The Qin family has a small population, but the atmosphere is very harmonious.

From the head of the house to the servants, they all live very casually, eating when they want to eat, and sleeping when they want.

Just when Qin Wei was about to quietly make a beef warm pot at home, his friend Hu Ping, who had not seen him for a long time, came to Qin's house with a big belly.

"Brother Qin...... Ha ha! ”

His laughter grew thicker and thicker, but as soon as Qin Wei saw his belly, he remembered the yellow plate oil below.

"Lao Hu, it's time to lose weight!"

He persuaded him earnestly, but Hu Ping deliberately joked: "Let's wait until one day I fall into the well and can't get out, besides, a certain brother has a means, even if you want to fall into the well, you can save a certain one...... "

Depend on!

It seems that the news of Ma Delu falling into the well has spread all over Bianliang.

However, Qin Wei didn't feel guilty at all, but directly ignored this matter, and continued: "How is our business recently? ”

"Okay!"

Hu Ping praised with a smile: "After we changed the transparent glass bottle last time, those foreign merchants were simply crazy, and they didn't care about the price increase twice. I'm worried right now that those merchants will be tempted to take the risk if they steal the formula......"

He glanced at Qin Wei and saw that his face was not angry, so he sighed: "This time the Northern Expeditionary Army has dispatched more than half of it...... Qin Wei, the rest of the people can't stand it! ”

The current number of the Northern Expeditionary Army is about 500 people, half of whom are responsible for guarding Qinjiazhuang, and half are responsible for guarding the two gunpowder workshops.

The explosives were invented by Qin Wei, but they were also the ...... of the imperial court He must not cross the line on this.

Therefore, more than half of the Northern Expeditionary Army has gone this time, and the security force of Qinjiazhuang has naturally been greatly reduced.

Qin Wei's eyes turned cold, and he asked, "But someone is eyeing the workshop?" ”

The Northern Expeditionary Army's trip was dangerous, and Qin Wei naturally would not retain his strength. If it weren't for the fear of being impeached for violating the rules, he would even send Di Qing out.

Hu Ping shook his head worriedly: "Not yet, but you and I have been businessmen for many years, and we know the truth that wealth moves people's hearts." For the sake of money, those people dare to take risks......"

It's a bit of a numb claw.

Qin Wei thought for a while, "It's okay, I asked Di Qing to go to the front of the palace to find some people, anyway, they have nothing to do, so they should have changed places to practice, so they can watch the workshop for the time being." ”

This is an emergency method, and when the Northern Expeditionary Army returns, they will have to continue to protect the workshop, but in the long run, expanding the Northern Expeditionary Army is the only way out.

But I'm afraid it's not easy.

Even if Zhao Zhen is relieved of him, he can't stand the courtiers' worries.

At the foot of Kyoto, thousands of troops were stationed all the time...... This is equivalent to putting his life in the hands of others, and Lu Yijian will be the first to object.

"Let's see, if there are suitable candidates, the Northern Expeditionary Army can also increase some people at that time."

Then Di Qing used his relationship in the front of the palace to find dozens of veterans, Qin Wei gave a heavy reward, these people patted their chests and said that the workshop was there, and if the workshop was not there, they would not be there.

Hu Ping immediately took this group of people to Zhuangzi outside the city.

"The Northern Expeditionary Army should go to Liao, right?"

The Northern Expeditionary Army that went deep alone was too dangerous, even if these people were all fierce generals with one enemy and ten enemies, Qin Wei was still worried, after all, it was not a country, and there were too many risks in the position.

Di Qing calculated, "If there is no delay on the road, it should be several days." ”

"I'm a little restless here, but unfortunately I don't have the ability to divination, otherwise I would have to calculate a bad luck."

As soon as Qin Wei found someone to strengthen the security of Qinjiazhuang, something happened outside the city.

Daniel Zhang personally came to report: "Lang Jun, someone sneaked into Zhuangzi outside the city last night and ran away after being discovered. ”

Ma's!

"Is there anyone who is really not afraid of death?"

Qin Wei was angry, got up and said, "Di Qing, let's go outside the city, we will meet this group of people who are not afraid of death...... A certain way wants to see, who dares to break ground on the head of the old man. ”

……

In early spring, the south is already full of vitality, but on the other hand, Bianliang, which is slightly northerly, has not seen the tender green, but the vitality is everywhere.

The plan of the day lies in the morning, and the plan of the year lies in the spring.

All walks of life have discarded the laziness of winter and are ready to work for the new year.

Qin Wei didn't live......

can only look around like a blind stream to find something to do, except for the two days when he went to Guozijian to teach, the rest of the time is all over the world.

Zhao Zhen is completely scared now, and he won't summon him at all.

When did my brother become a ghost?

But Qin Wei thinks that this kind of day is very good, there is money and leisure, is there a more comfortable day than this?

But being disliked and having nothing to do is another matter.

After leaving the Nanxun Gate, Qin Wei was about to urge the horse, when a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Commitment ......"

As soon as Qin Wei turned around, he saw Zong Sheng's slightly flattering little face, Qin Wei didn't like this kind of smile, but Zong Sheng was different, although he was flattering, he always gave people a feeling of 'what I said was true'...... Let you know if this is a sycophant, or feel like a spring breeze.

He laughed, "Where is this going?" ”

Zong Sheng was wearing civilian clothes, he turned over and dismounted, and arched his hand and said: "My lord doesn't know anything, and the court has sent the officials abroad...... But this time it's not a foreigner, it's Fuzhou...... Your Majesty has an order to set off in two days. ”

Northwest Ah!

It seems that the Great Song Dynasty is focusing on the northwest, which is a good thing.

"It's a good thing, so that you have a resume in the army, and you can be promoted in the future...... Although you are the deputy commander of the Secretariat, Your Majesty has just taken power, and there are not many people who are competent and trustworthy, so you must seize the opportunity......"

Qin Wei also felt that this was a good thing, so he asked casually, "What about Qiu Shuxuan?" How is it arranged? ”

Tang Ren led the horse and approached and said in a low voice: "Some people say that Qiu Shuxuan has colluded with the Zhe family and doesn't want to let him go, but it is estimated that it is not easy to arrange it in the capital." ”

"!"

Qin Wei was a little angry: "Qiu Shuxuan cooperated well with Zhe Jimin over there, and he only won a few battles, and he was remembered?" According to them, Qiu Shuxuan has to drag Jimin's hind legs, isn't this called collusion...... Fuck, what bullshit logic! ”

He was furious, but Zong Sheng could only smile bitterly: "My lord, Xia Guan has never been in contact with these before, if you go there...... How to do it! ”

If you do a good job, you will be suspicious, and if you don't do it well...... Zhao Zhen was afraid that he would give up on him.

It's an opportunity, but it's also a danger.

After all, Zong Sheng is a cadre promoted by Qin Wei, and the reason why he can be trusted by Zhao Zhen is that his ability is only one aspect, and it is more because of Qin Wei's relationship.

The ministers of the DPRK and China understand this.

Therefore, it is inevitable to suppress Zong Sheng, otherwise Qin Wei's power will grow......

"If you can't do it well, you feel sorry!"

That's a good way to say it......

Qin Wei looked at him carefully, and when he saw that he was calm, he nodded and said: "It's good to know that you are sorry, and if you are afraid, you only care about promotion, regardless of right or wrong...... There will be nothing going on in the northwest recently, although Li Yuanhao really wants to fight with Da Song, but he also knows that it is no good to attack rashly...... At most, it's a small army temptation, or a horse thief in the vicinity...... What are you going to do? ”

Zong Sheng said without hesitation: "If anyone dares to come to the border, kill them!" ”

Qin Wei said approvingly: "That's what it means, even if you get it, if anyone in the court dares to slander Your Majesty, it depends on whether a certain fist is hard or not." ”

Hit someone again?

And also for me to beat the officials.

Zong Sheng was moved in his heart, but he persuaded with a concerned face: "My lord, it's not a good thing to make too many enemies, you still value peace." ”

Qin Wei smiled, "It's not a good thing to have too much credit, you have to spend a thing or two." ”

That's it......

Qin Wei has made too many credits in the past few years, and it is too much to be crowned a privy deputy envoy, but he is ...... age At this age, the Privy Counsellor, I'm afraid those people in the court will go crazy, right?

Zong Sheng smiled bitterly and arched his hand: "Don't worry, my lord, Xia Guan will definitely not lose your people." ”

He is Qin Wei's person who has long been recognized.

But the performance of this bachelor still won Qin Wei's affirmation.

"You can rest assured that Zhi Jimin's side is an alliance with the Zhi family, so you can rest assured that you can do it, and you will come back in a few years...... There have not been many wars in the past few years, but there should be no less provocations in Western Xia, if you can grasp it, it will be a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions. ”

Qin Wei's judgment of the diplomatic situation was a prophet, and his accurate predictions several times made Zong Sheng shocked.

So as soon as he heard his prediction, this guy was overjoyed: "If you can kill Li Yuanhao...... That's great! That's a great achievement! ”

Qin Wei encouraged: "If you are brave enough, you can try it, maybe you can really kill him." ”

Zong Sheng said abruptly: "My lord, you are joking, even if Li Yuanhao is willing to come to the battle formation in person, then he will be in the Chinese army, and it is impossible to be in the front." ”

Qin Wei smiled slightly, and said in his heart that this is not necessarily.

The reason why Li Yuanhao has been able to get to this point today is not all because of Lao Tzu Li Deming, who is very good at using the means of leading by example to boost morale.

If you want to stabilize power, you must get the support of the military, and Li Yuanhao sees this very clearly.

Zong Sheng pondered these words slowly, and felt that he had gained something for a while.

"Western Xia was poor, and if you want to develop, you must plunder from outside...... They can't get the Liao people, and the Fan people are also poor, and the best one is the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zong Sheng's pondering was not bad, Qin Weizheng wanted to praise him a few words, but he saw that Zong Sheng's eyes were round, and then he shouted.

"Be careful, sir! There are assassins! ”

A man was walking in the direction of Qin Wei's left side, and suddenly took out a short knife and pounced.

Ay!

There are really people who are not afraid of death......

"Why is this going on!"

Passers-by on the side were exclaiming, but Qin Wei didn't move, just shook his head lightly.

Qiao Feng's reaction was very fast, he drew his knife and slashed, and the man subconsciously blocked with a short blade, but was slashed by the long knife.

Qiao Feng was about to make a move, Qin Wei shouted: "Ride your horse and crash over!" ”

As soon as the man turned around and was about to flee, when he heard this, he turned back in despair and shouted, "Kill you!" ”

He took something out of his bosom and threw it over.
