I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 122 I wish you all the best...

In Guandong, Wu Wang Liu Bi began to plan the layout;

Letters and envoys sent from Guangling, the capital city of the Wu Kingdom, to the countries in the Kanto region blocked all the gates of Guangling City.

In Chang'an City, the whole court also noticed this weird atmosphere, and various departments began to speed up their operations.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner under the personal supervision of Prime Minister Shentu Jia.

On the contrary, the princes, including Liu Sheng, have a rare leisure time, and they no longer have to be repeatedly observed under a magnifying glass by those speculators who want to "step on the prince's position" inside and outside the court;
Taking advantage of the court being busy with business, the frequency of the young masters leaving Weiyang Palace and playing on the streets is also increasing.

Only Liu Sheng, who has been nesting in his Guangming Palace, made lock armor for Liu Fei in accordance with the agreement between himself and his fifth brother Liu Fei.

Finally, in mid-July, when the breath of autumn came quietly, Liu Shengcai finally called his fifth brother Liu Fei to the apse of Guangming Hall where he was.

And after arriving at the Guangming Palace, looking at the chain armor that Liu Sheng was putting on him, Liu Fei's face was filled with sincere joy.

"Hey!"

"It's the first time I've seen such a lightweight armor!"

Speaking excitedly, Liu Fei did not forget to lower his head, tried to raise his hands, and twisted his body left and right.

When he found that his movements did not meet the resistance of the armor at all, but only made a trifling rolling sound of the steel ring, Liu Fei's brows immediately showed a touch of sincere gratitude.

"Little Nine..."

Unexpectedly, before the words of thanks could be uttered, another net-like steel net was gently placed on Liu Fei's head by Liu Sheng.

After adjusting the position left and right, Liu Fei realized that this chain mail armor not only has the upper body, but also has a 'hat'.

This hat covered Liu Fei's entire head, only revealing a palm-sized face;
The hem of the 'hat' is also very long, covering Liu Fei's entire neck, all the way to his chest, shoulders, and back butterfly bone.

In front of Liu Fei, Liu Sheng finally nodded in satisfaction when he looked at the Fifth Brother Liu Fei who was tightly protected by chain armor above his knees.

"Just the right size."

"Put another layer of armor on the outside, even if it doesn't reach the level of 'invulnerability', it should be almost the same..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out, Liu Fei's eyes widened in surprise!

"what?"

"Do you need another layer of armor?!"

With an exclamation, Liu Fei couldn't help but lowered his head, jumped up and down again, and weighed the weight of the chain mail.

When Liu Fei raised his head again, although he didn't say a word, the vivid eyes he looked at Liu Sheng clearly said: Isn't this heavy enough?

——With another layer of armor, how can I still fight? !
Seeing the astonishment in Liu Fei's eyes, Liu Sheng only smiled and shook his head;

He stepped forward, clenched his fists, and punched Liu Fei's strong abdomen, not lightly but not too hard.

After Liu Fei let out a muffled snort, then clutched his stomach, and bowed down with a flushed face, Liu Sheng's tired voice rang in Liu Fei's ear again.

"This chain mail can protect against sharp weapons and arrows;"

"Only against blunt attacks, this chain mail has basically no defense at all."

"If you only wear this pair of chain mail, Fifth Brother will definitely not have to worry about swords, knives, spears, spears, and dark arrows on the battlefield."

"But in case of encountering a blunt weapon, the fifth brother's chain armor is no different from wearing no armor."

Having said that, Liu Sheng also stretched out his hand, lifted the flushed Liu Fei from the ground, and sat down on the threshold beside him.

When Liu Fei calmed down a bit, Liu Sheng smiled and patted Liu Fei's shoulder again.

"If it's someone else, with a layer of chain armor on the inside and a layer of armor on the outside, they will definitely be exhausted to death."

"But fifth brother, can you be like others?"

"—Fifth brother, but he is going to be a great general!"

"You can't even carry the inner and outer layers of armor. How can Brother Wu be a great general?"

"How can you support me, Mrs. Liu, as 'brave and invincible'?!"

Sure enough, when Liu Sheng heard the word 'Great General' again, Liu Fei also had a high-spirited look on his face!

But the action of straightening his back was not completed yet, and he saw Liu Fei bowed his waist again, grinning his teeth, tightly covering his lower abdomen with his hands, and said with a little resentment: "Speak as you speak, why move your hands..."

"I still specialize in hitting the lower abdomen..."

The ambiguous muttering also caused the fourth brother Liu Yu and the seventh brother Liu Pengzu to laugh for a while, and looked at Liu Fei with friendly ridicule.

After being so noisy by several brothers, Liu Fei finally felt that the pain in his lower abdomen was relieved, and he finally breathed in the breath that was stuffed in his chest.

Tentatively straightened up, took a long breath cautiously, and then looked down at the mail armor on his body, Liu Feicai finally smiled and nodded to Liu Sheng.

"Xiao Jiu is right."

"If I can't even carry armor, then I don't need to say anything like 'to be a great general';"

"Wearing two layers of armor, inner and outer, should have never happened before."

"It's like exercising."

"—After all, only by being able to endure what ordinary people can't, can one achieve what ordinary people cannot."

Hearing this, Liu Sheng only smiled, then echoed, and came to the wrought iron platform again.

Taking a deep breath, he took out a steel bar from the stove, and started to forge again.

Seeing this, the two brothers Liu Yu and Liu Fei who were on the side couldn't help being stunned. They stepped forward and looked at the pile of steel in front of Liu Sheng full of doubts.

"Eh, Xiao Jiu?"

"Didn't the fifty catties of fried steel brought by the Shaofu be used to make this pair of mail armor on me?"

Asked in doubt, Liu Fei couldn't help lowering his head again, and confirmed again and again that the chain armor on his body was indeed made of wire rings connected in series;

After jumping up and down again, I was basically sure: even if the suit of mail armor on my body was not as heavy as fifty catties (han catties), it was basically the same.

But looking at the edge of the forging platform in front of Liu Sheng, the steel bars piled up one after another clearly weighed more than forty kilograms...

"Xiao Jiu, do you want to make another pair of chain mail?"

The suspicious question made Liu Sheng nod with a sullen face, but his hands still didn't stop.

Seeing this, brothers Liu Yu and Liu Fei looked at each other for a while, but the expression of doubt on their faces was even more serious.

——Today, Liu Sheng called Liu Fei to try out the armor, and Liu Fei was naturally overjoyed;

Calling the fourth brother Liu Yu to come together, besides showing off his new armor, naturally he also planned to help Liu Sheng tidy up, give Liu Sheng a helping hand, and send these tools back to the Shaofu.

But now it seems that Liu Sheng wants to make another pair of chain mail?
"Apart from me, who else is going to lead the army?"

The questioning sound full of hesitation finally made Liu Sheng stop the movement in his hand, and lightly pressed the stone hammer on the steel bar, his eyes full of helplessness, but cast to an unknown direction outside the hall.

"This person~"

"——not as good as Fifth Brother."

"I was not called to make this chain mail, nor to go to battle to kill the enemy;"

"It's because this person has done too much with bad intentions in his daily life, and he has accumulated too many enemies."

"That's why I asked for this locket from me, lest one day I fall asleep and never wake up again."

Saying this in a tone full of resentment, Liu Sheng sighed again, picked up the stone hammer again, and beat the steel bar in front of him one after another.

Hearing Liu Sheng's words, Liu Fei nodded thoughtfully.

Can you find fifty catties of fried steel, and force Liu Sheng to make another pair of chain mail?

——This person, I'm afraid he has a lot of background!

But judging from what Liu Sheng said, it seems that it is not convenient to reveal the identity of this person?

Thinking of this, Liu Fei stepped forward tentatively, pretending to be casual and asked, "Hey, Xiao Jiu."

"The coward you said..."

"Where does he live?"

It was full of curious inquiries, but it didn't attract Liu Sheng's attention at all;
Continuing to be busy with the affairs in hand, Liu Sheng threw out a sentence without raising his head: "Weiyang Palace, the main hall of Xuanshi."

·
While Liu Sheng, Liu Fei, and the four brothers Liu Yu and Liu Pengzu were chatting in the apse of Guangming Palace, in the main hall of Xuanshi of Weiyang Palace, Liu Qi, the "coward" Liu Sheng called, was sitting on the imperial couch with a gloomy expression above.

Under the imperial steps, all the court officials and ministers sat on both sides, and almost everyone's face was filled with worry.

After a long while like this, at last, it was Prime Minister Shen Tujia's aging figure who slowly got up from his seat and walked to the center of the hall under the watchful eyes of the courtiers and officials in the hall.

"His Majesty;"

"The rain and hail on Mount Heng may have become so severe that the court has to adjust food supplies for disaster relief."

"According to Hengshan's report, among the rain and hailstorm, the largest hailstone had a diameter of five inches!"

"—You must know that the fists of ordinary men are no more than four inches..."

"Such a large hailstone fell from the sky, and even smashed a two-foot-deep hole on the ground!"

"—and the farmers in Guanzhong plow the land before spring, but most of them plow less than one foot deep..."

"Such severe rain and hail has never happened since Emperor Taizu Gao established the Han Dynasty..."

Hearing Shentujia's low-pitched performance, the courtiers and officials sitting on both sides of the Xuanshi Hall also began to echo with shaking their heads and sighing.

But the attention of most people is not on this sudden natural disaster.

——including Emperor Liu Qi...

"What the prime minister said is true."

"Such severe rain and hail will inevitably make Hengshan County's grain harvest complete this year;"

"What's more, people will be killed and injured by smashing, and residential buildings will be destroyed."

"I have ordered the Shaofu to allocate 300 million shi from the grain in Ao Cang and send it to Hengshan County."

"As soon as the disaster relief matter is dealt with, I have ordered the court officials to deal with it as soon as possible!"

"only······"

"This sudden rain and hail really makes me feel a little uneasy..."

Said in a low tone, Tianzi Qi couldn't help standing up from the imperial couch;

Putting his hands behind his back, he walked out two steps with a gloomy expression, and Tianzi Qi's worried tone rang out again in Xuanshi Hall.

"Last month, the stargazing officials reported that there was a comet appearing in the northeast direction of the sky."

"Yesterday night, the stargazing officials reported again, saying that last night, the Yinghuo star went retrograde to the northern stars, and saw the moon passing through the stars again;"

"Sui Xing also went retrograde to the Tianting area, and continued to go retrograde..."

"—All of this, I'm afraid, is not an auspicious sign..."

Following Tian Ziqi's worrying voice, the courtiers and officials in the palace finally expressed the worries in their hearts without reservation.

This is the focus of today's court discussion and the court's attention!
After all, when there is rain and hail in Hengshan County, the court has a fixed regulation to deal with it, and can allocate food for disaster relief, and then exempt Hengshan County from this year's tax;

But Tianzi Qi just said these things, but no one can solve them...

——Ying Huo Xing is actually Mars in the cognition of later generations;

The year star is Jupiter.

For future generations, the orbits of Mars and Jupiter naturally have their own unique orbits;
It's just that the rotation of the earth and the revolution of all the planets in the solar system around the sun will cause the orbits of Mars and Jupiter to appear "retrograde" from the perspective of the observer on the earth.

For such a phenomenon, future generations will naturally not feel that there is any problem.

But for today, this backward civilization that is still in the feudal era, this ignorant era that has not abandoned the "stargazing and divination, to determine the country's great strategy", Mars and Jupiter are moving against the orbit at the same time overnight, but there is no doubt ominous omen.

To use the commonly used rhetoric in the novels handed down to later generations to describe it, it is "I look at the sky at night, and wherever I look, there are ominous omens everywhere."······

Facing such a strange celestial phenomenon, all the courtiers and officials could only lower their heads worriedly;
Even Shen Tujia could only shake his head and bow to Liu Qi with a sigh, then sat back in his seat silently.

For this era, the difference in the sky must mean that there will be major changes or major disasters.

It's like the slogan shouted by the Yellow Turban bandits at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty - the sky is dead, the yellow sky should be established, the year is Jiazi, and the world is auspicious;
In the eyes of people in this era, any weird celestial appearance must mean that the gods in the dark have issued an early warning for some changes that have not yet happened, or issued an announcement about things that are dissatisfied with themselves or dissatisfied people. warn.

And in the face of such a change, apart from the emperor who claims to be the "Son of Heaven", there is absolutely no second person who can give a reasonable explanation for this "enlightenment" from God...

"There are abnormalities in the sky. As the emperor who replaces the herdsmen of the sky, I have an inescapable responsibility."

"The rain and hail that happened in Hengshan is God's warning to me!"

With a muffled growl, all the courtiers and officials in the palace focused their attention on the top of the imperial steps;
Seeing Tianzi Qi sitting back on the imperial couch with a stern expression, he sighed full of guilt, and then cast his eyes on Shen Tujia, the prime minister who was the chief courtier.

"The sky is warning, and there will be rain and hail in Hengshan. I should bathe and change clothes, fast for half a month, and reflect on my mistakes in front of my ancestors."

"During this period of time, the affairs of the DPRK and China have to be troubled by the prime minister..."

Deep voices sounded, but Shen Tujia just got up silently and bowed to Liu Qi.

It was also at this moment that Nei Shi Chao Cuo, who was not far behind Shentujia, got up and walked to the center of the hall under the disdainful eyes of everyone.

"His Majesty!"

"I believe that the gods have come to warn His Majesty with such a violent change in the sky. It must be in the Kanto region. Some things happened that both people and gods were angry with, and even the gods were furious!"

"Because in the past few years after His Majesty took the throne, the court's policy of governing the world has not changed in any way."

"In the past few years, Your Majesty has never done anything wrong enough to make God feel so angry."

"In this way, the one who made a big mistake must be..."

"—Okay, okay~"

Unexpectedly, before Chao Cuo could finish speaking, the deep voice of Emperor Liu Qi sounded again;

When Chao Cuo raised his head full of doubts, he saw Liu Qi looking at him with a very serious warning!

"I'm not so stupid as to be so irresponsible."

"As the emperor of the Han family, I will never push the anger of the gods on other people."

"Even in Kanto, if a certain clan prince made a big mistake and angered God so much, it is because I, the king, didn't teach these clan princes well."

"—If I have sinned, I can't let God implicate other people in the world; I, the emperor, are responsible for all the sins in the world." I bow)
"I'm going to take a bath and fast, and punish myself in Gaomiao for thinking about my mistakes..."

After leaving this sentence with guilt, Tianzi Qi turned his back, waved his hands casually behind him, and walked towards the apse accompanied by palace eunuchs.

And after Tian Ziqi left, taking advantage of the opportunity for the courtiers and officials to withdraw from Weiyang Palace, Shen Tujia finally got up shaking his head and sighing, and came to Chao Cuo's side.

"The intention of the internal history, Your Majesty, you can see it better than anyone else."

"But this time, Neishi really shouldn't be so stubborn anymore, holding on to those clan princes who committed crimes."

"—especially Chu Wang Liu Wu..."

Waking up with a meaningful sound did not arouse Chao Cuo's reflection. Instead, he cast his sinister gaze on Shentu Jian's earnest and earnest face.

"The prime minister doesn't need to be so anxious and complacent!"

""Strategy to Cut Fans" is already on the verge of breaking out, and it has to be released!"

"Even right now, because His Majesty punished me for thinking about my mistakes in Gaomiao, it's just a slight delay in the progress of the "Strategy for Reducing Domains."

"On the contrary, the prime minister, it can be said that from the beginning to the end, he never condemned the king of Chu, Liu Wu, and those clan princes who committed serious crimes;"

"—Could it be that those clan princes have already bribed the prime minister in private?"

"Could it be that the praises of the prime minister in the market are just illusions deliberately created by the prime minister?"

Hearing Chao Cuo's question, Shen Tujia only got angry subconsciously, and looked at Chao Cuo with a little disgust immediately.

——Why are you so ignorant of good and evil!

But soon, Shen Tujia shook his head with a wry smile, took one last look at Chao Cuo, and turned to leave.

When he reached the gate of the palace, Shentujia stopped again, turned around slowly, and stared deeply into the depths of Chao Cuo's eyes.

"A person as smart as Nei Shi will not fail to understand what I want to express."

"The matter has come to this, and I only have one sentence to send to Nei Shi;"

"——I wish you all the best for yourself..."
