Wei and Jin cooks

Xun Fan's eyes widened and he took two random steps back, but he couldn't avoid the knife. He just watched helplessly as the knife hit him in the face...

When the knife was about to hit his forehead, a sword pierced with a hiss and hit the knife with a clang. When the knife tilted, Xunfan also jumped with his left foot and fell to the ground, avoiding it.

Xun Fan turned his head dumbly and saw that Zhao Shen had no sword in his hand and could only fight with his bare hands in the enemy group. While fighting back, he rushed towards him, "Save Xun Fan!"

He couldn't die here. Although the Zhao family wanted to aspire to the throne, Xun Fan was of great concern. If he died outside due to a business trip or suffered a stab wound, I don't know how many rumors there would be in the future.

Zheng Zhi was blocked for a moment and almost went crazy. He could only see Xun Fan at this time, so he kicked the fallen sword away, rushed up in two steps, held the knife and stabbed Xun Fan.

Xun Fan kicked his feet to the ground and quickly retreated, and the knife pierced his thigh.

Xun Fan screamed.

Zhao Shen was still some distance away from Xun Fan. He glanced at the sound and couldn't help shouting: "Yuan Li!"

Yuan Li, who had withdrawn his strength, secretly gritted his teeth, and the movements of his hands became fierce. After killing two people in a row, he no longer wanted to fight. He turned around, took a long step, and blocked Zheng Zhi who was about to slash Xun Fan's neck with his sword. He felt cruel in his heart. He pierced the opponent with one sword, kicked him away and then stretched out his hand to drag Xun Fan up.

Xunfan stretched out his hand to cover his thigh. The blood on his hand made him unable to stand at all.

Zhao Shen also came over to kill him. He took Xunfan with just one look, swung his sword and took off a piece of clothing from his body, and strangled his thigh hard, but his face was still ugly, "There is too much bleeding, we need to see a doctor. Yuan Li, let your people come in."

Yuan Li remained silent and asked, "Why is Minister Zhao here?"

Zhao Shen looked at him sharply, "I happened to be passing by, General Yuan, how long will it take for the manpower you left outside the house to stay at this time?"

Xun Fan didn't see that Yuan Li had any intention to kill him. After all, he saved him three times in just two quarters of an hour. But Zhao Shen himself was a military general and had fought against Yuan Li. How could he not know that he was holding back?

He understood what Yuan Li was thinking, but he didn't support it, and he thought Zhao Hanzhang would never agree.

Yuan Li looked at him silently for a moment. After three breaths, he took the initiative to look away and shouted to Shi Si, "Give the signal."

Shi Si responded and took out a tube from his arms. After pulling it open, he only heard a hiss, and a ray of light flew into the air with a loud whistle, and then disappeared...

The soldiers squatting outside the Sheriff's Mansion received the signal and immediately drew the knives hidden behind their backs, climbed over the wall, or rushed in through various doors, "The angels are handling the case, and the rest are leaving -"

They roared all the way and rushed into the main courtyard. Whether they were outside the courtyard who wanted to support Yu Hong or those who were still fighting in the courtyard, they were instantly surrounded. Others rushed directly into the backyard and captured all of Yu Hong's family members. .

Taking advantage of the chaos in the yard, Yu Hong covered his neck and almost fled to the wall under the escort of Zheng Quan and others. However, he was caught by Yuan Li's soldiers who fell from the sky.

After the chaos was over, Shi Si stepped forward, touched Zheng Zhi's nose and said, "General, he is still alive."

Yuan Li: "I pierced the right side of the chest. Unless his heart grows on the right side, how can he survive? Call him a doctor. To convict Yu Hong, we need his confession."

Zhao Shen was still busy with Xun Fan, and he said to Yuan Li: "Hurry up and fetch him, and save Taifu Xun first!"

Yuan Li agreed and asked Shi Si to find the doctor.

Seeing Xun Fan's face getting paler, Zhao Shen couldn't help but be anxious. He simply asked his people to go to the backyard to find various fabrics, needlework, scissors and medicinal materials, and asked people to carry Xun Fan to the couch in the house. Take action.

Yuan Li narrowed his eyes and wandered around him, "Does the minister also have medical skills?"

How fresh. Scholars in this era would be embarrassed to call themselves scholars if they didn't know some medical skills.

What's more, Zhao Shen also calls himself a Taoist. He has traveled abroad for many years and can treat basic injuries, not even worse than ordinary doctors.

However, Xun Fan was old and bleeding a lot, so Zhao Shen thought it would be better to see a doctor. If the doctor can't make it in time, it's not impossible for him to get there.

Zhao Shen picked up the scissors and quickly cut off his trousers, then tied the cloth tightly on his upper thigh, quickly cleaned his wound, and then picked up a needle to sew it up.

Although Yuan Li didn't understand medical skills, he often watched military doctors deal with trauma. He knew how to do it himself. His brows jumped sharply when he saw this, "Shilang Zhao, that's not how wounds are sewn..."

Zhao Shen turned a deaf ear, as long as he could stop the bleeding at this time, why should he care so much?

Xun Fan couldn't even scream, his face was pale, and his lips had no color at all. He was trembling when Zhao Shen started sewing, but later his eyes were half closed and he could hardly react.

As soon as Zhao Shen retracted the needle, the doctor was dragged in by someone running all the way. He was a little angry at first, but when he saw the blood and flesh flying everywhere in the yard, he was too frightened to say anything. When he was dragged into the house and saw Xun Fan, he didn't dare to speak anymore.

He knew Xun Fan. It could be said that no one in this city did not know Xun Fan. In the past two months, since the heavy rains continued, he had appeared to provide disaster relief.

So the people thought he was a good official.

Seeing him lying on the couch covered in blood, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, the doctor stamped his feet and said "Oh," and hurriedly stepped forward.

He untied the straps on his legs, then immediately opened the medicine box, took out a medicine bottle from a holster, poured out a black and red pill and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xunfan still had some consciousness and weakly took it in his mouth. The doctor grabbed the needle bag and shouted: "Your Majesty, chew it quickly. If you chew this medicine, you can survive."

Xun Fan, who was almost unconscious, vaguely heard it and started chewing hard, but this was just what he thought. In fact, he just moved his mouth slowly and almost couldn't hold the pills in his mouth and fell out.

Zhao Shen looked anxious and wanted to reach out and crush the pills for him. Just as he was about to do it, he saw Xunfan bite the pill firmly and break it in one bite. The force of chewing gradually increased.

The doctor had already begun to insert needles, tearing open his clothes and inserting many needles. The wound that was still bleeding slowly after suturing slowly stopped bleeding, and Xunfan's breathing began to take a little longer.

Zhao Shen heard it keenly and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Xun Fan had survived this disaster for the time being, but it would depend on what happens next.

Yuan Li stared at Xun Fan's lips, and when he saw the blue-white aura on his lips began to dissipate, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was a pity that he missed this good opportunity.

He turned around and left, asking people to take the people in the yard into custody, and at the same time take over the county magistrate's mansion.

The backyard of the Sheriff's Mansion was filled with people crying and fighting. When Yu Hong's two sons and daughter were dragged out, they were still confused and had no idea what was going on.

Yuan Li only glanced at him and said: "Take him to the prison and escort him back to the capital together."

If Xun Fan cannot survive, Yu Hong's family will be implicated.

Xun Fan was not out of danger. Zhao Shen left the doctor to take care of him, and then went to Yuan Li angrily, "You want to kill Xun Fan?"

Yuan Li did not admit it, "Shilang Zhao, it was Yu Hong who poisoned him, and Zheng Zhi who stabbed Taifu Xun. Even we were about to leave the house smoothly, but it was your sudden visit that ruined my affairs. Yu Hong escaped and caused the current catastrophe. Isn't it appropriate to place all the blame on me?"

Zhao Shen looked at him firmly, "No matter how many reasons you have, you can't hide it from me. The matter is already like this. I don't want to pursue it, but I want to warn you, don't do anything unnecessary. Xunfan must return safely." To Luoyang."

He whispered: "Even if he wants to die, it must be the general's wish, not your own wish."

After warning Yuan Li, Zhao Shen went to the radio station to send a report to Luoyang. This matter was not a small matter. Not to mention Xun Fan was seriously injured, the governor of a county dared to assassinate two angels. This was a major case and the court must know it immediately. .

Nowadays, radio stations are no longer a secret. Zhao's weapons workshop has produced more radio stations. The telegraph department in the palace receives a large number of messages from all over the world every day.

It was also because of this that Zhao Hanzhang had greater control over the local area.

Because there is too much information, the Telegraph Department needs to process it first after receiving it, and then hand it over to the secretaries and supervisors nearby. They will prioritize it and send it to Zhao Hanzhang or Zhongshu Sheng and Menxia Sheng.

Of course, most of them are sent to Zhongshu and Menxia departments, unless there is a major accident.

Such as now.

Fan Ying, who was on duty as secretary supervisor, saw Zhao Shen's telegram and was so frightened that she went directly to Zhao Hanzhang, "General, Xun Fan was stabbed and seriously injured. He is not out of danger yet."

Zhao Hanzhang frowned and reached out to take the telegram.

Zhao Shen put it simply and clearly. Because he knew that someone would pass the telegram, he did not name Yuan Li. Instead, he passed all responsibilities to Yu Hong and Zheng Zhi, and praised Yuan Li in the telegram for his proper handling and timely rescue. , but Xun Fan was old, so he was seriously injured, which would probably be a disaster.

Zhao Hanzhang squeezed the paper tightly, and first asked someone to appoint an imperial physician, and open a warehouse to prepare some medicinal materials to stop bleeding and nourish blood and Qi. "Deploy a team of forbidden troops to escort the imperial physician. We must protect Grand Tutor Xun and bring him back to Luoyang safely."

After the others took the order and left, Zhao Hanzhang asked in a deep voice: "Why did Zhao Shen go to Xun Fan?"

The disaster relief areas of several angels have been divided long ago, and they are all going to the hardest-hit areas, and the two people's disaster areas are not close to each other.

Fan Ying: "Maybe I passed by on my way back to Beijing."

Zhao Hanzhang sneered: "This is too passing, it's half a circle. Huh, it's probably because his hands were itchy. When he came back, he figured out some mess and passed by."

Zhao Hanzhang even suspected that he was the one responsible for this disaster, "I believe him, but those old officials in the court may not believe him, nor may they believe me."

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes and thought for a while before saying: "Since the news has been sent to the Secretary's Prison via the Telegraph Department, it is no longer a secret. You can send it to the Zhongshu Provincial Department for filing as usual."

Fan Ying agreed and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to send more people to keep an eye on those old ministers?"

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at her and said, "No, don't do unnecessary things."

Fan Ying retreated.

Zhao Hanzhang sat quietly for a moment with his eyes lowered. Zeng Yue came in quietly and stood aside silently. She recovered slightly and said softly: "Put two more people next to Your Majesty. You don't have to do anything, just keep an eye on the people who come to the palace to find him." , especially the Xun group."

Zeng Yue agreed.

Zhao Hanzhang tapped the table lightly with his finger and thought about all the possible outcomes before getting up and walking out.

The sun had set in the west, and half of the sky was covered with orange-red sunset glow. Zhao Hanzhang turned around and headed towards the star observatory.

Because she had no money, the observatory was not built very high, only large and open.

This area was originally a garden. In order to save money, she directly had all the flowers and plants pulled out, filled in and laid green bricks, and then chose the best location to start building the observatory.

There were only thirty-three steps, and Guo Pu wanted ninety-nine, but when Zhao Hanzhang saw the budget, he asked him to wait.

So only level 33 was built.

The surrounding houses have been allocated to him. Guo Pu eats, sleeps and plays here, and naturally works here.

Fu Tinghan likes him very much. Guo Pu is the friend he has met so far and can talk to him. The best thing is that he also knows a lot of knowledge that he doesn't know.

Fu Tinghan found it amazing that Guo Pu could even calculate which day he would be hit on the head by something falling when he returned home. He couldn't help but become obsessed with it recently.

Guo Pu taught Fu Tinghan everything he could. He was willing to teach Fu Tinghan everything Zhao Shen wanted to learn from him but couldn't.

Of course, Fu Tinghan also taught him many magical things, so he felt that they were teaching each other.

For example, Fu Tinghan is tinkering with something now. He shakes it quickly with his hands, and the several thread-like things connected together emit a dazzling light, which flashes and then slowly stabilizes, which is extremely glaring.

Everyone around Fu Tinghan screamed, and Guo Pu couldn't help saying "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", and anxiously walked around him, wanting to push Fu Tinghan away and do it himself.

Fu Tinghan shook it for a while, and then stopped when he saw that the brightness of the light stabilized.

As soon as he got out of the way, someone immediately took his place, "Shang Shu, can I shake it?"

Fu Tinghan smiled and waved his hand, "Shake it."

Guo Pu thought the same thing, and was about to drive them all out. When he turned around, he saw Zhao Hanzhang standing at the door, and immediately waved to her, "Come and see, Ting Han has made something wonderful."

Only then did everyone realize that Zhao Hanzhang was coming, and they all bowed and saluted.

Zhao Hanzhang nodded to them, glanced at the luminous threads, looked at the primary generator that was being fought over, and exclaimed: "It can already be so small?"

Guo Pu said disgustedly: "Do you know the goods? This is what I'm talking about. Even though it's just a few wires, it emits light, like the sun, much brighter than a candle. What's so good about this generator? It’s just smaller than the pedal, and we don’t lack space to put it.”

Zhao Hanzhang: "The filament is just tungsten filament. It is not difficult to make. The difficulty is that this generator is three times smaller than the previous one. This means that the radio station can move quickly with a small amount of manpower."

The wireless channels at this time are extremely clean, and even a radio station with only 40 to 50 watts can fly to the next state to the next state, so if this main generator only supplies radio stations, it is completely sufficient.

Zhao Hanzhang was very happy.

Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang's mood improved, Fu Tinghan couldn't help but laugh, "I'll give you this generator. I'll make another one later and send it to the weapons workshop as a sample."

Zhao Hanzhang did not refuse. In the future, she would travel lightly and simply, so this generator was necessary. The generator they used now was still too big, so it could only be used locally or in the military.

Guo Pu stood aside and waited for them to finish speaking before saying: "Give her the generator, then give me this tungsten wire, and give me a big generator. I don't mind how bulky it is."

His observatory is so big, with so many rooms, and plenty of room for it. When the time comes, he will install more tungsten wires to light up the entire palace.

It can be brightly lit without a trace of lamp oil. (End of chapter)
