xi who was lying on the ground, would you have pounced on him to save him?" Li Cong suddenly interjected and asked.

"Back to the emperor, yes." Lu Jin replied without hesitation.

"Why?" It was the queen who asked.

"Back to the emperor and queen, Brother Li Xi is also a relative of the courtier, if the courtiers rush over, we all have a glimmer of life and win time for others to save us." Lu Jin replied respectfully again.

This answer satisfied both the emperor and the queen, because from the child's answer, they divided two main points, first, Lu Jin attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and treats Li Xi as a relative, which should be similar to Lu Chu's status, it seems that this childhood sweetheart's relationship has not been cultivated in vain; Secondly, Lu Jin was smart and knew that she might not die if she pounced, but if she didn't pounce, the other party would definitely die, so she pounced decisively, and really won precious time for them to be rescued.

At a young age, the child has such intelligence, no wonder Li Xi fell into it, and no wonder Yan Yan dared to make a request, it turned out that she relied not only on her and her husband's merits, but also on the child's own excellence.

Thinking about it like this, the queen didn't know what it was like in her heart.

"Emperor Qi, Mr. Storyteller is ready, and please move the two of you to the flower hall." Yan Yan saw that the expression on the queen's face seemed to be uncertain again, and hurriedly stepped forward to change the topic.

Li Cong also knew his wife's thoughts, and took the initiative to push the queen out of the door of the handicraft room.

That afternoon, Li Cong listened to a storyteller's lecture on the history of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the flower hall, and stayed for dinner before leaving, but before leaving, he took away the telescopes made by Lu Jin.

I don't know if it was touched when I listened to the book or what the emperor said to her, in short, the look on the queen's face during dinner had loosened a little, and Yan Yan also let go of the heart that had been hanging for a long time.

The next day, Li Cong sent Master Yang from the Ministry of Engineering to bring someone over to learn from Yan Yan how to make a telescope and the materials needed, and Yan Yan also learned from Master Yang that the imperial court had sent someone to Liao to negotiate peace with the Jurchens, saying that the telescope was also given to Lu You.

This time the peace talks are very different from the last time, this time it is to take over the land of the Jurchens, and the Jurchen tribes can still be retained, but they need to be incorporated into the Liao State or the Great Zhou State and become their subjects, and the specific situation depends on the conclusion of the discussion with the Liao State.

When Yan Yan heard this, grass began to grow in her heart again, Lu You has been gone for more than two years, she really misses him, in the past few years, because of the war, the two have been getting together less and leaving more. In addition, Yan Yan was also worried about him, although the Jurchens were defeated, there were still remnants of tribes or soldiers, and if Lu You relaxed his vigilance at this time, someone would assassinate him if he couldn't keep it.

Also, Yan Yan was also worried about whether Yelu Honglu could agree to the conditions proposed by Da Zhou, and whether this war could come to an end.

More than two months later, Li Xi brought news from the palace, saying that the Liao State had promised to exchange land, and put forward two exchange conditions, each with proviso.

The first is to take Yuguan as the boundary, and the proviso is that the Great Zhou will fund the construction of a Great Wall on the border between the two countries, but it must be opened to trade and communicate with each other.

The second is to take the western Liaoning corridor as the boundary, and the proviso is that the Great Zhou will fund the Liao State to build a Great Wall on the border line of Mongolia, and it must also promise never to violate the Liao, and the Liao State must also promise never to violate the Zhou.

That is to say, no matter which exchange conditions, the Great Zhou must communicate with the Liao State to open a trade exchange, and a Great Wall must be built on the border, depending on who is building it.

In the Zhou-Liao border, the Great Zhou did not have to worry about the Khitans crossing the border from time to time to harass the people of the Great Zhou, nor did they have to worry about the day when the Liao, Mongolia, and Jurchen would make a comeback and invade the Great Zhou.

Of course, this Great Wall can be regarded as a barrier for the Liao State, and they don't have to worry about the artillery of the Great Zhou coming to the city overnight.

Repairing on the border of Liao-Mongolia, it is naturally convenient for the Liao State, which can block the Mongolian iron cavalry for the Liao State, but in this way, if the Liao State rises one day, what will the Great Zhou use to block their iron horses?
