After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 226 Thunder God, help me! Local tyrants and evil gentry!
[A group of pale and thin people. ]

[Can you snatch the food that keeps you alive from the government? ]

[Even ordinary people can know that this is impossible! ]

【"because."】

[“Officers and soldiers are not vegetarians.”]

【“They may not be able to deal with foreign enemies.”】

[“But it’s more than enough to deal with the common people!”]

【Cannot rule outsiders.】

[I still can’t cure you?! ]

[This sentence refers to these officers and soldiers! ]

【even.】

【You can say that.】

[When facing and dealing with the people, they are more professional than anyone else! ]

【"otherwise."】

【“If it were just a group of ordinary people.”】

【“They can all rob the government of its grain.”】

[“Then someone has already succeeded in the rebellion. Why is it still the Cheng Kingdom’s world now?”]

【Chen Huaixin looked into the distance.】

[Of course he is aware of this.]

【And this rebellion. 】

[He never thought of relying on the people who couldn't even get enough food to eat to achieve success! ]

[These people are more likely to create momentum and tear down the peaceful situation that Chengguo whitewashed! ]

[“As for the real rebellion.”]

[“That’s exactly…”]

[“That’s the thing that makes the Taoist furnace explode frequently!”]

【Chen Huaixin looked towards the Taoist temple master.】

【Since you want to rebel. 】

[Of course you have to prepare. ]

[After talking with the Taoist temple master, he found the raw materials for making gunpowder from the temple. If sugar wasn't extremely precious nowadays, he would have wanted to mix some sugar into it.]

【So. 】

[No need for anything else.]

【Just throw the explosives out. 】

[It is enough to flatten Julu County! ]

【"but."】

[“Now it’s OK.”]

[“This gunpowder may not be very powerful.”]

[“But what if it is a magic?!”]

【Chen Huaixin looked at the Taoist temple master.】

[As they led a large group of people towards the city gate of Julu County. ]

[The people guarding the city naturally discovered them and notified the authorities immediately.]

[“I knew it.”]

[“This Taoism has long had ulterior motives!”]

[“Now that so many unruly people have gathered here, they must be here to cause trouble!”]

[“Notify the county lieutenant and have him lead the troops to eliminate them!”]

[After the county magistrate learned of this, he naturally considered them to be troublemakers who wanted to rebel.]

【Or rather. 】

【In this cold and freezing season. 】

【He came to the city gate with a large group. 】

[Could it be that they want to come and pay their respects to each other? And then go back to their own homes and their own mothers? ]

[Except for causing trouble! For example, begging for food, or begging for clothes, there is absolutely no other possibility! ]

[As for my own wrong guess? So what? They are just a bunch of ordinary people anyway. It would be less troublesome if they died! ]

[“I thought there were too many people.”]

[“Will I surrender?”]

【"snort!"】

[“If everyone follows suit, if everyone is like this.”]

[“Then how should I carry out my work and how should I shepherd the people for Your Majesty?”]

[“Do you still want to maintain my dignity?!”]

[The county magistrate had a look of disdain on his face.]

[If someone spoke nicely and knelt down to beg him, he might be kind enough to throw some melons and dates to help one or two lucky people get through the winter.]

[After all, the government officials sometimes show mercy to others.]

[But like now, without even saying hello, he privately summoned so many people. This kind of thing of forcing the emperor to abdicate will only make him more angry! ]

[After hearing the order from the county magistrate, the county lieutenant led his officers and soldiers without saying a word, ready to show off his power among those unruly people! ]

【This is the season now.】

【But there is not much entertainment.】

[Why not just use these unruly people to stretch their muscles and add some fun! ]

[But just as he led his troops out of the city gate, he was surprised to find that the man standing in front of the unruly people was muttering something, just like a Taoist performing a ritual.]

[This made him laugh out loud, and the officers and soldiers behind him laughed at him.]

[“What is that old Taoist priest saying?”]

[“Is it true that you have been burning incense and worshipping Buddha all day long, and have driven yourself crazy?”]

[“Burning incense and worshipping Buddha is a Buddhist practice, not a Taoist one. He must be dancing like a shaman and gone crazy!”]

[“Shaman dance is not Taoism, right? Never mind, they are all the same, just pure idiots!”]

【“…”】

[The county lieutenant and soldiers of Julu County were mocking.]

[The people behind Chen Huaixin were also stunned.]

【Although.】

【They all drank the magic water. 】

[But everyone knows that thing is fake! ]

【But now this Heavenly Master...】

【What is he doing again? ! 】

[Some people began to feel like retreating.]

【But most of them are still very determined. 】

【after all.】

【Back off.】

【That means waiting to die! 】

【It’s better to give it a try! 】

[“Even if the Heavenly Master is crazy, we can still take down the officers and soldiers, right?”]

[Old Chen looked at the soldiers not far away. He didn't know whether it was because of the cold weather or because of fear, but his body couldn't help but tremble. However, his legs remained standing, without any intention of retreating! ]

[Ji Changxi looked confused. She looked at Chen Huaixin and was about to say something.]

[The officers and soldiers from Julu County seemed impatient and rushed towards them! ]

[This shocked Ji Changxi! ]

[The faces of the people are full of fear! ]

【but. 】

【At this moment.】

【Chen Huaixin suddenly stopped, looked at the soldiers, pointed forward, and spoke in an extremely clear voice.】

[“Thunder God, help me!”]

[“Boom!”]

[As soon as he finished speaking.]

[An explosion occurred among the officers and soldiers, and several of them fell to the ground on the spot! ]

【Suddenly.】

[Let alone Ji Changxi and the people behind them. ]

[Even the officers and soldiers, as well as the county lieutenant in charge, were all stunned.]

[They were shocked at first, then looked at the officers and soldiers lying on the ground, wailing, and their expressions suddenly turned into fear! ]

[Only the county lieutenant was able to remain somewhat calm, and looked at Chen Huaixin with forced composure.]

【but. 】

【With another roar of thunder, help me. 】

[Another roar sounded. ]

[His calmness immediately disappeared, and he became more frightened than anyone else! ]

[“The demon… the demon… has some magic!!!”]

[The county lieutenant shouted loudly, escorted the officers and soldiers to his front, and ran towards the city gate.]

[And the people following behind Chen Huaixin, from their previous confusion, became pleasantly surprised! ]

[They looked at Chen Huaixin, their eyes no longer filled with doubt, but shock and...admiration!]

【"turn out to be."】

[“Heavenly Master.”][“He really knows immortal magic!!!”]

……

Looking at the deduced picture.

The expressions of the ministers outside the Golden Palace did not change at all.

After all, they had long known about the existence of this earth-shaking thing.

"only."

"did not expect."

"At that time, Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess."

"When I first saw this earth-shaking thing, I could guess that it might be related to the explosion of the alchemy furnace."

"It seems that her talent in science and her ability in technology are innate!"

Many ministers still remember that Ji Changxi had once guessed that the earth-shaking thing came from the Taoist's alchemy furnace, and now it has been confirmed that her guess... was actually correct!
This talent.

This talent.

Naturally, this aroused the envy of many officials.

But they also know that such things cannot be obtained.

And being able to know the approximate composition of gunpowder is already a very good thing!

Even the officials from the aristocratic families had their eyes light up at this moment, and they thought to themselves that after the deduction, they would go and capture a few Taoists to see if they could create that earth-shaking thing!
“Even after the deduction.”

"My family will fall from grace."

"But as long as the research is successful."

"But as long as we can make gunpowder."

"Then let's..."

"Not lost yet!"

These officials from aristocratic families pinned their own future on gunpowder.

After all, they are a noble family. If they knew the specific methods, they would definitely be able to figure it out earlier than anyone else, including the imperial court!
Chen Huaixin was able to use the earth-shaking object to conquer the entire Cheng Kingdom in the beginning, so it shouldn't be difficult for them to use it to protect themselves, right?!

These officials from aristocratic families thought like this in their hearts.

And as they continued to watch the deduction with calm expressions.

The people from all over Chengguo, as well as the local officials, had expressions of shock on their faces.

For gunpowder.

For explosion.

Of course, they were seeing it for the first time!
It was just like the reaction of the court officials back then.

When I saw that this magic that should have belonged to immortals appeared in the hands of ordinary people.

They were shocked from the bottom of their hearts, and also felt admiration and fanaticism for Chen Huaixin from the bottom of their hearts!

"This man who was deduced is definitely an immortal!"

"Only an immortal can do this, to trigger the thunder from the sky to kill those officers and soldiers!"

"Immortal! Please save us! You are so merciful! Please let us live!"

"..."

Many people knelt on the ground again.

They have a low level of cultural education and are deeply influenced by past thoughts. Their respect, awe and worship for immortals are naturally engraved in their bones.

Their ancestors once told them that they should kneel down when they met an immortal, and this naturally became deeply rooted in their minds.

They didn't think there was anything shameful about this, after all, he was an immortal, and no one told them to stand up.

They knelt there, muttering something, hoping to get the blessing of the immortals.

And besides them.

There are some such people.

Something feels slightly wrong!
"because."

"The man just now was called Chen Huaixin."

"He seemed to say that this thing was related to the explosion of the alchemy furnace?"

"That means……"

"Isn't this the method of an immortal?!"

These people frowned and thought so in their hearts.

but.

They couldn't produce any evidence.

I wouldn't dare to say that the explosion was not caused by magic under the current circumstances!
Otherwise, the fanatical people around would definitely beat them to death!
As they watched the deduction, they hoped very much that the explosion was related to Chen Huaixin!
"This way."

"No, it's equal to."

"Can we mortals also master the power of immortals?"

"We mortals don't need to pray to the immortals... we can still live a good life!"

……

【When explosives are regarded as magic. 】

[This rebellion was naturally extremely successful.]

【after all.】

[Even the county magistrate, who was standing on the city wall and watching how the county lieutenant dealt with the mob, was frightened by the explosion and nearly fell off the city wall.]

[How could the soldiers and guards around here not be terrified? ]

【Especially.】

【Seeing.】

[The county magistrate packed up his gold and silver and took his concubine with him, seemingly ready to flee.]

[They ran faster than each other, as if they were afraid of being left behind! ]

【“That way.”】

[“It will definitely be that immortal magic…demon magic.”]

[“He was killed by lightning!”]

[These people thought this in their hearts.]

【And Chen Huaixin did not try to stop him.】

【because.】

[There aren't many raw materials in that Taoist temple.]

[Nature can't make too much explosives. ]

[If this were not the case, he wouldn't have to play tricks on me and scare these people by pretending that the Thunder God was helping me! ]

[“Just go wherever you want and blow it up.”]

【“That way.”】

[“Even if a large army approaches.”]

[“You can also be fearless.”]

【Chen Huaixin ignored the officials who were fleeing or hiding.】

[He led the people who followed him and found the government warehouse used for storage.]

[As the door opened, a small but not insignificant amount of food appeared before everyone's eyes.]

【For the people today. 】

【Even if it's just a little bit of food. 】

[It's enough to make them excited. ]

【Not to mention. 】

[The food in front of them can at least feed this group of people for half a month! ]

【But Chen Huaixin's brows slightly wrinkled.】

【“It seems.”】

[“The county magistrate didn’t lie completely.”]

[“There really aren’t many reserves in this county!”]

【Chen Huaixin calculated in his mind.】

[The Taoist temple master and Ji Changxi beside them also had similar expressions.]

[They can all figure out that the food stored in Julu County is not enough to distribute to all the people! ]

【“Or rather.”】

[“It can benefit all the people.”]

[“I can eat porridge for a day or two.”]

【"But……"】

[“This is still too little!”]

[Since they have already rebelled, they must be hoping to get as much as possible! ]

[The food we have now can only keep us full for a few days, what's the point of that! ]

【"so."】

[“It’s still necessary.”]

[“Find a way to get more food!”]

[“There are also clothes that can last through the winter!”]

【"At least……"】

[“Let’s reduce the number of people who die of starvation and freezing!”]

【Chen Huaixin thought so.】

【And in Julu County. 】

[Except the government.]

[“Only those local tyrants and evil gentry have enough food!”]
