Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 995

  Chapter 995 Do something that should be done

After leaving the palace, Li Xin went back to his mansion to rest for a while, and then, without knowing how many people were watching, he walked around Yonglefang again, and waited until he returned to the gate of Jing’an Hou’s mansion. , The sedan chair in the palace has been waiting for a long time, the **** Xiao Huai in purple, bowed and said: “Taifu, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time.”

  Li Xin nodded, squatted into the sedan chair, and said, “Let’s go.”

The sedan chair quickly entered Yonganmen, but it did not stop at the gate of Weiyang Palace, but at the school grounds in the palace. The emperor in blue clothes had been waiting at the school grounds for a while. When he saw Li Xin’s carriage coming, he He walked over in person, opened the curtain of the sedan chair, and said to Li Xin who was inside, “The teacher has finally arrived.”

  Li Xin stepped out of the sedan chair and bowed his hands to the emperor: “Your Majesty will be waiting for you for a long time.”

  The emperor narrowed his eyes, looked at Li Xin’s cuff, and said, “Did the teacher bring something?”

  Li Xin nodded, took out a clay pot about the size of an adult fist from his sleeve, and held it in his hand.

   That is, the cuffs of clothes in this era are wide, so a jar of this size is placed in the cuffs, so that you can’t see it at all.

  The emperor took the pot in his hand, looked at it carefully, and then looked at Li Xin.

   “Teacher, are you sure this thing will explode?”

  Li Xin nodded: “It will explode naturally.”

   He stretched out his hand and said, “Your Majesty doesn’t believe it, I can show it to Your Majesty by hand.”

   “That’s not necessary.”

   The emperor looked at the pot, rolled his eyes, and said to Xiao Huai who was beside him, “Go and get the dagger.”

Xiao Huai immediately found a small knife and handed it to the emperor with both hands. The emperor held the pot in one hand, and the other hand used a dagger to open the seal of the pot, and then saw the black inside the pot. powder.

   After doing this, the emperor raised his head and glanced at Li Xin, with a faint smugness in his eyes.

  Li Xin frowned first, then looked at his nose and heart.

The emperor asked the **** to fetch a small porcelain bottle, took out half of the medicine powder in the pot with a dagger, poured it into the pot, and then resealed the pot. One piece, looks rather sloppy.

   However, he looked excited and looked back at Li Xin with a smile that was not a smile.

   “Teacher, if this clay pot can explode, it doesn’t matter whether I want the rest of the thunder.”

   This is a blatant breach of the covenant.

The emperor wanted to get the real object of Tianlei, so that he could get a sample of gunpowder and give it to the Ministry of Industry for research. He has now taken out half of the gunpowder powder in this clay pot. If this clay pot can be fried, that is, It is said that these medicinal powders are real, and with the real things, it is not so important to want other Tianlei.

   After getting the “sample”, he can no longer let Li Xin out of Beijing, or even Ye Mao out of Beijing!

The Marquis of Jing’an’s face was calm, he put his hands in his sleeves, and said lightly, “I taught Your Majesty a long time ago that small tricks can’t make big things, and once the thunder is formed, it can’t be disassembled, otherwise it will be failure.”

   said, Li Xin pointed to the earthenware pot with only half of the powder left on the ground, hehe smiled: “Your Majesty might as well give it a try.”

The smile on Tianzi’s face suddenly disappeared. He personally took the torch from the **** beside him, walked to the center of the school grounds with the clay pot, lit the fire paper at the seal of the pottery pot, stepped aside, and then tightly Staring at the clay pot in the center of the school field.

  The fire paper quickly burned out, and the flames got into the pottery pot, but the pottery pot only made a muffled sound, and a white smoke came out, and there was no movement.

  The emperor’s face was ugly, he raised his head and glared at Li Xin, gnashing his teeth.

   “Teacher, you lied to me again!”

   “I didn’t lie to Your Majesty.”

  Jing’an Marquis said indifferently: “It’s His Majesty who wants to lie to me.”

   He walked up to the emperor, reached out and took the torch from the emperor’s hand, walked to the center of the school field by himself, then miraculously took out another clay pot from his sleeve, lit the kindling paper, and calmly retreated to the side.

   The flames were also burned out, and the results were very different.

  The clay pot made a loud noise and burst open!

  In the center of the school grounds, white smoke immediately spread, and the fragments of pottery shards were scattered and splashed everywhere.

Li Xin folded his hands in his sleeves, walked slowly to the emperor, and bowed slightly: “Your Majesty has seen that, I do have Tianlei on my body, and I didn’t deceive Your Majesty, but Your Majesty wants to play tricks, it’s broken. A rare trust between us.”

  Emperor’s face suddenly became cloudy.

   He is not sure right now, the first clay pot didn’t explode, was it because he broke the seal, or because the powder in the pot was originally fake!

  If it is fake, that means his actions were all predicted by Li Xin in advance, and he responded!

   If it is true, then he is the son of the emperor who is the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

   What’s worse is that he didn’t dare to bet on whether these powders were real or not, because he couldn’t afford to bet, Da Jin urgently needed to get Tianlei, and it was impossible to miss another three years!

  Thinking of this, Emperor Yuan Zhao snatched the porcelain bottle full of medicinal powder from Xiao Huai, who was beside him, and slammed it to the ground. The porcelain bottle fell to the ground and instantly shattered.

He first glanced at the white smoke that had not yet dissipated in the center of the school ground, and then turned back to Li Xin with a forced smile: “I am joking with the teacher, tomorrow I will order Ye Mao to leave the capital and return to Jizhou to lead the troops, and then Draw up an edict and let the teacher go north.”

  The Marquis of Jing An chuckled: “Your Majesty’s joke almost cost me my life.”

  If the emperor got the samples of Tianlei in advance, then Li Xin would at least end up in prison for life. If he didn’t get it right, he would be killed by the emperor.

  The young emperor smiled and said: “No matter what, I will not kill the teacher.”

   He waved at Xiao Huai, who was beside him, and said, “Xiao Huai, send the teacher back to the house on my behalf.”

  Li Xin didn’t say anything more, he bowed his hands to the emperor, then got back into the sedan chair and left the campus.

  The emperor looked at the direction Li Xin was going away, his eyes were full of resentment.

He looked down at the pile of broken ceramic pieces and the black medicine powder under his feet again, and said coldly to the **** beside him: “All these medicine powders are collected and sent to the Ministry of Works to hand over to those craftsmen, if they are still here tomorrow. If there is a little bit of black and gray, you will find a way to die for yourself.”

   said yes, the emperor snorted and walked away.

   The dozen or so craftsmen around him, their faces turning blue with fright, all knelt on the ground and began to collect those black powders.

At this time, the sedan chair carrying Li Xin was about to arrive at the gate of Yong’anmen. After walking out of Yong’anmen, Li Xin stopped the inner guard who was carrying the sedan chair, then got off the sedan chair and said, “You go back, the rest I’ll go back on my own.”

   These inner guards looked at each other, clasped their fists and saluted Li Xin, then carried the sedan chair and walked away.

   At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the moonlight sprinkled down, illuminating the bluestone road of Yonglefang, and the light blue city wall of Yonganmen behind him.

  Li Xin took a few steps with his hands behind his back, then turned around and saw the Yonganmen Gate that he was all too familiar with.

   For more than ten years, he has entered and exited this palace gate many times.

   “You are much worse than your father.”

  Under the moonlight, Mrs. Li shook his head and sighed softly, “Compared to Emperor Zhao, it’s even worse.”

   “Since the relationship is exhausted, then I have to do some things that I should do…”
