As expected, when he returned to the residence and entered the independent small courtyard where he temporarily stayed, Rong Tian had been waiting in the inner room.

He seems to have just bathed, wearing a simple robe and also expose a little chest muscles of his neckline, showing his strong body, sexy and charming.

Feng Ming enters the door and enjoy what he sees, he happily run over. “Guess what we did today?”

Rong Tian laughs. “What else can you do other than playing?”

He holds Feng Ming on his lap and helps him slowly massage his tired calves.

Feng Ming comfortably ‘hummed’ twice and whisperly praise. “Rong Tian, if you’re not suitable to be a king, you can at least open a massage parlor to be a boss or something.” Turning around, he holds Rong Tian’s neck, and says “We don’t just go out to play today, we do a lot of things, firstly…”

“I first went to the Foundry to meet Hong Yu and then went to the fleet, Lie Zhong Shi and friends also brought the wooden box back.” Rong Tian interfaced, “I know it all, and you don’t want to think about who brought it back.”

Feng Ming also think about it, Rong Hu returned earlier than they did, of course when they met he will report their every move to Rong Tian.

“What is a trebuchet?”

“Uh?”

Rong tian can’t help but knock on his head. “The trebuchet, the one you almost said to Hong Yu today.”

“Oh! That?”

Feng Ming grimaces. “Rong Hu's sense of smell is really sensitive, he actually came back to tell you about the trebuchet ah? Hehe, How could I have never thought that maybe this thing would help you a lot? The trebuchet is a weapon that is launched using the principle of leverage, you can throw a heavy boulders or shells into the enemy arrays.”

He finds a pen and paper and draw a few times.

His knowledge of the trebuchet was limited to watching ancient war films on television, especially when the ancient Romans fought, they used it when they attacked the city. Hundreds of trebuchets were launched together, and the wall suddenly collapsed. It was a wonderful and impressive scene.

But exactly how it was made, Feng Ming is not clear.

Fortunately this thing should be very simple, to put it bluntly it’s a large seesaw.

Feng Ming has one of the most advantages over the ancient people, that is the basic education of various subjects in the modern system, especially physical chemistry, when he first studied, he didn’t expected that those scientific principles that seemed to be so boring were so valuable.

He imagines the shape of the trebuchet in his brain, he tried to rack his brains to link this thing to the practical application that the physics teacher had said.

He draws it off on the paper. After changing papers and drawing again, he scratched his head and thought hard to remember how the beloved physics teacher used the various applications of leverage to draw several pages back and forth. Finally, he pointed to a similar-looking drawing and says. “I guess, it’s probably like this.”

Rong Tian bows his head and looks at it, the drawing is really to be less than impressed and crooked from side to side.

But it can be seen faintly.

Rong Tian frowns. “With this thing, how can a boulder be thrown out?”

“Because force multiplied with length is equal to force multiplied with length, this is the principle of leverage. You don’t understand, right?” Seeing Rong Tian’s warning eyes drifted over, Feng Ming hurriedly assist him with smiling face, “hihi.. Of course you don’t understand. I don’t know how to explain it in detail to you, anyway you can say that, this thing can take advantage of the increase in distance, so that the force thrown at the opposite place will increase, ok? Do you understand? Alas, if this question had been explained to Third Princess, she would have immediately understood that, she really has a good research on physics mathematics. Regarding the leverage, when I was in Fan Jia, I still…”

Feng Ming’s voice suddenly stuck.

Rong Tian sees his face change strangely and asks, “What’s wrong?”

“Uh, if I were to tell you, I seem to have discussed this principle with Ruoyan, will you be angry with me?” Feng Ming asks with a worried look. “I didn’t know anything about it that year, i don't know if this kind of thing is a state secret, at that time, you also tricked me to go to Fan Jia…”

Rong Tian gently points a finger on his lips and smiles lightly. “Why am I angry? You are so smart, that you can shocked Ruo Yan, I’m glad even it’s too late.”

Feng Ming is happy all of a sudden, he contently bit Rong Tian’s fingers and gently sucked it for a moment, he will make up for it, “For you, I must study the trebuchet and make you a powerful weapon to defeat Ruo Yan.”

This scrupulous oath is inconsistent with his temper. Instead, it made Rong Tian smiles. “You must study it. Maybe you can go to the war in the future.”

Feng Ming patted his chest and full of confidence. “Of course I can go to the war. From my great progress in swordsmanship and from my experience in the past to gather the best feature of history, the art of war, I am qualified enough to be a general who leaf the army.”

Rong Tian laughs pleasurely and mess his hair. “Wait until when you face the war, you speak louder, but I don’t like if you really do.”

His expression calmed down, and he sees that there’s still tiredness on Feng Ming’s face, he simply takes him to bed and sits down beside him. “Where did you go in the afternoon?”

Speaking of the afternoon, Feng Ming first reported the matter about the owner of Fu Qi Men shop accepted Qiu yue as an apprentice.

Rong Tian have also heard the name of Emperor Purple, and he’s surprised to say, “Is there such a thing?”

“Un, it’s amazing, isn’t it? I also don’t know that he can accept the apprentice like this, but it’s good too, Qiu Yue got a master and will have a special skill later. In the future we will open a big Qiu Yue clothing shop and will make money every day ah.”

However Rong Tian is solemn. “The craftsman's generation in the workshop, usually will not be drawn into the military service. Nowadays, even the King of Tong Kingdom has reduce this kind of people to guard the border. It seems to be prosperous with foreign countries, but in reality there are many hidden dangers, most of the people are uneasy inside, otherwise, why did the Fu Qi Men’s old shopkeeper choose Qiu Yue, instead of finding his apprentice in his own home town Tong Kingdom?”

Feng Ming cutely leaned his head. “Isn’t this because I, the Xiao family Young Master, am more likely to get the purple shells from the Dan Lin sea area, and Qiu Yue just guess the raw materials of his family?”

“This is just two of the reasons,” Rong Tian, contemplating and says. “The world is about to go into chaos, people are faintly panicking, it’s as if a flash flood is about to break out. Birds and animals will want to find a high enough mountain tops to avoid the water.”

Having Rong Tian as great backing-up, and also Duke Ming as the Young Master of the huge business Xiao family, of course he’s a very good mountain top.

“Fu family can both accept the apprenticeship to guarantee that the Emperor Purple technique will not be lost, but also to use this to climb the relationship with Xiao family. Killing two birds with one stone. Fu Qi Men’s shopkeeper must seize this opportunity,” Rong Tian’s analysis hit the nail on the head.

Feng Ming seems to not really understand and scratches his head. “Why so complicated ah? I think the man is very old, he speaks incorrectly and his brain turn around and around?”

Rong Tian wants to make him rest well, but as soon as he sees him scratching his head, he can’t help but reaching out to tease him, his thumb scratched his tip of the chin. “You have to be prepared, on this journey, there will be many people who use various methods to test you and deal with you.”

“Test me?”

“Because the people who think highly of you, will have plans to lean on you. Many people will want to ride your Xiao family big ship to break out of a bright world in the chaos times.” Rong Tain says, “Recruiting talent, gathering talent, isn’t this the Grace of Order? I have ordered to spread out the Grace of Order, what you’re saying in the banquet of the Tong kingdom, there must be someone who will certainly preach for you. In the future, just wait that all kinds of people will come to your door.”

Feng Ming opens his mouth.

Isn’t this glorious future exactly the same as Meng Chang Jun in history?

(t/n: Meng Chang Jun 孟嘗君, born Tian Wen, died 279 BC, one of the famed Four Lords of the Warring States Era, he advising his father to accept common people to enter their clan, welcomed everybody with no regard for age, physical appearance, background, or skill. The guests were given shelter, food and a salary. As a result, people flooded in from all over the province. Because the family treated everybody with respect and honour, the Tian family prospered and Tian Wen’s name became well known. When Tian Ying(father) died, Tian Wen became the ruler of the clan by popular demand. He then took the title of Lord Meng Chang of Xue).

Three thousand visitors in front of the door, horses like dragons.

This task can be really arduous. I heard that Meng changjun’s end was very out of luck… it won’t be exhausting, right?

He grimaces and asks Rong Tian, “Can I do it? I always feel that these people are smarter than me, you see the old man Fu today, turning my Qiu Yue into his apprentice in three or two sentences, if you don’t expose it, I still don’t know that he has unconsciously climbed the relationship with my Xiao family, and making me as his great backing-up for no reason. I’ll discuss the amount of the protection fee with him if i knew it.”

He bends his fingers like counting on something. “I have to socialize with the Tong kingdom bigwigs, I have to travel around the world, i have to open up the double luminous sand routes, i have to manage the Xiao family property, i have to help you think about the structure of the trebuchet, i have to help Wu Qian to think about armor, and there’s Qiu Yue’s clothes too…” There’s something flashes in his mind, Feng Ming suddenly lost his voice.

The light shines as quickly as the tip of the needle flicks and instantly sinks into the darkness. He seems to feel that it’s the answer that can help him solve a puzzle, but he can’t hold anything out of reach.

He can’t even lock my eyebrows together.

Rong Tian thinks what had happened to him and asks with concern, “What’s wrong?”

Feng Ming shakes his head like he wishing to pour out a little bit inspiration out of his head, and asks Rong Tian blankly, “What did I just say?”

Rong Tian has a strong memory, immediately recite word by word. “You have to to socialize with the Tong kingdom bigwigs, you have to travel around the world, you have to open up the double luminous sand routes, you have to manage the Xiao family property, you have to help me think about the structure of the trebuchet, you have to help Wu Qian think about armor and also Qiu Yue’s clothes, what’s wrong with that?”

As the words “armor” and “clothes” enter his ear, Feng Ming’s mind moves slightly, like being inspired by the light touch of electric currents. This time it’s finally caught by him.

Feng Ming suddenly jumps out of bed and looks excited. “I’ve thought of it!”

Rong Tian asks, “What did you think of?”

“Armor! Clothes!” Feng Ming hugs Rong Tian, leap and frisk about almost like a rabbit. “You still don’t know?”

Rong Tian frowns. “What to know?”

Feng Ming shouted, “Cotton armor! Cotton armor! The people of the Qing dynasty used cotton clothes for armor. It works well. It don’t have to use metal such as copper or iron. You watch TV… Oh, you haven’t seen TV. But the Qing people were wearing armor made of cotton, I’ve seen the science and technology channel before, it’s said that the cotton armor was made with the principle of modern bulletproof vests, it’s technologically advanced. Rong Tian, our army will become the first armored army in the world! Really, how can I remember it now?”

Rong Hu was outside and heard Feng Ming screaming out loudly, he opens the curtain and comes in. “Duke Ming what happen?”

Rong Tian stands beside the bed is hugged happily by Feng Ming, hearing the words he turns his head and answers with a wry smile, “He said he would use cotton to replace the armor…”

ooooo

Lie Er slowly woke up from the suffocating darkness.

Had not yet opened his eyes, his slow nerves had told him that the place where he is now is no longer the former dark cellar.

There was a slight sensation of shaking on all four limbs of his body and he could not help but guess that he’s on a secret boat.

Has Yu Lang’s secret cave moved to the Aman River again?

Mobile boats have greater flexibility and are suitable for escaping the enemy’s roundup.

At this point, has Yong Yi already grasped Yu Lang’s whereabouts and started to take action?

Lie Er tries to wake his drowsy mind so he can think about his situation, with closing his eyes he inserts the sharp needle and pierce his arm a little deeper.

He suppressing his breathing, feeling the pain of the needle tip piercing sharply in the flesh and blood, almost into the bone, to keep him awake enough to think.

Yu Lang is good at drugs.

It’s more effective to use drugs than using a chain. Because the locked man may still have a chance to break free and escape, but the drowsy people, there’s not even a chance to thougt to resist.

Ever since Lie Er was being caught, he was forced to take the drugs that Yu Lang mixed almost everyday. Although he’s no longer used aphrodisiac that burns his body, but the green drugs that has recently been poured into the throat with terrible smell makes it easier for Lie Er to fall into a state of drowsiness.

(t/n: ‘drugs’ in here means: poison/medicine, depend on the sentence)

God damn! Fu Tong is social climber and used Qiu Yue as the ladder!!!!! What will happen to Qiu Yue??
