Chapter 109: Mermaids
After receiving Cao Zhengchun's letter, Zhao Zili did not panic and called the inner secret agent who had been locked up in the Jingxian Division.
"Although Your Majesty believes your words, this king is still suspected of quelling the flood in Qingzhou, do you have any way?" If you want to deal with Xuanhu Villa, you still need the help of these people.
Shangguan Yunzhu thought for a while and said: "Unless the prince can offer protection that is of great help to the fortunes of the country, the owner of the village values the fluctuations of the fortunes of the country the most, if he can divert his attention is the best way, the speed is even faster, and the secret agent of the Xuanhu Mountain Villa will arrive within half a month." ”
Zhao Zili thought about it, there really was, and then ordered someone to bring up the horseshoe and stirrups, and said: "This is something invented by this king, which can make the cavalry walk on the ground on horseback and get up and shoot arrows, this should be enough." ”
Duan Tianya once saw the value of this thing at a glance when he was in the army in his early years, and said: "I can't imagine that the prince is so skillful, no wonder Haining is so strong, with this Great Zhou cavalry, the strength has increased at least several times." ”
"Okay, this king will let you go back, but you have to drive out the betrayal of this king, don't forget the karmic fire in your heart." Zhao Zili knew that in order to convince Emperor Wu and the people of Xuanhu Villa, they had to let them go.
"Yes, Weichen doesn't dare." With the horseshoes and other items given to them by Zhao Zili, Duan Tianya and the four returned to Luoyang.
A few days later, on the way, he met Long Daoren, one of the secret agents of Xuanhu Mountain Villa who came to Haining.
Longdao people, the cultivation of the peerless [a thousand miles a day], the realm of practice and return to the void, the speed is extremely fast, trekking through mountains and rivers like walking on the ground, and they are better at concealing and probing news.
"Duan Tianya, why did the four of you come back, it seems that there is still no news about the jade seal of the country." Long Daoren asked.
"I didn't expect the owner of the village to send you back, the jade seal of the country was not found, but the King of Song has a treasure to give to His Majesty, with this thing, the cavalry of the Great Zhou Dynasty will surpass Dongyi and Xiqin, and there will be no opponent in the world." Duan Tianyan looked arrogant, he definitely had to fool the Long Dao people at this moment, otherwise he would be exposed.
Sure enough, Long Daoren was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What is it, is it related to Haining's sudden change in luck." ”
"Yes, the stakes are high, the four of us must rush back to Luoyang, you better continue your mission." Duan Tianya took retreat as advance, which made the Dragon Dao people in a dilemma, in case the treasure was lost, he would not be able to escape the responsibility, but once the treasure was fake, there was no way to end it.
"Don't get in the way there, this thing will be presented to Your Majesty one day sooner and it will be safe one day sooner." Cheng Shifei was very arrogant, but he didn't take the Longdao people in his eyes.
Long Daoren's heart was crossed, and he said: "I'll be with you, the treasure cannot be lost, and it's not too late for King Song to go there." ”
Duan Tianyan and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and in this way, they returned to Luoyang together and met Emperor Wu.
"Why are you all back?" Emperor Wu looked at a few people and was very puzzled.
"Your Majesty, King Song has important treasures presented, and Weichen is afraid that there will be losses on the road, so he invited the Longdao people to escort him together." Duan Tianya's words surprised Long Daoren, he didn't expect him to be able to defend himself.
"Oh, what treasure can make you so excited."
Duan Tianya showed the horseshoe, stirrups, and saddle in front of Emperor Wu, and said: "Your Majesty, this was inadvertently invented by Zai Haining, the king of Song, these items can increase the combat effectiveness of the Great Zhou cavalry several times, and become the first cavalry in the world in one fell swoop." ”
Then he also explained the method of use, and Emperor Wu was very happy after hearing it: "Okay, I didn't expect my son to be so smart, with this thing, Da Zhou will no longer be afraid of Dongyi and Western Qin cavalry." ”
Emperor Wu laughed heartily, thinking in his heart that this was probably one of the reasons for the change in Haining's national fortunes, and it was strange that Haining's luck did not improve.
"There is another matter, an official under the command of King Song was martyred in order to protect the prince, and it is said that this person followed the prince from the end of Weimo."
Emperor Wu frowned and asked, "What's the matter, is there still someone who assassinated Zili, what are the defenders of Haining for?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, this person was attacked and arrested outside the city, and in order to prevent himself from being unable to bear the torture, he committed suicide by taking poison in advance."
"It's a pity, a generation of loyal ministers, you can rest in the afternoon first." Emperor Wu sighed with emotion.
After the four of them left, Yuan Shi walked in: "Your Majesty, it seems that the matter in Qingzhou is not like what the King of Song did, I am afraid that the people in the disaster have made a move, and they will blame others to cause our internal strife." ”
"I think so too, Qingzhou Taishou also sent a report, Zili's fleet just entered Qingzhou, the flood will be calmed down, how can it be so fast." Emperor Wu scoffed a little, there was really such a master who defected to King Song, and now he would be very happy if he didn't pursue it.
"Yes, King Song is a genius, and now he has the fortune of the country, maybe he can live a little longer, but Your Majesty should not be in a hurry, King Song is really like a fish in water when he arrives in Haining."
Emperor Wu also nodded, without Luoyang's deception, Lao Qi may be able to completely recover his body, and now it is better to go with the flow.
"Yuanzhi, let those four big inner secret agents go to protect Zili, there are not many masters around him, and he can't be in danger."
Duan Tianya, if they heard Emperor Wu say this, they would definitely cry bitterly, God, we can't rank on King Song's side at all, there are too many masters.
Two months have passed in a blink of an eye, and Zhao Zili's wine has finally been brewed, and the Zhongwei officials in Liluo and Jinzhou have been waiting for a long time.
Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver poured into Haining, Zhao Zili finally had plenty of money, and he greatly underestimated the ability of these drunkards, Haining's fine wine was like a drop of water falling into a hot pot, instantly detonating Jinzhou, countless merchants frantically entered Haining, even if they left the wine and made several times the profit.
"Lord Wang, don't you know, those people are so crazy, Du Kang in the brewery is almost tired." In order to fill the vacancy of Gao Xibao, Zhao Zili transferred Liu An to the Shanhai Division, and he is now Cao Zhengchun's nephew Cao Ang, although he is young, but he has been trained by Cao Zhengchun since he was a child and taught the peerless [Tiangang Tongzi Gong] The current realm of refining qi and transforming gods, he is very old and spicy, which makes Zhao Zili very satisfied.
"Well, yes, if you don't have enough people, you will recruit people."
"Don't worry, but a few days ago, Fan Jiangongzi came to the news, he is ready to enter the palace to offer wine, just in time for New Year's Day, and he will definitely be able to sell well, I hope that the prince is transferring a batch to Luoyang."
Fan Jian is worthy of being a business wizard, he didn't sell it immediately after getting the wine before, but sprinkled a little wine at the door every day, saying that this is a fine wine under development, but it has lost the appetite of Luoyang people for several months.
"This kid, listen to him, give it to him in batches."
"Yes, the subordinates retired." After Liu An left, Jiang Gongwang came, since Gao Xibao was attacked, he worked day and night to develop the enchantment pillar, and finally successfully installed the important locations near Haining.
In order to speed up the progress of the project, Zhao Zili specially made a series of professional tools for construction such as vernier calipers, scaffolding, and levels, and the craftsmen who watched were dumbfounded, but fortunately, everyone was also good at this, and it didn't take long to learn how to use it.
"Lord Wang, the construction of the outer city wall has been completed, just wait for the cement to dry thoroughly and the enchantment pillars to be completed, but if you want to start, you need to inject internal force from the martial arts."
Zhao Zili was very satisfied, and said: "Well done, you don't need to worry about the problem of martial artists, this king is going to release a new martial arts review, and he will definitely be able to attract enough martial artists when the time comes." ”
"Yes, the subordinates understand, and the subordinates retire."
"Boy, now that the wind has finally calmed down for a while, it's time for your cultivation to begin." Bai is now recovering quickly, Haining's luck has been absorbed by him a lot, and his body is becoming more and more condensed.
"Well, the crane of the Seven Elements Fist has been practiced, and it is time to practice other boxing techniques next."
Zhao Zili has gone the farthest in the Qiji Dao so far, the first step [Creation] has reached the requirements, and the cracks that turn the sky have gradually decreased after countless new inventions have been created.
The second step [Dao Transmission Road News] went smoothly, and finally the Heavenly Seal gave him a new reply, a method of opening the [Seven Elements Fist] and [Seven Elements Forbidden Land].
Seven-shaped fist dragon, snake, tiger, leopard, elephant, monkey, crane, the seven-form is the rigidity of all things, and those who practice the seven-form can pursue all things in heaven and earth.
The Seven Elements Forbidden Land is independent in a small space, although the damage is also very serious, but it can barely be used, and the most important thing is that the passage of time is one-third of the outside world.
Zhao Zili is a genius in the sky, practicing hard day and night, and with the assistance of the Dream Fairy Pillow, he has already practiced crane boxing and monkey boxing.
"Your mother is really powerful, if it weren't for that great battle that caused the Heavenly Dao to be incomplete, she would definitely be able to achieve a new Red Dust Immortal." Seeing the Dream Immortal Pillow, Bai admired Zhao Zili's mother very much, and actually walked out of her own way with the incomplete dream immortal inheritance.
"I only know that my mother's name is Ningxia, and even Ouchi doesn't have many records of her, and I also asked Chen Xiaocheng in addition to teaching her martial arts, that is, the hairpin, which should be made of the same material as the jade pillow."
Zhao Zili sighed, who doesn't want to have his mother by his side, Bai patted him on the shoulder.
"Chestnut, I'm here, let's talk." Chen Xiaotang's cheerful voice remembered that the Seagod Guard handed over to her by Chen Luoyang had already arrived in Haining.
Now her favorite thing is to learn from Zhao Zili, and the two have made great progress in training each other.
"Let's take a day off today, it's too much." Zhao Zili smiled bitterly, he was too tired in the past few months, but finally everything was safe.
"Okay, by the way, my father gave me a team of Poseidon Guards but fishmen, do you want to see it."
Chen Xiaocheng's face was proud, the East China Sea could win for a long time, the fishman was great and very mysterious, few outsiders had seen it.
"Mermaid, take me to see it."
Zhao Zili got up from the chair, fish man, he had never seen this before.
"Mermaids, this adjective is good, they must like it. Go, I'll take you. ”
The two soon came to a secluded shore, far from the harbor and covered with reefs that ordinary boats and people could not set foot in.
But for the martial arts of two people, it is not a difficult thing.
Chen Xiaocheng took out a conch and blew a beautiful sound.
"This is, the [Everything] Conch of Heaven, actually in her hands," Bai said suddenly.
Suddenly, the sea began to fluctuate, and one by one the fishmen surfaced, led by a woman, who saluted Chen Xiaotang: "See Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Zhao Zili stared intently, wow, there really is a mermaid.
