Seeing that the conversation between the two was at an impasse, even Runtu, who was usually slow to perceive, felt a little uncomfortable at the moment.

He took a deep breath and finally explained: "Madam, the general has not specifically explained this matter, so his subordinates cannot disclose military affairs to anyone at will. ”

Oh, it's like signing a non-disclosure agreement, even the closest people can't talk about that, right?

Zheng Quqi said he understood.

In fact, she didn't see it strangely, but suddenly said: "It's me who is reckless, I don't know anything, and I ask random questions to make trouble for you." ”

"It's not ......" Runtu obviously felt that Zheng Quqi was talking the opposite, yin and yang, tangled in how to express his meaning, and finally thought about it for a while, before he dared to say: "General, I attach great importance to my wife, he doesn't let his subordinates tell you about it, it's definitely for the good of my wife, please believe this." ”

Loyalty is his duty, sharing the worries of the Lord is what he should do, and he doesn't want to cause a gap between the general and the general's wife because of his silence.

Zheng Quqi was stunned, and he didn't know how to reply to his words for a while, let alone how to understand this sentence.

"You think so?"

She smiled casually.

But in the next second, Runtu's words made the arc of the smile on the corner of her mouth stagnate.

Runtu heard her disapproval, and he frowned slightly: "Madam, when you look at people, you don't look at them with your eyes, but with your heart." ”

She was in the carriage, her eyes falling on the rickety curtain and asked, "Why...... So? ”

Runtu clenched his fists, feeling that there were some words, and he was not unhappy: "Madam, I don't know if you know what the main responsibilities and scope of Runtu, the Xuanjia Cavalry Governor, are on the battlefield?" ”

She guessed that it should be a striker or something, but it was just a guess, not accurate.

"I don't know."

Runtu didn't sell it, and said directly: "It is the chief general who dispatches the guards, and my soldiers are marching and fighting outside, and they can charge and pay attention to the rear at any time, because the generals are all going to move with the army, and he, as the "center" of the entire army, must not have any mistakes, so the primary duty of me and the guards is essentially to protect the safety of the general, and it is his personal guard. ”

When Zheng Quqi heard this, his expression disappeared little by little, and finally he was silent and stunned.

Seeing that she seemed to understand, Runtu continued: "We are the general's sword and the general's shield, and I, the cavalry governor, are more like a piece of the general's armor to resist a fatal blow for him, but the general gave his own life-protecting armor to his wife, isn't this enough to explain anything?" ”

After Zheng Quqi listened, her nails gently tapped the plank, she was not completely led away by his words, although she was indeed shocked, she still had her own judgment and thoughts: "This is enough to show that it is useful for him to keep me." ”

As for what it was for, and what kind of thought this fancy came from, she couldn't guess it, and she didn't want to guess.

Seeing that Zheng Quqi didn't enter the oil and salt, and his heart was clear and empty, Runtu didn't say anything more.

He had seen many emotionally charged women, who would be desperate because of some special case or special part of a man, but it was the first time he had seen such a calm and self-controlled.

"Madam, please sit down, the mountain road is rugged, and there may be some bumps on the way." He reminded.

"Thanks for mentioning it, I'll take notice."

Along the way, no one between the two of them opened their mouths, in fact, as long as Zheng Quqi didn't deliberately talk, Runtu would never talk unless there was something necessary.

When she was about to reach the gate of the camp, Runtu put down Zheng Quqi in advance, and she herself entered the camp first, while he escorted her in the dark.

He did this completely according to Zheng Quqi's wishes, she wanted to disguise herself as an ordinary craftsman, so that no one would doubt her true origin.

Because he knew that there was moisturizing soil behind him, Zheng Quqi felt relaxed for the first time on this part of the way up the mountain.

There is a feeling that you don't have to be like a frightened bird, you need to be on guard at any time, whether someone is peeping, or sneak attacking, or ambushing, etc., a feeling of inexplicable tension and palpitation.

Although she had been trying to behave normally, she had long since lost a sense of normalcy.

Although all the life and death levels she had experienced before had turned into murder and seemed to have passed, those injuries and worries, fears, and difficulties in surviving day and night have not been forgotten.

Human beings are actually a creature that is easy to forget pain, which is not right, what is forgotten is the brain, but every knife in the past will be reflected in her unconscious behavior at some moment.

She has no sense of security, and she doesn't know when she will feel nervous and sensitive once she is alone or in a secluded environment.

But Yu Wensheng seemed to sense her uneasiness, and sent a Runtu, at first she was a little repulsed by him, but then she felt that such a person might be easier to get along with.

Because he is rigid and cold, like an unmoved stone, he doesn't like her, he doesn't hate her, she is just a task for him, a task that must be guarded.

And because of this, his existence is like a shadow, so that she has no scruples, she doesn't have to be vigilant, vigilant and deliberately deal with her, she just needs to be herself, and leave it to him behind her.

He told her, don't look at people with your eyes, but with your heart.

Actually, she understands what this sentence means.

She also understands that Yu Wensheng is attentive to her.

But because of this, she raked her hair and was very irritable.

She is a knowledgeable and self-aware person, she doesn't want to gamble her future on Yu Wensheng's sincerity, because ...... He's too dangerous.

She can't figure out his heart many times, and his identity is also very different from her, unattainable, she is not timid, but she really can't afford to lose.

What's more, compared to men, money is more reliable.

He was kind to her, no matter what the purpose of thought, she remembered it, and she would try her best to return it to him in the future.

She is emotionally lacking, she just wants to protect her family, and then when she earns money, she will not be stingy, she promised to support him, and she will give him a lot of money.

I remember watching a movie before, and the heroine in it said, I want a lot of love, and if not, a lot of money is good.

So she felt that she could create a lot of money for him.

Besides, he sheltered Fuxian and their Zheng family, although she was single, she would also help him protect Ye Guo together, so that Ye Guo would not be bullied by people from other countries.

——

After returning to the camp, Zheng Quqi met Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong, who seemed to have always been conjoined babies and stayed together at any time.

As soon as they saw her, their expressions changed, and then they actually squeezed out a smile and stepped forward.

"Ah Qing, where did you go last night? We've been looking for you for a long time, and we're afraid something will happen to you. Mu Gaoyi was the first to say hello.

Shi Hetong also said: "Yes, the Wei guards handed you over to us to take with us, this person is lost, we can't afford this responsibility." ”

Zheng Quqi's expression was calm, but he was not surprised by their "enthusiasm" today.

Come to think of it, this is the effect of calling Runqi Governor to bring a letter last night, they are suspicious of her identity, although they are suspicious and guessing, but on the other hand, they have scruples, and they dare not slack off easily.

Her character is a little arrogant, although she is not evil, but she is not easy to mess with.

"Master Shepherd, Master Craftsman, after I got off work last night, I went straight to my friend's place to stay, didn't I ask Governor Runqi to bring you a message for me?"

When they heard this, they said in their hearts, it was really her who moved Runqidu, and listening to her tone, it seemed very ordinary......

They wanted to ask which one of the camps was her "friend", a Wei guard, a Runqi Governor, and a "friend".

Although they had the heart to inquire with her, in view of the fact that they were not very familiar with each other, and they were not in a good mood yesterday, the two were arrogant for a while, so they made it difficult for them to snub her......

In short, find a way to make up for it first and repair the fragile relationship between them.

"Yes, yes, we met Runqi Governor later, and that's how we found out."

"Oh, that's it, by the way, am I still doing the work of a miscellaneous soldier today?" She asked.

Mu Gaoyi hurriedly said: "Yesterday I just wanted you to familiarize yourself with our environment here, today you don't have to do the things of miscellaneous soldiers, you can follow us to do things." ”

"Really?" Zheng Quqi said,

"Really, really."

Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong secretly glanced at each other, but they didn't smile.

They led her to a flattened clearing that they had applied to occupy, surrounded by a dark brown cloth to block out the outside world's view.

When Zheng Quqi passed by, he touched it with his upper hand, and felt that the texture was rough and hard, it should be woven of raw hemp, this kind of fabric, thick and strong wind resistance.

Shi Hetong asked: "Ah Qing, how is your wood art?" ”

This is to ask her what she is good at sawing, planing, cutting, cutting, and nailing.

"It's all right." She said modestly.

In the past, she replied honestly, and others thought she was bragging.

Now she has learned to be humble, but apparently others believe it.

"Are you all right?" Mu Gaoyi raised his eyebrows.

He gave Shi Hetong a mouthful and translated it, which meant very general.

Shi Hetong sighed secretly.

They have invited a living ancestor who can't help them to come back.

Also, a carpenter at the level of craftsmanship can only be able to get started?

Shi Hetong also shook his head, he raised his chin, tried not to be too disdainful, and said, "Otherwise, you go to the side to rest now, learn while watching, and then call you when the two of us need help later." ”

Knowing that they didn't look down on her, Zheng Quqi had no objection, she bowed her head: "Okay, I'll take a look at the side first, if there is anything you need help with, you just call me." ”

But Shi Hetong and Mu Gaoyi thought in their hearts, what else did they need to ask her to help with?

It is estimated that by the time she finishes a part, the two of them will have already completed today's plan.

The two of them are working on a thin cart on the unloaded timber.

They were looking at the design drawings and cutting the wooden parts on the construction platform they had built.

"Are you making cars?" Zheng Quqi suddenly asked.

The two of them were stunned and looked at her strangely.

"How do you know? Where do you see that? ”

"The curved piece of wood on the ground is used to make wheels, and the shaft sleeve ......" She counted these parts in detail, and every time she said the same, Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong were surprised.

"Y-How do you know that?"

Few ordinary craftsmen know how to make cars, because a car is not a carpenter can make it too much.

Under normal circumstances, even the simplest board car, which requires blacksmiths, public servants, and leather craftsmen, the overall production of the cart requires the car carpenter to have an overall planning and design for the production of the wooden car, and then hire relevant craftsmen to assist in building and assembling.

For a car, the whole process from manufacturing wheels to material selection, to parts production, assembly, and testing is extremely complex.

Therefore, they did not expect that a carpenter who was only a craftsman could be so familiar with the study of the fragments of car making?

Zheng Quqi stood up and naturally asked, "Can you show me the drawings you took?" ”

"You can still read the drawings?" Mu Gaoyi said strangely.

"Hmm."

Mu Gaoyi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shi Hetong, and he glanced at him.

If you think he is an ordinary person, you can't tell what kind of powerful family he is, learning carpenters is all for interest, if the family is rich and powerful, send it to a professional institution such as Jixia School for training, and it is not surprising that he can understand it.

Shi Hetong took the rolled up drawings and handed them over: "If you are interested, then take a look at it first, but our design drawings are more casual, and they are not the same as what the orthodox schools teach, if you can't understand ......"

Zheng Quqi took it and unfolded it to take a look.

Simple.

There are only assumptions, no specific scales, no theoretical data, and even the dimensions are only approximate estimates.

In this way, the post-production efficiency is greatly reduced.

Maybe it's because they're new, making cars for the first time, referring to other people's cars, to get these specious data, and they want to get a different and innovative one, and in the end it becomes this kind of work that is doing and groping at the same time, but also failing.

Today's craftsmen are basically in this mode of moving forward, they are different from Zheng Quqi, the "essence" of the survival of the fittest for nearly a thousand years has been absorbed by her, and she is standing on the shoulders of giants.

Her knowledge is a complete system, which is unimaginable for those who are still in the exploration stage.

"The car you're going to make is a carriage with a carport?"

"That's right."

"You want to make the wheels thinner so you don't get muddy when you walk on dirt roads?"

This is the technical point they are considering, and she, she can see it at a glance?!

"But you only considered one thing, and ignored the other possibility, the wheel teeth are easy to wear during driving, what if the teeth on both sides of the chisel are worn out and the spokes are loosened?"

"In addition, the depth of the mortise is very particular, if it is too shallow, it will shake and loosen when assembling the spokes, and if it is too deep, the spokes will be easy to break......"

After her insider's questions and explanations, although they listened to it in a fog, because they didn't understand, they only felt embarrassed and their faces were blue and red.

"Ah Qing, what you, you said, did you listen to others, or did you just talk nonsense?" Mu Gaoyi was a little annoyed and said angrily.

The mood of the two at the moment is undoubtedly lost and embarrassed, and at the same time, they are also shocked that Ah Qing is telling the story of building a car, even if it is nonsense, it is also a profound nonsense that makes people unsure of the truth or falsehood.

At least, the two of them were really fooled and had no words to refute.

Zheng Quqi raised his eyes: "Why don't you take a look at my car drawings?" ”
