Young Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief and glared at the little cute girl who was shrinking her neck again. "Smelly girl, if you hadn't hit the muzzle of the gun, would your father and I have wasted half of our lives?"
Everyone else has to pay his debts to his father, so why did he give birth to such a cheating girl when it was his turn!
"Why are you still standing here? Go change your clothes quickly. When you get busy, you will go out and go crazy without even seeing you. I'll take care of you when you're done!"
"oh!"
The little kids suddenly turned into beasts and ran towards their respective rooms. I don't know whether they went to change clothes. Anyway, Mr. Liu's majestic image as a father was established.
"Please politely, please come this way!"
"It's really not me who indulges them. I've been busy these days and I don't have time to discipline them. They are all mothers like Yun'er and they don't know how to discipline them properly!"
"Don't worry, I will give Yun'er and the others a good scolding after the discussion is over. Let them know what family law is."
The Queen glanced at Young Master Liu gently: "Oh? Let's not say whether you are willing to let it go or not. The main thing is do you have the ability? It's not yet certain who will discipline whom by then!"
"Don't talk too much, or you may capsize!"
"The only one who will suffer at that time will be myself!"
Young Master Liu didn't expect that the Queen would not save any face for him, so he could only change the subject with a smile.
“Let’s talk about business first, talk about business first!”
After tea, the two of them arrived in the study. Liu Mingzhi pulled out a chair for the Queen: "Sit down, this is our own home, you're welcome!"
The Queen leaned on the chair and sat down in a comfortable posture, looking a little lazy and comfortable. She casually took out a letter from her sleeve and threw it on the table in front of Young Master Liu.
"I have given birth to a child for you, are you being polite to me?"
Young Master Liu looked at the letter the Queen threw in front of him in confusion: "This is?"
The Queen sneered and looked at Young Master Liu with bright eyes and resentment: "The attack was three hundred artillery pieces and one thousand shells. Duke Dingguo is so generous!"
"I and Yue'er have begged you so hard that they didn't even let go, so you can give us one or two cannons."
"You are quite generous to your little goblin junior brother. You are very willing to give up three hundred doors. What benefits has that little goblin given you?"
"Promise yourself?"
"I've promised you so many times, but why haven't you let go?"
"What's the matter? The little goblin is prettier than me, and can he play better than me?"
"uh-huh"
Young Master Liu coughed twice to relieve the awkward atmosphere, and gently picked up the letter in front of him, opened it, and started reading. After a while, Young Master Liu put down the letter and clasped his hands on his chest, looking at the Queen quietly.
"You're careful enough. Even the time is exactly right. Can you tell me where you got the news?"
"Let me, this young master, a lamb who has dabbled in a lot of fog, wake up."
The Queen stood up slowly, turned around, walked to Young Master Liu, and gently sat down in Young Master Liu's arms. She put her jade arms around Young Master Liu's neck and blew a breath of fragrance into him.
"Do you think it's possible? I spent so much money to lay so many hidden stakes, how could I tell you!"
Liu Mingzhi hugged the Queen's plump waist without hesitation: "Aren't you afraid that this young master will dig up the ground and turn Yingzhou and Fuzhou upside down?"
The Queen smiled softly, put her phoenix head on Young Master Liu's shoulder and rubbed it for a moment, then found the most comfortable position and leaned against it.
"You are not afraid of mobilizing troops and wasting money and people. Just investigate thoroughly. That old guy Li Zheng has planted many spies around me. I know it very well, but I will never dig them out. Do you know why?"
Liu Mingzhi was silent for a while and said quietly: "The maggot of the tarsus."
"Yes, this can be considered a tacit understanding between me and that old guy Li Zheng."
"Kill one and then another, why bother? Just pretend you can't see it!"
"Are you subtly telling me that there is no need to dig out the hidden piles you buried in Yingzhou?"
The Queen snorted lazily, and pecked Young Master Liu's face with her cherry lips: "It's up to you what you want. It's your business to dig or not. I don't ask you politely. As long as you have the ability, you can do it at any time. Let's continue now.
Talk about artillery."
"Three hundred artillery pieces, one thousand shells, and one hundred thousand troops to help. We can just say polite words. Why should we leave such a good thing to the little goblin in Huyan Palace?"
"Liu Mingzhi, in your heart I am not as trustworthy or important as that little goblin? What do you think of me?"
"I can't even figure it out. The artillery you have always regarded as a forbidden descendant was immediately promised to that little goblin three hundred. What are you thinking?"
"If that old fellow Li Zheng finds out about this, will he charge you with liaison with the enemy? Can you even ignore your own safety for the sake of the Northern Expedition?"
"Why can you be so cold-blooded and ruthless when you are selfish, but yet be so loving and boundless when you are selfless?"
"I finally understand. It turns out that I have never understood you."
"You are more difficult to understand than the most profound book in the world. You are a book with your own soul. No one knows what you are thinking."
"Of course, the Huyan Royal Court sent troops more quickly. Your Jin Kingdom is too far away, and the cavalry is not as fast as the Turks."
"Excuses!"
Liu Mingzhi was silent, holding the queen's plump and slender body, leaning slightly and opening the drawer on the desk, taking out a piece of rice paper and handing it to the queen.
The Queen took the rice paper and looked through it doubtfully.
There is only one word "quasi" and a seal on the huge rice paper.
The Queen's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty, with a hint of disbelief.
"Have you consulted this old guy Li Zheng, and he actually agreed to trade the artillery to the Huyan Royal Court in exchange for 100,000 troops?"
"I'm confused. Not only can I not understand what you are thinking, I can't understand what Li Zheng is thinking."
"Or maybe I'm more curious about how you persuaded Li Zheng to agree to this matter?"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and took out a piece of rice paper from the drawer again and handed it to the Queen. The Queen took it directly and her bright eyes became even brighter when she saw the pattern on the rice paper.
"Fire** paper?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently.
The Queen stared at the drawing carefully for a while: "There is only one pattern, the casting mold. What is the specific number?"
"Do you think I'd show you those?"
The Queen smiled lonely and threw the drawing on the desk: "Sure enough! You are still so cold-blooded and ruthless even when you are selfish."
"To put it mildly, could your Jin Kingdom's military commanders be able to replicate the true appearance of the artillery you witnessed at Shanhaiguan?"
The Queen nodded silently: "Okay!"
"Where are the cannonballs?"
The Queen shook her head helplessly: "There is no way to start!"
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and kissed the Queen's white forehead: "You can't call a cannon just by imitating its shape."
"Otherwise, it would be your own soldiers who would be killed or wounded by the explosion."
"The most important thing is the technology of casting the cannon and the power of the cannonballs. Otherwise, even if it is copied, it may not be more powerful than the catapult. Do you understand?"
The Queen's bright eyes turned slightly and she thought for a moment, seeming to have figured out something.
"So that's what you had in mind. No wonder only one thousand shells were given to three hundred artillery pieces."
The Kingdom of Jin had a large number of skilled craftsmen, and it was impossible to imitate the same artillery without specific data, let alone the Turkic steppe where even iron armor could not be made.
Once the cannonballs are used up in the battle with the Royal Court of Spies, to the Royal Court of Huyan, the three hundred artillery pieces are just useless scrap metal that is a pity to throw away.
"Aren't you afraid that the little goblin will use artillery to deal with your big dragon in the future?"
"How could I agree to this deal if I wasn't sure?"
"Even if she runs out of artillery shells, what if she and I unite as a united front and trade the artillery to me, the Kingdom of Jin? You know very well about Fei Xiong's gunpowder."
Liu Mingzhi looked down at the queen's beautiful face and smiled: "If you were her, would you do it?"
The Queen shook her head silently: "No, because I may backhand her people in the future!"
"You're so handsome that you don't think about this?"
The Queen sighed silently, turned over and sat astride Young Master Liu, staring at Young Master Liu with resentful eyes.
"You really plot against everyone, you are such a cold-blooded guy!"
"It's just self-protection, you can't help yourself!"
"Then have you ever plotted against that old guy Li Zheng?"
Young Master Liu frowned and his pupils shrank slightly.
"Instead of answering this question, I choose to eat half a carrot more."
"I agree. It's okay to eat three more radishes. I have all the radishes in the Kingdom of Jin, which is enough for you to eat for a year and a half."
"Either you, Mr. Liu, surrender, or I will collapse on the bed."
"I would rather choose the latter!"
"Gudu"
Young Master Liu looked at the Queen with twitching corners of his mouth: "I just want to explain the difficulties in answering this question, there is no other meaning!"
