A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Su Shunci was afraid that Su Zhilan would really have such an idea, so she was frightened and tried to persuade her.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. It will be disastrous if Third Aunt finds out about this."

"It is right for a girl to prepare for marriage."

Su Zhilan tilted her head and looked at Su Shunci, "Then the fourth sister is also a girl, how can she do business?"

Su Shunci didn't know how to explain for a moment, and said vaguely: "Because the fourth sister is not engaged."

Su Zhilan curled her lips, "What's so good about getting engaged?"

She was still young and didn't understand marriage, let alone the relationship between men and women. Su Shunci couldn't explain it, so she could only talk about something else and change the subject.

Several people talked about the ship again, and Su Shunci put forward many ideas and opinions.

Suddenly, a servant came over from the corridor not far away. Song Hongshen took a few steps back and dodged to the side.

The person who came was a maid serving in the inner courtyard. She said that the old princess asked the third cousin and the fourth daughter to come over to explain some business matters.

Su Shunci called Su Zhilan to go together, but Su Zhilan waved her hand and said, "Fourth sister, go ahead. There's no one here. I just need to think about it a little more."

Su Shunci thought that nothing would happen in the palace. Besides, Su Zhilan was accompanied by maids, and since she liked them, she might as well let her be.

After the two left, Su Zhilan sat at the table, thinking about the suggestions Su Shunci had just made, and fell into deep thought again.

Song Hongshen walked in. Bai Guo, the maid beside Su Zhilan, wanted to speak, but Song Hongshen stopped her with a look.

Bai Guo knew that she should remind her young lady, but the man in front of her was too powerful. She was so scared by just a glance at him that she dared not speak.

Song Hongshen stood beside Su Zhilan, staring at the drawings in her hand.

To be precise, this is not a blueprint of the entire ship, but a design for the ship's defense and offense.

Although Su Zhilan's drawing was still a rough sketch, Song Hongshen's eyes still lit up.

I thought that this little girl's paintings were much better than those of the people in the Military Arsenal.

The Zhou Dynasty had a navy in Fujian, and naturally also had warships. The important weapon on the warships to attack the enemy was the slapping pole, which could use the power of heavy objects falling from a high altitude to destroy the enemy warships.

However, the slapping pole also has disadvantages. If the fulcrum is too high, the height of the boulder will be limited and the power will be reduced. When the windlass rope is released, if the enemy ship cannot be hit, it may hit yourself.

At this moment, Su Zhilan was also drawing a paddle pole, but it was different from the paddle poles on the warships before the Great Zhou Dynasty. She changed the shape and structure of the paddle pole. In Song Hongshen's opinion, if the warship was modified according to Su Zhilan's method, the operation would be more labor-saving and powerful than before, and it would also save space on the warship.

Song Hongshen suddenly pointed to one of the spots and said, "If it were two inches shorter, it would be even better."

Su Zhilan had no idea there was someone nearby, and her hands were shaking with fear. She turned around and saw a man wearing a dark black python robe, a wide brocade belt around his waist, and a jade crown to hold his hair. He had a sharp face, a resolute expression, and deep eyes that revealed a strong sense of oppression.

She didn't recognize Song Hongshen, but she could recognize that the clothes he was wearing were the uniform of a prince.

I wondered which prince in the capital it was.

But she still bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Song Hongshen's eyes did not leave the blueprint, and he asked, "Do you recognize me?"

Su Zhilan shook her head, "I don't recognize it, but I recognize the clothes."

Then he asked, "Your Majesty also knows how to build ships?"

Song Hongshen said: "This is also part of the art of war."

The Song family had many brothers, but his father, Marquis Zhongyi, was the most strict with him. In addition to being taught by his family teacher, he was also taught by Shen Zhixiu. As for military tactics, Marquis Zhongyi taught him personally.

During this period, the third master of the Xie family was in Beijing, and his father often asked him to go and listen to the third master Xie's sermons.

Fortunately, his eldest brother was firmly seated on the throne of the heir of the Marquis of Loyalty, and he was also crowned king for his military exploits, otherwise he would have been afraid of misunderstandings from his brothers.

Su Zhilan had never seen Song Hongshen, and she didn't expect that the man in front of her was her fiancé. She just thought he was a prince who was good friends with her eldest brother Su Yuanzhou, so he came.

Seeing that he had no other intentions and was simply talking about the batting rod, Su Zhilan relaxed.

She followed what he said and thought about it seriously. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that he was right. As the two of them talked back and forth, Su Zhilan felt that her thoughts were broadened a lot.

Especially when Song Hongshen was talking, he would give her some practical examples and tell her what she might encounter at sea. After hearing this, Su Zhilan felt that the pictures she had drawn before were just empty talk.

Su Zhilan was greatly surprised and delighted to find that the person in front of her even knew something about the materials for shipbuilding.

Countless questions suddenly popped up in my mind that I wanted to ask him. Just as I was about to open my mouth, a servant walked in.

He whispered beside Song Hongshen, "Your Majesty, the Third Master asks you to come over."

Song Hongshen nodded and was about to leave.

Su Zhilan subconsciously grabbed his sleeve and said, "Don't leave yet, I..."

She wanted to say that she hadn't finished her question, but before she could say anything she realized that she had been rude.

She quickly loosened his sleeves and bowed according to the rules her mother taught her, "Farewell, Your Highness."

Song Hongshen turned his head and looked at the wrinkles on his sleeves. He laughed and asked, "What do you want to say? Go ahead. It's okay."

Su Zhilan did not dare to delay his business, and quickly said, "I just want to ask, when can I ask the prince a question?"

Song Hongshen was stunned for a moment, "You have a lot of questions?"

Su Zhilan nodded hurriedly.

She was young, and Hai taught her the rules of the capital every day, but she only followed them superficially and didn't take them to heart.

But she looked so dignified that no one noticed anything unusual about her.

At the moment, he was only focused on asking questions and helping Su Shunci build a good boat, so he didn't consider whether it was against the rules or not.

Song Hongshen thought for a moment and said, "Three days later in the afternoon, go to Guangfulou. Think about what you want to ask in advance."

Su Zhilan was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Song Hongshen left, Su Zhilan also put away the pictures on the table.

The maid Bai Guo hesitated and said, "Miss, isn't it a bad idea for you to meet this prince privately? What if he is a bad guy?"

Su Zhilan said firmly: "No, how can someone who can enter Prince Ning's mansion be a bad person? Besides, I just want to ask a few questions. How can he harm me? Can a dignified prince rob me of my wealth?"

Bai Guo smiled bitterly, thinking that her young lady was still too naive, and she still had to tell the lady and the young master.

Then I heard Su Zhilan say again: "Don't tell anyone about this. You will be with me at the time, and this is a restaurant, what can happen?"

Just at this moment, a maid from the inner courtyard came over and said that the eldest lady wanted the fifth lady to go visit the inner courtyard garden.

On the way to the inner courtyard, Bai Guo suddenly asked, "Miss, which prince is this?"

Su Zhilan was stunned. She really didn't know which prince it was. But she had a plan. She called a servant and asked, "Which prince came to our palace today? Pick a young one."

"In reply to Miss Fifth, the young princes who came today are King Xuanwu, King Zhongyong, and His Royal Highness King Cheng."

The servant left after saying this.

Su Zhilan stopped and thought for a moment, "King Xuanwu's arm was broken, so it definitely wasn't him. King Zhongyong... probably wasn't him either."

The two are engaged. If it is the Loyal and Brave King Song Hongshen, how can he not reveal his identity?

"Then only King Cheng is left. It should be His Royal Highness King Cheng."
