The happy life of a prodigal

Fang Xiu bowed his hands and said, "Uncle Xia, there is a saying that it is necessary to be a monster when things go wrong, do you know that? You first mentioned the shipbuilding in the Dongnan Road, and after hearing what I said about Shenwei, you will spend another 1000 taels of silver to see it. Don't you think it's strange?

You are a dignified British prince who is in charge of the military mansion. If you want to see the new weapons of Shenjiying, do you still need to spend 1000 taels of silver? "

Hearing this, the British public was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

Fang Xiu looked at him, and continued: "Did something happen on the southeast road? If I'm not wrong, Bai Xiaochun led someone to kill a pirate? And in a crushing manner?"

"..." The British Duke didn't know what to say.

He had to admit that even though he was over half a hundred years old, he might not be able to compare with Fang Xiu in terms of scheming!

"Okay, it's true, the guarding general of Dongnan Road hastened a few days ago and sent a document to this old man, your Bai Xiaochun, you usually look like a dog's leg, you only know how to flatter.

Unexpectedly, they really have some real skills. With 1000 people, they wiped out nearly [-] pirates in just one day, which is much more than the number of pirates wiped out in the past ten years combined!

Of course, the old man knows that the greatest credit is definitely not Bai Xiaochun, but the divine power that can unleash the power of thunder!

God's punishment... the old man has seen it, and the general guarding the southeast road must have seen it too.

Therefore, the old man also wants to see what this divine power is! "

Fang Xiu heard this, and said calmly: "Give me 1000 taels of silver, and I will tell you what Shenwei is, and how it is made, how about it?"

Hearing this, the British Duke showed suspicion, looked Fang Xiu up and down, and said angrily: "You will be so generous?

I am afraid that you will only talk about this divine power if His Majesty asks about it, right? "

Fang Xiu shook his head and said, "You underestimate my nephew."

The British Duke thought for a while, and said: "Okay, 1000 taels of silver is 1000 taels of silver, and you tell me how Shenwei was created, what has it to do with God's punishment, why it has such a huge power, and why Can it still exert its power on the sea?"

Fang Xiu smiled, and said lightly: "It's very simple, Shenwei is to throw out the punishment of heaven... that's all."

"This......"

Hearing this, the British public didn't know what to say.

At this time, Fang Xiu took out a fire stick from his bosom, pointed it at the British Duke, and said, "It seems that the thing my nephew is holding is another kind of divine power, but I prefer to call it... ...firecrackers!"

Chapter 743 Miss Zhao is back!

Firearms?

The British prince looked at the fire stick in Fang Xiu's hand, with a suspicious expression on his face.

He really couldn't imagine what kind of weapon such a fire stick was, and what use it could be.

"What's the use of this thing?"

After staying in Fangfu for a while, the British Duke also learned a lot of truths.

What impressed me the most was what Fang Xiu often said: "Ask if you don't understand."

So he asked.

After Fang Xiu heard this, he didn't answer him. Instead, he showed a faint smile and aimed his firecracker at the stone bench beside him.

Bang-!

A muffled sound...

I saw a burst of sparks appearing on the stone bench, and then, something unbelievable happened!

The stone bench was actually cracked!

Looking at the scene in front of him, the British Duke was stunned when he heard the thunderous momentum.

He seemed to understand something, and stared blankly at the firecracker.

I was speechless for a long time.

As a general on the battlefield, no one understands the power of this firecracker better than him.

This is a whole new way of fighting.

Heaven's Punishment, God's Might, plus this firecracker.

From now on, I'm afraid that all we need to do is to keep the Shenji Camp!

Others, even the so-called martial arts practiced by the elites of various important towns, are probably useless in the slightest!

This gun...

The British public looked at the firecracker, not knowing what to say.

After a while, his eye sockets became a little red.

He raised his eyes, stared at Fang Xiu, and said hoarsely, "Do you know what this firecracker means?"

When Fang Xiu heard this, his face showed disdain, and he said lightly: "This firecracker was invented by Ben Hou Ye, do you think Ben Hou Ye knows what it means?"

Hearing this, the British public didn't know how to answer for a while.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door.

After a while, I heard a voice from outside, "Master, Miss Zhao is back!"

Zhao Yan?

When Fang Xiu heard the news, he was slightly taken aback.

It has been a month since Zhao Yan left the capital.

During this period of time, he was not afraid of people looking for him.

It's just that there are various indications that Zhao Yan is protected by master-level masters, so there is no need to look for it, let alone send someone to protect it.

Later, he didn't take this matter to heart.

"Where is she?" Fang Xiu asked.

"Miss Zhao, she..." The boy was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xiu heard a familiar voice: "This princess is here!"

Zhao Yan appeared in front of Fang Xiu.

Fang Xiu was still in a daze.

Still a familiar face, still a familiar temperament, or a familiar voice.

But I always feel that she is much more haggard than before. If you look closely, you will find that her hair has a lot more gray hair than before.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu felt a little annoyed for some reason, frowned, and was about to reprimand Zhao Yan.

At this time, the British princess next to him hurriedly saluted: "See Your Royal Highness!"

"You don't need to be too polite!"

Zhao Yan waved her hand.

Before raising his hand, he was actually much more dignified than before.

Um......

It looks more like a princess than before.

The British Duke's eyes stayed on Zhao Yan for a while, then looked at Fang Xiu, seemed to understand something, bowed his hands, and said: "The old minister will leave first, Your Royal Highness, let's talk..."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Fang Xiu glanced at him angrily, didn't say anything, just looked at Zhao Yan, "Where have you been these days, and don't tell me."

If it was before, Zhao Yan's answer would have been: 'Who are you?You have to control where this princess is going! '

However, at this moment, her answer was a faint sentence: "Go find someone."

Hearing this, Fang Xiu always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart for no reason, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Zhao Yan looked at Fang Xiu and replied, "Prince Ning."

Fang Xiu's heart skipped a beat, looking at Zhao Yan's eyes, as if he understood something, he asked, "You know?"

In fact, judging by Zhao Yan's expression, he can guess it without answering.

Sure enough, Zhao Yan nodded and said, "I found it."

"..." Fang Xiu remained silent, still silent.

I do not know what to say.

After a while, Zhao Yan showed a smile on her face and said, "You were comforting me before, right? You knew that there was no cure for the poisonous Gu?"

When Fang Xiu heard this, his expression froze slightly and he didn't speak.

Zhao Yan took a step forward and said, "I've heard about all the things you did with Hao'er.

If you knew that there was a solution to this poisonous Gu, you would definitely not do such a thing. Your intentions are so obvious that anyone in the capital can see it.

You didn't do things like this before, and you didn't leave yourself a way out this time. If Hao'er fails, your Kyoto Prefecture won't be able to stay any longer.

Your whole Fangfu can't stay in Chu State any longer, you won't do such a thing unless...you know what's going to happen!

The royal father only has one year left to live! "

Fang Xiu remained silent, still not speaking.

Zhao Yan took another step forward, she could no longer maintain a smile on her face, her eyes became a little red again, and she said, "I should have thought about it a long time ago, since the incident with King Ning, you are no longer like yourself .

Advising the father and the emperor, taking the women's imperial examination, suppressing pirates, and setting up free academies, these things don't look like you did them at all.

I knew it!

I knew you must have something to hide from me! "

The more she spoke, the more decadent her tone became, tears filled her eyes.

Fang Xiu raised his eyes, looked at Zhao Yan, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Who told you all this? Is there anything I promised you that I didn't do?

How do you know that your father only has one year to live?

Indeed, there is no cure for the poisonous Gu laid down by King Ning, even if the Shangguan enshrined returned to the capital, there is no way.

The reason why I didn't ask His Majesty to send so many people to the grassland to look for Shangguan to enshrine is because I know that this poison... has no cure!

However, there is another way!

Just because I didn't tell you doesn't mean it doesn't exist!

I said it's difficult, but it doesn't mean it's impossible! "

Zhao Yan was slightly taken aback when she heard this. For some reason, she had a vague feeling that what Fang Xiu said seemed to be correct.

It seemed that... what Fang Xiu said was true!

But, why has she never heard him mention it?

Zhao Yan thought for a while and asked, "What is the solution?"

Fang Xiu's expression was very solemn. He walked up to Zhao Yan, looked at her, and asked solemnly, "If I tell you, is there any reward?"

Zhao Yan looked at Fang Xiu, took a deep breath, and just said one word: "Get lost!"

Chapter 744 I'm not even as good as a child

Seeing her like this, Fang Xiu finally felt the familiar Zhao Yan.

A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Naturally it is the method of opening the skull."

"How to open the skull?" Zhao Yan was stunned when she heard this.

She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have heard of this method before, but she thought it was too dangerous and didn't take it to heart.

But......

Does this craniotomy really work?

"Will it be too dangerous? And the body is so skinny, I am afraid that the father will not easily agree to the operation."

Zhao Yan said with a worried look on her face.

Fang Xiu said: "This is just the worst plan, no one knows what will happen tomorrow, His Majesty's body is sick today, maybe he will be cured tomorrow, and the poisonous Gu will dissipate by itself.

Who can tell?Anyway, there's still half a year left, let's take a look first, and let's talk when there is really no other way. "
