Chapter 510: Long Yan is delighted
. "Exactly." Wei Jin also gave an affirmative answer.
Hearing this, the ministers became more and more nervous, staring straight at the whole box of thunder bullets. The emperor continued to ask: "Where did you get it? As far as I know, Yu Hengqing's official department has not been able to study the method of making this thunder bullet." "It was the princess who found the method of making
this thunder bullet. I specially used this method."
I made some and dedicated them to my father." Wei Jin also replied.
Hearing this, the eyes of the emperor and the ministers all fell on Wei Ruo.
Everyone's eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.
The surprise in the eyes of Chu Heng, who was closer, was the most obvious.
On the contrary, Chu Lan, who was sitting opposite Wei Ruo, looked much calmer than the others.
Because if his guess was correct and Princess Rui and Xu Heyou were the same person, he wouldn't be surprised that Princess Rui could do these things.
"Is this something that Princess Rui is looking for?" the emperor asked Wei Ruo.
"Yes." Wei Ruo stood up and answered.
"Did you get the manufacturing method, not the already made thunderbolts?" The emperor confirmed to Wei Ruo.
"Yes." Wei Ruo replied.
"How to find it?"
"I learned something about thunder bombs from my father. On that day, the Lu Mansion exploded. I also collected the remnants afterwards, and based on this, I deduced the production method. With some luck, God blessed me. I will really let my concubine try it out." Wei Ruo replied.
When Wei Ruo said this, everyone was shocked.
Everyone was amazed.
Does Princess Rui still have this ability? What Yu Heng, the official of Qing Dynasty, failed to do after so much effort, was actually done by a woman?
Chu Heng looked at Wei Ruo intently, his eyes full of surprise and annoyance.
Chu Lan stared at Wei Ruo with eyes that became deeper and deeper.
The emperor also waited for a while before continuing to ask Wei Ruo: "What about the copper thing here?" "This is a
heavy-duty front-loading smoothbore cannon, which can be loaded with thunderbolt bullets to increase the effectiveness of thunderbolt bullets. The shooting range is several times farther than that of manual throwing." Wei Ruo explained.
Everyone was shocked again.
How could there be such a thing?
Wei Ruo knew why everyone was so surprised. In this world, copper cannons had not yet appeared. Compared with the simple firearms they used before, copper cannons directly jumped a level.
The emperor continued to ask Wei Ruo: "Where did you get this thing?"
"I made it based on the drawings drawn by my master." Wei Ruo replied.
"Your master?"
"Yes, I spent my childhood in the mountains to maintain my health. When I was seven years old, I met a master of Tiangong. With the consent of my parents, I worshiped him as my master. However, I was young at that time and only had some superficial knowledge. Only when you grow up now can you understand the meaning of the drawings left by the master." Wei Ruo replied.
Wei Ruo specifically emphasized that he was young at that time, so it would not be too outrageous to become a disciple at a young age.
As for her childhood experiences, as long as they were not too outrageous, she could make them up as much as she wanted, but the Wei family had to cooperate with her in lying, unless they wanted the world to know that Wei Qingwan was not a biological child of the Wei family.
It is well known that Wei Ruo lived in the countryside when she was young. When everyone learned that she was going to become Princess Rui, they had already found out about her past.
Wei Ruo's speech made all the officials, including the emperor, look at Wei Ruo in disbelief.
After listening to Wei Ruo's explanation, the emperor said: "If this thing is really as powerful as you said, I will definitely reward you!" "I don't dare to ask for a reward. I and the prince only hope to be rewarded.
" If the common people can do their best to defeat the Japanese pirates with this thing, they will be satisfied." Wei Ruo replied.
"Okay, okay!" Emperor Long Yan was delighted and said "Okay" twice, "Prince Rui and Princess Rui are interested! This is the best gift I have received this year!"
Others gave verbal blessings, but King Rui actually gave a big gift to help the emperor solve his problems!
How could the emperor not be happy?
Then the emperor raised his wine glass and said, "May God bless my great cause!" The ministers stood up quickly, raising their wine glasses and seconded: "May God bless my great cause!" When
Chu Lan raised the wine glass, she looked at Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo felt the fiery gaze, but she chose to ignore it.
Chu Lan's attitude toward her would not affect what she wanted to do.
Chu Heng on the side also changed his previous attitude and looked at Wei Ruo several times.
He was not interested in women, so he never cared whether Wei Ruo was a stunning beauty or a vulgar fan. But today, Princess Rui gave him a big surprise.
His appreciation for Princess Rui has exceeded his appreciation for women.
After the climax of the gift presented by Prince Rui and his wife, the subsequent singing and dancing seemed boring.
Until the end of the banquet, everyone was still full of curiosity and surprise at the gift given by Prince Rui and his wife.
The emperor left the scene with Concubine Qi and Concubine Hui, and the others also got up and left.
Wei Qingwan, who was sitting in the seat, had a pale face, as if a body-holding spell had been cast on her.
King Yu and Princess Yu were about to leave, but she was still sitting there in a daze, motionless.
"What's wrong with you?"
Qi Shijing noticed something was wrong with Wei Qingwan, and she reached out and touched Wei Qingwan's arm.
Wei Qingwan was startled, her eyes filled with fear. She didn't come back to her senses until she saw that the person in front of her was Qi Shijing.
"I...concubine..." Wei Qingwan was so confused that she forgot how to respond.
"What's wrong with you? Did your sister's incident scare you?" Qi Shijing asked with concern.
"No...it's not..."
Wei Qingwan didn't hear too much about Thunderball. She was completely shocked by Prince Rui's appearance.
Prince Rui looks a lot like Wei Jinyi!
But Wei Jin is also the bastard of the Wei family, and he is already dead!
Maybe the lights in the square were not bright and there was some distance between them, so she saw it wrong?
Or maybe there are similarities between people, this King Rui just looks a bit like Wei Jinyi?
"If anything happens, let's talk about it after we return to the palace." Qi Shijing said to Wei Qingwan.
"Yes." Wei Qingwan was still a little distracted.
Because they were far away, Old Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei did not see Prince Rui's appearance like Wei Qingwan.
The two elders stood up with the help of their maid. They were about to go back home and were surrounded by people.
Everyone warmly congratulated the two.
"Uncle, I'm so lucky!"
"Princess Rui actually has such abilities, it's a blessing for my great career!" "
Uncle, you have great foresight!"
"Uncle, I hope you can give me more advice in the future..." "
... ..."
Old Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei could only respond with a smile, with joy on their faces but a little weak in their hearts.
Because they just learned about these things about their granddaughter today.
Back at Uncle Zhongyi's Mansion, the two elders, who were already very tired, did not wash up and fall asleep under the service of their servants. Instead, they ordered someone to notify their sons and daughters-in-law, and summoned them all to Shou'an Hall.
