Chapter 1220 Add More Fire

Zhao Shu lowered his eyes and looked at the hem of her skirt as she slowly walked away from the corner of his eye.

What can he do.

Nothing can be done.

Zhao Yuanjing read several folds, handed two of them to him, and said, "Uncle Emperor, these are the folds sent by Northwest Kuai Ma. It seems that the situation in Northern Qi is not very stable."

Zhao Shu had been away from Beijing for a month. He didn't know many things about the Military Aircraft Department and didn't have time to deal with them.

They all came to Zhao Yuanjing.

Hearing this, he immediately calmed down and took the fold to read.

Judging from the contents of the excerpt, it seems that Northern Qi was also in crisis.

Zhao Yuanjing said: "After the queen talked with Yao Shuibi last time, I asked people from Dongchang to go to Northern Qi to investigate. There were several people who fit the characteristics of the young prince. Finally, information came from three people. Which one they are, we need to further investigate. Investigate.”

Zhao Shu finished reading the excerpt, pondered for a moment, and said: "The current situation in Northern Qi is unstable, which is actually good for us. On the one hand, Northern Qi can no longer cause chaos in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and on the other hand, it cannot spare any effort to invade the Great Zhou Dynasty. border."

"What the emperor said makes sense, but at the same time, this is also an opportunity for us." Zhao Yuanjing coughed a few times, and then continued after a moment, "The people of the Northern Qi Dynasty are strong and the soldiers and horses are powerful. They have been a hidden danger to the Zhou Dynasty for many years. If it weren't for The little emperor has been in charge for many years, and I'm afraid the consequences are unimaginable."

"What are your thoughts, Your Majesty?" Zhao Shu asked.

"I just thought it would be better to add fuel to the fire and make the civil strife in Northern Qi even more chaotic."

Zhao Shu raised his eyebrows: "Use this young prince?"

"That's right."

There are ready-made candidates, so why not use them?

The uncle and nephew looked at each other and smiled, seeming to have restored the tacit understanding they had when they were in the East Palace to jointly defeat the Duke's Mansion.

Zhao Shu said: "Leave this matter to me. Over the years, I have learned more about Northern Qi than anyone else. But I have just come back, and the Ministry of War and the Military Aircraft Department still have many things to deal with. Your Majesty, please Wait for me for a few days. In addition, the first batch of artillery pieces from the arsenal, fifty units in total, are almost ready for sale."

"This is a big deal. Just sell it to Beiqi." Zhao Yuanjing was very happy, "Isn't Beiqi in chaos? How about giving them some weapons to make them fight more lively."

Zhao Shu hesitated for a moment and said: "Although these fifty rounds of artillery are basically completed, the final acceptance still needs to be seen by the Queen."

After all, these improved artillery and firearms originally came from Yun Dai's ideas and suggestions.

Only when it passes her inspection can it be considered a real production success.

Zhao Yuanjing glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said: "It's okay to let the queen take a look. But the queen is tired recently, so let her rest for two days before going."

"I understand."

Zhao Shu didn't say anything more, but he felt that the queen would probably become more tired day by day in the coming days. There is no rest.

If you want to go for inspection, it is better to go earlier.

The monarch and his ministers discussed state affairs for a while, and several elders came to see them.

Zhao Shu was thinking about what happened at the Military Aircraft Department, so he got up and left.

After Zhao Yuanjing was free, he thought about what the little emperor uncle said about inspecting firearms, so he asked Liu Dequan to send a message to Fengyi Palace, saying that it was up to her to decide this matter.

If you feel uncomfortable, don't force it.

Not in a hurry.

It happened that Zhou Yizhi came to visit her, and when the little eunuch replied, Yun Dai did not avoid her. She smiled and said: "Arsenal? Although the name is weird, it does match your style."

Zhou Yizhi has been living in Ci'an Palace, but since Jiang Ran arrived, she spends less time with the Queen Mother.

Now that Jiang Ran was driven away, the Empress Dowager was extremely angry, and she was also angry with Zhou Yizhi.

Zhou Yizhi was not interested in giving Yun Dai a cold look, so she often came to Yun Dai's place.

When she heard the young eunuch mention the arsenal, as a general and a tiger girl, she felt a little itchy and wanted to see it.
