Chenxi put down her brush, annoyed. The original owner had her memories, but holding this brush felt like holding a weapon weighing a thousand pounds.
The daughter of a scholar couldn't hold a brush, and her paintings were utterly terrible.
She didn't dare write any calligraphy on the drawing, but the feeling of holding the brush told her something was wrong.
Chen Xi chuckled: "My father never taught me to paint."
Di Yingxue nodded in understanding. There were many girls from humble families who couldn't draw, let alone read!
The idea that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent is a common belief among many men who educate their wives and daughters, and many women also abide by this rule.
Di Yingxue's father was quite open-minded and devoted himself to his daughter's education.
Although she rarely discussed matters of state with the emperor, she learned poetry, songs, calligraphy, painting, music, chess, and even the Four Books and Five Classics.
Di Yingxue put down her teacup and carefully put away the crooked drawings that the leader had made.
Then, she sat down at a small table, spread out new drawings, and looked at Chenxi.
Shenxi was pleased with Di Yingxue's intelligence and resilience, and trusted her implicitly.
She described the images in her mind one by one, and Di Yingxue drew them carefully.
After the painting was finished, Chenxi saw it and exclaimed in admiration.
She actually managed to reconstruct 90% of it based on her description.
Di Yingxue is a genius! Her comprehension skills are first-rate.
Then she explained the details to Di Yingxue, who made some adjustments, and even the dimensions were exactly the same.
Shenxi gazed at the blueprint with great relish, and the memories of her past life, which had been fading away, became dear to her once again.
It seems that she not only needs to continue training her body and fully recover her martial arts skills, but also needs to improve her handwriting. Otherwise, she will need to use a pen a lot in the future, and if she can't write calligraphy, it will be too embarrassing and may expose her.
People at this time highly value promises, and if her identity is questionable, it would be tantamount to deceiving those who follow her.
She handed the blueprints to Zhou Ren.
Zhou Ren carefully examined the blueprints. Since childhood, he had been interested in all kinds of crafts and would visit craft masters whenever he had free time, thus learning many miscellaneous crafts.
He had seen blueprints before, but this was the first time he had ever seen such exquisite blueprints.
"The commander's blueprints are really well drawn."
Shenxi touched his nose, his skin very thick, and it was nothing to be ashamed of that he couldn't draw: "This was drawn by Yingxue. I was afraid you wouldn't understand my drawing."
Zhou Ren was stunned!
Even an omnipotent leader has things he can't do?
Well, the leader must be being modest. He was just too tired this time, so he gave the painting to Di Yingxue.
That must be it!
Zhou Ren interpreted Shen Xi's words as her modesty, and felt that he had fully affirmed that the leader was still omnipotent!
Because the blueprints were quite comprehensive, Zhou Ren understood them immediately, and his admiration for his superior was boundless.
After reviewing the blueprints, Zhou Ren immediately assured him, "I will definitely complete the commander's mission!"
"good."
When Zhou Ren, a reliable person, agrees to something, it's because he's absolutely certain of it.
These are the drawings for drilling rigs, including impact drilling tools, rotary drilling equipment, and grab drilling rigs.
Different soil layers require different well drilling methods.
Creating a complete system, allowing for periods of failure, is not something that can be done in a short time.
Chenxi can only wait!
"Let's drill the first type first, which is more suitable for our county. Let's drill a few wells first."
"Yes, just to make one of these, it would take me about a week with my team."
"very good."
They'll probably be working day and night for a week.
Shenxi didn't tell him to take it slow or be careful. At this moment, such words were meaningless; she needed something concrete and preferred to be down-to-earth.
Zhou Ren took the precious blueprints downstairs and immediately began studying them with his men.
With steady steps, Shen Xi met Tang Junyao with Qi Xiuwen.
Tang Junyao is practicing his martial arts. He lives alone in his own courtyard and has been enjoying a carefree life these past two days.
Upon seeing Shen Xi enter with Qi Xiuwen, they guessed who this person was.
Without saying a word, he lunged forward and attacked Chen Xi.
Qi Xiuwen was taken aback and quickly reached out to block, and the two began to fight back and forth.
Qi Xiuwen, dressed in flowing white robes, and Tang Junyao, dressed in ink-black robes, fought without any restraint, their moves fierce and ruthless.
Qi Xiuwen said as he fought, "Junyao, this is the commander, you mustn't be rude!"
Tang Junyao snorted, his extraordinary figure appearing even more aloof: "If my injuries hadn't not been fully healed, could you have stopped me?"
Shenxi watched from the sidelines with her arms crossed. She witnessed Tang Junyao's martial arts skills, which were mainly focused on killing techniques. He would not make a move unless it was fatal.
She suddenly attacked Tang Junyao, wielding a sword from the weapon rack.
She wanted to test the results of her training these past few days.
Since her embarrassing experience hunting tigers, she has been training for half an hour every day and feels that she has become much more agile, but her strength is still insufficient.
Qi Xiuwen had stopped attacking and was now defending himself.
If the strength of the sinking stream is insufficient, then the techniques must be used to make up for it, using slowness to overcome speed. The power of Tai Chi sword is not just empty talk.
It appears gentle and slow, yet it leaves no opening for the opponent to take advantage.
It offers top-notch defense and can capitalize on any openings in the opponent's fast-paced tactics to deliver a fatal blow.
Tang Junyao's deadly and swift killing moves met with resistance from Shen Xi.
Both he and Qi Xiuwen were startled.
Qi Xiuwen had heard that the leader knew kung fu, but he didn't expect that his kung fu was quite good. This sword technique was one he had never seen before.
Tang Junyao was also surprised that a girl could have such abilities. He, the captain of the Third Prince's secret guards, was unable to defeat her.
The Third Prince's secret guards consisted of one leader, two deputies, and ten captains, all of whom were top-notch.
At this moment, Shenxi secretly admired her. In her previous life, she had already mastered Tai Chi Chuan and Tai Chi Sword to a very high level. Even her father said that she had extremely high talent and that if she focused on martial arts, she could become a grandmaster!
However, Tai Chi Chuan and Tai Chi Sword also require internal energy to be effective in order to be truly powerful. In this life, this body has no internal energy and can only rely on techniques to fight.
The Tai Chi sword technique was much weaker, but Shen Xi had already brought it to its full potential. She was only doing so because she thought Tang Junyao was unfamiliar with this kind of swordsmanship. If he were familiar with it, Shen Xi would probably have been defeated long ago.
While Tang Junyao was stunned by the Tai Chi sword, Shen Xi also discovered his weakness.
Such fast-paced moves are suitable for offense, but they will definitely leave gaps in defense.
While Chenxi was defending, a sword strike struck where Tang Junyao had made a mistake.
Without using force, the tip of the sword pierced Tang Junyao's chest.
If he is stabbed in the chest, he will die!
Shenxi merely pierced his skin before retreating swiftly, stopping her sword and staring at him.
Tang Junyao bowed and admitted defeat.
"Commander, Tang Junyao is willing to serve you!"
