Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress

Chapter 694: Chapter 691: Stirring Trouble_1

“Yes!” Zeng Shanru, unperturbed, lifted her gaze towards the interior of the screen, then continued, “In my limited knowledge, although this arrow mold is good, I noticed that, currently, only Yan employs such arrowheads. I suspect this Mr. Xiao might be connected with the Yan Kingdom. I request that the eldest lady be extra cautious when dealing with this Mr. Xiao.”

Zeng Shanru’s words made Bai Qingyan regard her in a new light. She didn’t expect Zeng Shanru to know that these arrowheads were from Yan.

“How did you know this?” Bai Qingyan covered the teacup lid and asked with a smile.

“Shanru is dull-witted and has shallow knowledge. When the eldest lady entrusted me with the important task of mining and refining weapons, I wanted to learn more, so I read some ancient books and miscellaneous collections on weapons. Coincidentally, I came across a record that mentioned the arrowheads used by Yan. At that time, Yan was still a powerful kingdom, producing high-quality ore to forge arrowheads of this shape. Later, when Yan attempted to conquer our Jin Kingdom and was driven to a corner due to internal strife, they lost the superior iron ore in their territory, and could no longer forge similarly refined weapons. These exquisite arrowheads require premium purple copper ore for support, so Yan also couldn’t make them after that. Yan’s once terror-inducing crossbow army vanished as a result.”
