0520 A drop into the soul

"Okay, the New Year is just a few days away, Ruixue Zhaofeng year......"

Concubine Long slowly stepped out of the door of the study, looked at the palace that was already half-white, reached out to catch a few falling snowflakes, two eunuchs hurriedly stepped forward with a stove, and a palace maid even carried a fur-collared coat and draped it on her body.

"What kind of garment is this, and why is it so...... Bloated, but so light......"

Concubine Long Zi looked down in surprise, this is a bright yellow dragon robe coat, the fiery red collar looks festive and foreign, two five-clawed white dragons are attached to the chest, not only have two strange diagonal pockets, but also have two deep pockets inside.

"Back to His Royal Highness, this is a down jacket woven by Huaiyang as a tribute......"

The palace maid said with some envy: "The down jackets are made of soft white goose down, and the interior is divided into hundreds of small squares, which are not only light and breathable, but also several times the warmth of cotton clothes.

"So this is a down jacket, and it's said that it's very popular, right......?"

Concubine Long subconsciously walked back, and the palace maid followed up and said with a smile: "The down jacket is precious, a high-quality one can cost more than a hundred taels of silver, and an ordinary one costs dozens of taels, Concubine Qi begged the little county lord to buy one, but the other mothers are envious, and now it is not easy to buy silver!"

"Why can Yongning buy it, where does she get the ability......"

Concubine Long Zifei walked behind the screen and stretched out her arms, the palace maids hurriedly helped her change her clothes, and the palace maid said: "The third lady of Qiuji is on an errand under King Zhao, and the little county lord blocked King Zhao at the palace gate, so King Zhao sent someone to send six pieces into the palace, and the little county lord wore three pieces alone, and changed them every day!"

"Hmph~ Qiu Ji paid a few tributes to my ......"

Concubine Long's eyes suddenly became fierce, and the palace maid panicked: "Two, two! But yours are all the best dragon clothes, the little county lord is a folk goods, and Qiu Ji also sent a few pairs of wool snow boots, do you want to try it?"

"Get it!"

Concubine Long only wore a small coat and put on a down jacket, the long down jacket even covered her knees, and soon she felt warm, and when she put on a pair of snow boots with thick heels, she suddenly felt that the whole person was tall and long.

"It's really warm and light, and this pocket is very ......convenient."

Concubine Long walked to the floor mirror and said with a smile: "It seems that what King Zhao said is right, the times are changing, we all have to bring forth the new, you go to the Qiu Ji and send a few more regular clothes into the palace, let them work hard, and let Huaiyang weaving go to the next level!"

"Yes!"

The palace maid ran out happily, she must have collected a lot of benefits, and Concubine Long didn't sit in a sedan chair when she went out, but only let the palace maid hold an umbrella, and walked all the way to the front palace with snow, and where there was more snow, she stepped on it, and finally revealed the girl's side.

"Alas~ This down jacket is so hot, this king is sweating......"

Concubine Long depressedly unbuttoned a copper button, her top down jacket is a tribute, the materials and workmanship are definitely the top, the earth's Canada geese may not have this material, and she was already sweating when she walked to the cabinet office.

"No one wants to rob Lao Tzu's things......"

"Why give it to you, Lao Tzu's silver is not silver......"

"What are you going to do with a flying cannon to fight a bandit, you want to attack the city......"

A noisy shout came from the courtyard, and Concubine Long walked in in surprise to see that it was actually a group of generals arguing in the room, each slapping the table and smashing the bench, and the cabinet ministers were leisurely drinking tea beside them, which was obviously commonplace.

"What is the noise, when is this place ......?"

Concubine Long Zi lifted the curtain domineeringly, who knew that the generals were actually a woolen army, and they didn't wear the majestic armor and official robes, all of them were wearing long riding boots, tied with cowhide armed belts, and inside were dark green German-style military uniforms, with short hair cuts and big-brimmed hats.

"Your Highness!"

The ministers hurriedly bowed and saluted, and after Concubine Long walked to the main seat and sat down, a general stepped forward and said hurriedly: "Master Long......! What nonsense!"

"Bastard, dare to talk nonsense in front of His Highness......"

The military department scolded, but Concubine Long raised her hand and smiled: "It's okay! A few of them have been messing around with King Zhao all day long, and they are full of words to learn from him, but where did you get the money to buy the flying cannon, aren't you arguing every day that you can't open the pot?"

"As long as the mind does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties......

The other party said seriously: "There are bandits all the way up in the southwest mountains, known as the king of Monkey King, the mountains are complex and inconvenient to display, the ministers asked the rich gentry to raise a batch of silver taels, and wanted to buy a hundred flying cannons, bombard his mother one by one, and then return the bandit money to them!"

"Hey, hey~ It's so nice, are you a bandit......

A general mocked: "You are the four voids that Zhao Wang Ye said, the boss's waist, the tears of prostitutes, the manuscript of civil officials and the knife of Xiangyong, but hundreds of bandits, you use a hundred flying cannons to bombard, I think you want to open a mountain by the way and become a mine boss, right?"

"Is there a mine in Xiling?"

Concubine Long grabbed the key point, and the other party immediately said: "Master Long! That gang of thieves just discovered the open-pit copper mine and called the villagers to mine it privately, and the officials of Xiling Road didn't want to buy cannons, but just wanted to use the medicine bag of the flying cannon to blow up the mountain, which is much easier than manual mining!"

"Bomb the mountain?"

Concubine Long Zifei was puzzled: "Isn't there a gunpowder workshop in the Ministry of Industry, wouldn't it be good to buy a batch and blow it up, why do you have to use the medicine bag of the flying cannon to blow it up?"

"Master Long! The medicine produced by the Ministry of Industry can only be made into firecrackers, which is too inferior......"

The general said with contempt: "The medicine of the flying cannon comes from the Lanshuihe Commercial Bank, they have a professional mountain opening team, and half of the mountain collapsed when the cannon sounded, but this medicine cannot be sold privately, so you can only take the joint approval of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry and ask them to order it!"

"Your Highness, let's explain......"

Xia Shoufu stepped forward and said with a smile: "Xiling Dao wants to open a mine, General Hu wants to fight a war and crusade against the Hu barbarians, and the border army also wants to transfer artillery to consolidate the pass, and they have to buy both of the self-raised silver, but the output of Lanshui River is limited, and it is also mining, so the supply exceeds demand!"

"Bang~"

Concubine Long slammed the table and said angrily: "What does the Ministry of Industry do to eat, even your own soldiers dislike the things you produce, I think you can also play a supervisory role, just remove your workshop and hand it over to the private trading house to do it!"

"Your Highness! The old minister has a way to compromise......

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu hurriedly said: "Lanshuihe's prescription is unwilling to sell, and the workshop of the Ministry of Industry is idle, so the old minister asks to play, and allows the Ministry of Industry to join forces with Lanshuihe, and the Ministry of Industry will contribute people to supervise, and they will contribute capital and craftsmanship, so that they can not only make money, but also greatly increase production!"

"Are you stupid for others......"

Concubine Long said disdainfully: "You have learned all the crafts of others, turn around and kick people away, who are they looking for to cry, if you want to do big things, don't play false, go and sign a twenty-year agreement with others, the profits during the period belong to them, half of the output is purchased and deployed by the Ministry of War, and the court will take back the workshop after 20 years!"

"Oops~ Your Highness's method is wonderful, the old minister will go to them in the afternoon to negotiate......"

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu was busy patting his ass, and Concubine Long Zifei took a sip of the tea bowl and said: "Whoever achieves great things is a win-win situation, don't think about taking advantage of others all day long, by the way! What are you wearing, has the Ministry of War issued a new military uniform?"

"The military department doesn't have this idle silver ......"

The secretary of the military department sat on the chair and said disdainfully: "They are all in a mess, and when they saw that the new military uniforms of the dragoon regiment were wearing majestic clothes, they all went to the Qiuji Trading House to do a few things, and they said what ...... Protective color!"

"Your Excellency, you just can't keep up with the times, aren't you just a protective color......

A general said angrily: "You haven't seen the auspicious clothes of the dragoons, you can't find it at your feet, our clothes are called army green, a cat in the forest, confusing the sight, and how convenient this pocket is, you don't have to take off your pants if you have a small buckle!"

"It seems that you have a high opinion of the dragoons......"

Concubine Long asked with a smile: "This king asks you, if I face the dragoons against the most elite troops in the case of equal strength, who will win and who will lose?"

"Master Long, if they charge each other in the plains, the Yulin Army can kill them without leaving a single piece ......of armor behind."

A general arched his hand and said: "If you fight a mountain battle or a city battle, the dragoons can block ten with one, because the dragoons are never trained to charge into battle, and their existence is only to ambush, guard, and block the enemy, and they can only be regarded as one guard!"

"What do you think of the sudden war?"

Concubine Long slowly glanced at them, and one of the generals arched his hand and said: "The minister thinks that the war is the best choice to carry out the enemy's special service...... Even my own people are lied!"

"Gott~"

Concubine Long suddenly covered her mouth and rushed to the side, and actually squatted on the side of the spittoon and retched, and the ministers were so frightened that they hurriedly ran out to call the imperial doctor.

When the two imperial doctors arrived with the medicine box, Concubine Long had already sat back in the chair and said weakly: "Is this king cold, he has always vomited sour water these days!"

"Your Highness, don't worry, let Lao Chen check your pulse first......"

The old lady took out a small pillow very respectfully, sat on the side and took the pulse seriously, but after a while, he withdrew his hand in fright, and hurriedly got up to give his colleague a look, and the colleague's face changed slightly, and he cautiously stepped forward to check the pulse.

"What's wrong? Honestly, you don't have to hide ......."

Concubine Long straightened up in confusion, and the room was all watching, only to see the middle-aged imperial doctor wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and said in a trembling voice: "Minister, minister is incompetent, think you are ...... It's a joy!"

"Huh?"

A room full of generals and ministers were all dumbfounded, Concubine Long slammed the table angrily, and the two imperial doctors knelt on the ground at the same time, but Concubine Long scolded angrily: "Damn Ao Bing, let him not come, don't come, just pick this time to go down to earth, do you want to kill me?"

"Your Highness, dragon seed......"

The room was instantly excited again, and everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

"Nonsense!"

Concubine Long said depressedly: "Except for the dead ghost little white dragon, who can sneak into the palace quietly, how can this king let outsiders touch it, the dead ghost dragon also told me that it's okay, you two hurry up and see, is it really happy?"

"Your Highness......!

The old lady doctor said excitedly: "Actually, the minister has already found a clue in your recipe, you like to eat sour dates recently, eighty percent is a dragon, and you have been pregnant for more than a month, but...... Whether the dragon is a dragon or a human, the ministers don't know how to serve!"

"His father said that the little dragon man is in human form, but it is possible that he will grow dragon horns......"

Concubine Long got up and stroked her belly, looked at the snow outside the house and said melancholy: "Alas~ It's too bad for this dragon to come, my father is still guarding the border pass, and the brothers are fighting on the seaside, this king can't stand up to the court with a big belly, right?"

"Your Highness, this is a great event......

A minister said excitedly: "This year's snow is warm and winter, you welcome the dragon son again, God bless me Dashun, and this is a real dragon son, who can compete with my Dashun in the future, the Ministry of Rites must immediately announce to the world, and the people rejoice!"

"Let's go to the Ministry of Rites, I have to settle accounts with the Dead Ghost Dragon......"

Concubine Long covered her belly and quickly walked out of the cabinet, but she turned into the corridor alone, looked at the snowflakes that kept falling every day, and muttered to herself: "Do you owe me, or do I owe you, really...... Hit it all the time!"
