Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

Tang Jian said in a muffled voice, "Our Honglu Temple has a distinguished guest."

"Honored guest?" Feng Ran pondered, "Are you looking for me?"

"No," Tang Jian shook his head, "I'm looking for Zhang Shaoqing."

"That doesn't look very expensive."

Feng Ran snorted softly, instead of looking for him, the minister of the temple, when he came to Honglu Temple, he came to look for Zhang Dun who was under him?

Is this also called a distinguished guest?

Nonsense! ?

At this moment, a carriage suddenly passed by them.

Seeing the person sitting on the groom's seat, Feng Ran couldn't help rubbing his eyes. Why does this person look so familiar?

Damn, isn't this Your Majesty? !

Just when Feng Ran was surprised, Tang Jian's voice rang in his ears.

"No, the coachman is the honored guest."

Feng Ran: "???"

Chapter 442 Experiment!the power of gunpowder

Feng Ran's expression was dull, looking at the receding carriage, Zhang Dun was sitting in the carriage?

Your Majesty... actually drove the car for Zhang Dun?

He actually became Zhang Dun's groom?

Feng Ran gasped, looked at Tang Jian with numbness, and said, "What's the relationship between Zhang Dun and His Majesty?"

Tang Jian blinked and said, "Guess?"

The corners of Feng Ran's eyes twitched, and he suddenly thought of something about Zhang Dun.

He remembered that when Zhang Dun took part in the imperial examination for the first time, he became the champion of the new subject, which caused a great sensation.

And every subject beats other candidates.

For this reason, His Majesty specially promoted him and directly made him the county magistrate of Wannian County.

Afterwards, Zhang Dun's official career can be described as a steady rise. He was appreciated by His Majesty by complaining about grievances for an ordinary citizen, and was promoted to the Shaoyin of the Jingzhao Mansion.

Thinking about it now, there are some clues in it.

To offend a county magistrate as a county magistrate, no matter how you look at it, he offends the subordinates, and he offends not only the county magistrate, but all the princes in the court are almost completely offended by him!

With His Majesty's character, Zhang Dun should not be promoted, but Zhang Dun should be severely punished to appease the anger of the Dukes.

However, His Majesty did the opposite.

Instead of blaming Zhang Dun, he promoted him.

Later, when it was necessary to pursue the payment of the debts owed by all the officials, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not dare to accept the imperial decree. In the end, the matter fell on Zhang Dun.

Although Zhang Dun recovered the arrears, he also annoyed all the officials.

In Feng Ran's opinion at the time, Zhang Dun's official career had come to an end.

But in the end, he was fine!

Then there was a crisis in Hedong Road, Zhang Dun went there, and became Ping Kangbo when he came back.

Got two fiefs.

One of them is Pingkangfang!

At that time, not only the court, but also the city of Chang'an was dumbfounded.

What surprised Feng Ran the most was that Zhang Dun arrested Yu Tao, the young minister of Taichang Temple, for no reason, and Yu Tao died in the Jingzhao Mansion as a result.

Zhang Dun is still fine!

Not only that, but also became the young minister of Honglu Temple!

Although he was promoted publicly and descended secretly, but from the Shaoyin of the Jingzhao Mansion to the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple, he was still promoted in the official position!

Feng Ran originally thought it was Zhang Dun's ability, but now it seems that it is more than that!

There is no reason in the world for the emperor to drive his courtiers!

The more Feng Ran thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but said, "Could Zhang Dun be His Majesty's illegitimate son?"

"guessed wrong."

Tang Jian shook his head and said, "Guess again?"

Feng Ran said solemnly: "You can just tell the officer directly?"

"Tell you……"

Tang Jian drew his voice, and under Feng Ran's curious eyes, shook his head and said, "That's impossible!"

Feng Ran: "..."

Seeing Feng Ran getting angry, Tang Jian said patiently: "Feng Siqing, it's not that I don't want to say it, it's really impossible to say it."

As he said that, he pointed to the direction where the carriage was leaving, and said, "If I told you, what would I say if Your Majesty asked me about it afterwards? Your Majesty gave repeated orders at the beginning, and he was not allowed to reveal his identity to Zhang Dun."

Feng Ran's eyes flickered, and he said, "Zhang Dun doesn't know the identity of His Majesty?"

Tang Jian nodded and said, "Yes, Zhang Dun still thinks His Majesty is his second uncle."

Second Uncle... Feng Ran thought about the meaning of these two words, feeling a little strange, and said: "But they will always meet each other. When they go to court, it's just... that's how it is!"

Feng Ran suddenly remembered that His Majesty always used a screen to block himself during this period of time.

The excuse used was that he had a cold.

Now it seems that this is not the case!

He clearly didn't want Zhang Dun to recognize him!

Tang Jian smiled and said, "Do you understand now?"

Feng Ran nodded numbly, and immediately said with emotion: "Boy Zhang Dun...you have such a good life."

"If you have Zhang Dun's ability, you can too."

Tang Jian suppressed a smile and said.

Feng Ran smiled wryly and shook his head. If Zhang Dun had the ability, how could he have been bullied at Honglu Temple for so long?

It seems that we have to have a good relationship with Zhang Dun in the future... Feng Ran thought about it, and felt lucky again. Fortunately, he didn't make things difficult for Zhang Dun these few days, and didn't show him any shame.

Suddenly, Feng Ran's heart tightened, he looked at Tang Jian and said, "Tang Shaoqing, do you have something to do with Your Majesty?"

Tang Jian shook his hand and said, "No!"

"Then I'm relieved." Feng Ran breathed a sigh of relief instantly. If Tang Jian is also involved, then it's not Shaoqing who came to Honglu Temple, but two masters!

----

"We're here!"

In Yongyang Fang, Li Er steadily parked the carriage at the door of his house, and said to Zhang Dun who was sitting in the carriage.

"Second Uncle, I am a little embarrassed to ask you to drive the carriage."

Zhang Dun stepped down from the carriage and said.

"Come on." Li Er looked at him angrily and amusedly, how could there be any embarrassment on Zhang Dun's face?

Zhang Dun smiled, opened the big iron gate, pushed it open and led Li Er in.

Soon, he took out two things from the cellar.

Li Er looked at the thing in his hand and said, "What is this?"

"This is a dynamite bag." Zhang Dun handed him one of them and said with a smile.

"What's a dynamite bag?"

Li Er looked curiously at the boxy thing that was heavily wrapped in his hand.

He knew about the medicine bag, but he had never seen such a big one.

Zhang Dun smiled, "It's gunpowder inside."

There is also gunpowder in the Tang Dynasty, but the importance of gunpowder has not been realized yet.

I didn't even realize how powerful gunpowder can cause.

When he came to Datang, Zhang Dun made a lot of things that Datang didn't have, and specially hid them in the cellar, among which there were magic weapons such as dynamite packs.

As a person who traveled from modern times, gunpowder, a man would be obsessed with it.

After all, there is a saying in modern times, one sulfur, two nitrates and three charcoals, add some sugar to make it big!

Zhang Dun said with a serious expression: "This thing is very powerful, second uncle, be careful."

Li Er said with interest: "How big is it?"

Zhang Dun thought for a while, "Let's find a place to try later."

Li Er frowned and said, "Isn't your house okay?"

"..."

Zhang Dun is speechless, leave it at my house?I still have to live at home.

"What is this thing?"

Li Er set his eyes on another thing Zhang Dun was holding in his hand.

That thing is long, kind of like a stick.

Zhang Dun handed it to him and said, "This is a flintlock."

"gun?"

Li Er looked down and said, "It's a little different from the gun I thought of."

Zhang Dun said patiently: "It's almost like a bow and arrow."

"Bullshit."

Li Er frowned.

Bows and arrows have bow strings, and this so-called flintlock can't even see the bow strings!

"You will know later, second uncle."

Zhang Dun grinned and said, "Come on, let's try."

As he said that, he took out another explosive package and a fire bag from the cellar, grabbed Li Er's arm, got on the carriage again, and went outside Chang'an City.

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Zhang Dun deliberately took him to the field under Mu Qingcang's name.

Looking around, Zhang Dun was completely relieved that there was no one there.

Li Er looked at him a little funny, didn't he just use a gadget, as for running so far?

Zhang Dun didn't explain. He picked up a dynamite bag from his hand, ran to the field, then took out the fire bag in his arms, and blew it with a light hammer, and the red light came into view instantly.

Chapter 443 The Surprise Brought by the Flintlock

"what are you doing?"

Li Er walked behind him curiously and asked.

Zhang Dun didn't respond, but pointed the torch in his hand to the fuse of the explosive package.

sizzle-

The moment the explosive package was ignited, Zhang Dun pulled Li Er and ran back.

Li Er was compelled to run until he was 50 meters away before stopping. He said helplessly, "Zhang Dun, what's wrong with you..."

The voice hasn't fallen yet.
