Chapter 230 Traveling Together

After dinner, Si Haochen went to the study as usual to deal with the reports and secret letters sent from various places. After a while, Mingruo came with a silver mirror freshly baked from the craftsman's workshop.

Mingruo put the mirror on the table, and Si Haochen twitched the corner of his mouth. The silver mirror looked much more refined than before - not only was it polished into an oval shape, but the frame was also made of golden nanmu.

Si Haochen looked at Mingruo, his eyes clearly asking - what are you going to do?

Mingruo shrugged, placed the mirror behind the candlestick, and then used the frame to adjust the angle of the mirror. In this way, a piece of light that was brighter than the candlelight was projected onto the report in front of Si Haochen.

Si Haochen was a little surprised. He raised his hand and fiddled with the angle-adjustable frame. The 'bright light' was projected to different places as the angle of the silver mirror changed.

"What does this mean?" Why does the light of the same candle become brighter when it passes through a silver mirror?

"It's just a natural phenomenon..." Ming Ruo, a top student, went online and told Si Haochen about the 'diffuse reflection' and 'specular reflection' of light, and finally said with a smile, "That's it."

"Yeah." Although the little princess said a lot of new words, the truth she said was not difficult to understand.

"Is this silver mirror particularly suitable for you?" Mingruo joked deliberately.

"Yes, yes." Si Haochen caught Ming Ruo next to him, "During the day, my wife uses it to draw eyebrows and lips, and at night, my husband uses it to illuminate it. It's very useful."

"You should be busy, I'm going back to the dormitory to read some leisurely books."

"Stay with me for a while." Si Haochen held Mingruo in his arms while he picked up a report and read it seriously.

Mingruo was still interested in reading it with Si Haochen at first, but later he found out that it was all about government affairs - official transfers, water conservancy and farming, army reorganization... these were not as interesting as travel notes. Mingruo was bored and picked up a piece of Si Haochen at random.

Chen's hair began to be braided.

Si Haochen didn't care and continued to review the report. When Mingruo started to braid the seventh braid, Si Haochen said: "'To untie the bell, you must tie the bell.' Don't be ridiculous when you untie it."

"

"Hahaha." Mingruo then realized that she had already braided a lot of braids. With this look, she really wanted to teach Si Haochen how to dance a folk dance.

"Is it that funny?" Si Haochen poked Mingruo's forehead.

"Yeah." Mingruo smiled as she unwrapped her pigtails, which turned out to be charming big waves. "Have you ever seen people with curly hair like this?"

"Yeah." Si Haochen finished processing the last report, "There are Persians who lead camel teams in Xiliang, and their hair is like what you said..."

"Oh." Mingruo nodded. The world is so big and I really want to see it.

"Want to see people from other countries?" Si Haochen asked again, "Donghuan does not allow foreign merchants to enter the imperial capital. If there is a chance in the future, I can take you to Xiliang to see them."

"What's so good about Fanbang people..." Mingruo rolled her eyes in disgrace. She had studied abroad for many years and had seen countless "Fanbang people". "Fanbang's crops and objects are more interesting."

"Yeah." Si Haochen nodded, "Some of the things they made are indeed exquisite and interesting."

You can't go far away, so just visit the head office nearby: "I want to go to the village my grandma gave me. If I stay at home all day long, I will miss this wonderful spring time."

"You've only been in the house for a few days, and you still have the nerve to say, 'Stay in the house all day long'?" Si Haochen continued to add, "I think you want to go to Zhuangzi to go to school and ride horses. That's fine."

"Shouldn't you praise me for being studious and motivated?" If I start training as a military doctor, I won't have time to go out and play.

"Then let's go tomorrow. It's almost spring hunting. There are more things you can do if you learn to ride a horse." Si Haochen said with a smile.

"Spring Hunt? Organized by the Emperor?" The small radar on Mingruo's head immediately started working. According to her immature analysis, all events organized by Emperor Danxu were definitely Hongmen Banquets.

"Yes, but he won't go this year." Si Haochen stroked Mingruo's back to express comfort, "Several princes were assassinated one after another. He will not dare to leave the palace until the murderer is caught."

"Is it safe for us to go?" Mingruo still felt uneasy.

"Spring hunting is different from autumn hunting. You don't go into the mountains. You just hunt some free-range rabbits and pheasants in the hunting ground and palace. There is a horse farm in the hunting ground, and spring outing horses are prepared for the officials and noble ladies. They can ride them and play.

Fishing, boating..." Si Haochen thought for a moment and said, "Officials of third rank and above can go there with their families, and there has been no danger before."

Listening to what Si Haochen said, Mingruo roughly understood: Chunlie was probably a group of high-ranking officials who took their families to a holiday resort.

"If you don't want to go, we won't go." Si Haochen used to disdain this spring hunt like every other. He wanted to take the little princess to play, and he only planned to go this year. If the little girl has any doubts,

Just take her somewhere else to play, there is no need to make her feel uneasy about it.

"Let's talk about it then." If a group of people get together, something will always happen, so it's safest not to join in the fun.

"Okay, I will teach you how to ride a horse tomorrow." Si Haochen pinched Mingruo's cheek.

"I'll send a message to my second cousin first and tell him to go to Zhuangzi tomorrow." Mingruo took a piece of letter paper, wrote a note, put it in an envelope and asked the third grader to send it to the Duke's Mansion.

After Ming Ruo had washed up and was ready to go to bed, he came back on the third day of the lunar month. He also brought news that the Duke's and the Duke's Mansion would be dispatched tomorrow and wanted to go together.

"Okay, I understand." Mingruo thinks it's more fun when there are more people.

Si Haochen felt that it was superfluous to bring the second son of the Su family. With so many people going together, he had a bad feeling that his daughter-in-law would be snatched away by her mother's family.

Early the next morning, two carriages from the Duke's Mansion carried the old lady and three ladies to gather in front of Prince Yun's Mansion. Except for the eldest uncle and second cousin who were originally in the camp, they went directly to Zhuangzi from there.

The Duke, along with several other generals, major generals and family generals, rode around the carriage, looking very mighty and domineering.

Mingruo boarded Prince Yun's exclusive carriage and looked at His Royal Highness Prince Yun who was sitting on the soft couch: "Aren't you going to ride with your grandfather and the others?"

"I have just recovered from a serious illness and it is not suitable to ride a horse." Si Haochen supported his head with his hands and leaned on the soft armrest.

"Ha." Mingruo was speechless for a while.

According to normal circumstances, the three months after thoracotomy surgery is a recovery period, and the body is indeed relatively weak. But Si Haochen is very active every day, and he does not look like he is recovering from a serious illness. Ming Ruo dares to say responsibly that he is now

It's no problem if you go for a five-kilometer run.

The group left the city in such a high-profile manner, and soon the news that Prince Yun's Mansion and Duke Jingguo's Mansion were traveling together reached the ears of Emperor Danxu.
