Chapter 149 Gunpowder

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 As soon as the flame came into contact with the gunpowder, a chirping sound was heard, and a flame suddenly rose rapidly.

As a time traveler, he has naturally seen many scenes of gunpowder being ignited, so when the gunpowder was ignited, he was not frightened, but looked excited.

However, this is the first time for Fu'an.

The moment the gunpowder rose, he was so frightened that he screamed in panic.

"Your Majesty, be careful."

Seeing Fu'an's panic, Liu Chan immediately laughed and said: "You're a worthless thing, why are you making all the fuss?" But the next moment, Liu Chan said excitedly: "Succeeded."

Gunpowder will explode, but it is not scattered gunpowder, but needs to be made into firecrackers, or sealed into some kind of container, and then ignited or hit.

But these are not the main points.

The point is, when the flame touched the gunpowder just now, the flame suddenly rose.

This is gunpowder.

This is gunpowder.

Liu Chan was naturally excited, which made Fu An, who was waiting on the side, look completely confused.

How dangerous is this.

"Ahem!"

After calming down, Liu Chan glared at Fu'an, and Fu'an hurriedly obeyed Fu'an's orders.

"Go and clear out two courtyards for me," Liu Chan said seriously: "You have to remember, no one can enter or leave these two courtyards without my will."

"No!"

Fu'an responded, but did not leave immediately, causing Liu Chan to say angrily: "Why don't you go quickly?"

Fu'an has been serving Liu Chan for more than ten years, and Fu'an can feel Liu Chan's temper to some extent. In the past, unless he said that he would go to me immediately, or if he was not very happy, he would immediately go to me after his instructions. He does it. At other times, he usually doesn’t have to go immediately after giving instructions, especially when he is happy.

Because he may have something to say.

Liu Chan was obviously very happy at this moment, so Fu'an thought that the emperor had something to explain next.

But I didn’t want to stop for a moment and be attacked by Liu Chan.

There is no way, the emperor is fickle.

Fu'an hurriedly exited the Xuanshi Palace and went to prepare the courtyard for the emperor.

Weiyang Palace was built during the reign of Emperor Gaozu of the Western Han Dynasty. It has been expanded and repaired many times. At this time, the layout of Weiyang Palace was very large. It had been some time since Liu Chan moved into Weiyang Palace, but there were still many places in Weiyang Palace. When he arrived I haven’t been there yet.

Those are the few places I usually hang out in.

Go to the front hall when going to court, and stay in the back hall when nothing happens.

The back hall is also the harem. Although Liu Chan is playful, he also knows very well that it is not the time for the big man to enjoy it yet, so apart from occasionally going to the imperial garden, the rest of the time is either in Xuanshi Hall or

It's in the Queen's Jiaofang Palace.

These are also the palaces Liu Chan visited most.

There's nothing we can do about it.

The current Han Dynasty is definitely not comparable to the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties.

There are actually not many members of the royal family living in this harem now. There is one emperor, five concubines, and Empress Dowager Wu, who is the empress of the late emperor Liu Bei and the sister of Wu Yi, the general of the left.

As for the princes and princesses, Liu Chan currently has a daughter named Liu Rongyue, who is only two years old now.

Naturally, the two-year-old baby cannot live alone yet, so she still lives with her mother, Zhang Yuan, in Jiaofang Hall.

But——

This harem of Weiyang Palace is too big.

I don’t know how many palaces are currently idle.

At this time, gunpowder has been successfully developed, and the big man can make good use of it.

Of course, this is a killer of the times.

Naturally, confidentiality measures must be taken very seriously.

Fu'an came out of Xuanshi Hall and led two eunuchs around the back hall, preparing to choose two palaces for the emperor.

As for Liu Chan, he was very excited.

Because after gunpowder is developed, it will inevitably need to be mass-produced. As for how it will be used later, this is something to consider in the future.

Hehuan Hall——

Liu Chan came in from the outside with an excited look on his face.

But Ma E was a little puzzled for a moment.

"Your Majesty!" Ma E laughed and said, "What makes Your Majesty so excited?"

"E'er;" Liu Chan pulled Ma E back to the palace and sat down before he said, "You said before that there is a lot of saltpeter in Liangzhou, but is it true?"

Ma E nodded and said: "Yes!"

"Great;" Liu Chan was really excited. He had been unable to find saltpeter before. Now that saltpeter appears, God has opened his eyes and given him a chance to change the big man.

"E'er," Liu Chan said again, "can you send someone back to Liangzhou quickly to collect some saltpeter for me?"

"Ah???" Ma E was stunned when he heard this.

"Why does Your Majesty need these saltpeters?"

"I told you, but you can't understand it now;" Liu Chan smiled and said: "I will tell you its use later. In short, I need a lot of saltpeter now, the more the better."

Tell Ma E that this is the material for preparing gunpowder. Let’s not talk about whether Ma E knows what gunpowder is. If she knew the power of gunpowder, I am afraid that Ma Tianxiao would soon seal the saltpeter and let Ma E try to obtain the gunpowder to prepare it.

Method, if that's the case, I'm afraid this won't be the Han Dynasty changing its destiny. I'm afraid the Three Kingdoms will soon evolve into the Four Kingdoms competing for hegemony.

Now Liangzhou is showing favor to the Han Dynasty. It is the only state in Liangzhou. After decades of war, Liangzhou has long lost its glory. It was ruled by Cao Wei in the past, and now the Han Dynasty occupies Guanzhong. Although Ma Tianxiao took the opportunity to seize the

He gained the right to rule Liangzhou and appointed himself the governor of Liangzhou.

However, if Liangzhou now wants to fight against the big Han, it naturally does not have the capital.

It is precisely for this reason that Ma Tianxiao chose to rely on Dahan and then take advantage of the opportunity to develop.

If he was made aware of such artifacts as gunpowder, how could Ma Tianxiao give up this opportunity to change Liangzhou's status, so Liu Chan still had reservations about Ma E.

Liu Chan didn't say anything, and Ma E couldn't ask more questions.

However, Ma E knew that the important responsibility on her shoulders was to maintain the harmony between Han and Qiang. Now that the emperor of the Han Dynasty liked saltpeter, she would not be stingy. After all, to the Qiang people, saltpeter was just a kind of magician who refined so-called elixirs.

Just the materials.

So Ma E quickly followed Liu Chan's instructions and wrote a letter to his father, Ma Tianxiao, and told Ma Tianxiao that the Han Emperor Liu Chan liked saltpeter.

February 3, 232 AD.

Liangzhou——

Ma Tianxiao was very happy. After reading the letter written by his daughter, he immediately said to the envoy sent by the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Your Majesty wants saltpeter, and Tian Xiao will do his best to supply it."

With that said, Ma Tianxiao immediately arranged for five hundred soldiers to mine saltpeter for the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

The envoy followed the soldiers and left the Governor's Mansion. Ma Tianxiao said proudly: "Brother, E'er has done a great service for us Qiang people, hahaha!"

Ma Tiande frowned slightly and said, "Tian Xiao, don't be careless about this."

"Oh???" Ma Tianxiao was stunned and asked: "Brother, what do you mean?"

"Brother Wei went to Chang'an a few days ago and was fortunate enough to meet the Emperor of the Han Dynasty." Ma Tiande said lightly: "Brother Wei, looking at this man's conversation, he is definitely not the mediocre master that people say. This time the Han Dynasty was able to take over Guanzhong because of his boldness.

He rushed forward and caught Cao Wei off guard."

"Hmm!!!"

Ma Tianxiao, who was originally proud, suddenly nodded slightly.
