Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention - Chapter 179

  Chapter 179 Zhao Yun’s Indulgence

  Zhang Beichen and Zhao Yun ride together, this is not a rush at all, but a trip.

  The carriage was going all the way, and it was about to reach Xindu, and there were several mountains in front of it.

  Zhao Yun opened the curtain, pointed to the mountain to go to and said, “Do you remember? During the previous simulation, we were hiding in this mountain!”

   “I remember, I still remember that there is a waterfall and a pool of water in the mountain.” Zhang Beichen said.

   “That’s just right, Gu is going to take a bath and stay for half a day.” Zhao Yun said.

  Zhang Beichen has no objection. Zhao Yun is now at the ninth level, and he has also reached the seventh level. Climbing the mountain is easy.

  The car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and the two quickly came to the mountain.

  Zhang Beichen remembered that during the simulation, there were still many monsters and beasts in the mountain. Perhaps it was Zhao Yun who released her aura of the Nine Realms, and all the monsters and beasts hid and did not see them all the way.

   Soon, they came to the place in their memory, and sure enough, there was a waterfall and a pool of water here.

   “I want to take a bath, you stay outside.”

   This is familiar words, Zhang Beichen didn’t say much, just waited outside, and the two were still chatting at the same time.

   “If it wasn’t for simulating time and space at that time, Gu would definitely not agree with your ridiculous idea at that time!” Zhao Yun recalled that she, the majestic King Zhao, would flee to the wilderness with Zhang Beichen, which is incredible when she thinks about it.

   “Then if it happens again, how will the king choose?” Zhang Beichen asked.

  Zhao Yun thought for a moment, and said: “I should make the same choice, after all, Gu is not someone who is willing to admit defeat easily.”

   “That’s right, one more life experience, isn’t it a pleasure!” Zhang Beichen said in a relaxed tone.

   Zhao Yun suddenly felt a little sad: “That is a simulation after all. In the real world, you are King Zhao alone, and you are Prime Minister Qin. It is possible that Qin and Zhao will meet each other in the future. How should we get along then?”

  Zhang Beichen thought, if every queen was like Wei Yao, then this matter would be much easier to solve.

  But each queen has a different personality, which is also their charm. As for what to do in the future, we can only take one step at a time.

  He said: “No one can say for sure in the future. Just like simulating time and space, every simulation will have a different ending. We can’t predict the ending, we just need to live well now!”

  “Life is only a hundred years, if you think too much about everything, you will find out when you are old, and you will have countless regrets. Just live in the present!”

   “Live in the moment?” Zhao Yun savored Zhang Beichen’s words carefully.

   These days, she has been thinking about what kind of relationship she should have with Zhang Beichen and the queens of other countries.

  In the past, the seven countries were hostile to each other, and even if they formed an alliance, it was only for the benefit.

   But after many simulations, the animosity between the queens is not so great. It’s even possible to be a family in the simulation.

  Even if you return to reality, it is difficult to completely give up these memories and emotions.

  This matter made her very contradictory. If it was the past, the best way for her to benefit Zhao Guo was to force Zhang Beichen to stay, or to kill him directly.

  Even if she was cruel enough to kill her father, she would not be able to do such a thing.

   Now Zhang Beichen’s words awakened her, “Yes, in the future, whether seven countries will coexist, or a certain country will unify the world, or the revival of demons, the demise of the human race, etc. These are things in the future after all, no one can predict.”

  “Instead of worrying about the future, it is better to live the present and do what you want to avoid regret.”

  Zhao Yun has experienced the feeling of aging and regret too many times. Every time before the simulated offline, she would think, if she had made a different choice at the beginning, would the ending be different.

   Those regrets are all vivid in my mind.

   “To live, we must have no regrets!” Zhao Yun’s eyes gradually became firmer.

  Zhang Beichen didn’t hear her, so he asked doubtfully, “Your Majesty?”

   “Zhang Beichen, come here!” Zhao Yun shouted suddenly.

   “Huh?” Zhang Beichen walked over. In the pool, Zhao Yun stood on the water surface, revealing half of his body… This scene was exactly the same as in the simulation at that time.

  Zhang Beichen’s eyes are staring straight. This beautiful face, top-notch figure, and that proud Yujie Fan make people want to stop.

   “Let’s help Gu take a bath!” Zhao Yun blushed slightly, suppressing her shame and saying this.

“my pleasure!”

  …

  The waterfall is still flowing, and the water splashes on the surface of the pool, playing beautiful notes and echoing in the mountains.

  When Zhang Beichen and Zhao Yun returned to the carriage, Zhao Yun was already weak and sat lazily on top of Zhang Beichen.

   “Gu really took advantage of you!” Zhao Yun didn’t expect that she would be so impulsive during the day.

  Zhang Beichen put his arms around her slender waist, “But weren’t you very happy just now?”

  Zhao Yun blushed and said, “During the simulation, these memories are all skipped…”

  The two were talking shamelessly, and Zhao Yun suddenly asked: “How does Gu compare with Aunt?”

  Hearing this question, Zhang Beichen’s heart tightened.

  A woman asks another woman, no matter who she favors at this time, she will make herself unlucky.

  He then said: “The King of Qin is the King of Qin, and the King of Zhao is the King of Zhao. They are both magnificent queens.”

   “Want to fool around?” Zhao Yun knew what he was thinking and didn’t pursue it. She said, “Speaking of which, if my aunt knew that her prime minister was by Gu’s side at the moment, I don’t know what expression she would have.”

   Thinking about it, Zhao Yun’s expression was a little excited.

  Zhang Beichen thought to himself, if it had been two years ago, Ying Yiren wouldn’t have brought troops to kill him immediately?

  He clearly remembered that at the beginning of the simulation, the Yingyi people would fight all over the country at every turn, just like the old Qin people, no matter whether they won or lost, they just wanted to win.

  Although my temper has restrained a bit now, I am still very strong in my bones, and I will not allow my people and things to be snatched away by others!

  …

  Zhang Beichen and Zhao Yun continued to move forward, and soon reached the border of South Korea.

  Zhao Yun was cool, and said to Zhang Beichen: “Zhang Qing, see you in the future.”

  After speaking, she just waved her whip and left.

  Zhang Beichen thought it was time to go on vacation in South Korea, but who knew that it was Qin’s motorcade that came to pick him up.

  The captain said: “Your Majesty is worried about the bumpy journey of the prime minister, so he specially sent me to come to meet him, and ask the prime minister to get on the bus.”

  Zhang Beichen had no choice but to get in the car, and was dragged back to Qin directly by the team. Even in order to avoid Wei Yao, the team even spared a long way.

  …

   “Damn it, how does this Yingyiren know that the king wants to stop Zhang Beichen?” Wei Yao was very angry when he heard that Prime Minister Qin was picked up by the people of Qin on a detour when he returned home.

  In order to block Zhang Beichen’s convoy, she specially asked the border guards to guard her. She ran thousands of miles from the palace to the border city, but she didn’t meet anyone at all!

   “Zhang Beichen has been in the Zhao country for so long, that woman Zhao Yun must be plotting against him!” Wei Yao clenched her fists, “If this continues, my king’s Lord Beichen will be snatched away by them!”

   “No, no, no, next time we must find an opportunity to complete this king’s plan!”

  …

  Zhang Beichen returned to Qin State and continued his days as the prime minister of Qin State.

  Qin’s reform has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now it is training the army to prepare for emergencies.

   Time has passed half a year.

  Zhang Beichen goes to court when he has something to do, and goes out to train soldiers when he has nothing to do. When he is free, he either goes out on a date with Ying Yiren, or chats with other queens on the simulator.

  Finally, it’s time for the simulator’s cooldown refresh.

  【The emulator can be turned on again】

  【The emulator is turned on】.

  Everyone put down what they were doing and quickly entered the simulated time and space.

  …

  【You have acquired the newest identity—a generation of celebrities, Zhang Beichen. 】

  Zhang Beichen checks his own information. At this time, he is in South Korea and is the prime minister of South Korea. The basic attributes are also good, golden three stars, with high prestige and leadership at the beginning.

   “Zhang Qing, we are together this time!” Han Mengshu happily said to Zhang Beichen, “You must fulfill your promise and help the widow become emperor!”

   “I will do my best!” Zhang Beichen said.

  Zhang Beichen began to check the current Korean information.

  During the previous simulation, although South Korea had a strong bow and crossbow, it was poor in other aspects, and the reform method also deviated.

  After his mission to South Korea in the real time and space before, and the change of King Han, the Korean court is now very stable. Shen Buwang, Bao Ying and others are very peaceful and perform their duties.

   Agriculture can be self-sufficient, handicraft industry has also been developed, and iron smelting technology is very developed, even more developed than Qin at this time.

“South Korea wants to unify the world. The method I used before may no longer work.” Zhang Beichen used the strategy of changing the country to Bashu before. Now this method has been known by the queens of several countries, blocking the way for South Korea to change the country. .

“The surrounding countries are not easy to fight.” Zhang Beichen thought about it. The situation at this time is different from before. Before that, South Korea could conquer a part of its territory and expand its strategic depth. Now that all countries are strong, it may be difficult. .

  “There is no strategic depth, surrounded by wolves, the territory is small, the population is small…Normal development, South Korea will still be destroyed.”

  Zhang Beichen recalled the experience learned in many simulations.

  Generally speaking, if a country wants to grow rapidly, there are only two ways.

  One way is metaphysics, such as the power given by a powerful god, which often requires a price.

  The other way is naturally to improve the level of technology, relying on technology leadership to make up for the gap in strength.

   “I have also made ironware, and I have also trained light cavalry and heavy infantry… There are not many choices left for me!”

  If it is Wei and Chu, which are already powerful, they only need to increase the speed of development to have the possibility of unifying the world.

   But now it’s South Korea.

  Zhang Beichen is determined to improve military technology again.

  …

  He found Han Mengshu and asked, “Your Majesty, is there any alchemist in the palace?”

   “Alchemy alchemists?” Han Mengshu asked suspiciously, “Of course not, I don’t believe in alchemists.”

  Because she had no results in practicing immortality in the previous simulation, she simply didn’t care about this aspect.

   “Are you planning to practice Taoism?”

   “No, I need their alchemy materials.” Zhang Beichen said, “I have great use.”

   “The widow made an order to find it for you!” Han Mengshu immediately ordered to find an alchemist who could make alchemy.

  【Hearing that King Han ordered to find alchemists who made alchemy, many alchemists came here admiringly, hoping to be appreciated by King Han. 】

  There are many alchemists who practice in this world, some practice in seclusion, and some practice in the world.

  The alchemists who make alchemy need a lot of natural materials and earth treasures, so they all practice in the world and are attached to the princes and nobles.

  A few months later, dozens of alchemists gathered in the Palace of the King of Han, waiting to be received by the King of Han.

  Han Mengshu and Zhang Beichen met them.

   “I’m waiting to meet King Han and meet the prime minister!” The alchemists waited nervously, they were all prepared before they came, and wanted to sell their panacea, the method of longevity, to King Han.

   “All of you listen to the prime minister’s orders. If you can be used by the prime minister, you will be rewarded.” Han Mengshu said.

   “Yes!” Everyone looked at Zhang Beichen, waiting for his assessment.

  Zhang Beichen asked: “Who is proficient in the art of fire alchemy?”

“I!”

   “I am also proficient!” Several alchemists stood up.

  Zhang Beichen asked: “Are you familiar with saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal alchemy?”

   Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what Zhang Beichen meant. These were not natural treasures.

  Zhang Beichen asked the others to wait, and asked them to follow him and Han Mengshu to the newly built alchemy room.

  The materials have been prepared here, and craftsmen are waiting.

   “Do you know what will happen when saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal are mixed together?” Zhang Beichen asked several people.

   “It will catch fire!” A alchemist said, “I have used this method to make a fire to make alchemy before, but once I blew up the alchemy furnace, I never used it again.”

  Zhang Beichen said with a smile: “So you have discovered gunpowder, but unfortunately you didn’t realize its function.”

   “Gunpowder?” Not only the method, Han Mengshu also asked in doubt: “Zhang Qing, what is gunpowder? What does it treat?”

   “It is not used for treatment, on the contrary, it is a weapon for killing!” Zhang Beichen said.

  ”Murder weapon?” Several alchemists hurriedly said, “I can only make alchemy, not kill people!”

   “You don’t need to kill people.” Zhang Beichen asked craftsmen to grind saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal into powder and mix them in a certain proportion.

  He spread the powder on the ground and said, “Everyone, please stay away!”

   After everyone left, Zhang Beichen picked up a lit long stick and lit it from a distance, only to see a sudden flash of fire, accompanied by a strong smell of gunpowder smoke, and the fire quickly disappeared.

   “This is gunpowder?” Han Mengshu asked, “What is it used for? Could it be used for fire attack?”

   “Your Majesty is only talking about one usage of it!” Zhang Beichen laughed, “Gunpowder can be ignited quickly, and it can indeed be used to make weapons for fire attacks. But it is most suitable for making muskets and fireballs!”

   “Fire gun?” A flaming spear appeared in Han Mengshu’s mind. She felt that this kind of thing looked fancy, but it was hard to say how useful it was.

  As for the fire bomb, Han Mengshu thought it was a kind of burning object thrown at the enemy.

   “Next, I will demonstrate the fire bombs for you. There will be sound and fire. Please prepare yourself mentally.” Zhang Beichen reminded.

   “Zhang Qing just demonstrates!” Han Mengshu said.

  Zhang Beichen asked people to wrap the gunpowder in sackcloth, apply grease on it, and apply several layers repeatedly to leave a flammable fuse. In this way, the most basic fire bomb is ready.
