The entire palace was electrified. Not only the people living in the palace were shocked, but also the people outside the palace were shocked after seeing it!

"Master, master, get up quickly and see what's going on over there in the palace? Why is it so red? It's not on fire, right?"

Not far from the palace, a peasant woman got up in the middle of the night to feed her child, and suddenly discovered an astonishing scene.

He saw a dazzling light shining over the entire palace. He had only seen this kind of situation when someone else's house was on fire!

"Oh! Stop talking nonsense. There are countless guards in the palace, how could it catch fire...?"

The man seemed a little impatient. He turned over and muttered in a low voice, "Okay, don't be suspicious anymore. Even if the palace catches fire, it won't burn our house. Go to sleep quickly. We still have to work tomorrow!"

"No! Get up and take a look. I see that many neighbors have gathered outside. Something must have happened in the palace!"

While the peasant woman was breastfeeding her child, she kicked her man with her feet.

There was nothing she could do. The child was nursing and she couldn't leave. Otherwise, she would definitely go out and have a look in person. Why would she call him?

"Ouch! Okay, okay, let me go take a look!"

After being kicked several times in succession, his dream was disturbed. The man opened his eyes impatiently and looked in the direction of the palace.

"My dear mother, this...isn't this really a big fire?"

Just this look, the frightened man suddenly became energetic.

There was a dazzling light shining over the entire palace.

If it’s not a god coming to the world, it must be a huge fire!

Otherwise, the sky above the palace would never be so bright!

Thinking of this, the man grabbed a piece of clothing, put it on, and rushed out!

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is there a fire in the palace?"

A group of people gathered outside the door, pointing at the palace, and seemed to be discussing something.

The man quickly got into the crowd and asked about the situation!

His family lived next to the palace. If the fire could not be controlled, he had better make plans in advance and escape with his wife and children!

"Bah, bah, bah, shut up now. Aren't you afraid that a guard will rush out later and put you in jail?"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the people looked at him like a fool.

One of the old men vomited on the ground three times in succession, telling him to shut up!

"This...why is this?"

The man's face was full of confusion and he didn't know why.

They stayed up most of the night and all ran out to give advice to the palace. Isn't it because of the strange phenomena in the palace?

"Why? Why else...?"

The old man looked him up and down and curled his lips, "Don't you know that the wires are being pulled in the palace?"

"I know!"

After being looked at by the old man, the man remembered that his clothes had not been arranged yet, so he quickly arranged his clothes and nodded.

"Why don't we stop it? Today is the day when the palace is powered on, so it emits such a bright light! We are all here to watch the excitement!"

"I see!"

After the old man's explanation, the man finally understood.

At the same time, I was also afraid of the reckless words I just said!

It would be difficult if someone with a quick tongue spread his words into the palace!

All in all, if the palace is cursed with fire, isn't this looking for death?

Fortunately, everyone only glanced at him, then turned their heads, looked at the brilliance emanating from the palace, and started talking!

"I have lived at the foot of this imperial city for decades, and I have never seen the palace so bright!"

"No! This electric lamp is really powerful. It lights up the palace as if it were daytime!"

"It would be great if we could also use this power!"

"Yes! But I'm afraid the cost of electricity is too high and we can't afford it...!"

In the past, people only knew about electricity through propaganda in newspapers and news from craftsmen working in power plants.

But tonight, they truly saw the power of electricity, and they were amazed!

As everyone knows, lighting is only the most insignificant of the many functions of electricity!

The electric lights in the palace stayed on all night long, and many people just stood outside the palace and watched it all night!

It wasn't until daybreak and all the lights in the palace were turned off that they dispersed and got into the crowd, telling how beautiful the palace was at night and the magic of electricity!

Those people who lived relatively far away were very curious after hearing about this. They came outside the imperial city one after another, waiting for nightfall to take a closer look to see if the electricity was as magical as they said!

Until nightfall, when the power switch in the palace was pushed on again, their jaws suddenly dropped!

In this way, the night view of the palace has become a scenic spot in Xianyang.

Whether you come to Xianyang City for tourism or business, you must take the time to see the Imperial City at night so you can brag about it when you go back!

After all, only the imperial palace has electricity, and there is not even a single wire in other counties!

"Your Highness, now that the power supply to the palace has been completed, when will we be able to bring us a wire so that we can read at night and not be so tired?"

The electric lights in the palace that stayed on all night caused quite a stir in Xianyang and the entire Qin Dynasty.

Everyone is eager to use this thing that is as bright as day!

Therefore, after the morning court, before Ying Feiyu could leave the Qilin Hall, he was surrounded by a group of ministers!

"Yes! After researching electricity, it can't be just to supply power to the palace, right?"

"Didn't His Highness the Prince say that electricity will come to ordinary people's homes in the future? When will it be installed in our homes?"

"What are you in a hurry for? We, the generals, have to study the art of war day and night before we can have stability in the Qin Dynasty. You have to install it for us first!"

"Don't do this. Now that we have hot weapons, if you don't like whoever you like, just push them over. Do you still need to study military books? On the contrary, we civil servants need to study poetry and books and learn from the wisdom of the ancients. Find a more suitable way to govern the country and use it to promote the development of Great Qin!"

"Shut up, what else can you do all day long? If it weren't for us, once a foreign enemy breaks in, you can beat them away just by relying on them? Even if there are thermal weapons, will you use them?"

"That's better than you...!"

Civil servants and military generals have always been incompatible with each other, which has never been solved in all dynasties.

But Ying Feiyu really didn't expect that a small electric light could make them quarrel!

"Okay! Stop arguing!"

Ying Feiyu was caught in the middle and almost couldn't breathe.

At first, he tried to persuade everyone, but no one listened. In the end, he could only give a sharp shout to shut everyone up.

Seeing the prince's anger, the noisy ministers, who were blushing and thick-necked, did not dare to say anything anymore!

If the prince is offended by this, what should they do if they don't install electricity in their home?
