Chapter 430 Don’t be robbed by a thief
Xie Yuan nodded slightly to Chu Xiaozi, and Chu Xiaozi suddenly became less nervous.

"I...after I left Yanjing, I wanted to visit a few more places and headed north. As soon as I arrived at Jiuyuan, I encountered Prince Rong's rebellion. I originally wanted to go back early, but I was unexpectedly delayed for a few days. Didn’t have time to leave.”

After she whispered to Su Youyue, she looked at her with bright eyes.

Shu Mo looked surprised. He didn't expect that this black boy could be so obedient.What's more, she didn't expect that she actually knew Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie, and they really kept it secret.

"I see, then how did you meet Mr. Hua?" Su Youyue secretly sighed. It seems that these girls will have a chance to go out, and their lives will change accordingly.

I don’t know how far the children in the Beijing Women’s Medical Clinic can go in the future.

But in order for them to go further, the country must first be stable.

This time, Hua Qingyun spoke. He greeted Xie Yuan and Su Youyue before explaining: "This little brother helped Hua twice before, and we got to know each other through it."

While several people were talking, the people behind him had already recognized Xie Yuan. They were all very excited and wanted to rush forward. Gao Shengcai, who was following behind Xie Yuan, said hurriedly: "My lord, let's go to the private room to talk."

Until a few people entered the private room, the noise outside was still boiling. The three waiters were arguing over who should come to the private room to deliver tea. The shopkeeper glared and the three of them immediately fell silent. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper himself brought the tea and went to the private room. When they went to the private room, the three of them couldn't help but be stunned.

"Thank you, sir, please use the tea. This is the finest Qimen black tea that I have kept privately..."

The shopkeeper raised his head and looked at several stunning faces. He was so shocked that he was almost speechless, stammering and stumbling.

"Although...even though it is last year's old tea, but...there is no second person in the entire Jiuyuan Town who has it. Last year's tea harvest was small. My old friend of ten years knew that I like this tea, so he specially left it for me..."

Seeing Xie Yuan glance at him and nod slightly, he looked at the handsome young master and another young master over there, both looking at him with a smile. The shopkeeper held the tray in his arms and went out as if sleepwalking.

When three guys came over to ask, it took him a while to come back to his senses and smacked his lips: "I didn't expect that after living for most of my life, I could actually see gods..."

In the private room, Hua Qingyun picked up the tea cup, looked at the red and transparent tea soup, and took a sip. He felt that the aroma was like fruit and orchid, the taste was mellow, and the aftertaste was endless. His face suddenly brightened.

"Thanks to Mr. Xie, I can taste the shopkeeper's Tibetan tea."

Xie Yuan replied: "If the Third Master of Hua is willing to reveal his identity and fame, the shopkeeper will not be stingy."

Hua Qingyun was startled, then smiled and said: "Hua is just a scholar, how can he talk about fame?"

Su Youyue couldn't help but say: "If Mr. Hua hadn't provided the shortcut map this time, we wouldn't have been able to arrive so quickly. Don't refuse to take credit. We have already written to the emperor to ask for credit."

On the side, Chu Xiaozi's mind flashed back to the scene where she saw Hua Qingyun drawing pictures before. At that time, she said that he still had the leisure and elegance to draw pictures at such a time. The other party just smiled and put away the pictures. When I got up, I didn't expect that I was actually drawing a shortcut map for military use.

No wonder he could know so accurately when the imperial reinforcements would arrive.

Suddenly, her face became hot, but when she saw that Hua Qingyun was not looking at her, but was talking to Xie Yuan and Su Youyue, the heat on her face gradually faded away. She saw that Hua Qingyun and Xie Yuan were both talking and chatting. You have to come and go, she couldn't help but think that this was the first time she saw someone other than Mr. Xie chatting with Master Xie in such a lively manner.

After hearing the end, Xie Yuan actually invited Hua Qingyun to serve as a counselor in the army. Chu Xiaozi even breathed a little lighter, wanting to hear Hua Qingyun's answer.

Hua Qingyun responded immediately: "Thank you, Sir, for serving the country. If there is any need for me, I will do my best to cooperate." In the blink of an eye, the person who smiled at him every day first became a person who made great contributions to the country. Then he became an army counselor who defended the country. No matter whether it was Mr. Xie or Mr. Xie, they all worked hard to serve the country. For some reason, Chu Xiaozi suddenly felt a little useless. She hesitated and slowly Slowly lowered his head.

After several people finished talking and said goodbye, she caught up with Su Youyue.

"gentlemen……"

Su Youyue turned around and looked at her with soft eyes: "What's wrong, Xiao Zi?"

Seeing that Su Youyue responded to the title of husband, Chu Xiaozi felt excited, but soon hesitated: "I...do you have any work in the city that I can help with...anyway, I can't do it now." I have nothing to do, so I might as well help you out."

Chu Xiaozi came at the right time, Su Youyue was really short of manpower.

After the city gates were temporarily opened for the past two days, scattered people came to Jiuyuan Town one after another. The overcrowding of Jiuyuan Town was not a problem. The problem was that they were afraid of spies sneaking in.

I don't know how many King Rong's people there are in this town originally. Now if someone sneaks in and does some trick work, the trouble will be big.

As soon as she thought about it, she left Chu Xiaozi behind: "It's true that something happened. Come back and talk to me."

Chu Xiaozi was smart and well-versed in the folk customs of the city than the people in the military camp or even the secret guards. Moreover, she was young and had been keeping tabs on people in the back house before, so it was perfect to be an informant.

When Chu Xiaozi heard this, her depression suddenly disappeared, her spirits were high, and she followed Su Youyue away.

Now Xie Yuan and Su Youyue are not living in the military camp, but the temporary house where they live is temporarily occupied by many secret guards dressed as soldiers. When Chu Xiaozi followed in, she saw a catapult standing in the backyard. There are many simple gray ceramic jars stacked in the room next to them. At first glance, they thought they were ordinary stones.

She understood in an instant that this was the "secret weapon" rumored to be developed by the imperial court, the same thing that caused a commotion like a landslide and earth shattering at the gate of the city that day, causing King Rong to retreat immediately.

Chu Xiaozi couldn't help but look at it a few more times out of curiosity.

Seeing her curiosity, Su Youyue simply brought her over to take a look: "This is the ammunition for the catapult. It is forbidden to come into contact with open flames. If it comes into contact, it will explode directly and it will be extremely powerful."

There are three fuses at the mouth of each jar to prevent flameout and ensure that the ammunition can explode.

Looking at this mysterious weapon with a strange shape, Chu Xiaozi sighed with emotion: "What kind of talented person can actually make such a powerful weapon? If it weren't for this ammunition, it would be impossible for King Rong to retreat."

Before this, Chu Xiaozi even doubted whether Dasheng was going to die.

It can be seen that after seeing the ammunition, she no longer thought so. She was now more confident. When King Rong came, they used this weapon to blow him up to the sky!

This is not a weapon, this is clearly a treasure!

When she thought of the word "treasure", Chu Xiaozi said almost subconsciously: "Sir, we must protect the ammunition, and we must not let it get stolen by thieves!"
