"Mother, the hair cream has been retrieved." Aqi stepped into the main hall with a box wrapped in a silk handkerchief.

Before he could get closer, Ai Qing smelled a faint fragrance, frowned and ordered, "You don't have to bring it in, let the girl carefully seal it and put it in the warehouse." ”

"Yes," Aqi should hand the box in her hand to the girl outside the door, and then turned around and came in after giving the order.

"Niangniang, Aqi's smell of this hair cream seems to be stronger than before, and you can smell it through the box." Ah Qi had smelled the smell of the box last time, and was naturally very familiar with the smell of this musk.

"Not bad! The musk in these two boxes seems to have aggravated a bit, and it seems that someone can't bear it. Ai Qing snorted lightly, a trace of sharp brilliance flashed in her eyes, but her face was still unfazed.

"Isn't it? Ah Qi said according to Niangniang's instructions that you are using that hair cream every day, and Princess Heng's face couldn't be suppressed. Ah Qi felt creepy when she thought of Chu Yin's exaggerated little face.

"She can't have children just because I used that ointment, isn't she going to be happy? The royal family has always put the heirs first, and I think that Pilan's harem is such an intrigue that can raise her vicious heart now. Ai Qing said this, but accidentally remembered Gu Sichen, his harem of more than 100 concubines, I don't know how desperate it is.

When it came to childbirth, Ah Qi suddenly thought of something, so she asked: "Niangniang, it has been some time since I refused to have a slippery fetus last time, and the emperor has stayed in Qinghua Hall every day, and he has all kinds of grace to his mother...... It's time for the mother. ”

Hearing the words 'all kinds of grace', Ai Qing's face turned red, and she spit out a sentence with slight anger: "You girl, why is it so fast." ”

Although he said this, his hand unconsciously touched his pulse, there are too many trivial things these days, and he has not thought of taking his pulse for a long time.

Ah Qi looked at her mother's expression, she seemed to be a little more nervous than her, and seeing that Ai Qing didn't speak for a long time, she cautiously asked, "Is there any?" Empress? ”

"What's the matter?" As soon as Mu Chun Jue stepped into the threshold, he followed Ah Qi's words and asked.

Seeing that Mu Chun had returned, Ai Qing removed the fingertips pressed on his wrist, raised his head and commanded quietly: "Ah Qi, go make tea for the emperor." ”

"Yes!" Although Ah Qi did not wait for an answer, he could only respond and retreat.

"The emperor seems to be very happy?" Ai Qing looked at Mu Chun's eyebrows and eyes, and his steps were very brisk, and he knew that there must be something happy.

Mu Chun decided to walk up to Ai Qing and sit down and said, "Eldest sister is coming back." ”

"Princess Sakura?"

"Well, I received the letter of state in the morning today, the eldest sister has set off from Luoguo with Beizi and the county lord, according to the days, you will arrive at the Chiyun border in seven or eight days, Qin'er has not been out of the capital for a long time, how about I take you to pick them up in person?"

Mu Chun has never been a person who will show joy and anger on his face, but now seeing him so happy, Ai Qing knows that Mu Luoying, the eldest sister, must be a very important existence in Mu Chun's determination.

Ai Qing unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, didn't respond to his words, just smiled and asked, "Then can you tell your father and mother?" ”

"Well, I have ordered someone to spread the news, if my father and queen mother know that Luo Ying is back, no matter how beautiful the mountains and rivers are, I will not want to look at them again, and I will rush back quickly."

Ai Qing looked at him happily, and he was also smiling at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. He swallowed back the other good news he wanted to say, and thought about making him happy again every other day.

------

In the past two days, the secret merchants of various countries have also spread the news, and the ancient Luo Pilan Luo Cave has made arrangements, and only the craftsmen need to be sent to achieve operation.

As for Lou Qi, after that war, several forces were born in the DPRK and China, and the royal family and the people were in turmoil. Large merchants are not suitable for establishment, so Mu Chun decided to send more craftsmen to break them into pieces and open small merchants in Louqi, firstly, to avoid the impact of Louqi's civil war, and secondly, the identity of the dark merchant is not easy to detect.

The new code has also been issued, and the scribes recruited from various places and the masters and officials in the yamen have begun to study the major and important cases in their respective jurisdictions in recent years.

Ai Qing read the stories presented by the officials one after another, and really admired the ability of these people to make up stories. It is touching and thought-provoking, and I have to sigh that literature is really the greatest product of this era.

Mu Chun saw that she was reading carefully, so he also buried his head and looked at the fold, since the electric lights and newly made small objects circulated in the various cities, Chiyun's treasury was slowly filled.

Most of the money came from the city's merchants and gentry, who seemed to see the possession of new objects as a symbol of status and power, and they spared no expense to squeeze their heads into the pockets of new and low-cost objects.

Seeing that the number of people crying poor gradually decreased, and the number of sycophants gradually increased, Mu Chun made some judgments in his determination. I only feel that this delicate little wife beside me is like a noble person from God. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has the ability to turn stones into gold and sprinkle beans into soldiers.

Mu Chun was thinking about it, when he saw Ai Qing raise his head and twist his eyebrows innocently and said, "Your Majesty, I'm hungry." ”

"Hungry again?" Mu Chunju's expression was surprised, it was naturally not difficult to eat anything in this palace at any time, but recently this little wife seemed to be too good at eating.

"Hmm!" Ai Qing nodded, then buried her head again and said, "I want to eat sour jujube cake." ”

"Good! I command people to do it. Mu Chun put down the fold in his hand and shouted outside the door: "Little Weizi." ”

"Wow!"

"Go to the dining room and make some sour jujube cakes."

"Yes!" Xiao Weizi walked out, he had already gone to the imperial dining room six times today, as a slave, he naturally didn't dare to complain about anything, but after going too much, the imperial chef almost thought that he wanted to eat.

Mu Chun saw Xiao Weizi close the door, picked up the pen and put it back.

"Qin'er, you can eat like this, don't you?"

"I think Qin'er can eat it, does the emperor dislike Qin'er for being fat?" Ai Qing saw that he seemed to be a little aware, but she pretended to be angry and put down the book and brushed her face.

Although Mu Chun still wanted to ask something, but after thinking about it, she was proficient in medical skills, how could she not say it if she was pregnant. Although she has nothing to face since that slippage, she often takes the initiative to cater to her during intercourse, so you know how much she wants children. Now, if she asks rashly, only to find out that she is not pregnant, it will definitely put pressure on her.

Thinking of this, Mu Chun swallowed back the question in his heart, only smiled and said, "How can I think you are fat, you are so slender, you should eat more." ”

Seeing that he didn't ask again, Ai Qing stuck out his tongue and picked up the book again and continued to read. Thinking in their hearts, the Emperor and the Queen Mother are also coming back, so it is better to wait for them to come back and announce it, they will be very happy.

With the experience of slipping tires last time, Ai Qing was very careful this time, she would probe her pulse every day, and she ordered the wolf soldiers to strengthen the monitoring of Chu Yin at night, but fortunately, she may have thought that the musk hair cream had succeeded, and she did not do anything else.

Mu Chunju originally planned to take Ai Qing to meet Mu Luoying's mother and son, but there was no one in the palace who could be completely trusted to be in charge of the government for a while, and General Zhou's qualifications were not enough to convince the public, so he wanted to wait for the Emperor Taishang to return to the palace to preside over the court and then go out of the city to greet him, but the Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager were anxious, and they met Mu Luoying's escort team halfway, and after receiving the news, Mu Chunzhu could only continue to stay in the court and wait for them to return.

There is no need to go out of the city again, Ai Qing has nothing to do in the past two days, so he took out the drawings of oil production and continued to sketch, there is no modern machinery in this world, and it is not easy to dig such a deep oil well.

In the past, those small objects could do whatever they wanted, but now the matter of sinking a well has never been touched, and they can only be studied from scratch using the knowledge of physics they learned in the past. However, more and more generators have been sold, and drilling oil wells has naturally become a rigid demand, and oil must be pumped out as soon as possible to supply more and more generators.

I thought about it for several days, but I still didn't have a clue about this unfamiliar field. Ai Qing could only order someone to invite the head of Chongyuan Dao, who was in retreat in the palace, to see if he would have any ideas.
