Chapter 45: Gunpowder and Stone Throwers
Her Royal Highness Princess Qingluan?
Chu Junyan understood, no wonder he was so arrogant and unreasonable, it turned out to be a member of the royal family.
The only daughter of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty today, she has been loved by thousands of people since she was a child.
A sneering light flashed from Chu Junyan's eyes, he put the box away, looked at the girl calmly, and saluted.
"You're so stingy, where have I really seen the mask in the box, and it's valuable? Princess Qingluan looked at Chu Junyan dissatisfiedly and asked.
"You are Her Royal Highness the princess, what I have in my hand can't get into your eyes, maybe I will sweep your Yaxing, I can't afford it then. Chu Junyan straightened up and said.
If you count it up, this princess is still Chu Junyan's half-sister.
"Your tone seems to be dissatisfied with me?" Princess Qingluan leaned forward, and the girl's intuition was still very accurate.
She felt that Chu Junyan's attitude towards herself was very strange.
said that Chu Junyan was respectful, but it seemed that there was something in the words and a little hostile.
said that he didn't respect the princess, and Chu Junyan had already done all the etiquette he should have.
Could it be that he provoked him when he was inadvertently in the past.
It's impossible, people who have provoked it, Princess Qingluan will have more or less an impression.
Princess Qingluan confirmed that she was meeting Chu Junyan for the first time, so where did the hostility come from?
"Don't dare, don't dare. Chu Junyan shook his head.
Dongfang Wei, who was kneeling on one knee, also looked at Chu Junyan with a strange face, and the latter's tone was clearly hostile.
If it weren't for the hostility, how could the master of Dongfang Wei's heart have a cold attitude towards such a beautiful girl as Princess Qingluan?
"Qingluan, are you naughty again?"
Someone reached out and pulled back the curtain and walked in slowly.
The conversation inside can be heard by the people outside.
"The Great Prince. ”
Seeing the person walking in, Dongfang Wei was shocked. His father didn't tell him that today's banquet, the eldest prince and Princess Qingluan would come.
"Get up. The young man known as the Great Prince beckoned and made Dongfang Wai stand up.
What he was really interested in was Chu Junyan: "I have also seen the design drawings of the Yuanrong crossbow, and it is indeed very good." The Tang Dynasty is really fortunate to have people like you who think about the country and the people. ”
Chu Junyan raised his eyebrows, it was really lively, even the eldest prince came.
Perhaps, the events of the year are inseparable from the eldest prince or his mother and other figures.
"I don't dare to do it for the country and the people, I'm just an ordinary person who comes from a remote village to practice. I haven't seen the world or seen money, so I just exchanged the Yuanrong crossbow for some money to spend it. Chu Junyan arched his hand and responded with no saltiness.
"How can you speak, and you still don't make amends to the eldest prince?" Dongfang Wei frowned, pretending to reprimand Chu Junyan, but in fact he wanted to protect him, Chu Junyan's attitude made Dongfang Wei's heart tremble.
This is the eldest prince, although he has a good temper among the princes, it does not mean that he is a person without a temper.
"It's okay, it's okay, it should be. However, there is a country first, and then there is a home. No matter what your original intention is, it is a good thing for the country and the people. Of course, saying that it is for the country and the people is a slogan. When the people are fed, the world is full. "The eldest prince is not angry.
Chu Junyan was stunned, but the eldest prince's reaction and opinions were a little different from what he thought.
When the people are fed, the world is full.
can have this kind of thought, it seems that the royal family of the Tang Dynasty is not so rotten that it is incurable.
Chu Junyan, who grew up in Luoshui Village since he was a child, knows very well that especially those days when the emperor was far away from the mountains and ravines.
The lives of the people can only be said to be barely surviving.
There are also mountain bandits and thieves, and those government yamen will not do things for the people, and they will all eat red faces.
Chu Junyan thought that the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, and when he saw this great prince, he understood that it was not the case.
From seeing Princess Qingluan and the eldest prince, not only them, but also the six princes who met at the underground auction.
Chu Junyan has hostility in his heart, he has witnessed the poverty of remote mountain villages, and has experienced being oppressed by the dark royal family and his mother to the end of the world, it is impossible for him to treat the royal family calmly.
"The design of the Yuan Rong crossbow can't be done if you don't have a pretty good foundation. Is there something better in you?" asked the eldest prince with a gentle smile, his eyes full of cunning.
"Brother Huang, there is a ...... in his box" Princess Qingluan pointed behind Chu Junyan.
Chu Junyan coughed dryly, he took out a box and put it in front of the eldest prince: "Inside is my latest design." ”
"No......" Princess Qingluan stomped her feet, the box that Chu Junyan was holding just now was clearly not this.
"Yes. Chu Junyan glanced at Princess Qingluan, a little cold.
Princess Qingluan shrunk her neck, and the coldness in her eyes made her feel worried as a princess.
The matter of the cat mask, Princess Qingluan will say that it is familiar.
After all, it was the person who killed the elite army of the 100,000 Golden Sword Dynasty with a single sword, and that mask was the only evidence that could find the mysterious master.
According to Chu Junyan's guess, it is estimated that many people in the imperial capital know about the existence of that cat mask.
Not to mention, the great prince in front of him.
Chu Junyan couldn't reveal that he was a mysterious person wearing a cat mask so early, and his current ability couldn't cope with this identity.
Opening the box, Dongfang Wai was also very interested in coming over.
"On the drawings are gunpowder recipes and stone throwers, and the functional effects are recorded. Chu Junyan said.
"Is this thing called gunpowder really that magical? And this stone thrower, wonderful!"
The eldest prince took the drawings, only looked at them a few times, and his face was full of smiles.
Chu Junyan glanced at the angry Princess Qingluan again, and this chick was still his half-sister.
Fortunately, the eldest prince's attention was diverted by the drawings, so he didn't ask Princess Qingluan what she hadn't finished.
"God is not magical, just try it. Chu Junyan said confidently.
Chinese civilization, how can this backward dynasty be questioned?
Even if he changed his body and changed the world, Chu Junyan was still proud of his identity as a Chinese.
"Good, good. ”
The eldest prince was very happy, he originally planned to test whether there were any good things in Chu Junyan, but he didn't expect that there really was. Putting the drawings in the box, he said, "I will bring back the gunpowder and the stone thrower to show my father, and if it is really that magical, I will definitely reward you." ”
Father?
The eldest prince actually wants to bring it back to the emperor to see?
Chu Junyan's mind turned sharply, but the eldest prince had already handed over the box to the people outside.
In desperation, Chu Junyan could only say: "If the gunpowder and stone thrower satisfy Your Majesty, I hope that they can be handed over to the Jinding Chamber of Commerce to do." ”
"Don't worry. ”
The eldest prince patted Chu Junyan on the shoulder, this is a talent, and he should be used by the dynasty.
After saying a few words, the eldest prince left with Princess Qingluan with a smile.
Before leaving, Princess Qingluan glanced at Chu Junyan hatefully, there would be someone who would not give face to the princess so much.
And Chu Junyan dared to stare at himself with his eyes!
