"Exactly." The official chuckled, "Of the six countries in the world, the only ones who are famous for their weapon making are the Gongshu family of Xu State and the Mohist family of Qi State. Most of the new weapons used by the Ministry of War today are from the Mohist family."
"I see, but why doesn't she just call him Mr. Mo?"
"Because the Mohist family's stunts are passed on to men but not to women." The other party lowered his voice, "This is not a secret. After all, women have to get married. Once the stunts are taught, they are likely to be leaked by the husband's family. And these stunts are maintained by the Mohist family. How can you be willing to spread the word about the key to your status? Not to mention the Mohist family, most people with unique skills will follow this practice."
"really."
"However, our lady is not an ordinary woman. Not only has she been interested in making weapons since she was a child, she has also awakened the ability to sense energy. Her skills are much better than many men in the family. I learned that my family's unique skills will not be passed down from male to male. After passing on the daughter, the master left the family directly and made his own way by relying on his own talents. Therefore, as long as she is not in formal occasions, she will not mention her surname, which is why the title of Mr. Yun comes from. "
"Such an encounter has happened." The guard sighed inwardly. It seems that the other party did not climb to where he is today smoothly.
"Yes, officials from the Ministry of Industry - at least colleagues from the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau all admire her. It's just a pity..."
"What's a pity?"
She was disgusted by the stereotype that men should not wear women's clothes, and decided not to marry in her life. "The official sighed, his tone full of regret.
After the two chatted for about a quarter of an hour, Mr. Yun reappeared in front of them.
So fast!
Is this the formal style of the Ministry of Industry
"Let's go." Mo Yun said.
"Uh... You don't have to send it off, sir." Seeing her being so courteous to the corporal, the guards felt a little embarrassed, "Just give the letter to the officer, and I will deliver it to the princess."
"I just believe it, so hurry up and get on your way."
"Okay... ah?" The guard was stunned, "You want to go to Jinxia?"
The official surnamed Xiao was also stunned, "Sir, what is going on?"
"Of course it's something that can't be explained clearly with pen and paper." She frowned, "What's so strange about this? Isn't it normal for officials from the Ministry of Works to visit other places? It's not your first day here at the Ministry of Works."
"But I heard... the new weapon you are leading is at a critical stage. If you leave now, wouldn't it be possible that you won't be able to catch up with the rare objects appreciation meeting in late autumn? This time, the public loser has promised to completely defeat you."
"So what, Mr. Xiao, do you think I can't tell which one is more important? One side is just an appreciation party, but the other side is related to the fate of Her Royal Highness. How do you think I should choose?"
The fate of the third princess
When these words came out, not only the other party, but also the guards were shocked.
He quickly recalled the situation in Jinxia City, but couldn't think of any serious problems at the moment.
"Anyway, I have to go to Jinxia City. There are still a few months until the end of autumn. It will not be a problem to work hard to catch up later, but if I have distracting thoughts, no matter how much time I give, it will be in vain. Mr. Xiao, I have made it so clear, do you understand?"
"Okay..." the other party had no choice but to say, "Then you must come back early."
"This is natural." After saying that, Mo Yun looked at the guard, "Then can we set off now?"
…
At the same time, Luo Qingqing also received two letters from Luo Tang.
"I guess you won't know who sent the other letter." Luo Tang's mysterious appearance was still in front of her eyes, and when she opened the cover, she was really surprised. She didn't expect that the letter was from Xia Fan. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to contact him alone. Being able to send a letter with Luo Youer meant that he and his junior sister were assigned to the same city.
She originally planned to wait until she returned to her residence in the evening to read it carefully, but in the end curiosity got the best of her. She found a rare opportunity and opened the letter while the fourth prince was taking a nap.
"Senior sister, please see the letter."
"I originally planned to write you a letter as soon as I arrived at the assigned place, but I didn't expect that I encountered many things as soon as I arrived."
"First, evil spirits appeared in the surrounding counties, and then -" This part was crossed out in ink, "I can't go into too much detail in the letter, but it is a big deal. It turns out that the responsibilities of the Privy Council Warlocks are so important and dangerous. , those trainings in Youzhou Mansion were simply too easy compared to it. The first time I dealt with evil spirits, I was almost killed. To be honest, I was thinking about the world after death."
Bah, bah, bah, you can't just write this in a letter. Luo Qingqing planned to burn the letter later to avoid a prophecy. At the same time, she was also a little angry with Xia Fan. He should have been there at the time. Why did he let his junior sister fall into such a dangerous situation
"But don't blame the thieves," Luo Youer said next. "In the end, thanks to him and Sister Li, we were able to successfully kill the evil spirits and live up to the expectations of the county people."
Wait, who is Sister Li? Also a contemporaneous alchemist
Luo Qingqing stayed on these words for a few more breaths.
And why do you call each other sister so quickly
She suddenly felt that her position as senior sister was shaky.
"What I didn't expect was that later even Princess Guangping became a member of the alchemists and fought alongside us! Is there really such a princess in Qi State? It feels just like what is written in the book. It's incredible. .”
"Because of this incident, everyone has been promoted. Xia Fan is already the fifth-level trial leader of the Privy Council. I have to say that this guy's luck is really good. I am a little envious of him. But I have also been promoted to a level. Now He is a seventh-level Shou Xin, so he shouldn’t be too far behind you, right?”
"Of course I can't compare to senior sister. According to the rules, seventh-grade can already serve as a subordinate judge and carry out some less important evil missions alone. But I don't even dare to go out of Jinxia's city gate by myself. If you can do it, Just be with me."
"In addition, although the incident in the county has been resolved, the local situation has not improved at all. I am afraid there will be a lot of trouble waiting for us. But don't worry, senior sister, I will work harder. When the matter here is over, I will take the time to go to Gyeonggi to see You, you have to treat me to all the delicious food in the city."
"Looking forward to your reply, Luo You'er."
A seventh-grade alchemist... The little girl who always seemed to have a weak point is now gradually becoming a person who can stand on her own. Luo Qingqing suddenly felt a surge of emotion in her heart.
She shook her head, suppressed the distracting thoughts in her heart, and then took out the second letter.
The content of what Xia Fan wrote was very simple, and even the written language was no different from speaking in daily life, so that when she read the letter, the other party seemed to be nagging in her ear. The main content, apart from introducing oneself as a member of the order, the second half is basically complaining and asking for help.
Why is there no one in the Privy Council Mansion? He was originally on the run. It seems that the Jinxia City Privy Council Mansion will be closed down soon. Although he didn't know exactly what happened there, his need for help was clearly revealed.
To be honest, Luo Qingqing was a little happy at the moment, but full of regrets.
Fortunately, the other party's talents have never been buried, and he was promoted to the headquarters in a short time. Jinxia City should be quite peaceful in the future.
Unfortunately, she was unable to respond to the other party's request.
At least not until he steps down from his position as the Imperial Magic Guard.
Empress Luo Fei didn't just talk nonsense. This position was indeed rare, and she would get the envy and admiration of others if she told it, but... it was very different from the path she had expected.
What she wants is not to be relaxed and comfortable, but to use her knowledge and abilities to make the order of the world better.
If Xia Fan had spoken earlier, would she have agreed
Luo gently put the letter into his belt, raised his head, and looked into the distance—
But no matter where she looked, her vision was blocked by the high white wall used to defend the inner courtyard of the palace.
