"Ah owe——"
In the backyard of Jinchengfang Mansion, Li Ang sneezed, and the milling cutter suspended in his palm slowly stopped cutting the metal plate.
On the other side of the metal plate, He Fanshuang, who was wearing goggles, raised his head and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Li Ang shook his head, suppressed his doubts, took the coat from Chai Chai, and put it on.
Most of the classmates in the academy have gone to work in various places. Li Ang and He Fanshuang, who are still in Chang'an, want to do their best to do something for the Yu State.
For example, improving the talisman board of the next-generation spiritual energy machine will improve efficiency and save manufacturing costs.
Originally, this project was supposed to be done in collaboration with Dr. Su Feng, but for some unknown reason, the latter had been staying in the mountain chief’s original study during this period and rarely went out to meet people. Li Ang and the others visited several times, but were rejected.<
/p>
"How about cutting this area thinner?"
"Increase the spiritual energy flux... Well, then this place needs to be thicker..."
The two discussed the configuration of the talisman board, and the tacit understanding brought about by years of getting along has greatly improved efficiency.
Before you know it, the sun has set, and the progress of carving the talisman board has reached three-quarters. In another two days, a preliminary plan will be formed, and the next step will be to improve it step by step until the finished product is released.
"It's time to eat."
The call of Chai Chai rang out in the living room. Li Ang took off his goggles and asked He Fanshuang, "Are you going to eat here?"
"No."
He Fanshuang shook his head, took off his gloves and put them on the vine stand nearby, "My brother and sister-in-law came back today and ate at home."
He Siping had already made an engagement with his long-time lover and classmate of the Academy last year. He originally planned to get married in June this year, but had to postpone it because of the floods in Xingzhou.
However, this does not affect He Siping's official marriage and moving to a new house in Changlefang.
In this case, Li Ang no longer wanted to stay and looked at He Fanshuang's back as he walked out of the courtyard.
He walked back to the living room, finished dinner with Chai Chai, wrote something in the study as usual, and at the same time put his thoughts into the cave outside Chang'an City.
Rumble——
In the well-insulated cave, the roar was deafening.
Hundreds of tentacles made of ink silk are forming some kind of huge structure.
Not enough.
Even after Mo Si is completely released, he can compare to a martial arts master, but it will still not be enough to cope with the stormy waves in the next few years.
[In view of the general environment,
More strength is needed....
——————
Shengpingfang.
"I'm back."
He Fanshuang opened the door. Her parents, her brother He Siping, who had not been home for a long time due to busy work, and her sister-in-law Ying Banqing, who was about to leave the house, were already waiting at the dinner table with sumptuous dishes.
"Going to Jinchengfang again?"
He Siping joked: "Let's eat."
"Business in the academy." He Fanshuang explained seriously before sitting down next to Ying Banqing.
Ying Banqing was born in a school, one year younger than He Siping, lively and cheerful, and good at talking. She currently works in the palace and is responsible for protecting the preschool princes and daughters.
At the dinner table, the family chatted while eating, and they talked about official business.
"...Those Haotian believers are really annoying, because now it is inconvenient for them to enter and exit the city gate."
Ying Banqing held up the kuaizi and complained nonstop.
During this time, Haotian believers continued to rush to Chang'an from all over the Yu State. These people came in groups, neither resisting the government nor harassing others, but just went to pay homage to the Haotian Temple in Chang'an City and pray for Haotian thousands of miles away.
The leader prays for blessings.
During the day, one step at a time, blocking the road,
We dispersed in the evening, either staying at the homes of relatives and friends, or staying in restaurants and inns.
The imperial court was quite concerned about this
Ma Zhao, because the Yu State did not ban Haotian's belief, and there is no law prohibiting people from making pilgrimages, so we can't just catch him, otherwise it may cause a bigger disturbance.
"In the words of Shentu worshipers, these fanatical believers in Haotian are like languid, lean wolves in the wilderness. Courage is related to quantity."
Ying Banqing waved his Kuaizi and said: "One or two horses are nothing to be afraid of. Even if you are traveling alone, you can easily drive them away with a wooden stick.
But if they gather together, nine or ten horses, they will dare to choose people and devour them.
If the scale is hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, even a strong and tough army would dare to charge head-on.
Even though they are docile now, there is no telling what they will do when they exceed a certain number."
"What should we do? Is there no way to control them?"
He's mother asked quickly. Her children have all received education from the academy, and her son and daughter-in-law are also serving in the court. Of course, they must support Yu Guo unconditionally.
"There are methods. They are already being done."
Ying Banqing said: "I heard from my classmate that the imperial court plans to first raise the prices of accommodation, meals, and drinks in the Chang'an Inn. Haotian is a lie, but hunger is real. Believers without money will naturally leave.
Then find the leader of the group and exploit their weaknesses."
"Weakness?" Father He asked curiously.
"There will always be people they value."
Ying Banqing quickly put down the clean bowl and said casually: "For example, let's say there is news that the parents are sick, the brothers and sisters were beaten, the children are missing, etc. Even if the news is true or false, it must be known.
You should go back and take a look to feel at ease, right?
In this way, another group of people are screened out. When they want to come to Chang'an again, just block their tickets and issue a written ultimatum to prevent them from coming.
Without the support of his subordinates, the die-hard believers who remain in Chang'an City will not be able to cause much trouble."
Ying Banqing explained the inner secrets with a relaxed expression, but his tone did not hide his disgust for these Haotian crazy followers.
As a child of the Academy, she has traveled to other countries and seen with her own eyes the living conditions of ordinary people under the rule of other countries.
The Zhou Kingdom, which retained slavery, regarded people as commodities and could be bought and sold at will in the market.
Turkic serfs have been working as cattle and horses for their lords for generations, worse than livestock.
The people of Jing are ignorant and numb, and regard Haotian as the only way to escape. Farmers are even willing to burn grain to worship Haotian.
Taking the whole family to endure hunger.
These are all kingdoms that believe in Haotian,
Ying Banqing couldn't understand at all how people living in the Yu country would want their country to become like this.
It would be okay to say that these fanatical believers are all powerful people. After all, they will not be hungry if they are hungry. However, according to observations these days, the most fanatical group of people are mostly civilians.
"Okay, okay, it's rare to go home and stop talking about these unhappy things."
He Siping stood up with a smile, picked up the bowl on the table, and took it to the sink to wash the dishes.
Zheng——
The imperial palace badge on the side of his waist made a crisp sound. He Siping used his mind power to lift the bowl quickly, picked up the badge and looked at it carefully.
"What's wrong?"
Ying Banqing noticed the solemn expression on her fiancé's face, frowned and asked.
"Taihao Mountain,"
He Siping put down his badge and said solemnly: "I have published an article to criticize Yu."
