Ye Fan, in his leisure time, would arrange flowers and admire the moon.

The capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, the Tang Clan branch.

"A big client has arrived, but things are a bit tricky!"

An old man walked in, holding Ye Fan's blueprints in his hand.

Two young girls were having a late-night conversation by lamplight in a pavilion.

One of the girls was Nalan Xueyan:

"The Great Xia Dragon Capital these past two days have been more exciting than the past few years! First, Ye Fan crippled the top scholar Qin Feng, then he stormed the palace and killed the Crown Prince's guards, and now the Great Xia Crown Prince has been deposed!"

"I thought that was the end of it for today, but I never expected that Prince Zhenbei, Ye Fan, would be assassinated that afternoon!"

"General Shen Murong, the Grand General of the Northern Garrison, may have already fallen! The northern border of Great Xia is likely to be leaderless and in chaos!"

A woman in brocade robes stood opposite Nalan Xueyan, a hint of surprise flashing in her beautiful eyes: "Has Ye Fan, the number one good-for-nothing playboy of Great Xia, suddenly changed his ways?"

"How would I know! But Grandpa said this is Ye Zhengrong's bloodline!"

Nalan Xueyan shook her head.

Sitting opposite her was her cousin, who was also the top mechanic among the younger generation of the Tang Clan!

Tang Miaoyi!

The sudden intrusion of the old man made Tang Miaoyi turn around with some displeasure: "Old Liu, what is it? Can't you finish it yourself? Why did you have to bother me?"

Old Liu was a little embarrassed: "Ahem...it's too meticulous!"

"If you give me seven days, I should be able to knead it by hand!"

"However, they've offered a very high price and need it done within a day, the sooner the better!"

"Besides, you'll definitely be interested in this!"

Tang Miaoyi became interested: "Oh?"

She took the drawings and her beautiful eyes flickered slightly before she became completely absorbed in them!

"Interesting! Prepare the materials! Have all twelve elders come out and assist me!"

"Sister Miaoyi, you said you'd keep me company tonight~" Nalan Xueyan said, pulling her hand and shaking it.

Tang Miaoyi gently brushed her small hand away: "Another day!"

With his long, slender fingertips, he touched Nalan Xueyan's nose and quietly turned away.

That night, flames soared into the sky in the workshop of the Tang Clan branch, and the sound of hammering filled the air.

It wasn't until the first light of dawn appeared in the east that day broke.

Tang Miaoyi's expression turned serious as she looked at the table full of parts: "Good heavens! These things are so strange! There are springs, screws, and pipes..."

Old Liu asked with some doubt, "Miss, is this a crossbow?"

"If it's a crossbow, there's no need for such precision, is there?"

To confuse the issue, Ye Fan deliberately added a bow and crossbow bolts to the blueprints.

Even if the Tang Clan made it, they would never have imagined that it was a modern sniper rifle!

He then looked at the bullet casings and bullet heads that Ye Fan had customized: "And these, what are they for?"

"Is it for crossbows?"

The other elders also joined in the discussion, each offering their own opinions!

"wrong!"

Based on her keen knowledge of all weapons and concealed weapons, Tang Miaoyi decisively shook her head: "This is a weapon!"

"A weapon? Could it be a repeating crossbow?"

Old Liu and the others were puzzled.

"Even with a repeating crossbow, you don't need to spend this much money!"

"The Tang Clan already sells ten-repeating crossbows! Why would this good-for-nothing spend so much money to customize a crossbow?"

"Even with a repeating crossbow, that single spring mechanism doesn't have enough propulsion to fire the bolts. And even if it did, it wouldn't be nearly enough to injure anyone!"

The twelve elders discussed among themselves, shaking their heads repeatedly.

Only Tang Miaoyi turned around and stared at Old Liu: "Who did you say ordered this?"

"Who else could it be but Ye Fan, the number one good-for-nothing playboy of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

Old Liu answered with a smile.

"He seemed to be in a real hurry. I asked for a thousand taels of gold for just one drawing, and he didn't even blink!"

The dozens of blueprints combined are worth at least tens of thousands of taels of gold!

He really is the number one playboy in the Great Xia Dynasty; he agreed without even blinking!

Tang Miaoyi shook her head decisively: "No way! Where in the world could there be such a sophisticated crossbow?"

She got to work, selecting parts and assembling them at lightning speed.

About half an hour later, a strange lump of iron was assembled. There was nothing in their world that resembled this thing at all!

"What is this?"

If I had to describe it, it would be like a rowing oar!

Ye Fan would be shocked if he were here!

Tang Miaoyi is simply a genius! He drew so many useless parts to mislead people, and even used a crossbow as a cover, yet Tang Miaoyi still managed to assemble the Barrett!

"This item is simply a perfect work of art!"

"Didn't you sense the terrifying killing intent emanating from it?"

"He even drew so many useless parts just to cover up what this thing really looks like!"

……

The next morning, Ye Fan finished detoxifying.

Just after getting up, Wang Danian knelt outside the door with bloodshot eyes and reported, "Your Highness! The items you asked us to order last night are finished!"

"What?"

Ye Fan was somewhat surprised: "So fast? Where's the stuff?!"

Rushing out of the room, Wang Danian looked up and said, "Your Highness, she said she must deliver it to you personally!"

A moment later, Ye Fan walked out of the Duke's mansion, and countless eyes on the street looked at him!

"It's Ye Fan, he's out!"

"It seems he's really alright after the assassination attempt. Quickly go back and report to the master; we haven't seen Shen Murong..."

Ye Fan ignored these people and walked directly towards a Tang Clan carriage at the entrance of the Duke's mansion.

"Your Highness!"

Tang Miaoyi stood beside the carriage, smiling as she gave a deep bow: "I brought the item, but I'm very interested in what it is."

Ye Fan frowned: "I'll provide the money, you provide the labor!"

"Isn't this Tang Clan's rule? You have no right to question the products your customers made!"

"All right!"

Tang Miaoyi didn't hesitate and had someone bring over a box.

Ye Fan opened it and took a look.

The word "Holy shit" almost slipped out of his mouth, and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!

An assembled Barrett rifle lay quietly in its box amidst a jumble of confusing parts!

Bang! Ye Fan slammed the box shut, staring intently at Tang Miaoyi: "How did you do that?"

Tang Miaoyi smiled and said, "I've been immersed in mechanical weapons since I was a child! Any part in the world that passes through my hands, I know its purpose and function!"

"This is the only thing I can't figure out what it is!"

"but……"

"But what?"

"I'm sure, this is a weapon! A very, very terrifying weapon!" Tang Miaoyi gave Ye Fan a deep look.

Ye Fan appeared unmoved on the surface, but his heart was already churning with turmoil!

Does this world even have someone like Tang Miaoyi?

"Besides you, is there anyone else who can assemble this thing from a pile of parts?" Ye Fan asked solemnly.

Tang Miaoyi smiled arrogantly: "Hehe! In the entire Tang Clan, besides me, there is no one else like me!"

Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

Many eyes turned to look, trying to figure out what was inside the box!

Ye Fan suddenly smiled mysteriously, an idea forming in his mind: "You want to know what this thing is for?"

"certainly!"

"Follow me!"

Ye Fan had the boxes loaded onto the carriage, then drove alone towards the outskirts of the city.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Wang Danian's expression changed drastically, and he roared, "Men! Leave three hundred men to guard the palace!"

"The other five hundred men, all of you, follow me and protect the Prince!"

Ye Fan shouted, "Wang Danian, you're not allowed to follow!"

Wang Danian stiffened: "Your Highness, you..."

"Those who disobey will be executed!"

Ye Fan only had one sentence.

Wang Danian roared in grief and anger: "Everyone, stand by!!"

Tang Miaoyi mounted her horse and was about to chase after Ye Fan!

Old Liu was utterly horrified: "Miss! No... Shen Murong is dead, but their death is being kept secret! The Prince of Zhenbei is now in dire straits himself!"

"His departure from the city at this time is tantamount to courting death!"

Tang Miaoyi was not afraid at all: "I'm not afraid! I'm determined to find out what that thing is today!"

As soon as Ye Fan's carriage rushed out of the city gate, countless people immediately went back to report!

"Ye Fan has left the city!"

"What? He dares to leave the city at this time? And he won't even allow the Prince's Guards to follow him? Is he courting death?"

"It's over... From this day forward, the Great Xia Dynasty will no longer have the Prince of Zhenbei!"

……

At the same time, deep within a magnificent mansion, two mute girls rushed in, anxiously using sign language: "Prince Zhenbei, he's gone out of the city alone!"

"He's insane!"

After a brief moment of shock, the man burst into laughter: "Hahaha! He was always a madman!"

"It wouldn't be surprising if they did anything!"

The voice was chilling and bloodthirsty: "Inform Feng Qingyang, his chance has come!"
