This is really... a bit embarrassing.

But he was not too panicked. The fulminate of mercury had just not come out yet. When it came out later, these people would naturally see it. So, although he hesitated for a moment, he did not care too much.

However, when everyone saw Zhu Yunhuan's hesitation, they all had a clue in their minds - oh well! It was still just a concept! That guy was just too eager for quick success, thinking of flattering His Majesty, gaining His Majesty's favor, and gaining a bright future. But he was just flattering the horse!

All of a sudden.

The whole classroom suddenly became extremely quiet, and no one dared to offend Zhu Yunhuan at this time - it was true that he was extremely talented and worthy of attention, but it was also true that he was murderous and ruthless.

Now someone is roasting him on the grill, so that when he kills someone, his face won’t be splattered with blood.

And the one who stood out to flatter before.

At this moment, he was already covered in cold sweat, shivering with his head down, thinking to himself, "I'm going to die! I'm done!"

Just as he was full of thoughts.

When I was thinking about how to save my life, there was a sudden knock on the door. The sound was particularly loud in the quiet classroom.

No one knew why someone would dare to knock on the emperor's door at this time. The atmosphere was tense and everyone was sweating in their hearts, especially the one who flattered the emperor to the point of hitting the horse's leg. He almost had a heart attack and his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Zhu Yunhuan was already used to this.

In a research and development place like the Alchemy Bureau, what he always wanted to see was the results, and the further realization of the various theories he proposed, so he never blamed anyone for disturbing him as an emperor.

Of course, this is premised on something important.

So at this moment, his eyes lit up slightly, and with a hint of anticipation, he said lightly: "Come in."

As his voice sounded.

The door was pushed open with a "bang", and a middle-aged Taoist priest in a gray Taoist robe walked in. He had an untidy beard and messy hair hanging down in front of his forehead, looking very sloppy.

But at this moment, his eyes were particularly bright and full of excitement.

It also broke the somewhat silent and awkward atmosphere here.

Everyone looked him up and down and felt that he was very unfamiliar - although he was also wearing a Taoist robe, they had not seen him when they entered the door.

"Han Lingyue? What's the matter?" Zhu Yunhuan asked slowly.

Others may not recognize him, but he certainly did. When the candidates were selected, he was the one who blew up the alchemy furnace. Later, all the research related to the gunpowder formula was basically conducted by him.

However, Han Lingyue seemed not to notice the gazes of the crowd.

After the door opened, a pair of eyes stared at Zhu Yunhuan, who was at the innermost part. He took two steps at a time and quickly approached Zhu Yunhuan. He bowed and saluted, "Disciple Han Lingyue, greetings to His Majesty! The explosion just now...didn't startle His Majesty?"

Disciple... everyone was pondering this title in some confusion.

Then he heard the middle-aged Taoist named Han Lingyue, who looked impatient and didn't even wait for Emperor Zhu Yunhuan to reply to him. He continued to talk to himself with an excitement that was difficult to suppress:

"Your Majesty...it exploded! It was the fulminate of mercury that exploded!"

"I followed the method Your Majesty gave me. I first reacted mercury with nitric acid. After many attempts, I varied the concentration and temperature of the nitric acid solution. Finally, mercury nitrate was formed. I then added alcohol..."

"The product of this reaction exploded just by being lightly touched! I think it's what Your Majesty was talking about..."
