Due to Luo Peishan's special protection, the rumors about Jingwan had temporarily subsided. However, it was only temporary. It was merely the calm before the storm. Unless Jingwan's marriage could be resolved perfectly and all parties had nothing to say, the crisis attached to Jingwan would not be resolved.
At the same time, Luo Rongping was finally valued by Prince Kang. For Luo Rongping, it was not too late. The so-called 'not too late' meant that he had already taken refuge with Prince Rui. No matter how much he valued him now, it would not be of much use. The so-called 'not too late' meant that he had taken refuge with Prince Rui in order to become a spy in Prince Kang's faction. Even if he was a spy, he would not be of much use if he was not in an important position and could not reach the core. If he wanted to prove his loyalty, the opportunity would come.
The first time he was summoned by Prince Kang, he received unprecedented treatment. It really made Luo Rongping feel fear and trepidation. Fortunately, he was not muddle-headed and knew that there was no way he could get rid of Prince Rui now.
Prince Kang asked Sun Yilin to make an appointment with Luo Jingbo. Sun Yilin agreed, and so did Luo Jingbo.
Originally, when Sun Yilin also made an appointment with Luo Jingbo, he told him that no matter what Prince Kang said, there was only one purpose — to make a joke. In short, he could not agree to anything, and he could not be the subject of ridicule.
To be honest, when he heard Sun Yilin's words, Luo Jingbo was actually quite surprised. Even if he married Yijia, the nature of his marriage with Yijia was not that strong due to the standpoint of Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Sun Yilin did not explain much. It was true that he was a member of Ding General Manor, but he had always avoided Sun Yibin in the past. Even if he was greatly favored by the emperor, he had never participated in political affairs. Later, he completely fell out with Sun Yibin and entered the imperial court as an official. He still hardly participated in factional disputes. There were many things that he did not understand and did not want to understand.
However, after Luo Jingbo met with Prince Kang, Sun Yilin realized that his worries were all unnecessary. It was true that his brother-in-law was candid and casual, but he was not without scheming and did not understand the ways of the world. Anyway, Sun Yilin was just a guest. After listening for a while, he could not help but sigh. He was indeed taught by Luo Shangshu. It seemed that Prince Kang was the one who dominated the conversation, but in fact, it was Luo Jingbo who led the other party by the nose, but Li Hongyi was not aware of it.
Luo Jingbo's straightforwardness depended on who he was dealing with.
In fact, Luo Jingbo did it more obviously. If it was another person, how could he not find the clue? Therefore, Prince Kang's IQ was a shortcoming. Perhaps his IQ was at the level of ordinary people, but the people he came into contact with were all smart, which made him appear a little stupid.
When Sun Yilin was about to leave, he did not expect that Prince Kang would ask someone to bring the courtesan of the brothel to accompany him. Naturally, his face was a little dark. However, although Li Hongyi was his cousin, he did not allow him to interfere. However, the situation that followed was really unexpected to him. Because when the beautiful courtesan approached, she wanted to snuggle into Luo Jingbo's arms. Unexpectedly, Luo Jingbo sneezed several times. "What's the smell on your body? Why is it so pungent?"
The courtesan looked confused, and then she was very helpless. Tears gathered in her eyes.
Prince Kang's face was dark. He waved his hand to let the courtesan get out.
"This commoner has been rude. Prince, please forgive me." He could not help rubbing his nose.
"It has nothing to do with you."
In this way, in the end, it seemed that they talked a lot, but there was no substantive content at all. And the courtesan that Prince Kang was going to send was returned before she could get close.
Luo Jingbo and Sun Yilin left hand in hand. Sun Yilin saw that Luo Jingbo was refreshed and did not feel bad at all. His eyes became more and more strange. "Brother-in-law, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Luo Jingbo smiled at Sun Yilin, the kind that was particularly harmless. "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"
Well, there was no need to ask. Sun Yilin had already determined that he did it on purpose. He pretended so well that even he was deceived. "You can't judge a book by its cover." Sun Yilin once again deeply understood the meaning of this word.
Luo Jingbo still pretended to be stupid and smiled.
Sun Yilin did not ask more. It was good that his brother-in-law had such a heart. He was now more attractive than him.
After returning to the Luo family, Luo Jingbo went directly to see his baby sister.
Although he knew that she did not take the things outside to heart, he could not help but worry about her sometimes.
However, it seemed that she was fiddling with something. After asking, he did not get any answer.
That day, after Luo Peishan went to the yamen, Jingwan brought something to him.
Jingwan often went in and out of the outer study, so everyone had become accustomed to it.
"Little girl, are you looking for grandfather for something?" Luo Peishan looked at the thing in Jingwan's hand.
Jingwan did not say anything. She just handed the thing to Luo Peishan.
Luo Peishan first fiddled with the long cylindrical thing. He was somewhat confused, so his eyes fell on the two pieces of paper. One of them was an unusually fine drawing. "This thing, clairvoyance?"
Jingwan turned around the desk, walked to Luo Peishan's side, and told him how to use it.
In Luo Peishan's eyes, the farthest leaves outside the door of the study suddenly seemed to be in front of him. Luo Peishan was amazed. Clairvoyance, clairvoyance. Although the name sounded exaggerated, it could see very far.
Jingwan did not disturb Luo Peishan and let him fiddle with it. The lens in the telescope was made of the most transparent white crystal. The effect was still inferior to glass. However, Jingwan was very satisfied with the final result.
Luo Peishan finally saw enough. However, after all, he had so much experience and knowledge. Besides feeling that it was very rare, he could not find any other use for it. "Wan Wan, although this thing is exquisite, but …"
"How about marching to war? If the enemy does not see it, I will see it. "
Luo Peishan's eyes suddenly lit up. "It's really wonderful!" Although Luo Peishan had not been on the battlefield, he could imagine the situation. How could this be a cheap toy? It was clearly a treasure with great use.
Luo Peishan looked at the blueprint again. He could more or less understand it. As for the specifics, he directly handed it to the Ministry of Works' Military Weapons Bureau. There was a finished product, and the blueprint was very detailed. If they still could not understand it, the entire Bureau of Military Weapons could go home and hug their children.
Luo Peishan looked at it again and again. Finally, he put down the blueprint and picked up another piece of paper. It was also a blueprint. On it was a crossbow. It was different from the commonly used crossbows, but it was an improved continuous shooting crossbow. Because there was no finished product, Luo Peishan could not see whether this crossbow was good or bad. However, based on the fact that it could shoot continuously, once it was successfully forged, it would definitely be more powerful than the current crossbow.
Luo Peishan solemnly put away the things properly.
"Third girl, what do you want to ask for by bringing this thing here?" It was very obvious that this was to be presented to the Emperor. It was an unusual time. Luo Peishan knew that she should have her own plans.
"Grandfather, do you think that it is possible to ask for the position of Jin Qinwang's di fei?"
Luo Peishan looked at Jingwan's expression change again. There was an indescribable light in his eyes, and he spoke in an extremely calm or indifferent tone, "Third girl, do you know what you are saying?"
Jingwan pursed her lips, "Grandfather, I am very clear about what I am saying. People like Jin Qinwang, others can't wait to avoid him. For me to approach him now, it is indeed very unwise. It may even make people think that I am stupid. But in the current situation, Jin Qinwang is the best candidate. If I become his fiancée, the dilemma will be easily solved. "
Jingwan was very clear. Don't look at how awe-inspiring her grandfather was now. He was still within the tolerance range of some people, thinking that there was still a possibility that he could be used. If he continued to be unyielding, then no one would tolerate him to continue sitting in his current position. The position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was really too important. No one could tolerate him alone. Moreover, at the beginning of his tenure, the current situation was very unusual. This position itself was unstable. If other people wanted to pull him down, Third Uncle Luo Rongping himself would not be content. Therefore, they could always find some reason to attack Luo Peishan, and then create some out of nothing. Luo Peishan's final outcome could be imagined. Therefore, it was not only Jingwan who was in danger, but also Luo Peishan and the entire Luo family.
Jin Qinwang had no power or influence, but he was someone that no one could provoke. He seemed to be Noble Consort Su's adopted son, but everyone knew that he did not touch any side.
"Indeed, the current situation has been broken. Then, girl, have you thought about the future? Moreover, Jin Qinwang himself is not someone that is easy to provoke. Using him to break the situation may bring more trouble to the Luo family. After all, if it were other people, they could still be somewhat apprehensive, but Jin Qinwang does not have any misgivings. Even if he brazenly makes a move, you can't do anything to him. "
"Therefore, I'm only asking for a status, that's all." Ruan Fangfei was a pervert, she did not want to compete with her. Besides, Jin Qinwang's heart probably still had his true love, Bai Yue Guang. She had no interest in getting involved. If she had to move her position at that time, as long as the Luo family was stabilized, she could leave. Even if it was a special way to let her live with another person's identity, it was not impossible. It was just that, the "wife of the first wife" was the bottom line, she could not even give up this persistence.
When Jingwan slightly lowered her eyes, Luo Peishan looked at her with a strange expression. Only in name? Good grandson, you also have to see if Jin Qinwang agrees or not. He has calculated so much, for so long, now you take the initiative to send yourself to his mouth, wouldn't he swallow you whole in one bite? However, she could not let that living King of Hell off so easily. She was angered to the point of falling ill, she had to give him something in return. "Girl, you should know that the most important thing is the future."
"In the future, does Grandfather also think that when any other prince ascends the throne, Jin Qinwang will definitely die?"
"Could it be that this girl has other views?"
"Although there are only a few times that I have come into contact with Jin Qinwang, and the time is short, but one thing is certain, he is not a stupid person. How could he not know his current situation? But looking at him, he still goes his own way and does not know how to restrain himself, could it be that he does not care about his own life at all? There is no reason for him to have the will to die. So, he must have means to protect himself. I never thought that when the other princes ascended the throne, it would be the day of his death. "
Luo Peishan's eyes flashed. This granddaughter of his, although she did not know the truth, but her judgment was very accurate. "Even so, Jin Qinwang is someone who does not act according to common sense."
"These two things are only used for His Majesty. After all, my status is not enough to be a Qinwang Fei. Only with His Majesty's permission, can we talk about other things. If Jin Qinwang does not agree, I will not force it."
This status was indeed the biggest obstacle, otherwise Jin Qinwang would have already directly asked for marriage. However, for the Emperor, this was not a matter at all. As long as he nodded, if he wanted to promote a person's status, it would be a matter of a sentence. Good grandson, if this matter was successful, it would solve Jin Qinwang's biggest problem.
Luo Peishan could not help but think that the living King of Hell was so insolent. The biggest problem did not require him to use the most extreme method to solve it, but it was solved by his future wife. He did not know what kind of expression he would have.
"Girl, you have to think clearly, Jin Qinwang's reputation …"
"Rumors are often exaggerated. How much of it is true is still unknown. Moreover, I do not ask for anything practical. Whether he is a playboy or not, it has nothing to do with me. As for his malicious and ruthless temperament, no matter what, he would not go so far as to do anything to his wife. Nowadays, people say that I am a jinx to my husband. With our jinx, who knows, when we meet each other, it will become mutual. "Jingwan smiled.
Luo Peishan now knew that Jingwan did not care about marriage. This step should have been carefully considered. "Since that is the case, I will present this to His Majesty tomorrow and see what His Majesty thinks."
Jingwan nodded. She thought again, "Actually, it is not impossible as long as there is a marriage contract. In any case, Granddaughter will only be married after reaching marriageable age. There is still a long time. With the marriage contract as a buffer, Grandfather should be able to completely stand firm in the Ministry of Personnel. Some matters can also be handled well. At that time, even if other people want to pull you down, it will not be so easy. At that time, if Jin Qinwang is not happy, he can also 'jinx' me once."
Luo Peishan looked at Jingwan and did not know what to say. In the end, she did this for him, for the Luo family. However, perhaps he should tell Jin Qinwang her words to let him feel suffocated.
However, this way, Jin Qinwang would be spared from exposing himself now and doing things like forcing the abdication of the throne. It must be known that even if he wanted to seize the throne, now was indeed not a good time. This was simply an invisible solution to the Qi Yuan's disaster. The Third Girl had accumulated so much good fortune, if the Heavens did not treat her better, they would really be blind.
After that, Luo Peishan's interest was piqued. He wanted to know how Jing Wan thought of all this.
"I don't know how I thought of it. I used to make it for fun in Qi An fu, but at that time, it was not so detailed and I did not think of further uses." This lie was very familiar the first time, but the second time, when she was in Qi An fu, she did indeed tinker with a lot of things that others thought were strange, so there was nothing strange about it. Moreover, at that time, she really used the hand crossbow to hunt. It did not seem strange that she wanted to improve it.
The reason why she knew about this was because in her previous life, someone gave her father a crossbow. In a moment of curiosity, she took it and played with it for a while. She also specially looked up the manufacturing method. However, too much time had passed and she only vaguely remembered some of it. Thus, she spent these few days to study it properly before she could basically restore the blueprint. However, she estimated that there were still some areas that needed to be improved. She believed that those people in the Bureau of Military Weapons would succeed in the end.
As Jingwan sent Granny Gong to the Rouge Pavilion, she naturally did not follow her to the front study. As Jingwan did not tell her about what she did before, she did not know her intentions. Thus, the important conversation between the grandmother and granddaughter in the study was not immediately heard by Li Hongyuan.
The next day, there was no morning court session. Luo Peishan went directly to the Imperial Study to meet Le Chengdi.
Naturally, there were several other ministers in the Imperial Study at this time. After dealing with the political affairs, Luo Peishan stayed until the end and presented the item. Because he had written a separate report, there was no need to explain much.
Le Chengdi was the Emperor, so he still had foresight. When he saw the item presented by Luo Peishan, he could not help but feel moved. This was indeed a good item. "Come, summon the Minister of Works and the Commander of the Left." Taking advantage of this moment, he asked, "This item is very good. Who made it? Who is so clever?"
"Your Majesty, it is my third granddaughter."
Le Chengdi's eyes moved. Jingwan had left a deep impression on him. "Very good. Last time, that girl helped me find a great talent for Qi Yuan. I have not rewarded her yet. This time, I will reward her as well. What do you want? Tell me. "
"Can my granddaughter be Your Majesty's daughter-in-law?" Luo Peishan did not hesitate and said bluntly.
Le Chengdi's eyebrows moved. "Oh, my dear minister, are you interested in my Eleventh Prince?"
Luo Peishan was also helpless. He was so sincere. Why couldn't he speak properly? Why did he have to pretend not to understand? What was the point? "The Eleventh Prince is still young." He was not even fourteen yet. He was a real child. Even if his granddaughter married him in two years, she would still be the one to raise the child. Damn it, he wanted to find a son-in-law who could love, care for, and protect his granddaughter. He did not want his granddaughter to be married off to be an old mother. "Your Majesty, this official does not ask for that girl to live a life of luxury. I only wish for her to live a peaceful and happy life. But now, she is a fish on the chopping block. This official feels distressed. Needless to say, this official's wife is even more so. If it was not because I have no other choice, this official would not dare to think about the position of a Qinwang Fei."
Le Chengdi understood that Luo Peishan was serious. "Lao Liu's temper, and his reputation …" Although Le Chengdi did not necessarily know everything that happened in the capital, he was still aware of the Luo family's current situation. In fact, he was also very satisfied with Luo Peishan.
Luo Peishan laughed in spite of himself, "This official's family's girl is rumored to be a jinx to her husband. As for the rest, if Jin Qinwang is not willing, this official will not force it. "Not willing? Was he mad with joy?
"Let Zhen think about it."
The Minister of Works and the Governor of the Left quickly arrived at the Imperial Study.
The finished product of the Clairvoyance was directly given to Qin Tianming. Among the current generals, he had the most experience in leading troops into battle. He could be considered an ever-victorious general. He had the most say in military matters.
After learning how to use it, he tested it a little. Immediately, his eyes shone with golden light. Needless to say, just by looking at his expression, the Clairvoyance's effect was not small.
The Minister of Works, who received the blueprint, was also indescribably excited.
"Official Zhong, what do you think of this blueprint?"
"Your Majesty, this is great. Previously, the Bureau of Military Weapons had always wanted to modify the crossbow, but there was not much progress. Looking at this blueprint, there is at least an eighty percent chance of success. More importantly, it can shoot five times in a row. This greatly increases the speed. Perhaps it can completely replace the use of the bow in cavalry. The cavalry's lethality will at least double. "
"Good." Le Chengdi could not help but slap the table. He was not an Emperor who had the ambition to expand his territory, but as an Emperor, he naturally wanted his country to have a strong army.
When the Left Governor heard this, he could not help but walk up to the Minister of Works. His heartbeat quickened. "This is good stuff."
Everyone knew that a crossbow was much more powerful than a bow. It also had a longer range. However, it took longer to load and did not have an advantage on the battlefield. However, if it could shoot continuously, it would make up for this shortcoming …
Le Chengdi became even more excited because of their reactions. It took him a long time to calm down.
The Minister of Works couldn't wait to go back and study the blueprint with the people of the Bureau of Military Weapons. The Left Commander-In-Chief also wanted to experience the function of the Clairvoyance more directly, so they all asked to leave. Le Chengdi naturally agreed, but these two things were of great importance and couldn't be leaked. However, the Left Governor's plan did not work. The Clairvoyance was confiscated by Le Chengdi. The Left Governor was depressed. Thus, he shamelessly followed the Minister of Works to the Bureau of Military Weapons.
Then, other than Le Chengdi's personal servant, only the two of them were in the Imperial Study.
"Official Luo, you may leave first."
"This official will retire."
Le Chengdi temporarily fell into silence. The marriage of his evil spawn son was really a headache. Originally, he had already planned to smash the broken jar and see if there was fate in the future. It was really unexpected that Luo Peishan wanted that evil spawn to be his grandson-in-law. However, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be reasonable. The Luo family's Third Miss was indeed a good person. Whether it was character or bearing, it was enough to support the status of a qinwang fei.
"Summon Jin Qinwang to the palace for an audience."
When Li Hongyuan heard Le Chengdi summon him, he was puzzled. He did not seem to have done anything in the past two days. There was an imperial court every three days. It would be good if he could go once in ten times. He did not have any errands at hand. Thus, he would occasionally enter the palace to pay his respects to Guifei Su and make friends with Le Chengdi. They just met the day before yesterday, so his old man definitely did not suddenly "miss" his son.
No matter how much he thought about it, he would know when he saw Le Chengdi.
Le Chengdi did not beat around the bush. "Official Luo wants you to be his grandson-in-law. What do you think?"
Li Hongyuan's heart beat wildly, but his expression did not change at all. "What's the reason?"
"The Luo family is now besieged on all sides. You are the best person to help them stabilize the situation." With the engagement between the Luo family's Third Miss and this evil spawn, he did not need to do anything else. How simple it was.
Half of the reason why the Luo family was in this situation was because of Le Chengdi.
"I'm asking for the reason why Father agreed."
"Luo Aiqing presented two things to me." Thus, I sold you out.
"Since Father has agreed, why do you still ask me?"
I'm afraid that you will make trouble! "In that case, it's settled. Get out."
Li Hongyuan got out without hesitation. However, no one knew how excited he was now. However, he had worked so hard for so long, but his wife easily solved it. He really felt a little frustrated. However, his wife was so powerful that he had to solve Ruan Fangfei as soon as possible. Should he kill her directly? Or cripple her? Or destroy her?
The next day, Great Elder Princess's Mansion sent someone to say that there seemed to be a little problem with the Eighteen Scholar and asked Jingwan to have a look.
Jingwan stayed in Great Elder Princess's Mansion for more than half a day. Then, there was a rumor that Great Elder Princess liked Jingwan very much and wanted to adopt her as her daughter.
