Chapter 153 The bicycle was taken apart and couldn't be put back together.

For the three days of the exam, Ji Yingying stayed in the exam hall. During those three days, she was very well-behaved. She ate whatever was brought to her, slept after eating, and took out her storybook to read after waking up.

Occasionally, he would take two officers on a walk to make sure there were no safety concerns.

As soon as she returned to her post, whenever Minister Lu was around, she would sigh and say, "Ah! I've really been very dutiful; I even patrolled in this freezing weather!"

Then, Minister Lu, suppressing the urge to curse, said, "Yes, Lord Ji, you've worked hard. You must report this to the Emperor later so that he knows you've done a good job."

Even the emperor, far away in the palace, couldn't help but twitch his lips. This blatant desire for something was truly shameless.

On the third day, after collecting the exam papers, Ji Yingying left without a second thought. Even though her own brother was still there, she didn't even glance at him before leaving in her carriage.

When they got home, they found out that no one had come to pick up Ji Jiaming. Fang Yulan said, "Aren't you there? You can just pick him up on your way."

"Mom, I'm too tired. Why don't you use your maternal love to go pick up my brother?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Jiaming returned.

"No need to pick me up, Minister Lu brought me back." Ji Jiaming wanted to poke Ji Yingying's head. He had been chasing after her, calling out to her to give him a ride, but the girl seemed not to hear him at all.

The carriage was moving very fast, but fortunately, Minister Lu had someone bring him back.

Otherwise, he would have had to walk back.

"Big brother, don't be angry, it's okay. You're a man, I'll definitely pick you up next time."

Ji Jiaming snorted, too lazy to pay him any attention. He was exhausted after these three days and just wanted to go back and catch up on his sleep.

During the exam, he saw her eat and sleep, and then eat again after waking up; she seemed to be having a very happy time.

You've already forgotten about him!

"Mother, go see him." Fang Yulan asked Granny Xia to take Ji Yingying back to her room, while she went to see Ji Jiaming.

Ji Yingying ignored him; her brother wasn't a petty person.

She went back to her room and fell asleep immediately. When she woke up, the imperial physician had arrived, and Ji Yingying was sitting beside her.

What are you doing?

“You’ve been sleeping for a whole day and night. Mother was so worried. She told me to call the imperial physician. I told her you were just tired, but she didn’t believe me.”

"Mother, I'm fine. My little sister's medical skills are unmatched even by the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital."

The imperial physician immediately replied, "Yes, we still need to rely on Your Highness's medical skills!"

Fang Yulan didn't sleep much. She had someone send the imperial physician out, and then she went to arrange for someone to make chicken soup to nourish them.

The imperial examination is over, and the Ministry of Rites is busy reviewing the papers, so Ji Yingying is no longer needed.

She went to court early in the morning, and surprisingly, the ministers became much more enthusiastic after not having attended court for three days.

Before the morning court session even began, Minister Gong pulled Ji Yingying aside and said, "When do you have some free time to go and see the bicycle we're researching?"

"It's finished?"

Ji Yingying was a little surprised; she thought it would take a month.

"No, no, it's just..."

"Just what?"

They took the bicycle apart and couldn't put it back together.

Ji Yingying: ...I want to curse. Her 50,000 taels are gone.

"I have to pay, I have to pay, my fifty thousand taels..." Ji Yingying couldn't help but glare at him, but then Minister Gong pulled out her father.

【Hehe…】Ji Yingying laughed sarcastically, deciding not to pay them any more attention.

Dismantle her bicycle, please...

After the Emperor arrived, he spoke to Ji Yingying again, directly telling her to send the bicycle to the Ministry of Works for research, and then have the Ministry of Works give her tens of thousands of taels as compensation.

Needless to say, the emperor was scolded again, and even more severely, but he calmly accepted it.

"Your Majesty, the sweet potatoes have now been installed in the greenhouse. I would like to ask Lord Ji to go to the Imperial Estate to take a look."

The greenhouse technology has already been given to them, but she doesn't know what the greenhouse is made of or how to operate it.

But, in this cold weather, and it's expected to snow in the next couple of days, he actually wants her to run off to the estate... She really wanted to curse him.

So they're afraid to call her out privately, and are trying to find someone else to take the blame, right?

The entire morning court session consisted of Ji Yingying's cursing, with not a single piece of gossip. Her resentment was comparable to that of a vengeful ghost who had lost his entire family and could not seek revenge, and her resentment was rampant.

Moreover, she said she cursed him secretly.

If your boss doesn't yell at you, then you're not a working person!

The grievances of the working class must be taken by the leaders, because who told you to be the biggest leader in the world?

After the morning court session ended, the emperor couldn't help but sigh, "This little girl is becoming more and more unruly when she scolds me; she says all sorts of things."

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. In His Highness's words, it's just the grievances of a working person. It's good to vent. Besides, His Highness is quite patriotic and loves his people. He always considers Your Majesty's feelings."

That's true. News of the students kneeling and worshipping the other day came in. These were all requested by Ji Yingying, but she didn't want any of them and let him take them all!

For better or worse, she's just too capable, and she's also a lucky star of the Tianyou Dynasty. Oh well, as long as the country is peaceful and prosperous, he'll tolerate it!

Can you please stop digging into his sex life? Now he's too afraid to even go to the harem.

In the past, when it got cold, there would be a concubine to warm him up, but now, he dares not do that anymore.

…………

As soon as Ji Yingying came out, Minister Gong pulled her back to the Ministry of Works, where many people were studying bicycles.

"Stop researching, I don't even know what to do with this tire."

She had a vague idea of ​​what kind of glue it was and how to use it, but she had never actually seen how to use it before.

Nobody knew they would time travel!

If she had known she could time travel in her past life, she would have at least learned all those techniques.

"Then what should we do?"

"Anyway, I'm staying here. You can study it yourselves. I'm going back now. Oh... don't forget the money. If you don't give it to me, I'll go and make a scene with the Emperor."

"Yes, I will. I'll give it to you once I've applied to the Ministry of Revenue. The carriage is ready, so let's go and come back as soon as possible."

Ji Yingying immediately felt that she had been tricked. What kind of people were these?

They actually wanted to go to the village at this time.

It's fine if we don't go, to avoid going on a snowy day.

They got into the carriage, which was stocked with plenty of food. With food on the table, Ji Yingying's resentment lessened.

Minister Gong also breathed a sigh of relief. It was clearly his subordinate, the Left Vice Minister, but in the end, he had to act like a grandson.

Upon arriving at the village, Ji Yingying saw the greenhouse, which was made of hemp cloth, working on the same principle as an umbrella to protect against rain and wind. It was constructed with pillars and bamboo, making it look just like a house, complete with windows.

The sweet potato leaves inside are growing quite well.

It's so cold, I don't know if it will bear fruit, but the leaves are growing quite well.

"Let's eat the leaves for now. Since we planted them late, they probably won't bear fruit. We can plant more in the next three months, and we can also distribute some to the villagers in the surrounding villages so they can plant together."

Ji Yingying has already started digging up a sweet potato. She wants to see if it has grown. If it hasn't grown, she will really eat the leaves. However, sweet potato leaves probably won't taste good this season.
