Chapter 64: The Secret of Heaven Must Not Be Revealed
After King Wu left, King Ze opened the brocade box on the case, and saw that it contained a bunch of green silk and a simple silver hairpin.
King Wu obviously took the bonus to threaten An Fupei.
King Ze laughed and thought to himself, fortunately, what King Wu took was only something outside of Hua Hong's body, otherwise, he would not have been as simple as robbing him of medicine.
……
The next day, An Fupei really asked Xiaoqi to recruit people to go to Mangshan to cut miscanthus grass, but be careful not to get too close to King Wu's camp, as long as there is a lot of movement one or two miles away, so that King Wu will not be able to live in peace.
Cutting a load of miscanthus grass costs a tael of silver, which is simply a robbery of money.
There are so many miscanthus grass on Mangshan Mountain, you can cut it casually, and you can cut seven or eight loads a day.
Xiaoqi recruited hundreds of people at once, and rushed to Mangshan, and there was an endless stream of people who caught up behind, hating the grandmother for having a leg, and when he arrived at Mangshan, there were already six or seven hundred people.
As for Xiao Wu, An Fupei took matters into his own hands, used some retouching powder and eyebrow powder to paint him with an elderly makeup, and then pasted his beard with alcohol glue, and made him into a tent man with a slightly hunched back, put on a brown silk robe, and put an abacus between his armpits, and really asked him to touch the camp tent of King Wu to ask for rent.
……
King Wu sat in the tent of the camp, how did he know that so many ordinary people suddenly came to Mangshan, holding a sickle in his hand, carrying a flat pole and hemp rope on his shoulder, it was simply lively!
One by one, they were like evil spirits, and when they saw miscanthus, their eyes lit up, and they let go of their hands and feet to harvest desperately.
Although these people did not come to the Martial King's camp, the Martial King definitely couldn't be calm.
One or two people are fine, King Wu thinks it's okay to kill it. But these nearly 1,000 people, if King Wu kills them all, the commotion is too big to end.
Besides, King Wu came to win the hearts of the people, how could he kill so many people.
King Wu sent a spy to investigate, and the spy came back and said that it was King Ze who wanted to change Mangshan into Peach Blossom Mountain, so he found someone to harvest Mangcao and gave one or two pieces of silver.
King Wu directly reprimanded King Ze for being a loser and threw the silver into the water.
The scout's flickering eyes were clearly envious, a soldier like him, who fought with knives and guns on the battlefield and whose life and death were unpredictable, only had fifteen taels of military salary a year, which was not too much of a loss.
He thinks that if he goes to him, he can cut twenty loads of miscanthus in a day!
King Wu's eyes were almost about to kill, but Xiao Wu came to ask him to collect the rent.
At this time, King Wu realized that this Mangshan had been bought by King Ze and given to An Fupei.
What's going on! King Wu is the prince who guards the frontier, he has always only known about battlefield conquests, and the court is calculating, he feels that the soldiers meet Xiucai at this time, he wants to fight, and people have to be reasonable, which is really a headache.
King Wu smashed several wine bottles on the case, so he had to lock Xiao Wu up first, and then cut off a bunch of Xiao Wu's hair and gave it to An Fupei as a gift.
King Wu was so irritable that the fifth prince Ying Jingyu was training in the valley under the wind cliff.
Out of the five thousand male soldiers, three thousand were selected to be strong and quick-witted, and in groups of three and a thousand in groups, according to the strategy of King Ze, one of them feinted with a spear, one of them with a short iron hammer hit him in the abdomen, and one of them slashed his neck with a knife.
The three of them each shouted slogans, ordered to rise, and shot with weapons, although the three actions were in order, they were like meteors catching the moon, and there was almost no gap, which made people unable to deal with it.
The army of the fifth prince Ying Jingyu, although it was established by order, was only allocated more than 10,000 yuan at the beginning, and then it was forgotten by the Yue Emperor, and it was all up to King Ze's relief to persevere.
Each pawn is equipped with a warhorse.
The weapons used, such as the heads of spears and broadswords, were made of stainless steel.
As for the hammer, it was made of meteoric iron, and unlike the other armies, the head of the hammer was only the size of a fist, but it weighed about thirty or forty pounds.
The armor is prepared to make complex iron Luo ring armor, the inner layer is made of cowhide, and the outer layer is iron mesh armor, and the armor pieces are connected like fish scales, and arrows cannot penetrate it.
This is the most advanced armor in the world today, not only has good protection, but also can be expanded and contracted with the movement of the body, and it is also very carryable.
The only downside is the hassle to make.
If it weren't for King Ze's financial support, this army would not have been able to get such good equipment.
Therefore, when King Ze asked Tudou to bring news and ask for help, Ying Jingyu agreed without hesitation.
What's more, he heard that it was to treat the epidemic in Xunyang.
……
The news of the epidemic in Xunyang has been transmitted back to Kyoto, and the court is shocked.
Because there is no cure for this kind of epidemic for thousands of years, once the epidemic occurs, not only the whole city will be killed, but also the surrounding towns and villages will be implicated, and hundreds of thousands of people will die of the disease at every turn, millions of people.
And this epidemic has not happened for thirty or forty years.
Why did it suddenly erupt in Xunyang?
Zhang Shuyi, the chief officer of Qintian Prison, watched the sky at night and found that "there are stars in the Beidou", which is a warning from heaven!
As soon as the courtiers calculated, it must be the emperor who lost his morality.
Emperor Yue Yingli has already issued an edict of guilt, but the rumors inside and outside the court are still not stopped.
The crown prince Ying Jinglong even knelt at the door of the Taihe Palace, saying that he wanted to atone for his father's sins.
Da Chu, who was in the western border of Da Yue, had already assembled an army and lined up outside the Xiqi Diexiu Mountain.
……
At this time, it was the time when Dayue was worried about internal and external troubles, and King Wu actually left his post without permission and ran to Xunyang to obstruct An Fupei's treatment of the epidemic!
Si Cheng is hateful!
The fifth prince, Ying Jingyu, was eager to immediately send troops to recruit King Wu.
However, since Zewang Tan heard the news that King Wu's soldiers had eaten genetic preparations, they were too powerful.
The fifth prince Ying Jingyu is still patient, obeys King Ze's arrangement, and trains his troops well.
……
On the other side, An Fupei remembered that Zheng Chaozong was innocent, so he sent someone to ask Xiao Si to put Zheng Chaozong back.
Zheng Chaozong heard that it was King Wu who destroyed the machine, and burst into tears for a while, his grievances could be regarded as cleared.
At the end of the day and night, he was pressed on the bed by Xiao Si, but he kept his eyes open and never fell asleep at all.
Instead, he lay on the bed with a sore back and two big dark circles, like a giant panda.
Fortunately, An Fupei investigated for him clearly and returned his innocence, otherwise, he would have spent his life in regret and self-blame.
Zheng Chaozong breathed a sigh of relief, like a boulder on his chest.
But just after a while, he was worried again, "What now?" What to do? There is no golden lotus! There is still no golden lotus! What should I do about the epidemic in Xunyang? What about the people of Xunyang? ”
An Fupei said: "Don't worry, His Royal Highness King Ze has already made arrangements, and tomorrow afternoon, a large number of golden lotuses will be transported to Xunyang on time." ”
Zheng Chaozong was incredulous, "Really? Where did you get the golden lotus? How did you get it? How do you ship it? ”
Looking at Zheng Chaozong, who was like an ant on a hot pot, An Fupei only said lightly, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked." ”
Zheng Chaozong is in a hurry! He couldn't wait to dig out his heart, liver and lungs, but when he turned his head, An Fupei and Zewang were sitting leisurely under the verandah basking in the sun, with a table in front of him, and several plates, on which there were some candied fruits, crystal cakes, hibiscus cakes, and so on.
While drinking milk tea, the two talked about the folk customs of Xunyang, and they were actually peaceful, and there was no anxiety at all.
Could it be that what Ann Fupei said is true? Really got the golden lotus?
That should be true.
An Fupei's feeling to Zheng Chaozong is very stable.
From the time I met her to the present, although she set up flags one by one, which sounds incredible, everyone has finally realized it.
King Ze looked at Zheng Chaozong's dull gaze, raised the glass in his hand to him, and invited: "Why don't you sit down and have a drink together?" ”
Zheng Chaozong sat down in a trance, and before he had time to drink, his head tilted, and he fell asleep on the table.
This sleep, snoring like thunder.
