Everything in this world is really unpredictably changed, the situation has automatically changed for the better before much work has been done. Qiu Yue obtained Fu Qi Men’s ancient book, and Luo Yun this cold-faced handsome guy, who wordless and uncommunicative, has opened his heart to love, even more frightening, the cotton armor which will definitely become the greatest inventions in the world, was born. Before the shock was over, another happy cannonball flew over. Boom! There was an extremely amazing weapon maker expert hiding in their own Xiao family!

With so much good news, don’t know how happy Rong Tian will be when he comes back.

But wait a minute … Feng Ming frowns.

After that genius was invited by Luo Deng, what kind of first impression should he give to the other party?

It seems that talents are needed to win over people. When watching ‘The Romance of the Three Kingdoms’, Liu Bei was specialized to this matter. These generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Zi Long, were deceived by him to be loyal and devoted, and even Zhu Ge Liang sold his life for him all his life.

(t/n: ‘The Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ is a 14th-century historical novel attributed to Luo Guan Zhong. It is set in the turbulent years towards the end of the Han dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese history, starting in 169 AD and ending with the reunification of the land in 280)

Of course, if this kind of thing happen on Rong Tian, it will be as simple as eating lettuce. In those days, Rong Tian could make Lie Er asking Yong Yi for a strategy to not to be a crown prince only in two or three seconds, which was extremely impressive.

With Rong Tian’s ability, such things as human heart is estimated half a dozen of them can be solved easily.

Feng Ming struggling to recall how the scenes of ‘Corporal Li Xian’ were played in the TV series. When he was enthralled, he was suddenly interrupted halfway.

Ran Qing came to report that someone asked to see him.

It was Wu Qian and Hong Yu that came together.

Feng Ming and their temperament are similar, they have been familiar gradually, when he heard that they were here, he went directly to the hall and said with a smile at the entrance, “I didn’t think you guys would come to see me today, has the foundry been done and I will have a victory banquet next month?”

Hong Yu is always open-minded, when he saw Feng Ming he pointed to Wu Qian and said, “What kind of victory banquet? It’s all because of him. Feng Ming, you come to judge, the foundry is just at a critical moment, there are a lot of chaos up and down, how is it he insisted on pulling me out to meet you? If the foundry can’t open the kiln on time, you can get even with him.”

Feng Ming snorts and looks at Wu Qian inquiringly.Wu Qian and Hong Yu have a very close relationship. Being pointed by Hong Yu like this, he is not angry at all, but just said to Feng Ming, “I can’t help but bringing him to disturb you.”

Feng Ming murmured, “What’s it all about?”

Hong Yu seems to have known what Wu Qian would say, and he’s about to speak but Wu Qian speaks first, “This man doesn’t know how to take care of himself and works regardless of his body. Although the foundry is important, he is not in a hurry at this moment, as if he had to get sick on his own. The same case was happened when he made armor for me last time, as soon as the adrenaline rushed up, he worked hard and ended up suffering by himself, he was seriously ill after finishing the work and almost lost his life. I couldn’t bear to see him, so I forced him to come and see you.”

Hong Yu shouts, “There you go again. How many times do you have to mention such a minor illness? I’m not delicate ladies. Okay, now that I’ve seen Feng Ming, can I go back to my work?” He’s preoccupied with his precious foundry, as soon as he finished, he stands up and wants to say goodbye to Feng Ming.

Feng Ming heard this and he understands it.

When he looked carefully, he found that Hong Yu was paler than usual. Hong Yu’s skin is pale(fair), so this kind of pale can’t be seen without careful look.

It’s hard to be this attentive as Wu Qian.

Feng Ming’s is warm-hearted and regards Hong Yu as a friend, he naturally helps Wu Qian and stops Hong Yu. “You’re already here anyway, why the rush? Wu Qian also means good.”

Hong Yu hurriedly says, “Don’t listen to him. When I studied machine with my master, it was much harder than this. People who forge weapons can bear hardships, how can i be as delicate as he says? I can even kill two tigers now, how could i get sick?”

Although this remark is arrogant and dry, with Hong Yu’s white clean and slender hands and feet, its offensive has been greatly reduced.

Wu Qian seems to have spoken enough to Hong Yu and failed to get any result, now he only has Feng Ming to help him and says to Feng Ming, “This man’s temper is more stubborn than a donkey, I can’t persuade him, I can only count on you.”

Feng Ming curiously said, “You’ve said everything to him, would he listen to me?”

“Can he not listen to you?” Wu Qian laughs. “Don’t forget who funded the foundry. If Hong Yu doesn’t put you in his eyes, you might as well stop his foundry.”

This is really put Hong Yu’s life at stake.

Hong Yu immediately becomes nervous and says to Feng Ming, “Feng Ming, you must not listen to slanderers.”

Feng Ming suddenly realized that he finally understood why Wu Qian brought Hong Yu here, gave a long ‘Oh’ tone and couldn’t help but laughing, “It turned out that i am the boss behind the scenes still has such usefulness.”

Laughing for a while, he pats Hong Yu’s shoulder, asks him to sit down, and says, “Hong Yu, it’s not that i biased Wu Qian, you should really take a rest, body is the asset of the revolution. How about this, just take a break for two days, and then you can continue after two days, okay? If you can’t even take care of your own body, how can i believe that you can take care of such a big foundry?”

Hong Yu certainly understood what he meant.

Advice at best and threat at worst.

What hateful thing is that this threat can really be achieved only by Feng Ming calling him out, can Hong Yu not to listen to him?

Seeing that he was silent, Feng Ming asks with a smile, “What’s going on?”

Hong Yu is desperately forced to defeat, with full of depression he had to say, “You paid for the foundry, it’s all you can only decide.”

He doesn’t feel annoy at Feng Ming, instead he scowl at Wu Qian who had make things like this, he’s frowning indignantly. This is not a good-looking expression, but him making this kind of face, no matter how fierce it is, it’s only showing a little beast-like stubbornness.

When Wu Qian achieved his goal, he calmed down his mind, afraid of Hong Yu’s stare, he coughs and put on a look ‘it has nothing to do with himself’, casually picks a topic to asks Feng Ming, “Just now you said that the body is the asset of the revolution, I know both body and asset, but what is revolution?”

Feng Ming has made numerous mistakes in revealing his words for a long time, now that he has a lot of experience in processing this kind of situation of being questioned, after listening to Wu Qian’s question, he immediately pretends to be serious, “Oh, this is a local saying I heard, but I don’t quite understand it myself. I guess revolution means work, right?”

After a random prevarication, he quickly changes the subject and asks with concern, “Why haven’t i seen General Zhuang recently? Is he still so busy?”

Wu Qian came to see Feng Ming for the first time when general Zhuang introduced him, it was clear that the two had a close relationship.

For some reason, Wu Qian who hear Feng Ming asking general Zhuang is silent for a moment then he says, “He’s been really busy recently. I went to General’s Mansion personally yesterday and rarely met him, we both finally talked for a while.”

After a brief sentence, he’s silent and looks at Feng Ming with a very complicated eye.

Wu Qian doesn’t hide his manner, of course Feng Ming saw at first glance that something is wrong, scratching his head he says “Why do you look at me like that? General Zhuang said something bad about me when he talked to you, did he?”

Wu Qian shakes his head and says, “Where does that thought come from? Zhuang Pu is by no means a person who speaks ill of people behind his back, it’s just because he has a heavy army in his hand and so he’s more cautious than others.” This sentence is too vague, with Feng Ming’s straightforward thinking mode, although he catches some meanings, but most of them are still confusing. In front of the two friends Wu Qian and Hong Yu, there’s no need to pretend to understand, Feng Ming simply showed an expression of ignorance, waiting for Wu Qian to explain.

This modest expression of asking for advice is one of the most lethal expressions of Feng Ming.

Wu Qian originally wanted to stop at one point, but when he saw Feng Ming, who was wholeheartedly trying to figure it out, he was really helpless, after thinking about it, he reminded him in a low voice, “The great king’s birthday is coming soon, the heart of the Tong Kingdom’s people is unstable and there are rumors everywhere. You have offended a lot of people because of The Grace Of Order, so you’d better be careful.”

Feng Ming scratches his head and says, “It’s a rumor again? What does The Grace Of Order have to do with the rumor again? Who did I offend again?” He spreads his hand innocently.

Forced by helplessness, Hong Yu sits there gloomily and bored, so he had to listen to the two of them talk about serious things.

Of course, Hong Yu is much clearer than Feng Ming for the things around Wu Qian, Wu Qian says vaguely and Feng Ming doesn’t understand, this kind of stickiness is exactly what Hong Yu is most impatient with.

He has regarded Feng Ming as a friend and he’s not a royal nobleman, he doesn’t have such scruples as Wu Qian, so he can’t help but interjecting, “Aren’t you troubled playing dumb riddles like this?” He simply speaking the truth to Feng Ming, “Feng Ming, i don’t know who you offended or who spread the rumor. Anyway, a lot of news has been against you recently, mostly because you had something to do with the death of the great king. Moreover, you come to Tong Ze with such a great fanfare and stay in the He Qing Prince Palace, many people are guessing your purpose. Aih, anyway, it’s annoys me when I hear this kind of official business, only thinking about it I’ve had a headache. Just to remind you, be careful not to be hurted.”

“It turned out to be this.” Feng Ming understands Hong Yu’s words but he relaxes instead, he says with laughing, “I’ve heard such rumors long ago. Fortunately, both Imperial Uncle Qing Zhang and General Zhuang are credulous people who believe rumors, otherwise I would not be able to stay here today. Don’t worry about me.”

Hong Yu doesn’t understand politics, so he says with ease, “So you already knew about it, just beware. In fact, I don’t believe those rumors at all. I see many swords and I like to use swords to classify people. You’re like a Long Straight Sword.”

Feng Ming blankly says, “Long Straight Sword?”

“Long Straight Sword is long and straight, but the texture is extremely brittle. Because of its lack of toughness, it can’t stand the twist and break as soon as it bends. It’s a kind of old-fashioned sword that is not very durable.”

“Ah?” Feng Ming smiled bitterly. “What is easy to break? It seems that I’m not a good sword!”

Hong Yu also laughs, showing his white teeth. “I mean you’re straight enough, unlike those royals and nobles who play tricks behind their backs. So I don’t believe that you secretly murdered the great king and then come to Tong Ze to wreck it? I don’t believe a word. You’re not that kind of person.”

Feng Ming then figured out what Hong Yu wanted to express, he couldn’t laugh or cry.

Wu Qian shakes his head helplessly at the side and asks Hong Yu, “Unlike those royals and nobles? I just let you rest for two days, and you scold me like this?”

Hong Yu naturally doesn’t like to hold a grudge, after saying a few words the dissatisfaction in his heart had long disappeared and smiles at Wu Qian. “I said the wrong thing at the moment, I didn’t mean to scold you.”

With such a few words, the atmosphere become harmonious again.

Wu Qian has achieved his goal, hoping to grab Hong Yu to rest asap, after chatting for a while, he bid farewell to Feng Ming.

Before leaving, Wu Qian reminds Feng Ming, “Although I don’t care about the royal family, I was born in the royal palace after all, I have seen a lot of bloody things. Rumors are the scariest. Besides, the mouth to mouth rumors of the common people different with the news coming to Zhuang Pu’s ears. Of course, Zhuang Pu will not be easily deceived, but I guess there’re people in the Tong Kingdom who want to deal with you.”

Feng Ming nods in agreement with what he says.

The nobles of the Tong Kingdom who wants have to deal with him is not new news anymore.

Qing Li the Crown Prince is the first one.

Feng Ming thinks for a moment and says, “I know that I myself not hostile toward the Tong Kingdom, it can be testified by heaven and earth. No matter what General Zhuang hears, if he wants to deal with me, he must give evidence that I have done wrong to the Tong Kingdom, right? Besides, here in the Tong Kingdom, Qing Zhang imperial uncle is in charge after all.”

“This is also true.” Wu Qian relieves, “I know who Zhuang Pu is, he is quite stubborn because he only believes in solid evidence and what he has seen with his own eyes.”

With that, he left with Hong Yu.
