Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 46

Chu Haojue didn't care. After all, he did things openly and honestly, and he didn't offend the Crown Prince. He had no idea about that position.

He only wanted to protect the Chu Yuan Kingdom from being invaded by other countries.

If the crown prince ascends the throne in the future and is afraid of him, he will hand over the military power to him without hesitation.

It would be nice to be an idle prince in the future. I just don't know if Qiao Anan will dislike that he is just an idle prince?

Maybe I can learn some business skills from her.

It's good to do business with her and have a harmonious relationship with her.

After a while, Qiao Anan took out four bamboo tubes that were different in size from the ones just now.

"Qiao Anan, what are you doing again?" Empress Xian frowned and looked at the bamboo tubes in Qiao Anan's hands with disgust.

"Your Majesty, shall we go to the back mountain again?" Qiao An just looked at Concubine Xian with amusement. Instead of answering Concubine Xian's words, he turned around and asked the emperor beside him.

She wanted to continue to destroy Chu Haojue's mansion, but at this moment, Chu Haojue's parents and brothers were all here, so she didn't dare to act rashly. If she really wanted to blow up Chu Haojue's mansion again, she was afraid that Concubine Xian would eat her.

Chu Yuanming looked at the yard outside Chu Haojue's mansion and thought about it.

"Let's go to the back mountain." Chu Yuanming thought it would be better not to harm his own son.

"What do you mean by back mountain or not? Your Majesty, what on earth are you talking about?" Empress Xian said with some displeasure.

"Don't worry, my dear concubine. You will know soon." For some reason, Chu Yuanming also wanted to tease Concubine Xian at this time.

I was wondering what kind of expression Empress Xian would have after she lit the gunpowder.

Chu Haojue wanted to remind Concubine Xian, but with the Emperor present, he couldn't say much. He could only think about protecting his mother more for a while.

The group arrived at the foot of the back mountain in a mighty procession.

Empress Xian looked at the pile of rubble and a big pit at the place they had just bombed. For some reason, she always felt that this pit was related to the two pits in Chu Haojue's mansion.

What did she want to ask? But seeing the emperor, Zhu Yuanliang, and Fang Huarong all so excited, she felt like she had overlooked something.

Although the prince had some questions, he was smart enough not to raise them.

Seeing that the Crown Prince didn't say anything, the Fifth Prince naturally didn't say anything more.

Qiao Anan looked around and finally chose a relatively flat place as her target.

After all, if Concubine Xian was asked to ignite the first shot, she was worried that if the slope was too steep, she would not have time to escape.

"My beloved, please try it." Seeing that Qiao Anan had already arranged everything, Chu Yuanming said to Concubine Xian beside him.

Empress Xian was completely confused, not knowing what the Emperor meant.

But she did not dare to disobey the emperor's order.

Chu Haojue followed Empress Xian to where Qiao Anan was. The prince also wanted to follow, but was stopped by the emperor.

"Wait a moment, watch here first." Chu Yuanming said.

After all, Qiao Anan had just brought over several bamboo tubes, so the prince had plenty of opportunities.

Moreover, he looked and saw that the one Joan had just placed was the smallest one.

At this time, he was also very curious about how much power such a small bamboo tube could produce.

"Yes!" Although the prince didn't know why the emperor didn't let them pass, he believed that he must have his reasons.

Seeing Chu Haojue bringing Concubine Xian over, Qiao Anan handed the fire starter to Chu Haojue and quickly ran to the emperor.

"What does she mean?" Empress Xian was furious as she watched Qiao Anan run away.

"Mother, can you please use a tinder to light this place? Once it's lit, we'll run away." Chu Haojue could only speak seriously to Empress Xian.

Empress Xian looked puzzled, not knowing what was going on.

She wanted to turn around and leave. What was so strange about a bamboo tube being lit?

However, seeing the emperor's excited look not far away, he did not dare to leave.

After thinking about it, Empress Xian thought, isn't it just lighting a fire? What's so difficult about it?

Empress Xian thought about it and lit the tinder, then she lit it towards the fuse and did not run away. She wanted to see what kind of trouble this would cause.

Chu Haojue watched the fire ignite without a second thought, and quickly grabbed Concubine Xian and ran away.

Empress Xian had no intention of running away, but now she was being dragged by her son and was still unable to react.

"Stop!" After Empress Xian reacted, she quickly scolded Chu Haojue. How could she do such an indecent thing in front of the emperor?

But Chu Haojue had only one thought at this moment, which was to take Concubine Xian away quickly.

But Empress Xian was still there, worried about being embarrassed in front of the Emperor, and was unwilling to run away.

Chu Haojue picked up Concubine Xian without thinking and ran to where the emperor was.

However, just now, the two of them pulled each other for a while and had only taken a few steps.

"Oh!"

A loud noise rang out, and Empress Xian, who was still shouting, was suddenly stunned.

What happened? What sound did she hear?

Fortunately, Chu Haojue had already taken Concubine Xian a little far away from the place where the gunpowder was placed. Chu Haojue also had previous experience and just now he covered Concubine Xian's ears tightly.

In addition, the bamboo tube was not big and there was not much gunpowder.

"What...what's going on?" Empress Xian asked in horror.

"Mother, are you okay?" Chu Haojue looked at Empress Xian with some concern and asked.

"What's going on over there?" Empress Xian pointed tremblingly at the place where she had just lit the fire, and found that it had been blown beyond recognition.

She couldn't imagine, if Chu Haojue hadn't pulled her away just now, would she have been blown to pieces like that puddle of mud?

The thought that she might be blown to pieces made Empress Xian feel a chill down her spine.

"Qiao Anan, what is that thing?" Empress Xian turned to look at Qiao Anan and asked angrily.

"Oh, Empress Xian, I was just playing a joke on you. Are you okay?" Qiao An stuck out her tongue and hurried forward to comfort her.

"Are you kidding me? You want to scare me to death." Empress Xian felt that she had not recovered yet.

It's so scary.

"Good! Good! Empress Xian, don't be angry. Why don't you think about this thing. If it is used in the army, how much trouble can Jue'er save?" The emperor smiled and walked forward to look at Qiao Anan with appreciation, then comforted Empress Xian.

The originally furious Empress Xian calmed down after hearing the emperor's words.

Although Empress Xian was impulsive and not very smart, she was not stupid either. Especially when it came to her son's safety, Empress Xian always took it seriously.

Just now she saw that Qiao Anan put down only a small bamboo tube.

It is a very small thing, but it can cause such great power.

If this thing is used on the battlefield, then their Chu Yuan Kingdom will not be afraid of Xijing Kingdom and Nanyue Kingdom? Thinking of this, Concubine Xian was also a little excited.
