Seeing the palace wall turn into rubble in front of him, Chang De finally realized the true power of the Heavenly Punishment. His tattered clothes were instantly drenched in sweat.
No one had thought that the power of the Heavenly Punishment would be so terrifying. The Princess was not exaggerating at all. Destroying the world, this was really destroying the world!
Just now, he even felt the ground under his feet shake.
When he thought that he wanted to experiment in the palace, cold sweat appeared on his forehead again.
If he really did that just now, the palace would definitely be destroyed. Even if something happened to His Majesty, it would not be enough for him, Chang De, to die ten thousand times!
For a moment, Chang De's heart was filled with deep gratitude towards the Princess.
At this time, dozens of armored guards had surrounded the place. Several eunuchs dressed in grey appeared beside Jing Emperor and looked around vigilantly.
Jing Emperor panted for a while and his breathing gradually stabilized. His face was still a little flushed. He waved his hand to shake off the guards who were supporting him and drove away the imperial doctor who was panting as he ran over. He strode towards the direction of the collapsed palace wall.
Looking at the gray and black ground and rubble, Jing Emperor was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he laughed out loud.
"Haha, what a Heavenly Punishment, what a Heavenly Punishment! With this divine object, it is enough to protect the stability of our Jing Kingdom for decades! "
A small black clay pot had such power that even the sturdy palace wall could not withstand the power of the Heavenly Punishment. It could be imagined that if a few dozen or even dozens of them attacked at the same time, it could really be said to be destroying the world. Under the power of the Heavenly Punishment, even the sturdy city wall would be easily destroyed like tofu.
The Jing Kingdom had been weak for a long time and there were strong enemies eyeing it. In these years, he had worked hard to manage a big country to the current situation it was in. It was not easy to find a moment of stability, but the torture of illness had become more and more serious. When he followed the late Emperor, it would be the time when the stability and peace of the Jing Kingdom would be disrupted.
Because of this, he often could not eat or sleep in peace. However, the appearance of such a national treasure was like a ray of light in the darkness, making him seem to see infinite hope.
With the Jing Country's current national strength, they didn't need to expand their territory or expand their territory, but with this object as a deterrent, it was likely that no one would dare to have any ideas about the Jing Country.
"This old servant congratulates His Majesty and the Jing Kingdom!"
Chang De had served Emperor Jing for decades. How could he not know what he was thinking? A smile also appeared on his wrinkled face. He knelt on one knee and said loudly.
Huala!
The surrounding guards immediately knelt down as well. Although they didn't know what was going on, they still knew what was going on. Their orderly and loud voices spread far and wide, resounding throughout the entire palace.
"Congratulations to His Majesty and the Jing Kingdom!"
"Congratulations to His Majesty and the Jing Kingdom!"
"Congratulations to His Majesty and the Jing Kingdom!"
…
…
"In the letter, MIngzhu said that this item can be used as a weapon to break a city. At the same time, it is also a treasure to kill enemies on the battlefield. The broken pieces of the jar are embedded in the wall. If it is used on the battlefield, it will immediately become a hell on earth." In the palace, Emperor Jing looked at the few jars on the table and nodded with satisfaction.
"Father, these are only used for testing. The real 'Sky Punishment' will be mixed with iron nails and pieces to increase its power. Once it explodes, there will be no survivors within three feet." MIngzhu pointed at the jar on the table and said.
Chang De heard this and took a deep breath.
Even the broken jars could be embedded in the wall. What kind of power was that? If it was an iron weapon …
If the 'Sky Punishment' that he ignited was like what the princess said, he would have been turned into a sieve by now.
An individual's martial strength was not worth mentioning in front of the power of heaven.
After being stunned for a moment, Emperor Jing's smile became wider. He said the word 'good' a few times in a row. Suddenly, a trace of sharpness appeared in his eyes. "Qi Kingdom, Qi Kingdom, the New Year is coming. I plan to give you a big gift. I hope you will like it …"
He seemed to have seen the scene of the Qi Kingdom's soldiers fleeing in panic in front of the Sky Punishment. He felt the depression that had accumulated in his heart for a long time was swept away. He turned to look at MIngzhu and asked, "How much does it cost?"
MIngzhu said respectfully, "Father, it is easy to make. The materials used are cheap and the cost is very low."
The Sky Punishment was powerful. Even if it was expensive to make, Emperor Jing would not give it up. Now that he heard that it was cheap, he was overjoyed. After thinking for a while, he looked at her and asked, "Who made it? Where is he now?"
A trace of hesitation flashed on MIngzhu's face, but it quickly disappeared. She said, "The one who made the Sky Punishment was a performer called Shen Liang in Qing 'an Prefecture. His ancestors were all cigarette makers. He accidentally discovered the formula of the Sky Punishment. After I learned about it, I immediately controlled him and brought him to the capital. The people of the Princess's Mansion also participated in the production of the Sky Punishment. However, only Shen Liang and I know the core formula."
Emperor Jing let out a long sigh of relief. The last trace of worry in his heart was gone.
"In the future, Shen Liang will be responsible for supervising the production of the Sky Punishment. He is not allowed to contact outsiders. I will send people to mark out a place outside the city for the research and development of the Sky Punishment. In addition, I will send 50 craftsmen and 1,000 imperial guards to the war zone. I want to see whether the soldiers of the Qi Kingdom are more powerful, or the power of the Jing Kingdom!"
Emperor Jing issued several orders in a row. When he looked back and saw the tired expression on his daughter's face, he said softly, "It has been hard on you. Go back and rest. I will leave the rest to you."
"Father, this is the formula of the Sky Punishment." MIngzhu nodded. She was indeed tired after the long journey. After offering the formula of the gunpowder, she slowly left the palace.
Emperor Jing took the formula and looked at it for a long time. He picked up a clay pot and carefully examined it in his hand.
Chang De personally felt the power and terror of this thing. He wanted to stay far away from this palace. When he saw the Emperor pick up the Sky Punishment, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty …"
Emperor Jing waved his hand and interrupted him. He also put the clay pot back to its original position.
"You are indeed the person I like. Li Yi, ah, Li Yi, I am really curious. How many blessings can you bring to the Jing Kingdom?" Emperor Jing said slowly. If MIngzhu was here, she would definitely be shocked by his words at this moment.
Chang De thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the matter of the Sky Punishment is unusual. Do you want to …"
Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "No need. MIngzhu will not choose the wrong person. I will not choose the wrong person either. Since there is a Shen Liang, there will definitely be a second and a third one … Pass down the order. Strictly prohibit the sale of saltpeter and sulfur. Let the government buy them all …"
After the order was issued, someone behind him immediately responded and walked out of the palace.
"MIngzhu has never lied to me before. This is the first time. You are more capable than I thought …" Thinking of the young man who talked to him in the garden of the Prince's Residence, a strange smile appeared on Emperor Jing's face. "How should I reward you for offering such an important weapon of the country … Forget it. It's almost the end of the year. I will let you be free for a few more days …"
After Emperor Jing muttered a few words to himself, he issued a few more orders.
