[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

Said it was tomorrow, but in fact Kangxi tossed and turned when he turned around.

If good things fail to increase production, but cause the people who originally depended on them to sustain their lives to suffer, then no matter how high the value is, it will not help.

Kangxi didn't care about taking a break, but immediately sent palace officials to notify the officials of the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau of the matter, ordering them to find a solution in the shortest possible time.

The entire Hangzhou Weaving Department instantly became busy.

Kangxi didn't even want to hold a celebration banquet for a moment, but thought that the words had already been spoken, so he finally organized one.

In addition to officials from Hangzhou government and Hangzhou Weaving Department, officials from Jiangning and Suzhou Weaving Departments were invited to participate in the banquet.For the great achievements made by the Hangzhou Weaving Department, it is impossible for them not to be jealous. They congratulated with a half-hearted smile, but at the same time, some people had other ideas.

Like now-

Qiqige, who was planning to go to the garden to relax, raised her head and looked forward, her eyes straightened immediately, and her footsteps immediately stopped in place.

The queen raised her head after a slow pat, and she looked forward in a little surprise.What caught my eye was a young woman in a pink thin shirt. The woman was standing in the garden, from her eyebrows to her figure, she was graceful and charming, with fluttering clothes, like a fairy who fell from the sky.

The queen's breathing was half a beat slow.

There are many beauties in the harem, Concubine Yi and Concubine De and even Concubine Rong when she first entered the palace are all peerless beauties. In addition, Mrs. Zhang Jia and Mrs. Wei are also one of the beauties that make people pick one out of a hundred.But compared to the person in front of him, he lost a little flavor.

Just at this moment, Kangxi appeared from the other side of the yard.

The officials leading the way in front of him were delighted, and eagerly led the emperor to the garden.It's just that he was about to speak when he turned around and met the eyes of the Empress Dowager and the Empress. The expression on his face froze instantly, and within two or three breaths, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

Kangxi also noticed the empress dowager and empress.

Before he had time to say hello, Qiqige said, "I'm afraid this girl is not stupid?"

The queen's sourness crackled all over the floor.

She slightly opened her eyes wide, and looked at Qiqige in surprise: "Emperor Mother?"

Qiqige pointed to the young woman: "If you wear a thin shirt in winter, aren't you afraid that you will get sick from the cold?"

The queen subconsciously looked at the young woman.

Perhaps in order to show off her fairy air, the young woman wore a thin pink dress, revealing her snow-white arms. It would be fine in spring, but now it is winter!

It does look... a little silly.

The queen shook her head, and quickly got rid of this thought—if she wore a thick cloak and cotton coat, how could she look like a fairy?Doesn't it look like a brown bear looking for food?

The queen stopped talking when she wanted to speak, and when she stopped talking, she wanted to.

Qiqige looked at the young woman and couldn't help shivering.Her own fox fur cloak coat, with the heater in her hand, still feels the cool breeze, and her face is panicked with cold, how can this girl laugh like this?

Must be a fool.

Qiqige glanced at the young woman pityingly, and turned her head to tell the people around her: "Wuzhina, please send this girl back to the house quickly, and let the doctor take a good look at her."

Uzhina respectfully said yes.

She immediately led four or five palace servants forward.

Palace people are well trained.

They moved quickly, quickly and decisively blocked the woman's mouth, and directly took the woman down.

So much so that Kangxi, who heard the sound and looked at her, didn't see her dreamy like a fairy descending from the earth at all. He only saw a frightened and distorted face, and that unfashionable pink thin shirt.

You know it's still winter.

Just now there are still scattered snowflakes in the sky, and standing in the garden with such little clothes on, it really looks sick.

The young woman was still trying to call for help, but when she met the emperor's indifferent and disgusted gaze, the blood on her face faded, and she was taken down crying.

The queen's mouth twitched slightly.

She never imagined that the result of her facing the enemy would be... this?

Kangxi also came back to his senses.

He glanced at the official who led him to the garden in disgust, and after giving Liang Jiugong a look, Kangxi walked to Qiqige's side: "Emperor Niang, have you had lunch yet?"

Qiqige nodded: "Used."

She held Kangxi's hand: "Go for a walk with Ai's family?"

Kangxi smiled and agreed.

The mother and son walked happily in the garden to digest food, as if they had forgotten the existence of officials.

The official felt chills in his heart.

He subconsciously stepped up to keep up, and put a hand on his shoulder.Liang Jiugong looked at him with a half-smile: "Master Yuan, please go this way."

The guards and palace servants stared at him covetously.

Liang Jiugong couldn't help shaking his head while leading the people back.

What is fate, this is fate.

She is obviously a fairy-like beauty, but her luck is not very good.

When Liang Jiugongpu saw this woman, he thought that there would be another empress in the palace, but he didn't expect that he would not say a word to the emperor, and even the officials who brought the tribute woman fell down together. Big mold.

With this unlucky Mr. Yuan in front, the rest of the officials who were staring at him stopped in an instant. Except for a small number of officials who did not give up, most of them honestly put their brains to work.

When Yinqi's endorsement was almost finished and Kangxi was about to leave for Beijing, good news finally came from the Hangzhou Weaving Department: Someone figured out a device that could significantly improve the efficiency of weaving. In the past, it was rough, and it was fine for civilian use. If you want to pay tribute to the palace, you need more improvements.

Kangxi was ecstatic.

This time Qiqige also visited—for her, these are similar to the museum of later generations. Qiqige looked around with great interest, and even started spinning and weaving by hand under the guidance of the queen.

Of course she is not using a hydraulic spinning machine.

Qiqige used the ordinary spinning machine in the past——even so, she was very satisfied, especially when she saw strands of silk thread turn into bundles of cotton yarn under her actions, and then turned into bundles of cotton yarn in the loom. A piece of smooth fabric, Qiqige is not to mention how much excitement.

At the same time, she also remembered one thing.

Qiqige doesn’t know the rest, but I’ve heard the story of the spinning jenny many times: Compared with the spinning machines in the past, in fact, the spinning jenny has changed very little, only changing from a horizontal spindle to a vertical spindle. .

etc?Qiqige turned to look at the hydraulic spinning machine.

Surprisingly, there are a total of 32 spindles on the hydraulic spinning machine, and they are all arranged vertically.

Qiqige blinked.

She reached out and poked Kangxi: "Emperor, why are the spindles on the hydraulic spinning machine vertical? The one in front of you is horizontal?"

Everyone present was stunned.

Then their eyes swayed from side to side on the hydraulic spinning machine and the hand spinning machine, all of them were stunned.

After a long time, it was Nalan Xingde who spoke first.

He replied, "The hydraulic spinning machine was made according to the schematic diagram in "Wang Zhennong Shu", and it has not been changed since then."

Then this spindle... can it be changed?

Everyone was stunned at the same time, and officials from the Hangzhou Weaving Department hurried forward, adjusting the direction of the spindle with trembling hands.

Going from landscape to portrait without any issues.

Does this... mean that like a hydraulic spinning machine, more spindles can be added on it, and the speed will be faster?More practical?

The officials of the Weaving Department were buzzing in their minds.

If it hadn't been the time for him to return to Beijing, Kangxi would definitely stay here to see what results he could come up with in the end.

In this way, good news continued to arrive along the way.

Sixteen spindles, 32 spindles are nothing, and there are even 64 or more.In the end, even Kangxi couldn't bear such a good news, and he sternly warned everyone to pay attention to the quality of cotton yarn weaving, and at the same time, re-estimate the price and open up the market.

The three major weaving bureaus finally woke up from the ecstasy.

As the letters from Jiangnan gradually decreased, the carriages and horses gradually approached the capital.

"...The residence of a saint is as good as it is, but if there is nothing there, there is nothing like it." ①

Yinqi stopped reciting and looked at Kangxi eagerly.

The empress dowager and the empress applauded enthusiastically, and Qiqige even applauded while signaling Kangxi's praise.

Look at how hard we Yinqi are working!

Kangxi smiled, and it was rare for him not to be stingy to encourage Yinqi: "You recited well."

Yin Qi let out a long sigh of relief.

He was overjoyed, turned around and threw himself into the arms of his brothers.Fortunately Yinfeng and Yinti saw that things were not going well, so they stretched out their hands to support Yinzhi and Yinzhen, otherwise the two unlucky children would definitely be hit by Yinqi.

Yin Qi giggled silly.

He opened his hands and cheered loudly: "Brother Ben has finished memorizing!"

The four of them had no choice but to accompany them and shout out loudly.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere, a smile flashed in Kangxi's eyes.Then he cleared his throat: "Speaking of which, I'm afraid it will be early March when we return to the capital, which happens to be the time for the Zongxue quarterly exam—"

The cheers stopped abruptly.

Except for the prince who could still laugh, the other four were pale and crumbling.

Especially the happiest Yin Qi.

When he thought of returning to the capital, he would have to go to Zongxue classes, and had to move out of the warm Ci Ning Palace, his heart broke with a click.

Qiqige bumped into Kangxi angrily.

Who is deliberately causing trouble here!

She quickly embraced the children who were about to cry or not, and comforted them with a smile: "Imperial Mama believes that it's just a mere exam, and you will definitely pass it easily!"

Yinti, Yinzhi, Yinzhen and Yinqi: "...oh."

It's not that they don't care about it, it's that what Huang Mama said is too casual!It was as if Yin Qi endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but pursed his lips and complained: "Emperor Mama doesn't take the exam, how can I know how difficult the exam is."

Qiqige: "..."

I have passed the exam many times in my previous life, okay?

It's just that there's no way to say these words.

Qiqige looked at Yinqi with sorrow, and lovingly touched his little head: "Although Mama Huang doesn't take the exam, Mama Huang can produce the test papers."

Yin Qi's eyes lit up.

He immediately circled around Qiqige, beat Qiqige's back for a while, rubbed Qiqige's arms for a while, and served tea for Qiqige...

It's all about getting the test paper.

Watching Yinqi busy for a long time with cold eyes, Kangxi finally smiled and said: "Silly boy, your imperial mama is teaching the exams for girls, not for you."

Yin Qi clicked and froze in place.

Qiqige puffed up her cheeks, and gave Kangxi a white look angrily: "You child, why are you so sabotage?"
