Li Longji had a sullen expression when he spoke, but then he blinked his eyes and smiled at Wu Huifei and Empress Wang, who were also looking at him. "It's good to get used to it. Last time, I finally found a way to scheme against Xiao Bao. This method can still be used often. Let's not talk about the distance. As long as the price of goods in the capital fluctuates slightly, I will immediately order people to release the news. He definitely won't dare to stand out and deny it. Haha, thinking about it makes me happy. "
Wu Huifei and Empress Wang were helpless. The emperor seemed to become a different person when he met Xiao Bao. Even if he took advantage of him a little, he would still be happy.
"Your Majesty, where can we go to play this summer and autumn?" Wu Huifei suddenly asked Li Longji.
Li Longji muttered to himself for a moment and shook his head. "I don't think we can go out this year. Haven't you noticed that the soldiers in various places are frequently mobilized? Other than the spring plowing that is still going on, the other industries are showing signs of stopping. I need to stay in the capital. "
"Speaking of which, this concubine also doesn't understand. It's just fighting and eating. The imperial court has been training soldiers in the northwest for a long time. In addition, they have a large number of soldiers there. They can just force their way in. Why do they need to mobilize the soldiers of other provinces? The soldiers of the Jiangnan Circuit are being mobilized, and they still need soldiers from other places to replenish them. Could it be that they want to fight Japan and Xinluo? "
Wu Huifei knew very little about military matters. When she recalled the past, she had never encountered a situation where the government troops of the interior followed them around when they were fighting a faraway land. If not for the fact that Xiaobao and Cuckoo two people did not take any action despite the fact that there were so many opportunities to assassinate them, she would have thought that they were going to rebel.
Li Longji closed his eyes and didn't speak. It seemed that he didn't want to explain the national affairs clearly to the people in the palace.
Wu Huifei could only look at Empress Wang. She had a chance to get rid of her and seize the position of the head of the harem. She was also protected by Xiao Bao and Cuckoo at that time. She was looking forward to getting some information from her. After all, she was born in a family of generals and had helped the emperor rebel.
The current Empress Wang looked much weaker than before. Her skin was white and smooth, and her face was dignified. She gave people the impression that she was a normal woman guarding the harem. In fact, she was more and more fond of military affairs.
This was because, according to Wang Juan, a woman who had nothing else to do would always be neglected by a busy man. A happy woman had to make her voice heard from time to time, especially around a man's career. Even if she said something wrong occasionally, it was fine.
If you were by the Emperor's side, you would need to know the military and know the politics. Otherwise, when the Emperor made a wise decision and you were at a loss when he told you, wouldn't you be depriving the Emperor of the opportunity to show off? Therefore, you must understand. Occasionally, you will make a mistake, or ask a few silly questions. The Emperor will explain it to you, and you will naturally be in a good mood.
Empress Wang deeply agreed with this theory, therefore, whenever there was a resolution in the imperial court, she would send a letter to Wang Juan for consultation, to obtain a solution, understand the method, and then use it on His Majesty when they were chatting in the Palace.
Seeing Wu Huifei look over, Empress Wang showed a warm smile. She put down the book in her hand and said to her, "You think the palace is boring. In the middle of summer, the large amusement park in the suburbs of the capital will open. Why don't you go with me?"
"Most of them are children. I won't go." Wu Huifei refused. If she went there, she would be surrounded by guards. Everyone knew her identity, so who would she play with? Looking at you is like looking at animals in a zoo.
"Then let's go to Sanshui County. It's safe there, and we don't have to worry about being surrounded." Empress Wang had just thought of this when she made a new suggestion.
"But His Majesty in the palace …" Wu Huifei was moved, but she had other concerns.
Empress Wang waved her hand indifferently and said, "It's fine. His Majesty has been busy recently, so he goes to sleep at night. Besides, there are other people looking after him."
Empress Wang had learned this from Cuckoo. She said that you can't always be around a man. After a long time, the man will forget you. Find an opportunity to look at him for a while, then the man will find that a habit around him has been broken, then he will remember you.
But you have to control the situation well. Don't let the man worry, otherwise he will easily run to other people to vent his thoughts. However, she still didn't understand why Cuckoo didn't want to be apart from Xiao Bao for a while.
When Li Longji heard this, he stopped writing, raised his head, and said, "Go, go. Only when you get there will there be people who will sincerely communicate with you. The local roast duck has always been different from the ones outside.
I will be very busy recently. Last night, the Ministry of Works sent news that the film that can be used to make this thing called 'movie' has been successfully made. It is now being tested and played in sync with the sound. For the sake of the people of my dynasty, I can only work hard. I can't say how helpless I am. "
Empress Wang and Wu Huifei looked at the Emperor's face that didn't show any helplessness. Instead, there was a faint excitement on his face. They hesitated again. They also wanted to work hard for the sake of the people of Tang.
"Why don't we film it together?" Empress Wang suggested.
"I'll test the water first. I'll put it in a few places in Tang and see the effect first." Li Longji planned to release his image first.
Wu Huifei was helpless. She thought for a while and said, "I think the glass film that was used for Xiaobei and the others is very good. It has color. I heard Xiao Bao and Cuckoo say that the new thing called film has no color."
Empress Wang said, "Cuckoo said that if you are willing, you can invest more. She and Xiao Bao will put in a lot of effort. Basically, it can be done in one step. However, it's not good for the researchers of the Ministry of Works. They can only walk and run when they have a firm footing.
Cuckoo said that she and Xiao Bao know a lot of things. However, when it's used on the technicians, it can only guarantee that they won't take the wrong path. It won't let them fly directly. "
"Sister, you've been fooled by them. They are flying. Sister, you don't know. A few days ago, when I asked Miaomiao to go to the Ministry of Works to ask for things to wash clothes, guess what she saw?" Wu Huifei asked with her eyes wide open.
"What?" Empress Wang's eyes also widened. "Why did you go to the Ministry of Works to ask for things to wash clothes? Minister Zhang has good things there? "
"My red clothes were stained with something green. It can't be washed off. It's my favorite one. Their family specially sent a few pieces to the palace. It's a pity to throw them away. I thought that the Ministry of Works should have a solution. Miaomiao went to Minister Zhang. Minister Zhang was busy with other things and gave Miaomiao a pass. Miaomiao entered the circle outside the Ministry of Works herself. "
"Did you wash off the things you brought?" Empress Wang asked expectantly.
"I washed them off. The green ones were washed off, and the red ones were washed off as well. I can't wear them anymore. I plan to get someone to change my clothes. Elder Sister, this person is really strange. In the past, I didn't have much spare money. I always wanted to wear new clothes, as if wearing old ones was beneath my status.
Now that I can't use up all my money, I don't care. It's fine as long as the clothes fit me. When I eat, I don't need to eat too many dishes. It's fine as long as they are delicious. "
Wu Huifei frowned when she talked about washing off the color of the clothes. However, when she talked about her own changes, she was enraptured.
Empress Wang agreed. "Yes, yes. According to Cuckoo, if you have money, you have confidence. If you have confidence, you can do whatever you want. Look at Xiao Bei's pants. Because he always runs around, he has a cut on his knee. He had someone sew a pocket on it. Now, many children wear pants with pockets sewn on their knees.
Also, Xiao Bao's father, Zhang Shangshu, is always busy. Every day, he has to go to the Ministry of Works' research area to change his original green clothes. His elbows are whitened. Thus, many people in Beijing wear green clothes. They don't look good at all. They even deliberately use things to whiten their elbows. "
"Yes." Li Longji also interrupted. "That's because no one thinks that the Zhang Family and the Wang Family can't afford to wear clothes. When Xiao Bei and the others eat outside, they pack up the leftovers and take them back. Who dares to look down on them? The poorer they are, the more generous they are. The more inferior they are, the more flamboyant they are. "
After lamenting, Li Longji thought of something important. He asked, "In the future, you are not allowed to send people into the Ministry of Works' research area, even the periphery. I'll talk to Zhang Zhong later. What did Miaomiao see over there? "
"Yes, yes. Let's not talk about washing clothes first." Empress Wang also reacted.
At the mention of this, Wu Huifei looked unhappy. It was as if someone owed her money and didn't want to return it. She frowned and said, "Miaomiao saw something even more interesting than the telegram. Miaomiao said that when she greeted the people at the periphery and told them the reason, that person directly picked up something on the table and shouted, 'I'm the chief dispatcher of the Light Industry Materials Logistics Department. I want them to send a bottle of strong cleaning agent.' Then, Miaomiao heard a voice saying 'Understood.' Not long after, a bottle of something was sent over. "
"What … what is that thing?" Empress Wang asked in shock.
"I don't know, but I definitely dare to say that that thing must be talking to someone else. We're using a telegram now, so how can it talk? There's only a ticking sound. Sister, do you think it flew or not? The telegram is already amazing enough, but there's actually something that can talk. "Wu Huifei looked very depressed.
Li Longji was also depressed. He lowered his head and thought about something. As he thought, he angrily threw his pen on the rack and shouted outside, "Find that guy Zhang Zhong for me."
The sound of running footsteps could be heard outside.
Wu Huifei and Empress Wang weren't in the mood to read. They sat up straight and waited with Li Longji. If they didn't understand this matter, they wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.
After waiting for a full 15 minutes, Zhang Zhong's small figure appeared at the bottom of the stairs outside the hall. As he got closer, his figure gradually grew bigger.
The three people in the hall looked out at the same time and were stunned.
They saw that Zhang Zhong, who was wearing tight work clothes today, had an extra big thing on his body. To be precise, there were two. One was in his hand, and the other was in front of his chest with a strap. There was also a microphone and a loudspeaker. As he walked, his mouth moved.
When they reached the top of the stairs and stood in front of the door, Zhang Zhong looked at the three people apologetically and signaled for them to wait.
"I'll say it again. Don't fill up the small river behind. Don't. Put a big water tank next to it. Get the diesel generator and water pumping equipment ready. The warehouse in that place is very important. If it's burned, I'll cut off your heads. Over. "
After Zhang Zhong finished speaking, he pressed something on the box in front of his chest. Three seconds later, a voice came from the loudspeaker hanging on his chest. "We understand. We promise that we won't let the materials suffer any damage. We'll do as you say. Over."
Zhang Zhong pressed something on the box in his hand again, and then on the box in front of his chest. After a while, he said into the loudspeaker, "The materials are important, but the people are more important. If there's any danger, the people will run first. You can leave the materials behind. If you dare to save the materials and get into danger, I'll deal with your families. Don't think that I'm just scaring you. Alright, His Majesty is waiting for me. Over."
After pressing something on the box in front of his chest again, Zhang Zhong let out a long breath. He then said to Li Longji, who was waiting in the hall, "His Majesty, why did you summon me here?"
