Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 429 Finding a Husband (4)
Chu Xia still wanted to say something, seeing her show her eyebrows coldly, within half a day, she suddenly lost a lot of gentleness and a lot of tenacity, but she also understood that the empress had already made up her mind and could not change it.

At the same time, Yun Wanqin sat in front of the dressing table, opened several dowry boxes, adjusted the ointment, and removed all the pearl hairpins and earrings from her head and face.

Chu Xia was puzzled, but understood what she was going to do. If she went with the army, it would be inconvenient for her daughter, so she hurriedly found a set of dark men's clothing and a cloak, and also a roll of corset cloth.

In the house, Yun Wanqin was remodeling, Gao Changshi had asked someone to carry the red sandalwood gift box back to the yard, put it on the patio, and sent everyone away.

Yun Wanqin dressed up and stepped out of the main house.

Gao Changshi saw that she was dressed in handsome men's clothing, and took a deep breath. Half a moment ago, she was still a charming, gentle and beautiful woman like a spring breeze. At this moment, she has become a heroic young man. If he hadn't seen Chu Xia by her side, Not recognizable at first glance.

Yun Wanqin walked into the courtyard and opened the rosewood box.

Inside the box, two dark-colored firecrackers, one long and the other short, were displayed in front of everyone, and there were several boxes of gunpowder beside them.

This is a metal shooting weapon made by Dashi, also known as the fire door gun. After several generations of improvements in the original simple structure, it is now very convenient.

Gunpowder is installed in the inner chamber, the shooting range is long, the speed is fast, people cannot avoid it, the power is infinite, it is easy to carry, it is far better than ordinary bows and swords, and it is very popular in the countries of the Western Regions.

Firecrackers had also been introduced to Daxuan a long time ago, and Emperor Ning Xi collected several of them, and often practiced playing them in the palace.

When Yun Wanqin opened the gift that day, she was pleasantly surprised when she saw this, but because the weapon was too lethal, she was afraid of going off, so she didn't put it outside, and asked the housekeeper to put it in the warehouse, but before collecting it, Yun Wanqin Strangely, in the archery room in the backyard of the Wang Mansion, I tried several times at the straw target. I pulled the safety catch and pulled the trigger. And pour.

I practiced it a few times, except that the recoil is too strong and sometimes I can't control it. Generally speaking, I am quite skilled, but Gao Changshi was frightened, and kept telling the empress to put this thing away quickly, and put it away again. That Feng Jiulang scolded several times in secret, what is wrong with giving him something like this.

At this moment, Yun Wanqin picked out a slightly smaller and more capable firecracker, and put on all the ammunition, and asked the pearls to be put into the package together for self-defense.At this time, Doctor Ying also prepared everything, wrapped everything into a small bag, and sent it over.

With Yun Wanqin on her back, Chu Xia put on a spacious silver goat cloak for her. In front of them, there was a handsome and dashing young man.

She looked up and saw that in less than three or four hours, Shen Zhao's troops would hang banners and go to Yanyang in Changchuan County. She said quietly: "At home, I have to worry about you four. Gao Changshi, Is the carriage ready?"

Chu Xia almost grew up with the eldest girl. From the girl in the boudoir to the current Princess Qin, she can see any slight growth and changes in her eyes, but what she did today was something I could never imagine in my life. With a swipe of the palm, I mustered up my courage and calmed my mind. I couldn't hold back the empress and the third master, and took the lead in saying: "The empress is at ease all the way. The slaves will definitely take care of the rear affairs in the palace of the capital, and wait for the empress and the third master to come back!"

Having said that, both Zhuzhu and Qingxue couldn't help but blushed: "Your Majesty, don't worry!"

Gao Changshi sighed, the matter has come to an end, but he can't say anything more: "The car is ready, the old slave will send the lady there." After finishing speaking, he personally led Yun Wanqin out from the back door of the palace, and took the car that had been prepared earlier. With a flick of the whip, the carriage galloped straight towards the General's Mansion.

It's night, General's Mansion.

Shen Zhao went to the main courtyard to bid farewell to his grandfather, and just returned to his own courtyard.

Old General Shen recommended his grandson this time, partly because the wind and cold hadn't recovered, and partly because he wanted to give his grandson a chance. They all saw it in their eyes and had great confidence in him. What they lacked was just an opportunity.

And this time, the matter of Changchuan County happened just right.

Old General Shen looked at his tall and mighty grandson, not worried at all that he would not be able to handle this matter, a few exhortations were just to let him relax, seeing that it was getting late, he said: "Ah Zhao, tomorrow the rooster will call you If you want to get up, go back and rest quickly, take care of yourself, and you won't be able to sleep for two hours, at this moment, the most important thing is to recharge your batteries."

Shen Zhao got up, bowed to salute, and went back to the courtyard.

In the dead of night, the capital is quiet and peaceful.

Although it was a winter night, there was no bleak air, and there was a strong atmosphere of fireworks everywhere. Outside the high walls of the General's Mansion, there were even music from the shops that were allowed to open after the curfew.

It is unimaginable that Yanyang City, which is far to the southwest of the capital, is at the moment when the government and the people are confronting each other and their swords are on the verge of breaking out.

There are still a few hours to go on the road, but Shen Zhao doesn't feel sleepy. Standing in front of the window desk in the study in the yard with his long body behind his back, his long eyes move down, looking at the topographic map of Yanyang City seriously, and his brows add a little more Very fortitude.

Just halfway through, a servant's voice came from outside: "Second Miss..."

Shen Zhao raised his eyes, outside the window, Shen Ziling drove away all the servants in the courtyard, took a few steps up the stairs, and entered the main room without knocking on the door.

The Shen family is full of martial arts, the family rules are not as complicated as those of civil servants and aristocratic families, and this second younger sister was spoiled by his grandfather, Shen Zhao didn't care at the moment, thinking she probably came to say goodbye to him, rolled up the map: "Son Ling."

Shen Ziling walked over quickly, but lowered her voice: "Brother, Princess Qin is here, just outside your yard."

Shen Zhao's hand froze in mid-air, and his heart throbbed heavily. After confirming that his sister was not joking, he suddenly realized what Yun Wanqin's coming to the starry night meant, and said: "Don't invite the princess to come in, so don't let anyone see it."

Shen Ziling nodded and went out. After a while, the curtain was opened, and a handsome young man in men's clothes appeared in front of him.

Yun Wanqin stood in front of the curtain and gave a male salute: "Brother."

Shen Zhao originally thought that she wanted to inquire about the affairs of Changchuan County, and perhaps told him to protect King Qin, but he didn't expect that she was dressed like this, and seeing her bulging cloak, she seemed to be carrying something, her complexion changed: " Ziling, quickly help the empress to get up! What is the empress doing?"

Yun Wanqin glanced at Shen Ziling, and there was no time to talk nonsense, she raised her face and fixed Shen Zhao, her eyes were shining like lake water, quiet and steady: "Brother, please take Qin'er to Yanyang City."

Shen Zhao's cheeks tightened: "Nonsense!"

Shen Ziling has already spoken: "Brother! Qin'er is not messing around! We all know what Changchuan County is like now. Qin'er wants to deliver medicine to King Qin and stay by his side to take care of it!"
