When Lu Guanchu went to report to Shi Min, Bu Qianxue knew about it, but she didn't know the content of the report until she saw a group of people from far to near, especially when she saw Wen Zhimian.

She couldn't understand why such a good Shi Min had such a "famous" cousin?

Although Wen Zhimian likes to play around, he is not stupid. When he saw Lu Guanchu standing respectfully beside a woman in a beautiful dress, and there were many servants beside him, he guessed that the other party must be one of the queen candidates, but he didn't know. Which one is it? Maybe it will be her queen's cousin Qing in the future, so I have to make a good impression. When I pass by, I stop and salute.

Because same-sex marriage and heterosexual marriage have the same status here, the names of family members and relatives are a bit different from those in ancient China. The other half of life is called a partner or lover.

The titles of relatives are generally the same, but there are also differences. The same ones are uncle, uncle, aunt, aunt, uncle, cousin, and cousin. The male partner of a cousin is called Cousin Qing. If there are many people, the name will be lengthened, Zhong, and Ji to show the difference. If it is a younger sister or a younger brother, it is Meiqing or Diqing, so Wen Zhimian calls the cousin's partner Call me Cousin Qing.

After all, Bu Qianxue was not a queen yet, so she returned the gift with a smirk. She really didn't like Wen Zhimian in her heart, so it was fine to face it, and hoped that she would not be in his hands in the future.

The jealous character made her not used to such a dude like Wen Zhimian, but she also knew that even if Wen Zhimian committed a crime, it would not be her turn to take care of it. The last sentence was more like encouraging herself not to get along with such People work together.

Although the woman on the opposite side is pretty good-looking and has a good temperament, Wen Zhimian is sure that this is the first time he has seen her, and he is also keenly aware of her dislike for him. Thinking of his reputation in Fandu, Then thinking that two of the queen candidates were from Fandu, she understood.

Those who can have this kind of temperament will definitely not be civilians, it can only be the little censor of the Supervision Yuan. It is said that the officials of the Supervision Yuan are just like the clan orders among their nobles, which are not liked by the nobles, just like The emperor's eyes were fixed on them and the gentry. In recent years, the number of gentry who had been investigated and dealt with by the Supervision Institute was unknown, and there were as many as dozens of nobles reported by them.

She didn't hate this little censor yet, but she was hated by the little censor first. Wen Zhimian was a little annoyed, and when he turned to leave, he flicked his sleeves and snorted, very disdainful, and only saw the emperor's cousin not far away. He smiled again.

The water truck has been launched and is undergoing final adjustments. As soon as Shi Min turned his head, he saw Er Mian, who was smiling brighter than the sun, running towards him. He immediately laughed happily and said loudly: "You are such a big man. Why are you still running like a child?"

The officials who were only a few steps away from Shi Min, especially Mu Changqing's eyes were wide open. Such a majesty is really rare. Although I have heard about the empress dowager and your majesty's love for this Wen Zhimian, but after all The reality that has not been seen with one's own eyes.

"Emperor's cousin, compared to you and my brother, I'm still young." Wen Zhimian said while running non-stop, and soon arrived at Shi Min's side, and asked without panting: "Emperor's cousin , What are they doing? What are these two big round wheels?..."

Er Mian's curiosity is still as strong as ever, asking around like a curious baby, but Shi Min is not annoyed at all, but he doesn't answer right away. Che gave a detailed explanation of the actual situation, and even the officials and carpenters listened carefully.

Although they don't know what the words "mechanics, power, hydraulics, machinery" mean, but they don't hinder their desire for knowledge, especially after seeing the bobbins actually irrigate water from the river to the highland fields, And it was His Majesty who explained it himself, even if he didn't fully understand it, it was enough to make people who have never heard it envious.

Looking at the cousin of the emperor who talked eloquently, Wen Zhimian worshiped it besides adoration. It would have been better if the little censor hadn't been called over. Thinking of this, she took a sneak peek and saw the little censor looking at her cousin of the emperor. She looked like her father looked at her mother, and was startled. She didn't want this little censor to be her cousin Qing at all.

Qingying, who was playing by herself, ran to Bu Qianxue and Shi Min, spun around a few times, and fell on the ground with a snap, with her front feet bent under her head, feeling Wen Zhimian's malice towards Bu Qianxue , raised his head in an instant, with a fierce look, Wen Zhimian was so frightened that he immediately ran behind Shi Min.

I don't know if it's because Qingying and her are not on the same page, or because she treated Qingying badly when she was a dog, so Qingying never gives her good looks, and she won't let her be touched, she is very fierce!She has always kept a respectful distance away, and she was secretly happy when she saw it playing on the side just now, but she didn't expect that what was supposed to come would always come.

Before Shi Min could finish explaining, the waterwheel drew the water up from the river, and instantly attracted Wen Zhimian's full attention. He was no longer afraid of Qingying not far away, and focused on the waterwheel, standing by the side. He couldn't take his eyes off it, if it was Xia Tian, ​​he probably would have jumped into the water to watch it.

She was very satisfied with the hard work of the carpenters and officials of the Ministry of Works. She was never stingy with those who made meritorious deeds. She not only rewarded the carpenters with money, but also all the officials of the Ministry of Works present. Their unremitting efforts were needed to promote the bobbins and waterwheels. The task was heavy, and she also said a lot of words of encouragement.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and she dismissed everyone except Mu Changqing, and even the carpenters got half a day off.

On the road inside the Xinggong Palace, several palace servants opened the way ahead, Shi Min and Mu Changqing walked in front one after the other, chatting while walking, Bu Qianxue followed a few steps behind, Qingying was next to him, Wen Zhimian walked last, Deliberately not far or near, Lu Guanchu and others followed closely behind.

"Mu Aiqing, have all the carpenters from all over the place arrived? How long will it take for them to learn how to make bobbins and waterwheels?" Shi Min asked without looking sideways.

Mu Changqing, who was one step behind, lowered his head slightly, crossed his hands in front of him, thought for a while before replying: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I have arrived one after another. It takes ten days and a half months to learn quickly, and it takes more than a month to learn quickly. It may be difficult to promote it nationwide this year."

"Don't rush for success in promotion, just follow the steps. By the way, can the local government provide them with money as required?" The purpose of canceling the craftsman's household registration is to promote the exchange and movement of craftsmen and provide better craftsmanship for the development of the country. She is also very happy Focus on protecting the interests of craftsmen.

As early as when the edict was issued, the local yamen specifically requested that the carpenters who came to learn the art be paid. Although the temporary workshops and residences here are also temporary, the environment is acceptable, and when they go back, they can get a fortune. The wages are regarded as caring.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I asked you, they were all in trouble before they left." Mu Changqing wanted to come to His Majesty's side to cross the river for the things that were clearly required by the imperial edict. Dare not to post?

Hearing this, Shi Min nodded in satisfaction, and asked some other matters of concern. Mu Changqing also reported some things he wanted to report, and Shi Min didn't let Mu Changqing leave until he was outside the gate of Jingxin Palace.

She wanted to stay with Mu Changqing to have lunch together, but now she is not the only one eating, this will add another two, and Mu Changqing doesn't necessarily want to eat with her immediate boss, so she still doesn't It's hard for the strong.

After seeing the minister finally left, Wen Zhimian was so happy that he wanted to run to the emperor's cousin to talk to her, but he saw that Bu Qianxue had already approached her one step ahead of her, and even chatted with the emperor's cousin. When he came back, he pouted with displeasure on his face.

The Luguan closest to Wen Zhimian can be seen clearly at the first glance. Although he kept smiling on his face, he was already laughing in his heart. His heart was like a mirror. important.

Today, the Zhao Family in the Zhaohou Mansion is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the whole Zhao Mansion is full of joy and crowds. Even passers-by who see the festivities in the Zhao Mansion can't help but ask casually, "I didn't hear that the Zhaohou Mansion is going to get married. What kind of happy event is this?" So lively?"

If someone who knows the inside story is not far away and happens to hear it, he will happily reply, "Today is Zhaohou Qiyi's birthday, how can it not be lively?" This is one of the recent major events in Fandu. I don't know, and it is necessary to despise the other party's ignorance.

Different from the excitement of Zhaohou's Mansion, Prince Zhong's Mansion was full of dignified expressions from top to bottom. Zhang Liangyue had already left the city to join Shi Shuang's real son last night. His long-term dependence on Zhang Liangyue made him feel uneasy. The performance is so calm, but a little nervous.

Zhao Hou is the elder brother of the current Empress Dowager and the old head of the Zhao family. Although a hundred years old is not rare, it is a great joy in life to live to a hundred years old. As the saying goes, people are happy when they are happy, and their white hair is wrinkled Zhaohou, who was fully dressed in a splendid attire, was full of energy, and was happily sitting on the head seat in the house to accept congratulations from the younger generation, receiving birthday gifts one after another.

Zhao Chengfan and his partner smiled no less than his old father, and even Zhao Huanying, who was working in the local area, rushed back. In addition to the small sects from various places, it can be regarded as a large and prosperous family with a large number of people.

It’s just that Dazong Zhaohou’s branch seems a bit thin. There are only four grandparents and grandchildren in total. Grandpa passed away two years ago. Zhao Chengfan and Zhao Huanying were both adopted from side branches, so there is a 50-year difference between Zhao Chengfan and his father. .

Zhao Chengfan only returned to Fandu yesterday. Originally, he thought he would miss his father's birthday again, but His Majesty gave him a holiday. After receiving His Majesty's orders, he came back happily without stopping.

Zhao Huanying grew up in the Marquis Zhao Mansion since she was a child. She has deep feelings for her grandfather, father, and father. Her grandfather has passed away, so she attaches great importance to her grandfather. But thinking of His Majesty's trust, he didn't want to let His Majesty down. After struggling for a month, he finally decided to The boss chatted with him, and after knowing what happened, he gave him half a month's leave, which was half a day earlier than his father.

After Hebai, the butler came to report that 'the guests are almost here', Zhao Chengfan said a few words to his father and went to the front yard to receive the guests first, while Zhao Huanying and his father took a step back and accompanied Zhaohou slowly go outside.

When Zhao Huanying helped his grandfather to the banquet in the front yard, he heard the servants singing "His Royal Highness has arrived, congratulatory gifts: a pair of night pearls, a coral..." Before he could hear it all, he was overwhelmed by the noise at the scene. The sound drowned out, but when the servant shouted "Marquis Zhao", it became quiet for a moment, followed by congratulations.

Seeing this, Shi Shuang, the loyal king who was not happy at first, suddenly became angry for no reason, thinking: If this king is the emperor, how dare you look down on me like this?snort!You wait for Hugh to be rampant, wait a while for this king to make a move, if you want to curry favor, it depends on the king's mood.

After lunch at noon, Er Mian was sent by her to report to her aunt. She probably wouldn't be able to come back before night, so Shi Min and Bu Qianxue dressed up in disguise and went to Duhe City for a private visit. They saw monkeys juggling She was very happy, and only she knew what she was thinking. ?
