Emperor Chengxuan looked at Lianbao with eyes full of contempt, as if he were looking at a puddle of mud.
Lianbao was furious.
But soon, she thought coldly, what a pity, little Shuangbao will never come back!
At this time, Emperor Chengxuan was thinking about how to deal with this daring mother and daughter.
"Your Majesty, there is news."
Zhou Guisheng suddenly came in to report, "This is the news from Miss Chen Cao! She said that the little princess initially ordered her to find Dali Temple Junior Official Zhou Xu, wanting him to go to Jingzhao Prefecture and arrest the prefect Tang Defan.
“But later on, they sent her a message, not letting Ms. Zhou go, saying she had other plans.
"Now, Miss Chen Cao already knows where the little princess is being held, and she's waiting nearby with other secret guards.
“She said, Your Majesty, please rest assured, the little princess is very capable and has not suffered any injuries at all.
"Also, Miss Chen Cao said that Miss Lianbao once wanted to kill the little princess..."
As Zhou Guisheng spoke, he glanced at Lianbao and told Emperor Chengxuan about Lianbao's attempt to use the ghost of his dead father to kill Xiaoshuangbao.
When Lianbao heard these words, his whole body began to tremble violently with fear!
Little Shuangbao is actually okay?
She was imprisoned in the most secluded underground dungeon in Jingzhao Prefecture. It was said that even the emperor didn't know about the existence of that dungeon...
But she can still pass on information to the outside world?
How is this possible!
But the facts are there.
Lianbao panicked instantly.
At this moment, Emperor Cheng Xuan also swept his eyes, as sharp as a knife, towards her.
"Someone come."
He immediately ordered, "Put them mother and daughter under house arrest, and announce to the public that Zhao Yang'er was canonized as a concubine by me and granted residence in Weiyang Palace, and Lian Bao was canonized as Princess Lian by me!
"They are not allowed to contact anyone!"
Zhao Yang'er and Lian Bao were stunned for a moment.
When they heard Emperor Chengxuan say that he would confer titles of imperial concubine and princess on them, they were all happy for a moment.
But he quickly realized that this was just a temporary measure taken by Emperor Chengxuan to deal with the outside world!
He said he would imprison them!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, spare my life!"
Zhao Yang'er originally had the idea of flying onto a tree branch and turning into a phoenix, but now she was really scared and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, if you dare to do anything to me or my mother, the little princess will never come back alive!"
Lianbao was also very scared, but when she thought that Xiaoshuangbao was in the hands of her biological father, she suddenly felt confident and simply threatened.
Unfortunately, she threatened the wrong person.
Emperor Cheng Xuan didn't even glance at her and directly ordered: "What are you all standing there for? Hurry and take them away!"
The secret guard immediately stepped forward, knocked the mother and daughter unconscious and took them away.
The mother and daughter actually moved into the Weiyang Palace.
It’s a pity that Emperor Cheng Xuan sent secret guards to guard everywhere, so the two of them couldn’t get out at all and could only wait to die here!
At this time, in the secret dungeon of Jingzhao Prefecture.
The other three people imprisoned inside, including Lian Keyuan, suddenly asked to see Tang Defan, saying that they were willing to help Tang Defan make firearms.
"Why are you willing to do it all of a sudden?"
Tang Defan was very surprised.
He looked at the little Shuangbao sleeping obediently in one of the cells, and a look of doubt appeared on his face, "It's been two years, and you guys refused to give in. Why did you change your mind once this little girl was locked up in here?
"explain!
"Did this little girl say something to you?"
Tang Defan looked at Lian Keyuan and the other two viciously.
It seemed as if he would torture them immediately if they dared to lie.
"Master Tang, there's no need to scare us here. It's true that the little princess talked to us, so we agreed to help you make firearms. But there's no conspiracy here. The little princess is actually the daughter of the God of War Su Liao."
Lian Keyuan said coldly, "Su Liao once saved the three of us, and we cannot watch his daughter being killed by you.
“So, the three of us can help you make firearms, but the condition is that we bring the little princess with us!
"Otherwise, even if you kill the three of us, you won't get the firearms!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Defan narrowed his eyes dangerously.
The other two people said the same thing.
As for the fact that Su Liao had done favors for these three people during his lifetime, he was not aware of it.
But what the three of them said was coherent and didn't seem to be false.
However, I have to bring Little Frost with me...
Whatever, he’s just a little baby. How much trouble can he cause?
"Okay, I promise you! But I'm also warning you! Don't try to play any tricks! Otherwise, I'll kill all four of you! And I won't want this firearm anymore!"
Tang Defan threatened them viciously.
"It's a deal!"
Lian Keyuan and the other two immediately agreed.
It is definitely not possible to make firearms in Beijing.
Tang Defan led the four people through a tunnel dug in the dungeon and out, and then sent them on a carriage and took them all the way to a mountain outside the capital.
Little Shuangbao didn't know where this was.
But Mianmian and Yan Yuan were with him. Mianmian was a mountain spirit and remembered these rugged mountain roads very clearly, so there was no need to worry about getting lost.
Soon, they were sent to a mine.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of a cave.
Then the four of them were blindfolded and sent to the cave.
This is an iron ore mine that has been almost mined.
The ore was piled up in the cave, which was very spacious and had a tall ladder. There were many miners imprisoned here, who seemed to be mountain people from nearby. Each of them looked tortured to the point of being almost unrecognizable as a human, and they were all huddled in the dark cave.
"We need pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as sufficient light to draw the drawings."
Lian Keyuan demanded.
"As long as you can truly manufacture firearms, I will satisfy any request you make."
Tang Defan ordered people to bring them what they wanted, including special brushes needed to draw the blueprints.
"There's also food and drink. The little princess has always been delicate and delicate. If we can't let her eat, drink and sleep well, then we won't be able to draw this blueprint well."
Lian Keyuan asked again.
"Haha, you guys really care about your benefactor's daughter! Don't worry, as long as you can make firearms, I'll satisfy you in every way!"
So, after a period of time, Xiao Shuangbao had no freedom here, but he didn't suffer any hardship at all.
She couldn't understand the drawings drawn by Lian Keyuan and the other two, so she ate and drank, slept when she was tired, and drew some talismans on paper when she was bored. She actually lived a very carefree life.
Before long, the three of them finished their drawings.
Next, we will start making firearms according to the drawings!
At this time, Tang Defan suddenly brought someone here!
