Huan Yue followed the eunuch into the Xuanzheng Hall.
Then I heard a dog barking!
It roughly says: "When the masses are against the will, virtue will be hidden, and the wind will be different. When the wind blows, things will not grow, and the rain will be light but harmful. When the government is contrary to virtue and this is hidden, it is called chaos. When the wind blows first but does not bring rain, a great storm will rise, destroying houses and breaking trees... When the feudal lords do not pay homage to this, it is called rebellion. When the wind is unpredictable, the land will turn red, and the rain will kill people."
Huan Yue didn't quite understand.
Anyway, when she entered the hall, the dog was still howling non-stop.
“A minister who seeks official rank and position is greedy, and his calamity is like insects eating his roots. A minister whose virtue is not constant is troublesome, and his calamity is like insects eating his leaves. A minister who is not virtuous is without merit, and his calamity is like insects eating his roots. A minister who contends with the East is out of season, and his calamity is like insects eating his stem. A minister who conceals evil breeds calamity, and his calamity
These are not the same thing.
Anyway, it's just utter nonsense, both high and low.
When the princes and nobles learned that the Crown Princess had arrived, they showed some respect.
Zeng Huan turned around and cursed at Huan Yue!
Holy crap, he did it on purpose! Huan Yue was truly disgusted by this sleazy man!
Zeng Huan was not tall, wore a scarlet robe, and put on an aloof demeanor, but in reality, he was spitting everywhere, even spraying spittle onto the Crown Princess's face.
Huan Yue looked into his small eyes and saw the excitement burning within them! She was excited too.
Zeng Huan disdained women and turned around to curse the emperor!
Huan Yue put the two boxes aside.
Zeng Huan, hands on hips, cursing the emperor—it was truly exhilarating! One should enjoy life to the fullest when things are going well!
Huan Yue slapped him across the mouth.
Di Chang was so close that he seemed to hear the sound of something being smashed to pieces.
The eunuch followed her in, and saw that the Empress had crushed Zeng Huan's teeth! How terrifying!
Although the eunuch had no power, he didn't want to be toothless. He also felt the Empress's reprimand was incredibly satisfying.
The emperor, sitting on his throne, was stunned. When he came to his senses, he roared in anger, "Qing'e, come here!"
Huan Yue carried the box and approached the throne, protected by a sage.
Today, she was so angry she almost laughed: "What are you holding?"
Huan Yue put the box down, opened it, and took out a pot of peonies, then took out another pot.
In the magnificent and imposing Xuanzheng Hall, the atmosphere during the morning court session was tense and tense.
As soon as the Crown Princess arrived, she gave Zeng Huan a nudge, and then brought out two pots of flowers that were slowly blooming.
King Zheng was nearby and could faintly smell the fragrance.
Zeng Huan's teeth were broken, so he had to shut down his microphone for the time being.
The emperor wanted to see the crown princess, so everyone could only give her a chance to perform.
Huan Yue finished setting out and knelt down to pay his respects.
This aura instilled a sense of awe in all the officials.
We've brought everything back to normal, even the mess we had before.
Huan Yue's voice was clear and upright: "I planted quite a few vegetables in Qing'e Palace. Yesterday, the cucumbers were damaged, and I originally wanted to pick some to present to Your Majesty. The delicate flowers in the flower garden were also damaged, but the palace servants tidied them up. Your Majesty, do you think they are blooming very well?"
The King of Song asked, "Did you not move this into the house yesterday? Did you dig it up from the flowerbed today?"
Huan Yue said, "It wasn't this pretty when it was moved indoors. The ones that weren't dug up in the flower garden should be even better now."
The King of Song asked, "Why are you concerned about these things so early in the morning?"
Huan Yue respectfully replied, "I got up late today. When I came out, the courtyard was spotless, and the weather was perfect! It's all thanks to a good emperor!"
That's some serious flattery! Even the King of Song would be impressed!
Once the Prince of Song spoke, no one else could get a word in edgewise. Clearly, the Prince of Song sided with the Crown Prince.
Although the King of Song was over sixty years old, he was in good spirits and a very upright person.
Even the emperor had to defer to him when he spoke; it was a rare occasion for him to come.
Huan Yue couldn't keep staring at the King of Song; this was a serious interview, not a college entrance exam.
The Song Emperor, who was the chief examiner, asked: "Do you know about the lightning strike on the Chongjiao Hall?"
Huan Yue said, "I knew about it last night. I was even thinking about how much silver it would cost to repair the Chongjiao Hall and how to make a lightning rod. I was thinking too much and that's why I went to bed late."
One of the younger men couldn't help but shout, "You think fixing it is all it takes?"
Huan Yue stared at him, utterly bewildered: "It's not like you're incurable. When people are sick, they go to the doctor and take medicine, right? And houses need regular maintenance, don't they?"
The man in his thirties, who was very good-looking and came from a good family—far superior to Zeng Huan—was also quite bold: "That was struck by lightning!"
Huan Yue replied innocently, "Of course I know! If it wasn't lightning, did you strike me?"
The man shouted, "The Crown Prince has lost his virtue!"
Huan Yue slapped him across the face, shouting, "Spreading heresy and misleading the public!"
After recovering from their shock, the group prepared to kill the Crown Princess.
Huan Yue possessed divine strength and was very confident, telling everyone else that they were no match for him: "Do you know what thunder is?"
King Zheng asked, "What is thunder?"
Huan Yue glanced at him, thinking, "So handsome, a supporting male character." He then turned to the Emperor and said, "I don't know exactly what thunder is, but it's definitely something. Some people shouldn't mistake ignorance for personality; they just spout nonsense all day long."
The King of Song asked, "What are you holding?"
Huan Yue didn't want to make things up. He opened the box and took out a piece of quicklime.
Zeng Huan quickly tidied himself up and stormed back in a rage!
He had never suffered such a humiliation!
Pei Huanyue must die today!
Huan Yue shoved the lime in front of him.
Zeng Huan was forced to retreat.
A group of men pounced on her as if they wanted to tear the Crown Princess apart.
It was pushed back by a piece of lime.
"Useless!" Huan Yue said rudely.
The Prince of Qi blushed, but he didn't move. What was the Crown Princess doing to him?
Huan Yue, seeing his perfect appearance, asked, "King Qi should know everything, so why does quicklime turn into slaked lime and generate heat when it comes into contact with water?"
Zeng Huan bravely lunged forward again.
Huan Yue turned to him and retorted, "Last night there was a violent storm. I don't know the situation in Sheng'an, but I'm afraid the people are like cucumbers that have been beaten and are waiting to be helped up. You turn a blind eye and are in a hurry to cause trouble! What good are you to the world and to the people?"
Zeng Huan opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood; it was a terrible sight.
Huan Yue put the quicklime aside and picked up the bronze incense burner.
The Imperial Son-in-Law of Huayang chimed in, "Why did Your Highness bring such a rusty incense burner?"
Huan Yue glanced at him and said, "That's a good question: 'Does brother-in-law know why copper rusts?'"
The Prince Consort of Huayang blushed; he didn't know!
The King of Wu asked, "What does this have to do with lightning rods?"
Huan Yue apologized, "King Wu is wise! He saw through it at a glance!"
Look at the King of Wu.
The King of Wu kept a straight face. What had he noticed?
He just wanted to ask the Crown Princess what her concerns about lightning rods had to do with them.
His caution proved advantageous; the Crown Princess, though young, was bold.
Facing the most powerful people in the land, Huan Yue got straight to the point: "I am not familiar with lightning rods, but I have read some records, and they are all related to gold, silver, copper, and iron. If a lightning rod is installed on the roof, the lightning will flow to the ground through the copper and iron. If the copper rusts, won't it become unusable?"
The official from the Eastern Palace reported: "I had people inspect the Jiade Hall and the Lizheng Hall. Some of the roof ridge beasts have copper pieces on them, and some are rusty."
King Song solemnly asked, "So, lightning strikes and anything related to lightning can be avoided?"
Huan Yue said, "People are so smart, they have brains to use."
Grand Secretary Xu said, "Ordinary copper is prone to rusting and should be stored in a dry place."
Huan Yue carefully peeled off a bit of copper rust.
Zeng Huan charged over.
Huan Yue nearly shoved the patina into his eye: "Is this still copper?"
