Zhu Fuli took it and placed the stack of drawings in front of Yan Tinglan, "I have drawn some water wheels, tipping carts, etc. I asked craftsmen to make some and use them on my farm. They are indeed better than the existing ones."

Yan Tinglan squeezed her hand after reading it, "How could Ah Li know all this?"

"I got bored of staying in the princess's mansion, so I went to play on the farm. I found that the waterwheel was broken, so I looked for books on the subject and studied on my own. I have been studying for seven or eight years."

"Ali is very smart." Yan Tinglan found that when she talked about this, her eyes became lively and she talked more.

When Xu Liu heard what the emperor and his concubine said, he couldn't help but speak up, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, may I take a look?"

Yan Tinglan looked at the people around him.

"Look, it was originally brought for you to see."

Xu Liu took the blueprint and saw the detailed structure. He couldn't help but get excited. "Great! Great! With this crossbar, even if the water tank is deepened, the water wheel won't roll slower and the water can be filled up in a short time!"

He couldn't help but look at other drawings, and was very excited after reading them.

"Your Majesty is so talented!" Xu Liu now wished he could make one right away to see the effect.

"It's already built in my farm in Yi County outside the imperial city. Everything is drawn on the blueprint. Lord Xu can go and take a look."

"Your Majesty..." Xu Liu looked at Yan Tinglan after hearing that.

"Go ahead, and remember, this is the credit of your future queen."

"Yes, I will tell other colleagues." Xu Liu responded and went out excitedly.

"Ali really surprised me." He hugged her in his arms and kissed her.

"What's so surprising about this? There are many things that men can do, women can do too. It's just that most of them are trapped in small backyards, and have to learn things like female rules, female disciplines, female virtues and female appearance from a young age, which buries their talents." She said in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty, for thousands of years, all dynasties have been taming women, teaching them to obey their fathers at home, obey their husbands after marriage, and obey their sons after their husbands die. They have nowhere to display their talents."

"Ali, have you forgotten? Don't call me the emperor." Yan Tinglan grabbed her hand and interlocked their fingers. "Ali, do you feel bored in the harem?"

In the previous life, he taught her medical skills, and she was very smart and learned very well, no worse than Ziling.

She went out with him for free medical consultations, and he watched her take the pulse and prescribe medicine for the patients. Later, she was able to do this on her own.

"It's not as interesting as the time in the Princess's Mansion before I entered the palace."

"Ali, do you want to open a school? We should open a girls' school, not only teaching music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also teaching the six arts of a gentleman, poetry and policy essays, which are the same as men's."

"Although we cannot immediately change the current situation where many intelligent women cannot realize their ambitions, but over time, we can gradually change the world's view of women. Women can also stand in the court, speak for the people, and defend the borders on the battlefield. There will be a place for women."

"Are you serious?" Zhu Fuli glanced at him.

"I couldn't be more serious. I also think that women should not only stay at home and raise children. They are also brave and resourceful."

"You are different from most men I know."

"Ali is also special. So, Ali, do you want to open a school?"

"want."

"The process will be difficult and there will be a lot of criticism. Are you ready, Ali?"

"Well, although it is long, I am not lost. Although it is slow, I will go. If I move the earth with baskets and boxes today, and it causes the earth to shake in the future, I will go even if I die."

"Ali is brave, just go for it, I'm behind you."

Zhu Fuli looked at him, and at that moment she felt that something was different in her heart.

"What are you looking at me for?" He kissed the corner of her lips and asked with a smile.

"You are more suitable to be the emperor than him."

"Really? Then I'll take it as a compliment from Ali."

"Your Majesty, the officials from the Ministry of Revenue have arrived." Zhang Yuanlu knocked on the door and shouted from outside.
