Ma'am, your vest fell off again

Chapter 349 Fire Tree Silver Flower Never Night

Old General Lian appreciated Gu Shaoqing's backup very much. Hearing this, his face turned dark, "Hmph, what is the emperor's heart, why don't you know?"

"Cough." Gu Shaoqing coughed in embarrassment, subconsciously glanced at Li Junhao, and was relieved to see that his expression was normal.

Although he has many grievances and grievances with the current Holy Majesty, Li Junhao is the prince after all, and it is not appropriate to speak in front of him.

"Shaoqing, in fact, I don't think it's the emperor's intention. The lack of security is caused by the crown prince behind the scenes."

“How come you see?”

"It's very simple. Think about it. The local county magistrates in the south of the Yangtze River are so busy that their feet don't stick to the ground. How can they have time to write papers and report them to the court? The bandits in the town ahead have everything in their hands. There is collusion, I thought about it, and there is no other person except the prince."

Gu Shaoqing was puzzled, "But why did the prince do this?"

The relationship between him and Li Chen is not very good, but they seldom turn against each other, so there is no reason to spend so much effort to deal with him.

Fu Xuanrong took a sip of the teacup Li Junhao used, "Simple, an enemy's friend is an enemy, you hold the military power, and you are on good terms with King Li, can he not regard you as a thorn in his side?"

"Yes, what Xuanrong said makes sense, Shaoqing, you can't just go to suppress the bandits in a daze, or you'll lose your life." General Lian said worriedly.

"But the emperor's order has already been issued. If I retreat now, the crown prince will not know what crime he will accuse me of."

After pondering for a while, Li Junhao finally opened his mouth, "Today, I will send a few secret guards to the town to check to see if there are ordinary people inside, if not..."

The corners of Fu Xuanrong's mouth rose, "If not, prepare dozens of catties of gunpowder, and let's blow him up like a fiery tree and silver flowers!"

That evening.

Fu Xuanrong took out the unlucky parrot from the cage, and smiled wretchedly, "Fugui, I have an important task for you to do now."

"Quack, quack!" The parrot was disturbed in its dream, and its hair exploded in protest.

Fu Xuanrong ignored its little emotions, and grabbed him out with five fingers together, "I specially ordered An Li to take you with me, not for you to come out to enjoy the blessings, go to the town for me to investigate tonight, I heard No!"

Perhaps it was the aura of the king of birds that frightened the poor parrot. It trembled like a leaf falling in the wind, and a tear of humiliation came out of its black eyes, "Gah!"

Fu Xuanrong smiled with satisfaction, "Very well, let's go."

The parrot flapped its wings and flew out from the window. Li Junhao flipped a page of the ancient book in his hand, and said indifferently; "It understands your words?"

"Of course, Fu Gui'er is my younger brother."

"Well, now the factory has been set up in sevens and eighties, and the houses of the refugees are also stepping up repairs. Once the bandits are resolved, you and I can return to Kyoto in at most two months."

Fu Xuanrong sat crookedly on the stool, with an unhappy expression on her face, "After staying outside for a long time, I hate that place in Kyoto that is full of fish and dragons. Everyone has a black heart hidden in their stomachs, and it makes me feel annoyed when I think about it."

"Then I'll take you out for a walk more in the future."

"Come on, I'm afraid there will be no more time in the future. Settling the refugees is a great achievement. The emperor must reward you a lot. Do you think the crown prince will continue to let you be a prince safely after you go back?"

A trace of disdain flashed in Li Junhao's moon-like cold eyes, "Now I am on par with him in power in the court, and it is still unknown who will win and who will lose."

"That's true. The prince has always been a person who likes to plan and control the overall situation. If he is not 100% sure, he probably won't make a move."

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll take a bath first, remember to call me when Fu Guier comes back."

"Go."

The night was getting dark, and after Fu Xuanrong finished washing, she dragged her long feathers and lay down on the bed. After waiting for a long time, there was finally some movement outside the window, and she got up with a voice of "嗤", and it was indeed the parrot that came back.

"Quack, quack!"

"Ow?"

"Gah!"

"Ow!"

"Quack, quack, quack!"

Li Junhao watched the chirping conversation between the two birds, and the corners of his eyes seemed to twitch.

"What does it say?"

"Oh, oh." Fu Guier said that the people in that town had been expelled, except for a large group of rogues.

"Well, what else?"

"Oh." He also said that the group had at least a dozen cannons, but the production was very rough, like the group that was eliminated a few years ago.

Li Junhao nodded, "It seems that this matter has indeed an inescapable relationship with the prince."

If it weren't for the royal family and dignitaries, how could it be so easy to deploy a dozen artillery pieces. You must know that there is only one in an ordinary barracks with thousands of people.

"Aww!" That hermaphrodite really spent all his money to get rid of Gu Shaoqing.

"That's true. You said earlier that you would strike preemptively and blow up those artillery pieces. What exactly do you plan to do?"

Phoenix flapped its wings a few times.

"Aw, ow, ow." I can communicate with all kinds of birds, and I will take Fu Guier out for a while, let each bird carry a gunpowder bag, and finally throw a fire bag down, let alone a thief, even a bird Wearing ten layers of steel armor will be blown to ashes!

"Alright, I've ordered General Lian to get the gunpowder, so go and call some birds."

"Ow!"

Fu Xuanrong blinked at the hard-working parrot a few times, and it followed out helplessly.

About half an hour later, Li Junhao and Gu Shaoqing were dividing the gunpowder into small paper packets, when suddenly hundreds of birds poured in from the window, and the battle was so overwhelming that General Gu's eyes almost widened. Out.

"What, what's the situation?"

Li Junhao had never seen so many birds gather together, but he was mentally prepared after all, so he didn't show any panic, "It was called by the peacock I raised."

"Ah? What kind of peacock is it? It's amazing!"

"I don't know. It's not the time to talk about these things. It's still important."

"it is good."

Gu Shaoqing grabbed those fluffy birds one by one, and wrapped the gunpowder tightly around their feet. Once they reached the destination, they only needed to flop a few times and they would fall off.

"Jun Hao, this is really interesting. Look, there are sparrows, kingfishers, magpies, and even crows. I really opened my eyes!"

"If you like it, let the bird breeder send you some to the mansion later."

"Don't, don't, I'm just talking, this thing is too delicate, I don't have time to serve." Besides, he is a man who marches and fights, and he hangs around with a bird cage all day long. Those who don't know think that He is retiring early, so he loses face.
