Chapter 529 It turned out to be a leaky cotton jacket
Soon, the carriage rushed towards the palace gate.
At this time, in Longxuan Palace, Mu Yihan had just been furious and his face was still irritated.
It was not for anything else, but the old master of the firearms workshop made a mistake in the ratio of lead balls and gunpowder when making fire guns, and made twenty wrong guns in a row.
The firearms soldiers were completely unaware of it, and as a result, five or six of them were injured during practice, and one of them even lost his arm.
"This is not the first time, it happened once last month, and it happened again this time! Not to mention the waste of materials, what about the soldiers' arms that were blown off? Who will pay for it!" Ali clenched his fists in annoyance, and rarely got angry.
Mu Yihan sneered, his fingers turning pale, "Nanji is short of talent. If there is no one to replace you, you will be exiled."
Several old teachers trembled and kowtowed on the ground.
At this moment, a joyful voice, like a beam of warm sunshine, flew into the palace.
"Daddy, your little cotton jacket is here. Have you missed me these two days~"
Mu Yihan looked up when he heard the voice, "Huh? Is Nuobao here?"
"Come on, let daddy see why you want to go back to the palace today?"
There was a bit of sourness in these words, but more of it was pampering for the little guy.
Ali immediately ordered the teachers to go down, so as not to be a nuisance here.
Little Nuobao stepped over the high threshold, like a little butterfly, and suddenly jumped into Mu Yihan's arms, and couldn't help rubbing against him coquettishly.
Mu Yihan picked her up, and the displeasure on his face had long gone, replaced by only surprise.
When the little fat girl raised her head again, she smiled and tilted her head, with her index finger on her chin, and deliberately said, "Daddy, Nuobao has good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Mu Yihan was immediately interested when he heard it.
"Oh? Then Daddy will suffer first and then enjoy the sweetness. Listen to the bad news first." Mu Yihan cooperated lovingly.
The little fat girl shrugged her shoulders and said seriously, "Hey, the bad news is that daddy is going to go broke, and he has to spend a lot of money!"
"Huh? Why is that?" Mu Yihan knew that she was keeping him in suspense, and poked her chubby cheeks and said, "Fatty, what's the good news?" "
The good news... hehe, it's that we have developed a new firearm! One can blow up a lot of places, and can blow the Wala army to pieces!" Little Nuobao held his breath, then clapped his hands and laughed.
"What?" Mu Yihan looked surprised, "New firearms, are you serious? Show daddy!"
Little Nuobao clapped his hands quickly, and Lin Chunlai was summoned, so he stepped in nervously.
Perhaps because Longxuan Palace was too majestic, Lin Chunlai hardly dared to raise his head, and even bumped into the large gilded incense burner and almost fell.
Xiao Nuobao then told Mu Yihan about Lin Chunlai's skills and the birth of the new fire thunder egg.
The more Mu Yihan listened, the brighter his eyes became.
Nanji actually has such a talent?
Then why should he worry about the old teachers in the Ministry of Industry being useless!
"Are you Lin Chunlai? Tell me, what is the result of the new fire thunder egg that the princess mentioned?" Mu Yihan took a seat with his daughter in his arms, his eyes flashing with expectation that he could not hide. Lin
Chunlai was not so timid and nervous only when talking about firearms, and he blurted it out in one breath.
"My Lord, the fire bomb egg that the princess gave me has some unknown materials, so it is difficult to make it exactly the same, but I have at least restored 90% of its power."
"If the army is standing closely together, only one egg can injure nearly a hundred people!"
Mu Yihan was excited and slammed his big hand with distinct joints on the table.
"Great, in the past, two fire bombs were thrown, and at most ten people were injured. Yours is more than ten times stronger."
"Such a talent, I will not let down Nan Ji."
"As the princess agrees, I can grant you the position of Xiao Sima of the Ministry of War, a third-rank official. From now on, Nan Ji's firearm manufacturing will be in your hands!" Mu Yihan was very decisive.
Xiao Sima of the Ministry of War?
Little Nuobao blinked in surprise. This is what the Minister of War meant, but it is the highest official position besides the Shangshu.
Lin Chunlai's face flushed red, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak.
After holding it in for a long time, he quickly kowtowed, "Thank you, Imperial Master, for your kindness, and thank you, Princess, for your recommendation."
Mu Yihan lowered his eyes, looked at the girl in his arms, and pinched her fat hand with emotion.
"Nuobao, you really helped daddy a lot, you are really daddy's little lucky star. Daddy was worried about the matter of the firearms master, and you sent such a capable person!"
Little Nuobao smiled and puffed up his cheeks, and said coquettishly in a sweet voice, "Who made me daddy's little cotton-padded jacket? Daddy is cold, of course I have to keep daddy warm~"
Mu Yihan's eyes were moved, and he was just about to hug this little treasure.
Who would have thought that at this time, the little fat girl stretched out her white palms, twisting and turning with a smile, "Then Daddy, will you give Nuobao a reward~"
"Reward? Of course." Mu Yihan immediately called Ali and said with a smile, "Quick, give the princess the pair of golden Pixiu and the pair of golden Qilin that I got earlier."
But unexpectedly, the little Nuobao shook his head and said, "I want the gold too, but Daddy will hold it for me first. This time, Daddy, can you give me a red-billed goose first? I want to take it to Xiaojiu Chongtian for barbecue and attract customers to the villa!"
Red-billed goose?
Roast it?
Mu Yihan and Ali took a breath of cool air. That was a rare thing that was tributed from Persia, and there were only three of them.
Even in Persia, there are no more than ten of these geese, and they are regarded as treasures by their citizens!
"Just now you said it was a caring little cotton-padded jacket, but look, Imperial Master, now it's leaking! That wild goose is precious, how can it withstand a fat, greedy girl like you!" Ali couldn't help but get anxious.
In Longxuan Palace, the eunuchs and palace maids all tried to hold back their laughter.
In this world, only their little princess dares to be so arrogant.
Mu Yihan was also extremely helpless, but he had no choice but to spoil his concubine.
At best, he could only agree to send all three red-billed geese in the royal enclosure to his concubine's little ninth heaven.
"But the premise is that you can only keep them for viewing, not for eating meat!" Mu Yihan emphasized patiently.
Little Nuobao was very satisfied, so he led the three red-billed geese to the Little Ninth Heaven with gongs and drums, and attracted a large group of people to watch.
Look, it made a lot of money for the villa again!
The little fat girl knew too well what a "gimmick" was.
Soon, Mu Yihan made arrangements for Lin Chunlai.
At present, the fact that they have developed a new firearm must be kept secret from the outside world, and the Wala people and the saint must not know about it, otherwise they will lose this advantage.
Therefore, Lin Chunlai's next job must be transferred outside the capital to avoid leaks.
As for the previous explosion in the military camp, the brothers in the Liaodong Camp also deliberately spread the news, saying that a firecracker workshop caught fire, so there was such a big commotion to cover it up.
That night, Lin Chunlai was sent to a carriage and rushed to Cangcheng overnight.
Xiao Nuobao came to see him off in the moonlight, "You have worked hard this time, and you have to leave Beijing to do things secretly. But don't worry, as long as we solve the Wala, you can return to Beijing to take up your post."
Lin Chunlai didn't feel wronged at all, but was grateful in his heart. He kowtowed to Nuobao twice before getting on the carriage.
After he left, Xiao Nuobao looked at Jiang Fengze and said seriously, "Third brother, the remaining personnel assigned to Lin Chunlai, as well as the asphalt, gunpowder, sulfur and other materials used in manufacturing, must be sent separately, otherwise the target will be too big and it will be easy to be detected."
Jiang Fengze immediately agreed, and then found several of his most reliable confidants and arranged for them to transport them in batches.
At most, one carriage could be filled at a time.
In the following days, Gu Yiyi made her usual offerings, sometimes a few long guns, short guns, and crossbows.
Sometimes, it was some snacks and candies in strange bags.
Little Nuobao happily accepted all of them, lying on the bed, showing off like a little squirrel, eating with a crunching sound.
I really don’t know if Gu Yiyi knew that all the diligent offerings in the past few days had fallen into her little fat belly, would she want to die of anger!
