January 24th is the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Jincheng, Zhang Yuan.
The last emperor wore a dragon robe and held a Zhengdan court meeting in the living room.
Ahem, if you say it's a court meeting, it's actually just a bunch of old people and young people coaxing the last emperor to be happy.
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor!"
"All the ruthless princes are free!"
Seeing the 20 or 30 people kneeling down with cheers and cheers, and the last emperor walking in the main hall, I felt that wonderful feeling of ruling over the east, high and high.
Alas, there is just a small courtyard there, not his palace!
The courtiers were also uneven, and they lacked the solemnity and dignity of a court at all.
"reward!"
Although he felt that there was a "fly in the ointment", the late emperor could not deny that he had become addicted to being an emperor.
After kowtowing and shouting "Long Live the Mountain", this is the reward stage that all the "courtiers" like to hear.
According to the level of "grade", the last emperor will be rewarded.
Each letter contains more than a few silver coins.
All the rewards added up to at least several hundred silver dollars.
The last emperor spends money to his heart's content, and the old and the young can also get rewards from their emperor's legs.
It can be said that everyone is happy.
The queen wore a long gown and met many female relatives in the flower hall on the other side.
The topics discussed by women are more relaxed.
From foreigners to foreign students, from men to concubines.
There are many topics such as clothes, jewelry, hairstyles, makeup, cocktail parties, banquets, etc.
As they were talking, someone mentioned Gu Qingcheng next door.
"I heard that Princess Qingcheng is having a great time in the capital."
"That's wrong, I just fell in love with a foreigner and became good sisters with the daughter of the Marshal's house."
"He has heard about it too. If someone wants to make trouble with Princess Qingcheng, she doesn't even need to take action herself. The handsome daughter of the prince will kill them with a whip."
"Oh, after all, Princess Gu Lun can live a decent life in the capital after leaving the palace!"
"What's that? He heard very much that after the New Year, Princess Qingcheng will be ugly to the country. I heard that Country Y also invited her."
Jincheng is too close to the capital, and all kinds of gossip news can be spread from outside in the shortest possible time.
Princess Qingcheng's status as a royal noblewoman has attracted the most attention from the survivors of the previous dynasty.
Therefore, even if they are two to three hundred miles away, the female relatives in Jincheng can know the latest news about the leader of Wei Yuan in the capital.
When the queen heard everyone's chattering, she couldn't help but squeeze the veil tightly.
Princess Qingcheng is so famous in the capital?
Not only was he not "purged" by the commander-in-chief of the New Army, but he became a guest in the commander-in-chief's mansion?
There are many foreigners.
In Jincheng, there were also many foreign consuls, and the emperor and the empress also tried their best to make friends with them.
When the emperor and empress first came, they indeed caused quite a stir.
However, gradually, there were only a few "courtiers" left in Zhang Yuan, but the foreigners were not so enthusiastic.
This made the Queen, who loved socializing, dancing, and horse riding, quite disappointed.
In fact, even if he was the last emperor, he would probably be disappointed.
I thought that by coming to Jincheng and staying away from the new army, I could form an alliance with the foreigners and then rely on the foreigners to restore the country.
Unexpectedly, in less than two months, just...
With so many consuls, only Nihong maintained the enthusiasm of Emperor Cuomo.
And Princess Qingcheng next door has already begun to "visit" abroad!
At the end of the Emperor's side, a Zhengdan court meeting was held. There should have been "envoys from other countries" to congratulate them, but it turned out that they were all absent!
"Don't those foreigners have no rules? They left the emperor alone in the countryside and went to fawn over a girl!"
"What's wrong with Princess Gu Lun? She's not a princess at all. They don't have a queen in Daqing."
"...Qingcheng, even if she and Huang Zai are not flesh and blood, they are cousins. She has a good relationship with foreigners, so why doesn't she know how to help Huang Zai?"
"I really want to visit Chou Country! She is a princess, what can she visit?"
The queen was secretly annoyed while listening to the female relatives praising Princess Qingcheng.
She was even thinking, would you like to talk to the emperor and go to Chou Country with Princess Qingcheng?
No matter how noble Princess Qingcheng is, she is still just a princess.
Is the emperor's reign orthodox?
The Last Emperor: ...I also want to go, but the question is, the ugly people in my country won’t agree.
I guess even Qingcheng, that damn girl, wouldn't agree.
He has not forgotten that in the capital that month, Princess Qingcheng looked arrogant and indifferent.
You are a bastard, you don’t understand respect and inferiority!
It’s okay not to ask for a sister like that!
…
Gu Qingcheng didn't care at all about what was going on in Jincheng and what the emperor and empress thought.
Those who are willing to immerse themselves in the dream of the dynasty cannot extricate themselves, let them do whatever they want.
Gu Qingcheng decided not to pursue the plan to go further east.
The Xishan Military Camp has been transferred to Donglai. With the generous treatment, Gu Qingcheng not only has three hundred princess guards, but also two to three hundred people.
Her command already has a regular regiment of troops!
She selected sixty people from them to escort her to Chou Country.
Well, then she has an agreement with Mr. Durang.
With the endorsement of the Dulang family, Gu Qingcheng can bring his own guards and be fully armed to enter the territory of Chou Country.
The more than 500 people who were left in the east were arranged by Baoqin Qingcheng to go to the outskirts of Beijing.
The location is great, Chinatown!
Ahem, Gu Qingcheng has not forgotten her ancestral grave.
If you are not in a hurry to move your legs now, why not send the troops over for "practice" first?
Suppressing a bandit is a training exercise.
It was clear that Gu Qingcheng would not separate the territory, but she wanted to control that area within her own legs.
Although there are hundreds of people, there are foreigners and the Marshal's family behind her.
The arrogant young lady An Qi has completely become her good sister.
Even if Gu Qingcheng is not here, An Qi will help her take care of her "home"!
Just wait for Gu Qingcheng to come back from Chou Country, wait for her to find the best excuse, and then she can do it!
…
Woo~~
A huge ship made a low roar, and Gu Qingcheng boarded it with her jade bracelet and sixty guards.
Another palace maid, Yuping Baoqin Qingcheng, stayed in Donglai and handled the affairs of the princess palace and the military camp together with Zixuan Gege, who had just received Donglai's command.
"Princess, we really want to go to Chou Country!"
Standing on the deck, looking at the vast sea and the unknown future, the jade bracelet, which had never left the capital, felt somewhat panicked.
She followed Gu Qingcheng closely and said in a low voice, "Is the Dulang family reliable?"
"Princess, will they deceive you?"
Gu Qingcheng curled her lips and said softly, "If you can't trust me, please trust me!"
In this world, how can anyone be 100% reliable?
Even Bill didn't believe her completely.
As for the Dulang family behind him, should they follow the idea of "three poles if there are dates but no dates"?
Gu Qingcheng's prescription was coveted by the Dulang family, but it wasn't to the point where she had to take it.
That trip to Chou Country may not go smoothly.
But, Gu Qingcheng was afraid.
She has too many trump cards.
Just ask, and she will find a way to achieve her goal!
During the journey, the cruise ship was there, and Gu Qingcheng was not idle either.
She brought many books borrowed from Shuimu and the University Hall, most of which were related to mechanics, engineering and other majors.
Yuchuan:...I can’t understand it! I can’t understand it at all!
Ordinary people can't read such highly professional books.
Not to mention, there are some original documents.
The twists and turns of the tadpole text make me dizzy just by looking at the jade bracelet.
But my own princess actually enjoyed watching it.
After reading a lot, she was very good at taking out red paper and making gestures on it.
Bill, who followed him back to China, was a little surprised to see such a beautiful princess.
He felt more and more that Master Wei Yuan was very mysterious.
It’s just that he is proficient in multiple languages, and he is very sociable.
Tsk tsk, that Miss An Qi from the Marshal's Mansion looks like she's showing off her teeth and claws, but in fact she has long since become a "believer" of Princess Qingcheng.
Rumor has it that Princess Qingcheng is stuck in a very boring profession such as mechanical manufacturing.
Well, if his information is correct, Princess Qingcheng has not received a systematic Western education.
She didn't even go to school.
At most, Princess Qingcheng listened in when the Emperor Bidong was in class.
Could it be that Princess Qingcheng is a genius and can she be self-taught?
Bill was extremely curious.
And as a humble, casual and ugly Chinese person, when he has questions, he will express them.
He began to discuss some purely scientific things with Gu Qingcheng.
To Bill's surprise, Princess Qingcheng actually "understood".
That would be amazing.
What’s even more amazing is behind——
"I heard that the Durang family has its own aircraft manufacturing company?"
Gu Qingcheng is more direct than Bill.
She didn't test it or go roundabout way, but went straight to the point, "If it's convenient, he would like to visit your company."
Bill:……
Aircraft manufacturing?
Regardless of whether it is kept secret or not, Princess Qingcheng is a princess. If she is really curious about the wrong plane, he can take her to fly the plane.
But, an aircraft manufacturing company?
Is there a place to build airplanes?
Princess Qingcheng is a layman who can’t even understand it even if she goes there!
Gu Qingcheng: ...I have the final say whether you understand or not!
Facing Bill, there was almost a question written on his face. Gu Qingcheng curled her lips and said, "Mr. Du Lang, you may not know something."
"In their dynasty, the royal family has always been a magical existence."
"There was a dynasty before Daqing. There was an emperor in that dynasty, and he liked to do carpentry very much!"
"In an earlier dynasty, there was an emperor who was good at calligraphy..."
In short, there are quite a few foolish emperors in the history of the Chinese dynasty who were "excellent in other professions except the emperor."
Bill: "So?"
"He is not from the royal family, and is the only princess of Daqing."
"He just likes to study mechanical manufacturing."
The words "I coax him" were written in Bill's green eyes.
That being said, why does he not believe it so much?
"Whether what he said is true or not, we will find out if we go to the manufacturing workshop and try it!"
Gu Qingcheng was full of confidence.
Bill was a little convinced when he saw her bright and flamboyant appearance.
Otherwise, wait a month for the cruise ship to arrive in Chou Country.
Bill did not take Gu Qingcheng to inspect the pharmaceutical factory, but went straight to the aircraft manufacturing company owned by the Dulang family.
Gu Qingcheng didn't hide her clumsiness at all.
When I came to the workshop, I picked up a component with my legs and just touched it with my legs to judge whether it was qualified or not.
Huoshui continued to pick his nose:...Are you kidding!
Can Tianhou Bidong have a ninth-level fitter, a ninth-level welder, a ninth-level lathe... and other experts with a series of god-level skills?
In the field of machinery manufacturing, she is the supreme god!
PS: Well, the Queen of Heaven, Bidong, started to kill everyone, (#^.^#)
