"However, if I could take Ah Chen to see my world, then we could go back together. Ah Chen must be very curious about my world..."
After comforting Mo Beichen, Yun Qingluo shared everything about her hometown with him.
"Where we live, we have air conditioning, electric fans, and popsicles in the summer."
When I was little, my favorite thing to do was sit in front of the electric fan with half a watermelon, eating it while watching cartoons. Unfortunately, the orphanage didn't have those facilities, so I only did it twice.
"But the director is very nice, very kind to me, and especially kind to all the children in the orphanage..."
Next, Yun Qingluo shared every detail of her growth in the modern world with Mo Beichen.
Mo Beichen listened patiently, occasionally asking about a few words that sounded quite unusual.
What is an air conditioner?
"You can feel the coolness, which is more comfortable than the coolness brought by ice cubes. It can also generate heat, just like the fire dragon, but the fire dragon is better because it is not so dry."
"But it's okay, we have humidifiers..."
What is a refrigerator?
"It's like an ice cellar, but smaller. It can preserve a lot of food, keeping it fresh and freezing it. It's more convenient than an ice cellar."
What is a villa?
"It's a very, very big house, with several floors. The more luxurious ones even have a back garden, and it's quite nice..."
"A train? Is it a horse-drawn carriage that breathes fire?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo couldn't help but laugh.
Ah Chen, so cute...
Xiao Yi was laughing so hard in the system that he almost cramped up.
Yun Qingluo hugged Mo Beichen tightly. At this moment, Mo Beichen looked like a pure young boy, with a clear and innocent naiveté in his eyes.
Ah Chen is so cute!
When Mo Beichen heard Yun Qingluo's laughter, he knew that he must have misunderstood.
However, he was not at all uncomfortable. He always knew how to maintain a thirst for knowledge and a sense of awe when it came to areas that were unknown to him.
Besides, what's the point of saving face in front of his wife?
Yun Qingluo also noticed the change in Mo Beichen, which made her very happy.
When Ah Chen was with her, he was no longer cautious and no longer worried about saying the wrong thing.
Although he still feels insecure, at least he won't lower his stance as much as he did at the beginning.
"A train is a means of transportation, similar to a horse-drawn carriage, but it doesn't need to be pulled by horses and is much, much faster than a horse-drawn carriage."
For example, during our disaster relief efforts in Southwest China, it would take months to reach the area by horse-drawn carriage, but by train it might only take two or three days.
Mo Beichen was shocked, "So fast?"
If they had this kind of train, then the transportation of grain and supplies would be much easier...
The journey to the capital for the imperial examinations will be greatly shortened, and the appointment of local officials will be faster, greatly improving efficiency.
Hearing Mo Beichen's surprised tone, Yun Qingluo had some guesses in her mind.
"Ah Chen wants it?" Yun Qingluo looked in Mo Beichen's direction.
The moonlight streamed in, casting a faint glow that barely revealed Mo Beichen's outline.
Mo Beichen pondered for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "No, this kind of thing shouldn't be here."
Having things you shouldn't have will naturally come at a higher price.
However, one day, we will be able to build a vehicle here that is faster than a horse-drawn carriage.
As Yun Qingluo listened to Mo Beichen's calm and collected voice, a sense of pride rose in her heart.
Look, this is her man.
When faced with the unknown, uphold the spirit of learning, be respectful but not fearful, and appreciate but not greedy.
If it were someone else, upon hearing that such a wonderful thing existed, their first instinct would probably be to want to possess it and keep it for themselves.
But his A-Chen is domineering but not tyrannical, powerful but kind-hearted.
In his heart, there will always be a place occupied by the common people.
Ah Chen, he was born to be a king.
Yun Qingluo smiled, closed her eyes, and nestled comfortably in Mo Beichen's arms.
"Ah Chen, if there's a chance in the future, I'll take you to see my hometown."
"By the way, in our area, men can only have one wife."
Girls there can also study and serve their country just like boys.
There, law-abiding behavior and gender equality are promoted. In my hometown, women are just as capable as men…
Yun Qingluo fell asleep while talking.
Mo Beichen was so engrossed in the world Yun Qingluo described that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
When she came to her senses, she was about to ask Yun Qingluo what laws were upheld in her hometown when she looked down and saw a familiar sleeping face.
Mo Beichen chuckled softly, reached out to tuck the blanket around Yun Qingluo, and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.
"Luo Luo, you are truly a blessing to me," Mo Beichen whispered.
The next day.
When the clouds began to fall, Mo Beichen had already gone to court.
"Yun Tao, why didn't you wake me up? Today I'm supposed to go pay my respects to the Empress Dowager." Yun Qingluo suddenly sat up and shouted towards the door.
The door was pushed open, and Yun Tao came in with several palace maids to help Yun Qingluo wash up.
"Your Majesty, this is not our fault. It was His Majesty who ordered us not to wake you," Yun Tao said with a smile.
Yun Qinglu glared at her, "Yun Tao, who is your master, him or me? Now you're siding with outsiders."
Yun Tao chuckled, picked out two outfits, and brought them over for Yun Qing to choose from.
Yun Qingluo casually pointed to something, "How about Zeyan and Qianyue?"
Yesterday, not only was she made empress, but Zeyan was also made crown prince, and Qianyue was made princess of Fu'an.
Yun Qingluo was afraid that the two children would not like it, so she did not take them out.
"Yunxin went to see His Highness the Crown Prince and the Princess. They're probably awake now. Should we bring her over for Her Majesty to see?" Yun Tao dampened a handkerchief and handed it to Yun Qingluo.
Yun Qingluo took the handkerchief and shook her head. "I'll visit them after I've finished paying my respects to the Empress Dowager."
Yun Tao nodded and carefully did Yun Qingluo's hair and makeup.
Yun Qingluo glanced outside and realized it was getting late. She quickly changed into her palace attire and led her entourage toward Cining Palace.
When the clouds fell on Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager was having breakfast.
When the nanny beside the Empress Dowager heard that Yun Qingluo had arrived, she said coldly, "What time is it now? Is she only coming now because she is favored by the Emperor? Your Majesty, we should set some rules for the Empress so that she will not take you seriously."
The Empress Dowager glanced at her indifferently, making the nanny feel guilty, before the Empress Dowager looked away.
"Don't you know what kind of end result you've all had when you fought against her?" The Empress Dowager put down her spoon and picked up a handkerchief to wipe the corner of her mouth.
"Alright, go and call her in. It's cold outside. If she catches a cold, the Emperor will blame me later," the Empress Dowager said to the eunuch beside her.
The old man bowed and hurriedly ran out to deliver the message.
The Empress Dowager stood up, and the nanny hurriedly helped her to the seat of honor, then placed a hand warmer in her hands.
