The Tyrant’s Beloved Empress

Chapter 68

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the craftsman’s workshop, and before Xiao Zhige reached out to help, An Changqing got out of the carriage by herself. +++Mobile reading visit m. Xiao Zhige looked at his back as he walked in quickly, shook his head reluctantly, and could only follow him in.

The craftsman’s workshop was established next to the weapon. In the front is the concierge and the front hall, in the middle is the residence of the craftsmen, and the innermost backyard is the place where the craftsmen (gan) work. The first version of the tube car developed is placed in the backyard.

An Changqing went in with the principal, and saw a swiftly high tube cart quietly placed in the courtyard, with a large circular runner connected to a wooden tube for water, and a sink at the bottom. It was almost the same as what he had seen in his last life.

“Can you try it in the water?” An Changqing asked.

The principal respectfully said: “It hasn’t been launched yet. We did a smaller one before, and tried to launch it. If we fetched too little water, we changed it to a larger one.”

An Changqing looked up, thinking that he saw a cart in the last life. A single ordinary cart can irrigate two acres of fields. If it can be developed in advance…

“When can it be launched?”

“I am going to launch it today.” The steward said: “So I specially asked the princess to come and observe, to see if there is any room for improvement.”

An Changqing was very satisfied with the speed of the craftsman’s workshop, and nodded and said: “Go, if it can be done, I will have a great reward.”

As soon as the principal heard it, his expression became even more exciting. I quickly called other people to transport the cart.

Craftsmen rely on craftsmanship to eat and earn hard money. Nowadays, the princess not only gives high monthly money, but is also polite to the craftsmen. More importantly, he can often put forward a lot of novel insights, so the craftsmen in the workshop respect him very much.

The craftsmen simply disassembled the cart, and then transported it to the river that was explored in advance in an ox cart, and then reinstalled the cart and placed it in the current. The water was turbulent, but in a moment it drove the drum cart to slowly rotate. The water intake wooden tube on the drum cart was filled with water and turned to a high place. The river water was poured into the sink and sent continuously to the ditch.

An Changqing let out a deep breath, with an unprecedented look in her eyes: “It’s really done!”

Xiao Zhige originally did not approve of him running around with the craftsmen, but he was deeply touched when he saw the carts start to run and deliver water. No one knows better than him the meaning of this cart to Yanzhou and even to the people of Daye.

In the future, it is only necessary to dig river channels and ditches, and then use drum carts to transport water for irrigation. That would save a lot of effort from the irrigation that used to cost countless manpower. If irrigation is sufficient, crops will grow well, and crop yields will increase. The common people no longer need to run for irrigation, they can free up their hands to do other things…

Perhaps in a few years, the land of Yanzhou will no longer be so barren and poor.

Xiao Zhige’s eyes were slightly hot, and he looked down at the person beside him: “The successful development of the tube cart is of great benefit to the people of Yanzhou. The craftsmen have rewards, what do you want?”

“Me?” An Changqing tilted her head for a moment and smiled slyly; “I want the prince to stay away from me in the future.”

These days Xiao Zhige is afraid of falling when he sees him taking a big step, as if he is still a toddler, and it is really too much for An Changqing.

“…” Xiao Zhi Ge was silent, and finally compromised: “I’m not bound to you, you have to be more careful. Although you can’t see it for the time being, it’s not the same as before.”

An Changqing smiled, and took the initiative to hold his hand and shook it: “I have a sense of measure. But how long have you not had a good night’s sleep?” As she said, her finger poked in the dark under Xiao Zhige’s eyes.

Xiao Zhige has always been energetic, and he never sleeps and doesn’t see him (exposing) tired (lust) during the war. However, since it was confirmed that An Changqing was pregnant, he has not had a good night’s sleep. Often unable to fall asleep in the middle of the night, he stared at An Changqing without blinking, and his expression was both happy and worried. When he got up in the daytime, he pretended to be an okay person, and carefully looked after him. Even many military affairs in the army, he brought back to the mansion for processing, just to accompany him more.

An Changqing saw it, but didn’t know how to persuade it.

He can probably guess the man’s mind, but there is no better way to make him feel at ease. He can only make himself look more energetic, so at least his worries will not be so deep.

In a hurry at this time, An Changqing found the cause by playing a joke and muttered: “Look at you, people who don’t know think that there is a fascinating fairy in the house.”

Xiao Zhige laughed and understood what he meant, and followed his words with a serious nod: “There is indeed a fairy hidden in the house.” It’s just that he hasn’t breathed in for a long time.

He meant something, An Changqing naturally heard it, glared at him, and hummed: “I’m going to see the tube car, but you didn’t say it.”

After speaking, he threw away his hand and went to the side of the cart and looked at it nicely.

Xiao Zhige, who was thrown away, had a deeper smile in his eyes, and stepped to follow him, guarding his side. The road by the river was slippery, lest he could not stand still and fall.

***

After the first tube car was tried for five days, the news was officially announced to the people.

The barrel carts were made by the government and craftsmen, but the people had to dig up the rivers and ditches in the fields. In order to let everyone see the effect of the tube car, the first tri-driving tube car has been put into use.

The common people saw the effect and were amazed. The original complaints about the need to excavate rivers and ditches gradually dissipated. Instead, they became more positive one by one. They are all people who eat crops in the fields. No one will not know how important water diversion is for irrigation. Now that the government builds tube carts for them, they only need to do their best. That is a great thing.

So this summer, when the people of Yanzhou were busy with farming, they started digging ditches in a prosperous way.

By August, the construction of the outer city of Yanzhou had already passed more than half, and thousands of acres of wasteland had been reclaimed. The ditches are criss-crossed, and the widening and drainage rivers are mounted with tall carts. With the continuous rotation of the water, the transported river water flows along the vertical and horizontal ditches and flows into the cultivated fields.

Although everything is still being improved, Yanzhou is already prospering in the future.

***

At the beginning of August, under the **** of the escort, several carriages slowly entered Yanzhou City and drove towards the General’s Mansion.

An Changqing had received the news a long time ago and looked at the door for the first time. When he saw the carriage approaching, he couldn’t help but trot for two steps. Yu just raised the curtain to look out. The mother and son looked at each other, and An Changqing trembled and called “mother”.

Ye Jing said goodbye. The mother and son hadn’t seen each other for half a year.

Yu responded, and without waiting for someone to move the stool, he lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. He walked quickly to An Changqing and looked at him nicely. When he saw that his face (color) was ruddy and his face was a little rounder, he laughed, lovingly (touching Mo) (touching Mo) his face: “Better than I got a little fatter when I left Beijing and got taller.”

An Xianyu got out of the car slowly, and leaned over to see him and smiled narrowly: “My mother is always worried about your bad time in Yanzhou on the road, so I just say she is blind (fuck cao).”

Yu glanced at her, and could not speak out the worries in his heart. He could only tentatively said: “Last time you sent home letters, what problems did you encounter?”

Seeing her face (showing) worry (color), An Changqing knew that she must know something, but now is not the right time. We greeted people in first.

Since the news was communicated earlier that they would live in Yanzhou for a while, the mother and daughter brought all the luggage they could bring, and the carriages were packed full. The maidservants who had brought with them swiftly followed the subordinates of the General’s Mansion to move their luggage into the yard and set them up, while An Changqing and Xiao Zhige accompanied them to the front hall for meals.

To travel a long distance, you must first catch the wind and dust. After eating, seeing that the worry (color) between Yu’s eyebrows became thicker, Xiao Zhige suggested to go to the study.

The Yu family knew that there must be something abnormal in An Changqing’s body, so he sighed and went with them. An Xianyu didn’t know anything. Originally, the Yu family didn’t want to ask her to go with her. Instead, Xiao Zhige said, “It’s all a family, so we must know sooner or later.” Then the four of them entered the study together.

Although An Xianyu didn’t know what happened to (fa), but seeing that the three of them were all dignified, he understood that something must have happened to (fa), and she suppressed her expression and sat aside to listen to them.

Xiao Zhige asked the guards to guard outside the study, and then closed the doors and windows. Then he sat down beside An Changqing.

Suddenly the atmosphere was a little calm, but Yu first spoke: “But now, what’s the problem with him?”

An Changqing’s eyelashes trembled slightly: “Mother is hiding something from me?”

Yu clan was silent, and nodded for a long time: “I wanted to bring this into the coffin, so nobody said it.”

But last month, An Changqing’s home letter sent back suddenly mentioned the shark tribe and Hongwen, which made her think more. She seemed to think about the wording, and then slowly said: “But you have scales and red lines on your body?”

“Scaly?” An Changqing grasped the point at once, widened her eyes and looked a little confused: “What scales? I only have fish-scale red lines on the back of my ears.”

Turning his head to the side while speaking, he pulled his long hair aside, (showing) a red streak like fish scales.

Yu’s eyes trembled, and his fingers landed on the red line: “It’s this… how could it grow again…” After speaking, he hurriedly looked at An Changqing’s face and neck. Seeing that there was nothing else, I was slightly relieved.

“Mother knows what’s going on with this red pattern?” Xiao Zhige asked in a deep voice.

“I don’t know.” Unexpectedly, Yu slowly shook his head, and said, “But now I grew up once when I was four years old. It’s much more serious than this time, on the face and neck (chest xiong). They all have large red lines and mottled scales on their legs.”

An Changqing was surprised. He never knew that he had grown up like this when he was a child.

Seeing him in surprise, Yu gave a wry smile: “At that time, you were young and had a high fever. I shouldn’t remember. Haven’t you been wondering why your father suddenly abandoned our mother and son? It’s because of this…”

She lowered her eyes, she couldn’t see the sadness anymore, but calmly recounted a past event.

At that time An Changqing was only four years old, and An Xianyu was just one year old. The Yu family and An Zhike are still genre and ming. Although they are only concubine rooms, she does not desire more, but only wants to guard her son and daughter to live a good life. But that simple wish fell apart when An Changqing was four years old. That year, An Changqing suddenly became unconscious and developed a high fever. Yu invited the doctor to see him. An Zhike was worried that the younger son would be with him. Unexpectedly, when the tent was opened, he saw the little An Changqing’s face crawling. Full of weird red (color) patterns. The doctor was taken aback, and said that this was an evildoer.

An Zhike finally stabilized the doctor and strictly ordered him not to speak out. Yu checked his son’s body and found that not only was there red lines on his body, but his legs were also covered with small scales. She was scared in her heart. Subconsciously seeking her husband’s help, An Zhike seemed to be a different person, coldly looking for An Changqing to be put to death.

Although he didn’t say it, he obviously agreed with the doctor’s words and felt that An Changqing was an evildoer. At that time, he was about to be promoted to the prime minister, and he would never allow evildoers to appear in his family, ruining his reputation and bad deeds.

The dear young son, how important is his future.

In the end, Yu’s death forced him to protect An Changqing. An Zhike disliked their mother and son for this reason, or was really afraid that An Changqing was a wicked evildoer, and moved the mother and son to the most remote yard. He was not allowed to invite a doctor or step out of the gate of Anfu. I didn’t even look at it again.

“At that time, there was no doctor, so I could only wipe your body with clean water over and over again, and boil the rice soup hard to pour it…” Fortunately, Huang Tian paid off, and An Changqing’s high fever gradually subsided. After another six months, the red lines on the face gradually disappeared, and the scales on the legs also fell off by themselves.

The Yu family did not dare to say anything, except for the doctor and An Zhike that day, no one knew that An Changqing had ever had such a strange illness. It’s just that although An Changqing has recovered from the illness, An Zhike has also lost patience with their mother and son. The Yu family is not a scrambler, and was saddened by An Zhike’s change of face without hesitation at the beginning, and (gan gan) took his children to a corner.

Later, a pair of children grew up slowly. If she hadn’t deliberately recalled, she would have almost forgotten that An Changqing had such a strange illness when she was a child. It wasn’t until An Changqing and Xiao Zhige got married that she remembered it again, worrying that the strange illness would recur after marriage.

However, he couldn’t hide from him. Looking at his silent son, Yu reluctantly said with a smile: “Fortunately, there is only a small piece of it, so you can’t see it if you cover it up.”

While speaking, he looked at Xiao Zhige and said with gentle brows, “Thanks to the prince, I don’t mind.”

Since receiving the letter from her family, she has been worried that An Changqing’s strange illness will recur and that she will not be able to live well in Yanzhou and be treated coldly. But when she saw her son’s first face, she knew that a coward like An Zhike could not be compared with the Northern War King’s (xiong).

The love in his eyes cannot be faked. Not only did Xiao Zhige not mind An Changqing’s strange illness, he did not regard him as an evil evildoer, but instead carefully guarded him.
