Joy of Life: Rebirth of the Second Prince, Inviting Emperor Qing to Die

Chapter 286 Compound Bow

Emperor Qing sat at the table, looking at Fan Xian in front of him, and pondered for a long time.

Finally, I made up my mind.

Although he really wanted to know who the murderer Fan Xian had just mentioned was.

However, seeing that Fan Xian was determined not to say it, he did not force it any further.

"Okay, I'm willing to believe you!"

Emperor Qing said to Fan Xian.

Fan Xian said: "In that case, let's continue talking."

"Although I won't reveal who the murderer is, we can join forces with His Majesty to deal with him."

"This is also the reason why I came here this time to discuss cooperation with Your Majesty."

As he spoke, Fan Xian took out a blueprint from his sleeve and handed it to Emperor Qing.

"what is this?"

Emperor Qing took the blueprint and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Fan Xian said, "You will know once your Majesty opens it."

Emperor Qing casually opened the blueprint and revealed the entire drawing.

Ok? ? ?
The moment Emperor Qing saw the blueprint, he stood up from the stool with a thud.

Then, he looked at the drawing on the blueprint in his hand with shock.

"This is……"

Fan Xian immediately explained: "Your Majesty, this thing is called a 'compound bow'."

"What bow?" Emperor Qing looked confused.

He had seen many bows and arrows before, but this was the first time he saw such a strange thing.

Moreover, this is much more interesting than an ordinary longbow.

There is even a pulley on it.

There are so many bows and arrows on the market, but this is the first time I have seen one with a pulley.

and many more! ! !

At this moment, Emperor Qing suddenly thought of something.

The pulley on this longbow looks very familiar.

Could this weapon be the one used by Ye Qingmei back then?

Otherwise, why would it be so weird?

At this time, Fan Xian continued to explain: "Your Majesty, this so-called 'compound bow' is a bow that saves effort by utilizing the mechanical principle of a pulley."

"This compound bow would have been a very powerful and advanced long-range weapon in the era of cold weapons."

"Moreover, the power it releases is much stronger than that of ordinary bows and arrows, both in terms of power and speed."

"It's no exaggeration to say that the arrows shot with this 'compound bow' are more than three times more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows. If you're lucky, it's very likely to be five times more powerful, or even more."

"This is my gift to Your Majesty."

At this moment, Emperor Qing was still thinking about what Fan Xian had just said in his mind.

The long arrows shot out are more than five times more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows.

He was right in his guess!
This weapon should have been passed on to Fan Xian by Ye Qingmei.

Back then, Ye Qingmei used that mysterious weapon to kill people from a long distance. It had exactly this kind of power.

Now that the blueprints are available, we can let the craftsmen start making this weapon.

Moreover, Emperor Qing can now understand why Fan Xian gave this blueprint to him.

This gift really pleases me!

"Have you been to the temple?"

Emperor Qing was surprised and asked Fan Xian again.

Fan Xian shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have never been to the temple."

"Okay, I understand this matter." Seeing that Fan Xian didn't say anything, Emperor Qing didn't ask any further questions.

At this time, Fan Xian said again: "Your Majesty, in addition to giving this gift, I came to the palace tonight for another matter."

Emperor Qing fondly stroked the blueprint in his hand and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Fan Xian said: "I want to go into the 'Hanguang Palace' to find something."

"Hmm... Hmm?" Emperor Qing looked up at Fan Xian and asked, "What are you going to do in Hanguang Palace?" Fan Xian answered truthfully, "To find a key, the key I talked to Your Majesty about last time."

After hearing Fan Xian's answer, Emperor Qing suddenly realized something.

At that time, Fan Xian sneaked into the palace at night and was caught as an assassin. After Emperor Qing questioned him, he learned that he was just looking for the key.

He had been so busy in the past few days that he had forgotten about this matter.

Emperor Qing asked: "Is this key important to you?"

Fan Xian nodded and said, "It's very important. I must get it."

Emperor Qing pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then you can go over now."

"However, if you go, you'd better be careful and don't scare the Queen Mother."

"If the Queen Mother finds out, you know the seriousness of the problem."

Fan Xian replied: "Yes, I will pay attention to it."

He naturally knew the seriousness of the matter.

Now most people know that Fan Xian is dead. If someone suddenly sees him, they would think they have seen a ghost.

Especially at night, it can scare people to death.

Afterwards, Fan Xian bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will go now."

"After the weapons are built, we can continue to discuss cooperation."

Emperor Qing waved his hand, indicating that Fan Xian could leave.

Fan Xian said nothing more, turned around and left the imperial study.

After Emperor Qing looked at the drawings in his hand again, a sneer appeared on his face.

Then he shouted outside the room: "Someone come!"

A moment later, a middle-aged eunuch walked in quickly with a whisk in his hand.

"Your Majesty, what do you want?"

After Emperor Qing handed the blueprint in his hand to the eunuch, he said, "Send someone to quickly build the weapons on the blueprint."

"I want to see this thing as quickly as possible."

“So, tell those craftsmen to work overtime until it’s done.”

The eunuch put away the blueprint with both hands and immediately nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"I will go there now."

After the eunuch left, Emperor Qing thought of something and reached out and clapped a few times.

Then, a figure walked out from the shadows in the room.

This person was wearing black clothes and long pants, with a long sword hanging from his waist. He immediately bowed to Emperor Qing and said:

"His Majesty."

Emperor Qing waved his hand and said, "Go over now and tell Hong Sixiang that someone will sneak into the Hanguang Palace soon."

"Tell him not to worry about it and just say that I allowed it."

"Yes." The figure nodded in agreement, turned around and left.

When Emperor Qing saw that he was the only one left in the imperial study, he turned and left.

……

Wangfu.

After washing up, Li Chengze sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate.

As he breathed in and out, the true energy in his body began to flow continuously.

And in the sky above the palace, an extremely strange figure flashed.

The figure landed lightly on the ground and began to jump forward.

Soon, a figure arrived outside Li Chengze's bedroom door.

He bent down and squatted, but did not go in directly, but waited there.

After a while.

Li Chengze seemed to have noticed something.

He began to quickly return the true energy in his body to its original position, stopped practicing, and immediately looked outside the room.

"Who's out there!"
