Chapter 240: Truth

Lu Man didn't expect that his younger brother was secretly treating incurable diseases, and he was very pleased with his brother's diligence, and felt that this younger brother was diligent and sensible. often reminds him to pay attention to his body, and at the same time, he will also let people stew some supplements for him.

At the end of April 12, Lu Man sat alone in the study and read, but he couldn't read it. The continuous spring rain began to rain from the morning before yesterday, and it did not stop for two days and two nights.

The eldest princess sent someone to inform Lu Man early in the morning, asking her not to go to Heming Hall to ask for peace and rest at home. He also said that he had just received the news that the emperor had asked people to send the "things" to the border overnight.

Eight days ago, the emperor received an expedited 800-mile rush from the border pass, and the Xie family's army had just won a great victory, which greatly boosted the morale of our army. And in this big victory, Jiang Zhanwei made a great contribution. Because the black riot battalion led by him penetrated into the back of the enemy's vanguard army, and unwittingly attacked the enemy's waist, cutting off their heads and tails, and taking them by surprise...... At the same time, Xie Dashuai asked the emperor to buy the existing reading glasses, and asked Jiang Zhanwei's wife to make binoculars and send them to the border pass, which was the "magic weapon" for winning the battle. He also asked the Ministry of Industry to make another 1,000 sets of "camouflage uniforms" and send them to the border gates to wear them for soldiers on special tasks. It is also said that this kind of clothing was designed by Jiang Zhanwei, and it has a miraculous effect on the visual inspection of confusing the enemy.

Of course, the telescope is a top military secret, and only the emperor, the crown prince, as well as Zhang Shoufu, An Guogong, Old Grandfather Xie, Zhou Shangshu and a few other people know.

The emperor immediately issued a holy decree, whoever has reading glasses will immediately dedicate them to the court, and the court will be of great use. Of course, the court will not ask for it in vain, and will symbolically pay two hundred taels of silver to buy.

Within a few days, the court received nine pairs of reading glasses one after another, and the people who offered the glasses were very knowledgeable about current affairs, and they were not short of money, and they did not ask for the two hundred taels of silver. Among these people, they also include the princess of Changting and the princess of Lao He. The emperor gave his reading glasses again and made up ten pairs.

The emperor asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to the eldest princess's mansion in person with ten pairs of reading glasses, and told the eldest princess and Lu Man about it. The prince first praised Jiang Saburo for his wisdom and strategy, and then looked at Lu Man with satisfaction, praising her for her "ice and snow smartness" and "extreme intelligence", and even made this kind of artifact, which made a miraculous contribution to the court.

Lu Man hummed secretly in his heart, that Jiang Zhanwei is really not a gentleman, and he is very shameless. It's embarrassing to say that the camouflage uniform was designed by him! If he had told him how to make a telescope, he would have shamelessly said that the telescope was also designed by him.

However, Lu Man really doesn't want to show any "extreme intelligence" outside the medical field. She hurriedly smiled and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an overreputation. I don't have much other skills, but I have a super good memory, and I can almost remember it. The telescope was something I saw in a miscellaneous book when I was a child, and when I saw the glasses from outside the fan a few days ago, I remembered that miscellaneous book. I thought I'd give it a try, but I didn't know it was really made. ”

The prince laughed, "It's also a great skill to remember it." This palace will take your credit to Jiang Saburo, and his future is even greater. ”

Lu Man smiled happily on the surface, but actually complained wildly in his heart. In ancient times, people paid attention to what kind of husband was honorable and his wife was expensive, and the wife's merits should be recorded on her husband, in the hope that her husband would be promoted to become rich and make his wife a shadow.

There is a saying in ancient times that a penchant husband is looking for a marquis. There was a saying in the previous life, being promoted to get rich and killing his wife. Both sentences have the same meaning, that is, the higher the husband climbs, the less the wife will have a good life. The fact that ancient and modern people, who are 10,000 miles apart in philosophy, are surprisingly similar in this regard shows that this law is absolutely universally true.

Where is there a wife who has made a meritorious service, and does not reward the wife, but remembers the reason for the husband. Even if you reward her with some gold, silver and jewelry, it will also make her waist bulge a little. It's infuriating!

The prince is like this, he should have a great relationship with Jiang Zhanwei in private, and he is looking for every opportunity to give Jiang Zhanwei a gold sticker to facilitate his promotion......

She thought so, she didn't dare to say it when she was drunk, and she also thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his compassion for Jiang Zhanwei. The eldest princess was very happy, and as soon as the prince left, he rewarded Lu Man with two sets of inlaid jade heads, four pieces of makeup satin, and a small red sandalwood jade small kang.

After returning to Donghui Courtyard, Lu Man immediately asked Liu Xin to secretly make ten copper pipes, and only at noon yesterday did he make ten pairs of binoculars and take them to Heming Hall, and the eldest princess personally sent them to the palace in the rain.

The old lady came back in the evening. She was reluctant to go to Heming Hall on a rainy day with a big belly, so she made a special trip to Donghui Temple. She smiled with crooked eyebrows, learning from the gaffe of the emperor and a few old ministers when they looked at the telescope, "...... Hahaha, Old Man Xie almost flashed his old waist, and An Guogong and Zhou Shangshu's mouths were open and closed. It is said that the Great Chu army has this kind of artifact, and the defeat of the enemy army is just around the corner. The emperor is even more overjoyed, the palace has not seen the emperor laugh so happily for many years......"

The old lady and Lu Man both guessed that if Xie Dashuai found the telescope in Jiang Zhanwei's hand, he would definitely take the telescope away unceremoniously. Therefore, the old lady specifically told the emperor that these ten pairs of telescopes must be given to Jiang Zhan as the only one.

Because the emperor was happy, he rewarded Lu Man's two carts of things, all of which were utensils, ornaments, brocade or something, and the eldest princess asked people to send them to Donghui Courtyard.

Lu Man estimated that these things were also worth thousands of taels of silver. It's not that she's a fan of money, and the expansion of Tongrentang will cost some money. These things can't be sold if they are marked, but they can still be sold if they are not marked.

Lu Man put down the medical book in his hand, stood in front of the window and looked at the drizzle of raindrops falling from the sky, falling on the trees and bluestone slabs, and then the rain dripped down the leaves and eaves, forming small puddles, as well as a yard of red and fallen leaves. The spring breeze is blowing, with the fragrance of flowers and plants, and the smell of moisture.

She thought of the prince's slightly pale face, and she always felt that the prince might have some hidden disease. I don't know if he doesn't know it now, or if he's doing it in secret.

In front of the eldest princess, she endured it for a few times before she endured it back. If the prince didn't know, and she said it, maybe she would have made a meritorious service. If the crown prince, the emperor, and the queen all know, but they don't want others to know, they will be unlucky.

Suddenly, she felt a pang of discomfort in her stomach, as if something was throbbing in her stomach. She frowned before she reacted, ah, this should be fetal movement!

For the first time, she felt the child moving, and she was so excited that tears were about to come out. She stroked her stomach for a long time, wanting to feel the magical and exciting beating again.
