Li Xinwen quietly came to Jiang Fuxue and said nervously: "Xue'er ......"

"Sister Xinwen, Xue'er wants you to stay~" Jiang Fuxue looked at Li Xinwen blankly.

Li Xinwen was puzzled: "Sister can't help but go back......"

Jiang Fuxue was stunned for a moment, and her heart was depressed.

Isn't it a loss for yourself?

Li Xinwen added: "However, my sister can come back within a year at the earliest, and then do one more thing for Xue'er!" ”

Jiang Fuxue smiled at this time: "Xue'er is waiting for you~"

In the convoy, the talented women from Da Chu said goodbye to Liang Xiao one after another.

Hengjiang Siyan, who has not yet allowed people, led by Ye Hongxue, has a wandering eye, his eyes are not far from Liang Xiao for a moment, and he said in unison: "There will be a period in the future of the Marquis of Lanling~"

The officials of the family behind Zhuge Hui saw it in their eyes, and their beards trembled with anger and gritted their teeth.

In the past, when they sent off the envoys of Great Chu, none of the children in their clan were treated like this.

There are so many talented women in Chu, and they all secretly send autumn waves to Liang Xiao.

This Liang Xiao is really a public enemy of men!!

After Gongsun Yue and Li Xinwen said goodbye with tears, they watched the convoy go away.

Now, her helper only has four cousins.

The Sword Clan has an extraordinary status in the rivers and lakes, and as the Sword Sect's Sword Canglang, there are also a large number of chivalrous followers under her command, and they can listen to her dispatch.

But in the face of Liang Xiao, the knights led by Jian Canglang played a limited role.

Liang Xiao watched Xing Feng go away, feeling melancholy.

Zhuge Hui is a senior, and Duan Yunchong is a confidante.

As for Zhuge Cheng and other younger generations, they belong to the ancient scholars who have rules and regulations.

In his life, he may only have a real bosom friend like Xing Feng, but unfortunately the two of them are their own masters.

If the situation changes, maybe we will meet each other again.

After Xing Feng left, the major families celebrated.

There is one less person in the capital who is beneficial to Liang Xiao.

Without Xing Feng's support, if the Great Chu people in the capital want to support Liang Xiao, they have to weigh it carefully.

In the imperial study, Liang Xiao and Zhuge Hui sat opposite Duan Yunyi together, holding a list of officials of the Ordnance Supervisor in their hands to understand the situation.

"The people of the ordnance supervisor are being replaced one after another, and when you come back from Lanling, you can complete a complete blood exchange, and then you will be specially guarded by Xuanwei, so you don't have to worry about leaking secrets." Duan Yunyi explained.

At the beginning, Liang Xiao strongly advocated the exchange of blood for the weapons superintendent.

However, this kind of organization specializing in the production and preservation of weapons has a complex personnel structure, and it is not easy to replace it, so Duan Yunyi can only do his best to arrange it.

It wasn't until Zhuge Hui took out the design of the repeater that Duan Yunyi realized that the exchange of blood was imminent.

She vaguely understood that Liang Xiao, like Zhuge Hui, intended to improve the weapon.

Liang Xiao said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister hopes that the ordnance supervisor can divide a part of the reliable craftsmen, and in the future, he can go to the land of Yanyun with the minister to study new technologies at any time." ”

The sisters and Zhuge Hui were stunned at the same time.

Liang Xiao's implication couldn't be more obvious.

But a state and county have the privilege of being an ordnance supervisor, and it already smells of secession.

"I do support this matter, but the ministers of the DPRK and China are only afraid of ......" Duan Yunyi was a little embarrassed.

Zhuge Hui pondered for a moment and proposed: "Your Majesty, you will be outside, and the king's order will not be accepted. With Liang Xiao's potential, it is not difficult to stay in the capital to enjoy all the glory and wealth, make steady progress, and gain fame and fortune. Since he has the heart to fight against Beihu, the imperial court should give him enough support. After all, he is the grandson of the Marquis of Lanling, and strictly speaking, he can be regarded as a descendant of the Martial Saint. ”

With Zhuge Hui's support, Duan Yunyi understood and immediately pushed the boat down the river and said, "Quasi-play." When you take up your post in the future, I will allow you to oversee all personnel appointments and dismissals, military transfers, and even life and death powers under your rule. ”

But in his heart, Duan Yunyi was still a little curious.

In other words, it is impossible for the old prime minister to agree to such a request, even if it is his own son, because he must avoid suspicion.

Liang Xiao was moved in his heart and immediately thanked him.

One of the keys to the backwardness of ancient times was the means of communication.

From the capital to Yanzhou, even if it is 800 miles expedited, it will take about three days, and the round-trip time will be doubled, and it is easy to delay the fighter.

Pigeons, which are easily lost or hunted, are not suitable for sending confidential letters.

He must have enough power to self-determine and self-research in order to cope with all situations.

Of course, Zhuge Hui also knew that he had no need to rebel at all, after all, he was actually a member of the Great Zhou clan.

The appearance of the old man Shizu is very similar to that of father and son, which corroborates the secret that Zhuge Hui told him.

Duan Yunyi didn't seem to know about it yet, but she even planned to choose the heirs from him and Duan Yunsleeve to succeed to the throne, and it was all said that he, the future Great Zhou concubine, had no need to rebel.

Liang Xiao opened the few drawings he had placed on the table and explained, "Before that, Your Majesty can arrange reliable personnel to try to make a brand new bow and arrow. ”

Duan Yunyi and Zhuge Hui's gazes fell on the drawings at the same time.

They are two bows of different shapes and materials, but the length of each bow is close to the height of a human being.

"New bow?"

Liang Xiao explained: "This is the 'longbow' and 'big bow' that the minister has researched and improved according to the principle, if it can be produced normally, the power will be extraordinary!" The longbow should have an effective range of more than 200 paces, and the great bow should have an effective range of more than 150 paces, but the close-range lethality is even higher than that of the longbow. ”

The two of them looked at each other with burning eyes and some anticipation.

"The prime minister is proficient in tactfulness, what do you think?" Duan Yunyi asked anxiously.

Zhuge Hui observed the two drawings, and could not hide his excitement: "The minister thinks that he must try, even if he fails, it will only cost a little, but if the double bow can be as Liang Xiao said, my country's military strength will be greatly improved!" I have a hunch that these new processes are feasible! ”

Duan Yunyi was full of anticipation, and couldn't help but be curious: "Liang Aiqing knows a lot about the Great Zhou weapons?" ”

"Shouldering the hatred of the country and the family, I dare not understand." Liang Xiao said without thinking.

The "longbows" and "great bows" he provided were actually British longbows and Manchurian bows.

These two bows and arrows are the pinnacle of the era of cold weapons, and they are made of different materials.

There are also a lot of yew trees in the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which he has tested, and its hardness and toughness are suitable for making bows.

As for the material of the Manchurian bow, it was much easier to obtain than yew wood.

The power of the bow and arrow greatly affects the combat effectiveness of an army.

Zhuge Hui looked at several other drawings of large weapons and armor, and bowed slightly: "It's really a genius!" Your Majesty, the minister will go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to wait first, hoping that Liang Xiao can come to the Prime Minister's Mansion later! ”

Duan Yunyi's heart was in turmoil.

She had told Zhuge Hui just now that she had something she wanted to talk to Liang Xiao about.

After seeing Zhuge Hui leave, Duan Yunyi was a little nervous in his heart.

The atmosphere in the study was rather awkward.

"Your Majesty has something to say?"

Duan Yunyi said earnestly: "That night, the words you said to Xing Gongzi can't be taken outside to say it, so as not to cause complications." Just because I and the Imperial Sister believe in you doesn't mean that other courtiers can trust you......"

"I know." Liang Xiao nodded solemnly.

Duan Yunyi hesitated for a moment, then added with a bit of trill: "I know that it is difficult to find a confidant, and after Xing Gongzi returns to China, you will inevitably feel sorry and even sad." In the future, if you have anything to say to me and the imperial sister, I am willing to be your confidant...... Well, just a confidant like Gongzi Xing. ”
