Chapter 770: Luoyang Storm (Part 2)

The profession of eunuch has also produced famous people, such as Cai Lun, who improved the papermaking technique, allowing paper, which was originally only used by the upper class, to gradually enter the homes of ordinary people.

Paper was invented before Cai Lun, but the manufacturing process of paper at that time was very complicated, and it was more expensive than bamboo slips. It was really expensive at that time. After Cai Lun's improvement, paper was expensive, and it was monopolized by aristocratic families. Just based on this point, Cai Lun is enough to be famous through the ages.

In the era when Confucianism was in power, it was very difficult to make progress in science and technology. Haven't you seen that there has been little progress in this area for more than two thousand years in history?

There is also Zheng He. Zheng He's voyages to the West represent China's exploration of the ocean in history. To put it bluntly, if there were no obstructions from the Confucian group, how could the late Ming Dynasty be so unbearable.

It is this group of people who read sages' books every day and claim to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but they are not as good as some eunuchs, such as Wang Chengen and Gao Lishi, one of the most famous figures in Confucianism. The water is too cold.

Shen Fei can be said to have given these eunuchs very generous arrangements, which is absolutely unique in this era. Of course, Shen Fei also let these eunuchs do some things, such as improving some seeds when planting royal fields, and the newspaper industry is also prepared to be gradually handed over to them for processing.

It must be said that there are still many talents among the eunuchs in the palace, some of whom are no worse than those so-called scholars, and they are not as arrogant as those scholars, and they are very useful. No wonder many people in feudal society would reuse eunuchs. Without descendants, they would not worry about them plotting to usurp the throne.

If it were not for the fact that castration was too inhumane, Shen Fei would not want to end the profession of eunuchs. In fact, strictly speaking, eunuchs, that is, eunuchs, were not eunuchs at the beginning. The so-called eunuchs refer to people who serve the emperor and the royal family.

And castration was mainly used to punish slaves and captives at the beginning. As a result, no one knows who did it, and slowly all the eunuchs became eunuchs.

"Let's go, it's almost time to eat. Why don't you come over? I'll treat you today."

Although the palace has an imperial chef, it's rare for Shuanglong and Ba Fenghan to come. In addition, Shen Fei has been busy since entering Luoyang and hasn't visited Luoyang much, so he took this opportunity to take the three of them to Dong's Restaurant.

"Brother Shen, is this okay?" Looking at Shen Fei who quietly left the palace to join him, Xu Ziling looked around and then spoke.

"Don't worry, Ziling, don't you still trust my strength, not to mention that there are three of you here." As soon as Xu Ziling finished speaking, Shen Fei guessed his thoughts. He looked around to see if there were any hidden guards on one side.

With Shen Fei's current status, every move is undoubtedly under great attention. In this case, every time he goes out, he naturally needs a lot of guards. This is probably the price of being a big shot.

Just like Stark, every time he goes out, he must be accompanied by a lot of bodyguards. Although no one may attack him, this kind of thing is always a safe bet.

As an emperor, you have to be more strict in this regard. It is impossible to go out alone and wander around. Even if you don't care, the people below will definitely care. Didn't you see that after Li Yuan became the emperor, he deliberately used the tunnel to go out to visit brothels.

"To be honest, if it weren't for the people of the world, I really don't want this emperor. The emperor seems to have power over the world, but in fact it is very difficult for a person to leave the palace. The so-called palace is not the emperor's prison."

Speaking of this, Shen Fei sighed with emotion. This is his profound experience during this period of time. This is still under the condition of extreme decentralization. If it is the kind of person who is greedy for power, it will only be busier.

"Your Highness, King Tang, this is just you saying it. If it were someone else, I would definitely think he was pretending." This experience made Ba Fenghan's attitude towards Shen Fei much better.

"So for my future free and easy life, some things can only be changed now."

"I didn't expect that being an emperor would have so many restrictions and troubles. I definitely can't stand such a life."

This time, what he saw and heard in the palace had the greatest impact on Kou Zhong. If he had a little idea of ​​competing for supremacy in the world and whether there would be a king, prince, general or minister, now it has basically disappeared.

In the previous trip to the palace, Shen Fei roughly talked about some of the rules in the palace, such as the three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines, as well as the harem fights, as well as the restrictions on eating, attending court, and wanting to leave the palace.

With Kou Zhong's personality, if he lives in such a life for a week, he will probably scream that he can't stand it. Some things heard and seen with his own eyes are completely two concepts. Of course, this is just him. If it were someone else, he might not think so. After all, although he lost some things, he gained more.

"To borrow the words that Master Feng just said, this is what you, Master Zhong, said. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be pretending."

Then the four of them couldn't help but laugh. Shuanglong, Ba Fenghan and the other two immediately became casual. Although the three of them looked fine before, they were actually a little restrained. After all, Shen Fei's identity was the King of Tang. No one could guarantee that Shen Fei, who became the King of Tang, would still be the same as before.

"I didn't expect that you would fight with Li Mi again."

In a private room on the second floor of the Dong Family Restaurant, while eating, Kou Zhong briefly described the general situation after they left the Pegasus Ranch.

"It's a pity that Wang Bodang, that bastard, was not killed."

Speaking of Wang Bodang, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling immediately had murderous intent on their faces. Although Shen Fei changed the fate of many people and even killed Xiang Yushan in advance, Su Su still encountered the original story. After all, she was just a maid, and neither Zhai Rang nor Li Mi cared about her at all.

Even if Zhai Jiao and Su Su had a good relationship, it was impossible for her to quarrel with her father Zhai Rang because of Su Su in this situation. After all, this kind of thing is normal in this world.

Don't say it's a maid, even a concubine can be given away at will in this era. Many of the famous literary masters and poets in history have done such things.

"Li Mi is about to attack Luoyang. If you want revenge, here's your chance."

"Li Mi is going to attack Luoyang now. Is he crazy and looking for death?"

When Kou Zhong heard Shen Fei talking about Li Mi's attack on Luoyang, he was stunned. Although Kou Zhong was born a gangster, he had a very high talent in military affairs. Just look at the battle of the young marshal's army in the original book, and you can know that there is a kind of talent that is innate.

Looking at the original book, Kou Zhong helped Wang Shichong defeat Li Mi, and helped Dou Jiande defeat the Li family. Although he lost to Li Shimin in the end, it was not a crime of war, but the difference in strength between the two sides was too big, and he had a pig teammate.

"What Li Mi should do most now is to rest. With Luoyang's strength, he has no chance at all." Kou Zhong then talked about Li Mi's situation. Looking at his eloquent appearance, you can know that he has put a lot of effort in this regard.

"What if the Buddhists help him." Shen Fei said with a smile.

"Buddhists, how can they help Li Mi?" Kou Zhong was stunned again.

"It's very simple, because in their eyes, I threaten the survival of the entire Buddhist sect. Not to mention just helping Li Mi, even if they cooperate with the Demon Sect, as long as they can kill me, it's normal." Shen Fei said, his eyes suddenly turned to Xu Ziling, and just when he was about to say something, his eyes turned to the door again.

"Your Highness the Tang King, Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi of the Song Clan ask for an audience." At the same time, a man and a woman, one steady and one pleasant, sounded outside.

"Come in."

"Miss Song, long time no see."

Looking at Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi who came in, Kou Zhong immediately waved to Song Yuzhi with a playful smile. After seeing Kou Zhong, Song Yuzhi couldn't help but snorted coldly, and it seemed that she had a bad impression of Kou Zhong.

"Hello, Your Highness the Tang King." Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi ignored Kou Zhong, but apologized to Shen Fei at the same time. In front of him, the Tang King, even Song Yuzhi needed to abide by some rules.

"Mr. Song, Miss Song." Xu Ziling greeted the two of them solemnly. He was not as playful as Kou Zhong.

"Sit down, together."

"I'll do it. Miss Song, please. Waiter, serve a few more dishes." Kou Zhong immediately pulled out the stool beside him and motioned Song Yuzhi to sit next to him. Unfortunately, Song Yuzhi ignored him and sat directly next to Xu Ziling.

After seeing this scene, Song Shidao couldn't help but frown slightly. Because of his love for the house, Song Shidao was very good to Shuanglong, but now Kou Zhong's actions and his sister's actions made Song Shidao have a very bad premonition in his heart.

"Who is this?" Putting aside the bad premonition in his heart for the time being, Song Shidao looked at Ba Fenghan and asked directly.

"This is Ba Fenghan." Xu Ziling immediately introduced Ba Fenghan's identity, and also introduced Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi's identities to Ba Fenghan.

After the introduction, Song Yuzhi immediately asked Xu Ziling beside him with a curious look: "I didn't expect that you really killed Ren Shaoming and survived Qu Ao's pursuit. How did you do it?"

"Of course, it depends on strength." Before Xu Ziling spoke, Kou Zhong immediately said: "Ren Shaoming is nothing. Even if it was Qu Ao, if he hadn't escaped quickly, they could have been reunited as father and son."

Kou Zhong's words startled Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi, and then Song Yuzhi immediately looked at Xu Ziling beside him with an inquiring look.

"Mr. Zhong is right." Xu Ziling nodded immediately and gave a brief account of the situation.

"I didn't expect that you have grown to this point. If Jun'er knew, she would be very happy." After listening to Xu Ziling's words, Song Shidao's eyes flashed with a trace of comfort and regret.

Song Shidao is undoubtedly a very infatuated person. After hearing the news of Fu Jun'er's death, he has been blaming himself. If he had taken action at that time, he might have saved Fu Jun'er.

If Fu Jun'er was from the Central Plains, Song Shidao would definitely not hesitate, but who made her a Korean.

When Fu Jun'er was mentioned, Kou Zhong's playful smile immediately subsided. Fu Jun'er was the person Shuanglong respected the most and the first person to treat them well.

"Sorry, Your Highness." Song Shidao quickly regained his composure and apologized to Shen Fei. After all, he had the highest status here.

"It doesn't matter. Speaking of which, my two little brothers are also thanks to your care."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were able to assassinate Ren Shaoming, and the Song clan definitely played a significant role in it, otherwise they would not have been able to assassinate Ren Shaoming. It was not because of their lack of strength, but because of their lack of intelligence.

As the leader of the Iron Cavalry Society, Ren Shaoming undoubtedly had a large number of guards around him. In this case, let alone Shuanglong, even Zhu Yuyan might not be able to kill him.

The Song clan had failed to assassinate Ren Shaoming many times.

"Your Highness, I don't know who you are?" Song Shidao immediately asked curiously about the relationship between Shen Fei, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

"Brother Shen is our master." Xu Ziling immediately said.

"I just taught you some things, not a master. Strictly speaking, we are brothers. The two of them are now disciples of the Taoist Tianzong."

"Congratulations."

Then the group had a meal and chatted. Kou Zhong teased Song Yuzhi from time to time, which made Song Shidao sigh deeply in his heart. He swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Interesting, there are guests." After finishing his meal, Shen Fei suddenly laughed when he left Dong's Restaurant and came to the middle of a stone bridge.

When his smile just appeared, four black shadows suddenly jumped out of the river under the bridge. The four people were dressed in black water jackets and holding crossbows in their hands. After jumping out of the water, they immediately shot crossbow arrows at Shen Fei, then threw the crossbow arrows, drew their short swords, and rushed towards Shen Fei in the middle of the bridge.

Ding Ding.

Before Shen Fei could make a move, Kou Zhong and Ba Fenghan, one sword and one knife, crossed the sky, and each of them shot down the crossbow arrows, and the swords and knives met the black-clothed men who rushed over.

"Ah, there are assassins."

The sudden change made the people in the center of the stone bridge terrified. In panic, they wanted to escape. Two of them, dressed as rich young masters, rushed towards Shen Fei in panic. After approaching Shen Fei, their eyes turned cold at the same time. A short sword appeared in their empty right hands and stabbed Shen Fei's chest and back respectively.

But the next moment, the two people's faces changed immediately, because they suddenly found that they could not control their bodies and fell to the sides of the bridge involuntarily.

Xu Ziling stepped on the Bagua step, waved his hands, and activated the Tai Chi aura, throwing all the assassins in the center of the stone bridge away. At this time, it can be found that there is no ordinary person on the whole stone bridge, all of them are assassins.

"I can seize this opportunity. It seems that many people are watching me. It seems that I will soon enjoy the treatment of Ying Zheng."

It is rare for Shen Fei to walk out of the palace with only three people around him. For those assassins, even if they suspect that there is something wrong, they will not miss this golden opportunity.

"Idiot, hiding in the water and not coming out, now it's good, you don't have to come out."

Seeing Kou Zhong's six cold tactics freezing the river surface under the stone bridge for dozens of meters, Shen Fei couldn't help laughing. Of course, there were not only the four people in the river, but also more people and masters hiding under the water, preparing to find an opportunity to sneak attack, but they were destroyed by Kou Zhong's casual knife.

Bang.

After discovering that the water surface was frozen, the master under the river couldn't help but break the ice and rushed out.
