Tang's dining table

Chapter 483 New uses of gunpowder

Yunchu didn't want to work during the Chinese New Year. He liked Datang very much and enjoyed everything he had in Datang.

In the past, working during the Chinese New Year was required by the superiors. Because the superiors did not want to work during the Chinese New Year, they assigned matters that should have been their responsibility at this stage to the subordinates.

Therefore, for a subdistrict office director, he has the greatest power only when he is on duty during holidays. He can even coordinate duty personnel from public security, fire protection, urban management and other departments to deal with emergencies.

In the first few years of the Tang Dynasty, Yun Chu never spent a quiet and peaceful New Year with his family. Because Yu Xiurong always maintained the respectful and understanding attitude unique to ancient women, Yun Chu felt that working during the New Year was a way to make progress. Performance.

It's different now. He has become a marquis. His status is high enough and his power is great enough. He can learn from his former superiors and assign the work he should do to his subordinates, and also give them a chance to show their progressive spirit.

This year’s Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Jinchangfang is held early every year. It starts on the day before New Year’s Eve and is planned to last until the 20th of the first lunar month.

This year’s extra-long Shangyuan Festival celebration has the most rich content and the largest number of participants in the past years.

Judging from the program list sent by Master Wan and Liu Yi, this year's garden activity has become a nationwide garden activity, and because there are Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, Tubo, Khotan, and Turtle The stage in Jinchangfang can even be called an international stage due to local folk performances from Shule, Kang, Shi and other places.

As a native of the Tang Dynasty, Yun Chu decided to take his family to enjoy the fun of visiting the park this year.

Just when Yunchu happily arranged all the work in his hands, he was preparing to celebrate the New Year with his family.

Li Zhi thought so too.

Then, the furious Yunchu had to put on his heavy armor on New Year's Eve, fully armed and ride a bay-red horse to go to work in Tai Chi Palace.

Li Ji's carriage was blown to pieces with a huge roar! The place of the accident was still the Imperial City.

Li Ji usually doesn't go out now when he has nothing to do. However, because he carries the title of Kaifu Yitong Third Division, on New Year's Eve, he still has to reluctantly attend the internal commendation meeting of the Ministry of War, Ministry of Works, General and other departments.

The list has all been drawn up, and all it takes is Li Ji, the person with the highest status, to read it and say a few words of encouragement, and then everyone can share the meal and go home happily to celebrate the New Year.

Li Ji's carriage was a reward from the emperor. It was the same carriage that the emperor rode with him when he returned to the court last time. After the ceremony, the emperor rewarded Li Ji with this carriage that could only be used by the emperor. .

It has become the most valuable good thing for Li Ji's family. At the same time, it has also become the most valuable spiritual reward for the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, which Li Ji nominally manages.

The person who has made the greatest contribution among these three departments this year is undoubtedly Cui Xie, a member of the Ministry of Industry. In the past two years, this person has cooperated with the Du Water Supervision Department, which is in charge of shipping and water conservancy. Hua and Wei sent 30,000 people from five states to dredge the Bian Canal.

It solves the big problem of blocking the weir mouth, preventing the Yellow River water from flowing into the channel, and interrupting water transportation.

The canal can continue to play its role. "There are countless fields in its four fields, and the fat is doubled... boiling the sea into salt, mining the mountains to cast money." It is the important task of the national tax to re-ripen the rice and the township tribute eight silkworms to Beijing.

Such a great contribution must be greatly appreciated, so Li Ji's carriage became a gift to send Cui Xie, a member of the Ministry of Industry, home.

Then, with Cui Xie weeping with gratitude and everyone envious and envious, the driver of the car was blown into pieces with a roar just a hundred steps away. The groom was gutted and died on the spot. Because Wairo, a member of the Ministry of Industry, was at the center of the explosion, he was blown to pieces and couldn't even piece together a complete body...

The emperor's order to Yun Chu was to enter the palace wearing armor. There is no doubt that Yun Chu was required to enter the palace fully armed.

Therefore, when Yun Chu entered the imperial city with Ma Shan, he was called to the Yamen of Zuo Lingjun Guard by Li Ji's people who were guarding the gate of the imperial city.

Although Li Ji escaped from death this time, Li Ji had escaped from death many times in his life, so he was still calm this time and did not take the fact that he was almost killed seriously.

"Is it difficult to delay the explosion of gunpowder?" Li Ji sat at the top and asked directly when he saw Yun Chu coming in.

Yunchu didn't waste any time. When he saw several tubes of gunpowder on Li Ji's table, he took one of the tubes and asked the servant for a stick of incense. Then he connected the incense with the gunpowder twister and finally lit the incense. Incense, put the gunpowder on an empty table and said: "It will explode after one stick of incense."

Everyone's expressions changed drastically as they looked at Shi Xiang, who was smoking. Li Ji personally came over, took a look, and then said to Yun Chu, "There should be a more precise way."

Yun Chu nodded and said: "If you find a good master craftsman, you can control the time within the breath."

Li Ji snuffed out the fragrance with his hand, then turned around and said to the generals present: "Warriors should ride horses from now on, and avoid going to messy places."

Then, he waved his hand, indicating that Yun Chu could go to Tai Chi Palace.

Yun Chu knew that the reason why Li Ji arrested him to get this simple delay device that anyone could think of was just to clear Yun Chu's suspicion.

Even though Yun Chu had not been very close to the generals recently, Li Ji still believed that Yun Chu would not kill him.

When entering the Tai Chi Palace, Yun Chu found that the director of the Palace Gate Bureau, Lao Huang, was guarding the gate. Although it was ridiculous for him to be bloated and covered with armor, Yun Chu couldn't help but smile when he saw that he looked like he was facing a formidable enemy at the gate of the palace. come out.

"After the explosion, it was Duke Ying who suggested to His Majesty that you, Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, Guo Daifeng and other twelve generals from the army should be allowed to enter the forbidden area to protect His Majesty."

Although it was only a short sentence, it contained a lot of content. I have to say that Li Ji did a much better job than young people like Yun Chu in terms of flattering and clearing his suspicions.

What does it mean that twelve powerful generals are allowed to enter the inner palace? This shows that the emperor still has great trust in Li Ji.

Although the twelve fierce generals were still hacked to death by knives when they encountered the 12,000 imperial troops inside the palace, this trust was enough for Li Ji, and he could even spy on the emperor from this matter. some little ideas.

Yun Chu and Guo Daifeng were assigned to the East Palace to protect the crown prince Li Hong.

Guo Daifeng's body was still very weak. As the two of them were guided by the waiter on their way to the East Palace, Guo Daifeng remained silent. However, the war horse under his crotch moved back a little, half a horse behind the bay red horse. body.

Everyone is a marquis, and Guo Daifeng usually cares about this the most. Now, he has been able to give in quietly, which is rare.

When the two arrived at the East Palace and were waiting for the prince to receive him, Guo Daifeng suddenly said: "Although to this day, Guo still doesn't know why Marquis Yun used me to block his arrows, Guo felt the kindness from Marquis Yun.

Therefore, not only did I have no grudges in my heart, but I was also grateful. I must make this matter clear to Marquis Yun. "

Yun Chu said casually: "Your strengths are not in government affairs, why don't you just imitate Yanmen County Duke and become a pure martial artist."

Guo Daifeng said: "Since the invention of gunpowder, the role of a martial artist has been minimal. After twenty years of hard training, it is no more powerful than a bomb."

"A bomb is just a weapon. Since you already know the power of gunpowder, why don't you study the use of gunpowder carefully?

When you truly master the use of gunpowder, you no longer need to think that you can't defeat Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, or me. After all, the three of us are also made of flesh and blood. Amidst the roar of gunpowder, we will not be better than you. Where to go.

To be honest, the purpose of gunpowder is to end powerful generals. "

While the two were talking, Li Hong walked out. He was very happy when he heard that Yun Chu was coming, but suddenly found that Guo Daifeng was also there. Li Hong immediately behaved himself.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Marquis Yun, Marquis Guo are exempt from the courtesy. With you two by my side, I will be alone and worry-free."

Although Li Hong is still young, he already looks like a prince. This meeting is the first time since Yun Chu came back from Liaodong.

Yun Chu was very pleased that Li Hong refused to go to the Yun family again after he came back.

Since he killed a lot of people after listening to Naha's advice, he stayed in the East Palace to study hard, and then served the cabbage, cabbage and onions in the East Palace.

It is because of the existence of these things that although Li Hong has not appeared in front of people for a long time, people have great expectations for him, the next generation prince of the Tang Dynasty, through cabbage, cabbage and onions.

Among the two princes and tutors, both Li Yifu and Shangguan Yi were full of praise for the prince Li Hong. What they said most was not the prince's intelligence, but the prince's willingness to learn and do things down-to-earth.

It is not a good thing to easily place the word "wisdom" on a young child. This is not the first time in the Tang Dynasty and in history books that early wisdom will lead to harm.

Li Hong did not send Yunchu and Guo Daifeng to guard the gate, but instead prepared wine and food to invite the two marquis to a banquet.

The so-called court banquet is a scene where people talk about knowledge while drinking and eating.

Prince Li Hong has always been known for his humility in pursuing studies. Now, he met two powerful generals who came from the Liaodong battlefield. How could he let this opportunity pass?

This was a very formal occasion, and there were secretaries sitting aside to record the banquet.

At this court banquet, Li Hong only occasionally asked questions, but the main person who answered was Guo Daifeng. The Liaodong battlefield left too many unforgettable memories for Guo Daifeng, so unknowingly, Not only was he excited about the story, but also because of His Highness the Crown Prince's inadvertent praise, he forgot that the wine His Highness the Crown Prince provided today was - anti-toxic medicine.
