Imperial Palace, Yuxiu Pavilion.
Princess Yongning was dressing up when Xiaotao came in hurriedly from outside.
"Princess, Lu Huairen just went to cause trouble for Zhao Hao."
"What's going on? Why is he looking for trouble with Zhao Hao?"
"Of course I'm doing this to help you."
Princess Yongning did not appreciate it.
"Who wants him to meddle in other people's business?"
Xiao Tao said, "Princess, Master Lu has always been in love with you. This time he finally has the opportunity, so of course he wants to show off."
"The dog catches the rat."
Yongning looked unhappy.
"And then what? A fight broke out?"
Xiaotao shook her head.
"That's not the case. However, Master Lu invited Zhao Hao to attend the Golden Autumn Literary Conference in three days. We want to have a literary duel at the conference!"
"Wendou?"
Princess Yongning was surprised.
"Did Zhao Manzi agree?"
"I promise. If he loses, he will kneel down in public and apologize to you, Princess."
"If he wins, Master Lu will lose a hundred strings of cash to him."
"Is that guy's brain broken? How could he, a useless person with no knowledge, defeat Lu Huairen?"
Xiao Tao said, "Princess, we don't care what he does. Isn't this just right? If he loses, he will have to kneel down and apologize to you in public!"
Princess Yongning nodded.
"You're right. This time, I want to see what that damn guy will look like when he gets slapped in the face in public."
Xiao Tao laughed and said, "Princess, I think his expression will be very interesting when the time comes!"
…
At Yuxiu Pavilion, Yongning was talking to Xiaotao.
Her Majesty, who had just returned to the Pepper Palace after court, also received the same news.
Jiang Wan'er is in a good mood today.
There's news from the front.
The first batch of reinforcements finally entered the city just before Mubei City was about to fall.
He cooperated with the original soldiers to defend the city and bought time for the second batch of support troops.
In this way, Mubei City is no longer in danger of falling.
However, the reinforcements from Huangman have also arrived.
It seemed as if they were determined to capture Mubei City, and the attack was like a tide, surging and fierce.
In other words, this war is likely to turn into a protracted war.
But this is already a pretty good situation.
As long as Mubei City does not fall.
With the foundation accumulated through years of hard work, the barbarians cannot turn the tide.
What's more, there are powerful weapons like the thunder bomb.
"Qing Xing, how is the production of the thunder bomb going at the General's Office?"
Jiang Wan'er, wearing a loose goose yellow robe, walked out slowly from the inner hall.
She had long hair draped behind her, and her gaze exuded infinite nobility.
The deep eyes and bright and majestic facial features give off a sense of oppression that is extremely beautiful.
"Your Majesty, the General's Office has been working day and night and has already produced three thousand thunder bombs."
"Three thousand... is still too few. We must make them speed up the production. Give them another ten days and they must produce ten thousand."
"Your Majesty, making thunder bombs requires wine jars. The Chief of Works has started to make them on his own and has also purchased them from the public. However, we cannot gather too many at the moment. In addition, the Chief of Works is short of manpower."
"Well, for the sake of confidentiality, it is better not to increase the number of manpower for the time being. Let them work hard. After this war is over, I will have my own rewards!"
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing."
"explain."
"Zhao Hao has been staying in the mansion these past few days and has not come into contact with anyone special. However, this morning, he took the housekeeper and two servants of the Zhao Mansion to the street."
"What did you do?"
"He sells a kind of food called tofu. This kind of food has never appeared before. He invented it himself."
"Tofu? What is that?"
"It is made from soybeans that have been ground and steamed. I don't know how it tastes, but when his tofu was brought to the streets, it was quickly snatched up."
Jiang Wan'er couldn't help but smile.
"First it was gunpowder and thunder bombs, and now there's tofu. That bastard is really capable of making trouble."
Qing Xing said: "After Zhao Hao sold the tofu, he met Lu Huairen, the grandson of the left prime minister, on his way back."
Jiang Wan'er's beautiful eyes flashed: "Did the Lu family boy go to fight for that girl Yongning?"
Qing Xing nodded: "Yes, but he didn't dare to do it directly. He and Zhao Hao agreed to have a literary duel at the Golden Autumn Literary Conference three days later."
Jiang Wan'er was surprised and asked, "Literary fight? Where's that little bastard Zhao Hao? What's his attitude?"
Qing Xing said: "Zhao Hao agreed. If he loses, he must kneel down and kowtow to apologize to the princess in public. If he wins, Lu Huairen will give him 100 strings of cash."
"You agreed so easily?"
"Yeah, and he seems to be determined to win the fight, as if he has something to rely on."
Jiang Wan'er laughed and thought of the previous memorial.
Worry about the world before you worry about yourself, and be happy about the world after you are happy about yourself.
Look at the world with a broad mind and serve the country with a loyal heart.
I will devote my all to the cause until my death.
They are all good sentences!
But until now, she still didn't believe that these sentences that could be spread throughout the world could be written by Zhao Hao.
"Qingxing, please think about it for me. If you are not busy, I will go to Juxian Tower to take a look the day after tomorrow."
"yes!"
"Also, go to the Internal Affairs Office and urge Lord Zhao Wenxiang. There is still a big gap in military funds. Ask him to raise the money as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
…
After giving instructions to Lao Zhong, Zhao Hao returned to his own courtyard and went into his room to write and draw.
If you want to raise pigs, you have to raise them well.
This is also to prepare for the subsequent opening of a restaurant and lay the foundation.
