Quick Wear Peace

Chapter 501: Starry Sky 17

Yuan Shen touched the place where he was kissed, and a sweet smile appeared on his cheek.

My heart felt as sweet as if I had eaten honey, and colorful fireworks kept going off in my mind. I stroked my cheek, and the soft touch just now seemed to be imprinted on my cheek.

As soon as Mo Yu came in, he saw a silly smile on his young master's face and twitched his lips speechlessly.

Now she really seems like a girl out there who is caught up in a beautiful fantasy.

He retreated quietly, as if he had never come in.

Yuan Shen moved very quickly. It didn't take long before Yuan Shen brought An Ning to the study.

Watching Yuan Pei observing the waterwheel on the table with great interest, he wanted to find out what principle it used.

But he didn't study this trade, and couldn't find out what principle was used, so he gave up.

But the woman next to Yuan Shen sat back and looked towards Yuan Shen. Yuan Shen looked at An Ning worriedly, and only after receiving An Ning's reassuring look did he slowly leave the room.

Yuan Pei saw the interaction between the two children clearly and could tell that Shanjian had fallen in love with this woman.

An Ning bowed gently.

"You made the water tank?"

Looking at the young girl, you would never tell that the waterwheel was made by her hands.

"No." An Ning shook her head gently.

"My apprentice did it."

"Oh?" Yuan Pei didn't expect her to say that. He thought she would take all the credit for herself.

An Ning explained to Yuan Pei the role of the waterwheel, "So as long as we have it, it will greatly save manpower and material resources, and greatly improve the efficiency of agricultural irrigation."

After An Ning finished her story, Yuan Pei slowly said, "What do you want?"

"Don't I want to contribute to the country?" An Ning was not suppressed by Yuan Pei's momentum at all, and said lightly.

"is it?"

Yuan Pei didn't believe that there really were such selfless people.

Seeing his face full of doubt, An Ning didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I have a lot of good things that benefit the country and the people. I just want to see the emperor."

Only in this way can she have the capital to negotiate with the emperor.

"Do you really suspect that I want to take credit for your work?"

Yuan Pei said with some disdain.

He simply didn't bother to take any credit for her contribution.

"Master Yuan has misunderstood. I want to see the emperor for other matters. I promise that I will not harm the Yuan family."

An Ning knew immediately that he had misunderstood.

Yuan Pei looked at An Ning deeply and finally nodded.

He brought An Ning to the palace, looked at the emperor above, patted his body, and said, "Your Highness."

"Why don't you kneel?" the emperor said slowly.

"It's not that I don't want to kneel, it's that I have something to hide."

An Ning looked embarrassed.

"Oh? What's your secret?" The emperor instantly became interested.

"When I was young, I knelt down to worship someone for some reason, but that person died not long after. At first, I only knelt down to worship my father and mother, but they died not long after.

I knelt down to others, and soon all of them died. From then on, I never knelt down to anyone again, for fear that something like this would happen again. "

An Ning's eyes were filled with tears as she seemed to be thinking about the past days, and her face was full of distress.

"I am just worrying too much. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven and there will definitely be nothing wrong."

An wiped away her tears and was about to kneel down.

Yuan Pei, who was standing next to him, grabbed An Ning and said, "It would be fine if this was fake, but if it was true, his family would be finished."

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Yuan Pei said immediately.

The emperor didn't believe it at first, but when he saw Yuan Pei begging desperately beside him, he had to nod.

An Ning took out the best waterwheel and used his eloquent speech to fool... no, explain to the emperor.

When the emperor took out Cheng Shaoshang's other works, he did not expect that a little girl could have such skills.

"You're such a traitor."

As soon as An Ning came in, she heard Xiao Yuanyi's stern voice.

Cheng Shaoshang knelt on the ground with slightly red eyes.

"You can't say that casually, General Xiao."

When Cheng Shaoshang heard the familiar voice, she turned around and saw her master walking in against the light, like a god who had saved her.

Originally, no matter how wronged Cheng Shaoshang was, he wanted to have a good talk with Xiao Yuanyi and had no intention of crying.

But after seeing the master coming, she felt wronged all over, tears flowed down her face involuntarily, and she came to An Ning with a wronged look, holding An Ning's arm, "Master~"

"Well, didn't the master say that everything is up to the master?"

An Ning touched Cheng Shaoshang's head comfortingly, "Who are you?"

Xiao Yuanyi looked at An Ning sternly, very dissatisfied. She was disciplining her own daughter, so what could an outsider say?

"I am Ni Niu's master. Ni Niu is a poor child. When I first met Ni Niu, she was kidnapped. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to see this child."

An Ning held Cheng Shaoshang's hand and looked at Xiao Yuanyi. "When I first met Nianni, she was so thin and frail. She lived alone in a dilapidated yard with no one to take care of her. I was still wondering which irresponsible parent would be so cruel to abandon their child to live alone in a dilapidated yard, with poor food and clothes."

"It turns out to be General Xiao."

An looked Xiao Yuanyi up and down and sneered.

Xiao Yuanyi herself had a bad temper. She was already very angry about Cheng Shaoshang's disobedience, and with An Ning's sarcasm, her anger continued to rise.

An Ning was not afraid of her at all. She looked at Cheng Shaoshang carefully and asked softly if she was hurt.

"Mother." Chengsong pulled Xiao Yuanyi's sleeve and said, "What this young lady said is not wrong."

Cheng Song's words added fuel to the fire.

The eunuch behind watched the show for a long time and no one noticed him. When he saw Xiao Yuanyi was about to get angry, he had to speak.

This is the person the emperor has high hopes for, and nothing can happen to him.

"Cheng Shaoshang accepted the order."

Cheng Shaoshang followed the correct etiquette and was not at all unlearned as Xiao Yuanyi said.

"Cheng Shaoshang accepted the order."

The people behind all knelt down in silence.

"The Emperor, by the Will of Heaven, proclaims that Cheng Shaoshang, a loyal and upright man, has invented a waterwheel that benefits the country and the people and relieves the emperor's worries. He is hereby granted the title of Princess Yi'an and a reward of 1,000 taels of silver. This is my decree."

"Princess Yi'an, please accept the order."

The eunuch handed the imperial edict to Cheng Shaoshang with a smile.

"Your servant accepts the order." Cheng Shaoshang took the imperial edict.

An Ning took out the purse from her bosom and put it in her father-in-law's hand, "Thank you for your help, father-in-law."
