Li Shiming knew that Zhangsun Wuji and the others were afraid that the black gunpowder would be leaked, but he didn't care. Su Chen would be his future son-in-law, and he was smart. How could he leak it?
"Don't worry, this gunpowder won't be leaked. Li Jing, I'll leave the rest of the gunpowder bombs to you. You can bury the gunpowder bombs on the other side of the Wei River in advance and give the Turks a surprise.”
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will definitely do a good job.”Li Jing immediately promised Li Shiming.
"Don't leak what happened today. Go back and prepare now.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On the way back, Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Jing and hesitated for a while before chasing after him.
"General Li, um, um, can you tell His Majesty to let me go out with the army? There's nothing to do in Chang 'an, so I might as well kill the Turks.”
"General Cheng, I can't help you with this. Now that the Turks are invading, Chang 'an will probably be in chaos. How can your Golden Guards, who are in charge of Chang' an's security, go out and kill the Turks?" Li Jing looked at Cheng Yaojin and knew that this bastard had his eyes on the black gunpowder bomb and wanted to see it blow up the Turks.
"Then forget it. Old Cheng is going back to drink.”Cheng Yaojin saw that Li Jing did not agree and knew that there was no chance.
Li Shiming returned to the palace. This time, he felt a lot more at ease. He had some confidence in the war against the Turks. Li Shiming took out the black gunpowder formula and looked at it. He had to find someone he trusted to make this. Who should he find?
"Li Junxian, send someone to the Ministry of Works and have them find the best craftsmen to go to the manor southwest of the Imperial City. Send out the Imperial Guards to protect that place. Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Junxian immediately went to do what Li Shiming had ordered. He had also seen the explosion of the gunpowder today and knew that it had to be kept a secret. If it was leaked, he would be finished.
Seeing that Li Junxian had left to deal with some matters, Li Shimin went to the Empress's chambers. When he saw Empress Zhangsun, he laughed loudly.
"Guanyin maid, that kid really has a way. Not only did he give me a good idea, but he also gave me something that could make me a high official. Haha, if this kid finds out that I'm the emperor in the future, I wonder what expression he'll have.”Li Shimin was very happy now. He smiled when he thought of Su Chen's expression when he found out his identity.
"Did Su Chen really solve His Majesty's problem?”Empress Zhangsun was a little surprised. She did not expect that Su Chen would really solve the problem for the Emperor.
"En, that kid is a talent. He's just too lazy and only knows how to enjoy life. He's not willing to be an official and even said a lot of reasons why being an official is not good.”
" Then don't worry about him. It doesn't matter if he becomes an official or not. With His Majesty around, no one can bully him." Empress Zhangsun wanted to visit Su Chen when she had time.
"That's true. Let's not bother about him for now. Let's see if Li Jing can hold off the Turks on the Wei River. I'm preparing to go over as well. I have to go to the negotiations with the Turks this time, and I'll also go see the Turkic Jie Li Khan.”Li Shi Min said in high spirits.
Zheng Liwan left the farm and prepared to go home. This time, she looked at the grain in the farm and asked the manager. She should know the situation here.
On the way back, Xiang 'er was very happy when she saw the carriage. She didn't feel any bumps along the way. Young Master's carriage was really good. It was very spacious inside.
" Miss, no, Madam, how did Young Master ride the carriage? It's not bumpy at all on the road and it's so smooth."
"He's just ignorant and incompetent. He only does strange things all day long. He's also lazy and doesn't do anything proper.”Zheng Liwan said with a smile. Although she said that, she was very satisfied with her current life. Su Chen's love and the warmth of the family made her feel very good.
" But I feel that Young Master seems to know everything except writing." As the little girl spoke, she thought of Su Chen's handwriting. She did not expect that Young Master's handwriting was not as good as hers.
"Haha, Xiang 'er, don't let Su Chen hear you say that his handwriting is bad. Otherwise, he will teach you a lesson, just like that girl Qingxue.”Zheng Liwan couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Su Chen's handwriting.
Suddenly, there was the sound of insects fighting in front of them, as well as some cries for help. Zheng Liwan immediately asked the guard,
"What happened up ahead?"
"Madam, the people in front might have encountered bandits. Should we go and save them?”" What's wrong?" Wang Hu said hurriedly.
"Wang Hu, can you handle it?”
"Madam, don't worry. They're just some small thieves. We can deal with them.”
"Then hurry up and save them!"
When Wang Hu heard this, he arranged for some guards to guard the carriage while the others followed Wang Hu to save the people in front.
"Princess, you should run quickly. Our guards can't hold them back anymore.”A little girl in green clothes said to the woman beside her.
"Lan 'er, we can't run away. They have too many people and a few riders.”The princess looked at the few guards on her side. How could they protect them?
" Princess, look, there's a group of people behind us. We need to call for help." The little girl noticed that there was a carriage behind them, but there were too many of them.
Wang Hu rushed over with his guards and instantly hit a few of them. When the bandits saw that there were more than ten people coming, they shouted and charged at Wang Hu and the others,
"Kill them, and the women and property will be ours.”
"Kill!"
"Kill them!"
The bandits shouted loudly and charged at Wang Hu and the other guards, but these were the elite guards that Su Chen had obtained from the system. They were not something these bandits could deal with. In a short while, they were killed by Wang Hu and the rest. When the rest saw that they could not defeat these people, they scattered and fled.
Seeing that the bandits had been chased away by these people, the princess brought the little girl to Wang Hu and the others.
"Thank you for saving my life. I will repay you when I return to Chang 'an.”
Miss, there's no need to repay us. We're here to save you on Madam's orders." Wang Hu said disapprovingly.
At this moment, Zheng Liwan's carriage arrived. From the carriage, Zheng Liwan saw Wang Hu and the others talking to two women. When Wang Hu saw the carriage coming, he quickly went to the carriage and told Zheng Liwan what had happened.
