After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win

After the emperor left, Li Chengze seemed to come to his senses and bowed deeply to the emperor's back.

"Your son... obeys your order..."

When he raised his head, he murmured, "This is good, I can leave here..."

Since knowing that Li Chengze was also going, the Queen as well as Li Qingyang and Li Runyan had all come to see him, but he sent them away with a few words.

As soon as he felt better, he said goodbye to them and set off with the army.

Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi stood beside the carriage, watching the army going away.

Next to them were Cheng Ziyan and Rong Jiuxuan, who were supporting the sad Song Minyun on the left and right, and they were all watching the receding army in silence.

The days are no different, passing one after another, except that they are less lively and more solemn and depressing.

This time, Cheng Lao Hu and his army brought the explosives they had researched before. Although explosives were difficult to make and there were not many of them, they were still able to give the Jin people quite a shock.

Li Chengze, Cheng Ziang and Ye Wei were fighting on the battlefield. The three of them were covered in blood and had determination on their faces.

Cheng Ziang killed a soldier and shouted in joy!

Ye Wei chopped down the enemy soldiers who wanted to launch a sneak attack on him.

"Be careful, you can show off later."

"Got it! Haha, guys, your grandpa is here to take your life!!"

Li Chengze kept looking at the person rushing towards him, and his gentle temperament had undergone a drastic change.

His temperament is bursting with majesty and solemnity.

Cheng Lao Hu and other veteran generals saw the changes in the prince and were amazed at the emperor's wisdom, which made the prince become more mature.

The Jin people were born on horseback and their riding skills were better than those of the Dongwu soldiers. When gunpowder appeared on the battlefield, they were also shocked.

But the Jin people seemed to have no fear of death and rushed forward desperately, as if they wanted to use up all their gunpowder with people.

This discovery made them feel bad. Gunpowder was extremely powerful but difficult to make. Although the production of gunpowder had never stopped, it could only support their usage for half a month.

They are now only occasionally going out of the city to fight the Jin people, and it is not time to fight to the death yet.

When the people in the capital received the message, everyone was discussing how to subdue the Jin people.

After the discussion failed, Lin Yecheng went to Qin's residence after the court session.

He passed the palace examination in June and entered the court. He also vaguely learned from his father that Qin Yan was the one who invented gunpowder. This time he came to find Qin Yan to see if there was any way to improve Dongwu's combat effectiveness.

Lin Yecheng had been here many times, and the doorman did not stop him and took him directly to the garden.

In the garden, Jiang Zhi was urging Qin Yan to give the child a name.

There are many books on the table in front of Qin Yan, including "Thousand Characters", "Hundred Herbal Classics", "Book of Songs"...

There are also some 300 Tang poems written by Qin Yan, and he said he wanted to find out if there are any meaningful names.

Qin Yan was flipping through a book when Lin Yecheng came over. When he went to see Old Tang to take his pulse a few days ago, he knew it was a boy.

Now Qin Yan has to think of a name for the boy. Actually, Qin Yan thinks that since it is not a girl's name, any name will do. Boys are strong and easy to raise.

Jiang Zhi refused to accept this. The child she had carried for ten months was not even named by Qin Yan. So was this child hers alone?

After knowing Qin Yan's idea, he ordered him to come up with a nice and meaningful name, and he could not go back to sleep if he couldn't think of one.

Qin Yan worked hard to choose a name. He originally thought it couldn't be that difficult. However, it turned out that his wife didn't like the name he chose and wanted to choose a new one.

What can we do? Think about it.

Lin Yecheng came in and sat next to him, picking up the paper on the table, "Brother Qin and sister-in-law, what are you doing? Qin Tianhui? This is..."

When Jiang Zhi heard this, she wanted to roll her eyes at Qin Yan. How could one choose a name so casually?

"Ask him."

Lin Yecheng looked at Qin Yan, not wanting to say more. In fact, he had a vague guess: yeah... he was really casual.

Qin Yan felt good about himself and asked Lin Yecheng, "This is the name I gave my son. What do you think? It's good, isn't it? I got it from the poem 'The Yellow River comes from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns'."

Lin Yecheng couldn't bring himself to say the compliment, so he looked at the other names.

Qin Batian...

Qin Yizhuang....

Qin Yi....

Lin Yecheng only saw the last one, Qin Yi, and it seemed normal.

When Lin Yecheng was silent, Jiang Zhi seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and got up and left, letting them chat here while she went for a walk.

Jiang Zhi said that she was really socially frustrated and she couldn't stay there any longer.

Qin Yan told her to be careful and looked at Lin Yecheng. He knew that Lin Yecheng must have something to ask him, so he didn't follow Jiang Zhi.

In the end, Lin Yecheng put down the paper and let himself go.

He raised his hand and coughed twice, "Ahem, Brother Qin, this name may not be suitable for you. How about I give you some advice."

"Okay, you say." Qin Yan also knew that his name was useless, so he planned to start. This kind of thing should be left to this group of scholars.

"Why don't you discuss it with your sister-in-law? It's better than coming up with it on your own. Also, if you really want to take a name from these poems, it might be better to take a single word."

Qin Yan thought about it and it was true. It would definitely be better to let his wife think with him than to think by himself. Every word sounded good.

With a plan in mind, she asked him why he came. "Thanks, brother. So, why did you come to see me today? I don't believe you just wandered in here for no reason."

Lin Yecheng was embarrassed, but he still explained his purpose, "That's not the case. I just came back from court and came to see you."

"What do you want from me?" Qin Yan said as he tidied up the things on the table.

Lin Yecheng was straightforward and asked directly, "The situation at the border is not good right now. The Jin people's riding skills are unmatched by Dongwu. Now the Jin people are waiting for us to run out of gunpowder before attacking us. So I came to ask if you have any good ideas."

Speaking of business, Qin Yan straightened up and thought seriously, "The Jin people are good at riding horses. We can't let all our soldiers learn to ride horses all at once, and our horses are still different from the horses that grow up on the grassland."

Seeing that Qin Yan was thinking, Lin Yecheng did not disturb him and just listened to him quietly.

"If you can't win in riding, then you can only shoot arrows. Traditional archery can't hit a galloping horse. You need something more powerful..."

"An arrow with more power, capable of injuring a horse from a distance, is... a crossbow!!"

Qin Yan snapped his fingers when he finally said it, "Yes, it's the crossbow. It's powerful and easy to use. This is it."

Lin Yecheng didn't understand and was full of confusion, "What is a bow...a crossbow?"

"Well, it doesn't matter if you don't know. You just need to know that this crossbow is much more powerful than an arrow. It will be no problem to shoot through the Jin people. Wait, I'll make it and show it to you."

"it is good."

I chatted with Qin Yan for a while and then left.
