Chapter 90: Repaying Virtue with Resentment

The fragrant grass feeds the east wind, and the strong wind looks back at the spring red.

In the world, only the Buddha is good, and my Buddha is free in the belly of the tiger.

Then he made a shaft according to Murong Ningyan's request, found a magnet, made a rotor, and asked his brother to find a blacksmith to make copper wire, copper sheets, zinc sheets, prepare paint, vinegar, and five hundred potatoes of the same size, cook them, and a box that can hold five hundred potatoes.

Everything was ready, Murong Ningyan asked Murong Zifeng to make another base, then connected the fan leaves with the base, and then used bamboo silk to weave a net cover on the surface of the fan blades, and at the same time, Murong Ningyan was not idle.

Five hundred boiled potatoes are connected in series with multiple strands of copper wire, neatly fixed in a wooden box, and then the exposed copper wire is brushed with paint, and the copper and zinc sheets connected to both ends of the copper wire are put into a small porcelain bottle filled with vinegar, and then the copper wire is connected to the copper nails and zinc nails, and a potato battery is ready.

Then connect the wire to the rotor of the fan, and then insert the wire into the socket of the battery, and the fan blade will rotate whirringly. The first electric fan was produced in this way in the Tang Dynasty.

When this matter spread, the military officials of the whole dynasty were all surprised. The emperor was even more fond of Murong Ningyan.

On this day, the emperor was taking a nap, and Murong Zifeng saw Murong Ningyan picking up the needle and thread to prepare for embroidery, so he asked her, "Yan'er, don't you rest for a while?" ”

Murong Ningyan glanced up at his brother and replied, "I feel in good spirits today, and I want to embroider clothes for the child." ”

Seeing that Murong Zifeng wanted to stop talking, Murong Ningyan saw this, and thought to himself, could it be that my brother had something unspeakable?

Then he said, "Brother, accompany me outside under the tree to breathe!" ”

Murong Zifeng nodded, helped Murong Ningyan to come to the shade of the tree to cool off, Murong Zifeng swallowed for a while, and then asked Murong Ningyan: "Yan'er, why doesn't the fan I made turn?" ”

It turned out that seeing that the electric fan made by Murong Ningyan was so good, he also quietly made one at home, but he saw that the potatoes did not move after a burst of smoke, and he didn't turn around, Murong Ningyan understood what was going on, but said mysteriously: "Brother, it's not that I blow it, it's not that you did it wrong, but you need to cast a spell." ”

Murong Ningyan knew that he couldn't tell others the principle of how to make a battery, even if it was his brother, wouldn't that rewrite history? Therefore, I made up some prevarication in the past.

Murong Zifeng was skeptical, and Murong Ningyan suddenly asked, "Brother, how is your relationship with your sister-in-law?" ”

"Why did Yan'er suddenly ask about this?" Murong Zifeng actually blushed.

"Seeing that you don't have children yet, I want to ask."

"I can't even see each other a few times a year, where is the child?" Murong Zifeng was a little depressed.

"I see, does that sister-in-law want you, do you want to sister-in-law?" Murong Ningyan asked knowingly, deliberately teasing Murong Zifeng.

"Of course I want to, your brother is not a monk." Murong Zifeng's face was flushed and slightly shy.

"Why don't I tell Your Majesty that I don't want my brother to be a royal guard?"

When Murong Zifeng heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he held Murong Ningyan's hands and said excitedly, "It's best to be like that!" I'm afraid that the emperor's brother-in-law won't agree! Actually, what I like most is the unrestrained travel life that used to be. ”

"This matter is on me, my brother will wait for good news!"

At night, Murong Ningyan and the emperor were lying on the bed, blowing a cool breeze, and the emperor stroked Murong Ningyan's big belly, and he could clearly feel the baby kicking his wide palm inside.

"Your Majesty, Yan'er begs for something!"

"Yan'er said if he had something, why do you still need to ask for it?"

"Your Majesty was kind enough to help my brother and sister-in-law get married, but my sister-in-law, you know, is completely a child's character, extremely attached to my brother, now, my brother is in the palace all the year round, and the two newlyweds Yan'er have been separated for a long time, which is a great damage to their feelings, I want to ask Your Majesty to remove my brother from his position and let him go home?"

"Yan'er, what you said is very reasonable, why didn't I think of this? I just thought that the harem was not peaceful, and left Zifeng by your side and me, and no one dared to bully you. Since this is the case, I will temporarily change to another henchman to be a guard, and from tomorrow, I will let Zifeng go home first and take a vacation for two months. ”

"Your Majesty, are you just on vacation? Why not just remove him from his post? ”

"Yan'er, I have never seen a queen like you, in all dynasties, the concubines are afraid that the court will not have their own power, and they will try their best to insert their family members or relatives into it, you are good, the only one in the court is Zifeng, and you want him to withdraw from the court."

"Yan'er just doesn't want to sacrifice her brother's happiness!"

"Just give him a holiday appropriately, don't forget, Yan'er, your brother is also a hot-blooded man, as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, he has the obligation to protect the country."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty's words are extremely true! It's Yan'er who doesn't think about it, so let's do it according to Your Majesty's wishes! Murong Ningyan saw that he couldn't touch the emperor's thoughts, so he had to give up.

"Come, kiss me as a thank you gift!"

"Your Majesty, watch out for our children!"

The next day, Murong Ningyan let Murong Zifeng move the quietly made potato battery, and said, "Brother, this is a spell, take it back and put it on." ”

"Without the emperor's permission, how dare my brother go!"

"Murong Zifeng obeys orders!" As he was talking, Grandpa Zeng brought the emperor's message.

"Your Majesty's dictation, the imperial guard Murong Zifeng, escort meritorious, reward a thousand taels of silver, give a Jinling City mansion, and put two months of family leave, and leave the palace from now on."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, Hail Blessed! ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for making 。。。 perfect" Before he finished shouting, he was pulled up by Murong Ningyan, "Brother, you are happy and confused, be polite to me, hurry back and surprise your sister-in-law!" Say hello to her on my behalf! ”

has always been accompanied by his brother, but now that Murong Zifeng is gone, Murong Ningyan, who has no relatives, misses it so much, but somehow, he suddenly remembered Murong Ningshuang, and not only did he not hate her in his heart, but he felt pity for her.

So he asked the emperor to go to the Huanyi Bureau to see Murong Ningshuang.

The emperor said: "She is a scheming person, Yan'er, you really want to see her, then you have to be careful!" Bring a few more fathers-in-law and guards with you. ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured! Yan'er only looked at her from a distance, and she didn't know how she was now, after all, the child was gone like that, and she must be very sad. ”

"Well, you go check it out!"

It is said that Han Zhaoyi, who used to tell right and wrong, now Han Miaoling was demoted to the Huanyi Bureau, and lay on the bed for half a month, and was injured after the board, and was rushed to wash clothes without bleeding. There are mountains of clothes to be washed all day long, and Han Miaoling, who was originally high, is really like a year.

In addition to the endless work, there is also a violent female official, who is a combination of fists and feet at every turn, for those who stay in the Huanyi Bureau, it is like being isolated from the world, and the outside world knows very little, which Han Miaoling still has an advantage, after all, she knows a lot of things outside the Huanyi Bureau, so including the fat female official, always likes to surround her after dinner and let her talk about the things in the palace, in fact, the purpose of asking her to talk is nothing more than to hear more about Murong Ningyan.

Yes, this fat female official is Murong Ningshuang, you must ask, how did she become a female palace?

With her domineering personality and a lot of ghost ideas in her head, it is still easy to get a small female palace in this Huanyi Bureau.

There are many reasons to care for each other, in addition to family and friendship mutual care, there are two kinds, one is the silent care for the person you love deeply, and the other is the involuntary concern for the person you hate.

"Han Miaoling, tell me how you and the emperor are intimate?" Murong Ningshuang was thinking, it is estimated that among these people in the Huanyi Bureau, there are only a few people who have tasted the taste of men.

Han Miaoling was ready to use the old method to perfunctory the past, but Murong Ningshuang didn't intend to let it go: "If you don't talk about it, you won't be allowed to eat tomorrow." ”

Han Miaoling saw that the fat female official seemed to be particularly interested in this matter, and had said that she wanted her to talk about it several times, but she was prevaricated, and today she brought up the old story again, it seems that she has to talk about it today, and thought: This dead fat woman is really annoying, isn't this rubbing salt on other people's wounds?

But in desperation, he still opened his mouth: "To be honest, since the day I was crowned Zhaoyi, the emperor has never been to my house, where did I get intimacy, I am still a virgin like you." When Han Miaoling said this, her eyes were full of shame and resentment.

"What's going on? Why? Everyone was surprised, but only the fat lady had the right to ask.

Han Miaoling said with great loss: "It's not because Your Majesty has a queen who is like a flower and can sing and dance. It's not good to be spoiled every day, and there is nothing wrong with other concubines at all. ”

"Hmph, she's not a good thing, for the sake of imperial power and wealth, she can also abandon her beloved."

"Isn't the queen's sweetheart the emperor? It is said that His Majesty fell in love with the queen before he ascended the throne, and the queen was still a singer in Jinling City, called Murong Ningyan, and later His Majesty decreed that before she entered the palace, she was succeeded to the minister Zhou Zong. ”

"Wait, what do you say? The queen was a singer? Murong Ningshuang showed a look of surprise and contempt.

"Yes, that's something that a lot of people know."

"By the way, my lord, why is it so similar to your name?" Someone asked.

"Your Excellency knows the Queen?"

"How do you know? She is my half-sister. It is because of her that I have fallen into such a situation. But she is good, ruthless and unrighteous, regardless of sibling feelings, hurting her beloved, can she sit comfortably in this queen's position? Murong Ningshuang gritted her teeth with hatred, and her eyes roared with anger.

For Murong Ningshuang to get fat again, you must ask: Didn't she lose weight with Murong Ningyan when she was in the palace? Why is it the chubby female officer here? At that time, he was indeed thin, but since he entered the palace, he has not been favored by the emperor, and he was finally named a beauty, and he used tricks to get the favor of the emperor for a while. But because of her greed for wanting to be the only favor, she designed to frame Su Guifei for having a miscarriage, and as a result, she let herself live in the dark Huanyi Bureau, and she was no longer blessed to accept the position of concubine.

Later, with her clever brain, and her grandfather's crooked idea of wanting to lend seeds to have children, she deceived the emperor into thinking that she was pregnant with his dragon son, so that she could get out of this tired Huanyi Bureau, but she never thought that the first emperor died, but fortunately, the fetus in the womb made her mother more expensive than her son, and became the imperial concubine. However, Murong Ningshuang was not born to be a person of peace. still thought that one day she could become the real queen mother, but the crown prince did not succeed, but exposed the old Dier, and the reason why she was not executed was that the emperor remembered her sisterhood with Murong Ningyan. But in her hateful heart, everything is someone else's fault, how can she accept this affection?

She is discouraged, where can she care about her appearance and appearance, and she no longer cares about maintaining her figure, especially when she is in the female palace, she lacks reasonable exercise, and often eats seas, and her body is like an inflated balloon, watching it swell day by day.
