Just as soon as Guo Shao returned to Tokyo, he heard about Li Jixun's sending out a message and raising troops. . . The governor of Huaizhou "defected", and on the eve of Li Jixun's army, he rushed back to Tokyo with his son to inform the police. In this world, civil servants are easier to control than martial arts, and most civil servants listen to whoever sits on the throne in the capital.
Guo Shao met with the governor of Zezhou in the ceremonial hall south of the imperial city.
"Two months ago, Li Jixun released the prisoners from the three cities, interfered in the local government affairs of the prefectures and counties, and recruited craftsmen and young men everywhere. Collecting money, grain, iron, saltpeter, sulfur..."
"Saltpeter, sulfur?" Guo Shao immediately noticed this detail. He was more sensitive to these things, because gunpowder was rarely used by the government except Taoist priests and fireworks merchants.
The gunpowder used by the Taoist priests and the gunpowder used for fireworks were made by the ancients themselves. The formula is very crude. Although it was used in the military in the late Tang Dynasty, it was basically useless. Li Jixun used gunpowder to do something... Guo Shao immediately thought of Zhao Kuangyin.
Zhao Kuangyin knows the gunpowder formula for bombing the city! Only the gunpowder prescriptions tested by Guo Shao in Shouzhou have some military value. The gunpowder in this era is a frightening thing.
At the beginning, after the Battle of Shouzhou, Chai Rong threatened to entice Guo Shao to offer the prescription. The prescription did not spread, but Zhao Kuangyin was the core member of Chai Rong’s side. Zhao Kuangyin knew... So Zhao Sanlang instructed the assassin to seek out the inn When he stabbed, he made out gunpowder to kill Guo Shao.
At the time, Guo Shao had no choice but to face Chai Rong’s coercion, but he kept a hand; a few years ago he wondered if Zhao Kuangyin was an emperor, and whether he would become an enemy in the future, so there are a few details. Did not shake out...
First, the method of middle school chemistry experiment to purify saltpeter. Dissolve, filter, steam and crystallize to remove impurities, and then roughly sieve out sodium nitrate crystals of different sizes and shapes. There is no way of purification, and the impure gunpowder in the hands of the court will further affect the mixing ratio of raw materials, and the power will be compromised.
Second, find the mixing ratio of raw materials by the classification experiment method. The prescription is dead, but the method is alive. Others only get fish, not "fishing".
Thirdly, the gunpowder is granulated, mixed with water, and crushed to sieve. Guo Shao had personally tested that granulated gunpowder burned more than three times faster than powdered powder... without granulating, the power of blasting was reduced several times.
Fourth, air tightness. Gunpowder explodes, so no extra attention should be paid to sealing and compaction, the explosive power is very small.
If you fail to do all the four details, it is almost impossible to blow up the city wall...At the beginning, Guo Shao used the modern insights and knowledge that can be used in his memory and tried to overdo it. It succeeded. For an ancient person, even if Zhang Liang was reincarnated, without these methods, he wanted to use gunpowder to collapse the city wall at once. Guo Shao thought it would be impossible.
...The news of the governor, the most important role, made Guo Shao guess: Zhao Kuangyin voted for Li Jixun!
The provincial governor of Zezhou was still reporting all kinds of news, but Guo Shao basically didn't listen... What Li Jixun wanted to do, he had long guessed. The person Guo Shao pays most attention to now: Zhao Kuangyin!
Zhao Kuangyin almost completely failed after the Tokyo mutiny, and the world no longer cared about him. But Guo Shao has a special kind of obsession. He can't ignore this man... the symptoms that modern historical knowledge caused him. Tangzong Songzu, who doesn't know?
Guo Shao thought for a while, and now there is nothing to do with Zhao Kuangyin, unless Li Jixun is destroyed first. But he thought of another person still in Tokyo: Zhang Yongde.
Zhang Yongde's kindness to Zhao Kuangyin is not exaggerated. Zhao Kuangyin was reused by the trust of Chai Rong, but Guo Shao was very clear about the events before and after the battle of Gaoping... No Zhang Yongde prioritized Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Kuangyin was not even a general of the forbidden army, and he was still an official in Kaifeng. In front of the emperor, he spared no effort to ask for meritorious service for Zhao Kuangyin. Chai Rong didn't even know who Zhao Kuangyin was, so what else did he talk about promoting?
Zhang Yongde's kindness to Zhao Kuangyin is no less than that of the ten brothers in the righteous society.
However, Guo Shao wondered again: During the Tokyo Mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin wanted to force Zhang Yongde to add his dragon robe, did he want to use and harm him or report Zhang Yongde’s favor?
Furthermore, Zhang Yongde ran away very witty.
..."It doesn't matter what a person says or thinks." Guo Shao suddenly said, "The most important thing is to see what he did at a critical time."
The provincial governor of Zezhou was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to answer Guo Shao's words.
Guo Shao now believes that Zhang Yongde did nothing wrong at the critical moment, and at least when he has power, the glory and wealth should be given to Zhang Yongde.
What did Zhang Yongde think about and whether he wanted to be an emperor; Guo Shao has no way of knowing. But a person’s thoughts are innocent, because people often think about many things. Maybe they have thought about very evil crimes. Maybe they have thought about winning the lottery. Maybe they have thought about letting someone’s beautiful wife sleep with them... Who didn’t think Things that shouldn't be yours? Just think about it, most things won't really be done.
At this moment, I saw the **** Cao Tai walking to the entrance of the hall, flicking the dust, and praying: "The Queen Mother summons General Guo to enter the palace immediately."
Guo Shao listened, and said to the Zezhou provincial governor: "Zhang Shijun is commendable for his loyalty, and he does not go with the rebels, and brings important news. The court will definitely appreciate and reward Zhang Shijun." /
The governor of Zezhou grows up and worships: "I don’t dare to say rewards for the loyalty to the emperor."
"Duke Cao, didn't it come to the palace to discuss matters at the hour (from 9 am to 11 am)?" Guo Shao asked casually.
Cao Tai said: "The Queen Mother must see General Guo alone in advance."
"Troubled Father Cao to lead the way." Guo Shao said.
Cao Tai seemed to think of the squint "courtesy" that Shi Yanchao got when he saw Shi Yanchao in the palace, and said hurriedly: "General Guo is too polite."
Guo Shao enters Xuande Gate, Daqing Gate, to Jinxiang Hall, and enters the apse from the corridor on the side of the high stone steps.
When I arrived at the palace room where I saw Fu Jinzhan several times before, there was a thin wall framed with silk and satin like a screen across a wooden frame. Looking in from the inside, I saw Fu Jinzhan wearing a yellow robe and walking in front of the carved window. step.
Guo Shao came in, and the women withdrew one after another, and stood in the palace gate.
"The minister kowtows to the queen mother." Guo Shao kowtows according to etiquette.
Fu Jinzhan turned around, a snow-white and beautiful face, set off by the bright yellow silk and satin, making it more and more noble. But her face didn't seem so good, and she said, "Get up... Li Zhongjin and Li Jixun are too shameless!" She threw a piece of paper on the table.
"Is it Li Jixun's message?" Guo Shao asked calmly, "I have read it."
Fu Jinzhan said solemnly: "They fabricated rumors, saying that I and you..." At this point, the emotions on his face were mixed, shame and anger were all mixed together.
Before and now, Guo Shao has never seen Fu Jinzhan express much emotion in front of others. She is a person who can control her own emotions. She is even more admired by Taizu Zhou for her unruffled attitude in the face of danger. Only victory is not bad...but that does not mean that she has no feelings and can see everything.
Before, she was just that no one could say, only on her own. Now, she is willing to express her emotions in front of Guo Shao, which is very rare in itself. Guo Shao knew that all she wanted was a few words of comfort to make her feel better. There is no one who is qualified to comfort her.
As in the last conversation, Fu Jinzhan finally made it clear: I just want to hear your sweet words, but you are telling me why.
But for a smart person like Fu Jinzhan, words that are completely unreasonable cannot comfort her. Guo Shao pondered hard for a while before he said: "Does the queen mother spend Luo Binwang's "Discussing Martial Arts"?"
"Read it." Fu Jinzhan looked at him expectantly.
Guo Shaodao: "After Wu Zetian saw it, he couldn't laugh back. The article praising Luo Binwang was very literary."
Fu Jinzhan faintly said: "I am not Wu Zetian, I am not that big belly. I am angry and humiliated by those people who scold me! And..." She whispered, "You also know... …I can’t have a clear conscience."
Guo Shaodao: "People in the world don't believe in such curses, what does the Queen Mother still care about? Shame is even more unnecessary. Even if we always treat each other with courtesy and abide by etiquette, Li Jixun will still curse like this because he rebelled. Don’t worry about angering the queen mother; it’s not taking responsibility for cursing, but rebelling.
On the other hand, even if we are really messy eroticism as written in the essay, the gods and humans are jealous, and the world is intolerable, the world will still not scold. First of all, people don't know what happened in the palace, and secondly, they scolded them for taking serious responsibility.
So what we do or don’t do has no effect. The enemy doesn’t care about the facts, as long as we open our mouths; others don’t care about the facts, because it’s not their business or their interests. Unless it's too obvious, and those who have good things catch the wind and the history, then they admit it, and it doesn't hurt the truth. What kind of intolerance? "
Guo Shao said very well: "The ancients said that defending the people is better than Fangchuan. What other people like to say is unstoppable and can't care about it. There is no true evidence of distorted rumors, only stupid people will believe it, the queen mother Don’t worry too much."
Guo Shao himself had made rumors about the murder of Zhao Sankai, but he did it more carefully. There are many true and false evidences to prove...Of course, the biggest "evidence" is that Zhao Kuangyin failed. This kind of thing is a matter of position, that's just one thing.
Fu Jinzhan looked calmer after hearing this. She pondered for a moment and looked at Guo Shao and said, "You said it's okay, I seem to be better..." She said softly, "General Guo is a general, why is he here next to you? Would people be so comfortable?"
Guo Shao whispered: "Because I treat the Queen Mother with my heart. Would Zhao Kuangyin, Li Jixun and others find me comfortable?"
Fu Jinzhan was amused slightly and said with a smile: "Li Jixun is afraid that he hates you to grit your teeth."
"Maybe they hate me not, thinking that I'm just a tool; the person who hates is the queen mother." Guo Shao said, "the people in the world are afraid of the queen mother. The queen mother behaves very artistically after regent."
"My political actions are still passable?" Fu Jinzhan asked softly.
Guo Shaozan said: "Very superb, very wise, in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the heroes and heroes were unable to stabilize at the handover of power, so they only changed the Five Dynasties and Five Surnames in 50 years; in contrast, the Datong Dynasty The change of imperial power is just a matter of waiting."
