As long as the direction of the plan is good, it will always go smoothly. Three days later, Zhao Xuanyi took out this newly made crossbow. This kind of crossbow is completely different from ordinary crossbows. It has three steel wire crossbow strings and small pulleys on the left and right sides. , there are five crossbow slots in the middle!
After being opened, five short arrows can be put in, and there are slots on the front crossbow plate to adjust the aim. After adjustment, the directions of the four arrows on the left and right can be adjusted. The arrow in the center cannot be rotated. direction!
Zhao Xuanyi held the newly made five-star crossbow and felt very happy.
"Come here, prepare five archery targets for me!"
"Yes!" Tang Tianli and Sun Yan prepared five straw men and placed them in five different places. Zhao Xuanyi drew the crossbow, pointed the arrow, and then aimed at the five straw men. He slowly moved the five slots in front and took aim. He felt that the angle was about the same. The five straw men were ten steps away. Zhao Xuanyi pulled the trigger. Three steel wire locking strings were pulled instantly, and five arrows were instantly ejected, flying in five different directions!
【Whoosh whoosh whoosh...! Bang bang bang...! ] Five arrows were firmly nailed to the five straw men. Seeing this moment, everyone applauded and applauded. Zhao Xuanyi looked at the crossbow in his hand with a satisfied look. This thing needs to be aimed when there are few people. On the battlefield, there are so many enemy soldiers that there is no need to aim at all. You can kill five people with just a random shot!
To be honest, I really don’t want to hand over such a good thing, but I have no choice. The first level of officialdom will kill someone, not to mention this person is many times older than me!
Zhao Xuanyi doesn’t dare to mess around! In order to witness this moment, Zhao Xuanyi called Li Hanyan, Li Yukun, Li Hanrui and others. Zhao Xuanyi came to Li Yukun with a five-star crossbow.
"Father-in-law, this is the second range weapon I made, a five-star crossbow! Short range may require aiming, but on the battlefield, if every cavalry is equipped with one!"
"Once the cavalry on both sides fight, there is no need for the archers behind to run desperately. As long as each cavalry fires once, there will not be many casualties left after one round!" Li Yukun held a five-star crossbow in his hand. The eyes are very caring
"Yes, although the cavalry does not have time to reload arrows, if it is just cavalry versus cavalry, this five-star crossbow can be called a magic weapon. As long as it can be shot once, it is enough!" Li Hanyan took it over and looked at it.
"I'm going to have some fun!" After saying that, he brought Ziyuan and Litchi to the side and began to load arrows and conduct test firings. The most interesting thing about this crossbow is that the front crossbow plate can be aimed, so basically Within 150 degrees, you can shoot wherever you want!
Li Yukun looked at Zhao Xuanyi
"Does any adult want a design?"
"Not bad! But don't worry, father-in-law. Xiaoxu has already drawn two copies of the design, one for the princess and the other for his father-in-law. But if it's made, it probably can't be done here. It's best to leave it to the elder brother and make it far away in the frontier. As long as If we don’t take it back to the capital, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, who knows?” Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
After hearing this, Li Yukun stared
"We are all loyal ministers, how can we do such a deceiving thing? You are confused! That Zhang Han, there is something going on in the border area recently, you should go there tomorrow!"
"Ah? Yes!" Zhang Han didn't understand, but he must listen to the general's orders! Zhao Xuanyi gave a thumbs up, thinking you are the best, old fox!
Li Yukun winked at Zhao Xuanyi, and the two instantly reached a tacit understanding. 【Whoosh...pop! 】An arrow flew past the eyes of Zhao Xuanyi and Li Yukun. The two were face to face. The matter they were talking about was so confidential that only less than twenty centimeters could be seen from their noses. They watched the arrow fly past. Good guy, if you miss it again... One of them must lie down today!
Zhao Xuanyi was so frightened that he almost stopped peeing. Fortunately, his pants were tight and cold sweat fell from his forehead. When he turned around, he saw that Li Hanyan was also frightened. She clearly aimed well, so why did she miss the shot?
He hurriedly threw the five-star crossbow in his hand into Zi Yuan's hand. Zi Yuan looked at Zhao Xuanyi with an innocent face.
"Daughter-in-law! Are you going to murder your husband?" Zhao Xuan shouted righteously, rolling up his arms and sleeves to hit Li Hanyan.
Li Yukun grabbed Zhao Xuanyi, his face full of anger
"She's going to murder her new father, I'll do it!" She said and rushed over, slapping her hands high in the air. Li Hanyan was so frightened that she ran away in a hurry.
"Dad, I won't play anymore, don't fight!" Li Hanyan shouted while running, and finally ran behind Li Hanrui to hide!
Shen Wei came to Zhao Xuanyi
"Young Master, are you okay?" Zhao Xuanyi grabbed Shen Wei's arm
"Hold on to me, my legs are weak!" They made such an unprecedented weapon. The Li family was very happy. At noon, Li Yukun arranged the kitchen in the military camp, prepared big fish and meat, and countless fine wines, and himself The son-in-law drank happily. After all, this was his own military camp, and no one could disturb him!
During the banquet, Li Hanrui called Liu Bo
"Assign a trustworthy brother to wear casual clothes and send the drawings to the frontier. Hand them to the elder brother in person. They must keep it secret. Even the person who sends the letter cannot say what he is sending!"
"Second Young Master, can I go for such an important thing?" Liu Bo volunteered. Li Hanrui shook his head
"No, you are my most trusted subordinate. If you leave incarnate, you will definitely be targeted and change your face!"
"Yes! I'll go right away!" After Liu Bo finished speaking, he left with the drawings wrapped in cowhide.
"Come on, come on! Brother-in-law, you have done a great job! Let's have another drink with father!" Li Hanrui said with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi waved hurriedly
"Second brother, don't say that. I'm just doing something for our family, it's nothing!"
"Hey... I like to hear this. It has to be my son-in-law. Come on, daddy, give you a toast!" Li Yukun raised his wine glass and said.
"Thank you, father-in-law!" Zhao Xuanyi picked up the wine glass and the three men drank one glass! Li Hanyan didn't know how to drink, so she sat next to Zhao Xuanyi and ate meat obediently. From time to time, Zhao Xuanyi would speed up the fish meat for him, pick out all the thorns, and put it into Li Hanyan's bowl. The more Li Hanyan looked at Zhao Xuanyi, the more she liked him. Who doesn't like someone who is capable? , where is this handsome and caring man?
Li Yukun was also very happy to see Zhao Xuanyi and Li Hanyan getting along well. What a right decision it was to get Zhao Xuanyi as his son-in-law?
God bless you!
"By the way, when Sun Qian left a few days ago, did you send Han Yan off?" Li Yukun asked suddenly.
"Yes dad, Sun Qian had a lot of fun, and then she said she had something to do at home and left!" Li Hanyan replied.
Only then did Zhao Xuanyi remember, when did Sun Qian leave? Why don't you remember?
"When did Sun Qian leave?" Zhao Xuanyi asked softly. Li Hanyan turned her head and shot out two cold murderous auras from her eyes.
"While someone was visiting a brothel!"
"Ah? Haha, ahhahaha! Come, wife, eat some meat!" Zhao Xuanyi took the initiative to give Li Hanyan a piece of meat!
Li Yukun put down his wine glass, his eyes full of melancholy
"Oh, by the way, I haven't been to General Sun Peng's family for a long time. I heard that his eldest son Sun Ning also bought a jewelry shop?" Li Hanrui nodded.
"That's what happened, but...?" Li Hanrui said halfway, but stopped talking.
"Huh? But what?" Li Yukun asked.
"Father, a friend of mine passed by Shandong a while ago and heard that Sun Ning's shop may not be operating very well! It seems that someone has deceived him!" Li Hanrui said.
"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Li Yukun asked curiously.
"I heard that something happened when they were transporting jade. The good jade was originally placed in a box, but when I got there and opened the box, I found that some of the precious jade inside was all broken. Even a few pieces of high-quality material had cracks inside. , so the price... can be said to be more than a thousand times lower!" Li Hanrui said with a look of regret.
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he suddenly remembered the pair of jade bracelets that Sun Qian had given to Li Hanyan when she came a while ago. He felt something was wrong at that time. Li Hanyan had been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Sun Qian knew that Li Hanyan didn't like to wear these things, so she even gave her these jewelry. It turned out that they were Hide these things!
"It's so abominable! Isn't this harmful to people?" Li Hanyan shouted angrily. Zhao Xuanyi smiled and gave Li Hanyan a piece of meat
"You, you are only interested in doing business. This loss can only be regarded as a slap in the face. Why are you angry? Eat, eat!" Li Hanyan turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi
"Sun Qian is my best sister, Xuanyi, can you help with this matter?"
"Ah?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanyan with his mouth wide open.
"I said, daughter-in-law, I am a human being, not a god. I can't do everything, okay? Don't make things difficult for me. I don't understand these gold, silver, and jade articles!"
"But you can make weapons!"
"Is this the same thing? I can't make an arrow out of jade, can I? And that thing is not as hard as steel!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass.
"Father-in-law, second brother, let's drink!"
"Okay!" The three of them smiled and continued drinking. Li Yukun looked at Zhao Xuanyi
"Son-in-law, Sun Peng has been working for me all his life. If you can help with this matter, let's help him, right?" Zhao Xuanyi almost cried.
"Dad! Aren't you a difficult person? How can I know those things? Don't listen to Han Yan's nonsense!"
"Can't you think of a way to do it? Son-in-law, take this matter seriously!" Li Yukun said with a smile on his face.
Zhao Xuanyi scratched his ears and could only nod in agreement, but he really didn’t understand these gold, silver and jade items, he had never played with them before!
Does that grown man look at his earrings and hairpins every day? This time it was kicked to the iron plate! After lunch, Li Yukun stayed to inspect the military camp. Li Hanrui followed him, while Zhao Xuanyi resigned. The five-star crossbow has been made, so hurry up and deliver it!
To avoid long nights and too many dreams! Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei had just entered the capital on horseback and were strolling on the street. Suddenly a white figure caught Zhao Xuanyi's eyes. If he looked carefully, he saw that this was Zhu Yuejun's maid Xilan. Now Zhao Xuanyi saw everyone wearing white clothes. I'm afraid, how can this be a beauty?
This is a female ghost in broad daylight! Zhao Xuanyi got off his horse and bowed his head in salute.
"Hello, this is me...?"
"Follow me!" Before Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, Xilan said coldly, and then led the way. Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei looked at each other and thought to themselves, this is so unique!
Zhao Xuanyi came to Shen Wei
"Look at it? How do girls look like nowadays? Don't say anything about the price, just leave!" Shen Wei smiled and whispered.
"I'm guessing you're not afraid of not recognizing someone if you pull up your pants!" Zhao Xuanyi laughed loudly when he heard this.
"Best brother Shen!"
"What did you say?" Xilan asked.
"Ah...Taifeng Tower has a new dish, right?" Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly changed the subject.
"Yes, it seems like a pig's trotters and pig's ears appeared!" Shen Wei replied hurriedly.
"That sounds good, let's go have a drink tonight!" Zhao Xuanyi said seriously. When Xilan heard this, she frowned. Pork trotters and pig ears stewed?
Can it be delicious? The three of them came to an alley in the city. There was a small teahouse on the corner. Zhao Xuanyi had never been here before. This place was so secretive that it would take half a day to walk even if he knew the way!
"You two, please come with me!" After Xilan said that, she led the two of them into the teahouse. The waiter hurriedly came out to pick up the horses.
Zhao Xuanyi and Shen Wei walked into the teahouse and looked at the hall inside. There were a few simple wooden tables. There was nothing special. What was special was that there were a dozen tea-drinking customers sitting on the first floor, but the eyes of this group of people were special. He is so sharp that you can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person!
