Chapter 196 What can rumors turn into after a few hours?
After walking around, Xiang Wenxuan and others, who were a little tired, came to the pavilion where Xiang Yixin and the others rested.
After a while of drinking a cup of tea.
Xiang Wenxuan smiled and asked Xiang Yixin: "How is going out this time?"
"Eye-opening!" Xiang Yixin said these words simply and clearly.
"Huh?" These words made the newcomers look surprised.
Seeing everyone's doubts, Xiang Yixin began to explain, "You know, Brother Cao's steel ship can run as fast as he can?"
"Haha, I actually want to take the test for us." Xiang Wenxuan smiled at the officials of all sizes and big and small who came around to watch the fun.
"Haha, since the princess has made the question, let's all guess."
"Okay, it depends on who guesses correctly. If who guesses the closest answer, then this jade pendant will be given to him as a prize." Xiang Wenxuan became interested when he heard Xiang Yixin's words and took off a jade pendant with white mutton fat from his waist.
Everyone present looked at each other first, and one of them stood up and smiled, "The princess actually said in this tone, which means that the speed is definitely not low, and the maximum speed of a horse is to travel thousands of miles a day, so I guess this boat should be half the speed of a horse, and it should travel five hundred miles a day."
"Well, Brother Zhang's analysis makes sense. Brother Zhang guesses five hundred, so I'll guess six hundred."
"I guess four hundred..."
...
For a moment, everyone spoke, guessing their numbers.
Xiang Wenxuan saw that everyone had guessed, but Feng Chengzai had not spoken yet, so he smiled and said, "Why haven't General Feng thought about it yet?"
"I think it must be very fast to surprise the princess, and it can compare with the speed of a horse. It should be more than a thousand miles, but I'll guess that it's 1,200 miles." Feng Chengzai analyzed.
Xiang Wenxuan looked around and felt that everyone had guessed it. Then he looked at Xiang Yixin and others, and asked with a smile: "Tell me, who can guess it correctly."
Xiang Yixin shook her head, "No one guessed correctly, and it's too far away, only General Feng's answer is a little closer."
"Oh, then this jade pendant will be given to General Feng." Xiang Wenxuan smiled and handed over the jade pendant.
"Thank you for your appreciation!" Feng Chengzai quickly stood up in the envious eyes of everyone, and took it respectfully with both hands.
However, Xiang Yixin's words made everyone interested. Someone asked: "I wonder how fast this ship can run?"
"Travel four thousand miles a day."
"Hiss-" Everyone would definitely not suspect that Xiang Yixin was lying, but this number is too scary.
"This..." The people present looked at the bright silver warship again, and saw it quietly anchoring in the river, reflecting dazzling light under the sun.
"Then did this Kun kill this boat?" Someone looked at the whale that was broken into skeletons and had a great idea. After all, there are not many incidents in riding a horse and killing people, but there are at least a few cases every year, and they are all running on horseback.
Thinking of the speed of Xiang Yixin's statement, it is not difficult to guess.
But this made many people around laugh, "Yu Tongzhi, you really know how to tell jokes. How many pleasure boats in the Qinhuai River have you ever heard of them that they killed fish?"
"That's not, isn't the speed fast enough?" Yu Tongzhi defended himself. There was a certain reason for this.
"Haha, what's the point of guessing, just ask the princess and the others."
"Yes, I hope the princess will answer our questions."
"It was Brother Cao who jumped on Kun's back with a spear and killed it with his own hands." Xiang Yixin still felt that this matter was a bit fantastic. When he said it, he thought about it and wanted to see if he was dreaming.
Even the person she saw with her own eyes felt this way. When she heard what she said, her expression was so great. Someone had let go of the cup in her hand and fell to the ground. Someone was slanted with the cup, forgot to drink water, and was soaked by tea. Some were even scared to sit on the ground...
"This...this...is really a god!"
At this time, everyone looked at Cao Yan on the high platform in the distance, and felt that there seemed to be countless faint light on him.
...
...
In the evening, the people who were busy with whales finally stopped.
The villagers nearby also left with happy smiles and satisfied.
Because Cao Yan each divided their large piece of meat, and it was also the legendary Kun's meat, everyone spread it in private. From the most popular way to eating this meat, it is good for the body and can supplement the nutrients needed by people. To this day, eating it can last for a hundred years, as well as various difficult and complicated diseases, including infertility, which only took a few hours.
Cao Yan only learned about this when a person in a village who had not given birth to a child for many years came to confirm with Cao Yan.
Of course, he could only complain secretly, everyone's imagination was so big.
He did not think about refuting the rumors and explaining this matter. He would not say that he could not explain it clearly, but said that he would refute the rumors one by one. What's the time and year of going to go? Moreover, he felt that he was not that leisurely.
Everyone chose to stay in Cao Yan's village to have dinner.
Not to mention anything else, these foodies always think that Cao Yan’s food is much better than their own.
In the afternoon, many people came from the city, including Xiang Wenxuan, the Feng family’s old man, and Feng Qingluan. After her sister-in-law Feng Zhuyue’s family leave, she was transferred from the Ministry of War and was called back. It is said that this time she was finally promoted to the next level.
As soon as he entered the banquet, Cao Yan found that the look of the old general Feng Chengzai Feng looking at him was always wrong.
He had a kind of bare possessiveness, which made his back feel a little cold.
When I passed the wine for three rounds and entered a chat state, I was frequently begging Xiang Wenxuan.
Xiang Wenxuan coughed lightly and chose to speak: "Nephew, niece, today I have a ruthless request. I don't know if it should be said or not?"
In fact, after listening to what Xiang Yixin said, how Cao Yan used a spear to kill the giant Kun in the river, he felt so excited. Thinking of Zhang Muer's boxing technique taught by Cao Yan for only two months, he could turn his defeat into victory. There were few bandits in Jiulong Village who could stop Lin Yiru by shooting. It is conceivable that Cao Yan's shooting technique must be a terrifying existence. At this moment, she even wanted to make Cao Yan a master, but after all, Cao Yan was too young and she was still an unmarried girl. He still had to worry about the defense of men and women. Moreover, Lin Yiru should be able to stop Cao Yan's martial arts, which made her give up this idea.
Cao Yan and Lin Yiru looked at each other and nodded. Cao Yan said, "If you have anything, just give me instructions."
"Haha, then I'll just say it, it's General Feng's granddaughter, Miss Qingluan, who wants to be a master of his niece." Xiang Wenxuan said with a smile.
"This matter?" Cao Yan thought it was something. Anyway, one sheep was released and two sheep were driven away. Cao Yan didn't care, but he didn't know what his wife was thinking. So he looked at Lin Yiru who cast a questioning look, and Lin Yiru nodded slightly to Cao Yan...
"Okay." Cao Yan helped Lin Yiru agree.
