Chapter 207 Prime Minister Li, Your Majesty Let You Taste
Chapter 207 Prime Minister Li, Your Majesty Let You Taste
Seeing Zhao Kun standing at the door, Wang Li thought he was waiting for him specially, so before the carriage stopped, he jumped out of the carriage and waved to Zhao Kun: "Master! How did you know I would come!"
"Uh……"
The corner of Zhao Kun's mouth twitched, and then he said with a smile: "Last night, I was watching the sky at night, and when the Wuqu star came down to earth, I waited here early. I didn't expect it to be you!"
"Wu Qu Xing?"
Wang Li scratched his head, strode forward, and asked, "What is Wuquxing?"
"The god of war in the sky!"
"Really?"
Wang Li's eyes widened, he immediately looked around, and said excitedly, "I am the God of War descending to earth?"
"Don't worry about what it is, just tell me, is there any happy event?"
"What is bad for others is good for me!"
Wang Li nodded, then winked at Zhao Kun and said, "My father said that His Majesty wanted me to take responsibility for the special operations team and sent me to the front line."
"Where are you going?" Zhao Kun asked with a frown.
Wang Li replied seriously: "Go to Shangjun and follow General Xin."
"Don't you want to go to Jiuyuan County?"
"But my dad said, you want me to go to Shangjun..."
"What did your father tell you?" Zhao Kun asked with a frown.
Wang Li thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "It's nothing, just say that the special operations team's departure was deliberately arranged by His Majesty, and the main purpose is to confuse and work carefully."
Hearing this, Zhao Kun was stunned. He didn't expect Wang Ben to say such a thing.
However, this is also good, so as not to lie and explain myself.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Kun asked again: "Then... why did you come to me?"
"In addition to telling you that I am about to go out, there is also an invitation to the party."
"reunion?"
Zhao Kun frowned: "What party?"
"This...isn't this me and Yufei's engagement!" Wang Li scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I want to prepare a special dinner for her before going on the expedition..."
"Hey! You're quite a flirtatious kid!"
"Young master, I know you have a lot of ideas, so please help me!"
"Please?" Zhao Kun raised his eyebrows.
"We two, we can't!"
Wang Li chuckled, wanting to get closer to Zhao Kun.
Zhao Kun raised his hand to stop him: "Don't! Don't come here!"
"Brothers are still clear about it... It's no good, I won't do it!"
"This……"
Wang Li was momentarily at a loss for words.
A charming smile suddenly came to mind in the carriage: "My lord, you want something good? That's fine! Then how about marrying Yamei to you?"
"Sister Yufei!"
At the moment when the coquettish laughter sounded, another shy voice sounded at the same time.
Zhao Kun looked blankly, looked at Wang Li, then looked at the carriage, and thought to himself, why did you send this to your sister?
Before Zhao Kun could react, Lan Yufei took Wang Ya out of the carriage, and said to him, "Why are you still standing at the door? Don't you invite us in, sir?"
"Oh!"
Hearing this, Zhao Kun suddenly said "Oh", and then raised his hand as a gesture of please.
During this process, Wang Ya quickly glanced at Zhao Kun, then lowered her head shyly.
But Wang Li looked at his sister with a complicated expression, patted Zhao Kun on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Although I really don't want this to happen, I don't like anyone except you."
After finishing speaking, he followed Lan Yufei's two daughters into the gate of the mansion, leaving Zhao Kun alone, messed up in the wind.
What's the situation?
Could it be that something happened that I didn't know about?
Shaking his head, Zhao Kun entered the mansion with doubts.
…………
the other side.
After Li Si returned to the city, he led people non-stop to arrest the 'remnants of the six kingdoms' who created the vision.
"Prime Minister Li, the vendors selling beans have been brought under control!"
Li Si'an, the general of Heibingtai stationed in Pinyang County, stepped forward to report.
"Ah."
Li Si, who was sitting on the horse, nodded, then turned to look at Meng Yi who was beside him: "Meng Shangqing, let's go, let's go and see who did it!"
"Please!"
Meng Yi politely made a gesture of invitation to Li Si.
Although there is some gap between Li Si and Wang Ben, he has a good relationship with Meng Yi.
The main reason is that Meng Yi has nothing to do with the world in court, so he is not enough of a threat to him.
Seeing Meng Yi making a gesture of invitation to himself, Li Si was not polite, and directly drove his horse forward.
Soon, they came to the house where the traders were held.
"crunch~"
The door was opened by the guard.
Li Si and Meng Yi entered the door one after another.
At this time, several traders of different heights and thinness were being tied to the pillars inside the door.
It looked like he had been executed.
Li Si took the whip, walked up to the pillar, glanced at them, and said in a deep voice: "According to the investigation of the facts, there are remnants of the six kingdoms in the city who intend to rebel, and anyone who catches these people will be rewarded!
If someone assists them, or shelters them, sit together according to the law! "
"Now, you'd better tell the truth, is there any suspicious person waiting to buy beans from you?"
Li Si's tone was so cold that the merchant, who was already under torture, trembled in fright.
Although Pinyang City is not big, there are quite a few people who buy Shu. It is very difficult for them to distinguish suspicious people.
So a few people didn't know how to answer at all.
But it was impossible not to answer, so a bold merchant said cautiously: "Return to Shangguan, we don't know who is suspicious, but we have deeds for those who have bought bean, you can check it."
As soon as the words came out, the other vendors immediately nodded in agreement: "Well, yes, yes, yes!"
Li Si frowned, and asked again; "Where is the deed?"
"In my shop."
"Yes, mine is also in the shop!"
"."
Several vendors revealed the location of the deed scroll one after another.
The so-called deed is something similar to a small ticket.
In the Qin Dynasty, whenever a commodity was purchased, the merchant would write down the transaction item, price, and address of the buyer on the deed, and then saw it in half, with the buyer and seller each holding one half.
If there is a problem with the quality of the product, or the number of coins is wrong, the buyer can find the merchant to return the product with the deed.
On the contrary, if the buyer cheats in this way, the seller can report to the official to arrest him according to the address.
Li Si was familiar with Qin Lv, so he naturally knew the function of the deeds, so he didn't make things difficult for them. He greeted his subordinates and prepared to take people to find the deeds.
However, Meng Yi at the side stopped him: "Prime Minister Li, those remnants of the Six Kingdoms will not be here for long, so we only need to investigate those who have just entered the city!"
"It makes sense!"
Li Si was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Then let's go now."
In the afternoon, Li Si finally found a suspicious house.
But he did not act rashly,
Because there are more than ten deeds pointing to this place, it means that there should be more than ten people inside.
Since it is the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, it must not be an ordinary person.
Although Li Si brought a lot of guards from the Black Ice Terrace, there was no need to increase casualties at this time.
"Prime Minister Li, there are indeed quite a few people here, but they don't seem to notice us!"
Meng Yi stood on a high place, frowned and stared at Li Si, and said to Li Si.
Li Si nodded, and then pondered; "Perhaps, they were already prepared and waited for us to rush in."
"In that case, why not attack with fire?"
"Fire attack?"
Li Si reacted for a while, suddenly rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "It is better to use fire to attack than to use smoke. As long as we let them come out, we can catch them by surprise!"
"Prime Minister Li is still brilliant!"
Meng Yi smiled and complimented.
Li Si immediately ordered Lang Jiang behind him: "Did we hear everything clearly?"
"Listen clearly!"
General Lang replied respectfully.
"Listen clearly, let's do it quickly!"
"promise."
As Lang was about to leave, the inside of the house wall was soon covered by thick smoke.
The people in the house were also stimulated by the thick smoke, and rushed out of the door one after another.
At this time, General Lang, who was waiting by the wall, immediately ordered: "Kill! Catch as many alive as possible!"
"Clang clang-"
For a while, the voice of Jin Ge was heard endlessly.
I don't know how long it took before the battle gradually subsided.
There were 15 people in total, half of them were killed, and the rest were captured alive.
You don't need to think about it, but those who are captured alive will definitely face severe torture.
"retreat!"
After catching the man, Li Si waved his hand, and then said to Meng Yi: "Meng Shangqing, I still want to participate in the interrogation, you can report the details to His Majesty."
"Then Prime Minister Li has worked hard!"
Meng Yi smiled and cupped his hands, then turned and walked towards the Qinhuang Palace.
But Li Si didn't leave in a hurry, stayed for a while, and then walked into the house.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Ping came to the gate of the palace early, waiting for the first emperor to summon him.
After sending Wang Li and others away yesterday, Zhao Kun taught him how to make salt overnight.
Although he still can't understand many terms, he has basically mastered the process of making salt.
Looking at the thick palace walls, Chen Ping took out the method of making salt handwritten by Zhao Kun, secretly admiring it.
Even though he had learned how to make salt, he was still overwhelmed by Zhao Kun's knowledge.
"I really don't know who the young master studied under. If you have the opportunity, you must ask the young master."
Chen Ping murmured something, then raised his head and looked forward.
At this time, a palace attendant in a gray robe shouted loudly at him: "Xuan! See you, Chen Ping!"
Soon, Chen Ping entered the meeting hall, and bowed his hands upwards: "Chen Ping, the little man, pay homage to Your Majesty!"
As soon as the words fell, the hall was completely silent.
Chen Ping was a little dazed, but he didn't dare to look up.
After a while, a sharp voice suddenly sounded: "Excuse me, give me a seat."
Hearing this, Chen Ping took the opportunity to raise his head to thank him.
However, as soon as he looked up, he didn't see the first emperor sitting in the hall, but saw a huge screen.
What's the situation?
Did the first emperor never show his face?
Before Chen Ping could react, Zhao Gao on the high platform immediately reminded: "Chen Ping, are you still seated?"
"Your Majesty is taking the liberty to make amends."
Hearing Zhao Gao's reminder, Chen Ping quickly bowed his hands to the screen.
Ying Zheng behind the screen rolled his eyes, then waved to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao immediately understood, smiled and said to Chen Ping, "It's okay, take your seat."
"promise."
Chen Ping promised, and under the guidance of the palace attendant, he sat down nervously.
At this moment, Li Si stood up and reported to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, I have found out about the phenomenon, and the people involved have been arrested and brought to justice."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng gave a "hmm" and asked Zhao Gao to dismiss Li Si.
Li Si's forehead was covered with black lines, and he always felt that he was being targeted.
But Ying Zheng ignored him and handed Zhao Gao another silk cloth.
Zhao Gao took the silk cloth and looked at it, then read aloud: "Chen Ping breaks the vision, listens and listens, and is a loyal people of the Great Qin;
I have rewards for meritorious deeds and fines for demerits. Chen Ping has made meritorious service in Qin Dynasty, and specially bestowed on the noble doctor, thirty yi of gold, and six hundred households of food. "
As soon as the words fell, the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay.
Chen Ping was also stunned.
He didn't expect the reward from Emperor Shi Huang to be so good.
The starting point is actually a fifth-class noble. If this is placed on the battlefield, many people will have to be killed.
Moreover, the title of doctor is considered aristocratic, because a doctor can support retainers and warriors.
From a commoner to an aristocrat, is it so simple?
Chen Ping thought to himself, but he was not in a hurry to thank him, because the purpose of his coming was not just for the title of doctor.
After pondering for a moment, he cupped his hands towards the screen and said, "I report to Your Majesty, I have something to play."
"Ah!"
Ying Zheng let out a "huh" and turned to look at Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao understood immediately, and said: "Quick play."
Seeing such a weird scene, the officials in the hall were confused, and they really couldn't understand the actions of the first emperor.
Could it be that His Majesty fell ill again?
Can't blow the wind?Still speechless?
If you are sick, you should take a good rest. Why do you have to bother with this?
Feng Quji looked at Meng Yi with doubts, Meng Yi smiled wryly and shook his head, then looked at Li Si.
Li Si took a deep look at Chen Ping, thoughtful.
And Chen Ping was also very depressed.
Originally, he wanted to show himself well in front of the first emperor and strive to complete the task.
It's really sad that I can't even see the first emperor now.
However, as soon as it comes, it is safe.
After hesitating for a while, he cupped his hands towards the screen and said, "Your Majesty Qizuo, I have accidentally obtained a method of making salt, which can turn poisonous salt into non-toxic salt!"
wow——
As soon as Chen Ping finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.
"What?! Turn poisonous salt into non-toxic salt?"
"How is this possible! How can His Majesty speak nonsense in front of you!"
"Yes, Doctor Chen! Don't talk nonsense!"
"........."
All the ministers in the hall unanimously tried to persuade Chen Ping, and even Feng Quji who was at the side couldn't help reminding him: "Doctor Chen, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Feng Youxiang, don't worry."
Chen Ping smiled at Feng Quji, then took out the bamboo slips, and offered them with both hands: "The method of making salt is all recorded in the bamboo slips. Your Majesty will know whether it is true or not."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Quji was dumbfounded.
Zhao Gao glanced at the bamboo slips, then turned to look at Ying Zheng, who still waved at him.
Soon, Zhao Gao brought the bamboo slips to Ying Zheng.
This operation made all the officials dumbfounded.
What's the situation?
Your Majesty didn't even bother to ask, and just took the bamboo slips to watch!
Don't you doubt that the method of making salt in this bamboo slip is fake?
Just when the ministers were full of doubts, Ying Zheng had already read the content on the bamboo slips.
He knew all the words in it, but he didn't understand why they were connected together.
For example, words such as filtering, crushing, analyzing, and dissolving are too big to see.
But if you think about it carefully, it's like refining poisonous herbs into medicine.
First detoxification and then medicine.
After pondering for a while, Ying Zheng put away the bamboo slips, picked up a brush and wrote a few words to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao took the words and looked at them, then said to Chen Ping: "Your Majesty asked you to make salt on the spot for everyone to see, and you can directly ask for the cost."
Hearing this, Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly and looked directly at Chen Ping.
Chen Ping's expression was indifferent, and he said without squinting: "Your Majesty, I need..."
He read everything Zhao Kun taught him.
Everyone in the hall, including Ying Zheng, was stupefied.
However, most people felt that Chen Ping was playing tricks, just like those alchemists who tricked His Majesty into taking pills.
However, those alchemists had no good end,
It is foreseeable that Chen Ping's fate is probably similar to those alchemists.
But Chen Ping didn't care about their gazes, and ordered the servants to make salt in an orderly manner.
"Who is that, stir faster! Yes! Use more force!"
"Pay attention to the heat, don't burn it too hot!"
"Don't worry, add water first, wait for it to dissolve, then stir."
Following Chen Ping's command step by step, the atmosphere in the hall began to change.
The courtiers who doubted Chen Ping before now had expectations for his method of making salt.
If this method of making salt is really successful, Chen Ping's name will be recorded in the annals of history.
At this time, Feng Qu rushed forward and asked Chen Ping curiously: "Doctor Chen, can this be successful?"
He knew very well what salt meant to Daqin.
In particular, turning poisonous salt into non-toxic salt is more credit than cracking visions a hundred times.
As the saying goes, a man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. If Chen Ping swallowed the salt-making method privately, he might be killed.
For meritorious ministers, the first emperor was never stingy with rewards.
What's more, it's a great achievement.
"If Feng Youxiang didn't trust me, he wouldn't ask me this question."
Chen Ping glanced at Feng Quji with a smile, and joked.
Feng Quji naturally understood the meaning of his words.
If Chen Ping cheated in public, he would definitely stand up and refute Chen Ping.
Now he came forward to ask calmly, which shows that he believes in Chen Ping in his heart.
Just fear that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"Your boy is capable, the old man knows, but your Majesty, don't be presumptuous in person." Feng Quji replied with a smile, and then returned to his seat.
At this time, Li Si came out again and asked Chen Ping, "Where did you get your salt-making method?"
"It's also from that ancient book!"
Chen Ping lied casually.
When Li Si asked him about the flowering of the stone, he also said that he read it from ancient books.
When Li Si heard this, he obviously didn't believe it, but he couldn't help asking: "Then what is the process of your salt making method?"
"Mainly filter!"
Chen Ping thought for a while and replied; "It is to filter out the toxic substances over and over again, so as to obtain non-toxic brine, and then burn it."
This sounds simple, but it is very difficult to implement, and Chen Ping didn't explain much.
Li Si was left to watch carefully.
After about half an hour, the salt water in the pot had been boiled dry, leaving only a thick, white crust.
"Okay, you can turn off the fire."
Chen Ping glanced at the bottom of the pot, heaved a sigh of relief, and then waved to the palace attendant.
"promise."
The palace waiter made a promise, and quickly moved the brazier away.
At this time, Li Si asked again: "Has the salt been prepared?"
"It's ready!"
Chen Ping replied, then walked to the side of the pot, and nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing this, the officials in the hall immediately stood up and approached the iron pot.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the hall, was also going to watch, but when he got up, he remembered that he was an undercover agent, so he could only forcefully stop his curiosity and sit back.
Zhao Gao, who was on the side, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he could only resist the urge to laugh, and asked Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, can I ask this old slave to bring some salt to watch?"
"Humph!"
Ying Zheng snorted, then glanced at Li Si through the gap, and immediately picked up a pen to write a few words, and handed it to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao took the words and looked at them, his eyelids twitched, then raised his eyes to look at Li Si, hesitated for a moment, and said loudly: "Prime Minister Li, Your Majesty wants you to taste the salt made by Doctor Chen."
boom -
Li Si was struck by lightning when he heard the words, as if he had misheard, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao smiled slightly and gave him a look at the same time.
be strong.
Ask for full order, monthly pass!
(End of this chapter)
Seeing Zhao Kun standing at the door, Wang Li thought he was waiting for him specially, so before the carriage stopped, he jumped out of the carriage and waved to Zhao Kun: "Master! How did you know I would come!"
"Uh……"
The corner of Zhao Kun's mouth twitched, and then he said with a smile: "Last night, I was watching the sky at night, and when the Wuqu star came down to earth, I waited here early. I didn't expect it to be you!"
"Wu Qu Xing?"
Wang Li scratched his head, strode forward, and asked, "What is Wuquxing?"
"The god of war in the sky!"
"Really?"
Wang Li's eyes widened, he immediately looked around, and said excitedly, "I am the God of War descending to earth?"
"Don't worry about what it is, just tell me, is there any happy event?"
"What is bad for others is good for me!"
Wang Li nodded, then winked at Zhao Kun and said, "My father said that His Majesty wanted me to take responsibility for the special operations team and sent me to the front line."
"Where are you going?" Zhao Kun asked with a frown.
Wang Li replied seriously: "Go to Shangjun and follow General Xin."
"Don't you want to go to Jiuyuan County?"
"But my dad said, you want me to go to Shangjun..."
"What did your father tell you?" Zhao Kun asked with a frown.
Wang Li thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "It's nothing, just say that the special operations team's departure was deliberately arranged by His Majesty, and the main purpose is to confuse and work carefully."

"Hey! You're quite a flirtatious kid!"
"Young master, I know you have a lot of ideas, so please help me!"
"Please?" Zhao Kun raised his eyebrows.
"We two, we can't!"
Wang Li chuckled, wanting to get closer to Zhao Kun.
Zhao Kun raised his hand to stop him: "Don't! Don't come here!"
"Brothers are still clear about it... It's no good, I won't do it!"
"This……"
Wang Li was momentarily at a loss for words.
A charming smile suddenly came to mind in the carriage: "My lord, you want something good? That's fine! Then how about marrying Yamei to you?"

After Li Si returned to the city, he led people non-stop to arrest the 'remnants of the six kingdoms' who created the vision.

"Ah."
Li Si, who was sitting on the horse, nodded, then turned to look at Meng Yi who was beside him: "Meng Shangqing, let's go, let's go and see who did it!"
"Please!"
Meng Yi politely made a gesture of invitation to Li Si.
Although there is some gap between Li Si and Wang Ben, he has a good relationship with Meng Yi.
The main reason is that Meng Yi has nothing to do with the world in court, so he is not enough of a threat to him.

Soon, they came to the house where the traders were held.

The door was opened by the guard.
Li Si and Meng Yi entered the door one after another.
At this time, several traders of different heights and thinness were being tied to the pillars inside the door.
It looked like he had been executed.
Li Si took the whip, walked up to the pillar, glanced at them, and said in a deep voice: "According to the investigation of the facts, there are remnants of the six kingdoms in the city who intend to rebel, and anyone who catches these people will be rewarded!

Zhao Gao took the silk cloth and looked at it, then read aloud: "Chen Ping breaks the vision, listens and listens, and is a loyal people of the Great Qin;
I have rewards for meritorious deeds and fines for demerits. Chen Ping has made meritorious service in Qin Dynasty, and specially bestowed on the noble doctor, thirty yi of gold, and six hundred households of food. "
As soon as the words fell, the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay.
Chen Ping was also stunned.
He didn't expect the reward from Emperor Shi Huang to be so good.
The starting point is actually a fifth-class noble. If this is placed on the battlefield, many people will have to be killed.
Moreover, the title of doctor is considered aristocratic, because a doctor can support retainers and warriors.
From a commoner to an aristocrat, is it so simple?
Chen Ping thought to himself, but he was not in a hurry to thank him, because the purpose of his coming was not just for the title of doctor.
After pondering for a moment, he cupped his hands towards the screen and said, "I report to Your Majesty, I have something to play."
"Ah!"
Ying Zheng let out a "huh" and turned to look at Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao understood immediately, and said: "Quick play."
Seeing such a weird scene, the officials in the hall were confused, and they really couldn't understand the actions of the first emperor.
Could it be that His Majesty fell ill again?
Can't blow the wind?Still speechless?
If you are sick, you should take a good rest. Why do you have to bother with this?
Feng Quji looked at Meng Yi with doubts, Meng Yi smiled wryly and shook his head, then looked at Li Si.
Li Si took a deep look at Chen Ping, thoughtful.
And Chen Ping was also very depressed.
Originally, he wanted to show himself well in front of the first emperor and strive to complete the task.
It's really sad that I can't even see the first emperor now.
However, as soon as it comes, it is safe.
After hesitating for a while, he cupped his hands towards the screen and said, "Your Majesty Qizuo, I have accidentally obtained a method of making salt, which can turn poisonous salt into non-toxic salt!"
wow——
As soon as Chen Ping finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.
"What?! Turn poisonous salt into non-toxic salt?"
"How is this possible! How can His Majesty speak nonsense in front of you!"
"Yes, Doctor Chen! Don't talk nonsense!"
"........."
All the ministers in the hall unanimously tried to persuade Chen Ping, and even Feng Quji who was at the side couldn't help reminding him: "Doctor Chen, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Feng Youxiang, don't worry."
Chen Ping smiled at Feng Quji, then took out the bamboo slips, and offered them with both hands: "The method of making salt is all recorded in the bamboo slips. Your Majesty will know whether it is true or not."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Quji was dumbfounded.
Zhao Gao glanced at the bamboo slips, then turned to look at Ying Zheng, who still waved at him.
Soon, Zhao Gao brought the bamboo slips to Ying Zheng.
This operation made all the officials dumbfounded.
What's the situation?
Your Majesty didn't even bother to ask, and just took the bamboo slips to watch!
Don't you doubt that the method of making salt in this bamboo slip is fake?
Just when the ministers were full of doubts, Ying Zheng had already read the content on the bamboo slips.
He knew all the words in it, but he didn't understand why they were connected together.
For example, words such as filtering, crushing, analyzing, and dissolving are too big to see.
But if you think about it carefully, it's like refining poisonous herbs into medicine.
First detoxification and then medicine.
After pondering for a while, Ying Zheng put away the bamboo slips, picked up a brush and wrote a few words to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao took the words and looked at them, then said to Chen Ping: "Your Majesty asked you to make salt on the spot for everyone to see, and you can directly ask for the cost."
Hearing this, Li Si narrowed his eyes slightly and looked directly at Chen Ping.
Chen Ping's expression was indifferent, and he said without squinting: "Your Majesty, I need..."
He read everything Zhao Kun taught him.
Everyone in the hall, including Ying Zheng, was stupefied.
However, most people felt that Chen Ping was playing tricks, just like those alchemists who tricked His Majesty into taking pills.
However, those alchemists had no good end,
It is foreseeable that Chen Ping's fate is probably similar to those alchemists.
But Chen Ping didn't care about their gazes, and ordered the servants to make salt in an orderly manner.
"Who is that, stir faster! Yes! Use more force!"
"Pay attention to the heat, don't burn it too hot!"
"Don't worry, add water first, wait for it to dissolve, then stir."
Following Chen Ping's command step by step, the atmosphere in the hall began to change.
The courtiers who doubted Chen Ping before now had expectations for his method of making salt.
If this method of making salt is really successful, Chen Ping's name will be recorded in the annals of history.
At this time, Feng Qu rushed forward and asked Chen Ping curiously: "Doctor Chen, can this be successful?"
He knew very well what salt meant to Daqin.
In particular, turning poisonous salt into non-toxic salt is more credit than cracking visions a hundred times.
As the saying goes, a man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. If Chen Ping swallowed the salt-making method privately, he might be killed.
For meritorious ministers, the first emperor was never stingy with rewards.
What's more, it's a great achievement.
"If Feng Youxiang didn't trust me, he wouldn't ask me this question."
Chen Ping glanced at Feng Quji with a smile, and joked.
Feng Quji naturally understood the meaning of his words.
If Chen Ping cheated in public, he would definitely stand up and refute Chen Ping.
Now he came forward to ask calmly, which shows that he believes in Chen Ping in his heart.
Just fear that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
"Your boy is capable, the old man knows, but your Majesty, don't be presumptuous in person." Feng Quji replied with a smile, and then returned to his seat.
At this time, Li Si came out again and asked Chen Ping, "Where did you get your salt-making method?"
"It's also from that ancient book!"
Chen Ping lied casually.
When Li Si asked him about the flowering of the stone, he also said that he read it from ancient books.
When Li Si heard this, he obviously didn't believe it, but he couldn't help asking: "Then what is the process of your salt making method?"
"Mainly filter!"
Chen Ping thought for a while and replied; "It is to filter out the toxic substances over and over again, so as to obtain non-toxic brine, and then burn it."
This sounds simple, but it is very difficult to implement, and Chen Ping didn't explain much.
Li Si was left to watch carefully.
After about half an hour, the salt water in the pot had been boiled dry, leaving only a thick, white crust.
"Okay, you can turn off the fire."
Chen Ping glanced at the bottom of the pot, heaved a sigh of relief, and then waved to the palace attendant.
"promise."
The palace waiter made a promise, and quickly moved the brazier away.
At this time, Li Si asked again: "Has the salt been prepared?"
"It's ready!"
Chen Ping replied, then walked to the side of the pot, and nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing this, the officials in the hall immediately stood up and approached the iron pot.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the hall, was also going to watch, but when he got up, he remembered that he was an undercover agent, so he could only forcefully stop his curiosity and sit back.
Zhao Gao, who was on the side, wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he could only resist the urge to laugh, and asked Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, can I ask this old slave to bring some salt to watch?"
"Humph!"
Ying Zheng snorted, then glanced at Li Si through the gap, and immediately picked up a pen to write a few words, and handed it to Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao took the words and looked at them, his eyelids twitched, then raised his eyes to look at Li Si, hesitated for a moment, and said loudly: "Prime Minister Li, Your Majesty wants you to taste the salt made by Doctor Chen."
boom -
Li Si was struck by lightning when he heard the words, as if he had misheard, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao smiled slightly and gave him a look at the same time.
be strong.
Ask for full order, monthly pass!
