Wen Cheng waited for a long time, and finally four women appeared on the gatehouse, one of them was a girl in a plain white Luo skirt who was blessed with a young body and said crisply: "My daughter has seen her father." ”

Wen Cheng took a closer look, it was his daughter Wen Suxin, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Suxin, you can make your father worry, your mother doesn't think about tea and dinner, she only worries about your safety day and night." ”

Wen Suxin's eyes were red, and she felt guilty: "My daughter is not filial, which makes my father and mother worried." ”

"That's it, you go downstairs and go back to Fenzhou with your father."

"Daddy, daughter......"

Wen Su wanted to speak and stopped, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "My daughter still wants to accompany Sister Ning in Mengjiazhuang, Sister Anru and Sister Yueru to stay longer, please tell my father to tell my mother, and let her relax, my daughter is fine." ”

Wen Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed greatly.

The first thing he thought of was that his daughter had entered the den of thieves and was held hostage by thieves.

At this time, a young man dressed in a Confucian robe and wearing a square scarf appeared on the gatehouse, and Chao Wencheng bowed his hand to make a compilation, saying: "Student Wang Jizong, I have seen Mr. Wen, and I have seen Master Du, who commanded the envoy. ”

Wen Cheng looked at it, and it turned out to be Wang Jizong, a well-known genius in this area.

Many years ago, after he had seen this loyal man in Taiyuan, there were several great Confucians studying the knowledge of this young man, Wen Cheng watched for a long time, and felt that this famous talent was worthy of his name, and his talent was still above him, and he was humble and polite, not good at being ambitious, and he could not covet his fame when the family was in the middle of the road, and kept the family, which made Wen Cheng admire.

But now, why did this high-spirited talent appear in Mengjiazhuang's den of thieves?

Wen Cheng was puzzled, so he only made a compilation with the gift of his peers, and said politely: "It turned out to be Mr. Wang, I haven't seen you for many years, and Mr. Wang's demeanor has not diminished back then." ”

Wang Jizong was a little flattered, and hurriedly returned the salute: "The junior of the student district, how can you deserve a great gift from Mr." ”

Wen Cheng stroked his beard and smiled: "Mr. Wang's talent is no less than Wen's, so he naturally deserves it." ”

Wang Jizong replied gratefully, then hesitated, and said: "Sir, Miss Wen is accompanied by all the sisters in Mengjiazhuang, accompanied by the cheap inside, and the chief steward treats the young lady with courtesy and care, please don't worry too much, please don't worry too much, please also tell Mrs. Wen, don't worry too much, after some time, the chief steward of my family will come to the door in person, and visit Mr. and Mrs. with a salute." ”

Hearing this, Wen Cheng was stunned, his mouth open, and he couldn't say a word.

He naturally understood the meaning of the words, the chief steward of Mengjiazhuang treated his daughter politely and cared for him, isn't it...... Isn't it his daughter in the picture?

Moreover, the purpose of the great steward, who was familiar with their Wen family, but suddenly came to visit him with a salute, was already clear, that is, to propose marriage to them?

This......

Seeing Wen Cheng's astonishment, Wang Jizong said apologetically: "Sir, the chief steward of my family looks dignified, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the dragon and phoenix among the people...... Go down in history. ”

When Wen Cheng heard this, his face was a little ugly.

Wang Jizong's meaning couldn't be clearer, this was telling him that the chief steward of Mengjiazhuang was worthy of his daughter and the Wen family.

"Sir, the chief steward of my family said that Miss Wen is like the moon and stars, and like a bird lark, she should not be a caged bird in the palace, she should be free to be in the sea and the sky."

Wencheng is another flute.

On the gatehouse, Wen Suxin's face was flushed, and she wanted to refute Wang Jizong, but she couldn't say anything when the words came to her mouth, so she had to lower her head and say nothing.

The Ning family on the side quietly reached out and pinched Wang Jizong's waist.

Wang Jizong bowed his hand to Li Yaodong below: "Li Gongzi, the two young ladies of the Li Mansion also live very well in Mengjiazhuang, please go back and tell the second elder, please don't worry." ”

Li Yaodong frowned: "It's all in the thief's den, it's okay?" I think they're being ......."

"Li Yaodong!"

Li Anru interrupted him stiffly, called him by name, and said, "What does it matter to you whether I am doing well or not?" What does it have to do with the Li family? You asked me to go back, just to add me to the Qingcheng Mansion and give the Li family a glorious lintel. ”

"You go back and tell him, I don't want to marry into the palace, don't be that caged bird, I want to live in Mengjiazhuang and live here for the rest of my life."

"You...... You...... Great rebellion! Li Yaodong's face turned blue with anger.

Li Anru shook his face and walked away.

Luo Da Niu on the side copied two kitchen knives and followed behind with his face licking.

Wang Jizong was anxious: "Brother Da Niu, those two kitchen knives are used by the insiders to cut vegetables, can they be returned to Jizong?" ”

"Oh."

Luo Da Niu smirked twice, put the two kitchen knives on the wall stack, and then ran to chase Li Anru with a smoke.

Li Yueru glared at Li Yaodong outside, and then rushed in front of Wang Jizong, picked up the two kitchen knives, and chased after Luo Daniu.

Wen Suxin looked at the backs of the Li sisters, and then looked at her father downstairs, her face a little tangled.

Wen Cheng closed his eyes and sighed: "Alas, since this is the case, you should live in Mengjiazhuang first, if you are wronged, you will ask someone to bring a letter to your father, and your father is fighting for this old life, and he will also give you justice." ”

"Thank you, Daddy."

Wen Suxin's eyes were slightly red, her cheeks were also slightly red, and she said to Wen Chengying, "Daddy, my daughter has gone to find Sister Anjou." ”

"Go, go, Miss Li was suddenly ...... It's better for you to spend more time with her. ”

"Well, be careful on the road when Daddy goes back, have a good trip."

With that, Wen Suxin turned around and left.

Outside the village, the steward of the Ninghua Palace, who was in a hurry, hurriedly rode his horse to Wen Cheng's side, and said, "Mr. Wen, who are you?" ”

Wen Cheng smiled: "Steward Tao, the prince has a good intention, and I have received it in my heart, please thank the prince on behalf of Wen and the little girl." ”

The steward's face was ugly: "This ...... Mr. Wen, how do you ask Tao to return to the prince? If the prince is angry? What should I do? What's more, are you going to leave Miss Wen in this den of thieves? ”

"Hahahaha."

Wen Cheng raised his head and laughed: "The prince has a noble status, how can he be angry with Wen Moujie? ”

"As for leaving the little girl in the den of thieves...... If she can be carefree here, what about the den of thieves? It's also much more comfortable than the gold and silver houses. ”

The corner of the steward's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't speak.

"Everyone, please forgive Wen for going first."

As he spoke, Wen Cheng arched his hand towards Du Yingtang and the others, and then took a dozen famous people and rode away.

His Wen family didn't have many families, and he only brought twelve people on this trip.

didn't go far, the man with a bow and arrow on the gate tower of Mengjiazhuang suddenly shouted: "Mr. Wen, please wait a moment, there are many thieves on the way to Fenzhou, and bandits are rampant, wait for Mengjiazhuang Township Yong to escort Mr. Wen back." ”

As he was talking, the heavy door of Mengjiazhuang suddenly opened, and a cavalry roared out from inside, about two hundred people, all tall and tall, and full of energy.

Wen Cheng smiled and arched his hand towards the gatehouse: "Wen is not hypocritical, thank you for the hero." ”

"Goodbye, Mr. Wen."

As soon as Wen Cheng left, Li Yaodong couldn't stay.

Although there were dozens of family members with him on this trip, this area was indeed rampant with bandits, and he did not dare to take dozens of people back to Fenzhou alone.

After struggling for a while, he finally said goodbye to Du Yingtang and the others and chased Wencheng.

Du Yingtang remained silent and watched quietly.

It wasn't until now, after taking a deep look at the towering gatehouse in Mengjiazhuang, that he said to the judge: "Let's go, go to Jingle County and Ninghua Qianhu Office first, and then go to Lan County." ”

Soon, only the steward surnamed Tao was left outside Mengjiazhuang, and there were three hundred palace guards.

"Steward Tao, what should we do now?" One of the leaders of the guards stepped forward and asked the steward.

Steward Tao frowned and looked at Mengjiazhuang fixedly, and only said after half a ring: "Send a few people to hurry back and tell the prince, let's go to Jiaoqu Farm to live first, and wait for the prince's order." ”

"Okay."

……

When the atmosphere inside and outside Mengjiazhuang was tense, there was a lot of joy in the musket factory.

Because, Chen Zhan and Li Xuejing made the animal power linkage device according to the drawings given by the chief steward.

A donkey pulls a large turntable like a grinder, and there is a belt on the turntable to drive a power shaft that is horizontal at the front end of the drilling machine, and the shaft is equipped with a gear to drive the disc of the drilling machine.

The gear on the disc is movable, and when you want to stop drilling, you can lift the gear up to get out of the power shaft, and when you want to drill, press the gear down and set it with the gear on the power shaft.

This simple linkage device can't change gears yet, because the gear shifting device is a bit complicated, and it will be impossible to get it out for a while.

Nowadays, it is very good to be able to replace manpower with animal power, and after building more drilling machines, one donkey can drive four or five drilling machines, thus saving manpower.

Chen Zhan made a total of eight clay molds, and was waiting for the clay molds to dry, and now he is also staying in the musket factory, working with Li Xuejing to study this linkage device and drilling machine.

Most of the other craftsmen of the musket factory and the artillery factory also came, gathered around and watched a donkey pull a disc to drill the barrel of the gun.

The barrel was developed quickly, thanks to the stability of the drilling press, and also thanks to the drill bit, which has undergone several heat treatment processes, making it harder and more durable than previous drill bits.

The progress of the drill pipe is naturally faster than before, only less than ten days, more than half of the drill has been drilled, if it goes well, another ten days can get a qualified barrel.

I don't know when the chief steward will come back.
