Chapter 027: Looks pretty cool
"Your Highness, it's time to get up, Your Highness..."
The next day, Qin Zhaoyue woke up again before dawn.
Who would understand? She traveled through time and space, and she was a princess of noble status. But she only slept in for the past few days, and was forced to stay awake when it got dark.
This is such a crappy show, I might as well not wear it!
On the large and soft bed, Qin Zhaoyue turned over and used his big butt to show his position.
Taoyao was almost crying after wasting half an hour, and finally got up under Suimo's pressure.
Just say you are not on the same page with her!
"Your Highness, it's too late..."
Qin Zhaoyue yawned and waved his hand calmly.
She figured it out these days: she had to get up so early to put on makeup and change clothes.
Yan Ci refused to put on makeup and dress up. She just did a face-saving job in the morning, and the rest was all about hurrying on her way.
She is not the protagonist, and it is so hot that she is too lazy to do it.
The maids couldn't persuade her, so they couldn't use the clothes they had prepared, and could only take out a piece of clothing that had already been packed.
Sui Mo sighed and said, forget it, I won’t wear it if I don’t want to.
She pulled out a piece of inner armor from her back and said, "Your Highness, this is a soft armor made of gold thread. It is invulnerable to swords and spears."
Qin Zhaoyue:! There is such a good thing.
I took it and it felt very light and a little cool. "How can it be invulnerable to swords and guns if it's so light?" I couldn't let it go and put it on quickly.
"This is the golden silk spun by the ninth-year-old silkworms from the snowy mountains of the Western Regions. Each silkworm only produces seven inches of usable silk.
Thousands of silk threads were twisted into a strand and immersed in the cold spring of Kunlun for forty-nine days to be tempered. The color of the silk turned from bright gold to dark gold.
Not only can it block sharp weapons like knives and guns, it can even reduce the penetration of true energy to a certain extent."
Qin Zhaoyue's eyes lit up. Good stuff!
"Okay! From now on you will be my half-sister."
Sui Mo was horrified. How could he say that? He immediately knelt on one knee, "I dare not!"
Even though she was a captain of the Qingluan Guard, it was impossible for her to own such a valuable thing.
This came from His Majesty's treasury. As far as she knew, not even the eldest princess had any, so it was given to the sixth princess.
It's a unique honor, but the key is that His Majesty won't let her speak about it. This is really...
Qin Zhaoyue waved her hand indifferently, "Hurry up and change it for me."
The upper body is not heavy, and the soft armor is somewhat tough, but it does not feel stuffy. After wearing it, you will feel very safe.
My gloomy mood finally improved a little because I didn't have to put on makeup or dress up, so I still had some time.
An exceptionally sumptuous breakfast was served in the main hall.
It would take at least two or three months to get there, and it would probably be autumn before Qin Zhaoyue could return to Beijing. He was reluctant to leave.
But no matter how reluctant I was, I had to go. I ate until my stomach was full, then I went out with my face bare.
He did not ask for any ceremonial guards. In addition to Taoyao, Suimo and his twelve Qingluan Guards accompanied him as maids.
The painter had no use for the five people he had just subdued, so he left them in the capital to prepare the storybooks.
Qin Zhaoyue has already made arrangements and will publish the book directly. She might become a wealthy woman by the time she returns to Beijing.
The math is actually useful, whether it is for calculating food supplies, raising funds for consumption, or for overall planning.
But she was not in charge. The one leading this time was the young chief of the Wanmin Division, so there was no need for her to send anyone to do the calculations.
Apart from these two, the remaining three: Ping An, the alchemist, and the magician all accompanied them.
2:15 AM, Vermillion Bird Gate.
The empress wore a nine-pheasant hairpin and led all the civil and military officials to see off the disaster relief team.
The five thousand guards held spears like a forest, exuding a majestic aura.
The three people at the front of the formation, in the middle is the only remaining junior officer of the Wanmin Division;
The eldest princess on the left is wearing flowing cloud armor, looking heroic;
The fifth prince on the right is wearing a Tianshui Qinghang Luo robe, which is spotless and as blue as jade.
Qin Zhaoyue was far away, with her hands in her pockets and looking forward with empty eyes.
Even though she was not serving in the disaster relief team, she was a princess after all and should have stood at the front, but she insisted on not joining in the fun.
If he could see the Queen Mother before setting off, he could even throw a tantrum and beg for mercy.
At this time, in front of all the civil and military officials, the relief team is about to set off. If you make a fuss, you will definitely not end up well.
Since the ending cannot be changed, why bother getting involved?
[I am still naive. I told the truth when I was asked to, and you even pardoned me. Tsk!
Is it possible to speak the truth blindly? I only speak to myself!
Alas, I was too impatient for quick success and wanted to get it done in one go.
It’s better to continue pretending to be a fool, at least you won’t get into such trouble.
From now on, it’s better to be submissive and enjoy a leisurely life…]
The mumbling voice emerged in Qin Minghuang's mind. He glanced around and found Xiaoliu behind the formation.
The moment their eyes met, Xiaoliu immediately lowered his head, and his expression could no longer be seen.
Qin Minghuang's heart sank slightly. It seemed that this tough decision had alienated the child.
It is true that she is in her prime, but the sooner the crown prince is chosen, the smoother the transition to the second generation of empress will be.
Just as Xiaoliu commented in the Imperial Study at that time, the shortcomings of the three daughters were obvious, so he was unable to make a decision.
Xiaoliu's peculiarity and wisdom made Qin Minghuang see another possibility. Sending her to accompany him this time had nothing to do with punishment. Although the "old mother" was really angry about this, it was all for a test.
With regard to abilities and character, after having seen the country and its people and experienced flood relief, will you still insist on hiding your shortcomings?
"Hey, I'm talking to you."
Sui Mo raised his head slightly and saw the Sixth Princess's mouth opening and closing slightly beside him. He then said in a voice transmission, "Your Highness, please be patient. We will be leaving soon."
Qin Zhaoyue glanced at the other person and found that his mouth and throat did not move at all, which was completely different from his pretending not to speak.
This was a skill he had developed from whispering in class, but Sui Mo should have used his true Qi to transmit his voice.
"Is the one at the front of the army from the Meng family?"
Sui Mo couldn't help but sigh inwardly, and after a few pauses, he finally answered, "Yes, the third son of the Meng family, Meng Jian, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards."
Qin Zhaoyue raised an eyebrow, "She looks quite attractive."
Broken Ink:!
This person is not easy to tease.
The Meng family is not only a duke, but also has defended the capital for generations and is the most steadfast member of the imperial party.
The late emperor, against all odds, passed the throne to the present Majesty, and the first family he entrusted the throne to was the Meng family. They were the leaders of the 200,000 imperial guards in the important capital area.
When Your Majesty first ascended the throne, if the Meng family had not sworn to follow you to the death, you would not have been able to take over the throne smoothly.
Meng Jian is the third legitimate son of this generation. At a young age, he is already the deputy commander of the imperial guards. If nothing unexpected happens, he will become one of the leaders.
Sui Mo subconsciously wanted to advise that if it was not for the position of crown prince, the disadvantages of contacting the Meng family would far outweigh the advantages and he would definitely be feared.
But then I thought about the secret decree sent by His Majesty...it didn't seem impossible...
Just as her thoughts were racing, she heard the Sixth Princess sigh, "Such a handsome guy, what a pity..."
What a pity? What's the pity?
[Tsk, what a pity. Such a handsome man, but he has to be from the Meng family. What bad luck!]
It would be great if he was a soldier. I can tease him and take him into the princess's mansion to rub clothes with his abdominal muscles every day, hehehe...]
Qin Minghuang:!
Rubbing clothes with her abdominal muscles, she is indeed still that Xiaoliu. Thinking of the painter she hired into the mansion...
The empress's fist hardened again, and the trace of guilt that had just risen in her heart instantly disappeared without a trace.
After the prime minister's legitimate son, now it's the Meng family's turn? But judging from her inner voice, she avoids them like a scorpion.
It is a taboo for princes and princesses to have contact with the Meng family, but Qin Minghuang suddenly had an evil idea.
If Xiaoliu was really involved with the Meng family or the Pei family, even if she didn't want to, everyone would think she was involved in the fight for the throne.
What a coincidence is that the most outstanding people of this generation from the Meng and Pei families are all in the disaster relief team!
The three disaster relief envoys noticed that His Majesty's expression had become gloomy, and they didn't know what he was thinking about.
Soon, the Ceremonial Department's procedures were completed, Qin Minghuang gave a few final words of encouragement, and the disaster relief team officially set off.
Qin Zhaoyue had never left the capital and was still very curious about the outside world. Then she fell asleep.
Yes, it was indeed a fresh feeling at the beginning, but I found that there were either roads or trees, and the most important thing was that I saw a dirty thing in the team.
I don't know why, but the Prime Minister's son was also in the disaster relief team, and it made me feel annoyed just looking at him.
The carriage was cushioned with soft cushions, and Qin Zhaoyue slept soundly.
Sui Mo, who was riding in the same carriage with her, shook her head silently. The Sixth Princess slept too much.
She is restless even in sleep, with her lips pouting, and I don’t know who she is competing with in her dream. Without makeup, she looks like a pretty little girl, so cute... oh!
Sui Mo quickly suppressed this dangerous thought, thought about the princess's bad character, and turned his head away abruptly.
At noon, the team stopped and the eldest princess came in person, and Qin Zhaoyue woke up.
"What's wrong, big sister?"
The eldest princess was wearing armor and did not show any signs of fatigue after walking for half a day, which was in sharp contrast to her laziness.
Qin Zhaoyue guessed that her elder sister also had some martial arts skills, and her level might be quite high.
“The roads near the capital are easier to travel, so I decided not to cook lunch.
We'll stop for a while to let the horses rest, and then we'll eat some dry food and cook after we set up camp at night."
There were three royal family members in the team, and she herself was considered a soldier, so marching was just a normal thing for her.
It's okay for the fifth brother to be a little rough, but she, the sixth sister, is used to being arrogant and extravagant, and has never suffered any hardship since she was a child, so she came to explain in person.
"Okay, big sister, you don't have to worry about it. I will obey your arrangements."
Qin Zhaoqiong was a little nervous when she came, after all, she knew her sister's style of doing things.
Although the imperial study's frank confession had changed his opinion of her, and he might be quite smart, he fell asleep in the court the next day...
She really didn't expect that she would be so cooperative, and the repeated calling of "Big Sister" reminded her of her childhood.
As the eldest princess, the other little kids followed her around all day long, calling her "Sister, sister".
But everything changed when she grew up. Unconsciously, Qin Zhaoqiong touched her sister's head.
I saw that she had fallen asleep in the carriage and her hair was all messed up, so I helped her smooth it out.
Feeling the strength of the palm and the little head pushing against her like a little beast, Qin Zhaoqiong's heart almost melted and her voice softened unconsciously.
"You should get off the bus occasionally to walk around and get some fresh air. It's uncomfortable to sit for too long. You still have a long way to go."
"Yeah, I know."
Qin Zhaoqiong was busy, and the team had just set out and was about to leave because he had to discuss the marching and deployment with the guards.
At this time, Qin Zhaoyue asked someone to bring a food box, "Big sister, this is the cakes from Tianxianglou that I brought for you."
She knew in her heart that although her elder sister was nominally the deputy envoy, in reality she was the one who had the final say in the team.
Moreover, if the second generation of empress is to be maintained, the strong eldest sister is more suitable than the third and fourth sisters, and may very well be the future crown prince.
If I want to live a life of free food and drink in the future, I will have to rely on this person a lot.
The original body's relationship with the eldest princess can only be described as very average. After all, given that little fool's personality, it would be strange for him to like her.
I want to improve the relationship now. Besides, more courtesy is always welcome.
Qin Zhaoqiong thought that she was still a child after all, sleepy and gluttonous, but seeing her sparkling eyes, he finally took it.
"Okay, thank you, Sixth Sister."
"It's okay, I have plenty."
Before the princess returned, the deputy general saw her bringing back a food box and asked what it was.
"The brocade pastry given by my sixth sister."
The deputy general shook his head and said, "Sixth Princess, you don't know that our general doesn't like sweet things."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, but the eldest princess dodged it.
"Who said I don't like to eat?"
Lieutenant General:?
