Reborn In The Three Kingdoms

Chapter 116: 116. Gunpowder Finally Been Made!

Lie Fan was sleeping alone tonight on his quarters, Tomorrow will be his wedding to Diao Chan so in regards to Diao Chan he sleeps alone tonight. Ying Yue understands Lie Fan's actions and supports his decision to do so.

The next morning, just like the wedding ceremony and rituals that were done by Lie Fan during his wedding to Ying Yue, Lie Fan changed into his wedding attire after taking a bath. As Diao Chan doesn't have a family to represent her and doesn't have a family house, she stays in the Lie Clan's residence which makes some people gossip but only mild gossip.

Because Diao Chan lives at the Lie Clan's residence, she was put in the farthest courtyard at the residence. Lie Fan decided to not use a palanquin, but Diao Chan used the palanquin to substitute for her carriage. The palanquin is closed from each side, like a small carriage but being lifted by people.

Lie Fan walks accompanied by his bodyguards, generals, and an entourage of servants bringing the betrothal gifts, As this is happening inside Lie Clan's residence the people of Xiapi can't see the spectacle but nonetheless give their congratulations by standing outside.

The City Guards and Lie Clan Guards were standing outside in a line, they established a perimeter so that the common people weren't standing too close to the residence entrance. Many of the guests came one by one, The amount of guests invited for this wedding was much lower and they were either friends or relatives not as spectacular as Ying Yue's wedding guests.

The wedding steps are almost the same as Ying Yue's and Lie Fan's wedding, the part that makes it different is there are no exchanges but Lie Fan gives the betrothal gifts to Diao Chan's representatives.

This will be used as Diao Chan's personal wealth in the future as it should be, As for dowry the Lie Clan has a large amount of money and Lie Fan himself has a large amount in his inventory.

Lie Fan and Diao Chan then come together to the main hall where Lie Shang, Yu Yan, and Ying Yue are waiting. Ying Yue only came to see the homage ceremony, Lie Fan and Diao Chan bowed to heaven & earth, To Lie Fan's parents, and to each other.

After the ceremony was done, Diao Chan was brought to their boudoir chamber. Lie Fan receives guest toast after toast of wine from the guest, his generals are determined to make him drunk but they are defeated by Lie Fan who is already immune to alcohol.

When the time for Lie Fan enters the boudoir chamber, Just like before everyone in the room cheers Lie Fan, and some of them even envy Lie Fan a bit as he can marry 2 beauties in the span of 10 days. Lie Fan enters the boudoir and Diao Chan has prepared the wine that they will drink together.

Diao Chan's beauty is different from Ying Yue's, she is more mature and sexy while Ying Yue is the innocent beauty type. Diao Chan is shy but not as shy as Ying Yue, she and Lie Fan already have their first night even though both of them don't exactly remember how it goes.

Lie Fan and Diao Chan both helped each other take off their clothes, Lie Fan and Diao Chan then kissed each other hungrily with their tongues battling and tasting each other saliva. Lie Fan hugged Diao Chan up and brought her to the bed, he blew the candle that lit up the room and used the blanket to cover the two of them.

Gasps, moans, and grunts can be heard in their wedding room, and the sounds are louder than the night Lie Fan and Ying Yue spend together. The moon and stars in the sky hid themselves behind the clouds, too shy because of hearing the sound coming out.

The next morning, Diao Chan woke up and saw Lie Fan's sleeping face She couldn't help but kiss him on the cheek. Lie Fan actually has woken up from his sleep, he wanted to enjoy his time hugging Diao Chan in her birthday suit and enjoying the feeling of two coconuts in his body.

Feeling Diao Chan kiss his cheek, Lie Fan opened his eyes and turned the situation around. Diao Chan was surprised and before she could react, Lie Fan was already above her, Seeing the smirk on his face Diao Chan blushed.

Lie Fan: "Chan'er have from naughty, you dare to sneak attack me now."

Diao Chan: "Wh-what sneak attack?! Can't I kiss my husband's face?"

Lie Fan: "Chan'er forgot about what happened last night? Do I need to remind you who was begging to stop?"

Diao Chan blushed even more hearing Lie Fan's words, remembering how aggressive Lie Fan was last night and how she begged for him to stop but Lie Fan's offense grew even heavier. Lie Fan seeing Diao Chan's red face, can't help but kiss her little nose because of how cute she is.

While they were frolicking with each other, suddenly a knock came from the outside, and a servant's voice could be heard from the other side.

Servant: "My Lord, I'm sorry for disturbing you but there's an urgent letter requiring your attention."

Lie Fan: "What urgent letter?! Didn't I tell everyone that I will have a 5-day holiday, All my duties were given to Jia Xu and Xun You while I'm gone!"

The servant outside the room doesn't dare to answer hearing Lie Fan's loud voice. Diao Chan saw that Lie Fan was irritated because their time was interrupted, While she felt warm because of this she also didn't want to disturb Lie Fan's important work.

Diao Chan: "Husband, it's fine you can go and see the content of the letter. What if it's truly important and requires your attention?"

Lie an: "But..."

Diao Chan: "*kiss* It's okay Husband, your duty is important to our Province and you can still spend time with me after your work is done."

Lie Fan: "Chan'er, I promised to spend some time with you after I am done with this. You will receive the same treatment as what Yue'er receives don't worry."

Lie Fan kissed Diao Chan's forehead, after telling the servant to wait outside Lie Fan hugged Diao Chan for some time and then got up to change into new clothes. He then went outside the room and closed the door right behind him, The servants kept looking down afraid that Lie Fan would fire him.

Lie Fan: "Where is the letter?"

Servant: "Here My Lord."

Lie Fan: "Okay you can leave, next time don't disturb me!"

The servant like receiving a mandate from heaven, went out immediately while Lie Fan opened up the letter to see who it was from. When he read the content of the letter, he was surprised and then thrilled by what he read.

It turns out that it was a letter from Jia Xu, Jia Xu informed him that the gunpowder was successfully made and he gave a secret location where he and Chen Deng accompanied the alchemist and craftsman involved in this project to test it.

Lie Fan immediately called for Liu Pi and Bo Cai to follow him, for He Yi and Gong Du each were ordered to protect his wives while he went out. Lie Fan and two of his bodyguards take their horse from the stable, accompanied by 10 of Lie Clan's most elite guards they ride out towards the outskirts of Xiapi where there's a forest where Jia Xu and the others waiting for him.

When they arrived, Lie Fan saw that there was a village in the forest, turns out this was a hideout made for the alchemist and craftsman to make and test the weaponry. There he meets with Jia Xu alongside Chen Deng and asks them when they built this village, doesn't he order it to be made in Huai'An before.

Jia Xu: "Yes My Lord, it was in Huai'An before but considering that it was too far for me alongside Chen Deng to go out and do weekly or monthly checkups, we decided to make a hideout here don't worry Oriole most elite combatant was stationed here."

Lie Fan: "Huh... Inform me next time, I thought there was something wrong with Huai'An. Okay then show me the Gunpowder, I want to see it myself!"

Jia Xu and Chen Deng brought Lie Fan to the alchemist and craftsman who was entrusted with this project. The Alchemist shows Lie Fan the dark powder that was made from a combination of Charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter.

Lie Fan wasn't sure that this was the gunpowder he wanted but he gave it the benefit of the doubt, Lie Fan told them to demonstrate it as he wanted to see if it would truly explode.

The craftsman takes out a small bamboo tube he made, puts the gunpowder in the alchemist made inside, and closes the lid. At the center of the lid, there's a little string being put there. The craftsman lights it up with a fire burning from a torch and throws it towards a tree far from them.

At first, there was no reaction, thinking that it was a failure Suddenly a loud bang was heard shocking everyone hearing it. Lie Fan and his entourage were surprised, but the alchemist and the craftsman were happy that it was a success even though it also surprised them.

They see the location of the tree after the fog of smoke is gone, they see that the tree lost most of its lumber and will fall any second. Seeing this effect, Lie Fan instantly laughs out loud and claps loudly about the success the gunpowder truly is.

Lie Fan: "Good! Good! Both of you will be rewarded 100,000 taels each! Also, two of you were promoted to become the leader of a new group that will specialize in gunpowder!"

Alchemist+Craftsman: "Thank You, My Lord!"

Lie Fan: "Jia Xu and Chen Deng, two of you have seen the effect of this gunpowder, what do you think?"

Jia Xu: "It was magnificent my lord! If all of our army and Oriole were equipped with this, we would be truly unstoppable!"

Chen Deng: "Like Master Jia Xu said My Lord, it was magnificent, and if we can use this domestically it can help us with our mining and excavating more ores!"

Lie Fan: "Haha! Now both of you know why I put this as our main priority, now that it has been made just like the two of you have explained the mining sector and military sector will receive the most. Now prepare to pool some resources from our channel to help us produce this massively!"

Jia Xu and Chen Deng become more invigorated after seeing the result of gunpowder, it is the first time they see such a powerful device that can be used as a weapon and tool for mining.

Lie Fan having seen the results of the gunpowder, ordered the alchemist and the craftsman to work on the Bee Killer project next as the main priority as gunpowder is their main component. He receives double happiness today by marrying Diao Chan and the successful Gunpowder.
