Seeing Zhu Yue's anxious look, Xiao Yunlan also became nervous: "Mother, what exactly is this explosive?"

"It's a weapon that can blow up city gates. It has enormous destructive power. If she really figures it out, we'll suffer heavy losses." Zhu Yue took a deep breath and knitted her eyebrows tightly together.

She had also heard of this explosive in her previous life and vaguely knew that it required sulfur and gunpowder. She thought about it for a moment, turned around and walked outside, running all the way back to the Zhu family.

"Brother, I have something to talk to you about!"

Zhu Yue was panting and looked at the head of the Zhu family with a nervous face.

Seeing his sister like this, the head of the Zhu family smiled and then said lightly: "It's really hard for you to still know that I am your brother. Tell me, what bad things do you have to find me for?"

"Brother, I want you to control the circulation of sulfur and gunpowder and try to make sure that not even a trace of them can be found in the entire Jiangnan area." Zhu Yue directly put forward his request.

What the hell?

The head of the Zhu family originally thought that it was not a big deal, but he never expected that the first request would be so excessive?

He frowned and looked at Zhu Yue, and said helplessly: "I won't talk about other things. Just the waterway in Jiangnan is well connected. Your request is too demanding. I can't do it."

"Whatever you have to do, don't let anyone buy these things. I know you can do it."

"It's already this late. When it comes to life and death, you still care about face. Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"I don't care. If you don't help me, I will just hang myself in the ancestral hall. If you don't believe me, just try it!"

Zhu Yue's attitude was extremely arrogant, and it was obvious that she had no intention of reasoning.

Asking someone to do something for you, and still being so arrogant?

The head of the Zhu family looked at Zhu Yue's unreasonable appearance and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly: "I really can't do it, but I will try my best, okay?"

That's more or less.

"Brother, this is absolutely no joke. This is really important to me. You must try your best. If it doesn't work, just block the waterway!" Zhu Yue still felt that this matter should be handled with caution.

After hearing this, the head of the Zhu family really felt sick. He took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Do you think this is the capital? Whatever you say is true, I tell you, this is not the capital, this is Jiangnan, and this place cannot be blocked just by saying so!"

"Brother, please help me. I want to meet the other family heads." Zhu Yue certainly knew that the situation here was a bit complicated.

She took a deep breath and felt that she should come forward to resolve the matter. After all, she could now represent Xiao Jingzheng with full authority.

After hearing this, the head of the Zhu family refused directly: "No, you have a special status now. If you really meet them, I'm afraid they will do something bad to you! What if something happens?"

"You're my big brother, you're right beside me, what could possibly happen to me?"

"Brother, the situation is really dangerous and complicated now. I beg you, please help me!"

Zhu Yue was really anxious. She lifted her skirt and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, the head of the Zhu family quickly helped the man up and said, "Okay, okay, what's wrong with you, kid? I'll promise you, what are you doing!"

The person he loves the most since childhood is his younger sister, so as long as Zhu Yue asks for something, he will try his best to do it. Although this matter is very difficult and dangerous, he knows that he must help his sister, because if he doesn't help, who can his sister count on?

"Brother, thank you."

Zhu Yue's eyes were red and she felt a little sad and aggrieved. From childhood to adulthood, her brother had always been the best one to her. No matter what happened, he was the only one who could help and support her in the end.

"Brother, you are so kind to me." Zhu Yue stood up and hugged the head of the Zhu family: "Don't worry, I will definitely repay you well!"

The head of the Zhu family is already old, and what he wants most is to see his only sister live happily.

He looked at Zhu Yue, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Have you ever thought about why Jiangnan is like this?"

"I know, it's because Zheng'er is not a good person, because Zheng'er is too extreme and cold-blooded, so everyone is a little disappointed."

"But brother, that's all in the past. Now that I'm back, I can guarantee that he won't be the same as before. Believe me."

Zhu Yue looked at the head of the Zhu family very seriously, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.

After hearing this, the head of the Zhu family sighed helplessly: "Silly girl, I definitely believe you, but they may not believe you. I am your relative, but they are all strangers to you. I am not worried about others, I am just worried about you. What should I do if you are injured?"

"I know, I know this is difficult, but I am Zheng'er's mother, and I must help my child."

"Besides, if I hadn't left when I said I would, the children wouldn't be like this now. As a mother, I have this responsibility."

"Ayan hasn't come back yet and I'm alone, so I have to protect the kingdom he left behind."

Zhu Yue looked at the head of the Zhu family very seriously, with tears glistening in her eyes.

Looking at her like this, the head of the Zhu family really couldn't say a word, and finally sighed helplessly.

"You have always been like this, kid. You have been stubborn since you were little."

"Forget it, I'll make the arrangements, you can come see me tomorrow, go back."

The head of the Zhu family waved his hand. He was really annoyed now, so he didn't want to see this little girl at all.

Zhu Yue had achieved his goal and would not stay here any longer to get in the way, so he turned around and walked outside.

Returning to her own small courtyard, Zhu Yue took out the token that Xiao Jingzheng had given her before she left and took a deep breath.

She knew that tomorrow would be a difficult battle, but she had to go.

"Mother!"

Xiao Huanyu came in from outside and knelt directly in front of Zhu Yue.

"My son, please see your mother!"

Zhu Yue was still very happy when she saw her little son.

She helped the child up, looked at him tenderly, and touched his head: "Why are you here? Are your injuries better?"

"I am a young general, I should come here to help my brother pacify the world." Xiao Huanyu smiled and looked at Zhu Yue: "Mother, don't worry, no one will dare to bully you when I come!"

"Silly child, who bullied me? No one bullied me. Now they want to bully your brother." Zhu Yue's eyes were cold. She held Xiao Huanyu's hand and said, "You didn't come here alone, did you?"

Xiao Huanyu nodded obediently: "I brought 30,000 soldiers with me, 10,000 of them are in the city, and the rest can come to reinforce at any time, don't worry, mother."
