886 Li Ying's Dark Chess
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
As the saying goes, many people are easy to do, Sun Dayan and Jin Mingyu did their best, and experimented with many ideas that were only conceived in their minds or on paper before, and for a while, the sound of explosions on the construction site continued, and every time it was blasted, the headache of the Black Mountain Col was cut down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, when the sun was setting and the remnants of the sun were like blood, the Black Mountain Col, which had once stopped in front of everyone, had disappeared, leaving a place of wreckage.
"Report to the general, my subordinates are fortunate to live up to their mission, and the Black Mountain Pass has been razed to the ground, please check it out to the general." Jin Mingyu saluted Zheng Peng and said respectfully.
After blasting for most of the day, Jin Mingyu can be said to be too addicted.
The satisfaction of seeing a towering mountain razed to the ground under one's own hands is not too good.
Zheng Peng looked at Jin Mingyu, and then at Sun Dayan with a sense of satisfaction on the side, nodded and said: "Good job, pack up your things, go back and have a good rest, sort out the information, I will take a moment to have a summary meeting, and then celebrate well, it can be regarded as a celebration for you." ”
Both of them did a good job, and Zheng Peng was pleased that during the blasting process, Sun Dayan and Jin Mingyu were able to summarize while working, adjust the plan according to different terrains, and sometimes exchange ideas, competing and learning from each other, so that they became more and more efficient.
"Order!" Jin Mingyu and Sun Dayan said in unison.
Soon, under the protection of the Yulin Army, the two counted the number of people, except for the consumed, all the things they brought had to be counted and taken away one by one.
"Everyone, it's not early, do you want to go back to the palace first?" On the top of the mountain in the distance, Colliers asked cautiously.
From the blasting to the end, Li Longji watched the whole process, and it can be said that he witnessed a hill disappear in his field of vision.
"Let's go back" Li Longji breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with some unfinished words: "This Zheng Peng is really a god, I have seen him build bridges in the water, and now I see him opening mountains and splitting stones, fortunately, it is used by me." ”
If Zheng Peng is a person from an enemy country, the consequences are simply unimaginable.
Gao Lishi complimented: "Everyone is the Son of Heaven favored by God, and Zheng Peng is sent by God to assist everyone, which is everyone's luck and Datang's luck, and everyone's thousand-year foundation is just around the corner." ”
Li Longji just laughed and didn't say anything, only to see Li Longji look at the direction of the Black Mountain Pass just now, with thoughtful eyes in his eyes, and quickly nodded: "It's not too early, go back to the palace." ”
"The old slave obeys."
Zheng Peng didn't know that Li Longji had been watching from a distance, and after the people from the Firearms Department had left, he looked at Fang Bin, who was still flustering, and said, "Team Leader Fang, it's okay." ”
"Young master, it's okay, it's okay." Fang Bin came back to his senses and immediately responded.
After saying that, Fang Bin saluted Zheng Peng with a serious face, and said convincingly: "The young master is really a god and a man, and his subordinates admire him." ”
A mountain that takes at least half a year to be bulldozed, and it is razed to the ground in one day, this method can be called a ghost master's workmanship, Fang Bin finally understood the reason why Zheng Peng refused to change the route, in Zheng Peng's eyes, it was just a small stumb.
Zheng Peng laughed, and said modestly: "It's serious, it's just the right time." ”
Fang Bin sighed: "If I had obtained such a magic weapon earlier, I don't know how many plans that could only stay on paper could be implemented, and many large-scale infrastructure projects could also greatly reduce the cost, but unfortunately..."
After sighing, Fang Bin quickly realized that he was no longer an official of the Ministry of Industry, but a slave who became Zheng Peng's domestic slave, even if he had gunpowder, he couldn't take his turn, so he could only be sad, but Fang Bin quickly cheered up and took the initiative to change the topic: "Young master, I didn't expect that the Black Mountain Pass could really be razed to the ground in one day, and the little one is confident that he can complete the task within the time limit, great, this mountain is gone, and there are a lot of stones that can be used, and he can save a sum of material costs and transportation costs, if he encounters the same situation in the future, Can someone from the Firearms Department still be asked to help? ”
"It should be fine." Zheng Peng said confidently.
He is the number one of the ordnance superintendents, and now he is only mobilizing the firearms department, not the entire ordnance superintendent, and he still has this self-confidence.
There is no right to ask for this, and for Zheng Peng, it is better to resign and not do it.
Fang Bin's eyes lit up, and he quickly responded, "Understood, young master." ”
With this commitment, it will be much simpler to do anything in the future.
At this time, Lao Qi, Jin Changlu, Ah Cai and others also came over and expressed their admiration for Zheng Peng, for them, today brought them more shock than before.
Black Mountain Pass was forcibly razed to the ground by Zheng Peng using gunpowder in one day, and many people in Chang'an knew about such a big movement, not to mention some people with a heart.
In an inconspicuous house in Anyi Fang, the crown prince Li Ying put some green salt in the teapot, and then poured a cup of hot tea on the teacup opposite very elegantly and naturally, and then said with a smile: "Old Yang, please drink tea." ”
The old Yang in Li Ying's mouth is Yang Chongli, who has always advocated the old system, and is Li Ying's most staunch supporter, and Yang Chongli's support and guidance, so that the prince will have so many industries.
Concubine Wu Hui is deeply liked by Li Longji, it can be said that she has three thousand beauties in the harem, what an honor, but Concubine Wu Hui blew the pillow wind and could not help King Shou to ascend the throne, in addition to a group of supporters in the court who guarded the old system, the prince's strong financial resources also made a lot of contributions, and most of the financial resources came from the industries controlled, which were inseparable from Yang Chongli's guidance and support, like the Chunfeng Building in Pingkangfang, which was the result of Yang Chongli's mediation, and it was also the most profitable industry controlled by the prince.
"Let the prince pour tea, Weichen is terrified." Yang Chongli said with some emotion.
It is a great honor to let the prince pour tea and hand over the water in person, and Rao is Yang Chongli was also a little moved.
"Elder Yang has won the award, although this palace is said to be the prince, he is also a disciple of Elder Yang, and the disciple pours tea for Mr. When Li Ying spoke, her face was indifferent.
Yang Chongli nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and quickly said, "The prince is in such a hurry to find the old man, it's for the east of the city." ”
The sound in the east of the city shook the sky, such a big movement, not to mention that the mysterious Firearms Department and the Yulin Army were dispatched, it was difficult not to attract attention, they all said that people are old spirits, ghosts and old spirits, Yang Chongli's strength and body are long gone, and the feeling of powerlessness is becoming more and more obvious, but Yang Chongli's head is becoming more and more bright, and the news is also well-informed, Zheng Peng can receive the news here as soon as there is a movement.
"Yes, it's still Yang Lao who is amazing, and he guessed the idea of this palace at once."
Yang Chongli shook his head and said, "The movement is too big, even if you don't know it, it's hard to know." ”
Li Ying said with an angry face: "This Zheng Peng, he is really lawless, relying on himself to make a little contribution, treating the law of the Tang Dynasty as nothing, as an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, it is conducive to the convenience of his position, public and private use, and he uses the most important strategic material of the Tang Dynasty gunpowder as his road repair purpose, firearms, the most important thing for his father, Zheng Peng dares to openly move out of the forbidden garden and move here." ”
I just want to see the gunpowder, and Zheng Peng's guy has moved the firearms that Datang values the most here, which is simply lawless, and it also makes Li Ying's heart very unbalanced.
Yang Chongli put down the teacup in his hand and said unhurriedly: "Unwise." ”
"I don't know what Elder Yang said?"
Yang Chongli still said in an unhurried tone, and said in a flat tone: "Prince, Zheng Peng has real skills, has made countless meritorious contributions, and has won the emperor's respect, and now it can be said that the saint is thick, according to the old minister, when the bombardment of the Black Mountain Pass, the emperor followed out quietly, and watched the whole process of blasting the Black Mountain Pass, the emperor did not stop it on the spot, nor did he send someone to arrest Zheng Peng, indicating that he recognized this action, that is, to impeach him, I believe it will not have much effect." ”
After a pause, Yang Chongli continued: "Zheng Peng is a person with great ability and small ambitions, especially not keen on officialdom, and is the favorite object of those in power, even if he can't become a friend or use it, he can't be rude to him, and Zheng Peng's holy family is strong, there is no need to offend him for a trivial matter." ”
Zheng Peng's importance to the Tang Dynasty is self-evident, Li Longji protected Zheng Peng tightly under his wing from the beginning, and did not let Zheng Peng get involved in officialdom battles, and it is not an exaggeration to say that as long as Zheng Peng does not rebel, nothing can bring him down, even Yang Chongli can't understand why the prince has to provoke Zheng Peng.
Even if you can't be friends, it's not good to be enemies.
The crown prince had already guessed that Yang Chongli would say this, and when he heard this, a subtle sneer appeared on his lips, and he lowered his voice and said: "Old Yang, there is a gap between this palace and Zheng Peng, this person is not used by this palace, and he will definitely become a stumbling block to this palace in the future, and he can't be allowed to be arrogant." ”
Yang Chongli frowned, and said with some puzzlement: "Please think twice, the old minister thinks that this matter must not be impulsive, so as not to end badly." ”
Li Ying lowered her voice and said: "Old Yang, Zheng Peng is proud of his achievements, the palace has put down the shelf to solve some small misunderstandings in the past, and gave him enough face, but Zheng Peng refused to reconcile, as long as Zheng Peng is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and his father, he is angry, and the palace also admits it, but Zheng Peng has signs of falling to Concubine Wu Hui, and this matter cannot be guarded against." ”
Concubine Wu Hui is deeply favored by Li Longji, and Gao Lishi, who is deeply trusted by Li Longji, is also from the Wu Mansion and has a close relationship with Concubine Wu Hui, which is originally unfavorable to Li Ying.
"I regret this matter shouldn't have happened in the first place" Yang Chongli said with a wry smile: "It didn't happen if it didn't want to happen, it's useless to say more, it's just that Zheng Peng is now a saint, and he hasn't made any big mistakes, it's too difficult to bring him down." ”
Because of the relationship between her biological mother, Li Ying has been controversial since she was born, and the position of the prince was also a little more stable when Concubine Li was favored.
Yang Chongli squinted his eyes and glanced at Li Ying, and quickly said unhurriedly: "The prince is calm and calm, he must have the answer in his heart, I don't know if I can share it with the old man." ”
Yang Chongli, who has read countless people, saw the prince's expression, and knew that the prince had a plan, knowing that the prince had the intention to show off, he still followed Li Ying's mind and asked questions.
Sometimes it is also necessary to take into account the idea of "food and clothing".
The prince put down the teacup, looked left and right, and quickly lowered his voice and said, "Since you can't win over Zheng Peng, just find someone to replace him." ”
"Superseding?" Yang Chongli's face turned pale when he heard this, and he immediately persuaded: "It's not proper, it's not proper, Zheng Peng's importance to the Tang Dynasty is too great, in addition to the protection of masters around him, the emperor will also send people to secretly protect Zheng Peng, as far as the old minister knows, near the Zheng Mansion, there are at least three teams of people secretly protecting Zheng Peng. ”
The prince's words startled Yang Chongli and hurriedly persuaded him.
The price of assassinating Zheng Peng is too great, so big that even the crown prince can't afford it.
"Elder Yang misunderstood the meaning of this palace, what this palace means is to find someone to replace Zheng Peng's position, get Zheng Peng down first, and wait for him to be no longer important in the eyes of his father, and then it will be the end of Zheng Peng." Li Ying said through gritted teeth.
For Zheng Peng, Li Ying can be said to hate him to the core, but she has no thoughts about him.
Yang Chongli suddenly came to the spirit: "The old minister listens to the prince's teachings. ”
Li Ying opened his mouth and said: "Even this palace has to admit that Zheng Peng's brain is very lively, there are always a lot of unexpected whimsical ideas, if he didn't fall to Concubine Wu Hui, this palace would have become a very good friend with him, you must know that Zheng Peng's edge has long been revealed, when Zheng Peng needed a large number of craftsmen to form the Ximen Fourth Army, this palace secretly sent many craftsmen to approach Zheng Peng, and let them take the position through various methods, whether it is the Three Treasures or the Firearms Department, there are our people, especially in the Firearms Department, There is a person who belongs to the palace who has quietly sat in an important position, as long as Zheng Peng is brought down, our people will be able to take the position and master the most important firearms department, which is equivalent to an extra Dinghai God Needle. ”
"Huh, what's the matter?" Yang Chongli's eyes lit up, and those old eyes that were a little faint suddenly came to their senses.
"Zheng Peng prefers talented craftsmen, and there are traces of them for a long time, and this palace is just to his liking." Li Ying's face showed a hint of triumph.
People have no foresight, there must be near-term worries, the more the status is not in a hurry, the more Li Ying attaches importance to the people around Li Longji, since Zheng Peng attracted Li Longji's attention, it also aroused Li Ying's interest, and secretly laid out some chess pieces, but I didn't expect it to be really used.
It really can't be wooed, and there is a gap between the two sides, at this time Li Ying is not polite, and is ready to use the chess pieces laid out in the early years to close the net.
"The prince has made up his mind, so what's the matter with the old minister?" Yang Chongli asked with some puzzlement.
"As the saying goes, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure" Li Ying said solemnly: "This matter is very important, and there is no room for mistakes, this palace wants Yang Lao to take the pulse first, see what is missing, put it forward, discuss improvements, and it is best to be foolproof, of course, Zheng Peng is deeply favored by his father, with the support of the Boling Cui family, and his popularity in the DPRK is not bad, it is difficult to bring him down, and this matter also needs Yang Lao's cooperation." ”
Yang Chongli didn't say it well, nor did he say it badly, Li Ying said such a big secret, he still said indifferently: "The old minister wants to hear the prince's thoughts first." ”
