This ship is too similar to the ship that Yuwen Chu wanted to build, but can such a big ship be built? Is it easy to use after it is built? These were Mingzhu's doubts, after all, in her cognition, she had never seen such a big ship before.

Caiyun guessed her doubts and said with a smile: "I've been on the mountain since I can remember, Master is old and loves to chatter and likes to tell stories to people, and the other senior brothers and sisters are impatient to listen and will find an excuse to run away." I am the youngest disciple of the master, and I don't dare to run away without a reason, so I can only listen to the master's nonsense.

Finally, one day, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I asked him to stop talking nonsense, and in order to prove that he was not talking nonsense, Master drew a drawing of this kind of ship to show me. The people on the lower floor are only responsible for rowing, and the people above are only responsible for fighting, each performing their own duties, not interfering with each other, fast and easy to use. As for gunpowder, I'm sorry I lied to you before, saying that I don't understand, in fact, Master also taught me this, I don't dare to say that I am as proficient as Master, but I definitely know a little bit more than you. ”

Caiyun said sorry, but in fact he didn't mean to be sorry at all: "I am very obedient and easy to be soft-hearted, so I often accompany the master, and the master pulls me to accompany him to do handicrafts, the two of us once built a ship like this together, of course the boat is not so big, but it is also very good, and it is also equipped with small artillery, maybe this thing is exactly what the princess wants." ”

Mingzhu believes that Caiyun and Shi Jiuqing must be more than just a boat together, but Caiyun said that she only built such a ship, so she will stop here, because greedy people often do not end well, and only when it is enough can the water flow for a long time. She sincerely saluted Caiyun and asked Caiyun, "What do you want?" As long as I can do it, I will do my best. ”

Caiyun smiled: "Master said that the weapon of great destruction can only be in the hands of people who are benevolent and have the ability to protect secrets, otherwise they will poison the living beings in the world and will be punished by heaven." After observing for so long, I think that His Royal Highness and the princess should belong to this kind of person, so I give this secret to the princess, if I can, I will never want others to know about me, and I know the truth of guilt. ”

Mingzhu was very embarrassed: "The problem of the ship can be solved, but the gunpowder this, you know, when we first went down the mountain, Mr. Jiu's hand was revealed, and many people saw it." Even if I don't mention you, people will think of you. ”

Caiyun said: "Then, at least let me not be disturbed." Also, His Royal Highness and the Princess have always treated me very well and never forced me, and I am very happy here, and I don't want to lose another home and companion. ”

"I'll do my best."

The two of them high-fived as an alliance, and Caiyun smiled: "The princess may not know, when the master asked me to follow you down the mountain, he once made a bet with the senior brother that the regent would send troops to attack the cliff, the senior brother thought it would, and the master thought it would." Because I am with you, you and the regent have hope, and the cliff is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it costs the people and money, and as long as he is cut off, it will not be easy for you to fight his idea. If he really had to make up his mind, he would have plenty of time to run away. ”

Mingzhu thought for a moment and asked, "People's greed never ends, what if we force you?" ”

Caiyun said with a firm gaze: "The reason why I am most liked by Master is because when I was a child, a senior brother wanted to force me to tell Master's secret, and I refused to tell it when I died, and that senior brother was finally thrown down from the cliff by the senior brother to feed the eagle." This means that as long as she doesn't want to, no one wants to force her.

"I'm so lucky that I got your blue eye by mistake." Mingzhu smiled and immediately started this matter: "Now let's draw, the big frame is here, and the details have to be drawn." Then I'll find someone to do the model, and you'll help him on my behalf, and that's fine, because it's not convenient for me to meet him at any time, and you can. ”

"That guy was the idiot from yesterday, right? Your Highness would be unhappy if you saw him often, wouldn't you? His Highness is also strange, it's good not to let you see that person, why let him in. Caiyun took Mingzhu's charcoal pen and dropped the first line on the paper.

Mingzhu couldn't explain Yu Wenchu's cautious eyes and pretense of generosity to outsiders, so he had to pretend not to hear Caiyun's words, and said to him: "You see those toys made of half-cuts, they are very delicately made, he has good craftsmanship, he is also very smart, and his mind is pure." ”

"It's really a good job, although it's not a good person, but I'm still very confident in his craft." Caiyun gave Ban Jian a pertinent evaluation and carefully drew a diagram of the big ship.

Mingzhu became an assistant on the side, helping to hand over a pen, paper, or something, there is something to do, time always flies, and when it is time to eat, Caiyun washes his hands and says goodbye: "I don't have the brainpower of the princess, I am already dizzy, please allow me to go back and rest for a while, and then come back and continue drawing." ”

Mingzhu left her to eat: "It's a lot of trouble to come and go, just eat here, Your Highness won't come to eat tonight." ”

Caiyun is not a person who twists, so he responded immediately. Mingzhu asked Xia Xue to send a message to Yu Wenchu, asking him to let Zhou Shuyi and them eat with him outside, and not to come in.

Yu Wenchu happened to be waiting for news from Jingli, and he had no intention of eating, so of course he didn't have any opinions.

After the meal, Caiyun played with the two children for a while, and then began to draw again, until the second watch, when the physical strength could not support it, he stopped, but he did not leave, and slowly wrote the gunpowder formula to Mingzhu. Mingzhu thanked and thanked her, and asked Dong Hui to send her back, and by the way, informed Yu Wenchu that she could come back.

Yu Wenchu joked with Mingzhu: "What are you doing hiding in the house?" Don't even want me to go home. If I hadn't known that your house was full of women, I would have to be sour. ”

Mingzhu was determined to surprise him, and did not tell him about Caiyun, so he hurriedly handed him hot soup and asked, "Is there any news from Jingli?" ”

Yu Wenchu smiled: "Su Lan has performed well, I will arrange for her to come back in a few days, but you have to be mentally prepared, the matter she was involved in is a big deal, although she escaped by luck, she can no longer be as beautiful as before." In the future, they can only stay in the backyard, and they can't go out easily. ”

It's already good to be able to survive, Mingzhu happily took Yu Wenchu's hand and shook it: "What about the eldest princess of Longsheng?" ”

Yu Wenchu was infected by her joy, and also rejoiced with her: "With her own son and husband, as well as close servants around her, she can't justify even if she is clever, and she can't escape the charges of collaborating with the enemy and treason, killing important ministers of the court, and framing you and me." Although the decree has not yet been made, she will definitely not survive. ”
