The book begins with the waste of all the members

After dark, Si Muqin arrived at Chengming on time to wait for dinner. However, just as he put his foot in, a dark shadow attacked with a "whoosh" sound, and he immediately retracted his foot.

The corner of the kitchen knife was stuck in the ground, and the handle of the knife was shaking wildly, making a "da da~~" sound.

Si Muzhen asked the little palace maid guarding the gate, "Does your queen know?"

The little palace maid knew everything without even thinking and nodded frantically.

"Very angry?"

The little palace maid's head nodded like a pile driver, "da da da da da da" like crazy.

Si Muzhen pretended to be calm, put his hands behind his back, and said, "Alright, I get it. You're angry with me just for such a small matter. It's really hard to raise a woman or a villain."

Si Muzhen walked into the side hall with his hands and feet clasped together.

"What's good to eat tonight?"

As the saying goes, don't scold a smiling person. As long as he is sunny and cheerful enough, Wei Yu will feel embarrassed to scold him.

"Oh~~ Isn't this the emperor?" Wei Yu slapped his forehead and said in a very sarcastic tone, "I forgot that the emperor can eat with his mouth. I'm so sorry."

"Hahaha, people have mouths so of course they need to eat. Let me see what dishes we have tonight..."

There was only a huge fish on Si Mu's dining table. The fish actually had a pair of wings and six eyes on its head.

"Queen, this fish..." is a bit scary.

"This fish is called the Six-Eyed Flying Fish." Wei Yu handed Si Muzhen a pair of chopsticks and said, "Eat it."

Si Muzhen held the chopsticks, not knowing where to start.

"Wait a minute." Wei Yu took out a small bottle and said, "I forgot to add salt when I punished this six-eyed flying fish. Come on, Rumor, shake some salt into it."

Si Muyu: "..."

"I just heard a story about the 'Six-Eyed Flying Fish' today. It's very interesting. Have you heard of it?"

"No..." Si Mu said weakly, "Please speak."

"A long, long time ago, in a remote town in the west, a huge monster appeared. This monster was a very large and ferocious fish. This fish had sharp fangs and six eyes, and it could fly."

"This fish is incredibly ugly. The villagers call it the six-eyed flying fish. It often comes into the village to cause trouble, making life miserable for the people..."

"Finally one day, the village chief made a decision. He would recruit a warrior from all over the world to defeat the six-eyed flying fish..."

"I was wrong." Si Muzhen put down his chopsticks and apologized sincerely.

Wei Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "What's wrong with fighting with me, little guy?"

“It’s all wrong.”

Si Mu was full of desire to survive.

"If you dare to spread rumors again," Wei Yu snapped the chopsticks in his hand fiercely, "I'll end our friendship."

"Yes Yes Yes."

"Eat." Wei Yu picked up another pair of chopsticks.

Xiaolin brought a few palace maids to bring up the remaining dishes.

The original fish was actually just an ordinary steamed fish. The wings were made of fish fins, and the four extra eyes were taken from another fish.

Si Muzhen ate with gusto.

"By the way, Mu Zhou is going back to Beijing." Si Muzhen said.

Wei Yu's eyes lit up with excitement. "Really? When?"

"I'm going to give him a grand welcome."

Wei Yu thought that he would never see Si Muchu again in this life, but he didn't expect that.

"I have to thank him very much when he comes back. He chased everyone to the north to help me get revenge. He moved heaven and earth to thank you and me."

Si Muzhen felt that the rice in his hand was no longer fragrant and was full of sour taste.

"He'll only be back for a few months, and then it'll be time for him to go back north again during the autumn harvest."

"why?"

Si Muzhen picked up a piece of fish for Wei Yu and said, "It's spring now, and all the countries are preparing for spring plowing. They have no time for war. After the autumn harvest, the Xiongnu will move south to plunder."

"Don't we have the Great Wall?" Wei Yu remembered that this was the original function of the Great Wall.

"Yes, but there are some areas that haven't been connected yet. They will come in from those areas. Every year, countless soldiers stationed in those areas are killed or wounded."

Speaking of such a heavy topic, Si Muzhen put down the bowl in his hand.

"It would be great if there was something that could intimidate the Huns and stop them from invading." Si Muzhen said to himself.

Wei Yu suddenly had an idea, "Landmines, we can bury mines in those places."

"What it is?"

"They're firearms. If you step on them and move your foot, they'll explode, blasting anyone nearby to pieces."

Wei Yu knew all about them, "In addition to mines, we can also make grenades, explosive packs, artillery barrels..."

The design drawing of a pistol appeared in Wei Yu's mind. Maybe he could make a pistol for self-defense.

I miss Yinsheng a little. If Yinsheng were here, he might really be able to make a pistol out of his hands.

Si Mu asked excitedly, "How do we make these things?"

"Looking for a Taoist priest who can make elixirs."

Wei Yu had heard before that the formula for gunpowder was first discovered by a Taoist priest when he was making elixirs and blowing up his furnace.

After hearing Wei Yu's description, Si Muzhen thought it was very feasible and just wanted to give it a try. So, Si Muzhen issued an imperial edict overnight, summoning Taoist priests from all over the country to come to the capital.

In less than three months, tens of thousands of Taoists had gathered in the capital. These Taoists only knew that the emperor wanted to recruit Taoists, but they had no idea what he was going to do.

It was just to make some elixirs of immortality for the emperor, and some anti-aging pills for the concubines.

"Miss, Madam~~" Yinlan's trembling and excited voice came from a distance, "I'm back, I'm back, woo~~"

Wei Yu felt strange. Why did Yin Lan cry with joy when Si Muchu came back? In some unknown place, had their relationship become so deep?

"Come back when you can..."

"Miss, Madam, wuwuwu~~ Yinsheng is back..."

"Ah?" Wei Yu jumped up from the rocking chair, and Tianci who was lying on her was startled.
