Chapter 157 Death

It was the first time that Jun Qiulan saw Jun Baisong so fierce.

He quickly hugged Jun Baisong and coaxed him for a long time.

Jun Baisong kept meowing, as if he was accusing something, but it also sounded like he was cursing in a very dirty way.

Yan Jing was laughing so hard beside him.

"Why don't you try it?"

"Just give it a try."

Then try and die.

Jun Bai slapped Yan Jinghu.

This time it was Jun Qiulan who laughed at Yan Jing.

In any case, he hadn't been beaten yet, but Yan Jing had been beaten.

Yan Jing also smiled helplessly.

But fortunately, Jun Baisong is a very good cat, and he didn't extend his sharp claws when hitting people with his hands.

All you can feel is the soft pad of flesh.

The two of them held Jun Baisong and coaxed him for a long time, giving him cans and cat strips, and finally Jun Baisong was coaxed.

"Don't worry, you will always be Daddy's favorite little kitty."

Jun Baisong: "Meow meow~"

Yan Jing watched with great joy.

After comforting Jun Baisong, Jun Qiulan took Yan Jing to discuss the steam engine with his father.

Junyu's boys' school is technology-oriented, and road traffic is also managed by Junyu.

This is perfect. Researching steam engines requires technical talents. After the steam engine is developed, the next step is to research steam locomotives, which is the responsibility of transportation roads.

It just so happened that this matter was handed over to my father.

Jun Yu: "It just so happens that our boys' school and the traffic road are currently idle."

The students in boys' schools are almost all recruited from the lowest classes of the people. Now they have nothing else to do except learning knowledge and skills.

Boys' schools do business just like girls' schools, but they are not as popular as girls' schools.

The students are still anxious.

Jun Yu said, "It will probably take some time to research the steam engine, but now we can study the technology of iron smelting."

Jun Qiulan nodded, and he believed that one should take one step at a time and not take too big a step.

He took out the treatment plan he and Yan Jing had compiled together.

"Information on iron smelting, steam engines, and steam locomotives, especially steam engines. The development of steam engines has many applications in industry."

For example, weaving.

In the future, using steam engines in weaving can also save some manpower.

It can even be used in agricultural machinery, so that people can save more effort in farming in the future.

Food is the most important thing for people. Now most of their tax revenue still depends on agricultural taxes.

no way.

If people want to have enough food to eat, farming is inevitable.

Although it is hard work, they are indeed an agricultural country now, and it will take some time for them to progress into an industrial country.

The father and son discussed the steam engine for a long time. Yan Jing, as usual, accompanied them quietly, occasionally speaking up to help with suggestions or pointing out the differences between them.

By the end of the conversation, Jun Yu had a clear idea in his mind.

Turning around, he looked at Yan Jing again, "Did you say before that your parents were coming over?"

Yan Jing nodded. "Since Ji Bai and I love each other and have firmly chosen each other, we will definitely continue to be together in the future. My grandparents and parents just want me to pay a formal visit to my uncle and aunt."

How could Jun Qiulan be embarrassed? Why did he act like a little girl?

He said, "Dad, we also have to prepare a generous gift and visit Grandpa Yan in a few days. The old man always wants to sit down with you, drink a cup of tea, and play a game of chess."

Jun Yu naturally understood what his son meant.

Of course we can't lose.

"Don't worry, Dad has made preparations."

Yan Jing couldn't help laughing when he saw the witty banter between the father and son.

They were both men, and there was no talk of marriage. They were just two young people in love walking together.

Finally, Jun Yu said, "Where are the programs you recorded recently? Your mother is still talking about them. Download them for us someday so we can watch them."

In the evening, the couple can also kill some time.

Jun Qiulan said with a smile: "Okay, I'll download it for you some other day, and download some other TV series and movies for Mom and Dad."

Jun Yu even made a request, "Please download more of those period dramas."

At their current stage, no matter how hard they try, they cannot catch up with the other world.

However, we can learn from the various policies and regulations of the 1970s and 1980s, and at the same time, work hard to develop in this direction.

Jun Qiulan naturally agreed.

Yan Jing also said: "We can initially draw up several plans, a three-year plan, a five-year plan, a ten-year plan, and in the end we can make the world a better place."

Jun Yu sighed, "Our rear is relatively stable now, and the people are gradually living and working in peace and contentment, but the situation on the front line is still very critical."

"Dad, don't worry. After a few days, when things here are settled, I will go to the front lines and supervise you personally."

"Good." Jun Yu clapped his hands and praised.

Although he knew that the battlefield was very dangerous, in this situation, if his son didn't even go to the front line, how could the soldiers and the people be completely convinced and willingly follow him?

After the discussion was over, the two returned to modern times to rest.

Still in the cat park.

Jun Qiulan thought of Jun Baisong's angry look and didn't dare to pet the cat anymore.

Yan Jing was overjoyed. "Even if you don't play with cats, you'll definitely be stained with the smell of their cats if you stay here for two days. Don't go back to see Jun Baisong for the next two days. When you get home, take a good shower and change your clothes."

After saying this, Jun Qiulan pounced on the kittens who were crying for petting with a sense of guilt.

The next day was another recording session.

Jun Qiulan is now very much in her element in this show. She can pick up on the gags, has talent and beauty, and has become the wise man in their regular team.

The program recording went smoothly.

Because he still smelled so strongly of cat, Jun Qiulan didn't go back to ancient times.

After all, things over there have been mostly explained, and he doesn't have to go back and show up every day.

Everyone is now doing their job and everything is developing smoothly.

So, with a bit of guilt, Jun Qiulan followed Yan Jing to the cat park to pet the cats for two days, hanging out with them for two days before returning to Fengcheng.

It just so happened that the medical equipment that Yan Jing had ordered for Wan'er had arrived.

It’s still the previous warehouse.

suburbs.

Yan Jing said, "After your uncle's supermarket opens, build a separate compartment in the warehouse. Then we won't have to go to the outskirts of the city."

The warehouse of a large-scale storage supermarket is not ordinary. Even if a separate part is separated out, it should be much larger than this rented warehouse.

There are so many goods coming in and out of the supermarket warehouse, but it doesn't attract other people's attention.

It is also convenient, and you don’t have to run to the suburbs every time.

Even if there are things that are not suitable for public display, they can be sent directly to grandpa.

That piece of land was bought by my grandfather.

The Fengcheng Film and Television Base was also funded and built by my grandfather. He bought a piece of land and built a courtyard house himself. The surrounding area was left vacant, and the government departments were still willing to provide convenience.

After all, if the Fengcheng Film and Television Base had not been built and put into use, the local area would have long been a poor small city.

The whole city has a brand new look, and countless people who once went to work elsewhere have now returned one after another.

Who would be willing to travel every year when you can make money right at home?

Yan Jing said, "Anyway, we try to control their reliance on supplies here. Most of the things can be delivered to the supermarket, and the few that are not suitable can be sent directly to Grandpa."

My grandfather came here to seek the truth. He originally wanted to stay for a few months, but now he is planning to stay for a long time.

Jun Qiulan agreed.

The two of them worked together to move all the medical facilities and equipment that Jun Shuwan wanted back to ancient times.

Then he went home and picked up Jun Shuwan.

Jun Shuwan basically only comes back once a week. She has a heavy workload, and her brother doesn't come home early every day, so it's troublesome to go back and forth.

This time when I came back, in addition to continuing to study medical books and teaching materials with Qian Miaoer and others, I also wanted to teach everyone how to use these medical equipment.

Surprisingly, there was no one at home.

It's already evening, why haven't you come back yet?

Jun Qiulan took out his walkie-talkie and called his father.

Soon, Jun Yu responded, "We are still at the city government."

The city government was formerly the prefectural government office.

Jun Qiulan: "Did something happen?"

Jun Yu: "Do you have time? If it's convenient, please come over."

Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing looked at each other, and without even having time to change their clothes, they just hitched their ox carts and set off.

The cow at home is the calf that Grandpa Yan gave us before.

Now it has become a very strong bull.

Most of the time they travel by donkey cart, but this time they are in a hurry, so they don’t care about that.

Jun Shuwan also wants to go with them.

The three of them didn't talk much on the way to the city government.

Almost all the internal personnel in the border town were present, and everyone looked solemn.

"You've come here for nothing." Su Changxun asked him to sit down.

Jun Qiulan readily agreed: "Did something happen on the front line?"

Su Changxun shook his head and sighed, "Things are getting a bit complicated. Today we received news that the emperor has passed away. He suddenly vomited blood during the morning court session and then died."

Jun Qiulan was stunned for a moment, his mind was confused.

It has only been a few months since I left the capital.

Immediately, he felt relieved again.

The emperor had been taking poisonous pills. He knew in his heart that the pills were poisonous, but his body had been too weak for too long, and he was greedy for the moment of mental strength after taking the pills.

In addition, they killed the national teacher before they left, so perhaps there was no one to continue to make pills for him.

No, that's not the case.

If you take too many pills, sudden death is inevitable.

Jun Qiulan recovered and sighed. This man whom he had called father for eighteen years was a mixture of cleverness and confusion in this life.

Or maybe he was sober, but willing to be confused.

Su Changxun continued, "It will probably take several days for the news of the emperor's death to reach the border town."

Even if it is an expedited delivery of 800 miles, it will still take four or five days.

Jun Qiulan came back to his senses. "Which prince is now on the throne? Has there been any news?"

"It's the eldest prince." Su Changxun said, "The queen, no, it was the current queen dowager who helped him to the throne."

The empress and the emperor were a young couple. The emperor had been infertile, so it was impossible for the empress to have her own children. By the time the emperor was cured by the imperial teacher, the empress had reached old age and was unable to have children.

As the queen mother, even though more princes were born, the emperor did not shake her position.

But to be honest, if the next emperor has no connection with her, her life will not be easy even if she is the empress dowager.

Of course, this is the natural understanding of their class.

A meal of eighty dishes was reduced to twenty dishes, which was already a huge injustice to them.

To support a prince to ascend the throne, apart from those foreign families that are not very powerful, probably only the eldest prince is the most suitable.

The age is right, and the eldest prince's uncle, Jin Guojiu, died in the border town long ago.

If the eldest prince wants to ascend the throne, he can only rely on the power of the queen's mother's family.

Su Changxun said, "As soon as the emperor passed away, the empress quickly supported the eldest prince to ascend the throne."

He died in the morning and ascended the throne in the afternoon.

It seems like he can't wait at all.

Not to mention the court, even when they received the news from the telegraph, their first reaction was that there were signs that the eldest prince was about to ascend the throne.

There was another incident in the middle. Concubine Jin, the mother of the eldest prince, directly adopted the eldest prince to the queen, making him the legitimate son.

It seems natural that the legitimate son ascends the throne.

But at this time, someone took out the secret decree, which was a decree of succession. The old emperor specified that the seventh prince would succeed to the throne.

The seventh prince is the sickly child.

Jun Qiulan was not surprised. "The imperial edict I received allowed me to ascend the throne and adopt the Seventh Prince as my son. I will pass the throne to the Seventh Prince in the future."

The emperor still has his heart set on the seventh prince.

Now that he is rebelling, the emperor should pass the throne directly to the seventh prince.

But unexpectedly, it was intercepted by the Queen and the eldest prince.

Now the court will be in chaos for a while.

Su Changxun: "Should we also pursue the victory?"

The internal chaos in Dasheng was just the right time for them to raise their banners.

Now, no matter which prince succeeds to the throne, there will inevitably be chaos in the court.

Even if Jun Qiulan brought Huo Lan to the capital now and made the imperial edict public, a fight would be inevitable.

What's more, there are also troops led by the prince's relatives.

The Queen was able to do this because her family also had a hereditary title of Duke, and her own nephew was still guarding the southern border.

Jun Qiulan waved his hand and said, "Starting tomorrow, print the imperial edict given to me by the emperor and distribute it throughout the country."

Since the water in the pond is already muddy, let's make it even more muddy.

He made the imperial edict public in order to confuse the officials in the court.

Secondly, they are still at war, and if there is an imperial edict, some officials will definitely give way voluntarily.

This is also reality.

If officials could take the initiative to open the city gates, war would be avoided.

The people will also suffer less.

Although their military discipline is strict, the army of Dasheng does not have such strict discipline.

When there is war, the people will still suffer.

Su Changxun clapped his hands and cheered, "That's how it should be."

Sometimes, fighting a war does not necessarily require real guns and swords, but also requires brains.

As long as there are officials who can voluntarily recognize their regime and acknowledge this imperial edict, they can march to the capital under the pretext of clearing the court of corrupt officials.

Duan Wen pondered for a moment, "Then should our New China be announced later?"

Store up food and slowly become king.

But since they had already fought with the imperial court, they had to raise their own flag.

Now the situation is different.

If they wanted to enter the capital under the pretext of clearing out the evil officials, wouldn't it be unreasonable for them to hold high the flag of the new country?

Jun Qiulan: "We have an imperial decree. The emperor has passed the throne to me. This is not fake. Moreover, we have the Seventh Prince as our spearhead."

Whether it was his imperial edict or the secret decree from the cabinet, the emperor favored the seventh prince.

They just use the title of the Seventh Prince.

Moreover, before Jun Qiulan left Beijing, he was personally conferred the title of Prince Rui by the emperor.

Yan Jing: "Then let's do it later."

Changing dynasties can also be done directly after winning a battle.

Now, the focus is still on people’s livelihood.

He said, "Let's make a copy of the imperial edict and send it out tomorrow."

Jun Qiulan thought for a moment and said, "Take it over there and have it copied. I want it printed in color."

Yan Jing naturally agreed and said, "Please also copy and distribute our livelihood policies."

The front side is printed with imperial edicts, and the back side is printed with people's livelihood policies and their heroic deeds.

So that all the people in the world can see it.

Yan Su: "We have decided to publish the New China Newspaper, and the layout has been completed."

Yan Jing: "Just give them to me later."

Modern photocopiers are much more efficient than ancient woodblock printing and movable type printing.

After discussing this matter, everyone gathered together to discuss the follow-up.

No time wasted.

Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing went straight back to the modern era.

In order to print the information they found, they prepared a printer at home.

But how can one be enough?

Yan Jing scanned a copy and sent it to Tang Te.

Let Tangte find a way to print more.

Jun Qiulan: "Then Tang Te will know, right?"

Maybe outsiders can see it?

Yan Jing couldn't help laughing: "Don't forget, I'm a director. If I publish these things, outsiders will think they are needed for the movie. Besides, Tang Te, don't forget, he is my sister-in-law's cousin."

Teacher Tang Qing, who previously taught Jun Qiulan how to dance, is Tang Te's cousin.

My sister-in-law had known about my grandfather's origins for a long time, so naturally she also knew about Jun Qiulan's origins.

Although it is kept secret, it is difficult to hide it from those close to you.

Especially Tang Te, who was Yan Jing's assistant and had helped them with many things. Did you really think Tang Te couldn't see it?

It’s just that they offer high salaries and have signed a confidentiality agreement before, so who would be tempted to stab them at a time like this?

In addition to Tangte, he also did not let his grandfather go.

In one night, almost all the printing shops in Fengcheng were busy. Their ability to make money was so amazing.

The printer is swishing.

Extremely efficient.

Apart from themselves, everyone else really thinks it is for the needs of movies or TV series.

This is a film and television base, so nothing seems strange here.

The next morning, Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing appeared with tens of thousands of color-printed imperial edicts and newspapers reporting on various heroic deeds.

The paper used is waterproof so that it won’t be ruined by water.

Su Changxun: "Arrange the best horses and people to go to the farthest and most remote provincial capital first."

Tens of thousands of copies may seem like a lot, but in fact they are not enough to be sent nationwide, and they will definitely continue to be photocopied.

Sending it to the farthest place first is also to avoid alerting the enemy.

If they start sending messages from nearby places, after a while, those farther away will know about it, and it will be difficult for their messengers to bring things into those cities again.

From far to near, before anyone could react, this information spread across the country.

Jun Qiulan also said: "No need to pay, just arrange some people to go to the place where the trouble is, and throw the garbage around, or stuff it into the cracks of the doors of those wealthy families."

For safety reasons, I delivered the item and ran away, changed my appearance, and left the city.

Just send two or three people to each city.

When there are more people, it is easier to attract attention.

The matter was arranged on the same day.

At this time, Yan Jing's parents also brought generous gifts and followed Yan Jing and Jun Qiulan to the ancient times.

It was really a generous gift, eighty-eight full loads, and all of them were packed in wooden boxes with red silk tied on them.

Jun Qiulan muttered softly, "Why does it feel like you're coming to propose marriage?"

Yan Jing did not deny it: "I propose to you first, and then you propose to me, there is no problem with that, right?"

No matter what Jun Qiulan thought, Jun Yu, Song Xirong, and Jun Qiulan's grandparents were quite satisfied with the Yan family's attitude.

Even though it is a contract between two men, it should be formal.

All proper etiquette and courtesy must be maintained.

With the pen pals Grandpa Yan and Jun Yu mediating between them, the overall meeting between the two families seemed very harmonious.

Preliminarily, the marriage between the two was settled.

Same-sex marriage has not yet been legalized in modern times, so Yan Jing's parents suggested holding the wedding in ancient times.

This made Jun Qiulan's family even more satisfied.

Hey, doesn’t this mean Yan Jing is marrying into their family?

Jun Qiulan knew what everyone was thinking and felt a little helpless.

Why do we have to fight for this?

Of course, this dispute is only potential, and everyone is generally harmonious.

However, there is no rush to hold the wedding.

Both Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing have their own things to do now.

Preparing for a wedding that spans two worlds takes time.

What's more, Jun Qiulan is still rebelling.

You can't be fighting today and then take a break tomorrow and get married first.

It would be fine for others, but as a leader, Jun Qiulan can't do this.

Therefore, Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing both agreed that it would not be too late to hold the wedding after the development here became more stable.

In ancient times, it was normal for people to prepare the three books and six ceremonies, start proposing marriage at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Nowadays, people get married late, and it is normal to date for three to five years before getting married.

So both parents are quite accepting of it.

By the time the Yan family returned, Jun Yu and Song Xirong were already preparing gifts for their visit.

I prepared a little bit in advance, but the situation was different.

They had prepared eighty-eight loads of gifts, so they couldn't be left out.

This made Jun Qiulan feel quite embarrassed.

Yan Jing was also embarrassed. In fact, the betrothal gifts his grandfather prepared for him were not valuable except for an agreement on the equity change of the Yan Group.

It just takes advantage of the convenience of high technology and looks very valuable.

Most of the things are useful in daily life.

"In that case, I'll have to put my proposal to your house on hold. I have one more show to record, and then I have to go to the front line."

This matter cannot be delayed any longer.
