"Your Majesty, this clairvoyant mirror is indeed magical, if it is used on the battlefield, it will definitely be able to discover the enemy's whereabouts in advance, and it is really a reconnaissance weapon!"

As a military general, Wang Ben's first reaction was that this thing was very military value.

Qin Shi Huang nodded and said: "What the Marquis of Tongwu said is good, but this matter still has to be asked to the young master, such a magical thing is probably another immortal artifact, and the production must be time-consuming and laborious!" ”

"Your Majesty, although this thing is magical, but it is not a fairy means, but the minister according to the ink scripture to figure out the development, need to use pure crystal gems, the production is indeed time-consuming and laborious, but now the glass factory outside the city has been able to produce in batches, the minister has arranged for Tang Ting to step up the production, and wait until next year's expedition to the Western Regions can give the main generals and service equipment of the military camp, at the same time, the minister has also been letting the craftsman make products that look farther, but the farther you look, the larger and longer the tube will be, not easy to carry, And the difficulty of production has also increased several times or even dozens of times," Chen Xu explained with a smile next to him......

"It's okay, when I return to Xianyang on my cruise, let Shaofu allocate money to the glass factory, so that they can develop a clairvoyant mirror that can see farther as soon as possible, and at the same time, this kind of clairvoyant mirror that can see more than ten miles will also be manufactured in large quantities, and it will inevitably be of great use in the future, with such an observation weapon, the conquest of the Western Regions will inevitably get ......twice the result with half the effort."

Qin Shi Huang shook his head with emotion: "I didn't expect that Mozi's theory could inspire Aiqing to develop such a magical item, it seems that I still underestimated the disciples of the Mo family before!" ”

"What Your Majesty said before is that the ministers said before that the sages and sons were all people of great wisdom, and although the Mohist theory of governing the country was biased, many of the studies were deeply scientific concepts, which were similar to many of the theories that the ministers learned in the Book of Heaven. The theory of a hundred schools of thought is like a large orchard, we are in it, we only need to carefully distinguish and taste, we can always get a variety of different deliciousness, and we can also use cuttings and grafting to improve and develop it like the orchard in the fiefdom, and we will inevitably get a fruitful harvest in the future! Chen Xu smiled and arched his hand.

"Aiqing is reasonable, I just didn't like the Mo family's governing theories and rules before, but I didn't expect the Mo family's theory to secretly combine immortal dao spells, and after I go back this time, I will issue an edict to sort out and review the books of the hundred sages as soon as possible and publish them and spread them to the world!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Chen Xu couldn't help but pat himself happily.

Now after more than a year of development, the book has reached hundreds of poems and books compiled by hundreds of disciples, but because of the conflict of ideas, many books have been sorted out and have been placed in the warehouse of the Academy of Letters, Chen Xu did not want to publish them rashly without the permission of the emperor, one is the lack of funds, the second is afraid of causing the emperor's dissatisfaction, and the third is also worried about causing more violent conflicts between the disciples of the Legalists led by Zhusheng and Li Si, otherwise it's not easy to clean up if it's big.

But today, taking the opportunity of the telescope to explain the Book of Ink, Qin Shi Huang really relented.

This is almost a definite indication that the emperor no longer has any intention of burning books.

After imperceptibly several years, Chen Xu finally achieved his goal.

It is very important to preserve the theories and classics of the Hundred Schools of Thought for the inheritance of China, and the freedom of academic thought will inevitably be passed on, so that China will not repeat the old path of Confucian governance.

Coming down from Mount Tai, resting overnight in Xingyuan, early the next morning, Chen Xu went to the tent of the first emperor to meet and resign.

"Without Aiqing's company, I always feel a little uneasy when I go to the East China Sea!"

Although he didn't know why Chen Xu suddenly left the East China Sea, Qin Shi Huang didn't dare to ask, after all, this was a heavenly opportunity, but Qin Shi Huang was still a little flustered by Chen Xu in his heart.

"Your Majesty is worry-free, everything will be safe and sound, the minister has told His Majesty before, there is no Shenshan Immortal Island overseas, and there is no immortal immortal grass, then Hou Sheng and others are just deceiving Your Majesty's ears, but Your Majesty has a three-year appointment with Hou Sheng Lu Sheng and other Fang Shi after all, you can see how Hou Sheng and others reply to Your Majesty, but the minister also has a secret book for Your Majesty before leaving......"

Chen Xu took out a silk bag from his pocket, and respectfully handed it to Qin Shi Huang with both hands.

"Your Majesty, if you go to the East China Sea, if Hou Sheng Lu Sheng and others present an overseas book to Your Majesty, Your Majesty can open the minister's bag to watch the secret book after reading it, and you will know that the minister has not deceived Your Majesty, but if Hou Sheng Lu Sheng and others have not offered a book, then you must not open it, otherwise once the heavenly machine is leaked, it may bring great disaster to Your Majesty!"

Qin Shi Huang held the bag and hesitated for a long time before nodding, "I will definitely remember Aiqing's reminder!" ”

"That's good, the minister will wait for His Majesty's return in Xianyang when he leaves today!" Chen Xu bowed and retired.

And the officials accompanying him were all confused as Chen Xu took twenty teenagers to leave in a carriage escorted by a group of guards, but looking at the emperor's expression, no one dared to come forward to ask, including Meng Yi, who opened his mouth a few times but couldn't help but not speak.

Soon after Chen Xu left, the emperor's procession also set out, and under the escort of thousands of forbidden troops, hundreds of carriages set out on the parade road again, heading east along the newly built Oriental Road.

……

"Master Hou, why do you want to go separately from the emperor!"

Chen Xu's carriage and horse stopped next to the post road ten miles away from Dongfang Road, and at this time he was standing on a mountain beam holding a telescope to look at the parade in the distance, and the leader of the guards standing next to him felt inexplicable.

"Don't ask too much about this matter, don't discuss it privately, and don't speculate!" Chen Xu put down his glasses and said lightly.

"Yes, Master Hou, my subordinates don't dare!" A wave of sweat broke out on the forehead of the leader of the guards.

"Let's go! Go to Pei County! Chen Xu put the binoculars away and inserted them back into his leather case, and the leader of the guards hurriedly ordered a group of guards to prepare the carriage and horses, and then a group of people had to bump along the road overgrown with grass and thorns all the way to the southwest, almost contrary to the paradeing emperor.

Pei County, originally belonged to the Chu State, after Qin destroyed Chu, Pei County belonged to Surabaya County.

When he came to Puyang, Chen Xu planned to leave the parade team directly to go to Pei County, but because he had never climbed Mount Tai, he decided to travel for a few days first, so after climbing Mount Tai, Chen Xu left.

The reason why he had to leave early was because Hou Sheng asked Zheng Boqiao to harm him with the five poisons to soothe the soul, and the fact that the emperor was accompanied by the Marquis of Qinghe in the southeast must have been known to the whole world, Chen Xu believed that once he followed, Hou Sheng would be afraid and would not dare to show up, and Qin Shi Huang would definitely not see Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng, the liars of the immortal family, so he could only run in vain, so he used the tried and tested excuse that the heavenly machine could not be revealed to leave the parade team in advance.

And the news of his departure will inevitably soon be spread by the local reporters and officials in Qilu who climbed Mount Tai with the emperor, and when the emperor arrives in Langya, Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng will dare to jump out.

In fact, after traveling all the way, Chen Xu is a little tired of this kind of stop-and-go tourism, mainly because there are too many people and too complicated, there are officials and scholars everywhere to greet them, and there are socials everywhere, in fact, they can't play well or eat well.

Leaving early was not because he didn't go to the East China Sea, but because he wanted to wait for the First Emperor to see Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng, and then secretly follow him to Langya to see why Hou Sheng, who couldn't hit the edge, wanted to harm him, if he could...... Well, it's better to shoot this bastard with a random gun.

If it weren't for this bastard bewitching Zheng Boqiao, Shui Qingrou would definitely not leave him.

And when he thought of the gentle water, a beautiful shadow suddenly emerged from his heart, the pretty figure in a black dress, the face like a beautiful orchid, the cry of pear blossoms with rain, and the words of bowing to the ground, all of which made him haunted by dreams and could not forget.

In addition, there is another reason that Ying Shiyan was pregnant in the autumn last year, and now it is the end of April, according to the time speculation, the child will be born in April and May, and maybe even has been born, so he needs to rush back as soon as possible to see his first child after crossing to Daqin, otherwise follow the emperor to parade like this for at least half a year, maybe a year, and it is estimated that the child will play soy sauce when he goes back.

I didn't have a girlfriend before, but I didn't expect that after crossing over, not only did she have a group of wives and concubines, but she also became the right-hand man of Emperor Daqin, with two marquis halos, and even married a princess......

Once he has a child, he can be regarded as truly rooted in Daqin, and the rise and fall of the family's glory and disgrace in the future will make him worry and worry.

"I don't know if it's a son or a daughter?"

Chen Xu sat on the bumpy carriage and staggered his thoughts, and then involuntarily remembered that the water was soft, and his mood suddenly became extremely depressed.

From Mount Tai to Pei County, the straight-line distance is only more than 300 miles, although the road is tortuous and bumpy along the way, but after all, it is the prosperous area of the Central Plains, so the road is quite smooth, all the way through the large and small towns and farmlands full of crops, the bazaars in the township also look lively, the caravans on the road are also endless, the pedestrians seen are dressed and their faces have also changed greatly, and the situation he saw when he took Yingbu and Yu Wuya to Xiapi to look for Zhang Liang three years ago is not the same, Many of the villages and towns along the way are building new houses, and it can be seen that the peasants' lives have improved significantly in the past two years.

In order to disguise his identity, Chen Xu's team did not hang the banner of the Qinghe Marquis's Mansion, and the carriage he rode in was not a luxury four-wheel drive dedicated to the Qinghe Marquis in Xianyang, but an ordinary four-wheeled carriage with two bridles, and several neatly bundled four-wheeled carriages loaded with luggage for eating, drinking, and washing on the road, which looked like an ordinary caravan, but even so, this team composed of a group of burly guards wearing leather armor and carrying bows and crossbows and swords and twenty uniformly dressed teenagers still attracted people's attention, and they rested and ate everywhere, which always attracts countless observational eyes and voices of discussion.

But Chen Xu didn't care, sometimes in the gap between eating and resting in the foot house, he would talk to the locals or passing caravans, and ask about the various changes that have taken place in the people in the past two years, especially the feelings of merchants and civilians after the reform of commercial law.

And the results also made Chen Xu very satisfied.

From the news I heard, especially after the implementation of the new commercial law in January, the situation in various places has changed greatly, and both merchants and commoners have expressed their unparalleled gratitude to the Marquis of Qinghe, and even many merchants are extremely excited when they talk about the Marquis of Qinghe, and their words are extremely reverent.
