The control group of the ancient heroine

Du Ke was surprised. Why did the scene just now seem so familiar? It happened more than two months ago. So now, looking at the guards in front of him, Du Ke suddenly felt a little confused. Could it be that Qin Fang sent someone again? Du Ke was surprised. This should be impossible. "What is the matter in the mansion that you come to see me?"

The guard said respectfully: "General Qin of Yunxiang County sent someone to see you, saying that there is something to ask you to return to the mansion."

Du Ke felt that the rationality in his head was broken, or there was a problem with his hearing. How did he get involved with Qin Fang again? He felt that getting involved with Qin Fang would never be good for him.

The first time he got involved with Qin Fang was when some barbarians in Yongzhou military camp surrendered, and then he was sent to Yongzhou military camp. The journey was long, and he was tired.

The second time Qin Fang was involved was the matter of Huanshui County, and then he was sent to Huanshui County again. The journey was not far, but he was still tired. Going to Yongzhou was tiring because the journey was long, but after arriving in Yongzhou, he didn't have much to do. But going to Huanshui County was not far, but tiring because there were many things to do.

What is it this time?

Du Ke cursed.

However, every time Qin Fang was involved, it seemed to be a good thing. The first time the barbarians surrendered, the second time they suppressed the bandits, what about this time? Although Du Ke was disgusted, it was undeniable that he was looking forward to it in his heart and was very curious.

Because it was a matter, Du Ke had to leave early. As soon as he returned to the Du Mansion, he met Tao 껚. Tao 껚 respectfully took out a letter and a memorial from his arms.

Seeing this, Du Ke raised his eyebrows. He knew what Qin Fang meant. However, Qin Fang was a military general. In Qi State, if a military general outside had something to report, generally speaking, the memorial would first go to the Ministry of War, so there was no problem with Qin Fang sending this memorial to him. But Du Ke knew that Qin Fang didn't mean that. He wanted him to take a look. This was something that was bothering him.

It was something that was embarrassing.

Although he felt that Qin Fang was embarrassed, Du Ke was in a good mood. However, this good mood was not good at all when he took out the letter.

Let me ask, who can write so many things in a letter? Qin Fang's letter was filled with a whole page of paper. If Qin Fang was a legal expert, he would just treat it as a legal expert, but Qin Fang was not. Although the characters are still good, in his eyes, these good characters are like the characters of a child, which is very different.

Du Ke said: "Is your general very idle recently? There are many trivial things in Yunxiang County?" Otherwise, where did Qin Fang have the time and energy to write so much?

Tao didn't know why Lord Du asked this, but he knew that Lord Du didn't mean to be angry, so he answered honestly: "The general has not rested since he came to Yunxiang County. First, he settled the barbarians... No, the general said that they are already the people of Qi State, and they cannot be called barbarians. They can be called new citizens of Qi State.

After settling the new citizens of Qi State, the general repaired the county wall and built a military camp. After that, he investigated the beasts, and there were many things to do. When I came, the general was still busy all night."

When Du Ke heard it, he was very satisfied: "He is thoughtful." The name of the new citizen of Qi State is really good. However, repairing the county wall and building a military camp, although it is a small matter, it is not a big deal for him. Then, Du Ke didn't say anything, but read Qin Fang's letter.

Qin Fang first talked about the settlement of the new citizens of Qiguo in the letter, and then said that he would recruit 300 soldiers from the new citizens of Qiguo as the city defense force of Yunxiang County. Although this move is bold and somewhat inconsistent with the principle of breaking up into smaller pieces, the soldiers' relatives are in the countryside. For the safety of their relatives, they will not be in trouble. It is okay.

The second thing is about using military pay to buy land and using the food crops in the land to feed the soldiers. Du Ke was shocked to hear this. This is really a good thing. Who would have thought that soldiers can be raised like this?

The court has always been harsh on military generals. The amount of money allocated by the court to the military camp is always very small. On the court side, there is always a worry that the money is watery, and it is feared that the generals will embezzle it or use it for other purposes. At the same time, the silver and grain of the court were all collected from taxes. Once the tax revenue was not collected, the court would be poor, without silver and grain.

However, the court had never cultivated and supported the army by itself. Seeing what Qin Fang wrote in the letter, using military pay to buy land and using the income from the land to support the soldiers, which was what his wife said, Du Ke felt it was unusual. This kind of thing would only happen to the family members who handled the affairs of the inner house.

Du Ke continued to walk, and when he saw the beast longevity Taoist temple and the iron chain man, and Qin Fang suspected that it was related to King Liang, his eyes darkened.

Du Ke didn't have a deep impression of the King Liang today, but he had an impression. He is now thirty-eight years old. Twenty years ago, although he was already eighteen years old, the King of Liang had already gone to the state to be enfeoffed, and he really had never paid attention to the powerless King of Liang. Du Ke thought that he might ask his father about the King of Liang. Du Ke continued to go to the sulphur mine and the saltpeter mine.

Regarding sulfur mines and saltpeter mines, Qin Fang wrote this. According to Weichen’s understanding, sulfur and saltpeter are the materials for making firecrackers. If the imperial court used sulfur and saltpeter to make large firecrackers, then use large firecrackers to In a war, does the other side have a huge advantage when fighting?

Qin Fang did not mention Yang Haiyan. Although he himself is not patriarchal and does not underestimate his wife, he knows that if his wife is involved in such important court affairs, people will eventually make other comments. Fourth, that’s why Qin Fang didn’t mention Yang Haiyan here. The military camp grounds were related to the inner house, so Qin Fang told the truth.

Regarding the matter of sulfur and saltpeter, Du Ke naturally knew that the imperial court had discussed the matter of this big firecracker, but there was not enough sulfur and saltpeter, so this method could only be suspended. He didn't notice the big thing. Qin Fang actually found sulfur mines and saltpeter mines.

According to Qin Fang's letter, two years ago, King Liang had found sulfur mines and saltpeter mines. However, King Liang did not inform the court because he was trying to make elixirs. In the end, King Liang fell ill. But if King Liang did not have this selfish intention two years ago, then Qi Guo after two years might have unified the world.

Speaking of which, King Liang 2 years ago concealed sulfur mines and saltpeter mines just because sulfur and saltpeter were used to make elixirs? If you tell me this, no one will believe it. Is this Liang Wang mentally ill? How much sulfur and saltpeter can be used to make an elixir? According to Qin Fang's description, these two mines are so big that even if they are used as food, they can feed King Liang for a lifetime.

Du Ke has a conspiracy theory. Isn’t it true that King Liang didn’t?

‌Come here, Du Ke‌‌, go find Mr. ‌Du‌.

Although Mr. Du has not yet become an official, he is already in the state of becoming an official. He is doing so in name only and will wait until the end of the year to become an official. The reason why Mr. Du is like this is because of Mr. Du. This is very common in the 녡 family. It is impossible for both father and son to have a strong fist, so the father will give way to the son because the father ‌‌.

Du Ke gave Qin Fang's letter: "Father, what do you think about this matter? The glass ore and saltpeter mine must be true. Qin Fang said that based on the crazy words of the chained man, Crazy language can tell that this man in chains is most likely a Taoist priest who was captured by King Liang to make elixirs two years ago. However, his son feels that the matter is not that simple. King Liang is really responsible for the unknown elixir. , concealing such a large sulfur mine and saltpeter mine? Could he..."

Master Du ‌ shook his head, ‌finished the letter, and returned it to ‌‌ Du Ke: "It is true that King Liang ‌‌, King Liang is not favored by his father. His biological mother is a powerless maid ‌, because only when the Holy One has the favor and trust does one have King Liang. The reason why King Liang is named King of Liang is because King Liang’s biological mother’s surname is Liang. It can be seen that the Holy One has no expectations for him at all.

Renzhou was his conferred by the Holy Sage, and 껩 was the home of his biological mother. He was five years old, and when he was about to dance with a spoon, the Holy Sage asked him to be granted the title. Later, when the emperor came to the throne, he came back once, but he never came back again. I heard the news about King Liang again, it was that he died of illness. If the king of Liang is said to be fake, what is his purpose? There is no movement in such a large sulfur ore and saltpeter ore? If King Liang is a fake, then these two days will be enough for him to rebel and hide. "

Du Ke said: "I don't think Liang Wang's lie is true, but if it is true, why should I report this matter to the court before I go? After all, this is their family's Jiang."

Mr. Du did not take it seriously: "If you are not in your position, you will not seek to govern. Everyone has a different sense of responsibility. However, this General Qin is quite good."

Du Ke said: "A little smart, but his personality is quite upright."

Mr. Du smiled: "You're right, it's luck."

Du Ke was stunned for a moment and then answered carefully, it was true. It only takes one and a half years to go from a thousand-year-old to a general of martial virtue, but from the seventh grade to the fifth grade, it's a four-level jump. As soon as he came to power, he suppressed bandits, arrested corrupt officials, and discovered sulfur mines and saltpeter mines... How lucky is this?

Mr. Du said again: "Sometimes people have to believe in fate and luck."

Du Ke said: "Father is right."

Mr. Du waved his hand.

Du Ke‌‌: "My son is going to see the emperor in the palace."

royal palace

When Du Ke went there, the emperor was taking exams for several princes. Your Majesty is now seven years old and has three princes. The eldest is seven years old and the remaining two are five years old. The seven-year-old prince was born to the imperial concubine, who was the step-concubine of Prince Yuan. The emperor succeeded in seizing the legitimate son. Logically speaking, the step-concubine of King Yuan should be the queen. However, the emperor instead named the "dead" original wife Princess Yuan as his queen, and the step-concubine was the imperial concubine. Therefore, this good eldest son becomes the eldest son of a concubine. Unless the imperial concubine "transfers", otherwise, he will remain the eldest son of a concubine for the rest of his life.
