Chapter 234: The Remnants of the Lost Country
Unprovoked disaster? The sixth prince said this, and several people were confused.
Lu Kun arched his hand and said: "I don't know what the prince means by the unjustified disaster?" β
The sixth prince sneered: "This fire is obviously done deliberately, first use the fire to trap the king, and then leave a door, the king is forced by the fire, and must avoid the inner room, and then the person planted a highly poisonous poison in the inner room, it is really a ring, and it is extremely poisonous." Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that the death of Concubine Hui at the beginning was specially arranged by them, just to lure this king into their trap. β
Lu Kun's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "What the Sixth Lord means is that someone is trying to assassinate the Prince. β
"Not bad" The eyes of the sixth prince fell on Chu Feifei, and softened: "So this time, the fault is not you, this group of people is vicious and can't be prevented, you don't have to worry, this king will explain to the royal brother." β
Chu Feifei nodded, relieved, the sixth prince was willing to take this matter into account, it can indeed alleviate a lot of her guilt, thought about it, and said: "This group of people is really vicious, you are really unlucky to provoke them, Lord Wang." β
The sixth prince is speechless, and this king doesn't care about your little girl
Chu Feifei walked to the side at this time, reached out and touched the charred black partition fan, the wood was still a little hot at this time, but it was not very hot. With the movement of her fingers, clusters of black powder fluttered down, revealing a crystalline coating within.
Everyone sighed in surprise, and Lu Kun asked in surprise, "This is the fireproof coating you asked the workshop to make?" β
The sixth prince also reached out and picked up a random place on the wall, touched it, and sure enough, behind the charred black powder, there was a layer of uneven crystals, and it was vaguely seen that what was wrapped inside was the log. Looking at the part that was not burned by the flames, it still looked like the wood and bright red paint, but I just looked closer. You will find that there seems to be something mixed in the paint, and there is a feeling of fog.
The sixth prince originally thought that this kind of paint that looked a little different, which was specially researched by Chu Feifei, the kind of paint that would reflect light. It's just that I didn't expect that there would be such an amazing function as fire protection.
The sixth prince looked at Chu Feifei in shock, how much ability this girl still has, he doesn't know?
Chu Feifei lowered his head and studied the crystal layer for a long time, only then did he realize everyone's surprised expressions, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "This is a kind of crystal sand." As you have seen before, it can reflect colorful light in the sun, but it also has the property that it can expand several times and crystallize at high temperatures, which is what you see now. It is this crystalline coating that envelops the wood and forms a flame-retardant barrier that keeps the pieces from burning. Not really."
Chu Feifei was also a little scared when she said this, otherwise this time, with the fire she had seen before, this scarlet residence would have turned into a sea of fire long ago. Not only the emperor and concubines, but also the important ministers of the Manchu Dynasty of the Tianyou Dynasty will be destroyed in this fire. This trick can really be described as a desperate poisonous plan
"That's why you'd rather delay the construction period and stick to this paint." Lu Kun sighed: "Fortunately, you insisted on your opinion at the beginning, otherwise the consequences this time would be really unimaginable." β
The sixth prince was also slightly shocked at this time, knowing in his heart that if Chu Feifei hadn't used this so-called flame retardant coating at the beginning, this time, he would have borne the brunt of the disaster and would not have escaped his fate. sighed in my heart: I thought I had saved this girl this time. It can be regarded as a credit for himself, but he didn't expect that it was actually this girl who saved his life.
Thinking of this, the sixth prince said to Chu Feifei: "Yes, so to speak." This time, not only do you have no fault, but also have merit, go, this king will take you to ask the royal brother for a reward. β
Chu Feifei was a little embarrassed by everyone's expressions and said: "The properties of this crystal sand were originally discovered by the craftsmen of the workshop, but they disposed of it as waste. I just stumbled upon this information, and I don't take much credit. And this crystal coating is not completely fireproof. It's just a matter of delaying the ignition, that is, at most, it can delay some time for the firefighting. If it weren't for the sudden extinguishing of that strange fire today, even with this fireproof coating, it would still burn in the end. β
Lu Kun listened with his eyebrows condensed, and then said: "The prince just said that someone assassinated the prince, could it be that he has already guessed the origin of the assassin?" The fire burned very strangely, I wonder what method the assassin used? β
The sixth prince smiled coldly: "Who else is just the remnants of those who have lost the country." After speaking, he didn't seem to want to say more about this matter, and as soon as he pulled Chu Feifei, he walked out.
Chu Feifei followed briskly: "Lord Wang, what is the remnant of the country?" How did they make a feud with the prince? Could it be that the prince destroyed their kingdom? No, you are a civil official."
The sixth prince snorted lightly: "Who said that this king is a civil official, although this king has a concurrent position in the household department, he also has the title of overseer in the Gyeonggi camp." Otherwise, why do you think this king can have 2,000 private troops? β
"The prince is really both civil and military," Chu Feifei praised.
The sixth prince clearly knew in his heart that this girl was now sensible and caring, but in fact, it was because he had to rely on him to say good things for her in front of the imperial brother for a while. But knowing this, hearing the girl praise him, the sixth prince couldn't help but smile happily.
Lu Kun, who was following behind, said at this time: "What the prince said is Xiaoyue Kingdom? β
The sixth prince glanced back at Lu Kun in surprise: "You actually know Xiaoyue Kingdom?" β
Lu Kun was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "I also heard from the traders who traveled south and north, it is said that this Xiaoyue country is located on the edge of the desert, the land is barren, and there are no products. If it weren't for the fact that a spiritual spring in the country provided them with an oasis, it would be almost barren land. β
The sixth prince said lightly: "You will inquire, although it is hearsay, it is not far off." β
Lu Kun said again: "I also heard that the reason why the conditions of this Xiaoyue country are bad, but the people can still survive is because there is a treasure under this country. β
The footsteps of the sixth prince suddenly stopped, and he turned to look at Lu Kun, who looked back without dodging with a decent smile on his face.
The sixth prince sneered: "I don't know where this Chief Manager Lu heard this news?" The person who told Mr. SΓΉ Lu about the news, this king was very interested in meeting him. β
Lu Kun smiled slightly: "I don't know that the prince still has a hobby of listening to stories, if I see that trader who likes to tell stories next time, I will definitely bring it to the prince's mansion." "To be continued
