At this time, it is already the middle of the year, although it has passed the white dew and is approaching the autumn equinox, but the autumn tiger in Yujing City has not left this year.

The sky was cloudless.

The sun is still hot.

Li Chenan didn't like this kind of weather very much, he wanted to stay in the West Building, but Amu, this kid, wanted to sit in the pavilion and watch the lotus flowers in the pond.

So he had no choice but to stay in the pavilion, but he made a basin of ice, and a pot of herbal tea was frozen in the ice.

Saltpeter is available in both the hospital and the grocery store, but its name is Fire Nitrate.

The hospital uses this thing as medicine to treat heat stroke, cold, heart and abdominal pain, and other diseases.

And the grocery store sells this thing, but it is not used for the production of fireworks and firecrackers as Li Chenan thought, but mainly for Taoist alchemy!

Fireworks are no.

And firecrackers, it's really made of bamboo!

In other words, the fire and medicine of the Eight Classics have not yet appeared in this dynasty of this world!

Li Chen'an's eyes lit up.

He looked at Xiong Da who was standing opposite, and asked again: "You mean, everyone on the battlefield is doing real swords and guns? No, there is no such thing as artillery?"

Xiong Da scratched his head and smiled, feeling that the young master was a little strange today.

"What is artillery?"

“...... It's a big iron pier," Li Chenan gestured with his hands, "There is an iron pipe as thick as the mouth of the bowl, which can launch a powerful cannonball that shocks the sky." ”

Xiong's big head shook like a rattle, "No, the villain has never heard of it in the army for many years." ”

"What about defending the city, and what are you going to do about it?"

"Arrow towers and catapults. ”

"Okay, I see. ”

Xiong said goodbye and retired, and Li Chen began to think about fire and medicine in his heart.

After thinking about it for a long time, he found a problem, he knew that fire and medicine were made of saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal in a certain proportion, but he didn't know what the ratio was, and he didn't know how to make guns!

Who knew that crossing would happen to you?

If you know, then you did a fart business in your last life, and you should study hard to become a military expert!

In such a backward era, if guns are made...... Even if it is a red-coated cannon and a rifle that comes and goes, equipped with an army of 10,000 people, I am afraid that it will be able to sweep the entire world.

Regret not being at the beginning!

Guns and cannons will definitely not be made, at most they will get fire and medicine out and add some sugar to them.

Thinking like this, Li Chenan gave up the idea of tinkering with guns and cannons, and was about to make a list for Xiong Da to buy back the materials needed for gunpowder, but suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind the wall.

He looked up and was shocked—

Just under that sun, a girl wearing a snow-white dress came in style.

Her hands hung down and clasped in front of her.

Her hair rose and fell like waves with her steps.

The white hosta on her head glowed in the sunlight.

The silver necklace around her slender neck also shimmered in the sun.

Could it be that this is like a frightening and graceful dragon?

She seemed to raise her eyes and glanced at Li Chen'an, as if she saw Li Chen'an's intent.

Her face flushed slightly, she hung her head, and walked towards the gazebo.

The distance is closer.

Li Chenan saw the pretty face clearly.

He was startled, and a guy stood up!

And at this moment, Amu also glanced back, he glanced at that, and then seemed to think that the lotus in this pool was more beautiful, so he turned his head and continued to look at the budding lotus flower resting with a red dragonfly.

Li Chen'an's gaze crossed over Ning Chuchu, and he looked at the paper kite that was following behind Ning Chuchu.

Then he looked at Ning Chuchu again and took a step out of the pavilion: "No...... You, you, have we seen it in Guangling City?"

Ning Chuchu raised his head, and a sly light flashed in his eyes.

"Childe recognized the wrong person, right?"

“...... On the third day of the third month of the third month, I met a handsome father-in-law from the palace in Pingtung, Guangling City! He looks like you!"

"In addition, this young lady behind you, I shouldn't admit my mistake!"

"She was by the side of that handsome father-in-law that day...... What is your girl's last name?"

Ning Chuchu was stunned, turned his head to look at the paper kite, and asked in a low voice with some curiosity: "Where did you come from?"

The paper kite covered her mouth and smiled, and returned: "Xu is Li Gongzi who mistook Miss's brother for the father-in-law in the palace. ”

When Li Chenan heard this, he suddenly realized.

"Oh, so he's the girl's brother...... Girl, please come in. ”

Ning Chuchu glanced at Li Chen'an with resentment, and stepped into the pavilion with a skirt, but was suddenly startled.

She pointed to the basin of ice on the table, "Where did this come from?"

"I made it, come on, come on, it's too hot this weather, it's almost this iced herbal tea, I'll invite you to have a drink!"

Ning Chuchu sat opposite Li Chen'an, the paper kite stood behind her, and the eyes of the master and servant both fell on the pot of crystal clear ice, and their faces were extremely shocked!

Because of the ice thing, in such a hot season, even if she Ning Chu Chugui is the fourth princess of Ning Kingdom, she can't enjoy it, but she didn't expect to see such a big basin of ice here!

He said he made it...... How did he come up with this?

Li Chenan poured two bowls of iced herbal tea and handed them over, Ning Chuchu and Paper Kite took it, and the master and servant took a small sip, a cool and slightly sweet feeling roared down, and the summer heat of the body disappeared suddenly.

Ning Chuchu took another big sip, and suddenly felt extremely comfortable all over his body.

I still remember that when I was a child, my father drank a bowl of this thing, and it was also cold, but the taste was much more bitter than Li Chen'an's bowl.

She put down the bowl, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and gently touched her mouth, her eyes looked at Li Chenan happily, and her lips opened lightly:

"Ruoshui and I are good sisters. ”

"I heard that Ruoshui found a fiancé in Guangling City and came to Kyoto, so I think it's you?"

Li Chenan grinned and nodded.

"Listen to my brother...... It's the one you saw in Pingtung in Guangling City on March 3, the handsome father-in-law...... He said that he found an embroiderer in Guangling City, so it must be you?"

"It's like a fake!"

Li Chenan took out the silver medal from his arms and handed it over: "After coming to Kyoto for more than ten days, I was able to meet your brother, but Ruoshui said that he was very busy, and in the palace, I can't get in as an identity, so please apologize to him after you go back!"

“......”

Ning Chuchu thought to herself, Ruoshui, this little girl is afraid that it is deliberate!

She thinks this guy is really important, but it also shows that she is still worried that she has robbed her fiancé.

That little Nizi has always been extremely confident in whatever she does, but she has a lot of precautions against herself in this matter, does this also mean that her beauty is comparable to her?

Ning Chuchu suddenly smiled, and Li Chen's heart jumped with a smile 🤲-

He had to admit that the sister of the head of the Lijing Division in front of him did have a face that was not inferior to Zhongli Ruoshui!

It's just that now that I have Zhongli Ruoshui, I can't float like in my previous life.

He faked coughing twice, leaned over and said:

"That's the case, your brother had to let me be the embroiderer at that time, and he said that he would pay four taels of silver a month. ”

"Look...... Five months have passed in the blink of an eye, and I am bothering the girl to help me ask your brother, when will I be paid twenty taels of silver?"
