The Supreme Prosecutor of the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 473
"Birds?"
Li Er was stunned.
What the hell is this? Birds, can you still deliver letters? Isn't this nonsense? He could hardly hold back and said that Chen Qiu was talking nonsense!
But considering that Chen Qiu had so many evil ideas, So when the words came to his lips, he still held back.
However, when he held back, all the civil and military officials, especially Wei Zheng, burst into laughter instantly.
"Mr. Chen, you didn't come to court because you were high on Erguotou, right? Birds are wild animals, how can they deliver messages?"
"It is true that flying birds are very fast, but after all, flying birds are beasts in the wild. How can they understand human speech, and how can they deliver messages to people?"
"Isn't this a joke?"
"If you don’t try it, how will you know if it’s a joke or not?"
Chen Qiu was extremely calm. Facing everyone's surprise and doubts, he didn't care at all. He just said to Li Er:"Your Majesty, this method is called... flying pigeons to pass the message!"
"Brother Fei?"
"It’s not Brother Fei, it’s Fei Ge! Pigeon!"
"As far as I know, people in some areas in the southern part of the Tang Dynasty have long had experience in domesticating domestic pigeons, but they have always been used as meat pigeons for food."
"But in fact, pigeons have excellent memories and know the way. Good pigeons can fly back even if they are thousands of miles away!"
"Using pigeons to deliver messages and flying pigeons to deliver messages are by no means empty talk!"
After Chen Qiu finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and stood there confidently, causing all the civil and military officials to whisper.
"Pigeon?"
"I do know about pigeons. They are a kind of flying bird that tastes very good. I have eaten them before, but... pigeons can still deliver letters? I do not know how?"
"Mr. Chen is a little too whimsical this time, right? How can a pigeon deliver a message?"
"Indeed, can you still fly back from thousands of miles away? Even people may not be able to know such a long way, let alone birds?"
"Whether you believe it or not, I don’t believe it anyway……"
Many people expressed disbelief. It wasn't that they didn't believe Chen Qiu, but Chen Qiu's words and his so-called methods were really unbelievable and unbelievable.
"Chen Aiqing, what basis do you have for this...?"
Li Er is a little bit sore, but at this time, he is the only one who can speak. Whether it is questioning or asking something, he always needs to confirm.
"in accordance with? Wouldn’t you know if you try it? Chen
Qiu smiled confidently:"There are always pigeons in Chang'an. Of course, these pigeons have not been trained.""
"But, we might as well give it a try!"
"How to try?"Li Er immediately asked.
All civil and military officials also pricked up their ears, expressing curiosity and wanting to hear what kind of medicine Chen Qiu was selling in his gourd.
"Simple!"
"Find dozens of pigeons and mark them individually! For example, put a small ribbon on your feet, write a number on the ribbon, etc.……"
"Then, they send people to put these pigeons in cages and send them dozens of miles away, and wait for a period of time to see if they can fly back to their original owners!"
"Of course, not all pigeons are suitable to be homing pigeons, so a distance of dozens of miles is not a short distance!"
"Not all pigeons can fly back, but those who can fly back must not be just a few!"
"If these pigeons can fly back, doesn't it mean that pigeons can know the way?"
"Then, train and select some good enough pigeons, tame them in Chang'an and the border areas respectively, and over time……"
"How difficult it is to use flying pigeons to send messages between the two places! ?"
"good idea!"
Li Er instantly exclaimed in admiration!
"Although I don’t know if Chen Aiqing’s method is feasible for the time being, it is indeed a good method that you can try!"
"Try it, it won’t cost much manpower and material resources, and it doesn’t matter if you fail."
"But if it succeeds, it will be much easier for Chang'an to communicate with the border areas in the future!"
"It sounds like you might as well give it a try. but……"
Changsun Wuji frowned and said:"Master Chen also said that not all pigeons can fly back! What if the selected pigeons fly back the first time but fail to fly back the second time?"
"Even if flying pigeons are feasible, they are not as reliable as messengers.……"
"If one can’t fly back, where are the two?"
Chen Qiu sneered and retorted directly.
Now that I've said it all, how could I not be prepared???
"Two can't fly back, so what about ten or a hundred?"
"It’s just a pigeon, it’s easy to feed and doesn’t require much food! Exchange and feed the homing pigeons from the two places separately, feeding dozens of them!"
"When you need to deliver a message, you can release ten or even dozens of them at a time, and you will never fail to reach them all!"
"Even if someone wants to stop him and shoot him with an arrow or something, it's not that simple!"
"Say no more!"
Li Er nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and then waved his hand:"Immediately send people to search for pigeons all over Chang'an, then mark them and send them dozens of miles away to release them!"
"Tomorrow morning, I will see with you all how many pigeons can successfully fly back!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Retreat from the court, retreat from the court!!!"
Li Er is very excited. The problem that has troubled him for several months now finally has a little hope. Even if it is still uncertain, it still makes him feel a lot better.……
"Chen Aiqing, bring Chang Le to the palace tonight. The Queen misses Chang Le very much and wants to see her."
"Also, bring some good wine, I want to have a good drink with you!"
Li Er directly grabbed Chen Qiu and said that he would drink with Chen Qiu today, but these words made Chen Qiu roll his eyes involuntarily.
God damn, drink to your heart's content.
Don't I know that you just want to be in vain? What about eating for free, drinking my wine for free?
Nowadays, Erguotou customers are very popular in Chang'an City!
Whether they are ordinary people, dignitaries, or even relatives of the emperor, it is hard to find a drink!
Originally, the price of Erguotou was not high. It was too expensive, but there were so many people buying it that Erguotou was quickly sold out, and the newly brewed wine every day couldn't sustain it at all...
As a result, the price of Erguotou in the market began to rise sharply. Increase!
It's not like Li Er can't afford it, but... wouldn't it be foolish to pay a high price for his son-in-law's wine?
Therefore, he is always very 'witty' in using various methods to buy his son-in- law's wine. Chen Qiu makes a drink in his hand~!
The most common way is...the queen wants to be happy today, can you take her back to her parents' home? Let us have some drinks by the way?
However, Chen Qiu is not so stingy, just drink some Drink some, are you scared?
After retiring from the imperial court, many people immediately searched for pigeons on the streets of Chang'an. Then, more than a hundred of them were made into extremely good ones, sent dozens of miles away from Chang'an, and released!
Whether it is possible to send a letter by flying pigeon, we just have to wait for the result tomorrow morning!
