Chapter 167: Zi Long, Zi Long, Zi Long, Unparalleled in the World!
Standing outside the Zihuan Palace, Du Yunshan raised his head slightly, looking at the blue sky, and his mood could be described as very good.
Two days ago, he received a letter from Chu Mojuzi and his teacher Tian Weisheng.
The teacher said in the letter that after learning that he was reused by the Son of Heaven, he was quite relieved, and made an exception to eat a few more bites of meat and drink a few more glasses of wine.
He also said that Linjiang Prefecture, where the Jiangnan camp is located, has now also opened Xinglin Temple, and he plans to wait until the summer heat to move there to recuperate.
If there are no accidents, he will spend the last part of his life in Xinglinyuan. He also plans to compile what he has learned throughout his life into a book and pass it on to future generations in his spare time.
In addition, Tian Weisheng also said in the letter that he only left a few Mo disciples to serve him, and the rest were all sent to Shenjing City to join Du Yunshan, one to help him deal with some miscellaneous matters, and the other to broaden his horizons and expand the influence of the Mo family in Shenjing City.
For this matter, Du Yunshan is quite supportive.
Because in addition to being a courtier of the Chu State, he is also a disciple of the Mo family.
One hero, three gangs, one fence and three piles.
With the help of his brothers and sisters, he can also quickly gain a foothold in Shenjing City.
He had a hunch that His Majesty valued the Mo family far more than he imagined. Therefore, he must make achievements to prove that the Mo family is worthy of His Majesty's trust and investment.
What's more, His Majesty will implement the imperial examination system early next year.
If he can make great achievements before this, maybe the disciples of the Mo family can also get a few qualifications for the exam.
Just when Du Yuanshan was thinking like this, a voice suddenly came from his ears.
"Lord Du, Your Majesty has summoned you to the palace."
Du Yuanshan, who came back to his senses, looked at the tall and handsome waiter in front of him, and hurriedly bowed his hand to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, tall mink."
Gao Lishi bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Lord Du is polite, this is our family's business." Let's enter the palace first, don't make Your Majesty wait for a long time. ”
Gao Lishi is already smart and quick-witted, as Zhao Yu's personal attendant, he can naturally see that Zhao Yu attaches great importance to the disciples of the Mo family, so the scale in front of the other party is extremely accurate, without any shelf, but not too close.
He knew that His Majesty was his only supporter.
As long as he completes the tasks assigned to him by His Majesty, does not interfere too much in the affairs of the court, and does not get too close to the courtiers, then no one can shake his position.
After all, he was also discovered and promoted by His Majesty when he was not in power.
In terms of qualifications, he is also second only to Wang Shumi and Commander Zhang.
"Minister, Du Yuanshan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, see Your Majesty!"
Entering the Zihuan Palace, Du Yuanshan respectfully bowed to Zhao Yu.
"Let's be flat," Zhao Yu, who was reviewing the folds at the desk, raised his head, glanced at him, and instructed Gao Lishi, "Give Du Shilang a seat and tea." ”
"Thank you, Lord Long."
Du Yuanshan took the tea handed over, carefully put half of his butt on the round stool, leaned forward slightly, and waited for Zhao Yu's inquiry at any time.
Putting down the red pen, Zhao Yu asked with a smile:
"I heard Du Qing go up and say that the clairvoyant mirror has been completed? Where the sample is, let me see. ”
When Du Yuanshan heard this, he hurriedly took out a long cylindrical thing from his sleeve, held it in both hands, and handed it to Gao Lishi, who walked to his side.
Taking the clairvoyant mirror from Gao Lishi's hand, Zhao Yu looked at it carefully.
I saw an emerald green bamboo tube on both sides, each inlaid with a polished lens, which was the clairvoyant mirror that Zhao Yu asked Du Yuanshan to make.
This workmanship is rough enough.
Zhao Yu complained in his heart, immediately took the clairvoyant mirror, walked to the window of the Zihuan Palace, raised the clairvoyant mirror and put it in front of his eyes, and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, five or six miles away, the figures of the Praetorian guards patrolling back and forth on the palace wall were clearly visible.
"Lux, you can give it a try too."
Seeing Gao Lishi's curious expression, Zhao Yu casually handed over the clairvoyant mirror.
Gao Lishi carefully took it, followed Zhao Yu's appearance and put it in front of him, and then looked into the distance.
"Oh my God, this, this!"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Gao Lishi was horrified, trembling all over, and almost threw out the clairvoyant mirror in his hand.
"Your Majesty, this, this, what kind of ghost is this? What is the scene that appeared in front of the slave maid's eyes? ”
Gao Lishi looked at Zhao Yu, his lips trembled, and he couldn't even speak clearly for a while.
Zhao Yu looked at Gao Lishi's surprised appearance, shook his head a little funny, and explained casually:
"Look at the appearance of your minion, it's just a magnification of the distant scenery several times."
Du Yuanshan on the side looked at Zhao Yu with admiration in his eyes.
"Your Majesty is really a holy monarch, when this thing was first created, the minister was also startled, and then slowly figured it out."
Also, if His Majesty did not know the purpose of this thing, how could he allow himself to make it?
Du Yuanshan thought so in his heart.
Hearing Zhao Yu's explanation, Gao Lishi reluctantly settled down, and had the courage to put his eyes in front of the clairvoyant mirror again to look into the distance.
This time, he was prepared, and finally saw clearly that the scenery in the distance was nothing else, but the imperial city palace wall and the surrounding scene.
With a high level of military literacy, he immediately realized that if this so-called clairvoyant mirror was used in the army, it would give the Chu army a great advantage in intelligence reconnaissance.
"Your Majesty, if this clairvoyant mirror is known by the generals, I am afraid that the door of the Ministry of Industry will be broken."
was immediately startled, and hurriedly said:
"Your Majesty, this item is valuable, especially in the army. Don't let the country know how it was made! ”
Gao Lishi has such an awareness, and it is not in vain that he has painstakingly cultivated him.
Zhao Yu bowed his head slightly and looked at Du Yunshan.
"As Colliers said, this thing is valuable, and the relevant craftsmen must be in the hands of the imperial court."
Du Yuanshan hurriedly arched his hand and said:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister has repeatedly told me that these craftsmen are also my Dachu people, and they know the importance of it, and they will never leak out the manufacturing method."
"Du Qing handled it very well." Zhao Yu praised him, and then asked, "However, this clairvoyant mirror may be mass-produced?" ”
Hearing Zhao Yu's question, Du Yuanshan showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said:
"Your Majesty, the lens barrel is easy, but the lens is quite troublesome to handle, first, it is not easy to find the right lens, and secondly, it takes time to polish it into a finished product, and it is easy for the craftsman to lose his efforts if he is not careful."
He originally thought that when he presented the finished product to His Majesty, he would make this clairvoyant mirror mass-produced, but he didn't expect to fall short and be stumped in the selection of lenses.
"Take your time and don't rush too much. For the time being, let's build a batch for emergency use. Du Qing urged the glass workshops under the Ministry of Industry to improve the production process. After Zhao Yu comforted him, he said, "However, there are still many things that need to be improved." ”
"Please show me to your majesty."
understood that the young man in front of him could not be regarded as common sense, so Du Yunshan was extremely respectful in his attitude.
Du Qing also knew that after this clairvoyant mirror was manufactured, it was mostly used in the army. Therefore, I have some requirements for the barrel of this clairvoyant mirror, first of all, it can cope with most weather, especially rain and snow; The second is that targets at different distances can be observed, and their distances can be accurately marked, so that scouts can see them at a glance; In the end, it is only a monocular sample now, and it would be great if the Ministry of Industry could make a binocular clairvoyant in the future. ”
Du Yunshan's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Zhao Yu.
He didn't expect that His Majesty would be able to make so many requests just by using the clairvoyant mirror for the first time.
He was only faintly aware of the first one, and felt that the bamboo lens tube was really a little out of his hands, and he didn't expect the last two at all.
"Your Majesty's will!"
Seeing that Du Yunshan simply agreed, Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction.
This big disciple of the Mo family seems to be a down-to-earth and practical person.
"Although this thing was proposed by me, Du Qing made the physical object so quickly, which shows that it took a lot of thought. Gao Lishi, take out a cake of the dragon and phoenix group tea and reward it to Du Qing! As for the craftsmen involved in the manufacture of this thing, I will also let the Ministry of Industry reward them one by one. ”
As a tribute tea, the output of Longfeng Tuan Tea is already scarce, and the flow out of the palace is even rarer, and it is difficult to find a cake on the black market.
As far as he knows, since His Majesty ascended the throne, only Du Zhudu, who was still in the army, was rewarded with two cakes of dragon and phoenix group tea by His Majesty.
It can be seen that His Majesty attaches great importance to himself and the Mo family.
"Minister, thank you for your majesty's reward!"
Du Yunshan said as he got up from the round stool and thanked Junen.
"Du Qing, let's get even." After Zhao Yu walked to the case, he took out a stack of papers from the drawer and motioned for Gao Lishi to hand them over to Du Yunshan.
"I need the Ministry of Industry to do three things, which are very important, and you will personally lead people to take care of them."
Without waiting for Du Yunshan to speak, Zhao Yu said: "Some of these papers are the drawings of the Jiaowu Hall that I said at the court meeting yesterday. The Ministry of Industry sent craftsmen to build the Jiaowu Hall for me to build before next year's imperial examination according to the drawings, and I could not cut corners at all. The other ones record the approximate distribution of various mineral deposits, Du Qing, you send trustworthy people to explore on the spot to see if there is any gain. If so, give it back to me as soon as possible. ”
Looking at the mineral deposits marked on the map, Du Yunshan was slightly shocked.
As a result, these deposits are extremely valuable gold, copper and iron ores.
Rolling up the architectural drawings and the map marked with the mineral deposits into a cylinder and stuffing them into the sleeve tube, Du Yunshan replied solemnly: "The minister understands! What His Majesty ordered, the minister personally watched, so as not to make mistakes. ”
The two tasks assigned to him by His Majesty are extraordinary, and you can only rest assured if you personally stare at them.
"Du Qing's heart, I can trust it. Neither of these things can be done overnight, just take your time. ”
This sentence was said to Du Yunshan, but also to Zhao Yu himself.
Because Zhao Yu originally wanted to hand over the engraving printing technology to the other party along with the improvement of papermaking technology, but after thinking about it, he finally decided to take it step by step.
Sometimes, if you take too many steps, it's easy to pull the egg.
These two technologies are the most powerful weapons for him to break the knowledge monopoly of the gate valve forces in the Chu State, and he must not let those gate valve families notice the clues before they are launched.
However, before Du Yunshan left, Zhao Yu confessed to him and asked him to use the Mo family's connections to find the traces of the farmer's disciples.
Agriculture is the basic industry of the country, and in this world, it is even more so. This high-martial world is still a feudal world based on agriculture.
Therefore, farmers with rich practical experience and theories in agriculture have entered Zhao Yu's field of vision.
With the help of the power of farmers, increasing the grain output of Chu and enhancing the national strength of Chu is an effective idea for Zhao Yu.
There is the example of the grandfather who fed countless Chinese in his previous life, and Zhao Yu has full confidence in the farmers of this world.
He doesn't expect to increase production and income by more than 1,000 catties in one acre of land, as long as he can increase the output of more than 100 catties, he can wake up with a smile when he sleeps.
As soon as Du Yunshan left on the front foot, an attendant came to report on the back foot, saying that Zhao Qi was asking to see him outside the palace.
Sect Order?
This is a rarity!
When Renzong was in power, these royal clansmen were people with their tails between their legs, and the patriarch of the royal family did not have the slightest influence in the court. It wasn't until they completely grasped the power of the DPRK and China that they were much more relaxed.
Zhao Yu looked out the window, it was already sunset.
At this time, when you come to find yourself, I'm afraid you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, right?
Although Zhao Yu thought so in his heart, he said in his mouth: "Lux, please invite Uncle Wang into the palace." ”
"Old minister, meet Your Majesty."
Seeing that Zhao Yu was about to salute himself after entering the palace, Zhao Yu hurriedly asked Gao Lishi to hold him up, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Wang is exempt. I am busy with government affairs, but I haven't seen Uncle Wang for a while, I wonder if Uncle Wang's body is still strong these days? ”
Zhao Yu bowed to Zhao Yu, and sat down on the stool with the support of Gao Lishi.
"Your Majesty Xie is concerned. Thanks to His Majesty's blessing, it seems that the old minister's body can hold on for a few more years and go to see the ancestors and ancestors. ”
Zhao Yu smiled:
Uncle Wang laughed. Looking at Uncle Wang's complexion, he will definitely be able to live a long life, and maybe he can see the scene when my Great Chu dominates the world. ”
"Then the old minister borrowed His Majesty's auspicious words and tried to live until the day His Majesty said. When the time comes, even if you go to see your ancestors and ancestors, you will have face. ”
Zhao Qi said that, and the two immediately laughed.
After gossiping for a while, Zhao Qi asked tentatively:
"The old minister heard that His Majesty said yesterday morning that he would issue an edict to seek talents and recruit talents from all over the world?"
Zhao Yu nodded slightly and said, "I have this intention. ”
Seeing that Zhao Yu was sure, Zhao Yu hesitated slightly, and said tentatively: "Your Majesty, the old minister is cheeky, recommend a talent to Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty means?" ”
"Oh?"
Zhao Yu glanced at Zhao Yu, who was slightly nervous, and said with a hearty smile:
"Uncle Wang just said yes. If I want to sweep the world and sweep all the countries, I need to collect the world's talents for my own use. If the person recommended by Uncle Wang is really talented, then I will use it according to the equivalent talent, and will not make the pearl dusty. ”
Zhao Yu saw that Zhao Yu didn't seem to be a fake, so he relaxed slightly, cleared his throat, and said:
"In the past, when His Majesty Zhongzong was in power, Zhao You, the king of Pingnan, was His Majesty's confidant, who fought in the south and the north, and made many military exploits. It was only because he was seriously injured in his early years that he had no children until he died in old age. When the anti-king Huang Jingming was in power, the minister was afraid that this son would be victimized by him, so he secretly sent him out of Shenjing, worshiped under the famous teacher, learned literature and martial arts, and is now an adult, skilled in martial arts, and quite strategic. The minister wants to ask His Majesty to summon this son to the court as an official and restore the title of King of Pingnan. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Qi got up and bowed to the end.
When Zhao Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then muttered:
"The deeds of King Pingnan, I also heard my deceased father mention it when I was a child, and I am one of the few people in my Zhao royal family who can lead the army. But I didn't expect that King Pingnan still had children alive? Fortunately, I will summon him to the court as an official and restore him to the throne. ”
On the side of the royal family, it is also a big force, and it is worth spending some money to win over.
Seeing Zhao Yu nodding and agreeing, Zhao Yu was overjoyed and said:
"The old minister is Zhao Yun, the son of the king of Pingnan, thank Your Majesty Longen!"
At the same time, in front of Zhao Yu's eyes, a row of small characters flashed in Lishu.
[Sect Commander Zhao Qi, after recommending King Pingnan to you: Zhao Yun, do you accept it? ] 】
Zhao Yun, the word Zilong, Changshan Zhendingren, one of the five tigers of Shu Han. His face is majestic and brave. He has participated in the Battle of Bowangpo, the Battle of Changbanpo, and the Battle of Jiangnan Pingding, and has commanded the Battle of Irikawa, the Battle of Hanshui, and the Battle of Keiya alone, all of which have won many miraculous achievements. After his death, he was posthumously called "Shun Pinghou", and his image of "always victorious general" was widely spread.
Martial Arts 97, Domination 91, Military Strategy 82, Political Strategy 78, Wisdom 77, Literature 44, Charisma 91, Morality 88, Ambition 37, Loyalty 100, Intimacy 900, Influence 300, Age 24, Origin: Imperial Family, Personality: Steady.

Seeing Zhao Yun's attribute introduction, Zhao Yu was taken aback.
Is it really Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, who "the world's spearmen are lucky to have eight buckets, Zhao Zilong has one stone to himself, and the rest owe two buckets"?
Needless to say, I will definitely accept it!
At this moment, Zhao Yu really wanted to run in front of Zhang Xiu and shout to him:
Youwei, your little junior brother is here!
