Chapter 386: Parting Ways

ther to make the poison. You may not know about the snake venom, but surely you know about those last three ingredients I mentioned”Dr. Liu was shocked. The three herbs she mentioned were indeed in hi...An Xuetang frowned, her voice cold and chilling, "It seems the emperor has showered Dayue Country with favors, they are so quick to make their move."

After he said that, he looked at Feng Ming, “Big brother, we don't have time. Let's plan the explosives first.”

According to Fo'er, the people of Dayue have already begun to make moves, so the development of explosives must be expedited as soon as possible.

"A-Tang, list these things out for me and have someone purchase them as soon as possible."

An Xuetang shook her head. "We can't purchase explosives so openly. After using them, they will definitely attract attention. Such powerful weapons would certainly be targeted by all sides."

As for what others would do after being targeted, one needn't ask An Xuetang.

Such a powerful and destructive thing, who wouldn't want to have it

Those people will certainly try every means to find out what it is.

If what they buy is found out, those people are not fools either. They will also conduct experiments based on the materials.

Although they may not be able to figure out the exact proportions of explosives in the short term, now that they know the ingredients, how far is it from actually making them

So An Xuetang had to find a way, she couldn't let them know what materials she had used.

An Xuetang fell silent for a moment, and who knew what she was thinking about. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Feng Ming, “Brother, I have a way.”

Feng Ming raised an eyebrow. "What do you want to do"

"Just like last time, we'll split into several groups to purchase materials. But this time, we need to add some unnecessary things when buying raw materials. And the thing I'm talking about that's unnecessary must be something that will definitely prevent the explosives from detonating if added."

As for what could prevent the explosives from going off, An Xue Tang had several ideas in mind. She would write down three of them later and have them added to the list of materials they were to purchase.

In this way, even if someone finds out later what she bought, they can be led in the wrong direction of research.

Both Fengming and Fu'er thought this was a good idea, and they both agreed.

An Xue Tang immediately wrote two lists, and gave one to Feng Ming:

"Brother, in the future, if you need to gather materials for the Seeking Tang Valley branch, please have them delivered directly to our secret base in the northern frontier. It's not very safe there because it used to be territory belonging to the Liji Sword Sect."

"In the future, if we need to make explosives, we'll have our Xuntanggu people handle it. They can produce them directly at the secret base in Xuntanggu. I don't trust giving the formula to anyone else. I'm also afraid there might be enemy spies in the Beijiang Army, so I don't plan on giving this formula to anyone outside of Xuntanggu."

Feng Ming narrowed her eyes, "You won't give the formula to Yun Yi and the others"

An Xuetang thought for a moment, "No. I don't plan to put these raw materials into the Beijang camp, so even if I gave them the formula, it wouldn't be much use."

She was worried that if the materials were placed in the Beijang military camp, they might be leaked by enemy spies if there really were any among them. She desperately wanted to keep the raw materials hidden.

Therefore, the things she had bought must not be transported back to Beijang camp.

Feng Ming put the list away, “As you wish, I’ll get it done right away.”

"Okay."

An Xuetang looked at Fu'er, “Fu'er, you and Xunluo as well as Shou'er, Kang'er, Ning'er, you few today will follow my recipe proportions to turn these materials into bombs.”

Fu'er nodded seriously, "This servant will obey."

An Xue Tang will call a few people outside in, and she'll personally demonstrate to them how to make this explosive pack.

She explained to them how much of each ingredient to use, using a wooden spoon for each one.

She didn't write down the recipe list. Fu’er and the others were all smart, and An Xuetang personally demonstrated how to prepare it once, and they all remembered it.

An Xuetang left them here to prepare explosives, and then she and Feng Ming returned to camp.

At this time, the camp atmosphere was somewhat tense. Everyone thought war was about to break out, so their moods were rather heavy.

When An Xuetang returned, Mo Junyi ran to her side, "Mother, you're back."

An Xue Tang raised her hand and rubbed his head, "Well, don't worry, mama has already thought of a way."

Mid-sentence, she glanced at Ding Hua and Yun Yi, "The two of you come with me."

Mo Junyi and the others can't follow.

An Xuetang handed the list separately to Yun Yi and Ding Hua, "Yun Yi, Ding Hua, the more complex and secret items on your procurement lists, the better. Be sure to do things discreetly and try to keep it hidden that these are being purchased by our Beijiang army."

Yunyue and Dinghua looked at each other, both with some confusion in their eyes. However, they took the list at this time, solemnly promising to accomplish it as soon as possible.

After explaining this, An Xuetang looked at Ding Hua, "Ding Hua, you must take care of what I told you a few days ago. Now that the Northern Border is about to go to war, your duty is not on the battlefield, so I command you to take Dong'er and Xiaoliu back now."

Ding Hua's face changed slightly, "Your Highness, the situation in Bei Jiang is severe now, I cannot leave."

"An Xue Tang shook her head, "You still haven't understood what I mean. The situation in Bei Jiang is indeed serious, but it won't lack you. Don't forget what you are responsible for, grain and grass... In warfare, the most important thing is grain and grass. The fact that I asked you to establish granaries in every city is very important. Just focus on doing this well."

Ding Hua naturally knew this, but at this moment the prince was not in Beijang. If Beijang was attacked by three parties, he might still be useful staying here.

He still wanted to say something, but Yun Yi spoke first, "Ding Hua, listen to the princess."

This is an order, which they cannot disobey.

Although Yun Yi didn't know what An Xue Tang was thinking.

In the end, Ding Hua could only agree and left with Dong'er and Xiao Liu.

Dongge'er and Xiao Liu knew they couldn't help much here, so when they heard to follow Ding Hua away, the two didn't object at all.

Before leaving, An Xuetang patted Dong Ge'er on the shoulder, "Dong Ge'er, my elder sister doesn't object to you entering Beijing, but you must learn to protect yourself. I will make arrangements with the Yun Family Army, and they will let you know if anything happens in the capital. If you need any help, please ask them."

"Okay, thank you, elder sister."

Also, if the Emperor finds out anything fishy, you should run. Don't hesitate. Don't carry any psychological burden. A martyr isn't supposed to act this way, do you know You have to be responsible for your parents.

When An Xuetang used to watch ancient Chinese dramas, she often saw people who offended the emperor ending up with their entire family being punished. However, she always found it strange that even though everyone knew about the consequence of "guilian jiuzong" (persecution extending to nine generations), nobody ever ran away.

Theoretically, with no IDs, photos, or surveillance cameras in ancient times, wouldn't it be easy to survive by running off to an unknown place

Only after she lived in this era did she realize that sometimes you can't just run away when you want to. It's hard to hide people these days, and whenever a stranger comes to this place, they are questioned. Everyone here is very insular.

Most importantly, information was cut off in this era. After the emperor issued an order, they didn't even know about it. Hundreds of people arrived quickly to arrest them, and they had no time to escape at all.

That's why she said that if there was any news about the Yun Army, they must tell her immediately. Just in case the Emperor found out something, as long as the Yun Army informed Dong Ge'er in time, Dong Ge'er and his parents could escape with the help of the Yun Army.
