Chapter 139 Doubt
Zheng Ji's reaction made Du Fengju a little puzzled.
Because he had changed two identities, he had seen Zheng Ji in many ways. Whether she was teasing Du Fengju for fun, or being respectful and close to Mr. Du Duan, most of her beautiful face looked calm and composed.
There are rare moments when such a faux pas is revealed.
What's going on? He didn't say anything shocking just now, did he?
He was about to explain when he heard Zheng Ji ask hurriedly: "Mr. Du, the bed crossbow you are talking about...can you explain it in detail?"
It turns out that His Highness Chang Ding cares so much about bed crossbow?
"Back to Your Highness, I once listened to my righteousness... My elders once thought that if there was a weapon that could be combined with multiple bows to fire arrows, it would be much easier. What I have been thinking about these days is how to make the weapon he mentioned
Developed.”
Having said that, he explained a little bit.
"Your Highness, if the stolen weapons from Weiwei Temple are really hidden in the Wuge Cache, and I happen to enter at this time, then I will definitely be involved. I have been thinking about how to solve this problem. In the Wuge Cache
Finding the lost weapon is one way. But there is a more thorough way."
"What if I can develop a better and newer weapon than the one stolen from Weiwei Temple?" He said with a smile.
After this incident happened, everyone thought that finding Weiwei Temple's lost weapons was the solution, but he decided to do the opposite.
Research new weapons and replace them.
This solution is easier than searching for weapon blueprints in the vast martial arts library.
The most important thing is that this new weapon that replaces it is not a castle in the air, but can be manufactured.
When he was still young, his adoptive father once imagined such a weapon, but unfortunately he never had the conditions to do it.
He was now in Jingzhao and Wuge, and happened to encounter the Weiwei Temple incident. Although this was a crisis, for him, it was a perfect opportunity.
What reason does he have for not developing it?
It's so worth it to work all day and night for this new weapon.
Not only for himself, but also for his adoptive father, and... for the country.
Once the bed crossbow mentioned by the adoptive father can be successfully developed, it will definitely be used in the military, which can deter foreign enemies and boost the morale of the military. This is a great good thing for the country.
Zheng Ji suppressed the turmoil in his heart and continued to ask: "This bed crossbow... was Mr. Du's elder who came up with it? Can you explain it in detail?"
Although Feng Ju was spoken very quickly just now, she heard clearly that the first thing he said was the word "righteousness".
Presumably, what Feng Ju wanted to say was his adoptive father, Master Lu.
Was the Bed Crossbow originally conceived by Master Lu?
Because it was a bed crossbow, she naturally thought of Xue bed crossbow, who later became very successful in the army.
Xue Chuang's crossbow also fires multiple bows in a row. It also has a long range and accurate target. It has many similarities with what Feng Ju is describing now.
What is the relationship between the two?
The Xue bed crossbow was developed by the Xue family of Empress Xue. It only appeared nine years after Yongning. It would take several years before its appearance, but now...
It's a pity that she doesn't know much about Xue bed crossbow, so she can't distinguish it.
There were so many things pouring out of her mind at once, all intertwined together, and it was almost messy.
Suddenly, a possibility suddenly appeared in her mind.
Could it be that Xue Chunnu is really related to Master Lu?
But at this time, Xue Chunnu had not appeared, and she had never heard Feng Ju mention the Chunnu in her previous life, so she could no longer verify it.
Since Fengju has mentioned the bed crossbow and it was released a few years earlier than Xue bed crossbow, then...she will definitely help Fengju develop this bed crossbow!
Feng Ju is right. To completely solve the problem of Weiwei Temple, another method must be used!
An idea gradually came into her mind, and she immediately said: "Mr. Du, if you need to develop a bed crossbow, there are some people in our palace who can help. If you don't mind, sir, you are willing to move to the martial arts field in our palace.
?”
"..." Du Fengju knew he should refuse. After all, developing new weapons involves too many people.
However, the way he looked at Zheng Jifeng made him unable to say no.
The other party's eyes were so sincere and trusting, as if he had seen him develop a new weapon.
However, he thought about it day and night, and the bed crossbow had not yet been developed.
"Mr. Du, to be honest, there are a group of gentlemen in our palace. Perhaps they can help Mr. Du."
The gentlemen invited back by Zhang Jian all had special skills and had been in extremely poor circumstances. In the eyes of many people, they were just like grassroots.
But in Zheng Ji's view, the most powerful thing about these people is that they can get things done.
As long as they are given direction and requirements, these people can come up with their own ideas and do their best. Now that Fengju is developing new weapons, it is time to use these gentlemen.
She didn't know about bed crossbows, but she knew that most of the time, gathering the strength of everyone would be much better than fighting alone.
Seeing that Du Fengju was still hesitating, Zheng Ji thought for a while and said, "If Mr. Du has concerns, why don't we send these people to Mr. Du's house?"
Now that Feng Ju has changed his identity, everything that goes with it is ready.
Of course Mr. Du Duan of Wuge has a residence in Jingzhao, which is not far from Wuge.
It's just that living here is quite inconvenient.
You must know that Jingzhao Residence is not easy to deal with. The two residences in the courtyard are too small after all, and they may not be able to accommodate so many gentlemen.
Moreover, since the person behind the scenes allowed Fengju to enter the Wuge's treasury, they would probably monitor his movements closely.
If these gentlemen go to Fengju's side, they may attract the attention of the people behind them.
Zheng Jidao knew that Fengju actually lived in Taifu's Mansion, but she probably didn't know that.
Du Fengju quickly made up his mind, shook his head and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, my residence is not suitable for developing new weapons. In that case, I will trouble Your Highness to worry about it."
Pei Yanshan, who was also in disguise, moved his lips, but no words came out.
The young master thought more carefully than he did. Since the young master agreed, it means that going to the Princess Changding Mansion is the best way.
However, are you really not worried that your identity will be exposed?
After hearing his words, Zheng Ji immediately had a smile in his eyes, and his tone was a little high: "In this case, I will ask them to prepare well."
She was really happy because she might be able to help Fengju, and even more so Fengju agreed to enter Princess Changding's mansion.
Even as Mr. Du Duan.
If Fengju enters her residence, she will have more time to spend with him.
The mother-in-law has said that relationships are based on getting along, and it is her selfish intention to have more contact with Fengju.
When he thought of this, Zheng Ji's eyebrows were filled with smiles.
