The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!

Chapter 1078: Chapter 1078: Deadly Thing

Jiang Youzhi suddenly grabbed her hand excitedly, "Do you know how to make explosives?"

Yun Jiao looked at him in surprise, "Are you really making explosives in the side courtyard?"

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "Recently, I saw people setting off firecrackers and suddenly thought that when these things explode, their power isn’t small. If not handled properly, they could even injure people. So why couldn’t they be used on the battlefield?"

"However, I thought this idea might be too bizarre, so I didn’t tell anyone, thinking I’d try it myself first."

Yun Jiao patted her chest, "My goodness, don’t try it anymore. This is deadly stuff."

"If you really want to research this, why not let those masters who make fireworks and firecrackers develop it?"

"They’re familiar with the ratio of saltpeter and sulfur, which would be much faster than you messing around by yourself."

Jiang Youzhi’s eyes lit up, "What you said makes sense."

"Previously, I thought I was being too fanciful, so I didn’t look for someone to study it. Since you said there’s really something to it, I’ll gather artisans immediately to work on it."

Seeing Jiang Youzhi was determined to do it, Yun Jiao straightforwardly explained the basic principles of explosives and cannons.

She couldn’t make them herself; she only knew the general idea.

Jiang Youzhi listened to Yun Jiao, his eyes shining brightly, and hugged her tightly, "Jiao Jiao is truly brilliant, knowing everything."

Yun Jiao felt a bit embarrassed from the praise. Besides her expertise as a doctor, she really didn’t know much else; it was just some common knowledge from later generations.

After clearing up the rain, the couple cuddled warmly and went to bed together.

In the following days, Qi Er and You Er were at home, and Yun Jiao reduced the number of patients she saw, consulting only in the mornings and returning home for lunch.

For several consecutive days, Yun Jiao checked Duanmu Lei’s pulse and inquired about his condition.

Duanmu Lei himself couldn’t believe it. After taking Yun Jiao’s medicine for five days, apart from vomiting blood the first night, he hadn’t vomited blood in the following days.

Keep in mind, recently he would inevitably vomit blood every one or two days.

He began to believe in Yun Jiao, believing he might not die after all.

Soon, Duanmu Lei finished taking seven doses of medicine, and Yun Jiao checked his pulse and said, "The medicine to stop the bleeding is no longer needed."

"Starting today, we begin nourishing your internal organs."

Duanmu Lei couldn’t help but ask, "Doctor Gu, do you mean I won’t vomit blood anymore from now on?"

Yun Jiao shook her head, "Not exactly."

"If you don’t nourish your internal organs, soon you’ll vomit blood again."

"If you take medicine to nourish them, you’ll gradually recover. Maybe in a month or two, you might vomit a little, but once your organs are nurtured back to health, you’ll be completely fine. However, this illness indeed shortens your lifespan a bit; originally you might live to a hundred, now you’ll likely only live to ninety."

Duanmu Lei nearly laughed; Doctor Gu really knows how to talk.

He stood up and bowed deeply, "Doctor Gu is truly a miracle healer."

"I am deeply grateful for Doctor Gu’s life-saving grace."

Yun Jiao smiled, "Elderly sir, there’s no need for that. I’m just a doctor, treating illnesses and saving lives is what I should do."

Duanmu Lei nodded, then said, "Previously, I was always worried I wouldn’t live much longer, so I kept something in mind and didn’t say it."

"Qi Er and You Er are both talented. I’ve yet to pass on my martial arts and would like to take them as apprentices. I wonder if madam—"

Yun Jiao was delighted, "That would be wonderful! Just a couple of days ago, You Er mentioned that under your guidance, he felt he improved greatly in martial arts."
