Cunning!
Jingrou silently complained to herself. What's going on? He used to be such a refined gentleman, when did she realize he'd gone astray?
Suddenly, I became very shrewd and started thinking about many things.
Actually, it's not that he went astray; he just found a more suitable way to deal with Yinzhi, and he became smarter, so he no longer did anything foolish that would result in mutual destruction or anything like that.
If he were to truly confront Yinzhi head-on, it would inevitably lead to mutual destruction sooner or later... Both were his flesh and blood. Although Emperor Kangxi valued Yinreng more, he could not possibly do anything to Yinzhi for Yinreng's sake.
After all, he was the eldest prince, holding the status of the firstborn son, and his maternal family was also very powerful.
As for Yinreng, although he is the legitimate son, he is much younger. If the two of them fight each other every day, not only will it cause internal strife, but the emperor may not like it either. The emperor probably hopes that Hesheli and Nalan Mingzhu's side will fight each other to balance the relationships in the court, and also hopes that Yinzhi and Yinreng's relationship will not be too good.
However, the emperor also pursues brotherly love and respect, which seems very contradictory. It can only be said that the emperor's thoughts are really hard to guess.
If people compete with each other in doing things, this positive competition would probably be welcomed by the emperor, wouldn't it?
Yinreng smiled, meeting her slightly frightened yet disgusted gaze, and felt another urge to ruffle her hair. He'd just treat it as a kind of fun; actually, he'd been having these recurring dreams for years, and those dreams had subtly influenced him ever since…
Yinreng didn't know what those dreams represented, but since he had such dreams, he took them as a blessing from heaven, allowing him to foresee some things. Even though the dreams were very vague, he could still learn a lot from his guesses and insights. This was probably the reason why his mindset was so different!
However, Yinreng had no way to tell anyone about this matter. It was truly an unbelievable thing, and it was just a dream. No matter how helpful it was to him, it was difficult to explain.
Jingrou has also been considering another matter recently, which is how to do something on her own besides using the system, that is, to use her shallow knowledge of biology... For example, could she make antibiotics, namely penicillin?
You should know that although your points can be redeemed for many amazing medicines, these points are limited, and the items you can redeem are also limited...
These points are extremely valuable, and the items they can be redeemed are only enough for my own family. Anything more would be given to Yinreng.
However, if antibiotics can be developed, although their effects will certainly not be as good as those magical drugs that can be exchanged, these things can be given to ordinary soldiers. If antibiotics can be developed in large quantities, wouldn't the mortality rate drop very quickly?
Jingrou was very tempted.
If she were only half-baked, she certainly wouldn't have been able to figure it out. But she was standing on the shoulders of giants, with Grandma Tu Youyou's methods. Even if it wasn't as deeply ingrained in her mind as it was, at least she had a direction to strive for.
Moreover, researching this kind of thing is not as sensitive as gunpowder, which enhances military strength. You can do it yourself and then use your maternal grandfather to give the formula to the emperor. Or you can research it yourself and have your maternal grandfather take it to the military camp.
This is a great thing that will benefit countless people. If this is accomplished, she might not even need to get points by getting close to others, since she already has merit points herself!
Jingrou thinks it's reliable...
But she is still young. If she wants to do research, she can only try to coax her grandfather into giving her some materials and utensils.
The shapes of the vessels she needed were also very novel, and it would take a long time to communicate with the craftsmen to get it done, so Jingrou spent a lot of time preparing in the early stages.
Anyway, as long as she can talk to her grandfather and pester him for a few more days, she can try to find a more legitimate reason.
Grandfather would definitely agree to their request, so there was another very important thing for Jingrou to do when she returned to the manor this time: to inspect the things she had been researching, including the strange and unusual bottles that she had specifically requested!
Of course, it's the kind of test tubes and bottles we used to use in the lab!
Glass already existed during the Qing Dynasty, and in that era it was called "liuli" (琉璃). It included not only transparent glass but also colored glass.
Actually, transparent glass is the most complex material to manufacture.
To thoroughly remove any impurities, this time my grandfather even commissioned a batch of transparent glass.
Because ancient techniques are different from modern techniques, and the level of skill cannot be reached in ancient times, the extraction methods have to be more cumbersome.
Of course, the price is also very high.
However, Jingrou did not let her maternal grandfather pay her with silver. Instead, she exchanged all the silver, gold seeds, and other valuables she had received over the years for silver notes to pay the money.
In fact, after so many years of accumulation, she was already a "wealthy family" with a lot of money. If she sold some of her possessions, she could probably afford a house in the capital.
The capital city!
This is Beijing in the future, a place where housing prices can soar to tens of millions in no time. But there's no need to worry too much. After all, even if she lived well in this era, she wouldn't have lived to the modern era, or she would have become an old monster.
Jingrou doesn't usually want anything in particular. Her everyday clothes are all made by her several aunts who are overjoyed to have them tailored to her size. Because there are no other girls in the family, her aunts are particularly enthusiastic about making clothes and dresses for her.
Every so often, her aunt would get all excited and ask an embroiderer or tailor to come and make her a lot of clothes.
Jingrou had to tell her aunts in advance that her eldest aunt would be in charge of making the dresses this quarter, and her second aunt would be in charge next quarter. Otherwise, if all three aunts poured their enthusiasm into her, she would have to make a lot more dresses.
Even if I changed my outfit every day, I still wouldn't be able to wear them all!
Even so, she still has to reorganize her wardrobe every now and then.
As for the gold and silver jewelry, not only her maternal grandfather but also three others, her uncles and several cousins, all wanted to give it to her at any time. Inexplicably, Jingrou ended up with several bracelets, several hairpins, and writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones. Her clothing, food, housing, and transportation were all taken care of.
But she rarely asks for anything on her own initiative.
