The story of the peasant girl who is reborn

Chapter 215 The Emperor's Mind

Move the mountain, move as soon as you say.

But it is not easy to tear down the mountain.

Dynamite!

Yun Jing couldn't help but think of the explosives that later generations used to open mountains and crack rocks. Coincidentally, she knew the ratio of gunpowder.

Saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal are the main materials, and it is not difficult to obtain them.

After more than ten days of mixing, Yun Jing preliminarily created a powerful gunpowder, and then used it to blow up mountains.The explosion shook the ground, and half the mountain collapsed.

When Beiman closed, the defenders panicked for a while, thinking that it was the rebellion of the Beiman.

Chang Ying, Marquis of Dingbei, went up to the city gate tower and looked in the distance, only to see dust rising into the sky, but not a single Northern barbarian cavalry.

Chang Ying immediately led his bodyguards out of the city and rushed to the scene of the accident, only to see Shi Yu leading people loading earth and rocks on the bus to Mara.

"Nephew, what are you doing? Are you planning to build a city?"

Although Chang Ying really wanted to know how the half of the mountain collapsed, it was obviously not the right question to ask.If the collapse of this mountain was really caused by manpower, wouldn't Beiman Pass also collapse in an instant?
"Uncle, it's like this. Isn't it because there is too little land for growing crops in our Northern Territory Mansion? I was thinking, why don't I get some soil back and see if I can plant land. It just so happened that the mountain collapsed, so I Come with someone!"

Shi Yu chuckled and said, "Master, what are you doing here?"

"Ah, I saw the smoke and dust billowing, and I said something happened, so I brought someone to check it. Well, you should be busy!"

Chang Ying didn't ask how Shan got his bed, he believed it, and he couldn't find anything.But after this incident, Chang Ying understood that Beiman Pass would no longer be a solid fortress against the northern barbarians.

Back at Beiman Pass, Chang Ying immediately went to the emperor's secret book, reported everything that happened here to the emperor, and waited for the emperor's ruling.

……

The capital, the imperial palace, the political hall,

The emperor sat high on the throne, looking down at the civil and military officials below.

"Everyone, tell me, what do you think about this matter?"

With a loud noise, half of the mountain collapsed.Is this man-made, or is it the work of gods?And let's talk about this, the collapse of the mountain or God's will?

"Your Majesty, I think that this mountain collapse should be a natural landslide. People, it is impossible to have such a powerful method! Ding Beihou said that the abolition of Beiman Pass is not advisable!"

"Father, my son thinks that since the Beiyu Mansion has been pacified by Zhenbei Hou, and there is no Beiman South King and Beiman East King to point fingers, the Beiman should be able to completely submit to the court. My son thinks, We should withdraw the Beiman Pass garrison, open Beiman Pass, and no longer restrict the entry of the northern barbarians!"

The third prince is now married and has been shoved into the court by the emperor. He can no longer play with birds and fish all day like before.

As early as when Father Shi and Chang Ying sent the first package to Beijing, Ji Lian advocated withdrawing the garrison at Beiman Pass.It's a pity that the courtiers collectively opposed it, and the emperor himself didn't trust Beiman.

Now that Marquis Dingbei often wins the play, Beiman Pass may become useless, so Ji Lian is naturally repeating the old story.

"Third Prince, this statement is wrong!"

Xing Rui, Minister of the Ministry of War, retorted, "Northern barbarians are ambitious. Although Zhenbeihou is in charge of the Beiyu Mansion, the northern barbarians have made alliances with Dayin and me many times, and they will not invade each other. At most, they can maintain peace and stability for 50 years. Then came the war. The veteran thought that the northern barbarians had to guard against it!"

"Xing Shangshu, now Dingbei Hou is playing, the Beiman Pass is useless!"

"Brother Sanhuang, Marquis Dingbei means, maybe, not necessarily. After all, we still don't know how that mountain collapsed, whether it was man-made or God's will!"

The seventh prince, Ji Huai, stepped forward to fight Ji Lian.

Seeing the appearance of the Seventh Prince, Ji Lian snorted coldly, and stopped arguing about this issue. How to deal with it, I'd better wait for the Holy Judgment!

The next time, there was a one-sided voice in the hall.Not only insisted that the garrison at Beimanguan could not be withdrawn, but even demanded that the defenses be strengthened in Longxi County and Xiping Mansion.

The emperor has been listening to the discussion of the ministers, but never said a word.

When the ministers calmed down, the emperor opened his mouth lightly, using the Seventh Prince Ji Huai as an imperial envoy to inspect the Northern Region Mansion, and then make a decision!

As soon as Ji Lian heard the emperor's will, she more or less understood the emperor's mind.

After the dynasty was over, Ji Lian did not go out of the palace, but went straight to the imperial study to have a deep talk with the emperor.

"Father, the seventh brother has always had a feud with the little uncle's family. If you make him an imperial envoy, it will only backfire!"

"If you don't want to shoot Lao Qi, should I send you there?"

The emperor glanced at the third prince indifferently, and said: "Will you go to see it impartially? Do you only have public hearts and no selfishness towards Zhenbeihou's family?"

"Father, didn't I say that I want to go by myself? I just don't suggest that my seventh brother go!"

Ji Lian was slightly taken aback, because the emperor's attitude was a bit cold, and he seemed to have some resentment towards the Shi family.He thought about it carefully, but he never felt that his little uncle's family had done anything to make his father unhappy.

"Lian'er, do you know that I never planned to bring Beiyu Mansion into my Dayin territory!"

"what?"

Hearing the emperor's words, Ji Lian felt thunder rolling from the sky, he couldn't believe it.His father tossed so many things, and never planned to bring the Beiyu Mansion into the Dayin Dynasty, so what is he planning?
"Beiyu Mansion is located in a barren place. In order to keep the Beiman from making trouble, I have to spend one-third of the treasury's income to fill the Beiman every year. Do you know?"

"My son knows!"

Ji Lian nodded, "But now, hasn't the Lord Lianshan already thought of a solution? The northern barbarians can also be used by the Dayin Dynasty? Moreover, their war horses are really good!"

"What do you need so many war horses?" The emperor snorted coldly, "If the northern barbarians are eliminated, and the Dayin Dynasty will have no external aggression, why do we need too many war horses? Within the four seas, my Dayin Dynasty is the supreme Celestial Dynasty!"

The emperor looked at Ji Lian and said, "Tell me, how many troops will the Dayin Dynasty need by then? How many war horses will it need?"

Ji Lian was slightly taken aback, and said: "Father, what you said makes sense. However, in this world, I am not the only country in Dayin Dynasty. Not to mention the many small countries in Xihu, even overseas, there are also countries. In the past few years, in the southeast land of my Dayin Dynasty, didn't there appear weird hairy people?"

"Hairy man? Hmph, savages, I, Da Yinchao, can crush them with just one finger!"

The emperor waved his hand and said: "You don't need to say anything about this matter, let your seventh brother go and see what is going on in the Northern Territory Mansion. It's not like I don't have my own opinions at all, and I completely listen to the words of the seventh brother! You, don't worry!"

Speaking of this, Ji Lian knew that what he said now was useless.

"My son retire!"

Ji Lian stepped back and went back to the Third Prince's Mansion, ready to write a letter to Shi Yu!
