In the "Kaibao Materia Medica" printed in the Northern Song Dynasty in 973 AD, opium was named poppy.
Chinese people use it to cure diseases, while foreigners use it to destroy nations.
It's still this land that will be destroyed!
Sherry smiled and urged Yinzhen to report to Emperor Kangxi, exaggerating the severity of the situation.
Then, Sherry enthusiastically passed on the more refined parts extracted by the people below back to the foreigners.
Cause and effect! Does the karmic retribution in parallel worlds count?
During this period, publishing and printing technology in Europe was already quite advanced.
The increasing publication of books, newspapers, and periodicals has provided important support for the dissemination of knowledge and the exchange of culture.
Sherry thought that Emperor Kangxi probably didn't adopt Western publishing technology in history because of the literary inquisition.
Making people afraid to speak or think is a way to more effectively control the public's thoughts.
To put it bluntly, it was about fooling the Han people. They just never imagined they'd fool their own descendants too!
Sydney purchased the necessary equipment and technology, and retained some students.
Western scientific methods are gradually developing and improving. Scientists are beginning to place greater emphasis on observation and experimentation.
Sydney still bought a lot and sent it back to the college.
I've also stored some myself, including some documents and files.
At the same time, Sydney also made purchases of textile machines as part of the improvements made in Western countries.
The purpose is to encourage students to research and improve upon these methods.
They have no shortage of resources, so they can do whatever they want... In that time, there will be no more people freezing to death on this land.
Furthermore, through Western colonial and trade activities, they finally found the potato.
The couple took a stroll around and learned most of the details.
At the end of the year in the 45th year of the Kangxi Emperor's reign (1706), Shirley finally returned to Beijing.
Even the usually composed Yinshan gets teary-eyed when he sees Xue Li, let alone the spoiled Jinshan.
Hongcha was a bit too old to cry in front of others.
Tana clung to Consort Yi's arm, calling out "brother."
Sherry hugged and kissed the children, lifting them high in the air. The four babies were crying so hard that it was almost impossible to soothe them.
For several days, the family of five slept together, and Tana was still a little shy around strangers.
Hongcha was shy but still very happy.
Yinzhen gave one copy of the prepared materials to his brothers and another to Emperor Kangxi.
Kangxi suppressed it all.
Besides the invention of the textile machine and the potato.
In Western countries, the distinction between ministers and ordinary citizens is often blurred.
In that instant, Yinzhen suddenly realized that his imperial father wasn't so great after all.
The West was reforming and progressing, but the Qing Dynasty pretended to be blind to it.
Perhaps it was because he had engaged in a lot of intrigue with foreigners, or perhaps it was because Yinzhen had met many people.
He managed to suppress his temper and backed down.
Emperor Kangxi still conferred upon him the title of Prince Yi.
The brothers were envious but helpless.
Their handling of state affairs was piecemeal and patched up, while Yinzhen's actions were always groundbreaking and innovative.
In any case, those in power all like such capable ministers.
They did not covet power or get involved in military or political affairs.
Yinzhen accepted the imperial decree with a smile, and after meeting Consort Yi, he returned to his residence.
She remains emotionally stable even when spending time with the children.
She was holding Shirley at night when she suddenly cried, her eyes filled with vulnerability and confusion.
"Father Emperor knows this perfectly well, so why doesn't he change his approach to learning?"
"He knew perfectly well that he was trying to fool the public!"
"If one day it really is as you say, we will all be sinners!"
"..."
As Yinzhen spoke, he gazed into the void, tears streaming down his face.
"So, don't rush, haste makes waste! Look at the Crown Prince..." Shirley nestled into his arms, speaking softly, and kissed away the tears at the corner of his eyes.
"..." Yin Tang held Xue Li without saying a word.
"Your Majesty is in good health and looks like he will live a long life. Some people will be impatient! If they are impatient, they will make mistakes, and those mistakes will be our opportunity!"
Sherry spoke softly, turning to look at Yinzhen, who looked surprised.
"If we want to change things, we can only do it ourselves! You have to understand that no one wants to create an opponent for themselves except yourself! After all, there are many Han people, and the Manchu imperial family is always worried about a Han counterattack, isn't they?!"
It was as if Yinzhen was meeting Shirley for the first time.
Sherry doesn't have a particularly insightful view of things; as the saying goes, she's seen too much, and she's just adopting a God's-eye view.
"Then, if it were you, what would you do?" Yin Tang was conflicted, but more than that, he felt helpless.
"To establish a moral compass for Heaven and Earth, to secure a destiny for the people, to continue the lost learning of past sages, and to usher in an era of peace for all generations."
As Sherry recited those words, her chest felt hot!
Yinzhen's gaze toward Xue Li shifted from surprise to growing increasingly intense.
"Yao Ling, I told you! You must be a Bodhisattva, or at least an immortal!"
As Yinzhen spoke, he pounced on Xue Li and kissed her lips.
"So, Yinzhen, what are you doing? You're blaspheming—" Shirley's words were swallowed back down.
Yinzhen gazed intently at Xue Li with deep eyes.
Sherry breathed softly, her toes curling up forcefully, her legs rubbing together restlessly.
Yinzhen licked and bit Xue Li's lips hard, the sensation was tingling and numb, as if some mysterious switch had been turned on.
Sherry slapped Yinzhen's firm, round buttocks hard with both hands, and Yinzhen, somewhat shyly, bit her neck, leaving many marks.
The two gazed at each other with hazy eyes, their breaths mingling.
Take a branch that is greedy for a slant
Peach cheeks turned into red lips
Swaying willow branches
Like a jade chain
Implicated everywhere
They even rowed the oars.
...
As Yinzhen watched the flowers blooming on the bed, spreading out little by little, he suppressed his bubbly voice and acted coquettishly towards Xue Li.
"Yao Ling~"
Sherry gave him a harmless glare, her eyes brimming with tears.
"Shut up!" Sherry lay there lazily, giving him a soft, low scolding.
Yin Tang was so obedient that he shut his mouth in an instant, but as he looked at the undulating snow mound in front of him, a ball of fire gathered in his body again.
Sherry's legs were fidgeting uncontrollably, and her voice sounded like she was about to sob.
Yin Tang was passionate and held Xue Li in several different positions.
Yes, that makes sense; they're at the age where hormones are raging.
The couple made love every day.
After thinking for a while, Sherry chose a day to take a fertility pill.
Kangxi originally thought that Yinzhen would keep nagging on and on.
It turned out that even though Yinzhen had made great contributions, he was still so useless!
So I let him be.
The princes had agreed to visit the Ninth Prince.
Yintang simply sent out invitations to hold a banquet, which he named the "Plum Blossom Appreciation Banquet".
They weren't actually happy about the ordeal in the dead of winter, but there were so many visitors that even Sherry couldn't get up.
Let's just have a banquet and get everyone together.
The students in the college are divided into research departments and sales departments, and further subdivided into chemistry, traditional Chinese medicine, astronomy, mechanical engineering and so on.
They were very magnanimous, and Yinzhen would not try to take credit for himself.
Some of the students entered officialdom, some held nominal positions in the government, and some devoted themselves to research.
Yintang bought a piece of land at Xueli's suggestion and decided to build a yard.
