Chapter 21 Presenting the Fire Gun Blueprint
"Wait a moment!"

Seeing that Yang Yanzhang was about to leave, Wu Zetian came back to his senses.

"do not go!"

After Wu Zetian swallowed, her voice became louder and stopped Yang Yanzhang.

"Does the Queen Mother still have wine? I think it's okay to drink another hundred jars."

Looking at Yang Yanzhang with a proud face, Wu Zetian bit her lip and snorted unwillingly: "There are only so many imperial wines in my collection. I have given you a discount tonight, but I got nothing! Yang Yanzhang, Do you think it fits?"

These words left Yang Yanzhang speechless.

To say it is appropriate is to seek death.

If it's not suitable, then don't you have to sacrifice your life?

Seeing his silence, Wu Zetian suddenly waved away the palace maids, leaving only Shangguan Wan'er alone.

"Yang Yanzhang, don't think that I have a crush on you! You mortals just love to dream! To tell you the truth, when I see you tonight, I have something to discuss with you!"

Wu Zetian suddenly regained his composure, and his eyes became clear and serious.

"You are a sensible person. I want to ask you a question. If I want to return the imperial power now, do you know what the result will be?"

Yang Yanzhang was stunned, he didn't expect her to ask such a question.

Could it be that Wu Zetian already regarded him as one of her own?

However, this kind of issue is a political choice. If you talk about it randomly, you will either die or your career will end.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Yanzhang began to talk endlessly.

"The Queen Mother is where she is today because of her own hard work."

"Although the Queen Mother has killed many opponents, I don't need to tell you that she can't kill all of them by killing them."

"If the Queen Mother gives up her current rights, then these people will definitely come back and confuse and force the emperor to kill the Queen Mother every day and help them take revenge!"

"If this is the case, the Queen Mother and the Emperor will fall into the tragedy of mother and son killing each other. They will be criticized and discussed for eternity!"

"Not only that! For the Queen Mother to be where she is today, she naturally has many supporters. Once you give up your current identity, they will also be in disaster!"

"If they are willing to die, that's all. If someone refuses to submit, they will definitely start an army and start a rebellion. Then the Tang Dynasty will fall into a catastrophe!"

Wu Zetian smiled with satisfaction after hearing this: "What you said makes sense! I can see that it's not just for flattery."

"The Queen Mother clearly knows that I have never acted in a flattering manner."

"Well, this is naturally a good thing. But since you understand this, you should know that if I don't ascend the supreme throne, I will have no peace and will not be able to govern the world with justice!"

Yang Yanzhang felt bitter in his heart, knowing that he had been unknowingly involved in Wu Zetian's usurpation of the throne.

"However, my position is not correct after all. I still need some miracles to prove that I am the chosen one!"

In fact, Yang Yanzhang could understand Wu Zetian's words very well.

Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism and built temples. This was because she wanted to spread her imperial appearance through Buddhism.However, the great monk Xue Huaiyi managed the White Horse Temple and had an affair with her. This made the plan of using Buddha's words to help her rise to power less perfect.

Moreover, now that Xue Huaiyi had been impeached and beheaded by Yang Yanzhang, Wu Zetian couldn't believe that other Buddhist disciples were willing to help, and did not dare to let them imitate Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's plan of hiding books in the belly of a fish during the uprising, or Liu Bang's plan of beheading Bai. lie.

"Queen Mother, although I understand what you said, I can't help you! If you want a miracle, you have to go find those monks."

Wu Zetian immediately became angry: "Shut up! Xue Huaiyi was killed because of you, and it is your duty to help me! Besides, who said you can't help me? I think the juggling you did during the day was pretty good."

Yang Yanzhang immediately understood that Wu Zetian was thinking of writing nonsense like "God's destiny belongs to Wu Zetian" on the white water, and then poured carrot juice on it to reveal it, in order to fool the officials and the people.

To be honest, this method is good, but the problem is that I have already performed it in front of hundreds of officials, so it is not easy to use.

"Your Majesty, the civil and military officials are not fools. People have seen what they did during the day. If you show it again, it will be man-made, not God's will! It's useless!"

"Then you give me a different set of acrobatics! Anyway, you must find a way for me to do it!"

Wu Zetian clenched her fists, showing her domineering attitude!
Shangguan Wan'er obviously didn't expect Wu Zetian to push Yang Yanzhang so hard, and couldn't help but persuade her: "Queen Mother, this kind of thaumaturgy is already very impressive. Yang Yushi is so smart, but I'm afraid he's not that capable!"

"Shut up! If you don't advance against the current, you will retreat! If I can't go up, I will be destroyed sooner or later, and you won't be able to escape by then! If I don't force this smart man to find a way, how can I rely on you and me to support ourselves?"

Shangguan Wan'er didn't dare to speak anymore and could only continue to look at Yang Yanzhang worriedly.

However, Yang Yanzhang did not panic.

I thought about it and smiled.

"Why are you laughing? Are you scared?" Wu Zetian frowned.

"Queen Mother, why are you obsessed with these gods and goddesses? If you are really ready to take the throne, then I have a magical weapon for the Queen Mother. With this item, not to mention the subjects of the Tang Dynasty, even the barbarians from all over the world will be frightened. They are trembling, no one dares to be disobedient!"

Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What kind of magical weapon can scare those barbarians? Yang Yanzhang, if you dare to deceive me, I will no longer let you be an official, but let you serve in the palace!"

After shuddering, Yang Yanzhang hurriedly reached into his arms, took out the blueprint of the gun, and handed it over himself.

"Fire...well, what is the word for this? I don't recognize it..."

A flash of embarrassment flashed across Wu Zetian's face.

"Gun! Fire gun!" Yang Yanzhang quickly reminded.

"A blueprint of a fire gun? Is this the artifact you are talking about? I'm sorry your artifact is just a picture and not a real object??"

Seeing that Wu Zetian was very dissatisfied, Yang Yanzhang hurriedly explained: "This thing requires skilled craftsmen. In the past, Xiaguan was just a poor man who had no money to hire people to make it! But if the Queen Mother can allocate some manpower to me, I can make it in a few days." Make this thing!”

"Then what's so great about this thing? Why is it called a divine weapon?"

Yang Yanzhang suddenly realized at this time that the effective range of the fire gun was only fifty steps, and the longest range was only a hundred steps. In addition to being very noisy, the actual effect may not be much better than that of a bow and arrow.

A single fire gun may not be able to intimidate anything. To say it is a magical weapon is a bit exaggerated.

But he immediately thought that he already had the blueprints for the artillery. Isn't it just a matter of one sentence to build the artillery?

Isn't an oversized firecracker just an artillery piece?

The artillery has a range of several miles and is as loud as thunder. It is also very effective. If you build one, it will definitely scare everyone. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a divine weapon!
