Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Chapter 181 Cui Yuan’s conditions and Zhu Yuanzhang’s hesitation

The walls of the Yingtian Mansion Forbidden City fell into a dead silence.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the young man, trying to see any flaw in his face.

But Cui Yuan's expression was calm, calm and confident from beginning to end, even when he said that he came from seven hundred years in the future. There are no fluctuations.

There are only two possible outcomes for such an attitude.

Either this young man is so good at lying that he can even deceive himself.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang never imagined that his purpose of deceiving him was that he couldn't possibly want to be an official in the court and seek glory and wealth, so he came here to show off his talents and methods to him, right?

Whenever this thought occurs for a second, Zhu Yuanzhang feels it is an insult to his own intelligence.

Glory and wealth are difficult for ordinary people to obtain, but for a god like this, it is simply a piece of cake!

So there can only be another result. This boy does not...

Zhu Yuanzhang instinctively did not dare to think deeply because it would involve his wife and daughter, but he was already [-]% certain in his heart.

"You are really amazing. What is your name?"

Zhu Yuanzhang praised the young man and took the initiative to ask his name.

This was the first time since the two people had confronted each other. Before, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care at all about Cui Yuan's identity.

Chen Qing, Mao Xiang and even Hu Weiyong did not notice the strangeness in this inquiry. Although they were shocked, they just thought it was Zhu Yuanzhang's ordinary inquiry. After all, the young man's performance was indeed very impressive.

Only Li Shimin understood part of it and admired Cui Yuan even more.

Cui Yuan's plan was very successful from all angles!

Take it step by step and fight steadily!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not admit it verbally, he believed everything Cui Yuan said in his heart.

"My surname is Cui Mingyuan."

"Your Majesty, you can just call me Cui Yuan, or you can call me King Qin, it doesn't matter."

"King Qin?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and continued: "Who gave you this title?"

The King of Qin was the title given to his second son Zhu Ping in the Ming Dynasty. The Cui Yuan in front of him was also the King of Qin?

"It was given by His Majesty the First Emperor."

Cui Yuan gave the answer, causing Zhu Yuanzhang's pupils to shrink slightly again.

There are many emperors in history, but there is only one First Emperor - Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng!

Cui Yuan is actually the King of Qin conferred by Qin Shihuang?

Could it be that he is an immortal in heaven who has lived from the Qin Dynasty to the present? But why is he so young?

Zhu Yuanzhang was full of confusion, but he still suppressed his curiosity and did not continue to ask about this issue.

A god like Cui Yuan must have a lot of secrets in his body. What he wants to do now is not to get to the bottom of things, but to directly ask for the key information.

"Then what is your purpose of coming to me?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were solemn.

"It serves two purposes!"

As Cui Yuan spoke, he took out a fire gun with a barrel bent into a twist shape from his waist. This was his trophy just now.

"The first one is to get the design drawings of all types of Ming Dynasty firearms and the complete set of Ming Dynasty iron-making technology!"

"In exchange, I can truthfully answer your Majesty's question about the future."

These are the most important things for Da Qin at this stage and can trigger a revolution in firearms technology!

Although Cui Yuan has an outstanding memory, he can remember all the books he read before time travel, even if he only read them once, his comprehension and understanding abilities are top-notch.

However, there are still many documents that he has never read. After all, before time travel, he was just a high school student who loved online literature.

Even if his historical knowledge is far superior to that of his peers, it is absolutely impossible to reach the level of an expert.

He has never read a lot of relevant knowledge, not to mention that there is a lot of information that has long been lost and scattered in the flames of war, and has not been passed down to future generations at all.

"There is no problem with this condition, but one is too few. Let's change it to three!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and agreed to the request without any hesitation, but began to bargain.

He was not worried at all that Cui Yuan would be detrimental to Ming Dynasty after obtaining these technologies.

The large-scale manufacture of firearms required vast quantities of minerals, all of which were now under the control of the imperial court.

It can be said that in this era, except for the imperial court, no other power, not even the major families of heroes, had the ability to independently manufacture firearms on a large scale.

And even if he didn't agree, with Cui Yuan's strength, couldn't he just grab it?

Cui Yuan is a person who understands etiquette and agreed to this condition without hesitation: "Then it will be three according to His Majesty's wishes."

For him, it is not difficult to talk about a few things in the future. The only thing he needs to worry about is whether Zhu Yuanzhang can withstand the excitement.

After all, there was a lot of fun happening in Ming Dynasty, and each one of them could challenge the limit of human endurance.

"Next comes the second condition."

"I want your majesty to give me a special trade license to do business with Ming Dynasty at the national level. Of course, I will not pay a penny less in terms of taxes."

Once the large-scale production of colored glaze is realized, as long as the operation is good, it can definitely generate a hundred times or even a thousand times profit.

At that point, a little tax won’t mean anything at all.

And because previous dynasties did not pay much attention to business, the business tax of the Ming Dynasty itself was also very low.

"As for the conditions of exchange, I can try my best to fulfill one of His Majesty's requirements."

"Of course, the premise is reasonable requirements."

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered, but did not agree immediately as before.

After thinking for a moment, he replied: "I can't agree to this condition immediately. I need to discuss it with the ministers for a few days."

"You should wait in Yingtian Mansion these days. I will tell you if there is any news."

If an ordinary person proposed this condition, Zhu Yuanzhang would not think too much.

But now that this condition was proposed by Cui Yuan, we have to think deeply about it.

For a man of God like Cui Yuan to actually want to do business, he must have other plans and must think clearly.

"no problem!"

Cui Yuan is still confident and has no worries that Zhu Yuanzhang will refuse.

After that, he left with Li Shimin and Chen Qing on his own.

He and Zhu Yuanzhang did not have any agreed contact information because it was completely unnecessary.

As long as he didn't leave Yingtian Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely have a way to find him.

The same goes for Cui Yuan.

As long as Cui Yuan wants to find Zhu Yuanzhang, he only needs to make a little noise, and Zhu Yuanzhang will naturally appear.

His first official meeting with Zhu Yuanzhang ended amidst all kinds of temptations and surprises.

When walking down, not to mention Chen Qing who was dumbfounded throughout the whole process, even Li Shimin, who had experienced many storms, felt that he had an eye-opening feeling. He thought that bringing Cui Yuan to Daming and meeting Zhu Yuanzhang would make things smoother, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth!

The equipment I prepared for my safety from beginning to end has no effect except adding weight and losing weight!

Let alone fighting, the weapons on Li Shimin were not stained with even a drop of blood.

too exaggerated!

At this moment, Li Shimin even had the idea of ​​​​cultivating his moral character, giving up everything, and wholeheartedly following Cui Yuan to learn Taoism.

Cui Yuan didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking, and even if he knew, he would just roll his eyes.

All of his abilities were acquired from the dog system. If he were to teach others, he really wouldn't be able to.

It’s impossible to find another dog system and let Li Shimin cheat it, right?

It seemed that Zhu Yuanzhang had given some order. The three of them got off the palace wall without any obstruction, arrived on the streets of Yingtian Mansion smoothly, and found an inn to stay.

They did not have Ming Dynasty coins, but they carried enough gold and silver. They were absolute hard currency in any era.

In the Tianzihao room of the inn, Li Shimin looked out the window and curiously looked at the bustle in the backstreet of the inn.

It was different from the surrounding Hu Mansion, which was heavily surrounded and tense.

At this moment, other places in Yingtian Mansion are still immersed in a joyful atmosphere, with all kinds of red lanterns hanging everywhere.

"What holiday is today? Why are so many people celebrating here?"

Li Shimin asked, and Chen Qing also clearly stated his position as a tour guide, and answered truthfully without any concealment: "It is the sixth day of the first lunar month, and Yingtian Mansion should still be celebrating the New Year."

The Lunar New Year is supposed to end on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but it is only half way through now.

"It's still New Year's Day?"

"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was so ruthless that he actually killed the prime minister on such a festive day."

Li Shimin was very emotional. When he heard Cui Yuan say that Zhu Yuanzhang was a cruel and majestic emperor, he didn't think anything of it, and it was the same when he saw him destroy Hu Weiyong's entire family.

It is normal for an emperor to kill people. If you don't kill some people, others may think you are easy to bully.

I never expected that Zhu Yuanzhang would kill during the Chinese New Year!

No wonder when he went up, Hu Weiyong's eyes were filled with fear and reluctance. I'm afraid even he didn't expect that his home would be confiscated and his family exterminated during the Chinese New Year.

"It's really amazing!"

Li Shimin lamented that Chen Qing didn't dare to say anything at all.

"Chen Qing, take us to see Yingtian Mansion."

Cui Yuan knew that today was the Spring Festival, so he also wanted to have fun.

It's rare to encounter such a festive day, how can you not go shopping?

And he also has another purpose, which is to find the system mission for his time travel.

The mission of the Han Dynasty is to end the siege of Baideng, and the mission of the Tang Dynasty is to suppress the five surnames and Qi Wang and eliminate natural disasters.

As for Daming's mission, Cui Yuan still knew nothing about it.

According to the urinary nature of the dog system virus, it will probably not tell itself, and it can only explore step by step.

"Ah? Aren't we here waiting for His Majesty's will?"

Chen Qing was dumbfounded.

If it were anyone else, he would have stayed patiently at the inn at this time, waiting for His Majesty's orders, for fear that he would miss the order when he left.

However, this man actually still has the heart to play.

This is simply not taking His Majesty seriously at all!

"Do not worry."

Perhaps sensing Chen Qing's worry, Cui Yuan smiled and said, "It's okay. If your Majesty sends someone over, it's best to wait for now. It's not an important matter anyway."

Li Shimin also nodded. Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed very powerful, but not powerful enough to keep him and Cui Yuan waiting here.

It’s rare to catch up with the Ming Dynasty’s Spring Festival, how can you not go and have fun?

The two of them took a hot bath comfortably, put on the clean clothes provided by the inn, and then let Chen Qing lead the way out.

Besides Chen Qing's wry smile, he still only had a wry smile.

I'm afraid these two are the only people in Yingtian Mansion who dare to take His Majesty's orders seriously.

But he didn't mean to complain. After all, if it hadn't been for them, he would have slept forever like the thousands of corpses in the Hu Mansion.

……

In Cui Yuan, when Li Shimin left the inn under the leadership of Chen Qing.

In the imperial palace and Kunning Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang also received relevant news.

Cui Yuan's guess was correct. As long as he was in Yingtian Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang had the ability to know anything he wanted to know.

"Biao'er, sister, how do you think we should treat this Cui Yuan?"

Zhu Yuanzhang handed it to Prince Zhu Biao and Queen Ma in front of him. There was no coldness on his face when he confronted Cui Yuan, but only undisguised annoyance and helplessness.

Zhu Biaosheng's trademark is almost exactly the same as that of Zhu Yuanzhang when he was young. He is his favorite son and the only candidate in his mind to be the next emperor of Ming Dynasty.

Queen Ma is a very gentle woman, and she is also Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite woman in his life, and the only queen of the Ming Dynasty.

Both of them are the family members that Zhu Yuanzhang values ​​the most. In front of them, Zhu Yuanzhang can take off any disguise and no longer needs to be the ruthless and cold emperor.

"Not only did he guess the real reason why we wanted to kill Hu Weiyong, but he also said that he came from seven hundred years later, and he was named King of Qin by the First Emperor during the Qin Dynasty."

"Do you think there are really such absurd and contradictory things in this world?"

"But deep down in our hearts, we feel that he is not lying and that what he tells is all the truth!"

"It's so ridiculous, we really can't understand it at all!"

At the palace wall just now, he didn't want to ask more questions about these points, but now he is complaining.

Empress Ma stepped forward and wiped Zhu Yuanzhang's sweat, and said heartbrokenly: "Your Majesty, you are worried about this and that. Look, your hair has become a few grayer."

Zhu Biao also consoled him: "Mother is right."

"Father, regarding Cui Yuan, let me test it with my son."

"you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, looked at Zhu Biao angrily, and said, "We can't even test Cui Yuan's background. We even used the Fire Gun Team. What can you do?"

It's not that he doesn't trust Zhu Biao, on the contrary, he loves Zhu Biao so much that he doesn't want him to get hurt at all.

Cui Yuan's martial prowess has been bloody proven. He is an old man with half-cut bones in the ground. If something happens to him, he will die.

But if Zhu Biao provokes Cui Yuan, and the latter goes crazy, it will really be like killing God when God blocks God, and Buddha when Buddha blocks Buddha!

"Don't worry, Father!"

Zhu Biao was still confident: "I have thought of a good way to ensure there is no danger!"
