A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 749: Standing on one’s head

"boom!"

The city wall could not withstand the burning of the flames and collapsed.

Bao Zheng said excitedly: "This is an achievement comparable to a great victory!"

Zhao Shu was very happy, so he pretended not to hear Bao Zheng's reminder, "Are there many of these things over there?"

"If enough are used in battle formations."

Shen An knew that the oil in that place was very poor and difficult to extract, so he didn't expect to be able to develop any petrochemical industry, and the current Song Dynasty couldn't do it either.

"From what you're saying, it seems like it can be used for other purposes besides battle formations?"

Zhao Shu felt that Shen An's appetite was too big, but he had some expectations for his ability in miscellaneous studies.

"Guan Jia, this thing can make ink."

Bao Zheng's suggestion made Zhao Shu a little confused. When he saw Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang who had returned from the smoke, he couldn't help but laugh.

"This thing already exists."

Han Qi said seriously: "Maybe people who discovered black oil before just used it as something to make fire. Now I think about it, this black oil burns with thick smoke and pungent smell. How can it be compared to firewood? I think everyone despises it, but But Shen An saw the benefit, that is, it can be used in battle formations."

Zhao Shu nodded and said: "This is his advantage. He has far-reaching vision and can see things that others cannot see. Sometimes I wonder, how does this young man's brain grow? How can he think of so many incredible things?" It’s an idea, but it’s extremely reasonable. This is probably genius.”

I'm not a genius!

Shen An remembered that he was a scumbag in his previous life. Later, he kept changing jobs and even sold cosmetics and women's clothing...

Perhaps it was these experiences that gave him a lot of insights. His insights, which were inconspicuous at that time, shined brightly in the Song Dynasty.

He said sincerely: "You just stepped on the shoulders of giants."

"On the shoulders of giants?" Ouyang Xiu nodded and praised: "These are excellent words. It shows that Shen An is still humble. Those outside who say he is arrogant are mostly lies."

This is a sign of goodwill!

Shen An quit Taixue and changed from a regular army to a guerrilla. The hostility was slowly dissipating.

Everyone, including Ouyang Xiu, felt that Shen An was asking for trouble by opening an academy.

There are quite a few academies opening these days, and there are only a few that are famous, and there are many that are not famous, and there are many who are dying.

In the final analysis, the academy relies on its success rate in the imperial examination!

Now Taixue is taking the lead, riding high, and looking down upon all the students.

This can be regarded as Shen An creating a powerful opponent for himself and shooting himself in the foot.

Fu Bi has been thinking about it, and now he has probably figured it out, "Guan, this thing can disrupt the enemy's formation during defense, and if the enemy has big things like siege vehicles, this thing can just restrain it... …”

Think about it, the enemy's siege equipment is slowly advancing, and the trebuchets in the city are throwing kerosene bombs. The kerosene bombs flowed and burned on the siege equipment, and the enemy soldiers were screaming and running away...

"Good stuff!"

Everyone couldn't help but admire, and they all felt relieved, as if a big stone had been removed from their hearts.

"Bianliang will be indestructible from now on!"

Han Qi vowed: "If the enemy troops approach the city, then use a sea of ​​fire to greet them!"

Zhao Shu nodded slightly, "It's a sharp weapon, plus gunpowder, the two complement each other and are invincible!"

The king and his ministers were all rejoicing, but Shen An stood there with a cold face.

Zhao Xu had been a transparent person for a long time, and when he saw this, he asked: "Why are you unhappy?"

He felt that Shen An had made meritorious deeds again, so he should be happy.

"Why didn't you think of attacking!"

Shen An's words made people stunned, and then they all laughed.

They didn't speak, but Shen An heard the meaning behind the laughter.

It is still too early for Song Dynasty to talk about offense.

Zhao Shu smiled and said: "I know you are only thinking about the Northern Expedition. Let's wait until the Song army is strong and strong, then..."

He didn't promise anything right away, but the implications were exciting.

As long as the army becomes stronger, Zhao Shu is willing to support the Northern Expedition.

"Youyan!"

Bao Zheng glanced at the north, with hope in his eyes.

Han Qi was looking northwest. He hoped to see kerosene bombs burning on the top of the city of Xingqing Mansion as soon as possible.

"Let's go back."

Zhao Shu was in a good mood and asked Shen An to be by his side.

There are cavalry on the outside and guards on the inside. This security work is foolproof.

Zhao Shu looked at the gray fields happily and suddenly asked: "Uncle Guo is ready, is everything okay?"

The relationship between him and Queen Mother Cao was easing. If Cao Yi was killed outside the palace at this time, Queen Mother Cao would probably chop him and Gao Taotao directly with a long knife.

"I think it's okay."

Shen An said confidently: "If the combination of the Imperial City Division and the Mangshan Army cannot protect my uncle like this, Chen and Zhang will be killed in a head-on collision in the eighth year."

Zhao Shu put down his last worry and said with a smile: "Isn't this far from your village? I remember that there is a workshop of Xianglu. Let's go have a look and have a meal by the way."

Ouyang Xiu joked: "Guan family, let's go and eat well. We will eat everything flying in the sky, swimming in the water, running on the ground, and standing on the trees."

Zhao Shu nodded and said: "Shen An is rich. If this meal is not good, the ministers can eat it at Shen's house for ten and a half days."

Everyone laughed.

All the way to Shenjiazhuang, a farmer saw Zhao Xu and shouted, "The prince is here!"

When he saw Zhao Xu and Shen An behind Zhao Shu, the banker ran back excitedly.

"The officials are here! Chen Xiaonian, the officials are here."

There was an immediate commotion in Zhuangzi, with all kinds of calls for children and daughters.

"The officials are here, Dad, hurry up, Da Lang, carry you out and get your blessings..."

"Chen Xiaonian, hurry up and carry your father out. The official family is here and you are lucky."

Everyone felt a chill, and Zhao Xu asked, "Why does this person look familiar?"

Shen An said awkwardly: "It's a farmer on the village. A few times ago... the late emperor came here. Chen Xiaonian's father was over seventy and he was lying on the bed."

Zhao Shu smiled and said: "These are mellow people, take a look and enjoy it."

He was very tolerant, but when he saw the farmers rushing towards him, his expression still changed.

Men, women, old and young, hundreds of people were running towards us, and the guards were frightened.

"Protect the official family!"

"Calm down!"

Zhao Shu waved his hand and the guards in front of him stepped back.

He said with a smile: "If the people are curious, let them see. As for blessings..."

That's nonsense.

"Don't rush into the officials!"

Shen An, the master, took action. The dealers knew the rules very well and stopped when they were more than ten steps away, looking at Zhao Shu eagerly.

This look is wrong!

Zhao Shu thought it was fanaticism, but he thought that he had nothing to make them fanatical about, so he was a little confused.

But he is an emperor, so of course he cannot ask such stupid questions.

So he looked at it with a smile.

A young man was carrying an old man on his back. The old man looked to be in his seventies. Next to him was his son. The family of three suddenly knelt down.

"What are you doing? Help me up quickly."

The young man was so strong that he knelt down with his grandfather on his back.

The middle-aged man shouted: "The villain Chen Xiaonian, the villain's father Chen Danian is alive today thanks to the blessing of the late emperor. Thank you to the officials..."

Another banker said: "Guan family, this is true. At first, several doctors said that Chen Danian would not live for ten days, but after seeing the late emperor, he actually improved. Later, when we saw him again, he was able to support him. Just move around, this is a miracle!”

Damn it!

Han Qi felt like his hair was standing on end and subconsciously stood in front of Zhao Shu. Then he felt it was inappropriate and hurriedly stepped back.

Zhao Shu was also beating a drum in his heart. He originally thought that the idea of ​​being lucky was nonsense, but it was well-founded. Could someone really be deprived of luck?

And Zhao Zhen's subsequent death...does it have anything to do with this?

He held on to being a giant panda for a while, and after the dealers left satisfied, he felt a little heavy.

Then we went to the cafeteria.

The cafeteria is very neat, and the cook even wears a veil to cook, which looks a bit weird.

"Why?"

Fu Bi felt that this was not appropriate: "It's embarrassing for men to wear veils and be neither men nor women."

"This is a mask." Shen An gave him some common hygiene knowledge: "As long as a person opens his mouth, spit will come out. If it is not covered by a veil, the spit will get into the food..."

"Stop talking." Han Qi's appetite was ruined, and he felt that Shen An did it on purpose, "Just don't say anything."

Shen An smiled, but Zhao Shu greatly appreciated it and said, "Let the cook in the palace get a veil later."

Thinking that the food he ate in the past had the chef's spit in it, Zeng Gongliang said with some dissatisfaction: "An Bei is a disgusting person. His miscellaneous studies are very subtle, and he magnifies everything for you. The result is …Those things are disgusting when they are magnified.”

"Yes!" Han Qi exclaimed: "It used to be said that the moon was a place for gods and goddesses, but when it was enlarged, it was full of holes. There was no Chang'e, no osmanthus tree..."

Several old men were lamenting, and Shen An said: "Actually, a person's face..."

"Shut up!"

Everyone looked at Shen An angrily. If Shen An reveals the secret of human faces again, will everyone be able to survive this day?

Think about it, the beautiful woman in the original eyes, the tender and smooth skin turned out to be full of holes after being magnified...

Can we still live like this?

I am afraid that I will become a monk.

"Okay, I won't say anything anymore."

Shen An, who wanted to disgust people, failed and went to the kitchen.

The cook's hands were shaking, and the guard monitoring him was a little worried.

"Waiting for the imperial edict, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Isn't this person a cheater?"

It would be terrible if it was poisoned or something.

"He is panicking." Shen An scolded: "Cook carefully, and when it is done, I will send you to the palace to serve the officials."

"Okay." The cook suddenly became more energetic at the thought of entering the palace.

After the meal was ready, the guard added in a conspiratorial tone: "Serving the official will cut off your things..."

The excitement dissipated in an instant.

After a delicious meal at the farmhouse, the emperor and his ministers returned home happily.

Shen An and Zhang Baibian then appeared at Cao Yi's home.

They entered quietly through the back door. As soon as they entered the door, Shen An felt heavily guarded.

He stood in the backyard and looked around, frowning and said: "You can notice that the security is tight, but those crazy people can't notice it?"
