The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.

Qin Ting was very quick. The eunuch who delivered the message said that the Crown Princess was very anxious.

So Qin Ting did not dare to delay and immediately took his blacksmithing tools and his wife and got on the carriage.

Zhao Qing also brought her half-improved loom with her, intending to continue her research in the palace.

Since Zhao Qing got married, she has never been separated from her husband. She always goes wherever her husband goes.

The couple is very sweet now.

When they arrived at the palace gate, the guards at the gate received news from the prince, checked the carriage, and let it in.

In fact, Qin Ting’s hammer and other items were not allowed, but the prince had given the order, so the guards did not dare to stop him.

After arriving at the Eastern Palace, a group of young eunuchs came and helped Qin Ting carry things.

Before Qin Wan became pregnant, she had a small blacksmith shop in Yichun Palace, where she could make her own weapons.

Now there is only one tiger, Hu Tou, in Yichun Palace, and a little lion comes occasionally.

In fact, because there was a tiger head in Yichun Palace, everyone in the palace knew there was a tiger here, so they didn't dare to come.

Qin Wan felt at ease leaving the things she needed to keep secret here.

Qin Ting and Zhao Qing were arranged to live in the side hall here. They would stay in the palace for some days.

When Zhao Qing and Qin Ting came over, they saw Qin Wan holding her belly and waiting in the yard.

"Awan, why are you in such a hurry? Although the weather is warmer now, why did you come out?"

When Qin Ting saw Qin Wan coming out, he couldn't help but mutter a few words.

When Zhao Qing saw Qin Wan, she still called her "Sister-in-law!" as she had called her before.

Zhao Qing and Qin Ting agreed that they would discuss their own matters and neither would interfere with the other.

Qin Ting also thought it was good, it was just a title.

Qin Wan couldn't lie in bed all the time at this time. It would be better for her to walk around in the yard more.

"I called you here this time because I want you to stay in the palace for a few days."

Zhao Qing came to Qin Wan and helped her walk, "Sister-in-law, is it not a good idea for us to stay overnight in the palace?"

Qin Ting is a foreigner after all.

Qin Wan shook her head, "It's okay. I'll need your husband to help out these few days. The prince has already made arrangements."

Qin Ting became curious, "Awan, what's going on?"

He stretched out his arm and showed it to Qin Wan, "Look, I've gained strength recently!"

Qin Wan smiled and said, "The Crown Prince will go to war in five days. I want to make him something to protect himself. I'm pregnant now, so I have to trouble my second brother to do it."

Zhao Qing and Qin Ting had been in the mountains the whole time, so naturally they had no idea of the news in Beijing.

"Sister-in-law, is my brother going to the war because of the war in the north?"

Zhao Qing did not go to marry at that time. Later, the imperial court and the Hu people fought, and Zhao Qing was always thinking about this matter.

Qin Wan nodded, "Yes, the war in the north is intense, General Wang has lost three battles, and the prince wants to go to the north to see the situation in person."

For a moment, Zhao Qing fell silent.

Qin Ting became curious, "Awan, what are you going to do?"

The three of them came to Qin Wan's study. Qin Wan took out a blueprint and handed it over. "Second brother, this is the blueprint of chain mail. Take a good look at it."

Chain mail is a type of metal armor, usually made of iron wire or iron rings that are put together into a garment shape. Each ring is linked to the other four rings, shaped like a net lock.

Qin Ting looked at the things on the drawing and saw tiny iron rings surrounding them. He scratched his head and said, "Awan, these are clothes made of iron rings!"

Qin Wan nodded, "Almost, but you don't need to wear sleeves, it's mainly for protecting the chest and back."

"Well, it's a bit complicated to make. My brother-in-law will be leaving in five days. I may not be able to finish it by myself."

Qin Wan smiled and said, "I know. I'll give you the blueprints and you can take them to the Military Equipment Bureau. The prince has already made arrangements.

Go pick a few skilled craftsmen to work with you and make this thing as soon as possible."

Seeing someone helping him, Qin Ting nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll go to the Military Equipment Bureau now."

Qin Ting went straight to the Military Equipment Bureau without stopping. He had been working there for several months and was familiar with all the craftsmen from top to bottom.

Qin Ting left in a hurry.

Qin Wan had time to talk to Zhao Qing about the situation outside.

"Is everything okay, Zhuangzi?"

Zhao Qing nodded, "Yes, everything is fine. The clock workshop is very busy. I heard that they received a big order from Jiangnan."

Qin Wan was very satisfied. The clock recorded time accurately, which was much more convenient than hourglasses.

"Second Aunt has been in the palace for a while, but she's busy at home."

Zhao Qing glanced at Qin Wan and said uncomfortably, "My mother is not feeling well."

Qin Wan was stunned when she heard this, "How could it be possible? Call the imperial physician."

The Second Lady was the woman Qin Wan cherished most in this dynasty.

She is more important than the original owner's biological mother.

Seeing Qin Wan was anxious, Zhao Qing said shyly, "My mother is pregnant!"

Qin Wan: “…”

This happened a bit suddenly.

Then she felt normal again, as the Second Lady was only 37 years old.

"This is good news. Why didn't Second Aunt send the news to the palace?"

Zhao Qing shook her head helplessly. "My mother feels ashamed. She is already this age and is pregnant. She thinks people outside will laugh at her."

The Second Madam is now in good health, and Uncle Zhao has no other concubines.

It is normal for them to have a child, not to mention that they have Doctor Lu to nourish their bodies.

The second wife is now Qin Ting's mother-in-law, and Dr. Lu lives with his granddaughter in the Qin family.

We all came to the capital from the north, so the relationship between us is different.

Because the Qin brothers married Lu Ruying and Zhao Qing, the second wife and old doctor Lu can be considered relatives.

Qin Wan said with a smile: "Second Aunt, you are overthinking. This is a great thing. No, I want to send something to Second Aunt."

Qin Wan was pregnant, and Zhao Zhen stuffed a lot of good things into the warehouse.

The emperor also paid attention to Qin Wan's pregnancy, and he gave some of the tributes sent from various places to Qin Wan.

"Come on, follow me to the warehouse and pick out some good things for Second Aunt."

Zhao Qing felt embarrassed, but didn't know how to refuse.

"Sister-in-law, there's no need..."

Qin Wan patted Zhao Qing's hand and said, "It's nothing. I'm going to give birth in a few months, and I can't eat too much now. Those supplements are just right for Second Aunt."

Thinking of something, she looked at Zhao Qing's belly again, "You're married too, is there any movement in your belly?"

Zhao Qing blushed and shook her head, "No, sister-in-law, I'm not pregnant."

Qin Wan thought of the wish that the little lion made and smiled, "The little lion is looking forward to it very much. He wants you to give him a brother with the same hair as him!"

Zhao Qing saw her husband's expression and didn't find it strange. "I hope so too!"
