Chapter 74
Runan Palace.

"Daddy, my son found out that Zhao Xi has left the city."

Zhao Zongyu only said this, and stopped talking.Although he is in charge of contacting those idlers, but how to use it and when to use it is up to his father to decide.

"Going out of the city? You have already returned to the city. And Yu Majian solved the problem of the thousand-year-old cavalry's rotten hooves... Call Zong Hui, you go out."

King Runan paused between his words, as if he had made up his mind.

When Fu Bi from Zhiqingzhou, Han Qi from Jingxi Road, and Pang Ji, who was about to go to Beijing to perform his duties, successively wrote a special note praising Prince E, Zhao Zhen was so happy that he couldn't find the north.

Then he rewarded at will...

Zhao Xi didn't care about these things, he had to cooperate with the supervisor to make what he wanted.

First, I asked for [-] guan from the empress... The empress didn't ask what she wanted.

This is a pain for Wang Zhongzheng, [-] guan, he has to carry it, and he has to give it to the general supervisor.

Zhao Xi had never handled so much money before, and it was the first time that he realized that what he thought was wrong, the bank notes and the silver taels were all nonsense.This...is actually carrying money.

In fact, there are still silver taels traded, even the empress also has silver taels.It's just that the mother thought that he was a reward just like his father, so she gave him copper coins.

Zhao Xi also told Wang Zhongzheng that he wanted to buy some saltpeter, sulfur and willow charcoal, as well as crucibles, bamboo chopsticks and so on.

This is the advantage of being a master, basically working with your mouth.

……

It will take more than three months before the general supervisor is finally sent to Zhao Xi.Not to mention, it took a little longer, but the things are really exquisite, better than Zhao Xi imagined.

The mahogany handle, the half-foot-long bronze tube, is still double-tube, and the gap between the upper and lower tubes is just enough for the cleaning rod.

It can be seen that this great craftsman really bothered.Whether it is flint or hammer, including iron tips, all use good materials.

"My lord, the great craftsman said that if it wasn't for some materials in the prison, these two things would cost at least [-] guan..."

When Wang Zhongzheng said this, he seemed very disapproving.It's just a prince playing around, and still [-] coins?It's not that the prince doesn't remember your favor, is it necessary to be so exaggerated?

Zhao Xi believed the master's words.But manpower, just talking about this copper pipe, I don't know how much was wasted.

Zhao Xi didn't know how the master tested trachoma, but Zhao Xi could feel that the copper tubes of these two flintlock guns were definitely not inferior to the castings of later generations.

Alas... there is no possibility of promotion at all.

The lifespan of this thing is uncertain, each ten thousand guan, not to mention that Guochao is not rich, even if there is a lot of money, the husbands would rather send money, and would not let the imperial army be equipped.

What's more, today's big money is almost divided into copper and lead, and there is no land rich in copper in the country.

"Zhongzheng, help me remember that master's name, it will be useful in the future."

it works?The prince will still return favors.Wang Zhongzheng always felt that the master should have discounted a lot, [-] guan, just these two gadgets...

litter thing?

Wang Zhongzheng had his own rank, so he had a separate room, and Zhao Xi couldn't do many things in Ciming Palace, so he fiddled with him.

He has prepared black powder that is almost the same as that of later generations.

There is no quantitative equipment, just wait for the flintlock to come back to see the size of the medicine pot.

Then Wang Zhongzheng had something else to do, just trying to get marbles...

Everything is done, Zhao Xi thinks it should be ok.I just can't try it, this is Neiyuan... There are too many age restrictions.

Originally, he thought that the first day was coming soon, so he could try it while setting off the firecrackers, but in the end, he didn't have any free time for himself during this festival.

Even if it's the first month before graduation this year...

It's quite interesting, two Yuan Days and two Yuan Eves, in the Song Dynasty, there were really only two releases from the government, and two carnivals on Yuan Eve.

These are no longer interesting to Zhao Xi.

Without Yan Shu, without Ouyang Xiu, even Fan Zhongyan... Is it time for this old Fan to create his "Yueyang Tower"?
Very good, at least I didn't ruin the famous book through the ages.

It's just that the night of the New Year's Eve has become boring.

Pang Ji...reminds Zhao Xi of the Baogong case.Because this year's New Year's Eve, he finally saw Bao Zheng, the famous minister through the ages, and he naturally thought of Pang Ji.

It's a pity that he is not a grand master, and Bao Zheng is not Heitantou, nor has he been kicked in the head by a donkey.

He is quite fair and clean, energetic, with piercing eyes, and he likes to stare at people.

On the contrary, Pang Ji looked a little older.It may have been blown by the wind and sand in the northwest.

I heard that Pang Xianggong has been in charge of Northwest affairs, and he has made great achievements in the confrontation with Daxia.Not a bit of a traitorous official, from head to toe, he showed his loyalty to Song Dynasty.

Besides, Bao Zheng is now an admonisher of Yushitai, and Pang Ji is already an envoy of the Privy Council.

It is possible to say that Bao Zheng's few words in the court hall are still possible, but if he wants to fight Pang Ji, it may not be of the same order of magnitude.

Pang Ji is already a bachelor of Zhaowenge, but Bao Zheng is not among the two direct bachelors.

Zhao Xi was upstairs at Xuande Gate, so he could no longer run around like before, and obediently stayed in his fixed position.Learn from my father and watch the courtiers recite poems and fight against each other.

Without everyone, no one will provoke Zhao Xi even if he recites poems and makes mistakes.

A few years ago, the prince was already comparable to Dana, but now... don't find fault with him.

Zhao Xi looked back and forth between Bao Zheng and Pang Ji, but unfortunately, there was no conflict.On the contrary, Bao Zheng respected Pang Ji a lot...it was boring.

He didn't know that the story that idiot made up made him think so carefully.

Well, if you are bored, be bored, but you have to be bored once, and you haven't tried a flintlock pistol yet... Zhao Xi feels very regretful.

On the second New Year's Eve, the inner garden did not put up lights and festoons again, nor did my father summon the courtiers to go to the Xuande Gate to watch the excitement again.

It was said that Bao Zheng thought his father was salivating while watching sumo wrestling, and that it was his mother who said that he should not be extravagant... Whatever, Zhao Xi thought it was right, and he would save himself from being in a daze with the uncles in the cold wind.

The inner garden was no longer busy, and Zhao Xi fell asleep early as usual...

"What happened?"

In his sleep, Zhao Xi was awakened by a burst of noise.

The noise was too loud, like a war, very loud in this quiet night.

"Xi'er, don't panic, father and mother are here."

At this time, Zhao Xi found that his father and mother had arrived in his room.Very strange, what the hell is going on here?
"Saint, you accompany Xi'er, I'll go out and have a look!"

"Officials! Don't go out!"

Empress's voice has changed...

"Your Majesty, what happened? Can Xi'er know?"

Looking at the expression and performance of the empress, Zhao Xi knew that things must be unusual.I have never seen the empress so gaffe, always so dignified.

He never yelled at his father so sharply, even if he fell from the swing back then, even if his uncle Cao Fu was impeached, he was always calm.

And today...

"Xi'er, there should be an officer in front of the palace on duty to make trouble!"

what the hell!Zhao Xi also had a headache!I thought that all these years, he spent a lot of money to support this group of people, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
