519 Casting a long line to catch a big fish
The third prince looked at his uncle’s back and suddenly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
It turned out that his imperial uncle, who had always been calm and seemed to not care about anything, actually had another persona.
So this was his reaction of meeting a woman who he really liked?
Then he was indeed quite stupid in the past.
!!
Even though he was scolded by his imperial uncle, he was still curious about what his imperial uncle and Shi Qingluo were up to, so he followed them.
The group climbed up the city walls. Liang Yulin took a pair of binoculars and looked into the distance.
He then handed the telescope to Shi Qingluo. “This thing that you got the Ministry of Works to come up with is really good stuff.”
Shi Qingluo took the telescope and looked through it.
Although it was not as good as the modern telescope, she could still see the situation of the Ge camp’s tent in the distance roughly.
After she gave the formula for making glass, she gave some advice to the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works and explained to them how a telescope worked.
She didn’t expect that they would really be able to solve it so quickly.
As expected, the ancient people were all very intelligent.
As long as they were given a lever, they could also move the earth.
She looked at the Ge camp’s tent. The Ge people were coming out of the tent one by one, crazily surrounding the bonfire as if they were drunk, jumping and twisting together.
“It seems like the medicine has started to take effect,” she said.
This was a kind of powder her young husband concocted, which could make people extremely excited.
After eating it, one would feel that their entire body was full of energy, and they would soon fall into exhaustion.
After that, they wouldn’t have much strength in his arms and legs, let alone fighting with a weapon.
“Then let’s do it,” Liang Yulin chuckled.
He took out something that looked like a firecracker and lit it up.
Then, a red firework exploded in the sky.
The gate of the city wall opened, and a team of elite Daliang soldiers charged out on horseback with their swords in their hand.
The third prince then realized that the armored soldiers in the courtyard had not followed them. Instead, they had charged into the enemy’s camp.
“Princess, what’s this in your hand?” he asked curiously.
In his heart, he thought that his imperial uncle really valued someone of a lower rank over his nephew.
In order to pursue Xiao Hanzheng’s mother, he had coaxed Shi Qingluo.
He had such a good item, but he didn’t show it to his nephew, but to his future daughter-in-law.
Shi Qingluo handed him the telescope. “Take a look at it yourself.”
The third prince took it and placed it on his eyes just like the two of them.
Then, he saw the situation in the enemy’s camp.
The Ge people were drinking, laughing, and jumping around.
Some of them even started fighting with their teammates like crazy.
Was he crazy?
The third prince wasn’t a fool. He naturally thought of the paper bag that Qingluo had given to his imperial uncle during the day.
The sudden change of the Ge people must have something to do with that paper bag.
At the same time, he also remembered that Xiao Hanzheng was a disciple of the divine doctor.
Then, he saw their men rush into the Ge’s camp.
The Ge people wanted to resist, but they could not even hold their sabers as if they were sick.
It was the same for fighting.
When they pounced over, they would be trampled under their horses, or kicked over and bound by those who got off their horses.
These people had looks of disbelief on their faces because they had been captured so easily.
He put down his binoculars and asked Shi Qingluo with some excitement, “Your medicine is too powerful. If there’s a battle between two armies in the future, can you also use this tactic?”
Shi Qingluo shook her head. “This can only be used to deal with small groups of people. It’s not easy to make this powder, and there are limited ingredients.

“It’s not even enough for a battle between two armies.”
After such a long time, her little hubby had only made one bag, and she had given it all to Prince Yi.
The ingredients were indeed difficult to find, and she and her young husband did not want to be feared by the higher-ups of their enemy and Daliang.
Of course, she also had medicine packets with other effects.
Although the third prince was a little disappointed, he did not take it to heart.
Indeed, if there was such a powerful powder that could deal with the enemy, it would be too heaven-defying. Xiao Hanzheng would be even more terrifying.
“In the past, when we fought with the Ge people, our people would always suffer losses as they were all very fierce. Today is really cool.”
When their people rushed in, the Ge people encountered a huge blow.
It seemed that not only were there no deaths, but there were also no injuries.
He finally understood what his imperial uncle and Shi Qingluo had said before they fell, as well as the smirk in their eyes.
Very quickly, Shi Qingluo returned with the binoculars and handed them over to Mother Xiao and Xiao Baili.
It was the first time the two of them had used such an item.
While they were amazed, they also felt that it was an eye-opener to watch the battle in the distance.
At the same time, they were proud of their son/brother.
The people stationed outside the Ge Kingdom were all captured.
A few of them resisted and tried to attack with daggers, but they were killed on the spot.
Shi Qingluo yawned and said, “Your Highness, you can clean up the mess. We’re going back to rest.”
Then, she pulled his mother and Xiao Baili away.
Liang Yulin looked at her gently, then nodded. “Okay, it’s late. You guys should go back and rest.”
He wanted to send his wife and the others back, but he still had to deal with the rest of the mess.

He glanced at his stupid nephew beside him.
He still needed his uncle to worry about him. He was really useless.
The third prince was speechless.
He suddenly felt that he had been touched by his imperial uncle’s gaze.
The next day, when Shi Qingluo woke up, it was almost noon.
At this time, the news that Prince Yi had captured all the elites of the Ge Kingdom who had besieged the city had also spread throughout the town.
For a period of time, both the residents and the soldiers were excited and happy.
The civilians and soldiers living on the border were often attacked by the Ge Kingdom.
Especially when winter came, those from the Ge Kingdom would come to Daliang’s territory like mad wolves, burning, killing, and pillaging others.
Everyone hated the Ge people to the bone.
When they were surrounded, they were still in a state of panic, but now they were completely at ease.
The emperor’s younger brother and the lucky star, Princess Fubao were here.
Everyone had their protection, so they would definitely be safe.
The general of the Ge Kingdom was furious when he received the news.
He couldn’t understand how the elites he sent out were captured just like that.
Thus, he sent out several elite troops of a few thousand people to the small town again, wanting to surround and capture Shi Qingluo and Prince Yi.
At the same time, he had also sent people to set up an ambush on the only way to Heyang County, in case Prince Yi, Shi Qingluo, and the others left the town directly to Heyang County.
He even sent out a team of secret guards to investigate the reason why its elite group was captured.
Prince Yi’s informer had already found out about this, so he didn’t plan to take his people back to Heyang County.
After eating in the courtyard, Prince Yi and Shi Qingluo had nothing to do, so they began to play chess in the courtyard again.
Prince Yi put down a chess piece.
“I don’t think we’ll need to use the method we used last time. The people of Ge will be very cautious about their food and drink.”
Shi Qingluo laughed. “We can just wait here to cast a long line to catch the big fish.”
She then added meaningfully, “When the Ge people attack this place again, my husband should be here.”
