Qin Niang followed Li Mu to the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, the more Fang Yuanyuan thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, so she went to Gu Mansion in person, Gu Chen hadn't come back from the palace, so she asked people to notify the housekeeper.

The housekeeper didn't dare to slack off, and immediately asked people to send a letter to the palace.

After Gu Chen got the news, he guessed that the other party was preparing to make a move, so he took leave with the emperor and hurried out of the palace.

He took the firearm he had brought into the palace to show the emperor before, and went directly to Jingzhao Yin's mansion.

This way.

As soon as Qin Niang arrived at the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, Li Mu was polite to her, and did not let her stand under the hall, but asked someone to move a chair for her, and then handed the fire gun to her, and asked in a consultative tone: "Young Mrs. Gu, take a look, is this an improved version of the picture drawn by your own hands?" ”

When it comes to firearms, Li Mu doesn't dare to be careless at all.

And the woman in front of him is a capable person who can pick up a pen and improve the drawings, and he doesn't dare to be disdainful.

Qin Niang took the light firearm and weighed it, her eyes narrowed, although the material was very similar, she could still see that this firearm was slightly different from the one Gu Chen took back from the blacksmith a few days ago, and after opening the magazine, she found that it could only contain one gunpowder.

"It's not my improved version, it's a fake." Qin Niang only glanced at it, and then handed the firecrackle back as it was, "Lord Li, the power of this firecracker is only a short range of 100 meters, and there is still a big gap with my improved version.

Li Mu was taken aback: "This is a fake?" ”

Moreover, the speed of this fraud is too fast, right? It's only been a long time since this new product came out, and it hasn't even been officially used publicly.

"To be exact, it's an imitation, the other party seems to know what my improved product looks like, but the structure inside is very different, they probably didn't get the drawings I took, but they have seen the appearance of the firecracker, so it's good to be able to do this."

For an imitation, it can be improved to this extent just by its appearance, and the imitator's technique must not be bad.

"But...... This, isn't this new style of firearm in charge of Gu Shao? There shouldn't be many people who have seen it, how can the other party imitate the new product like this? Li Mu was so shocked that he was a little incoherent, "Could it be that there is a mole around you, and someone has leaked the style of the firecracker?" ”

However, this is not right, if there is a mole, why not draw a drawing as it is, then you can make an exact one?

If it's not a mole, who can see the newly made product up close?

Li Mu's mind was a mess.

"The drawings I drew can't be imitated by ordinary people, so it's impossible for someone to be able to trace the drawings and leak them out, so there's only one possibility, that person has only seen the finished product, and it may just be a glance from a distance, and he is not even qualified to use it, so he can only make it look like this."

Qin Niang said, and glanced at the firearm in Li Mu's hand again, only to feel that the producer of the imitation was above the level of Tie Niu, otherwise, he couldn't just look at the appearance from a distance, and he could improve the finished product like this.

This requires not only craftsmanship, but also high attainment.

This person is on the enemy's side, but it is a terrible existence.

"That'...... What does this person want to do when he uses imitations? Li Mu didn't understand, it looked like they were deliberately letting them discover this firecracker.

specially put a shot in a crowded place, injured someone, and then threw down the weapon and ran away, could it be that it was to blame Qin Niang?

But what can a woman do even if she is detained in Jingzhao Yin's Mansion?

Could it be that the other party still expects to do something big with those imitations, so that he can buckle another hat on the Gu family's head?

For a while, Li Mu's mind turned back and forth, and he thought of countless possibilities.

"Master Li, now that the words have been made clear, can I leave now?" Qin Niang looked at Li Mu and asked.

She didn't want to stay overnight in this mansion, and those who watched her being taken away by the servants didn't know how to spread the word at this time.

"I guess I'd better wait." Li Mu didn't treat her harshly, and ordered someone to serve her tea, and the two of them sat face to face, like two homely New Year's friends.

Although he believed what Qin Niang said, but after all, this is just empty words, although few people know about the improvement of this new type of firearms, but after all, His Majesty has already passed the clear road, if he lets her go back at this time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain in front of the emperor.

"Master Li is waiting for me, right?" A loud voice came in from outside, and then, a slender and tall figure flashed in quickly.

The movements were so fast that the servants didn't have time to see the faces of the people who came, and when the people were already standing in front of Li Mu, everyone was shocked, so fast.

"Master Li, I brought the genuine product, you can compare it, and you will know where the fake is." Gu Chen said, opened the box in his hand, and exposed the lightweight firearm.

Li Mu only glanced at it, and subconsciously felt that the one in Gu Chen's hand was even more good.

So, he picked up the one in the box, put it in his hand and played with it carefully, Gu Chen glanced at the beam without a trace, and patiently pointed to the one he brought and said: "You see, this spring is different, my one can shoot at least three hundred meters." ”

When Li Mu heard this, he hurriedly looked through the firearm inside and out, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, he looked up at Qin Niang, and sighed: "Young Mrs. Gu is really capable, she can transform a firearm to this extent." ”

Qin Niang pursed her lips and smiled generously and elegantly, without any intention of being modest.

After all, in this capital, she did improve the best firearms, and even the cartographer, he could draw the original map, but he couldn't make it any more refined.

"Master Li, my one can shoot three times in a row, and yours will be gone all at once." Gu Chen kindly explained the firearm in his hand to Li Mu inside and out, and finally asked, "Now, can I take my wife back?" ”

Where did Li Mu dare to say no, and repeatedly gestured to them to please.

The couple walked out of the gate of Jingzhao Mansion and got into the carriage, Gu Chen's horse was very spiritual, even if the master didn't ride, it would automatically follow the carriage and obediently follow back to the house.

"Do you think the bait was thrown out?" Qin Niang asked.

She wasn't sure what the other party's intention was to deliberately leave the imitation in the theater building, but she was sure that the other party must be secretly watching their actions.

"I guess it's thrown out." Gu Chen put his arm around her shoulders, leaned against the wall of the car, squinted his eyes and said, "As soon as I went in just now, I knew that there was someone hiding in the Jingzhao Mansion, and that person must be peeping in the dark, so I deliberately compared the differences between the two firearms, and specially told the other party the key to making three consecutive shots, presumably the other party will definitely pass the original words back." ”

Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that there were so many people in the lobby just now, and as soon as he entered, he found that there were people hiding in the dark.

"What's wrong with Tang Wan recently?" Qin Niang asked.

Now that the bait of the firearm has been thrown, the rest of the matter will wait and see.

The other party hurt someone today, and since he failed to convict her, presumably the other party's original purpose was not to blame her.

Not to blame, Gu Chen also said that someone was hiding in the dark and eavesdropping, so it was to know the key between the two firearms.

Come to think of it, the other party can't get her drawings, so she can only rely on some descriptions to transform, which is also a talent.

"After the Gao family was seized, the Gao family winery was naturally also raided, she had no place to go, so she lived in an annex in Song Xi, closed these days, it seems that she is holding back a big move." For Tang Wan, a woman, if Gu Chen hadn't wanted to prevent her from having bad intentions again, he wouldn't want to pay attention to her actions at all.

"She is really Song Xi's person." Qin Niang sneered, and when she thought of the child Tang Wan was pregnant with before, her eyes became meaningful.

For no reason, Song Xi would not take Tang Wan in, especially now that Tang Wan has fallen into such a field, and even has no use value, if it weren't for the special relationship between the two of them, why would he take in such a useless woman?

"I don't know if Song Huaizhi knows that Tang Wan cooperated with him on the surface, but in fact he is Song Xi's person, if he knows that his downfall is probably related to Tang Wan, I am afraid that he will be so angry that he sneaks back to the capital and secretly kills Tang Wan." If it weren't for the fact that Song Huai had already left Beijing, she really wanted to kindly send someone to reveal the news to him.

The carriage entered Gu's house and stopped at the Yimen, and Gu Qing rarely appeared.

"Master, there is news from the border pass, King Ling has gathered a large number of Xishu troops to invade my border, the three princes led troops and border soldiers to attack on both sides, and King Ling has been captured, and he can be escorted back to Beijing in a few days." Gu Qing said and handed over a roll of notes in his hand.

Gu Chen unfolded the note and glanced at it, then handed it back to him: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so fast, in a short period of time, he dealt with the thieves who were harassed at the border pass, and captured the King of Ling, and passed the news to the military guards." ”

The three princes captured the king of Ling, presumably the emperor must be very excited, and he will definitely reward the three princes, which will inevitably cause Song Xi's jealousy, as long as he is in a hurry, he will make some moves.

At this time, they are just going to be high-profile.

"Yes." Gu Qing took the note and disappeared again.

"When the third prince returns to Beijing, there will be no one in the capital to compete for the throne." Before Qin Niang, she never thought that this third prince would one day have the ability and strength that is not weaker than Song Huai, as long as he wants to fight for this position, no one will be his opponent.

After the news of King Ling's capture spread, the emperor was really happy, remembering that Song Yudu was already an adult, but he had not yet given a concubine, so he went to the queen of the harem to discuss the candidates for the three princesses with the queen.

However, not two days after the emperor's joy, he received bad news, that is, there was a problem with the post-disaster reconstruction project in Yao County.
