Prince Regent's Concubine

On the way, Ling Qingshi found that the only thing that pleased him about his visit to Kaiyang County this time was that he knew how to present the black powder to the emperor, so that he would not suspect that Xiao Chuyi had ulterior motives and intentionally messed with this thing.

Someone in Kaiyang County blew up the mountain with a big artillery battle. Based on this inspiration, they made black powder and said it was used on the battlefield. Then there is a source to be found. The only bad thing is the black powder maker. The house was repaired before going to Kaiyang County. If the little emperor would investigate sincerely, he would find out.

Xiao Chuyi was not worried about this, and said to Ling Qingshi, "Didn't you ask me to find other things for you before, and if you change the things at that time, he won't be afraid even if he finds out that the house was built in front."

"What's more, if this king really wants to rebel, why would he offer the formula and just throw a dynamite over him to kill him?"

Ling Qingshi felt that this made sense, "Then you change things when you go back, and then you tell him."

Ling Qingshi felt again, just be jealous, it doesn't matter, it's not that bad anyway.

After returning to Beijing, Ling Qingshi was free, and Xiao Chuyi was still very busy. He didn't go to court all day, and then he was left by the emperor to talk, or he was called to the palace after serving the bowl at home. I couldn't even eat a few meals.

After waiting for five or six days, it may be that everything that should be investigated has been investigated, and finally the result of the disposition has come out.

In Kaiyang County, none of Wei Man's families, the county magistrates, will be killed, and none of the three Linghe families will be left behind if they are involved in the incident in Kaiyang County. On the capital side, the emperor would like to have their families copied and killed, but he will not agree. There were a lot of people, one was the court officials and relatives of the emperor who were helping to intercede, and the other was that the queen mother returned to Beijing by herself without asking anyone in order to save Ling He.

It's still the kind of battle where no one knows anything outside the capital, and once they enter the capital, they will make a big fanfare to let the people know.

This obviously has the idea of ​​not leaving after the call. After all, the people know that she is back, and immediately drive her out of the capital, which will make the people think that the emperor is unfilial. When the time comes, the officials of the court will use this excuse to suppress people. If you don't want to have a bad reputation, it's impossible for people to leave.

Ling Qingshi also received the news of the queen mother's return. It was a little cold, and he was injured in front of him. He didn't even go out the first day because of his injuries. He was too lazy.

When he heard the news, he was still lying on the rocking chair and eating pears, and then he couldn't help sighing, "The queen mother is really smart, and she is really unwilling to give up. She has to go to this place and still want Ling He."

Sitting next to her, Bai Xue poured tea for Ling Qingshi, "The empress dowager's purpose is so obvious, the emperor must know about it. If those people in the court speak for the empress dowager and ask her to stay, I'm afraid the emperor will dislike them and stop using them."

She carefully analyzed, "Ever since Taifu Ling lost the position of prime minister and the queen mother was not in the capital, they have already lost power, and now they are still jumping out, don't they think they didn't kill themselves fast enough?"

Ling Qingshi smiled, "In this case, why not play the final role to gain more benefits for yourself, as long as the queen mother is in the capital, as long as the emperor does not completely tear up his face with the queen mother, they have hope to wait for the queen mother to promote them again stand up."

"The empress dowager is really capable," Bai Xue sighed.

Ling Qingshi finished gnawing on the pears, "No, even I thought she would not be able to return to Beijing until at least next year, but I didn't expect that she would find a chance to get herself back by herself."

Ling Qingshi threw the pear core away, "As soon as she comes back, I have to be busy again." After all, the Queen Mother likes to trouble him, and even this incident was caused by him accompanying Lin Yu to Kaiyang County.Although it was Ling He who made the first move, the Queen Mother was unreasonable.

"Let's go, accompany me out of the city," Ling Qingshi asked Bai Xue to lead the horse.

He wanted to add some chips to himself before the Queen Mother dealt with him, a chip that would benefit the country and the people.

Ling Qingshi wanted to make cement. Before, he asked Xiao Chuyi to find materials for him. In the past few days, he had already emptied the materials for making black powder and put the materials for making cement in. Xiao Chuyi also found two Craftsman, Ling Qingshi roughly talked about how to make cement, and he will come to see the results today.

As soon as he approached, before entering the yard, Ling Qingshi heard an excited voice from inside, "It's done, it's done, the ground is hard."

"This cement is really a good thing. It can't be smashed even with a hammer, and it won't turn into mud when it's raining. If it is taken out to pave roads, it will be much more convenient in the future."

"Who says it's not? Let's go and get someone to send a letter to the concubine," the two said as they walked out of the house. Once they came out, it would be better to see Ling Qingshi outside the yard with Bai Xue .

The two excitedly waved at Ling Qingshi, "Wangfei, Wangfei, the cement is ready."

"The ground is hard, just like what Wang Hao said," the two of them ran towards the yard and opened the door for Ling Qingshi.

"Did you put cement on the house?" Ling Qingshi entered the yard and asked the two of them.

"Yes, we didn't know if it would work, and we were afraid that it would be bad for people to see it outside, so we painted it inside the house first, thinking that if it didn't work, we'd try again, but we didn't expect it to work this time."

The two happily led Ling Qingshi in to look at the concrete floor.

It wasn't painted much, Ling Qingshi squatted down and pressed it with his fingers, and saw that there were still some marks left by Fu's ax and hammer on it, but it was not deep, and it was obvious that it was done.

Ling Qingshi was also happy, "Then follow this ratio in the future. This cement is very useful and will be needed in the future. Both of you have made contributions. In the future, the production of cement will be handed over to the two of you, and you will divide the work yourself. "

"I will tell the prince to arrange official positions for you."

The two of them didn't expect this benefit, and immediately knelt down to thank Ling Qingshi.

Ling Qingshi then ordered them to pave the yard and the road outside with cement, and he would bring someone to see it in two days.

The two agreed in succession, knowing that the person who came must have a high status, and the cement is of great use. It is very likely that the person who came was the one from the palace. up.

Ling Qingshi went around in each room, and also looked outside. He didn't see any traces of black powder being made, so he was relieved.

He ordered the guards to protect the two craftsmen, and left with Bai Xue.

Ling Qingshi was not in a hurry to go back to the city, but went around and went to Pingle Temple.

This time there was no need to carry anyone back, Ling Qingshi went very easily.

Ling Qingshi just planned to go for a casual stroll, and then ran into Master Zhikong, the abbot.

Zhikong said a word of fate, and then invited Ling Qingshi to sit down and drink tea.

"Is the princess here today for someone?"

Ling Qingshi was a little confused, "Why?"

Zhikong was also a little confused, "Could it be that the old man guessed wrong?" Zhikong stretched out his finger and pointed outside.

Ling Qingshi looked along his line of sight, there was a courtyard outside, and many people were sitting and drinking tea and chatting, but when Ling Qingshi went out, his eyes were on one person.

Qin Yuyan!
