Chapter 764: Growing in the Algae

The long desk was painted with a bright lacquer surface, and smoke was curling up. Liang Qu ground the ink. Xu Wenzhu took up the pen. From cause to effect, from beginning to end, he wrote two full pages. The date was attached to the end of the letter. Su Guishan, Yang Dongxiong, Wei Lin, Xu Yuelong and other senior officials of the river and lake station stamped their red seals one by one, and another full page of vermilion. Blow dry the ink. Xu Wenzhu rolled up the letter, stuffed it into a long metal tube, pasted red chicken feathers on it, and sealed the two ends with fire seals, and looked around. "Who to send?" "A Shui, you go!" Su Guishan did not hesitate. "Me?" Liang Qu was not very happy. Running errands to deliver a letter, he would definitely get a reward after the fact, but it would not be too much. However, the time wasted was at least two to three months, which was undoubtedly a waste of his efforts. "Refinement of the Great Pill takes a lot of time, so the less extra cost, the better. You have a second-grade dragon blood horse, so the round trip will take less than a month, including the rest time. You are also the first contact person of Haifangzhu, and you know many details better than us. It is convenient for you to explain when someone asks. And since you are going to the imperial capital, it is a good opportunity to take your dragon girl baby with you." "Eying?" "Listen to me, it will benefit you." Su Guishan said concisely. Liang Qu's eyes flickered. At the end of October, the two confirmed their relationship. Su Guishan seemed to have written a special letter. After three months, it must have reached the imperial capital. At this point, it is not easy to refuse. It happened that someone acted as a "fast horse". Xu Yuelong and others stuffed all the letters and memorials to be dealt with recently into the wooden box and asked Liang Qu to take it. "What a shame." Xu Yuelong patted Liang Qu on the shoulder, "Ashui, you won't be able to attend my promotion banquet." "No problem, in two years, Brother Xu will eat from me." "Good! Ambitious!" Xu Yuelong gently pushed his back, "Go, Liang Hengwei, go home and get your horses, no need to come back to tell us, follow the big rivers and go all the way north! Bring back a demon king friend for Dashun!" "As you command!" Saying goodbye to his colleagues, Liang Qu immediately took the metal long tube and wooden box and went home. "Xinglai, prepare the horses! Long Yao, Long Li, pack my luggage, two sets! E Ying! I'm going on a long journey!" No one asked what was going on. Within a quarter of an hour. Long Yao tied the knot. Chi Shan carried two bags, spewing hot mist from his mouth and nose, and his front hooves stepped on the bluestone. Liang Qu took Long E Ying's hand and pulled her to sit sideways in front of him. Da Qing wrapped it up. "Let's go!" Boom! Chi Shan kicked his hind legs hard, smashing two big holes, and two or three leaped out of Yixing Town and swept across the top of Pingyang Prefecture. The villagers and officials all looked up. The wind was howling. The horse was fluttering, just like an eagle with its wings spread out soaring in the sky. When they reached a deserted place, in the dense forest, the river overflowed, and the two people and the horse were all swept into the water. Half running and half striding. Liang Qu calculated the course that the dragon blood horse should take. In the middle of February, the weather was cold and the imperial capital was snowing heavily. The branches on the streets were covered with icicles, and the eaves were covered with a thick layer of snow. The black horse covered with wind and snow turned pure white, and the red horse stepped on the ripples, stepped on the clear waves of the pool, and broke into the imperial capital. "Good endurance!" Liang Qu patted Chishan's neck, and his mouth and nose were full of white mist. On weekdays, he rode back and forth between Chishan's towns, several miles and dozens of miles, and arrived in the blink of an eye. The performance of Chishan's horse was not fully utilized. The section from Cangzhou to the imperial capital did not take the waterway, and it was almost the same as flying low over the ground. It should be said that it is worthy of being a hoofed animal. Chishan shook his head and snorted twice. Crash! Daqing shook. Long Eying went to Jishuitan to clean up the house first. Liang Qu took off Daqing and put her in a snow-proof coat. Then, according to the procedure, she was led into the palace by the Tianyu Guard. "Sir Liang, His Majesty is busy. You have been running all the way. Take a break for a while, drink some hot tea and take a breath." In the side hall, the eunuch served tea. "But what happened?" Liang Qu held up the teacup and looked up to see the swaying figures in the hall with the help of the reflection of the ground. He came with the feather book and entered the imperial capital to explain the situation. He didn't see the Holy Emperor in the first place, but had to stay in the side hall to wait? "It's not something that can't be said. There was a lot of uproar in the imperial capital. Beiting went south, and there was a big fight in Liujinhai. It is said that two treasure houses were damaged, and a lot of granaries were burned. A lot of good things were lost." "Beiting went south?" Liang Qu pondered. There were signs when Harukhan came to the capital last year. It is estimated that he has not reached the limit of his patience. His attempts were frustrated and he gave up further actions, but what is coming will come. "I wonder how the eldest brother is doing—· Before I could worry, another team of eunuchs hurried over, craning their necks. "Lord Liang, Lord Liang?" Liang Qu waved his hand: "Here!" "Lord Liang, please follow me into the hall!" Qinzheng Hall. Several officials and university scholars gathered here to discuss important matters. Liang Qu tidied his appearance, stepped to the center and handed over the feather book. The eunuch held the metal rod horizontally, confirmed with the Holy Emperor that the two ends were sealed with wax, opened it on the spot, and displayed it in front of the long steps. Occasionally, a minister cast a glance, wondering what happened in Pingyang Prefecture. "Luan Dian Feng Dao Dan? Is there any in the warehouse? "A eunuch stepped forward. "Your Majesty, there are no existing elixirs in the warehouse. There are two copies of the main medicine Yin Yang Orchid Grass, one of which is hidden in Nanzhili. I don't know if anyone has exchanged it today. As for the remaining major medicines, Ice Silkworm and Yang Fire Flower, there are one and two copies each in the Beijing warehouse. The number of auxiliary medicines is complete, so it is not difficult to refine one. If there are more, I'm afraid we'll have to gather them together." "Let the alchemy room refine it first! Immediately send a message to Nanzhili. There is no need to send it to the imperial capital. The finished products should be sent to Pingyang Prefecture together. It must be fast! It must be confidential!" "Yes!" OK! With just this sentence, Liang Qu knew the tone of the matter was set. "Your Majesty! Could you tell me what requires such an elixir? "Everyone in the room was well-informed, and they were all familiar with the name of the elixir. The Holy Emperor nodded. The chief eunuch passed the letter to the official in question. They circulated it among each other. The frowns on everyone's faces gradually relaxed. The situation in the southern border was getting serious, and there was a big fire in the northern court. Just when they were worried, Jianghuai in the middle jumped out with a good thing, which could even help Dashun reach out to the sea and stir it up.

"Liang Heng, the big monster swallowed the monster king. Is there really a 40% chance of success in such an adventure? Don't listen to the big monster's one-sided words!" "Don't worry, Su Xueshi. The Octopus King is not a brave and aggressive person. Most of his skills are used to save his life. Hai Fangzhu is just the opposite. Even if the Octopus King reproduces, he will have to separate a tentacle to monitor his four wives Hai Yun. He will become weaker when using "Dian Yin Dao Yang". His strength is less than 70%. Hai Fangzhu took the big pill to replenish his body. One is stronger than the other. In addition, I asked the white ape to keep a back-up plan. There is indeed a great hope of success." The officials in the field thought secretly. They are not at a high level and have too little information. The gap between the big monster and the monster king can only be analyzed based on the reaction of the Holy Emperor and the overwhelming support of the river. He is really capable. The benefits are big enough and the risks are small enough. With the establishment of a permanent maritime trade port, the relationship between land and water will be closer in the future, like an umbilical cord. The risk is not whether Haifangzhu succeeds or not, but even if he fails, Dashun will not get into trouble. If he sends someone, he will definitely not be able to explain it clearly. Just giving a pill is naturally something that Haifangzhu has hidden in advance, or found by other means, or even grown in the algae, or refined by the Ghost Mother Cult. In short, it has nothing to do with Dashun. "The long dragon crossed the river, and Liang Hengwei is worthy of his reputation. There are fires at the north and south ends, and Jianghuai in the middle is not only safe and stable, but if it succeeds, it can also pump water to put out the fire, which is incredible." "All of this is because of your majesty's appointment in the past. Without your majesty, there would be no minister today." "Add two more." The Holy Emperor patted the armrest. Liang Qu bowed and listened. "First, the trading ports must levy taxes and settle in silver, and allow our people to check the accounts." "Second, within fifty years, if there is any unusual movement by the Jianghuai Daze Dragon or the Ghost Mother Cult, he must make unconditional moves three times."
