Traveling through the millennium: creating a prosperous dynasty with you

"Don't worry, Father. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Zhenzhen and I have discussed this. Once the current situation is stabilized, we plan to build all of Anguo Road into cement roads. No matter if it rains or snows, the road surface will not become bumpy. By then, no matter where you go, the time on the road will be much shorter, and the journey will be very flat and bump-free."

Emperor: "Is that true? What kind of road is this cement road?"

An Chen: "The so-called cement road is not just water and mud, there is a real formula, and she plans to give the formula to the second brother for production and management. Cement can not only pave roads, but also has many other uses, and it is very strong. You will know when you see the product."

Queen: "Chen'er, you said to give it to the second brother? Did you find the second brother?"

An Chen: "Don't worry, mother. You and father come back with me. I have a surprise for you!"

The Emperor: "Then go ahead. I haven't left the palace for many years."

Xu Zhen parked the helicopter at the martial arts training ground of Prince Chen's mansion. Hearing the roar, everyone in the mansion rushed over. When the four people got off the helicopter, they really scared the people in Prince Chen's mansion. The emperor came out in a hurry and didn't have time to change his imperial robe. The bright yellow robe reminded everyone to kneel down and kowtow. The second prince and his people were studying new dishes in the kitchen, and they came relatively late. After the emperor asked everyone to calm down, he walked out of the martial arts training ground, and everyone followed him.

An Chen took Xu Zhen and the Emperor and Empress into the living room. As soon as they sat down, the Second Prince hurried over. Seeing that the Second Prince was safe and sound, the Emperor and Empress finally felt relieved. The Empress stood up to greet the Second Prince, grabbed his hand and looked him up and down, "Is Shuo'er injured?"

"The child is fine, thanks to my sister-in-law who saved the child."

The emperor and empress nodded gratefully to Xu Zhen.

The emperor said: "Miss Xu not only saved all the people of Anguo, but now she has also saved my Shuoer. I and the people of Anguo owe Miss Xu too much."

Xu Zhen: "He is An Chen's brother, which means he is my brother. Your Majesty, you don't have to be polite."

The second prince: "Father, I am one family with my sister-in-law, why are you being so polite? Father and sister-in-law gave me a lot of good things, you can taste them later."

Emperor: "Okay. I'll wait."

The second prince said goodbye and went to prepare food. The queen rarely saw her youngest son, so she followed his lead. In the past few days, the second prince asked five chefs to choose six dishes each, and they were almost ready. He was thinking of asking someone to let his father, the emperor, and his mother taste them, and fortunately they all came today.

Xu Zhen was a little tired, so An Chen asked the housekeeper to accompany the emperor. He wanted to personally send her back to rest, but Xu Zhen refused. The emperor twitched his mouth helplessly, saying that the son was no longer under the control of his father!

An Chen wanted to tell the emperor something, so they got up and went to the study. An Chen told the emperor the rumors he had heard, and the emperor was so angry that he blew his beard. "Who slandered me like this?"

"Father, please calm down. This is probably related to the people of Xishu. I have asked people to investigate. The most urgent task is to suppress the rumors. We have discussed a plan. Father, can you listen to it?"

"Chen'er, just say it directly."

"Father, do you still remember how the Japanese city came about?"

"Of course I remember. It suddenly appeared after the earth dragon turned over. It was a gift from God."

"Now the entire Anguo cannot raise food. If the gods give father some food at this time, will the people still believe the rumors?"

"What Chen'er said is a good idea, but the food. It's already the fourth day, and the civil and military officials in the court haven't found a single grain of food. Where can I get the food?"

"Father, you don't have to worry about this. The food has been prepared for you."

"Oh? Are you talking about Miss Xu?"

"It's her and it's not her."

"how do I say this?"

An Chen told the emperor the whole process of getting grain from the Qian family farm that day. The emperor was surprised that the goddess had such great ability, and even more surprised that the Qian family had hidden so much grain?

The emperor angrily slammed his hand on the table, causing his hand to hurt. "How can this be absurd? How can the Qian family be so bold and reckless? Is it related to the third brother?"

"There is no definite evidence yet. We have found Chen Xu in Dongfu City this time. We returned to the capital this time to report back. Secondly, we want to hand over the grain from the Qian family farm to the national treasury to suppress the rumors and solve the food problem for the people of Anguo. Thirdly, we want to tell our father that we plan to go to the deep mountains of Dongyi."

"Dongyi Mountains? What are you going there for?"

"The second child was found deep in the mountains. I always felt that there was something strange there, so I wanted to go and take a look."

"That's Dongyi. Besides, it's deep in the mountains and old forests, full of dangers. We can send someone to investigate first."

"Father, don't worry. Zhenzhen will follow you. It's completely safe."

"Okay, what are your plans for your marriage? The Imperial Master wants you to get married as soon as possible."

"Now is a time of trouble, let's wait until this period is over. The national treasury is empty now, is there enough money in your father's private treasury to pay the betrothal gift?"

The emperor was dismayed when he heard this. "Alas! It's my incompetence. I've been on the throne for 30 years, but now the treasury is empty."

"Your Majesty, don't blame yourself. I have already asked people to start preparing. Your Majesty, please don't tell anyone about the grain found on the Qian family's farm. We will store the grain in the warehouse before we leave for Dongyi."

"Okay, Chen'er, there are more and more unfamiliar faces appearing in the capital these days. I'm afraid they are here for the goddess. It's better to get married as soon as possible."

"Okay, let's discuss it further."

"Report, Your Majesty, King Shuo has sent someone to invite you to dinner."

"Father, please go and have your meal first. I'll go get Zhenzhen."

"Okay, Chen'er, go ahead. You must treat such a good daughter-in-law well."

"Don't worry, father. I will take my leave."

The emperor followed his guards to the dining hall, where the table was already filled with dishes that had never been seen in the palace. After the emperor sat down, the queen and the second prince sat down one after another.

The emperor asked the second prince: "Didn't Chen'er say that Chen Xu was at home? This child hasn't been back to the capital for a long time, and he has made great contributions to our country. Go and call him over."

The guards took orders and went to call Chen Xu. After a while, An Chen brought Xu Zhen and the guards brought Chen Xu to the dining hall. Xu Zhen was a modern person who was not afraid of the imperial power, so she sat down naturally. Chen Xu did not dare to eat at the same table with the emperor and the empress. After greeting several people, he was about to leave, but was pulled by the second prince and pressed to sit on the chair.

The emperor told him not to be so reserved and just eat like an ordinary family. An Chen gave him a relaxing look, and seeing Xu Zhen beside him was calm, he calmed himself. They were reserved for a while, and when they took the first bite of food, the second and third bites followed, and they couldn't stop. They couldn't stop at all. It was spicy and sizzling. The table full of delicacies made them forget the distinction between the monarch and his subjects, and they could not eat more than three times. The emperor and the queen were so full that they rubbed their stomachs, and the dishes on the table were swept away. The happiest one was the second prince, and his hard work over the past few days was not in vain. He said to Xu Zhen, "What do you think, sister-in-law?"

"It's quite authentic. Just look at the table full of empty plates. It must be a big seller."

"With my sister-in-law's help, I feel relieved. We will start working tomorrow."
