Chapter 370 Chang’an Cannot Live without Yihongyuan! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】

"It has now been found out that the Zhao family and his son who brought trouble to Chang'an some time ago were bewitched by Yuan Shao."

Jia Xu opened the bamboo slips and did not read the words directly. Instead, he announced the results of the investigation to the courtiers in a calm tone.

All the courtiers had experienced the last turmoil caused by the servant's greed for ink and rock candy. They also knew that Guo Jia had poached many people in the city, and even some of the courtiers were arrested.

Just when everyone thought this matter was over, Jia Xu announced the culprit.

That was Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai, who had just occupied Jizhou and reported to the court that he should be the governor of Jizhou.

Yesterday, several courtiers spoke for Yuan Shao, suggesting that the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, and now that Han Fu, who disrespected the court, had been exterminated, should be allowed to serve as the governor of Jizhou. Some even suggested that Yuan Shao be given the title of general to win over the Yuan family.

Liu Xie did not express his position on this proposal, and several core figures were laughing and joking. No one objected, but no one agreed.

Just when those courtiers were planning to finish talking about the autumn harvest and gain some benefits for Yuan Shao while there were many people at the court meeting, Jia Xu's words directly ended their illusions.

Everyone knows that the Zhao family and his son are suspected of treason. If Yuan Shao is really the instigator, not only will he not be able to claim credit for Yuan Shao, he will even have to cut it off immediately.

Otherwise, just wait for the people from the Secrecy Bureau to come and search your home.

Guo Fengxiao, relying on the favor of His Majesty and Jia Wenhe, can do anything.

Liu Xie sat on the dragon chair, his expression unchanged:

"Mr. Wenhe, do you have any evidence?"

Jia Xu waved his hand, Ma Chao walked in and turned on the projector, while Zhou Yu put down the projection screen. Soon, Zhao Jian's figure appeared on the screen, clearly indicating that he was bewitched by Yuan Shao and that he was still alive. It is said that Yuan Shao gave a hundred gold cakes, and these gold cakes were used to buy the yard.

Seeing this video, all the courtiers were shocked. They didn't expect Zhao Jian to take the initiative to admit it.

After Zhao Jian finished crying, Zhao Qi appeared again. This old man didn't cry, but he repeatedly said that only the Yuan family could succeed the emperor and replace the Han Dynasty.

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.

Zhao Jian cried and cried, thinking that he was forced. Everyone was half-believed, but they didn't expect that Zhao Qi was more ruthless and directly wanted to push the Yuan family to the throne. This was naked rebellion!

General Lu Zhi of the Wei clan clanged out the Eight-sided Han Sword given to him by Li Yu:

"The Yuan family is fed up with the emperor's salary, but they are disloyal. The old ministers are not talented. They are willing to lead a large army to eradicate the Yuan family to comfort all the emperors of the Han Dynasty!"

Some courtiers who were friends with the Yuan family in private were so anxious that they stamped their feet.

The mother-in-law's separatist party is not good at it, but she actually wants to be the emperor, and now she wants to help and can't even say a word of kindness.

Lu Zhi took the lead in calling for war. Taiwei Yang Biao, Shangshu Ling Cai Yong, Taifu Ma Rixi, Secrecy Bureau Guo Fengxiao, Research Institute Sun Facai, Yushi Zhongcheng Zhongyao, Huangmen Shilang Xun Yu... everyone came forward to ask for war.

For a time, the public was so excited that even some people who were usually good friends with the Yuan family rolled up their sleeves and wanted to get rid of the Yuan family in Runan.

Sun Facai bumped Guo Jia lightly with his shoulder:

"Good boy, this move is very smooth!"

"It was written in the book given by the teacher that this is a technique to induce confessions. I didn't expect Zhao Qi to be so clever... The documentary "The Rebellion of Zhao and His Sons" will be shown on Zhuque Street tonight. Will you come and watch it?"

"If I don't go, I have to make chicken soup for my wife at home... Please be careful and don't let the people smash the curtain."

"Don't worry, Brother Sun, everything is going according to plan. All the cities and towns in Chang'an are taking turns to broadcast the documentary... Our Secrecy Bureau has worked really hard for the great cause of the Yuan family. I won't even be able to go to Yihongyuan for more than ten days in a row."

Yihongyuan is a brothel in Chang'an. The original name was quite elegant, but when Sun Facai said, "Chang'an cannot live without Yihongyuan, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem," Guo Fengxiao was immediately tempted.

He didn't know what Jerusalem was, but the three words "Yihongyuan" were concise and concise enough for everyone to understand. It was actually an excellent name.

Then he persuaded the brothel to be renamed Yihongyuan, and also hoped that Jia Wenhe, a master of inscriptions, would leave his calligraphy treasures, but the old Jia felt unreasonable and flatly rejected this request.

Fortunately, the great calligrapher Zhong Yao stood up with a cigarette in his mouth. Not only did he write an inscription for Yihongyuan, he also took the trouble to do an in-depth review of it. He was very dedicated!

Sun Facai glanced at Guo Jia:

"You have such a small body, you need to exercise more, otherwise you will die on a woman's belly sooner or later."

"Don't worry, Brother Sun. I have sent a letter to Zhang Zhongjing in Wancheng, asking him to give me a recipe to strengthen my waist and strengthen my foundation. It will definitely work."

Sun Facai rolled his eyes:

"Don't forget to give me a copy."

Guo Jia was a little confused:

"Why do you want this thing? Chief Cai is pregnant and can't have sex. Aren't you in a hurry?"

Sun Facai rubbed his hands and said proudly:

"My daughter-in-law is worried about being known as jealous, and because she loves me so much, she plans to give me two concubines... Not taking concubines is actually a bad thing. I like ancient society so much!"

Guo Jia: "..."

Damn it, I ate dog food early in the morning, and I had to send someone to Yingchuan to pick up my family later.

Guo Jia had already married and started a business when he was in Yingchuan, but he often drank drunkenly, and there were no common topics between the couple. After coming to Chang'an, he was worried that it would affect his life, so he just sent some money back and did not take any money back. The family took it.

Now listening to Sun Facai's boastful display, the prodigal Guo Fengxiao also wants to have a family.

While the two were chatting, the performance of the ministers was almost over.

Liu Xie criticized the Yuan family a few words in cooperation, and Jia Xu read Zhuge Liang's carefully written essay.

Brother Liang's literary talent is nothing to say, all of which are antithetical sentences of parallel four and six. For example, Yuan Shao introduced himself as a concubine, promoted filial piety and integrity to an official position, and was supposed to support the king and assist the country, stabilize the Han Dynasty and prosper the Liu Dynasty; but he had a disobedient heart and wanted to usurp the throne. The sin is so serious that heaven and earth cannot tolerate it!

After hearing this, some ministers suddenly felt the taste.

Eh?

Jia Wenhe mainly blamed Yuan Benchu. It seems that the Yuan family still has a chance. He quickly asked someone to write a letter to Runan. The Yuan family can survive as long as the tail is cut off!

This was Jia Xu's strategy, to blindly force the Yuan family. The disciples and former officials of the fourth generation and the third prince were everywhere, so it was impossible to arrest them all.

But now it is revealed that we only want to deal with Yuan Shao, and the Runan Yuan family will definitely make a cut. In this way, there will be an opportunity.

Yuan Benchu ​​is the most strategic person in the Yuan family. Without him, the Yuan family would have nothing to worry about.

After Jia Xu finished reading, the ministers asked for war again. Liu Xie "hesitated again and again" and finally made the decision to remove Yuan Shao from all his posts.

The governor of Bohai, the governor of Jizhou, etc. are all gone.

From now on, Yuan Benchu ​​was a commoner and was deprived of the qualifications to compete for hegemony among princes.

Of course, this was only a unilateral announcement by the court. Yuan Shao would definitely not surrender and would continue to occupy Hebei, and would even seize Youzhou's territory as soon as possible.

But as long as the imperial court maintains its righteousness, when the attack reaches Hebei, the scene that depends on the propaganda may reappear.

Even the civil servants and generals around Yuan Shao will reconsider their options and end up in trouble after hearing the news.

Without the aura of the Yuan family, is Yuan Shao still worth following?

After Liu Xie announced his decision, he asked Jia Xu:

"What do Mr. Wenhe think of Yuan Benchu?"

Lao Jia Lan saved the trouble and directly quoted Cao Cao's comments:

"He is fierce and cowardly, he is always scheming, he cherishes his life when he does big things, he forgets his life when he sees small gains... he is not a hero!"

After speaking, he asked the courtier:

"What do you think?"

As soon as he took the lead, everyone naturally followed suit, and soon criticized Yuan Shao for his personal incompetence. Liu Xie took the opportunity to advise the courtiers that "those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black." He hoped that everyone would understand the situation and take care of themselves, and not follow Yuan Shao. Get too close to avoid being bewitched.

In the next period of time, being bewitched by Yuan Shao will be a basket case that can be used for all sins. As long as there are court officials who mess around, they can be said to be bewitched by Yuan Shao.

As for whether Yuan Benchu, a common man, would protest, this has nothing to do with Xiao Liu Xie.

At the end of the court meeting, everyone walked out of the palace. Sun Facai, Guo Jiazhong, Yao Tianfeng and others left the palace and went to a haggis soup shop together, and each ordered a large bowl of haggis.

This is a store invested by Sun Facai, not to make money, but to enjoy the joy of having breakfast in his hometown.

Tian Feng skillfully put two tablespoons of mutton oil chili into the bowl, then broke open the white flour flatbread and soaked it in, and said while working:

"His Majesty has approved my request to establish an exclusive law enforcement team for Tingwei, but he asked me to change it to a name more suitable for a man. I thought about it and decided to change it to Jisifu. What do you think?"

Sun Facai came up with a bad idea enthusiastically:

"It's just a group of law enforcement officers anyway. How about you change it to a law enforcement brigade?"

"It's easy to scare small businessmen and hawkers, so forget it."

Guo Jia rejected Sun Facai's suggestion and suggested:

"My side is the Secrecy Bureau. How about you name it the Security Bureau? National Security Bureau? Intelligence Bureau? MI6?"

Zhong Yao thinks these names are not good:

"Let's arrest the criminals and maintain law and order... The name is not important, the important thing is to have vigorous and resolute means. Lao Tian, ​​why don't you carry forward the Jinyiwei style? Everyone wears flying fish uniforms and walks on the streets to oppress people. It is full of sense and can also become a scenic spot in Chang’an.”

Tian Feng really had this plan, but considering that Feiyu suits were not cheap in the real world, he felt that Mr. Li might not agree.

Sun Facai thought for a while and said:

"I'll ask you tomorrow. In fact, people from the Secrecy Bureau should wear flying fish suits, but this stuff is too eye-catching. Comparatively speaking, it's more suitable for people who catch criminals. It's a deterrent."

Guo Jia took a piece of sheep blood into his mouth and asked Sun Facai:

"How is Yang Xiu doing at the factory?"

"It's good. He's literate and polite. Workers naturally admire educated people. Plus, he's very pragmatic now and doesn't talk big words. He's thriving in the factory."

There are now tens of thousands of workers in the industrial zone outside Chang'an City. Everyone performs their duties and lives a fulfilling life every day.

Yang Xiu also held a singing competition in various factory areas, workshops, etc., and planned a series of professional skills competitions to bring out the spirit of the workers.

While he was eating, a junior official from the research institute galloped towards him from a distance. If Ma Chao, who came over to eat, had not grabbed the reins in time, an accident would have almost occurred.

Xiao Ma asked calmly:

"Why are you so panicked?"

The official didn't bother to answer. He got off his horse and rushed into the haggis soup shop. Then he took out a handful of dark things from his arms and placed them on the table:

"Dean Sun, we found coal!"

Sun Facai: "..."

I understand your excitement, but you can't throw coal on my dining table, right?

He picked up the bowl, sat aside, and then asked:

"How long did you dig down to find it?"

"About four feet, which is about ten meters. This is just the surface. There should be more underneath, and it's quite large."

Sun Facai didn't care about eating anymore. He picked up the walkie-talkie on the table and said:

"A car is coming diagonally across from Weiyang Palace. It is for going outside the city. It must have off-road capabilities."

Soon, an electric four-wheeler with off-road capabilities drove over. As soon as Ma Chao saw that he was leaving the city, he wanted to join in the fun:

"Dean Sun, can I follow you?"

"Okay, it just so happens that we have fewer people around us who can protect everyone's safety. It's just right for you to go... pack a few pancakes and use an insulated lunch box to fill some haggis soup. Maybe we won't be able to come back until dark today."

The place where coal was discovered was not far from Chang'an. If it weren't for the mineral distribution map of the Ming and Qing Dynasties given by Li Yu, I would have never known that there was coal here.

Sun Facai hurriedly drank the haggis soup in the bowl, pulled Ma Chao who was nibbling dry biscuits, and Yushi Zhongcheng Zhongyao, led by the junior official of the institute, happily left Chang'an and drove to the place where coal was discovered.

Just in case, when passing by the cavalry camp, Ma Chao asked Zhao Yun to apply for a cavalry team of fifty people to accompany him.

Jia Xu emphasized more than once that Sun Facai was a person who disrupted the world of the Three Kingdoms and must be strictly protected at all times.

Now, Xiao Machao has completely remembered the teacher's words in his heart and executed them meticulously.

The electric four-wheeler drove all the way west for several hours before we saw the location of the coal mine - a bare and seemingly barren hill.

At the foot of the mound, there were twenty or thirty people standing. Next to it was a man-made cave from which coal was mined.

"Are you sure the coal was dug from here?"

Sun Facai looked at the coals scattered at the entrance of the cave and the small pile next to them. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he felt that these fools were really newborn calves not afraid of tigers.

Such a small hole looks like a robber's hole, and it's still about ten meters deep. What can be done if it's going to collapse?

He wanted to go down and take a look, but was stopped by Ma Chao:

"Dean Sun stays on the ground. I'll go down and take a look. It's just in time to test the searchlight that Marquis Wen gave me before."

After finishing speaking, Ma Chao took the lead in getting into the hole. Sun Facai opened the map and found that it was nearly a hundred miles away from the industrial area. The excavator could not drive there unless it was transferred through the real world.

However, with this distance, we can try to build railway tracks and transport the excavated coal directly to the industrial area. We can even build a coke plant in the middle to transport the retorted coal to improve efficiency.

Soon, Ma Chao climbed out, dirty but very excited:

"It feels like there's a lot of coal inside. I even dug down one meter. It's all densely packed with coal. Dean Sun, we're going to make a fortune!"

Sun Facai: "..."

Isn't it inappropriate for you to call me by my first name like that?

He was not dazzled by the good news, but calmly pointed to the other side of the mound:

"Dig from that side to see if there is a small stream of coal underneath, or if you find a coal seam..."

After speaking, he climbed to the top of the mound with the walkie-talkie, turned up the power of the walkie-talkie, then adjusted the channel to 111, and pressed the call button:

"Hey, hey, your majesty, can you hear me?"

Liu Xie's voice soon came from the intercom:

"Teacher Sun, I heard your voice, please speak!"

"Go to the real world and ask your master for a set of...five sets. I want five sets of Luoyang shovels for exploration. I want to explore the size and depth of the coal mine."

"I'm going to the real world right away."

After ending the call, Ma Chao asked curiously:

"Dean Sun, what is Luoyang Shovel? Is it related to Luoyang City?"

"A kind of tomb robbing tool, which flourished in Luoyang, so it was called this name. Nowadays, when doing underground exploration, basically the Luoyang shovel is used...Xiao Mengqi, do you remember the way you came here?"

"Remember."

"Drive back and wait until Luoyang gets the shovel, then drive here. I'll get a bigger car and bring everyone some food and drink."

"Okay, I'll go back right away."

After saying that, the guy got in the car, but he was worried that it would be too boring on the road alone, so he specially dragged a cavalryman along.

On the other side, Liu Xie arranged the work at hand and hurriedly went to the real world.

The barbecue has ended now, and everyone is sitting in the pavilion in the yard eating watermelon and chatting.

When Yue Fei saw Liu Xie, he quickly asked:

"Have you eaten, brother-in-law?"

"After eating, we just had breakfast over there... Sir, Teacher Sun found coal, but he is not sure if it is a coal mine. He wants five sets of Luoyang shovels for surveying."

Luoyang shovel?

Li Yu looked at Professor Zhou.

There are a lot of these things in the archaeological team, ranging in size. The thickest ones are thirty centimeters in diameter, and some are thinner than an arm. There are also full-pack shovel heads, half-pack shovel heads, etc., focusing on comprehensiveness.

Zhou Ruotong said:

"Luoyang shovels are usually made to order. I'll ask someone first to see if they are in stock."

She took her mobile phone and made a few calls. She was just about to ask Li Yu to drive to get it when she realized that this stinky guy had just drank beer and seemed to have drank a lot.

The most important thing is that Professor Zhou drank it himself.

In desperation, Li Yu had no choice but to call Zhang Guoan and ask him to find a box truck and pull Luoyang shovel over.

This thing has a lot of poles, and they are usually more than two meters long. They cannot fit in ordinary SUVs, so it is best to transport them in boxes.

Zhou Ruotong said to Li Yu:

"There are four sets in total, each set is about 40 meters, three fully-packed detection heads, and one half-packed excavation head. If it is not enough, I will look for more later."

The discovery of a coal mine is a big deal and should be taken seriously.

Not long after, a blue-brand box truck stopped at the gate of the B&B. Yuwen Chengdu and Lu Bu went over to help and unloaded the set of Luoyang City.

Mu Guiying looked at the sections of steel pipe and found it very interesting:

"If the length is not enough, can all these steel pipes be screwed together?"

Zhou Ruotong nodded and said:

"Yes, this is universal. Theoretically, this can connect the Luoyang shovel to an infinite length. However, if it is too long, it will be troublesome to operate, so we generally do not detect too deep a distance."

After Zhang Guoan led the box of goods away, everyone hurriedly loaded the Luoyang shovel onto the electric fifth wheel. They told Liu Xie how to drive, and the little guy drove back to the Three Kingdoms World.

With the exploration tools in hand, it’s time to check the size of the coal reserves!
