Great Tang princess

Chapter 435 Qingzhou News
October [-]th, Xiayuan Festival.

Although it is said that he has come to the beach now, Li Yuechen got up early in the morning and obediently put on his Taoist robe and recited scriptures.

Getting up to chant sutras on the fifteenth day of every month has been her habit for many years. Although she is not particularly in awe of ghosts and gods and cannot be called an atheist, she really doesn't take it seriously.

But no matter what, her identity as a Taoist priest is here. As the saying goes, when a monk hits the clock one day, since he is a Taoist priest, he should chant sutras obediently when it is time to chant sutras.

When Li Yuechen first came here, she asked them to build a simple Taoist temple, but it hasn't been built yet, so she can only sit cross-legged in her room and chant scriptures.

Xiao He and Wang Wuqiong also knew her habits, neither of them bothered her, and they would come out to eat at noon when she finished reading.

It's just that before noon, a sentry ran over and said that Jiang Zheng'an was here. At this moment, Geng Yunqiang was receiving him, saying that he wanted to see His Highness.

Wang Wuqiong thought for a while, and walked into the office first.

Seeing her coming, Jiang Zheng'an got up immediately: "Guard Wang, please tell Your Highness, I have something to report!"

"Is it an emergency military situation?" Wang Wuqiong asked back.

"It's not about military affairs, but..."

"Since it's not, please ask Governor Jiang to wait here for a while." Wang Wuqiong interrupted him, "Today's [-]th, when His Highness is chanting scriptures, don't allow me to disturb you except for urgent military situations!"

When Jiang Zhengan heard it, he immediately explained with dancing: "Although it is not an urgent military situation, this matter is also very important! Please inform the guard of the king..."

However, Wang Wuqiong still shook his head: "His Royal Highness has orders, I will not be able to disobey them!"

Seeing her calm refusal, Jiang Zhengan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xiao He.

"Jiang Cishi should sit down and drink some tea, just wait a little bit, the Highness will come out in the afternoon." Xiao He poured him a cup of tea with a smile, "Neither Senior Colonel Geng nor Wuqiong and I will disobey His Highness. ordered!"

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Zheng'an was completely speechless, and could only sit down and drink tea "tont ton".

He can also see that although these people have a good attitude, they are all very stubborn, and it is absolutely impossible for them to listen to their own words.

Calm down and think about it, this is also certain.

He has seen the soldiers here with his own eyes. They are orderly and orderly, and they are uniform. They can train such an army. It can be seen that this princess is absolutely one-sided.

Otherwise, it is impossible to train such an army.

Not to mention that Princess Taiping has a very high prestige, and the army she personally trained is naturally headed by her.

In fact, when they met for the first time, Jiang Zhengan thought that if Princess Taiping wanted to rebel at this time, none of her soldiers would be ambiguous.

A large part of the reason why he was willing to hug the princess' thigh was also here.

Now the facts have proved that women can also be emperors!
Judging from the current queen's children, the most favorable candidate for the future throne is naturally this Princess Taiping!
She needs qualifications and qualifications, prestige and prestige, the key is strength and strength!Just like a female version of Taizong!
Of course, this is all in the future, and now he is only anxious to see the princess and deal with the current matter.

……

Just after Si time, Li Yuechen finished reading the scriptures, stood up slowly, and while taking off his Taoist robe, he moved his body that had not moved for several hours.

After throwing the taoist robe aside, he raised his left leg and put it on the window sill, slowly pressing down.

Because of training since she was a child, Li Yuechen's physical fitness is very good, she can basically do the postures that humans can do theoretically, and the cross-horse is not worth mentioning.

After moving my body for a while, I saw that it was noon, and then I walked out of the room and walked to my office.

As soon as he went out, he saw Wang Wuqiong standing aside, and hurriedly greeted her when she came out.

"Why are you guarding the door today?" Li Yuechen asked.

"Back to Your Highness, Governor Jiang is here. He was fidgeting in the office. I was annoyed, so I came out first." Wang Wuqiong replied helplessly, looking at his expression, it seemed that he was a bit disgusted.

Li Yuechen smiled: "I think it must be some kind of trouble."

She understands the rules set by herself, except for emergency military affairs, other things should not disturb her when she is chanting scriptures or practicing kung fu.

It must be telling the truth that it didn't make sense to them, and they froze for a while.

"Let's go, go and have a look!" She waved her hand lightly, and led Wang Wuqiong to her office.

This time Jiang Zhengan came here, it must be the matter of the salt industry, Li Yuechen didn't take it too seriously, the worst result would be that they rebelled, but as long as they dared to do this, he would be able to bring the army to kill him immediately .

So compared to Jiang Zhengan's so-called urgent matter, Li Yuechen is now more concerned about another matter - after a test some time ago, it shows that the oxygen bag is feasible.

That being the case, can we go one step further and upgrade the hot air balloon to become an airship?
The airship is a means of transportation between a hot air balloon and an airplane. Compared with a hot air balloon, its advantage is that it has more power systems and can control the direction.

If it is said that airships can be produced in this era, then the formation of an air force will truly become possible!
Even if there is no steam engine, relying on manpower to make pedal propellers can become an invincible existence in this era!
Li Yuechen has played with airships before, and knows the principle and production process of this thing. It can be said that the structure is extremely simple.

The only complicated question is, where to get so much hydrogen in this era?

I remember the teacher said that green vitriol seems to be fine, and this thing is available in Shandong, so it is easy to get it.But what else is needed?Is it zinc or iron?

It's been too long, I can't remember it for a while, and I have to find some time to try it out.

As long as hydrogen can be obtained, airships can be manufactured in this era.

If this thing can be made, whoever dares to rebel will fly over and throw you a grenade from the sky without saying a word, artificially create a bombing zone, whether you are cavalry or infantry, whether you are defending the city or attacking the city, you will definitely be invincible!

And it can also be used as a means of transportation. It will be more convenient for the emperor to travel between Chang'an and Dongdong in the future.

This thing may not be as fast as a hang glider, but it can carry multiple people at a time, and it is much more comfortable.

As long as you make a 50-meter-long airship, you can theoretically carry a ton of cargo into the sky.

While thinking about it, he came to the office. As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Zhengan couldn't wait to stand up and salute: "I have seen Her Royal Highness!"

"Excuse me!" Li Yuechen came to his chair with a smile and sat down, "Jiang Shishi is here, but do you have something to say?"

"Your Highness doesn't know something. Captain Lai arrested two people. Not only did he arrest them, but he also ransacked their homes..." Jiang Zhengan explained.

The hidden guards are also trained from the army, so they still like to use the "team" as a unit internally, and the person in charge of a certain aspect is generally called the captain.

After listening to his explanation, Li Yuechen probably understood.

To put it simply, after Lai Junchen's warning, there are still two merchants still secretly hoarding salt, and at the same time selling low-quality private salt to some villages outside Qingzhou City.

Because most of the refined salt produced this year has been transported to Dongdu, and there is not much left in Qingzhou. It was calculated by Li Yuechen, and it is almost enough for the local population to consume.

But because there are people hoarding salt, many people will not be able to buy it, so many people who wanted to wait and see before, but did not buy official salt in time, can no longer buy it now, and can only resign themselves to buying low-quality private salt mixed with sand. Salt.

Especially in some villages outside the city, the news was relatively closed. When the news was received, it was unknown how long the matter had passed.

Anyway, the salt that Li Yuechen sent over has been sold out, and most of them are in the hands of these merchants.

Some time ago, Li Yuechen asked Lai Junchen to warn him, but a few people gave up immediately, let the private salt at home rot at home, and don't expect to get back the money.

But the other two were still selling in Toutie, so they were arrested by Lai Junchen.

"Well, I heard the matter clearly, and then?" Li Yuechen picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"This...Your Highness, the two people arrested are the clans of Fan Yang's Lu family and Langya Wang's family. Besides, people from the Kong family came to me to inquire about the situation..." Jiang Zhengan replied cautiously.

"The Kong family?" Li Yuechen raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Zheng'an explained: "Your Highness, don't misunderstand, you are just asking about the situation. The companies related to the Kong family have already taken out all the refined salt they have collected..."

Hearing this answer, Li Yuechen was also slightly relieved.

She really didn't pay much attention to other big families, but the Kong family was different. After all, they were the descendants of Kong Shengren, and if they were not handled properly, it would easily trigger an explosion of public opinion across the country.

But fortunately, they were also sensible, knowing that it was not easy to participate in this matter, they immediately withdrew, so Li Yuechen didn't have to worry about them.

"Salt has been an official camp since ancient times. No one can touch this matter!" Li Yuechen replied, "What does Governor Jiang think?"

When she asked this sentence, she stared at him closely with her big black and bright eyes.

Jiang Zhengan, who originally wanted to say something nice, was slightly taken aback when he saw her calm eyes.

Those eyes are very clear, but also very firm, it seems to be a test for himself.

He was silent for two seconds, and then replied: "Since ancient times, salt has been a property of the government. The officials believe that it should be punished according to the law!"

"Well!"

Li Yuechen nodded: "Wuqiong, you will go back with Governor Jiang afterwards. Call Junchen to hand over the two to the governor's office to deal with!"

"Yes!" Wang Wuqiong agreed.

Jiang Zhengan was taken aback for a moment, it was obvious that the princess wanted to vote for him.He immediately got up and promised: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the subordinate will handle it well."

"Well, since Lian Zuo has been abolished, it is enough to punish the parties involved, and the property will be confiscated. Wife, concubine and children, after the investigation, those who are not involved can all be released without charge!" Li Yuechen put down his teacup and leaned on the back of the chair, "Yes Now, after Wu Qiongni passes by, tell Lai Junchen to ask him to get some green alum, raw vinegar and brass..."
