"Your Majesty, the foreign minister has no right to call the shots on this kind of major matter."

Agoura's face was ugly, and these Qin people looked down on the grassland people and despised them in their hearts.

He could clearly feel that the marriage of various countries was really a rare and ordinary thing, why did it become like this when he arrived at the steppe people?

Thinking about breaking his head, Agoura couldn't even figure out why.

"Three months, only three in your country."

Ying Zheng's voice is like thunder, and there is no room for negotiation at all.

Agoura felt humiliated in his heart, but he simply did not have the confidence to refuse, nor did he have the right to refuse.

"Your Majesty, the foreign minister immediately rushed back to the grassland and conveyed His Majesty's conditions to the big order to decide."

Agoura finished speaking, and then hurried away.

Looking at the back of Agoura's departure, the corners of Yingzheng's mouth raised a slight arc.

As long as the steppe people have not lost their minds, they will definitely make smart choices.

Even if the grassland people are not wise, Yingzheng is not worried.

Nowadays, Daqin's trade extends in all directions, and there is no shortage of grasslands.

Moreover, if the grassland people are not interesting, once the border is blocked, and the soldiers are everywhere, they will soon understand the truth that people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat.

"Hundreds of officials offer their birthdays."

Soon the ceremony continued, and Bai Zhuo shouted.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, according to their grades, presented birthday gifts to His Majesty one by one.

"Minister, Zuo Wei, the major secretary of the Ministry of Industry, congratulates Your Majesty on blessings such as the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan."

About an hour later, it was Zuo Wei's turn.

Looking at His Majesty sitting on the throne, she felt a little apprehensive in her heart.

"Zuo Qing is erudite and talented, I don't know what ingenious gift I want to offer?"

Ying Zheng suddenly came to the spirit, you must know that this woman is not ordinary!

It was precisely because she came up with the sextant that the Great Qin Ocean Fleet was able to accurately divide the direction and confirm the dimensions in the vast sea.

It was also she who made the lookout realm and became a necessary weapon for the generals of Great Qin.

It's just that hesitating Daqin's metallurgical technique is not very mature, so the steam engine has been postponed again and again.

It dragged on for several years, but it never took shape.

It's not that it can't be done, it's that accessory metallurgy hasn't reached that critical point yet.

In the past few years, the alchemy of the Great Qin Empire has changed with each passing day and advanced by leaps and bounds, and she has also contributed a lot.

"Your Majesty, please look at the sky."

As night falls, the stars are dazzling and beautiful.

Zuo Wei pointed to the sky, mysterious and mysterious.

Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at it, a little puzzled.

Everyone also raised their heads, but there was nothing but the starry sky?

What does this mean by this only female official of the Great Qin Empire?

At this moment, one after another piercing sounds pierced the quiet sky, and beautiful and colorful fireworks bloomed in the sky.

They seem to light up the sky over the entire Xianyang Palace, interweaving one beautiful pattern after another.

The gorgeous fireworks and beauty made everyone stare at the sky, and it seemed that they didn't want to miss this visual feast for a moment.

Only Ying Zheng looked at the fireworks with bright eyes, but he was thoughtful in his heart.

Fireworks?

I always thought that she was not proficient in gunpowder, and it seems that I underestimated her again.

Ten years ago, he secretly gathered the world's scholars to grope for gunpowder.

Although he knew the composition and proportion of gunpowder, those fools failed to develop gunpowder for ten years.

Was this a bonus?

With gunpowder, Ying Zheng seemed to see the scene of the Great Qin's ten thousand ships galloping across the ocean and blasting open the gates of the extraterritorial barbarian country.

No matter how beautiful the fireworks are, after all, they are only fleeting, and they bloom in an instant.

After about a quarter of an hour, the sky was calm again.

Everyone is still unfinished, and all of this is like a mirror, beautiful.

"Does Your Majesty like this birthday gift?"

Zuo Wei looked at His Majesty, who was expressionless and had never smiled from beginning to end, and said nervously.

"Yes, I love this gift very much."

Ying Zheng said loudly.

Do you like it?

Why didn't you see it at all?

Zuo Wei felt a little depressed, but she quickly swept away her depression and continued: "Your Majesty, this is just the first congratulatory gift. ”

Brother Zheng is celebrating his 60th birthday, how can he give a congratulatory gift?

For today, she has been preparing for a long time.

"Oh? Anything else? ”

Ying Zheng was a little surprised, the advent of this black powder has already made him overjoyed, is there any other surprise today?

Zuo Wei waved her hand into the distance, and soon a group of attendants came up carrying a heavy loom machine.

Suddenly, everyone looked at this scene, pointed their fingers, and talked about it.

They are no strangers to this weaving machine, but can they give this thing to Your Majesty?

Although this loom looks a little strange and has a unique shape, it is too unseemly, right?

This is?

Only Ying Zheng looked at this exquisitely designed loom with closely connected gears, and was stunned.

Especially the barrel on the side attracted his attention.

As if by magic, Zuo Wei touched this strange steam engine.

Then it roared, and the huge gears began to move, pushing the pinions.

In this way, the unmanned textile machine began to run on its own.

Everyone's jaws were shocked, and they were all about to pop their eyes out.

What the hell is this?

"Hah! Ha! Ha! ”

Ying Zheng looked at this scene, and really felt displeased, and laughed loudly.

Steam engine......

It's been ten years, and the thing I dreamed of finally came out.

Everyone was confused, and they didn't know why His Majesty was happy.

They are still wondering why this unmanned loom would run on its own.

It's just that they scratch their scalps, and they're still confused.

"Did it work?"

Ying Zheng put away his laughter, looked at Zuo Wei, and asked solemnly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister lives up to His Majesty's trust, and it was only a few days ago that it was successful."

"It's just that there are many areas that need to be improved, and we can't produce them in large quantities."

Zuo Wei is also very happy, after all, this is made by herself with countless efforts.

"No hurry, no hurry, one step at a time."

I've been waiting for ten years, and it's not bad for this effort.

Ying Zheng smiled, looked at Zuo Wei, and added, "It's hard work." ”

"Loyalty to His Majesty and service to the empire is the duty of a minister, let alone hard work."

Zuo Wei's heart was full of warmth, in just three words, she felt that her hard work in the past few years had not been in vain.

"I want to reward you well, what do you want? Whether it is high-ranking officials, gold and silver jewelry, or silk and satin, slave mansions, I am not stingy. ”

Ying Zheng was in a very good mood and was very generous.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have changed color, and they have been rewarded by His Majesty, how can anyone ask His Majesty for it?

This is simply the grace of heaven, the opening of the world, the first time!

"The minister doesn't want any reward, only one wish, I hope that Your Majesty will fulfill it."

Zuo Wei has no interest in high-ranking officials, gold, silver and jewelry.

"Tell me about it."

Ying Zheng didn't say too much, and said suspiciously.

"Since ancient times, there has been a lot of life, and everyone will pity the fragrance and jade. Men all over the world are lucky, and they don't envy mandarin ducks or immortals. ”

Under the bright moonlight, Zuo Wei looked a little melancholy.

In just a few words, it makes people's hearts haggard and sad.

Like a peerless and arrogant strange woman, the world is vast, no one in the world can open her heart, full of despair and sadness about the road ahead.
