【Chapter 101】Secondment

"You remember it clearly." Lu Chen's voice was very cold, "But when you made this thing, why didn't you think about it at all?" He said, setting aside the thousand-machine crossbow with some disgust.

Yu Moji noticed that although Lu Chen's expression was full of anger, the movements of his hands were very light, as if he was careful not to damage her long-cherished work.

So although she was trembling like a hairless quail squatting on the muzzle of a shotgun, she couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic in her heart.

Yu Moji wasn't afraid that Lu Chen would break this thousand-machine crossbow.

She was sure that what she had made wasn't so delicate. When designing this thousand-machine crossbow, she put a lot of thought into making sure that the weapon was reliable enough in the harshest environments, and made some cushioning designs that would not be as cumbersome as possible.

Moreover, in order to ensure the simplicity of the design of the entire weapon, the smoothness of the appearance and the lightness of use, the ink marks deliberately only protect the relatively large positions such as crossbow arms and crossbows, which are difficult to repair. For the more critical and more vulnerable parts such as the lookout and the crossbow machine, she took a more radical, if not laissez-faire, approach from the usual thinking of the Yanshi, which was to reduce the use of protective devices that could add a lot of weight and were not very effective in real defense, and instead establish a more convenient mechanism for repair.

Based on this line of thinking, Yu Moji deliberately displayed these parts directly in front of the eyes of the people who used the Thousand Machine Crossbow on a large scale. In this way, if a component is damaged, the user can easily determine whether it needs to be repaired or replaced. And for this thousand-machine crossbow, as long as the person who uses it has a little foundation in the science of armor, it is not difficult to do this kind of maintenance work on the battlefield.

Despite his confidence in his work, Yu Moji was still moved by Lu Chen's concern that he couldn't hide in his anger.

Yu Mochen refused to believe it, as a teacher, Lu Chen, who had led her all the way to the present, couldn't see all the considerations she had when making this thousand-machine crossbow. Because of this, she saw from this small action that Lu Chen cherished such imperfect works as much as she did.

She even noticed that Lu Chen could keep the Thousand Machine Crossbow and other interesting designs that he had kept in this small room all along. It was difficult for Yu Moji to tell whether Lu Chen was satisfied with what she had made, or if she simply didn't want people passing by outside to notice the Thousand Machine Crossbow, but in either case, she felt very grateful.

She was originally at a loss for what to do under Lu Chen's sudden rage. But now she has slowly reacted, and Lu Chen's anger may be out of concern and love for her.

"Teacher." Yu Moji finally opened his mouth slowly. She lowered her head and said cautiously, "It's me who is wrong...... Her mouth, which had always been a little clumsy, finally had a little enlightenment at this moment, "Don't be angry with yourself." ”

Lu Chen's cold and hard expression seemed to have eased a little.

His anger was indeed made of wax, and when he saw some effect, he got a slight reaction with a temperature, and it would melt on its own.

"Come on." Lu Chen put away his anger, turned to show a little helplessness, and said, "You know that you are wrong now—why were you so careless before?" ”

Yu Moji recruited from the truth, "I originally thought that maybe no one would care about these petty designs." ”

"You kid, you're always too unconfident in yourself." Lu Chen looked at her helplessly, sighed, and said, "Don't you have any self-awareness of your own ability?" ”

Yu Mojin struggled for a while, feeling that silence and guessing at the moment might not bring any good results, so he had to ask hard, "Shiren, are you praising me or scolding me?" ”

Lu Chen almost laughed, shook his head, and said, "Praise you?" How else can I praise you? A man who makes a career designing armor weapons does not have enough prediction of his own abilities - it is more of a dangerous act than a humble one. ”

When Yu Moji heard this, he immediately looked at Lu Chen at a loss.

Of course, she knew that what she had made was not bad, and her reaction at the most critical moment was enough to show that she had enough confidence in this Thousand Machine Crossbow to believe that it was absolutely reliable.

But she really rarely thought of what Lu Chen said.

Lu Chen continued, "Especially at this time, the DPRK and China are particularly sensitive to these matters. What the imperial court feared the most was that the Yanshi underestimated the lethality of the weapon, or even concealed it. The weapons that were originally used to attack foreign enemies, in turn, posed a threat to the imperial court, and it was the last thing anyone wanted to see. It is inconvenient for him to say it explicitly, so he can only point to it, "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty, you should understand this truth." You should have heard about the eldest princess. If you leave a truth for people with ulterior motives, it will be difficult for you to turn over in the future. ”

What he said was not subtle, Yu Moji understood, nodded, and bowed, "The teacher is for my good." I understand. ”

Although the two of them had reconciled in a few words, all the things that Yu Mozhen had done secretly and privately related to the armor and weapons could not continue no matter what. She had a task that she had finally persuaded Lu Chen to hand back to her, that is, to continue to improve and design the small mechanism that looked harmless to humans and animals. Even such an innocuous little task was quickly taken back by Lu Chen.

What is the thing in the Council that is not related to the armor weapon? The current situation in the imperial capital has simply made up its mind, and it is necessary to send the women who are easy to make some achievements home to do laundry, cook and take the children.

Yu Mochen knew that Lu Chen was protecting her, but understanding is understanding, after encountering this new round of blows, all the resources she had finally obtained were deprived again, and she was still a little sad in her heart. Yan Zheng deliberately teased her several times, but Yu Moji was in no mood to pay attention to it, at most he squeezed out a sincere smile and sent it to Yan Zheng.

Later, on a few occasions, Yan Zheng even planned to trick Yu Moji into a place like the Little Star Picking Platform, so that she could find an opportunity to do some training that she had always wanted to pick up again. For this kind of rude approach that completely disregards the current situation, Yu Mojin finally couldn't bear it anymore and directly blasted this guy away - even if he was well-intentioned, but at this time, it was undoubtedly chaotic.

In the final analysis, Yan Zheng can ignore the ban of the imperial court and help her sincerely, to a large extent, because Yan Zheng has the capital to do what she wants, but she doesn't; If the incident happens, Yan Zheng may not be punished in any way, but Yu Moji is likely to be devastated.

Teachers and friends have the heart to help her, but she can only stay in the trough.

This made Yu Moji a little depressed.

For now, it seems that there is only one way to wait.

But Yu Moji didn't intend to sit still. She didn't wait for today's results.

At this point, her hands were almost completely restrained, and the only thing she could completely control was her brain. So every day when she was doing all the boring, stupid, useless work for Yanshi, her mind kept recalling all the things she had learned since the day she came into contact with the Yanshi Studies.

These are all very practical knowledge, and even though Yu Moji has no practical opportunity now, he is absolutely unwilling to forget a single bit of knowledge.

After all, this is a precious treasure that she has worked so hard to obtain. Even if they are forced by the current situation to carefully store them in their own cellars, they cannot be allowed to rot. She didn't know if she had any chance of continuing to gain access to the riches, and even suspected that the Cardinals had abandoned the long-term plan to send her to the depths. Therefore, she cherishes everything she has.

Yu Mojian had been in a stalemate with this situation of no benefit, until one day, through Lu Chen, she received a letter sent back to the Cardinal by Yuan Yizhi.

Yuan Pingzhi's letter did not say it explicitly, but the seemingly business-like narratives between the lines all revealed the fact that he was still near the Jiayuan River at this time.

Yu Moji roughly calculated, Yuan Zhizhi hadn't returned to the Cardinal for a month or two. Although she knew that Yuan Pingzhi and Chai Jingliu definitely had a deep relationship, she also felt that something was wrong.

In the past, no matter how tense the war in the south was, Yuan Zhizhi would also return to the imperial capital from time to time to report on his work, report, and participate in round after round of temple calculations. It was strange for a man of his rank, not a low rank, to leave the Cardinal for so long without a major war.

And the reason why this letter was handed to Yu Moji was because Yuan Zhizhi found a reason related to the local customs and asked the cardinal to secondment Yu Moji, who had a foreign background.

Yu Moji couldn't laugh or cry.

Her ultimate expectation for herself is to become a Yanshi who eats by her ability. However, including Yuan Pingzhi and Lu Chen, the people of the Cardinal Council sent her back and forth, back and forth, and always used the absurd reason of being born.

Her background, which is very embarrassing on both sides of Daqi and Tusu, may be too rare in an institution at the level of the Cardinal, and she actually seems to be expensive.

After all, Yuan Zhizhi is also the object of cultivation in the imperial capital, and people are not in the imperial capital, but what they say still has weight.

With the plummeting status of Yu Moji today, there is no way to use the pan-sun kite anymore. However, the long journey along the way also gave her enough opportunities to adjust her emotions.

Due to various encounters in the past, Yu Mochen actually had some resistance to Jiayuanjiang in his heart. But she thought about it, and she couldn't make a name for herself by staying in the Cardinal; On the contrary, if you leave the imperial capital, you may be able to steal some space to move forward. Considering this, she also forcibly packed up the thousand rejections of the Jiangshan boat in her heart, changed cars and horses all the way, and headed towards the direction where Yuan Yizhi was, little by little.

But when she arrived at the last station, she still didn't see Yuan Pingzhi's figure.

She only got a handwritten letter left by Yuan Zhizhi early.

Yuan Pingzhi actually asked her to meet her directly on the river.
