Yunchu has a study room at home, which is a separate house in the most remote part of the backyard.
Ever since the last time Naha took out a bomb and threw it for fun and was beaten by Yun Chu, Yu Xiurong has not allowed anyone to approach her husband's study, not even Yun Jin or the others.
When Yun Chu left, he placed strict restrictions on Yu Xiurong, so this place is regarded as Yun's forbidden area.
Yu Xiurong cried so much today that Yun Chu felt somewhat guilty, so he took Yu Xiurong to the study.
It had been a long time since Yunchu had entered the study. After Yu Xiurong opened the lock on the study door, a stale smell came from inside.
"Since my husband went to the Western Regions, I have strictly followed my husband's requirements. No one is allowed to enter the study. I only occasionally open the window for ventilation."
No one has entered the study room for more than two years, and everything is covered with a thick layer of dust.
"I won't let you get close, not because I'm afraid you might know something, but because there are some mechanisms inside, which are very dangerous."
As Yun Chu spoke, he lowered his body, opened the third square brick, cut a thin silk thread, took out a round cake-shaped iron block from it, handed it to Yu Xiurong and said, "This is a piece of iron."
Pressure mines have flint inside to ignite the fire. As long as someone's feet stand on the square brick, the square brick will fall and rub the flint. The flint will ignite the fuse and then explode. Such a mine is buried in this house.
There are six of them, and as long as one of them triggers, these connected threads will detonate the remaining five together, and the explosion is powerful enough to blow up the house."
Yu Xiurong's hands were visibly trembling. Yun Chu took the mine and put it on the window sill. He then inserted the candle he brought on the candlestick. He first looked at the bookshelf covered with spider webs, and then pulled a thick book
The thick "Zi Yi", and then the bookshelf slid to the left quietly.
Yun Chu walked into the darkroom holding a lantern, pointed to a row of wooden boxes and said: "These are the most powerful gunpowder bombs in the world. The court's thunder and fire bombs are not as good as these."
Yu Xiurong's body began to tremble again, and she said tremblingly: "So, your husband was responsible for the Xianyang Bridge explosion back then?"
Yun Chu looked back at Yu Xiurong and nodded: "I originally wanted to blow up the famous Tibetan general Lun Qinling, but only his brother was killed. Looking back now, it was really too reckless at the time."
When she saw her husband opening the wooden box and looking at the gunpowder bombs inside, Yu Xiurong felt cold all over. She leaned closer to her husband, hugged his arm and said, "Where are those bad rumors?"
Yun Chu put down the gunpowder bomb in his hand and said to Yu Xiurong: "In fact, eighty percent of the rumors about me are true, but they were exaggerated by outsiders, so no one believed them."
Yu Xiurong felt that under the leadership of her husband, her whole family had already done enough to punish the nine clans...
Yun Chu knocked on the wooden box and said: "This thing used to be very important, but now it is very common. Five thousand kilograms of gunpowder were taken from Changsun Wuji's house. If Li Ji's house was taken, it is estimated that several thousand kilograms could be taken. Li Yifu's house, Xu Jingzong's house,
It is estimated that many copies can be made from the Queen's Palace, which may even be comparable to the inventory of the Ministry of War, so don't worry.
When I have some free time in a few days, I will take you to practice how to use this thing."
After saying this, Yu Xiurong's heart calmed down. My husband was able to be knighted for his merits and become the Marquis of Lantian in Guan Nei in just twenty years. To put it shamelessly, this achievement can be compared with Huo Qubing's.
It is impossible to say that someone who has made such great achievements at such a young age is honest and aboveboard. Although the right path can make people move up all the way, without the help of strange paths, I am afraid that they will not be able to reach such heights just by following the right path.
The Yun family is a small family, and the husband will naturally do everything possible for the future prosperity of the Yun family.
"So, your husband is not actually a good person in the true sense. However, if you marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog, it's too late for you to regret it now."
When Yu Xiurong saw her husband joking, her heart suddenly tightened. She hugged Yun Chu tightly and said, "I like to be a thief."
Yunchu patted Yu Xiurong's back, then lowered his body and pulled out a smaller wooden box from under the shelf where the gunpowder bombs were placed.
After opening the wooden box, Yu Xiurong found that it was filled with letters. A quick glance at the handwriting revealed that they were letters written by her husband.
Yu Xiurong opened the top volume of the notebook. The cover of the notebook had the four words "Elementary Geometry" written on it. After opening it, he found that it was full of graphics and strange symbols. Every Yu Xiurong knew the words above, but, said
Something she didn't know anything about.
Yun Chu took the book and put it in the box, closed the lid and said to Yu Xiurong: "I have recorded all my knowledge, if not all, it can be said to be most of the knowledge I know.
If a child can master one of these subjects, he will be far superior to the doctors of the Tang Dynasty. If he can master them all, this child may be able to obtain an honor that will last forever."
When Yu Xiurong heard her husband bragging more and more, she wanted to see some hint of lying on his face, but in the end, she only saw a serious look on his face.
Yun Chu patted Yu Xiurong's pale face and said, "If you are too busy, just try to learn it yourself. You are also a learned woman. From the beginning, you should be able to get started.
The children are still young, so you can take care of them for two years. When the children are older, leave them to me and I will teach them the true knowledge of the Yun family."
Yu Xiurong leaned over and picked up the box of notes and said: "You can't put it here. If it is eaten by rats, I will commit suicide. Give it to me, and you must keep it well and not let outsiders know."
Yun Chu looked around the dark room, sighed slightly and said: "The Queen is beginning to doubt me. I don't know why she doubts me. This is what makes me feel helpless the most.
However, one thing I am sure of is that the Queen may have learned something about me and feels that I threaten her.
During this period of time, all we have to do is live peacefully as usual, without doing anything extraordinary, and see if we can get by."
"What if I can't get past it?"
Yun Chu smiled, looked into Yu Xiurong's eyes and said, "Then I have no choice but to take you and the children up the mountain to become the king of the mountain."
"My husband won't kill you just by pointing your neck?"
"No, even if I poke a hole in the sky, I won't kill you on the spot. That is the stupidest behavior."
Yu Xiurong didn't know why, but suddenly thought of the group of old thieves imprisoned in Wannian County Prison, and his body began to tremble again.
"Husband, are we going to be bandits?"
Yun Chu sneered: "Don't worry, even if your husband becomes a bandit, he must be the biggest bandit in the world."
"What should you do with Chang'an?"
After Yu Xiurong asked this question, she found that the excitement in her husband's eyes slowly disappeared immediately.
Finally, Yun Chu patted the dusty table and said indifferently: "I will not sacrifice my life for my ideal, let alone sacrifice my wife, children and children for my ideal. So, you pray now that the Queen will not kill me."
Yun Chu locked the door of the study room, and Yu Xiurong followed behind with a wooden box in his arms. The two of them returned to the bedroom without saying a word. Yun Chu was drinking tea with a heavy heart, and Yu Xiurong entered the inner room. After a while, he was full.
I came out of the room sweating profusely, and the wooden box was nowhere to be seen.
That night, Yun Chu told Yu Xiurong his secret. He slept peacefully, but Yu Xiurong kept his eyes open until dawn.
At Li Hong's insistence, Wu Mei waited until the water lilies bloomed, and then stepped into the heavenly garden that Li Hong had painstakingly managed for the first time.
Also accompanying him was the Buddhist girl Naha.
Wu Mei saw flowers blooming, but Naha saw a useless building made of copper coins.
This was the first time Li Hong saw Naha who had returned from the Western Regions. Ever since Naha appeared in his sight, his eyes had never left Naha.
It was already March 2nd, and the winter jasmine on the first floor was in full bloom. It was a seasonal flower, so there was nothing strange about it no matter how beautiful it was.
But it was this layer of winter jasmine flowers that made Wu Mei stop and linger. Not only were most of the jasmine flowers collected here, but also the uncommon spring flowers such as dragon claws, tiger hooves, forsythia, and small-leaf fragrant flowers.
There are flowers of the jasmine genus that bloom but do not grow leaves.
The jasmine flowers in the coldest area at the door are red because of the cold. Walking further inside, there is a large cluster of white jasmine flowers. After the red and white colors gradually change, there is an ocean-like bright yellow behind.
of winter jasmine.
The petals are different, but the color is the same. Except for this bright yellow, there is no other color.
Seeing the red, white and finally the boundless ocean-like yellow, Wu Mei looked at Li Hong tenderly.
She felt that this kind of arrangement was specially prepared for her by Li Hong, just like her life journey, she had experienced red years, then experienced pale times, and finally turned into a brilliant golden color...
Li Hong's eyes still fell on Naha. He hadn't seen her for more than two years. The little girl who accompanied him when he grew up had completely grown into a blooming flower. With her here, all the flowers in the house together were not as good as the others.
Naha's smile is beautiful.
"Did you borrow another thirty thousand yuan from me?"
Naha's unsightly words came out from the blooming flowers. Wu Mei couldn't help but chuckle. Li Hong's face turned red with embarrassment at Naha's question. However, he still said loudly: "Some Ah
It's just a blockage, how can it compare to the blooming flowers?"
Naha shook her head and said: "On my way back to Chang'an, I saw a lot of farmers in tattered clothes in Longzhong, I also saw half-dressed women, I also saw low earthen houses, shabby cities, and
Officials who only want to make money from us.
Li Hong, you are the prince, do you not care about these things?"
Li Hong shook his head and said: "Our world is too big to take care of everyone at once."
Naha said to Li Hong: "My brother never hesitates to give clothes, food, and money to beggars. As long as he sees it, he will definitely help. Although this is nothing compared to the number of poor people, but,
The beggars who have been rescued by my brother can feel the meaning of what he did."
Seeing that her always strong son suddenly became unable to speak, Wu Mei took Naha's hand and said, "If you often tell the prince these things, he won't like you anymore."
Naha looked at the queen and said: "My brother said that as long as the emperor does the emperor's job well, the ministers do the ministers' job well, and the people do the common people's job well, given time, this Tang Dynasty will definitely become a place where everyone has food to eat.
When everyone has clothes to wear, it will be a good time for us to enjoy the flowers together."
Li Hong looked at Naha in horror as if he had seen a ghost. At this moment, he felt that what he was seeing was not Naha, but that nasty guy Liu Rengui!
