This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 535 Volume Five Is All For Slapping Face
As the marching chief of Taohe County, Yuchi Jingde was still very responsible.

No matter how much he disagrees with Changsun Wuji, he has no complaints about Li Er's arrangement.

The reason why he came without making a sound was because he wanted to keep an eye on his eldest grandson Wuji for Li Er.

Don't forget, this guy also has a good habit of telling people's short stories.

As long as he catches someone else's fault, this guy will point it out mercilessly, and it is this good habit that makes the relationship between Yuchi Jingde, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others so 'good'...

"Taohe firm? Workshop?" Yuchi Jingde said with a smile after hearing the recent situation in Taohe County from the soldiers who came to inquire about the news, "Changsun Wuji, this old fox, really can do it!"

Although he is a warrior, he is not a reckless man.

Apart from taking credit for his pride and exposing others' faults, he is still very clear-headed politically.

Don't believe it, such a thing happened in the original history. It was said that Li Er and Tang Jian were playing chess, and they had an argument. Li Er was furious immediately and sent Tang Jian to Tanzhou.

Unexpectedly, even so, Li Er was still angry, and said to Yuchi Jingde who was present at the time: "Tang Jian despises me, and I want to kill him, so you come to testify for me, saying that his words offended me. "

When Yuchi Jingde saw Li Er's fury, he knew that his narrow-mindedness had started again, so he immediately agreed.

But the next day when Li Er brought up the matter again, Yuchi Jingde kowtowed and said, "I really haven't heard of it."

Li Er repeatedly questioned, but Yuchi Jingde still did not change his statement.

This made Li Er furious and smashed all the jade stiles on the ground, but all the officials at the court meeting were there, and Li Er could not punish Yuchi Jingde for this, so he had to walk away.

In the end, after Li Er's anger dissipated, the matter was over, Tang Jian did not die in vain, and Yuchi Jingde was even rewarded for it.

It can be seen from this that although Yuchi Jingde is a warrior, he is not a reckless man.

So at this moment, when he heard what the soldiers under his command said, he immediately understood Changsun Wuji's plan.

In this regard, he is not surprised. From their standpoint, there is only one person they are loyal to.

"General, should we send someone to inform the sheriff's mansion now?" said the soldier, "After all, we have already arrived, and we are about to take over the barracks..."

Yuchi Jingde heard the words and said with a smile: "You think that old fox Changsun Wuji doesn't know that the old man is here? Just wait, before tomorrow, that old fox will definitely come to visit in person."

Speaking of this, Yuchi Jingde shook his head and sighed, "I just obey them, obviously hate you for not dying, but before killing you, etiquette is not bad at all.

It feels like he is standing in front of you, persuading you affectionately, please go on the road.

Hypocrisy, what a fucking hypocrisy! "

Although he said so, Yuchi Jingde knew that this was the gap between himself and Changsun Wuji and others.

And at the county guard's mansion, Changsun Wuji was chatting with Changsun Fu about Yuchi Jingde.

Not to mention, Yuchi Jingde guessed right, Changsun Wuji got the news that he had arrived before he set up camp.

"Lang Jun, what is the meaning of Wu Guogong's move?" Changsun Fu asked.

Changsun Wuji shook his head disdainfully, and said: "This old man can have any deep meaning, but he just wants to catch the old man's mistakes."

"It's really abominable!" Changsun Fu heard the words and said, "Thinking of him as a dignified Duke of Wu, but relying on his own trivial merits to expose the shortcomings of others everywhere, how can he have the demeanor of a Duke?"

Hearing what he said, Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "Then you are wrong, even if you are an old man, you cannot deny his merits of Yuchi Jingde.

Whether it was the founding of the Tang Dynasty or the ascension of His Majesty to the throne, Yuchi Jingde has made great military exploits. No one can deny this.

And the reason why he takes credit for himself and exposes people's shortcomings everywhere is also a means for him to protect himself.

In the final analysis, he has contributed too much. If he is friendly with all the officials again, what do you make His Majesty think?
This old man did it on purpose. "

Speaking of this, Changsun Wuji smiled contentedly, "That's fine, the old man also needs such an opponent, whether it's for him or the old man, it's a good thing.

Arrange it, and tomorrow the old man will personally welcome him to take office. "

The two of them were not enemies, not even political enemies.

But the tacit understanding between each other is really nothing to say.

As for why he didn't tell everyone that Yuchi Jingde had arrived at today's banquet, naturally he also has deep meaning.

Early the next morning, Changsun Wuji left for the place where Yuchi Jingde temporarily camped outside the city.

"The general is really right." When Yuchi Jingde's soldiers saw Changsun Wuji coming, they also worshiped Yuchi Jingde very much.

After greeting the eldest grandson Wuji, he turned around and informed Yuchi Jingde.

"He came here in disguise?" Yuchi Jingde said with a smile.

"How did the general know?" The guard was taken aback for a moment, wondering why he didn't see Changsun Wuji's guard of honor.

Yuchi Jingde also thought about it last night, and immediately said: "This old fox, it seems that he has come to spy on the old man, let's go, lead the way."

When Changsun Wuji saw Yuchi Jingde, he smiled happily and said, "Brother Jingde is leaving for a long distance, why didn't I inform the old man in advance, so that the old man can clean up the dust for brother Jingde?"

Hearing Changsun Wuji's hypocritical words, Yuchi Jingde endured his nausea and said, "How dare I trouble the auxiliary machine brother? Didn't you come here in a hurry just after Xue Yantuo's battle? After all, it took so long, old man I'm also afraid of failing His Majesty's entrustment."

Although secretly, Yuchi Jingde despises this kind of behavior in person, but this is the case in the officialdom. At that moment, Yuchi Jingde invited his eldest grandson Wuji to his central army tent, and said with a smile: "Yesterday The old man came in a hurry, but he missed entering the city, so he could only camp outside the city, making the auxiliary machine brother laugh."

"Where is it?" Changsun Wuji said, "Brother Jingde travels day and night, and arrives in the starry night, he should be our role model."

After complimenting each other a few words, Changsun Wuji got straight to the point.

"By the way, Brother Jingde should also know about the current situation in Water River County, right?"

Regarding this point, Changsun Wuji had no doubts.

Yuchi Jingde didn't hide it, and said in a low voice: "I understand a little bit. Speaking of it, the auxiliary machine brother is slacking off. Now that it's spring, the old man walked all the way, but he didn't see the officials from all over the country to supervise the farming. As a member of Water River County How could the little brother of the county guard auxiliary machine make such a mistake? Didn’t he fail His Majesty’s entrustment?”

Since the eldest grandson Wuji is willing to be called a brother, Yuchi Jingde doesn't mind relying on the old to sell the old.

But what he said didn't make much difference to Changsun Wuji.

This guy, it's not a day or two since he likes to expose people's mistakes.

Immediately, Changsun Wuji said: "Brother Jingde is right, but Brother Jingde doesn't know the real situation of Piaohe County. Piaohe County is already barren. If we rely solely on..."

As he said that, Changsun Wuji really gave a detailed introduction to the various situations in Piaohe County.

Yuchi Jingde nodded when he heard the words, and said: "It's not easy for the auxiliary machine brother. Indeed, if this Water River County doesn't find another way, it's really hard to do anything. It's just a villain's heart."

"Where is it? Brother Jingde is also worried about the people of Piaohe County." Changsun Wuji said, "By the way, what does Brother Jingde think about the opening of the Taohe business?"

This is the purpose of his visit this time. Although he can guess Yuchi Jingde's attitude, he still needs to confirm it himself.

Yuchi Jingde pretended to think about it seriously, and said after a long while: "It is indeed a direction, but the auxiliary machine brother also knows that the old man is a warrior and has no experience in governing the party, and the old man sent by His Majesty is only to deal with the situation in the army. It’s just things, I dare not overstep my authority.”

Changsun Wuji just listened to Yuchi Jingde's words.

Don't dare to exceed your authority, what do you mean the old man is slack?

"Brother Jingde is modest." Changsun Wuji laughed, "But the opening of the Taohe business this time has affected Daming's interests after all. I am also worried that Daming will be unwilling. Brother Jingde must have heard about Chang'an Yinfu. Tragedy, right?"

Although he didn't say it clearly, he pointed his finger at Daming.

Yuchi Jingde still didn't understand, and immediately said: "If it's a commercial competition, then of course I can't do it. But if you want to use knives and guns, don't worry, the auxiliary machine brother, as the marching officer of Taohe County, I will definitely not Allow anyone to offend my Tang Dynasty."

Hearing what Yuchi Jingde said, Changsun Wuji immediately felt relieved, this was Yuchi Jingde's attitude.

……

On the other side, Riyue Mountain and Daming Palace.

Li Chengqian was on his way to the general prison when he saw Wu An running over in a hurry.

Seeing that it was him, Li Chengqian stopped and waited for a while, because this guy usually wouldn't come to him for nothing important.

"Your Highness, there is news from Taohe County." Wu An hurriedly said as soon as he ran over, "Duke Qi hosted a banquet for officials from the two prefectures at Changming Restaurant yesterday, and decided..."

Since Changsun Wuji was discussing this matter at Changming Restaurant, he actually didn't intend to hide it from Li Chengqian, and the news reached Li Chengqian's ears in an instant, just as he expected.

After hearing Wu An's words, Li Chengqian was a little surprised: "The action is fast enough."

"Your Highness, Qi Guogong's move may have a huge impact on my workshop in Daming." Wu An said with some concern.

Now Daming's greatest income comes from the many workshops, but Changsun Wuji is now setting up a Taohe business in Taoyuan, isn't it just a businessman who is clearly intercepting Hu Daming?

From Daming's standpoint, Changsun Wuji's move is undoubtedly courting death!
"It doesn't matter." Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Since the Tang Dynasty has begun, then this king can't slack off."

As for Changsun Wuji's plan, he could roughly guess something.

But it doesn't matter, he was the one who deliberately contributed to the flames. If he hadn't contributed to the flames, would Xu Jingzong have poached so many craftsmen from the Six Cities of the Grassland?

"Go and do your work." Li Chengqian said to Wu An again, "This king has his own arrangements for this matter."

Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't take it seriously, Wu An also resigned.

The blind trust in Li Chengqian made him firmly believe that Li Chengqian must have his back hand, and some of those craftsmen were arranged by him.

After Wu An left, Li Chengqian smiled.

"Three days later? Taohe company? Treaty port? The appetite is not small."

Thinking in this way, Li Chengqian turned around and walked towards the general supervisor.

When he arrives as a prisoner, Zhang Erniu, Fang Tiejiang and others are already ready.

"Your Highness, please move to the backyard." As soon as he saw Li Chengqian, Zhang Erniu hurried over.

Since Li Chengqian handed over the matter of gunpowder to them, and with Li Chengqian's rough insights, let alone, they really made gunpowder.

If you really want to say, it is not difficult to make gunpowder.

Even without them, Li Chengqian would be able to figure it out by himself.

It's just that Li Chengqian didn't think of getting this thing out so early before, but now that Chang'an has come to the front, Li Chengqian has no choice but to put gunpowder on the agenda.

Today, he just learned that Zhang Erniu and the others had achieved results, to see the results of the experiment.

Seeing Zhang Erniu's and others' dark appearance, Li Chengqian patted his shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work." Zhang Erniu said, "It's the blessing of Weichen and others to be able to share worries for His Highness and Daming."

For Li Chengqian, Zhang Erniu was really grateful from the bottom of his heart.

If it wasn't for Li Chengqian, he would still be a craftsman in Jingyang City who couldn't eat enough, but now, after a sudden change, he is also an official.

And the daughter he missed has not only become a noble daughter, but also keeps company with the princess all day long. He thinks he will be able to find a good husband's family in the future.

And all of this was brought by Li Chengqian.

So he was really grateful to Li Chengqian.

"Okay, go to the backyard and have a look." Li Chengqian nodded immediately.

The backyard of the general supervisor is naturally not an ordinary backyard, because many things developed by the general supervisor are tested in the backyard, so the backyard is larger than the general martial arts arena.

"Your Highness, do you want to start now?" Zhang Erniu asked.

Li Chengqian nodded.

Seeing this, Zhang Er Niu made a move, and immediately one of them ran out.

About fifty paces away, several people were busy doing something. At this moment, Li Chengqian frowned and said, "Stop."

"What's the matter, Your Highness?" Zhang Erniu was curious.

Li Chengqian said: "Is this how you usually experiment?"

Zhang Erniu nodded blankly.

"You don't know how dangerous this thing is?" Li Chengqian was also speechless.

This is fucking gunpowder!
Although I can't see clearly, it's okay for the people present to have no defense at all. You have to prepare a trench bunker or something, right?Even digging a hole for an experiment is better than this, isn't it?

"Your Highness doesn't know something." Zhang Erniu said, "Although this thing is dangerous, if you don't have an intuitive feeling, it will take some time to study, but don't worry, Your Highness, the tests are usually done by humble ministers and generals. I did it myself, and now that the gunpowder has stabilized, I let them do it."

What kind of shit theory is this?
Li Chengqian was speechless.

He actually understood, that is, Zhang Erniu's ability to express is not enough, but after hearing what Zhang Erniu said, he no longer had the intention to reprimand Zhang Erniu.

He just patted him on the shoulder and said, "Be careful in the future. Compared with the research results, I would rather see you are still alive."

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Zhang Erniu felt warm in his heart. He would really die if he followed Li Chengqian like this.

Without stopping the test, Zhang Erniu gave an order, and after a while, the explosion sounded.

For a moment, the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke left after the explosion of gunpowder, Li Chengqian shrugged his nose, and subconsciously said: "It's still the same smell... yes, the prisoner will make another contribution this time!
But in the future, when doing this kind of dangerous experiment again, remember to put human life first!
By the way, this king has something else to tell you, so please listen to me. "

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Zhang Erniu immediately said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will leave now, and the task will be completed!"

"Yeah." Li Chengqian smiled, "At that time, I want to see who hits whose face!"
