Iron Dynasty

"Niangniang, don't tease the slaves. How can I wait for the humble person, He De, to wait by the emperor's side."

The air seemed to be stagnant for a while, and Aster reacted first, panicking.

Luluo was also a little flustered. Since Xiao Ming became the throne, this distinction between respect and inferiority has become more and more insurmountable. At this time, Fei Yueer's words meant to them and drive them away.

Seeing the two of them pale, Xiao Ming smiled helplessly: "I testify for the queen, this is absolutely true."

Xiao Ming spoke, Aster and Luluo believed, and the panic gradually turned into joy.

The two have followed Xiao Ming for five years, and they have had a deep relationship with Xiao Ming. If they leave here one day, they don't know how to live.

In countless nights, they have also had such extravagant hopes, but they did not expect such extravagant hopes to become reality one day.

"Thank you, the emperor, thank you, empress." Aster and Luluo saluted with joy.

Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er also showed smiles, and he said to the two of them; "If you want to thank you, you have to thank the Queen Mother. Are you not going now?"

"Yes, the emperor." Luluo and Aster went to Ciren Palace happily.

Seeing the two walking away, Fei Yue'er glanced at Xiao Ming grotesquely and said: "Now the emperor doesn't have to go for a tryst with the two people in a few short intervals. The emperor can turn over the sign tonight."

Xiao Ming was suddenly a little embarrassed. Some things really couldn't hide the woman's golden eyes. During the period of Fei Yue'er's pregnancy, he really often met with two girls.

After all, Xiao Ming is a normal man, with some physical needs.

Hehe laughed twice, Xiao Ming said; "I don't turn anyone's brand, the queen is pregnant, and I want to stay with the queen."

Fei Yue'er heard the words and laughed while covering her mouth.

The next day, the canonization of Cui Xueer as the imperial concubine, and the will of Luluo and Aster as nobles were delivered to the three people. On that day, Cui Xueer entered the corridor and temporarily lived in the Chunhua Pavilion.

This Chunhua Pavilion is behind the dormitory of Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er. Xiao Ming can reach it by bypassing the small road from the dormitory.

After finishing this matter, Xiao Ming could be regarded as having troubles.

During the Northern War, King Huainan was very active. Not only did he succeed in destroying Yan Yan, he also took the initiative to participate in the attack on King Zhao.

Xiao Ming knew very well that the reason why King Huainan did this was to enable Xiao Ming to treat her daughter better.

But now that the war in the north has reached a critical juncture, Xiao Ming's decision to let Cui Xue'er enter the palace was also a reassurance for King Huainan, so that he could fight the enemy bravely on the battlefield.

"Congratulations to the emperor for holding a beautiful woman this time."

The first thing Cui Xueer did after entering the palace was to go to the Temple of Ciren to greet the empress dowager, and then she, Aster, and Luluo went to the dormitory to greet Fei Yue. Fei Yue had already met Cui Xueer earlier.

Fei Yue'er talked to him about Cui Xueer as soon as he came back from the Conference Hall.

"I don't believe that there are women who are more beautiful than the queen in this world." Xiao Ming's slick tongue, deeply influenced by contemporary culture, he is very skilled in coaxing his wife.

These words made Fei Yue'er feel sweet, and she said: "I'm afraid that the emperor will forget these words when he saw this Cui Xueer."

The two were talking when Qian Dafu suddenly walked over to Xiao Ming and said, "Emperor, Lu Tong, please."

"Lu Tong? Let him in."

Xiao Ming said lightly that Lu Tong has been busy with various chemical experiments during this time, and one of the experiments he ordered Lu Tong to do, which is the preparation of mercury fulminate.

After nearly five years of teaching, he now has a group of basic talents in his hands, but although these people have mastered some skills, sometimes they don't know where to start or what to study first.

So after Xiao Ming ascended the throne, he drew up a R&D plan, allowing technical talents such as Lu Tong, Lin Wenyao, Song Changping, Chen Qi to produce various scientific and technological items one by one according to the plan he listed.

In Lin Wentao it is a steam engine and a steam locomotive, while in Lutong it is mercury fulminate, the most basic firing medicine.

After all, smokeless gunpowder is just that if you upgrade your firearm to a firing gun, you must use this firing powder.

When it comes to government affairs, Xiao Ming no longer meets Lu Tong near the bedroom, but waits for him in the main hall.

After a while, Lu Tong appeared outside the main hall and walked towards Xiao Ming.

"See the emperor!" When he got closer, Lu Tong said with a bow.

Xiao Ming looked at Lu Tong, "Is there any progress when you come to see me this time?"

"The emperor has a brilliant plan. The next official is talking about mercury fulminate. This kind of firing drug has been successfully synthesized in the laboratory." Lu Tong said excitedly.

Xiao Ming smiled satisfied when he heard this. In 1799, ec Howard produced mercury fulminate, which was used to make flash hiders in 1814.

At this time, the flash hider is not used for metal fixed-load ammunition, but a separate flash hider to replace flint.

But even so, this also increases the firing speed of the gun a lot, because it eliminates the step of pouring gunpowder into the gunpowder pool.

And after the birth of the flash hider was the birth of the firing device and the birth of the post-loading gun, followed by the production of metal fixed-load bullets.

Now that Lu Tong has made it, for Xiao Ming, he can make a flash hider and a firing device to upgrade the flintlock rifle into the most primitive firing rifle, and increase the rate of fire of the flintlock.

It's just that the metal fixed-load ammunition is not possible for him, because even in contemporary countries that can produce bullets and artillery shells, it is said that there are only thirteen.

It is conceivable that the production of bullets and shells requires a strong enough industrial system~www.wuxiaspot.com~. For Xiao Ming, Qingzhou's industry has just started, and the production of metal fixed-loaded ammunition is as difficult as the sky.

"Yes, not bad." Xiao Ming smiled. Although the firing device can only increase the rate of fire and cannot change the range and power, it is also a huge improvement for him, because on the battlefield it is often because of being able to shoot two more shots. And win.

Lu Tong's expression was relaxed. This was the task that Xiao Ming gave him. Now that he had finished, a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

"The emperor, although the mercury fulminate is synthesized, it is only in the eyes of the lower officials that the mercury fulminate is a bit unstable and easy to explode. If you use this kind of thing on a gun, you need to pay attention to it."

Xiao Ming nodded, and he said: "Don't think your business is over. This mercury fulminate was developed, but you will have to help Song Changping to make a flash hat with mercury sulfate."

"Flash hat?" Lu Tong scratched his head. He didn't know anything about this kind of thing. After all, he was only responsible for synthesizing various things.

At this time, Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to bring paper and pen, and began to draw the structure of the flash hider on the paper stroke by stroke. At the same time, under the influence of the technology spar, Lu Tong gradually became clear about what a flash hider is.
