He had a lot of strength, Chen Qiuniang only felt that her jaw was about to break, and she couldn't move her whole head, so she only raised her eyes to look at Zhang Ci, who was close at hand. A few strands of his hair fell down her cheeks, swaying gently in the breeze blowing in from the window, bringing a tingle to her cheeks.

He was so close that Chen Qiuniang saw her shadow in his dark eyes, and the little girl raised her head slightly. There was an elegant fragrance around her, like some kind of traditional Chinese medicine, and Chen Qiuniang thought it might be Zhang Ci's lavender. In a large family like theirs, the laundry will be smoked with specific spices.

Zhang Ci pinched her jaw, and the strength in her hand did not decrease. The two men were silent, looking at each other like two statues. In this pair of eyes, Chen Qiuniang saw his deep eyes, and the killing intent became deeper and deeper.

She just spied on the secrets of the Zhang family, and this man probably thought that she was planted by someone to find out, so he had the idea of killing her. It was also at this time that she remembered that the third miss, the sixth miss, Jiang Fan, and Lu Chen all said that Zhang Ci's temper was actually very bad and he was easily angry. In a few times they got along, he didn't have any bad temper, and Chen Qiuniang forgot about it.

After a long time, he relaxed his strength slightly, and coldly popped out a word from between his teeth: "Say." โ€

Chen Qiuniang's hair was sour, her jaw hurt a lot, and after a while, she whispered, "Let go." โ€

He let go of his hand and sat down very close to her, his tone was still cold, and he said, "Don't play tricks, tell the truth, I'll treat you as if I don't know, and let you go." โ€

Chen Qiuniang rubbed her chin before sighing and said, "My bottom line, I guess the second son has already checked it." Now I can answer two questions from the second son: first, my name is Chen Qiuniang, and now I am called Jiang Danfeng, the second master of Yunlai Hotel; Second, no one sent me, I was just desperate and didn't want to bother others. I also felt that the second son was a trustworthy person, so I came here. โ€

"Don't want to affect others, even me?" His words seemed to blame, but the indifference and murderous intent just now had receded.

"To involve others is to be involved. came to find the second son, but it was not a burden. Because even if I don't come to find the second son, those people are also your enemies. Chen Qiuniang said straight to the point.

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Zhang Ci sat next to her, and he didn't mean to return to his seat at all.

The two were close at hand, and Chen Qiuniang couldn't help but panic. Although she is in her thirties, she rarely gets along with men, even if she is too close to Dai Yuanqing in the past few years, she is still uncomfortable and feels very frightened.

"You go back and sit first, I'm afraid I'll say something. You're going to kill me. Chen Qiuniang pointed to his seat.

"There's no need, even if I sit back, if I need to hack you to death, I can still hack you to death." Zhang Ci retorted, just reached out and pulled a cushion against the wall next to her. With his hands on his head, he looked leisurely, and said, "You continue to say, even if you say it wrong, this son promises not to kill you." โ€

Chen Qiuniang glanced at him, and the people were still smiling, which was very different from the murderous one just now.

"Say it quickly. Ben Gongzi even canceled his nap. Zhang Ci urged.

Chen Qiuniang said: "Before I say it, I want to ask my son a few questions. โ€

"Say." Zhang Ci is very simple.

Chen Qiuniang was not embarrassed, and asked directly: "Your family's firearms have lasted for several generations, right?" The whole manufacture of firearms involves mining, iron smelting, gunpowder formulation, and the production of theoretical propulsion devices, etc., right? โ€

Chen Qiuniang didn't ask specific, she asked questions about right and wrong, and the answers she asked for were only to testify to her own judgment. Because the question is not a core secret. Zhang Ci nodded happily and said yes.

"So, what was the purpose of your ancestors when they brought this firearm into this world?" Chen Qiuniang looked at Zhang Ci very seriously.

Zhang Ci rolled his eyes slightly, glanced at her very calmly, and said, "I have no comment." โ€

"I wasn't going to let you answer." Chen Qiuniang muttered.

"And you still ask?" Zhang Ci had an expression of "you are an idiot".

Chen Qiuniang cleared her throat and said, "I'm just sorting out clues. โ€

"You go ahead." Zhang Ci's tone was lazy. It seemed that he was bored, so he lowered his eyes and pretended to sleep, the light and shadow hit his face, the well-defined face, the eyelashes drooped down, and trembled slightly.

Chen Qiuniang only felt that her heart was pounding. But the next moment, she remembered that the purpose of her coming here was not to appreciate beautiful men, so she didn't care whether she disturbed the eldest young master's rest, and continued: "I was thinking that if your ancestor wanted to dominate the world, with the power of the Zhang family, history would have been rewritten long ago. So, is the remaining reason to rely on this thing to protect the Zhang family? It's just a dead thing, how long can it be protected? Someone who can make such an item shouldn't make such a low-level mistake. โ€

Chen Qiuniang completely sank into the speculation of the Zhang family's crossing ancestor, and only felt that there was one possibility: "Unless he was in decline at that time, and the enemy was very powerful, if he wanted to turn the situation around and survive, he must have something decisive in the game of several parties." In this way, he had no choice but to create this double-edged sword. โ€

She speculated that although Zhang Ci was half-leaning there and did not move, his brows frowned slightly, and then his eyes lowered as if he was sleeping lightly. Chen Qiuniang looked at his watch and knew that her speculation was correct, and he didn't object, so she continued: "This double-edged sword must have solved the crisis encountered by your ancestor, but it has also involved the Zhang family in a dangerous situation for generations. Because the power of firearms is so great, everyone who has ambition wants to get it. It is precisely because of this that the Zhang family can be appreciated by the rulers for generations and occupy high positions. On the one hand, the ruler is trying to get it, and on the other hand, he is afraid of the Zhang family, so among the descendants of the Zhang family, most of the people who have some talent are the objects of the ruler's elimination. This is what I call 'the innocent and guilty'. โ€

Zhang Ci, who was half-hanging his eyes to recuperate, suddenly raised his eyes and looked over, his eyes were like knives. Chen Qiuniang was not afraid of this look, looked at him, and continued: "There is no record of the use of firearms in history. Around that time, your ancestors did something wrong. โ€

"You don't have to speculate about your intentions." Zhang Ci's tone cooled.

Chen Qiuniang knew that she was guessing in the right direction, so she still looked at him, and said with a chuckle: "I wrote that letter, not for the sake of mystery. These days, I've been thinking about all the things I've encountered, so it's necessary to be honest with the second son. โ€

"Honest?" Zhang Ci smiled sarcastically, with a cold face.

"Yes, honestly. I think that the Zhang family has firearms in hand, and all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods will inevitably play all kinds of tricks against Zhangfu, and there will inevitably be a lot of surveillance, and there will also be constraints in all aspects. Although I don't know why the Zhang family didn't create their own empire. But in Liuhe Town, as far as I know, the Zhu family is definitely not an ordinary businessman. Chen Qiuniang still looked at Zhang Ci, her eyes were as clear and honest as possible.

Zhang Ci's expression did not change, he was still as flat as a mirror, his black and white eyes squinted slightly, and he asked with some surprise: "You are still investigating the Zhu family?" โ€

"There was no deliberate investigation. If I could, I hope I would never have anything to do with the Zhu family. Chen Qiuniang pondered how to tell Zhang Ci before, but later, she felt that it was better to confess everything, including that she might be the daughter of Mrs. Hua Rui, presumably with the strength of the Zhang family, Zhang Ci already knew, and what she hid made this noble son disgusted. Now, her basket of eggs is pressed on him.

"But it is rumored outside that you are going to marry Zhu Wenkang." Zhang Ci asked, turned to one side slightly, changed his posture and pillowed his head, his expression was still careless.

"That kind of person, who married him. It was he who threatened me with Chai Yu's life and spread rumors. Chen Qiuniang pursed her lips, and then specifically said that Zhu Wenkang threatened her with Chai Yu's life. By the way, he told him about Chai Yu's possible life experience, and then speculated that the Zhu family might be the secret chess of the current emperor. is specifically responsible for pursuit, surveillance, etc., and that Zhu Wenkang's male pet Niannu may be the same as the minister, and he is the core head of the Zhu family's real strategy.

The implication of her words is that the Zhu family is actually placed here to monitor the Zhang Mansion's every move. Because the camouflage is too good, and the Zhu family has been in Liuhe Town for a longer time than the Zhang family, the Zhang family may not be very suspicious of them.

"But judging from Chai Yu's affairs, the Zhu family may be behind the imperial court." Chen Qiuniang came to this conclusion.

"So, what do you want me to do?" Zhang Ci listened carefully to his analysis.

"I hope the second son can help me." Chen Qiuniang asked very sincerely.

Zhang Ci pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled lightly, and said sarcastically: "Why should I help you? Even if the Zhu family is the enemy of the Zhang Mansion. The power of the Zhang Mansion is enough to deal with the Zhu family. Not much with you, not much without you. โ€

Chen Qiuniang was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that she had been analyzing things, but she forgot to give Zhang Ci a reason to cooperate with her.

"I understand feng shui gossip, I have studied architecture, and more importantly, I know firearms." Chen Qiuniang said nonsense. I thought I knew a yarn, so I went hunting with Dai Yuanqing, Xu Zhonglin also forced her to say that she couldn't take the woman to go, and only let her hunt a few birds in the shallow mountain, and then she was driven to live in the house under the mountain and wait for them to come back.

However, firearms are the core technology of the Zhang family, and Zhang Ci will definitely not let her give it a try. As for the theoretical part of firearms, she is a science student and knows more or less about it. If Zhang Ci asked, she could still give a rough idea.

Sure enough, Zhang Ci's face changed, his face turned cold, and he said, "You'd better not lie to me." โ€

"You have to be honest, I am so honest now, and you say that I lied to you." Chen Qiuniang smiled bitterly.

Zhang Ci got up suddenly and said, "You wait here." โ€

"Wait." Chen Qiuniang also got up immediately, but because her legs were numb, the whole person fell forward. Fortunately, Zhang Ci was quite conscientious, and pulled her into his arms at once. RP
