Xiao Dezi has been following the emperor all the year round, and he has already practiced a good eyesight, and after looking at the emperor's expression slightly, he said to Chen Jintong with a happy face: "Miss Chen Er has solved her urgent need, there was a frost disaster in the area from Liangzhou to Youzhou, and countless cattle and sheep were frozen to death. ”

"I see!" Chen Jintong knew in his heart that there should be a cold spring, and if the anti-freezing measures are not in place, it will immediately cause huge losses.

According to these descriptions, Chen Jintong vaguely painted a scene in her mind, the place where a large number of cattle and sheep froze to death should be similar to the current grassland, and she suddenly thought in her heart that if it was like a modern yurt, it was really common to use straw coal, which was likely to cause carbon dioxide poisoning.

"Father-in-law De, may I ask if the construction of houses in that area is different from that in the capital." Chen Jintong bowed and asked Xiao Dezi for advice, most of the houses of these big families in the capital are bright; The poor can't afford to burn coal, so they don't burn it overnight, but there are very few problems, but her information doesn't indicate this situation, and if she doesn't make it clear that something happened, she will get into big trouble in the future.

"Miss Chen didn't know that the Youzhou area lives by raising cattle and sheep, and every season moves with the pastures, and most of the houses live in yurts, which is very different from the capital." Although Xiao Dezi didn't know why Chen Jintong asked this, he didn't say much and answered her respectfully.

After getting the confirmation, Chen Jintong hurriedly reminded the emperor: "Your Majesty, coal burning will produce some harmful things to people and animals, although it will not directly affect the body, but if the house is not ventilated, it may cause people to be poisoned." ”

"You know a lot!" The emperor has changed a lot of views of Chen Jintong at this time, the monarch likes capable people, the first time I saw Chen Jintong, I felt that although she was smart but did not know the height of the sky, now I see that she does have some ability, but I appreciate it more.

Chen Jintong was about to answer, but the emperor asked again: "What reward do you want?" "Appreciation, appreciation, the emperor still wants to know how Chen Jintong will choose, he has already asked people to investigate the matter of Mingyue Villa clearly, thinking of her dying appearance in order to avenge her injury, he really wants to know if Chen Jintong will rely on the credit to ask him to find out the matter of Yueshan Villa, so he didn't promise her anything, just asked her what she wanted.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers want to dare to ask the emperor for a favor, so that I have the right to supervise and guide, and follow up the manufacturing of straw coal throughout the process." Hearing the emperor ask her twice what she wanted, Chen Jintong didn't twist it, and asked for it generously.

This is not expected by the emperor, but he has also thought about this method, it is more safe to have Chen Jintong's personal guidance, but, considering that she is a daughter, there is no precedent for women to be officials in this dynasty, and it is not good for a woman to mix with men.

"Miss Chen Er, this is not a good thing, what do you say is a girl mixed with men, besides, the prime minister will not be allowed to know it." The emperor seemed to be thinking, but Xiao Dezi understood in an instant and said everything that should be said.

"Father-in-law, what the prime minister is worried about is a family matter, for personal reasons; What I do is for the people and for the public; Which is more important than the public and private? Chen Jintong glanced at the emperor on the side as he spoke, and saw that there was no difference in the emperor's face, and then said: "Besides, those who achieve great things are not informal, as long as Your Majesty agrees, I will do this with all my heart." "Finally, simply bow on your knees:

"Please approve your majesty!" She saw that the emperor had this idea, but after hesitating for a moment, she needed a step now.

"In that case, then it's allowed!" The emperor stroked his beard, was very satisfied, and said to Xiao Dezi: "I will leave this matter to you to arrange." ”

The emperor asked another detailed question about straw coal, and decided on the person to do it, so he sent Chen Jintong down.

Who knows, out of the Qinzheng Palace, before bypassing the two palace walls, Chen Jintong was directly blocked by the group, it was Queen Chen, who was sitting in a golden chariot facing them. The little eunuch who led the way hurriedly took Chen Jintong to salute, but after saluting, no one asked them to get up for a long time.

Intuition Queen Chen is not a simple person, and it is definitely not a road with her, Chen Jintong just wanted to get away from Queen Chen as soon as possible, and returned to her small courtyard early, however, Queen Chen didn't want her to be happy.

"It's Hitomi!" I hadn't listened to Empress Chen speak carefully before, but now it sounded like a shallow voice, but it had a majestic wind. "Yes!" To bring down the Chen family, Queen Chen is a big tree in front of him, the emperor is an extremely smart person, he can love Queen Chen so much, Queen Chen is definitely not a simple person, although Chen Jintong has no good impression of Queen Chen, it is impossible to show it, and salute obediently: "Courtier Chen Jintong, meet the queen!" ”

"Get up, you don't have to be so angry, speaking of which, you are my own niece, and it is reasonable to call me a little aunt." Empress Chen sat high on the sedan chair, Chen Jintong couldn't see her expression, not to mention seeing the queen look up and look directly, it was also disrespectful.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Some people were not sure of Queen Chen's path, and Chen Jintong didn't dare to kiss rashly as she said, so she simply kept silent except for saluting.

"Yuying hasn't been in the palace for a long time, the palace is stuffy, you can go with me!" Without giving Chen Jintong a chance to refuse, Empress Chen signaled the little eunuch to carry the sedan chair forward as she spoke.

It seems that she really just asked her to walk around, Queen Chen didn't ask her other chores, but there was a sentence that said simple homely words, Chen Jintong replied in an orderly manner according to etiquette, but her heart became more and more wrong, Queen Chen came in the opposite direction of the Qinzheng Palace, it was all dinner time, why didn't she come here in the dormitory, did she come to find the emperor, but the emperor didn't see her and took her everywhere, is it really a relief from boredom?

After walking for a while, Chen Jintong's feet seemed to have blisters, hot and painful, the little eunuch who carried the sedan chair looked at the body was not strong, and his strength was very great, so he kept walking in front at a uniform speed, and he had to abide by various etiquette when entering the palace.

Finally, Chen Jintong estimated that it should be more than an hour, and Queen Chen opened the golden mouth to let her go back, fortunately, the little eunuch who led the way has been following, otherwise she doesn't know where to go from when she goes around.

Sitting in the carriage, she originally wanted to take a nap by leaning, but she always felt a little uneasy in her heart, thinking that she couldn't understand Queen Chen's thoughts and made her a little bored, and laughed at herself in her heart.

When he arrived at the Hou Mansion, he felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Chen Jintong did not stop in the front courtyard, and went back to his small courtyard directly.
