Chapter 356 All interested in Thunderbolt
Wei Qingwan rested her head on Qi Zhen's chest with a happy face.
At this moment, she felt very at ease and satisfied.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Zhen asked suddenly: "By the way, is your sister working for the Seventh Prince?"
Wei Qingwan raised her head, deep down in her heart she was very unhappy about Qi Zhen mentioning Wei Qingruo.
In her eyes, Qi Zhen is her light, brings her warmth, and can save her from the abyss; while Wei Qingruo is the person she hates the most, and is the chief culprit who caused her to fall into the quagmire.
Wei Qingwan carefully asked: "Why did Mr. Qi ask about my sister?"
"I mean, if she works for the Seventh Prince, it may have some influence on our affairs. You know that I and the Sixth Prince are cousins, and the relationship between the Seventh Prince and my imperial cousin is..."
Even ordinary people who don’t understand government affairs know something about the competitive relationship between the sixth prince and the seventh prince, not to mention that Wei Qingwan is also a daughter of the Earl’s Mansion.
Wei Qingwan quickly explained: "Sister, she is not working for the Seventh Prince, she is working for Princess Jingmin. This time, all the Taizhou government participated in the land reclamation and disaster relief. The Seventh Prince is only one of them, and it cannot be counted as working for the Seventh Prince. The prince works."
"Oh? I'm relieved that way." Qi Zhen smiled softly.
"Yes." Wei Qingwan nodded, feeling a little more relaxed.
Then Qi Zhen casually said: "It would be even better if your sister could help His Highness Six."
"Why did Mr. Qi say that?" Wei Qingwan's heart tightened again.
"Now that the emperor sent the Sixth Highness to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief, when we really need manpower, if the Wei family can help His Highness the Sixth Highness perform meritorious service, it will be of great help to both the Wei family and the two of us in the future. "Qi Zhen analyzed.
Hearing this, Wei Qingwan pursed her lips, with complicated emotions in her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Zhen smiled brightly and said: "You don't have to take it to heart, I just mentioned this matter, I should work hard for you and me, and other people's things can't be extravagant. Let alone your sister, What she wants to do is her business, and it is not easy to interfere."
Wei Qingwan slightly nodded her head, countless thoughts skipping through her mind.
Qi Zhen said in relief: "Don't think too much. Although there is some bad reputation outside, my father has never been able to hold me back. As long as I insist, he will definitely agree."
"Yes." Wei Qingwan replied softly, Qi Zhen's comfort was very useful, but there was still a trace of uneasiness in her heart.
After the two chatted, Qi Zhen left.
After Qi Zhen left, Wei Qingwan sat alone in the room, her expression still solemn.
Cui He had a smile on her face: "Miss, Mr. Qi left you a lot of things, and he said he would find a way for the master to pick you up. Why are you still frowning?"
Wei Qingwan didn't answer Cui He's words, but glanced at the things Qi Zhen sent behind Cui He.
Then he said to Cui He: "Pick some valuable things that I can't use and sell them, and then find a way to help me find the medicine that can remove scars."
Cui He nodded hurriedly: "I'll do it now, servant girl."
After Cui He left, Wei Qingwan's brows still did not relax, thinking of those words of Qi Zhen just now in her mind.
Not only did Wei Qingwan not expect Wei Qingruo to be helpful to her marriage with Young Master Qi, she also didn't want Wei Qingruo to work for the Sixth Prince, and she didn't even want Wei Qingruo to have contact with the Sixth Prince, Young Master Qi and others.
So she would not say a word to Wei Qingruo about Mr. Qi's proposal just now.
For the marriage between her and Mr. Qi, she believed that Mr. Qi would be enough, and Wei Qingruo was not needed.
For some reason, she was vaguely worried that Wei Qingruo would ruin her marriage with Young Master Qi.
Chu Lan is in Yu Sheng Tea House at the moment.
He didn't really come to drink tea and relax, considering the current situation, he couldn't be relaxed.
It's just that he doesn't trust other people in Taizhou Mansion, and after the robbery of grain and grass last time, the military camp has become a place of suspicion.
So he hid in the tea room of Yu Sheng Tea House, discussing matters with Lu Yuhong and some cronies.
On the tea table by the window, Chu Lan flipped through the recent military affairs records, and Lu Yuhong, who was sitting opposite him, came over curiously.
"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this control map?" Lu Yuhong asked and looked at it carefully.
Although Lu Yuhong was not well-educated, he still inherited the fine lineage of their Lu family in terms of martial arts, and he could understand the control map and maps at a glance.
But he didn't see any problem from the control content.
"There is nothing wrong with the map itself, but this defense map is from the last time we fought Japanese pirates." Chu Lan said.
"The time in April when our army suffered heavy losses and Wei Mingting almost died?" Lu Yuhong nodded.
"Wei Mingting mentioned this matter when he discussed with me the day before yesterday. He suspected that the actions of our army at that time might have been leaked to the Japanese pirates, which led to their surprise attack."
"What do you mean? Someone in the Anti-Japanese Army is collaborating with the enemy?" Lu Yuhong's face was shocked, and then turned into anger, "They are all citizens of my Celestial Dynasty. Why do you want to collude with the enemy?"
"Because of profit, because of money." Chu Lan replied.
"are you sure?"
"Not yet." Chu Lan was looking for flaws, but so far she hasn't gotten any clear clues.
It seems that it is not easy to find this spy hiding in the barracks.
"Then don't read it yet, I think you saw it early in the morning, why not drink a cup of tea and relax yourself." Lu Yuhong suggested.
As he said that, he stretched out his hand to tear away the defense map in front of Chu Lan, and changed the subject: "Why don't you tell me about the Thunderbolt? The Thunderbolt is really so powerful that it can kill a group of well-trained soldiers all at once. Kill them all?"
Compared to studying the deployment map, Lu Yuhong was more interested in Thunderbolt bullets.
"I have never seen the scene of the thunderbolt explosion with my own eyes, only the remains of the corpses after the bombing. Like you, I also want to see the appearance of the thunderbolt when it is used." Chu Lan is also full of enthusiasm for the thunderbolt. interest and curiosity.
"Haven't you already found the ship dealer who can provide Thunderbolt?"
"I found it. I will arrive at Taizhou Prefecture on the fourth day of August. After staying in the capital city for one night, I will meet us at the barracks the next day." Chu Lan replied.
"Can you let me see it then?" Lu Yuhong was full of curiosity.
"It's okay."
"Then it's settled, I'll go there with you on the fifth day of August!" Lu Yuhong looked excited, already looking forward to the legendary powerful new weapon.

Early the next morning, Wei Jin also came to Songyuan to find Wei Ruo.
Seeing Wei Jinyi standing at the door, a smile appeared on Wei Ruo's face.
"Good morning, second brother."
"Well, it's early." Wei Jin responded, and then told Wei Ruo the good news, "The fish is hooked."
