"Okay, I want to try it out too." Chen Changfeng smiled and nodded.
If the shotgun is really successful, any short-sighted bastard who dares to challenge me in the future will be the one to take out the shotgun and make a fuss.
Make sure that bastard is covered in pockmarks.
"Your Highness, is this thing really useful?"
"It looks like a fire stick, and the shotgun you mentioned contains some small steel balls. If you throw this thing, it will only cause pain at most." The speaker was Mrs. Xu's female apprentice Li Ningshuang.
He is probably two or three years older than Chen Changfeng.
Tall and handsome in appearance.
Perhaps it was because he had been studying casting with Master Xu and stayed close to the stove for a long time, so his skin turned slightly bronze.
You can vaguely see muscles on the arms and lower abdomen.
Li Ningshuang is Master Xu's master of size. He can tell the exact size of anything at a glance and whether the forged weapons are defective.
"You really underestimated this thing." Chen Changfeng smiled slightly and already picked up the shotgun on the table.
It was more substantial than the shotgun in Chen Changfeng's memory, but the shotgun was meant to be held with two hands.
It's quite easy to hold it in your hand now.
"Prince, how do you want to try this?" Master Xu was also curious about how powerful this so-called shotgun was.
Chen Changfeng actually made Chen Changfeng give up making a repeating crossbow and make this thing first.
"There happens to be a big tree six meters in front of us. You all should give way and stand aside." Chen Changfeng pointed to the big tree in front of him and motioned to Master Xu's disciples to get out of the way.
But no one took action.
On the contrary, someone smiled and said: "Your Highness, it will be okay for us to stand here."
"Just try the power of this weapon."
Chen Changfeng glanced at Master Xu, who waved to his disciples.
Chen Changfeng didn't need to say anything anymore, those guys who didn't care about their lives stood aside one after another.
However, the words in his mouth still did not stop.
"What do you think your so-called shotgun, His Highness the Prince, can do? It has no blade, it's not long, and it doesn't hurt to hit anyone."
"Who knows, anyway, His Royal Highness is happy and the master agrees. There is nothing we can do."
"His Royal Highness just said he wanted to hit that tree. He wouldn't be planning to hit it with a shotgun..."
"No way……"
"boom--"
Master Xu's disciples were still doubting the power of the shotgun, but Chen Changfeng had already pulled the trigger.
A banging sound came from the yard.
"What happened?" Xiang'er heard the sound outside and thought the furnace had exploded in the workshop, so she rushed over.
But he found that everyone in the yard was staring in one direction blankly.
Xiang'er followed everyone's gaze and saw that they were all staring at a big tree in front of them.
Xiang'er felt a little strange, then walked to the tree and saw that the bark of the tree as big as the mouth of the well had been broken by something in five inches.
If you look closely, you will see that they are all round iron beads.
"Your Highness, are you okay? I just heard a loud noise outside..." Xiang'er ran back to Chen Changfeng again.
Chen Changfeng waved to Xiang'er with a smile on his face.
Looking at the beaten bark in front of him, Chen Changfeng knew that this shotgun was done!
"It's unbelievable. If this hits someone..." Master Xu looked shocked.
He knew the power of this shotgun from Chen Changfeng's mouth, but he only knew and understood it.
I have never seen the true power of a shotgun.
did not expect……
Master Xu's disciples were silent at this moment.
Many people also showed fear.
If they had been standing in front of the tree just now, their bodies would probably have been penetrated by now.
After all, it was a big tree with a thick mouth, and the bark of such a tree was broken.
How can their bodies be harder than tree bark?
"Master Xu, everyone, I have thanked you for the appearance of this shotgun. As a token of my gratitude, here are some weapons blueprints for you. In addition, I will buy another property for you in the capital. If you are tired of staying in the East Palace,
, I want to go out for a walk and have a place to go." Chen Changfeng gave Xu Fuzi some drawings he drew in his spare time.
He also promised them that he would buy a property for each of them.
There is no benefit to doing something, so who would waste time on it?
Master Xu only wanted weapons blueprints, but his disciples were still young, so getting a property in the capital was naturally the most gratifying thing for them.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"It is an honor for us that His Highness the Crown Prince is so generous."
Master Xu's disciples spoke one after another, and Master Xu himself also looked at Chen Changfeng more.
He secretly thought that this prince was both capable and generous, and knew how to win people's hearts. In the future, the Ming Empire would not necessarily be in charge.
Xiang'er still hasn't realized what happened.
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw Liu Xi, the eunuch beside the emperor, walking hurriedly from a distance.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, your Majesty hastily summoned His Highness into the palace to prepare for a competition with the Da Chu envoy." Liu Xi shouted to Chen Changfeng from a distance.
Everyone's expression changed when they heard this.
Chen Changfeng wrapped the shotgun in a piece of cloth and frowned slightly.
The envoy from Da Chu came to the Ming Empire just today, and they have to compete so soon.
It seems that the previous humiliation of the Chu envoys made the Chu Empire very angry.
Now they are all eager for revenge.
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Chen Changfeng nodded.
…
At this moment, in the Tai Chi Hall of the Ming Dynasty.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair, with hundreds of civil and military officials on both sides. The second and third princes also gathered here.
The third prince's face looked a little ugly.
After he woke up and found out that he had been knocked unconscious on the ring by Chen Changfeng, the third prince felt that his life had become gloomy.
He, the majestic God of War in the Ming Empire's army, was knocked unconscious by that loser Chen Changfeng in front of so many people.
If the generals under his command had not been urging him to be patient, the third prince would have rushed to the East Palace with his sword and angrily beheaded Chen Changfeng.
Among the civil and military officials, there were also envoys from other countries.
They all knew that today the Chu delegation was going to have a civil and military competition with the Ming Empire.
And the stakes are even more jaw-dropping.
It is even related to the survival of the Ming Empire.
There was no reason for them to miss such a grand event.
And standing at the center was the envoy from the Chu Empire.
There are hundreds of people, headed by a man and a woman, namely Xiang Ying, the crown prince of the Chu Empire, and Xiang Qingqing, the third princess of the Chu Empire.
Xiang Ying has clear eyes and looks like a Confucian scholar, but has a unique temperament.
The way he raises his hands and feet seems to stand out from the crowd.
Xiang Qingqing is petite in stature, but has a beautiful body.
There is a gleam in his eyes from time to time, and one glance at him will tell you that he is not to be underestimated.
The Emperor of the Ming Empire sat on the dragon throne and looked at the two people in front of him carefully.
He also compared it with the second and third princes in front of him.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, the emperor could also feel that compared with the two great Chu people in front of him, although the second and third princes were also excellent, they were still a little behind.
As for that traitor Chen Changfeng...
Hey, why hasn’t that traitor come over yet?
Didn't he die in bed?
I heard that he had been singing and singing every night for ten days, and if he died suddenly, where would he put his old face as an emperor?
The emperor didn't know why, but when he thought of Chen Changfeng, he felt that he was a traitor.
He even kept thinking the worst about him.
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the foreign minister is Xiang Ying, the crown prince of the Chu Empire. By order of our Majesty the Emperor of the Chu Empire, we are conducting a civil and military competition with the civil and military talents of the Ming Empire."
"Previously, foreign ministers heard that our advance envoy from Chu was humiliated for no reason at the Ming court."
"Today's competition is, firstly, to exchange academic knowledge in civil and military affairs, and secondly, to seek justice for our envoy from Chu."
"If there is any offense in the future, please forgive me, His Majesty the Ming Emperor." Xiang Ying, the crown prince of Chu, said slowly.
His voice was calm and neither fast nor slow, showing that he was full of confidence. This chapter has been completed!
