Li Zhan was shocked and quickly looked at Emperor Liang, only to find that Emperor Liang's eyes were narrowed and his eyes were full of depth.

The matter of refining colored glaze is shocking to the world.

But before, the 'Black Lieutenant' spy reported that Qin Feng indeed sent people to the Ministry of Industry at night to bribe the officials on duty and smuggled a lot of raw materials away.

Since they were all trivial things, Emperor Liang did not pursue them and treated them as if nothing happened. At this time, it proved Qin Feng's feat of refining colored glaze.

Emperor Liang looked at the exquisite glass window, which was like a miraculous craftsmanship. He hesitated again and again and finally made a decision: "Since it is Qin Feng's heart, let him stay. Come, I will reward Qin's eldest daughter with a thousand taels of gold. Send him out of the palace."

Shen Qingci quickly thanked her and left the imperial study, but did not leave in a hurry. Instead, under the leadership of the young eunuch, he went to the harem to meet the eldest princess.

There were only two masters and servants left in the imperial study. Li Zhan couldn't bear it any longer, and his voice trembled: "Qin Feng can refine colored glaze with his own hands. Doesn't it mean that he has mastered the inexhaustible mountain of gold and silver? If the saint decrees, Let Qin Feng hand over the glass making method, and the Daliang treasury will have a stable source of income in the future."

Emperor Liang also had this intention, but when he looked at the glazed window, his eyes showed a hint of palace, and he chuckled: "Forget it, Qin Feng is so loyal to me, how can I cut off his financial path? Just follow the old rules, Let him earn money for a few years first, and then confiscate it."

"Qin Feng sent this glazed window today, Li Zhan, what do you think it means?"

Li Zhan was thoughtful and said tentatively: "Is it possible that he is worried that the saint will intercept him in the future when the glass business starts up, so he first shows his kindness to the saint and seeks a smooth financial path?"

The corners of Emperor Liang's mouth raised slightly, and he said deeply: "This is one of them."

"This boy is so good! He has made many enemies in Kyoto. He knows that once he leaves the capital, it will be difficult to come back. So he uses this glass window to remind me all the time that there is still a person like him in the world. Haha, Qin Feng Although he is smart, his methods are too radical. If it were not for his superb ability to make money, I would have killed him a dozen times!"

"This guy knows that I value him, so he is confident. However, among the disciples of Kyoto, no one can surpass him."

Seeing that Emperor Liang spoke so highly of Qin Feng, Li Zhan was secretly happy. After all, he and Qin Feng had already been on good terms in private. In the future, when Qin Feng gained power, Li Zhan, an old man, would be protected when he left the palace.

At this moment, Heiwei, dressed in black, appeared behind the screen in the imperial study room and said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the saint, Shen Qingci did not leave the palace, but went to the harem to present a treasure to the eldest princess. It is a set of glazed wine. The eldest princess liked it very much and rewarded Shen Qingci highly."

Glass wine set...

Emperor Liang's eyes flashed with envy, and he chuckled: "What are you talking about? This brat, before leaving the capital, had already made all preparations to avoid a fire in the backyard. With this heavy gift, at least a few Within the month, the eldest princess will not forget him."

Li Zhan knew very well that Emperor Liang was most taboo about 'smart people', so he immediately asked in a low voice: "Is Qin Feng... too smart?"

Emperor Liang waved his hand and said he didn't care: "It's okay to be too smart, but what I'm afraid of is that my cleverness will lead to being misled by my cleverness. Qin Feng, a child, is extremely smart, but he can reflect on himself and knows what to do and what to think, but there is no need to I'm worried about him. It's just that he is smart but has too little experience. I'm afraid he has forgotten the principle of 'There are people outside the world, and there are mountains outside the mountains'."

From the moment Qin Feng left Kyoto, he knew that it would not be easy to return to Kyoto.

At this time, looking at the cavalry arriving at the foot of the mountain, Qin Feng became more convinced of this idea.

Two hundred of Beidi's elite rangers, well equipped with troops and horses, have already begun to search the mountains.

You don't need to think about it to know that the vanguard has been unable to complete its mission. It has penetrated into the territory of Daliang in advance and the cavalry who are preparing to respond have received news that Qin Feng has come to Beixi County. Now that Mrs. Qin and Qin Feng have appeared, two important figures have appeared, which is enough for Beidi people to take risks!

Two hundred Beidi cavalry were divided into two battalions.

One battalion stayed at the foot of the mountain to block all escape routes.

The second battalion dismounted and went into the mountains on foot to search.

Although the cavalry would be dismounted and their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced, the opponent was still outnumbered, and they were veterans of the battlefield. In addition, they took the initiative to attack, which still caused unprecedented pressure on Qin Feng.

Qin Feng only had fifty guards on hand.

There will be a fierce battle next!

As for asking for help? Qin Feng has thought about it, but unfortunately it is not realistic at all.

The access road down the mountain has been blocked by the Beidi cavalry. If you want to ask for help, you can only cross the mountains and head to the north of the mountain. In this way, the round trip will take at least a day or two. By the time the reinforcements arrive, Qin Feng has already cooled down. There is no other option but to face off head-on.

Fortunately, the opponents are all cavalry and are lightly armed. Qin Feng still has the strength to fight. If the opponent comes with heavy armored infantry, there is no need to resist. He can just wash his neck and wait for death. After all, the only weapon in the hands of the guards that has the ability to break armor is the Bucha. They inevitably have to fight hand-to-hand. Fighting in hand-to-hand combat with fewer enemies and more enemies is basically a dead end.

Qin Feng did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered: "The first, second and third teams will stay here and prepare to face the enemy head-on. The third and fourth teams will infiltrate the left and right wings. There is no need to wait for orders. As long as the enemy attacks with all their strength, you will directly attack from both wings to carry out a pincer attack."

"Remember to close the distance and not engage in any long-distance war of attrition with the enemy."

The opponents are all cavalry, that is, "horse archers". The bows and arrows in their hands are not inferior to Qin Feng's in terms of range and accuracy. In a long-distance attrition battle, Qin Feng will never get any advantage.

Following Qin Feng's order, three or four teams of guards immediately headed towards the two wings.

At the same time, Qin Feng led everyone to climb up the hillside behind him until they reached the top of the mountain.

Almost as soon as Qin Feng and others stabilized their position, the Beidi cavalry appeared on the opposite hill.

In an instant, the sound of horns resounded throughout the valley.

The hundreds of cavalrymen who were originally scattered quickly gathered on the opposite hilltop and began to move towards Qin Feng's position.

Since the two mountains are neither far nor close, the other side can only approach this way.

At this moment, a steady drum beat came from the opposite side.

Qin Feng frowned and looked for a voice, only to see a middle-aged man standing on the hilltop opposite, with a small cowhide drum hanging on his waist, relying on the drum beat to convey military orders. The one hundred cavalry did not rush in blindly as Qin Feng imagined, but came slowly and methodically to save physical strength.

Qin Feng couldn't help but curse: "Damn it! I met a professional. The enemy general is not a good person!"

Qin Feng did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered: "Build defenses!"

Building temporary fortifications is one of the compulsory subjects for the new army.

At the same time as Qin Feng gave the order, the first and second teams of guards pulled out Qin Feng's carefully designed folding 'engineer shovel' from their waists and dug holes on the ground like crazy!
