Chapter 334: Seeking a title? Seeking death?
Yin Zhengnan was even happier about this. He accompanied Gu Suiyu at every turn, and told everyone he met that he was lucky to marry Suiyu, which was why he was able to have twins as his first child. He also told everyone that Gu Suiyu was the lucky star of his Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
This time when she went back to her parents' home, Yin Zhengnan was by her side, and he even personally helped her get in and out of the car. He originally wanted to carry her in his arms, but Gu Suiyu thought it didn't look good, so Yin Zhengnan gave up.
The people around wanted to laugh at Gu Sui Yu, but instead of seeing the joke, they ended up getting a mouthful of dog food.
Su Jin was even more surprised that she was going to be a grandmother.
Su Jin was very happy. The family had a happy reunion dinner. After everyone left, Su Jin called Yuhuan and asked her to prepare new clothes for the children.
Because they didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl, they made two sets of clothes for boys and two sets of clothes for girls, and also made some gold and silver jewelry, combs, abacus and other things, waiting for Gu Suiyu to give birth.
However, Gu Suiyu did not receive the news of her giving birth, but instead received the emperor's edict appointing the fourth prince Zhao Huaiguang as the crown prince.
Six years have passed since he met the male protagonist. Xie Huaiguang became Zhao Huaiguang and now he is the crown prince.
Su Jin listened to the news quietly, his face unusually calm.
According to the original book, Xie Huaiguang inherited the throne within three months of becoming the crown prince.
It wasn't that something happened to Zhao Jingcheng, but that Zhao Jingcheng abdicated the throne and no longer served as emperor.
Everyone is making way for the male protagonist.
Su Jin felt more and more emotional, and she hadn't seen Xie Huaiguang for a long time.
Although they haven't seen each other for a long time, I'm sure the male protagonist will not forget her. She is also someone who has shown her face in front of the strongest BOSS, so I'm sure her second half of life should be as stable as a rock.
Su Jin was complacent, but he didn't know that some people were plotting something bigger.
After Zhao Huaiguang became the crown prince, he became even more diligent.
This year, the grain seeds were finally fully promoted throughout Da Zhou.
Corn and potatoes can only be found in the capital for now, but I believe that in time they will be able to cover the entire Zhou Dynasty just like the improved wheat seeds.
By then, everyone in the people will be able to eat their fill, wouldn’t that be a happy thing?
On the other hand, Chen Hong’s bicycle was officially modified and finally officially put into use in the army.
Su Jin had seen it once in Gu Zixuan's house. This thing was very similar to the bicycles of later generations. The seat should be made of leather, very soft, and had a shock-absorbing effect. Even when passing through mountain roads, it would not be too bumpy. The wheels were also improved and were wear-resistant and shock-absorbing.
Bicycles are easy to make, but the details in the later stage are very difficult to handle. Chen Hong also collaborated with many people to make the bicycle into this shape.
Zhao Jingcheng naturally commended Chen Hong and promoted him to the Ministry of Works as a fourth-rank assistant minister of the Ministry of Works.
When Chen Hong arrived at the Ministry of Industry, he was like a fish returning to the ocean. He felt like a fish in water and was extremely happy.
As soon as he got the official position, he went to pay a visit to Su Jin. The main reason was that Su Jin had first given him the inspiration for the bicycle, and now all this was also thanks to Su Jin. However, the emperor only rewarded him, so he didn't feel comfortable about it. As soon as he took office, he immediately prepared a gift.
Su Jin accepted it calmly. Facing Chen Hong's eager gaze, Su Jin suddenly said, "All the tenants in the farm want to leave and go home to farm. I am short of manpower on my farm. Since Hong can build a self-propelled car, I wonder if he can build a plow that can plow the land by itself?"
To put it bluntly, Su Jin wants automated farming equipment. Grain production is in surplus, so isn't it time for the Great Zhou to industrialize? Hmm?
Chen Hong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, it's good to come to my aunt's place, my aunt always gives me a lot of new inspirations, now that the self-driving car has been built, I was worried about having nothing fun to do, and look, isn't there a job assigned to me?
"Nephew knows, nephew will study it carefully!"
After hearing this, Su Jin nodded with relief.
How should I put it? She's not really looking forward to it. After all, it's not something that can be made in a short period of time. It would be great if she could see a steam locomotive in her lifetime.
But now, it feels great to change history. I wonder what the world situation would be like if the Great Zhou had been the first to enter industrialization?
Chen Hong put down the gift and left quickly. His mind was completely focused on inventions and creations.
The Chen family, who had been banished from the capital, finally looked up to their eldest son this time. Chen Huailiang wrote to him asking him to serve the country diligently. Xu also expressed her longing for her son and was thinking about when to return to the capital to see Chen Hong. As for Chen Xinlian, she had already married someone else, but because of Gu Ziyun, she did not marry very well. Now she probably regrets not marrying Gu Zixuan, because he is now the Duke of Protector of the Country.
If she had married Gu Zixuan at the beginning, there would be no Princess Mingyu now, and she would have been the wife of the Duke of Protectorate.
After Zhao Huaiguang became the crown prince, the first thing Gu Zilu did was to go and take a look at the courtyard given by the elders of the Su clan. He also asked people to tidy up the courtyard and stockpile food and drinks.
Gu Zilu felt that it was always right for him to be cautious. Although he was already a crown prince and didn't know when he would become emperor, he still thought it was better to be safe than sorry.
The consequence of this was that three months later, Zhao Jingcheng announced his abdication and handed over the throne to Zhao Huaiguang. However, less than one in ten people in the court opposed this.
He hasn't become emperor yet, but he has already won over the entire court. It can only be said that Zhao Huaiguang is very capable.
After the coronation ceremony, Zhao Huaiguang became the real emperor.
Under the candlelight, Gu Zilu frowned.
He was not sure whether Zhao Huaiguang still had his mother in his heart. After all, so many years had passed and Zhao Huaiguang hadn't even seen his mother in recent years. However, this man was good at forbearance and had a heavy mind. In order to prevent any trouble before it happens, he must take action first.
"Zi Lu, why did you come to see me so late at night?"
Gu Zixuan waved away his attendants, leaving only the two brothers in the study. The hot tea was still steaming, but Gu Zilu was in no mood to drink it.
"Brother, tomorrow is the first day of the new emperor's accession to the throne."
"?"
Gu Zixuan was confused: "Then?"
"Brother, I have an unwelcome request. Tomorrow morning, the new emperor will definitely grant amnesty to the whole nation and reward meritorious officials. You have the closest relationship with the emperor, so why not ask for a title from him?"
Gu Zixuan looked at his brother in surprise. He thought Gu Zilu was crazy.
He is now the Duke of Protector of the Country, and has also married the retired emperor's favorite youngest daughter. He has received too many benefits and praises. Now, he still wants a title?
I usually thought that Lao Wu was quite smart, why is he acting stupid now?
What's going on? Does he feel that he is not yet great enough to overshadow his master, so he decided to add some drama to himself on the first day of the new emperor's accession to the throne? ?
Are you crazy? Are you looking for death?
