The Imperial Palace.
The Imperial Study.
Jiang Tian reclined on the sofa.
Empress Qian Renxue lay in front of him.
[Ding! Princess Sakuya of Japan's rage value increased by 2135]
[Ding! Prince Ono's rage level from Japan has increased by 1682.]
[Ding, your rage points from Shenwu have increased by 2145]
[Ding, from...]
Another system notification sound rang out.
It seems that killing Kujiu Intelligence has greatly angered these Japanese samurai.
This is exactly the effect Jiang Tian wanted.
These Japanese samurai contributed tens of thousands of rage points to him.
"Jiang Tian, I heard that some Japanese kidnapped Lord Song outside the city today," Empress Qian Renxue breathed softly in Jiang Tian's arms.
“They’re all a bunch of rabble. Oh, right,” Jiang Tian slowly sat up, “I have to go to the World Society. I wonder how Ji Yanran from the World Society is doing with the things I arranged for her.”
Qian Renxue looked outside.
It was completely dark, and there was not only no moon in the sky, but even the stars were few and far between.
The sound of a night watchman's gong came from afar.
"It's already past midnight. Let's talk about going to the World Society tomorrow." Qian Renxue nestled in Jiang Tian's arms, her two jade arms hanging around his neck like two silver snakes. "Tonight, I want to spend some quality time with you."
“I was planning to go find the people from the World Society a few days ago, but I’ve been delayed for the past few days.” Jiang Tian looked at the breathtakingly beautiful Empress Qian Renxue. “Alright, I’ll go to the World Society tomorrow.”
As soon as Jiang Tian finished speaking, the two of them lay down on the sofa.
The palace maids and eunuchs slowly withdrew.
The two faced each other, and the young Empress Qian Renxue stared intently at Jiang Tian with her expressive eyes.
She had a pair of big, bright eyes that seemed to have a thousand things to say to Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian also looked at Empress Qian Renxue.
It is said that you can't hide the look in someone's eyes when you love them.
The deep affection between the two of them was evident in their eyes.
The two couldn't help themselves and, inseparable, embraced each other tightly.
Just then, something lit up in the direction of the military factory.
The light was blinding, and for a moment it was as white as night.
Immediately afterwards, a loud bang was heard.
The entire earth was shaking.
Tiles on the roof of the palace started falling off with a thud.
Jiang Tian felt a sharp pain in his eardrums from the vibration.
The little girl, Qian Renxue, screamed and huddled tightly in Jiang Tian's arms.
Huge explosions followed one after another.
The explosion sounded like popping beans.
Thousand Snowflakes trembled all over. The little girl, like a gentle little rabbit, nestled in Jiang Tian's arms, not daring to move at all.
Jiang Tian sat up abruptly: "Oh no, something's happened at the military factory."
Jiang Tian shoved Qian Renxue aside and rushed out of the study.
When he walked into the courtyard, many eunuchs and palace maids looked towards the direction of the military factory.
A raging fire broke out at the military factory, with flames shooting dozens of meters into the air.
The raging flames illuminated the entire sky.
Amidst the raging flames, bursts of dazzling light occasionally emanated.
Accompanying the bursts of dazzling light were a series of deafening explosions.
Jiang Tian knew it must have been the gunpowder in the armory that exploded.
These gunpowders are as powerful as TNT.
The power of gunpowder explosions is extraordinary.
At that very moment.
The shockwave generated by the explosion spread rapidly in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The first shockwave has already reached the palace.
With a whoosh.
Even through the palace walls, many eunuchs and palace maids were still impacted by the shockwave and fell to the ground.
It was like a magnitude 6 or 7 earthquake.
The roof tiles were shattered by the first shockwave.
Empress Qian Renxue rushed out of the house.
The little girl hadn't run more than a few steps when the second shockwave hit.
The little girl lost her balance and was sent flying backward by the second shockwave.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Tian quickly stepped forward, but he too lost his balance.
The two people fell down together.
The shockwaves came one after another, like waves on water.
It lasted for a full seven or eight minutes.
The sound of the explosion stopped.
Qian Renxue's face turned deathly pale; this young girl had never encountered anything so terrifying before.
"Jiang Lang, what exactly is going on?" Qian Renxue's teeth were chattering as she spoke.
"The military factory has been blown up," Jiang Tian waved to the eunuch beside him. "To protect His Majesty's safety, I have to go to the military factory."
"Yes..." A dozen eunuchs and palace maids rushed over and surrounded Empress Qian Renxue tightly.
"Your Majesty, it's dangerous outside. You should go back to your room immediately."
Qian Renxue looked at Jiang Tian's retreating figure and said loudly, "Can we not go?"
"No." Jiang Tian continued to charge forward, only raising his right hand to wave at Empress Qian Renxue.
"It's too dangerous there."
"It would be really dangerous if I didn't go."
Jiang Tian couldn't understand how a heavily guarded military factory could suddenly explode.
When he rushed to the palace gate, he saw that the outside was in complete disarray.
Everywhere you look, there are dogs barking and horses neighing.
The cries and shouts of the people were deafening.
Jiang Tian mounted his horse.
He galloped away on his horse towards the military factory.
The Imperial Guards quickly assembled towards the military factory.
