The Unstoppable Sixth Prince

Chapter 80: Protecting One's Own Husband

When Yun Zheng arrived at the blacksmith's shop, it was bustling with activity.

After bowing to Yun Zheng, several blacksmiths immediately presented the forged long spears as if offering treasures.

The long spear is divided into two sections.

The middle part has a screw thread.

When not in use, the long spear can be split in two and stored in a leather backpack for easy carrying.

Just take it out and twist it together to complete the assembly.

Looking at the long spear in front of him, Yun Zheng felt very happy.

"Reward! Twenty taels of silver for each person!"

In a great mood, Yun Zheng was particularly generous.

He still thought these blacksmiths couldn't make screw threads!

To their surprise, they actually managed to extract the screw hole using only human strength.

He realized that he had still underestimated the wisdom of these craftsmen.

"Thank you, His Highness Sixth Prince!"

A few people were filled with excited gratitude.

"This is what you deserve!"

Yun Zheng looked at the few people with satisfaction.

He knew clearly in his heart how difficult it was to forge this gun in just a few days.

It is estimated that these few have hardly slept in the past few days.

After chatting with a few people, Yun Zheng instructed, "Later, I will draw another type of knife for you. Once you forge the knives for Gao He and Zhou Mi, focus on forging this type of knife!"

Improved Tang Sword!

On the basis of the Tang broadsword, slightly increase the width, making it more suitable for cavalry use.

Light and sharp!

Chopping and thrusting are both very suitable.

Thinking of the Tang knife, Yun Zheng also thought of the Zhuge crossbow.

He knew about this thing, but he didn't know how to handle it.

I can only go back and find Zhang Xu to see if he can figure this thing out.

After working in the blacksmith shop until dusk, Yun Zheng finally left.

However, Yun Zheng did not return to his own residence, but headed straight for the Shen mansion.

Upon arriving at the Shen residence, the Shen family was having dinner.

The wedding day of Li Yunzhen and Shen Luoyan is less than ten days away, and the Shen family has made many arrangements, already feeling a hint of festive atmosphere.

Madam Shen invited Yun Zheng to dine together, and Yun Zheng did not refuse.

"What are you here for?"

As Yun Zheng just sat down, Shen Luoyan coldly began to inquire.

Yun Zheng replied, "Father Emperor has already granted me permission to go to the North, so I came to inform you all."

"Do you even need to say that?" Shen Luoyan scoffed.

They had long anticipated this outcome.

Yun Zheng had pushed himself and Emperor Wen to the forefront of the storm.

The Emperor Wen realized he couldn't stop him from going to the northern capital!

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Shen Luoyan became somewhat angry, her expression darkening considerably.

"Alright, you don't need me to say it, do you?"

Yun Zheng looked at her with a smile and said, "So, do you want the gift I prepared for you?"

Gift?

"Is it that one?"

Shen Luoyan looked at the leather bag made of cowhide that Yun Zheng had set aside.

"Mm."

Yun Zheng nodded gently.

"I don't care at all!"

Shen Luoyan said irritably, "You might as well save some silver for yourself to buy a coffin!"

"Cough cough..."

As soon as Shen Luoyan's words fell, Wei Shuang gently coughed, reminding Shen Luoyan not to speak carelessly.

Although she is the sixth prince's consort, there are still things that must be attended to.

Madam Shen didn't say anything, merely eating her meal as if she hadn't heard anything, but the corner of her eye was secretly observing Yun Zheng.

"This is something you didn't want yourself, you know."

Yun Zheng shrugged, "Just don't say I didn't fulfill my promise to you later."

"Did you promise me something?"

Shen Luoyan frowned slightly.

She couldn't remember what Yun Zheng had promised her.

After thinking for a long time, Shen Luoyan finally remembered.

"Is what's inside the gun you had someone make?"

Shen Luoyan furrowed her brows and asked.

"Mm."

Upon receiving Yun Zheng's affirmative response, Shen Luoyan immediately felt disdain.

"Such a short gun?"

Shen Luoyan pouted, "This must be a toy you prepared for Nian Ci, right!"

Yun Zheng glanced at her, took the leather bag from Gao He's hands, opened it, and first pulled out a half gun.

"Is this a gun?"

Shen Luoyan was even more disdainful, "You can't even tell a gun from an iron rod?"

Yun Zheng was too lazy to answer her and took out the other half again.

In the puzzled gazes of Shen Luoyan and the others, Yun Zheng quickly assembled the two pieces of the gun.

In an instant, a ten-foot-long steel spear appeared before them.

The entire gun is made of patterned steel, not only gleaming coldly but also covered in exquisite patterns.

Shen Luoyan's eyes instantly lit up, and she snatched the long spear, pulling at it with all her might, but the connection wouldn't budge.

"How did you do it?"

Shen Luoyan looked at Yun Zheng with surprise and asked curiously, "How do you take this apart?"

Yun Zheng glanced at her, took the gun again, twisted it left and right, and the long gun split into two sections once more.

Shen Luoyan was just about to try it herself when Yun Zheng handed the two halves of the spear to Gao He, saying, "Since Luoyan doesn't want it, I'll give it to you!"

Shen Luoyan's eyes widened in alarm as soon as she heard this.

"I want! I want!"

Shen Luoyan snatched the two halves of the gun, cradling them in her arms like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and glared fiercely at Gao He, "If you dare to snatch from me, you're dead for sure!"

Gao He suppressed his laughter and shook his head repeatedly, "I dare not."

"This is more like it!"

Shen Luoyan nodded in satisfaction.

Shen Luoyan is a person of quick temper.

After getting the long gun, he couldn't wait to run to the backyard to try it out.

This long spear, forged from pure patterned steel, weighs at least thirty pounds, but Shen Luoyan dances with it, creating a fierce wind.

Watching Shen Luoyan dance with her spear, Yun Zheng couldn't help but smile wryly to himself.

Damn it!

I can't beat them!

There is a sixth prince's consort who won't allow anyone to force their way in.

Shen Luoyan's dance lasted the time of a single incense stick.

At the moment of putting away the gun, Shen Luoyan didn't even take a breath.

It is clear that she can completely handle this gun.

"From today on, this gun will be called the Cloud Pattern Gun!"

Shen Luoyan lovingly caressed the gun, proudly announcing.

"Alright."

Madam Shen shot her daughter a glare and said, "Girls shouldn't be playing with swords and guns all day! Hurry up and eat, the food is getting cold!"

"Mm-hmm."

Shen Luoyan nodded slightly and then looked up at Yun Zheng, "Don't think that giving me a gun will let the matter of Qunfang Garden just pass!"

Yun Zheng shook his head with a bitter smile, "Whether it happens or not, isn't the outcome already determined?"

Shen Luoyan paused slightly, suddenly at a loss for words.

Watching Yun Zheng walk towards the courtyard, Shen Luoyan couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed.

This bastard is also in debt!

Isn't it good for him to engage in these strange and clever tricks?

You really want to court disaster!

Did he feel happy about going to the north by himself?

Now that his trip to the north has been decided, it's too late for him to regret it!

After the meal, Yun Zheng stood up to take his leave.

Seeing that Yun Zheng had sent a gun, Shen Luoyan rarely went out to see him off.

After sending Yun Zheng off, the family returned to the house and sat down.

Madam Shen pondered for a moment and instructed Shen Luoyan, "Select about ten skilled fighters from the manor. Starting tomorrow, they won't have to do the chores of the servants anymore; they can focus solely on their martial training!"

"Why pick them out?"

Shen Luoyan asked, confused.

"What else can I do?"

Madam Shen glared at her daughter, "Go with you to the North!"

Shen Luoyan was slightly taken aback, "I want to go to Shuo Bei too?"

"Your own husband, if you don't protect him, who will?"

Madam Shen said irritably, "Do you really want to be a widow like your mother and your two sisters-in-law?"

Just as Ye Zi said, the Shen family had no choice!

In that case, I can only do my best to help Yun Zheng!

Perhaps, Yun Zheng really can achieve something..
