Chapter 171 Doubt
Lu Chengting knew that his grandmother had always been strict with him, and had high expectations of him since he was a child. It was because he shouldered the burden of the entire Zhen Guofu, and his grandmother was worried that if he spoiled him, he would become a playboy who would accomplish nothing.

Although the grandmother is not as close and easy-going to him as the second and third brothers, but he can understand.

When Xiao Jinyue married him, he guessed that maybe his grandmother would be a little displeased with her background, but at most she would be disappointed, and he would not have any murderous intentions towards her.

Besides, my grandmother has always believed in Buddhism, and whenever my grandfather went to war, he would live in Famen Temple to fast and pray for blessings.The grandmother also said that she was not only praying for her grandfather, but also for those innocent people who lost their lives in the war.

Although something was wrong in Songhetang, such a grandmother with a heart of Buddha, no matter how much she disliked her wife and was terribly disappointed in her, she would not think of killing her.

Lu Chengting reviewed the matter reported by the dark guard again, but he still didn't find anything related to his appearance.

But Xiao Jinyue's expression and tone when she suspected that he was picked up did not seem to be joking. She must be suspicious of something, but he was very sure that he was the eldest son of his parents.

If he was picked up, how could it be possible for him to inherit the position of the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion.

Lu Chengting thought and thought, but he didn't expect that Anshen tea had anything to do with his appearance.

"Go to Songhe Hall again, try to find the medicine dregs of the Anshen Tea, and send it to Imperial Physician Zheng to see if there is anything wrong. Remember not to alarm anyone."

"Yes."

With a flash of his body, Dongli left Shi'an Garden.

Xiao Jinyue didn't know that Lu Chengting was suspicious of the tranquilizing tea. She opened up and checked the wounds of the injured guards and hidden guards, and found that there was nothing wrong. After disinfecting them, she put new medicine on them and bandaged them again. good.

These injured people were full of praise for Xiao Jinyue's medicine. Although they didn't know medical skills, they could still tell whether the medicine was good or not because they were often injured.The golden sore medicine given by the imperial concubine, they started to stop the bleeding as soon as they applied it on the wound. This medicine was even more effective than the medicine in the hands of the imperial physician.

Having a concubine with superb medical skills is equivalent to an extra guarantee for their lives. Everyone feels that in the future, the status of the concubine should be raised to be as important as the concubine.

After treating the guard's wound, Xiao Jinyue returned and began to give Lu Chengting acupuncture and massage.

"The tendons in your legs are recovering well, and you will be able to stand up in about ten days and a half months."

It's really uncomfortable to sit and not move every day. Although Lu Chengting didn't show it on the surface, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"I hope you don't reveal this matter yet. I still don't know who is behind the scenes."

"Don't worry, no one else will know except me."

After Xiao Jinyue finished acupuncture, she found a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, silently wrote down the weapon forging technique improved by her cousin in her previous life, and then took it to Lu Chengting.

Lu Chengting didn't take the sword forging technique she mentioned into consideration at first, took the paper handed over by Xiao Jinyue, and originally planned to read it casually to pass the time, but he didn't expect that after only a few glances, his expression became dignified .

Although Xiao Jinyue gave him only a dozen thin sheets of paper, the sword forging technique recorded on it was very detailed, from melting and refining the iron block, removing impurities, the number of times of folding and beating, quenching method, strength, carburizing The method, the temperature of the fire, etc., are all recorded in great detail.

Although he doesn't know how to forge swords, he can also see that the continuous forging method is probably not simple.If a master with forging technology is allowed to forge according to the above records, maybe the forged swords are of a higher level than those forged by the Armament Bureau.

Lu Chengting studied the dozen or so pieces of paper over and over again, the more he looked at them, the brighter his eyes became, and the more excited he became.As a general, he knows the importance of weapons too well.

It's just that the forging efficiency of the Weapons Bureau is not high, and the number of swords forged each time is limited, and the forged weapons are always scrambled by the generals in the court.

The high-ranking generals are better, and the weapons in their hands are still intact and sharp, but the soldiers at the bottom rarely get the newly forged swords from the Military Bureau.

They can almost only get the swords they have eliminated from the hands of the generals at the next level.If you are lucky, you can get a complete weapon. If you are unlucky, it is common for the weapon you get to have a gap.

Furthermore, not every batch of swords made by the Military Weapons Bureau is of good quality. Sometimes the swords in hand look sharp, but they are not hard enough. There were large and small gaps, and some even broke the whole knife without cutting a few times.

If the forging technique given by Xiao Jinyue is really feasible, doesn't it mean that each of his subordinates can have a good weapon?

The more Lu Chengting thought about it, the more excited he was, he quickly summoned a secret guard and handed him the paper in his hand, "Give this blacksmithing technique to Tie Da quietly, and ask him to forge a long sword according to the method recorded above. In addition, at night, send someone to transport some of the scrap iron discarded by the General Weapons Bureau back to the Iron University, and ask him to try the scrap iron refining mentioned above, whether it is feasible."

Tie Da is a swordsmith he rescued in the early years. His skills are not inferior to those of the Military Weapons Bureau, and sometimes he will help him repair some damaged swords.

The imperial court forbade generals to forge weapons privately, but judging from his poisoning in the army and his grandfather's accident at the border, he felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart.

His grandfather taught him to be loyal to the emperor and the court since he was a child. Although he had no intention of rebelling, but now...he has a faint thought in his heart-he doesn't want to be a fish waiting to be slaughtered by others.

The dark guard took the papers from Lu Chengting's hands, glanced at the words on them, and immediately became excited.

"Master, this, this..."

Lu Chengting could understand the excitement of the hidden guard, after all, he was already expecting the effect.

"Don't say anything, let Tie Da build it quietly, and bring it to me after the long sword is forged."

"Yes, this subordinate will go right away."

Xiao Jinyue didn't know that Lu Chengting had someone make a long sword according to the forging technique she gave so quickly. She gave Lu Chengting acupuncture and massage, and then went to eat and wash.

After working all day, she was extremely tired, and after washing, she returned to the dormitory, only to find Chi Yan lying on the big bed waiting for her.

"Girl, girl, they bullied you, so I set fire to their house, are you relieved?"

As soon as Chi Yan saw her, he immediately chattered.

Xiao Jinyue's eyes widened, she glanced at the room inside, and asked Chi Yan in a low voice, "Did you set the fire in the ancestral hall?"

Chi Yan held his head high and said triumphantly, "That's right, I burned it. Hmph, they are too bad, if they still bully you next time, I will steal all their treasures and give them all to you."

Xiao Jinyue was unable to support her forehead, but she didn't expect this little guy to set fire to the ancestral hall in order to vent her anger.
