After breakfast, Qin Yi led his soldiers and headed towards the palace city.

Because of her relationship with Si Qimei, she has made rapid progress, and this beauty is quite shy. Maybe one look at her will make the other person's cheeks fly.

Therefore, Qin Yi planned not to hold a meeting today, so as not to let the ghostly Ding Junhou and others see the problem.

But as a regent, he couldn't live leisurely, so he changed his route to the Ministry of War to inspect the work.

Nowadays, among the six departments of the imperial court, namely the Rites, Officials, Punishment, Works, Soldiers, and Husbands, the four with the heaviest tasks are the Gong, Bing, Lis, and Husbands.

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War are responsible for the reinforcement of Zhanjing, and the Ministry of War also has the additional forging work of Zhuge Liannu and crossbow chariots, which is a heavy task.

The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of the expenditures of the dynasty, and they have been fighting for years. In terms of wages, grain and grass, they need to be urgently collected and dispatched.

In addition, there is also the work of expanding the planting of new crops, which is a major event that benefits the country and the people and is also quite important.

This is why Si Qimei works even late at night.

For the sake of a bright future, many people are sacrificing their lives and blood on the front lines, and there are also many people who are making contributions and making continuous sacrifices day after day for the stability of the dynasty in the stable future.

As for the Ministry of Rites, it was a complete accident.

Because of Marquis Dingjun's proposal, many officials in the Ministry of Rites got busy and began to prepare the things needed to ascend the throne.

This situation made Qin Yi a little helpless. He was very curious when Zhao Kuangyin wore the yellow robe, did he accept it happily, or was he like himself, being pushed out of the market?

Of course, this dragon chair is not impossible to sit on. No time traveler can resist the temptation of the dragon chair.

It's hard to describe the feeling of being forced to sit on the dragon's throne.

After gathering his thoughts, Qin Yi arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of War. Just as he was about to enter, he saw a group of people at the door. He was suddenly startled.

This... you really get whatever you want!

The initiator who drove him to the throne, Marquis Dingjun, walked out of the Yamen under the respectful escort of many officials from the Ministry of War.

Coincidentally, this old man with a white beard and a kind face saw Qin Yi at a glance.

Not caring about being polite to his colleagues, Marquis Dingjun hurriedly stepped forward and asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Qin Yi dismounted and couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this. Why, he couldn't come to the Yamen of the Ministry of War?

"Shouldn't you be ready to lead your troops north?" Marquis Dingjun asked.

Good guy, this guy is too impatient.

For the first time, Qin Yi was urged to lead his troops into battle.

Many officials from the Ministry of War also came forward and bowed to salute.

After hearing what Marquis Dingjun said, the Minister of the Ministry of War asked, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of War is ready. How many troops and horses do you need to bring?"

I came here just to take a stroll... Qin Yi suppressed the curse in his heart and said, "There are already 250,000 soldiers and horses in Liukang. I only need to bring Yi Ziying with me."<

/p>

Marquis Dingjun clapped his hands and said, "That's easy. You can go north at any time. Maybe the prince will have breakfast in Zhanjing in the morning and have dinner in Wo City in the evening!"

You let me fly, right?

Qin Yi suddenly had black lines on his head.

Zhanjing is located in the south of Linzhan, while Wocheng is the border city of Liukang's southern region. It has now been captured and belongs to Linzhan.

To reach Wo City, you have to cross the entire Linzhan, and it will take three or four days at the earliest. Does this guy think he can fly?

Or is it that the other party is worried that he is letting go of pigeons and hopes that he will sit on the throne as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams?

Or maybe this is an illusion created by the other party, so that he can know that the other party is the most enthusiastic among all the courtiers to have him ascend the throne. After he ascends the throne, he will not forget the other party's benefits?

No matter what, Qin Yi does not intend to leave today.

After all, he and Si Qimei had just had a good time last night, and their relationship was heating up rapidly. How could they leave without saying goodbye?

No matter how fast we go, we have to be gentle at night and say goodbye to each other tomorrow before heading north.

After all, there is no rush to conquer Liukang.

Therefore, Qin Yi ignored Ding Junhou's hint and said to the Minister of War, "I came here to see how the two sharp weapons were being forged."

With the drawings, forging is no longer a problem. The question is whether it can be manufactured in large quantities and quickly.

This is a big test for the manufacturing technology of this era. Qin Yi doesn't know much about it.

The Minister of War immediately responded, "Reporting to the prince, after I got the drawings, I immediately asked the craftsmen to develop a prototype, and now I am testing the power."

Qin Yi nodded and asked, "Where is the test? I will go and have a look."

He had to find out how powerful these two instruments were before he could judge whether they could deal with Xiang Rong.

But you can’t just throw it into the battlefield without knowing anything. If it doesn’t work and you are completely defeated, it will be too late.

"It is now built in the military armament camp on the outskirts. There are many shooting ranges in it to test the power of weapons." The Minister of War said respectfully.

"Let's go and have a look." Qin Yi said this, then turned the horse's head and got on the horse.

The Minister of the Ministry of War signaled to the servants of the Yamen, led a few horses, and several officials of the Ministry of War, mounted their horses and followed Qin Yi towards the suburbs.

Many soldiers followed closely behind and escorted carefully.

Many Yamen guards were clearing the way in front.

The ostentation is not huge. After all, several important officials of the imperial court are out, and escorts are still needed.

There were many pedestrians on the street. Qin Yi did not gallop, but walked slowly.

Suddenly, he turned around and saw Marquis Dingjun following behind him like a shadow.

Why hasn’t this dog-skin plaster left yet?

Suppressing his thoughts, Qin Yi smiled and said, "Master Hou, do you have anything to do today?"

"Originally, there are, but I am also quite curious about how powerful the weapon developed by the prince is. If it is good, the prince might be able to bring a few of them to protect himself when he goes north to conquer Liukang." Marquis Dingjun replied respectfully.

Tao,

When Qin Yi heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and almost fell down.

Can you please stop talking about conquering Liukang?

He turned back expressionlessly, looked forward, and ignored the white-bearded old man.

After walking all the way, after spending some time, everyone left Zhanjing.

The guards guarding the city gate learned that the prince was out of the city and there were not many guards, so he quickly mobilized a hundred people to follow Qin Yi all the way and carefully guard him.

Although Qin Yi wanted to refuse, he knew that his subordinates would be worried, so he gave up the idea of ​​refusing.

Gradually, arriving at the western suburbs, Qin Yi led everyone along the forest path, and suddenly saw a group of soldiers blocking the road ahead and setting up a heavily guarded position.

If I remember correctly, this place is still several miles away from the armament camp, and a checkpoint has been set up. This shows that the precautions are quite tight.

Before reaching the check point, even if the Minister of War is here, he still has to use his waist card. Qin Yi took out the regent's waist card and continued to move forward after passing the inspection.

The Minister of the Ministry of War on the side explained in due course, "For inspection here, only those with waist badges of second-grade officials or above can pass. If others want to go forward, they must have documents issued by the Ministry of War, and they need to be stamped in two places.

Seal to pass."

Qin Yi was quite curious about the system of the armament camp and couldn't help but ask, "What are the two seals?"

"The seal of the Ministry of War, and my official seal." The Minister of the Ministry of War said respectfully.

Well, very strict... Qin Yi nodded.

After only 500 meters, there was another stuck point.

After passing four or five checkpoints along the way, Qin Yicai arrived in front of the armament camp.

All I saw in front of me was a very high gray wall, and in front of the wall, every hundred meters, there was a soldier standing guard.

In addition, there are teams of armored soldiers patrolling along the wall.

Behind the wall, you can see towering watchtowers and arrow towers, with scouts guarding them.

In fact, Qin Yi saw these extremely tall watchtowers before when he passed the second forest stop.

Obviously, the scouts on the watchtower had also seen them.

In front of the main entrance of the armament camp, there are many soldiers standing with swords, numerous horses and fortifications. It must be said that the security is very tight!

Seeing Qin Yi nod his head, the Minister of War felt slightly relieved.

He was worried all the way that Qin Yi would be dissatisfied with this inspection work.

In front of the camp gate, use your waist badge to pass inspection and then register in the register. All visitor information must be registered.

Including the number of people, as well as each person's name and position, must pass the waist card review and cannot be changed.

Then, a strong man came quickly.

Qin Yi saw the other party, and he was Ning Duwei, the guard general of the armament camp.

Captain Ning stepped forward and said respectfully to Qin Yi, "General, I will pay my respects to the prince!"

Qin Yi nodded, "No need to be polite, I came here to see the power of Zhuge's crossbow and crossbow chariot."
To be continued...
