The Duke of Zheng was over fifty years old and wore the Jinxian crown.
Although he wasn't particularly skilled and couldn't compare to Dong Xu, he stood to the side with great composure.
Having served as a Duke for many years, he possessed not only nobility but also refinement.
For example, back then, they faced the Fu family, and also the Bai family and Han family, which were their direct relatives, and they were all stable.
Although Han Oumo's actions could be considered minor or major, the Duke of Zheng faced them calmly and did not hesitate to punish him by deducting his salary.
This is somewhat similar to the Di family. In any case, the emperor treated his maternal uncle quite well.
The Ordnance Bureau, General Lü, and others, having received the imperial decree, took up their guns and began their investigation.
Han Oumo trembled again: "What is this?"
The question we ask today is: "Can you do better?"
Hmph! Han Oumo was incredibly proud! He was extremely dissatisfied with being arrested, and felt somewhat guilty.
What kind of look did he give them? He directly issued an imperial decree: "Han Cheng and his son shall be taken to the Ordnance Bureau together. Erlang shall be in charge of this matter."
Xie Zhou came out to receive the imperial decree.
Letting him take responsibility for this matter shows how much the Emperor trusts his wife.
The Ordnance Bureau received the order. Although Han Oumo might not be able to do it, the Ordnance Bureau wasn't just sitting idly by.
The most confused were Han Cheng and his son. What were they supposed to do at the Ordnance Bureau?
Han Cheng was still hoping that Miao Miao would grant him a title.
Solving the food problem for millions of people in the Great Zhao is a meritorious deed, deserving at least a title of nobility!
Today, seeing him indulging in daydreams, I kindly suggested: "Use Han Cheng as a model, and your sons as craftsmen."
Han Cheng's former official position is out of the question; the position of clerk is not considered an official position.
Han Oumo has gone mad!
Lady Lou has gone mad! She rushed forward and kowtowed, pleading, "Your Majesty is wise! The children know nothing!"
A group of people chimed in, "And there are sweet potatoes, potatoes, and these too."
A quick glance at it today.
Several people who had their mouths open suddenly shut their mouths.
Potatoes aren't in a hurry; that would be regicide. They didn't say anything about cutting them down.
Therefore, Huan Yue asked Lou Shi, "The Han family members are all seventeen or eighteen years old, yet they know nothing. Are they good-for-nothings?"
Lou was furious and ran over to kowtow to her: "Han Oumo returned to Binzhou last month and was busy dealing with things. Actually, we don't have much contact, and I don't know anything about what she does."
Princess Yongqing smiled and said, "Weren't you and your daughter on good terms before?"
Princess Yuqing followed up: "I thought you were the one who arranged this. Who in Sheng'an doesn't know how capable you are?"
A chorus of agreement.
"Otherwise, would Miss Han dare to go out to sea at such a young age?"
"It's all thanks to Madam Lou's excellent teaching!"
"They look like a mother and daughter."
"Why are you so nervous? Since Miss Han can produce excellent things, and the Emperor values her, and General Lü values her, why should she be afraid of not being able to make contributions in the future?"
"Madam Lou seems to only take advantage of things when there's something to gain, and quickly cut ties when there isn't. She abandoned Miss Han in Binzhou as a child; wasn't she forced to go to sea? I never expected her to have such good fortune."
"Don't worry, Madam Lou. Once Miss Han produces something even better, you'll definitely receive a share of the rewards."
So the Lou family really made a laughing stock.
Always so good at picking the best, this time they've made everyone laugh to their heart's content!
I don't quite understand sweet potatoes and firearms, but everyone understands what Lou's situation is like.
Some people care about the seedlings that were left here.
A maidservant called out, "Miss also brought an important treasure."
Huan Yue spoke up: "Bring it here!"
The maid refused.
The eunuch held her down and warned in a low voice, "Don't you want to die?"
The maid finally came to her senses. She quickly found a stick-shaped object in the box; it was quite ornate and inlaid with some gemstones.
The eunuch took it, examined it, found no danger, and presented it to Consort Huan.
Huan Yue took it, looked at it, and thought, "It's good, a telescope."
The maid looked at her with a hint of pride.
Huan Yue picked it up and held it to one eye, then closed his right eye; the effect was alright.
She wasn't particularly interested in that, like peeking at the building across the street. If anything, she quite liked things as they were now.
Huan Yue presented the telescope to the sage.
I think it's unseemly to have only one eye, so let's show it to Erlang.
The maid was a little confused.
The others are a bit more complicated.
How did the Crown Princess know? The way she sat down and held her head—did she bump her head?
Xie Zhou looked at the telescope again and again, and reported to his father, "With muskets and telescopes, it will be much easier for foreign tribes to attack."
The nature of Han Oumo's case has been determined.
The emperor, expressionless, nodded and instructed the eunuch to show it to the King of Song and General Lü.
The King of Song took the fancy-looking thing and looked at it clearly against the palace pillar next to him!
Even through the curtain, it will be much clearer.
The King of Song was solemn. This was probably what the Crown Princess meant when she said there were many things involved.
If you don't do it, but someone else does, you'll suffer sooner or later.
Han Oumo could be said to have done something meritorious. But her attitude was wrong, and besides, no one knows what she did to the foreign tribe.
Even if you ask her, she might not tell you; if you insist on interrogating her, that's another matter.
When it was Duke Zheng's turn, he took the telescope and looked all the way to the Linde Hall and the outside of the Linde Gate!
Han Oumo said she taught outsiders how to make this? That's just mindless.
If he had properly presented the gift to the imperial court, Han Cheng would have been ennobled long ago.
Huan Yue thought, "The best approach is to win people over with virtue and bring peace to the world. Fighting always results in death. Small-scale battles kill fewer people, but large-scale battles kill many. Doing these things is for self-preservation. There are other purposes as well."
Today's question is: "What is its use?"
Huan Yue said, "What if we use it to find people? Or to look at the sky? If we can see farther and more clearly, we'll use it to look at the sky!"
Astronomy enthusiasts will absolutely love this!
She looked up at the roof.
It was dark at this time, and the moon was about to rise.
There are quite a few people who are interested in the heavens!
Xie Zhu ran over to his father, the emperor, and asked, "May I take this to look at the sky?"
Now that they know they're just having fun, they warn, "Be careful!"
"Thank you, Father Emperor!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
A group of teenagers ran out happily!
Huan Yue continued to look at the sky. Whether these boys could derive enjoyment from the sky was not her responsibility.
Consort Cui panicked! She came out and knelt before the Emperor.
Nowadays, when people drink alcohol, hot dishes are served, and the meal is almost finished.
Huan Yue buried his head in his food; the large chunks of stewed duck meat were especially fragrant.
Let Cui Zhaofu speak. He is in his fifties, very well-bred, and holds great power. He is more suitable to discuss certain matters than Consort Cui, who is like a delicate flower.
Consort Cui had no idea that Han Oumo had so many cards to play, all of them good cards!
Cui Zhaofu gathered the cards and started playing again: "I wonder what Your Majesty thinks about the arrangement of these sweet potatoes, corn, and other things?"
The current leader said, "Send Shilang as an envoy to see the situation in various countries before we discuss it further."
King Zheng ran out happily: "Your subject obeys the decree!"
Consort Cui reacted quickly: "Since Miss Han has been there, she can be the deputy envoy."
Huan Yue asked, "Why not have Consort Shu as the deputy envoy? Firstly, to take care of Prince Zheng and prevent him from worrying about him day and night; secondly, what Miss Han can do, surely Consort Shu can do better than her."
The Emperor nodded: "Who else is willing to go with Si Lang?"
Princess Yongmu quickly came forward: "I am willing to go. Although I am not as capable as Miss Han, I will do my best and will not let Great Zhao be humiliated."
