Su Liancheng said quietly: "Ms. Jiang's words are serious. It's because we didn't inform you in advance that you were put in danger."
"If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Jiang Huatong gave him a gentle blessing in return.
After Su Liancheng left, Jiang Huatong lightly covered her chest. She was finally able to calm down her frantic heartbeat.
Her heartbeat was so chaotic, partly because she was frightened, and partly because of the warmth Su Liancheng put on her when he was trying to save her.
In all her life, she has never been so close to a man.
If the situation hadn't been too dangerous just now, she might have given Su Liancheng a slap in the face.
Su Liancheng was here just now, and she tried her best to control her emotions.
Although she clearly knew that Su Liancheng was close to her just now to save her, but even so, she could not control her heartbeat.
Su Liancheng was a serious gentleman, and she would immediately run away as soon as she was safe, which seemed like her thoughts were too rude.
As a lady who abides by etiquette, she can't understand her truest feelings at this moment.
The retired maidservant also hurried over at this time to clean up the yard.
These maids were obviously well-trained and didn't ask any questions.
After a while, calming soup was delivered from the kitchen.
Jiang Huatong knew that the soothing soup must have been sent by Su Liancheng's order. She was still very confused at this time, so she simply drank it all in one breath while holding the bowl.
I don’t know if the calming soup was effective or if she calmed down on her own. After drinking the calming soup, her mood did become more stable.
Jiang Huatong thought about what had just happened again, and the emotions that she had just settled down began to surge again. She hurriedly put her emotions back and stopped thinking about it.
She wanted to talk to Tang Miaoxin at this time, but Tang Miaoxin ran out to play with Su Wenbai and Su Xiaotian and has not come back yet.
After taking a deep breath, she sighed heavily.
After Su Liancheng came out of Jiang Huatong's courtyard, he went directly to find Su Yan.
When he arrived, Hua Xinyu was also there, and their expressions were very solemn.
Su Yan saw him coming and asked, "What's the situation at the weapon shop now?"
Su Liancheng replied: "It's not very good. After refining it twice in a row, the weapons produced all have problems."
"I adjusted the fire, and it can barely reach the previous level, but it's not very stable yet."
"Based on this situation, if we can't find a solution, I'm afraid something big will happen."
Su Yan's eyes turned cold, and now there was no longer any gentleness in front of Tang Miaoxin.
At this time, the coldness in his eyes almost came out, and he cursed: "Ning Jing is so shameless!"
Hua Xinyu advised gently: "At this point, it's useless for you to be angry."
"Now that the news of your birthday has been released, all kinds of demons and monsters have entered the First City one after another."
"If it really can't be solved, the First City at least still has a batch of weapons that can defend Hulao Pass."
When Su Yan heard Hua Xinyu's words, not only did she not breathe a sigh of relief, but her eyes became even more worried.
Su Liancheng said from the side: "Mother is right, father doesn't need to worry too much. Even if Dayan and Qi join forces, we have Hulao Pass to defend."
"Not to mention that there is a Zhao country between them, so they may not be able to succeed."
Before Tang Miaoxin sent the news to the First City, Su Yan actually already knew about Dayan and Qi Guo joining forces to deal with the First City.
Because they have already shown signs of it.
Because the First City's terrain is extremely special, seclusion will only lead to its own downfall, so our ancestors have a family motto that all men in the clan must go out and gain experience.
In addition to the well-known fact that the direct men traveled to the six countries, there are also men from the side branches scattered in the six countries.
Therefore, although the First City is located in a steep terrain, it seems that it is difficult to know the information from the outside. In fact, their information is very well-informed, no slower than the other royal families of the Six Kingdoms.
This method of ancestors has advantages and disadvantages, because people's hearts are fickle.
Those who have spread out have lived outside for a long time, have friends of their own, and even started a family outside, and it is easy for them to develop selfish motives.
They may still have their hearts set on the first city, but when faced with huge temptations, it is difficult for them to keep their true intentions.
The First City is famous all over the world for its alchemy. In addition to the formula mastered by Zhizhi, there is also the "Philosopher's Stone" left by the ancestors.
The weapons produced in the first city must be tested with the philosopher's stone before they can become real weapons.
Weapons made from the Philosopher's Stone are strictly controlled by the First City and have basically not been leaked in recent years.
The weapons usually sold to the six countries are only refined according to the methods left by the ancestors, and the philosopher's stone is not used.
The Philosopher's Stone, regarded as a treasure by the First City, was stolen by a side branch a few months ago and has not been recovered so far.
I don’t know why, but once the philosopher’s stone was lost, the method passed down by our ancestors and forged for many years failed.
There have been incidents happening one after another at the weapons shop recently, and the forged weapons are no different from scrap metal.
Because of this incident, the direct descendants of the Su family, except for a few young ones who had not officially joined the company, were all plunged into deep anxiety.
No one knows what changes will happen next.
If the first city cannot produce sharp weapons in the future, how can it gain a foothold in the six countries and one city?
In the past few years, the Six Nations have only appeared to be stable, but in fact, there are undercurrents and murderous intentions.
It is impossible for Hulao Pass alone to stop the murderous intentions coming from all directions.
Not to mention the city defense formation left by our ancestors. Since the Philosopher's Stone disappeared, there have been several problems, making the formation difficult to operate.
Tungsten gold cannot be bought back, and Dayan and Qi are eyeing it.
Su Yan knew that the First City was probably about to face its biggest crisis since its establishment.
He said in a deep voice: "Today, Ning Guzhou said that he would send tungsten gold to the First City. I suspect that he already knows something, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence."
"And the timing of his appearance is too coincidental, so we have to guard against him!"
Although Su Liancheng didn't see Ning Guzhou, he heard about Ning Guzhou's arrival in the First City on the way here.
In the past few years, Su Liancheng had heard a lot about Ning Guzhou.
Of course, the most important thing was about Ning Guzhou and Tang Miaoxin. Because of the divorce letter, the First City was somewhat prejudiced against Ning Guzhou.
Su Liancheng is the calmest person in the First City. Although he is prejudiced against Ning Guzhou, he admires him more.
Over the years, as the Young City Master, he had helped Su Yan manage the First City. There were so many complicated things, and he was often overwhelmed and very nervous.
Ning Guzhou's situation when he arrived in Qinzhou was probably much more difficult than he was.
Qinzhou fell into Ning Guzhou's hands just a few years ago. Not only the state was rich and the people were strong, it at least had a very powerful army, which kept Qinzhou in good order.
Therefore, Su Liancheng's evaluation of Ning Guzhou was "heroic".
It is really worrying for such a character to come to the First City and put aside the inextricable relationship between him and Tang Miaoxin.
