The seven emotions and six desires are all my nourishment

"Ah! That won't do! Eunuch Su, please prepare the sedan chair quickly. I will carry it myself!" Liu Ruyan frowned and hurriedly urged the chief steward Su Fuwang who was trying to hold back his laughter.

"Hahahaha! Naughty boy!" The old emperor laughed so hard that his beard fluttered.

Seeing his father laughing so heartily, the Crown Prince couldn't help but laugh himself. He stood up and bowed, trying to help Liu Ruyan out. "Father, Lord Liu's gift must be excellent. I'd like to join in the fun, too. I wonder if Lord Liu is available."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingxin quickly responded with a smile, "It would be great if Your Highness would honor me with your presence."

"Your Majesty, let me help you!" Liu Ruyan tried to help him but was pushed away.

"Go away, monkey!" The old emperor scolded with a smile. Even though he was weak, he was not to the point of needing support.

"Since you want to watch, let's all come together!"

"Yes!" The eunuch received the order and the singing and dancing stopped.

The Third Prince also followed out of curiosity, but he had always looked down on Liu Ruyan. She was obviously a talented person, but he was a servile and servile person, so he had never taken the initiative to make friends with her.

The crowd came to an open area.

Liu Mingxin ordered his men to place a wooden board in the distance, and then solemnly took out the musket.

The musket has a silvery-white luster all over, and looks mysterious under the moonlight.

Everyone looked puzzled and murmured among themselves. The old emperor also leaned forward curiously.

At this moment, Liu Mingxin held the musket, aimed at the wooden board, and pulled the trigger suddenly. There was a loud bang!

"Bang!" Fire suddenly appeared and smoke filled the air!

The third prince instantly drew his sword and protected the old emperor.

Looking at the wooden board again, a big hole had been punched in it!

Everyone present was stunned and fell silent for a moment before bursts of exclamations erupted after a moment.

The old emperor's eyes widened as he exclaimed in praise, "This is a divine artifact! My dear Liu, was this created by you?"

Liu Mingxin replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, this humble servant has spent a long time researching and developing this artifact. It is extremely powerful. If used in the military, it will greatly enhance our combat effectiveness."

"So I gave the blueprints to the Ministry of Works long ago. I was afraid they would outdo me... hehe..."

The Third Prince's face was filled with surprise, and there was even more admiration in his eyes as he looked at Liu Mingxin.

The prince was a little worried. This method might be...

"So, I secretly made two swords myself. This one is for my own use, and I prepared a gold sword for you. It is so shiny and powerful that it can protect you."

Liu Ruyan, who had just said a few serious words, became servile again and took out a golden musket from a box beside her and handed it to the old emperor.

The old emperor took it and fired two shots. The third prince's eyes lit up and he no longer felt any aversion to Liu Ruyan. Instead, he approached her. He wanted the silver musket.

"Hahaha, good, good!" The old emperor laughed heartily. He was very satisfied with the musket, and even more satisfied with Liu Mingxin.

He immediately planned to betroth the third princess to Liu Mingxin, but Liu Mingxin was startled and immediately knelt down, "No, no, Your Majesty, I like men!"

The air was silent for a moment, the Third Prince's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he subconsciously stepped back!

Sure enough, there was a commotion and the emperor was furious. Liu Mingxin was driven back to the palace and confined to his house, facing the wall to reflect on his mistakes!

That day, when all the officials returned home, Liu Mingxin could no longer sit still.

The man in the dream of the boudoir has broken countless girls’ hearts.

The emperor in the palace was also very troubled, and the prince and several younger brothers were accompanying him.

After a long time, the old emperor looked serious and chose the Minister of Works to enter the hall.

The Minister of Works, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, wiped his sweat and came over with a musket.

It turned out that the Ministry of Works had already manufactured a batch of muskets according to the drawings, but the effect was not good. The old emperor thought of Liu Mingxin's talents and decided to let him be responsible for improving and training the new army to use muskets.

But Liu Mingxin didn't know what was good for him and made the emperor angry, so the old emperor decided to leave him alone.

……

Liu Ruyan is safe. Except for someone following him and trying to spy on him, his life is safe. However, he has suffered heavy casualties due to his various tricks.

The Third Princess came to see Liu Mingxin upon hearing the news. Her eyes were red. With good etiquette, she stood straight even in such an extraordinary situation. "Do you really like men? Or do you just not like me?"

Liu Mingxin shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I would rather offend the emperor than have my career in the government become more difficult."

"The princess is so outstanding, she should find an outstanding man." As he was speaking, the third princess understood what he meant, covered her face and ran away crying.

Liu Mingxin sighed, went back to the house, changed into casual clothes, and ran out through the small door for a walk.

The Third Prince's elite troops hurried to catch up, but it was the same as before, they couldn't find him anymore.

The third prince had no choice but to report to the old emperor.

The old emperor was so angry that he laughed, "You go in person, I want to see what else he is hiding from me!"

"Yes, your son obeys your command!" The third prince bowed and accepted the order.

But the Third Prince also failed. He was always seen entering a clothing store or a teahouse and then disappearing!

But when he came out again, the man came back from this place!

Could it be a spy from the enemy country? No, no...

Could it be a monster?

The Third Prince frowned, his curiosity also aroused.

I directly took out a box of the priceless "Thousand Miles"!
