Besides, as soon as Xiao Ruo Ao got on the carriage, Tu Zhan couldn't wait to ask, "Your Majesty, has emperor Qi agreed?"

Xiao Ruo Ao raised his hand to show him to be calm. After the carriage left the palace gate, he said, "I didn't agree immediately. I just wanted to see the water boat."

Tu Zhan's eyes brightened, "then can we do it?"

Xiao Ruo Ao did not answer him, but turned to Chang Ping, "what do you say?"

After asking a few questions about their conversation, Chang Ping frowned and said, "I think it's not a good time for the Qi emperor to take precautions tomorrow."

Before Xiao ruo'ao spoke, Tu Zhan said in a stuffy voice: "you are not happy. You are afraid of the wolf before and the tiger after. As you are, you can't do anything."

Chang Ping gave him a white look. "I call it caution. I don't want to do anything like you. I just bow my head and rush up. I don't know how to die in the end."

Xiao Ruo Ao stopped the unconvinced Tu Zhan, "tell me."

"I think that from the attitude of emperor Qi to his majesty, he is very defensive. He will take a heavy army tomorrow. Even if he doesn't have it on the surface, he will set up his defense in secret. If he does it rashly, it will only be a bad thing."

Tu Zhan said unhappily, "as you say, we don't do anything. We just hand over the gun and water boat to Emperor Qi?"

"It's just an expedient measure. After gaining the trust of the Qi emperor, we can turn against the Hakkas and win the great power."

In the face of Chang Ping's explanation, Tu Zhan shook his head. "Firearms and water boats are the biggest capital in our hands. Once they are sent out, we will have nothing left. It's not proper for emperor Wanyi to demolish the bridge across the river."

"There may be something wrong, but it's better than tomorrow."

"But..." Before Tu Zhan had time to object, he heard Xiao Ruo Ao say, "I agree with Chang Ping that we should do nothing tomorrow."

Tu Zhan said eagerly, "if you miss tomorrow, I don't know when there will be a good opportunity. Your majesty, think twice."

Xiao Ruo Ao patted him on the shoulder and said, "be patient. If you take a wrong step, you will lose everything. Let's I can't afford to lose. "

Tu Zhan didn't agree, but Xiao Ruo Ao just nodded his head. Soon after returning to the post station, they received a letter from Ying Tian.

After reading the contents of the biography, Chang Ping said nervously, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Northern Zhou Dynasty has discovered the secret of the watercraft."

Xiao Ruo Ao sipped his tea and said, "so what?"

Chang Ping was surprised by his attitude and said tentatively, "isn't your majesty worried?"

"Do you think this secret can be kept secret all the time?" Xiao Ruo Ao shakes the tea cup in his hand. The tea leaves are floating in the yellow green tea soup. "Zhang Qiling is a smart man. Sooner or later, she will find out. To say the least, even if he doesn't find out, she will be able to guess it when she goes back to talk with mu Qianxue." Speaking of this, he looked a little dazed and murmured: "Xuanji There's nothing she can't guess... "

"Now that they know the secret, they will not give up. Maybe they have guessed that we have come to the state of Qi. What can they do?" Chang Ping asked nervously.

Xiao Ruo Ao is still in a state of no urgency and no slowness. "There will always be a way for the soldiers to block and the water to cover the land." After a pause, he said: "remember, no matter how emperor Qi asked, he would bite us to death, saying that we are just such a water boat. We should hide our cards well and use them when the key time comes."

"I understand." They agreed in unison.

In the early morning of the next day, the Qi emperor came to Linzi city with a few cronies in Weifu. Of course, Xiao Ruo AO and others accompanied him. There was a very wide river outside Linzi City, which led directly to Nanzhao, and then to the sea.

Emperor Qi looked around. The river was calm and there was no wave. There was a boat passing by occasionally in the distance. It seemed that everything was as usual. There was a same question in everyone's heart: was there a boat hidden under such a calm river?

Emperor Qi took back his eyes and said with a smile, "brother Xiao, let's go."

Xiao Ruo Ao nodded and took out a whistling with a strange shape from his arms. The whistling sound was a little harsh, which made people have the impulse to cover their ears. But soon they could not care about their ears and stared at the river.

In the absence of wind, the calm river rippled and expanded, as if something huge was about to come out of the water.

The mast, the cabin and the side of the boat emerge one by one. Countless currents slip from the boat and return to the river. This is a strange shaped boat. Rather than a boat, it is more like a long tube. The whole hull is nailed with wooden boards. It seems that there is no gap. The length of the boat is about 10 Zhang, and the width is about 3 Zhang, which takes up half the width of the river.

Emperor Qi watched the floating boat with a short breath. It was true that there was a boat that could hide in the water and control the sinking and floating freely. If With enough water boats, he could transport the soldiers to the outside of Jinling City through the Weihe River.

"Bang!" After completely floating on the water, the top cover of the water boat was pushed away. Several soldiers came out and saluted Xiao Ruo Ao.

Xiao Ruo Ao said with a smile: "is Qi emperor satisfied?""Satisfaction, it's a magic trick." Emperor Qi praised: "I really admire brother Xiao for his talent in building such an incredible water boat."

Xiao Ruo Ao said with a bitter smile, "if you are really talented, you won't even lose the capital." Then he looked at the water boat and sighed, "heaven doesn't help me. If we can build a water boat earlier, we can compete with the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Yingtian won't lose so miserably."

The Qi emperor frowned slightly. "Let me be frank, this ship is hidden in the water. It's really unpredictable, but it's also limited to transporting soldiers. It's very difficult to compete with the Northern Zhou Dynasty I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. "

"That's because emperor Qi hasn't really seen the power of water boats." Xiao Ruo Ao said to Tu Zhan, "show it to Emperor Qi."

"Yes." The soldiers returned to the watercraft. As the top cover was lowered, the wooden board on one side of the watercraft slowly opened, revealing two dark holes. With the contents exposed, everyone was shocked. No one thought that the water vessel had hidden two guns, which also meant that the burning ship had become a mobile artillery platform. No wonder Xiao Ruo Ao said that he could compete with the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which was true.

The place where the two guns were aimed at was the emperor of Qi. The blood shadow was so surprised that he quickly stood in front of the emperor of Qi and said, "protect your majesty."

With his words, the sound of the two sides of the grass came. It was the blood knight. There were at least hundreds of people, and there were faint people in the distance.

As Chang Ping expected, the emperor of Qi assigned many people here.

See the blood shadow nervous appearance, Xiao Ruo Ao smile, "lineage lead don't have to worry."
