Compared to Wei Zi who is currently idle and moldy, Mu Junan who returned to Fengqi City is so busy that he hit the back of his head.

"Head of the house, Eunuch Sun is here." No, Mu Junan entered the house with his first foot, and before he had time to go to the backyard to greet his mother, Eunuch Sun, who was next to the emperor, came behind him.

"Well, I see." With a sigh, Mu Jun'an tidied up his clothes, took a sip of the tea on the table, and then strode out of the room. "Xiaoyue, take the things on the table with you."

"Yes." The maid named Xiaoyue looked at Mu Junan shyly, until she could only see Mu Junan's back, then ran into Mu Junan's room in small hurried steps Ann threw two wooden boxes, one large and one small, on the table and embraced them in her arms.

It's not that Mu Junan doesn't know about Xiaoyue's thoughts. On the contrary, he, who is well-versed in the world, knows Xiaoyue's little thoughts about her daughter's family very clearly.It was just because the person who sent her here was his mother, that's why Mu Junan kept silent.In short, Xiaoyue also understands the rules. Although she is a bit of a nympho, she is quite agile when it comes to handling things.Mu Junan couldn't find an excuse to send her back to her mother, and she didn't want to upset her mother because of a maid, so she simply stayed by her side.

"Eunuch Sun, long time no see." As soon as he arrived at the main hall, Mu Junan saw Eunuch Sun sitting on a chair drinking tea.

"Lord Mu, it's been a long time. I wonder if you enjoyed your trip to the south this time?" Eunuch Sun is from the Imperial Palace, so he is also familiar with Mu Jun'an who often goes to and from the palace.Although they are old enough to be Mu Junan's parents, they are friends of the same generation.As someone who has been with the emperor since he was a child, Eunuch Sun can clearly see the value of Mu Junan.

However, based on the fact that Mu Junan, a businessman, can enter and leave the palace freely, anyone in Fengqi City with a little discernment will not provoke Mu Junan.

"It's okay, okay," said Mu Junan and took out a small wooden box from the two boxes handed over by Xiaoyue. Although the box was small, it was a delicate thing. "Eunuch Sun, this is a gadget that Junan got by chance..." As he spoke, he pushed the box into Eunuch Sun's arms.

In fact, sitting in the position of Eunuch Sun, there are many people around to fawn on, so I have seen all good things.But... the moment he opened the box, Eunuch Sun's eyes still brightened. Inside the dark red carved box was yellow flannel, and in the center of the flannel was a silver goose feather, reflecting the light and shining.If Wei Zi were here, he would point to this silver feather in amazement and be speechless, because it was exactly the one he wanted to leave. "Master Mu, you are polite." Even Eunuch Sun was greedy for such a good thing, so before Mu Junan could say anything, he put the whole box into his sleeve, for fear that someone would snatch it from him.

Once things are in place, the next thing will be easy to handle.Mu Junan hooked the corners of his mouth, pretending to be ignorant and asked. "Eunuch Sun, what's the matter with you being the emperor this time?"

"Ah," after collecting the things, Eunuch Sun revealed a sense of satisfaction all over his body. "Look at our brains. The border battle report came back the day before yesterday. The emperor has been wanting to talk to you. No, our family rushed over as soon as the guards at the city gate heard the news today."

"It shouldn't be too late, let's go." Saying that, Mu Junan stretched out his hand and took the big long box that Xiaoyue was holding, and held it in his hand. "Please, Eunuch Sun."

"Master Mu, please."

As the capital of Fengqi Kingdom, Fengqi City is divided into two layers, the outer layer is Fengqi City, and the inner layer is the imperial city.

Because the carriage clearly indicated the Mu family's Jiahui and Eunuch Sun's badge, so when entering the imperial city, the guards opened the door very quickly.But when they reached the palace gate on the second floor, the carriage could not enter.Mu Junan could only follow Eunuch Sun all the way inside.

"Lord Mu, Eunuch Sun."

"Hello Eunuch Sun, Lord Mu."

……

Along the way, Mu Junan met many courtiers. Looking at the sky, it is likely that after the early court, the emperor asked everyone to discuss the situation in the frontier. It seems that news from the front line has indeed come back.Thinking of this, a smile flashed across Mu Junan's eyes. From the expressions of those courtiers, Mu Junan already knew that he would make a lot of money next time.

Although the imperial city has a large area, relatively speaking, the imperial palace is relatively close to the palace gate, so after walking for about half an hour, Mu Junan saw the imperial study room.

"Your Majesty." Without waiting for Eunuch Sun's summons, Mu Junan stood outside for a while, then opened the door and went in by himself.

"Jun'an, you're back." The emperor, who was wearing a formal suit with black background and red stripes, was sitting behind the desk, and when he saw Mu Jun'an coming in, he had a happy smile on his face.

"Mu Junan kowtowed to the emperor." After bowing to the emperor, Mu Junan stood up.

The current emperor is over 50 years old, but it may be because of the particularity of the royal family that he looks much younger than normal people. "Jun An, how did I hear that there are new weapons on the front line?" He didn't beat around the bush with Mu Junan, the emperor directly mentioned the point.

In fact, the emperor knew about this matter because of the battle report from the front line.Zong Yu, who brought the spear back to the front line, did a great deed this time. According to Mu Junan's words, it was the dog's brain that finally contained something other than meat and bones.Of course, what Mu Junan didn't know was that, in a sense, Zong Yu was so active because of a huge "meat bone".

Because the number of spears made by Wei Zi was limited at the beginning, Zong Yu selected a small number of personal soldiers to form a team of spears. Because he remembered Wei Zi’s previous mention of the spears with mounts, the standard configuration of this team is War horses, armor and spears.After training for two days, Zong Yu taught everyone how to use long spears, just in time for another barbarian attack, so Zong Yu brought the whole team to the forefront of the battlefield, using war to hone the team.

In this way, the first "cavalry squad" of Fengqi Kingdom was hastily formed.

Anyone who has played siege strategy knows that the points of cavalry are much higher than those of infantry.The war between the two sides is not without an immediate confrontation, but as the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is strong. Compared with the usual knives, the length of the spear can be said to have an advantage.In addition, it is a weapon that everyone has never seen before.So after a battle, the spear team had the lowest injury rate among all the teams, but the number of kills was the highest, ranking first with three times the number of kills that ranked second.

And Zong Yu himself got the nickname of "butcher".

At first, everyone didn't think much of the long spear, but after this battle, the long spear became the weapon most wanted by the soldiers in the barracks.Therefore, in this battle report, it was specifically mentioned that we want to popularize long guns in the army.

"Yes," Zong Yu finally had some brains.There was a charming smile on the corner of his mouth. "I have brought the sample today, would you like to see it, Your Majesty?"

"You..." Seeing Mu Junan's expression, the emperor knew that this little fox, Mu Junan, had already dug a hole and waited for him to jump. "Of course I have to see it, so hurry up and submit it."

"Yes." Handed the one-person-length box that had been in his arms to Eunuch Sun, and Eunuch Sun placed the box in front of the emperor.

The spear in the wooden box was not the one that Wei Zi gave Mu Shen at the beginning, but Wei Zi made another one later.The long dark brown pole, the blood-colored tassel, the cold-glowing gun head...all of these were made by Wei Zi according to the memories in his mind.

"Okay, okay." The emperor stroked the hard but not cold shaft of the spear, and the emperor said three words of 'good'. "Go! Let's go to the martial arts field!"

"Yes." Hearing what the emperor said, Mu Junan knew that his business was done.
