, really..." Qin Luoyan's words were cut off before she could finish them as the domineering man blocked her mouth. He actually shoved his finger, which he had used to apply medicine for her, directly..."Embroidery pattern" Fu Zi Mo's smile grew even more enigmatic. He casually flipped through the drawings with his slender fingers, "This drawing is different from your embroidery patterns, woman. Some things are better left untried."
Qin Luoyan felt a bit uneasy about his disdain, especially his contempt for women, which she strongly disagreed with. Although she didn't expect this era to grant women and men equal social status, at least she could take steps to make herself and other women different.
"How about a wager, Your Highness" Qin Luoyan withdrew her hand that was massaging his legs, poured herself a cup of tea casually, and looked extremely relaxed.
Fu Zi Mo, upon hearing this, seemed to show some interest in his eyes, "So that's how it is. Tell me, what else do you want" He thought she proposed looking at the blueprints for her own purpose, and that was good, at least it wasn't specifically about the blueprints.
Qin Luoyan didn't know the twists and turns in his heart. She smiled slightly and leaned closer to him, "Actually, it's very simple. I like silver. And Your Highness, you have the most silver. How about this, I'll try to piece together this picture. Although the blueprint is missing seven or eight parts, if I can piece together a rough outline, Your Highness will give me one thousand taels of silver, how about it"
"A thousand taels Your appetite is quite big. A maid for warming the bed, a month's pay is only one tael. A thousand taels would be enough for an ordinary family to live well for several generations." Fu Zimo did not immediately agree to her.
Qin Luo yan shrugged, as if she had expected his reaction. "Your Highness, although I don't know what this blueprint is for, it must be something extraordinary to catch the eye of the esteemed General Wu Xuan Wang. If I can lend a hand, I wouldn't think my contribution would be worth only a thousand taels in your eyes. Besides, you wouldn't miss that amount anyway, so why bother haggling with me"
Inside the carriage, silence fell once more. The two of them just stared into each other's eyes. No one spoke. After a long while, Fu Zi Mo smiled first. He reached out and lifted Qin Luo Yan's chin, leaning closer so his breath brushed against her lips. In a soft voice, he said, "Fine, this king will let you try."
"Actions speak louder than words!" Qin Luoyan slapped away his hand and picked up the drawing, flipping it over and over.
She was very serious when doing things, which probably stemmed from the habit of her past work. Don't even mention looking at blueprints; for a detail as small as a thumbprint on a blueprint, she could keep all the colleagues in her studio working late for several nights. So when her hands held the blueprint, her whole demeanor gradually changed.
Such changes, she herself was unaware of, while Fu Zimo beside her gradually became more profound in his gaze. His fingers tapped rhythmically on the carriage windowsill. The wind blew up a corner of the curtain, and through the gap, cold wind streamed in.
Although there was a stove in the carriage, this gust of cold wind still lowered the temperature considerably. Fu Zimo frowned and found that Qin Luoyan, who was immersed in her own world, didn't even react at all. She was wearing thin silk clothes, and even her nose was red from the cold. She sniffed and continued to look at the blueprints.
"Jīnmù." Fǔzǐmò frowned, suddenly raising the curtain of the carriage and calling out to the person beside it.
“Does Lord Wang have any orders” Jin Mu rode over, and the boy sitting in front of him was also wearing thin clothes. His face was flushed red from the cold. The moment the curtain lifted, the boy kept looking into the carriage. When he only saw Fu Zi Mo but not Qin Luo Yan, he showed a disappointed expression.
"In the next city, find someone to take them shopping for some clothes in town." Fu Zimo said lightly.
Jin Mu was stunned. When did King Wuxuan start caring about other people's clothes He had always only cared about his own share!
"How about I say it again" Fu Zimo said coldly with displeasure.
"Understood, subordinate. Once we reach the next city, I'll take care of it immediately!" Kimu replied quickly, barely managing to conceal the shock on his face.
Before Fu Zimo could lower the curtain and look away, Qin Luoyan's excited voice rang out, "Your Highness, do you think I did it right"
Fu Zi Mo originally didn't hold any hope for Qin Luo Yan. After all, the technology of weapon manufacturing wasn't something ordinary people understood. You could count the masters in the entire world on your fingers. The reason he agreed to Qin Luo Yan was to wait until she failed and ridicule her. He never expected Qin Luo Yan to actually dare to take action.
"This king looks at you also is haphazardly piecing together to shirk..." He mouth "this king" two words all have not spoken, suddenly eyes congealed, his gaze fell on the drawing in front of him, good a while all returns not god come.
Even Wu Xuan Wang, a seasoned warrior who remained unmoved even in the face of thousands of enemies, was surprised. Qin Luo Yan felt that this title of "International Weapons Expert" was well-deserved.
"Do you think I put it together right" Qin Luoyan asked with a smile when she saw he didn't react.
Fu Zi Mo's throat tightened, he only then remembered to pull down the curtain. He picked up the drawing and looked at it carefully again and again, his eyes suspicious, "Is this really what you drew"
Qin Luo'yan shook her head and sighed, "Lord Wang, do you think there is a third person on this carriage"
"This is impossible!" Fu Zi Mo looked at her with cold eyes, the kind that made people shiver. Perhaps Qin Luo Yan had seen his pathetic self in the forest, so even now, despite his fierce demeanor, she didn't seem intimidated at all.
"Is there anything impossible I told you, I'm good at embroidery patterns. Although this is different from embroidery, everything comes from the same source. These patterns, they all connect in a way, fundamentally aren't they all the same"
She said it lightly, but inside she was shocked. The design drawings, when pieced together, turned out to be even more ingenious than she had expected. Even with her talent, she couldn't easily manufacture this repeating crossbow without seeing all the blueprints.
However, it wasn't impossible to create. It just wasn't easy. And Qin Luoyan wouldn't tell Fu Zimu that under any circumstances.
After a while, Fu Zimo nodded. He put away the drawing and the surprise on his face. "What you said makes some sense. Your drawings are very well done. I'll have Jinmu give you one thousand taels of silver when we get back."
"When will I get the money back" Even without seeing the money, Qin Luoyan was still a little uneasy. This kind of thing, with a long night comes many dreams, besides, this King Wuxuan's temperament is unpredictable, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any changes later. If possible, she really wanted to get the silver into her hands first.
Her eager expression amused him for a moment. Fu Zi Mo suddenly had the urge to see her face fall. With elegant movements, he retrieved a jade pendant from his bosom and offered it to her, "This king doesn't have silver on hand. This jade pendant is worth ten thousand gold, I'll give it to you first, at a discount."
