In the small cell, only an oil lamp in the corner gave off a dim light.
Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai calmly sat down on the chairs moved by the two guards. Bamboo was serving tea at the side. The fragrance of tea filled the air, dispersing the faint musty smell in the dungeon, as if they were in the same place. It's not a dark dungeon, but a tea room.
After the initial ecstasy, Bai Muxiao became increasingly nervous, and her heartbeat echoed in her ears like a drum. She knew she had to seize this opportunity to get out of this hellish place.
Thinking about it, Bai Muxiao couldn't help but clenched his fists, took a step forward, and said eagerly: "Prince Xiao, no matter what you and the Marquis want to know, I can tell you!"
"Oh?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, half smiling, as if to say, what can you tell me?
Bai Muxiao thought quickly. Xiao Yi must have some agenda when he asked his men to kidnap her all the way from the royal capital to southern Xinjiang. She originally thought it was because Nangong Yue had an old grudge with her and wanted to humiliate her face to face. Himself, so the Queen Mother went against her promise and gave herself to Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
But at this moment she knew that she was wrong. Since Xiao Yi came here with Guan Yu Bai, it meant that this matter had nothing to do with Nangong Yue... Could it be because of Xi Ye?
Recalling that Han Lingfu had caused trouble for the Southern Xinjiang army when Xiye attacked Western Xinjiang two years ago, Bai Muxiao thought he knew the truth, almost flatteringly telling how Han Lingfu instigated the late emperor to deal with the Zhennan Palace, and how he and he had Xi Ye, General Ta Hai, told all about the cooperation...
Hearing this, Xiao Yi showed an impatient expression. He was not interested in hearing about these messy and troublesome things in the royal capital, and he didn't come here for this reason.
"That's enough!" Xiao Yi interrupted Bai Muxiao directly, "I am not interested in these things. I just want to know where the design drawings of the Liannu presented by Han Lingfu came from!"
Bai Muxiao didn't expect that Xiao Yi would mention Lian Nu, and couldn't help but be startled, with a look of surprise on his face.
In order to allow Han Ling to show his face in front of the late emperor, she gave Han Lingfu the blueprint of the serial crossbow. However, Han Lingfu was incompetent and the serial crossbow he made was useless. After that, she forgot about it. , until Xiao Yi brought up the old matter again today.
Bai Muxiao lowered his eyes and suddenly understood.
That’s it!
It turns out that Xiao Yi went to great lengths to bring her to southern Xinjiang for the drawings of the serial crossbow.
Yes, the repeating crossbow she provided is a weapon beyond this era. Han Lingfu is short-sighted, but he has a keen eye to recognize heroes!
Unlike Han Lingfu, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai are both world-famous heroes!
Bai Muxiao couldn't help but her heart beat faster, and a spark of hope emerged in her heart that had once been plunged into despair.
She raised her eyes to look at the two of them, nodded and said, "The serial crossbow was designed by me!" She spoke quickly, her eyes flashing in the dim light of the oil lamp.
She is lying! Xiao Yi could see the guilty conscience in her eyes at a glance, and exchanged a look with Guan Yubai beside him. Both of them knew it well.
The corners of Xiao Yi's mouth were slightly curved, with a touch of sarcasm, and he thought to himself: This woman Bai Muxiao really likes to be smart!
If it weren't for Guan Yu Bai's thirst for talent and his desire to find the real designer of Lian Nu for Dai Viet's use, Xiao Yi would not want to pay attention to Bai Muxiao at all. To Xiao Yi, it doesn't matter who designed Lian Nu. As long as he and Xiao Bai join forces, no one can stand in their way!
Guan Yubai closed the tea lid, put down the tea cup in his hand, and suddenly said: "Miss Bai, the repeating crossbow you designed can fire twelve arrows in a row, with a range of eight hundred steps. Its sophistication can be said to be unparalleled in the world. It’s rare... Miss Bai has unique insights and ingenious ideas on spring weapons, which I admire very much."
Bai Muxiao straightened her back confidently, her eyes sparkling, and she smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
Guan Yubai slowly added: "Recently I have been studying a kind of sleeve arrow, but I encountered some obstacles on the mechanism spring. I am puzzled. I would like to ask Miss Bai to give me some advice..." He said Then, Guan Yubai made a gesture, and Xiao Si took out a roll of parchment from his sleeve.
Sleeve arrows? ! Bai Muxiao's complexion changed slightly, and her heart skipped a beat. To her, Xiujian was just a name that appeared in story books, and she knew nothing about it.
But the art of mechanical spring leads to the same goal through different paths, she can't say that she doesn't understand Xiujian...
She must find a way to conquer the east and attack the west!
Bai Muxiao's thoughts were racing rapidly, her eyes became firm, and she said with a smile: "Master Hou, the art of mechanical spring is just a trick." She stroked her sleeves and talked eloquently, "Looking at the root cause, Fang It's the great road. Prince Xiao, Lord Marquis, as long as you agree to let me live, I am willing to offer an iron smelting technique that can improve the shortcomings of hard and brittle iron, making it lighter, harder, and at the same time have better toughness. !"
Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai should be able to understand that once she has her iron smelting skills, Nanjiang will far surpass Dayu in forging weapons and other iron tools. In an era where swords and guns are the main weapons, this will make Nanjiang The combat effectiveness of the Xinjiang army far exceeds that of other countries. Even if Xiao Yi wants to send troops northward in the future, it is very possible!
Thinking about it, Bai Muxiao's eyes burst out with sharp light and her face was radiant.
Xiao Yi touched his chin, the smile at the corner of his mouth became thicker and full of interest. He vaguely understood that Han Lingfu must have been deceived by this woman in the past.
Bai Muxiao looked at the two of them expectantly, expecting Xiao Yi to ask her about iron smelting, but she saw the other party leisurely drinking his tea as if he had never heard of it.
At the same time, Xiaosi had already walked up to Bai Muxiao and opened the roll of parchment in his hand.
Guan Yubai said lightly: "Please give Miss Bai some advice."
Looking at the complicated and delicate sleeve arrow structure and notes on the parchment drawing, Bai Muxiao stiffened up, her lips trembled slightly, her mind was in confusion, she didn't know how to respond, and finally asked stiffly: "I don't know Hou What do you want to improve? As far as I'm concerned, there's nothing wrong with this drawing."
"Miss Bai, are you sure?" Guan Yubai's tone was light, but he pressed forward step by step.
Is there something wrong with this drawing? Bai Muxiao's pupils shrank slightly, and her heart suddenly lifted.
Suddenly, she understood that Guan Yubai's so-called asking for advice was just an excuse. The other party's real purpose was to see if she had any real talent.
Guanyu Bai is like a **** in military warfare. He is both civil and military. He is not only extremely smart, but also as careful as a hair. Like the reincarnation of Zhuge, he is not someone who can easily get away with it! Not to mention, he came prepared.
Silence permeated the cell. No one spoke. They just looked at Bai Muxiao quietly. The temperature around him seemed to have dropped a lot in just a few breaths. Bai Muxiao only felt a chill coming from him. A shudder rose in my heart.
After a moment, Bai Muxiao bit her lower lip and finally said: "Since Lord Marquis has guessed it, I will no longer hide it. Lian Nu was not designed by me..."
This answer was already expected by Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai. Both of them were calm and relaxed.
"May I ask where Miss Bai got it from?" Guan Yubai continued to ask.
Bai Muxiao's eyes trembled slightly and he said vaguely: "I accidentally found a book from overseas in a bookstore and got it from the book. Also, the iron smelting technique I just mentioned... …”
Unfortunately, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai were no longer interested in listening and stood up directly. They all saw the uncertainty in Bai Muxiao's eyes and knew that she was just trying to deceive her.
Guan Yubai still had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and said: "Since Miss Bai only got it by chance, her knowledge must be limited... Ayi, let's go."
After saying that, the two walked out of the cell one after another without any hesitation.
Bai Muxiao's face suddenly lost all color, and she nervously tried to stop them: "Master Marquis, please listen to me..."
She thought she could impress them with her iron smelting skills, gain a foothold in southern Xinjiang, and have a new life!
She thought that with her amazing talent, and because she knew what others didn't know, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai would definitely appreciate her talent.
She thought that since Xiao Yi could reuse Han Huaijun and Fu Yunhe, he must be eclectic and meritocratic, so he should also use her!
She didn't expect their reaction at all, and they just left like that.
"Prince Xiao..."
Bai Muxiao wanted to step forward and call out to the two men, but was blocked by a guard.
The guard impatiently pushed Bai Muxiao with his scabbard.
She staggered a few steps back and could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai strode out of the cell.
Following that, the guards moved away the desks and desks, and then with a "bang", the heavy cell door closed again, and only Bai Muxiao was left in the cell, trapped by the desperate loneliness and darkness. Shrouded...
As for Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai, they have already walked out of the dungeon. Behind the two of them, the dungeon door was slammed shut from the inside. Everything in the courtyard returned to normal, with birds singing, flowers fragrant, and the wind gentle and sunny.
The two of them walked forward leisurely, and Xiao Yi's casual voice came from the wind: "Xiaobai, what do you think?"
"She didn't tell the truth." Guan Yubai said firmly.
"Oh?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Guan Yubai.
"She said that she accidentally saw the drawings of the Liannu from an overseas book. It would be reasonable to assume that the iron smelting technique she just mentioned came from that book." Guan Yubai is not tight. He analyzed it slowly, "But what is the explanation for those poems with different styles but stunning ones?"
There cannot be another ancient book that records many unknown poems and lyrics, right? !
Xiao Yi's intuition also told him that Bai Muxiao was lying, so he said casually: "Then keep her in jail until she says it!"
To Xiao Yi, Bai Muxiao was insignificant, just locked up and fed.
While talking, the two of them came to a fork in the road near Dongyi Gate. Xiao Yi stopped, pointed to the right and said: "Xiao Bai, my grandfather plans to leave for Heyucheng today. I want to see him off. ."
Guan Yubai responded and said: "Ayi, say hello to his old man for me."
The two parted ways here, one went back to Qingyunwu, and the other walked to the bluestone path on the right, towards Tingyu Pavilion.
Before entering the courtyard, Xiao Yi heard a familiar chatter and laughter coming from the other side of the wall. Apparently, Nangong Yue and Xiao Yu arrived a step earlier than him.
The corners of Xiao Yi's lips curled up slightly, and he quickened his steps into the courtyard. At a glance, he saw two adults and two children talking at a stone table under a sycamore tree.
Mr. Fang was sitting in a wheelchair, holding a red swaddle in his arms, looking down at the cute baby in the swaddle. He let Xiaotuanzi grab one of his fingers and play with it, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed.
Little Xiao Ye yawned lazily and closed his eyes.
Little Xiao Yu stood next to Mrs. Fang's wheelchair and explained seriously: "Great-grandfather, my brother sleeps most of the day. My mother said that my brother is growing." He was obviously growing too, but he didn't My brother sleeps so much! Who makes him the elder brother? I can only take more care of this lazy younger brother!
Looking at little Xiao Yu acting like a grown-up, Mr. Fang smiled even more heartily and said, "Our brother Yu is so smart and knows so much." As he said this, Mr. Fang handed the swaddling clothes to the baby. The wet nurse on the side.
Of course! Little Xiao Yu proudly puffed up his chest, then rubbed his head into the old man's arms and said coquettishly: "Great-grandfather, please come back soon! My brother and I will miss you!"
Xiao Yu seemed to be afraid that the old man would not believe it, and quickly added: "I really, really, really, really want to!"
Nangong Yue sat aside and watched Xiao Yu coaxing others with a smile. Their brother Yu's mouth looked like it was covered with honey.
Original Mr. Fang was reluctant to part with him, but when Xiao Yu said this, he felt a surge of feelings of separation. His eyes were slightly sour, and he hurriedly said: "My great-grandfather will also miss our brother Yu!"
Mr. Fang lovingly touched the little guy's furry head, his eyes were very soft.
Unless he has something to do, Mr. Fang would not want to leave Bixiaotang. For him, Bixiaotang is already his home. His grandson and grandson-in-law could not be more filial, and his two great-grandchildren are cute and considerate.
However, he must go back this time.
In a few days, the Fang family will have their annual ancestor worship ceremony. As the representative of the eldest family member, he has to go back to his ancestral home!
Nangong Yue was about to say something when she saw a tall purple figure walking into the yard from the corner of her eye. She was immediately attracted to her attention and shouted with a smile: "Ayi!"
"Dad!" Xiao Yu also saw Xiao Yi and hurriedly ran over. As expected, he was held in his arms by his father, and then he kissed his father on the face.
Little Xiao Yu really misses her father. Recently, daddy is always away from home!
When the little guy woke up, his mother said that his father had gone out, and then he didn't see his father coming back before he went to bed at night.
Mr. Fang also knew that Xiao Yi was very busy, so when Xiao Yi came to greet him yesterday, he told Xiao Yi not to see him off today. He was only going out for a few days anyway.
When the work is done, he will come back immediately. He will also witness the establishment of the Yue Kingdom with his own eyes. This is the hard work of his grandson!
Thinking about it, Old Man Fang was filled with excitement as he watched the very similar father and son approach him.
"Grandpa," Xiao Yi said with a smile, "I arranged for a few guards to **** you back to Heyu City."
Recently, the founding of the country has been complicated. Xiao Yi was so busy that he only had time to go home and sleep. And Nangong Yue had just given birth. The couple really couldn't get away, so this time he could only let Bixiaotang's The guards escorted Mr. Fang back.
Mr. Fang was not polite to Xiao Yi, so he responded, and then said: "Ayi, it's getting late, it's time for me to set off."
Mr. Fang looked lingeringly at Xiao Yi's family of four, and finally his eyes fell on little Xiao Ye's sleeping face, his cloudy eyes filled with smiles.
This trip, he returned to the Fang family's ancestral home in Heyucheng not only to worship his ancestors, but also for another purpose, which was to take this opportunity to talk to the Fang clan leader about his plan to adopt little Xiao Ye to the eldest brother. .
Adoption rules are very strict, and Old Master Fang secretly planned to wait until Brother Ye turns one year old before formally proposing it to the King of Zhennan, but before that, he must first get acquainted with the Fang clan.
Afterwards, Xiao Yi personally pushed Mr. Fang’s wheelchair to Dongyi Gate, then carried him into the carriage. Then the family of four stood quietly, watching the carriage leave the house, speeding away, and soon disappeared. At the end of the road...
Little Xiao Yu was a little depressed because of the departure of Mr. Fang. However, after a while, a black and white kitten ran up to rub his calf enthusiastically, and the little guy smiled again.
"Go!"
The kitten is his new playmate, and he named it Go.
Nowadays, in addition to studying with her mother, Xiao Yu takes care of her younger brother and Go chess every day. Her life is very busy and fulfilling...
A few days later, the little guy was studying with his mother in the small study as usual. Suddenly, there was a careless sound of lifting the curtain, and Huamei rushed in panting, not caring about the doubtful eyes of others, and anxiously Report:
"Prince Princess, there has just been news from He Yucheng that Mr. Fang is seriously ill!"
The air around him suddenly became cold.
