If you want to use this gold and silver, you have to find a way to remove the imprint first.

She rubbed her chin, this is a bit difficult to do.

In this era, currency is also not allowed to be minted privately, the mold is in the hands of the official, and ordinary people can't even see it.

Yue Mingzhu is not afraid of this, as long as she does a good job of confidentiality, everything will not be a problem.

The place where this work was done is also ready-made, and the cave where the treasures of the previous dynasty were found was quite secret, otherwise it would have not been discovered for so many years.

The problem is that she doesn't have a mold, and in the absence of drawings, it is difficult to imitate the exact same.

Another issue is smelting technology.

Recasting gold and silver requires a furnace, and it is a furnace with a particularly high temperature, which is difficult to melt in an ordinary furnace.

In her previous life, the steel smelting technology had matured, and the melting point of steel was much higher than that of gold and silver, but she really didn't know much about this aspect, so she could only study and experiment a lot.

But one thing is certain, ordinary earthen stoves are absolutely not allowed, and the fuel cannot be wood, but coal.

Coal is also under the control of the government, and she must need a lot of coal to recast gold and silver, but if she suddenly buys a large amount of coal, it will inevitably attract the attention of the government.

Her head hurts a little, it's really a step at a time!

It's not that she didn't think about grinding off the mark on the bottom of the gold and silver directly, which would save time and effort.

However, it will be very risky to do so, for two main reasons, one is that there will be traces left when the mark is rubbed off, and if the bottom is not smooth, people with a heart will inevitably guess whether it has been worn off something, which is tantamount to three hundred taels of silver here; Second, if there are any marks that she hasn't found, it will be dangerous at that time, so it is safest to melt down and reforge them.

If you really can't do it, you can only ask Song Wan for help, the two of them have a common secret, if Song Wan can help her, she shouldn't refuse.

But she didn't want to, and before she could go to the other party, the other party came to her first.

In the evening, Xiao Jingyu called Yue Mingzhu out.

The two of them came to a wasteland surrounded by no people, surrounded by no shelter, and not suitable for Tibetans, just a good place to tell secrets.

"Mingzhu, I'm leaving." Xiao Jingyu spoke in a deep voice, with loneliness in his tone.

Yue Mingzhu didn't know what to say, and when she heard that the other party was leaving, she felt like a big stone was blocked, and she was sullen.

So, she bowed her head and did not speak.

Without waiting for Yue Mingzhu's response, Xiao Jingyu continued: "Mingzhu, now the two of us are friends of life and death, and there should be no secrets between friends of life and death, you are so smart, you must have guessed that my identity was fake early on." ”

Moon Pearl nodded slightly, indicating that she had guessed.

I said in my heart, sure enough, is this to be confessed?

"My surname is Xiao, Xiao Jingyu, Xiao is the emperor's surname, so it was inconvenient for me to show my real identity before, I hope Mingzhu will forgive me. I am the fourth prince of the saint today, I have been given the title of King Huai, my mother is Rong Guifei, my family is Dingbei Houfu, and Song Ci who came with me was born in Dingbei Houfu and is my cousin. ”

Yue Mingzhu was shocked when she heard this, she had guessed earlier that this person was a nobleman, otherwise it would be impossible to use a pseudonym, and there were so many skilled secret guards around her, but she didn't expect that this person would be the prince if she wanted to break her head, and she was rumored to be the most favored His Royal Highness King Huai, she was on her thighs? And it's people sitting at home, and their thighs come from the sky!

didn't want to interrupt Xiao Jingyu, so he motioned with his eyes to continue.

"Today, I received an urgent call from my father, ordering me to return to Beijing immediately, and I will lead the army to the expedition in the near future."

Yue Mingzhu's expression was originally quite calm, but now there was a crack, and she immediately asked, "You want to lead the troops to the battle?" Where to? Do you have any previous experience leading troops? ”

Xiao Jingyu shook his head and said that he had no experience in leading troops to fight, "It's to go to Pingling Pass, South Vietnam is coming, the imperial court needs a prince to stabilize the army's heart, and my father decided to let me go." ”

Yue Mingzhu knew that Pingling Pass was located in the southernmost part of Daqian, and it was the junction zone with South Vietnam.

Why did he send him, Xiao Jingyu didn't explain it to Yue Mingzhu, but he knew it very well.

Before the father sent someone to summon the urgent summons, the letter from the Dingbei Marquis Mansion was delivered first.

It has been several years since the great drought and the state treasury is not abundant, internal worries have not been settled, and external troubles have arisen again.

South Vietnam is located in the south, far less than the great Qian's geographical location, the southern snakes, insects, rats and ants, disasters are frequent, the population is not abundant, before that, the national strength is far inferior to the great Qian, since they dare not come to attack, the two countries have maintained a superficial peace for many years, mutual non-aggression.

Now that the country's strength is declining due to drought, South Vietnam has taken the opportunity to commit it, just to take a bite of fat.

Previously, Pingling Pass had been guarded by the Zhennan Wangfu for generations, and each generation of Zhennan Kings was brave and good at fighting and loyal to the imperial court.

The king of Zhennan is the king of Zhennan who was divided into different surnames on the founding of the country, the first king of Zhennan was the founding general, and Emperor Taizu was a brother with a different surname, after the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu gave him the title of King of Zhennan, the same prince, hereditary replacement, as long as he did not commit the crime of rebellion, he could not be deprived of the title, which can be said to be a veritable iron hat king.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Zhennan Wangfu did not live up to the expectations of Emperor Taizu, not only every Zhennan King is brave and good at fighting, his descendants are also able to fight well, to this day, I don't know how many descendants died on the battlefield, horse leather shroud, it can be said that the glory of Zhennan Wangfu today is all piled up by the lives of his descendants, and it is the first loyal and brave family of Daqian.

Originally, Pingling Pass was guarded by the king of Zhennan is enough, but this generation of the king of Zhennan is very old, has passed the year of the sixtieth year, over the years after large and small battles, the old wounds on the body have not healed, and new injuries have been added, don't look at the spirit is still strong, but the body has long been dilapidated, there are many old diseases, a few days ago suddenly attacked, suddenly fell, has been in a coma for several days, is the military doctor to rescue, but only to hang a life.

At the critical juncture of the South Vietnamese attack, the king of the south of Dinghai Shenzhen fell again, and the military spirit was greatly shaken, at this time, it was necessary for the imperial court to send a person with a very high status to stabilize the army's morale, boost the morale of the three armies, and deter the enemy at the same time.

Nowadays, the only general who can be compared with the king of Zhennan is his maternal ancestor Dingbeihou, but his maternal ancestor still needs to guard Yannan Pass.

South Vietnam will take advantage of the weakness to enter, it is difficult to guarantee that the Northern Qi will not, if the two countries attack, the big dry is in danger, so the grandfather will never be able to go to Pingling Pass.

Otherwise, it is the Holy Emperor's personal expedition, but until the moment of life and death, the courtiers will never agree, how can the Son of Heaven easily risk his life?

Then it can only be to send a prince to represent the Son of Heaven.

Who will you send? The courtiers quarreled so much about this, and they wanted to break their heads in the court.

It stands to reason that this is a good opportunity to snatch credit, and if you can make a meritorious achievement, then you can increase the bargaining chips for the future competition for the position of prince.
