Chu Weiyue and a few soldiers sat downstairs and ate.
At the same time, Wen Jingchi, Deputy General Zhou, and several other generals came into the room.
Lieutenant General Zhou took out an arms map from his arms and sighed in confusion.
"This is a deterrent weapon of the Wateng clan on the front line. It is because of the production of this weapon that countless of our soldiers were killed and injured. This was stolen by our insider at a risk of his life. So far, no one has been able to understand this device. Your Majesty, do you have any good ideas to restrain it?"
Deputy General Zhou hung the picture on the wall next to him, trying to let Wen Jingchi take a look to see if he could figure out the trick.
This picture stumped Wen Jingchi, as he had never seen such strange artillery.
No one else had seen it either, so they began to discuss how to restrain themselves.
At the same time, Chu Weiyue had just finished eating and stretched comfortably. He felt that the market was particularly lively and planned to go for a walk.
Several young soldiers accompanied her and went out with her to buy some snacks, some beautiful clothes and pearl hairpins. Chu Weiyue returned home with a lot of things.
Halfway through the journey, I suddenly thought that Wen Jingchi probably hadn't eaten yet, so we should have finished chatting after such a long time.
She knew Wen Jingchi's taste and wanted to cook it herself so that he could taste her cooking skills.
She is an expert at making dumplings, and the fillings she makes are delicious and sweet.
Chu Weiyue borrowed their kitchen, made some steaming beef and scallion dumplings, and sent them to Wen Jingchi as a midnight snack.
Because they both lived in the same room, Chu Weiyue didn't even knock on the door and went straight in.
"Haven't you eaten yet? Come over here and bring you some midnight snack."
Glancing at Wen Jingchi, Chu Weiyue spoke in a cold tone, sounding without a trace of emotion.
The people who were discussing the issue were all speechless, and no one wanted to continue talking.
Chu Weiyue didn’t think it was a big deal, since Wen Jingchi had more secrets than before.
She had also noticed it, so she didn't think much about it, but instead set her eyes on Wen Jingchi.
"Why don't you eat it? Is it because I didn't cook it well?"
After discussing for such a long time, Wen Jingchi was indeed hungry, but how could he have the nerve to eat in front of so many people?
Besides, they are studying important things.
Chu Weiyue ignored Wen Jingchi and looked directly at the arms map next to him, and his eyes immediately lit up.
I never thought that there are such arms maps nowadays. The development is really rapid.
According to her understanding, this kind of weapon should not appear in this era.
I couldn't help but sigh a little, this wisdom is really unparalleled.
A general next to him couldn't help but cough and set his eyes on Wen Jingchi.
"Your Highness, this is a military and national issue, and it's something we men should worry about. Isn't it inappropriate for the young lady to be here? Will it distract her from her work?"
He spoke very politely. How could Wen Jingchi not understand what he meant? He was just worried that Chu Weiyue would spread what they discussed.
How could Wen Jingchi not believe her? He rejected the man's suggestion without hesitation.
"It doesn't matter. One more person means more strength."
Another general couldn't help but sneer softly.
"Your Highness, it's easy for you to say that. Throughout history, it's impossible for women to follow the army during a battle. How many wise ministers and brave generals were ruined by beauty in the end? I hope Your Highness can correct himself and not be tempted by beauty..."
"Your Majesty, I think General Wang is right. As the saying goes, when you are on the march or fighting outside, you must be careful at all times. If you covet beauty, it will definitely lead to many accidents."
In their mouths, Chu Weiyue seemed to be a beauty who brought disaster.
Chu Weiyue had no intention of arguing with them. She just rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction. This group of people were really petty to the extreme.
My presence here doesn't bother them at all. More people means more strength. But they just can't stand me, simply because she is a woman.
These men always think that they are stronger and more powerful than women.
Chu Weiyue glanced at them calmly and sighed: "In this case, I will leave."
Wen Jingchi grabbed Chu Weiyue's wrist and said, "You don't have to go. You have made so many contributions in the past. I believe you should be able to see some clues from this munitions map. Why don't you help us take a look?"
Hearing this, another general refused without hesitation.
"Your Highness, this is a matter of state. How can a woman look at something so important? This is absolutely not acceptable. The young lady should be allowed to leave."
"You're right. We should let the young lady leave. She shouldn't worry about such an important matter."
Whether they spoke gently or harshly, their meaning was very clear: they hoped Chu Weiyue would leave immediately.
Wen Jingchi sneered coldly: "How many of you can do what Chu Weiyue did in the northern arid area before? Why do you think she should leave now?"
This sentence made some people react. Deputy General Zhou, who had been silent just now, nodded.
"Your Highness is right. The young lady is different from other women. She seemed to recognize the munitions map just now. Why not let her discuss it with you? Besides, she is your fiancée. With her by your side, your Highness will have no worries and can fight the war with peace of mind."
"I think the eldest lady should also stay with the prince. If she goes back, the prince might interfere, which would distract the prince."
Originally, Wen Jingchi was worried that he would be alone, but he did not expect that several generals would stand up and speak for Chu Weiyue.
They quarreled for a while, but in the end, the group supporting Chu Weiyue won.
Chu Weiyue had no intention of listening to their argument. Instead, he had already picked up the munitions map to analyze it.
"If I'm not mistaken, this munitions diagram should be about putting the gunpowder here before firing. It will take a certain amount of buffer time, is that right?"
Chu Weiyue pointed to the back and then to the front, explaining the most basic principles clearly.
General Wang, who had just opposed Chu Weiyue's presence, couldn't help but widen his eyes: "How did you know?"
"It's easy. You'll understand it if you use your brain. When I went to the north, I found that the Ouyang family had a lot of ancient books, so I read some of them. Besides, you've never hunted before. This is the most basic trapping device for hunting. How come you can't even see this?"
Chu Weiyue, on the contrary, mocked the man.
After taking a closer look, the man frowned in embarrassment. It did look a bit like a hunting trap, but it was also a little different, so they were slow to figure it out.
"Okay, that's all for today. Go back and think about how to deal with their weapons. Let's try to make them as soon as possible to fight against them, or make sure their weapons can't be fired. After all, it takes a certain amount of time for them to load the gunpowder and fire."
