Baoyu felt proud after hearing this, and said with a smile: "One hanging for each person."
Everyone said: "Who has never seen a pennies? Why don't you give us this purse you are wearing?"
After saying that, everyone gathered around to unpack their bags and took the items Baoyu had brought without any explanation. Then everyone gathered around Baoyu and sent him to Jia Mu's door.
Jia's mother was standing there waiting. When Baoyu came back, she knew that his father had not made it difficult for him. She couldn't help but feel happy. She hugged him and praised him heartily.
It didn't take long for someone to spread the news about what happened that day, which aroused another round of discussion among the people in the capital, which actually added a lot of jokes.
Maybe it wouldn't have been like this before, but after all the troubles caused by the Jia family, people in the capital only have one impression of the Jia family, that is, the children are useless and the inner house is in chaos.
Jiusi was not interested in these things about the Jia family, so he forgot about them after hearing about them.
Nowadays, she is obsessed with how to transform weapons and strengthen the military force. For this reason, she went to the palace to discuss with the emperor.
The emperor didn't expect that she had such talent. After hearing her suggestion, he couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect that you have such ability. You are really a woman who cannot be compared to men. If it weren't for the fact that there are no women in government in our dynasty, I would have
I want you to join the army camp and serve me."
Hearing this, Jiusi glanced at him angrily: "Your Majesty, you should accept your magical powers!
I'm already so busy even though I'm not an official. If I really become an official, I won't have any free time. It's better to be an idler like I am now."
After hearing this, the emperor smiled and teased her a few words, and then asked about the improvement of weapons and the training of soldiers: "I have seen all these drawings of yours. Although I think it is feasible, the time is not a bit too short."
Already?
If the envoy arrives and this matter has not been settled, it will cause more trouble. It would be safer to follow the old rules."
Jiusi had known that he would say this, so he waved the model placed outside the palace to be brought in. After all the eunuchs had retreated, he then showed it to the emperor and explained: "The time is a bit short, but if I have
Make something and start making it now!
And in order to save time, my changes are all of this type of adjustment. I only need to replace some parts and do not need to make them all again. In this way, these weapons can definitely be improved before the envoys arrive.
Of course, you can also send me more people or something. After all, it’s not easy for me to get involved in military matters. From now on, this matter will be their job. It would be better to contact them earlier to avoid unnecessary trouble.
The trouble is coming."
When the emperor saw those drawings, he already had the idea of arranging manpower. He was still thinking about how to mention it to the other party, but unexpectedly she spoke first.
He would not miss such a good thing, so he hurriedly responded: "What you said makes sense. Most of the soldiers in the army are rough guys who don't have any scruples in their actions. It's really hard for a girl like you to stay there all the time.
If it ruins your reputation, it will be my fault.
But it’s not easy to publicize this matter, lest it bring you any trouble. After all, it involves the military, so you can’t be careless!
Let's do this, I will send someone to send a message to several generals later, asking them to send people to look for you. These things will be done secretly for the time being, and after everything is settled, we will announce it in the court. How about it?"
Jiusi said that the purpose of this matter was to ask the emperor for someone to do work for her. As for whether it would be announced publicly or not, she didn't care much. After hearing this, she nodded: "I don't know much about the court affairs. You just look at the arrangements."
That’s fine, as long as they don’t seek death to break into my place, I can send anyone there.”
The emperor heard the implications of her words and couldn't help but coughed twice in embarrassment. Didn't this girl just ask the secret guards to send her several messages? How could she criticize Huai like this?
Although he was complaining in his heart, he didn't show it on his face and said with a smile: "Don't worry, although they are a bit rough, they are also polite and will not do anything like breaking into someone's house."
Seeing this, Jiusi glanced sideways at him and nodded to express his understanding.
Then the two of them talked about this matter for a long time, until it was almost dark, and she came out of the palace.
However, although she came out, those things were left behind. It was an important military matter, and it was definitely not something she could do with just a few words. The emperor was bound to summon the ministers to discuss the matter, so the things had to be left behind.
Wow!
She didn't know what the emperor said to those ministers, but within two days, several generals came to her house, and they all centered on her, which made her very uncomfortable.
What do military generals love?
Naturally, things like promotions, weapons, and military books can save lives in battles.
The former is guard and glory, while the latter is the guarantee for their safe return.
Now that Jiusi can improve these weapons and enhance the life-saving guarantee for them and the soldiers, they will naturally be much more enthusiastic.
Jiusi was not an arrogant person, and when she saw how enthusiastic they were, she didn't have any secrets. She basically taught them whatever they wanted, and the generals were so happy that they wanted to offer her up.
Fortunately, they knew the difference between men and women, so they didn't break the rules even though they were very happy. However, they asked their wife to prepare many good things for her. Even if Jiusi refused many times, it was useless, so she had to accept them in the end.
However, she is not someone who takes advantage of others, and she often returns gifts that women like, so everyone gets along quite well.
Of course, in order to better understand the situation in the army, she would go to the military camp from time to time, but in order not to attract other people's attention, most of the time she would go quietly, and she would be accompanied by a general every time to avoid being caught as a spy.
stand up.
But since she taught the generals how to modify their weapons and how to improve the soldiers' strength, she didn't like to go there much.
Every time I go, it's like being a thief. It's better to go less often, otherwise it will ruin my good image.
After understanding the specific situation in the army, she revised the rough plan based on their situation. Then, she began to concentrate on drawing, changing the pictures, selecting materials to make models, and discussing with the generals how to implement them.
How to best implement it.
Of course, there are only so many weapons. It would definitely not work if she only drew weapons. Otherwise, how many would she have to draw!
In addition to weapons, she also painted the armor worn by soldiers, equipment for training, vehicles for transporting grain and grass, and the modification of some weapons of mass destruction.
But what the soldiers liked the most was the compressed biscuits she had people make. Although they were not as good as the ones in modern society, they were still a rare good thing in this era.
With this thing, once there is a war somewhere, or there is a need for rescue at the border, their marching speed will no longer be limited due to food and grass. In this way, the chance of winning will be much greater. After all, soldiers are very fast.
