Spring comes to the desperate place

Chapter 393 University

Almost as soon as Cai Sheng took it out, Song Chunlin discovered that the version in his hand should be the latest one. Although it was still simple, it would not deviate too far from the target when thrown out, unlike the batch he took away at the beginning, whose accuracy was so poor that he wanted to complain to Cai Sheng.

This was not the first time that Cai Sheng tested his own results. Seeing a large water tank in the distance, he estimated it with his eyes and silently took a few steps forward.

There was no way. He was not a martial artist and his arm strength was not good enough. The water jar prepared by Gu Fengyun was too far away and he could not throw it that far.

Everyone behind him was looking forward to seeing what good stuff they could come up with, but because there were too many people, Cai Sheng was stared at and his whole body became stiff. His back was covered in sweat, and his palms were so slippery that he couldn't hold the grenade at all. It almost slipped from his hands several times. He was so scared that his scalp went numb, and he thought he was going to die here.

Song Chunlin really couldn't bear to watch it anymore. Cai Sheng was too nervous. He was really afraid that his water tank would not explode but he would be blown up instead. So he stepped forward and bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I am sorry for the insolence."

After saying this, without waiting for the emperor to speak, he walked towards Cai Sheng, stood behind Cai Sheng, and snatched the grenade directly from his hand.

"Who! Young Master Song?" Cai Sheng was shocked.

Song Chunlin nodded slightly at him: "Leave it to me."

The determination and calmness in Song Chunlin's eyes made Cai Sheng feel more at ease.

The emperor and his men could not hear what the two men said. They could only see Song Chunlin take the hammer-like thing from Cai Sheng. He pulled the fuse at the bottom and threw it out without aiming. The grenade drew a parabola in the air and then fell accurately into the water tank. Then a dull sound was heard, like thunder, and it exploded in the water tank.

A large water tank filled with water was blown into pieces. Due to the huge power, it even shattered the water tanks next to it.

The sudden explosion shocked the ministers. They shouted that there was an assassin and wanted to protect the emperor. Only the two brothers of the Gu family stood still.

"Okay, okay, don't be so startled." The emperor impatiently asked the imperial guards to disperse.

Only then did Gu Fengyun come up and congratulate the emperor.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. With this grenade, why worry about the barbarians causing trouble?"

The emperor's eyes lit up with joy: "Are you saying that the noise just now was caused by the grenade?"

"That's right, Your Majesty. Although the accuracy of this grenade is not easy to control, when two armies are facing each other, as long as you throw it hard into the enemy camp, you don't have to worry about not hitting anyone. As for the power... it is a little small, but Cai Sheng has more powerful bombs. The palace is not suitable for demonstration."

"More powerful? How much more powerful can it be?"

"It can blast mountains and rocks. If it falls into a crowd, no one can escape unscathed."

The emperor became even happier after hearing this, and asked Gu Fengyun how many of these things he could make. Gu Fengyun called Cai Sheng back.

"Your Majesty, Cai Sheng is in charge of the explosives matter, so let him talk to you."

Cai Sheng stood on the ground a little stiffly, answering the emperor's questions honestly. He answered whatever the emperor asked. Although he was nervous, he relaxed after seeing that the emperor's mood was getting better and better.

The emperor looked at those ministers who advocated letting the barbarians and the Jin people kill each other, and said with a smile: "My dear ministers, my Dajing now has such a powerful weapon. It is really God's blessing for Dajing."

This meant agreeing to the barbarians' request for peace. These people looked at each other, then knelt down in unison and shouted "Long live the emperor!"

“God bless Dajing!”

After the court meeting, Song Chunlin felt that he was more tired than killing a thousand barbarians. On the way back, he lay in the carriage without any image. The carriage moved forward and stopped many times before finally returning to the marquis' mansion.

At this moment, Gu Fengyue and Gu Fengyun were still in the palace, and he was the only one who came back first. Seeing that he was the only one there, Su Fuqing asked a question.

"Oh, my brother and Gu Fengyue are discussing something with the emperor. I don't think they will be back for a while. Sister-in-law, you don't have to wait for them. Let's eat first. I'm so hungry."

Su Fuqing watched him holding his stomach and shouting for hunger, and hurriedly asked the servants to bring him food. It was already past noon, and Song Chunlin was already starving. Looking at him wolfing down the food, Su Fuqing was still worried about whether the Gu Fengyun brothers had any food to eat.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. The emperor has to eat too. They may have already eaten the imperial meal by now."

"Is that so? By the way, what happened when you went in this time? It's related to the barbarians."

Song Chunlin gave Su Fuqing a thumbs up and said, "Sister-in-law is really smart. It is indeed related to the barbarians, but it is not a dangerous matter. Sister-in-law will know when the time comes."

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Su Fuqing did not think much about it and just thought that the emperor did not allow them to tell anyone.

After lunch, Song Chunlin returned to his yard and began to write the plan while biting the tip of his pen. When Gu Fengyue came back, he had just finished the first page.

"What are you writing about? The school is expanding? Aren't there enough people in the school now? Where else do you want to recruit people from?"

"Of course, from all over the country. Look, Cai Sheng is a good example this time. Now the aristocratic families don't allow us to implement the imperial examination system, so let's start from the schools. Look, isn't Cai Sheng a good example this time? If we use him as a model to recruit students from all over the country, we will definitely be able to find more talented students like Cai Sheng."

Gu Fengyue thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Since you are planning to expand the school, why don't you also include Dad and Big Brother in the school? I remember that Dad and Big Brother have been teaching the villagers how to farm. In this case, let's do it together and set up a school like the university I told you about."

Song Chunlin pointed at himself and said, "You, let me run a school?"

It is relatively simple to run a school, but to run a university? Or a university in his previous life? Isn't this game too big?

"It's not you, it's dad and big brother. If it were you... you could open a kindergarten."

Song Chunlin pushed the other person angrily: "What do you mean by that? Are you questioning my knowledge?"

Gu Fengyue suppressed her laughter: "Hahaha, no, no, really no, my husband is extremely talented and well-educated, and I am the one who is not talented enough to recognize a great man."

Song Chunlin felt a little embarrassed when he heard Gu Fengyue's compliments. Well, actually, he wasn't that knowledgeable. After all, he was a poor student in his previous life...

But this is not important. Gu Fengyue is right about one thing. Since they are going to recruit students from all over the country, why not just set up a university.
