From the look of Queen Ma, it seemed like she wouldn't be able to hold on for long. No matter what, just die, whether it's for Anqing or Zhu Biao, you have to block it. And if Queen Ma dies now, then Lao Zhu will definitely not be polite to him if he goes crazy. Instead of living in fear in the future, it is better to work hard now.
Han Du bowed his hands towards Lao Zhu and saluted, "I have a method, maybe you can try it."
As soon as the words fell, the whole palace could hear the needle drop.
Those imperial doctors looked at Han Du as if they would kiss him even if he didn't look at his own father. If Han Du stepped forward at this time, the imperial doctors would have someone to blame. Even if the blame cannot be placed entirely on Han Du, they don't have to bear the blame. No matter what happens, their lives can finally be saved.
It's just that the gray-haired old men looked at Han Du with such eyes, which made Han Du's skin crawl.
If Han Du knew the thoughts of these imperial doctors, he would definitely sneer at their childish ideas. They don't understand Lao Zhu at all. When Lao Zhu does something, he either doesn't do it or he has to do it absolutely.
As long as Queen Ma dies, Han Du can guarantee that no matter how many people come forward to take the blame, including the imperial doctors like them, they will all die.
"Say it, say it quickly." Lao Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this and pointed at Han Du excitedly.
"Back to the Emperor, I have nothing to say. I need to go back and make a medicine myself and ask the Emperor for permission." Han Du remembered that there is a magic medicine called nitroglycerin to treat angina pectoris. Both nitric acid and glycerin are readily available, and Handu also knows the method of preparing nitroglycerin. He only needs to make the nitroglycerin step by step. However, how should we explain this to Lao Zhu? Han Du had no way to explain.
"Yes, you go back and do it right away, don't delay for a moment." Fortunately, Lao Zhu still trusted Han Du, so he didn't think much about anything else and directly approved Han Du.
Han Du quickly withdrew, got on his horse without any courtesy, and started galloping around the palace. The cause of angina pectoris is cardiovascular blockage. Looking at Queen Ma, it is already very serious. When the cardiovascular system was completely blocked and Queen Ma died without knowing it, Han Du dared to waste even a moment and a half?
If there was a little delay and Queen Ma passed away, it would be useless even if he made nitroglycerin.
But in the palace, how can anyone ride a horse and run wildly? The reason why Han Du was able to ride in just now was because the old eunuch was running in front. Now Han Du is alone. Although the guards all know that Han Du is the same person who just rode into the palace, the rules are the rules. Can Han Du just ride a horse and run wildly now?
Fortunately, these guards had just seen Han Du, so they did not shoot arrows directly at Han Du, but tried to stop Han Du.
But before the guards could take action, the old eunuch followed from behind and started shouting from a distance: "Your Majesty has a decree. No one is allowed to stop Han Du. Let him go!"
The guards stepped back from the steps they had just taken, and looked at each other, wondering what the origin of Han Du was, and that he was allowed to ride a horse in the palace by the emperor.
Han Du went directly to Mingjingzhai and ran all the way towards the house.
Seeing Han Du rushing along the way, Han De asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"
Han Du had time to explain to his father, so he said without looking back: "It's urgent, dad, just leave it alone."
Before he finished speaking, the person disappeared in front of Han De. Han De looked at the place where Han Du disappeared, dazed, and murmured to himself: "What do you mean, I don't have to worry about it? But that's right, it seems that I haven't taken care of things for a long time. Am I really old?"
After saying that, he shook his head and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Han Du directly opened the door of the underground secret room and walked in.
Ever since Han Du discovered the secret room here, Han Du had been thinking about moving the experimental equipment from the banknote bureau. First of all, it was hard for Han Du to explain these things after people saw them. Secondly, Han Du had already discovered that someone was printing treasure banknotes privately. In order to avoid anyone trying to print treasure banknotes, Han Du also prepared to submit the potion for making cotton pulp and put it in a secret place for preparation.
The appearance of the secret room took advantage of Han Du's wishes.
Skillfully, he took out the beaker, poured in glycerin and nitric acid, then filled a larger beaker with water, and placed it on the flame to burn. To make nitroglycerin, you must heat it through water. If you use direct flame heating, fry it once you make it.
Soon, inside the beaker containing a mixture of glycerin and nitric acid, the oily liquid was divided into two different types with clear gaps, rolling up and down with the temperature.
Han Du carefully took the beaker out of the water and put it aside. Then he reached into it with a glass tube and took out a yellow clear oily liquid bit by bit, and put it into the prepared small glass bottle.
After a brief tidying up, Han Du placed the glass bottle in a wooden box lined with thick silk cloth. Nitroglycerin will explode due to high temperature and severe vibration, so Han Du didn't dare to be careless.
On the way back, Han Du no longer dared to ride a horse and could only walk back on his legs. Fortunately, Mingjingzhai is on Chang'an Street, not far from the palace.
As soon as Han Du appeared, he was seen by the old eunuch guarding outside the palace.
Seeing Han Du walking over step by step, the old eunuch hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Oh my God, the emperor is so anxious that he is crazy. Why don't you ride a horse and still walk over step by step?"
Han Du was sweating profusely. He was tired from walking such a long way, but more likely it was from holding an unstable bomb in his hand and being under tremendous pressure.
He rolled his eyes at the old eunuch and said coldly: "Do you think I am willing? If I ride a horse with this thing in my hand, I am afraid that before I even get out two steps, both the man and the horse will be gone."
"Why are the people and horses gone? What does Han Du mean?" The old lady listened in a daze and didn't understand what Han Du meant.
Han Du didn't bother to explain to him and continued walking forward with the wooden box in hand.
Before Han Du could take two steps, Lao Zhu, who had received the news, came out.
Han Du saw it and stopped quickly.
When Lao Zhu saw that Han Du had stopped, he frowned and asked sternly: "Now that the medicine has been brought, let's give it to the Queen quickly. Han Du, what are you doing so procrastinatingly?"
After saying that, Lao Zhu wanted to walk towards Han Du.
"Your Majesty, wait a minute." Han Du quickly waved his hand to stop Lao Zhu.
Seeing both Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao stop, Han Du breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "Your Majesty, although the thing in my hand is a good medicine, it is also a gunpowder. For the sake of the Emperor and the Crown Prince, It’s safe, your Majesty, please stay away, and everyone in the palace should also leave.”
