Chapter 768 Half for the Country and Half for the King
Zhao Changhe knows nothing about guns and artillery. He has even read very few historical time travel articles. He really can't make any useful improvements. But it doesn't matter. What happens in the future is a matter of the future. For now, the level of this artillery is enough.
.When the world realizes the advantages of this thing, it will naturally continue to develop. The premise is how the emperor views it. Chi Chi obviously does not have this problem.
At present, it can only be regarded as a cannon. Greater development may require comprehensive industrialization changes... The current productivity of the Han Dynasty is obviously not enough. Even if it is enough, I don't know what it will do in this world where swords can have souls.
Let’s talk about whether different technology trees will be distorted.
Zhao Changhe was not sure, and he did not want to provide his half-full knowledge to guide him. It might be misleading, so it was better to let it develop.
So I just confirmed the production schedule and walked away with Chichi Wanzhuang contentedly.
"I really didn't expect... When I was overseas, it was just a suggestion. I didn't expect any progress within a few years. I really didn't expect that it would bear fruit at this time." The three of them were strolling on the way back to the city. Zhao Changhe was quite puzzled.
Some sighs.
"As long as you have the intention, this is the reason." Xia Chichi smiled and said: "In addition, it is also because someone is particularly attentive to your instructions, otherwise the results would not be so fast."
Tang Wanzhuang glanced at her, somewhat pleading, "Stop talking."
Xia Chichi was unmoved and still said with a smile: "The cost of doing this is not small. At that time, we were so poor that we could hardly afford official salaries, so we allocated funds for this matter. All the ministers in the court strongly opposed it...
...The Minister of the Ministry of Finance was originally considered someone's party, but it was rare that he opposed someone in the court. He was public-minded, and someone had a bad temper. At that time, he was really the enemy of all living beings, and his pretty face
It’s so pretty when you’re so stuffy and blushing…”
Zhao Changhe turned to look at Tang Wanzhuang, who suppressed her blush and refused to look at him.
Xia Chichi put her hands behind her back and said leisurely: "I also know that because it is the order of 'Your Majesty' in someone's heart, I will do it no matter what... I will spend half my life for the country and half my life for you. Tsk, I'm so touched."
Tang Wanzhuang couldn't help but couldn't bear it and said: "Who said that? It's because I really think it makes sense! Besides, it's not you who makes the decision!"
"Yes, as long as the two of us join forces, there will be no resistance to anything." Xia Chichi smiled and said: "You haven't seen many of the excerpts, which are quite interesting... You know, when Lu Jianzhang was crowned, your
Your authority has long since ceased to be the head of the Demon Suppression Department. What you do is basically the work of the Prime Minister. Some people wrote a letter saying that they want to make you the Prime Minister. But then they gradually stopped mentioning it. It’s not that they have any objections to you, but to you and me.
The relationship is too close, and it is not suitable for you to be the prime minister anymore, and the restriction on the monarch's power has been lost."
Tang Wanzhuang actually laughed: "They really thought I was with you."
"Yes, now you and I have the same goal, so if we look at each other as a group, you might actually want to tear me apart."
"..." Tang Wanzhuang stared into the distance without answering.
Xia Chichi smiled and said: "How about it? Tomorrow there will be a meeting where one of the venerables will be in command, and the other will make you the prime minister."
Zhao Changhe couldn't help but interject: "Then why didn't you establish the prime minister earlier when others submitted the letter?"
The first seat is not strong enough. The way he looks like he is coughing while putting on his clothes before putting on his evening makeup, I would say that the prime minister is the most interesting.
This time, it was Tang Wanzhuang who explained to Xia Chichi: "There must be a reliable person to take over the Demon Suppression Division. If I were the prime minister, it would be okay for me to be the head of the Demon Suppression Division for a while, but it would definitely not work in the long term."
"So you've found it now?"
"Actually, I prefer Qin Dingjiang. Although he attacked me secretly, it was only under the emperor's orders, and he felt ashamed afterwards. The Demon Suppressor should have only listened to the emperor, and what he did was not wrong. Of course, I cannot confirm that he
Did he just listen to the emperor at the beginning, or did he have some self-ambition, so he put aside the observation." Tang Wanzhuang said: "If you think he is inappropriate, you can let Wu Weiyang do it. You once promised Wu Weiyang and the others a future.
I have promoted them all as deputies, but their cultivation is not as good as Dingjiang, and they are several years younger. It is better to make a reasonable arrangement to be deputies first, and then take over from Dingjiang later."
Zhao Changhe nodded and said: "You know them best and know them best. Just make your own decision."
Xia Chichi snorted and muttered: "Independent Kingdom!"
Tang Wan pretended not to hear.
The Demon Suppression Division was her own creation. She had been involved in building it since she was a minor girl. Just like her own children, it would be correct to say that it was her own force. In fact, even if she gave up, at least half of the people in it would be
I still only recognize her as Tang Wanzhuang. She is already public-minded enough, and she is willing to choose Qin Dingjiang, who "obeys the emperor," to succeed her. If there is even the slightest selfishness, the successor chosen will only be her licking dog.
But having said that, now that Qin Dingjiang is so kind to her, he might be more licking than others...
Xia Chichi said angrily: "Tell me what is going on. This kind of powerful official who wants to establish an independent kingdom, and I even offered to make her the prime minister! Being a prime minister is also a traitor!"
Tang Wanzhuang still stared into the distance without saying a word. If this traitor was someone who committed adultery with your man, it might be quite appropriate.
The blind man felt that if this word was used as a verb, the traitor would be Zhao Changhe.
On the contrary, Zhao Changhe did not think about these obscure things, and actually tried to persuade him: "Evening makeup is the job of the prime minister, so I should have given him a promotion long ago. Besides, evening makeup is the same as you."
The state affairs have dragged down my practice, and my spiritual practice has fallen behind, so I have to think about how to improve my evening makeup."
Xia Chichi glanced at him sideways: "How else can you help? It's just that little thing."
Zhao Changhe shook his head: "No, dual cultivation can't directly help people break through the barrier. It would be nice if it was that easy. Even the third layer of secrets you just broke through was because you were missing a layer of window paper. The Azure Dragon you obtained in the beginning was
The enlightenment and Dongji Dao Fruit have not yet been digested. I just use my Qinglong Law to help you stimulate their effects. Speaking of which, you have another advantage. The enlightenment of the law is one thing, and the accumulation of practice is another.
The thing is, because of your dragon energy and faith, you have transformed these powers into practice, and it has been growing naturally even without deliberate practice, so you will lose this part of your evening makeup, I have to think of a way."
"Okay." Xia Chichi stopped talking and said: "The dinner is a banquet for hundreds of officials. It can't be eaten by the whole family like noon. I have to host it, and your family's evening makeup has always been for sick people.
I think officials are used to it if you don't participate in this, so it would be more normal if you don't participate. If you don't want to socialize, just go back and rest by yourself, and study how to do adultery."
Neither of them spoke. Xia Chichi glared at them angrily and flew back to the palace.
A man and a woman stood outside the city gate, watching the emperor climb back over the wall. It was already dark, the evening breeze was blowing, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Tang Wanzhuang stiffened her neck for a long time and then muttered: "I want to make a deal with her tomorrow. The person who becomes the emperor is not the witch in the past. She still needs to have a guard of honor and escort when traveling. It's not decent and dangerous now.
."
Originally, we were guards of honor and bodyguards, why didn't you count without you? Zhao Changhe couldn't laugh or cry, and suddenly reached out to hold her hand. Tang Wanzhuang actually tensed up subconsciously, and then slowly relaxed.
In fact, apart from that night when I had her by the hot spring, I haven't had any sex in the past three months since then. I only had one hug and a kiss in the Demon Suppression Division. Every time we met, it was like
State affairs. Not to mention strolling in the countryside in front of flowers and under the moon.
Zhao Changhe said softly: "Walking around?"
Tang Wanzhuang lowered his head and said, "How can I have so much time to hang out?"
Zhao Changhe couldn't help but pulled her towards the city: "Come on, today is the Spring Festival. No matter how much you treat yourself like a cow or a horse, you still have to have a holiday. Let me tell you, those who have worked overtime these two days must be given extra bonuses."
, otherwise we will be scolded in the spine."
Tang Wanzhuang staggered and was dragged to the city by him, and said angrily: "The city is closed today, there is nothing to go shopping."
"Huh?" Zhao Changhe looked at her with a smile: "What do you mean, go for a walk in the wild."
Tang Wanzhuang tilted her head and said nothing: "I mean not to go shopping."
"Then just go back to the room and have sex?"
Tang Wan put on her makeup and said, "What the hell do you have in mind!"
Zhao Changhe smiled and pulled her around the city wall to the side, all the way to the distant village farmland on the other side.
Tang Wanzhuang also calmed down, lowered her head and walked slowly with him.
Tang Wanzhuang's hands have always been soft and cold. In the past, she thought the cold feeling was due to her illness. Now that she has recovered, they are still cool and soft. There is no other reason. These ice-cold muscles and jade bones are the result of human nature.
Zhao Changhe held his hand gently, but there was no trace of the charm of the past. He only felt relaxed and peaceful in his heart. The two walked slowly, but never spoke again. Tang Wanzhuang's pounding heart slowly calmed down, and the corners of her mouth became softer.
smile.
No matter how much you say you are willing to be your concubine, you will never really want a man to treat you like a concubine, just to vent your desires. Fortunately, he has never been such a person, and now he is better than before. In the past, he was rough-tempered, and he is not
He would experience everyone's mood too delicately, and now there is more tenderness in his iron bones. He knew what she wanted.
What she wanted in the late Tang Dynasty was just to steal a half-day of her life, to roam hand in hand with her lover in the forest in the breeze and bright moon, go boating on the lake, play a clear song, and read a page of the Western Chamber.
The same will be true for the rest of my life.
All the hard work is just so that everyone in the world can do this.
