Allure Ugly Concubine

Chapter 26
Early the next morning, Lu Ba couldn't wait to take Lin Zijiang to Chu Yue, asking to see the armory prepared for him.But Chu Yue asked them to wait in Nanlin Garden first.

But when Lu Bayi saw that the place was bare and there was only a lonely study here, he was a little puzzled. He asked Lin Zijiang, "Hey, girl, do you know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of King Yue?"

Lin Zijiang leaned his body against the crooked tree beside him and said, "I don't know. Anyway, he must have a reason for letting us come here."

Lu Ba didn't know Lin Zijiang, so he just looked anxiously at the entrance of the courtyard, hoping that Chu Yue would come soon.

After about a quarter of an hour, Chu Yue finally arrived here.

Seeing Chu Yue approaching, Lu Ba hurriedly asked: "My lord, Lu is not interested in poetry and books. I just want to start researching weapons quickly. Where is my weapon room?"

But Chu Yue said calmly: "Sir, don't worry, it's here."

"Ah? Here?" Lu Ba was a little confused.There is nothing here except Chu Yue's study. Could it be that Chu Yue wants to vacate his study for him?
Chu Yue didn't answer, but just walked towards the crooked neck tree that Lin Zijiang was leaning against just now.He stopped three meters ahead, and then used his internal strength to slap towards the tree trunk.Under the pressure of the palm wind, the crooked-neck tree began to shake violently, and the leaves fell like raindrops.Then the soil under the tree seemed to loosen, and with a sound, the tree and soil moved slowly to the right.Then a square hole appeared in the original position, and there was a staircase made of stone slabs extending downwards.

Lu Ba was a little stunned when he saw this, he didn't expect such a scene under the tree.Lin Zijiang gasped even more, no wonder Chu Yue stipulated that he could not break into this other courtyard without authorization, so it was a hidden secret.

Then Chu Yue made a gesture of invitation to Lu Ba, and went down the stairs first.Seeing this, Lu Ba and Lin Zijiang also entered the cave one after another, and then walked down the stairs.

The aisle in the cave is quite spacious, and an oil lamp is lit every ten steps, so it is convenient to move around.

There are four secret passages distributed inside, corresponding to the four stone gates.Different patterns are depicted on each stone gate, which are gold, wood, water and fire.

Chu Yue led them to the stone gate with the pattern of "fire", and lightly knocked on the stone gate four times.

Then the stone door slowly opened to the right.Then a gust of hot air came from inside.Accompanied by the sound of "ping ping pong pong".

Seeing the situation inside, Lin Zijiang and Lu Ba were surprised at the same time.I saw hundreds of workers smelting ironware inside.Even when Chu Yue and the others came in, the people inside did not stop.

Then, Chu Yue turned his head and said to Lu Ba: "There are hundreds of blacksmiths here, I hope Mr. Lu can lead them to make the best weapons."

Lu Ba said excitedly: "Hey, Lu will definitely do his best."

Immediately, his heart was already itchy, and he walked over and took a tool from a craftsman and started to move his hands.

But when Lin Zijiang saw such a scene, he felt a little deeply worried.Chu Yue has secretly arranged so many people to build weapons here, it seems that he has already been preparing for the seizure of power.But now that he let himself follow in and let himself know this secret, does it mean that he will not be able to retreat unscathed?How could it be possible for Chu Yue to let people who knew his secrets leave Yue Palace alive?

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly Chu Yue's voice came from above his head: "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Zijiang didn't realize that he had come behind her, and was so frightened by the sudden sound that she shuddered.

Seeing her reaction like this, Chu Yue asked again: "Is this king so scary?"

Lin Zijiang quickly explained: "No, I just lost my mind."

Chu Yue heard the words, but slowly moved his face closer to Lin Zijiang, and asked with a hint of threat: "You are not planning to betray this king, are you?"

"How could it be? This servant just admires the resourcefulness of the prince." Lin Zijiang quickly explained.

"Oh?" Chu Yue slightly raised his eyebrows, "How do you say it?"

"If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. The prince has a long-term vision, and the slaves can't match it." Lin Zijiang said.

"Hmph, my king has been killing enemies on the battlefield for a long time, so I know from experience that in the battle between the two armies, in addition to being familiar with the art of war, what is more important is the role of weapons. It's just that you... how do you understand these? And you also know how to make weapons. A strange weapon like the 'Broken Blade'." Chu Yue asked doubtfully.

"I just like to read some books on weapon making, so I know a little about how to make weapons." Lin Zijiang Hu made up.

"Ordinary women like to be female celebrities at home or practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but there are very few women who like to read books about weapons like you." Chu Yue said a little puzzled, then changed the subject, looked at Lin Zijiang and said: "Maybe it's because you're ugly, so your hobbies are different from those of ordinary women. After all, it's useless for you to practice like this."

"..." What Lin Zijiang originally wanted to say was choked by Chu Yue's words.But in my heart, there are thousands of grass and mud horses galloping past, what's wrong with being ugly, have you eaten your rice?Should I mention this every time...

"By the way, did the nanny tell you to go yesterday?" Chu Yue asked suddenly.

Lin Zijiang was immersed in cursing Chu Yue in his heart, when he heard him ask a question, he was taken aback for a moment before answering: "Uh... yes."

"What did she tell you?"

"She asked me to help her grow cabbage every day." Lin Zijiang said a little angrily.Thinking of that Aunt Qin, Lin Zijiang, made her even more angry. Why are Chu Yue and his family full of weirdos?

"Nurse is the housekeeper of the palace, so you'd better follow her orders. And, don't offend her." Chu Yue solemnly instructed.

But Lin Zijiang was a little puzzled, why Chu Yue's words were the same as Li Shang's words last night, they were all telling him to be careful of Aunt Qin.And she could tell that even Chu Yue was afraid of Aunt Qin, she seemed to be an extraordinary character.

Seeing that Lin Zijiang was in a daze and did not answer, Chu Yue immediately lowered his face and said in a deep voice, "Do you understand?"

"Oh... yes." Only then did Lin Zijiang come back to his senses.

Seeing Lin Zijiang's answer, Chu Yue nodded in satisfaction and continued, "I have something to deal with these few days. You just need to accompany Mr. Lu to develop the 'Broken Blade' every day."

"Yes." Lin Zijiang replied respectfully.But I was happy in my heart, it's great, I don't have to face this poisonous wooden face these days.
