The happy life of a prodigal

At this time, Liang Hu next to him said again: "Your Majesty, after repeated experiments on No. [-] Heaven's Punishment, the triggering conditions have been controlled to a certain extent.

If it is on the battlefield, you can increase the trigger threshold of No. [-] Heaven's Punishment, so that small animals such as hares cannot trigger Heaven's Punishment. "

Chu Huang nodded, looked at Liang Hu, and asked: "If the punishment of heaven has not been triggered, what should we do?"

"This......"

Hearing this, Liang Hu hesitated, not knowing how to answer.

He is a good leader in the army, and he is also a good soldier in training.

However, when it comes to the matter of heaven's punishment, he doesn't understand it so clearly.

After all, Heaven's Punishment is a new type of weapon. It has never been experienced in actual combat, nor has it been on the battlefield. No one can know what kind of effect it will produce.

Liang Hu subconsciously glanced behind Emperor Chu, there was a person standing there... the creator of Heaven's Punishment, the general of Shenji Battalion——Fang Xiu!

Seeing this, Fang Xiu continued, "Your Majesty, there is a possibility of accidents, and I cannot guarantee that Heaven's punishment will be triggered.

However, the cases of not being triggered are rare after all, as long as we bury more Heaven's Punishment, these will be foolproof. "

Emperor Chu nodded, and said again: "I know that the principle of Heaven's Punishment is similar to that of fireworks. There is one main raw material, which is saltpeter...

I heard that this thing loses its original effect when it comes into contact with water, and it is rainy in the southeast, so what if it gets soaked in rain after the day is buried? "

Fang Xiu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the outside of Heaven's Punishment is wrapped in sheepskin, so it is difficult to soak in the rain."

Before coming here, Emperor Chu obviously had some understanding of Heaven's Punishment, and asked, "What if the common people touch it by mistake?"

Fang Xiu was speechless when he heard this.

Isn't this arguing?

However, after thinking about one item, this seems to be a problem.

So he replied: "Your Majesty can order the leaders of the army to evacuate the people in advance and prohibit the people from entering the battlefield.

In fact, I thought that even without His Majesty's order, the common people would stay away before the battle. "

After hearing this, Emperor Chu nodded, looked at Fang Xiu, and asked the last question: "What if the Mu family's rebels take a detour, or give up attacking the city and point directly at the capital, what should we do?"

Fang Xiu frowned slightly when he heard this.

He really hadn't thought about this question.

only......

Fang Xiu cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, if the Mu Clan's rebels want to attack the capital, they must go through the southeast two roads.

Unless they made a detour from the west, but that would take at least three months longer, and they would have to experience many accidents on the way.

By that time, the army of the imperial court had already pacified the Qiyan Department and returned to the capital!

Even if they successfully detour and come to the land of Gyeonggi, there will be No. [-] Heavenly Punishment.

The minister dares to use his own head to guarantee that as long as the No. [-] Heavenly Punishment is sufficient, no city in the imperial court will be lost!

The most important point, Your Majesty, the existence of the Shenji Battalion and the Heavenly Punishment are top secret. The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion have not contacted outsiders for more than three months since they entered the camp.

Apart from everyone here, there are only three elders and Ma Gong who know about the existence of Heaven's Punishment. I think that the four of them will never leak this news.

Therefore, the enemy is in the open, and our side is in the dark. Mu's rebels will not do such a detour, relying on [-] soldiers! "

457 Chapter Chen has selfish intentions

When Emperor Chu heard this, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

After a while, a faint smile appeared on his face, he looked at Fang Xiu, and said, "Are you so confident?"

Fang Xiu cupped his hands and said: "It's not that I'm confident, I just believe in Shenjiying and God's punishment."

After hearing this, Emperor Chu raised his eyes, glanced at the large and small pits not far away, nodded, and said, "I understand.

Today, I did not come to this Divine Machine Camp in vain.

Liu Cheng, drive back to the palace. "

The eunuch's sharp voice sounded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After hearing this, Liang Hu and the others hurriedly bowed and said, "I will send you off to Your Majesty respectfully!"

Fang Xiu came with the old emperor, so naturally he had to follow him back to the palace.

On the official road, after the old emperor got into the carriage, he glanced at Fang Xiu and said, "You come up too, I have something to say to you."

After Fang Xiu heard this, he was slightly taken aback, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Yu Jia drove slowly, but the inside of the carriage was not so bumpy.

It has already entered autumn and the weather is cool, especially at dusk.

Therefore, a small stove was placed in the emperor's carriage.

The old emperor sat down by the fire.

Fang Xiu was beside him, not knowing where to sit.

"There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to be so cautious."

After sitting down, Emperor Chu looked up at him and said.

When Fang Xiu heard this, he replied 'Thank you, Your Majesty', and sat down on the floor.

"I have one more thing I want to ask you..."

Emperor Chu stretched out his hands, warmed it on the stove, and said slowly: "Who do you think can be the main general to counter the rebellion?"

When Fang Xiu heard this question, he replied without any hesitation, "I think General Dingyuan can take on this task!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chu was a little surprised, said 'oh', looked at him, and said, "Why?"

Fang Xiu said in his heart: You have called him back to Beijing, why are you still asking?

Isn't this an obvious thing?

Even so, he replied honestly: "General Dingyuan has the experience of going south to suppress the rebellion, and he and the Mu family have the experience of jointly attacking chieftains.

Whether it's the terrain in the southwest and southeast, or the understanding of the Mu's rebels, among the several generals, there is no more suitable candidate than General Dingyuan. "

"He's your father..."

"Serve the court, serve His Majesty, do your best, and die. I believe that my father must think so too!"

Fang Xiu spoke righteously.

After hearing this, Emperor Chu glanced at him, with a smile on his face, and said, "You don't have to do this, I'm just asking casually."

Fang Xiu showed a serious look on his face, and said: "Besides, I have selfish motives."

Chu Huang looked at him: "Oh, what selfishness, let's hear it..."

"Chen's father is an important general, and this time he is fighting the Qiyan tribe, no matter what, he will fight on the battlefield.

Although I don't understand the strength of the Mu family, I do understand the punishment of heaven. Besides, I have also seen those warriors in the grassland.

The minister thought in his heart that countering the rebellion in the southwest was better than fighting with those wolves of the Qiyan tribe. "

"Hahahahaha..."

After hearing this, Emperor Chu laughed, stretched out his finger and pointed at Fang Xiu, and said, "You little fellow is really sincere.

It is human nature to have selfishness, who in this world is not selfish?

As long as you can control your own selfishness, it is a good thing, well, I have talked with me so much today, I think you are tired...

Liu Cheng, where have you been? "

Outside the carriage, Liu Cheng hurriedly replied, "Master, we're in the east of the city!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chu looked at Fang Xiu and said, "I remember correctly, Uncle Anping's Mansion is in the east of the city..."

"Report to Your Majesty, yes!"

"Okay, go back."

Fang Xiu hesitated for a moment, but still cupped his hands and said, "Resign!"

After speaking, he got out of the carriage.

Inside the carriage, with deep eyes, Emperor Chu watched Fang Xiu get off the carriage and gradually disappeared from his sight, with a faint smile on his face all the time.

Back at Fangfu, it was already dark.

As soon as Menzi saw his young master, he hastily greeted him: "Master, you are back..."

"I'm back, is Miss Wanqing still in the mansion?"

"Returning to the young master, just after you left for a while, Miss Wanqing also left."

Fang Xiu nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face, and asked: "Does she have anything to say to my young master?"

Menzi heard this, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It seems...not."

Fang Xiu nodded and walked into Fang's mansion without asking any more questions.

Before reaching the backyard, he saw a familiar figure.

"You haven't gone back yet?"

Zhao Yan was obviously thinking about something, she was a little out of her wits, she was startled when she heard Fang Xiu's voice, and when she saw it was him, she relaxed and said, "Where are you going back? In the palace?"

When Fang Xiu heard this, his expression became a little strange, and he said, "Of course I'm going back to your own mansion."

Zhao Yan shook her head and said, "It's too stuffy there, and there's no one there. I'm afraid to live there alone at night..."

Fang Xiu was speechless.

There is actually something in this world that makes Her Royal Highness afraid?

That's a rare thing.

Even so, he didn't say much.

After all, it is not a day or two for Zhao Yan to spend the night in her house.

"Aren't you afraid of bumping into my dad?"

Fang Xiu walked into the backyard, took a sip of tea, thought for a while, and still couldn't hold back, he asked.

When Zhao Yan heard this, she glanced at him and asked, "You don't know?"

"what do you know?"

"Uncle Anping has taken the order to leave Beijing."

After Fang Xiu heard this, he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of tea, and asked in surprise, "So fast?"

Zhao Yan nodded and said, "It's the emperor's will, there should be nothing wrong with it."

When Fang Xiu heard this, he suddenly understood.

On the carriage just now, why did the old emperor ask himself those words.

He looked at Zhao Yan, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "What did Lin Wanqing tell you?"

Zhao Yan was still looking out of her mind at first, but when she heard the word 'Lin Wanqing', her pretty face turned red.

He faltered and said: "It's nothing, I just had tea for a while and then left."

Seeing this, Fang Xiu said suspiciously: "Really?"

Seeing his eyes, Zhao Yan glared at him not to be outdone, and said, "His Royal Highness, can I still lie to you!?"

Fang Xiu listened, but shook his head and said, "Just curious."

Zhao Yan didn't reply.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his head, stared at Fang Xiu with a pair of beautiful eyes, and asked, "Is what you said before true?"

Fang Xiu was slightly taken aback, then seemed to remember something, his expression became serious and serious, he nodded, and said, "Of course."

"But...but...."

After Zhao Yan heard this, joy appeared on her face, but she just covered it up for a moment.

"But what?"
