Chapter 274: Making Fireworks
Xiao Si pouted while eating: "Niangniang, this thing is really delicious, if Shengshi Pavilion has this, you can make more money, see if you send this to Concubine Li!" ”
Lu Qingjin smiled helplessly: "You are clever, it's okay to send a copy, after all, Shengshi Pavilion should indeed have something like this." ”
It didn't take long for the thunder to hear the pouring rain, everyone in the capital ran quickly to their homes, even some begging people found a place to shelter from the rain, there was no one on the wet bluestone street, Jiu'an stood on the upper floor of the Shengshi Pavilion and watched quietly for a while before sighing: "Tell me when this rain will not fall well, but at this time, Si Min'an is afraid that he will suffer." ”
The little eunuch lit the lamp in the middle of the room, and said in a cold voice, "My lord, I'm worried!" Simin An must have gotten used to it, after all, it's not a lot of suffering, and it's a price for individuals to do things. ”
Jiu'an didn't look back, just looked at the bleak wind and rain in front of him lightly: "What you said sounds like it was said to me, so you can tell me what I did wrong?" ”
The little eunuch stood behind her with his hands down, and his eyes looked at her quietly for a while: "The master himself knows, but it's already this time, it's useless for the slave to say anything, no matter what, the slave will definitely hold your life!" ”
Jiu'an let out a long sigh, the wind and rain outside the window slid in along the wind and wet the corners of her clothes, Jiu'an took a few steps back and said lightly: "You don't have to worry, of course I want to live, I can't die until that person comes back, this is what I promised him, but charity hasn't called me now, I don't know if I regret it." ”
The little eunuch's pale face suddenly showed a strange smile, and he said coldly: "My lord, don't worry!" He can't regret it! ”
Jiu'an nodded even if he knew, the wind outside the window was blowing in gusts, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, but this time no one was hiding.
Lu Qingjin easily got up early in the morning but found that the rain last night was too big, and it hasn't stopped until now! The temperature that had risen a little bit fell directly to the lowest, and the people who were freezing alive were uncomfortable, and after a while, the people at the door said loudly: "Just get up and wash up, don't come out if the weather is bad today, if you have anything you want, just tell the slave maid." ”
Lu Qingjin cleaned up and opened the door, and she shivered in a cold wind: "It's cold like this today, don't stand here, go and see if there are any good things in the warehouse to bring over, let's just have fun." ”
Xiao Si nodded happily when he heard this, and ran away, Lu Qingjin took a sip of porridge and felt a lot, sat on the edge of the bed and quietly looked at the wind and rain outside the window, and after a while, Xiao Si came over, but his eyes were a little strange: "Niangniang, take a look!" This was the new thing in the storehouse, and although the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that there was no danger, the slave still smelled black powder. ”
The thing in Xiao Si's hand is more like a few sticks, Lu Qingjin took it in his hand and smiled: "This thing is called fireworks, not only will it not explode after it is ignited, but it is also very good-looking, but this one is too rough to make if it rains, it will definitely not be able to be released, let's just change it." ”
Saying that, she picked up the fireworks and quietly dismantled them, even if Xiao Si didn't support this approach, she didn't say anything, the two of them were busy for a while before finishing it, the fireworks stick was a whole circle, Lu Qingjin put it diagonally by the window and lit it, and the colorful fireworks went straight to the sky in the wind and rain.
The people in the entire palace saw that the sky that was still gloomy suddenly exploded like flowers, everyone looked at it in surprise, Lu Qingjin stood quietly aside and did not speak, Xiao Si was very happy and said: "This thing is simply very good, if Niang Niang sells it, she will definitely make a lot of money!" ”
Lu Qingjin casually took off the fireworks stick that had been put off and replaced it with a new one, and said slowly: "I wanted to ask you for a long time, what kind of mess is this, I didn't see you so greedy for money when I was in the past!" ”
The smile on the corner of Xiao Si's mouth faded, and he sighed and said slowly: "It's not that the slave is greedy for money, it's just that many things are involuntary now, and the slave thinks about whether the mother doesn't have to worry so much after she has money, after all, money can make the ghost grind!" ”
Lu Qingjin looked back in surprise and saw her innocent eyes, which were full of trust, Lu Qingjin was silent for a long time and said slowly: "You are right!" As long as I work hard to make money, everything will change, everything will get better. It's like fireworks in this heavy rain. ”
Clusters of fireworks exploded in the dark sky like a little hope, and both of them watched quietly, and the heavy rain continued to fall without any signs of stopping.
In the imperial study, Qin Zhao looked at the clusters of fireworks in the sky that bloomed against the wind and rain, and smiled slowly: "Did you see it?" This is what my queen gave me! ”
Ji Chen stood behind her and looked at her silently for a while before he said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, don't be happy too early, I know what you want to do, but the purity that Dayu has managed to get now will be ruined, you have to think about it, the fireworks of the queen mother are just an accident, we can't deceive ourselves to this point." ”
Qin Zhao stood quietly for a while, the rain outside the window kept falling, and he whispered: "You already know that the people on the southwest border are restless, and you know that our good days are running out, what is the difference between doing it at this time and doing it after a while, it's just that you fight back and others take the initiative." Do you really want us to be killed and wounded? ”
Ji Chen turned around a few times and said almost angrily: "You are the emperor, of course you say it, but I have been staying in the southwest border for so many years, and I already know a lot about the combat effectiveness of the group of madmen in the southwest, so it makes no sense for us to take the initiative, because these people are not afraid of death, if there is a war of casualties, it must be us, but now the situation in the capital is still unclear, do you know what to do?" ”
Qin Zhao closed his eyes for a while before saying, "You're right, it's my recklessness in this matter, let's not talk about the future things first, let's talk about Simin'an's news!" ”
Li Chen said in a calm voice after a while: "The people I sent over are almost dead, and they don't even have corpses left, this kind of thing is definitely not possible at the age of the king, Si Min'an should be by the side of the king, their traces are really difficult to track, and now I know that they have gone to the Hu people, and the rest is difficult to say." ”
