Chengqing Hall sits in the south and faces north, condescending, and the scenery of Chang'an can be directly seen outside the main hall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xiao Wenxuan pointed the monocular straight to his eyes according to Professor Xiao Ming's method, and then he only saw that the palace gate that he was once extremely familiar with seemed to be in front of his eyes.

This scene startled Xiao Wenxuan, he immediately put down the binoculars and exclaimed, "What's going on?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan's reaction had already appeared in Niu Ben, Lu Fei and others, so Xiao Ming was not surprised at all, he smiled: "Father don't be surprised, this is the magic of the telescope, and it is not something like witchcraft, but the result of using two uneven glasses." ”

"Two pieces of glass?" Xiao Wenxuan calmed down a little, although he was an emperor, he was still surprised to encounter this kind of thing.

Xiao Ming was already prepared, he picked up another telescope, dismantled the monocular bamboo piece directly, and took out two pieces of glass in it, "Father, you see." ”

Xiao Wenxuan glanced at it, and at this time, Xiao Ming aligned the two lenses back and forth, and the effect was really similar to that of a telescope.

At this time, Xiao Wenxuan suddenly relaxed, with a look of surprise, he picked up the telescope and searched in Chang'an City.

This is the palace gate, where is the minister's office, and outside is Suzaku Avenue, and the people on the avenue can see it more clearly than before.

"Amazing, if this is a time of war, wouldn't it be able to anticipate the enemy's opportunity?" Xiao Wenxuan said.

"Exactly, father, during the battle of Cangzhou, Erchen used this telescope to see much farther than the barbarians."

The conversation between the two has made the full hall of civil and military impatience, and they stretched out their heads to probe their brains one by one, wanting to see what magic there was about this telescope.

Especially the generals, when they learned that this telescope could predict the enemy prophet, they were even more anxious, and Luo Quan had already learned from Luo Xin at home that there was such a thing as a telescope.

However, there are few telescopes in Qingzhou, and they are kept closely.

At this time, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, can you let the last general have a look?" ”

Xiao Wenxuan was on the rise, at this time Xiao Ming gave him such a magical thing, he was full of face, and he wished that someone would share it, so he said: "Come, come and see, this King of Qi is really amazing." ”

A group of officials immediately stepped forward to pick up the binoculars and tried to look at them one by one, constantly exclamating "tsk" from their mouths.

The crown prince and other princes pulled down their faces and stepped forward to test at this time, and after this attempt, their hearts were even more mixed.

After everyone in the court saw it, Xiao Wenxuan turned around in front of the glass artwork again, and then returned to the dragon chair proudly.

"King Qi, the two gifts you gave me, I like them very much, yes, yes, you are really sensible, but where did you learn these strange things?" Xiao Wenxuan asked the question that everyone wanted to know now.

Xiao Ming has been preparing for this question, after all, there is no escaping this question at all, he said: "Back to my father, a few years ago, there was a missionary who claimed to be from the Great Western Kingdom who was attacked by pirates and fled to Erchen's fiefdom, and it was he who gave Erchen some books at that time and taught Erchen these things. ”

"Really? So why didn't Pang Yukun tell me this? Xiao Wenxuan was not stupid, so he asked.

"Back to my father, at that time, the wealthy family in Qingzhou was big, and the sons did not dare to make a noise, so they had to hide the missionary, and when they saw that the knowledge he taught was very useful, the sons and daughters hid their courage to learn from him, waiting for the day to suppress these wealthy families."

"So where is this missionary now?" The King of Shu suddenly asked, his face full of disbelief.

Xiao Ming said: "Because the missionary was too seriously injured, he still fell ill after a year. ”

"Hmph, there is no proof of death." The King of Shu sneered.

Xiao Wenxuan originally listened to Xiao Ming with great interest, but the King of Shu repeatedly spoke disrespectfully, and he snorted heavily, "King Shu, are you guilty!" ”

The king of Shu, who was like a fighting, was stunned and said: "Father, what a crime is there for his sons!" ”

"Smack!" Xiao Wenxuan slapped the table suddenly, stood up and said angrily: "I have sent someone to secretly investigate the matter of you blocking the saltpeter cave and prohibiting saltpeter mining, do you really think that I don't know?" The king of Qi resisted the barbarians in Cangzhou, but you didn't care about the safety of the Dayu country, so scheming, you are simply the heart of a wolf, you have to force me to cut off your vassal king, right? ”

"Father." The King of Shu was so frightened that his heart trembled, and he immediately knelt down, "Father, the son really didn't mean to target the King of Qi, it's just, it's just ......"

As he spoke, he looked at the third prince for help.

The third prince secretly scolded this younger brother for being stupid enough, he didn't support it in that situation at that time, but he couldn't dismantle the backstage, and it was inevitable that he would settle accounts after the autumn.

But who made this King of Shu his own brother? He said: "Father, the king of Shu is at fault, but he will also make an unintentional mistake, because the sons and daughters got the news that some merchants smuggled saltpeter to the barbarians, and it is estimated that after getting this news, the king of Shu will ban the mining of saltpeter mines in a hurry." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, Father, that's what it looks like." The King of Shu said urgently.

Unlike the hereditary domains of the vassal kings with different surnames, if the royal vassal king makes a big mistake, the emperor has the right to take back the edict, after all, not everyone among the many princes is eligible for the fief.

Some unfavored and young princes' fiefs are just a county.

Because of this, the king of Shu was shocked, and the status of the vassal king with a fief and the vassal king without a fief was very different.

Xiao Wenxuan sneered, "Third prince, you are excusing the King of Shu again." ”

"Father, this is really the case." The third prince was also in a cold sweat behind his back, if it was someone else, he really didn't dare to take this risk.

Frowning, Xiao Wenxuan said: "Even so, the King of Shu is acting so recklessly, he can't hand over the saltpeter mine to him to act arbitrarily, where is Qin Chengming, the supervisor of the Shaofu?" ”

"The minister is here." A red-robed official came out of the ranks.

"From now on, the saltpeter mine in this Shu is supervised by the Shaofu Supervisor, and the saltpeter supply in various places is uniformly deployed by the Shaofu Supervisor. Xiao Wenxuan said.

"Father is wise!" Xiao Ming's heart blossomed.

This King of Shu is really an immortal series, and now that the saltpeter mine has been returned to the Shaofu Supervisor, and under the supervision of Xiao Wenxuan, he is a little more relieved.

However, in his opinion, Xiao Wenxuan is also extremely shrewd, and after this artillery, he stretched out his hand to gunpowder, which has the idea of clamping down on various forces in the world.

After saying this saltpeter, there is nothing else in the court, and the victory in Cangzhou makes other small things seem insignificant.

Xiao Ming took the opportunity to say: "Father, the son is preparing to return to Qingzhou in the next two days, I'm afraid I can't wait for the big competition in the army." ”

According to the current situation, many people must have problems for themselves, and he doesn't want to expose the combat strength of the Qingzhou army.

Second, his Qingzhou is not used to participate in these fancy projects, he thought about it for the past two days, but decided not to participate, after all, this time and again, plus a few more days, this month has passed.

However, Bei Shan's blood wolf tribe entered Youzhou at this time, and he had to go back and personally supervise the construction of a new city wall.
