My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 330 Intention to Kill the King
No one knew the situation in the imperial study better than Li Zheng. Although he didn't feel the steaming heat, he could clearly feel two completely different temperatures separated by the door after entering the room.

Although there was a fire outside to keep warm, it was still in the cold air, and the heat loss was quite serious, so naturally I couldn't feel the obvious temperature.

Li Zheng glanced at the two tall bamboo tubes and the two cast-iron coal stoves by the front window: "Liu Aiqing, are these things warming up my imperial study?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, that's exactly the case. All the five stoves burn black stones. After a long time, the temperature is high. I don't know if it is hundreds of times stronger than charcoal. Moreover, this coal stove can not only keep warm, but also boil water for cooking. Appropriately, a small briquette can use as much poison as three bundles of firewood.”

Young Master Liu, who was explaining, suddenly noticed that Li Zheng was looking at him angrily, and a group of concubines also backed away tightly, avoiding the hot coal stove like a tiger.

Zhou Fei, the chief executive, pointed at Liu Mingzhi with trembling fingers: "Liu Mingzhi is so bold that he intends to kill the king. Someone, take it down."

A group of imperial guards rushed into the imperial study room in an orderly manner, holding the Yanling knife in their hands, and surrounded Young Master Liu tightly.

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged, I absolutely have no intention of killing the king."

After a short period of absent-mindedness, Liu Mingzhi knelt on the ground with a plop, fearing that he would be hacked to death by these guards at the emperor's order, and his blood would splash on the spot.

An Gou'er also knelt on the ground in panic, her forehead was tightly pressed, not daring to make the slightest movement.

Li Zheng glanced at the imperial guards coldly: "Stand back."

The imperial guards put away their sabers without hesitation, and quickly exited the imperial study room, but they did not go far away, and all stood outside the door waiting for orders.

Li Zhengduan sat on the dragon chair and stared at Liu Mingzhi with cold eyes: "Everyone knows that burning black stones in a room can kill people. Liu Aiqing, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise you intend to kill the king. Kill the Nine Clans."

"Your Majesty, burning black stones can indeed kill people, but I have absolutely no courage to intend to kill the king. If I really intend to kill the king, why would I just bring Jiang He into this forbidden place alone? If I really intend to Kingslayer, how could you tell that what is burning is a black stone, I am really wronged."

Li Zheng's eyes gradually calmed down, and Young Master Liu heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that the feeling of being stared at by a tiger was gone.

It turns out that the previous amiable emperor was just his side, and this side that can control life and death with a single word is his original aura.

"Give me an explanation."

"Your Majesty, if this black stone is burned directly, it can indeed kill people, but I exhausted the deadly smoke outside through the bamboo tube. As long as the black smoke does not permeate the room, the black stone will not only do no harm at all, but will be a kind of poison." The supreme sharp weapon, as long as you master it well, not only can be used by civilians, but it can also upgrade my dragon's military equipment to a higher level. It can easily forge a hundred refined steel without consuming a lot of manpower and material resources. If it is really harmful, Depending on the burning time of the black stone, His Majesty should have symptoms of shortness of breath, but does His Majesty feel any discomfort now?"

Li Zheng signaled Zhou Fei to go out and see where the bamboo tube was.

After a while, Zhou Fei came back and murmured a few words next to Li Zheng: "Your Majesty, Lord Liu is right, there is indeed a puff of black smoke coming out of the bamboo tube."

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"This black stone can really make steel?"

"Exactly, I absolutely dare not boast, this black stone"

"This is not the court, so I won't talk about these things. When the time comes, you can write a memorial and submit it."

Liu Mingzhi, who was about to tell how to use black stone to make steel, was interrupted by the emperor. He glanced at the emperor subconsciously, and saw him scanning the concubines next to him. Liu Mingzhi immediately understood that the emperor didn't want to use the steel. Let the concubine know the key.

There are many people in the harem, and the concubines are inextricably linked to their natal families. Behind each noble concubine represents a party of honor, and steelmaking is a country's most important weapon. If it is leaked, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing.

The most important thing is that the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, and talking about political affairs in front of concubines is not what the emperor wants to see.

"The minister obeys the order."

"It's because I misunderstood you. I am very satisfied with the warmth you gave me, but next time I have something to tell me in advance, otherwise what really happened is not what I want to see, nor is it what you want to see ,Understand?"

"Yes, I know, I will definitely report to His Majesty in advance."

"Tell me what this is?"

"Your Majesty, this is a hot pot. After I made it, I was not willing to use it. I immediately thought of sending it to Your Majesty. I will always put Your Majesty first in my heart."

Li Zheng and a group of concubines looked at Young Master Liu strangely. Although it is not uncommon for officials to flatter them, others are also scholars who want face. Flattering is also a subtle expression of admiration for the emperor, like Young Master Liu Straightforward, such a straightforward flattery has never been seen before.

Li Zheng felt a little embarrassed, and really didn't know how to say it.

"Hot pot? How do you use it? Could it be that the pot is made of fire?"

"This?" Why is the emperor's brain circuit so clear: "Your Majesty, this hot pot is for eating. It is cold in winter, even if it is a hot dish, it will become chilly in a moment. After eating, it is easy to damage the stomach, but this hot pot is different, you can eat it while cooking to ensure that the heat of the food does not dissipate, and the whole body can generate heat after eating."

Li Zheng looked at the hot pot in front of him in confusion: "Is it so magical? It happens that I haven't eaten yet, so you prepare a pot of hot pot for me. I want to see if it is so magical!"

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, how can Mr. Liu prepare meals?" Empress Nangong Meng reminded the emperor in due time.

"I'm confused, so I sent the imperial cook from the imperial dining room to the imperial study."

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to do with you. You are a man of the Great Dragon, and you are the ghost of the Great Dragon. Even if you throw your head and blood for Your Majesty, I will never frown. Let alone preparing a meal, I am willing to serve Your Majesty." A dog's work."

Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi resentfully, although this flattery sounded comfortable, but it was too straightforward, which made me a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, I made this hot pot. No one knows how to use it except me. Please give me a chance to dedicate myself."

"Since Liu Aiqing has such a strong heart, it's up to you to prepare."

"Jiang He, bring in the ingredients prepared in the box."

The reason for preparing these is that Young Master Liu adheres to the principle of cannibalism. When the time comes to discuss the coal business, the emperor should not be straightforward and directly veto it.

After all, eating and drinking is easy to do.

A group of people looked at Young Master Liu who was so busy, all of them looked strange. The majestic lord condescended to do such a thing. He was really a lord who behaved abnormally.
