"Okay! New Year's Eve in a few days, Ruixue Zhaofeng New Year..."
Concubine Longzi slowly stepped out of the door of Shangshufang, looking at
the half-white palace, and reaching out to receive a few falling snowflakes,
two eunuchs hurriedly carried the heater forward, and a palace lady was
carrying a fur collar coat. , Draped on her.
"What kind of clothes is this, why is it so... bloated? But so light..."
Concubine Longzi looked down in surprise. It was a bright yellow dragon robe
coat, with a large fiery red collar that looked festive and western. Two five-
clawed white dragons were attached to her chest. Not only did she have two
strange oblique pockets. There are also two deep pockets inside.
"If you go back to your Highness, this is the down jacket that Huaiyang weaves
as a tribute..."
The maid said with some envy: "The down jackets are all made of soft white
goose down. The interior is divided into hundreds of small squares. It is not
only light and breathable, but also warmth is several times that of cotton
clothes. Don't be afraid, your fur collar is still the fur of Firefox!"
"It turns out that this is a down jacket. It is said that it is very popular
in the market, right..."
Concubine Long Zi went back subconsciously, and the lady of the court followed
up with a smile: "The down jacket is expensive. A good one costs more than a
hundred taels of silver, and an ordinary one costs tens of taels. Qi Gui
concubine begs the little princess to buy one. , But she's envious of her
mother, now it's hard to buy money if you have money!"
"Why can Yongning buy it? Where can she be able to..."
Concubine Long Zi walked to the screen and opened her arms. The maidservants
quickly helped her change her clothes. The next maid said: "The third lady of
Qiu Ji is working under King Zhao. I sent six pieces to the palace, and the
little princess wore three pieces by himself, and changed them every day!"
"Huh~ Qiu Ji gave me a few tributes..."
Concubine Longzi's eyes suddenly sharpened, and the maid said in a panic: "Two
or two! But yours is the best dragon suit. The little princess's are folk
goods. Qiu Ji also gave a few pairs of wool and snow. Boots, do you want to
give it a try?"
"Get it!"
Concubine Longzi only wore a small coat and put on a down jacket. The long
down jacket covered her knees, and she soon felt warm. After she put on a pair
of thick-heeled snow boots, she suddenly felt the whole person again. High
legs and long.
"Not bad! It's really warm and light, and this pocket is also very
convenient..."
Concubine Long Zi walked to the floor mirror and said with a smile: "It seems
that what Zhao Wang said is correct. The times are changing. We all have to
introduce new ones. You go to Ming Qiu Ji and send a few more regular uniforms
into the palace. Let them work hard. Huaiyang weaving has gone to the next
level!"
"Yes!"
The lady of the palace ran out with joy, she must have collected a lot of
benefits, and Concubine Long Zi did not take a sedan chair when she went out,
only let the lady of the palace hold an umbrella, stepping on the snow all the
way to the front palace, and where there was a lot of snow Where she stepped
on, she finally revealed her girlish side.
"Oh~ this down jacket is too hot, this king is sweating..."
Concubine Long Zi depressed unbuttoned a copper buckle. Her top down jacket is
a tribute. The materials and workmanship are absolutely top-notch. The
Canadian geese on the earth do not necessarily have enough materials. She went
to the cabinet to discuss matters. I was already sweating everywhere.
"I don't want anyone to grab things from Lao Tzu..."
"Why give it to you, Lao Tzu's silver is not silver..."
"Why do you want to fly a cannon to fight a bandit? You ** want to attack
the city..."
A loud scream came from the courtyard, and Concubine Longzi walked in in
surprise. There was a group of generals arguing in the room. Everyone slapped
the table and smashed the bench. The cabinet ministers leisurely drank tea by
the side. It's commonplace.
"What is the noise? When is this place..."
Concubine Longzi opened the curtains domineeringly. Who knows that the
generals are in a furry army cloak, and the awe-inspiring armor and official
robes are gone. They all wear long riding boots and leather armed belts. It
was a dark green German military uniform with short haircut and a big brimmed
hat.
"His Royal Highness!" The ministers hurriedly bowed and saluted, and when
Concubine Long Zi walked to the main seat and sat down, a general stepped
forward and said anxiously: "Long Lord! You give us a comment, there are not
many flying cannons, they Squatting in the country actually want it too, this
is not a blind man’s crotch pulling an erhu... bullshit!"
"Bastard! Dare to talk nonsense in front of the temple..."
Shangshu of the Ministry of War yelled abruptly, but Long Zifei raised her
hand and smiled: "It's okay! A few of them hang out with Zhao Wang and slurp
with him, but where do you get your money to buy flying cannons? It's not
Tiantian. Are you arguing that you can't open the pot?"
"As long as the mind does not slip, there are more solutions than
difficulties..."
The other party said solemnly: "A bandit has risen in the southwestern
mountains. It is known as the King of Heaven. The mountain is complicated and
inconvenient to use. The ministers asked the rich gentry to raise a batch of
silver talons, and wanted to buy a hundred flying cannons and bomb his mother.
The bottom is up to the sky, after the banditry is suppressed, I will return
it to them!"
"Oh, hello~ it sounds so nice, are you bandit soldiers..."
A general mocked: "You are what Zhao Wangye said, the waist of the boss, the
tears of the prostitute, the manuscripts of the civil servants, and the swords
of Xiangyong, but for the bandits of hundreds of people, you use a hundred
flying cannons to go. Boom, I think you want to open a mountain by the way and
become a mine boss, right?"
"Is there a mine in Xiling?"
Concubine Long Zi caught the key point in one fell swoop, and the other party
immediately said, "Long Ye! That group of bandits discovered the open-pit
copper mine and summoned the villagers to mine it privately. The officials of
Xiling Road didn't want to buy guns, they just wanted to use them. It’s a lot
easier to explode the mountain with the Feitian Cannon’s drug pack than to
mine it by manpower!"
"Blow up the mountain?"
Concubine Long Zi wondered: "Does the Ministry of Industry have a gunpowder
workshop? It's not enough to buy a batch and explode it. Why do you have to
use Feitian Cannon to explode?"
"Long Ye! The medicine produced by the Ministry of Industry can only be used
as firecrackers, too much..."
The general despised: "The medicine for the Feitian Cannon comes from
Lanshuihe Trading Company. They have a professional mountain-breaking team.
Half of the mountain collapsed at the sound of the cannon, but this medicine
cannot be sold privately. It can only be used in conjunction with the Ministry
of Defense and the Ministry of Industry. Approval, just ask them to order!"
"His Royal Highness! The old minister will explain..."
Xia Shoufu stepped forward and smiled: "Xiling Road wants to mine, General Hu
wants to fight against the Hu barbarians, and the frontier army also wants to
adjust the artillery to consolidate the pass. They have to buy both self-
funded silver, but Lanshuihe's output is limited and it is also not the case.
It's mining, so the supply exceeds demand!"
"Bang~"
Concubine Long Zi slammed the table and said angrily: "What does the Ministry
of Industry do for food? Even your own soldiers dislike what you produce. I
think you can also play a supervisory role and simply eliminate your
workshops. Leave it to the private firm to do it!"
"His Royal Highness! The old minister has a compromise..."
Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry said quickly: “Lanshuihe’s prescriptions
are unwilling to sell, and the workshops of the Ministry of Industry are idle,
so the old minister asked to play and allow the Ministry of Industry to
jointly operate with Lanshuihe. Craftsmanship, this will not only make money,
but also greatly increase the output!"
"Are you stupid..."
Concubine Long Zi said with disdain: "You have learned all the craftsmanship
of others, and kicked people away. Whoever they look for crying, don't play
imaginary if you want to do big things. Go and sign a twenty-year agreement
with them. All of the profits go to them, and half of the output goes to the
Ministry of War for purchase and deployment, and the court will take back the
workshop 20 years later!"
"Oh~ Your Highness is a wonderful way. The old minister will go to negotiate
with them in the afternoon..."
The Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry was busy flattering, and Concubine
Long Zi took a sip from the tea bowl, and said: “Those who make big things are
win-win, don’t think about taking advantage of others all the time, yes! What
are you wearing here? Have a new uniform?"
"The Ministry of Defense doesn't have this spare silver..."
Bingbu Shangshu sat on the chair and said disdainfully: "They are all
scornful. Seeing that the new military uniforms of the Dragoons are dressed in
majestic style, they all went to the Qiuji firm to do a few things, and they
said what it was...protective color!"
"My lord! You just can't keep up with the times, aren't you just protecting
sex..."
A general said in a spirited voice: "You haven't seen the auspicious dress of
the Dragoons, and you can't find it at your feet. Our clothes are called
military green. A cat in the woods will confuse the sight, and how convenient
is it to insert the pocket. You don’t need to take off your pants if you have
a trouser button!"
"It seems that you have a high opinion of the Dragoons..."
Concubine Long Zi asked with a smile: "This king asks you, if I face the most
elite troops against the Dragoons with equal strength, who wins and who
loses?"
"Long Lord! If they charge against each other in the plains, the Yulin Army
can kill them without leaving a piece of armor..."
A general said: "If you are fighting in a mountain or city battle, the
dragoons can block ten by one, because the dragoons never train to charge, and
they exist only to ambush, protect, and block the enemy. They can only be
regarded as a guard. !"
"What do you think of the sudden game?"
Concubine Long Zi slowly glanced at them, and one of the generals arched his
hands and said: "The minister thought! Sudden battle is the best choice for
the execution of the enemy's special services. The minister went to one of
their lectures and believed that the deduction was true, but it turned out to
be true. It's a big trap, they... even lie to themselves!"
"Oh~"
Concubine Long Zi suddenly covered her mouth and rushed to the side. She
squatted beside the spittoon and retched. The officials rushed out to call the
imperial physician in fright.
When the two imperial doctors arrived with the medicine box, Princess Long Zi
had already sat back on the chair and said weakly: "Is this king catching a
cold? I have always vomited sour water these few days!"
"His Royal Highness, don't worry, Mr. Rong will check your pulse first..."
The old lady respectfully took out the small pillow and sat on the side to get
his pulse seriously, but after a while he shrank his hands in fright and
hurriedly got up to wink at his colleague. The colleague’s complexion also
changed slightly, cautiously. Go forward to check the pulse.
"What's wrong? To be honest, don't have to cover up..."
Concubine Long Zi straightened up suspiciously, and everyone in the room
watched eagerly. The middle-aged imperial doctor wiped the cold sweat on his
forehead and said in a trembling voice: "The minister, the minister is
incompetent, I think you are ...This is a joy!"
"what?"
All the generals and ministers in a room were dumbfounded. Concubine Long Zi
suddenly slapped the table angrily. The two imperial doctors knelt on the
ground at the same time, but Concubine Long Zi angrily cursed: "Damn Ao Bing,
let him not come. Don't come, just pick this time to go down, do you want to
kill me?"
"His Royal Highness! Dragon Seed..."
A room was excited again, and everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
"nonsense!"
Concubine Long Zi said depressed: "Except for the dead ghost Xiao Bailong, who
can sneak into the palace silently, how can this king let outsiders touch it?
The dead ghost dragon still told me that it's okay, you two will take a look,
right? Really happy pulse?"
"His Royal Highness! It's true..."
The old lady said excitedly: "Actually, the minister has found clues in your
recipes. You have been fond of jujubes recently. 80% of you are a dragon, and
you have been pregnant for more than a month, but... whether the dragon is a
dragon or a human? , The ministers don’t know how to serve!"
"His father said that Xiaolongren is a human form, but it is possible to grow
opposite dragon horns..."
Concubine Long Zi stood up and stroked her belly, looking at Daxue outside the
house in a sad voice: "Oh~ this dragon is here too late. My father is still
guarding the border, and my brothers are fighting hard by the sea again. This
king can't stand a big belly. Go up, right?"
"His Royal Highness! This is a happy event..."
A minister excitedly said: "This year, the Ruixue warm winter, you are
welcoming the dragon son again. God bless me Dashun, and this is a real
dragon. Who can match my Dashun in the future, the Ministry of Rites must tell
the world immediately. , Rejoice with the people!"
"Go to the Ministry of Etiquette, I have to find the dead ghost dragon to
settle the account..."
Concubine Long Zi swiftly walked out of the cabinet while clutching her belly,
but she turned into the aisle by herself, looked at the snow that kept falling
every day, and muttered to herself: "Is it because you owe me or I owe you?
Yeah, really... just hit it once!"
