Chapter 491 Duke Xin also wants to attend the lecture The courtiers who followed him to the tidal flat also looked confused. When they arrived at the place, three large boxes were already placed in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. Under the refraction of the sun, these boxes whose covers had been opened cast a golden light inside. An officer of the advance army with a wounded left arm knelt on one knee in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Your Majesty, the advance army has lived up to your Majesty's expectations and has captured Sado Island for your Majesty." Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that after the Ming Dynasty fully launched a war against Japan, it would take a bloody battle to conquer Sado Island. Unexpectedly, Hu Yunqiang led a mere 600 soldiers to capture this gold mountain that had been mined for hundreds of years. He was immediately overjoyed and helped the kneeling officer. Then he said to the remaining advance soldiers: "Hahaha, Sado Island has surrendered. You all are great contributors. You will all be safe soon." Facing such courtesy from Zhu Yuanzhang, the middle-aged officer felt a little guilty.
"Your Majesty, before General Hu Yunqiang led us to capture Sado Island, the Japanese slaves on the island had already returned the gold mined in the previous quarter to the Japanese mainland, so we only captured more than 5,000 taels..." "Money is a small matter, but being able to capture Sado Island is already a great achievement." Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted the middle-aged officer's self-blame and asked with concern: "Is the injury on Aiqing's arm serious?" Only high-ranking officials could hear the word "love", which made the middle-aged officer feel as if he had been given a shot of blood. His face was red and he said: "Your Majesty, this is just a minor injury. I can still return to Sado Island to conquer the Japanese slaves for your Majesty." "The injury to your arm should not be taken lightly. We will ask the imperial doctor to take a look at it later." Zhu Yuanzhang liked this kind of warrior who was loyal to the country, so he immediately sent someone to find the imperial doctor. When the middle-aged officer was so excited that he couldn't help himself because of his kindness. Zhu Yuanzhang slowly asked about the situation on Zuodu Island: "What were the casualties when Aiqing captured Zuodu Island?" Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, the middle-aged officer involuntarily raised the corners of his mouth. He held his head high and smiled and said: "Your Majesty, with a weapon like the Langzhen to restrain the Japanese slaves, under the majestic formation, those little Japanese slaves are no match for our great tomorrow's soldiers." "Although the number of Japanese slaves was twice that of our army, we annihilated nearly half of the Japanese slave warriors without hurting anyone." "The remaining Japanese slaves, including the leader who guards Sado Island, have become prisoners of my Ming Dynasty." As soon as these words came out, the courtiers who had become accustomed to zero casualties showed expressions of taking it for granted. However, Tang He, who had just arrived at the beach, had disbelief written all over his confused face. He fought with Japanese slaves many times on the southeast coast and knew that the Japanese swords were unstoppable. How come in just half a year, the situation has changed drastically. The arrogant Japanese sword has been completely restrained by the Ming Dynasty's weapons. Even if they can hit more with less, no one is injured.
Tang He felt that he had only made one trip to Nanyang, and was familiar with the Ming Dynasty. Suddenly it became something he couldn't understand. Tang He couldn't bear his curiosity, so he asked Zhu Biao in a low voice: "Your Highness, what kind of magical weapon is the wolf trap that the officer mentioned?" "Who made it? The Japanese invaders were completely defenseless against it." When Zhu Biao heard this, he planned to give Tang He a tutoring lesson. However, Zhu Ping answered first in a show-off tone: "That weapon, Langzhen, was made by my husband." "As for why he was able to restrain the Japanese slaves, the answer is very simple." Speaking of this, Zhu Xi deliberately let it slip. Tang He, on the other hand, said with a look of disbelief: "Your Highness King Qin, is the gentleman you are talking about the Lin Che who developed Lin Che's expelling liquid and white sugar?" Zhu Xi heard a series of surprised questions from Tang He. He was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface he curled his lips and asked, "Mr. Xin Guo, what do you think?" Tang Henai was a very thoughtful person, and he understood Zhu Xiang's meaning instantly. Then his expression became quite wonderful in an instant. Tang He originally thought that Lin Che only relied on her pharmaceutical and craftsmanship skills to gain Zhu Yuanzhang's favor. Unexpectedly, this person is also familiar with the manufacture of weapons. In one fell swoop, he helped the Ming Dynasty solve the Japanese slave problem that had troubled the court for many years. This alone shows that Lin Che is no longer an ordinary talent. Tang He was shocked, and also changed his mind about exposing Lin Che's true face. He also made up his mind that even if this person really had evil intentions, he would try his best to help him save his life. Maybe, this person will create something that will benefit Ming in the future. And when Tang He's thoughts were changing. Zhu Xi, who wanted to praise his husband in a negative way, saw the look of shock and admiration on Tang He's face. He said with a dissatisfied smile: "Because my husband is omnipotent, he not only developed weapons to restrain Japanese slaves." "Pai divination calculated that the Japanese country has two large mines of gold, mountains and silver islands, which can be mined for hundreds of years." Tang He had just raised Lin Che's evaluation to a higher level. At this moment, when he heard that the Ming Dynasty was sending troops to the Japanese country, it turned out to be this person again. He was a little unable to accept it and asked: "Your Highness, King Qin, isn't the method of divination a trick used by folk magicians to deceive people?" "How could your Majesty use force against the Japanese country just because of that man's one-sided words? If..." At this point, Tang He suddenly couldn't speak anymore. Because as the sun rose, the light refracted from the three boxes of gold just reflected on his face.
Under such circumstances, if you continue to forcefully say that Lin Che is a magic stick, I am afraid that the command will attract the ridicule of others. Tang He is not the kind of person who ignores the facts for the sake of face. He immediately changed his tone and asked: "Your Highness, King Qin, when you go to listen to Mr. Lin's lecture again, can you take me with you? I have some questions that I want to ask him for." In Tang He's view, the medicine developed by Lin Che, as well as white sugar, fertilizer, and wolfberry. Even the efficacy and effect are far beyond ordinary things. But it is still within the category of ordinary capable people. But this person is actually proficient in divination, a method that is rare in the world. Although he was in the Ming Dynasty, he could figure out where in the Japanese country there were gold and silver deposits. This is beyond the means of ordinary people and can be called an immortal. Tang He, who believed deeply in Buddhism, doubted whether Lin Che was the reincarnation of a certain god or Buddha, so he wanted to discuss Buddhism with him. Zhu Xi didn't know what Lin Che was thinking, otherwise he would definitely criticize her foolish ideas. He shook his head and said, "Mr. Xin Guo, if you want to listen to Mr. Lin's lecture, you need to seek my father's opinion." "And asking for advice may not be that easy. After all, several ministers in the DPRK still have a lot of questions waiting for me to tell them." "You want to attend the class, but I'm afraid you have to wait until father arranges the time." “But Duke Xin’s hard work has yielded great results, I believe my father will definitely allow it!” "Just wait!"
