Chapter 54: The Pill
Zhuang Ji's entry into Yunnan was only more than 50 years ago, and the rulers of the Dian State were still the Chu people who entered Yunnan at that time. Due to the road, Zhuang Zong, the king of Dian, happily sent an envoy to congratulate him when he heard that the mother country was repeating the old Ying, and the white copper was sent that time. When the Chu State returned the gift, it returned to the Dian State with twenty dragon horses, a hundred sets of huge armor and huge swords, a batch of Dongzhou grain species and the seashells specially requested by the envoy.
After discovering that the white copper contained nickel, he sent an envoy to the Dian State to ask for it, and Zhuang Cheng immediately sent a batch of white copper. The messenger said that Zhuang Cheng had sent all the white copper in the country, but there were still very few, but only more than 1,000 catties. Cupronickel contains more than 10 percent nickel, and 1,000 catties are only 30 or 40 kilograms, and these nickels are added to the iron at a ratio of 5 percent, which can create about 30 sets of giant armor.
According to the envoys, the Dian Kingdom itself did not produce white copper. The location of the Dian Kingdom is in the east of the Dianchi Lake, that is, the later generations of Kunming Chenggong, out of the white copper is some places in the northwest of the Dian Kingdom three hundred miles away, in fact, it is the Yuanmou, Muding and other places in the later generations. The Dian Kingdom had to trade with the natives there in order to get the white copper.
White copper is not precious, and the Dian people mainly use it as decoration. The Dian states were interested in bronze, and they used bronze weapons and bronze armor. Unlike the Zhou people, who could only make armor from cowhide, the Dian people, like the Qiang people, had their own monolithic bronze armor, which was similar in hardness to unheat-treated mild steel, and protected several times as much as leather armor with a surface paint that was only three millimeters thick.
Specifically, the five-stone archers must use armor-piercing heavy arrows within thirty steps to shoot the weak point of the bronze armor to break the armor, which is only armor-piercing, and cannot hurt people; Five-stone archers can shoot through leather armor from 250 paces away with heavy armor-piercing arrows, and they can hurt people. The five-stone archers Chu army totaled a few hundred, and most of the troops were three-stone archers, followed by four-stone archers.
If the Qiang and Dian people were wearing monolithic bronze armor and charged the Chu army, and the archers themselves were unwilling to withdraw from the battle, then he should abandon the bow and use the spear. This is because arrows do not cause any damage unless they hit a gap. And if a Qin soldier dressed in three-millimeter leather armor rushes in, the three-stone archer can shoot arrows at seventy paces, and the arrows can break through the armor and hurt people, and the four-stone archers can fire arrows from a hundred paces away.
The protection of the armor shows the value of bronze, and the white copper is nothing but beautiful. This is another difficulty in obtaining cupronickel from long distances: because of the difference in value and use, the production of cupronickel has always been low. If the distance is close and the yield is high, it is not difficult to obtain cupronickel. The favorite thing of the Dian people is the sea shell, and the Daliang profiteers used to transport tons and tons of sea shells back by sea boat, and imported them into the southwest region to trade with the natives to obtain various local products.
Returning from Jutie Mansion, Xiong Jing has been consulting documents related to white copper in the Dian Kingdom. Distance, production, and the threat of the Qin army in Shu to occupy Duzhong County at any time made it even more difficult to obtain white copper. However, the huge advantage of the nickel armor still made Xiong Jing decide to send envoys to Yunnan again, dragon horses, giant armor, and huge soldiers These things will cause an imbalance in the local military power, and Haibei does not have this concern, and Haibei can be transported to Yunnan unimpeded......
"Da Ao, when it is high spring, the Queen Mother invites Da Ao to Qiuhua Palace for dinner." Chang Jiang saw that Xiong Jing was busy when he came back from Jutie Mansion, and the Queen Mother sent people to invite him twice, and if he didn't go, the Queen Mother would come in person.
"No, no." Xiong Jing impatiently agreed. He wanted to look at the white copper documents again, but he thought that if he didn't go again, the queen mother would really come to invite him, so he could only throw the documents on the case, and got up and went to bed angrily.
Qiuhua Palace was originally Concubine Zhao's dormitory, and even if Ying Nan was a concubine, she was also the highest-ranking concubine in the Chu Palace, so she lived in Qiuhua Palace. Xiong Jing lived with his mother before becoming the crown prince and also lived in Qiuhua Palace. There are too many memories in the small palace room, so much so that when Xiong Jing went up the stairs, he saw the queen mother standing outside the hall, and in a trance, it seemed like he had returned to twelve years ago.
Twelve years ago, he was a child under his parents' knees, thinking about messy things and dreaming strange dreams every day. Twelve years later, his country was on the verge of extinction, his subjects were either killed in battle or surrendered, and only a few could move overseas.
Thinking of this, he was ascending the stairs with a change of face and lowered his gaze.
Ying Nan, who was dressed in black, stood behind Concubine Zhao and peeked at Xiong Jing who had climbed the stairs. Even if she is a concubine, she has become his woman. Every time Xiong Jing went up a step, her heartbeat accelerated a little, and when she saw Xiong Jing coming up, she quickly knelt down and saluted him.
"Excuse me." Xiong Jing's tone was a little light, and it was impossible to deny that the fair-skinned Ying Nan was more beautiful in a black coat, but he was not in the mood at all, and he didn't look at her at all when he spoke.
It is impossible for Concubine Zhao not to know her son's thoughts, she looked at her son who was already a head taller than herself with a smile, and sighed: "Jing'er is long." ”
"The Queen Mother." Xiong Jing's heart swelled with heat, he used to look up to his mother, but now his mother looked up to him. I don't know if it's his delusion, he feels that Concubine Zhao is like a dandelion that has been sprinkled with seeds, withering day by day.
"Let's eat." Concubine Zhao felt the emotion in her son's eyes, she took her son's hand and took him to the general chapter for dinner. Dinner is a common dish in the former Akika Palace, and the best sake in the palace. The mother and son ate happily and talked until Ying Nan came up and invited Xiong Jing to bathe in the room.
"It's spring, and the queen mother is going back to the palace." Concubine Zhao said with a smile, she was mainly worried that her son would not come.
"I'll send my mother." Xiong Jing, who got up, sent Concubine Zhao down the steps, and then turned back to climb the steps to return to the general chapter, Ying Nan knelt on the ground again to greet the salute, and he said helplessly: "The ground is cold, don't be polite." ”
"Yui." Ying Nan heard the wisp of care in his words, and his smile was like a flower for a while. "Please take a bath."
Every dormitory has a chamber, and when Xiong Jing walked to the chamber, the three women knelt on the ground and saluted. They are not palace maids, they are Ying Nan's concubines. The room was humid and hot, these concubines were wearing black sand and couldn't see anything when they knelt on the ground, and they were different when they stood up, the most terrible thing was that the dresses were all black, and the sand was thin and translucent, covering the long and lovely jade legs.
A pair of jade-legged Xiong Jing can resist, so many jade legs are gathered together, half-covered with translucent black veil, the kinetic energy is really huge, and it instantly shoots through Xiong Jing's heart defense and injures him. He stared intently at those beautiful legs, and let the concubines help him take off his clothes until he ......
"Please take a bath." Ying Nan also changed into a black Susha dress, unlike the girls, her skirt did not cover the ankles, but exposed half of the jade legs. Although the jade legs are not as straight as his wife's, they are also shining under the lamp, and they are soul-stunning.
Wife? Thinking of his wife's Xiong Jing couldn't help but give birth to some resistance, he had solemnly sworn to the gods that he would never turn his back on his wife in this life, how could he be infatuated with other women's legs?!
But they're all concubines! As soon as a righteous voice in his heart finished speaking, another voice immediately jumped out to argue. Chu people can have concubines, these women are all concubines, what's not to do? Besides, for the sake of the heirs, shouldn't these long-legged concubines be spoiled? Three sons can be counted as one son, shouldn't they give birth to a few more sons before they die in battle, and continue the bloodline of the Xiong family?
The mist in the room was steaming, Xiong Jing's left hand was half raised, and the whole person was standing comfortably in the hot water, and four women, including Ying Nan, were helping him scrub his whole body. He didn't come back to his senses until Yingnan helped him scrub his armpits. Either because he felt shy when serving a man for the first time, or because the room was too hot, Ying Nan's face was red and his eyes were like water. Seeing that the man who had been absent-minded suddenly looked at her, she lowered her head after calling out Da Ao, and she had forgotten how to scrub her hands in the chaos of the deer in her heart, and she didn't know where to put her hands.
"I don't eat people." Xiong Jing said angrily, and his right hand stroked her jade leg. Yingnan is about ten years younger than Mi Xuan. After giving birth, Mi Xuan's figure gradually plumped, Ying Nan still maintained the thinness of a girl, her skin was delicate and tight, and she liked her legs after a few strokes of Xiong Jing, while Ying Nan trembled, opened her mouth and wanted to shout but didn't dare to shout, and finally half fell into the man's arms......
The completely confused **** starts from the room, and then moves to the room little by little. The first is Ying Nan, and after Ying Nan is the three concubines who are waiting for the bath, but there are more than three concubines in Ying Nan, and there are a bunch of them in the big room. Whenever one woman grabs her dress from the bed and endures the pain, the other woman soon climbs onto the bed, tells her name, and then revels her dress. And under the bed, there was a row of women kneeling waiting for bedtime.
Xiong Jing, who woke up at noon the next day, couldn't remember who he had had a good time with last night, he only remembered that he had pampered Yingnan twice, and then he fell asleep when the rooster crowed three times and the sky was about to dawn. Even so, there are still a few concubines who are not pampered, and this can only wait until the next time.
"Da Ao is awake." Ying Nan got up early, and when he saw the man open his eyes, he said happily, and the crisp voice reminded Xiong Jing of her shouting and gasping last night when she was happy in the room.
Xiong Jing got up, but half of the people fell back, he held his breath and laughed at himself: "Da Ao pill." ”
Ying Nan didn't understand what the pill was, she saw that Xiong Jing was half up and about to fall down and hurriedly held on, and then helped Xiong Jing to get up. "Da Ao's injuries have not healed, and he should have recuperated."
Ying Nan is well-behaved, even if he sees that the man is exhausted because of last night's repeated favors, he opens his eyes and talks nonsense, and he is involved in the man's injury. In normal times, Xiong Jing would definitely be surprised when he heard such a sycophant, but for some reason, Ying Nan was obviously talking nonsense, and he felt very comfortable listening to it. After all, what man wants to admit that he is not sexually competent? Impotence should also be forced to say that the girl is not beautiful, or: 'The main thing is that I don't like that type of ...... very much'
"Pills." Xiong Han, who defended himself, said again that he wanted to finish. On the first day, I was sucked dry by Zhao Nu, and I spoiled Qi Nu tonight. Qi Nu is unrestrained, and it is estimated that there are more than a dozen kneeling under the bed. Tomorrow is Wei Nu, Wei Nu is mostly Zheng Nu, Zheng Nu is gentle, this sucking is even more powerful......
