Chapter 114 External Intrigues, Internal Suspicions

In the end, Zhao Yu asked for fifty sets of sword and axe hand foot armor, thirty sets of crossbow hand foot armor, and twenty sets of archer foot armor, a total of one hundred sets of foot armor. In addition, there are 400 sets of paper armor. The surface of the paper armor is made of silk cloth or paper, and in order to defend against the damage of arrows, it is wrapped with 3-inch thick paper and hanging to increase the protective power.

This thing is characterized by its lightness, but you don't really expect it to have much defense, because this armor has always been distributed to village soldiers and box soldiers in the Song Dynasty. During the Song-Xia War, Song Renzong also asked people to build 30,000 sets and distribute them to the archers who defended the city. No matter what era it is, the status of the field troops should also be higher than that of the garrison troops, and among the garrison troops, the status of hand-to-hand combat is naturally higher, and the status of archers is lower. And these are assigned to the archers, which shows the strategic position of paper armor.

The reason why Zhao Yu wanted it was because he felt that no matter how good this thing was, it could also block the arrows, swords and swords shot by the bandits' inferior hunting bows, and the compressed three-inch paper armor, no matter how bad it was, should be able to weaken the lethality of a considerable part of the sword.

In fact, what Zhao Yu wants most is infantry armor, not because he can't afford it. Instead, the soldiers recruited by Zhao Yu were all recruited from the homeless people, and these guys were hungry and yellow-skinned, and they could afford to carry dozens of catties of infantry armor.

Then again, although this paper armor has average defense, it is still made of paper and cloth. But the price is not cheap at all, a set costs 28 yuan, which is equivalent to a family's annual use. The cost of a set of infantry armor is only 38 yuan, which is only 10 yuan less than that of infantry armor.

Five hundred sets of armor of all kinds cost Zhao Yu 15,000 yuan.

Zhou Huaizheng, who received the order, smiled and couldn't see his teeth, and sent Zhao Yu out of the street entrance of the cane warehouse, and then turned around and left. But then again, fifteen thousand times is big business there, and it's not surprising to have this treatment.

Zhao Yu returned to the palace and asked about the situation of the little Xuanzi Cui Niannu.

"Lord Wang, Mrs. Niannu is staying in the flower building today, as usual, just by chance going downstairs to wander around." Xiao Xuanzi hesitated, but couldn't help but say: "Although Mrs. Niannu didn't go downstairs much, she stood at the railing every day, watching the figure of the prince returning or going out!" ”

Hearing this, even if Zhao Yu was hard-hearted, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart. Zhao Yu really didn't know how to deal with Cui Niannu, who might be a Maitreya sect, and after a long while, Zhao Yu sighed, his expression was complicated, and he said intermittently: "This thing...... That's it...... Let your lady come to the king!" ”

For Cui Niannu, should he be prepared or pampered?

Zhao Yu has never made up his mind about this matter, and after redeeming Cui Niannu at the beginning, Zhao Yu has never touched Cui Niannu. Although as long as he gave a hint, Cui Niannu was washed white and naked. Waiting for Zhao Yu's favor in the quilt.

The problem is that Zhao Yu is afraid that he will have feelings for Cui Niannu, and even Cui Niannu has his own children. If it is proved that Cui Niannu is a member of the Maitreya Sect, what should Zhao Yu do? Killing his own son, Zhao Yu would never be able to do it. Because of the loss of his parents, Zhao Yu attaches great importance to his family.

In the trouble, Cui Niannu has already come to the scene, and on her white and flawless face, there is a joy that she wants to hide, but can't hide. It makes people feel pity.

"The concubine has seen the prince!" Cui Niannu's beautiful eyes fell on Zhao Yu, and he couldn't move half a point anymore.

Zhao Yu pressed the palm of the handrail, and couldn't help but hold the handrail tightly, and the joints of his fingers were a little white. Looking at Cui Niannu with complicated eyes, he said quietly: "During this time, this king is too busy, and he has wronged you a little!" ”

Cui Niannu's crisp and pleasant voice sounded, and he said gracefully: "The prince is a person who does great things, how dare the concubine drag down the prince?" As long as you can look at the prince from a distance every day, it is the blessing of the concubine. ”

If you don't fight, you fight......

Zhao Yu didn't know if Cui Niannu used this method to target the other party, but Zhao Yu had to say that he felt guilty about Cui Niannu. It was the first time that Zhao Yu hated Maitreya so much, if there was no such thing as his existence, why would he be so scruples?

Fingers tapped on the coffee table next to him, and Zhao Yu said slowly: "Niannu, this time this king goes to Jingdong East Road, are you willing to accompany him?" ”

Cui Niannu looked at Zhao Yu, his eyes flashing with a complicated look of joy and worry. "Lord Wang, will you be in some trouble with your concubine? When the concubine heard that the generals in the capital were going on an expedition, they all had their families staying in the capital. ”

Is it to get away with it?

There is also intrigue outside, and suspicion when he returns home, Zhao Yu found it very tired and annoying for the first time. Zhao Yu Huoran stood up and said stiffly: "This king said he would go!" ”

Zhao Yu said that, and walked away.

Cui Niannu's suppressed whimper sounded from behind.

Zhao Yu paused, sighed silently, and said, "It has nothing to do with you, this king has been attacked in the court, so his temper is a little short-tempered." You go back and pack up your salutes, and the day after tomorrow you will be about to go. ”

"It's all the concubines who are incompetent, the prince is troubled outside, and he can't relax when he returns home." Cui Niannu's cowardly and guilty voice made Zhao Yu's heart even more troubled.

However, lest Cui Niannu think too much, Zhao Yu suppressed the irritability in his heart and soothed: "It's none of your business, don't cry." ”

Cui Niannu stopped crying, but there was still a little choked in her voice. "Let the prince see and laugh!"

Zhao Yu sighed and said, "Go back and have a good rest!" ”

After that, Zhao Yu turned around and left without looking back. How tired I felt for the first time, not only physically tired, but even more tired mentally. Lying on the bamboo chair in the back garden, Zhao Yu enjoyed the touch of the breeze in a daze.

"Lord Wang! The county lord of Dangyang asks to see! Xiao Xuanzi reported outside the door.

Zhao Yu was stunned, and then remembered who the county lord was. The one who killed two husbands, the rich and leaking, the beautiful young woman. It's just that Zhao Yu doesn't know why she is looking for herself, since the farewell of the Bailulou Poetry Club, Zhao Yu has not been in contact with her.

Although there is some taboo about the widow status of the county lord of Dangyang, but everyone has come to the door, can they still avoid it?

Zhao Yu was depressed for three points and said helplessly: "Please come in as the county lord!" By the way, don't forget to instruct your subordinates to prepare tea and pastries, and also set up a bamboo chair here, so you can't slack off the guests! ”

"Yes!" After Xiao Xuanzi promised, he went down immediately. The next person came to prepare tea, cakes, bamboo chairs and other things. PS: The second update will be uploaded around 2 o'clock this evening! Please forgive me!
