Chapter 200 Cloud Tourism
Chu Qing finally laid out the map completely, and there was almost no place to start.
Eunuch Li hurriedly moved the small table prepared for Chu Qing to eat next to the royal desk. This was the only room that was spacious.
The emperor noticed that the conversation between Chu Qing and Hu Hengqiu was very casual, not as rigorous as the previous conversation with him. Not only did he not feel rude, but he felt very comfortable.
Chu Qing, on the other hand, opened the package and spread it here and there without letting Eunuch Li inspect it first and then call someone to unfold it. She was just like an ordinary woman who was used to doing housework.
When the emperor looked at her actions and found it interesting, a three-dimensional map of mountains and rivers appeared in front of him.
"This is... the Kingdom of Voss?" The emperor's eyes lit up.
"Yes." Chu Qing answered as he stood up and didn't think there was anything wrong.
I should have stood up first before replying. But my cold got worse, my head felt dizzy, and I wasn't that alert.
However, the emperor had no time to think about it, so he bypassed the imperial court and came to the map.
Hu Hengqiu stood on the other side, eyes fixed on the map.
Chu Qing had already sent someone to pass the map of Voss to the Secret Reconnaissance Department, and the one in front of him was just more detailed than the previous one.
But the black and white plan view is one thing, but the color three-dimensional view is shocking.
The two of them faced the map in silence for a long time. Chu Qing's stomach growled.
People can control their mouths and not make sounds, but they cannot control their stomachs.
"Your Majesty, can I have something to eat?" There was no one begging in front of the Emperor.
People are so hungry that they really can't care about anything.
"Oh, you eat what you have." The emperor finally said.
Chu Qing was cold, hungry, tired and dizzy, and had no intention of thinking about anything else. He walked past the emperor, sat down at the small table next to the imperial desk and started eating.
There isn't much warmth left at the moment.
Serve yourself a bowl of soup first, as the soup will cool slowly.
Although it is chicken soup, there are only two or three small dots of oil star like embellishment. It is so light!
Everything smells delicious when you're hungry! Chu Qing kept talking.
At this time, the emperor and Hu Hengqiu seemed to have only their eyes left.
"Where, where is the Palace of Voss?" the emperor asked, pointing to a place.
Hu Hengqiu looked in the direction pointed by the emperor. There was a small house there. It was bright yellow. If it could shine, it would be like a lump of gold.
Then compare it with the legend logo in the lower left corner and immediately confirm: "Yes, it is the palace."
"Then what is this?"
"It looks like a horse..." Hu Hengqiu looked at the legend and said, "It's a horse!" Then he turned around and asked Chu Qing: "Why is there a horse on your map?"
Chu Qing was having a good time eating, but seeing his rice bowl was bottoming out, he was wondering whether it would be appropriate to ask for another bowl of rice. He almost choked when he was asked this question, and hurriedly responded: "That's where Hesote herds horses, and further south is Wei."
Rat, food is grown over there. The one with white cotton is Tuhurt.”
It turns out that the main products of each region were also marked on the Chu and Qing maps.
Chu Qing felt depressed. Do you still need to ask? Hu Hengqiu should have understood it at a glance. He was eating.
He glanced at Eunuch Li again, do you want to ask him to give him more food?
Eunuch Li was also staring at the map at the moment. He had been accompanying the emperor for so many years and had seen many maps of the country. This was the first time he saw one like this, and he looked at it with a good eye.
When they didn't ask any more questions, Chu Qing quickly pulled all the rice in the bowl into her mouth and took another mouthful of vegetables. Before she could put it into her mouth, she heard the emperor say again: "What about here?"
So helpless.
The place where the emperor asked was blocked by his own body, so Chu Qing could not see it, so he had to walk over, holding the bowl in his hand, and took the opportunity to shine the bowl in the direction of Eunuch Li.
How stateless!
Hu Hengqiu happened to turn his attention to Chu Qing and realized: Chu Qing was just sitting there eating and returning to the emperor, and now he was actually planning to summon the emperor's chief steward!
Hu Hengqiu was anxious: You don't want to live a good life! He kept pouting at Chu Qing, gesturing for her to put the bowl back.
Chu Qing didn't understand, and thought to herself, "What are you doing? Let me answer the question?" I was about to speak! So he replied, "This is a woodland, where people hunt."
It is not easy to make three-dimensional marks in a limited space. In order to make it easier to travel, the map was wrapped in a bag. After squeezing, some of the marks were deformed and difficult to see.
Chu Qing knew that this bowl of rice was just a foundation.
When a person is particularly hungry, it is okay not to eat anything and he can still feel erect, but he is afraid that if he eats something, he will feel even hungrier if he eats less.
At this time, Chu Qing felt even more uncomfortable, so he just ignored it and said: "Manager Li, please give me a bowl of rice!"
Eunuch Li looked at the emperor. The emperor didn't pay attention to the movements around him. He was circling the map intently and squatting on the ground to take a closer look.
Eunuch Li didn't dare to disturb him, so he simply walked to the door and said something, and the little eunuch waiting outside went to prepare.
Chu Qing sat back at the small table and picked up vegetables before eating.
Hu Hengqiu's heart started to rise again: The emperor said he wanted you to go back!
The little eunuch came back quickly, and Eunuch Li took another tray from his hand, with rice, vegetables and soup still on it, all steaming hot.
Chu Qing was happy, it was finally hot. As soon as Eunuch Li put the tray down, she grabbed the rice bowl and slapped it on the plate!
So the one-plate rice bowl was born.
It happened that the emperor and Hu Hengqiu were pointing at a place and saying something. Hu Hengqiu explained for a long time that it was not where the emperor's finger was. The emperor became a little anxious and said, "You idiot! That's where I was asking!"
Hu Hengqiu looked aggrieved: You were making gestures like that, even though we were half a foot away, I couldn't tell where you were!
"Your Majesty, just take off your shoes and stand up!" Chu Qing said vaguely, the rice was still hot and fragrant!
"Can you step on it?" the emperor asked.
"Yes! It's not made of paper. It can't be crushed if stepped on!" Chu Qing finally swallowed the rice.
The emperor didn't even pay attention to Chu Qing's appearance at this moment. He took off his shoes and stepped on the map, walked to the location he wanted to ask, and asked Chu Qing: "Is this the junction of several regions?"
Chu Qing stretched her neck to take a look, then she simply came over with the "rice bowl" and chopsticks: "Yes! You stepped back on the wrong foot. Did you see the blue strip you stepped on just now? This is a river, right?
It was their junction, and the river became their common area connecting their territories."
The emperor looked around, took a step forward, stood on a mountain range and asked, "What kind of mountain is this?"
"Yujing Mountain, over there is Baishan Mountain."
"here?"
“Rocky Mountain, I don’t know what kind of rock it is, it’s different shades of yellow and red, it’s so beautiful!”
The emperor jumped to the side again: "Is this also a river?"
"Yes, this big river was formed after the snow on Yujing Mountain and Baishan Mountain melted. There is a fork over there."
"What about here?"
"I told you, Your Majesty, don't jump around or trample on the forest!" Chu Qing used the chopsticks in his hand to mark the "forest" at the emperor's heels.
"Oh? Oh!" The emperor quickly moved his feet, but he didn't know where to land.
"Okay, don't walk blindly. You stand in the corner here, and then you walk along the left hand side little by little. I will tell you step by step!" Chu Qing directed while grabbing the rice.
"Okay!" The emperor obediently jumped to the northeast corner of the map.
"Okay, let's start from here. It's just right. The place you step on is the level where Hong Guogong killed the ninth prince of Vos..."
"Our caravan passed through here for the first time. There was a grassland along the road, and there was no one in sight..."
"I saw a village when I got here, and my son struck up a conversation with the children there..."
"Yes, the iron pots and grain were exchanged for horses, and the wool was cheap. I bought it with silver..."
"This route was taken by Zhang Mingyu and his team. At that time..."
"There are a lot of rocks here, it seems like there was an earthquake hundreds of years ago..."
The emperor moved inch by inch, and Chu Qing followed him with a plate in hand.
"The interesting thing is here, the legend..."
"This place name is based on this story, at that time..."
Chu Qing had not received any special training, so when explaining the map, he was not very organized and just talked about whatever came to mind.
Just like Meng Dong did when he was a child, Chu Qing often held him for "hiking", which was only within a radius of five or six kilometers. But when he saw flowers, he talked about flowers, and when he saw grass, he talked about grass. If there was a car passing by, he would talk about the car.
…
At that time, Meng Daong could not speak, so Chu Qing took him out for a walk every day, holding him and talking to him for a while. Even if he could not speak, he was always obedient, putting the child in a state where he could learn.
The current emperor is just like Meng Dong back then. He didn't say a word and just followed Chu Qing's description.
Chu Qing also told the emperor about the road he had walked, the sights he had seen, and the things he had heard. Sometimes he would say like a tour guide: "How many years have passed here...";
Sometimes like a storyteller, "The wolf bared its fangs and suddenly...";
Sometimes I’m like a kindergarten teacher: “Watch your steps, don’t step into the forest, and protect the environment!”
Chu Qing ate and said she enjoyed herself, but Hu Hengqiu was worried about whether he wanted it or not.
Look at what this man looks like! He is holding a bowl, talking with his mouth full, gesticulating with chopsticks, and saying "you, you" to the emperor!
Eunuch Li looked at the emperor for a while, and his eyes almost popped out of his eye sockets. He was more worried than Hu Hengqiu!
