The prince is very fierce

At three o'clock in the morning, Xu Buling, who had finished firing the artillery, took Xiang'er and Manzhi to relax along the streets of Suzhou.

Although the craftsmanship of the artillery was a bit crude and far from what Xu Buling imagined, he did not start slowly studying it in the Stone Age. Xiliang could cast weapons and armor by himself, and the metallurgical craftsmanship was up to standard. The front-end technology is sufficient, but in this world, the individual combat power is too strong, and the firearms are too useless in the early stage, so no one has been developing this aspect. The ancients may not have as much knowledge as modern people, but the IQ of top talents is by no means worse than modern people. As long as you know the principles, it is not difficult to follow the clues and continue research and development.

After returning from the weapons room, Xiao Xiang'er is still frowning, thinking about the scene where the target was torn apart just now. He has been interested in these strange skills since he was a child, and his focused look is quite similar to Xiao Qi's.

Zhu Manzhi rubbed his ears and kept complaining:

"Mr. Xu, this firecracker of yours is a bit scary. If you pull one out during a life-and-death fight in the arena, you can scare people half to death without even using your hands."

"That's natural. The cavalry is frightened when they encounter this thing. A cannon startles the horse, and the formation collapses without daring to move forward. In the Ningyuan victory that year, Yuan Chonghuan used twelve artillery pieces to resist the 60,000 elite cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty..."

When Xu Buling said this, he felt something was wrong. He coughed slightly and closed his mouth, holding the hands of the two beauties, one large and one small, and continued walking.

Suzhou is not as prosperous as Chang'an. There are basically no pedestrians in the alleys, and the two girls are not shy.

Xiao Xiang'er thought about it for a long time. After hearing Zhu Manzhi's words, she seemed to have some idea and turned her head:

"Xu Bu Ling, if the big firecracker just now was made a hundred times smaller and the power would be reduced a hundred times, it seems that it could kill people. If it is hidden on the body as a hidden weapon, I'm afraid even you won't be able to dodge it."

Xu Buling admired the baby's little brain for drawing inferences, but he still shook his head:

"We'll talk about this later. Reloading is too difficult, and the primer cannot be made at all. If it is small, the reloading is too slow, and it will be gone after one hit. And if you really use it to hit me, you can't hit me from ten feet away, and you can't raise your hand within ten feet. It's dead when you get up, it doesn't have much effect, and it can only deal with people like Man Zhi."

When Zhu Manzhi heard this, he immediately became unhappy:

"I'm pretty good at martial arts. I can easily deal with two or three thieves. Don't keep saying that..."

Xiao Xiang'er thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be the case, so she put the thought aside and turned to look at the alley:

"Where are you taking us?"

Xu Buling's face was calm: "Canyang Pond, Manzhi said he wanted to soak in the hot springs."

"Oh...ah?!"

Xiao Xiang'er paused, not understanding what Xu Buling meant. There was a bit of embarrassment in her apricot eyes, and she turned around and wanted to walk back.

Zhu Manzhi also just remembered this. Unexpectedly, Xu Buling came for real, and he quickly wanted to break away his hand:

"Mr. Xu, I was just kidding, why should I take a bath in broad daylight..."

Xu Buling had already walked up to him. There was no reason to go back. He held the two girls' wrists and forcibly pulled them toward the back door of Canyang Pool:

"Come on, let's go, why don't you just take a bath, Manzhi, I'll rub your back..."

"No, you rub it for Sister Xiang'er..."

Xiao Xiang'er's face turned red. It was okay to take a mandarin duck bath. It wasn't like she had never done it before, but Manzhi was still in front of her. If she and Xu Buling got into the water, they would be forced into the pool to make medicine. She said quickly:

"No, you are so presumptuous, and the child is still here..."

Zhu Manzhi was about to nod when his eyebrows suddenly wrinkled and he felt something was wrong:

"Sister Xiang'er, why am I so young?"

"Not too small, not too small."

With a slight smile, Xu Buling pulled the two of them into the private pool behind Canyang Pool.

The steward here naturally knew the young master of Suzhou. When he saw Xu Buling coming with the girl, he quickly asked everyone to go out and at the same time bowed and said:

"Young prince, some girls from the palace just came over, and they are..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Buling's expression condensed slightly, feeling that he had come at the wrong time.

Xiao Xiang'er felt as if he was being pardoned, and quickly raised his hand and said:

"I know, I know, go down."

Zhu Manzhi ran back and shouted:

"Qingye? Chuchu?"

"Hey~ Manzhi, where did you go this morning..."

Deep in Canyang Pond, Qingye's response soon came, and Chu Chu and Yu Fu were also there.

Xu Bu Ling's expression was slightly embarrassed. No matter how thick-skinned he was, there was no way he would run in and join in the fun. He could only watch Xiao Manzhi walk away.

When Xiao Xiang'er saw Xu Bu Ling fetching water from the bamboo basket, his expression was a little strange. He walked towards the back unhurriedly and sighed softly:

"Little Bu Ling, if you want to harm the girl in the future, remember to find out clearly. This baby is going to take a bath first, you can wait outside~"

Xu Buling narrowed his eyes slightly, stepped forward, hugged Xiao Xiang'er, and walked toward the back:

"There's not just one pool behind Canyang Pool. Let's just soak in ours."? !

Xiao Xiang'er's embroidered shoes were dangling in the air, her eyes showing a little shame:

"Are you out of your mind? The little girls are right here..."

Xu Buling whispered: "So the baby can't make a sound. It's not good to be heard."

"You guys..."

Xiao Xiang'er was anxious and ashamed. After struggling to no avail, she could only raise her hand and hit Xu Buling twice. She accepted her fate and was taken into a smaller natural bath...——

A little earlier.

Ning Yuhe took Cui Xiaowan away from the sea of ​​flowers, walked along the road and came to Suzhou City.

Ning Yuhe arrived in Suzhou less than half a month ago. He knew very little about the humanistic features of Suzhou. The only thing he knew about besides the Wangfu Garden was the Canyang Pond, a geomantic treasure discovered by Manzhi.

Because Zhongli Jiujiu said that soaking in hot springs has beautifying effects, the girls in the palace had nothing to do and basically came here to take a bath during the day. Ning Yuhe's palace guarding sand is waterproof, and he is not alone in staying in the back house of the palace, and he often comes here.

After arriving at Canyang Pool, Ning Yuhe had a waist card from the palace, so he took Cui Xiaowan, who was walking around, into the palace's private pool. He took a look at the large pool and saw that Qingye and the others had arrived first. Cui Xiaowan didn't like strangers, so he took her into the small pool next to her.

Both pools are private areas of the palace and are never open to the public. Exotic flowers and plants are planted within the courtyard walls, and resting facilities are available.

When Cui Xiaowan was in Chang'an, she went to the Summer Resort to soak in hot springs. She obviously liked this kind of place. After walking into the wall of the natural pool, she untied her waist belt and said crisply:

"This place is nice. It will be mine from now on."

"No problem, I'll just tell Ling'er."

Ning Yuhe smiled. They were all women, and there was nothing to be shy about. She untied her white dress and followed Cui Xiaowan into the water. She glanced secretly from the corner of her eye and noticed that Cui Xiaowan looked thin and frail, but after taking off her dress, she had a well-proportioned texture. , the skin is very delicate, the waist is as slender as a willow, and more importantly...

Cui Xiaowan stood in the misty pool, her skin like mutton-fat jade. She splashed the water for a while, then looked back at Ning Yuhe. Her eyes were attracted by the pattern of the flying phoenix spreading its wings, and then moved downwards...

"Miss Ning, why didn't you..."

"Uh... what a coincidence..."

Ning Yuhe's eyes were stunned. He took a secret look and then retreated into the warm water. His face turned red and he felt strange in his heart.

Cui Xiaowan has been different from ordinary daughters since she was a child. After a brief accident, she put this issue aside. He lay down against the edge of the pool, looked at the clouds in the sky, and continued to be in a daze.

Ning Yuhe was a little embarrassed. He didn't know Cui Xiaowan very well, so he thought of finding some random topics.

But before I could think of anything to say, a voice came from outside:

"Qingye? Chuchu?"

The sound of branches.

Ning Yuhe turned his head and looked at it, smiling and saying:

"They are some little girls from the palace."

Cui Xiaowan nodded, and was about to ask if she was also the woman Xu Buling, when suddenly she heard some conversations coming from far away:

"Are you out of your mind? The little girls are right here..."

"So the baby can't make a sound. It's not good to be heard."

…

The words were very shameless and extremely familiar.

Mother?

Cui Xiaowan blinked and looked back at the entrance.

Ning Yuhe was stunned. She didn't expect Xu Buling to run here with Xiang'er. She was afraid that Xu Buling would rush in and take a look at Cui Xiaowan, so she quickly pulled Cui Xiaowan, who was probing her head, into the edge of the pool and hid it. .

Wow

There is white mist in the hot spring, which stirs up some water splashes.

Xu Buling had just stepped into the bathing pool. Before he could see the scene in the pool clearly, he heard the sound of water splashing inside, and immediately said in a deep voice:

"who?"

It is self-evident how abrupt the man's voice is in a bath full of girls.

A group of little girls bathing in the hot spring next door screamed and fell into the water in unison, and soon Ning Qingye's scolding came:

"No, you are so presumptuous! Master is inside..."

Xu Bu Ling's expression changed, he quickly put Xiang'er down, turned around and walked out, saying:

"I haven't gone in yet..."

Ning Qingye's voice came again: "Get out quickly, who asked you to run in?"

"Xiaoning Xiaozhong, this is Mr. Xu's territory..."

"Manzhi, why are you still talking to her?...Master, are you okay?"

In the small bath, Ning Yuhe was almost frightened to death and responded quickly:

"I'm fine. Your Majesty, get out quickly."

Xu Bu Ling looked embarrassed and couldn't say much, so he turned around and walked out.

Xiao Xiang'er was originally panicked, but when she saw Xu Buling shivering, her almond-shaped eyes showed a bit of amusement. After escaping the disaster, she felt much more relaxed. She even waved her hand to Xu Buling, and then walked in calmly. Xiaochi, I want to say hello to Ning Yuhe.

But before Xiao Xiang'er walked a few steps, he saw Cui Xiaowan emerging from the shore, with a bit of curiosity on her face:

"Mother, why did you come here with him? Are you going to take a bath together?"

"..."

When Xiao Xiang'er saw her daughter-in-law, her expression suddenly froze...
