In the backyard of the palace, a red candle trickled down. The bright, flickering candlelight projected a thin, strange figure on the window.
The woman in red's face was as white as jade, with two blushes appearing in waves, and there was a trace of heroic and bright charm lingering in the corners of her eyebrows and eyes.
There is an inexhaustible capable and unrestrained style in his movements and movements.
"Your Majesty, it's late at night, it's time to take a rest." Qin Hongxue picked up a cup of cheese tea, walked forward slowly, and said in a soft voice.
Yue Hongling's eyebrows were delicate and picturesque, her starry eyes sparkling, and she said softly: "His Royal Highness sent a message, saying that he would come over tonight. I'll wait a little longer. Is Xun'er asleep?"
Qin Hongxue whispered: "Young Master has fallen asleep."
"The young master was very happy when he heard that His Highness was coming tonight. He held on for a while and finally fell asleep."
Xiao Yi has been very busy recently.
Because of the development of Daqian, after several years of recuperation and recuperation after the war, a very large amount of capital has been accumulated.
At this time, you can also use your hands and feet to fight.
Many things also need him to check and implement, and he also needs him to give small talks to the ministers in the court from time to time to let them understand the rationale for doing so and let them understand the future development path.
Otherwise, how can it develop well if the officials in the DPRK and China are confused.
Yue Hongling furrowed her smoky eyebrows, her starry eyes were bright and clear, and she said quietly: "Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be a wise king."
Xiao Di was so majestic, courageous, and capable back then.
But later.
Still slowly became arrogant, and began to be idle and indifferent to government affairs.
Looking at Xiao Yi today, it is obvious that he has built Daqian into an unprecedented prosperous era.
The people are already living a life without worries about food and clothing.
He also wanted to let the people live a better life, and he also wanted to work hard to develop the iron horse train to make it more convenient for the people to travel from south to north.
This man doesn't look like an emperor at all, but more like the father of the common people.
Qin Hongxue raised her eyes to look at Yue Hongling's willow-browed eyebrows and starry eyes, which contained joy, and said softly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has great ambitions. What he sees is what we can't see a hundred years from now."
Yue Hongling's beautiful jade cheeks blushed slightly, and she said with emotion: "Yes, he can see further, probably because he has read a lot of books by sages that we have not read. His extensive knowledge is unmatched by anyone in the world." It is within reach, so no one can see or imagine what Daqian will be like ten, thirty, fifty, or a hundred years from now.”
"His Highness has seen it, so he must do it too."
Qin Hongxue looked at the graceful Yue Hongling and sighed to herself, with some pride and a bit of envy in her heart.
This is how a loving couple should be in this world.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only an unprecedented wise king, but he is also a very good husband and a very good father.
Whether it's Xiao Yan in the East Palace or Xiao Xun in the palace, they can handle a bowl of water equally.
I would never say that I only like Xiao Yan and not Xiao Xun.
And because of Yue Hongling's identity, in order to continue the inheritance of Prince Yong'an, the god of the army.
If the child in Yue Hongling's belly is a boy, he will be adopted.
Xiao Xun will also inherit the royal title.
For a prince to be able to do this, he must have set an example for those who come after him.
Thinking of what happened to the Prince of the Prison State before the Prison State existed, one can understand why the Prince of the Prison State, Xiao Yi, did what he did.
Brothers, friends and brothers.
Now we can see it not only in His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness King Yan, but also in the future Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun.
At this moment, the maidservant's surprised and respectful voice came from outside: "Your Highness."
Hearing this, Yue Hongling turned her head away, smiled slightly, and turned to look at the dark and yellow-robed Crown Prince Xiao Yi who opened the cotton curtain and entered the wing.
"I'm sorry, I was a little late in the political hall just now because of the discussion on how to implement the new cement building," Xiao Yi said warmly.
Yue Hongling stared at it with bright starry eyes and said softly: "Has it been settled yet?"
"We can only pilot each state now to build cement buildings first. Only after they are built and everyone sees them, will they choose whether to buy them or live in them." Xiao Yi said softly.
Yue Hongling nodded and said: "It should be so."
Xiao Yi came closer, held the girl's slender catkin, and felt the delicate skin of the tentacles. He stared at the bright eyes that were looking forward to Shen Fei, and said softly: "There are really too many things to deal with recently. If you feel bored, Now, you can go out of the city for a walk. A large station is being built in the southeast of the city to serve as the first stop for the iron horse train in the future."
Yue Hongling replied: "Fortunately, I'm reading books, practicing calligraphy, and Xun'er is with me, so I'm not too bored."
"It's still under construction over there, but I don't like to join in the fun now."
Xiao Yi stretched out his hand to gently caress Yue Hongling's big belly and said softly: "Well, it's getting late, let's rest."
At this moment, Qin Hongxue and the maid brought a copper basin of hot water, which was steaming like a reflecting candle.
Yue Hongling continued: "Is the iron horse train you mentioned about to be built soon?"
Xiao Yidao: "Well, after two years, when the rails are laid, it will be officially launched on the road, but the speed will not be very fast. Fortunately, it will be able to pull more goods than horse-drawn carriages."
“In the beginning, freight was actually more cost-effective.”
“If people want to travel by iron horse train, it is better to take a steam locomotive.”
Nowadays, after the vigorous research and development of the general, the speed of steam locomotives is also much faster. Compared with horse-drawn carriages, the fastest speed is indeed not as good as horse-drawn carriages. But fortunately, steam locomotives are not tired, can travel day and night, and the speed is even. .
In the case of a carriage, the horses will get tired. Not only are they tired, but they will also be hungry and have to stop for feeding.
Steam locomotives have many more advantages than horse-drawn carriages.
After the steam locomotive was mass-produced, the rich and powerful wanted to buy one and travel more conveniently.
Xiao Yi was thinking of ways to start earning money from those maritime merchants.
After all, they do have money in their hands, and they can just leave it there, so why not find ways to make money from them.
Tax increases, if raised too much, will actually make them resist.
The court can make money from them through food, clothing, housing and transportation, such as after the iron horse train comes out.
Naturally, you have to haul goods, and the toll is quite a lot.
All in all, it is definitely cheaper than a carriage.
It’s cheaper, it’s also money!
Of course, this would make it impossible for horse-drawn carriage traders to make money.
However, there must always be an escort agency.
This most primitive post office can still be established.
