Chapter 463: Appointment

The cuckoo hurriedly asked Lingyin to open the package and bring the box.

Her outfits were sent to Kunning Palace, and the queen wanted to keep her for a while.

At one moment, the box was brought, and Emperor Zhengyuan ordered it to be placed on the kang table.

He and the prince tossed and turned and watched for a while, and then ordered the cuckoo to open it.

He didn't ask how to open the box, which made the cuckoo breathe a sigh of relief.

I thought that this imperial grandfather was quite obedient, so he didn't force her to tell the unboxing mechanism.

She didn't know that Emperor Zhengyuan was interested in the contents of the box.

The cuckoo took out the drawings, and the emperor hurriedly ordered Gonggong Qiu to take the glasses to put them on, and meet with the crown prince to watch the study.

The cuckoo watched from the sidelines, listening to their research, discussion and speculation, and it was very laborious, so he couldn't help but interject and explain.

Prince Yanwei asked in surprise, "Cuckoo, do you know this too?" ”

Cuckoo nodded, "Of course." I've watched Lin Chun make a lot of this. ”

Emperor Zhengyuan hurriedly held up a piece of paper and asked, "Tell me what's going on?" ”

At a glance, the cuckoo is the working principle diagram of the water press.

She hurriedly explained it to them.

This unfolding forgets everything: I see the old and the young gathered together, the cuckoo is like a meticulous teacher, the emperor and the crown prince are like students who listen carefully; The eunuchs and palace maids also ran in and out, one would help the lord of Jing'an get a ruler and a pen and paper, and one would help her get an abacus, and strange things were placed on a kang.

The cuckoo used a quill pen to illustrate and explain, and his words were very vivid; A hard pen is written "brush", when it is slow, the handwriting is beautiful, and when it is fast, it is like a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing.

Lin Chun only has one or two mechanical drawings, and she uses seven or eight or even a dozen drawings to draw them on the spot. Annotate indexes and act smartly. Articulate.

Prince Yanwei looked at her, his face full of pride.

Emperor Zhengyuan was shocked when he heard this: this granddaughter was obviously very proficient in these things.

"How do you understand this?" He finally couldn't help but ask. "Don't tell me that Ren Sanhe taught."

Du Juan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "I learned from Lin Chun." ”

She turned the teacher-student relationship upside down.

"Grandpa, Daddy, you haven't seen the real thing; If you see it, you will find that it is actually very simple. Lin Chun installed the first water presser in his family's well, and I saw him do it with my own eyes. As soon as you lift and press, the water comes out. They also helped me install running water. There is no need to go down to the river, the bamboo pipe leads into the yard, and the hand is twisted like this. And the water flowed out. ”

Cuckoo did not hesitate to show her intelligence, showing that this knowledge was acquired by her, not innate.

“…… There is also this hydraulic press, which is used in the rice milling workshop, flour grinding workshop, and paper workshop in our village, which is driven by water power, so that there is no need to consume manpower......"

“…… This one is for dam building. In this way, a stone wedge is laid in the middle of the large bluestone of the barrage, and no amount of water can wash it away. A dam was built in our village. The year before last, there was a big flood, and when the water receded, the embankment was fine. This is best for building a reservoir. ”

She gushed on and on, and the emperor and the crown prince listened attentively.

Even the queen and the eunuchs and palace maids listened.

They don't have to understand either. Just imagine that the cuckoo said that the water comes out automatically or something, and I am very surprised, does that mean that there is no need to fetch water in the harem with this thing?

Emperor Zhengyuan picked up the sketch drawn by the cuckoo and approached his eyes to take a closer look.

No way. The cuckoo's writing was so small that he was dazzled by it.

After probably looking at it for a long time, he took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

Seeing this, the cuckoo hurriedly moved behind him. said: "Grandpa, I'll help you rub it." Rub it like this. Relieves eye strain. Let's talk about it tomorrow, grandpa. It hurts my eyes when I look at it for a long time at night. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to do eye exercises for the old emperor.

While doing it, he said to Gong Qiu: "Gong Qiu, in the future, grandpa will be busy with government affairs, and it will be more comfortable to help him do it every half an hour; Wash your eyes with tea in the morning; Eat more carrots and ......"

Suddenly stopped, looked at the queen and said with a smile: "The granddaughter is too talkative." ”

Emperor Zhengyuan asked, "And what?" ”

The queen hurriedly encouraged: "If you ask, you will say." ”

Only then did the cuckoo say, "Tomatoes." ”

After kneading it for a while, Emperor Zhengyuan blinked and said, "Well, it's better." ”

Turning his head to Qiu Gonggong, he said, "Can you see it clearly?" ”

Gonggong Qiu said embarrassedly: "The slave is stupid, go back and ask the county lord for advice." ”

Emperor Zhengyuan didn't scold him, and said to Du Juan: "Juan girl, go on." ”

Prince Yanwei hurriedly persuaded: "It's almost the third watch, my father should rest." ”

Du Juan also smiled and persuaded: "Grandpa Huang doesn't have to be in a hurry, go back and let Lin Chun lead someone to make it, and explain the operation to the real thing, isn't it better than talking on paper like this?" These things play a great role in agriculture, water conservancy, and civil life, and can promote the development of industry and agriculture......"

She began to ask for credit for Lin Chun.

How did Emperor Zhengyuan not know her thoughts!

He waved his hand and ordered the palace ladies and eunuchs to retreat, and then stared at her with sharp eyes and said, "I know your thoughts." But you are not an ordinary daughter now, you are the daughter of the prince! It's not like you can marry whoever you want. ”

The cuckoo's expression froze.

Emperor Zhengyuan said with a cold face: "Don't think that I am ruthless! ”

As he spoke, he turned to Prince Yanwei, "And you, did you think that I was the most ruthless father in the world?" Now I don't explain, I only ask you: Why didn't you force the palace to ascend the throne today? ”

Prince Yanwei was stunned and silent.

Emperor Zhengyuan said majestically: "You don't need to be secret! I forced the palace to ascend the throne back then, and your grandfather also forced the palace to ascend the throne. You tell me the truth: Are you unsure or what? ”

Seeing this question, the queen looked at the prince with worried eyes, and the cuckoo was also frightened.

Prince Yanwei got up and got off the kang, knelt down in front of Emperor Zhengyuan, and said seriously: "Father Emperor Mingjian, the son really didn't think about forcing the palace!" Now Dajing seems to be strong, but the internal situation is very complicated, even if the father and emperor are now passing on the throne to their sons, the sons and daughters cannot control the overall situation like their fathers and grandfathers. If there is a large-scale purge, it will only shake the foundation of the Great Yasukuni. The sons know that their abilities are not enough, and they have to rely on their father's support. Please teach your sons! ”

After hearing this, Emperor Zhengyuan bowed his head again and again: "Okay! Good! This is my good son! Yan'er, you've finally grown up! ”

Turning to the cuckoo again, he asked, "Do you understand?" ”

The cuckoo blinked. I don't understand.

She's not a man, why do you ask her to come?

Emperor Zhengyuan saw that she was ignorant and ignorant of political affairs. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Her performance had shocked him a little.

Looking at her, he said helplessly: "Even if I and the prince are willing to promise you to Lin Chun in their hearts, there will be people in the court who oppose it." Fortunately, Lin Chun presented these drawings. It's much stronger than before, and I'll reward him. But it's not enough, he has to work harder to be worthy of you. ”

The cuckoo now understood.

Isn't that difficult?

It's not that she exaggerates, but the far-reaching impact of these drawings on the whole society, I'm afraid that even the first-class officials in the DPRK and China can't do it!

Emperor Zhengyuan got up and got off the kang and said to Prince Yanwei: "Go!" Go to the Imperial Study. A few courtiers in the cabinet are still waiting. ”

This was arranged by him, and tomorrow morning will be a struggle.

Prince Yanwei hurriedly stepped forward to serve him to put on his boots, and when he got up, he threw a reassuring look at Cuckoo. He glanced at the queen again, and asked the queen mother to take care of her daughter.

The queen nodded slightly, signaling him to be reassured.

When Emperor Zhengyuan was leaving, he said to Du Juan: "Girl, grandpa's breakfast tomorrow morning will be arranged by you." "It's as if it's glorifying her.

The cuckoo hurriedly agreed.

One side slandered: Don't they all say that the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married?

Why is it so difficult for her to marry someone!

She stared at Gonggong Qiu, who was holding the drawings and going out, and was indignant in her heart.

Everyone was gone, and the queen took her hand lovingly and said, "Come, let grandmother take a good look." ”

This night, the cuckoo had the honor of sharing a bed with the mother of the country.

As for Emperor Zhengyuan and the crown prince and others, they stayed up all night.

The second day was five days earlier. Emperor Zhengyuan issued several holy decrees in succession: announcing the return of the prince, entering the East Palace, and appointing the prince, the prince, the master and the prince and other subordinate officials of the East Palace; The Hu family kidnapped and robbed the county lord and beheaded them all over the house; The Thirteen Princes are confined. Hu Guifei was confined in the palace, and there were also appointments and dismissals of generals and commanders.

When the hearts of the people were shocked, he announced an amnesty to the world. Therefore, the Hu family was also pardoned, and only the principal was killed. the remnant were exiled; The palace feasted the ministers, and the whole world celebrated; In addition, envoys from western and southern Xinjiang and other subject countries entered Beijing one after another to worship. The Ministry of Ceremonies arranges a reception ......

The court is changing, and the East Palace is full of joy.

The eunuchs and palace maids ran back and forth, packed up and greeted the prince.

After breakfast, Lin Chun entered the palace with Zhang Gui and came to the East Palace first.

was watching everywhere, and suddenly a little eunuch asked outside, "Who is Lin Chunlin Xiucai?" The queen summoned her. ”

The grand eunuch of Kunning Palace, Tang Gonggong, came to the East Palace to check on the order of the queen, and when he heard the voice, he recognized it, so he asked: "Zhu Feng, the queen summoned Lin Xiucai?" ”

Zhu Feng hurriedly bent down and smiled: "Yes, Father-in-law Tang." ”

Father-in-law Tang invited Lin Chun out.

Lin Chun was worried and happy in his heart, greeted Zhang Gui, and went with Zhu Feng.

Out of the East Palace, Zhu Feng smiled softly at him: "Young Master Lin, let's go to the Imperial Garden first, the Lord of Jing'an will take the Divine Tiger to relax in the garden." After seeing the county lord, I went to see the queen mother. ”

Lin Chun nodded in understanding, and said with a smile: "Please ask your father-in-law to lead the way." ”

Zhu Feng hurriedly said that he didn't dare to do it, this is a matter of duty.

The two of them then headed for the Imperial Garden. Along the way, he also met the eunuch Gong E, Lin Chun followed Zhu Feng in a proper manner, and did not look around.

After walking for a long time, the palace was sparse and scarce, and there were more pavilions and pavilions, and I saw that the rockery trees and flowers were flourishing, and it was close to the imperial garden.

At the south gate, Zhu Feng said to Lin Chun: "The county lord is on the hillside over there, Lin Gongzi, please wait, and wait for the slave to come over and say back." ”

Lin Chun nodded hurriedly, and Zhu Feng hurried away.

Lin Chun was looking around, and suddenly heard someone behind him: "Lin Chun, why are you here?" ”

Lin Chun looked back and saw that it was the cuckoo, who was following like the wind around him, and saw him flying over.

He rejoiced and said, "The queen has summoned me." ”

After speaking, I looked at her in a daze, and I was dazzled by her dress, and I didn't even pay attention to the wind rubbing around me.

The cuckoo was also overjoyed, and said with a smile: "I say, it runs so fast like the wind." ”

beckoned him to turn back and said to take him to see the queen.

At this time, the palace maid with the cuckoo came up. (To be continued......)
