What secrets were Father and Yaoyao hiding from them?! The two brothers looked at their father in confusion.

Emperor Qixuan pretended not to see it and shifted his gaze to Yaoyao.

Don’t ask, it’s too difficult to talk about!

[Hehehehe…]

Looking at the little guy whose body was trembling and who had a weird smile on his face.

Father and his two sons: …

Well, they needn't worry about it.

Emperor Qixuan turned his head away, thinking, out of sight, out of mind.

"As long as the Murong family is not eliminated, I will not be at peace."

"This is an opportunity."

Hearing this, the prince lowered his eyes and thought, then looked up after a moment.

"Father, do you mean to use cement to lure him out of his shell?"

Chu You was a little worried, "But will this work?"

“Pei Hongshao has been hiding for so long, with only cement, would he take this risk?”

The prince nodded slightly, "Second brother is right. Let alone cement, even if we add colored glaze, I'm afraid it won't be enough to attract him."

The next moment, he said meaningfully: "But what if it's a bomb?"

"But we don't have any bombs left."

The prince shrugged, "As long as they don't know we don't have it, isn't that enough?"

Emperor Qixuan nodded in appreciation, "Not bad!"

Then he looked at the little guy beside him.

"It would be nice if there was a recipe for a bomb."

【Finally I’ve come to the point.】

Chu Yaoyao restrained her smile, stood up from the chair and raised her little hands high.

"I know. Saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal!"

【Follow the proportions, you can make gunpowder! 】

The pupils of the father and his two sons trembled.

Emperor Qixuan's eyes flickered, and his tone was filled with irrepressible excitement.

"Yaoyao, are you talking about the formula for explosives?"

Chu Yaoyao nodded her head, "Yeah!"

…

On the other hand, after days of busy work and receiving rewards, Wei Cang returned home refreshed and happy.

"Father, you're back." Seeing him enter the main hall, Wei Yuelang walked towards the teapot.

After serving the tea, he stood aside.

"These days, you always go out early and come back late, working day and night. It's rare that you come back early today, but have you finished your work?"

Wei Cang had just taken two sips of tea when he heard what he said. He immediately put the teacup down heavily, raised his eyelids and glanced at him with an extremely serious tone.

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Do you want me to teach you this rule again?"

Seeing this, Wei Yuelang had no choice but to admit his mistake.

"The father taught the child to know his mistakes."

At this time, Mrs. Wei, who had just returned from burning incense at the temple, walked in slowly.

Seeing that the two people had strange expressions, she adjusted her hair.

"What's going on? I heard you guys arguing as soon as I walked in."

Wei Yuelang bowed slightly to her, "Mother."

Wei Cang stood up and walked over, "Madam is back?"

Seeing that she came back with a rosy face and in a good mood, Wei Cang also had a smile in his eyes.

"It seems like it would be a good idea to go and worship Buddha. I might as well bring Yu Niang and the others with me next time. They stay in the backyard all day and don't look very energetic."

Hearing this, Wei Yuelang glanced at him inconspicuously, and the expression on his face...

Well, it’s hard to put it into words.

"If they want to go, they can go by themselves. I won't take them!" Mrs. Wei refused without even thinking.

Are you kidding? How can she meet Dalang with so many people? "If you don't want to bring them, then don't bring them."

It was just a casual remark and it wasn't a big deal. Wei Cang didn't want to upset her because of it, so he just went along with her.

Mrs. Wei glanced at the two of them with a slightly inquiring look.

"What just happened?"

Wei Yuelang lowered his head and said, "I was too talkative. Seeing that my father has been leaving early and coming back late these days, I wanted to ask him what he was busy with, and forgot the rules for a moment."

Hearing her son's aggrieved tone, Mrs. Wei became unhappy and her face immediately darkened.

"Master, this is not right. Lang'er cares about you. Otherwise, who would want to listen to your Ministry of Industry's trivial matters?!"

Finally, she muttered, "Isn't it just cement? It's full of water and mud, so dirty!"

Wei Yuelang, who was standing by, heard the voice and looked puzzled.

What is cement?

"How do you know this?!"

Mrs. Wei was startled by his sudden anger.

But Wei Cang's forbearance and concession over the years have made her bolder.

She pointed directly at Wei Cang's nose and spoke loudly.

"Don't talk like I want to know so much, it's just that you often talk in your sleep at night!"

"Always cement, cement..."

Mrs. Wei looked mad, "I'm so annoyed by the noise!"

“Shut up!”

Wei Cang wished he could just cover her mouth.

His eyes were glaring, as if he hadn't lost his temper in years, and when he did, his aura was somewhat terrifying.

"Don't mention this matter again!"

Seeing his attitude, Mrs. Wei felt a little frightened. She moved her lips and spoke hesitantly.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Who cares?"

Wei Cang looked at Wei Yuelang standing beside him again.

"Don't worry, father. I will never reveal a word to anyone."

"Your Majesty has ordered——"

Suddenly there was a loud shout.

Everyone in the Wei family walked into the courtyard and knelt down to receive the order.

Su Maowen asked the young eunuch to hand the tray to Wei Cang.

"Master Wei, please stand up. In addition to the reward, the emperor has another oral order."

Hearing this, Wei Cang handed the tray to Wei Yuelang, then hurriedly got up and led Su Maowen to a secluded place.

Wei Yuelang, kneeling on the spot, lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, hiding the deep thought in his eyes.

"Lang'er, come on, get up quickly."

Mrs. Wei took the tray, handed it to the housekeeper beside her, and then helped her son up.

He also helped to pat the dust off the hem of his clothes.

Su Maowen first looked around cautiously, then lowered his voice.

"Sir Wei, the emperor has asked me to give you this envelope and ask you to keep it safe. Starting tomorrow, organize people and do what is written here."

Hearing this, Wei Cang knelt respectfully on the ground and took the envelope with both hands, "I obey your order!"

The mission was completed. Su Maowen came in a hurry and left quickly.

Looking at the envelope, Wei Cang was very excited.

He doesn't really care about rewards or anything like that.

The most important thing is that the emperor bypassed Minister Song and directly gave such an important task to him.

What does this mean? It means that His Majesty trusts him! Thinking of this, Wei Cang's blood boiled and he carefully put the envelope close to his body.

He must not let down His Majesty's trust!

Wei Yuelang walked up to him and only saw a corner of the envelope. He felt a little regretful, and then asked casually.

"Father, but the Emperor has another errand for you?"

Wei Cang glanced at him and asked, "Have you forgotten the rules again?"

Wei Yuelang bowed to him with a look of great joy on his face.

"I am just happy for you. I heard that His Majesty has often bypassed Minister Song and assigned tasks to you. I dare to guess that the Emperor wants to use you."

After hearing his words, Wei Cang felt a burning sensation in his heart.

If this is true, then...

No, I can't keep thinking about it.

Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the Lord.

There must be a deeper meaning behind the emperor's action, which is not something that ministers like them can guess.

He took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and his tone became serious.

"You are becoming more and more daring in trying to guess the Holy Will!"

Wei Yuelang lowered his head quickly and said, "Father, please calm down. I dare not do that."

"snort!"

Wei Cang snorted heavily, then said nothing more and walked straight towards the study.

Imperial Palace After coming out of the Imperial Study, the prince went to work on the cement.

"Yaoyao, my second brother has to go home first. I'll play with you another day."

After saying that, Chu You also left in a hurry.

Chu Yaoyao strolled around the Imperial Garden out of boredom, and opened the system panel every day to check the balance.

Suddenly, she stopped and stared at the panel, her face extremely serious.

[What's going on? Why is the progress going backwards?! ]
