Chapter 29 Zeng Gongliang

It is also very troublesome to eat too much peach. At least when the ox cart was pulled home, few people were willing to move anymore. Yun Zheng led the ox and looked back at the people on the cart. He only felt a burst of happiness. Life should have lived like this.

In the far away city of Bianliang, the time was for officials to leave. Zeng Gongliang, the attendant of Tianzhang Pavilion, was still staying in the office and reading memorials from all over the country. These memorials were all expired documents that had been prepared to be processed. What he wanted to see was not those tedious official exchanges, but some interesting things that happened everywhere.

Today, I heard a chief of officials talk about the matter of Tianzhu in Shu, so his curiosity was completely seduced. As the head of the Ministry of Revenue, he really wanted to see what the whole story was.

Finally, he found out from a large number of memorials. For these memorials, he went to the Imperial Heaven Supervision and paid a lot of money to get these things back.

In the Song Dynasty, abandoned memorials were burned and could only be read by God, so the person in charge was the Imperial Heavenly Prison. Of course, important documents would be archived and filed for retrieval. As for a Taoist temple that was bombarded by thunder in the vast documents of the Song Dynasty, it was really nothing.

The memorials of the Chengyanguan incident were mixed with various auspicious and evil signs, and were inconspicuous at all. Since the official learned about his life experience, he no longer believed in any auspicious or evil signs, so Jia Changchao would not show these things to the emperor, and he was deposed at this level.

Zeng Gongliang opened the document and saw half of the receipt on it, which read "I know: three words. Zeng Gongliang frowned when he saw these three words. Jia Changchao was so domineering. The reply to the memorial had its own rhythm. How could a minister do it? There was only half here, and the other half must have replied to the officials in Shu." Taoist priests used the water and land conference to worship living people? Interesting!" Zeng Gongliang smiled and shook his head and continued to look down. When he saw the sound shook the sky, the fire light soared into the sky, the walls fell, and the flying stones splashed three miles away, he could no longer laugh. His hand holding the memorial was shaking slightly. Others might think this was a punishment of heaven, but Zeng Gongliang, a famous gunpowder expert, did not think so.

"The power is too great, it's too great. If the effectiveness is reduced by 80%, this should be the movement that can only be caused by the explosion of gunpowder. The smoke is fierce, and the bombardment is suddenly! Who did it?"

Zeng Gongliang quickly searched the name of the person mentioned in the memorial. The scholar who was sacrificed to him was actually an official. The seventeen-year-old Chengfenglang, if he was not a full-time official, he should be the rewarded official position.

Yun Zheng!

Zeng Gongliang had already remembered the name of this person tightly.

"Tomorrow, you will know this person by going to the Ministry of Personnel to draw the experience."

When he walked out of the gate of the Imperial Heaven Prison, it was already dusk outside. Before he arrived in Washizi, the unique aura of cattle, horses, pigs and sheep came from the nose. The ground was covered with bloody sewage. Zeng Gongliang frowned and walked past there on tiptoe. There were already hundreds of small boats moored on the river next to him. The Bianliang Water Gate will only open at this time, and these ships carrying pigs and sheep will come in.

"The switch time must be placed in midnight in the future!" Zeng Gongliang murmured in a low voice and quickly passed through Washizi. There were vendors and servants carrying pigs and sheep corpses. Now these people are becoming more and more unscrupulous. How can a place like the Imperial Heavenly Prison become a place to kill pigs and sheep? Are you not afraid of attracting heavenly punishment?

When he got on his carriage, the white and thin silk clothes on his body were soaked in sweat. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and let the breeze penetrate, so that he could feel more comfortable.

The mansion of Ding Dunming Palace scholar Ding Dunming Palace is located in the Four-eye Bridge outside Xishuimen. Zeng Gongliang, who was unsure of his mind, wanted to discuss with this old friend who jointly wrote "The General Essence of Wu Jing" on his order, whether the heavenly punishment of Chengdu is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.

After being welcomed by an old friend and arrived in the study, Zeng Gongliang did not respond to the greetings with his old friend, but skillfully removed the outline of the "Martial Jing Zongyao" that had just been compiled from his old friend's bookshelf, pointing to the article of gunpowder and said to Ding Du: "Your Gongzi, you said three years ago that the sound of gunpowder is like a thunderbolt, but it's a pity that it is not effective enough. If there might be a kind of gunpowder in this world that can shake a hundred miles, the flames soar into the sky, the walls collapse, and the flying stones splash three miles away, what do my brother think?"

Ding Du laughed and pulled Zeng Gongliang back to the couch to prepare it. He pushed the sour plum soup brought by the maid to Zeng Gongliang and said, "No, no hurry. I will drink this bowl of sour plum soup first to relieve the heat, and then talk about gunpowder. The smell of sweat on your body makes me look at me like a unkempt person!"

Zeng Gongliang laughed silently, shook his sleeves, and drank the sour plum soup to wait for Ding Du's answer. His old friend has now entered the Ministry of Personnel. Rumors of his worship of prime minister have spread. His words are firm, but Zeng Gongliang does not believe it. An old man with a simple personality and does not value appearance is not a good thing to be a minister and a torment.

"My brother first, where did your description come from?" Ding Du always looked slow.

Zeng Gongliang took out the memorial from his arms, opened it, and pointed it at one of them to Ding Du.

After carefully reading the memorial, Ding Du said: "During the Chunhua period of Emperor Taizong, Lu Mengzheng was the prime minister. At that time, everyone thought that government affairs were clear and clear. Who knew that there was a demon fire with lightning to descend to Tianzhang Pavilion. For a moment, the entire Tianzhang Pavilion was destroyed by Zhu Rong's hands. Fortunately, it was rebuilt later. Otherwise, you, the attendant of Tianzhang Pavilion, would be unjustified."

Zeng Gongliang shook his head and said, "Otherwise, Tianzhang Pavilion is a fire, and Chengyan Temple is an explosion. This memorial mentioned that Chengyan Temple has saltpeter energy after the explosion. You and I know that saltpeter is indispensable in gunpowder.

Furthermore, someone was sacrificed by a Taoist priest in Chengyan Temple. I think he must have a lot of resentment in his heart. If he happened to have such terrifying gunpowder, I would not be able to judge the matter of Chengyan Temple by heaven.

My brother is well-informed and remembered. Since he is already in the Ministry of Personnel, he doesn’t know if he has a memory of a false position from the eighth rank?”

Ding Du smiled and said to Zeng Gongliang: "You are not here to ask me about it, but to take the exam for me. Let's talk about it, I only remember the Enmeng official during the Qingli period. I am far away, but I can't remember it."

"Yun Zheng! Yes, it's this Yun Zheng. He is only 17 years old this year and is a false position as Chengfenglang. His hometown is Shuzhong."

Ding Du's face changed a little, and he looked at Zeng Gongliang and said, "You are probably right. This young man is not simple. There are 11 virtual officials who have the most impressed by the Ministry of Personnel. Yun Zheng is ranked ninth, a young hero!"

Zeng Gongliang laughed and said, "Only extraordinary people can achieve extraordinary things. Brother Gongzhi, talk quickly, I can't wait."

Ding Du looked at Zeng Gongliang with a strange expression and said, "The official document of the Ministry of Personnel records that this son opened a business road in Dousha Pass. This business road is not simple. It can exchange iron tools for Qingtang horses from the Tubo people! So the official, and in order to ensure the smoothness of this business road, the local government specially used heavy troops to wipe out the largest bandit nest entrenched near Dousha Pass. Countless bandits were all given heads, and no one escaped in writing. The reason why Lu Qingyuan, the magistrate of Chengdu Prefecture, was able to return to Beijing was one of the achievements of the bandit suppression!"

After listening to Ding Du's words, Zeng Gongliang was a little disappointed. He opened up a business road and contributed horses, which was indeed worthy of the court's award for him as an official. However, such a background is different from what he thought, and it is not in line with the young hero Ding Du just said, and it is not worth Ding Du's list of him as the ninth place in the world, so he continued to look at Ding Du and wait to listen to the following.

"You have heard of it, and I will enter the center, so I am fortunate to see some secrets of spies, including Yun Zheng. I can't tell you the truth, I can only tell you that this boy killed more than 2,000 people in the same way, including a large family in Tubo! The whole process is so thrilling and the accuracy of timing is rare in the world."

"That's right. Can you transfer this boy to the capital? I really want to have a long talk with him and ask about gunpowder. My Song Dynasty lacks war horses and has been defeated in the plains. Facing the Khitans who are flying, they are always powerless. If you master such a powerful weapon, you will definitely be able to teach the Khitans to never return, and it is not impossible to destroy Li Yuanhao."

Ding Du smiled bitterly and said, "I'm telling you some secrets. I'm already breaking the ban. How can I steal this person from the secret spy? This son has become the banned body of the secret spy department and cannot be interfered with by others."

"Spy Department?" Zeng Gongliang asked in confusion.
