Chapter 283: Once the Son of Heaven and a courtier, if he wants to use it, he will use his own people

Chen Ying was surprised to find that Zhang Zhongjian had a large scar on his back, which looked shocking. Chen Ying was secretly surprised, Zhang Zhongjian's kung fu is very high, in this era, it belongs to the pinnacle of existence, and no one should be able to hurt Zhang Zhongjian.

Zhang Zhongjian found that Chen Ying was staring at his back, and said with an indifferent smile: "This injury is nothing!" ”

Chen Ying said suspiciously: "This knife scar looks like it should be stabbed by a not-so-sharp weapon, in this world, there are still masters who can hurt you?" ”

"In front of the heavens, people are just ants!" Then, Zhang Zhongjian told Chen Ying about this more than two-year overseas experience. With the sophisticated equipment supplied by Chen Ying, Zhang Zhongjian led thousands of good men to start attacking Tsukushi Island, and discovered a huge silver mine on Tsukushi Island with an absolute overwhelming advantage.

In this situation, Zhang Zhongjian couldn't help but believe Chen Ying's words, believing that there was a gold mountain made of gold on the Fusang continent, 20,000 miles away from Zhuzi Island, as well as seeds that could produce dozens of stones of grain per mu and countless pearls and gemstones.

In order to be able to reach the legendary Fusang continent smoothly, Zhang Zhongjian was very well prepared, he used years of accumulation, cobbled together 11 ships of 10,000 materials, and organized more than 1,000 excellent sailors, prepared enough food and water for thousands of people to eat for two years, and began to board this expedition.

At the beginning, Zhang Zhongjian was very smooth, successfully arrived on Chamorro Island (Guam), and found what Chen Ying said about Chamorro Island, bougainvillea, ifel trees and fruit pigeons, Zhang Zhongjian became more and more confident in the gold mountain that Chen Ying said.

However, after passing through Chamorro Island, Zhang Zhongjian began to have bad luck, they first encountered a violent gale, the diameter of the mast of up to one foot six inches, was directly blown off by the wind, and the rudder with a diameter of more than two feet was smashed by the waves, no coincidence, these two big ships that lost control were relatively close, causing the two big ships to be unable to control the direction, and they actually collided together, one of the boats was knocked out of a big hole, sunk on the spot, and the crew on the ship only rescued a small part, and the other ship was lucky, Although it was damaged, it was able to hold on after repair.

After the loss of a ship, Zhang Zhongjian's bad luck has actually just begun, they also encountered a thunderstorm at sea, the sea is full of black and oppressive dark clouds, countless thick thunder and lightning tumbling in the clouds, and from time to time there are thunderbolts falling on the sea, which makes the bearded man also frightened and hurriedly ordered the fleet to turn, for which he even did not hesitate to deviate from the original course, but the thundercloud moved too fast, and finally the fleet was still rubbed to one side by the thundercloud, and as a result, a ship was hit by lightning and caught fire, Several other sailors were killed on the spot by lightning.

Although it was rescued in time, the ship was damaged by lightning and eventually lost its rescue value and fell silent. If the phenomena of storms and thunder and lightning are rare, they are still within Zhang Zhongjian's acceptance, because these storms and thunderbolts are only a little larger in scale than before, and they are not unseen.

However, what happened later almost made Zhang Zhongjian doubt his life. Half a month after he lost two sea boats, the third Wanliu sea ship also began to have an accident, and it was directly hit and sunk by a huge fish.

Since ancient China did not have the concept of displacement or carrying capacity, people used habitual materials to describe the size of the ship, a piece of wood can float the weight of three adults in the water, equivalent to more than 300 catties, and 10,000 large ships, which is equivalent to more than 3 million catties, about 1,500 tons.

Such a large ship was like a giant in ancient times, but unfortunately it was hit by a giant fish and the deck leaked and sank.

When Chen Ying heard this, he guessed that Zhang Zhongjian might have encountered a blue whale that went out to sea to breathe, the blue whale is already the largest whale in the world, weighing more than 200 tons, and the 200-ton blue whale crashed into a 1,500-ton sea ship, and it was indeed possible to smash the ship of Hai Tongren.

In the face of these setbacks, Zhang Zhongjian was not discouraged, but then an even more terrible situation began to appear, the fresh water at sea was far from enough, and the fresh water either stinked, or it was green and long-haired, and it was seriously deteriorated. There is no way to drink this kind of water directly, and most of the sailors in Zhang Zhongjian's department are actually because they drank spoiled water, and then they got diarrhea and malaria. In addition to diarrhoea and malaria, most of the sailors also suffered from sepsis, and one after the other died.

Hearing this, Chen Ying deeply blamed himself, canned and closed water, can be stored for a long time, at least for more than half a year, of course, Chen Ying also knows very well that the crew suffers from sepsis due to a lack of vitamins, and vitamins can only be obtained from fresh vegetables. As long as there is canned food, this problem can be solved.

Chen Ying fell into deep self-blame.

But Zhang Zhongjian fell into a deep sleep, maybe at this moment, he could really sleep peacefully.

Chen Ying came out of the bathroom and changed into light clothes. At this time, Chen Ying realized that Zhang Zhongjian did not come alone, but led hundreds of people, dozens of huge carriages, and countless sacks.

One of the carriages loaded with things emitted a strong sour smell, Chen Ying picked up the sack with a dagger and saw that it was all pineapples, but unfortunately most of them had deteriorated, for these spoiled pineapples, Chen Ying did not have too many regrets, after all, pineapples are just a fruit, and they are only subtropical fruits, and there is no way to grow them in Guanzhong and the north.

On the second carriage, Chen Ying found that it was actually golden corn, although these corn were not high-yielding crops, they could barely be compared with Champa rice. However, corn stalk is still excellent feed, which is up to 700,000 war horses, it will be rich feed, in the later Xinjiang region, the livestock feeding green storage feed is mainly corn stalks, as long as the green corn stalks are broken and stirred with salt, put into the cellar, after natural fermentation, it will be a great impetus to the animal husbandry of the Tang Dynasty.

Chen Ying counted carefully, these corn seeds are very numerous, there are almost more than 20 vehicles, and there are thousands of stones, Chen Ying is very excited, these corn can be planted hundreds of thousands of acres at one time after the beginning of spring, and it will soon be able to form a scale.

Zhang Zhongjian brought a lot of seeds, such as sweet potato, jicama, potato, cassava, pumpkin, peanuts, sunflowers, peppers, tomatoes, kidney beans, apples, pineapples, custards, guavas, avocados, cashew nuts, cocoa, American ginseng, papaya, upland cotton......

Especially the chili peppers, the moment Chen Ying saw the red chili peppers, he had an urge to cry, for more than six years, and he didn't know the spicy taste for more than six years.

Chen Ying knew that when peppers were planted, only pepper seeds were needed, and other parts could be eaten directly except for seeds.

Majiao Chen Ying already has, and now with chili peppers, it is completely possible to make spicy hot pot for later generations, like the dishes of the spicy series, all of which can be made.

Chen Ying asked people to freeze a whole sheep outside, and waited until the whole sheep was frozen into an ice sculpture, and then took it back to the house and entered the slice. Frozen lamb can be cut into thin slices like cicada wings.

……

Just when Chen Ying was putting all his energy on the spicy hot pot, all the civil and military officials of the East Palace gathered in the main hall of the Xiande Palace.

Li Jiancheng looked at everyone with a solemn expression, and said deeply: "Since the beginning of the Taiyuan army, the princes have come to the East Palace one after another to assist in the construction. Thanks to the love of his father, he built a government hall, concurrently consulted state affairs, served His Majesty, and governed the counties and counties of the world. You have followed the construction, how much hardship you have suffered, how much fatigue you have suffered, and even those who have lost their positions and sacrificed their lives, and you will remember them one by one. ”

Xu Shimo bowed and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the ministers and others assist Ming Jun, and it is their duty to shirk it, and now the disaster of the Tang Dynasty Xiao Wall." Everyone knows that we have no wait, and we almost killed His Royal Highness the Prince, what is the merit? ”

Looking at Xu Shimo and showing his loyalty to Li Jiancheng, other ministers also stood up to express their loyalty to Li Jiancheng, Wei Zheng stood at the outermost side of the crowd, watching Li Jiancheng scold Fang Xuan intently.

Li Jiancheng continued: "At present, the crisis in Chang'an has been lifted, but the crisis in Datang has not been resolved, but may deteriorate at any time......

Xu Shimo said excitedly: "Xu Shimo is willing to listen to His Highness's expulsion!" ”

Li Jiancheng nodded again and again: "From this moment on, the East Palace Guard led the entire mobilization and divided it into two parts. A blockade of Guanzhong, before the King of Qin escapes from the Guanzhong, be sure to leave the King of Qin in the Guanzhong, you must remember, the King of Qin is the brother of the palace, you can only be captured alive, not killed; The other part is to monitor the movements of the soldiers of the Qi Palace, and once there is an abnormality, destroy it immediately. ”

Xu Shimo bowed and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the change in the Linhu Palace, Li Shentong is very obvious on the side of King Qin......"

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "Before King Qin is captured, Uncle Huai'an can't move lightly!" ”

Wei Zheng opened his mouth, but he didn't open his mouth yet.

"Although Uncle Wang of Huai'an can't move, but ......" Li Jiancheng muttered: "Shangshu Province left and right servants, Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Zhongshu Ling of Zhongshu Province, Feng Lun, Yang Gongren, Shizhong of Menxia Province, Chen Shuda, Yu Wenshi and. The three provinces of Shangshu, Zhongshu and Menxia are the departments of the world's government affairs, and they must be filled by some people who are young and strong, and loyal and prudent. Pei Lin needless to say, his position as the left servant of Shangshu will be dismissed today, Wei Zheng, you can sit in this position. Shangshu's right servant shot, Wang Qi, you do it, Yang Gongren is also half of his own person, and he can not move. Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Yu Wenshi and ...... You have to change positions. Three provinces, six departments, nine temples and twelve guards, all of them must be replaced by reliable people......"

Li Jiancheng never thought of replacing his own people on the three provinces, six departments, nine temples and five prisons, in fact, none of the six Xiangguo was Li Jiancheng's own people. The incident this time sounded the alarm for Li Jiancheng, and the six prime ministers were unreliable.

If it weren't for Chen Wei to turn the tide, I'm afraid that the six prime ministers would definitely fall to Li Shimin. This made Li Jiancheng worried.

……

Wearing a crown in full clothes, he walked into the lobby and carefully checked the various items and evidence used in the trial.

Wei Ting and Xu Shimo strode into the lobby.

Dai Xuan suddenly sank his face and shouted coldly: "This official is about to try the case, if the two of you have no other business, please retreat." ”

Wei Ting raised the prince's decree in his hand, threw the edict on the case in front of Dai Xuan and said: "A certain family was ordered by the prince to try it with Dai Shaoqing, and Fang Xuanling's case of rebellion. ”

Xu Shimo glanced at Wei Ting silently and didn't say a word.

Dai Xuan waved to the officials on both sides expressionlessly: "Come on, show these two officials." ”

After a short time, Fang Xuanling walked into the lobby in prison clothes.

Wei Ting took a few shots, which scared Xu Shinuo and Dai Xuan around him, Wei Ting had an urge to laugh, he looked at Fang Xuanling and said with a smile: "The criminal minister Fang Xuanling, when you see this official, why don't you kneel?" ”

Fang Xuanling glanced at Wei Ting, turned his gaze to Dai Xuan and said, "Dali Temple, when did it become the prince's private prison?" ”

The corners of Dai Xuan's mouth twitched twice, gritted his teeth and said: "Wei Ting, today is the presiding judge of this official, if you don't have the permission of this official, your excellency had better avoid opening your mouth."

Wei Ting glared at Dai Xuan angrily.

Dai Xuan was not afraid and replied to Wei Ting with a sharp eye.

Xu Shimo coughed and said, "Please ask Dai Gong to start the trial." ”

Dai Xuan looked down at the document on the case, then looked up at Fang Xuanling and said, "Fang Xuanling, are you guilty?" ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "Fang is not guilty. ”

Dai Xuan shouted coldly: "You coerced Li Shimin, bribed Taishi Ling Fu Yi, falsely spoke about celestial phenomena, framed His Royal Highness the current Prince, and privately mobilized armored soldiers in a vain attempt to kill the king......

Fang Xuanling interrupted Dai Xuan's words and said slowly: "You arrested the wrong person and tried the wrong case!" ”

Dai Xuan frowned and said, "What do you say?" ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head and said: "In the past few days, in this Chang'an City, there are indeed people who have mobilized armor soldiers privately, and there are indeed people who have killed the king and usurped the throne, and the people of Chang'an ...... As long as you are not blind and your ears are not deaf, you should know who mobilized the armor soldiers without permission, and who killed the king and usurped the throne. The person who did this conspiracy is not called Fang Xuanling, his name is Li Jiancheng! ”

Wei Ting patted the case and roared: "Fang Xuanling, you are so bold!" ”

Dai Xuan glared at Wei Ting fiercely.

Xu Shimo kicked Wei Ting at the bottom of the case.

Wei Ting opened his mouth and swallowed the words back into his stomach.

Fang Xuanling said coldly: "Is this the Huanghuang Law Division of the Tang Dynasty, or the lynching place of the East Palace?"

Dai Xuan nodded and said, "Dali Temple is the law department of the imperial court. ”

Fang Xuanling said calmly: "Since it is the legal department of the imperial court, then, I want to sue Li Jiancheng, the prince of the East Palace, for the six major crimes!" ”

Dai Xuan's face changed, and he said solemnly: "Speaking of which——! ”

Fang Xuanling said generously: "Killing my brother - losing morality - Ling Father - bullying the king - forcing the palace - disrupting the country——! ”

The rafter clerk in charge of recording the trial trembled with fright.

Wei Ting's facial muscles twitched, and he gritted his teeth and roared: "This person is crazy and reverses black and white, why do you need to ask again?" Just pull it out and cut it. ”

Dai Xuan forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "Wei joins the army, whether to try or not, how to judge, it is a matter of Dali Temple, if you are not satisfied, you can go to the East Palace, and let the prince remove me as the head of the law department first."

Wei Tingtian overturned the case.

Xu Shimo was startled, and then rolled his eyes helplessly.

Wei Ting's halberd pointed at Dai Xuan and roared: "If you shelter Fang Xuanling, you will abolish the same party as the King of Qin!" ”

Dai Xuan didn't look at Wei Ting, and commanded the officials on both sides and said, "General Wei is ill today, send him back to his house." ”
