I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 1227 Repeating Crossbow

no way.

What Admiral Gu did has been spread in the shortest time since it was exposed, and now the discussion in the capital has soared.

Not to mention that the emperor was furious, the whole court was equally astonished.

Therefore, the censors collectively wrote a letter, demanding that Admiral Gu be severely punished, and Liu Wenshu be chopped alive!
Even in the eyes of these men, they felt that the biggest responsibility was on Liu Wenshu!
"This woman has ulterior motives. She sneaked into the Shenji Camp a few years ago and tried her best to get to Gu Admiral's side. That's because she has a plan! Gu Admiral was bewitched by her! She ruined a strong general of my celestial dynasty! This woman Immortality is not enough for civilians to be angry!"

From this point, some people spread out in a wider direction, and some even insisted that Liu Wenshu was a spy sent by the enemy country, just to let her hide beside the ancient admiral to steal the secrets of the celestial dynasty!

With so many culpable crimes brought over head-on, one can imagine what kind of life Liu Wenshu lived in the prison.

Gu Yuanlong waited by the emperor's side, and he must have stood aside in the early court.Therefore, he knew exactly what was going on in the hall, so naturally he would talk to Xia Ying and Gu Tuo after returning home.

As for the prince, he would send Xia Ying some information about Liu Wenshu's current situation from time to time.

Anyway, from the mouths of these three parties, they all know one thing - Liu Wenshu is not doing well right now.

Gu Tuo's mood also became more and more depressed.

In a flash, the half-month closed period expired.

The day of leaving the customs coincided with the Fifteenth National Congress.

Gu Tuo brought Sister Bao into the palace, and he personally presented the Lianfa crossbow that Sister Bao was modifying to the emperor.

In fact, at the beginning the emperor gave them half a month's time, all for the purpose of fooling all the officials and delaying time.But he didn't expect that in just half a month, Sister Bao really came up with something?

Of course, the emperor didn't think it was due to Sister Bao.Even all civil and military officials believed that this must be something that Gu Tuo designed for his daughter in order to help her escape danger!

However, from the moment he took the things out, Gu Tuo insisted: "The design concept of this repeating crossbow was proposed by the little girl, and the modification of the mechanism inside was also done by the little girl herself, and I just made it for her by her side." It’s just some supervision and guidance. But the first thing to do is done by the little girl herself, and the humble minister didn’t participate at all. If the emperor wants to witness the effect of this repeating crossbow, the little girl can also show it to you in public.”

what did he say?
"Ran Aiqing, are you saying that even a six or seven-year-old girl can control this repeating crossbow?" The prince whispered in surprise.

Gu Tuo nodded. "That's natural."

There was an uproar all over the court.

But immediately someone shouted: "Impossible! How old is this child, what does she know? Moreover, a crossbow has always been controlled by a master. If this thing can be held and used by a child, then Safety is not enough to be guaranteed! Your Majesty, I think that this thing cannot be used in military camps!"

"My daughter, she is not an ordinary child." Gu Tuo said, "Besides, I didn't say that this repeating crossbow is [-]% perfect. This is only what a little girl can do at her age. most."

King Jin quickly helped Gu Tuo to speak: "No matter how much you talk, it is far less effective than seeing the real effect of this repeating crossbow. Since Ran Qiguan has been trying his best to praise this repeating crossbow, why don't we watch it first?" Let’s see how things work.”

Gu Tuo is still under his name, so he has to say something nice for him.

Moreover, the reputation of the ancient admiral is now ruined, and the new admiral has not yet been determined.Now is the golden time for King Jin to seize the time to express himself and win all the hearts of the Shenji Camp to his side!
For the sake of Miss Fu's face, the crown prince naturally offered to help.

It was rare for the two sons to stand on the same front and help Gu Tuo speak, and the emperor nodded. "Since that's the case, let's take a look before we talk!"

Therefore, all civil and military officials moved to the imperial garden.

On the imperial garden side, a court lady and eunuch quickly set up a small school yard, and there were three rows of people standing around the school yard, completely blocking the front, back, left, and right sides.

After everything was arranged, the emperor came slowly with the prince and the king of Jin.

The group of them sat down on a high platform a hundred steps away from the school grounds.

Then, the eunuch shouted: "Master Xuanxuanhuai has an audience!"

Xuanhuai County Lord is the title of Sister Bao.But because this girl entered the Shenji Camp after being canonized, almost no one called her that.Now that this title was called, Sister Bao reacted for a while, and then she strode into the school field with that simple repeating crossbow.

Although she is only seven years old this year, she has been studying with Gu Tuo for six years.

The little girl also doesn't like to dress up, and now she is still dressed in the light attire of a little boy, and her soft hair has been picked up and combed into two corners.Even though she is so small, she straightened her figure, holding the crossbow in her arms carefully with both hands.

This high-spirited little appearance has a bit of indiscriminate heroism, no wonder she has not been discovered by anyone since she entered the Shenji Camp for half a year.

Now, this heroic little guy followed the eunuch who was leading the way all the way, and felt the gazes of the surrounding eyes. She was unavoidably nervous, but her feet were still walking steadily forward.

Going all the way to the center of the school field, she listened in front of the grass target that had been set up.

Put down the crossbow, open the mechanism, and press the launch with one hand——

call out!
A sharp arrow flew out of the crossbow immediately, hitting the red heart in the center of the grass target!
The moment the sharp arrow shot out, Sister Bao's little foot stepped on the mechanism next to the crossbow machine lightly, and there was a clicking sound, indicating that an arrow had been loaded.Then she pressed the firing mechanism again, and immediately shot out another sharp arrow!
The time difference between the two arrows before and after is only one breath!

And the time interval between the next few arrows was not much longer.

But after a while, dozens of sharp arrows were already stuck on the straw target in front of him!

The sharpness of the hands and the accuracy of the archery almost made many military officers present start applauding!
Just for this performance towards Sister Bao, no matter whether she made this crossbow by herself or not, it is enough to exonerate her!

The emperor did not expect that this little girl actually brought him such a big surprise!
"it is good!"

Immediately, the emperor burst into applause.

"Ran Aiqing really taught a good daughter! Now, since she has handed in an answer sheet that satisfies me, she will be spared the death penalty!"

He was always going with the flow, but now that he was in a good mood, he even said the words of exoneration directly.

When Gu Tuo saw this, he was also overjoyed.

He immediately knelt down and shouted: "My minister, I would like to thank the emperor Long En! Then, please the emperor to take pity on the talent of the little girl and let her enter the Shenji camp to continue to display her talents!"
