"Is that true?"
After Meng Tian returned to the paper mill from the weapons factory, she told Ying Zheng everything she had seen and heard.
When he heard that Jian Heng had developed such a powerful weapon, Ying Zheng was also very surprised.
For Ying Zheng, the real reason why people were afraid of the Xiongnu was their strong vitality. They were like wild grass, which could not be burned by wildfire and could grow with the spring breeze. As long as they were not completely exterminated, they would come back again after a while.
With these heavy crossbows, although it could not be said that they could completely expel the Xiongnu, it could also reduce the casualties of the soldiers.
"Jian Heng, ah, Jian Heng, how many more things do you have that surprise zhen?”
"Your Majesty, Village Chief Jian Heng has said several times that he wants to present the things he invented to Your Majesty. It can be seen that he truly respects Your Majesty. Your Majesty, why don't you reveal your identity to Village Chief Jian Heng tonight?。。”
After hearing Li Si's suggestion, Ying Zheng frowned. Ever since Jian Heng had repeatedly said that he would offer the things in the village to him, Brother Zheng was naturally happy in his heart. But at the same time, he was also very hesitant.
"Not for now."
Ever since Lao Ai's coup, Brother Zheng's power had grown stronger and stronger day by day. After unifying the six dynasties, he had become the supreme ruler of the world.
Everyone was respectful when they saw him. There were very few people who could stand on equal terms and chat with him.
Therefore, in the past few years, Brother Zheng had also felt a little lonely in his heart.
Now that Jian Heng, who didn't know his identity, had finally appeared, every time he heard Jian Heng praise him, Brother Zheng also had some other feelings in his heart when he felt that it was funny.
Moreover, once he revealed his identity, there were some things that Jian Heng couldn't say.
For example, the Qin State's national fate that was mentioned yesterday, if Jian Heng knew his identity from the start, would he still dare to boast that the Qin State's national fate still had more than ten years?
Brother Zheng thought that he wouldn't dare to do it even if he had three guts.
"The three over there, stop chatting and get to work. We still have a lot of unfinished tasks today.”
Just as Brother Zheng was deep in thought, the foreman saw that these three people were slacking off and quickly reminded them.
The three people who were awakened quickly continued to work.
After six hours of work, Ying Zheng and the others returned to Jian Heng's house.
"Oh, you're back. The food is ready. Wash your hands and eat quickly.”
Looking at the three people's tired faces, Jian Heng knew that the three of them were indeed tired today. Although the work in the paper mill was simple, the workload was huge. Moreover, it was rather boring.
The dishes on the table gave the three of them a lot of motivation. The three of them swept away their fatigue and quickly washed their hands. Then, they sat on the table and began to wolf down the food.
"Eat slowly, eat slowly. Also, look at the three of you.”
Hearing Jian Heng say so, the three people then slowed down slightly.
Jian Heng casually ate two mouthfuls of food and poured a bowl of wine for each of the three people.
In an instant, the entire room was filled with the fragrance of wine in addition to the fragrance of food. The fragrance of the wine was not strong, but a kind of fragrance. This fragrance seemed to have a hint of peach blossom fragrance.
"Come and have a sip. This is the Peach Blossom Wine secretly made by Peach Blossom Village. It's guaranteed to be better than the wine in the palace.”
Meng Tian, who was eating, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth. Although he did not like alcohol as much as his life, as a soldier, how could he not like alcohol?
Before, he could still tolerate it for a while without the mention of wine, but now that he smelled the fragrance of wine, how could he endure it anymore? He hurriedly picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
As for Ying Zheng and Li Si, they seemed to be more refined than Meng Tian because they were teased by Jian Heng earlier. They first picked up their wine bowls and took a look.
"It's so clear, but it has such a fragrance. What a good Peach Blossom Wine.”
After sighing, Brother Zheng and Li Si also downed the wine in their bowls.
The fragrant liquid slid across the tip of his tongue, passed through his throat, and entered his throat. It floated warmly in his abdomen, slowly drifted in his nose, and quietly entered his blood vessels.
"This wine is actually so delicious."
Ying Zheng sighed. As an emperor, he had drunk far too many so-called good wines, but compared to this jar of Peach Blossom Wine before him, those 'good wines' were no different from horse piss.
"Meng Shi, what's wrong?"
Just as the two of them were sighing, Jian Heng realized that Meng Tian did not express her opinion after drinking. Instead, he stood there in a daze.
"Good wine, good wine."
After a long while, Meng Tian finally came back to her senses and said,"
Actually, Meng Tian had wanted to think of a good word to describe the taste of this wine.
Unfortunately, although he was not uncultured, his talent was all in the art of war. He really could not think of any good words to describe the taste of this wine.
Seeing Meng Tian's silly look, Brother Zheng subconsciously laughed out loud. This was the first time he had seen Meng Tian like this.
"By the way, Village Chief Jian Heng, yesterday you said that you have a way to deal with the rumors of the Six Nations 'nobles.”
After drinking for a while, Brother Zheng finally remembered this serious matter. Last time, Jian Heng was just about to say it, but he was interrupted by Zhao Yun. This time, he had to ask clearly.
"This matter is actually very simple. Just treat it as a topic of conversation after drinking.”
Jian Heng did not think that Zhao Cheng actually still remembered this matter. Left and right, he was also bored. Jian Heng also did not suggest giving them a lesson.
"There are three ways to solve this problem. Which one do you want to hear?”
"This is... Can you tell me all three?"
"You guys really care about political affairs. Alright, I'll tell you in detail. The worst plan is very simple. We can directly suppress them with violence. If anyone dares to spread rumors privately, we can directly behead them. This way, if we kill more people, naturally, no one will dare to spread rumors casually. However, there is a drawback to doing this, and that is that His Majesty might have a bad image among the people.”
The three of them nodded in agreement. What Jian Heng said was indeed a last resort. Previously, when they caught the people who spread the rumors, they secretly executed them because they had considered this point.
"So, although this method is effective, the consequences are also very serious. Therefore, I think the best way is to implement both the best and the middle plan together. It can completely crush the conspiracy of the six countries.”
