In front of the third prince Yang Yuanpu and Li Chong, Han Qian did not hide that during this period, his main focus was on helping his father write the manuscript at home, and he would also select parts of the manuscript and teach it to Yang Yuanpu at intervals, so that he could
It is convenient to push away other things here.
Yang Yuanpu only turned fourteen years old. In the final analysis, he was still a teenager at heart. Although he worked hard to learn how to manage the world and apply it, when he had doubts, Han Qian and the guests from the Xinchang Hou Mansion were always there to help him answer his questions.
But it still feels somewhat boring.
The third prince, Yang Yuanpu, was born under the shadow of Anning Palace. Even when he left the palace to live in the palace, he was surrounded by the informants of Anning Palace. The manuscript compiled by Han Qian at this time mainly talked about how to cultivate secret power, and how to cultivate secret power with the third prince.
Yang Yuanpu is a perfect fit.
It can even be said that Yang Yuanpu is more talented than anyone else in this aspect, and in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion, he can see the shadow of the manuscript projected into reality anytime and anywhere.
Han Qian didn't know whether it was good or bad to teach Yang Yuanpu the method of checks and balances, cultivation, and the use of secret power. But compared to other methods, he only needed to teach these methods to continue to gain Yang Yuanpu's trust, and the cost was the least.
However, the situation is now stable. Anning Palace and the Prince's family have not noticed the changes in Taowuji. Han Qian has not forgotten to tell Yang Yuanpu not to try the method of intercession on Guo Rong, Song Xin and others.
, so as not to alert the snake.
After the Lantern Festival, Feng Yi also formally arranged for people from the Feng Family Warehouse to transport lime from the villa to the city by boat for sale.
The circle of powerful people in the capital was actually not very large, and they were concentrated near the imperial city.
Before and after the Lantern Festival, the corners of the courtyards and lanes of the Minister of Household Affairs, the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Youshenwu Army, and others were sprinkled with quicklime, making it difficult for the city's dignitaries to see them.
At the same time, Feng Yi and Kong Xirong also promoted in the circle of friends and friends that quicklime can kill poisonous poisons and eliminate diseases.
Of course, although the water poisonous plague has not spread to the city, it has still been a shadow hanging over the heads of the city's powerful people in recent years. In addition, Han Qian deliberately spread rumors behind his back that the epidemic will be serious this year. In the Feng family warehouse
The quicklime he hoarded was once sold for more than the price of rice.
Han Qian also tried to build a more labor-saving large stove in the villa later in the year. The more than 300 people employed did not increase, but he could maintain almost 400 tons of lime every day.
Half of the lime produced by the villa is sold to the camp military government at a low price, and the other half is underwritten to the Feng family's warehouse.
Unfortunately, the news that lime can kill epidemic viruses spread, and many new lime kilns were built in the surrounding areas.
And burning lime does not really have much technical content. Even if the villa does not leak the secrets, given the primitive level of craftsmanship in this world, as long as the scale of the stone-burning kiln reaches a certain level, quarrying and cutting firewood can be divided into tasks.
Going out, the cost will inevitably drop rapidly.
However, even so, the fired lime can almost contribute tens of thousands of dollars in surplus to the villa every day, making up for the expense of the Han family in raising so many soldiers and slaves in the city and the villa.
Later in the year, Han Qian tried to build some equipment suitable for scouts' latent reconnaissance. He selected more than 20 craftsmen from the military households in the camp, and he no longer needed to pay extra for them.
By the end of April, the situation in the camp was completely stable.
On the one hand, under the leadership of Shen Yang and others, the ten-mile-long low embankment along the north shore of Chishan Lake was built before the spring water rose. On the other hand, the Twenty-Fifth Village was initially built, the lake beach was added to the initially requisitioned residential houses, and more than 100 dry fields were opened up.
The 70,000 acres were also sown in spring and planted with mulberry, wheat, beans and other crops.
More importantly, the epidemic is completely under control.
The number of soldiers and civilians in the camp finally stabilized at around 30,000 people. Even though there were still 2,780 people with severe symptoms of the disease, the symptoms of most people infected with the epidemic stabilized and they recovered a certain degree of working ability. After the year
The total number of new cases of epidemic disease in the past three months is less than 30.
In addition to the more than a hundred soldiers initially donated, Xinchanghou Mansion also moved more than 200 veterans or soldiers with rich combat experience to Taowu Ji after the year, either explicitly or covertly, and incorporated them into the garrison to strengthen the army.
The organization and training of more than 6,000 garrison troops and other matters.
Although the garrison troops were mainly scattered in various garrison camps, and Li Zhigao did not gather all the troops for large-scale training in order to avoid disturbing the situation, Han Qian came and went from the garrison camp from time to time and could still keep abreast of the situation here.
He could also see that after incorporating this group of experienced grassroots military attachés, even though the Dragon Bird Army was much smaller in size than the normal first army establishment, its combat effectiveness would not be much weaker.
This is also an advantageous resource that the Xinchang Hou Mansion has accumulated over the years and that few other forces have.
While Li Yu, the king of Zhejiang Province, returned to the mountains, some of the generals and officials who had previously been in front of Li Yu and General Zhang Wei's tent were unsatisfactory elsewhere and were squeezed out and suppressed. Under the lobbying of Xinchang Hou Li Pu, many people also defected to Lin.
Jianghou Mansion seeks a way out.
At the end of April, when the wedding of the third prince Linjiang Marquis Yang Yuanpu was approaching, in addition to Han Qian, Feng Yi, Kong Xirong, Li Chong and other four people who officially had official status as escorts, there were also guests who dined at the Marquis Mansion.
More than twenty people.
Although these people were mainly recommended by Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, they were either direct disciples or assassins trained by Wanhonglou, or Wanhonglou had already investigated their backgrounds, and had previously served in the army led by the prince of eastern Zhejiang and Li Pu.
It is unlikely that an informant from Ning Ning Palace could sneak in.
However, people talk a lot, so Han Qian still carefully kept a distance from Yang Yuanpu in front of outsiders.
The wedding of the third prince Yang Yuanpu to Li Yao, the youngest daughter of Xinchang Hou Li Pu, was about to take place. Han Qian only asked his father to copy a copy of the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" and the manuscript "Yongjian Pian Commentary" that he had just compiled recently as a congratulatory gift.
.
Of course, the Commentary on Yongjian Chapter presented by Han Qian is also a deleted version.
Han Qian mainly deleted those technical means that should not be used in this world and some that are too cruel and bloody and "may harm future generations and hinder education." However, even the clean version with most of the content deleted still has 30,000 to 40,000 words.
, can be said to be a rare masterpiece in this world.
"This is a new manuscript that my father has just written. It is based on my father's experience when he was an official in Chuzhou. However, the various methods written in the manuscript are too feminine and hinder the enlightenment of saints. My father does not want this manuscript to be published.
I secretly copied a copy and dedicated it to Your Highness. As a congratulatory gift, there may be something wrong with it, so please don’t blame me."
Han Qian went into the inner chamber with Li Chong and Li Zhigao to discuss the wedding with the third prince Yang Yuanpu, and then took out the Commentary on the Yongjian Chapter.
Although Yang Yuanpu had listened to Han Qian's teachings on most of the content, he was still very happy to get the complete manuscript: "How could it be possible? How could it be possible? Yuanpu will study this precious gift from time to time, but it is a pity that he cannot face Young Supervisor Han in person if he has some difficult questions.
consult."
Han Qian smiled slightly in his heart, thinking that under the unremitting influence of Li Chong and others during this period, in Yang Yuanpu's mind, he had become the kind of person who only knew how to conspire, and his father was the one who really had great talents, right?
Han Qian didn't mind this, and only in this way, when his father still couldn't restrain himself and wanted to directly remonstrate Tianyan, could the third prince and Xinchang Marquis Li Pu make every effort to protect his father.
"Brother, maybe the general's office can set up a secret cao who is responsible for using time and spying on news?" Yang Yuanpu pressed the seventy or eighty pages of the manuscript under his hand, looked at Li Zhigao and asked.
Yang Yuanpu was going to officially marry Li Yao in two days. In private, he called Li Zhigao and Li Chong as brothers to show their affection.
Han Qian raised his head and glanced at Li Zhigao.
Although he secretly taught Yang Yuanpu how to check and balance, and the focus of the Yongjian article was on the construction and use of secret power, when Yang Yuanpu mentioned this matter at this time, he still felt that the timing was a little too early.
Although on the surface now, the Linjiang Marquis Mansion is full of An Ning Palace and the prince, and even the second prince Xinwang's spy, but everyone knows in their hearts that Wan Honglou has been lurking in the dark these years, whether in the past or now, Wan
Honglou was able to deliver news to the imperial concubine in a timely manner, which meant that there was an informant who had infiltrated the palace and lurked in the palace.
If you want to say that the crown prince and the second prince Xin Wang do not have Wan Honglou's spy, not to mention Han Qian, even Yang Yuanpu will not believe it.
It's just that Han Qian couldn't tell how many spies Wan Honglou had and how many assassins and spies he secretly trained, not to mention Yang Yuanpu.
Even if Yang Yuanpu doesn't mind using the power of Wanhonglou and Xinchanghou to fight for the throne, he still hopes that Wanhonglou and Xinchanghou can put these secret powers, whether overt or covert, within his sight so that he can see them.
Han Qian taught him the science of Yongjian and taught him the construction and use of secret power, which made him realize the importance of this matter and gave him a good excuse.
Of course, Yang Yuanpu asked Han Qian's opinion beforehand. Han Qian hoped that he would not act too hastily. However, Emperor Tianyou contracted a cold a few days ago. It is said that Emperor Tianyou looked much older after he recovered from the illness, which disturbed many people.
’s thoughts, everyone’s thoughts became urgent.
From this perspective, Han Qian thought that the third prince might not be too eager to raise this matter at this time. After all, when the conflict over the heir apparent intensified, he would not dare to act rashly, and he might never have the opportunity to mention this matter again.
Of course, Han Qian did not think that this was the decision made by the third prince Yang Yuanpu alone. If he thought about it carefully, apart from the timing, if it were not for the arbitrariness of the imperial concubine, it would be unimaginable that Yang Yuanpu, who was just fourteen years old, would be able to withstand this.
The pressure may be directly rejected by Xinchang Houfu and Wanhonglou.
"My father and my wife know that Your Highness is engaged in studying with Han during this period, and they often hear the second brother's wonderful remarks about Mr. Han, and they both find it wonderful. We need to pay attention to this matter, so as not to
The incident happened suddenly and there was nothing we could do," Li Zhigao asked calmly, "I just wonder who His Highness would like to take control of this matter?"
Seeing Li Chong looking over with resentful eyes, Han Qian cursed in his heart, Damn it, the imperial concubine is more powerful than you think, and I don't want to completely become your puppet. What's the point of glaring at me, grandson like you?
"I also have some thoughts during this period of study, but I am still confused about what to do specifically. I have to ask you, brother, to make a decision." Yang Yuanpu said.
"Master Han can serve as secretary to join the army." Li Zhigao looked at Han Qian.
"Li Yuhou, don't try to harm me. Han Qian can help His Highness with some ideas. If you really want to do something, you will be in the dark!"
Han Qian is not stupid. If he serves as secretary again and joins the army, how could Wanhonglou and Xinchang Houfu give him control of their secret power?
No matter how Li Zhigao tried to persuade him, he just refused and said: "Besides, my father is unwilling to take up the post of His Highness. If he really wants to specialize in secret affairs, with my father's temper, he will have to break my legs."
."
Seeing that Yang Yuanpu had no intention of persuading Han Qian, Li Zhigao said: "Since Mr. Han declined in every possible way, let's wait until Zhigao reports to his father and wife before discussing this matter."
