ell me," he growled, "how did you piece together the blueprints for a連擊弩! This king doesn't believe in coincidence, nor miracles, so you have only one chance!"Qin Luoyan stared wide-eyed at Fu Zimo, w...Especially General Li, he is also a general who came up through the ranks on the battlefield. He's not the kind of general who rose to power by flattering superiors. For soldiers, he cares more about winning and losing!
So when the sword in his hand was chopped off, his face turned ashen with rage. He gasped, his chest heaving violently, before hurling the broken blade to the ground!
"Master Fang! Is this all the weapons workshop of the Ministry of War has to offer These are wastes! Not even a decent sword can be found You're trying to fool me with this inferior junk" General Li was furious, his beard practically bristling.
"No, Master, please calm down. Our armory still has many swords. Don't worry, I'll have someone bring one over right now..."
The head monk was drenched in cold sweat. He knew General Li had a bad temper, but seeing him so furious now still made his heart pound. It was almost the New Year, and they needed to go to the Ministry of War for military pay soon. If he offended General Li at this time, everyone would be eating thin rice soup next year.
“Get going!” General Li was furious, striding toward the pavilion. He unsealed the wine jug and, without a bowl, drank straight from it.
This drink left the innkeeper in a state of agony. Heaven knows that jar of wine had been sealed for ten years; he’d craved it for so long but was too reluctant to even touch it. He never imagined General Li would treat his precious aged chrysanthemum wine as firewater! This way of drinking couldn't possibly reveal the true taste of the fine liquor.
"Yes, yes, I'll go right now." The abbot shook his head helplessly and quickly instructed the manager to look for good swords in the weapon forge.
Li Yue, holding his own sword, laughed and followed into the pavilion. He didn't forget to reprimand his old father a few times, "Father, are you convinced now I told you this sword was powerful, but you didn't believe me..."
"Don't get cocky, there will be a sword soon enough to deal with your trash!" General Li retorted immediately, refusing to back down.
Li Yue, however, smiled playfully and served dishes to General Li, saying, "Come on, Father, I'll just wait. I will definitely make you admit defeat willingly."
While the two were talking, Fangzhu paced anxiously back and forth, occasionally glaring angrily in Lao Liu's direction. It seemed like he was venting all his anger in those glares. In his eyes, it was Lao Liu and Qin Luoyan, these useless wastes who couldn't even make a sword, that had caused him to lose face.
"I heard that General Li and the young master have arrived, bringing fine swords with them" A low voice suddenly rang out at the entrance of the courtyard. As soon as the words were spoken, a figure appeared at the entrance of the courtyard.
The head monk turned back and saw that it was Li Yunfan. He immediately beamed and greeted him, "You're here! Please save me..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Yunfan raised his hand to interrupt him. Li Yunfan had seen Qin Luoyan in the corner at a glance, his eyes lit up, and a delight that he hadn't even noticed himself immediately appeared on his face.
The head monk followed his gaze and saw Qin Luoyan, who looked speechless. "How so Do you know him"
“Uh…” Li Yunfan was startled, and shook his head after coming back to his senses.
The head monk let out a breath of relief, "You don't know him He's the very same blacksmith you praised a few days ago for his fine work on spears. Sadly, his sword isn't up to par. When I realize I can't satisfy General Li in a little while, I'll push him out to take the blame!"
"Who knew Li Yun, upon hearing this, immediately darkened his face and said with displeasure: 'She’s only been in charge for a few days, it's understandable if she hasn't done well yet'"
"What" The head monk was taken aback, his expression becoming quite comical. "You weren't saying this a few days ago, weren't you You said that even if these new craftsmen were made to take the blame, it wouldn't be a shame. That's why you chose him to take over Xiao Da's work! How come you've changed your mind in just a few days"
Li Yunfan rolled her eyes at him dismissively and walked straight into the gazebo.
Inside the pavilion, General Li and his son saw Li Yunfan. General Li immediately stood up and greeted him, walking in front of Li Yunfan and pushing his shoulder with a palm. "Cousin, why are you so late Oh... right, I heard that you've been looking for people at the workshop these days. Luckily this is a weapons workshop, full of men, otherwise I would have thought you had your eye on some girl."
Uncle
The abbot was stunned, his eyes wide open. He had never heard Li Yunfan mention this connection he had with General Li before. He couldn't help but wonder, no wonder Li Yunfan had such a bad temper and was so arrogant, it turned out he had General Li backing him up.
The old monk originally thought that this shock was the limit, who knew there was another even more shocking scene waiting. Li General also stood up and walked to Li Yunfan's face, taking his hand respectfully and giving his own seat to Li Yunfan, "Nephew, please sit down, don't stand and talk, the weather is too cold, standing for a long time in the wind will catch a cold."
Li Yunfan sat down in front of General Li without any awareness of the disparity in their ranks. He seemed to think that General Li's respectful attitude was only natural, behaving with such casual unconcern.
General Li turned around and slapped Li Yue on the head, "You little brat, I've told you many times, when talking to your cousin, pay attention! Don't be so disrespectful!"
Li Yue touched his head sheepishly and smiled, "Father, Cousin isn't a petty person."
That statement, "He's not someone who holds grudges..." made everyone in the room except Li Yue want to laugh. With Li Fan's personality, he didn't hold grudges; if anyone on earth wouldn't, it would be him.
"Shut up! If you dare disrespect your cousin again, when you go back I'll make sure you can't leave the General's Mansion for a month!"
After a moment of low growls, General Li finally silenced Li Yue, who dared not utter another word.
It was only then that Li Yun calmly spoke up, "Uncle, why don't you and Li Yue sit down for a meal"
When General Li heard this, he was overjoyed as if he had received a great gift. He then pulled Li Yue respectfully to sit down.
General Li's strange attitude left everyone puzzled. Who exactly was this Li Yunfan Not only was he General Li's relative, but he also seemed to be someone of considerable influence.
When several people were having a meal, Li Yue recounted the bet he had made with General Li. He particularly emphasized his victory and the smug look on his face when he won, which enraged General Li to the point of wanting to spit blood.
“It’s all the fault of these useless blacksmiths in the armory! They can’t even forge a decent sword! It infuriates me to no end! If it weren't for this treasure sword that could help me win this bet, I would never give up!” General Li was so angry he couldn’t even stomach his meal.
Li Yunfan also frowned slightly, raising his eyes to look in Qin Luoyan's direction, "Their made swords, aren't they good enough"
