In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, at this time, the Lin Family Artillery Workshop basically threw itself into the manufacture of the Thunderfire Chariot with all its might, and stopped the rest of the work.

Now that everything was ready, she went to the racecourse first and was in charge of preparing for the test gun.

Yes, the gift that Ge Qingqiu wants to present to the emperor today is the Thunderfire Chariot that Lu Changfeng asked her to help develop and finally supervised the construction recently.

is similar to the kind of magic cannon in the Ming and Qing dynasties she knows.

The weather at the racecourse today was exceptionally good, with clear skies and cloudless skies.

The emperor and his entourage sat in the carriage for most of the hour, and it was easy to stop at the racecourse.

He asked suspiciously, "Is this the gift you want to give me?"

Now that there are no outsiders around, Ge Qingqiu also changed his name with confidence, lowered his head, and replied respectfully: "The gift is inside, Your Majesty can rest assured, it will not disappoint you." ”

As he spoke, Lin Xiaoxiao greeted him.

She saw Ge Qingqiu talking to a middle-aged man with a good temperament, and she roughly guessed seven or eight points in her heart, but she still stepped forward and asked uncertainly: "Qingqiu, this is ......"

Ge Qingqiu nodded at her, and Lin Xiaoxiao immediately knelt down and said respectfully, "The grass people have seen Your Majesty. ”

The emperor had no interest in her, shook his fan, and walked in front of her without squinting.

Fortunately, Lin Xiaoxiao saw it openly, and didn't pay much attention to it, just patted the dust on his body, stood up again, and walked in with him.

In the racecourse, everything has already been arranged.

Lin Xiaoxiao led the emperor to sit down in the stands, and Ge Qingqiu took two balls of cotton-like things, handed them over, and said, "Your Majesty, please." ”

The emperor looked at her suspiciously, and did not go directly to get the two balls of cotton, but frowned and asked, "What is this?"

Ge Qingqiu smiled, made a gesture of plugging his ears, and then explained: "This thing is used to block the ears, if the movement is too big for a while, the people are worried about alarming His Majesty's holy body." ”

The emperor sneered, glanced at her obliquely, and did not take the two balls of cotton, and when he spoke again, his tone was full of disdain, "I seem, is it someone who needs these children's things?"

Ge Qingqiu didn't force him, nodded and retreated, and then began to signal the workers of the artillery workshop who had already been prepared to start working.

After a while, I saw seven or eight workers in the distance, carrying a huge copper tripod together. The other two people were pushing the thunderfire chariot and stood about a hundred meters away from the copper tripod.

How could the emperor not know the Thunderfire Chariot, and his color changed a little at the moment.

He was about to open his mouth to ask Ge Qingqiu to come over, but he suddenly said in a loud voice: "Ready, let's go!"

At the sound of an order, the workers loaded the gunpowder and lit it.

Only a loud "bang" was heard, and in an instant, everyone felt as if the mountains were shaking, and although their stands were still a long way away from the thunderfire chariot, they also felt the strong vibration caused by its explosion.

It took a long time for the emperor to come back to his senses in such a thrilling shock.

He looked at the copper tripod in front of him in disbelief, and after a while, he asked in a daze, "Is this ...... This is Beixuan's Thunderfire Chariot?"

Ge Qingqiu had already returned to him.

Seeing that the emperor's face was full of shock, she smiled and nodded, and said, "Exactly, this is the first batch that was made only the day before yesterday, because today's situation is special, so the people did not let them load the most powerful gunpowder into it." If Your Majesty needs it, the people can find a bigger venue on another day, so that Your Majesty can see the Thunderfire Chariot we have built. The folk girl can guarantee that the power of our chariot will never be lost to that made by Bei Xuan. ”

When the words fell, the emperor's heart was already extremely shocked.

He was about to open his mouth to ask for details, but he heard a person behind him: "The concubine has long heard that Miss Ge has always been smart, but she didn't expect that even the blueprints of this Bei Xuan's chariot could be obtained." What a talent!"

The emperor turned his head and saw that Lu Qingyun had already stood behind him at some point.

Her understatement reminded the emperor once again that Ge Qingqiu, as an ordinary merchant, seemed to know too much.

Lu Qingyun actually didn't know what Ge Qingqiu knew specifically, but she could also guess that if it wasn't for Lu Changfeng giving her something to help her before leaving, she would be able to make such a big move with this cannon, and it would be impossible to hide it just by relying on a mere Lin family artillery workshop.

She mentioned this sentence as if she had not intended it, and immediately looked at the emperor's face with a look of doubt.

Lu Qingyun was more sure of his guess in his heart, and then smiled casually: "It should be very troublesome to make this chariot, right? Looking at the girl's situation today, she should have started to make it very early, and she can complete such a big project by herself under such conditions, the girl's ability is really admirable." ”

Ge Qingqiu didn't understand what she meant.

She sneered in her heart, only saying that this woman really had no quality at all, and she had to insinuate to kill Lu Changfeng here before she stopped.

At the end, she turned her head to the emperor and said: "Lu Liangdi praised it, the people's daughter naturally can't do this matter alone, and thanks to His Majesty's wisdom, he handed over the drawings to King Rongjun early, and the people's daughter has the opportunity to make this thing." ”

At this moment, Lu Qingyun was stunned.

She didn't expect that this thing was actually ordered by the emperor to be made by Lu Changfeng early in the morning, and for a while, she felt that what she had just said had completely reduced herself to a joke.

Princess Yan Yi was the first to come up and gloat, "Some people still want to sow discord, who knows that in the eyes of her cousin, she is an outsider at all, how can she have the opportunity to know about such a big matter." ”

Lu Qingyun's face turned red when he was said, turned his head, and glanced at her hatefully, but he met the prince's angry eyes. Knowing that what she said today was a little too much, she closed her mouth and retreated.

After listening to Ge Qingqiu, the emperor on this side had a much changed his impression of her.

I heard him let out a long sigh and said, "That's right, this thing is indeed the blueprint I gave to Changfeng earlier. However, this is a secret, but he was able to give this picture to you, which shows his trust in you. ”

When Princess Yan Yi heard this, she hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Father, Sister Qingqiu is the wife of her cousin who has not passed the door, and they are all a family, so my cousin naturally wants to trust her." ”

The emperor smiled and waved his hand, "Yes, you have not failed his trust, I have shown this drawing to many skilled craftsmen, none of them can make this thing, who knows that you have a little girl to make it." Your ability is really impressive. ”
