Yun Qing wanted their arrogance so that she and the young emperor could remain safe for a long time to come.

Diancui muttered, "I'm just so angry. If Master and Madam were here, they would definitely have slashed them with their swords."

There is much trouble in officialdom, especially among civil servants.

So when Li Yunqing insisted on taking the imperial examination to enter officialdom, both her father and mother disagreed. In the end, it was only after the late emperor's persuasion that they reluctantly agreed to let Li Yunqing stay in the capital.

Yun Qing thought about it slowly.

In the eyes of later generations, this was one of the signs that the late emperor had become suspicious of the Li clan, and she herself had once held this conspiracy theory.

But when Yun Qing put herself in that position, she suddenly realized that there seemed to be room for reversal.

If suspicion had been raised, the late emperor could have easily placed Li Yunqing in a less important position, such as Junior Tutor, who would still have the power to educate the young emperor, but instead, he chose Grand Tutor.

This is a real position, a first-rank official, and with the Li clan behind him, Li Yunqing's position is as secure as it gets.

In summary, it was clearly a pavement for Xie Rang; no matter what, there was always one side standing behind him.

However, the late emperor is dead, and Li Yunqing in history did not survive, so it is not very meaningful to delve deeper into these matters.

Yunqing instructed Diancui: "You can say these things to me, but you must never say them wrong in public. But since you reminded me, I should also send something to my parents."

The border environment is harsh, and to prevent unrest, Yun Qing needs to prepare in advance, not only to improve the abilities of the assassins, but also to enhance border defense capabilities.

Improving weapons and stockpiling food are both indispensable.

Diancui said shyly, "Young master, I'm not that stupid."

If she were truly foolish, she wouldn't have appeared by Yun Qing's side, because those who are even slightly close to her know that Yun Qing is a woman, and she has to keep her mouth shut to keep the secret.

Yun Qing smiled and said, "Okay."

Without delay, after returning to the Li residence, Yun Qing locked herself in her study and pondered deeply. She didn't even leave behind her most trusted maidservant, but began to list some things that might be needed on paper.

She knew a little about practical things like gunpowder, improved bows and arrows, and planting methods, but there were still many problems.

Take gunpowder for example. Although modern people know what it is made of, the specific amount is not so clear. In addition, the materials may be different due to the influence of the times. All of this requires trial and error, while also being careful to avoid being noticed.

In any case, it's definitely not feasible to conduct the experiment inside the mansion. What if we accidentally blow up the mansion? It would be hard for outsiders not to notice.

Yun Qing sighed deeply, "If only a chemist had transmigrated into this world, my job isn't in this field."

Yun Qing now regrets not being wary when she first saw Li Yunqing's name. If she had learned some things about time travel from the internet earlier, she wouldn't be in such a passive position now.

Perhaps because of her intense resentment, Heaven finally opened its eyes again. Just as Yun Qing had cheered up, she heard a beep in her mind.

“Host’s will detected…”

"Congratulations on binding yourself to the 'Prosperous Nation and Strong People' System. As a newbie, here's a small gift for you!"

Yun Qing's chin slipped and she almost hit the table. She was shocked: "W-what is that?"
