Xie Rang felt that the Grand Tutor's hands were warm and soft. At first, when this person put his hands on his head or shoulders, he would feel a little resistant, but now he didn't feel those feelings at all, and even felt a little greedy.

This must be because he can hear what she's thinking.

Xie Rang pursed his lips, thinking.

Yun Qing didn't pay much attention to the little tyrant's expression, but remembered that there was something she hadn't said yet.

"Your Majesty, I have some business to attend to tomorrow, so I may not be able to come to the palace to teach you. Would it be alright if you practice martial arts with me first?"

After realizing that the young tyrant was easy to talk to and seemed to have a good personality, Yun Qing became much more casual in her speech, but she still treated him with a very serious attitude and would explain everything in advance.

Upon hearing this, Xie Rang suddenly felt a little disappointed: "Alright."

Yun Qing wasn't thinking about anything at the moment, and Xie Rang didn't know what she was planning to do. However, he knew that Yun Qing was a person with strong principles. She would usually go along with him, but if she said no, then no was definitely no.

Xie Rang realized that he was still too weak and could only be trapped in the palace, unable to freely enter and leave.

He felt powerless to do anything about it, which frustrated him.

Yun Qing finally noticed that the little tyrant seemed a bit off, and she comforted him, "If this trip goes smoothly, I might be able to bring back something useful for Your Majesty."

[Little tyrant, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be so timid.]

But at least Yun Qing was willing, so the process was alright.

Xie Rang gave a reserved smile and said, "Then I hope the Grand Tutor will have a smooth journey."

Perhaps without realizing it, Xie Rang had already developed a certain dependence on Yun Qing, because from childhood to adulthood, even his own mother had never been so wholeheartedly good to him.

When she was young, she wanted to climb to a high position. She gave birth to Xie Rang in the hope of consolidating her position, but in the end, she never received a second glance from the late emperor. She died in the cold palace, and never paid any attention to Xie Rang.

Yun Qing teased, "Does Your Majesty not wish me good fortune if I don't say it?"

The little tyrant is a bit arrogant, but he can be easily controlled.

Xie Rang was indeed a little nervous: "No! Even if the Grand Tutor hadn't said anything, I would... I would have done it anyway!"

So you're still being very well-behaved, aren't you?

Yun Qing casually reached out and ruffled the little tyrant's hair, saying gently, "Your Majesty, please wait for me to bring you a gift."

The weather seemed even colder the next day. When Yun woke up and opened the window, the outside was completely covered in snow, and a chill swept over her.

She shivered, and the next second Diancui quickly grabbed a cloak and draped it over her shoulders.

"My lord, you've only been recovered for a short time, so please take care of yourself."

Diancui was truly terrified by her young master's pale and weak appearance lying on the bed earlier, and now she just can't stand seeing Yun Qing not taking care of his own body.

Moreover, she knew very well that her young master's body was not as strong as that of a real man, and if he overexerted himself, he could easily develop health problems.

Okay, I understand.

Yun Qing was tired of Diancui's nagging and also tired of being forced to drink the medicine, which had finally stopped. So she obediently wrapped her cloak tighter around herself.

Today was a secret departure from the mansion. Uncle Jiang had made preparations long ago, changing cars several times along the way to shake off the spies and arrive at the secret workshop on the outskirts of the city.

It appears to be an ordinary money exchange on the outside, but its real secret is hidden underground.

Most of the workers inside were household slaves trained by the Li family, and they were supervised by death servants to prevent the secrets from being leaked to the greatest extent possible.

"This thing is incredibly powerful. I've already tested it in the back mountains; splitting mountains is a piece of cake for it."

This place was far from the capital and nestled against the sparsely populated mountains and forests, making it the perfect location for the experiment. With the specific formula provided by Yun Qing, the workshop quickly produced the gunpowder.

Yun Qing nodded: "Take one, I want to take a look."

Yun Qing wanted to see just how good the system's products really were.

Deadpool lowered his head: "Yes."

After traversing the long tunnel, the group quickly arrived at the back mountain. Yun Qing and Uncle Jiang stood at suitable observation positions, where Deadpool detonated the explosives and threw them out.

In an instant, the mountain collapsed and snow splashed. Yun Qing heard a series of explosions in her ears, and birds in the mountains took flight in fright. It was a shocking and magnificent sight.

Her eyes lit up: "Great! It seems very powerful!"

She went down to the testing site and took a good look around. Judging from the surrounding environment, she could tell that the power of gunpowder was very good by today's standards, and that if it appeared on the battlefield, it might have a surprising effect.

Uncle Jiang was also seeing it for the first time and was shocked: "This...Young Master!"

"Send a death squad to your parents as soon as possible. This method must be explained orally and taught personally."

The methods of sending messages are too limited. Not to mention the possibility of them being intercepted on the way, even if you have the recipe, it is easy to make mistakes if you don't test it yourself. It could even kill someone if you're not careful.

Uncle Jiang said, "Young master, rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter properly."

Gunpowder is incredibly powerful, a deadly weapon on the battlefield. If someone's leg is blown off, it's hard to believe the enemy can get back up!

"There is still room for improvement in gunpowder. Let's see if we can reduce its size and make it portable."

Yun Qing had tried to access the system more than once in the past few days, but the system did not respond at all, which made her realize that she could only rely on herself.

Uncle Jiang praised, "This method is excellent."

Whether being chased or dealing with enemies, it will not attract their attention.
