Chapter 13 Wonderful thoughts

On the beautiful tower, the palace servant stood at a distance. Xue Chongxun and Ashinazhuo said a while, and then there was a moment of silence. He faced Taiyechi habitually closed his eyes and thought about problems. At this time, a sentence suddenly popped up in his mind: Close your eyes and what did you see?

In Xue Chongxun's memory, the answerer said that he had seen nothing, and then a voice said that this is your life is nothing.

People probably need dreams. Even the arrogant, extravagant and lewd rulers still have the dream of Datong and the ambition to govern the world.

At this moment, not only Ashinazhuo believed everything Xue Chongxun said, but he seemed to believe it himself.

The Tuqishi tribe is also a Turkic person. Someone has been with you in Heisha City. I want you to write a letter to them to persuade them to surrender.The collusion between Tuqishi and Dashi was of no use, and the court was their belonging.

Xue Chongxun told the matter out loud.

Ashinazhuo nodded without hesitation and promised happily, without any desire to be forced.She was moved by Xue Chongxun's oral dream.

……

Xue Chongxun followed Du Xian’s advice in the Western Regions. In fact, this strategy was made by Zhang Xiaozhen.

The food is too far away, and Xue Chongxun did not intend to expand uncontrollably at this time. He had a premonition that he would face other threats, just as he had faced many challenges before.

However, Princess Taiping's side was having a banquet and singing and dancing in Linde Hall of Chengxiang Hall every day. She probably thought that the dynasty should show the world's peace at the beginning of the dynasty. At the beginning of the first lunar month, she also planned to watch the polo game in the square of Linde Hall, so that Xue Chongxun could also participate. Her polo skills were also good.

Xue Chongxun was a lively and active boy when he was young. He didn't like reading but only sports. He was fond of dancing sticks, playing guns, horses and playing basketball. However, now he seems to have become a different person. On the contrary, he is not active but quiet. Although he played polo well, he really didn't have much interest.

However, Princess Taiping sent someone to invite her, but he agreed, thinking that when the time comes, he just needs to go on stage and run away.

Of course, I didn't put my mind on it, just thinking about other things.

There are so many things to think about if you want to sit firmly on the throne.

In addition to reading memorials and approvals, Xue Chongxun felt that he was thinking about things while eating and sleeping. Many times, he was afraid that he would forget the thoughts he had thought out, so he asked Sanniang to follow him at any time to write down the little bits.

Bai Qimei once acted very unhappy for this matter. She probably felt that she was Xue Chongxun's book boy, but her affairs were snatched by Sanniang and she didn't let her see them.

Xue Chongxun was too lazy to care about her, and she still asked Sanniang to do this because some of his inspirations and ideas were related to the overall situation, and some were just because the conception stage was not mature and did not want others to see it. In contrast, Xue Chongxun felt that Sanniang was more reliable and she had no easy communication and had few opportunities to say something.

Most of the time, Xue Chongxun doesn’t think Sanniang is a living person, just like a typewriter, because she rarely says anything, let alone expresses her opinions on the content.

Xue Chongxun is not a talented person, but he often has many imaginative ideas, probably because of the memories of his previous life.For example, what he is doing now is to build cannons.

The reason for thinking about this at first was very simple. He believed that he might encounter military challenges in the future. If he wanted to maintain his military advantage more, building guns and cannons was the easiest inspiration. In fact, he had been thinking about this a few years ago.

However, Xue Chongxun was neither an ordnance expert nor a fan in his previous life, and even a layman in metallurgical materials. He had that idea but not that level.

Yang Sixu's application of gunpowder in the Southwest War and Du Xian's example exploded the gate of the Turkic Heisha City, which aroused Xue Chongxun's hope in this regard.

After a long period of consideration, he felt that it was difficult to succeed in building a gun in a short time. Even a musket could not produce the barrel technology, and it was difficult to use it in his opinion. The possibility of building a gun would be much greater, and even if it was not well built, it would definitely be miraculous to use it to bomb the city gates or something. The cities of this era did not have the function of defending against solid iron bomb impacts. As long as you have new weapons, you should not be very sharp to attack the city?

So he sent the eunuch Yang Sixu to Wugong County, using the Mingguang Army as its base camp, where he built several workshops there and began to study cannons.

The things they tinkered at the beginning were nothing more than two: purifying black gunpowder, casting and polishing the cannon body.

The so-called gunpowder used before was actually prepared based on the experience of Taoist alchemy. It has many unnecessary impurities. It is powerful to make a large barrel with a large amount of power, but it is very unqualified to use that kind of thing to fill the cannon.

Xue Chongxun didn't have much knowledge in this area, but he also remembered that he had 1 sulfur, 2 nitrate and 3 charcoal, and directly sent an order to Yang Sixu for him to experiment.

Yang Sixu used this law as a secret military matter, which made Xue Chongxun very satisfied.

Just when Princess Taiping asked him to participate in the polo game, Yang Sixu also sent a secret report, and the gunpowder was quickly successful, and the same dose was several times more powerful than before.

When Xue Chongxun heard this news, he was still thinking about the polo game, so he simply wanted to go to Wugong County to see it with his own eyes.

He didn't expect to experience the emperor's dignity when he left the palace, so he didn't even need a chariot. He simply ordered the personal entourage of the Flying Tiger Regiment stationed at Xuanwu Gate, and then hurried out of the city with an old carriage.

This car is really a bit old. It was brought back by Xue Chongxun several years ago from a place far away in Shanzhou. The pine carriage is very sturdy and can still be used after being used for so long.

Of course, what he likes most is the natural fragrance of pine wood sitting here, which makes people feel much more comfortable than the gorgeous painted carriage.There is also the smooth texture of the wood itself on the carriage wall, which makes it pleasing to the eye.

Sanniang was still traveling with him. When she was on the way, Xue Chongxun suddenly felt as if she had suddenly remembered something, so she took something out of her sleeve and handed it over. Sanniang took it silently and saw it. It turned out to be a golden necklace. She wondered: What's the use of taking this thing with your husband in martial arts?

Xue Chongxun said: I gave it to you.

Sanniang was stunned. She thought to herself that today was my birthday. Could it be because of this?

She hoped that this was the reason, but she felt it was unlikely. After all, no one knew about this, and she didn't even care about it herself. How could Xue Chongxun know?

Besides, how could I remember such a small thing when I saw him busy these days?

She said quietly: Why did you suddenly remember to give me something?

Xue Chongxun smiled and said: Isn’t it your birthday?I asked Bai Qimei last time, is life right?

After hearing this, Sanniang felt warm and she held the necklace in her hand tightly. She even became dazed where she was. But at this moment she didn't know what to say, so she turned her face away, and still said expressionlessly: That's right, but this day was set by Yu Wenxiao before, and it was meaningless.

Only then did Xue Chongxun remember that she didn't know whether her parents' orphans came from, and she felt a little sympathy in her heart, so she stopped talking about this to her and looked at what Yang Sixu wrote.

Sanniang's heart was turbulent, but she acted very calmly, which made Xue Chongxun believe that she really didn't value this, but he couldn't help but mutter: Don't you all want to be cared for, and you can't help but give me some small meaning on special days...

Obviously he was not wrong, and Sanniang had basically not received any attention, which was not just a small matter.She said with a cold face: Bai Wuchang really tells you everything.

A few conversations today seem to be very simple and ordinary, but in fact they have already said a lot. Usually, the two of them are often together but rarely say a few words.

When Xue Chongxun heard that she was talking to her today, she continued to jokingly say: I really remembered that when you said this, can she say you in front of me, have you never said me in front of you?

Say...what to say?

Xue Chongxun heard her voice look strange, and subconsciously looked up and found that Sanniang had a strange light redness on her pale face. If such an expression appeared on other women's faces, it would be very normal, but it was rare for Sanniang to see that she was shy?

Xue Chongxun naturally remembered the reward games between her and Bai Qimei. This female ghost wouldn’t really tell Sanniang about such a private matter, right?

Xue Chongxun couldn't help but be shocked. Isn't she sexually cold?

He then deceived: Didn’t Bai Qimei tell you? What did you say?

Unexpectedly, Sanniang got angry at this time: What does your business have to do with me!Bai Qimei is beautiful, just let her be by her side. Her skills are no worse than mine, so what else do you want me to do!

Her words came out like a bead, and Xue Chongxun really didn't listen to her speaking so quickly and smoothly.After saying that, she knocked on the carriage and shouted: Stop.

Xue Chongxun was really angry when he saw this little girl, but now he is the emperor, who can be angry in front of him?

Sanniang was so angry that he felt something strange, but she grabbed her wrist: Where are you going?

Her wrists were still as cold as snow.

At this time, the guard's voice came: What happened, stop quickly.Xue Chongxun opened the curtain and said: It's okay, keep on rushing, and go to the Mingguang Army camp before dark.

yes.A voice responded.

Sanniang looked down at Xue Chongxun's hand holding tightly and said: What's the use of me? Why are you leaving me for?

Xue Chongxun felt a little funny in his heart, and of course he didn't dare to laugh out loud, otherwise Sanniang would have to be more serious. She rarely acted like this, especially in front of herself.

Xue Chongxun is quite good at thinking about women's thoughts. After thinking for a moment, he prescribed the right medicine and said: Who said you are not beautiful?I haven't been rude to you for so long. That's because I really value you. Didn't you say you didn't want to be a toy?

Sanniang said in her heart: As long as you keep me, you can be your toy.

Xue Chongxun still didn't understand Sanniang's heart. Maybe he communicated too little.

He tentatively stretched his hand to her face to see her reaction and acted according to the opportunity. At this time, Sanniang raised her head and looked at Xue Chongxun. Her eyes were no longer as cold and emotional as usual. Xue Chongxun felt a kind of begging, a kind of inferiority, and an indescribable feeling, and his heart suddenly felt a little painful.
