Nanjun's artillery is indeed powerful, and it is worthy of being produced by the Chinese Army Manufacturing Office that has hollowed out its internal funds.

The fortifications on the top of the city were blown to pieces, the walls were repaired at night and bombarded during the day, with no gaps in between.

The "tacit understanding" between the two sides is still there, but because a hole card was smashed, the poor hair department resumed its cautious exploration, and no longer desperately pressed the army, but sent this mobile fort to land at a fixed time and a distance. Throwing a few cannonballs, it's like rushing to work.

"The Central Military Building Office..." Zhou Tan lowered his body, and even found a nest on the top of the wall to sit down: "It is impossible to do things for them with all my heart."

The Central Military Building Office is an institution that sleeps on a pile of silver ingots and golden nests. Not to mention the hollowed out money, the court jokingly said that even the queen's dowry was poured in.

Taking people's money may not be done wholeheartedly, and the imperial guards have always complained a lot, saying that the government has money and has nowhere to spend it, and can make a lot of things that are not useful.

Before the words fell, the cannon went silent, humming and panting, and stopped moving.

Zhou Tan poked out half of his head from the depression at the top of the city wall. His lips were dry and chapped by the cool wind, and there was an itching mixed with pain from the wind.

No one knows how long this line will be dragged on, how many people will be dragged into the water, if people in the north see that the Chinese Army Building Office has also fallen into the water and extend their hands, the north-south boundary line is already a balance like thin ice The barriers are bound to be broken again, and decades of hard work will be burned.

"The hand is so long..." Zhou Tan rubbed the fingertip on his fingertips, his voice was barely audible: "Uncle, uncle..."

Yujing, Yanyi Garden.

Jin Mingwei's cases have been investigated a lot, and there is a net hidden behind each one. He is a wealthy family, bullying men and women, corrupting the law, and things that have been covered up in the bed have been turned upside down by some seemingly trivial cases.

After all, the nobleman is busy with work, so he may not feel that the vegetable vendor's loss of a few baskets of vegetables will involve himself.

It happens to be extremely evil.

Dali Temple is good at being a fig leaf, but before the small case is handed over to them, it is like a thunder, blooming in the neighborhood court.

After a fight, no one went to the streets to find a crutch. The matter of Botou Mohua had not been clarified yet, but the emperor's attitude became more and more ambiguous day by day.

Jin Mingwei didn't care about the nobles in the palace, whether the emperor wanted to investigate the case or not, if he went all the way to the end, he would always have a backer.

Yanyi Garden also raises a group of leisurely and wealthy fat-headed fish. The fish live more comfortably than humans, and they can stay around the hot springs to warm and nourish their bodies after overwintering.The mist was steaming on the water, and a corner of the pavilion was half covered, and there were only a few people.

Swallow sinking willow smoke, Yanyi first snow, these two scenes in Yujing city are the most eye-catching this year.

How to say the garden is also a famous royal garden in the previous dynasty. People who want to buy it can line up for two miles. The Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce stepped in and bought it from the original owner at a high price. Come in handy.

The door is opened to welcome guests, and the princes and ladies who come to visit are detained in the front garden along the river, and the back garden generally does not welcome guests. Only today, another door was opened under the embankment, the snow on the driveway was swept away, and a roll of velvet was swept away. The blanket was spread out.

Shang Hengzhi was wrapped in silver fur, rolling around like a silver ball.As soon as the lady of the Chen family's car stopped at the embankment, there was a line of servants holding silk lanterns to greet her.All the clothes and skirts are on the ground, and the hairpin rings are shaking.

It was the first time for Chen Yurou to go to the Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce's banquet. When she got off the car, she was greeted by a blanket, and the soles of her feet didn't have to touch the slippery snow. She wrinkled her nose slightly, and secretly said, "It smells so good."

She was wearing Jinbuyao, a magnificent color, but there was no uncomfortable feeling on her body. A pair of gold earrings with lotus and mandarin ducks, and a pair of watery eyes set off freshly.

"Little lady." Shang Hengzhi just rolled down from the slope, saluted, without saying a word, saw the little lady raised her head with an earnest expression.

Chen Yurou lowered the car curtain and said, "It's inappropriate to use incense trays with such lanterns."

"What?" Shang Hengzhi poked his ears, as if there were some new rules for the ladies.She led the way, the light of the lantern cast on the insteps of her feet.

The girl from the Chen family grabbed her sleeves and spoke again, with a very serious expression: "The silk from Goose Creek and the yarn from Changyun are soaked in special spice powder before they are used to make lanterns. If the spices collide, it is a taboo." .”

The Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce is not short of money. After all, he was born in Yeluzi. At the beginning of his fortune, he still drank snow and ate sand in the north, unlike Yujing who was poor and would rather starve to death.But the Chen family, the Chen family... The Chen family had been in charge of a silk weaving company in the previous dynasty!

"really?"

"The chamber of commerce invited me..." she said, "It's probably for this reason that I put on such a posture of red makeup."

"Jin Mingwei..." Shang Hengzhi said, "The one who invited the young lady to meet him is Jin Mingwei."

"Let's go." Chen Yurou wrapped her fur coat, buried her chin in her fur, her face was pale, and her eyebrows seemed to be stained with ink.

Half a dozen Jin Mingwei, who are investigating cases, are stationed in the back garden. Passing by the door, you can hear the sound of flipping pages. Documents, case files, and secrets of all parties are coded and landed here through water and land. Chen Yu Without squinting, Rou followed the lantern lightly.

The bricks under her feet were all engraved with patterns, but when she stepped on them, the tactile sensation was distinctly different. There was a slight echo under some bricks. She lowered her eyelids and said in her heart, "Hollow bricks."

The tea pot is floating on the lake, and thick mutton soup is burning on the charcoal stove.The tea boats of the Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce are released every morning, from the upstream pier along the Yanshen River all the way through Yujing City, the boat has everything you need to eat, drink, and play, and you can enjoy the scenery for a long time while on the boat. There is no spring scenery left along the coast. , but there is a thin layer of snow on both sides of the bank, which can be regarded as a sight to see.

It's really rich and powerful to just float tea in his own garden.

Lu Chengyan rolled up the curtain and nodded.

"I met the general." Chen Yu greeted softly.

"If you need something, please trouble me."

"If it weren't for the general's help, my brother would have been involved in the old case for a long time..." Chen's daughter said, her wrist shook slightly, and the tea poured down, causing slight ripples: "If the general asks, you should be honest in public and private treat."

"Mr. Chen Jialang went to the Chinese Army Building Office a few years ago?"

"Yes..." Chen Yurou replied: "As a supervisor, someone who can only play with writing is an outsider."

The emperor organized the "Fire Watching Ceremony" ingeniously, and invited the Xisha mission, which was still lying in the post house, to watch it together.

No one knows what new things they want to see with great fanfare. Looking at Yujing, Jin Mingwei is investigating cases everywhere. The imperial army has nothing to do, eat, drink and fight. The only one who is so busy running around on the street every day is the Zhongjun Zaiban government.

If you want to ask about such a matter, you should investigate it yourself. It is really unnecessary to drag the Chen family girl into the water.

Lu Chengyan didn't continue to ask questions, but Chen Yurou turned his face slightly, sliding his slender fingertips up and down on the table, and his lips parted slightly: "New product, it is said to be a cannon."

"You don't have to answer." Lu Chengyan said.

Chen Yurou just smiled, still looking calm, with a string of East China Sea beads hanging down to cover her eyelids, she said word by word: "If you ask the general, you will know everything."

Artillery is considered a rare thing in the north and the south. It was a flash in the pan more than ten years ago. It appeared once or twice on the border between the north and the south. After that, it fell silent. There is the Chinese Military Building Office in the south and the Ordnance Department of the Central Tent in the north. , have never launched any sharp weapons that can bombard the city wall.

The Ordnance Department has been struggling all day long, and as for the Chinese Army Manufacturing Office in the capital of Nanjun...it looks like a decoration for the imperial palace.

I didn't expect it.

The girl from the Chen family got up, her voice faintly said, "I still can't let the Chen family in Langzhou be the master, but if the general can use it, the silk workshop of the Chen family in the city will be at your disposal."

This little lady looks weak and slender, and she is the youngest in Chen's family. She actually holds half of Chen's hole card in Langzhou - Sijuanfang.

No wonder the emperor stared at her, wanting to ration his son to be his concubine.The internal money is empty, and the son can exchange it for money, which is a good deal.

Sai Siduo came to the city with two dark circles under his eyes, and pulled Zhou Tan's arm.The cannon fired for a while and rested for a while, and there was no sound at the moment.There was no sound on the snowy field, as if an impending storm was brewing.

Zhou Tan's mind was muddled for a while, he could pretend to be calm, but the fights on the school field and the debates on paper were nothing compared to reality, he held the saber in his left hand, and tightly grasped He Lianyun's sword in his right hand knife.

The snow water dripped, and a pool of silver light flashed by.

It was still a stalemate, and no one was the first to try to make a shot.Six or seven days had passed so hard, and no one dared to relax their nerves. The balance on the steel wire was bound to end with one party's relaxation.

"Have you eaten?" Seth asked.

Zhou Tan nodded slightly at her, only to hear a loud sound of landslides and ground cracks, and someone rode a horse from the snow field, hissing in the wind.

"Ji Jiazi..." A Gulei said, "Do you dare to fight me?"

His surname is not Ji, but he is the eldest son of Princess Qinghe. The world recognizes the princess even if it does not recognize the emperor, so the world looks up to him, pities him, and respects him. , That's something nobody cares about.

Zhou Tan didn't answer, Sai Siduo pressed the bow on his waist, and looked sideways at his tense jawline.

No one responded.

"The blood of Zhongzhou's iron wall..." A Gulei said with a mixed smile, "It's a soft-legged shrimp who can only make a living in the bed tent."

There was a commotion in the city, and someone responded with something.Zhou Tan actually laughed a little jokingly, he raised his hand to signal the people in the city, and only said: "Challenge."

With a whistle, Xuezhaoshan dashed out from under the city, catching Zhou Tan's jumping body. There was no angry expression on his face, and there was even a layer of gentle waves in his eyes.He actually jumped onto the horse's back like a cloud from the terrifyingly high city head.

Obviously it was the enemy's first move, but Sesduo seemed to feel that this single-handed duel was in Zhou Tan's arms.

The author says:

Thank you very much everyone, and when it is time to catch up on the paper at the end of the term, the inspiration really comes and goes.

I chatted happily until late last night, and I also thought about such a "luxury and lustful" life like the general hahaha.
