The birth of two children seemed to speed up the boring days in the womb.

Ying Zheng and Lian'er had to visit their three children every day. They were so busy every day that they even forgot about their previous plans to travel to the great rivers and mountains of Da Qin!

The same goes for Ying Feiyu, who gets up earlier than a chicken every day and goes to the court to listen to the ministers talking about what is available and what is not available!

After the morning court, he had to visit several children and review memorials, leaving him less and less private space!

Ying Zheng said that he disliked the unpleasant nicknames of several children, but he still talked about the seventh and eighth days of the lunar month every day. He was so happy!

Time flies and a month passes.

The two children are already one month old and have gained more weight than before, making them even more lovable.

If Wang Wan and others don't see each other for a day, it seems like something is missing!

Perhaps in order to recuperate her body as soon as possible and continue to give birth to heirs, Yu Ji was extremely obedient during her confinement period.

I drank the tasteless tonic soup as I asked without even frowning.

The mood is not as volatile as it was right after giving birth.

In addition, she is still young. After confinement, her face is rosy and she is fatter than before!

After the imperial doctor diagnosed her pulse, she said that she had almost made up for the loss caused by the birth of twins. She could make slight adjustments to her diet and increase exercise appropriately, and she would be able to fully recover after a while!

The weather was getting warmer at this time, and the willow branches outside had begun to sprout.

Ying Feiyu taught Yu Ji some yoga moves.

This exercise is not too intense, but it can also have a good exercise effect.

At the same time, it can stretch the body lines to prevent her from always saying that she has gained weight after giving birth!

It is now the spring plowing season, and this year the cooperative has added another agricultural machinery called a rotary tiller.

This thing needs to be used in conjunction with a tractor. It can have a good loosening effect. It can also break up the grass roots and corn roots left over from last autumn and winter and turn them into fertilizer to enrich the soil!

"This thing is great! This way, we don't have to dig out those corn roots with a pickaxe in advance!"

"Yes! In the past, just digging these things would have taken ten and a half days. This way, it really saves a lot of time and effort!"

After receiving the news, people rushed to the local cooperative to find out more.

Anyone who has seen a rotary tiller will definitely make a reservation!

Factories are recruiting a lot of workers now, and you can make money by doing anything.

In other words, time is equivalent to money.

Saving time is equivalent to saving money.

Use this money to hire a rotary tiller, which is more than enough!

After those blacksmiths saw the rotary tiller, they slapped their foreheads in frustration, "I can also make this thing, why didn't I think of it before?"

There is not much difficulty in manufacturing a rotary tiller. As long as you understand its structure, a skilled blacksmith can make it!

"Quickly pull it off. If you had to think of everything, wouldn't you have developed a long time ago?"

"Haha! That's right! How can I compare with His Majesty with my wooden head?"

Those things that Ying Feiyu invented before, as long as they had relatively low technical content, were started to be made by private carpenters and blacksmiths.

It also gives them a way to make money!

In addition, some small factories have also been established by the private sector to produce some simple gadgets.

In this regard, Ying Feiyu not only had no restrictions, but also encouraged it.

In the future, as craftsmen become more proficient in their skills, they will definitely be able to come up with more things that are helpful to people’s lives!

However, important things like electricity, trains, and railways are still in his hands, and no one is allowed to build them privately!

If anyone can pull a railway and carry thousands of people, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?

According to the usual practice, Ying Feiyu will choose a day during the spring plowing period to personally lead the ministers to go to the fields for spring plowing, in order to encourage the people!

This year is no exception, the date is set on the tenth day of April.

In this era, there was no Gregorian calendar for later generations, and the days mentioned were all lunar calendars.

If we follow the Gregorian calendar of later generations, it would be mid-May!

At this time, the common people should be almost done with the preparations for farming, except for sowing!

Set a good date and announce it during the morning court, so that all ministries can prepare in advance.

After the morning court, the ministers' legs were trembling.

This is the psychological shadow left by last year’s spring plowing!

In previous years, spring plowing in the fields was just a casual matter, but last year it was really a real spring plowing.

His Majesty drove the tractor and plowed a lot in just a few trips.

They, the ministers, had to follow behind, digging holes and sowing seeds. At the end of the day, their legs were no longer their own!

Now when I hear this word, my legs are still shaking!

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty won't let us walk in the fields all day this year, right?"

"Alas! Who knows! Your Majesty loves the people like a son, so he probably doesn't do it just for show!"

"I really should exercise in advance so that I won't be exhausted on this day...!"

The ministers were studying the matter on their way out of the palace.

Apart from the look of fear, there is also a look of regret on every face!

"Fortunately, it's only one day. Even if you grit your teeth and hold on, you still have to get through it!"

"Yes! Otherwise there is no other way!"

"Go to bed early tonight and eat more tomorrow so as not to work hungry...!"

The date for spring plowing has been set, and even if the ministers are frightened again, they cannot change it and can only make preparations in advance.

But the ones who were most worried were the censors.

They received a heavy beating on the night of spring plowing last year. Until now, they still haven't found out who was responsible for this, let alone why they offended them.

"A certain person will arrange for his servants to wait at the city gate tonight. After everyone goes their separate ways, they will follow a certain person's carriage and escort them all the way to the mansion. I don't believe they will be beaten! You should be prepared when you go back. Don’t get beaten up at your own door again, it will make people laugh if word spreads about it!”

"Don't worry! That's what I planned too, and I will never give those bad guys another chance!"

"I was beaten once last year, so it shouldn't happen this year, right?"

"That's hard to say, it's better to take precautions in advance!"

"Yep……!"

I was beaten last year because I returned to the city too late and it was already dark.

All the ministers were scattered, and only a few of them were together, so they were beaten!

They never walked alone at night again, just to avoid getting beaten.

In broad daylight, with people coming and going, no one would do anything to them, right?

But spring plowing is different. If you don't have enough protection, you have to go back to the city after dark. You must take precautions in advance!

"Okay! Let me make some arrangements when I get back. If those guys still dare to take action, I will definitely catch them all in one fell swoop. I will never let you go lightly!"

"Yep!"

After discussing with the censors at the censorship station, they all got on their carriages and returned to the mansion.
