C74 (2/2)
She muttered to herself for a long time before she suddenly said this.
Zhu Guanliang looked down at her, ”Why do you say that?”
”It would be weird if a woman could marry you like this!” She blushed after drinking so much that she pulled off her mask and poked his face with her hand. ”Don't be so competitive when drinking with women. Can't you let them give in?”
”You want me to let you go?”
”Then I'm also a woman!”
”I really couldn't tell.”
She tilted her head and leaned into his embrace, grabbing his collar, rubbing it around, ”I am indeed stronger, but … ”But I'm also a woman, everyone thinks I'm made of iron, I'm not a real iron …”
When she was drunk, she would turn into a different person. Normally, she would say that she was a bit unhappy with her woman, so she swung her iron fists and wanted to beat her up. Now that she was drunk, she wanted others to treat her like a woman.
”I'll tell you earlier next time. If I'm in a good mood, I can let you have it.”
She frowned and muttered, ”Serves you right for not being able to marry a wife your entire life!”
”There are too many women who want to marry me.”
She retorted with a little unwillingness, ”I don't want to!”
Zhu Guanliang said without a trace of politeness, ”I don't want you even if you want me to.”
”I don't care who you are. When I return home, I'll raise eight male pets. When that happens, I'll look for someone more beautiful than you! Who do you think you are? I don't care at all!”
When he finished speaking, it sounded like the words of a child filled with anger. The childish competition made Zhu Guanliang want to laugh.
”When you return, I might not be willing to follow you.”
By this time, there were already few people on the street. He carried her as he walked down the empty street and into the deep night.
He walked steadily, step by step, as Zhou Leping gradually closed her eyes while leaning against his chest.
When the guards at the General's Estate entrance saw their general drunk and Zhu Guanliang carrying him back, they all revealed an expression of tacit understanding, as if ”such a once in a hundred years experience was recorded in history”.
Qu Tan was originally dozing off on the table. Seeing Zhu Guanliang come back with the drunk Zhou Leping in his arms, she quickly went to boil some hot water to wash her face and rinse her mouth.
She seemed to resent the amount of alcohol she drank, and even after she had gone to sleep, she muttered that she wanted to compete with him.
Zhu Guanliang pulled up the blanket for her, but when the blanket reached her chest, his hands suddenly jerked.
Zhou Leping turned his body unconsciously, and the book came out from her bosom. Zhu Guanliang picked it up and opened it, and saw that it was a blueprint.
On it was a design of a machine crossbow. The style was very familiar, it was a conventional weapon used by Qi Kingdom soldiers.
State Of Zhao and Qi Kingdom had always been peaceful and friendly, peaceful and friendly. For her to suddenly research on this, it seems like there was a problem with her.
The machine crossbow could continuously be used, moreover, their range was far, and their strength was also greater than that of a normal bow and arrow. After being shot, they would basically all be pierced, their movements were simple and delicate, whether it be on the battlefield killing enemies or assassination attempts, they were all good weapons.
She was trying to find a way to solve the problem, and it was also because she couldn't improve on the original foundation.
Zhu Guanliang returned the book back to her arms and covered her with a blanket. He told Qu Tan to cook a bowl of sobering wine for her and when he returned back, he drew a new set of machine crossbow s according to the method she used.
