The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

The emperor raised his eyebrows calmly, a stream of light flashed across his eyes, and then looked at Qin Jiao.

Qin Jiu had lived in the palace for a few days, and the emperor had seen this girl a few times.

In his opinion, Qin Jiu has a calm temperament and a well-behaved and open-minded. He has suffered so much in the folks over the past ten years, and has finally returned to his position. He has not complained about others because of the difficulties of the past fourteen years, and he has not made a fortune. , I must be able to adapt to such a complicated family as Duanwangfu, and would not have trouble with the concubine.

The most important thing is that Gu Zezhi seemed to care about this little girl.

There is a play!

The emperor secretly said: If this marriage can really happen, he can also have an explanation with Uncle Duan.

Wait... not right!

The emperor's fingers on the jade pan suddenly stopped.

King Duan is the first brother of the first emperor, and Gu Zezhi is his cousin, but that girl Qin Jiu must be called his uncle!

The emperor pursed his thin lips in embarrassment, and turned his head to face Gu Zezhi: "Xiao Jiu, this girl, I should call you uncle in the future."

Gu Zezhi: "..."

Qin Jiao: "..."

Qin Jiu sorted out her relatives with the emperor and Gu Zezhi in his mind, and felt that the emperor was right.

She was about to nod her head when she saw Gu Zezhi smiled and said, "It's better to call him Big Brother."

Qin Jiu: Just be happy with the golden thighs!

The emperor was silent, staring at Gu Zezhi for a while, but he couldn't see what he meant.

I always feel that it seems a bit uncomfortable. In the future, will Gu Zezhi call Xiao Jiu his uncle, or will Xiao Jiu call him the emperor brother after Gu Zezhi?

"Ze Zhi..." The emperor was worried and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a scorching heat in his chest and coughed out uncontrollably.

"Cough cough cough..."

This cough was somewhat unstoppable, and he coughed four or five times, each louder than the other.

The Beiyan prince Yeluluan looked at the emperor calmly, and looked at the emperor's face. The blue eyes were slightly narrowed, with a little look, a little thought, and a little exploration.

Gu Ze put away the folding fan with one hand, and quickly pressed twice with the other hand on an acupuncture point on the emperor's back.

The emperor's cough stopped immediately.

He took the veil handed by the great **** Zhou Xin, pressed the corner of his lips, and said to Yeluluan nonchalantly: "This change in the sky makes my throat unbearable."

The emperor didn't have a slight color on his face, it seemed that he had just coughed twice because of his itchy throat.

Only Gu Zezhi noticed the emperor's left hand trembling violently on his side.

"Father." At this time, the second prince Gu Jing said worriedly, looking at the emperor with concern, "You are not in the dragon body, and the wind is in the body?"

Yeluluan raised her brows and looked at the emperor, showing thoughts.

The emperor was almost **** off by this stupid son, so he could only calmly say, "It's just choked by the cold wind, no problem."

"You can't say that." Gu Jing said hurriedly, her eyebrows furrowed, "Father, your dragon body is related to us. Over the years, your dragon body has been deteriorating, and the children are also worried."

"These imperial doctors are too conservative. According to your son, why don't you go to Jiangnan to find another famous doctor for your father?"

emperor:"……"

"Father..."

Yeluluan's eyes were more subtle, and he thought: Emperor Mo Daqi is already dying?

"Sister." Gu Zezhi's voice interrupted Yeluluan's thoughts. He urged Qin Jiu with a smile, "Have you not brought it yet?"

Do you want it now? Qin Zhuo was startled, but a Rubik's Cube, is there any urgency?

Tucao replied, she still replied: "I'll let someone get it."

Gu Zezhi was noncommittal, turning to the emperor and said: "The emperor, my father always said that when you were young, you were a master of riding and shooting, and you can wear Yang Zhineng with a hundred steps. It happened that this little girl tossed out an interesting gadget. It's better to let the minister know See your skill."

Qin Jiu blinked his black and white apricot eyes.

She suddenly understood that what Gu Zezhi was talking about was not the Rubik's Cube, but the bow that she had tossed out recently!

Gu Ju was only four years old, and he had already started riding and shooting lessons. He was frail since he was a child. The last time Qin Jiu saw him holding a small bow, he couldn't pull it for a long time. He looked depressed and pitiful.

Qin Jiao wondered if he could improve the bow a little bit, trying to make his little cousin happy.

She once saw a compound bow. Although she had forgotten the specific structure, she vaguely remembered that the compound bow uses pulleys to save effort, making it easier to draw the bow and increasing the range of the bow and arrow.

So, she asked the queen to ask the Ministry of Engineering to find two craftsmen, and she dictated and sketched them. After several days of trial and error with the craftsmen, she managed to figure out a prototype of a compound bow.

Qin Jiu glanced at Gu Ze silently, and ordered the maid to go to Fengluan Palace to get it.

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "What kind of gadget?"

Gu Zezhi smiled slightly and sold it off: "When you look at it, you'll know."

So, the emperor and his party went into the water pavilion and sat down.

The ladies evaded one after another, and instead went to a flower gallery not far away to play, and the second princess Xin'an and Qin Jiu were left by the emperor.

Not long after, a black bow was retrieved.

This bow used an ordinary bow that the craftsman found casually. It was about a crossbow. It looked unremarkable, except for the two pulleys on the bow that made people look fresh.

"This is..." The emperor took the black bow and looked at it interestingly.

"This is called a compound bow." Qin Jiu introduced, "The courtier Qiuyu's cousin can't draw a bow at a young age, so I want to improve him."

Gu Zezhi smiled and suggested: "The emperor, why not try the bow first."

The emperor had already understood Gu Zezhi's intentions. He raised his hand and easily pulled the bow away. A surprised strange light flashed across his eyes, but he was calm.

The emperor drew his bows and arrows skillfully, like a full moon.

"Wow!"

A long arrow came out of the string, like a shooting star, and it shot into the trunk three hundred steps away with full of vigor. The thick trunk shook uncontrollably, and countless fallen leaves fell from the canopy like rain.

"Rainy..."

Yeluluan's eyes widened suddenly, with indescribable consternation on his face.

Even if it is a three-stone bow, the range is only two hundred steps away. This seemingly ordinary bow has a range of three hundred steps. No, Emperor Daqi just shot it at will, maybe its range is even longer. , Three hundred and fifty steps, or four hundred steps? !

"The emperor, this bow..." Yeluluan said hard.

"This bow is done well." Emperor Longyan Dayue praised, "If it can be deployed in large quantities, it will definitely make my Daqi soldiers even more powerful!"

Qin Jiao smiled and said openly: "This bow is still very rough."

It's really rough!

Qin Jiu only knows the general principle of the compound bow, that is, relying on her blind gestures, coupled with the amazing understanding of the craftsmen, came out such a version of 1.0, which is far behind the compound bow of later generations, but simple A pulley is added to the ground to save effort.

However, Qin Jiu understood Gu Zezhi's intentions.

Qin Jiu remembered it was said in the novel that Beiyan and Daqi had feuds for generations. Although they had set an armistice covenant, they were on guard against each other. If the prince Beiyan finds that the emperor's health is getting worse in recent years, it will inevitably make Beiyan covet Daqi.

Originally, the emperor had passed by vaguely, but...

Qin Jiao glanced at the second prince. In the novel, he didn't appear to be so stupid. Is it because he is still young now, or is it because the novel is too smooth and the male protagonist's halo is enveloped, so he can't see it?

Qin Jiu's gaze shifted silently to the left, and Gu Zezhi stood with his hands under the backlight, with a slight smile on his lips.

So, since the emperor's physical condition couldn't be kept secret, Gu Zezhi wanted Yeluluan to see Daqi's military strength? To shock Bei Yan's ambition.

However, this bow is not even a semi-finished product, it is just used to make the little cousin happy. The durability of this gear has not been tested, and it is not without energy production. It is far from being promoted in the military.

Obviously, it is not suitable to say this now, Qin Jiao just stood there smiling, cute and cute.

Then he watched the emperor take her bow down.

Qin Jiao: "..."

The emperor left in a good mood, thinking about turning around and telling the queen to give Qin Jiao a good reward.

Everyone hurriedly sent off to the emperor.

When the emperor could not be seen, the ladies relaxed and continued to play around.

Until halfway through the hour, a court lady called them: "Your Majesty the second princess, it's time."

Xin'an hurriedly responded, and everyone followed the court lady towards Ci Ning Palace.

When they arrived at Ci Ning Palace, the time was just right.

Empress Wei is leading a group of concubines including Liu Guifei to congratulate the Queen Mother Liu and present their birthday gifts, followed by several elder princesses with the emperor’s princesses, and then those concubines and Girls from various provinces.

The atmosphere of Cining Palace is both solemn and lively.

By the end of the birthday, it was already an hour and a half.

Everyone was relieved and retired from Ci Ning Palace and went to the banquet first.

As for Qin Jiu, he was stopped by Mother Xu and went to the side hall of Cining Palace.

In the side hall, there was a lot of hustle and bustle, and Empress Wei, Concubine Liu Guifei, and several eldest princesses accompany Empress Liu to speak.

The Queen Mother Liu sitting on the kang is about 50 years old, with a lot of silver threads in her hair, and her fair and dignified face is properly maintained, she looks a few years younger than her actual age.

Daoist Yunguang, who is holding a whisk in her hand, is standing on the right side of Empress Dowager Liu. She still looks like an immortal spirit, but standing there still, there is a feeling that she will drift away at any time.

Daoist Yunguang also saw Qin Jiu, and the moment the two looked at each other, the whisk in his hand shook slightly.
