ion, named Chen Shaohao. Li Chen had even seen his previous exam papers, which were considered excellent, so it was well-deserved for him to secure a spot in the palace examination.It's a pity that he...Chapter 943: The Grenades of the Qin Empire

"Your Highness, Prince of Qin, what is this"

When Emperor Hongji Tian saw Song Yingxing carefully unwrapping layer after layer, then holding up a pitch-black object, he was puzzled and asked:

Li Chen smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, you'll see it soon."

Saying that, Li Chen motioned to Song Yingxing to hand him the thing.

This scared Song Yingxing half to death. As the inventor, he knew how powerful this seemingly unremarkable thing was, powerful enough to send everyone in the Xizheng Hall packing.

"Your Highness, it's not advisable. This object is incredibly powerful, one must be extremely cautious. Perhaps...perhaps I could demonstrate"

Seeing Song Yingshen's terrified and begging appearance, Li Chen was speechless.

The concept he proposed, and as someone who travelled through time, wouldn't he know the power of a grenade

And as for the level of gunpowder refinement in Qin dynasty now, this thing probably wouldn't even have one-third the power of a genuine grenade.

But even so, it is enough.

You have to understand, this is the era of cold weapons. A grenade thrown out there would be like a thunderbolt from heaven.

"Alright, alright."

Although Song Yingxing had good intentions, Li Chen didn't press him.

"Come, go with this palace."

Li Chen took the lead, walking out of the Xizheng Palace and arriving at the Donggong martial arts field.

The Qin Dynasty was a dynasty gained through military might. As the residence of the crown prince, the East Palace had both the Xizheng Hall for studying civil administration and the martial arts field for practicing martial arts.

But Li Chen simply didn't have the talent for this. He had only been to the martial arts arena a handful of times.

This place is big enough that you could even ride a horse around it several times.

The three members of the Emperor's Extreme Heaven were puzzled, following Li Chen here. They still hadn't figured out what he was trying to do.

"Here you go."

Li Chen extended his hand to Song Yingxing.

This first grenade, of course, should be thrown by myself to get the most enjoyment out of it.

Song Yingxing's face turned bitter, but seeing the unquestionable expression on the prince's face, he had no choice but to carefully hand the thing in his hand to Li Chen.

"Your Highness, this is a pin. Before you throw it out, you must first pull it..."

Before Song Yingxing could finish his sentence, Li Chen retorted with a huff, “The design drawings were all given to you by this palace. Could this palace not know”

"Yes, yes, Your Highness is right," Song Yingxing replied hastily.

After taking the grenade, Li Chen turned his head and smiled at Huangji Tian. Under the latter's puzzled gaze, he pulled out the pin and then whirled it around with all his might before throwing it forward.

Just as the three of them in Huangji Tian were still staring blankly at the trajectory of the grenade, Li Chen and Song Yingxing had already run away.

"Your Highness, Prince of Qin, why are you so panicked"

The words of the Emperor Extreme Heaven have just landed....

Boom!!!

A deafening explosion, like the earth splitting apart, sent a plume of black smoke billowing into the sky. Shrapnel whizzed through the air, and everything within a radius of several dozen meters was instantly riddled with holes.

Huangji Tian was completely stunned.

And his two attendants, obviously masters of martial arts, immediately stood before Emperor Jiutian the moment the explosion sounded.

This group of people was at least tens of meters away from the blast point, but even so, they could feel a shockwave coming. Although it was within a safe range and ordinary people could endure it, it showed just how powerful the explosion at the center was.

Staring blankly at a tree about seven meters from the center, its trunk pockmarked with dozens of tiny round holes made by steel ball bullets. The entire tree swayed precariously. Huangji Tian felt a shiver run down his spine, and a wave of cold washed over him from head to toe.as nothing to do with me."Almost immediately following Zhao Qinglan's words, Su Jinpa said, "Perhaps it has nothing to do with the Empress, but it must have something to do with Zhao Xuanji."Zhao Qing...
