Chapter 304: 304 Dislike (Second update)
Chapter 304 304 Disdain (Second update)
"Yes, Your Majesty." Jingfeng Zuo bowed and accepted his orders, then hurriedly exited.
Wuhejialou smiled and said nothing, his eyes were calm, and he drank tea quietly.
He just sat there, making people feel extraordinarily quiet.
Chiang Rai, who was behind Uhagalou, frowned in confusion and couldn't help but ask: "Why are you looking for weird things?"
Chu Qianchen, who was distracted, was brought back from his thoughts at this moment and raised his eyes to look at Qinglai.
She didn't say anything, her eyes were clear and calm, but Chiang Rai just felt that she was being looked down upon.
If anyone dared to look at him like this, Qinglai would have to challenge him to a duel. But this person was Chu Qianchen, the miracle doctor who helped Wuhejialou come back from the **** gate.
They all owed her a huge favor.
Chiang Rai could only purse her lips fiercely.
Wuhejialou seemed to have noticed this scene, and explained calmly: "The most important thing in casting weapons is precision. The slightest difference can make the difference thousands of miles. It must be a skilled craftsman."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and asked inexplicably: "Chiang Rai, if it were you, would you hand over a priceless treasure to a stranger for temporary care?"
Of course not! Chiangrai shook his head intuitively, then tilted his head thoughtfully.
Yes, if he had such a priceless drawing, how could he dare to show it to a strange craftsman easily? Once the craftsman learns how to make this kind of bow, he has obtained this treasure, which can be resold. go.
So, what if it was him? Chiangrai racked his brains thinking.
Uhagalou continued: "She can't make a bow herself, and she can't trust outsiders. The only way is to break it into parts, scatter the various parts of the bow, give them to different craftsmen to make, and then combine them."
Only in this way can she ensure that the key secret is in her hands alone.
It is precisely because of this that the Andaman people have been searching in the capital for so many days and still haven't found a clue. Their direction was wrong at the beginning. However, with Andaman's shrewdness, they should be able to guess this quickly. a little.
But Gu Jue asked Jin Yiwei to come forward, which was enough to scare the craftsmen, so that they did not dare to say anything more to the outside world, let alone hand over the drawings to others.
After Wu He Jia Lou's advice, Chiang Rai also completely figured it out, and his heart beat faster: No wonder the eldest prince would come to King Chen immediately and decisively. This matter must be done as soon as possible, and Andaman must not be allowed to get ahead of them.
In their current situation, it was like stepping on a tightrope as thin as a hair, unable to make a wrong step.
Chiang Rai clenched her fists tightly, remembering something, and a trace of blood red appeared in the depths of her dark pupils.
His eyes surged violently for a moment, then calmed down, and he looked at Uhagalou with bright eyes.
His life was given by the eldest prince, he just needs to follow the eldest prince!
On the stove, there was another slight sound of water boiling, white steam curled up from the mouth of the pot, and another pot of water was boiling.
The wind blew in from the window, causing some strands of Gu Jue's hair and the colored water vapor to flutter gently.
This time, Gu Jue ordered the tea himself.
Chu Qianchen watched happily from the sidelines. Her tea-ordering skills were learned from Gu Jue in her previous life, and she only scratched the surface. Gu Jue taught her just to make her "meditate".
The best she could do when ordering tea was to make the foam stick on the cup, but Gu Jue was able to order a picture of birds in the distant mountains on top of the tea soup. Chu Qianchen watched it without blinking and was almost reluctant to drink it. .
After drinking tea, Gu Jue stayed with Wu He Jia Lou to have dinner with him. Chef Tian of the palace also cooked extremely well even if he was a vegetarian.
After lunch, the two sat by the window and played chess while Chu Qianchen watched the game.
When the chess game reached the middle of the game, someone came to see him, and it was Pei Linye.
Pei Linye was wearing a sapphire blue dark Eight Immortals brocade robe. He had a slender and tall figure and a handsome face. When he walked, he had a calm and calm demeanor.
Chu Qianchen couldn't help but take another look at Pei Linye.
In her previous life, she only knew him as Pei Linye.
It wasn't until this life that she learned from Mrs. Shen that Pei Linye was still related to Duke Mu's family, and he could be considered her cousin.
"Your Majesty, Princess."
Pei Linye walked up to the three of them without squinting, and bowed to Gu Jue and Chu Qianchen first, as if he hadn't seen Wuhejial Tower at all, and his expression was as usual.
He reported to Gu Jue: "Your Majesty, I asked people to inquire about all the bow-making shops in the capital. I found five shops in total and got the drawings from those shops."
Pei Linye brought back several drawings and presented them all to Gu Jue.
After Gu Jue dropped a sunspot on his hand, he took the drawings and looked at them carefully. He only looked at two and raised his eyebrows with interest.
Obviously, these drawings are very different from the one in Uhagalou. On the drawing of Uhagalou, the shape of the entire bow was drawn, but some details on the bow were blurred.
However, the drawings brought by Pei Linye all showed parts of the bow, and the content was more detailed and accurate to numerical values, such as how big the wheels on the bow should be.
Pei Linye continued: "Every shop said that a young woman wearing a curtain hat went to them to make custom orders. I couldn't tell her appearance. I could only judge from her voice and body shape. She should be a young girl. ”
"She paid very high prices for those shops and was very careful. She deliberately spread out her time when looking for these five shops. It took five or six days after visiting the previous one before going to the next one."
Unfortunately, this is the capital. Jin Yiwei is willing to investigate, and he can find clues no matter what. The owners of those shops are just ordinary people, and they dare not deceive Jin Yiwei.
After Gu Jue looked at two of them first, he handed them to Wuhejial Tower.
The meaning of this move does not need to be expressed in words.
Uhagalou: “…”
Wuhejialou was slightly startled, with a rare look of astonishment on Qingjun's face.
There was silence in the hall.
Wuhejialou slowly raised his hand to take the two drawings, and looked at them attentively with a focused expression.
Gu Jue didn't even raise his head and continued to look at the next picture.
Chiang Rai on the side was also stunned, staring at Gu Jue in stunned silence.
The relationship between Qi and Hao is definitely not good. Over the years, the two countries have reluctantly not started a war because of their own reasons.
Weapons are of great importance, and both countries have their own positions. Today, Uhagalou brought the blueprints obtained from Andaman, but neither he nor Chiang Rai thought that Gu Jue would take them Share these drawings with them.
Qinglai's eyes became darker, and he looked at the King Chen of Daqi with more complicated eyes. The other party seemed to really not care about showing them such an important thing.
Qinglai's eyes looked back and forth between Gu Jue and Wuhe Jialou. One was frivolous and the other was saintly. Their appearance and temperament were completely different.
He knew their eldest prince. He had entered the temple to practice at the age of twelve and had always been firm in his mind. Nothing could shake him. Even if they encountered drastic changes, the eldest prince had not changed. He had his faith in his heart. and responsibility that no one can shake.
The same goes for the King Chen of Daqi in front of him.
He also has his beliefs and his "Tao" in his heart, and he leads different paths to the same destination.
Chu Qianchen leaned over and looked at Gu Jue for a while, then gave up and looked away. There were specialties in the art, and if she didn't understand it, she wouldn't waste time.
Her eyes fell on the chessboard between the two of them, lowering her eyes and thinking. If it were her, how would she make the next move?
After Gu Jue read the drawings that Pei Linye brought, he handed them all to Wuhejialou, and he went back and looked at the one from Wuhejialou again.
After comparing the drawings on both sides, Gu Jue had a vague idea. His eyes turned around on the wheels and the auxiliary strings other than the main bow string on the drawings.
These should be the keys to this bow.
Gu Jue's index finger moved lightly next to the chessboard a few times, thinking intently.
After a moment, he gestured to Jingfeng and ordered: "Let Cheng Linhua find someone to make it and take a look."
Jingfeng immediately took the order and retreated with the drawings.
Unlike Chu Qianhuang, who was isolated and helpless, Prince Chen's Mansion had no shortage of craftsmen who knew how to make weapons.
"In a few days, let's try the bow together." Gu Jue said with a smile.
Since he dared to say this, he was 80 to 90% sure that he could reproduce this bow with the help of these drawings and some existing information.
Maybe it won't work once, but Prince Chen's Mansion will have whatever it wants, manpower, material resources, and financial resources. Even if it fails once, it doesn't matter. If you try it two, three, or four times, you will definitely succeed.
Wuhejialou nodded slightly, continued their chess game, and landed a white piece.
"Your Majesty, it has been decided that His Highness the Second Prince will accompany the Prince of Andaman to Baiyun Temple tomorrow." Pei Linye reported one last thing, "He will be escorted by the Jinyi Guards."
Gu Jue picked up a sunspot, looked towards Wuhajia Tower, and asked, "Master, would you like to travel with me?"
Chu Qianchen: "..."
Chu Qianchen almost lost his face. The prince hasn’t taken her to Baiyun Temple yet, that annoying monk!
