Chun Ning was startled.

It feels like being caught by the teacher in class as a child.

She glanced at Qin Yaoguang in panic.

It was not that they wanted to hide it from the Empress Dowager on purpose. It was really because Chang Zhen's matter was related to a series of dangerous events that had occurred in the villa. They did not want the Empress Dowager to know about it and make her worry.

Since it's all in the past, why bother talking about it?

Qin Yaoguang gave her a look, meaning: Don't panic.

She looked up at the Empress Dowager and said with a smile, "Mother, we are talking about your birthday gift!"

"Two mischievous ghosts."

The Empress Dowager had no doubts and told Madam Zhou to serve the meal.

"Have lunch early, you two should take a good nap. You won't be so free in the afternoon!"

On the big day of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, both the court and the harem were busy preparing for the celebration.

Only the three of them can still be lazy at this moment.

In the Xining Palace, there were already commonly used items for the two princesses, and Qin Yaoguang brought some more in, which was convenient at this moment.

After dinner, Qin Yaoguang said, "Mother, please stay in the same room with us. There's no one else here anyway, and this soft couch is big enough for the two of us sisters to sleep on."

The Queen Mother agreed.

Not to mention after the two sisters got married, even when they were children, because they were in the royal family, the three of them had never been so close.

The Empress Dowager's life was even more unbridled than that of the Empress.

Seeing that her master was in a very good mood, Nanny Zhou couldn't stop smiling. She brought in a few silk quilts that had been washed and dried from the storeroom and made beds for the two princes on the couch.

The delicate and lingering sandalwood gradually diffuses in the air, bringing warmth and fragrance together with the sunlight outside the window.

Thick apricot-yellow linen curtains were lowered in the bedroom, filtering out the glare of the sunlight, leaving only a faint halo that swayed quietly in the wind.

After the mother, daughter and two daughters lay down, they chatted for a few words and then closed their eyes tacitly.

No words are needed, it is the peace that comes from the depths of the soul.

Soon, long and even breathing sounds were heard in the room.

Chun Ning was half asleep and half awake, perhaps not realizing where he was.

She saw Qin Yaoguang's profile in a daze, and wrapped herself in the quilt and moved towards Qin Yaoguang twice before she fell asleep peacefully again.

The room was quiet.

After lunch, the three of them were full of energy and let their personal maids help them wash and dress.

The Queen Mother smiled and called out "Le Yang" and asked, "How did you come up with this idea? These bras and panties are more comfortable to wear than bellybands."

The term "bra and panties" was used by Qin Yaoguang out of laziness. She couldn't think of a more appropriate ancient name, so she just used it.

The picture is easy to understand.

As for how she came up with it, well, that wasn't her idea.

It is the crystallization of human wisdom over thousands of years.

"When your Majesty is comfortable in what she wears, your son will be happy."

It was women's underwear, and she didn't think of making money from it.

The point is, she really doesn't lack money.

Mainly for your own comfort.

After she found that there was no problem wearing it, she pushed it to Chunning and her mother to improve their quality of life.

However, it seems that many well-off maids in the Princess's mansion now like to wear it, and it has quietly become popular.

Qin Yaoguang didn't care either.

Providing some benefits to women of this era is better than anything else.

What she cares more about is the promotion of Leyang paper and pens.

Once it is popularized, it can, at the very least, lower the threshold for enlightenment for students from poor families.

Generally speaking, it can reduce the existence of illiteracy.

At least they can write their own names and understand store names, official notices, deeds and other daily text scenes, so they don't feel lost in the dark.

Many poor people suffered from illiteracy. They signed deeds without even knowing the words written on them, and thus had their property defrauded and cheated out of them.

"Mother, my two shops are ready. The Leyang paper and pens in the bookshop are selling well."

Because I went to the hot spring resort, I wasted some time.

When at the villa, Qin Yaoguang simply sent a message to Shuangjiang, asking him to reopen the newly renovated calligraphy and painting shop and put the Leyang paper and pens in the most conspicuous position.

The shop in Xishi also started to sell Chen's paper-cuts on consignment. Gradually, people knew about her craftsmanship and some people asked her to customize patterns.

Before Yan Changqing came back, Qin Yaoguang made a special trip to the East and West Markets.

She saw people buying Leyang paper and pens, ranging from children to adults, with a wide age range.

After asking the shopkeeper, to her surprise, the most frequent repurchasers were restaurants, followed by the major shopkeepers.

Chun Ning smiled and said, "Mother, my sister's set of paper and pens is really useful. When the embroiderers in our mansion draw flower patterns, they first use the Leyang pen to outline them, and then trace them."

Even Qin Yaoguang herself had not paid attention to the usage she mentioned.

Suddenly, he suddenly realized: "No wonder, the shopkeeper told me that the shopkeeper of the silver shop bought it once, and then pre-ordered another batch. Could it be?"

The Queen Mother smiled and continued, "The jewelry in the Silver House is even more delicate."

Can it?

Pencils are easy to use and are hard pens.

The pen tip can be sharpened into a very fine point and used in various jobs that require precision, such as engraving, to outline details that were not possible before.

Also, mapping.

These are things that a brush cannot do.

In this way, the birth of the pencil will promote the development of the entire society's productivity.

An unexpected surprise.

As they talked, they were served and helped to dress and put on their makeup.

Talking about the various application scenarios of pencils, the Queen Mother couldn't hide her excitement and praised: "Leyang, you really did something big this time."

Qin Yaoguang was also very happy and said hurriedly: "Tomorrow I will ask the calligraphy and painting studio to send a batch of paper and pens to the Weiwei Temple."

The Weiwei Temple was in charge of all the military arsenals in the world, and important military supplies such as maps were also under their jurisdiction.

The Empress Dowager nodded and said: "On my birthday tonight, I will give one hundred sets of Leyang paper and pens to the Imperial College, so that their poor students can use them as they wish."

These have been prepared long ago.

All three of them were made up according to their rank, and the process was extremely complicated.

Empress Xie sent someone to Xining Palace to report, but she did not dare to rush. She only said that a wine cup with flowing wine streams had been set up in the greenhouse of the Imperial Garden, and asked the two princesses of the Empress Dowager to go directly there after they had finished dressing up.

At this time, the ladies of the imperial court and the young ladies in the mansion arrived one after another.

If it is spring or autumn, a flower-viewing banquet can be set up directly in the Imperial Garden for the Empress Dowager to receive the ladies of honor.

The flower room is nice too.

It is called a greenhouse, but in fact it is an indoor garden, specially for the enjoyment of the nobles in the harem.

It can block wind and provide shade, regardless of weather conditions.

Qin Yaoguang followed the Empress Dowager and when she appeared in the greenhouse, everyone in the room bowed down to greet her, surrounded by jewels and precious stones.

At a glance, she saw the Sixth Prince who was bowing down beside Concubine Li.

He was only ten years old, with a cute face and a timid look in his eyes.

Her little hands tightly grasped the hem of Concubine Li's skirt, revealing her discomfort with such a grand occasion.

Who would have thought?

Such a prince is the protagonist of the original book and the winner who laughs last.
