The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 21 Bofei Zhongfei

Seeing my gloomy expression, Wen Tianxiang hurriedly interjected and asked, "Dongping, Peng Chong, does anyone else in the Gunpowder Department know this method?"

Chen Dongping shook his head and said, "Not anymore."

Peng Chong thought for a while and said: "No one in Huoqifang knows about it. The subordinates are dull and have not learned the skills of a master, but there is one person who should be able to."

As soon as I heard it, I suddenly felt that the rain had passed and the sky cleared again: "Oh, who is it?"

Peng Chong said: "Back to the emperor, the master has two sons. The second son, Yun Zhongfei, has been good at martial arts since he was a child. About six or seven years ago, he left home and went to Tianzhu Mountain in southern Anhui to learn martial arts from a monk. The capital is now one of the imperial guards. The eldest son, Yun Bofei, inherited his father's career. , Bofei went home to visit his relatives, but unexpectedly, there was a war in his hometown of Shouchun, and he was attacked by Mongols. After that, there was no news from him. The old master, after many twists and turns, failed to return to Shouchun. If Yun Bofei can be found, The subordinates feel that he will know."

I heard that there are traces to follow, and my mood improved greatly: "Bofei, Zhongfei? Alright, I'll send someone to look for it right away, Peng Chong, when I find Yun Bofei, I will give you a great credit."

Peng Chong was originally worried that I would blame him for his incompetence, but when he heard what I said, he was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Well, Guanshi Peng, get up, Xiaoqi."

"The little one is here."

"Go and call Shen Mo over."

Not long after, Shen Mo followed Xiao Qi into the room.

"Shen Mo, do you know Yun Zhongfei?"

"Back to the emperor, that Yun Zhongfei is the captain of another centurion under his command."

"Okay, after you go back, you bring him into the palace to meet me tomorrow afternoon."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"It's almost over, and the night has come, it's time to set off fireworks, Xiao Qi, you go with the manager of the fireworks workshop to get all kinds of fireworks."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Chen is in charge."

"The minister is here."

"How long have you been working in the Gunpowder Division?"

"Back to the emperor, I have been here for 20 years."

"Oh, you can be regarded as the old man of the Gunpowder Department. This gunpowder department will be very important in the future. In a few days, I will promote this gunpowder department to the gunpowder supervisor. You need to take good care of it and assist Mr. Wen with all your heart. It is related to the combat effectiveness of our Great Song soldiers, and we should not make mistakes easily. Once we find out that there is a phenomenon of shoddy, I will not spare you lightly."

Chen Dongping hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will assist Lord Wen and do my best for the Emperor."

I nodded and said, "Get up, and pay attention to the safety of the gunpowder department, so that there will be no more explosions."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The fireworks of this era are naturally far inferior to those of later generations, both in style and scale.

Wen Tianxiang and Yuan Ji guarded me closely, fearing that the fireworks would come, so the surrounding guards formed a big circle to watch the fireworks going off together.

The manager of the pyrotechnic workshop personally set off various types of fireworks for us.

"This is good."

"Ah, this one is better."

Everyone chattered and seemed very excited.

The burning gunpowder exudes a pungent smell of gunpowder, which is intertwined with the light of the fireworks, as if it is an early Chinese New Year.

"Fireworks, fireworks, when I successfully develop the firearm, it's time to really celebrate by setting off firearms."

"Your Majesty's long fist in the second quarter is already looking good. Back then, when I learned this set of boxing techniques, it took me a whole month to reach the level of Your Majesty. Your Majesty only took 26 days. It's really a genius. No wonder Lu My lord often says that Your Majesty is a man of God." Yuan Ji praised.

The second section of Taizu Changquan has far fewer moves than the first section, and more is the combined application of various moves in the first section. I don't know if it is because of time travel, or because my mind is more open than ordinary people. Feeling more relaxed in the second quarter.

Xiao Qi has a different opinion: "Officials, I think this second quarter is more difficult."

Yuan Ji said with a smile: "I remember my master Zeng Hechen said that this second boxing method is more about comprehension. There is a senior in the Emperor's Valley. It is said that it only took three days to master this boxing method."

Xiao Qi was surprised: "What, three days? That's still human."

While we were discussing, Eunuch Zhou, the deacon of Ninggan Palace, came in to report: "Officials, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, General Shen Mo, and the captain of the guards, Yun Zhongfei, are seeking an audience outside the palace."

This week, Eunuch Zhou is the close eunuch of Emperor Song Lizong, and has been serving as the chief deacon of Ninggan Palace. Like Li Eunuch, the chief deacon of Ningkun Palace, he can be regarded as the real power elder of the eunuchs in the palace.After I moved to Ninggan Palace, except for the staff of the Prince's Palace, I also kept all the original staff, and Eunuch Zhou still let him serve as the chief deacon.

"Xuan, let the two of them meet me in the martial arts hall."

"Yes, official, the old slave is retiring."

After Zhou Gonggong left, Yuan Ji narrated the second verse of Taizu Changquan. I gradually understood the essence of this set of boxing techniques, which is not sticking to old patterns. When your opponent can't figure out your routine, You can beat your opponent by surprise.

This is true of martial arts, isn't it also true of politics?

Yun Zhongfei was very young, he didn't seem to be in his twenties, but he was thick-backed and had a heroic look on his face.

I was eager to know about Yun Bofei's situation, so without waiting for him to salute, I said directly: "Yun Zhongfei, I called you here to know about your elder brother Yun Bofei's situation."

Yun Zhongfei knocked his head three times, got up and said: "Return to the emperor, my subordinate left home to study art at Tianzhu Mountain six years ago, and came to the capital directly after going down the mountain last year. Originally, I wanted to reunite with my father and elder brother." , but did not talk about the death of his father. After his eldest brother returned home, there was no news. Later, under the recommendation of senior brother Peng Chong, he joined the Imperial Guard. The subordinates planned to go home to look for his brother when they were on vacation at the end of the year. Although Shouchun City is occupied by Mongolia today , but the subordinates expected that after the eldest brother returned, he would probably stay in the old house in the country. The old house of the subordinates is located in a mountainous area south of Shouchun, and there is still a long distance from Shouchun City. It is very remote. There have been wars all the time, but the subordinates believe that the old house is still safe, but the elder brother is afraid that the traffic will be blocked, and he may not be able to return to Beijing."

"So, your elder brother should be fine?"

"Exactly."

"Okay, that's great." I laughed and said, "Yun Zhongfei, go down and get ready. Tomorrow I will arrange for General Shen Mo to notify you to leave for Shouchun. Be sure to find and bring your eldest brother with you." Back in Lin'an, the Firearms Workshop cannot do without your eldest brother. This matter needs to be kept secret, and no one should be told, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law."

"My subordinate obeys the order." Yun Zhongfei wondered in his heart, didn't he just bring his eldest brother back to Lin'an, and it still needs to be so secret, and it even involves military law?

Yuan Ji and Shen Mo probably had the same thoughts. Is this Yun Bofei so important?

Once the musket can be applied to actual combat, then I will not be afraid of the invincible Mongolian cavalry, but if I tell Yuan Ji and others at this time, no one will believe it.

"Sir, the Shouchun area is in chaos. You will know the importance of Yun Bofei in the future. I am determined to win him. The dragon tooth has not yet formed, and there is no one to send. I just thought about it and wanted to let Lan Yu Shen Mo and two lead ten imperial guards to accompany Yun Zhongfei to Shouchun, what do you think, sir?"

Yuan Ji thought about it: "Your Majesty is right. Since Shouchun is a war zone, it would be inconvenient if there were too many people there. Although Yun Zhongfei is not as good as Lan Yu and Shen Mo, his own martial arts are not weak. There are enough people, I think there is no need to bring ten more guards, three people in a party, the target is smaller, the concealment is also strong, and it is only in the process of advancing and retreating freely."

"Well, according to my master's opinion, let the three of them secretly go to Shouchun early tomorrow morning. In the future, these things will need to be completed jointly by the Intelligence Department of the Longya Security Department."

"The minister leads the decree. When this matter is settled, is it feasible for the minister to introduce Lan and Chen to Longya?"

"As long as the two of them are willing to fight for the rise of our Great Song Dynasty, I will welcome them."

"The minister first thanked His Majesty on behalf of the young disciple."

"You don't need to thank me, I still want to thank you sir for recruiting talents for me." I smiled and said, "Sir, Xiaoqi, follow me back to the imperial study. It should be the time for Song Rui and Junshi to come to the palace to give lectures." gone."
