The Zhou family’s child took Yu Qing back to the room first.
Zhou Yunshen said, "Yuzhou City has a unique terrain. Everything produced by the Arsenal will be shipped through Yuzhou. Yuzhou also has sulfur mines and former iron shops. I suggest that we place the experiment in Yuzhou City. What do you think, Madam?"
Although Yu Hou is the master of Yuzhou City, he is dominated by his wife.
Madam Yu Hou has always had good vision, and as long as she nods, things in Yuzhou City will basically be accomplished.
She put down her chopsticks and adopted a formulaic expression. "New weapons not only require materials, but also a lot of craftsmen. They can't be mass-produced. The only thing that can be mass-produced is explosives, and there are probably many places that make explosives."
"The Marquis of Zhennan wants to place the test site in Yuzhou City. I'm afraid he wants to blow it up, right?"
Zhou Yunshen smiled. Although he was young, his eyes showed a shrewd look.
"It's not that I want to blow it up, it's just that the thing the goddess gave me wasn't right to begin with. Huahua has already calculated it, and it will definitely explode."
"The Emperor listened to the advice of the Imperial Master and me and chose a spot for the experiment first."
When Mrs. Yu heard this, she shut her mouth, but her eyes were ambiguous.
Zhou Yunshen knew what she was worried about.
The emperor is a rare enlightened, diligent and good emperor in history. He listens to everyone's opinions and does not act arbitrarily.
But he is the emperor after all.
Just like he could suppress the Fourth Prince, but would not take his own son's life for others.
Even if the Fourth Prince really rebels one day, all that awaits him is life imprisonment and the loss of his status.
He is the emperor. Throughout history, no emperor has ever refused a surprise attack.
If it was just a small explosion, it would not be able to shake the emperor's determination to create a surprise attack.
However, once the surprise attack is launched, the only result will be endless war.
He had fought in too many wars and was accustomed to seeing separations and deaths.
It would be fine if it was just about protecting one's own territory, but I'm afraid that one's ambition will expand and one will get carried away and think that he is capable of conquering the world with just a few explosives.
At that time, it was the soldiers who were unlucky.
Zhou Yunshen fiddled with a small potted plant and said quietly, "A thousand-year-old green tea spirit has to go through countless tribulations to ascend to heaven. Why should humans imagine that they can get great benefits without any effort?"
"Such a rare weapon should not appear in the world for the time being."
"A small explosion isn't enough to put the Emperor off his plans, but last year, disasters struck frequently, and we fought two wars with the barbarians. The treasury is empty. How can we afford this?"
Mrs. Yu Hou also knew that the court had been in turmoil in the past two years.
Apart from external threats, the biggest problem is still the princes.
The prince seems to have secured his position in the Eastern Palace, but as the concubines below him gain favor and the princes grow up, many things undergo subtle changes.
At this time, the secret force was created by the Fourth Prince's party. Who can guarantee that the Crown Prince can still sit firmly in the Eastern Palace?
Who can guarantee that this batch of magical weapons can really be firmly held in the hands of the emperor?
"Zhennan Hou is a man of deep thought and foresight. I can't wait any longer. What do you want me to do?"
"Small fights won't work. If you want to make a fuss, you have to make a big one."
"Big? If you want to pile up human lives, I can't cooperate."
"Does my wife think I'm such a bloodthirsty person? I've already said that there's something wrong with the ratio of the formula Lan Ruoyue gave me. It's bound to explode, it just depends on where. If it explodes in the sulfur mine..."
Madam Yu Hou subconsciously pressed her chest.
Sulfur ore is actually not valuable, because up to now, there is not much mining value, so usually only some medicine dealers purchase some, and some are used to make tinder.
But those are just a few bits, nothing compared to the entire mine.
Madam Yu asked tentatively, "Does the Marquis of Zhennan know what he's talking about? Behind the sulfur mine is a tunnel. That tunnel was built to supply supplies to the Yu family army. Once the mine is exploded, the tunnel will be destroyed."
"Madam's family is working closely with the Cao Gang. My eldest son recently met a girl named Ying'er, whose family is also in the transportation business. As long as it is handled properly, abandoning the corridor and taking the waterway won't delay supplies."
"I can also use my connections to help Madam, so that the Yu family army will not be in trouble."
Madam Yu Hou stared at Zhou Yunshen without saying a word.
She didn't understand: "Why did you meet with us? And why did you let us stay at the Marquis' Mansion? If something were to happen, His Majesty would easily guess that it was you who did it."
"Because Lord Yu loves his soldiers like his own sons, the Yu family will never make a fuss about the supply of soldiers. I'll leave this matter to Madam."
From a distance came the laughter of Jiang Shuyue and Yu Xuanyu, as well as the scream of a young tiger.
Madam Yu Hou sighed deeply. "Alright, since you can save Qing'er, I'll wade into this mess. But let me be frank: I know nothing. I'm only acting according to His Majesty's orders."
"I see."
"There's one more thing I want to correct, sister-in-law. Helping Qing'er is my duty. After all, our relationship is more than brothers."
"If sister-in-law must find a reason, it is that we cannot allow a treacherous person to sit on the throne of the goddess and deceive the world."
"Lan Ruoyue?"
Madam Yu Hou's eyes were not very kind: "It just so happens that I don't like that girl very much, so it's okay to give her a little trouble."
…
After waking up, Jiang Shuyue watched Huahua's performance.
Knowing that she had plucked Dahua's butt hair with her own hands yesterday, she felt ashamed and wanted to stick the remaining tiger hair on her hand back on.
Huahua urged her not to waste time. "There's a saying... spilled water can't be recovered! Don't expect to get the lost hair back. You should think about how to comfort Dahua's heart."
Jiang Shuyue felt even more ashamed.
She howled in anger: "It's understandable that I touched a handsome guy when I was drunk, but why is it a tiger's butt?"
Huahua: "Forget it, forget it. Our Dahua is the Hermès of tigers after all. She's of noble status and beautiful. You won't suffer any harm if you touch her a few times."
As soon as Huahua finished speaking, Tietou came over and stepped on Dahua's butt twice as if stepping on milk.
Although the plum blossom seal looks beautiful, it cannot restore her dignity.
Jiang Shuyue wanted to cry: "I've embarrassed myself so much! Huahua, why didn't you stop me?"
Huahua: "Oh my goodness, why didn't I stop you? I almost turned into a cloud and covered your head, letting you sink into the water and take a bath!"
Jiang Shuyue couldn't believe it. How could such a small amount of alcohol cause her to be embarrassed so many times? As a half-immortal, why was he so immune to alcohol?
Huahua felt her dripping and comforted her, "Don't be sad, I'll pop a melon for you to cheer you up."
"Last night, Lan Ruoyue drank too much. She took out all the clothes but still wasn't satisfied. She tore them up and accidentally caught fire. The fire happened to be under a tree with a wasp's nest on it. She also happened to have used passion fruit lotion that night, and her face became horrible. It was really pitiful."
