Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

Therefore, most people were so excited that they tossed and turned and couldn't sleep until the next day.

Then they were each taken into the Qianqing Palace.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Long live! Long live! Long live!"

Zhang Yuqing, Liu Yuanran, Ma Rui and others all spoke in exceptionally high-pitched voices. For no other reason, they had already arrived at the Qianqing Palace, so they were naturally one step closer to their plans and dreams!

As for everyone else.

They are more likely to hold the mentality of "fortunately, I was chosen" and just hope to get a good result. After all, with the foundation of major sects such as Zhengyi and Quanzhen, as well as famous people like Liu Yuanran who specialize in this field, it is obvious that they will feel a little insecure.

And Liu Ziqian is also a seed player of the Zhengyi School.

He was still struggling with the question he'd been agonizing over all night: "Him? Him, with a gift so rare it's hard to come by once in a century? Hey, Master said I'm the most gifted of the younger generation!"

What everyone was thinking was insignificant to Zhu Yunhuan. Even if his knowledge was beyond his time, he could not guess what everyone was thinking.

Seeing everyone come to the Qianqing Palace together, they paid their respects.

He said lightly, "Come with me." Then he stood up and walked slowly towards the back hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Everyone was confused, but Zhu Yunhuan had spoken, and if they didn't do it, it would be considered disobeying the order. Naturally, no one dared to disobey, and they all followed Zhu Yunhuan, not daring to say a word.

The group passed through the central hall.

Arriving at the backyard at the rear of the hall, filled with all sorts of flowers and plants, as well as some strange vines, they all sighed inwardly, "What a foolish ruler! The rumors from the outside world are true!"

They saw this tyrant emperor using extremely valuable red charcoal to burn next to a bunch of flowers and plants to keep warm! - What the hell is this if not a tyrant?

Even Yuan Gong, who was always confident, was confused.

He even began to doubt himself: "No...Is it because I'm old that my eyesight is blurry?"

These actions.

No matter how you think about it, he is not worthy of the so-called "Son of Heaven for All Ages" appearance.

Of course, everyone in the group was cursing each other in their hearts, but the bond from the nine clans made them keep their mouths shut, and no one uttered a single word.

So he followed Zhu Yunhuan obediently and entered a slightly remote room in the back hall, which was neither big nor small.

There was a slightly strange smell in the hall, somewhat similar to the smell that might occasionally appear when they were refining elixirs.

However, there was no alchemy furnace or other items as they had expected.

Instead, on a table, there were various shapes, crystal clear, dazzling... glass!!!

For a moment, everyone felt like a thousand horses were galloping through their hearts.

"A tyrant!"

"What a tyrant!"

Although they had never seen it, they knew that transparent glass was sold at a very high price outside. As a result, Zhu Yunhuan bought a whole table of glassware at once.

If this isn’t a tyrant, what is?

Everyone just felt.

This tyrant seemed to be constantly pushing the boundaries of their worldview...

Of course, His Majesty has these good things. If I can perform well and gain His Majesty's appreciation, why can't I have them in the future?

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what does this mean? Isn't it about... refining the elixir?" Someone finally couldn't help but speak out and asked tentatively.

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone, who had been eager to show off their skills, all looked at Zhu Yunhuan questioningly - We are still waiting to show off our skills and conquer you! Why are you just looking at us?

Zhu Yunhuan sat down behind a table filled with beakers, funnels, tubes, and other chemical laboratory equipment, and smiled faintly:

"It can be said that it is a ritual to refine the elixir, but it cannot be completely said to be alchemy."

"I call this thing a chemical experiment!" said Zhu Yunhuan.

Hearing this unfamiliar word, all fifteen people looked confused: "Chemistry? Experiment?" What the hell is this?

Zhu Yunhuan was not in a hurry either.

First, he casually took out a silk handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, and then took out a homemade alcohol lamp, a transparent crucible... and many other experimental materials, and then added red powder - mercury sulfide - into the crucible.

This is cinnabar, a material commonly used by alchemists.

While doing these things, he slowly said, "Let's do some small experiments first, starting with alchemy, which is what you are best at and most familiar with."

Look at Zhu Yunhuan's actions.

Everyone was stunned and had only one thought: How luxurious!

"First, heat the cinnabar..." Zhu Yunhuan said as he lit the alcohol lamp and waited for the reaction.

There are a lot of steps in making elixir, adding this and that.

In fact, the most important reaction is the decomposition of mercury sulfide by heating, turning it into elemental mercury and elemental sulfur. Of course, part of the sulfur will react with oxygen to form sulfur oxide.

To popularize chemistry, start with what they are most familiar with.

Although mercury is a metal, it is volatile and most of it will vaporize after heating. Therefore, Zhu Yunhuan prepared a cold copper tube to condense the mercury vapor into a liquid state and then collect it. As for the sulfur oxide generated, it was simply poured into the water for absorption.

of course.

He didn't have a perfect sealant on hand.

Of course, some of these gases would escape, which is why Zhu Yunhuan wore a face scarf.

As the reaction occurs.

soon.

Pale yellow crystals and powder appeared in the original crucible, which was the solid elemental sulfur left inside, while in the other two external containers, liquid mercury and a dilute sulfuric acid solution that appeared to have no change in appearance were generated.

The most eye-catching among them.

Liquid mercury, of course.

Very pure, round, and moves smoothly...
