Looking at the Fourth Prince's departing back, Qin Qianqian came to her senses and covered her face with her hands, giggling foolishly.
She found that Yu Hengrui seemed more charming today than before.
"Miss, why are you grinning like an idiot by yourself? Are you not going to pretend to be a gentle woman today?"
The maid walked to Qin Qianqian's side and looked in the direction she was looking, but there was nothing.
"Why are you pretending? I can't pretend to be your daughter, so I won't pretend anymore."
She actually wanted to tease the Fourth Prince, but she didn't expect him to respond with such a serious attitude, which made her feel a little guilty.
"That's good. The Fourth Prince and Miss have known each other since childhood. Let me be frank, Miss, the moment you stick your butt out, the Fourth Prince knows what you're going to do. There's really no need to pretend."
Qin Qianqian: “…”
She glanced at the maid: "What you said is quite harsh."
…
The next day, with the emperor's permission, the Fourth Prince and Mo Kang carried the two training puppets to the military camp.
Jin Ting'an had received the news early on, so he wasn't surprised to see him bring it with him.
The new recruits were curious about what the Fourth Prince had brought over, but due to military regulations they could only stand still and dared not look around.
The Fourth Prince ordered his men to set up the two training puppets. Just as he was about to say something, he looked up and saw the Emperor coming towards him with a group of ministers.
"The Emperor has arrived—"
In an instant, the soldiers in the camp fell to their knees.
"Long live the emperor."
The sound echoed throughout the entire military camp, and the recruits became excited.
Some people may not even see the emperor until they die, but they not only saw their admired General Jin, but now they have even seen the emperor.
It was worth their hard training to come to the capital. Even if they couldn't stay, they would have no regrets in this life.
The emperor walked up to the platform and stood still. "Everyone, stand up."
Compared to the doubts of the recruits, the ministers were not much better. After the morning court, they thought they would leave as usual. However, after finishing the business, the emperor said that he would take them to the military camp.
The military officers were excited, and although the civil officials were not interested, they did not dare to disobey.
Some ministers even secretly wondered whether the emperor was setting a trap for them by bringing them to the military camp.
Not everyone can come to the military camp. Now suddenly bringing everyone here, isn't this obviously a trap?
Could it be that someone has evil intentions, and the emperor is taking this opportunity to induce that person to make a mistake and then eliminate him?
If the emperor and Yu Yiluo knew what these ministers were thinking, they would definitely give a thumbs up to their imagination.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up. The emperor glanced at Eunuch Cao, who stepped forward and said loudly, "Don't be nervous, everyone. The emperor came to the military camp today to see the training puppets that Fourth Prince Mo and the little princess, General Jin, created together."
"But these two in front of us?"
Prime Minister Li looked at the two puppets placed next to the Fourth Prince, walked up and walked around them.
I don’t see anything special about it, but since it was made by Master Mo, it must not be simple.
"That's it," the emperor said, looking at Jin Ting'an with a smile. "You can demonstrate it to them and show them the special features of this puppet."
Jin Ting'an stepped forward, clasped his fists, and answered "yes." He asked everyone around him to step back, walked forward, and pressed the switch of the puppet. With a "click", the originally lifeless puppet instantly moved.
As if it were alive, it began to attack Jin Ting'an with its hands and feet. Its moves were smooth and it did not appear clumsy or slow because it was a puppet.
The new recruits and ministers below were all dumbfounded.
"Isn't this the move of the Li and Qiang nations?"
Some veterans who had been to the battlefield cried out in surprise.
No wonder it is called a training puppet, it is really a great training tool.
This saves more time than letting these recruits practice against the general. In order to make these people familiar with the moves of the two countries, the general has to practice against these recruits personally every day. The effect is good, but it is very physically demanding and time-consuming.
Now with this training puppet, the general can work less hard.
After completing a set of moves, the training puppet stopped attacking and Jin Ting'an bowed to the emperor.
"What does the Emperor think?"
The emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, the movements are smooth and the moves are skillful. I am very satisfied."
[Some things are really smooth. The fourth brother finally stood up.]
Jin Ting'an looked at the Fourth Prince and said, "This is all thanks to the Fourth Prince. When I went to Xinglin County, I saw that the Fourth Prince was also studying how to make the puppet attack without sluggishness."
He said this not to help the Fourth Prince take credit, but because he truly saw the Fourth Prince's intentions.
On the way back to Beijing from Xinglin County, the Fourth Prince discussed this with him.
As soon as these words were spoken, the ministers looked at the Fourth Prince differently.
The last time the Fourth Prince went to Xinglin County, he received a reward from the Emperor. Now he has made this magical puppet. It seems that the Fourth Prince is highly regarded by the Emperor.
It is impossible to marry the second and third princes now, but maybe I can let my daughter try to marry the fourth prince.
Although they had heard that the Fourth Prince and the daughter of the Qin family were in contact, the two were not yet engaged, so it would not be considered as stealing someone's marriage if their daughter tried to marry the Fourth Prince.
If you want to blame someone, blame Minister Qin for not asking for permission earlier.
"General Jin, you're too kind," the Fourth Prince frankly accepted everyone's different gazes and said truthfully, "I did participate, but this wasn't just my contribution. It's all thanks to my grandfather, General Jin, Luo'er, and my grandfather's adopted son, Mo Kang."
My grandfather could have come, but he was told that he was not feeling well and asked him to come. In fact, he knew it.
The reason for asking him to come was just to get everyone's attention on him. If my grandfather was here, everyone would probably think that my grandfather wanted to help him improve his status, so he said he was involved.
Yu Yiluo looked at the Fourth Prince, who was full of confidence, and raised her lips.
[I suddenly feel that the image of the Fourth Prince has become much more majestic. As expected, people are more attractive only when they have goals.]
The emperor looked at the fourth prince with some surprise, and the corner of his mouth raised.
I am not greedy for credit and I am not proud. I have grown a lot after returning from this trip to Xinglin County.
"The Fourth Prince has achieved such great things at such a young age. We admire him."
The ministers praised the people as if they were free, and complimented all the people involved, of course focusing on complimenting the Fourth Prince and Yu Yiluo.
They were not blind, so they naturally saw the satisfaction in the emperor's eyes.
The Fourth Prince is really going to turn things around this time.
Mr. Mo has no son, so the Mo family's mechanical skills will definitely be handed over to him in the future, and his status will definitely rise.
Now that the emperor is still around, the princes are naturally friendly and respectful to each other.
If the emperor is gone, the princes don’t know what will happen to them, but if the fourth prince has the Mohist mechanical skills, no matter who ascends the throne, no one will be stupid enough to touch him.
"Father, Mo Kang also played an indispensable role in making this training puppet."
My grandfather's hands couldn't do fine assembly, so Uncle Kang gave him guidance and helped him with most of the work, so in his opinion, Uncle Kang made the greatest contribution.
"I have heard of you," the emperor looked at Mo Kang, "What reward do you want?"
