Chapter 49 Not only is it beautiful, it’s also very hard!
The Beihuan delegation has left, and Yunzheng's wedding day is not far away.
That afternoon, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to help Yunzheng decorate his residence.
As for how to arrange it, Yunzheng didn't know and didn't worry about it.
Taking advantage of the fact that the original housekeeper was dealt with by Emperor Wen, Yun Zheng also took advantage of the situation and asked Ye Zi to be the housekeeper temporarily for a period of time so that he could continue to investigate the people in the house.
Yun Zheng felt relieved when he left the matter of recruiting soldiers to Du Guiyuan and the others.
Moreover, he can't take this matter too seriously.
The less interested he was, the more assured Emperor Wen was of him.
In the next two days, Yunzheng went out early and came back late.
Because Yu Shizhong and Zuo Ren wanted to recruit troops with Du Guiyuan, the people who protected Yun Zheng once again became Gao He and Zhou Mi.
Now that Gao He has returned home and Zhou Mi's suspicion has been eliminated, he finally doesn't have to be wary of the two of them all the time.
"Clang clang clang..."
In the blacksmith shop, several blacksmiths were beating with sledgehammers.
Yun Zheng secretly prayed in his heart that it would not crack again this time.
They had been working on forging just a bit of Damascus steel for the spearhead for several days, and they had forgotten how many times they had failed.
This time is the most promising one for success.
The tip of the gun has been beaten almost completely, but it has not cracked yet.
Under Yun Zheng's nervous gaze, the spear tip was finally forged and came to the most important quenching stage.
In order to quench, Yunzheng even went extravagant and bought rapeseed oil.
Although it is not as good as professional quenching oil, it is still less risky than water quenching.
When the quenching was completed, Yun Zheng immediately ran up and inspected the tip of the gun with several sweating blacksmiths.
"Your Highness, it's done!"
"It's done, it's finally done!"
After confirming that there were no cracks, several people shouted happily.
"Very good! Your Highness will be rewarded heavily if you come back!"
Yun Zheng was also very happy and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and sharpen the blade!"
The blacksmiths did not dare to neglect, and after the tip of the spear cooled down, they immediately began the work of polishing and sharpening it.
Several blacksmiths worked together to polish it, and it took half an hour to finally complete it.
Looking at the sharply polished tip of the spear, Yun Zheng felt proud.
The process problem is solved!
As long as it can be mass-produced, wouldn't it be cut into two pieces in a matter of minutes if it encounters Beihuan's broken weapons?
In addition to excitement, Yunzheng was ready to carry out the final step of work.
Acid dip!
If there is no special acid solution, use white vinegar instead.
As the acid dipping progresses, the pattern on the gun tip gradually appears.
"What a beautiful pattern!"
"Is this the patterned steel that His Highness is talking about?"
"This name is really appropriate!"
"beautiful……"
A group of people gathered around the blacksmith shop in amazement, and Gao He and Zhou Mi's eyes shone.
A knife made from this steel would certainly be extremely beautiful.
I'm afraid they won't be willing to use it to kill people!
Listening to everyone's exclamations, Yun Zheng couldn't help but curl his lips secretly.
A bunch of ignorant guys!
What is this!
There is also no modern equipment.
Otherwise, I would tattoo the whole feather for you, and that would be beautiful.
Once we are out of Emperor Wen's control, we must get a feather-patterned Tang Dao!
Yun Zheng secretly made up his mind.
"Dengdeng..."
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded outside.
Yun Zheng raised his eyes and saw Shen Luoyan galloping over on horseback.
Although Shen Luoyan is not wearing a military uniform, he has a heroic spirit when riding on a horse.
This woman!
It still looks better when riding on a horse and galloping!
Arriving at the door of the blacksmith shop, Shen Luoyan turned over and dismounted beautifully, which made Yunzheng feel very unhappy.
Show off your eggs!
I don’t have time to practice riding skills, otherwise you will be completely conspicuous!
"You are really here!"
Shen Luoyan stood at the door of the blacksmith shop, looking at the disgraced Yun Zheng speechlessly.
To be honest, Yun Zheng's current appearance is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Although he didn't do it himself, the blacksmith shop was very dusty and extremely hot. The sweat mixed with the dust stuck to his face, making him look dirty.
"How did you come?"
Yun Zheng wiped the dust off his face carelessly and asked with a smile.
Shen Luoyan hummed softly: "I just went to your house and heard people say that our Sixth Highness is working on blacksmithing all day long. I still don't believe it! So I came here to have a look."
strike iron?
I am opening the technology tree!
You know a ball!
Yun Zheng complained in his mind and asked lightly: "How are your family preparations going? Is there anyone who needs my help?"
"Oh, you still know how to ask!"
Shen Luoyan looked at Yunzheng angrily, "I thought His Highness the Sixth Prince had forgotten about our wedding!"
I have never seen such a person!
Emperor Wen specifically gave him permission to recruit five hundred soldiers privately, but as a result, he didn't worry about recruiting soldiers at all.
Their wedding was less than half a month away, and he was equally indifferent to the preparations on both sides.
Come here all day to strike iron?
Why, he wants to exercise by blacksmithing?
Yunzheng touched his nose and said, "I didn't forget, am I busy?"
Shen Luoyan curled her lips, "Just be busy..."
Halfway through his words, Shen Luoyan suddenly paused and his eyes fell on Gao He's hand.
"what?"
Shen Luoyan was slightly surprised, stepped forward quickly, and grabbed the tip of the spear in Gao He's hand.
"The tip of this spear is so beautiful!"
Shen Luoyan fondly stroked the tip of the gun.
It looked like he was looking at his lover.
Yun Zheng was sure that this woman liked the tip of the spear countless times more than he did.
"Sixth Princess, this is the patterned steel that His Highness taught us to exercise!"
A blacksmith said to Shen Luoyan with a smile.
"He... taught you?"
Shen Luoyan looked at the blacksmith in astonishment.
"Yes, it was His Highness the Sixth Prince who taught us how to exercise."
Another blacksmith also echoed, "His Highness Six has been with us these two days and has suffered a lot in order to get this patterned steel."
"Hey, Your Highness, Sixth Highness, you are very good at winning people's hearts!"
Shen Luoyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Yun Zheng, "Are they afraid that I might think you've gone out and fooled around in the past two days?"
"fool around?"
Yun Zheng touched his chin and thought for a while, then nodded to himself and said, "It's really time for me to go to a brothel and check out the public sentiment!"
As a modern person, when traveling to the ancient world, you must understand the sentiments of the people!
"Go quickly! Don't say I'm stopping you."
Shen Luoyan didn't take it seriously, put down the tip of the spear again, and said with a half-smile, "I'm afraid that Your Highness, Sixth Prince, is as weak as the tip of the spear. It's just an embroidered pillow."
What the hell?
Embroidered pillows?
"I'll let you see if the tip of this spear is useful or not!"
Yun Zheng became angry and asked someone to pick up the tip of the spear, and then asked Gao He to chop it with his saber.
"clang……"
Gao He slashed forward with his sword, and his saber broke into two pieces.
There was only a little scratch on the edge of the gun tip, which could be said to be almost unscathed.
Seeing this scene, not to mention Shen Luoyan, even Gao He and the others were shocked.
Is this patterned steel so hard?
"see it?"
Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Luoyan, "My gun is not only beautiful, it's also very hard!"
