He Yingzhe replied, "I remembered that my father and mother had mentioned before that the Western Jinyun Kingdom had once attempted to invade and destroy our Great Qin Kingdom."
"Although the war was settled later and the two countries restored their previous harmony, the reason why Tuoba Duan had such ambitions at that time was nothing more than that he felt that the military strength of our Great Qin was too weak."
"If the Great Qin wants the people of the country to continue to live and work in peace and contentment, and if it wants peace and tranquility on the border, it must have chess pieces of sufficient weight in its hands."
"And I think that the explosives and firecrackers used in mountain excavation are so powerful. If we study them carefully, develop their proportions carefully, and improve them, we will definitely be able to achieve the desired effect and make people from other countries in awe."
"That's right." The queen nodded repeatedly. "It's rare for you to have such ambitions at your age."
"If there is anything rare, it should be that the person who wrote the book had such insight and wrote such words, which are very beneficial to people."
He Yingzhe said, "It's just that the book is strange. The paper on it is clearly made of paper specially used by Sanjue Bookstore. Logically, it should be a book published by the bookstore, but I have never seen this book outside from beginning to end."
Books you can’t find outside?
The queen was slightly stunned.
The Sanjue Bookstore is run by He Yanxiu. Because the books sold there are novel and uncommon, the business is very prosperous and is sought after by many people.
When business was at its peak, it was even harder to find a book.
The Queen once bought several books from Sanjue Bookstore out of curiosity. One of them, which was about a love story that ended with a couple going through three lifetimes of hardships, left a deep impression on her.
There was also a book that described a very different world, which seemed to be a mecha world, which shocked her even more.
Even the emperor was obsessed with a book that told the stories of ordinary people going through various things on the road to becoming immortals. Whenever he mentioned many of the story lines in the book, he would applaud.
As for these books, the Queen once asked He Yanxiu and Su Yujin out of curiosity who wrote them. At first, the two of them smiled and said nothing. But after being asked many times, they said that these extremely novel books were all written by a man named Jin Baijin.
If that is the case, then this book should have been written by this man in the golden and white scarf.
If possible, I really want to meet who this man in the golden white scarf is and how he knows so many novel and interesting stories.
I also want to ask, what kind of environment did he grow up in to have so many wonderful ideas...
While they were talking and chatting, they arrived at Chongyang Palace and met Qin Yishu.
Qin Yishu was immediately interested in He Yingzhe's suggestion to go and see new firearms. "What kind of new firearms are they? Tell me about them first."
"It's not too new, it's just integrated with the trebuchet." He Yingzhe said, "Put the huge ignited firearm on the trebuchet, and let the trebuchet throw the firearm to the destination, it can produce great power."
"Although it's not new, I have adjusted the object of throwing firearms. It can't hit the target every time, but the accuracy rate is very high. Your Majesty can go and have a look."
"In addition, I am planning to develop a firearm that is more accurate and powerful than the stone sling. I will use a bamboo tube-like object to quickly push the firearm out. This way, it will explode when it hits the ground, thus avoiding the disadvantage of stone slings exploding in the air."
"That's a good idea." Qin Yishu's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Just concentrate on developing this kind of firearm. If you don't have enough manpower, I'll have someone transfer some people from the Ministry of War to help you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." He Yingzhe became even happier when he saw the recognition, and he also became more determined to continue researching firearms.
They talked about firearms for a while and decided on the exact date to invite the emperor to view it. Then He Yingzhe and the other three said goodbye and left.
I followed Minghai all the way out of the palace, and before they left separately, I saw Su Jingming just got off the carriage.
"Why are you here at this time?" The four of them hurried forward to greet them.
"Mother made some Dongpo pork today, thinking that grandpa and grandma like to eat it, so she specially asked me to go to the palace to deliver it." Su Jingming said, "Don't rush to ask me, just tell me, why didn't you ask me to go with you when you four went to the palace today?"
Facing Su Jingming's "questioning", the four people cried out in injustice, "It's not that we didn't call you today, we went to call you, but you were not at home at that time."
"That is to say." Qin Zeyuan said, "When we went there, my aunt said that you went to Anminhou Mansion to visit Mr. Su and Mrs. Su today, so we entered the palace first."
"But you came at the right time. We will go hunting in the western suburbs tomorrow. Do you want to come with us?" Lou Zhixin said.
"Tomorrow?" Su Jingming thought about it, then shook his head repeatedly, "I'm afraid it won't work. I promised Sister Yiyi that I would go to her clinic to help out tomorrow, so I have to go there tomorrow."
He Wanyi's medical skills have become more and more sophisticated now, and she can already see patients independently. She opened a clinic in the capital city, and provided free clinics on holidays, providing free medical services to the people of the capital city.
Su Jingming fully agreed with He Wanyi's move, and when he had free time, he would often go to the clinic to help.
Although it can't help much.
"Are you really going to help Yiyi's clinic?" He Yingzhe tilted his head, "Are you really not thinking about the various pastries and snacks that she always carries with her?"
He Wanyi has been greedy since she was a child. When you drink Chinese medicine, she will taste it as soon as she smells it.
Su Yujin knew her personality very well, and she almost always had egg biscuits, crispy red bean cakes, salt and pepper twists, and walnut cakes.
And all of them are made by Su Yujin, with excellent taste and deliciousness.
"No." Su Jingming blushed slightly, "I'm not a greedy person. If I really want to eat, I can just go to my aunt's house and ask for some. Why do I have to follow Sister Yiyi?"
"Besides, my aunt just gave me a lot of snacks today, enough to last me for a long time!"
"Well..." He Yingzhe touched his nose and turned to tell the servant beside him, "Send someone back to tell mother that I want to go to Zhixin's house tonight, so that mother doesn't have to prepare my portion of cross-bridge rice noodles."
Yunnan Bridge Noodles?
Su Jingming's eyes suddenly lit up, "Brother Zhe is talking about the cross-bridge rice noodles, but the last time I went to your house, my aunt made it by hand, and it needs to be simmered before eating?"
"That's right." He Yingzhe nodded.
It is! I want to eat!
Su Jingming swallowed subconsciously, and was thinking about how to find a better reason to go to He Yingzhe's house with a legitimate reason.
Have a free meal!
