Chapter 408 Yes, but it cannot be used.
It's just a meeting with someone, which wastes some time. If the information this person has is really related to Dayun's country, it's worth a meeting.
The emperor thought for a moment, and asked someone to summon Wan Shuhua in.
Wan Shuhua held the letter in her hand, and the expression on her face was horrified.
"Your Majesty, I just found Zhou Bufan's letter in the tent. The content of the letter shocked me." They
are obviously father and daughter, but they cannot be called father and daughter. They are not as good as ordinary monarchs and ministers.
Wan Shuhua clenched the letter in her hand, then slowly let go, and handed the letter up with both hands.
Seeing that the fear on her face did not seem to be hypocritical, the emperor looked down at the little eunuch beside him.
The young eunuch nodded slightly, stepped forward and took the letter from Wan Shuhua's hand.
The emperor took the letter and opened it slowly.
His brows gradually wrinkled, and he slammed the letter in his hand on the table.
"Is what's written here true?"
Wan Shuhua lowered her head and shook it gently.
"Your Majesty, I don't know."
"I just found this letter under Zhou Bufan's pillow by chance. I don't know whether it's true or not. I can only hand this letter to your majesty to identify."
The emperor held the letter tightly in his hand.
The thin paper was crumpled into a ball by him.
The young eunuch didn't know what was written on the letter that could shock the emperor so much.
He tried to open his eyes and look at the paper, and vaguely saw some words of pulling on the paper.
It seemed that someone was pulling Zhou Bufan.
He looked at it for a long time, and only saw the word "
Zhang" in the signature, but could not see the rest. "I was wondering why the weapons of the soldiers on the battlefield were easily broken. It turned out that Concubine Zhang had long had ulterior motives."
"I trusted her so much and gave the task of forging weapons to her brother, and she treated me like this!"
Wan Shuhua hurriedly advised: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. The authenticity of this letter is still unknown. Don't get angry and hurt your body."
"If Your Majesty is really angry and does something bad, then Chen Chen will be guilty of a thousand deaths."
Wan Shuhua quietly glanced around and continued: "The letter said that Zhou Bufan should find a way to get Song Ci's method of making weapons."
"When Zhou Bufan comes back, we can arrest him directly and search him to see if he has Song Ci's weapon-making method. If so, it means that the letter is real, if not, it means that the letter is fake."
The handwriting of the letter is indeed that of Concubine Zhang, and the emperor can tell it at a glance.
Although the handwriting is similar, it may be a forgery, and many things in the letter do not conform to Concubine Zhang's habit of writing letters.
Wan Shuhua's plan has many loopholes.
Wan Shuhua is also well aware of this, but she is not afraid.
Your Majesty has always been willing to kill a wrong person rather than let him go.
For your Majesty, it doesn't matter whether this letter is real or fake.
Your Majesty is already very troubled by the rebels, and now Zhou Bufan has done something like this, so he will naturally not let Zhou Bufan go easily.
This time Zhou Bufan will definitely die.
As for Concubine Zhang...
due to your sensitive and suspicious character, no one dared to speak to you.
Concubine Zhang knew this very well, and she was quite bold in her actions. She did not cover up many things and could not withstand a close scrutiny.
With just a little investigation, all the things she did could be found out.
By then, no one would care whether the letter was true or false.
"Investigate! Investigate it carefully for me."
The emperor's voice was cold.
He could allow his beloved woman to act recklessly, but he would never allow her to shake his kingdom by relying on his favor.
"Your Majesty has been very hard these days. How about I find two people to massage your body, warm up a bottle of wine, and take a good rest."
The emperor nodded: "I remember that I brought two nobles with me this time. Let them come."
The two nobles had not been in the palace for long. They were young, beautiful, delicate and weak, and were deeply loved by him.
This time, Yu Cha led the expedition in person, and brought forty or fifty concubines from the harem alone, as well as ten Yu chefs. It was called a personal expedition, but it was just a change of place for fun.
Compared with the comfortable days of Emperor Dayun, Gan Fanren's life was not so leisurely.
In recent days, he has been looking for Tang Shi Songci more and more frequently. He
couldn't compete with the number of people, and those tactics had nowhere to be displayed, so he could only think of some strange and clever tricks.
These days he was busy with the affairs of the soldiers and discussing the deployment of troops with the generals. He was so busy every day that he couldn't even sleep well.
The weight he had just gained a few days ago has become thinner in the past few days.
Gan Fanren sat in the tent and looked at Song Ci: "Ah Ci, I heard from General Tang that you have developed a very powerful weapon. Can you let me see its power?"
Song Ci was a little hesitant: "Your Majesty, although this weapon is powerful and powerful, it is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you may hurt others or yourself."
"You shouldn't use this weapon unless it is absolutely necessary."
Gan Fanren gave him a lot of books a few days ago, and he found a lot of inspiration from the books.
After various attempts, he increased the power of ordinary gunpowder by more than ten times. A small ball can easily injure people.
He only tried it once and almost died in it.
If it weren't for General Tang's protection, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have the chance to stand here and would have been blown to pieces.
As the creator of gunpowder is so ruthless, if ordinary soldiers were to use it, it would be even more difficult to control.
Gan Fanren pondered for a moment.
"Can you tell me in detail how dangerous this thing is?"
"This thing is actually a kind of gunpowder, but compared to other gunpowders, it is more powerful and explodes faster."
"Normally I can use mechanical birds to scatter gunpowder powder from the air, and our soldiers can shoot flaming arrows from a distance. Once the arrows touch the powder, they will explode. The gunpowder has low power and a small explosion range, so it will not hurt our soldiers."
"But this gunpowder has a very large explosion range when it comes into contact with fire. During the march, the infantry and cavalry are in the front and the archers are in the back. Although the archers will not be exploded, other soldiers may be affected." "
It can be said that if you hurt the enemy, you will lose 800 of your own."
Gan Fanren asked again: "What if you wrap the gunpowder, ignite the fuse and then throw it out?"
"I'm afraid that won't work. The explosion range of gunpowder is quite large, and the gunpowder needs to be delivered in a short time. There are very few soldiers in our army who can deliver the gunpowder quickly and return safely."
"Once they enter the enemy's range, it is unknown whether these soldiers can return safely. They may be killed by the enemy before the gunpowder is delivered to the exact location."
In this way, gunpowder cannot be used easily.
Unless it is a desperate situation, it can only be sealed.
It is really worrying to have such a powerful weapon but not be able to use it.
