Wang Han said: "Cannon town Haicheng Tower, the focus is on the cannon, this cannon is three zhang long, weighs three thousand catties, used in the battlefield of the military formation, invincible, not afraid of any opponent, thousands of troops and horses are turned into ashes under the cannon. ”

Lingsu was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Why is this?" ”

Wang Han thought for a while and replied, "I have only seen this cannon in the military book given by Xuannu Niangniang, and it has not yet been named." After speaking, he said to Zhao Ji, "When the cannon is built, please ask the official family to give the name." ”

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "Very good, this matter will be discussed in the future, and the two of you will follow me first." After speaking, he still had to pull the two of them into the Shengping Building.

Wang Han's soles became more and more painful, his eyes looked around, and he saw that there was a toilet in the northwest corner, so he said goodbye, and trotted all the way to tiptoe, his movements were funny and anxious, and Zhao Ji laughed, but the corners of Lingsu's mouth trembled.

The toilets of the Song Dynasty were already very civilized, the rich and noble families all used indoor toilets, the toilet design was ingenious, most of them were made of good wood, the bottom of the barrel was coated with wax, and the water was filled with water, and there was a layer of wood ash floating on the water surface, and the dirt fell into the water, and the smell would not play.

Ordinary people also have dry toilets, often at the back door of the house. On the main street of Tokyo, there is a public toilet for pedestrians.

In terms of urban infrastructure configuration, Tokyo at this time has surpassed New Delhi a thousand years later, and is worthy of being the world's most prosperous metropolis today.

Even the lives of ordinary people are so high-end, let alone royal? This is also the main reason why the wolves of the Quartet covet the Central Plains, they yearn for Bianliang, yearn for Bianliang, and if they can't build Bianliang themselves, they will use force to take it.

The toilet in the Shengping Building is even different, the exterior is a small wooden house, and the inside is a wooden floor, and there is incense. The squatting position is a high platform built on the ground, all of which are good mahogany, and the oil can be seen, if it is a small solution, there is a wooden barrel next to it, if it is a big hand, you must take off your shoes, wear socks or go barefoot, so as not to stain the plank.

After going to the toilet, there are small pieces of wood in front of it, also called toilet chips, which are used to scrape chrysanthemums. There is also a small bucket in front of it, and there is water in the bucket, which must be washed after scraping to be completely clean. In addition, there is a wooden basin, which is also filled with clean water for washing hands. Therefore, the upper class people of the Great Song Dynasty called going to the toilet to clean their hands.

Wang Han entered the door but did not come to clean his hands, the first time to see the soles of the feet, good guy, there is a scorched black mark on the soles of the shoes, sparks are dotted, and they are burning around, no wonder the soles of the feet are burning, so quickly take them off and douse them with water. Looking at the soles of the feet again, the bubbles have been burned.

Wang Han was shocked, and at the same time wondered, what is the dust whisk in the hand of the old man with a bull nose? has such a great destructive power, today it is not for the courage of his own artist, he must have planted it.

To say that the five-thunder method of the bull's nose, in Wang Han's understanding, is just a product of the combination of flash bombs and electric shockers, and it is not difficult to manufacture in principle, and he can make similar things if Wang Han is given time.

But the question is, it is the Great Song Dynasty, the era of cold weapons, how can flashbangs and electric shockers come out?

Could it be that the old way of the bull's nose is also a traverser?

Obviously impossible, if he is a traverser, he is still a god stick at the point of fifty years old, then it will be too bad.

If he weren't a traverser, where his Five Thunder Methods came from would be worth scrutinizing.

At the same time, it also made Wang Han understand a truth, the ancients were not as ignorant as they imagined, but they didn't understand some things.

Take Zhao Ji as an example, the history books record that he is a faint monarch and very superstitious. But from Zhao Ji's point of view, there is a Taoist who can release thunder and lightning dangling in front of him, and he can still say things he doesn't know in the four seas, can he not believe it?

Not to mention Zhao Ji, even if the time is pushed back by a thousand years, in the Beiyang period of China, the Taoist who can release thunder and lightning with his bare hands is afraid that he will be called a god.

Therefore, Lin Lingsu has a secret on him, and to understand this secret, he can only target him.

Put on his shoes again, Wang Han tried not to be lame as much as possible, and went back to Shengpinglou, ready to be close to Lingsu Dao. Unexpectedly, there were still a few people in the building, and the Lingsu Taoist had already retired, which disappointed Wang Han, "I haven't talked to the Taoist yet." ”

Zhao Ji looked reproachful when he heard this, "Brother Wang, this time you are reckless, knowing that Lingsu Dao Chief is an inferior scattered immortal, but you will not spare him." ”

Wang brothers?!

As soon as this title came out, all the surrounding people looked at Wang Han, Chao Buzhi frowned, Zhou Bangyan was dumbfounded, Zhao Mingcheng was sluggish, and Gao Bao's eyes turned into envy.

Even Wang Han himself was shocked, first stunned, then excited, and finally happy.

Li Qingzhao next to him explained in a low voice, "The Taoist chief coughed up blood before, and the official family has already gone to see the imperial doctor." ”

Coughing up blood?!

That bull-nosed old man was kicked by himself and coughed up blood!

Wang Han was really shocked this time, and blurted out, "That's not good, the Taoist must not have anything to do." He was just worried that if Niu Nose died suddenly, he was afraid that the secret of the Five Thunder Methods would never be able to be cracked again.

Zhao Ji said: "It's okay, the Taoist chief said that it was an old disease, and he had pills to treat." When he spoke, looking at Wang Han's eyes, there was clearly more appreciative affection.

Wang Han noticed it, his heart was happy and excited, this time he finally caught it, and he reached the sky in one step, directly reaching the peak of his life. Looking at Zhao Ji's gaze was also full of heat, and his mind was quickly circulating, the emperor called himself the brother of the Wang family, do you want to reply to him Brother of the Zhao family?

This is how rare Wang Han is, and he is a little too excited. In fact, the Zhao official family is first and foremost an individual, and then an emperor. Regardless of the identity of the emperor, he is no different from ordinary people.

Just as he was hesitating, the official had already ordered the blue-robed civil official standing in front of the hall and introduced it to Wang Han, "This is Xu Zhen Xu Pingshi, who specializes in portraits, and can assist you in making a portrait of a Xuannu." ”

After Zhao Ji finished speaking, Xu Zhen saluted Wang Han, and Wang Han hurriedly returned the salute, saying that Xu Ping was good.

Zhao Ji asked Xu Zhen to sit down again, and then let the Maiko enter, drink with everyone, and then greet Wang Han after drinking, and then go closer, let Wang Han sit under him, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Wang, have you memorized all the Xuannu soldiers' books?" ”

Wang Han responded: "I know it in my chest." ”

Zhao Ji was overjoyed, "Such a great kindness, you should drink a cup." After saying that, Wang Han hurriedly held the cup with both hands, respectfully, and when Zhao Ji finished pouring, he said: Xie Guanjia.

When drinking, Wang Han also thought, Zhao Ji doesn't look bad, how can he not govern the country well?

After drinking a glass of wine, Zhao Ji asked again: "As you can see, the Great Song Dynasty wants to expand its territory, what should I do?" ”

Conscience said that Wang Han was a human being, and the highest-level leader he had ever seen was only at the deputy national level, and now he was drinking face to face with the top leader of the Zhengguo level, which was the first time in his life, and if he wanted to say that he was not excited in his heart, he was pretending to be forced.

What is the excitement? It's just surging.

Zhao Ji asked him how the Great Song Dynasty opened up its territory and expanded its territory, which was a great opportunity, and Wang Han naturally knew everything and said everything.

The next time: "Simple, martial arts and strong army, if you do these four words, you can run rampant in the domain." ”

Zhao Ji asked again: "The Liao Kingdom of Western Xia is strong and strong, coming and going like the wind, the Great Song Dynasty is subject to the terrain, and the soldiers and horses are not as good as him, how to deal with it?" ”

Wang Han replied: "The infantry is naturally inferior to the cavalry, and the ordinary battle formation cannot correspond, if you want to win, you should use strange tricks, the military book that Xuannu gave me records 18 kinds of weapons to restrain cavalry, any kind of standard arrangement, no matter what kind of iron hooves are like paper paste, so that he has no return." ”

Saying that, dip his hand in wine, draw on the table, first a small circle, then a long cannon barrel, make a cannon, and explain to Zhao Ji, "This is a beginner-level artillery, it can be cast with wrought iron, the firing range is 1,005, and when the two armies face each other, they put out 200 guns, divided into two columns, and the enemy cavalry is thousands of kilometers away, exchange shots, and two salvos can break up the enemy cavalry formation." If the enemy advances, lower the muzzle and shoot again, and if the enemy retreats, raise the muzzle and give a route. ”

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ji frowned, asked him to wait, and pointed to the cannon painted by Wang Han, "The shape of this cannon ...... Why is it so obscene? ”

Wang Han was stunned, and looked at the cannon he had drawn, two round balls below, a thick cannon barrel in the middle, raised high, those who had seen the cannon knew that it was a cannon, and those who had not seen it must have thought it was something in the crotch of a man's pants.

At the moment, he also blushed, and quickly erased and repainted, but this time he painted a bigger one, Wang Han was helpless, "Official, I am a martial artist, I can't do it, it's probably like this, but it's not obscene to really make it, on the contrary, it is extremely brave and handsome, and a cannon can hurt the enemy thirty or forty." ”

Zhao Ji's brows condensed, slowly bowed his head, and then asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Wang Han explained, "One meter is one more step for an adult man, and a thousand kilometers is a thousand steps away." ”

Zhao Ji understood, "With this cannon alone, can you expand the territory?" ”

Wang Han said: "Artillery alone must not work, the focus is to strengthen the army and martial arts, Xuannu Niangniang gave two verses, the official family thinks that the Haicheng Tower in the cannon town is good, that is, the official family has eloquence in the bones, and the way to govern the country is the wind of a strong country. The monarch has great talents, and the country is a tiger, which is powerful all over the world. If the monarch loves the wind and snow, the country is a weak sheep, and the wolves around him can be bullied. ”

This is a concise statement, but it is full of truth. Although Zhao Ji is an artist emperor, his basic ambitions and ideals are no different from ordinary people.

After Wang Han finished speaking, Zhao Ji praised, "It's a good country and martial arts, and it should be my great Song Dynasty, it turns out that all the signs before are God's will." ”

Wang Han who heard it here was surprised, "All kinds of omens before? ”

Seeing that he was puzzled, Zhao Ji smiled twice and left the table, "Come with me." ”

Coming to the second floor of Shengping Building again, Zhao Ji took out a scroll from the bookshelf and slowly opened it in front of Wang Han, "Brother Wang, please take a look." ”

The painting scroll is opened, but it is a six-foot banner, and the two lines of the book are vigorous and powerful: the new law establishes the country, and the Yasukuni is the beginning of the inheritance; Zhuang my mountains and rivers, Shenzhou Zhaohuang Wanshixing.

Wang Han doesn't understand the art of calligraphy and painting, but he can also see that these two lines of writing are extremely chic, which can be called extraordinary, and they are more vigorous and fierce than Zhao Ji's Paozhen Haicheng Tower, and they give people a sense of masculinity and fierceness. Looking at the content of what was said, it was a praise of the new law.

The new law is the reform and reform advocated by Wang Anshi, the purpose of which is to change the phenomenon of poverty and weakness in the Great Song Dynasty, in order to prevent the Great Song Dynasty from being bullied by foreign enemies again.

Wang Han didn't understand the new law, but when he was in the Royal Boxing Gym, Zhou Tong chattered every day, and when he talked about Wang Anshi, he was quite admired, but unfortunately he was born late, decades early, and he must go to Wang Xiang to be a companion.

Although Wang Han does not know much about the government and politics, he has also heard some things, as far as the current situation is concerned, the court is the world of conservatives, even if Zhao Jigui is the son of heaven, there is nothing he can do.

The reason why Zhou Tong drove away Shi Wengong and Luan Tingyu in a row is because the conservatives have been powerful in the past two years, and Shi and Luan have approached the conservatives, which made Zhou Dong angry, which drove them away again and again.

The court is the world of conservatives, but Zhao Ji put a banner praising the new law in the Shengping Building, what does this mean? It shows that this emperor is ambitious and ideal at this time, and he doesn't want the Great Song Dynasty to be poor and weak, so he tries his best to find a way out for the Great Song Dynasty.

Such an idea is right for Wang Han's appetite.

But I don't know who wrote it.

Wang Han asked, and Zhao Ji smiled: "You can't see this word?" Then he said twice, "This is Cai Jing's word." ”

Cai Jing?

The head of the six thieves of the Northern Song Dynasty?

is still a staunch supporter of Wang Anshi's new law?

After being stunned for a short time, Wang Han was relieved, after all, he is a later generation, and he will not look at problems so narrowly, and things are seen from two sides.

Any traitor must be shrewd and talented, otherwise how can he be a supreme minister? Cai Jing can become the head of the six thieves, which shows that he has powerful means, otherwise how could he be the head of the six thieves. What is so strange about such a character being able to write such words and say such things?

Even Wang Han himself can forcibly link the Paozhen Haichenglou with the Shangwu Qiangjun.

At the moment, it doesn't matter whether Cai Jing is a thief or not, anyway, in Wang Han's eyes, history has been rewritten, and he cares who he is, he only cares about one point, how the emperor arranges himself, what kind of official he will give himself, and how he should take the first step to change history.

So he nodded, "Sure enough, it's a sign from heaven, Da Song is in the ascendancy." After speaking, he was silent and waited for the emperor's arrangement.

Zhao Ji didn't say anything, took the scroll, thought for a moment, and asked: "Xuannu Niangniang only teaches you military books and martial arts, but can she pass on your strategy for governing the country?" ”

This is asking Wang Han's ability, and he is going to be given an official. Wang Han was ecstatic in his heart, but his face pretended to be light, and replied: "The content of Yujue passed on by Niangniang, Wen can put pen to the world, and Wu Neng will immediately determine the world, but what I have learned is very short, and I have not fully understood it. ”

It's not that Wang Han is modest in saying this, it's really because he is embarrassed by his handwriting, if he can write, he dares to ask Zhao Ji with a cheeky face to play in a small county town first.

Even so, it also made Zhao Ji happy, and said: "This is very good, I should promote you, but I will be promoted to the ancestral system, except for the scientific examination, and I should have side merit." After speaking, he paused and said: "You have a martial arts and military book, and it should be no problem to make contributions at the border pass, so don't worry about this in advance, and I will make a decision after I have discussed it in the Privy Council." ”

said this, Wang Han was stunned, the emperor wanted to reward his officials, and he had to discuss with his courtiers?

Do the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty have such a dick?

However, since Zhao Ji said that he wanted to make meritorious contributions, the official position was a duck on a plate, and sooner or later it would fall into his mouth, and Wang Han was not in a hurry at this time, so he thanked him first.

As soon as I finished thanking him, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo downstairs stop, and a majestic old voice asked, "Where is the official family?" ”

As soon as this voice came, Zhao Ji's face darkened, he was extremely unhappy, and went downstairs without saying a word, and Wang Han followed closely.

went downstairs, and in front of the main hall stood an old man in a purple robe, with silver eyebrows, flying angrily on both sides, reminding Wang Han of the white-eyed eagle king in film and television dramas.

Seeing Zhao Ji going downstairs, the old man bowed his hand, "Official, the minister has important things to do." ”

After saying that, Zhao Ji didn't move, and the musicians and dancers on both sides around him automatically retreated from both sides, looking panicked, as if they were afraid of the old man.

Wang Han was surprised to see it, and he didn't know who this old man was.

Before he could get out of the door, Zhao Ji waved his hand, and Zhou Bangyan, who was over there, had already gotten up and walked out, and the rest of the people followed closely.

Wang Han knew that the person in front of him was an important minister, so he naturally didn't dare to make a commotion, and walked out quickly.

When I walked to the door, I heard the voice of the old man in the armor inside, followed by Zhao Ji's voice, which seemed to be explaining, "This is a simple diagram of artillery, don't blame the prime minister." ”

Prime minister?

Hearing this title, Wang Han understood, this mighty old man was the prime minister of the dynasty, but he didn't know which one. At the same time, I was a little depressed, I couldn't draw it myself, and I drew a cannon and it turned out to be a bird cannon, and the emperor who was still harmed explained it for myself.

But the most depressed thing is not him, but Huizong Zhao Ji, a military discussion with a good end, which was rumored by the palace insiders to discuss the Fengyue affair, and it should not be spread out of the palace in a few days, which caused everyone to misunderstand Zhao Guan's family a lot, which is not to be mentioned later.
