I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 296 Reckless and impulsive
Thinking of Yin Wuyan's dangerous situation in the future, Zhan Feiyu felt that he must get the gunpowder out as soon as possible. She had also checked before, and there were records of gunpowder in books hundreds of years ago: Saltpeter out of the Long Road.

Regarding the formula of gunpowder, there is also in the classics, "burn it with sulfur, realgar and saltpeter, and honey", and the phenomenon of "flame rising, burning hands and burning the house" will occur.

Zhan Feiyu knew that it meant that heating honey could turn it into charcoal, and mixing sulfur and saltpeter with charcoal was the formula for gunpowder.

But even with the formula, the eldest brother also said that the Daqing Dynasty only equipped the army with "flying fire" and "rocket".

The so-called "rocket" is to tie the gunpowder ball under the arrowhead, ignite the fuse and shoot it out with a bow.

But the lethality of gunpowder is not great, and gunpowder is not easy to store, and it will lose its effectiveness once it gets wet. However, if the environment is too dry, it is worried that the gunpowder will burn, and even cause an explosion because it is stored in a closed container.

Therefore, in the entire Daqing Dynasty, Jingwei's magic battalion was equipped with flying fire and rockets. The magic battalion of [-] soldiers only obeyed the orders of the current emperor and was responsible for the safety of the capital and the palace.

"Scared?" Qiu Zongxi looked at Zhan Feiyu who frowned so much that he could kill flies, and felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have said these words, making the girl worry about Gu Qingzhou who was far away in the capital.

After recovering, Zhan Feiyu was about to speak, but hurried footsteps sounded outside the door. Before the maid guarding the door had time to salute, Yang Xu opened the door and rushed into the inner room.

Looking at Yang Xu who was carrying a gust of cold wind and coldness, Qiu Zongxi's face darkened, "What does he look like recklessly!"

Although Yang Xu and Zhan Feiyu also read and write in the study room on weekdays, Qiu Zongxi and He Nuan are also in the study room, but this is the inner room, the bedroom, and Yang Xu broke in carelessly, even if Qiu Zongxi didn't care about it. Xiaojie also thinks that Yang Xu is too rude.

Running so fast that he was short of breath, Yang Xu stood still, staring at Zhan Feiyu who was half leaning on the bed with dark eyes, puzzled, angry and even disappointed.

Looking at Yang Xu with spikes all over his body, Zhan Feiyu couldn't help but think of the first time they met in Shitou Village that day. Yang Xu was also like this. Did he know the news of the girl from the Fu family's death?

"Did you go out at midnight last night?" Yang Xu clenched his hands into fists, his voice hoarse, his eyes still fixed on Zhan Feiyu's face, as if he didn't want to miss her every expression.

"Yes." Zhan Feiyu nodded. Although she went out last night quietly, Ah Nuan took her to jump out of the fence and leave the Qiu Mansion. The old family also knows.

His heart sank to the bottom all of a sudden, unwilling to believe it, Yang Xu asked again sullenly, "Did you go to Fu's house?"

Looking at Yang Xu who was tense and seemed to be suppressing the overwhelming anger, Zhan Feiyu's eyes widened a little. Did he think that he killed the Fu family girl?
Suddenly, the thread in his mind broke, and Yang Xu roared angrily, "Are you talking?"

Zhan Feiyu was already feeling dizzy and uncomfortable because of the wind and cold, but when he looked at Yang Xu, who was angry like a small animal, and met his disappointed eyes, Zhan Feiyu also became angry for no reason, and sat half-recumbent. Straightforward, "Yes! I went to the Fu family!"

Qiu Zongxi didn't know what happened at this time, Zhan Feiyu left suddenly at midnight last night, Qiu Zongxi didn't care after hearing the report, and didn't let anyone follow him.

He Nuan went to ask for leave in the morning, Qiu Zongxi was not surprised that Zhan Feiyu would catch the cold, the little girl was very afraid of the cold, but she went to Fu's house when she went out?
"It was you who killed Fu Langhuan?" Yang Xu questioned word by word, the corners of Yang Xu's eyes turned red, how could she be so careless about human life?
"I think you fell into the water yesterday and broke your brain!" Accompanied by Qiu Zongxi's angry shout was the teacup that Qiu Zongxi threw at him. Fortunately, even if he was annoyed, the teacup was only thrown at Yang Xu's back, otherwise he would really hit his head. Definitely going to be bloody.

He Sheng, who didn't know when he entered the room, flashed his figure and stood in front of the bed, but his gentle and honest face was indifferent at the moment, "Master Yang, please respect yourself, Miss is going to rest, please go ahead."

"I..." Looking at He Sheng with an indifferent expression, and then at Zhan Feiyu with a calm expression, but his eyes seemed inexplicably alienated and cold, Yang Xu froze for a moment, the original anger disappeared without a trace in an instant, thinking I opened my mouth, but I was at a loss and didn't know what to say.

This elm head!Qiu Zongxi couldn't see it.

Although the Yang family is a military general, they are still planning strategies, winning thousands of miles away, how come Yang Xu has become a muscle, and the age of eight is not too young, to be so reckless and impulsive.

"Okay, come out with me!" Qiu Zongxi stood up, and pressed one hand on Yang Xu's shoulder, so strong that Yang Xu knew that he had to leave.

But when he thought of the news he had just received, Yang Xu's feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, and he stared at Zhan Feiyu stubbornly and stubbornly, wanting her to give him an explanation.

"You idiot! If she wants to kill someone, she needs to go there in person? Do you think He Sheng and He Nuan are just a display, or are they all wooden people in the dark?" Qiu Zongxi slapped Yang Xu on the back of the head violently, his hands A cleverness directly dragged Yang Xu out of the bedroom. I have never seen such a stupid person before.

He Sheng looked at it coldly, then cleaned up the broken teacups on the ground, and looked at Zhan Feiyu who was leaning back on the bed again, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, "Miss?"

"Is there any news from big brother? Who planted the osmanthus grass?" Zhan Feiyu asked. She regarded Yang Xu as a friend, but what she valued more was the military power of the Yang family. Of course, Yang Xu was also worth a friend.

But just because he knew Yang Xu's temperament, Zhan Feiyu didn't care about the eight-year-old child, but his questioning attitude just now made Zhan Feiyu uneasy. Since he was a friend, at least he should ask himself first instead of hearing the news Convict yourself directly.

Seeing that Zhan Feiyu was really not angry, He Sheng was also relieved, "There is no news yet, the Fu family has already reported the crime, and County Magistrate Zhu brought the arresters to the Fu family."

"Asheng, you go on to Yang Xu's side, I'll sleep first." Zhan Feiyu shrank back into the slightly warm bed, and couldn't help laughing when he saw He Sheng with a surprised expression, "He is not kind, I just want to have Yi, I must feel ashamed of him!"

Uh... He Sheng couldn't help but sympathize with Yang Xu who left.

The bedroom became quiet again, Zhan Feiyu emptied his head and closed his eyes, thinking he was still asleep, but after a while, he fell into a dark and sweet dream.

……

The courtyard living room.

Qiu Zongxi sat on the main seat, looked at Yang Xu who was standing beside him with his head bowed and knowing his mistake, he was laughed angrily, and mocked: "Didn't you break into the girl's boudoir majestically just now, would you be scared? It's too late for the old man to tell you."

Asked the servant girl to bring tea over, Qiu Zongxi took two sips, and finally dissipated his anger, "Gu Qingzhou has been such a little disciple all these years, what kind of baby is he, who sent a carriage to the little girl all the way in the capital? Stuff for the carriage, food and clothing, you ate those things too, Yang Xu, Yang Xu, you are picking up the bowl to eat, and cursing your mother when you put it down, you are the one who is ungrateful and wolf-hearted!"

In fact, although Xueshi Gu also sent a carriage of things, the rest were sent by Yin Wuyan, only in the name of Xueshi Gu.

"Before the Yang family recovered, you offended the cabinet scholar to death. Do you think the sage has to take care of the Yang family? Yang Xu, you are capable. The Yang family has been framed for more than eight years of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and it is finally going to be punished." Well, it's all ruined in your hands."

Qiu Zongxi looked at Yang Xu, who was full of disbelief, and couldn't help snorting, "What do you think is power over the government? Under one person, over ten thousand? The old man told you why the little girl didn't go to the capital, because Gu Qingzhou didn't want her to go! "

"She went to the capital, not to mention the children of the aristocratic families, even the princes and grandsons in the palace will play tricks on little girls. Marrying her is equivalent to gaining the support of Gu Xueshi, the loyalty of half of the courtiers, and the support of scholars all over the world." , equal to being the future prince!"

Outside the house, Yang Shoucheng was standing under the eaves blowing the cold wind. Hearing Qiu Zongxi's scolding, Yang Shoucheng stood up straight, and there was no fear on his cold and hard face.

Yang Xu was so scolded that he couldn't even raise his head, and he wished he could die to apologize. Then Qiu Zongxi felt relieved, and put the teacup on the table, "I don't blame my father, are you going to be a door god outside the door?"

Yang Xu was taken aback for a moment, then looked back, only to see Yang Shoucheng walking in from the door with snowflakes on his body, "Father."

Ignoring his battered son, Yang Shoucheng took the lead to salute Qiu Zongxi, "Uncle Qiu, Yang Xu has made you bother."

Qiu Zongxi waved his hand. He had already said what he needed to say just now, and Yang Xu couldn't be blamed. He grew up in Shitou Village these years.

Yang Shoucheng looked at Yang Xu who looked terrified, his expression was too calm, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know what's wrong?"

"Father, I know I was wrong." Yang Xu sincerely repented, Grandpa Qiu was right, he shouldn't be so impulsive and reckless, if Xiaoyu really wanted to kill someone, he didn't need to do it himself.

"You have three mistakes." Yang Shoucheng looked at the straight Yang Xu and continued: "One mistake: After hearing the news, you will be controlled by your emotions and lose your reason and judgment. If you are marching and fighting, this is a big taboo!"

"Second mistake: You and Xiaoyu are friends, but you suspect her, Yang Xu, put yourself in your shoes, if what happened to you today, would Xiaoyu think you are the murderer? The murderer who framed you?"

Yang Xu's face turned pale, and he lowered his head again, especially when he thought of Zhan Feiyu's cold and distant expression when he left the bedroom, he felt even more uncomfortable.

Looking at the listless Yang Xu, Yang Shoucheng was merciless, "Three mistakes: If Xiaoyu is the murderer, you will not only startle the snake, but also put yourself in danger if you rush over to question him so recklessly."

After a while, Yang Xu went out in disgrace. He originally wanted to go to Zhan Feiyu's place, but when he thought that she was caught in the wind and cold, he turned and walked towards the kitchen. Dad was right, if you want to apologize, you must show sincerity. It's useless to just say a few words without pain or itching.

In the room, Qiu Zongxi said, "What's the situation with the Fu family?"

"Wu Zuo has passed the body test. The girl from the Fu family was strangled to death, and the murderer was Zhou Shuyao who stayed at the Fu family last night..." Yang Shoucheng has been in Xiangwu County for the past few days, so he got the news immediately , but he didn't expect that the little girl from the Fu family would die.

Regarding what happened in Meigu yesterday, Yang Shoucheng didn't deal with it as soon as he knew about it. Yang Xu fell into the water to save someone, and the Fu family used it to force the marriage.

It's just that Yang Shoucheng was thinking about tempering Yang Xu, so Yang Shoucheng ignored it. Who would have thought that such an accident would happen, and a little girl died like this. It seems that in order to deal with the Yang family, the person behind the scenes is He used everything to the extreme, Fu Langhuan's life was nothing at all.

After listening to Yang Shoucheng's words, Qiu Zongxi half-closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, looking at Yang Shoucheng who was still calm and calm, "Is there any clue? Who moved the hand?"

As Qiu Zongxi said before, if Zhan Feiyu wanted to kill someone, he would not do it himself. The same thing applies to Zhou Shuyao. How could the eldest daughter of the Zhou family strangle Fu Langhuan to death by herself? What means.

"The Fu family went to the county government prison in secret before." Yang Shoucheng didn't hide it either.

Since the news that the Yang family was going to recover came out, Yang Shoucheng contacted the old Yang family, and all the troubles in Xiangwu County were under his control.

It can even be said that he is well aware of the entire situation in Longyou Dao, so no matter how secretive the Fu family's actions are, they can't hide it from Yang Shoucheng.

"You mean Mrs. Zhang?" Qiu Zongxi's expression darkened. The only person who might have something to do with Yang Xu when the Fu family went to the county government prison was Mrs. Zhang who was still in the prison.

Mrs Zhang was imprisoned by Wei for murder, but Mrs Zhang is a weak woman, so it is impossible for her to kill those eight ruffians, the murderer must be someone else, Zhang Yiyi can only be regarded as the instigator behind the scenes.

But the murderers were the guards of Zhenbianhou's Mansion, and now that these people are missing, the case has been put on hold, and Zhang Yiyi can only stay in the prison.

Yang Xu had thought of a way before, but if it wasn't for Qiu Jinyu's help, Yang Xu couldn't even visit the prison, let alone bring the doctor into the cell to see Zhang Yiyi, so it is absolutely impossible to rely on Yang Xu to rescue Zhang. .

"What is Mrs. Zhang going to do? Sell the child to protect yourself?" Qiu Zongxi mentioned Zhang Yiyi with undisguised displeasure on his face.

Thinking about how fu family dealt with Yang Xu in such a dirty way, it was probably Zhang Yiyi's idea. Qiu Zongxi was so annoyed that he wished Zhang Yiyi would be executed immediately, so as to save Yang Xu from harming him in the future.

Yang Shoucheng looked calm, as if he was only talking about a stranger, "Ms. Zhang is a smart person, she knows that even if she survives by chance, she will never see the light of day in this life. She may have made arrangements in advance."

Yang Xu now has a grudge against Zhang Yiyi, and he will visit the prison only to repay his life, but if the girl from the Fu family can really marry Yang Xu, then in the future, she may blow some pillow wind, and she may be able to soften Yang Xu. Xu's attitude.

The Fu family also wanted to rely on Zhang's mother to ensure Fu Langhuan's status in the Yang family in the future. It can be said that the two parties are mutually beneficial, and it is not surprising that they will reach a cooperation.
