After returning to Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng ordered the Black Ice Guards to interrogate the assassin.
He continued to pick up the pile of memorials and deal with them, but the scene just now was still lingering in his mind.
The fair-skinned and beautiful woman nestled in his arms, soft and boneless, her slender waist that could be held in one hand, her eyes sparkling with water waves, her rosy corners, her lips tightly bitten by her pearly teeth...
Inexplicably, this picture always gave him a strong sense of familiarity, as if he had seen such a captivating beauty before.
Ying Zheng took a deep breath, suppressing the heat and throbbing in his heart, and the gentle waves in his phoenix eyes gradually solidified into ice.
He shoulders the responsibilities and missions of generations of Qin people.
He shouldn't be bothered by these useless emotions.
Ying Zheng returned to being the calm and rational emperor who was not affected by external things.
"Your Majesty, this millstone..."
Zhao Gao looked at the stone pillar still outside the hall and stepped forward to ask.
"Send it back to Chu Qing's home, and have the craftsmen make a few more."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhao Gao thought to himself, it seems that His Majesty likes today's noodles very much, so I have to ask the Shangshi Bureau to prepare more flour next time.
On the other side, in a house in the inner city.
Chu Yuening didn't know how she got home, and was still immersed in shame and anger.
"Sister, sister!"
When A Ye heard the noise, he hurried out of the kitchen and called out.
What happened to you, sister?
Standing at the door motionless.
She was so distraught that she didn't respond when called.
A Ye scratched his head in confusion and had to go forward and pull her clothes.
Chu Yuening was suddenly awakened and found that she was already home. She looked at A Ye, whose little face was full of worry, and comforted him in a gentle voice.
"No problem, I was just thinking about some political matters."
"Oh, then come and have dinner, sister."
A Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
After finishing a bland lunch, Chu Yuening's shame and embarrassment had almost eased.
Today's meal was prepared by the brother and sister. It was simple boiled vegetables that made people's faces turn blue after eating it.
The reason why meat is not cooked is that the pigs nowadays are still not castrated, and the pork is very fishy.
Most people eat poultry. She bought chicken before, but it didn't have any seasonings and the taste was just average.
Now that we have a stone mill, we can improve the food at home a little.
Dumplings, steamed buns, steamed stuffed buns, sliced noodles...
You won’t get tired of eating it every day.
Eh?! That's not right!
Her millstone is still in the palace!
Chu Yuening wanted to cry but had no tears. Is this the punishment for being addicted to men?
It seems that she can only go to the palace to get it tomorrow, although she feels ashamed to see the First Emperor now.
Chu Yuening returned to the bed dejectedly and turned on the system.
Shopping is indeed a joy~
I spent 100 merit points to buy the Soul-Nourishing Liquid, and now I have 900 merit points left.
I searched for papermaking again, and it turned out to be 500 points! A full 500 points!
Chu Yuening gnashed her teeth and cursed in her mind.
"System, you profiteer!"
"500 points of merit, you could have snatched it away, but you still gave me the papermaking technique. How generous of you~"
She worked so hard to accumulate such little merit, but she was reluctant to even participate in the lottery.
How can you be a gambler if you don't have money? This isn't a game.
Thinking that there were many things to buy in the future, her vision suddenly went dark.
"Wow, host, this is not the price I set~"
Before, you called me a baby, but now you call me a profiteer.
A woman's mouth is a lie.
The system feels wronged, but it doesn't say anything.
Although the price is set by the bureau, it does take a commission.
"I've wronged you. Never mind. I can just do it myself."
Chu Yuening even made a video on ancient papermaking in modern times, so she can also make it, but it will definitely take longer.
But spend where you should and save where you should.
If there is any emergency, it would be bad if your pockets are empty.
Isn’t it just papermaking?
She is a great handmade blogger and it is easy to do!
After lunch, Chu Yuening took A Ye and A Hua straight to the market.
Not only did she have to buy materials for papermaking, she also had to find a carpenter to custom-make some tools.
When I came to a market in the inner city, I found that it was more prosperous than the one in the outer city, and the goods sold there were more precious and complete.
The guests coming and going were all dressed elegantly and had rosy complexions.
Chu Yuening looked down at her coarse linen clothes and decided to go to the clothing store to buy some silk clothes.
After all, they are a family of officials.
Before, because of his status as a merchant, he could only wear linen clothes. Now that the serfs have risen up and are singing, of course he cannot let himself be wronged.
After buying clothes, she went to various shops to buy some grains, vegetables, eggs and meat.
Finally, find a carpenter to make the tools needed for papermaking.
The four of them carried several bags of things onto the carriage.
Chu Yuening, who was about to go back directly, suddenly remembered that she had not taken a custom-made iron pot.
It must have been built after so many days, so she asked the driver to go to the outer city market.
After a long time, several people returned with a full load.
As soon as he returned home, he happened to run into Zhao Gao who came to deliver a stone mill.
Chu Yuening was very surprised.
After learning that it was His Majesty's instruction, she once again expressed her gratitude for the Emperor's thoughtfulness.
That afternoon was spent teaching Professor Chu Yuening how to grind, knead and ferment flour.
Everyone raved about the food in the evening.
A Ye and A Hua never thought that the wheat that was hard to swallow before could be so delicious after going through so many processes. They couldn't help but sigh again at A Jie's omnipotence.
