Chapter 39 The Emperor Wants to Make Her Brother the Emperor!
Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother could not wait to take the paper and several books handed over by Concubine Liu.
Of course, she did not have time to read all the thick books, so she could only focus on the pages written by Concubine Liu.
It talked about the new silk separation technology, hot water and salt, to accelerate the separation of silk.
After seeing this, the Queen Mother was anxious to let the palace maid try it.
Looking further back, it was the new thread separation machine, "It can actually separate five threads at the same time, just step on the pedal?"
This speed is three to five times faster than before, and it saves manpower!
"Okay, send this to the emperor quickly." The Queen Mother was impatient and asked the personal nanny to go to the front to find the emperor now.
"Queen Mother, the emperor has not left the court yet." The nanny advised.
"Then you go there and wait, and show it to him as soon as the emperor leaves the court, and ask the people in the Ministry of Works to make it and try it immediately."
The Queen Mother could not wait at all. Her well-maintained face had only some wrinkles at the end of her eyes, and she was a little excited and red at this moment.
"Three days, no, let them make it as soon as possible, and bring one to me so that I can try it out first."
The Queen Mother said, and urged the nanny to go.
After waiting for the other party to leave, the Queen Mother looked at the several weaving methods in her hand again and again.
Looking at Concubine Liu again, her eyes were so kind and a little ashamed.
"Just now I heard the Queen tell you about you and Concubine Yu, I thought you, Concubine Liu, were competitive and quarreled with Concubine Yu. Alas, I misunderstood you, Concubine Liu."
The Queen Mother was actually very simple and told the truth.
Concubine Liu was surprised.
The Queen sitting next to her turned blue and black.
"Concubine Liu, you are a good person." The Queen Mother made a direct conclusion.
"When I first married the late emperor, he was still the crown prince. At that time, Emperor Xiaozong said that most people made a living by farming and weaving. So we, the descendants of our royal family, must not forget the importance of farming and weaving."
"When the late emperor was alive, I personally wove cloth every year."
The queen's face became even uglier.
Is the queen mother alluding to her? Meaning that she didn't do a good job as the queen? Not as good as Concubine Liu!
The queen gritted her teeth and looked at Concubine Liu, and saw that she still looked obedient, and her heart was even more unbearable.
I never expected that she actually thought that Concubine Liu was low-key, but who would have thought that this was a dog that bites people without barking!
"Concubine Liu, why did you suddenly think of reading books and studying weaving?" The queen asked with ulterior motives, "I don't think I heard that you were interested in these things before."
The queen mother heard this and looked over curiously.
Concubine Liu frowned, but she was prepared in her heart. "The Yellow River has flooded recently. I think winter is approaching and the people have no place to live. I am afraid it will be difficult to survive the winter."
"I was thinking about whether I could weave cloth to make winter clothes for them. Anyway, I have nothing to do in the palace."
When the Queen Mother heard this, she could hardly hide the admiration in her eyes, "You are kind-hearted."
Concubine Liu looked natural, "I came here today, in addition to showing the Queen Mother the improved weaving technique, I also thought that you have a high prestige among the people, and you are trusted by the people, especially women."
"I was thinking about whether I could use the Queen Mother's help to let the women in the people also make winter clothes together."
The Queen Mother was overjoyed when she heard this.
This is the time to improve prestige!
Usually, when people talk about the royal family, they think of the emperor and the previous emperor, but no one has ever mentioned the women in the harem, or her, the Queen Mother...
But why?
She has been worried a lot from being the Crown Princess, to the Queen, and now the Queen Mother.
If she follows what Concubine Liu said and makes winter clothes for refugees, she will be praised by the people and written into history books!
"Good, good, good!" The Queen Mother became more and more excited as she thought about it, "Concubine Liu, you said it very well. I think so too. I will help you make winter clothes to help refugees!"
The Queen Mother immediately threw the Queen aside and had a heated discussion with Concubine Liu about which first-rank and second-rank ladies could be called over to mobilize the wives of officials in the family to work together and donate money!
The Queen almost twisted the handkerchief in her hand!
What's going on with this Liu family!
*
In Chonghua Palace, Xiao Chuchu was held in her brother Cheng Gan's arms and blinked.
She was shocked and complained while watching the live broadcast in Cining Palace.
[How can my mother know this improved weaving technique? ]
[Is the system reliable? What did you give me? ]
What is the system? The fifth prince Cheng Gan looked confused.
Is this something from the fairy world?
[It seems that the technologies given by the system are all the technologies that the working people of this era can come up with with a little effort. ]
[That's right, China has a history of 5,000 years, and there are countless crystallizations of wisdom. ]
Xiao Chuchu understood it after a little thought.
What the system gave was not something that came out of thin air.
It was the split-line loom and the military formation that existed in the development of history... but it was more advanced than now.
According to the historical trajectory, they will be invented sooner or later.
[I know, my body fragrance has just been upgraded. People who are within one step of me can smell it and their attention will be focused and their wisdom will double. ]
[My mother has become smarter! ]
The fifth prince, who was holding Chuchu, was standing one step away from her and was stunned.
The fragrance on his sister's body has such an effect?
No wonder he felt that the book was much easier to memorize just now. The obscure articles that the master said were originally taught to the older eldest brother. He and his sixth brother were too young to understand.
But just now, the fifth prince recalled these articles and felt that he understood them!
The fifth prince Chenggan held his sister and suddenly felt his arms heavy.
It was as if he was holding a rare treasure, a blessing from heaven.
This must be the sister he got after doing good deeds in several lifetimes!
The fifth prince slowed down his movements and breathing, not daring to disturb his sister.
Xiao Chuchu's speculation became bolder, [Well, it must be because of the body fragrance. ]
[Mother wanted to make winter clothes and study weaving just now. When she smelled my scent, she came up with the weaving technology decades later! ]
[That makes sense~]
[In the future, I will stay with my mother more, and I will also stay with my brother and grandma~]
The fifth prince nodded in his heart. He will read books next to his sister in the future~
[Oh, the queen mother rewarded my mother——hehehe, the queen was so angry that her face turned green. ]
The fifth prince raised his mouth when he heard it.
"Fifth prince, it's time to go to the study." The eunuch reminded him.
The fifth prince sighed, and then reluctantly put down his sister.
It would be great if he could take his sister to the study.
In this way, he would probably understand and memorize all the articles after reading them once.
Thinking so, the fifth prince asked the eunuch to pack up the books, kissed his sister's little hand, and watched the nanny pick up Chuchu with his own eyes. Only then did he feel at ease and go to the study.
The study room has not been peaceful recently.
As soon as the fifth prince Cheng Gan entered, he saw his third brother sitting in the last row - the biological son of Concubine Fu Cha, and the new emperor who killed him because of his sister's fear of his talent.
Cheng Gan was in a bad mood immediately.
But after he reached his seat, he heard the voices of his fourth brother and seventh brother.
"Third brother, is your mother okay? Who would have thought that your mother was originally a concubine, and your grandfather was a dignified elder, but she was punished by the emperor and given the word "yu" in "elm wood", and demoted to a concubine."
"Hahaha, my mother said that the emperor was saying that your mother was stupid, you are stupid too, and your whole family is stupid!"
The fourth prince usually went out and came in with the third prince.
But in the past, the third prince's mother was Concubine Fu Cha, and he was more noble than the fourth prince born to Concubine Li.
It's different now.
Concubine Fu Cha lost power, and Concubine Li obviously laughed at them a lot.
The fourth prince followed suit, "My mother told me to play with you less in the future, so that I won't be like you, a blockhead."
The third prince clenched his fists and trembled all over.
But he bit his lip and didn't stand up.
His mother was already disliked by his father. If he caused trouble again and made his father angry, his mother might be banished to the cold palace.
In recent days, not only the fourth prince, but also the eunuchs, maids and even the masters of the upper study who were usually respectful to him began to look down on him.
This is the palace!
Family affection does not exist!
The third prince closed his eyes in pain.
The fourth prince snatched the book on his desk and threw it on the ground, "Anyway, you are stupid, you don't have to read it."
The fifth prince Cheng Gan turned around and frowned, "Fourth brother, you've had enough!"
The entire upper study was silent for a moment.
Cheng Gan has always been a little adult, with a cold face, rarely talking to other princes, and rarely meddling in other people's affairs.
But today is different.
Several princes looked at him in surprise.
"Fifth brother, you are still speaking for him? The third brother used to bully you a lot." The fourth prince sneered.
Cheng Gan closed his eyes.
According to his sister's voice, the national strength of Jingguo is only one-fifth of Yuanmuguo!
In the ranking of neighboring countries, the national strength of Jingguo is outside the top 20.
These princes don't know how to make progress, but only know how to quarrel, only know how to be jealous of each other, and can't stand the good of brothers!
If the princes are like this, what about the sons of other ministers? Aren't they all dandies!
If everyone is like this, every family is like this, and one generation is worse than the next, Jingguo will really perish!
"I won't help anyone."
Cheng Gan turned the book with a cold face.
"I only know that it's time to read now!"
*
After the emperor Xiao Yunzhou left the court, he hurried to Donghua Palace in a good mood.
"Go to Concubine Liu. She must be waiting for news from her father."
But before he took a step, he was persuaded by Wei Zheng.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Liu is at the Queen Mother's place and she said she wants to make winter clothes for the refugees."
The emperor was shocked and then smiled.
"Everyone in the Liu family is dedicated to the people."
If this Concubine Liu were a man, she would definitely be a good official.
He admired her even more.
"Then go to the study room." He was going to check his son's study.
The incident of Prince Liao made him more vigilant and pay attention to the education of the princes.
Soon, the emperor stood outside the window of the study room and heard the voice of the fifth prince.
"I don't help anyone."
"I only know that as princes, we study and write here not to fight for face among brothers."
"But we study so that one day, when the Yellow River floods again, we know what to do!"
"We study so that one day, we can drive away the enemies who offend our Jing country."
"We study so that one day, people will be afraid of hearing about our Jing country and will not dare to bully us!"
"If you, fourth brother, have done this, no matter how you quarrel with the third brother, even if you fight, I don't care."
Emperor Xiao Yunzhou was stunned for a moment.
He was outside the window, listening to the voice of the fifth prince, and he felt excited all over, and his blood rushed with it!
What a "study for fear of hearing about our Jing country"!
*
[Ding, your brother, the fifth prince, has become the most popular prince in the heart of Emperor Xiao Yunzhou. ]
[Please keep up the good work, and you may inherit the throne. ]
Xiao Chuchu was nursing out of boredom when she was suddenly startled by the system reminder.
