Leng Palace is adjacent to Taiye Lake, and building a canal to bring in water from Taiye Lake is not a big project, but the sparrow is small but has all the internal organs.
The main water channel of the cold palace is in the shape of a trigram, and it also uses the principle of a windmill. The water flowing in from Taiye Lake goes around the cold palace and finally flows back.
Liang Dong, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, had long wanted to enter the palace to see the irrigation canal that Jiang Shidu was responsible for building. Seeing it with his own eyes was a worthwhile trip. He followed Yang Qing around and nodded frequently.
Liang Dong was amazed when he saw the bustling scene in the medicine field not far away. The women carrying thatch and working in the medicine field were all women wearing fresh Hu clothes.
He had traveled extensively since he was a child and had seen countless things. He could not imagine that such a vigorous state would appear in these criminal women and palace ladies who had been relegated to the cold palace and committed crimes.
"Why do we need these thatches to grow medicinal materials?"
Liang Dong asked curiously: "Eunuch Yang, what are they doing with all this thatch?"
"The weather suddenly turned cold. The little princess asked Qin Tianjian and said that there was going to be frost today, so yesterday the princess specially told us to get some thatch and cover it with artemisia annua."
Eunuch Yang didn't stop and told Mr. Liang a lot about how to cover the grass with thatch to prevent frostbite. He also told Mr. Liang how to cover the seedlings so that they couldn't breathe, otherwise the Artemisia annua would be suffocated to death.
"The sun is now high in the sky. Our family asked them to remove the thatch covering the seedlings to prevent them from crushing the seedlings."
Crops that have been exposed to frost can easily become wilted and freeze to death. This is a good idea.
Liang Dong praised: "Eunuch Yang is very attentive to the artemisia grown by the ten princesses."
"That's right, it's our family's blessing to be able to help the little princess with work. No matter what happens, we have to do this job well."
Eunuch Yang explained: "Using thatch to deal with frost is also an expedient measure. The little princess said that if the weather gets colder, the seedlings will freeze to death, so it is necessary to build a house for them to isolate them from the cold. Isn't this a good idea? Sir, do you want to come into the palace and set up a warm tent?"
He often built houses for people to keep warm, but it was unheard of to build a house with medicinal materials. Liang Dong was very curious about the rumored little princess, and Eunuch Yang took him to the warehouse of Shangyang Palace.
When he entered the warehouse, what Liang Dong saw in front of him was a pile of bamboo and wood, as well as oil paper used to build a house with medicinal materials.
Oily paper is the kind of bast paper used to paper windows. It is waterproof and light-transmitting. However, compared with ordinary window paper, this kind of oily paper seems to be more light-transmitting, almost transparent.
This kind of oil paper is extremely rare. When he was in Jiangnan, he had seen people using this kind of oil paper to paste umbrellas.
Liang Dong got familiar with the materials used to build the house, and asked Yang Qing full of doubts: "I have something unclear. It will take some time to build the greenhouse that the princess mentioned, and it is very likely that it will be destroyed during the construction." There are so few medicinal seedlings, why wait until frost to plant them?”
"That's because it's hard to find oil paper to build a greenhouse!"
Without waiting for Yang Qing to answer Liang Dong's doubts, Li Sixu, who rushed to Shangyang Palace, entered the warehouse: "The best material for building a greenhouse is plastic film, but it can only be replaced with oil paper. The growth of medicinal seedlings requires sunlight. So we must find a kind of light-transmitting oil paper. Sisi tried many oil papers at first, but none were satisfactory. Later, Wang Yuanbao found a kind of light-transmitting oil paper in Jiangnan, which is used to paste umbrellas."
"Currently, this oil paper is thin and tough, and it is the most translucent oil paper I have ever seen!"
Li Sixu walked up to Liang Dong and spread her hands: "That's why the building of the greenhouse has been delayed until now, thank you!"
Liang Dong looked at the eloquent little person in front of him with some surprise. He was stunned for a while, thinking that the little princess in front of him was someone who was praised highly by Jiang Shidu, so there must be something special about her.
So it’s no wonder that she is so eloquent and well-organized!
Liang Dong wanted to ask her what plastic film was at first, but Li Sixu talked a lot and distracted him from what he wanted to ask.
He came back to his senses and greeted Li Sixu: "Your Majesty Liangdong has met the little princess."
Liang Dong?
Li Sixu was impressed by this name.
Because Jiang Shidu mentioned the minister of the Ministry of Industry in front of her, his name pronounced backwards means pillar, and his family background seemed magical to Li Sixu, so she remembered this name.
After thinking about it for a moment, Jiang Shidu had talked to her in the secret room of the Imperial Hospital.
Li Sixu raised her little head and looked at Mr. Liang, who had dark skin and handsome features.
"Your great-grandfather is Liang Xiaoren, the Sinong Shaoqing who supervised the construction of the Daming Palace?"
Liang Dong was stunned: "Exactly!"
"Sisi heard from Mr. Jiang that Mr. Xiaoliang holds an important position in the Ministry of Industry. It seems a bit too humiliating for Sisi to come to the cold palace to build a warm tent for Sisi!"
Li Sixu smiled playfully: "Why kill a chicken with a bull's knife?"
Liang Dong had no idea that the still childish princess would still remember his ancestor's contribution in supervising the construction of the Daming Palace, and would also say that he came to the Leng Palace to help build the greenhouse, and was overusing his talents.
At first, Liang Dong didn't understand why Jiang Shidu was such a fanatical follower of the Ten Princesses?
Hearing these words from the naughty and smiling little princess, Liang Dong realized that the little princess of noble birth should give the humble craftsmen the respect they deserve.
"The malaria medicine developed by the princess grown medicinal materials has benefited many sick people in the capital. It is my great honor that I can be introduced by Mr. Jiang and come to Leng Palace to help build a house."
Liang Donglang smiled and said: "Besides, the drawings that the princess asked Mr. Jiang to show me are very interesting. I may use those icons and measurements when I design the house in the future. Therefore, I want to come to Leng Palace to see it in person."
"As for the effect of the greenhouse, I think it is very miraculous. In addition to the drawings given by the princess, I also want to discuss it with the princess on the spot."
Liang Dong discussed with her: "Can you ask the little princess to move to the medicine field?"
"You're welcome, Mr. Liang, let's go!"
Seeing the little princess who hit it off with Liang Dong and chatted happily as she walked out of the warehouse, Yang Qing was very discerning and immediately ordered people to move the wood, bamboo and oil paper used to build the greenhouse next to the medicine field.
Li Sixu thought that all her problems would be solved when she met an expert like Liang Dong.
Moreover, Liang Dong was worthy of being the queen of everyone. He acted extremely carefully. When directing and supervising the construction of the greenhouse, he always told the craftsmen to be careful and not to trample on the medicinal seedlings she planted.
If it is necessary to occupy an area where medicinal seedlings have been planted, they will negotiate with Li Sixu to transplant the medicinal seedlings elsewhere.
This will not only ensure that the seedlings are not damaged, but also enable quick and orderly construction.
In half the afternoon, half of the skeleton of the medicine field had been set up and oiled paper began to be put on it. Li Sixu estimated that he worked so neatly that the greenhouse she wanted could be set up in two or three days.
Because she was going to the Nanxun Hall to pay her respects to the queen, Li Sixu made an appointment with Liang Dong to set up a greenhouse the next day, and told Yang Qing and Xu Cairen to cover the area without a greenhouse with thatch at night. Frost.
As soon as she came out of the cold palace, she saw the prince walking towards her carrying a food basket.
Li Sixu was surprised: "Why did the prince brother come to Shangyang Palace?"
