Lao Sikong seemed a little excited, his head with a severely receding hairline was shining, and he said with some pride: "I am lucky to live up to the prince's expectations."
Lao Sikong took a step forward and touched the main mirror of the bone mirror in front of him.
The surface of the main mirror suddenly shimmered with light.
Miraculously, one of the fluctuations extended along the mana lines suspended around the mirror, and instantly made contact with the secondary mirror opposite, and what Lao Sikong had written casually when he touched the primary mirror appeared on the mirror.
Handwriting: Prince, please read!
Zhao Huaizhong: "Have you mastered the internal structure of the bone mirror to transmit messages to each other?"
Lao Sikong raised his chin like a proud rooster:
"After more than a year of research and separation, we have indeed initially mastered this ancient magic circle that communicates with each other and transmits messages between mirrors, and copied it."
He added: "But there is one thing that may disappoint the prince.
In order to reduce consumption and material manufacturing costs, we have developed objects that are used for border defense and even as warnings for major counties and counties. They cannot display images like a bone mirror and transmit messages face to face."
This Zhao Huaizhong is not surprising. The modern communication system has been improved through many iterations, let alone in this era.
"How far can it go now?"
Lao Sikong took out an artifact, held it in his hand, and introduced:
"This is the warning artifact newly researched by our Material Creation Department at the request of the Crown Prince.
As long as one of them is touched, the other ones connected to it will emit vibrations and special frequencies, and their colors will also change to provide different levels of warnings.
The principle of this kind of creation is basically the same as that of the magic circle refined in the bone mirror."
"We call it a mirror whistle to show that it was peeled off a bone mirror, and it means a warning whistle."
Lao Sikong introduced proudly.
At the same time, he raised the object in his hand to Zhao Huaizhong: "We disguised this mirror whistle as a gong and hammer commonly used in various places, and gave it to the patrol personnel to carry on their bodies for easy disguise.
Since they originally had gongs as warning instruments with them, they would not attract anyone’s attention.”
Zhao Huaizhong looked at the gong hammer in Lao Sikong's hand.
The gong hammer is seven or eight inches long, with a wooden handle and a ball-shaped object the size of an egg at the front. There are many magic circles and incantations hidden inside, which are the key to conveying warnings.
Old Sikong said proudly: "Once the holder of this gong hammer is in danger, he can instantly pass it on to more than ten other companions holding this thing.
If the holder dies in an accident and loses the breath of life, it can also warn people to go check it out as soon as possible."
"We also specially designed an oscillation function for this object to prevent the message being sent from being weak and missed by others."
Lao Sikong immediately gave a demonstration.
The gong-hammer-like thing vibrated slightly, and after Zhao Huaizhong took it, it kept trembling and shaking in his hand.
The handle is straight, the front end is spherical, and it also vibrates... Zhao Huaizhong glanced at Lao Sikong calmly, wondering about the origin of this old man. Could he be an old pervert who traveled through time?
"Old Sikong, is this a serious communication device you made?" Zhao Huaizhong asked expressionlessly.
Lao Sikong looked confused: "Yes."
Zhao Huaizhong tipped the mirror whistle in his hand: "Let's change the appearance of this one. It should be smaller and less noticeable."
Lao Sikong took back the mirror whistle that was imitated as a gong hammer. Still a little confused, he tried the mirror whistle in his hand, and the front end of the mirror whistle immediately vibrated.
"Prince, isn't this very effective?"
Lao Sikong still wanted to argue, but Zhao Huaizhong had already stepped out and said without doubt: "Change it, this one will definitely not work."
Just kidding, if each team of the Great Qin border army has such a vibrating device, how will future generations view Great Qin?
However, the issue of summons and warning was solved, and Zhao Huaizhong was in a good mood. When he left, he was smiling and his steps seemed lighter than usual.
Because of the osteoscope, he thought of a person who had been left behind and had not seen him for more than a year:
"That Xiying was the holder of the bone mirror and glasses back then. Where is he now?"
Mu Qingkong replied from behind: "The prince originally said that she would be locked up, but she is still locked up."
This level lasts for one year.
Zhao Huaizhong: "Bring her over and let me take a look."
"No!" Mu Qingkong waved her hand, and within a moment someone went to bring Xiying over.
The main hall of Ye Yu Mansion.
Zhao Huaizhong sat in the main seat and looked at Xi Ying in front of him.
After being imprisoned for more than a year, Xiying's face and figure are thinner than before, and her face is a little pale. After all, she has not seen the light of day after more than a year in prison.
But compared to the changes in face and body, the mental breakdown is more terrifying.
During the initial period of detention, Xiying still had hope and some confidence in her figure and appearance.
According to her analysis, the Crown Prince of Qin imprisoned her mostly because he wanted to neglect her for a period of time and to show off his power. If she goes out one day, she will probably become the person next to the Crown Prince.
Even more extravagant thoughts have not occurred to Xiying deep in her heart.
However, I have been waiting in jail for more than a year.
In the first month, Xiying could still hold her temper and waited for Zhao Huaizhong to summon her again.
By the second month, she could no longer hold her composure, and repeatedly asked the tough women of Qin who were in custody in the women's prison: "When will the prince see me?"
Did he have any other instructions for locking me here?
I want to see the Crown Prince?"
The shrew who was guarding the prison was annoyed by the noise, and was ready to come over with a stick to teach Xiying how to be a good person: "What is my identity as the Crown Prince of Great Qin? Do you want to see me if you want? Just yell again and try."
Xiying, whose magic power was imprisoned, became honest after being beaten several times.
By the time half a year later, she had basically given up. Now, a year later, she was completely in despair. She felt that she might be thrown into jail, and she had already made plans to spend the rest of her life in jail.
Suddenly, Xi Ying almost went crazy when she heard that Zhao Huaizhong had summoned her.
The moment she saw Zhao Huaizhong, she knelt on the ground.
Due to the change in mentality, even her kneeling posture became particularly humble. She curled up her body and begged honestly on her knees: "Xi Ying is willing to be a slave and a maid. I will devote all my loyalty to the Qin Dynasty and to the prince. I only ask that the prince can let go."
Got me!"
This was said with all sincerity.
From being a holy girl with a beautiful face to being imprisoned, the gap between her and Xi Ying's mentality was completely broken.
Zhao Huaizhong remained silent, and Mu Qingkong asked on his behalf:
"Let me tell you what value you have to me, Da Qin."
Xiying thought about this problem in prison for less than a year, and said without hesitation: "I can serve the prince. If the prince likes it, Xiying is willing to sleep with him at any time."
No matter how much you want to eat, I am the man you will never get... Zhao Huaizhong is calm and calm.
Even Mu Qingkong, Xin Wu and others behind him had their mouths slightly raised. This woman had a good idea...
Xiying added: "I can also sneak into the Chu land and instigate the Yue Nu Cult to be used by the prince. If this is not enough, I am willing to return to the Chu land and become a spy for the Ye Yu Mansion to help the prince pay attention to the movements of the Chu people.
The clan members and nobles of Da Chu have long coveted our Yue Nu Cult. I may be able to use these Chu people and nobles to help the crown prince and do my part to help Da Qin annex the Chu land as soon as possible."
Zhao Huaizhong held the bamboo pen for reviewing the case files in his hand, and his fingers gently rubbed the pen holder, showing a thoughtful look.
Although Da Qin did not lack a spy, Xi Ying's crime was not worthy of death. He could not just be deprived of his political rights for life and locked up all the time.
"If you return to Chu, how will you explain your whereabouts during the year you were imprisoned to the Yue Women's Cult?" Mu Qingkong asked.
"I can help the prince to instigate rebellion against our Yue Nu Sect first and make our sect become a peripheral vassal of Ye Yu Mansion."
Xiying expressed her loyalty and said: "I am a saint, and my sect is already at odds with Lord Chun Shen, a native of Chu. We have long planned to move out of Chu, but there is no suitable place, so we have been waiting and watching."
"If I go back and just say that I am being detained by Ye Yu Mansion and secretly surrender to Da Qin, there will be no problem."
Zhao Huaizhong finally nodded slightly, and Mu Qingkong immediately understood what he meant and took Xiying down.
Mu Qingkong will be responsible for arranging everything from now on, and Zhao Huaizhong doesn't need to worry about it anymore.
Putting Xiying back was a casual move made by Zhao Huaizhong.
Seeing that it was getting late, he got up and returned to the Crown Prince's Mansion.
Inside the house, Yan Huansha had taken a shower and changed clothes.
After half a day of training, although she was still feeling a little uncomfortable, she had basically recovered. After all, she was a good dancer and her physical fitness was not bad.
The key is that Zhao Huaizhong gave instructions when he left, and the internal officials provided Yan Huansha with palace medicine earlier to help her recover.
At least on the surface, she seems to be in good condition. I don't know if she has any internal injuries.
When Zhao Huaizhong came back, Yan Huansha was dressed in light blue. She looked like she had just taken a shower. Her hair was still wet and not yet dry. She had a little makeup on her face, red lips and black eyes. Her skin was as white as fine porcelain. Her clothes... were a little hard to describe.
Lightweight gauze…
Seeing Zhao Huaizhong coming back, Yan Huan bowed down to welcome the crown prince of Qin.
