My bad father married a princess, my mother divorced me, and I became the group's favorite

Chapter 39 This woman has a special identity, might it cause trouble for Your Majesty?

Since it has been decided to present the gunpowder to His Majesty, Xiao Mu naturally has to test the power of the gunpowder in advance.

After Xiao Mu returned to the general's mansion, he immediately ordered people to store the gunpowder carefully and asked Mo Feng to select a few reliable confidants.

He knew very well that gunpowder was extremely powerful, and once the test was successful, it would become a powerful weapon on the battlefield.

So he personally took these people to the remote mountains outside Beijing and found an open place.

Everyone looked solemn, knowing that this experiment was of great significance.

Liu Yunniang only gave him a small portion, and he had someone readjust it according to the proportion. Then he personally directed everyone to carefully place the gunpowder, and every move was made with extreme caution.

His eyes were focused and solemn, and he was both looking forward to the power of gunpowder and being wary of potential danger.

"Stand away and be careful."

Xiao Mu whispered to the people around him. They followed his instructions and retreated to a safe distance, nervously watching the place where the experiment was about to take place.

Xiao Mu took a deep breath, picked up the fire starter, and ignoring Mo Feng's obstruction, he slowly approached the gunpowder with a stern look in his eyes.

At that moment, the air seemed to freeze and everyone's hearts were in their throats.

As the tinder ignited the gunpowder, there was a loud "bang", the earth shook, a huge ball of fire shot up into the sky, the surrounding grass and trees were instantly destroyed, and smoke and dust filled the air.

Everyone was stunned by the astonishing power and couldn't recover for a long time.

Everyone was stunned by the astonishing power and couldn't recover for a long time.

Is this thing so powerful?

These people had fought on the battlefield with Xiao Mu.

These people had fought on the battlefield with Xiao Mu and had seen countless bloody and tragic scenes, but they had never seen such amazing power. They looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and disbelief.

One of them murmured, "General, this thing is so powerful. If it is used on the battlefield, it will surely terrify the enemy."

Others nodded in agreement.

Xiao Mu looked at the scene in front of him and was shocked.

He knew very well that the emergence of gunpowder would change the pattern of war and bring hope of victory to the court.

He was silent for a moment, then said: "This is a national treasure, it must not be leaked. I will present it to your majesty, and then make a decision."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, General."

They were fully aware of the importance of the matter and secretly resolved to keep it strictly secret.

Xiao Mu looked at the smoke that had not yet dissipated again, his eyes full of determination and resolution.

Now he completely believed it. Once this thing was used on the battlefield, not to mention defeating the Rongdi, it was possible to directly destroy the Rongdi.

On the way back, everyone was immersed in the shock of the power of gunpowder, and at the same time full of expectations for the future.

They believed that with this magical thing, they would surely usher in victory and the people would live a peaceful life.

There was a gleam of excitement and shock in Xiao Mu's eyes. He believed that in the future, the territory of their Great Wei might have to be remeasured.

royal palace.

The atmosphere in the magnificent palace was solemn and dignified. Xiao Mu, wearing a solemn court robe, walked into the hall with a steady pace, standing tall like a pine tree.

His eyes were firm and calm, and in his hands he held tightly the brocade box containing the gunpowder formula.

Xiao Mu came before the emperor, knelt down respectfully, and said in a loud and clear voice: "Your Majesty, I, Xiao Mu, kowtow to you. Long live your majesty."

Emperor Jingxuan raised his hand slightly, motioning Xiao Mu to stand up.

"General Xiao, please excuse me. What are you doing here in the palace today?"

Xiao Mu stood up, holding the brocade box in both hands, and took a step forward.

"Your Majesty, I have something that may change the fate of our Great Wei."

Emperor Jingxuan showed curiosity on his face and leaned forward slightly.

"Oh? What could have such magical powers? Present it to me."

The eunuch quickly took the brocade box from Xiao Mu and respectfully presented it to Emperor Jingxuan.

When the emperor opened the brocade box and saw the gunpowder formula inside, he was stunned at first. After looking at it carefully, he was shocked.

"This is..." Emperor Jingxuan picked up the recipe and looked at it carefully.

"General Xiao, what is this recipe?"

Xiao Mu replied solemnly: "Your Majesty, this is the formula of gunpowder. I have tested its power. Once used on the battlefield, it can cause great damage to the enemy."

Emperor Jingxuan was shocked. He could not imagine that the formula recorded on this thin piece of paper could have such a huge power. However, it recorded in detail the explosion range after Xiao Mu's experiment.

"General Xiao, are you serious? Is this gunpowder really so magical?"

Xiao Mu nodded firmly: "Your Majesty, I dare not say a word of falsehood. This gunpowder is made of a mixture of sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal. Once ignited, it will produce a huge explosive force. If it is used on the battlefield, it can be used to make various firearms, such as cannons and rockets, with infinite power."

Emperor Jingxuan stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He knew the importance of this gunpowder formula. If it could be used properly, it would give Wei an absolute advantage in the war.

"General Xiao, you have made great contributions this time. This gunpowder formula is truly a blessing for the country." Emperor Jingxuan said excitedly.

Xiao Mu knelt down again and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not take credit for this. This gunpowder formula was offered by a commoner woman. She had a noble heart and cared about the safety of the country. I just presented it to Your Majesty."

Emperor Jingxuan nodded slightly, feeling deeply gratified by Xiao Mu's loyalty and the righteousness of the common woman.

"General Xiao, please stand up. You have done a great job. Who is this woman? I will definitely reward her handsomely."

Xiao Mu stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that with the emperor's attention, the matter was almost done.

"Your Majesty, this woman has a special identity, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Your Majesty?"

Xiao Mu stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.
