Zhou Cui was confined to a small courtyard.

She wore light makeup, her melon seed face was sad, and her emerald green jacket was draped over her body, which made it even more poignant.

The locked courtyard door was suddenly opened, and she was so frightened that she immediately stood up.

When she saw Wang Chenshan, her face changed drastically, and she subconsciously retreated.

Bao Sanyuan said: "This is Gonggong Wei, the overseer of Dongchang, if Miss Zhou has any grievances, she can sue Gonggong Wei." ”

Zhou Cui gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see Your Majesty." ”

Wei Xiaobao laughed when he heard this.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhou Cui's eyes were gloomy.

Wei Xiaobao said: "A folk girl, a little wronged, cried and wanted to see Your Majesty, Your Majesty is so idle?" ”

"Although the people's girls are not talented, they have heard a word, which is called the protection of officials and officials." Zhou Cui is very sharp.

Wei Xiaobao smiled lightly, took out a thousand taels of silver ticket from his arms, handed it to Zhou Cui, and said, "Girl, I will give you two choices now, either take the silver ticket and go home, or let Lord Wang personally dig a pit and bury you in this garden." ”

Zhou Cui looked at Wei Xiaobao in horror.

With this choice, it's easy to make a decision.

She took the silver ticket, bowed her head and left.

With these thousand taels of silver tickets, it is enough to hire a car to go home.

"Overseer, just let her go?" Wang Chenshan's hands were clasped together, and his expression was extremely uneasy.

If Zhou Cui didn't leave Chang'an, but talked nonsense everywhere in the city, the matter would have become even more troublesome.

Wei Xiaobao sneered: "I know that I can't stay, why are you still stunned?" ”

Wang Chenshan was stunned.

Bao Sanyuan understood what Wei Xiaobao meant, and urged: "Brother Wang, hurry up and keep an eye on Zhou Cui, and when she leaves Chang'an City, you will get rid of her." ”

"Okay." Wang Chenshan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Wei Xiaobao instructed again: "Do it cleanly, it's best for you to run it yourself, and Zhou Cui's family can't stay." ”

"Overseer, this is ......" Wang Chenshan felt that there was no need for this.

Wei Xiaobao laughed and said, "If Lord Wang is not afraid that Zhou Cui's family will come to Chang'an to find someone in the future, he will not listen to my good words." ”

Chop the grass without removing the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows.

When Wang Chenshan thought about that scene, he felt palpitations and immediately did so.

When he returned to the East Factory, Zhang Hatdie was carefully cleaned up, as if he had changed people.

If it weren't for the lack of sticks, Wei Xiaobao would have wanted to keep Zhang Hatdie by his side to enjoy.

There was still some time, Wei Xiaobao entered a small courtyard and studied black powder alone.

The saltpeter brought from Guangming Ding was stored here, and the sulfur and charcoal were purchased in Chang'an.

The materials are complete, only the preparation is missing.

The craftsmen who make fireworks and firecrackers in Chang'an City use very rough black powder.

Wei Xiaobao specially brought some for research and found that the proportion of preparation was very unreasonable.

Forty percent saltpeter, thirty percent sulfur, and thirty percent charcoal, although the black powder prepared according to this ratio can be used to make fireworks, it is absolutely impossible to kill the enemy on a large scale.

The best recipe for black powder appeared in the nineteenth century, and the proportion of three substances was: saltpeter 75%, sulfur 10%, and charcoal 15%.

According to this ratio, the ultimate black powder is concocted, and the power is huge.

The prepared black powder is actually not easy to store and is prone to accidents.

That's where spirits come in.

The prepared black powder is mixed with spirits into a paste, dried in the sun, and then ground into powder, which can be easily preserved.

Knowing the recipe and the ingredients, it is still very easy to prepare.

But Wei Xiaobao only made a small barrel, stirred it with spirits, and dried it in the house.

As for the effect, we can only know it after it is dried.

Walking out of the small courtyard, it was almost dusk.

Xiao An was waiting outside, and when he saw Wei Xiaobao coming out, he said respectfully, "Master, Your Majesty is invited." ”

According to the usual practice, Li Zheng will have a banquet for hundreds of officials in the Imperial Garden tonight to welcome the New Year.

The Manchu Dynasty civil and military, all received invitations.

And those important ministers in the court can bring their families into the palace.

Of course, Wei Xiaobao can also do it.

When he came to the nine-colored courtyard, Wei Xiaobao asked Nangong Yushang and Zhang Hatdie to pack up and follow him into the palace.

Both daughters were nervous.

Wei Xiaobao chuckled and said: "Your Majesty is also a human being, so he won't eat you, and the delicacies made by the palace kitchen, if you miss this time, you will have to wait a year if you want to eat it again." ”

"Uncle, I want to go." Hearing that there was something delicious, Qingyue's eyes lit up.

Wei Xiaobao said: "There is no place for you." ”

Qingyue's expression was suddenly very lost.

Half an hour later, the three of them left the Dongchang Yamen, and there was a sedan chair waiting outside the door.

The person who carried the sedan chair was the eunuch of the East Factory, and he went straight into the palace and went straight to the imperial garden.

Outside the Imperial Garden, I got off the sedan chair.

Bai Muliang took many officials and waited outside the Imperial Garden to greet him.

"See Overseer." The officials saluted in unison.

Wei Xiaobao quickly got off the sedan chair and frowned: "You want me to die?" ”

All the officials were immediately terrified.

Bai Muliang smiled and said, "Overseer, it was Your Majesty who asked me to wait here to greet you. ”

Wei Xiaobao frowned and said nothing, turned around and helped Nangong Yushang down from the sedan chair.

Bai Muliang's eyes were full of shock and doubt.

The same goes for the rest of the officials.

Nangong Yushang helped Zhang Hatdie down again.

The two fairy-like women stood together, overshadowing this luxurious deep palace.

The promenades on both sides of the Imperial Garden are full of tables and chairs, and the delicacies are fragrant.

Wei Xiaobao took his second daughter and came straight to Li Zheng and knelt on the ground to salute.

Li Zheng was a little confused, but still smiled: "Xiaobao, get up and sit down." ”

On either side of Li Zheng, there were only two seats, Di Qing was already sitting on the left, and Wei Xiaobao was left on the right.

At the back of Wei Xiaobao's seat, there are two vacant seats, which are prepared for Wei Xiaobao's cronies.

Li Zheng knew that Wei Xiaobao had no family, but he still deliberately set up two seats to show his appreciation for Wei Xiaobao.

Li Zheng asked all the ministers to take their seats, and then looked at Wei Xiaobao with a smile and asked, "Xiaobao, who are these two?" ”

"This is Uchiko Nangong Yushang." Wei Xiaobao pointed to Nangong Yushang and said.

Li Zheng was stunned and said, "When did you become a parent?" ”

"Before entering the palace." Wei Xiaobao smiled bitterly.

Among the hundred officials, many people snickered in their hearts, leaving such a beautiful wife to enter the palace as a eunuch, Wei Xiaobao is really a model for men.

Wei Xiaobao pointed at Zhang Hatdie again and said, "This is Yushang's friend Zhang Hatdie." ”

Li Zheng asked casually, and immediately announced the official opening of the banquet.

The juggling troupe invited from the folk was also on the stage in the distance, performing to their heart's content, ushering in bursts of applause.

After the time of Zizheng, it is another year of New Year, inside and outside the palace, and all the squares in Chang'an are set off with fireworks.

Whether it is Nangong Yushang or Zhang Hatdie, they have never seen so many such beautiful fireworks.

The night banquet ended, and the hundred officials retired.

Li Zheng only left Wei Xiaobao, saying that he had something important to discuss.

When leaving the Imperial Garden, Li Zheng subconsciously glanced at Zhang Hatdie a few more times.

Those eyes attracted Li Zheng from the beginning, but Li Zheng, as the emperor, naturally couldn't come forward to talk to Zhang Hatdie.

Since Zhang Hatdie is a friend of Mrs. Wei Xiaobao, there will be opportunities to contact him in the future.

"Xiaobao, that hated butterfly ......" As soon as Li Zheng opened his mouth, he felt that it was wrong.

That's not what he was trying to say.

Wei Xiaobao smiled: "She is one of the hundred show girls. ”

"Really?" Li Zheng's eyes lit up.

PS: It's a little late, forgive me, by the way, ask for a recommendation ticket.
