Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 169 Zilong Zilong is unparalleled in the world!
Standing outside the Zihuan Palace, Du Yunshan raised his head slightly and looked at the blue sky, feeling very good.

Two days ago, he received a letter from Chu Mo Juzi, his teacher Tian Weisheng.

The teacher said in the letter that after he learned that he was reused by the emperor, he felt quite happy and made an exception to eat a few more bites of meat and drink a few more glasses of wine.

He also said that Linjiang Prefecture, where Jiangnan Camp is located, has now opened Xinglin Yuan, and he plans to move there to recuperate when the summer heat comes.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will spend the last part of his life in Xinglinyuan.He also planned to compile what he had learned throughout his life into a book in his spare time and pass it on to future generations.

In addition, Tian Weisheng also said in the letter that he only left a few Mohist disciples to serve him, and the rest were sent to Shenjing City to join Du Yunshan, one to help him deal with some chores, and the other to broaden his horizons and expand the Mohist school. Influence in Shenjing City.

Du Yunshan is quite supportive of this matter.

Because in addition to being a minister of the Chu Kingdom, he was also a disciple of the Mohist family.

A hero has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes.

With the help of his fellow apprentices, he can quickly establish a foothold in Shenjing City.

He had a hunch that His Majesty valued the Mohist family far more than he imagined.Therefore, he must achieve results to prove that the Mohist family is worthy of His Majesty's trust and investment.

What's more, His Majesty will implement the imperial examination system early next year.

If I can make great contributions before then, perhaps Mohist disciples can also get a few qualifications to take the exam.

Just when Du Yuanshan was thinking wildly, a voice suddenly came to his ears.

"Master Du, Your Majesty summons you to the palace."

Du Yuanshan came back to his senses, looked at the tall and handsome waiter in front of him, and quickly raised his hands to express his gratitude.

"Thank you Gao Da Diao for the message."

Gao Lishi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. Du, you're welcome. This is our family's responsibility. It's better to enter the palace first. Don't keep your majesty waiting for too long."

Gao Lishi was already smart and astute. As Zhao Yu's personal servant, he could naturally see that Zhao Yu valued the Mohist disciples, so he was extremely precise in his approach to the other party, without putting on any airs, but not being too close.

He knew that His Majesty was his only supporter.

As long as he completes the tasks entrusted to him by His Majesty, does not interfere too much in government affairs, and does not get too close to courtiers, then no one can shake his status.

After all, His Majesty discovered and promoted him before he took power.

In terms of seniority, he is second only to Privy Wang and Commander Zhang.

"My lord, Du Yuanshan, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, is here to see your Majesty!"

After entering the Zihuan Hall, Du Yuanshan respectfully bowed to Zhao Yu.

"Get back on your feet," Zhao Yu, who was at the desk reviewing the memorial, raised his head, glanced at him, and told Gao Lishi, "Give Minister Du a seat and tea."

"Thank you Lord Ron."

Du Yuanshan took the tea and carefully placed half of his buttocks on the stool. He leaned forward slightly, waiting for Zhao Yu's inquiries at any time.

Putting down the ink pen, Zhao Yu asked with a smile:

"I heard from Du Qing that the telescope has been completed? Where is the sample? Let me take a look."

When Du Yuanshan heard this, he quickly took out a long tube-shaped thing from his sleeve, held it in both hands, and handed it to Gao Lishi who came to him.

Taking the telescope from Gao Lishi, Zhao Yu looked at it carefully.

I saw an emerald green bamboo tube with a polished lens on each side. It was the telescope that Zhao Yu asked Du Yuanshan to make.

The workmanship is quite rough.

Zhao Yu complained in his heart, and immediately took the telescope, walked to the window of Zihuan Palace, raised the telescope in front of his eyes, and looked into the distance.

Sure enough, five or six miles away, the figures of the guards patrolling back and forth on the palace wall were clearly visible.

"Lux, give it a try too."

Seeing Gao Lishi's curious expression, Zhao Yu casually handed over the telescope.

Gao Lishi took it carefully, put it in front of his eyes like Zhao Yu, and then looked into the distance.

"God, this, this!"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Gao Lishi was horrified, trembling all over, and almost threw the telescope in his hand.

"Your Majesty, this, this, what kind of ghostly thing is this? What is the scene that appears in front of my slave?"

Gao Lishi looked at Zhao Yu, his lips trembling, and he couldn't even speak clearly for a while.

Zhao Yu looked at Gao Lishi's extremely surprised look, shook his head in amusement, and explained casually:
"Look at what you look like as a slave. You're just magnifying the scenery in the distance several times."

Du Yuanshan on the side looked at Zhao Yu with admiration in his eyes.

"Your Majesty is indeed a holy king. When this thing was first created, I was shocked and only then did I slowly understand it."

Also, if Your Majesty didn't know the purpose of this thing, how could you let yourself create it?
Du Yuanshan thought this in his heart.

After hearing Zhao Yu's explanation, Gao Lishi reluctantly calmed down and bravely put his eyes in front of the telescope again to look into the distance.

This time, he was prepared and finally saw clearly that the scenery in the distance was nothing else but the walls of the Imperial City and the surrounding scenes.

With high military literacy, he immediately realized that if this so-called telescope was used in the army, it would give the Chu army a huge advantage in intelligence investigation.

"Your Majesty, if the generals find out about this telescope, they may break down the door of the Ministry of Industry."

Then he was shocked and said quickly:

"Your Majesty, this thing is valuable, especially in the military. Don't let other countries know how to make it!"

Gao Lishi had such an awareness, and it was not in vain that he had worked so hard to train him.

Zhao Yu nodded slightly and looked at Du Yunshan.

"As Gao Lishi said, this thing is valuable, and the relevant craftsmen must be in the hands of the imperial court."

Du Yuanshan quickly raised his hands and said:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have repeatedly warned you about this matter. These craftsmen are also our great people. They know the importance of this and will never leak the manufacturing method to others."

"Du Qing handled it very well." Zhao Yu praised him and then asked, "But, is it possible for this telescope to be mass-produced?"

Hearing Zhao Yu's question, Du Yuanshan showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said:

"Your Majesty, the lens barrel is easy, but the lens is quite troublesome to handle. Firstly, it is not easy to find a suitable lens. Secondly, it takes time to polish it into a finished product. If the craftsman is not careful, it is easy to lose all his efforts."

He originally thought that the telescope could be mass-produced when he presented the finished product to His Majesty, but he did not expect that he would fall short and was stumped in choosing the lenses.

"Take this matter slowly, don't be too anxious. For the time being, just make a batch for emergency use. Du Qing will urge the glass workshops under the Ministry of Industry to improve their production technology." Zhao Yu comforted him and then said, " However, there is still much room for improvement.”

"Please show your majesty."

Knowing that the young emperor in front of him should not be treated with common sense, Du Yunshan was extremely respectful.

"Du Qing also knows that after this telescope was manufactured, it was mostly used in the military. Therefore, I have some requirements for the barrel of this telescope. First, it can handle most weather, especially rain and snow; second, it can make observations. It can reach targets at different distances and accurately mark the distances so that the scouts can see it clearly at a glance; finally, it is just a single-tube sample. If the Ministry of Industry can manufacture binoculars in the future, that would be great."

Du Yunshan looked at Zhao Yu with eyes full of admiration.

He had no idea that His Majesty would make so many requests just for using the telescope for the first time.

He was only vaguely aware of the first one and felt that the bamboo lens tube was really difficult to handle. He had not thought of the last two at all. "I obey your Majesty's will!"

Seeing Du Yunshan's straightforward agreement, Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction.

This great disciple of the Mohist family seems to be a down-to-earth person who does practical things.

"Although I proposed this thing, Du Qing made it so quickly, which shows that he put a lot of thought into it. Gao Lishi, take out a cake of dragon and phoenix group tea and give it to Du Qing! As for participating in the production I will also ask the Ministry of Industry to reward the craftsmen of this item one by one."

As a tribute tea, the production of Longfeng Tuan Tea is rare, and even less leaves the imperial palace. It is hard to buy even a piece of it on the black market.

As far as he knew, since His Majesty ascended the throne, only Du Yu and Du Shenjun, who were still in the army, were rewarded with two cakes of dragon and phoenix tea by Your Majesty. Apart from that, no one else had received this honor, not even the King, who was close to Your Majesty. The Privy Council was among them.

This shows that His Majesty attaches great importance to himself and the Mohist family.

"My lord, thank you for your reward!"

As Du Yunshan said this, he stood up from the round stool and thanked you for your kindness.

"Du Qing, please be fine." Zhao Yu walked behind the desk, took out a stack of papers from the drawer, and motioned to Gao Lishi to hand them over to Du Yunshan.

"I need the Ministry of Industry to do three things. They are of great importance and you, Du Qing, will personally take charge of them."

Before Du Yunshan could speak, Zhao Yu said: "Part of these papers are the drawings of the Jiaowu Hall that I mentioned at the court meeting yesterday. The Ministry of Industry sent craftsmen to build the Jiaowu Hall according to the drawings before the imperial examination next year. , you can't cut corners at all. The other ones record the approximate distribution locations of various mineral deposits. Du Qing, please send trustworthy personnel to explore on the spot to see if there is any harvest. If so, report back to me as soon as possible. "

Looking at the mineral deposits marked on the map, Du Yunshan was slightly shocked.

Therefore, these deposits are extremely valuable gold, copper and iron ores.

After rolling the architectural drawings and the map with the mineral deposits into a tube and stuffing them into his sleeve, Du Yunshan solemnly replied: "I understand! I will personally keep an eye on what your Majesty ordered to avoid any mistakes."

The two tasks entrusted to me by His Majesty are of extraordinary weight. Only by personally looking at them can I feel more at ease.

"I can trust Du Qing's character. Neither of these two things can be accomplished overnight, just take your time."

These words were spoken to Du Yunshan, and even more so to Zhao Yu himself.

Because Zhao Yu originally wanted to hand over the engraving and printing technology to the other party together with the improved papermaking technology, but after thinking about it, he finally decided to do it step by step.

Sometimes, if you take too big a step, it’s easy to pull your balls.

These two technologies are his most powerful weapons to break the knowledge monopoly of the powerful families in Chu State. He must not let those powerful families notice any clues before launching.

However, before Du Yunshan left, Zhao Yu told him to use the Mo family's connections to find traces of the peasant disciples.

Agriculture is the basic industry of the country, especially in this world.This world of high martial arts is still a feudal world based on agriculture.

Therefore, farmers with rich practical experience and theory in agriculture entered Zhao Yu's vision.

Using the power of farmers to increase Chu's grain output and enhance Chu's national strength is an effective idea for Zhao Yu.

With the example of the grandfather who fed countless Chinese people in his previous life, Zhao Yu has full confidence in the farmers of this world.

He doesn't expect to increase production by more than a thousand kilograms per acre of land. As long as he can increase production by more than a hundred kilograms, he will wake up from his dreams with laughter when he sleeps.

As soon as Du Yunshan left, a servant came to report that Zong Ling Zhao Jian was outside the palace asking for an audience.

Zong Ling?

This is rare!
When Renzong's lineage was in power, these royal family members all behaved with their tails between their legs, and Zong Ling, the head of the royal family, had no influence at all in the court.They didn't feel much more relaxed until they fully grasped the power of the DPRK.

Zhao Yu looked out the window and saw that the sky was filled with sunset.

If you come to see me at this time, I am afraid that you have to go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, right?

Although Zhao Yu thought so in his heart, he said: "Hercules, please quickly invite Uncle Wang to enter the palace."

"Old minister, pay homage to Your Majesty."

Seeing that Zhao Zhang was about to salute him after entering the palace, Zhao Yu quickly asked Gao Lishi to support him and said with a smile:
"Uncle Wang, no courtesy. I am busy with government affairs, so I haven't seen Uncle Wang for a while. I wonder if Uncle Wang is still strong these days?"

Zhao Zhang saluted Zhao Yu, and then sat down on the stool with the help of Gao Lishi.

"Old minister, I thank your majesty for your concern. Thanks to your majesty, it seems that my body can last for a few more years before I can meet my ancestors."

Zhao Yu smiled and said:

"Uncle Wang is joking. Judging from his appearance, Uncle Wang will definitely live a long life. Maybe he can also see the scene when I, the great Chu, dominate the world."

"Then I will take advantage of His Majesty's good words and work hard to live until the day Your Majesty said. By then, even if you go to see your ancestors, you will have dignity."

After Zhao Zhang said this, the two of them laughed immediately.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Zhang finally asked tentatively:

"Old minister, I heard that His Majesty said in the morning meeting yesterday that he would issue an edict to recruit talents from all over the world?"

Zhao Yu nodded slightly and said, "That's what I meant."

Seeing Zhao Yu's confirmation, Zhao Zhang hesitated for a moment and then said tentatively: "Your Majesty, I have the effrontery to recommend a talented person to Your Majesty. What do you think of Your Majesty?"

"Oh?"

Zhao Yu glanced at Zhao Zhang, who was slightly nervous, and said with a hearty smile:

"Uncle Wang, just say so. If I want to wipe out the world and wipe out all the countries, I need to recruit the world's talents for my own use. If the people recommended by Uncle Wang are really talented, then I will use them according to their talents, so as not to let the pearls become dust. "

Seeing that Zhao Yu didn't seem to be faking it, Zhao Zhang felt slightly relieved, cleared his throat and said:

"In the past, when His Majesty Zhongzong was on the throne, Pingnan King Zhao You was his Majesty's confidant. He fought in the north and south, and made many military exploits. Because he was seriously injured in his early years, he never had any children. He did not have a son until he died in old age. He rebelled against the king. When Huang Jingming came to power, I was afraid that this son would be harmed by him, so I secretly sent him out of the sacred capital, where he studied literature and martial arts under a famous master. Now that he is an adult, he is proficient in martial arts and has great strategies. I would like to ask your majesty to summon this son. The son entered the court as an official and was restored to the title of King Pingnan."

With that said, Zhao Zhang stood up and bowed to the end.

When Zhao Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in deep thought:
"I heard the deeds of King Pingnan mentioned by my late father when I was young. He is one of the few people in the Zhao royal family who can command an army. But I didn't expect that King Pingnan still has an heir alive? Well, I will summon him now. Enter the court as an official and restore his royal title."

The royal family is also considered a considerable force, and it is worth spending some money to win over.

When Zhao Yu saw Zhao Yu nodding in agreement, he was overjoyed and said:

"Old minister, I would like to thank your majesty for your kindness on behalf of Zhao Yun, the son of Prince Ping Nan!"

At the same time, a row of small official script characters flashed before Zhao Yu's eyes.

[After the clan leader Zhao Zhang recommended King Pingnan to you: Zhao Yun, do you accept it? 】

Zhao Yun, courtesy name Zilong, was born in Zhending, Changshan, and was one of the Five Tigers of the Shu Han Dynasty.He is a man of majestic appearance and extraordinary bravery.He successively participated in the Battle of Bowangpo, the Battle of Changbanpo, and the Battle of Jiangnan. He personally commanded the Battle of Ruchuan, the Battle of Hanshui, and the Battle of Jigu, all of which achieved extraordinary successes.After his death, he was posthumously named "Shun Ping Hou", and his image as an "ever-victorious general" was widely circulated.

Zhao Yu was immediately surprised when he saw the introduction of Zhao Yun's attributes.

Is he really the Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong who said "the spearmen in the world are lucky enough to have eight fights, Zhao Zilong has one stone, and the rest owe two fights in total"?
Needless to say, I will definitely accept it!

At this moment, Zhao Yu really wanted to run up to Zhang Xiu and shout to him:
Youwei, your junior brother is here!
