The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

But the emperor soon discovered that eating hot pot was more interesting than cooking it yourself, so he asked Shen Dongsu to sit down and eat together.

The old eunuch beside the emperor smiled with his eyes narrowed, and kept saying that the emperor had not eaten so happily for a long time.

The emperor also likes to drink fine wine, a mouthful of mutton and a mouthful of wine, which makes him feel comfortable.

Prince Ling was afraid that he was too drunk, so he kept urging him to drink less. However, the emperor was not happy and said that he had a good drinking capacity.

When I was young, I was in the military camp. I was gifted fine wine by the late emperor, and I drank with the soldiers all night without getting drunk.

First, he praised Shen Dongsu to King Ling, saying that he had chosen a good wife, who was better than the noble girls in Chang'an City.

Master Huikong should be rewarded for his good predictions back then.

He also said that he wanted to reward the Shen family for being able to educate such a good girl, and asked Shen Dongsu if any of his brothers were studying. Have you ever enlisted in the military? Receive them all from the capital!

Shen Dongsu smiled and declined, saying that his grandfather was old and could not travel long distances. They lived a good life in their hometown.

Then the emperor chatted with Prince Ling again, and when they talked about Prince Ling's mother, Shen Dongsu was too embarrassed to just sit and listen, so he went to prepare the fruit plate.

When they came back, they found that both father and son's eyes were red.

In fact, when the emperor said he wanted to reward Huikong, Shen Dongsu knew that the emperor was definitely drunk!

Whether this man is an emperor, a prince, or a common man, he will start talking and bragging as soon as he gets drunk.

Well, of course, the emperor's eloquent words are not bragging, but you take what the emperor said when he was drunk seriously.

If you go to ask for a reward after you sober up, wouldn't that make things difficult for the emperor?

When the emperor said that he would take the Shen family to Beijing, Shen Dongsu quietly replaced the refined wine with ordinary fruit wine.

If you continue to drink like this, you will be really drunk and fall into Prince Ling's Mansion. Tomorrow there will be a censor to visit Prince Ling.

Unexpectedly, the emperor's appetite was quite large. He had eight plates of mutton slices and was still unfinished.

Shen Dongsu originally wanted to ask, isn't it said that the royal family can't eat more than three meals a day?

Not to mention three chopsticks for mutton, there are already thirty chopsticks!

But she didn’t dare to ask! This is the queen's job, so don't let her be a spoiler as a daughter-in-law.

After eating hot pot and drinking hawthorn apple tea for digestion, King Ling personally sent the emperor back to the palace.

Shen Dongsu rewarded the eunuchs and guards who accompanied the emperor with a large purse. Especially the eunuch beside the emperor was rewarded with a full hundred gold!

Her heart aches! How much land can I buy in Shenjia Village and how many ducks can I buy for my grandpa?

But this money has to be spent. The emperor will definitely ask when he wakes up tomorrow, what did I say when I was drunk?

Whenever the eunuch said something bad about Prince Ling and Princess Ling, the emperor would believe it.

She also had to ask him to help find out the palace's reaction, so that if the queen wanted to hold Prince Ling accountable for this matter, she could prepare in advance.

After seeing the emperor off, Shen Dongsu felt physically and mentally exhausted, which was even more tiring than studying movable type printing.

No wonder it is said that accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger. Who dares to take it lightly in front of a tiger?

But today's hot pot meal was so worth it. The emperor really liked movable type printing and also approved of the enlightenment book with annotations and punctuation published by Lingwang Bookstore.

In the future, if the nobles use this point to attack King Ling, they will have the emperor's endorsement.

At the same time, Shen Dongsu also thought that since the emperor was so in favor of publishing the Enlightenment Book, those Hanlin scholars also supported King Ling in publishing the book.

Why doesn't she write a basic arithmetic book while the iron is hot? It was time to teach Wang Ling Arabic numerals. She always used simplified Chinese characters when doing calculations.

King Ling obviously saw it, but just like a punctuation mark, if she didn't tell him, he wouldn't ask.

He did it with his actions and fully supported her! Whatever she wants to do, he supports it. No matter how curious he was, he wouldn't pry into anything she didn't want to do.

For such a boss and partner, everyone would trust him!

It was King Ling who felt that it was too early to publish Arabic numerals, but it could be used commercially first, and then officially published in a book after it spread among the people.

However, publishing a basic mathematics book is not a problem. Put the multiplication table on it and publish a primary school mathematics book.

The nobles have always firmly grasped the Four Books and Five Classics, so we will take a path they don't want, arithmetic, studying things... we will pick up any subjects that can cultivate talents in Daxia.

Shen Dongsu asked his servants to clean up the mess while thinking about the bookstore. She couldn't help at all with the situation in Youzhou.

The only thing he can do is to make more money and gain more reputation for King Ling. The nobles were considered mortal enemies, and it was impossible for anyone to support King Ling.

Then recruit the businessmen, commoners, and untouchables that the nobles gave up. With their support, the nobles now feel that these people are not useful.

But when it comes to a real war, there is still strength in numbers, and a single spark can ignite it!

Seeing that Prince Ling hadn't come back yet, Shen Dongsu didn't want to go to bed alone, so he went to the study to write a plan.

Bookstore publishing, opening up trade routes, workshops, field planting and other matters, if she wants to do it, she won't have to worry about having nothing to do.

Ms. Jiang was still asking about the second auction. The Jiang family asked Ms. Jiang to help them. The Jiang family wanted to sell the products such as glass and perfume overseas.

If it is said that it is worth a lot of profits in Daxia, if it is sold overseas, it is worth a lot of money.

Although Daxia banned the sea, there were still commercial exchanges with subsidiary countries such as Japan and Baekje.

The Jiang family's ships can also go to these island countries, and with just a word from King Ling, they can sell perfume and colored glaze overseas.

Shen Dongsu felt that it was not easy to get too far for the time being, as there was still a major case at sea that had not yet broken out.

Prince Ling's Mansion is now involved in Shanghai business. What if the Chen and Lu families find out that Prince Ling is also involved in the case?

It is better to wait until Jiangnan Mo Xiujin exposes the slave smuggling case and cleans out a group of maritime merchants before entering the maritime business.

Therefore, Shen Dongsu declined the Jiang family politely, and at the same time, he kindly reminded the Jiang family that it would be best to hibernate their business in the past year.

After Mrs. Jiang thought deeply, she was grateful for Shen Dongsu's reminder. She stopped mentioning the business at sea and concentrated on organizing the second auction.

Shen Dongsu integrated the mathematics textbooks from his childhood according to his memory, and briefly wrote a few chapters, preparing to give Ling Moxiao a look before continuing.

Then she took the letter paper and wrote a letter to her family. At this time, she didn't know that the strange female doctor had left Shenjia Village. The letter first warned the Shen family to be wary of this woman.

Then I focused on talking to Father Shen and Grandpa Shen about rice seedlings. These days, farmers don't have the concept of raising seedlings and transplanting rice seedlings.

To grow rice, you need to spread the rice seeds into the fields, and you have to be careful of birds to eat them, and then you just let them grow freely.

The seedling emergence rate is low, the yield is low, and the insect pest rate is high. The north of Yizhou specializes in wheat, rice, and high-grain crops, while the south of Yizhou specializes in rice.

There is only Yizhou City in the entire Daxia Kingdom. It is a city where wheat and rice are grown and where the north and the south communicate.

The Shen family didn't have many paddy fields before, it was all land. It is still a barren third-class land, and the harvest of various sweet potatoes is not high.

This was not the case since Shen Dongsu became Princess Ling. The betrothal gift given by Prince Ling included paddy fields. She also bought paddy fields herself, and the Shen family bought some more.

Ponds and fertilized land are being fertilized in preparation for planting rice next spring.

Shen Dongsu was afraid that she would write the letter too late and would not have time to raise seedlings, so although it was still early for spring, she still wrote in detail how to raise seedlings and transplant rice.

She didn't know how long she wrote under the lamp. She changed two quills and rubbed her sore neck while moving.

I heard Ling Moxiao's voice coming from beside me: "Can raising seedlings and growing rice like this really increase your income?"

Shen Dongsu was startled: "When did the prince come back? Why was there no sound?"

"Yes, raising seedlings in this way can not only increase yields, but also because the seedlings are strong and have thick root systems, they are less susceptible to pests and diseases."

"If the prince doesn't believe it, you can allocate a test field next spring and try my method."

Prince Ling laughed: "How could I not believe in the lady! I just didn't expect that the lady is also proficient in planting."

Shen Dongsu smiled proudly and said: "I am proficient in many things, and the prince will gradually know them in the future."

Ling Moxiao didn't know what he thought. Under the light, the tips of his ears turned red, and even his neck turned red.

He coughed slightly to cover it up and said vaguely: "Waiting for my husband."

Shen Dongsu tilted his head and looked at him and asked, "What are you waiting for?"

Ling Moxiao leaned close to her ear: "Waiting to see your other abilities."

Shen Dongsu felt confused and asked him more and more doubtfully: "Did the prince think of something? Please tell me and I will see if I can do it."

Prince Ling actually left the study as if he was running away: "It's too late, hurry up and get ready for bed!"

Then he rushed Shen Dongsu to the bedroom, and he actually slept in the study. He said that the emperor had confessed something and he had to write notes all night.

Shen Dongsu didn't ask any questions, and asked Nanny Ji to give her two quilts. She then made the small bed in the study room and went to sleep on the big bed.

Little did he know that Ling Moxiao had some wine with the emperor at dinner and was unintentionally flirted with by Shen Dongsu just now.

He felt that his self-control was too poor tonight. If he slept with Dong Su and tried to restrain her, it would be torture!

So, let’s sleep in the study room!

Three years, so long, so torturous!

Little girl, can you enlighten me soon?

In order not to let Shen Dongsu see it, Ling Moxiao actually lit a lamp and wrote a note. He watched the lights in the bedroom turn off before he fell asleep on the small bed.

That night, both of them tossed and turned. Shen Dongsu had never noticed that the bedroom in the palace was so big?

From time to time, the sound of pines and bamboos being blown by the wind can be heard from the back window, and from time to time there are shadows of bamboo leaves on the windows, floating past like little paws.

Without that person beside me, the bed seemed so big and empty, and I felt like there were noises under the bed.

She pulled the quilt and covered her head. Next time she would write a booklet with Ling Mo Xiao...

Not to mention Ling Moxiao, without a small heater in his arms, without a sweet-smelling and soft little person, he really couldn't sleep alone.

Why didn't you feel good sleeping alone before? I wonder if the little girl slept well?

The rooster was about to crow when the couple fell asleep. It was very rare that Shen Dongsu woke up when Ling Moxiao got up to go to court.

For the first time, she took the initiative to climb out of the warm bed and prepare the clothes for Ling Mo Xiao to go to court.

Seeing that it was still early, she made another bowl of noodle soup, which was the highest standard for farmers.

It was made with the leftover hot pot soup from last night. For rural people, it is a good way to praise a pot of soup.

That is: "Save it for cooking noodles tomorrow morning!"

Even the gray whole wheat noodles are cooked fragrant and delicious. What's more, the snow-white flour has been sifted three times by the palace.

She made the pulled noodles by herself, cooked the mutton soup, and served it with green garlic sprouts. This bowl is much more stomach-warming than eating bird's nest with snacks.

Ling Moxiao was still unsatisfied after finishing a bowl. He smiled and asked Shen Dongsu to go back to sleep and eat mutton noodles together when he came back.

Shen Dong went to sleep comfortably, and for some reason, he was happier to see that Ling Moxiao liked to eat the 'leftover soup' noodles than she did herself.

Pulling back the quilt, she felt no fear this time and soon fell into a deep sleep.

It was already three o'clock in the morning when I woke up, but Ling Moxiao hadn't come back yet.

When she asked, Jiasi didn't come back. Her keen sixth sense made her heart tremble, and she always felt that something bad had happened.

I hurriedly asked Nanny Ji to arrange for people to go to find Jiasi outside the palace and see where the prince is now?

When an official goes to court, his servants will wait outside the palace with carriages. The same goes for King Ling. Jia Si and the groom are waiting outside the palace.

Jia Si is very considerate. If the emperor keeps King Ling in the palace, he will ask the groom to come back and say something.

Now no one has come back to report the news. In other words, either Jia Si can't escape, or Jia Si doesn't know why King Ling didn't leave the palace?

The escort arranged by Nanny Ji left Xishan and hurried back before entering Chang'an City. Something big had indeed happened.

Chang'an City was actually banned! People in the city are not allowed to go out, and people outside the city are not allowed to enter.

Even though he had the badge of Prince Ling's Mansion, he was unable to enter the city. The Imperial City Guards were replaced by the Forbidden Army to defend the city.

The Forbidden Army is selfless and will not recognize any badges except the emperor's handwriting!

The guard also said that he saw a servant with the Chen family's belt card, who was about to enter the city, saying that something had happened to Prince Chen.

The Imperial Guards also refused to let him go.

Shen Dong Sucai wanted to ask who Chen Shizi was? He suddenly realized, isn't it Chen Xingzhen?

He took over from Ling Moxiao and went to Youzhou, but no military information was reported. What could happen? Hungry or cold? Are you crying to find your mother?

He quickly shook his head. Now was not the time to think about Chen Xingzhen. What happened in Chang'an City?

Considering that the emperor just had hot pot at Prince Ling's Mansion last night, could it be that he got sick from overeating?

It shouldn’t be. If that were the case, Prince Ling’s Mansion should be surrounded now!

The queen and the prince forced the palace to rebel? Well, it shouldn't be. If this were the case, it wouldn't be the imperial army guarding the city.

The Forbidden Army is regarded as the emperor's private army. They only obey the emperor's orders. The guarding of the city by the Forbidden Army means that the emperor has nothing to do.

If the emperor is fine, then Prince Ling must be fine too. Shen Dongsu could only comfort himself in this way.

Only then did she realize that she had very few connections and could not find anyone with whom she could negotiate.

He quickly asked Yue Jian to ask Ms. Jiang, but it turned out that Ms. Jiang, who always knew everything about Chang'an City, was also confused this time.

However, she said that what was certain was that there was no rebellion, because if there had been a rebellion, the shouts of killing would have been heard, and the water in the moat was clean and there was no blood.

These words startled Shen Dongsu, and he asked Yue Jian to find out that there was a rebellion in the city when the emperor ascended the throne.

The city gates were also sealed, and after a day and night of killing, the people discovered that the water in the moat had turned red.

The sewage flowing out of the city is all blood.

This incident has frightened the people of Chang'an for decades. The old people only dared to whisper it to their children and grandchildren, and no one dared to say it openly.

Mrs. Jiang advised Shen Dongsu not to be anxious. There were people outside the city waiting for news. Even if there was an emergency, the city would be closed for two days at most.

Shen Dongsu was glad that Ling Moxiao had eaten a bowl of mutton noodles before going out. If he was imprisoned in the palace, he could at least survive.

She asked her guards to wait at the city gate and report back immediately after finding out the news.

She discussed with Aunt Ji, the housekeeper, and Yue Jian to prepare for the worst.

First, bury the existing gold and silver in the palace under the tree in the backyard, and bury it deeper.

Yue Jian looked at her and hesitated several times. She asked directly: "Do you want to ask me if I want to escape?"

Yue Jian shook his head and said seriously: "That's not the case, but the prince told the slave before that if there is any emergency, he should send the princess back to Guangzhou first."
