Da Qin: the Identity of My Eldest Son Has Been Discovered

It can be exchanged for a promotion to a higher title, and it can also reduce the workload of the corvees.

Letting a few people die less in the heavy corvee is also considered a good deed.

Qin Xuan reached into his bosom, took out a stack of transcribed recipes and detailed explanations with pictures and texts, and handed it up respectfully.

There are not only the formula of gunpowder, but also the blueprint of Liannu and the preparation method of potion.

Ying Zheng frowned, and immediately looked through it as if he had found a treasure.

The production method of the Liannu is just a brushstroke without a closer look.

These things are done by the best craftsmen in Daqin.

When he saw the gunpowder formula, he asked suspiciously: "What is saltpeter...? Where can I find it?"

Qin Xuan thought for a while, the corners of his lips curled up, and a hint of amusement flashed across his face.

He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, saltpeter is easy to find, and you should be able to find some in the palace."

Ying Zheng blinked, and said to himself in surprise, "It's in the palace? Why haven't I seen it before?"

Qin Xuan narrowed his eyes and explained seriously: "Actually, my master was inspired by alchemists when he developed gunpowder."

"What's the matter with the alchemist?"

Ying Zheng frowned, not understanding how this kind of heavy weapon for conquering cities and territories had something to do with alchemists.

Qin Xuan raised a finger and said with a smile: "Alchemists usually add some heavy metal ores, such as alum, mercury, and saltpeter, to make alchemy.

Anyway, they can add whatever they think is useful. As for the effect, I'm afraid they don't even know it.

Therefore, frying furnaces in alchemy is also a common thing! "

Ying Zheng frowned, and his face darkened the more he listened.

The emperor is already at the peak of his life.

What I want to pursue again is the illusory attainment of Taoism and immortality, and the attainment of immortality!

Therefore, there are quite a few alchemists raised by Ying Zheng.

Lu Sheng and Hou Sheng are the most famous, refining the immortal medicine for the emperor.

Qin Xuan has always suspected that the sudden death of Qiangu Yidi is inseparable from these alchemists.

Swallowing balls containing heavy metals in the stomach every day, no one can bear it!

Maybe you can't see it for a while, but it is only a matter of time before the sudden death accumulates over time.

Ying Zheng firmly believed in Fang Shi's refining of immortality elixir, otherwise, with his suspicious character, how could he swallow uncertain things into his stomach.

But now I heard that the gunpowder that can blow down the city wall is actually made from saltpeter extraction, so it's no wonder that the face is not black!

Looking at the clay pots that were blown to pieces on the ground, I couldn't help but look down at my stomach.

Inexplicably, I always feel like my stomach is about to explode.

Qin Xuan narrowed his eyes and exclaimed in feigned surprise: "Your Majesty, you won't really eat the elixir made from saltpeter, will you?"

Ying Zheng's eyes were narrowed, his face was already darkened, and he always felt that the kid's surprised and worried expression showed a hint of schadenfreude!

Pull out the picture and text with saltpeter, and ask Zhao Gao to keep it in his heart carefully.

Angrily ordered: "Take the guards to investigate immediately, if you really find saltpeter in the alchemy room, I will arrest all the alchemists!"

"Hey~!"

Zhao Gao shrank his neck and hurried back to the palace.

The emperor was furious, but he dared not delay!

Qin Xuan watched with cold eyes, gloating on his face.

But this time the schadenfreude was not aimed at the emperor, but at those deceptive alchemists.

The early death of the emperor through the ages has nothing to do with them.

Especially when Yingzheng's health was getting worse and worse, he had higher requirements for the progress of Lishan Imperial Mausoleum.

Otherwise, if he died one day, but the imperial mausoleum was not repaired, where would he lie?

In order to catch up with the construction period, the labor intensity naturally increased, and more corvee workers were beaten to death from exhaustion and disease.

If the emperor lived ten years longer, perhaps those who repaired the imperial mausoleum would have more chances of survival.

After all, it’s still doing good deeds!

Chapter 113 The turning point of the trajectory

Late night

Ying Zheng walked out of the gate of the Qin Mansion with a complicated look on his face.

Surprise and anger!

This trip was just to miss my son, so I brought my own ingredients to eat together.

Unexpectedly, he got a complete set of horse equipment and a continuous crossbow capable of killing targets four hundred paces away.
