As soon as the old monk appeared, everyone in the room immediately became silent, because no one knew him.
One of the three great monks of Tianlong Temple back then!
A master who specializes in Tenryuji Temple's three handed down skills and the Fudo Myoyo Sutra!
He was the only one who could face Zhao Chongguo and escape with his life. He was recognized as the second person in the world at that time!
The reason why everyone knows him is because for more than 20 years, this great monk has never stopped. Every few years he will go to Bianjing to assassinate the Dog Emperor, but he is driven away by Zhao Chongguo many times. In the entire remaining martial arts world, who Don’t you know his reputation as Qingchen?
And his arrival was both expected and reasonable.
After more than twenty years of assassination attempts without success, he finally saw an opportunity. How could he not come?
When he came to the table, the great monk Qingchen found a seat under the table and then went straight to the topic and asked:
"When will we set off? Is everyone here?"
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Li Bubai spoke:
"My junior from Jianmen said that we have made an appointment to gather here these two days.
If no one comes by tomorrow noon, it will be just us. "
Monk Qingchen looked around, focusing on Li Bubai and Chen Ergou, then nodded slightly and said:
"Okay! Then we will wait for one day. As soon as tomorrow passes, we will set off immediately!
That dog emperor will go back who knows when. If we fail to intercept him before he goes back, or delay the time and let Zhao Chongguo get the news and come, then under the protection of that guy, we won’t be able to go together together. Opportunity! "
"Is Zhao Chongguo that strong?"
Qiu Qianchi asked doubtfully.
Li Bubai sneered: "It is said that the twelve major forces in Zhongbei Mountain were all killed by one shot. There are no more traces of fighting."
Qiu Qianchi fell silent. As a person from Zhongbei Mountain, he knew the true strength of the twelve major forces better than anyone else.
Even they only used one shot. Even though he is now considered the best master in the world, he still shudders.
My master and grandmaster back then were all at the level I am now!
The five people stayed in this inn. Although the innkeeper thought they were weird and it might be dangerous to keep them here, under the temptation of gold and silver, he still cooperated and compromised.
As soon as tomorrow was over, the five of them decided to go out and look for the dog emperor. According to the intelligence, the dog emperor was most likely to be in Yunzhou City now!
…
Bianjing!
Zongren Mansion.
"My lord! A secret message from northern Liaoning discovered the figures of Qiu Qianchi, a remnant of the Tianyang Palace, Xuan Yinzi, a remnant of the Yunhai Temple, Li Bubai of the Sword Sect of Shu, and Lan Xinyu of the Five Poison Sect at the Liaoyun Pass.
In addition, according to the news from Haifu County, an old monk who has never been seen before walked out of Lingyun Temple, heading towards the Liaoyun Pass, and he is suspected to be the assassin Qingchen!
As soon as the second uncle Zhao Chongguo, who had been playing with the walnuts in a plate just now, heard the news, he heard a few clicks. The walnuts that had been plated in his hands for three years suddenly shattered into a handful of dregs. The walnut kernels inside had long since turned into dregs. Got black!
"Let me check! Who leaked His Majesty's whereabouts? Was it from inside the palace or outside the palace, or was there a traitor in the Imperial City Department itself?
After being found out, he will be executed on the spot without reporting it. I can just bring the evidence to me whenever I want.
In addition, five thousand Tianwu troops were dispatched to Haifu County to slaughter the entire Lingyun Temple, leaving no chickens or dogs behind!
If you dare to harbor an imperial prisoner, you will have to pay the price! "
"No! I obey!"
After the secret agent who came to report left, Zhao Chongguo glanced at the birdcage, stood up suddenly, and shouted:
"Come here! Prepare your horses! Inform the Enshrining Pavilion to mobilize half of the people and follow me to Yunzhou County."
The parrot in the cage suddenly shouted:
"It's bad, it's bad, the evil guy is back in the world! The evil guy is back in the world! He's going to kill people! He's going to kill people!"
…
Yunzhou County.
Zhao Jun has been very busy recently. The old man is going back, but he wants to bring back a lot of things. Zhao Jun has been dealing with this problem. Some of them can be brought back to the old man, but some cannot.
For example, he is pointing at the iron-making blast furnace and saying that he wants to move this thing back to Bianjing.
Zhao Jun naturally refused. Now Yunzhou County's most important advantage compared to Guannai is its technological leadership, of which iron production is a crucial part. Zhao Jun can rely on exporting iron ingots from Yunzhou County every year. Guan Nei earns a gross profit of 7 million taels. After deducting costs, he can make a net profit of nearly 4 million taels every year just from selling iron in Guan Nei.
If the old man is allowed to bring the blast furnace iron-making technology back to Bianjing, given the money-grubbing character of those officials, they will probably quickly spread this iron-making method, and finally rely on the large number of manpower and sufficient iron ore in the customs to go on a rampage. To produce iron, Yunzhou County's iron-making business will definitely suffer a heavy blow.
Another crucial point is that the Yunzhou Army now has advantages over other armies. One is the advanced nature of weapons, and the other is benefiting from the huge iron production in Yunzhou County, which gives the Yunzhou Army Wearing a very high armor wearing rate.
If Guan Nei learns this iron-making method, it may not take long. Not only will all the troops in Guan Nei change their uniforms, but the Xiongnu and Da Yueshi on the grassland will also change their uniforms soon.
Believe them, those beasts in the pass who are inferior to pigs and dogs will definitely do such a thing. By then, the gap between the Yunzhou Army and these armies will be greatly narrowed. This is also equivalent to reducing the strength of Zhao Jun in disguise. .
Therefore, if the old man wants to take away the steelmaking method, this is absolutely impossible!
So, what happened not long ago happened again, and Zhao Jun directly carried the old man into and out of the ironmaking workshop.
Immediately, Prince Yun's Mansion issued a ban, strictly prohibiting anyone or forces in Yunzhou County from leaking the blast furnace ironmaking method to this man or his servants. Violators will be punished with treason!
Along with the order, there were high-definition portraits of the old man and Cao Shuang. Even the hair on their faces could be clearly seen. Zhao Jun specially found the best painter in Yunzhou County to paint the two people. .
Not only them, but also the portraits of some people belonging to the old man who had never shown up were also sent to various iron-making workshops.
In fact, Yunzhou County has known about them for a long time. The reason why it has not been discovered is because Zhao Jun did not order to take care of them. Now that they need to be on guard, they have been marked out one by one.
So far, their portraits have been pasted on the walls at the entrances of all iron-making workshops, and all factories have strictly prohibited anyone in the portrait from appearing in the iron-making workshops.
Suddenly there was quite a commotion, and they became famous throughout the iron-making workshops in Yunzhou City.
When Zhao Duan was forcibly carried back to the palace by Zhao Jun, and then when he found out about it, he directly chased Zhao Jun with a feather duster and beat him!
The father and son staged a thrilling chase directly in the palace.
late at night.
In the room of Chunhe Courtyard, Ye Yinzheng gently squeezed Zhao Jun's shoulders and asked doubtfully: "Is it true that the blast furnace cannot be used to make steel for Your Majesty?"
Zhao Jun squinted his eyes slightly and said while enjoying it: "That thing involves too many things, and I can't give it to him now."
"But you know too much. It's impossible to prevent it. Sooner or later, not only my father will know about it, but probably the whole world will know about it."
Zhao Jun nodded and said in a deep voice:
“I understand, but at least for this period of time, I’m going to try to postpone it.
I just have to wait until my next advantage comes out, then let them know about it, but not now! "
Ye Yin nodded: "As long as you know it in your mind, have Father and the others decided on a date to leave?"
Zhao Jun twisted his neck comfortably and replied: "The old man decided to set off in seven days, and he has almost packed his things.
Old Taishan will also leave at that time, so you should spend more time with him during this time. "
"Um."
Ye Yin hummed softly.
Zhao Jun sighed, silently reached out and grabbed his wife's hand, and the room became quiet for a moment.
…
A night of silence.
The next day, Zhao Jun had just finished breakfast and was about to go outside for a walk when he saw Wang Huai'en coming back from outside with a solemn face.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Jun asked.
When Wang Huaien saw him, his face was happy, but then he quickly changed to a heavy expression, and he quickly stepped forward and whispered in Zhao Jun's ear.
After Zhao Jun heard what Wang Huai'en said, his face darkened, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a dangerous cold light!
