Chapter 507: The Little Sweetheart Has a Big Picture
After lunch, everyone talked about Wala and some family matters, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.
Mu Yihan became familiar with the Jiang family, and broke the rule of "no talking while eating and no talking while sleeping", and also talked about some interesting stories in the court.
The little Nuobao was obediently holding the rice bowl, and at the same time, her little mouth kept chattering, enjoying the delicious food on the table.
Unknowingly, the whole family had put down their chopsticks, and only she was still puffing up her cheeks to help, like a little squirrel hoarding food.
But when other squirrels hide food, they put it in their cheek pouches.
Unlike her, a fat girl, she just poured it all into her stomach!
When she saw that the last piece of ribs was about to be "put into her pocket", Mu Yihan stared at her with the rest of his eyes and confiscated the bowl and chopsticks.
"Didn't Daddy say that we should be moderate in our diet?" Mu Yihan reached out his hand and touched the girl's belly.
The soft touch was gone, replaced by a small bulging "hill".
Little Nuobao knew that he was in the wrong, so he turned his little face away and pretended not to hear, but his little hand touched the table again, grabbed a barbecue bamboo skewer, and put it to his mouth and licked it.
The venison on it had been eaten up long ago, and the remaining fragrant meat smell could make her lick it for a long time.
Seeing her greedy face, the hearts of the whole family were hit, and they almost turned into soft water.
Feng leaned forward and wanted to feed her, but because the national teacher was staring at her, she had to reluctantly stuff it into her mouth.
Seeing that it was getting late, Mu Yihan wanted to "kidnap" the girl and bring her back to the palace to live for two days.
So he said, "Nuobao, your third brother and his friends are practicing muskets in the parade ground this afternoon. I heard it was very lively. Daddy will take you to see the excitement, okay?"
The parade ground was just outside the Qingque Gate.
It was only a few dozen steps away from the palace gate.
After the girl was tired of playing, she could just go back to the palace with him.
Little Nuobao put down the bamboo stick, wiped his greasy little mouth, and hurriedly got down to put on his shoes, "Nuobao, can I go and see? That's great, I've never seen a musket before, and I heard it's very powerful, I must go!"
The plan to "kidnap the girl" was about to succeed. Mu Yihan narrowed his eyes and was about to take a handkerchief to wipe the girl's dirty hands.
Who knew that at this time, Feng Hu also said excitedly, "What? There are muskets to watch? Then let's go with my sister. That thing is very powerful. I heard that firing a musket will shake your arms!"
Feng Jing's eyes rolled and he followed him to the ground.
"Second brother is right. It's just right for us to watch it. We can also take my sister back home, so there is no need for the national teacher to send her off again."
He could see that the national teacher wanted to take his sister away!
Mu Yihan's mouth twitched. What? This kid wants to get involved?
He threw down the handkerchief he was using to wipe his hands and deliberately grabbed Feng Jing's sleeve to wipe his young lady's chubby hands.
"The musket is very powerful. If you go there, you'd better be careful of being used as a target." Mu Yihan said lightly.
"Also, didn't you enter the Imperial College? Do you have much free time for studies? How come you have time to go out all day?" Mu Yihan looked at him askance.
Perhaps the Imperial College's winter schedule should be cancelled, so that this boy who paints can be busy.
The students of the Imperial College were still having fun in their respective houses at this time.
Little did they know that their carefree days would soon be put to an end by Jiang Fengjing himself...
Mrs. Feng was still sensible. She came over and pushed her sons away, glaring at them, "How can you have the time to join in the fun? Fenghu! We've finished eating the dried green onions at home. Go to the farm this afternoon to get some back."
"And Fengjing, it's time to update your picture book. The bookstore clerk sent a letter two days ago, saying that if you don't send a new one, razor blades will be sent to his doorstep again!"
The two of them were discouraged and had to stop sticking to their sister.
Mu Yihan was also satisfied. He bent down, put on a rabbit fur vest and a deerskin hood for Xiao Nuobao, and took her out.
The carriage creaked and drove through the cold wind on the hard ground.
There was a gust of cold wind outside the car, but the inside was filled with the warmth of the firebox, making little Nuobao squint her eyes in comfort and sweating a little from the heat.
The parade ground was not far from the Jiang family.
Crossing the center of the street and heading south, half a mile away, a series of "bang bang" sounds were heard.
Mu Yihan tightened Nuobao's hood to cover her ears, "Cover your ears, the sound of the musket is too loud, be careful not to damage your hearing."
Little Nuobao nodded, but she was more excited than cautious.
She grabbed her father's big hand with her little hand, jumped off the carriage, and walked straight into the parade ground.
In order to train the firearms army, a courtyard was specially cleared in the parade ground, and several scarecrows and targets were inserted inside, all of which were now riddled with holes.
The soldiers practiced with great concentration. They had blisters on their palms and their shoulders were extremely sore, but they still dared not slack off. They all stared at the target with red eyes. It was not
until Ali coughed that everyone realized that the national teacher had arrived.
The soldiers hurriedly put down their muskets and came to greet him, not forgetting to kneel down and salute.
"Hello, national teacher."
"Hello, little princess."
Xiao Nuobao saw their fatigue, raised his little hands, and said in a serious and crisp voice, "You are all soldiers who have shed blood and sweat for the country. Just salute your father. I am still young. My current comfort and wealth are all due to your protection. How can I deserve your courtesy?"
When these words came out, the soldiers were very surprised, and some even raised their heads with emotion.
It's good enough that the little princess, who lives in luxury, doesn't take advantage of her status to be arrogant. It's really unprecedented that she can say such a profound word.
No wonder the Lord National Master loves her so much, she turns out to be such a warm and sweet girl.
Not to mention that the Lord National Master loves her, just based on those two sentences just now, their hearts were captured, and even the fatigue in their bodies was instantly reduced by half.
It feels like I can practice for another three days and three nights.
Mu Yihan slightly side-glanced at the chubby face of the young lady, the doting in his eyes was like honey, almost overflowing.
The soldiers here are from the Black Armor Army and the Liaodong Camp.
Seeing that the Lord National Master was in a very good mood, they also relaxed and knelt on one knee to the little Nuobao before they were willing to stand up.
At this time, Jiang Fengze rushed over upon hearing the noise and asked in surprise, "Nuobao, Imperial Master? Why are you here?"
He just came from the dormitory, his clothes were still in disarray, revealing his big shoulders.
Xiao Lanyi, who followed behind, also had no belt around her waist, and her face was red, looking embarrassed.
"You two!" Mu Yihan's eyes widened. He
thought that these two people had taken a break from their busy schedule and had "accidentally fired" in the dormitory.
He closed his eyes in contempt, finding it difficult to look directly at them.
At this moment, he heard Jiang Fengze "hiss" again, "Xiao Lanyi, I told you to be gentle!"
Mu Yihan opened his eyes in surprise, and saw that Jiang Fengze had turned sideways.
Xiao Lanyi was using her belt to tie his arm tightly. There was blood on the belt, and it turned out that she was bandaging the wound.
"Third brother, how did this happen? You are injured!" Xiao Nuobao's eyes widened, and he rushed forward distressed.
Jiang Fengze shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, just when we were practicing muskets, a brother accidentally missed the target and scratched my arm a little."
He didn't say it clearly, but in fact, the "good brother" was Xiao Lanyi.
Xiao Lanyi also shook his head with guilt.
However, he would never touch that musket again, it was too difficult to use.
Now that he met the national teacher, Jiang Fengze also wanted to report the matter to him.
"Master Imperial Master, we have been practicing muskets hard recently. Some of us even practice day and night. Our hands are covered with blisters, but..." He put on his coat and hesitated, "But muskets are really hard to master. We have achieved little success so far. Our progress is too slow, and I don't know how to report to you."
In fact, there are many people who miss the target like Xiao Lanyi in the training ground.
Xiao Nuobao raised his head and looked at the scarecrow and target in front of him. Only then did he realize that there were very few marks on the center of the bull's eye, which showed that most of them were difficult to aim at. Mu Yihan
raised his eyebrows slightly, "You have been practicing for more than half a month, but you still can't do it? Is this really that difficult?"
After that, he ordered someone to bring a musket, then raised his long arm, and there was a "bang" sound without almost any preparation.
Xiao Nuobao covered his ears.
When I looked up again, I saw that two of the moving scarecrows in front of me had been shot through at the same time.
And they were hit right between the eyebrows!
One of the scarecrows had its head blown apart!
