    Chapter 461:

    ¡­¡­

    "Your Majesty is here!" A sharp eunuch's voice sounded outside.

    When Li Chengqian heard the voice of the male duck, he knew it was the old eunuch next to Lao Li shouting.

    The Qianniu Guards on both sides of the courtyard gate lined up, and Lao Li's honor guard walked in. Then he saw Lao Li wearing a gorgeous yellow dragon robe and a pearl crown on his head. The top of the crown was like a  It looks like a bridge, with more than a dozen strings of pearls hanging in front of the forehead. It sways as it walks, making it very swaying!  

    Damn it, couldn¡¯t it be because Old Li made it so grand when the powder keg in the Cheng Mansion exploded?

    Li Chengqian knew that wearing this outfit would be particularly troublesome. No matter how coquettish Old Li was, he wouldn't be able to wear this outfit without any problems, right?

    Behind the windy old Li are Li Jing, Yuchi Gong, Li Xiaogong, and Fang Xuanling, all wearing very formal official uniforms. Looking at the situation, it seems that the court party has been moved here.

    Li Chengqian and Cheng Laoguo walked quickly to the front and saluted Lao Li.

    Lao Li hurriedly came over to help Cheng Laohuo up. Li Chengqian stood aside first. He helped Cheng Laohuo up, his eyes were affectionate and sincere, and he asked in a trembling voice: "I just received the Tibetan envoys. Suddenly I heard a thunderous thunder. Looking for Qianniu."  When Wei asked, he realized that there was thunder in Cheng's house, so he left the Tibetan envoy in the palace and came to visit Cheng Aiqing. I wonder if Cheng Aiqing and his family are okay? "

    Mr. Cheng was so grateful that he had tears and nose running down his face. He wiped his left sleeve and his right sleeve, and replied in a choked voice: "Your Majesty, I I I am so grateful that I fell to the ground. At this moment, I" He said excitedly  Speechless.

    Lao Li quickly supported him.  He patted his back and said: "Don't be excited. Don't be excited"

    "Yes, yes My family is all well! I feel guilty!" Mr. Cheng wiped away his tears.  He raised his head and said guiltily, "I didn't inform His Majesty of the matter before, which made His Majesty worried!"

    Old Li asked casually: "Cheng Aiqing, can you tell me how the thunder came out just now?"

    "Your Majesty, this is what happened. Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the humble residence. His Highness mentioned that the sound was like thunder. It is so powerful that it can crack rocks. I was inspired by it, and after in-depth research with His Highness, I finally came up with something called"  When he said this, he glanced at Li Chengqian.

    Li Chengqian added: "Gunpowder."

    "Yes, gunpowder. After I got it out, I came to the backyard to try it. The dragon guard asked me to hide in the hall, and he lit a fire outside. Unexpectedly, there was a bang, and the ground moved.  It's all collapsed. Come out and take a look. This situation has already occurred. Your Majesty and everyone, please come with me!" Mr. Cheng led Lao Li and Li Jing to the powder barrel pit and pointed to the powder barrel pit for them to see.

    There are also the broken rocks and broken trees.  Broken roofs, cracked walls.  The shaken pillar.

    When Lao Li and Li Jing saw this scene, they were so surprised that their mouths opened wide.  They really couldn't believe that such a scene was caused by man!

    Li Jing is the God of War and Killing. Seeing this scene, he sighed: "The stones are broken, what if it's a human being? What if it's a city?"

    Li Xiaogong answered: "If a man destroys a city and collapses, he will be invincible and will be invincible!"

    Fang Xuanling said seriously: "It must not be spread to outsiders!"

    Old Li frowned and ordered: "No one is allowed to get close to the Cheng Mansion, let alone the backyard."

    Su Dingfang¡¯s face became solemn and she responded loudly: ¡°Here.¡±

    After following the order, the soldiers in the backyard no longer gathered in a group and gathered around Lao Li. They all dispersed into the yard, keeping some distance away from Lao Li and the others.

    Mother Cheng and Cheng Wenxiao knew that such a scene was not suitable for them, so they followed Qian Niuwei and retreated to the side.

    Now the only ones left in the middle are Li Chengqian and other core figures of the Tang Dynasty.

    "Where is this thing? It has such power. Take it out and show it to me!" Lao Li said excitedly.

    ¡°Of course he would be happy to have such a big killing weapon.

    Li Chengqian took out a small cannon from his arms and said, "Father, this is it."

    Under the curious gazes of Lao Li and others, Li Chengqian stretched out his hand, put one on his hand, and said, "Father, let me try one for you."

    Lao Li's eyes widened and he tried one. The big pit under his feet and the broken stones were the destructive power created by this gadget. Li Chengqian actually said he wanted to try this. He didn't take his own life seriously.  Come on, don't take the five or six core elements of the Tang Dynasty here seriously. If this place explodes, the Tibetan people in the palace will laugh.

    Lao Li wanted to stop him.

    But Li Chengqian has alreadyIt was lit on fire, and there was a bang, which almost scared Lao Li and the others to the point of peeing.

    Li Chengqian just felt a painful impact on his hand, and then it disappeared.

    It seems that there is no problem with firing cannons from your hands.

    When Lao Li saw that there was not much movement, he calmed down, and then he became suspicious of Li Chengqian.

    "Is this really the thing that caused the thunder just now?" Lao Li asked.

    Li Chengqian told Lao Li and others the difference between gunpowder barrels and cannons.

    Then Lao Li and several ministers divided the firecrackers in Li Chengqian's hands, looked left and right, and then followed Li Chengqian's example, put the firecrackers in his hands, lit them and let the firecrackers explode in his hands.

    A continuous sound of firecrackers rang out in the Cheng mansion.

    A few old men were addicted to playing. After finishing shooting the cannons in their hands, they reached out to Li Chengqian for some.

    Li Chengqian shrugged his shoulders and said, "No more."

    They then took back their hands with some annoyance.

    After experimenting with the appearance of firecrackers, they also had some intuitive understanding of gunpowder, as well as an objective understanding of the pit on the ground.

    They gathered together, discussed the use of gunpowder, and quickly reached an agreement.

    Old Li turned around and said to Mr. Cheng: "Only a minister like Cheng Aiqing who is devoted to the country can come up with such a murderous weapon. Well, I will draw up the reward after I return to the palace and then officially issue the decree. Now.  With the invention of gunpowder, we can study how to apply this gunpowder to the battlefield. Therefore, I have now decided to establish a gunpowder bureau. Since Cheng Aiqing is one of the inventors of this gunpowder, then I will leave this gunpowder bureau to you.  Come and manage, I believe you will use the gunpowder better on the enemy!"

    "Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness!" Mr. Cheng straightened his body, bowed his hands, and saluted Mr. Li.

    Old Li looked at Fang Xuanling, and then added: "The construction of this gunpowder station, where to choose and how to send troops to guard it, will be discussed by Li Aiqing, the prince of Hejian County and Cheng Aiqing. Remember, the gunpowder must not be left exposed.  !¡±

    The addition of Li Jing and Li Xiaogong is equivalent to the addition of two more supervisors. However, when Old Man Cheng heard this, he became happy and quickly followed Er Li to take orders from Old Li.
