Hearing Zhao Xuanji's angrily rebuked, the voice in the dark was silent for a moment, and then he said: "Because no one can get close, our people only heard a little bit of noise, but since the report below has come, it should be true."

"I think it shouldn't be too much."

Zhao Xuanji's hair and beard were all open, and he slapped heavily on the table, roaring: "This bastard dares to be rude to Qinglan. I must kill him!"

After venting, Zhao Xuanji suddenly realized that he was just incompetent and furious.

Even because all the people in the Inner Palace and Fengxi Palace were replaced, it was very troublesome to contact Zhao Qinglan.

It takes at least a certain amount of time to open the joints.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xuanji stood up and said, "Go and arrange something, I want to enter the palace."

He was eager to see if his daughter was really bullied by Li Chen.

No matter how powerful and cruel Zhao Xuanji is, as a father, he still cares about his children's instinctively.

"yes."

The voice in the darkness did not express any opinion, but just agreed and quietly retreated.

At this time, Li Chen was in the Xizheng Hall to meet Guan Zhiwei of the Ministry of Works, and also a group of skilled craftsmen from Guan Zhiwei.

"I dare to ask what Your Highness said, but a musket?"

After listening to Li Chen's narration, a craftsman brought by Guan Zhiwei lit up Li Chen's eyes.

"There are muskets now?"

After seeing that the high-end force in this world can threaten his life safety at any time, Li Chen, who is full of technology trees, now only wants to make two trolls defend himself.

If there were already muskets in this era, it would greatly save his time and energy.

The craftsman said respectfully: "This thing was invented decades ago and was also very popular at first. It uses gunpowder as a fuse to fire projectiles, which can achieve the power of bows and arrows."

As he said that, he took out a matter from the tool box he brought with him after learning that His Highness had summoned him.

Li Chen looked at it and was very surprised.

Although the thing in front of me is still very rough, the basic barrel, buttstock and trigger have the shapes that guns should have in later generations.

It’s just that the pure iron barrel and wooden gun body make it look less reliable. In addition, it has not been maintained for many years, and the barrel is already rusted at this time.

"It is only after some experiments that we found that although this object is still powerful within a short distance, its power and accuracy will drop significantly beyond twenty steps, and it is very troublesome to load ammunition every time. The cavalry charges a hundred steps away, and at most it has only one chance to launch, and if it exceeds twenty steps, it cannot guarantee its power."

The craftsman expressed a regretful expression and said, "In this way, both efficiency and practicality are not as good as a trained archer. Moreover, the gunpowder used for firing is difficult to preserve and transport, and the machine processing of the projectiles is very difficult, so it gradually no one cares about it."

"That's why you won't use it."

Li Chen walked up and did not dislike the shabby fire stick in Guan Zhiwei's eyes in front of him. He took it and played with it carefully. He looked up and asked the craftsman, "Can it fire now?"

The craftsman hesitated: "Not necessarily, the last time I used it was more than ten years ago."

“Try it.”

Li Chen waved his hand and ordered the craftsmen to start filling gunpowder and bullets.
