"This Feng Qingyan is really capable of anything."

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly.

Thinking of Feng Qingyan's stunning face, she instantly became greedy.

Feng Qingyan was not only a rare beauty, but also had medical skills and business skills. She was simply perfect.

If he could marry her back to the palace, it would not only satisfy his original regret, but also help him fill the treasury and consolidate the throne. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

The emperor's dream was really well fulfilled.

There is no fear that Xiao Mingye will find out and subvert his imperial power in a rage.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, do you want your subordinates to continue to monitor them?"

The emperor's shadow guard didn't understand why the emperor suddenly showed such a look, and asked in confusion.

"Let everyone evacuate."

The emperor came to his senses and was slightly embarrassed.

What's the point of monitoring when growing herbs?

He now had to plan carefully how to get Feng Qingyan.

Why do you think he was so mean-spirited to marry Feng Qingyan to Xiao Mingye with his own hands?

No wonder Xiao Mingye was not only not annoyed, but also very happy.

Could it be that he knew Feng Qingyan's original appearance and talents from the beginning?

This is really unreasonable.

The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, and he was almost furious to death.

He had to mess with Xiao Mingye's marriage.

On the top of the mountain, the emperor's people on the front foot evacuated, and Feng Qingyan and the others on the back foot started working.

Xiao Mingye and Feng Qingyan had already done a good job before, and invited a group of professional masters to conduct an on-site inspection.

For the sake of safety, Feng Qingyan checked a lot of information about modern mines.

Let the construction master strictly follow the standards set by her to ensure that mineral collection is completed efficiently and safely.

The old master responsible for digging wells is named Zhang Liang. He has been doing this for decades and has rich experience.

Seeing the construction drawings provided by Feng Qingyan, I couldn't help but admire them.

"It's very appropriate to drill a well here. The Ninth Princess is really a great talent."

Zhang Liang looked at Feng Qingyan with admiration on his face.

He considers himself to be a leader in the field of mining.

But when he saw Feng Qingyan's drawings, he felt that all aspects had been taken into account, and he felt inferior.

"Thank you, sir. I'm just talking about it on paper. You need to pay more attention to the actual implementation."

Feng Qingyan didn't dare to take credit. These were just experiences summarized by future generations.

She just made a copy of the information.

She is not proficient in specific practical operations.

"The Ninth Princess is humble."

Zhang Liang only thought that Feng Qingyan was pretending to be modest.

After all, there is no other person with such experience in the entire Great Xia. If Feng Qingyan didn't really understand, how could she come up with such a plan?

Feng Qingyan smiled helplessly, it was hard to explain, just misunderstanding.

Xiao Mingye on the side couldn't be more proud. With a little princess who was praised all the time, he felt that he must have saved the world in his previous life.

Everything was planned, and Zhang Liang started to organize the people to dig the well.

With Feng Qingyan's drawings, everything went smoothly.

Just as they were about to see the minerals below, Zhang Liang and the others encountered a problem.

Directly below the wellbore was blocked by a huge rock.

The rock is so hard that it will take until the Year of the Monkey to break open the boulder.

Finding another way is almost impossible.

This can hardly harm Zhang Liang.

In the end, Zhang Liang could only find Feng Qingyan.

Feng Qingyan came to the boulder and took a look. Would this small problem be called a problem in modern times?

Easily done with just a drill.

"Don't worry about this, old man. I'll find a way to solve it. Everyone has worked hard today, so let's finish work early and continue tomorrow morning."

After all the workers left, Feng Qingyan went to the camp to get paper and pen to write a list and gave it to Xiao Mingye.

"Your Majesty, please let someone prepare the things above. It's best to buy them separately."

Feng Qingyan wrote on the list sulfur, grass, wood, gray saltpeter, etc., which are needed to make improvised explosives.

She didn't know how much Daxia knew about gunpowder, so the fewer people knew about these things, the better.

To prevent anyone from looking at it.

Xiao Mingye took a look at the items on it and immediately asked someone to purchase them without asking any questions.

Mu Qing's work efficiency was very high, and she bought everything and sent it back in a short time.

"What does the princess want with these things?"

Mu Qing looked at the pile of sulfur, grass, gray saltpeter, and wondered what this thing could do.

"Make gunpowder."

Feng Qingyan smiled mysteriously.

Don't underestimate these things, they may blind you in a moment.

"Fire...gunpowder?"

Mu Qing was surprised.

Did the princess say the same thing as he thought?

Beiliang has developed a new type of weapon called firearms in the past two years. It is quite powerful and poses quite a threat to their army.

"That's right."

Feng Qingyan nodded.

Judging from Mu Qing's expression, she should know something.

Feng Qingyan didn't explain much.

Just start drying.

She mixed sulfur plant ash and saltpeter according to a certain proportion to make a simple explosive bag.

Xiao Mingye and Mu Qing looked at her without blinking the whole time, obviously very curious about the thing in her hand.

This seems to be different from Beiliang's stuff.

"Let's go and show you its power."

Feng Qingyan didn't really have a coal-mining drill, but she had a wall drill which was enough.

When Xiao Mingye was away, she took the wall drill from the space and drilled the holes first.

She put these simple explosive packets directly into the drill hole, and the effect after detonating them was also impressive.

Seeing that Feng Qingyan had prepared the lead, Mu Qing took out the flint and struck it for a long time, but it didn't catch fire.

Feng Qingyan was speechless. She took out a lighter from the space and ignited it instantly.

Mu Qing's eyes were shining as she looked at the lighter in Feng Qingyan's hand.

Really want!

Ask for alms!

"Why don't you leave quickly? Do you want to wait to be blown into a pulp?"

Seeing how hopeless he was, Feng Qingyan threw the lighter directly to him.

"Thank you, Princess."

Mu Qing immediately beamed, even more happy than if she had obtained the rare treasure.

He was just happy for only three seconds, but the lighter in his hand was in Xiao Mingye's hand.

Xiao Mingye was obviously unhappy.

His little princess hasn't given him anything yet, how could she let Mu Qing get it first?

Mu Qing felt a little hopeless.

His prince is too stingy.

That was given to him by the princess.

Feng Qingyan made the medicine guide long enough, so they had enough time to exit the cave.

Not long after the three people exited, a deafening explosion came from inside.

The whole mountain felt like it was shaking.

Xiao Mingye didn't expect this thing to be so powerful, and was shocked.

The so-called firearms from Beiliang are not worth mentioning in front of the gunpowder made by Feng Qingyan.

Mu Qing was so shocked that she could stuff eggs into her mouth.

Feng Qingyan couldn't help but chuckle.

If she told them that this kind of gunpowder was just the most rudimentary version, and that any kind of bomb in her space would be a hundred times more powerful than it, I really don't know what they would think.
