Chapter 1247: Chapter 1247: Side Story: This Lady Wants to Go to the Qing Building to Relieve Boredom
Xiao Jun’an saw Huo Yuning’s arrogant expression, as if she was waiting for him to come begging to her.
His handsome and indifferent face broke into a warm smile, and his tone became much gentler as he asked directly, "Do you possess this weapon called ’explosive’? Can you supply one for every Daqian soldier?"
Huo Yuning widened her eyes, and with a twitch at the corner of her lips, said, "Dude, are you joking? One for each person, and the whole world would probably go up in flames!"
Xiao Jun’an, upon hearing this, showed not fear but a suppressed excitement and exhilaration in his eyes.
If Daqian had such a powerful weapon, unifying the world would be just around the corner!
After the wars ended, the common people would no longer suffer the pain of being displaced from their homes.
He wouldn’t have to hear in the court every day, after every battle, how many sons of Daqian had been sacrificed.
Huo Yuning saw every expression on Xiao Jun’an’s face.
Her red lips slowly curved up, her delicate eyebrows and eyes slightly raised, as if she looked down on everything in this era.
Explaining the lethality of firearms to ancient people and seeing the emperor’s face filled with disbelief gave her a tremendous sense of achievement.
Xiao Jun’an stepped closer to Huo Yuning, his gentle eyes intently gazing at her, as if looking at a beloved.
His voice was low and magnetic, carrying an air of authority that brooked no argument, "An beauty, I want ’explosive’. State your terms!"
No matter the cost, the Daqian Dynasty had to obtain such a formidable weapon.
As for why Xiao Jun’an did not doubt Huo Yuning,
It was because he knew that the key to resolving the current crises of the Daqian Dynasty lay with this woman.
He had never heard nor seen the weapons Huo Yuning spoke of.
But that did not hinder their existence.
When Huo Yuning described the power of those weapons, the arrogance and satisfaction on her face were all clearly seen by him.
Only those who had truly possessed such things would display such a proud and genuine attitude.
Seeing that the dog Emperor finally asked for her help, Huo Yuning’s beautiful eyes narrowed into crescent moons.
A sly smile appeared on her face, and with her hands behind her back, she circled around Xiao Jun’an.
She spoke leisurely, "Getting the weapon isn’t difficult, but you have to charm me first. I wonder what the Qing Building looks like in this era? Why don’t you take me for a visit?"
Her eyes shone brightly at Xiao Jun’an, brimming with hopeful radiance.
Tuo Qing, kneeling beside them, tried to object subconsciously as before.
But when she looked up, she met Huo Yuning’s cool and slightly deep eyes, and Tuo Qing’s slightly open lips immediately closed.
Her identity had been exposed, and right now, she had no place to speak.
Upon hearing Huo Yuning’s request, Xiao Jun’an’s handsome face momentarily showed cracks in his expression, a mix of shock and speechlessness.
A woman going to the Qing Building, what kind of propriety was that!
Nevertheless—
Xiao Jun’an, thinking of the weapon that could unify Daqian under one rule, found his excited heart unable to calm down.
He pressed his fist to his lips and coughed lowly.
When Huo Yuning looked over, his gaze was steady, and in a gentle voice, he said, "No problem, shall we go tonight?"
Xiao Jun’an was eager to please the woman in front of him, to obtain what he desired as soon as possible.
"It couldn’t be better!"
Huo Yuning was happy, her palm-sized face beaming with a brilliant smile.
In the modern era, there was nothing she hadn’t played with or made a mess of.
The ancient Qing Building was a unique feature, and she wanted to experience it.
Xiao Jun’an didn’t waste any time either, his face expressionless as he turned to Anjin.
The warmth in his eyes faded, replaced by a hint of coldness, and he ordered in a serious tone, "Anjin, prepare personally. Tonight, I will leave the palace with An beauty!"
