After the meal, Zhao Xu couldn't wait to try the power of the gunpowder made by Tang Ning, but Tang Ning repeatedly advised, saying that this gunpowder is different from the gunpowder used by our Great Song Dynasty now, although it is not the final version, but the lethality of this gunpowder 2.0 is several times that of gunpowder used today.

Zhao Xu thought about it and was skeptical. So he chose a location outside of Tokyo, a royal field, where Downing could demonstrate the power of gunpowder.

When he went out, he ran into a patrol, and suddenly bumped into the emperor's patrol soldiers dancing excitedly, and after asking the reason, Zhao Xu praised their civilized law enforcement behavior, and said that there would be rewards awarded to these soldiers who lead by example.

As for Downing's blatant speeding, that's it.

Then the group went straight out of the city, and Zhou Huai, Zhou Cheng, father and son also followed on horseback.

When I arrived at the place where Zhao Xu said, there was no one near the left. Although a few houses can be seen in the distance, Zhao Xu has already sent someone to inform the common people, and if you hear any terrifying movements for a while, don't panic, this is the emperor testing the new weapon of the empire.

The common people were not panicked at all, on the contrary, they felt that it was really exciting to have a lively view. They all ran out to the edge of the field to watch the excitement, and some who were eating were squatting on the edge of the field with bowls.

Then it was time for Downing's performance, where he stuffed a few strings into a bamboo tube, then stuck the bamboo tube in the middle of the field, then lit the end of the rope with a fire breaker, turned around and ran.

The rope was long, giving him plenty of time to escape. When he ran to the safe position where Zhao Xu was, he suddenly heard a loud bang, and the entire field was exploded and exploded.

Large expanses of dirt were tossed into the sky and fell down with a clatter.

The people were so frightened that they couldn't even reach their bodies, and the man who was eating noodles with a bowl didn't even realize that the bowl was in the soil.

Zhao Xu was splashed with dirt, but he didn't care. Excitedly grabbed Tang Ning and said, "This ...... What is it! ”

Tang Ning felt that Zhao Xu's palm holding his wrist was trembling, and he thought that Zhao Xu's heart at this time must be extremely excited.

The gunpowder used by the Song people today and the gunpowder of later generations are fundamentally two different concepts. One is to injure the enemy with the smoke emitted after burning, and the other is to kill the enemy with the explosion and the shrapnel that breaks up during the explosion.

One is the technology that people can master, and the other is the power that only gods can possess in the eyes of the Song people.

Tang Ning pressed the back of Zhao Xu's hand with one hand to help him stabilize, and replied softly: "Official, this is the true power of gunpowder." But this is not the final appearance of gunpowder, because of the urgency of time, for a while, Wei Chen can't remember the mantra taught by his master.

Therefore, in a state of rush, only such products were made. After you return to the palace in a while, after Weichen goes home, he will write the recipe with a pen and paper and send someone to the palace.

If you don't believe me, look no further

As a supervisor, according to Wechen's formula, you will know it after a try. ”

Unlike Zhao Xu, Zhou Huai was not only surprised after seeing the explosion just now, but also a trace of worry. But hearing what Tang Ning had just said, Zhou Huai's heart relaxed.

This kid is still quite knowledgeable about current affairs, and knows that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty.

No one in the government or the opposition will allow this kind of thing to appear in the hands of individuals. Including myself, after seeing the power of the gunpowder explosion just now, I also feel that this thing is the most correct only in the hands of the government.

If Tang Ning is unwilling to hand over the gunpowder formula, it is simple, go to the prison for a lifetime, and under the supervision of the imperial court, make gunpowder for the Great Song Dynasty for a lifetime.

But if this is the case, Tang Ning will not do anything big in his life. And this must be something that Zhao Xu and Zhou Huai don't want to see, but if Tang Ning cherishes himself and is unwilling to hand over this gunpowder formula, then it can only be so.

And what Tang Ning just said is very familiar with current affairs. He knew the truth of this, so he was very clever to offer the formula of gunpowder.

In this way, the government can also make gunpowder with the same power, and the efficiency of the operation of the state apparatus is far higher than that of Tang Ning alone. By the time Downing made a piece of gunpowder, the government might have already assembled all the gunpowder needed for the entire Western Army.

In this way, there will naturally be no worries about what Tang Ning will do.

Zhao Xu was very happy, he felt that this was more news that could make him happy than Meng's pregnancy. Holding Tang Ning's hand tightly, Zhao Xu said seriously: "Tang Qing, you can always surprise me."

You are capable and selfless. I can see that everything you do is working hard for the people of the world and for the sake of the Holy Pilgrimage.

Tang Qing, if you deliver the formula of gunpowder to me, I can promise you in front of everyone present, if you don't live up to me, I will live up to Qing. ”

Tang Ningxin said how to hear this awkwardly, meaning that he understood, Zhao Xu said that as long as he handed over the gunpowder formula to him, if he did not overthrow the imperial court and make some principled mistakes in the future, he could leave sideways in the Great Song Dynasty.

Having said that, the heart of the emperor is not so easy to figure out. Although Zhao Xu has repeatedly shown a good side to himself, the dragon's personality is uncertain.

In that case, just listen to it. If you take it seriously, you will be ridiculed.

However, Zhao Xu can say such things, which means that Tang Ning's status in his heart is already very high, and he may not be as high as the prime ministers.

Hurriedly bowed and saluted, Tang Ning said: "Wechen doesn't dare to be, Wechen just did what he could." Besides, Weichen is greedy for money and lustful, and the official family still should not place high hopes on Weichen, lest the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. ”

Zhou Huai's nose was crooked, and he could say this in front of the emperor? Zhou Cheng looked at Tang Ning with interest

back, thinking in my heart, this kid is really talking about people, and talking nonsense when he sees ghosts.

Only then did I know that Zhao Xu likes to be real and not pretentious, and he knew that he liked what he liked, and this sentence was another plus point on Zhao Xu's side.

Sure enough, after Zhao Xu heard it, he laughed. pointed at Tang Ning and said, "Tang Qing, you really don't shy away from your shortcomings."

But you don't count these things, what kind of person you are, I have a certain number in my heart.

Haha, come, I see you still have the remaining gunpowder in your hand, so I'll use it all for him, so that I can test if it will be so lethal no matter what, as long as you follow this recipe. ”

Tang Ning received the order and came to the field again.

Although the onlookers were distressed, this was Huangtian and had nothing to do with them. So watching Tang Ning light the seal letter again and again and run back, watching the bamboo tube buried in the ground explode again and again, everyone was frightened from the beginning to dumbfounded.

When Tang Ning lit the last bamboo tube, the moment a loud bang broke out, everyone applauded.

Zhao Xu watched the explosion heartily, took a step and laughed three times, and happily returned to the palace.

He was not in good health, especially at night, and had a terrible cough. But because I was so happy, I didn't cough a few times that night. Soon after returning to the palace, someone sent the gunpowder formula into the palace.

Zhao Xu took it, and found the head of the prison, and the monarch and the minister worked all night, and finally caused an explosion of the same scale. Knowing that Tang Ning did not deceive himself, Zhao Xu was overjoyed.

At night, when they were entangled with Liu Qingjing and the others, they both turned to the offensive and launched a stormy attack on Liu Qingjing.

Liu Qingjing, who became a puddle of mud afterwards, slowed down for a long time before he recovered, and Zhao Xu was almost paralyzed with his mouth open and closed his eyes and his tongue out.

Liu Qingjing thought that her charm was too strong, so that the emperor's husband couldn't hold it. She was extremely proud, but she just asked cheaply, as if she had been splashed with cold water on her head.

"Haha, I'm happy today. Downing, do you know? Oh, you don't know. Anyway, I'm a very capable minister, and today I have made an improved version of gunpowder.

It's such a big bamboo tube, and when it exploded, it overturned the entire piece of land into the sky. And he didn't hesitate to give me the recipe, an hour ago, I just tried it with the general, and he didn't hide it, which made me not happy. Zhao Xu said, and fell asleep tiredly.

Before going to bed, he muttered: "Tang Qing...... Tang Qing...... You're such a nice guy......"

Liu Qingjing didn't remember anything else, but remembered the name Tang Ning. This seventeen-year-old little girl didn't even pay attention to the pregnant Queen Meng, but because of tonight's incident, she inexplicably had a bad feeling for Tang Ning, or rather, she even ate Tang Ning's vinegar......
