Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Huang Qubing was sweating on his forehead, his heart was weak, and his confidence was low.

He counted on Gu Jiu to save him from the fire.

Convincing His Majesty, this is not an ordinary task.

Gu Jiu waved her hand and refused.

If it was before, I would have chosen to personally convince His Majesty. But this time, I cannot.

Huang Qubing frowned, Is it because of His Royal Highness?

Gu Jiu generously admitted, Your Majesty's worries are known to both of you, and my wife didn't say so clearly. If I step forward, I'm afraid it will backfire.

Will I be able to convince His Majesty if I come forward? In any case, the four-wheeled carriage belongs to Madam's property, and His Majesty cannot hide it from her. His Majesty's worries still exist even if Madam does not come forward.

It just exists, but it doesn't affect our plans.

Why is Madam so sure? Huang Qubing was full of doubts.

Gu Jiu pondered for a moment before saying: If I appear in Xingqing Palace, I might irritate His Majesty, understand?

Huang Qubing seemed to understand but not understand.

Gu Jiu added: The same words will have different effects for different people.

Huang Qubing understood.

Regarding the four-wheeled carriage, as far as he is concerned, His Majesty considers the gains and losses.

If it was Gu Jiu, what His Majesty considered was what Liu Zhao would gain from it, and how much threat it would pose.

Huang Qubing rubbed the space between his brows, I will do my best to complete this matter. If things don't go well, please forgive me, madam.

Gu Jiu nodded, Just let it go, I have confidence in you.

At this moment, Gu Jiu missed the former Shaofu family order very much.

If the ancestor is still alive, why should Gu Jiu worry about it.

The old ancestor can help her get things done properly by himself.

Of course, Huang Qubing has unlimited potential, but lacks experience.

After he got acquainted with His Majesty's temper, he would be able to handle these things with ease.

Huang Consort led Huang Qubing,

Drive a four-wheeled carriage into the palace.

Father and son face each other in Xingqing Palace!

Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, today I have obtained a powerful weapon and a source of wealth, and I dedicate it to Your Majesty.

Huang Concubine has no other skills, but even ten Huang Qubing can't match the ability to flatter horses.

Princess Fuya is such a powerful person, but Huang Concubine can raise beautiful concubines as he pleases, and his ability to coax people is definitely first-class!

Emperor Wende's curiosity was instantly aroused when he heard about the powerful weapon of the country and the source of wealth.

Where are the powerful weapons?

It's just outside the gate of Xingqing Palace.

Emperor Wende couldn't wait, and walked directly outside the palace gate.

The four-wheeled carriage appeared in front of Emperor Wende for the first time.

Emperor Wende was stunned for a moment, then delighted, and then angry again.

Emperor Wende frowned, squinted his eyes, and fixed his eyes on the wheels of the four-wheeled carriage.

Huang Consort suddenly became nervous.

At this time, no amount of flattery is going to help.

It was still Huang Qubing's strength, and he immediately stood in front.

Your Majesty, this is a four-wheeled carriage. The wheels are made of fine iron, and the load can reach...

Huang Qubing was neither humble nor overbearing, and he talked freely, explaining the advantages of the four-wheeled carriage and its help in winning the war.

In the end, he lured him with profit.

...The sales of the car body and the horses, the Shaofu and the Horse Administration, can generate at least one million taels of income a year. The Ministry of Households collects commercial taxes, which is another income...

Wheels made of refined iron can be mass-produced? Emperor Wen De suddenly interrupted Huang Qubing.

Huang Qubing was obviously stunned for a moment, but his reaction was not too slow, and he realized in a blink of an eye, Exactly! Four Seas will hand over the brand-new refined iron smelting technology to the Shaofu for free.

Oh?

Emperor Wende half-smile, So if the commander-in-chief uses refined iron to make new ordnance, it can also be mass-produced.

Not only can it be mass-produced, but it can also reduce costs. The cost of the simplest refined iron arrows can be reduced by at least half. Huang Qubing said loudly.

Emperor Wende was noncommittal.

He stared at the wheels made of fine iron with complicated eyes.

Why doesn't Gu Jiu come to see me?

Emperor Wende suddenly asked about Gu Jiu, which scared Huang Qubing half to death.

He hurriedly said: So the matter is under the leadership of the Shaofu, so the Shaofu will first report to His Majesty. Mrs. Zhao is not an official appointed by the court. It is a matter of state affairs. She is not qualified to participate.

But she has a knack for building a carriage.

Emperor Wende's tone was cold, and Huang Qubing was terrified.

It's terrible!

The first time I came forward to persuade His Majesty, it was a deadly four-wheeled carriage.

If the wheels are wooden, all is well.

But the wheels are made of refined iron.

Why do you have to use refined iron?

Can't it be replaced by something else?

Huang Qubing issued a question from the depths of his soul.

Emperor Wende stretched out his hand and touched the wheel casually.

It's a good thing!

Huang Consort smiled, is it over?

As a result, Emperor Wende's next sentence was: The two lovers are interested, please step down.

Huang Consort was dumbfounded.

It was still Huang Qubing who responded in a timely manner, The minister resigns!

He pulled his own father and left quickly.

...

Lord Lu felt his eyelids twitching.

He glanced at Ren Qiu who was eating chicken feet, What happened?

Ren Qiu shook his head, It's okay! Are you too nervous?

Lord Lu's eyelids twitched more and more.

He rubbed his eyes, What's so rare in the capital today?

Didn't the housekeeper tell you?

Tell me what?

Four-wheeled carriages! Iron wheels, four-wheeled carriages, all the streets and alleys are talking about it. As a dignified secretary, you don't know it. It shouldn't be. The servants around you often follow the dereliction of duty. Hurry up and replace them. Ren Qiu Man said indifferently.

Chang Sui is very wronged, is it easy for us? It's too heartless to say that it will be replaced.

Lord Lu didn't have time to deal with the aggrieved Chang Sui boy, so he kicked him out directly.

His heart skipped a beat, The four-wheeled carriage? Could it be related to the Universal Trading Company?

Ren Qiu nodded, That's right.

Snapped!

Master Lu slapped the table, I want to enter the palace immediately.

Ren Qiu was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly called out, What are you doing in the palace?

Lord Lu snorted coldly, For such a big matter, I naturally have to go to the palace to face the saint.

I've heard people say that the Shaofu brought a four-wheeled carriage into the palace, obviously to present the four-wheeled carriage to His Majesty. I also heard that the wheels of the four-wheeled carriage are made of fine iron.

Lord Lu glared at Ren Qiu fiercely. Such important news has not been revealed until now.

He didn't have time to quarrel with Ren Qiu, so he changed into his official uniform, got into the carriage, and headed to the palace.

...

Xingqing Palace, Zhengyang Palace.

The body of the four-wheeled carriage was brought in and placed in the main hall.

Emperor Wende sat at the desk and never took his eyes off the carriage.

The four-wheeled carriage is like a monster that can eat people.

What's even more frightening is that the four wheels can turn and turn around freely. More flexible than two wheels, it's incredible.

In Emperor Wende's mind, there were clearly two voices fighting.

A voice said: Destroy him. The four-wheeled carriage is a conspiracy, a tool for Gu Jiu to earn political capital for Liu Zhao. She must not be allowed to succeed.

Another voice said: Anyone with eyes can see that the four-wheeled carriage is a military weapon. It will greatly shorten the transportation time, and it can even run on the prairie. With the four-wheeled carriage, the Beirong Royal Court will be wiped out. It is just around the corner. Moreover, the four-wheeled carriage can also bring high profits and generous taxes. This is a profitable tool, which must be preserved and mass-produced.”

The two voices made Emperor Wende restless. His expression became more and more distorted and hideous.

In the main hall, all the eunuchs and servants did not dare to breathe heavily, for fear of disturbing Emperor Wende.

Until a constant attendant who was not afraid of death reported outside the palace gate, Your Majesty, Zhongshu ordered Lord Lu to see you!

Emperor Wende did not respond for a long time.

Chang En could only remind in a low voice, Your Majesty, Mr. Lu is asking to see you.

Emperor Wende finally came to his senses, took a deep breath, Please come in, Lu Aiqing.

Master Lu hurried into the hall, and the first thing he saw was a four-wheeled carriage placed in a corner.

My minister sees Your Majesty!

Aiqing is here! Four-wheeled carriage, Aiqing has heard of it.

Weichen came here just for the carriage. Could you let Weichen check it carefully?

Ai Qing, whatever you want!

With Emperor Wende's permission, Mr. Lu got into the carriage to experience it himself, and then had someone pull the carriage around the hall for a few laps, focusing on observing the turning conditions.

The smooth turning and backwards amazed Mr. Lu.

People set up obstacles again, and the four-wheeled carriage passed through relatively easily.

Your Majesty, this is the blessing of Great Zhou! Master Lu said excitedly.

Ai Qing really thinks this is the blessing of the Great Zhou?

Master Lu was stunned, and Emperor Wende's tone and attitude were obviously not right.

Emperor Wende waved his hand, and all the palace people retreated, even Chang En was no exception.

In the main hall, there are only two monarchs and ministers left, who can speak with confidence.

Emperor Wende left the desk and came to the front of the carriage, stroking the wheels with his hands.

The four-wheeled carriage is a good thing, I know this very well. Does Ai Qing know who built the four-wheeled carriage?

Reporting to Your Majesty, before I entered the palace, I found out about it. It is said that it was made by a small blacksmith workshop under the name of Mrs. Zhao.

Then tell me, what is Gu Jiu's intention in building a four-wheeled carriage with refined iron? Is it really just to make money? She has already made enough money in these years. The money she has in hand may not be used up in ten lifetimes Why did she spend so much time and money building a four-wheeled carriage?

Lord Lu frowned, Your Majesty suspects that Madam Zhao is preparing for the First Prince?

Emperor Wende was suddenly furious, Apart from this reason, what other reason can make her work hard to build a four-wheeled carriage at any cost? She has already made enough money, why do she want to build a four-wheeled carriage? There is a conspiracy in it , is a big conspiracy. I even suspect Liu Zhao is trying to rebel. I shouldn't put Liu Zhao in the northwest.

Your Majesty! Master Lu shouted, waking up the suspicious Emperor Wende.

Lord Lu solemnly said: I believe that Mrs. Zhao built the four-wheeled carriage to build momentum for His Royal Highness. There must be a reason for this. At the same time, I also believe that His Royal Highness will not rebel.
