The crown prince took it and glanced at it, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Could there be another secret hidden in this vase?" the Crown Prince asked.

"Very likely, we can try breaking it to see."

The prince walked a little further away and smashed the dark green vase on the ground.

The crisp sound of porcelain shattering rang out, and among the dark green shards scattered on the ground, there was indeed a slightly yellowed piece of paper!

"It really exists!" Qin Wanying blurted out.

The prince picked up the paper and quickly unfolded it.

It was still a large sheet of paper, covered with densely packed small characters, but without any accompanying pictures.

The prince looked at the paper, and his hand holding it trembled slightly.

"It's the second half of the military treatise of the superior nation!" The crown prince, who was usually a man who never showed his emotions, now spoke with a slight tremor in his voice, indicating that it was something of great importance.

"The military treatise of the superior state, what is that?" Qin Wanying asked, as the novel did not mention it.

"The military treatise of our superior nation is a very famous military strategy. Ancient people have used this strategy to win great victories," the prince replied.

"However, too much time has passed, and only the first half of the scroll is still circulating; the second half has been lost."

The first half of this book is already a classic. He once studied it all night long, completely absorbed in it. Qin Wanying's second brother, General Qin Xiaorong, won many battles by relying on the first half of this book on military strategy from the superior state.

Xiao Dongqian was also well-versed in the first half of this military treatise and won many battles in the eastern frontier. Many of his combat strategies came from this superior military treatise.

Now, this unassuming little green vase actually contains the second half of a military treatise!

"Miss Qin, thank you so much for allowing my Great Yao to obtain such a valuable military treatise!" the Crown Prince said.

Qin Wanying replied, "Your Highness is too kind. Obtaining this military treatise was an accident, not something I calculated."

The Crown Prince immediately made a decision: the blueprints should be given to Qin Xiaoyan so that he could develop the cannons.

Have someone make a copy of the military treatise and send it to Qin Xiaorong.

At the same time, we must strictly keep the news under wraps and not reveal that we have obtained these two items, so as not to alert the enemy.

Qin Wanying will also be richly rewarded.

I will go to the palace tomorrow and tell my father about these things.

Qin Wanying was also happy, and seeing the Crown Prince happy made her even happier.

She had previously thought that Teng Ming was a kind-hearted man, and that he had given her a lot of decorative vases.

Now, she is grateful that Teng Ming gave her so many beautiful vases.

The second half of this military treatise of the superior nation was something that even the male and female protagonists hadn't obtained, yet now she had it!

Qin Wanying carefully examined the remaining vases; they were all ordinary vases, without any cloud patterns on the necks.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your Helping Value has increased by 60! Please keep up the good work!]

Qin Wanying felt even happier upon hearing the system notification.

Great, this matter is resolved, and my Helping Points have increased by 60!

She's already looking forward to the next upgrade.

I got a gold affix during the last upgrade, I wonder if I'll get one again during the next upgrade?

Even if it doesn't yield any gold-tier entries, having an extra life is still pretty good!

At noon, the Crown Prince and Qin Wanying had lunch.

When Qin Wanying was having lunch, she was surprised to find that the Crown Prince had not removed his makeup and was still in disguise.

"Your Highness, why haven't you removed your makeup yet?" Qin Wanying asked in surprise.

"You went to so much trouble to put on this makeup. If I were to remove it so quickly, wouldn't it be a waste of your efforts?"

Qin Wanying: ? ? ?

How could all that effort be wasted? I was out all morning.

"I am taking a rare day off today and would like to go out and see the city. The Crown Prince's identity is too conspicuous, so I will still disguise myself as your guard."

Qin Wanying: o((⊙﹏⊙))o.

Okay, okay, as long as you're happy.

In the afternoon, the two went out together and walked through the market.

Qin Wanying didn't consult fortune tellers, so she didn't cover her face with a veil.

Qin Wanying saw a wooden rabbit carving at the market, and her eyes lit up.

She found the wood carving quite charming and took a second look at it.

The crown prince noticed her expression and smiled slightly.

"Miss, please wait a moment, I'll be right back."

After saying that, he left and went straight to the place selling wood carvings. "Boss, I want this wood carving."

"That'll be five taels of silver," the shopkeeper said.

The prince simply took the money out of his purse and readily gave it to the shopkeeper.

Qin Wanying: Five taels is too expensive. As expected of the Crown Prince, he doesn't even haggle when buying things.

Wait a minute, the Crown Prince came out with me carrying his own money bag.

The prince took back the wooden carving, his eyes beaming with joy: "Miss, do you like it?"

Qin Wanying smiled and accepted the wood carving with both hands: "I like it very much."

My heart felt like it was pounding.

That's strange. Wasn't she disguised as my bodyguard? Why do I have this strange feeling of being in love with her?

The Crown Prince regretted giving Qin Wanying the wood carving as a gift.

Because Qin Wanying got her hands on the wood carving, her attention was completely focused on it. She played with it in her hands, clearly enjoying it, and completely ignored him.

When they arrived at a horse market, Qin Wanying immediately took a liking to a little white horse.

She had her own horse in the Marquis's residence, but she wasn't very satisfied with it.

Good horses are rare and hard to come by. Her father had taught her how to judge horses, and this white horse was clearly a one-in-a-million gem.

Not only is it a fine steed, but it is also very handsome, standing out among other horses and making it impossible to look away.

"What a fine horse!" Xiao Jiye exclaimed from the side.

Qin Wanying quickly ran over and asked, "How much is this horse?"

The shopkeeper smiled apologetically, "Miss, I'm really sorry, this horse has already been reserved. You can take a look at the other horses. The customer who wanted to buy the horse has already arrived." He then pointed to a spot not far away.

Qin Wanying turned around and saw a young man walking towards her.

After paying a thousand taels of silver, the young master's servant was about to lead the horse away.

Qin Wanying stepped forward and said, "Young master, I really like this horse. Would you like to sell it to me? I'm willing to pay two thousand taels of silver."

The young man smiled apologetically at Qin Wanying: "Miss, I'm so sorry, I also really like this horse, and I can't part with it."

Judging from this young master's appearance, he doesn't seem to be short of money, so his idea of ​​paying a high price for the horse seems unrealistic.

Qin Wanying stared at the man for a few seconds.

[So he's the son of a junior official in the Ministry of Rites; his maternal family is very wealthy. No wonder he could afford to spend a thousand taels of silver to buy a horse.]

He doesn't have any major problems; if we can't help him solve them, we'll have to change horses.

This person likes to collect antiques, but I don't have any antiques, so I can't trade them for a horse.

Qin Wanying's expression clearly showed disappointment.

It's rare to find such a fine horse, and it's already been bought by someone else.

Qin Wanying glanced at the horse reluctantly, then turned to leave.

Xiao Jiye watched Qin Wanying's disappointed expression and felt a tightness in his chest. He really couldn't bear to see Qin Wanying sad.

Do you like antiques? I have some.

If you use his status as the crown prince to pressure him, he will definitely offer up the horse with both hands.

However, he was a prince, not a bandit, and did not want to do that. So, he decided to exchange it for antiques.

"Young master, please wait a moment." Xiao Jiye caught up with the man who was about to leave.

“My young lady said she really likes this horse and is willing to exchange it for the last porcelain pot made by Ji Hao, the top craftsman of the Rui Dynasty, before his death.”
