After the marriage, the sick and weak husband fell off the horse

Seeing that Rong Shen still seemed a little depressed, Xie Chunchao took his arm and said, "Then I won't go. I'll stay with you."

Rong Shen raised his eyes and smiled at her, saying, "You'd better go."

"If he comes to see you so late, he must have something important to discuss."

After hearing this, Xie Chunchao took the initiative to kiss the corner of his lips and said, "I will be back soon."

What made Qin Yin come to her so late must be the new progress in the weapons they wanted to make.

She hurried to the side hall. After Qin Yin saluted, he said excitedly,
"Your Majesty, the weapon has been developed."

"One that can kill people quickly within a hundred meters."

"One can blow up the strongest city walls."

Xie Chunchao's eyes also lit up, "Did you really make it?"

Qin Yin took out something from his arms and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is it."

This thing is very small, with a long black tube on it, and a wrench underneath the long tube.

Qin Yin handed it to Xie Chunchao and said, "As long as you pull this button, gunpowder will be fired immediately to hurt people."

Xie Chunchao took it, looked at it carefully, and then asked, "How many rounds does it have?"

"Six shots."

"Your Majesty, do you want to try it now?"

Xie Chunchao nodded and said, "Try it."

After the palace man brought the target, Xie Chunchao stood a hundred meters away and turned the wrench. A powerful shock came from the palm of her hand. If she hadn't practiced martial arts for many years, she would have taken a few steps back.

With a loud noise, bursts of green smoke came out of the barrel, and the target a hundred meters away was directly penetrated by the fired gunpowder. The small iron block was nailed to the wall behind the target. .

Xie Chunchao's hands felt numb, but she didn't care about this little thing at all.

She was completely shocked by the power of this thing.

After listening to Qin Yin's introduction, she thought it was just an enhanced version of the peony hairpin that Rong Shen had made for her before, but the moment the gunpowder rushed out, she knew that this thing was a hundred times more powerful than the hidden weapon in her hair.

"Your Majesty, are you satisfied?"

Xie Chunchao walked towards the damaged wall and said, "Satisfied."

"I'm very satisfied."

The smile on Qin Yin's face became more sincere when he heard this. He followed closely and said, "Your Majesty, there is another weapon that is a hundred times more powerful than this one."

"Because it is too noisy and dangerous, I dare not bring it into the palace to show it to His Majesty."

"Your Majesty, would you like to follow me out of the palace and go to the Xishan Campus to see its power?"

Xie Chunchao actually wanted to go and see the power of that thing now, but she still remembered that she promised Rong Shen that she would go back early.

She can't break her promise.

She shook her head and said, "It will be getting late today. I will go with you to Xishan tomorrow to see its power."

Although Qin Yin was a little reluctant, he had no choice but to accept it.

"Okay, tomorrow I will accompany your Majesty to the Western Mountains."

Xie Chunchao looked up at him and said, "You did a good job. You can go back today."

"This matter is settled, I will definitely reward you heavily."

Qin Yin raised his dark eyes and glanced at Xie Chunchao, then lowered his head and said,

"As long as His Majesty is satisfied and happy, it is the greatest reward for me."

Xie Chunchao pursed his lips, but ultimately said nothing and waved him off.

She looked at his thin and tall back and fell into deep thought. Qin Yin is an eccentric and intelligent person. Ever since he appeared, she couldn't see through him.

She didn't understand his sudden surrender and loyalty. With his ability, there was no need to take huge risks to help her.

Today, Yu Ning happened to be there too, so she turned around and asked, "Yu Ning."

"You said you looked familiar to Mr. Qin back then, but now can you remember where you saw him?"

Yu Ning shook her head, "I can't remember."

She had never thought of it that day, and now that it had been so long, she had long forgotten it.

Xie Chunchao put away his gun and walked back.

When she returned, Zexia was already asleep with her wet nurse.

Rong Shen was wearing single clothes and sitting on a small couch with a heating lamp burning. He heard the movement outside the door and looked up at her. When he saw clearly that it was her, a moment of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Why are you back so early today?"

Xie Chunchao sat next to him and leaned against him, "I promised you that I would come back early today."

Rong Shen smelled the smell of gunpowder on her body when she came closer.

He sniffed and asked, "Why do you have such a strong smell of gunpowder?"

Xie Chunchao raised his hand and smelled it. Sure enough, his hand was full of the smell of gunpowder.

She leaned on him and said, "Qin Yin just presented an incredible weapon, I gave it a try."

Xie Chunchao had not told Rong Shen about making weapons before.

Rong Shen was about to ask what kind of weapon it was when he heard the sound of clear and gentle breathing coming from his ears.

He looked sideways and saw that the person who had been talking just now had fallen asleep on his shoulder.

His heart instantly softened, and he gently raised his hand to brush away the black hair on her face, and her deep eyebrows stretched out, turning into a pool of warm spring water.

It must be very hard.

He didn't know what he thought of again, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

In the morning of the next day, Xie Chunchao first announced the blockbuster news that Chu State would soon be integrated with Xia State.

The ministers were shocked and couldn't believe that the world, which had been divided for a long time, could be unified so easily.

Some old ministers secretly guessed in their hearts, had the emperor already expected this day when he abdicated?
After being shocked, all the ministers congratulated Xie Chunchao in unison.

After all the ministers calmed down, Xie Chunchao singled out the Ministry of Rites and said,
"When the world is unified, we will also need a new country name. This matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites. You can think of some auspicious words and submit it."

"As for the resettlement of the Chu officials who will arrive in Xia soon, it will be left to the Ministry of Personnel to handle. It is necessary that every Chu official can be properly resettled and no conflicts will be provoked."

"Yes."

"There is one more thing I want to discuss with the ministers."

"Now that the world is unified, Jianyang's geographical location is a bit out of the way. Should we move the capital to the previous capital of the Jin Kingdom?"

Before the world was divided into three parts, Jin was the last unified country.

When it came to moving the capital, the court immediately exploded. Some people agreed and some opposed it.

Those who agreed agreed with Xie Chunchao's point of view and felt that Jianyang's position was indeed skewed compared to the entire world, making it inconvenient for future management.

Opponents believe that Jianyang is the place where their ancestors have lived for generations, and moving the capital is also a waste of money and people, so there is really no need to go to war.

Historically, the royal capitals of unified countries were not always in central locations.

Seeing the heated discussion among the people, Xie Chunchao said, "In that case, we will discuss this matter after the people from Chu State arrive."

After going to court, Xie Chunchao returned to the palace, changed into plain clothes, and followed Qin Yin to Xishan. (End of chapter)
