"The dowry from Qian Zhou was a great boon for Kang Yi. The elder madam's eyes were opened at the sight of money, and her attitude towards Kang Yi immediately improved. Young miss is not in the manor. Even if the Cheng sisters did their best to suppress her, they could not stop Kang Yi's momentum. She is very good at handling people. The majority of the dowry from Qian Zhou was taken into the manor, and a portion was taken directly into the elder madam's courtyard. A month ago, Kang Yi successfully received the Feng manor's funds from the elder madam. Also, not long after young miss left the capital, she consummated her marriage with Prime minister Feng. Han shi's belly is growing larger with each passing day. Apparently, Kang Yi is taking very good care of her. She has invited ten doctors to take care of her. Fourth young miss' attitude towards her has changed, and Feng Chen Yu has become even closer to her. As for third young miss … "
"What happened to Xiang Rong?" Feng Yu Heng faintly felt that something was off. Not to mention Kang Yi, Han shi's belly was growing larger with each passing day. At that time, Xiang Rong had bumped into her with her clothes disheveled. This matter would definitely become a tumor in Han shi's heart. In the past, she did not dare do anything when she was in the manor. Now that she had left the capital for so long, it was hard to guarantee that Han shi would not have some ideas.
Wang Chuan faintly sighed, "At that time, the matter of Han shi being poisoned by wood ear powder was somehow transferred to the third young miss. She has now been locked up in Pu Du Nunnery for nearly two months."
In regards to this outcome, Feng Yu Heng was not surprised. Before she left, the matter of spirit-altering drug had just occurred. In the eyes of the Feng family, An shi and Xiang Rong had a responsibility that could not be avoided. It was already impossible for them to be on good terms with her. A daughter of a concubine that had lost her backer was someone that could be bullied at will.
"Forget it." She shook her head, "Xiang Rong's personality needs to be tempered. If she is not allowed to experience some things, I fear that child will never grow up. Either way, I will be returning to the capital in a few days. At that time, I will think of something. "
It had been over three months. Including the days before she went into seclusion, she had been away from the capital for a full four months. Four months was enough time for many things to happen. Feng Yu Heng knew that it was not just what Wang Chuan had said. However, if she escaped from that place, she would be able to stay out of it. But once she returned, she would be entangled again.
Huang Quan had already prepared the water. She sat in the bathtub and took a comfortable hot bath. Then, she slept for a whole day. When night fell, Huang Quan woke her up. "The banquet is about to begin. Miss, you have to get up and dress up."
Feng Yu Heng got up in a daze. She had no interest in the gorgeous dress Huang Quan was holding in front of her.
It wasn't easy for a woman to enter the barracks, but this woman had better be well-behaved. She shouldn't go around wearing red and green clothes. It wasn't that the soldiers didn't like to look at her, but they couldn't help but feel anxious after looking at her. It wasn't good for their body and mind.
She pushed the dress away and said to Huang Quan, "I'm already prepared. I don't need this."
Huang Quan didn't think much of it and went to prepare water for her to wash up with. Feng Yu Heng cast her thoughts into her space and opened the cupboard in the lounge. After rummaging for a long time, she finally found a set of treasures that she had treasured for many years at the bottom of the cupboard.
It was a set of women's camouflage clothes and a pair of military whips. It was a long shirt and long pants. The thin material was most suitable for the early autumn weather. Although it was currently midsummer, the night wind in the valley was extremely cold. It was even colder than early autumn, so it was just right to wear this set of clothes.
It was a gift from her father for her fifteenth birthday. From then on, she was destined to have to deal with that army green for the rest of her life. When she was fifteen, she was still in junior high school. Usually, she had to wear the school uniform to school. So, this set of camouflage clothes that she liked very much could only be worn during the holidays for a few days. Later on, when she grew taller, she could no longer fit into this set of clothes. However, because this was the first time she had a set of camouflage clothes in her life, she kept it like a treasure.
She didn't expect that the set of clothes she wore when she was fifteen would come in handy today. Her current body was a bit taller than in her previous life. Although she was only thirteen years old, she didn't feel that the camouflage clothes didn't fit her well. However, Wang Chuan and Huang Quan were dumbfounded. Wang Chuan awkwardly asked her, "Miss, don't you want to wear a skirt over it?"
She was helpless and firmly told them, "No, this set of clothes is like this. Come and take a look." She directed the two of them to come forward and touch the material. "This set of clothes is called camouflage clothes. It's a set of uniforms specially designed for military training and combat. Look at these colors. There are green, yellow, and brown. These colors form an irregular pattern. The purpose is to form a new type of protective color. It's convenient for the wearers to hide in special environments such as jungles, deep mountains, and swamps. It's effective to resist enemy detection and confuse the enemy. You can understand it as the same principle as night clothes. Night clothes are suitable for shadow guards, so this set of camouflage clothes is suitable for army combat. "
Wang Chuan and Huang Quan were originally a bit confused, but the night clothes analogy enlightened them. They instantly understood the beauty of this set of camouflage clothes.
Huang Quan praised, "This is really good stuff."
Wang Chuan, on the other hand, was more attentive than her. She caught Feng Yu Heng's key words, "Miss said that this set of clothes was specially designed. Who designed it? You? "
Feng Yu Heng nodded, "That's right. It was me." What else could she say? Sometimes, it wasn't a good thing for a girl to be too smart.
Fortunately, Wang Chuan didn't ask any more questions. After the two of them helped her wash up, they prepared to leave the tent. As soon as they lifted the curtain, they saw Xuan Tianming at the door. He was sitting in a wheelchair and looking over. The two girls immediately moved aside and made way for Feng Yu Heng.
Feng Yu Heng's outfit made Xuan Tianming's eyes light up. In the past three months, he had seen this girl wear all kinds of strange clothes, but he had never seen this set of clothes. How should he put it? Although the color didn't seem suitable for a girl, it could make her look valiant and heroic. The clothes weren't the biggest highlight. The highlight was the pair of shoes. What material were they made of? Leather? Could leather be made so bright and hard?
Could it be polished so bright? All of this was outside of Xuan Tianming's scope of knowledge. The more he interacted with Feng Yu Heng, the more he felt. This girl had too many fresh and useful things in her head waiting for him to explore and discover. Gradually, he began to like this kind of game. He would always unconsciously guess what this girl could pull out from her sleeves.
He reached out his hand to the girl in front of him. "Wife."
Feng Yu Heng giggled as she ran forward and stuffed her small hand into his palm. "General, shouldn't you give me a reward for the banquet? I am the hero of steel production! "
Xuan Tianming couldn't help laughing. "What do you want?"
She tilted her head and thought for a long time, but she didn't know what to ask for.
Xuan Tianming pinched her small face. "Damn girl, whatever I can give you, you don't have to ask for it. As long as I have it, it's yours. Even if I don't have it, if it's something good, I will find it for you. En, if I can't find it, I'll just steal it. Who cares who it belongs to. "
She felt very satisfied. This future husband was becoming more and more tactful. He was very much to her taste!
The bonfire banquet had already been prepared. Jars of aged wine were opened, and the rich and pure fragrance of the wine could be smelled from far away. Thirty thousand soldiers surrounded the open space in layers. It was a spectacular sight. Some people had already prepared the cattle and sheep to roast over the fire. There were also people who brought out the game they had hunted during the day.
When Feng Yu Heng pushed Xuan Tianming's wheelchair onto the field, everyone put down their positions and greeted them like old friends. There were even some young soldiers who loudly praised, "County princess is so beautiful!"
But someone immediately corrected him. "This isn't called beautiful, this is called heroic spirit!"
Xuan Tianming laughed when he heard this. He turned his head and said to her, "In their eyes, you are a fairy."
Someone with sharp ears heard this and immediately responded, "That's right, county princess is a fairy. Only a fairy can bring something like steel to our Dashun."
When steel was mentioned, it meant that the topic of the banquet was about to enter the main topic. The blacksmiths who had also participated in the banquet stood up and knelt down in front of Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming. One of them took the lead and said, "We are common people who rely on blacksmithing for a living. We thought that being praised as good blacksmiths in our province would be the greatest honor in our lives. Who would have thought that one day, we would be able to contribute to the production of steel in Dashun. When Deputy General Qian summoned us to the barracks, he said that although the production of steel is a secret in Dashun, we won't be killed to keep our mouths shut. In fact, we want to say that even if the general and county princess kill us, we are willing to do so. We have been blacksmithing all our lives, and now we can actually produce steel. If we can die in front of the steel furnace, it will be the pride of our family for generations to come! "
When these words were said, someone behind him immediately expressed his position, "We are willing to devote our lives to producing steel for Dashun. Please rest assured, general and county princess. We, the blacksmiths, and the disciples we brought have already discussed and decided to sign a life and death contract. We will not leave the barracks for the rest of our lives. We will keep Dashun's secret and produce steel for the rest of our lives."
When these words were said, the blacksmiths shouted in unison, "We will keep Dashun's secret for the rest of our lives! We will produce steel for the rest of our lives! "
The cries of the old blacksmiths and young apprentices were naturally not as loud as those of the soldiers. They were full of energy, but Feng Yu Heng couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.
There was nothing more moving than this kind of promise with their lives. She used the technology of producing steel in exchange for these people's lives. In one sentence, she handed over their lives. She said to Xuan Tianming: "We must be worthy of them. If they stay in the barracks to produce steel, they will be Dashun's treasures, not slaves. Their families should receive a better life because of their sacrifice."
Xuan Tian Ming nodded and loudly said: "What county princess Ji An said is correct. From this day forward, you are part of my Northwest army. Whatever the soldiers in the army have, you will have. Whatever the families of the soldiers in the army receive, you will also receive the same treatment. I, Dashun's Ninth Prince, Northwest Army's Commander-in-Chief Xuan Tianming, hereby swear that I will treat you as my family and friends. I will take good care of your families. If your children and grandchildren want to join the army, I will welcome them. If they want to study, I will personally recommend them to Yunlu Academy in Xiao Province. You can rest assured, Dashun will not let you down. I, Xuan Tianming, will also not let you down! "
One by one, the blacksmiths burst into tears. Even the young apprentices were affected and cheered one by one.
A soldier lit up a firework, which exploded in the sky with a bang. Gorgeous flowers bloomed in the sky. A soldier who was roasting a lamb shouted, "The lamb is done roasting! Come and eat the meat! "
The people laughed and went to pick up the wine jugs and walked towards the bonfire. There were also soldiers who handed over two jugs of wine to the two.
Feng Yu Heng put her right hand into her right sleeve and narrowed her eyes at Xuan Tianming: "Guess what I can take out this time?"
