Chapter 462: Strange Stone from Beyond the Sky
Su Yi, who said something unceremoniously, was stunned on the spot, she trembled all over, and kept thinking in her head, if such a thing really happened, what would be the result, and Your Majesty really wouldn't blame her?
Originally, she still had some confidence, but once she faced Luo Qingluan, Su Yi's confidence was suddenly swept away, and she understood that Luo Qingluan's status in Nangong Qing's heart was definitely not comparable to her. couldn't help biting her lip, her originally rosy lips had been bitten out of a trace, but she didn't feel any pain at all, but she couldn't even speak.
"Why, you still don't admit it?"
Su Yi, who didn't fight, didn't give up if she didn't fight her heart, Nangong Wan'er already regarded Su Yi as Luo Qingluan, and all kinds of merciless words rushed out of her mouth, venting endlessly: "Su Yi, don't think that if you become the queen, the emperor's brother's heart will be on you." From the beginning, what he loved was Luo Qingluan, if this woman hadn't married the king of Chu, do you think the emperor's brother would marry you? Hmph, you are really pure, Luo Qingluan coaxed you into obedience in a few words, I really thought she was so good to you, right? ”
"No...... No, it's not like that......"
Her heart was like turning over the river and the sea, Su Yi's eyes finally turned red, why didn't she think what Nangong Wan'er said was true? Yes, His Majesty doesn't like her at all, it's just because she's sensible that he pities her. His Majesty likes Luo Qingluan from beginning to end, no matter how she pleases and is obedient, His Majesty will not really fall in love with her.
Su Yi couldn't help but think of the most precious story that Luo Qingluan told that day, hehe, this is just Luo Qingluan's means. Your Majesty also listened to this story, and only then did she begin to get better, doesn't this mean that Your Majesty really obeys Luo Qingluan in everything?
Even Luo Qingluan asked him to like her, and His Majesty did it, which is conceivable...... Luo Qingluan's words are a holy decree for Your Majesty!
Nangong Wan'er's continuous words came from her ears, as well as Yu Chi Lianqing's pretended safety, like hundreds of flies buzzing, and she had a headache when she heard it. Su Yi covered her head and shouted: "It's not like this, don't say it, don't say it......"
"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Yu Chi Lianqing was very proud, but her face was still full of concern, wanting to comfort him.
Su Yi brushed her hand away, and finally reached the point of almost collapse, and yelled at her: "Shut up!" You all lied to me, don't say it! ”
After saying that, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and she couldn't help herself with excitement, so she turned around and rushed out desperately.
Seeing Su Yi fleeing in embarrassment, without the demeanor of a queen at all, Yu Chi Lianqing and Nangong Wan'er glanced at each other proudly: "Princess, Niangniang must believe it, I'm afraid it won't be long before we have a good show." ”
……
The next day, Luo Qingluan waited for Wei Zhong, the housekeeper of the Lin Palace, to say that Chen Si and the two craftsmen had already finished the fine iron that Princess Chu had forged them, and asked Princess Chu to show what to do next.
When Luo Qingluan rushed to King Lin's mansion, he saw Chen Si and the others in the forging workshop, and sure enough, he saw a piece of silver-white fine iron in front of him. It was a long strip about a foot long and two inches thick, flat and smooth, full of weight between the silver flashes.
Luo Qingluan couldn't help but step forward to pick it up, and sure enough, it was heavy, she looked at it carefully, Chen Si's craftsmanship was really good, and this piece of fine iron was very well forged. And it only took one day to come out, and if everything went well, it was estimated that in another three or five days, she would be able to get the finished product.
Chen Si asked cautiously on the side, "Princess Chu, we have done our best for this piece of fine iron." It was supposed to be done this morning, but for some reason, it felt like it was going to be a lot of work. ”
He looked at Liu Mu next to him, who also nodded, with a hint of doubt.
According to their years of experience in forging, refining such a weight of refined iron, no matter how hard it is, can be completed in just one day's effort. But it took them an extra day and a half of effort to meet the requirements for this piece of fine iron, and they were a little puzzled.
This is actually the reason why Luo Qingluan let them integrate other metals into the iron ore.
This was selected by her according to the forging formula left by the ghost doctor's father, but if she wanted to tell Chen Si and the others the principle of it, Luo Qingluan herself couldn't understand it, she could only copy it according to what she remembered in her head.
The ruler is short, the inch is long, Luo Qingluan is a genius and smart, but after all, there are things that she is not good at, forging is her shortcoming.
So she wanted to use the knowledge she remembered to forge a more powerful divine weapon for Nalan Ye. It is not only necessary to test her choice, but also to see Chen Si's skills, as well as three points of luck.
Unable to explain the principle to them, Luo Qingluan smiled: "The two masters don't mind, this may be a coincidence, as long as it can be successful, then it's fine." ”
Since Luo Qingluan said so, he obviously didn't care that they had wasted time, so Chen Si naturally didn't dare to ask more, and only asked Luo Qingluan to tell them what they were going to do next.
The refining of steel represents the material, which is the most basic point of forging a divine weapon, if Luo Qingluan wants to forge the sword she has in mind, then she must also add other ingredients to the fine iron, that is, the alloy steel she knew in her previous life.
As for the extent to which this alloy steel can reach, Luo Qingluan is not sure.
She asked Wei Zhong: "In addition to these ores, has the second prince collected other things?" “
The names of these metals, Luo Qingluan knew that even if he said it, he was afraid that Wei Zhong and they would not understand it. However, she expressed it like this, and Wei Zhong really couldn't understand it for a while: "What Princess Chu said is, has the prince collected other ores?" ”
After thinking for a long time, Wei Zhong shook his head: "The prince wants to forge armaments, and he has already performed His Majesty, and the ore of the entire Western Chu has been transported to the capital, including the inventory that has been collected for many years in the treasury of the Ministry of Industry. ”
After listening to Wei Zhong talk for a long time, Luo Qingluan knew that what he was talking about was ordinary metals such as copper and iron, and it was absolutely impossible to make the alloy steel she wanted with these.
But if there is no way to add it, then the sword she wants will not be able to be completed, if the materials cannot improve the quality, then the forged long sword is afraid that it will be comparable to the quality of the batch forged by Nangong Yu last time, and it will not reach the level he wants to require.
Even if Luo is strange, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, there are no materials, and there are various forging methods in her mind, which will not work at all.
Do you have to give up like that? Luo Qingluan sat there and pondered.
Actually, it didn't take much metal to add to this piece of steel, and she was just forging a long sword, and she only needed a little bit of other rare metals, and that would be enough. It's just, even if it's a little bit, where is she going to find it?
Mining technology is not as advanced as in her previous life, and some of them are simply unexplored.
It's enough just to want little by little, but do you want to die halfway?
Suddenly, something flashed through Luo Qingluan's mind, if the underground minerals can't be mined, or they can't be mined, then what about the heavens?
She suddenly thought of one point, and that was an extraterrestrial meteorite.
These magical stones from outer space that fell to the realm of Western Chu through unimaginable methods must contain the rare metal components she needs. If you can refine it, even if it's not much, it should be enough.
The mood couldn't help but jump, Luo Qingluan seemed to see hope, and she immediately asked Wei Zhong.
"Is the princess asking about strange stones outside the sky?"
Wei Zhong didn't understand the name of the extraterrestrial meteorite that Luo Qingluan said, and asked tentatively, "If the princess is talking about the kind of big stone that fell from the sky, the villain has heard of it." ”
Whether it was a strange stone or a meteorite outside the sky, as long as it was something that Luo Qingluan wanted, she immediately asked, "Where is it?" ”
With a wry smile on his face, Wei Zhong bowed and said: "This kind of thing comes from heaven, this is a gift from God to our Western Chu Kingdom, and Your Majesty has always attached great importance to it. Although the prince has a noble status, but there are no strange stones outside the sky, if the princess wants, you might as well ask Your Majesty, maybe some of the treasures in the palace are not sure. ”
As long as there is, Luo Qingluan will definitely try to get it. She immediately left King Lin's Mansion and went straight to the palace.
Just finished dealing with political affairs, Nangong Qing has been very busy in the past two days, and he didn't even go to Queen Su Yi's side. This time I was resting in the warm pavilion, and it was rare to have a moment of leisure to relax for a while, but I didn't expect Luo Qingluan to come.
Although he has completely downplayed his feelings for Luo Qingluan, for Nangong Qingqing, Luo Qingluan is also his lifelong confidant, and he is naturally very happy to see her arrival. Nangong Qin smiled faintly, asked Luo Qingluan to sit down, and then said, "Why are you in such a hurry, but there is something important?" ”
In a hurry, Luo Qingluan even forgot to salute Nangong Qing, and there was no need to make up for it this time. She was not polite, and asked Nangong Qin directly: "I heard that there were strange stones falling from the sky in the Western Chu Kingdom before, I don't know if Your Majesty has heard of this?" ”
"Strange stones from the sky?" Nangong Qing paused slightly, but she didn't expect Luo Qingluan to ask about this, it seemed that her curiosity had flare up again. He nodded: "Yes, there is indeed such a thing, this strange stone from the sky was left by my father when he was still on the throne." But I remember that it seems that a few years ago, my father had already rewarded people for something. ”
"None?" Luo Qingluan was suddenly disappointed, "Could it be that there is only one strange stone outside the sky in the entire Western Chu?" Is there anything else? ”
Nangong Qing laughed dumbly: "The strange stone outside the sky is originally a gift from heaven, but it can be met but not sought, even if it has been like this once or twice since the founding of the Western Chu country for hundreds of years. Maybe there are still some folk collections, but as far as I know, the palace has only collected this one, and now there is really none. ”
Seeing Luo Qingluan's disappointed look, Nangong Qing became even more strange: "It's just a strange stone, although it is rare, but it is actually useless." If you want, I'll give it to you if I have it, but if you don't, there's no way. It's better for you to change to a different one, you can pick whatever you want in my inner library, you can do whatever you want. ”
Luo Qingluan was somewhat grateful for Nangong Qingqing's intentions, but this was not her purpose, and she didn't want to collect any rare treasures. Luo Qingluan shook his head: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, I just want the Strange Stone from the Outer Heavens, because there are some special effects, since there is none, then forget it." ”
Looking at Luo Qingluan's extremely disappointed face, Nangong Qing couldn't bear it: "Otherwise, I will go back and let people check to see who my father gave this strange stone to back then, and when I know, I will help you ask for face and ask him, what do you think?" ”
