The advancement of science and technology can suddenly undergo a qualitative change at a certain point in time during the long accumulation, but thinking...is not easy, the human heart is the most complicated, and the cycle goes back and forth, and the old and new forces clash back and forth. In the interstellar era, there are still religions, and not everyone understands the technical principles of the core of warp speed.

Lan Jue strode in from the outside of the main hall, before he arrived, he had already said: "You ordered Chi Yuan to withdraw?"

"Yes." Chu Xiang turned around and bowed her head to salute, "It's an order from my subordinates. I can't let good girls die at the hands of a group of ungrateful people."

Lan Jue frowned lightly, looking not relaxed.

"My lord... For a king, only kindness is not enough. When necessary, you have to be cruel." Chu Xiang said in a low voice, "There will never be perfection in this world. In troubled times, heavy codes are used, even from the perspective of people's hearts. , it is too cruel to let the patients in the epidemic area die, but..."

Lan Jue suddenly raised her hand to stop Chu Xiang's speech, even her eyes were cold.

An invisible low pressure permeated the air. After a while, Lan Jue roughly pulled Chu Xiang, pressed him on the table, and knocked his back on the cold and hard table, forcing Chu Xiang to hum. On his neck, the anger that had lasted for more than a day had just subsided, and now it was hooked out again.

"So you took it upon yourself to order Chiyuan to evacuate?"

"Yes."

Lan Jue stared at his calm face, her teeth itch with hatred, she just wanted to bite him to death.

"Now everyone knows that Tang Guoguo is mysterious, cold-blooded and ruthless. He just watched the yellow-mouthed children rolling all over the floor with a high fever in the epidemic area, and refused to let the military doctor come forward to treat them... Chu Xiang, this king is just You are the Lord of the Tang Kingdom, and you are just a mere counselor, why do you stand in the way on your own initiative?"

Chu Xiang was dumbfounded, and felt the fingers on his neck tightened slightly, almost strangling him so that he couldn't breathe.

"I..." Chu Xiang opened her mouth, had trouble breathing, and couldn't speak.

"Everyone in the Tang Dynasty said that I, Lan Jue, valued love and righteousness, but now I can be cruel and let the people in the epidemic area fend for themselves. Someone must have been instigating it." Xiang knows how to use public opinion, and the enemy will too.

In the next second, Lan Jue pulled him up and carried him into his arms, still very hard, almost strangling him into darkness.

"The common people are very easy to be incited. The Xingxing Pavilion has been reused by the imperial family in the past few decades. Even the common people believe in such talk. Once the word "monster" is contaminated, if one day the people of the Tang Dynasty gather in front of my door, What do you want me to do if you want me to 'eliminate evil spirits'? Even maybe one day in the future, you and I will achieve our wish and win the world, but there are righteous men who gather in front of the palace gate and ask me to kill evildoers. On the side of the Qing Dynasty, I can knock down an old man Wen My brain, can I pick up the heads of all the people in the world and knock them on the stele?"

"... so what? Your majesty knows me, so you are not afraid of anything." Chu Xiang reluctantly pulled his hands out of his suffocating embrace, and slowly embraced the young king in front of him. On the battlefield, he dared to order a charge in the face of thousands of troops. At this moment, he was really shaking like an electric shock. Chu Xiang hugged him, but smiled brightly, "Report your favor on the golden platform, and carry Yulong to die for you!" ...If that's the case, it might not be a romantic ending."

"You're still laughing!" Lan Jue pinched his waist angrily, and poked his acupuncture points. Seeing the smiling face of the person in her arms suddenly turned into pain, she calmed down a little.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xiang laughed again in the next second, he leaned on Lan Jue's shoulder, fearless: "So what, when that day comes, even if you cut off my head and hang it at the city gate to calm people's hearts , when the time comes, I will see thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, beautiful and prosperous, and I can rest in peace even if I want to."

"You..." Lan Jue was extremely annoyed, and gritted her teeth, "That's too indecent. I'm afraid that later history books will say that I killed important ministers as soon as I came to the throne, which would make me appear petty. I still have to think about that for the sake of my century-old reputation, I'm sure Secretly find a dark room, lock you in, and directly strangle you to death with Bai Ling, don't worry, the king will definitely do it himself when the time comes."

"Okay." Chu Xiang pressed her forehead against Lan Jue's, her breathing was tangled, rapid and ambiguous, and it wasn't just because she was pinched just now, it was because of something else, "I'm very good, I won't resist, Bai Ling You can also save it, just pinch it with your hands."

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and gradually the people in the capital heard that several areas where the plague had occurred were sealed off, all military doctors, civilian doctors, and local officials were evacuated, and soldiers were directly sent to camp outside the village to prevent people inside from coming out. If you dare to come out, you will be killed on the spot.

In troubled times, people's hearts are fluctuating, many news are true and false, mixed with the rumors of deliberately provocateurs, people with discerning eyes have already seen that there is Qu Lingxin's handwriting here, no matter what benefits he promised, there are countless people who are willing to cooperate, Perhaps Qu Lingxin couldn't bring any real benefits at all, it's just that Chen Guo and Jin Guo didn't want to see the neighboring Tang country grow stronger.

There are a lot of shrewd strategists. The large-scale development of science and technology and the establishment of factories in the Tang State were not carried out in secret. It is not difficult to learn something from the teacher. It didn't take long for Jin State and Tang State to fight. According to the battle report, the Jin State actually used artillery on a large scale to suppress the Tang State's army, which was in full swing.

Artillery has always been a fixed defensive facility at the top of the city in the past, because a cannon is too heavy, and a few horses are pulled to the front line for thousands of miles. Generally, commanders cannot afford this consumption, so front-line commanders seldom consider it when confronting each other. Prevent artillery.

In Lu Yuan’s report, part of the state of Jin and Chen is close to the sea. In the past, large deep-water ships were built very solidly. This time, a ship that emits smoke has been produced. It is probably not much different from the railway trains under construction in China. But instead of running in the water, the steel cannons were transported by water to a nearby city, and then brought over by horses.

The artificers of the Academy of Sciences did not give up, and quickly invested in a new round of research. There were also many rivers in Tang Dynasty, but they were not as deep as those in Jin State and Chen State. The rivers were not wide enough, and deep-water ships could not go. Can we get some small "trains" that are not too big, that don't need to be laid on rails, and run on the ground?

Wars sometimes greatly increase production capacity and rapidly shorten the technological development cycle. Originally, Chu Xiang did not expect that the Academy of Sciences would think of "cars" by itself so quickly.

This is too fast!

In order to survive, for a better living environment, everyone is fighting.Especially the female engineers in the Academy of Sciences, they don’t even ask for wages, they work overtime in the laboratory because they know that their fate is entangled with Chu Xiang, Lan Jue, and Xin Tang Guo, and they cannot Segregated and replaced by another ruler, they may have to go back to the old days. The only goal in life is to wait for their parents to choose someone to marry when they grow up, and they will spend their lives in a mess.

No, never!Those who have seen the sun can no longer endure the endless night.

The newspaper under Gu Linzhi began to work overtime, trying to guide public opinion, trying to lead the disastrous epidemic in the epidemic area to be "the local residents did not respect Xingjun, and even questioned Xingjun's well-trained women's clinic, so they were punished."However, the effect is mediocre, barely forming a confrontation with the spies' remarks.

That's not good enough.

Chu Xiang looked at the reports from all over the place, and was too busy to comb her hair. She took the scissors several times and wanted to cut her hair short, but the sisters of the Bai family and Chu Hexing desperately stopped her from going back.

Until, another night.

Lan Jue processed the front-line battle reports overnight, and Chu Xiang was still thinking about how to deal with the epidemic. He was not prepared to really let those cities become dead cities. He would take action at the last moment. If the Chiyuan female soldiers apologized, they would really die of illness.

However, the surrender obtained in this way will still be a hidden danger in the future.Therefore, there must be better means, but with the current level of technology, Chu Xiang sighed, if he could do another trick and get some special medicine from the Federation Fleet, that would be great, but it’s a pity that those things It is definitely not as strong as the Silver Queen and Hummingbird, and it cannot pass through the black hole...

"...hiss...hiss..."

Chu Xiang threw away the memorial irritably. A strange noise made him feel even more uncomfortable. He frowned and asked loudly, "Bai Ning? What's that sound?"

The assassins outside opened the door, and Bai Ning said respectfully, "Sir, did our voice disturb you?"

"No, it's—" He suddenly stopped, his expression contorted for a moment, and then he whispered, "Go out, close the door, and leave me alone."

Bai Ning never questioned Chu Xiang's orders, and immediately closed the door and exited.

Chu Xiang held his breath and sat at the table. He waited quietly for a moment, and the long-lost strange noise sounded again, accompanied by his violent heartbeat.

——That is... that is the noise when the communication channel is interfered by interstellar rays!

"Who is it? Who is it!" He couldn't help asking, "Who's over there?"

"Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss..."

The noise lasted for a full 3 minutes, and Chu Xiang felt that she had waited as long as a century.

The universe is not silent. The signal passes through time and space, and is refracted many times by the layered space and gravity. In the end, the sound falling on Chu Xiang's channel is a little bit out of shape.

He hears—

"...This is the Youlan, the mothership of the Galaxy Fleet of the Interstellar Federation. I am Captain Han Yi. I have detected the signal of the Federation beacon... Are there any survivors? Please answer your time, place, designation and name... …if you cannot answer, please respond with the Fleet Emergency Contact Code…repeat…if there are any survivors, please answer…”

With a thud, the pen in Chu Xiang's hand fell on his knee, forming a long ink mark, and fell to the ground.

He heard himself answer:

"Interstellar Federation Galactic Fleet, Rear Admiral Chu Xiang, time and place unknown."

The noise in the channel sounded for half a minute, and the person on the other side asked:

"... Chu Xiang the Dragon Sparrow?"

"it's me."
