Liao Zhai Zi is silent

Chapter 251
On the thirteenth day of the eighth month, Emperor Qian Yong pardoned the whole world, except for the ten heinous crimes, and went home with amnesty.

Those who beheaded will be exiled, those who are exiled will be replaced by tattoos, and those who have tattoos will be exempted from punishment.

The whole city has already arranged red lanterns in advance.

The emperor has been on the throne for 50 years. Which dynasty is as rich and stable as our Daman?
The stage of the big theater was beating, and the people who watched the theater didn't know how much it was.

Among them, there are many centenarians, trembling at this moment, a group of eunuchs are lecturing, teaching the rules of banquets in the palace.

"When you see the Long Live Lord, you must first kneel down, kowtow, and shout Long Live, understand?"

The boa-robed eunuch mingled into the group of old people at this time, and said with a grand old look: "During the Kangma years, I have participated in the Banquet of Thousands of Seniors!"

The eunuch heard: "Oh? There is also a former court elder!"

But he is very respectful: "This banquet is held in Qianqing Palace, which is different from last time. My father-in-law has a long life, so it is inevitable that he will not remember the rules. Let me say it again, just listen to it."

However, what they were talking about were some ritual rituals. The boa-robed eunuch sneered: "The dog emperor really wants to prolong his life. I'm afraid these old men will be taken away by Yan Luo's name. Thank you for the emperor's kindness!"

……

And in the city, Princess Kunxing, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, Chu Yahong, and the leader of Tianli Sect, Chen, have secretly assembled congregants in the east, south, and north of the city.

Lin Zhuming nailed the nails into an old pagoda tree at the gate of Shuide Xingjun Temple.

I only feel a slight cool breeze blowing, and the "solar lock" arranged by the door nails has been formed.

This array has no other purpose, it is to lock the "water vapor" and "cold evil energy", which can turn water into wealth.

But it includes the Dragon King Temple, Zhenwu Temple, and Shuide Xingjun Temple.

This formation is not sinister and evil, and can even protect the surrounding people from the impact of fire.

And what about Yandan?At this time, he had arrived in the firearms camp.

The officers in the firearms battalion also received rewards at this time. After all, the whole world celebrated together, and the emperor ordered the people to drink alcohol. You know, alcohol was banned before, because alcohol needs grain to brew.

Even the officers, to be honest, didn't have much to drink.

At this time, in the firearms camp, several smokehouses were filled with smoke.

This is the opium hall opened by Song Laosan's family. When Qian Yong went to the south of the Yangtze River, he passed by the surrounding villages, and met Song Laosan, and promised Song Laosan to have dinner with the whole village.

But Song Laosan thinks that the whole village eats a feast.

Later, when the emperor returned to Beijing and specially rewarded him, he realized that it was the emperor who was chatting with him.

So happy, the family moved to the capital and settled in Huoqiying.

By the way, he started the opium business, opium, or longevity ointment, originally a traditional Chinese medicine in the Central Plains, used to treat diseases, spread to the West, and turned into a high-quality spice that the rich and powerful smoked, widely planted and sold back to China.

At this time, the high-ranking officials in the capital also have the habit of taking this stuff, especially the civil servants. It is said that they are sleepy when they are approving official documents.

When high-ranking officials smoke opium, the people below will naturally smoke too, which is considered a cultural trend.

However, the smoky atmosphere polluted the temple of Emperor Zhenwu, which was originally used to suppress the fire in the firearms camp.

Yan Dan originally thought it would take some effort to get into it, but how could he know that the defense is so lax.

He went directly to the arsenal, and saw that the arsenal was actually empty, several of them were empty, and he had Liu Ding Liujia with him, and he had to move them first, but there was nothing to move.

It turns out that the weapons in this arsenal have been stolen by guards and sold for a lot of money, and only a few are left. The targets are too big, such as the Shenwei General Cannon, but they are also rusty.

Yandan searched a few more places, all of which were eating parties, so she had to go to the warehouse of raw materials.

Seeing all kinds of hardware for casting weapons, I was overjoyed: "It's suitable for me to make swords."

Seeing three flying swords flying out, the essence of the hardware was extracted from them and merged into the sword body, the sword body became brighter and brighter, Yan Dan also felt like a fish in water.

It's just that those metal utensils are rusting one after another, or turning into crisp powder.

Yan Dan is very satisfied.

Then I visited the warehouses of gunpowder, kerosene, realgar, cinnabar, etc.

None of them are manned.

Immediately hide the wooden talisman with the name of Liuding Liujia in it, and wait for the night to start setting fire.

After finishing these things, go to the forging craftsman camp.

There are only various craftsmen who are still making iron and soldiers at this time, but there are not many of these craftsmen.

Yan Dan read slightly: "Brother Lin asked me to evacuate people as much as possible, especially these craftsmen, I need to tell them to leave."

So he cast a spell and made a blindfold: "Today, His Majesty the Emperor pardoned the world. He has ascended the throne for [-] years, and the whole world celebrates it. You are allowed to repair your home for seven days, so you can go home and visit your relatives."

"Huh? Holiday?" The craftsmen regained their spirits, put down the hammers in their hands, and started running outside.

Yan Dan nodded slightly, and said in his heart: "This can be regarded as the completion of merit and virtue, and then go to find the blueprints of military aircraft, as well as newly-made firearms that have not yet been put into storage..."

After searching several workshops, some firearms were finally stolen, but there were no complete drawings of the firearms, only drawings of parts and components, and there were even foreigners making drawings inside, which looked like a missionary.

Think of Lin Zhuming's words: "If you meet a missionary, try to make him believe, betray Jesus, and acquire Western knowledge..."

Walking behind quietly, with a knife in his hand, he knocked the foreigner until he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Yan Dan took out a few paper figurines, and when he landed, he turned into a strongman, lifted the foreigner up, and then stopped on the spot and suddenly disappeared.

In fact, it is not disappearing, but the "passage of the underworld", not the road to the world.

This talisman was given to him by Lin Zhuoming, and it is the secret method of the "Paper Man of Taiyin" that he has comprehended.

Seeing that everything was prepared and nothing was missed, Yan Dan left the firearm camp.

Waiting for dusk, a group of old people dressed in auspicious clothes followed the eunuchs and officials into the Forty-Nine City, inside the palace.

A large number of forbidden troops began to come out from the dark, patrolling the city, streets, and alleys.

Officials from all walks of life pulled the presented congratulatory gifts in carriages.

In the palace, all the officials have already begun to present gifts.

He Geng laughed, he was Qian Yong's money pocket, and the treasury saved by Yongzheng had basically been defeated by Qian Yong.

This person is a great success, and there are a lot of places to spend money. Now, on the 50th anniversary of his ascension to the throne, if he can receive some money from civil and military officials to fill the treasury, it will also make up for a little shortfall.

"Ji Xiaolan, Bachelor of Ji University, a present, some ginger."

He Shen squinted his eyes when he listened to Jin Yinyu, feeling very comfortable.

But after hearing some ginger, he still couldn't help it.

"Mr. Ji Da, today is the big day of the Long Live Lord. Even if you want to fight for fame and earn the title of an upright official, you should change the timing and send ginger to the Long Live Lord. Aren't you afraid of killing your head?"

"What? Are you shivering? Now rice costs 81 dou, ginger 12 taels of silver a dendrobium, and only rich families can afford it. Here is a bucket, why is it so shabby?"
