Chapter 1160 Inspecting the City Wall
The emperor waved his hand indifferently. He had long wanted to see the defensive wall to see if it was as strange as General Cheng described.
Although they were very tired after walking for a whole morning, the ministers did not object because they saw that the emperor was in such high spirits.
Seeing that no one had any objection, the man hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll do as Father wishes."
After lunch, as we walked out of Huimin Shopping Mall, we saw a number of tricycles.
"This is..." The emperor's eyes were full of curiosity.
He hurried over, looked at it carefully, and touched it.
I have never seen a three-wheeled car like this before.
"Father, the journey to the border is long, we need to take a car."
Han Muchen said this while pointing at the tricycle in front of him.
Although he knew Chuchu before, he asked Xu Zhe to install an engine on the tricycle.
But it still feels quite novel to see it now.
The emperor and his ministers were even more surprised when they saw it, and their eyes were shining with curiosity.
The emperor, in particular, sat on it without saying a word, and others followed suit.
Although they were all used to riding in luxurious carriages, they still felt quite comfortable sitting in a car at this moment.
Just as everyone was looking at the tricycle under them with curiosity, the man waved to the young men driving it.
"Let's go!"
Just when everyone was overjoyed, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound and were all scared.
Before I could react, the car rushed forward.
“………………”Everyone was shocked.
He no longer had any curiosity and quickly grabbed the handlebars, but soon relaxed.
The car is running on the flat asphalt road, which is so comfortable.
“Hahahaha…this thing is great!”
The emperor gripped the handlebars and laughed out loud.
I didn’t expect this thing to be faster than a horse, and it’s also very comfortable to sit on.
Even the others regained their composure and were amazed by the tricycle.
I was no longer afraid and looked at the tricycle with curiosity. I didn't expect that there was such a magical thing. It was as if it had wings.
Not to mention them, even Han Muchen was feeling very happy at this moment.
Chuchu's little brain is really a treasure. She can think of installing an engine on a tricycle.
This speed is much faster than a horse. If it is used to deliver an 800-mile express, it will be many times faster.
Qin Chuchu stood in the yard and heard the rumbling sounds outside fade away. She knew that they must have left on the tricycle.
When I think of them traveling around on tricycles, I feel so envious.
Fortunately, I will be out of confinement in two days, so I can finally say that I have made it.
Looking at Su Xue's closed door, he frowned.
“………………”
It's summer time and they don't even feel the heat; they still live with the door closed.
At this moment, Liu Qing was standing in front of Su Xue in a proper manner.
"Miss Liu, if this matter is accomplished, I will definitely let the prince take you as his concubine."
Su Xue looked at Liu Qing in front of her with a smile on her face, then glanced at Aunt Xu beside her. Aunt Xu handed over a paper bag.
"Thank you for your kindness, young lady. I will definitely live up to your expectations."
Liu Qing pretended to be very excited and quickly took the medicine bag in her hand.
Seeing this woman so happy, Su Xue curled her lips sarcastically and reached out to help her up.
"From now on, you and I are sisters. There's no need to be so formal."
Looking at the face in front of me that was so different from my own, I felt extremely contemptuous.
It's really true that greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant. With such beauty, she still dreams of becoming a concubine.
I thought that once the matter was done, I could just give him some money as a reward.
Wanting to compete with her for a man is simply a dream.
"Then Qing'er would like to thank you, sister!"
Liu Qing still looked very excited, but also felt very contemptuous in her heart.
The prince has not even bothered to look at her yet, and he still brazenly says he wants to take her as his concubine. Where does she get the courage from?
Holding the medicine bag in his hand, he already had a plan in mind.
“………………”
The prince can only belong to her.
At this moment, the emperor and his entourage had already arrived at the border on a tricycle.
Just when everyone's attention was on the tricycle, the emperor's exclamation was heard.
"Chen'er, that's the city wall, right?"
"Yes, that's our defensive wall." The man nodded.
Everyone looked over at the sound, and when they saw the city wall that looked like a long dragon, shock appeared in their eyes again.
Before I had time to think, the car had already arrived at the foot of the city wall.
The emperor couldn't wait to get out of the car and walked towards the city wall excitedly.
Today, the city wall is more than ten meters high, and people standing under it seem very small.
The emperor craned his neck to look at the tall city wall in front of him, so excited that he couldn't speak.
The ministers also came forward and looked at the city wall in shock.
Everyone had the same thought in their mind: how much money would this cost!
Its current height is much higher than the city walls of the capital, and the people on it are still working on it.
Just as everyone was in shock, a man's deep voice rang out.
"Father, this way."
As Han Muchen spoke, he pointed to the stairs next to him. The emperor then looked over and nodded with a trembling voice.
"Okay." He was very excited.
Even when she walked, she had to be supported by a man. She climbed up the stairs and touched the city wall carefully.
It was as if he was looking at a rare treasure. When he reached the city wall that was more than ten meters high and looked at the Chuxiong territory opposite, he could no longer hold back his emotions and tears welled up in his cloudy old eyes.
“………………”
For hundreds of years, the Chuxiong people have often provoked wars.
Only because Chen'er forced them to sign the peace agreement have there been peace in these years.
But everyone knows that it is only a superficial peace. The people of Chuxiong have always been ambitious and may break the agreement and commit the same offense again one day.
But now, with this indestructible city wall under his feet, Chuxiong’s thoughts can be said to have been shattered.
Even if you want to invade, you will have to pay a heavy price.
Even the court officials were shocked, especially the military generals, who looked at the city wall in front of them with shock and surprise.
No one understood the significance of this wall better than them, and how many lives could have been saved in the battle between the two armies.
Seeing his father so excited, the man comforted him at the right time:
"Father, be careful with your dragon body."
"Okay, okay, let's go over there and take a look." The emperor choked up and patted the man's shoulder, then pointed to the people working in the distance.
As I walked, I curiously touched the city wall, trying my best to control my excitement.
Seeing the emperor coming, Feng Yi hurriedly led everyone to pay their respects.
"Long live our emperor!"
The voices of the five hundred thousand young men shook the sky and shocked everyone present again.
"Stand up." The emperor raised his hand and turned to look at the man beside him.
“How many people are working on this construction?”
Looking at the endless crowd in front of us, the number of people cannot be small.
"Your Majesty, the current number of people is 500,000, and the project will be completed in another year."
"Another year?!" The emperor was stunned.
