Chapter 210

Immediately after, Gao Yang said everything he knew in one go; these operations made the alchemists' originally fearful eyes suddenly light up.

They already loved refining things, and upon hearing that it could explode, they became even more excited.

Apart from the danger of death, passion can overcome everything!

After Gao Yang finished giving all his instructions, he specifically told the Gao family retainers to only watch from afar and never get close, before leaving the small courtyard.

Then, Gao Yang came to the front courtyard and saw Wu Zhao again.

It was just that Gao Feng and Gao Tianlong were also on the side; when Gao Yang appeared, both of their gazes looked over simultaneously.

What was this brat messing around with again?

"Junior Official Gao's speed is quite fast."

Wu Zhao took a sip of tea and spoke.

Gao Yang quickly said, "Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding of your subject. I have never been fast, but perhaps when facing Your Majesty, my speed might be a bit faster."

Gao Feng's eyes widened.

Gao Tianlong almost lost his breath.

Was it they who misunderstood Gao Yang?

It should be that they were thinking crookedly; this rebellious son wouldn't be so bold.

Wu Zhao raised her eyebrows, also feeling that these words were a bit strange.

But she didn't think too much about it and just said, "You have merit in pacifying Prince Rong this time. I will reward you with a more secluded villa. Doing these experiments in the Dingguo Duke Prefecture, as you said, might cause explosions or fires, which is ultimately not good."

Wu Zhao's words had an implied meaning.

After hearing this, Gao Yang thought for a moment and then nodded.

Having a residence of his own was not bad either.

"Your subject thanks Your Majesty. I will develop the gunpowder as quickly as possible. Only after gunpowder is created can we continue to develop based on it," Gao Yang said slowly.

"Continue to develop?"

Wu Zhao raised her estimation of Gao Yang in her heart again.

This Gao Yang not only has many vicious schemes but can also come up with various inventions; he is an absolute talent.

"Can I go and take a look?" Wu Zhao suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Gao Yang shook his head directly.

"Your Majesty, this must not be done. Developing gunpowder is too dangerous. Professional matters should be left to professional people; there is no need for us to go."

"At the beginning, if there are explosions or fires, it is very normal. It is better to avoid it if possible."

"I have told them that if they can create gunpowder, they will have their lives; if they cannot, according to the crimes they have committed, they are basically doomed to die. On one side is death, on the other is life with rewards. In order to survive, they will naturally fight with their lives."

Gao Yang added, "Moreover, I have already told these alchemists where the danger of this gunpowder lies; I have done my utmost."

"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Knowing that developing gunpowder is very dangerous, Your Majesty should not go."

Wu Zhao's expression was strange.

Only now did she realize the role of this batch of death-row prisoners and alchemists.

After all this, Gao Yang was just being a hands-off manager.

But she had to say that Gao Yang's method was really not bad.

Alchemists refine pills and study the proportions of various substances, which is indeed professional, and death-row prisoners will also choose to fight for a glimmer of hope.

"Your Majesty, it's mealtime. Would you like to eat something?"

Wu Zhao raised her eyebrows, "Eat Nine-Turn Intestines?"

These words made Gao Yang's body tremble, and he quickly said, "Your Majesty, how could I dare to tease you?"

If the positions of Wu Zhao and Prince Rong were swapped, he would never dare to do so; Wu Zhao truly had the ability to flip the table.

Wu Zhao had a smile on her face, "I'm not hungry."

"Your subject is hungry."

Wu Zhao: "..."
