"You mean, this thing called "gunpowder" has actually existed for a long time?" Li Mingzhu looked at him and asked with a frown.
Li Yi nodded and said: "Fireworks, firecrackers, and the acrobatics of breathing fire and swallowing smoke in the hook bar are actually the same as it."
The formula for gunpowder had actually been figured out a long time ago by a crazy Taoist priest who wanted to take the drug to heaven, but the proportions were wrong and the effects of black gunpowder were not achieved at all.
And its application is actually very wide. Li Yi once saw those jugglers puffing clouds and smoke using gunpowder in the hook bar.
"Then why didn't they..." Li Mingzhu only said half of the words, but the meaning was obvious.
If fireworks and actors' performances could have caused the noise last night, those people would have been dead long ago, let alone not being discovered until now.
Li Yi explained: "This depends on the proportion of each ingredient in the formula. Even if there is a very small difference, the effect will be very different."
"How did you discover the secret?" Li Mingzhu looked at her and asked doubtfully.
She has actually been brewing this problem in her mind for a long time. Whether it is the problem of stones falling to the ground, or the horseshoe, or the method of seeing through people's hearts, or today's gunpowder, for thousands of years, no one in the entire world has discovered this.
The mystery within.
Why does it have to be him------Why does it have to be him every time?
Is he really smarter than everyone in the world combined?
How else could Li Yi Xindao discover that it was just relying on hundreds of thousands of years of knowledge accumulation by predecessors and the library cheating in his mind...
"At first I was just making firecrackers for fun, and while doing it, I accidentally discovered..." Li Yi looked at her and said.
Li Mingzhu glanced at him, thinking that he must have accumulated a lot of virtue in his previous life because he could still sit here and talk to her properly.
Then she thought of another question and asked again: "So, others can also discover the mystery of this?"
Li Yi rubbed his eyebrows. Can she control herself and others?
"From a probability perspective, this is indeed the case." Li Yi looked at him and said, "It may be a few days, months, years, or even decades, but maybe a second person will discover it tomorrow.
"
"Probability..." Li Mingzhu's face began to look puzzled again, "What is probability?"
"This is not important." Li Yi waved his hand, looked at her, and said seriously: "The important thing is, what are you going to do after I give you the formula?"
"Now on the border, our soldiers from the state of Jing are fighting with the state of Qi. If the gunpowder is really as powerful as you said, it must be a great achievement. If you can perform meritorious services on the battlefield, it is impossible for my father not to reward you and give you an official title.
It's all very possible." Li Mingzhu thought for a while, looked at him and said slowly.
If such a valuable weapon of the country is discovered by an ordinary person, what awaits him will not be a reward, but a disaster.
In order to prevent the secret recipe from being leaked, he will most likely be executed secretly. The best outcome is probably to be imprisoned for life, because the secret recipe is of great importance and if it is leaked to other countries, the consequences will be disastrous.
But Li Yi was different. The better he performed, the more important he became in his father's heart.
He is a talent that his father admires very much. The reason why he has not transferred him to the capital yet and only made him a small county captain is because he wants him to polish himself here for two years. After all, although he has many rifts in his heart, he still has a lot of troubles.
His temperament is really lazy, and such a character is not suitable for development in the court.
In fact, at the beginning, even she herself didn't know why her father valued someone he had only met once so highly. Just relying on his previous actions was not enough.
But what happened next forced her to admit that her father was still his father, and his vision of people was far beyond her ability.
The young man sitting opposite her is a being who can continue to create miracles.
After saying that, she looked at Li Yi and found that his mood was not very high.
"What scholars pursue throughout their lives is nothing more than being promoted to official positions, but you don't seem to be interested in these." She finally asked the question she had been wondering about for a long time.
Li Yi looked at her and asked: "If everyone has the same ideal, as the princess, shouldn't you be in the deep palace at this moment?"
Li Mingzhu was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
After a moment, she looked up at Li Yi again and said, "You know, this kind of life cannot go on forever."
Li Yi nodded noncommittally. After experiencing this incident, he also realized how naive his previous thoughts were. Living in such an era, it is not that easy to live a carefree life, even if he decides to
The emperor, who cares about whether everyone lives a happy life, probably has nothing to do with the word "freedom".
"It is impossible for the government to keep an eye on those Green Forest people all the time. Although they pose no threat to your wife, the others are still a bit troublesome." Li Mingzhu looked at him and said, "I will find a place in the city.
Let them settle down first."
Regarding Liu Ruyi, she had some comparisons in her heart before, but at this moment, she really had no idea at all.
"We will discuss the gunpowder matter in detail after you return to Fucheng." Li Mingzhu did not ask Li Yi any more questions about the gunpowder formula, and stood up and clapped her hands to say goodbye.
"Does the thing that made fire and loud noises have a name?" When she reached the door, she turned around and asked again.
"Maybe we can call it ------ a grenade?" Li Yi thought for a while and said.
"..."
"Then let's call it 'Heavenly Punishment'." After a pause, Li Mingzhu nodded and simply turned around and left.
Li Yi sat in the yard for a while, with a thoughtful look on his face. After a while, he got up and left.
It was indeed beyond his expectation that Her Royal Highness the Princess did not directly take away the gunpowder formula, but he also knew that she was conveying an attitude to him, a kind attitude.
Li Yi sighed. He had to admit that Her Royal Highness the Princess was very courageous.
However, if you don’t need to touch such a hot thing, you can’t touch it again in the future...
When she returned to her yard again, Xiaohuan was holding her red and swollen eyes to dry the half-washed underwear that Li Yi had left.
When he saw Li Yi, his mouth dropped and his eyes immediately filled with tears.
She stayed alone in the county government office last night and was worried all night. It wasn't until the morning that she was brought in by the police officer sister.
"Uncle..."
The next moment, he threw himself into Li Yi's arms like a swallow, and tears fell down.
