Chapter 847 I won't take my anger out on you

Xinbao murmured, "Before, they pretended that the letters they wrote for Xinbao were all written by Xinbao himself, but just now, Xinbao accidentally let it slip... Then wouldn't his wife know that the previous letter was not written by Xinbao? Then wouldn't the credit for the previous letter, which Xinbao wrote with great effort, be taken away by someone else?"

Emperor Mingpei didn't say anything, as his wife would be able to tell at a glance. Instead, he nodded seriously, "Yes, what should we do? Should we get her back?"

Xinbao thought... If she gets it back, won't Xu Zhiyu have to write it? She wants to file a complaint, but if she files a complaint, won't she have to write it herself?

The only two remedies were to rewrite it herself or not to complain, neither of which she was happy about.

So she said silently: "Forget it."

She folded her hands sadly and lay on the table: "Life is like this, we never know what will happen next... When something has already happened and there is no way to change it, the only thing we can do is accept it."

Emperor Mingpei: “…”

That's good, little guy. You are much more insightful than him.

Xu Zhiyu said carefully: "It is my fault that I have caused trouble for Your Highness."

Xinbao waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid. This is Xinbao's own mistake. Xinbao won't take his anger out on you. Let's get to work now."

So the two continued to work.

It took four days to finish the initial infrastructure. We can add more as we think of more.

Xinbao said to him, "These things are very troublesome. They may take a lot of effort, a lot of people, and a long time to make. But in fact, we only need a little bit of them. But these things can also be used in other places, so it won't be too wasteful... Anyway, Xinbao just wants this thing. No matter how much it costs, Xinbao doesn't know if it can be done. You can ask me, Yeye, Daddy, or Brother. If you don't know, just ask Lord Gan. Lord Gan is very smart and does everything very well."

Xu Zhiyu agreed repeatedly.

Xinbao thought for a moment and then said, "If you really can't do it, come and ask Xinbao if there is any way to find something else to replace it."

Xu Zhiyu still agreed.

Xinbao said: "That's it, you go first."

Only then did Xu Zhiyu stand up and leave.

Emperor Mingpei looked at him with a smile.

In fact, Xu Zhiyu was very smart, and he responded to him very appropriately, but he had not yet learned how to get along with Xinbao, so his flattery caused trouble.

Fortunately, he is good-looking, so Tuanzi doesn't hate him.

Seeing him leave, Xinbao thought for a moment.

Although this matter is troublesome, it seems that her work has been completed? ? In fact, it is quite simple?

Then she sat aside, her eyes empty, and secretly communicated with Yan Ji.

Emperor Mingpei suddenly asked her, "Xinbao, are you still afraid of the Yangxin Palace now?"

Xinbao said casually: "Don't be afraid!"

Emperor Mingpei said, "Then after a while, shall we move to the Yangxin Palace?"

Xinbao said again: "Of course!"

She spoke without thinking, "Wherever Yeye goes, Xinbao will go with Yeye."

Emperor Mingpei smiled but said nothing.

If Yan Shirong were here, he would know that Emperor Mingpei intended to abdicate, but Xinbao was busy knitting socks and didn't think much about it.

Emperor Mingpei said nothing more, just frowned and pondered.

Fang Wuyou came in to report: "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince is back."

Emperor Mingpei nodded.

The Sixth Prince, who should now be called Prince Duanhe, has been handling follow-up matters there after Yan Shirong came back, so it is time for him to come back.

After a while, Prince Duanhe came in.

Prince Duanhe had been away for several months. He looked much calmer. He bowed and sat down to report.

In fact, all the matters were written in the memorial, and there was nothing much to say, so Emperor Mingpei quickly nodded to show that he understood.

Then Prince Duanhe said to Xinbao, "Your Highness, how are you these days? I brought you a little toy."

Xinbao asked, "What gadget?"

Prince Duanhe said: "It is a kind of fun wooden figure, a wooden armor artist."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Emperor Mingpei was somewhat surprised and asked, "The skill of the wooden armor artist is still passed down in the world?"

"Yes," Prince Duanhe laughed hastily, "It was offered by the craftsman on his own initiative, but it is slightly different from what is said in the legend. It can only dance, not sing."

Mujia Yiling is very famous.

It is said that during the Spring and Autumn Period, King Mu of Zhou went hunting and met a mysterious craftsman named Yanshi. While the two were talking, King Mu of Zhou found that there was a person with colorful clothes next to him, who did not say a word or move. He felt a little strange, so he asked about it.

Yanshi then said that this was a wooden armored actor he made of wood, which could sing and dance.

King Zhou Mu did not believe it, so he asked it to perform in public. It performed well in both singing and dancing, but King Zhou Mu discovered that it was flirting with his concubine.

King Zhou Mu thought that it couldn't be made of wood and must be a real person. He was furious and ordered everyone to take the person out and behead him.

In order to prove himself, Yanshi dismantled the wooden man in public, and found that it was indeed made of wood. When he put it back together, it could sing and dance, and its bright eyes were moving and sending seductive glances.

But this skill has been lost for a long time. I didn’t expect that someone can still do it today.

A little legend was told in a very interesting way by Prince Duanhe. Xinbao became curious, so Prince Duanhe asked someone to carry it in.

There was no room in the house, so it was placed behind the Qianqing Palace.

Mujia Yiling is dressed in opera costume, wearing a red skirt, playing the role of a female lead, and is about the same height as an ordinary person.

Xinbao even asked Yeye to hold him and went over to take a closer look.

Because opera requires face painting, it looks flawless, even the pupils seem to be moving.

The stage was also specially made. After the Hua Dan was placed on it, the movements began. Every move, including her arms and waist, was extremely smooth. There was really no sense of incongruity. When the dance reached its climax, the sleeves were thrown more beautifully than those thrown by real people. She danced for about a quarter of an hour before reluctantly leaving the stage.

Xinbao kept praising.

Prince Duanhe laughed and said, "Originally, there was someone singing in the background, coordinating with her movements. That was how it was demonstrated when I went there. I couldn't tell it was fake at all."

Xinbao asked, "But how did you do this?"

Prince Duanhe laughed and said, "I asked about it at that time. The man said a lot, but I was very stupid and didn't understand. I also asked someone to take it apart and have a look. There are so many mechanisms inside that it's really dazzling. It is said that the wooden man and the stage need to be coordinated. We can't see it from this perspective, but if we look closely, we can see that there are many small platforms that can go up and down. Every step of the actor is very particular. There are magnets under the stage when they step on it. Only when the upper and lower parts are coordinated can they dance."

He paused for a moment and said, "The craftsman said that it took ten years to build these two actors and this stage."
