Seeing this, Jinwu couldn't help but exclaim: "What a crossbow!"

Li Yu's mouth raised, he stepped back and retreated far enough, and he moved the input rod continuously.

Pa, pa, pa—

The crossbow machine continuously shot out crossbow arrows, and nine more crossbow arrows continued to appear on the trunk, each crossbow arrow was three points into the woods.

It was the first time that Jinwu saw a crossbow, and he couldn't help but be stunned. The speed of fire was too fast, and he could actually shoot out ten arrows in one breath.

Although its strength is still slightly insufficient and not as good as a single crossbow, it is not far from the same distance.

Li Yu's smile on his face became even stronger. He couldn't let go of this crossbow.

He asked, "Mr. Lu, how long is the range of the crossbow?"

Ruchi said, "Report to Your Highness, you can hurt the enemy within forty steps!"

Forty steps!

It is about sixty meters away.

Well! The range is 60 meters, which is enough for short handover!

Li Yu asked enthusiastically: "If it is mass-produced, how many units can be made in a day?"

"This... depends on how many skilled craftsmen are."

Li Yu waved to Zhu's ultimate move.

Zhu Da immediately stepped forward.

Li Yu asked: "Feiwei Mansion has its own armory and its own craftsmen, right?"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

“How many craftsmen are there?”

"Well……"

Zhu Da thought about it for a while and said, "It should be around a hundred people."

Li Yu immediately looked at Ruqi.

Ruqi calculated and said, "If one hundred skilled craftsmen calculate and make good molds, fifty crossbows can be built a day."

Li Yu nodded and said, "Mr. Lu will live in the royal palace today. Tomorrow, follow me to Feiwei Mansion. I plan to build five hundred units first."

He could not let Ruchi hire craftsmen and make crossbows.

Privately building military equipment such as crossbows and armor is a death sentence.

If the prince creates these things privately, it will be even more sinful and he will cause trouble for himself.

Therefore, to make a series of crossbows, Feiwei Mansion must be made.

In the evening, Li Ju and Li Guan and his son came to the Wu Palace.

The two also brought a lot of gifts.

Seeing the big box raised by the servants, Li Yu even doubted whether the elder brother and son were going to move to their homes.

He asked in confusion: "Brother, you are..."

Li Ju said with a smile: "This time, the Seventeenth brother has helped my elder brother a lot. These are all thank you gifts given to the Seventeenth brother!"

Li Yu grinned and said, "Brother, there are too many of these! Besides, Big Brother is innocent, I just luckily found out the case..."

Before he could finish his words, Li Ju waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Through this incident, I have understood. Among all the brothers, only the Seventeenth brother will really help me!"

The other brothers were waiting to see his jokes and wait for him to collapse so that they could grab the position of the crown prince.

Just thinking about it, Li Ju felt heartbroken.

Li Guan continued, "Don't refuse Uncle Seventeen! Uncle Seventeen is the benefactor of the Eastern Palace. The gift he sent was just a show of his heart."

Li Yu looked helpless, as if he was reluctant to take it.

Then, he warmly greeted Li Ju and Li Guan to take their seats.

Li Ju and Li Yu made some polite words and then got to the point. He said: "I heard that the real murderer behind the blame on the East Palace this time was Li Yun?"

"Yes, brother!"

Li Ji shook his head and said, "Li Yun is a mere guest and an aide. Even if he has the courage to blame the Eastern Palace, he will not dare to blame him. Therefore, Li Yun cannot be the real murderer."

yes!

No one would believe that Li Yun is the real murderer.

Li Yu smiled bitterly and said, "But now all the evidence of crimes is directed at Li Yun, and Li Yun committed suicide because of the crime. Feiwei Mansion can only determine that Li Yun is the real murderer!"

Li Ju leaned towards Li Yu and asked, "Seventeenth brother, tell my elder brother the truth, did Li Yun really commit suicide?"

"this……"

Li Yu hasn't seen Li Yun's body yet, but Hu Yueying and Gao An have both tested it, so there should be no mistake.

He nodded and said, "The autopsy result of Feiwei Mansion is to take poison first and then hang it."

"The poison may be caused by someone to force it into it. If it is hung, it is easier to be forged." Li Guan interrupted.

Li Yu spread his hands, and this was not something he could explain clearly.

Li Ju sighed and said, "It was the King of Yan who harmed me. He wanted my position as crown prince!"

Li Yu was shocked and said quickly: "Brother..."

Li Ju waved his hand at him, his tone was a little tired, and said, "The King of Yan was thinking hard and wanted to kill me and the Eastern Palace. The evil methods and meticulous thoughts made people shudder.

"Seventeenth brother, you third brother is not simple. You ruined his big event this time and let all his efforts be wasted. He will definitely hold a grudge against you. In the future, you should be more careful!"

The assassin has come to him now and wants to take his head away!

Li Yu muttered in his heart.

He said, "Brother, I want to ask you for a favor."

"What's the matter? If you have something to do with your seventeenth brother, just say it, don't be polite to your elder brother!"

"Brother, go and tell our father, and let me go back to the fiefdom!"

Li Ju and Li Guan both showed shock when they heard this.

The former frowned and asked, "Seventeenth brother still wants to return to the fiefdom?"

Li Yu scratched his head and said, "The capital is too chaotic and dangerous. I still feel that staying in the fiefdom is the most comfortable and safest..."

Li Ju shook his head and said meaningfully: "You are already a prince, and you are already in a vortex. You can avoid danger by hiding in the fiefdom. What should be come, and you will come in the end. Does the Seventeenth Brother still understand this principle?"

Li Yu drooped his head.

Li Ju stood up, patted his shoulder, and said, "Okay, it's time for brother to go back."

Li Yu sent Li Ju and Li Guan out of the house.

On the way back to the East Palace, Li Guan asked, "Dad, is Uncle Seventeen really unwilling to stay in the capital?"

You should know that none of the kings willing to leave the capital are trying their best to stay in the capital, hoping that the dragon throne will fall under his butt.

Li Ju did not directly answer Li Guan’s question.

He said seriously: "Guan'er, if one day, father... unfortunately an accident happened, you only have two people to rely on, one is your emperor's grandfather, and the other is your seventeenth uncle."

Li Guan's face changed drastically and he said anxiously: "Dad——"

Li Ju waved his hand to him and sighed to the sky: "Who can predict what will happen tomorrow if you are on the target of public criticism?"

Take this incident as an example. If Li Yu had not stepped forward and investigated the case in a timely manner, the prince would have been in danger and would have been a life-threatening death.

Li Guan's eyes were wet and red.

Looking at his father, who was not very old but showed an old look, his heart was sore and he couldn't help but say ruthlessly: "I really want to kill those jackals who eat people!"

Perhaps it was from this time that Li Guan's heart sowed the seeds of hatred for the kings.
