Recently, officials in Chang'an City have died continuously, and all the dead officials have been dug out of their livers.
So there were rumors that the devil king escaped from the wall and killed people, and for a while, the people in Chang'an City were panicked.
Zhou Hao received a bag early in the morning.
It was sent in by a disciple of Donghuaguan. According to the disciple, the person who gave the bag was a woman, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly with a veil.
Zhou Hao thought about it and really didn't know who it would be.
The women he knew might not have this habit of giving him things.
But he was very skilled and bold, and directly used a horizontal knife to lift the bag.
No poisonous smoke was sprayed out, and no hidden weapons were attacked.
There are several books in the bag, but there is no name on the book.
But when Zhou Hao opened it, he saw that there were some drawings of mechanisms, among which the wooden bird drawings of Shas were listed.
The production method is described in detail above.
Zhou Hao's heart moved, and he remembered Shas. Shas was imprisoned and wanted to be executed, but he didn't expect that he would hang himself in prison.
Now it seems that maybe Shas was not dead at all, he pretended to die and escaped.
These things are gifts given to Zhou Hao, and Zhou Hao thinks this reasoning is the most reasonable.
At this moment, Princess Taiping arrived.
Zhou Hao put away the book and welcomed Princess Taiping to his yard.
Qingyi followed the princess with two cold-faced women.
"Your Highness, why did you think of coming to me today?" Zhou Hao said with a smile.
Princess Taiping gave Zhou Hao a blank look and said, "You are so safe here and there are no outsiders, why don't you call me mother!"
"Uh...Mom!" Zhou Hao screamed a little reluctantly.
But he still shouted, and Princess Taiping smiled on her face.
Princess Taiping sighed and said, "I'm so angry these days, and a few more bastards have defected to the prince. My useless brother seems to be unable to withstand the pressure. He wants to pass the throne to the prince, Cheng'er, what do you think I should do? Cui Qing, the governor of Luozhou, is still waiting and watching. This cunning thing is difficult to impress him."
Zhou Hao said he was involved in her struggle with the prince, but sometimes he still helped her out.
It was also Zhou Hao who proposed to win over the governor of Luozhou. It cannot be achieved overnight, but it also requires mutual testing.
But now there seems to be no time.
Zhou Hao thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, you can open your talks with the prince, make a deal, enfeoff your fiefdom to Dunhuang, and then ask for two more officials - the governor of Shazhou and the governor of Shazhou! As long as he agrees, you will fully support him as the emperor."
The Jiedushi Gaozong period was present, but it became a disaster during the Xuanzong period.
The Jiedushi takes all the local military, government and finance power in his hands. This is the local emperor.
Princess Taiping frowned and said, "Why go to the sandbank? I heard that there are winds and sandstorms everywhere, the conditions are very difficult, and there are frequent attacks from Tubo. What is the use of such a harsh place?"
Zhou Hao laughed and said, "It would be great if Tubo attacks. It is just right for recruiting troops for this reason. Every time Tubo attacks, it is necessary to dispatch troops from Zhechong Prefectures in various places. The efficiency is too low. If there are a group of professional soldiers, wouldn't it be better to defend against Tubo!"
Princess Taiping suddenly said, "Yes, then there will be my real fiefdom!"
Zhou Hao nodded: "The prince is not stupid. He is only at ease in the border areas. He just lets you, the princess, help him resist foreign enemies."
Princess Taiping worried, "But the land there is not fertile, and I think there are not many taxes that can be collected, so how can we raise soldiers?"
The tax burden in the Tang Dynasty was generally mainly based on agricultural taxes, and there was not much commercial tax, so looking at the taxes in a place, it mainly depends on whether there can be farmed.
Zhou Hao: "There are often foreign merchants passing by there, which can increase the levy of commercial taxes. And at that time, I can find ways to find some food crops suitable for growing there."
Princess Taiping was stunned and said in surprise: "Overseas? Is it Japan?"
At this time, Japan had long applied to change its name to Japan, but people are still used to calling its original name
Zhou Hao shook his head: "Around 30,000 miles from the Tang Dynasty, there is a continent where there is a crop called corn, which can be used as grain, with a yield of up to 800 kilograms per mu."
With the current farming technology, it may not work, but Zhou Hao has Xiaoyu's huge database support, so it is not easy to teach ancient people to farm.
This is not the first time he went to the ancient Americas, he has experience.
It seems that Xiaoyu's body needs to be made this time. Xiaoyu is not an ordinary artificial intelligence.
She has life, and in theory she can practice...
Of course it's just a theory. Her soul is different from that of humans. Xiaoyu tried to practice, but failed.
However, Zhou Hao can let Xiaoyu's soul possess the puppet, so that the princess will have a super intelligent brain.
Oh my God, it’s so pitiful to think about it. He absolutely didn’t know that an opponent suddenly appeared that made him desperate.
But he doesn't have to be desperate now. Zhou Hao is not interested in rebelling now, so he might be able to do so in the future.
At present, the puppet Qingyi can be said to be just a simple intelligent program.
She could only execute the preset orders by Zhou Hao and the orders issued by Princess Taiping, and she did not have the ability to think for herself.
It is still OK to let Xiaoyu possess her. Even if Zhou Hao breaks through the vent of qi into the body, he can try an intelligent robot made by refining.
He has done it in the world of "Under the Power", which is not difficult.
Princess Taiping now believed Zhou Hao's words, but she frowned and said, "In this way, wouldn't I usually deal with the government affairs of the entire state?"
Zhou Hao was speechless, do you think the emperor was sitting there as a mascot?
He glanced at Qingyi who was standing next to him and said, "I will help you upgrade Qingyi at that time, and she will help you with government affairs in the future."
Princess Taiping was stunned: "Upgrade?"
Zhou Hao: "You can understand it as transforming a demon. In the future, she will no longer be a puppet who can only obey orders. After upgrading, she will have her own ideas and give you some advice."
Princess Taiping was unaware of the truth, and her purpose of coming here has been achieved.
Zhou Hao gave her a way of thinking, she would think about how to negotiate with the prince, and Princess Taiping was still very confident.
Zhou Hao was also confident because he knew that it was Li Longji who let go of the iron chains of the border vassal states.
Let the Jiedushi grow slowly until it starts to retaliate against the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, Li Longji is very confident now. Even if he knows that the princess is not at ease, he won’t mind.
Because he would feel that the princess who stayed away from the Chang'an political center would not have any threat to him at all.
Let Princess Taiping lead the troops to rebel, stop making trouble, she has no brains and courage.
After the talks, it was already dinner time.
Food was delivered in Donghuaguan’s kitchen.
"Your Highness, Princess, Lu Lingfeng, the young minister of Dali Temple, asked for a meeting!" A notice came from outside.
Princess Taiping said excitedly: "Hurry and please!"
Lu Lingfeng lowered his head and walked in and clasped his fists and said, "My minister Lu Lingfeng, I have seen His Royal Highness the Princess."
"Please get up quickly, Ji'er, sit down!"
Lu Lingfeng said helplessly: "Your Highness, Princess, I am here in Qingxu. There is a case that needs his help!"
Princess Taiping said with a disappointed look: "That's it! Then..."
Zhou Hao: "It's not bad for this time. We're just about to have a meal, but you didn't eat either? Have you eaten and chatted!"
