In order to give the child a legitimate identity when he was born, Liu Yunde became the husband of Princess Hongxia and the consort in the fourth month after arriving in Qi Kingdom.

So Liu Yunde moved directly from the ordinary courtyard to the princess mansion where Princess Hongxia was away.

There are five entire courtyards, and the furnishings inside are even more magnificent.

Liu Yunde didn't have any psychological pressure at all about living in the princess mansion.

If he cared about this, how could he have been living on a soft diet for so many years?
Besides, what happened to the soft rice?
Soft rice is easy on the teeth and good for the stomach!
Liu Yunde has never suffered in this life just because he eats soft food.

Now he only needs to coax Princess Hongxia well, and he can do other things as he pleases.

Now that he goes out, Liu Yunde's identity is different.

Even though some people look down on Liu Yunde, they don't dare to provoke Liu Yunde in person.

After all, Master Liu Yunde has to look at the owner when beating a dog, and he always has to give Princess Hongxia some face.

However, when Liu Yunde goes out recently, he can always feel the hostile eyes of the Qi people.

Not only Liu Yunde felt this way, but all the Han people in Qi State felt the same way.

After Liu Yunde inquired with Urgan, he learned that Qi State was secretly spreading smallpox in Dayan State and was found out.

Now Dayan's side is beginning to retaliate.

Huo Yingjie led several teams of rangers and wreaked havoc on the grasslands. They were invincible and caused great losses to many tribes.

Every time I wanted to chase him, I was blocked by the thunder.

The horse was so frightened that it ran wildly and had no strength to fight back.

Now Qi State simply does not have the ability to organize a large-scale force to invade Da Yan again, and they have not yet figured out what the loud thing is, and they dare not act rashly.

As a result, everyone in the Qi Kingdom was in a state of embarrassment, and their hatred for Dayan grew day by day.

They could not deal with the Han people in the Dayan Kingdom, but the Han slaves who were captives in the Qi Kingdom suffered.

Liu Yunde had never seen the power of gunpowder explosions, but from other people's descriptions, he heard that the sound was very loud and very lethal.

Liu Yunde was not sure whether it was lethal, but something that made a loud sound after an explosion was a firecracker!
After leaving the matter to the people below, Liu Yunde went to find Urgan.

It happened that Prince Sarman was also there.

"Your Majesty, Master Urgan, I learned from others that Huo Yingjie has something in his hand that makes a loud noise after exploding. It's very powerful."

"I've never seen it before. Do you know what it is?"

Both Sarman and Urgan were attacked before, but they were lucky and were not injured.

Many of them died on the spot, and even if they survived, they would bleed to death because the treatment was not timely, or the blood vessels were cut during treatment.

"I learned from the soldiers that it was an iron lump with a lead on it. It exploded after being lit. There were many triangular nails inside the iron lump. With the impact of the explosion, they shot out in all directions and penetrated into the human body. inside."

Urgan looked horrified when he described it.

Sa Riman didn’t want to recall the tragedy of that night, it was simply a lifelong nightmare.

Liu Yunde thought for a while, "Your Majesty, sir, I don't know why it is so powerful, but I know that the firecrackers used during the Chinese New Year are similar to this."

"Put the gunpowder into the bamboo joints and seal it. There is a fuse on the outside. After it is ignited, when the fuse burns into the inside, it will explode with a bang."

Sa Riman was stunned, thought for a moment, and then shook his head, "Firecrackers, I've seen them before. They can indeed make a sound, but they are much smaller than that iron lump."

"If it were a firecracker, you might be injured by the firecracker, but it won't kill anyone. But that black lump can not only kill people, but also fry them."

Urgan was convinced.Liu Yunde thought for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, what you said makes sense. But if we think about it carefully, apart from the difference in power, the principles of the two are the same."

"What if we could improve the inside, increase the power of the explosion, cover it with iron bumps on the outside, and add some triangular nails on the inside, wouldn't that be enough?"

Sa Riman and Urgan were both smart people. Under the guidance of Liu Yunde, after thinking carefully, they found that Liu Yunde was right.

Their principles are the same.

But how to improve the gunpowder inside?

Qi State does not have the habit of setting off firecrackers during the New Year, and there is no gunpowder.

"Your Majesty, we have to take a long-term approach. If it weren't for that iron lump, we would never be able to fight too hard."

Sa Riman touched his beard and nodded, "Yunde, what you said makes sense. But how can we improve it?"

Liu Yunde pondered for a moment, "Your Majesty, we need a few craftsmen who can make gunpowder. We don't have any, so we'll hire them from Dayan. If they don't come, we'll tie a few over."

Urgan narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, "Your Majesty, what the consort said makes sense. We are all scared when we think of that thing, let alone ordinary soldiers."

"As long as we crack it, the other party has it, and we have it too, then we can defeat the other party."

Liu Yunde was ambitious and had been bullied and ridiculed. He wanted to take revenge and go back.

One day, he will conquer Xiguan, march eastward, and return home with a full load.

"Your Majesty, if we control the manufacturing process of that iron lump, the benefits will far exceed your imagination."

"Oh?" Sa Riman was confused and looked over, "Yunde, do you have a good opinion? Just say so!"

Liu Yunde smiled smugly and sinisterly, "We in Qi are good at firing volleys. If we are prepared, that iron bump may not be able to hurt us."

"But Da Yan is different. They are cities. Horses can run, but cities cannot. If we blow up the city, we can directly attack the city."

Hearing this, Sa Riman's eyes lit up, "It makes sense, Yunde, you are right!"

"I will report this matter to Brother Wang. I will also mention you when the time comes, Yun De. If you have any good ideas in the future, just say so."

From these strategies, Sha Riman has completely accepted Liu Yunde.

Liu Yunde probably hated Dayan even more than the Qi people.

Sa Riman hurriedly entered the palace and told King Qi about Liu Yunde's thoughts.

The King of Qi State is a man of great talent and strategy, so of course he also hopes to possess such powerful things.

Once you have it, you no longer need to be chased and beaten by Da Yan and Huo Yingjie, but they will fight around Zhenxiguan.

"Very good, that's a good idea. You've been back for so long, why did you just think of it?"

"It's much easier to tie up a few craftsmen who can make fireworks than to spread smallpox, and it can also alert others."

Sa Riman thought to himself, "Brother Wang, I didn't think of this. It was Wang Mei's husband, the consort Liu Yunde who thought of it."

Upon hearing this, King Qi's eyes lit up, "How about this Liu Yunde?"

Sa Riman thought for a while and said, "In Dayan, he is indeed not a big figure. He follows the influence of others and relies on women to make his fortune."

"But because he did things for me, he was found guilty of treason. He was originally going to be executed, but I spent 1 taels to redeem him."

"He learned the spinning wheel and loom from Dayan, and has already earned tens of thousands of taels of silver. Now we have found the key to turning defeat into victory, which is quite useful to our Qi country." (End of Chapter)
