Time travel! The little princess came down the mountain and made a scene in the palace
Chapter 196 Ice Sculpture City
Time passed quickly and it was already March, but the weather in Zheng State was still very cold. Today, Xi Lingxue and Mo Yan were walking in the back garden and saw that the water in the pond was still freezing.
Suddenly I remembered that when I was in modern times, I always wanted to go to Harbin Ice Sculpture World, but never had the time to go.
Since the weather in Zheng State is cold, it would be better to build an ice sculpture world in Zheng State to bring some fun to the ancient people. They can have fun and make money at the same time, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
The construction of the Ice Sculpture World in Zheng State will surely attract wealthy young men and ladies from all over the world to visit, and it will also boost the economy of Zheng State, which is a win-win situation.
People in ancient times had little entertainment and went to bed after dinner at night. Xi Lingxue asked the craftsmen to carve mahjong out of jade. She wanted to bring mahjong back to ancient times.
Xi Lingxue stared at the ice in a daze, "Wife, what's wrong with you?"
She seemed not to have heard Mo Yan's words. She leaped up to the ice and walked back and forth. The ice was quite solid, which gave her more confidence in building the ice sculpture world.
Mo Yan saw her flying onto the ice, and worried that she would fall into the water, he quickly flew to her side and was ready to take her ashore at any time.
"Wife, do you want to skate?"
"No, I wanted to test whether the ice was solid or not, so I came up to take a look."
"Tell me and I'll try. What if the ice is not solid and you fall into the water?"
"Sir, when will the weather in Zheng warm up and the ice melt?"
"What would you like to do at the end of March under normal circumstances?"
"Are there any mountains or rivers within a hundred miles of Xinzheng or somewhere close to Xinzheng? I need such a place."
Mo Yan asked curiously: "What do you want a place like this for?"
"I plan to build an ice sculpture city there, and build an inn next to the mountain. I can see the mountains, water and ice sculpture city from the room."
"What is an ice sculpture and what do you need it for?"
"It is to use thick ice to carve various patterns for people to appreciate and play with."
"This is the first time I've heard of an ice sculpture city, but I believe whatever you say. I'll immediately order people to look for such a place around Xinzheng."
"Thank you for your support, husband. Anyway, why don't we just skate instead of standing on the ice? Do you still remember when you first learned to skate on the Penglai River? You and Second Senior Brother were both unstable at the beginning, and you only learned how to skate after falling many times in a row."
"Yes! It was a great time back then. I just thought about improving my martial arts, going hunting in the mountains, fishing in the rivers, and nothing else."
"Now that I have a noble status, I have to be on guard against this and that. It's really tiring."
"Everyone grows up, and this is the trouble and price of growing up."
"But it's great to have you by my side in such a calculation. I don't have to fight alone. I feel relieved to leave it to you behind."
The two of them danced on the ice like two light butterflies, their figures flickering in the sunlight, contrasting with the cold light of the ice.
The two of them were wearing mink cloaks that fluttered in the wind as they danced. One red and one black was particularly eye-catching, which made Leng Sha and the others sigh in admiration.
"The two masters are a perfect match. You will never find such a perfect match of talented men and beautiful women in this world."
"Yes! They have been childhood sweethearts, and have become both talented in literature and martial arts when they grow up, making others envious."
After returning, Xi Lingxue began to draw the design, and Mo Yan sent people to look for such a place.
Soon four days later, the guards came back to report that there was such a place in Weizhou, backed by mountains and close to the Weichuan waters, which was exactly what Xi Lingxue was looking for.
After Mo Yan left the court, they ordered someone to take them there. Taking a carriage would take too much time, so they rode on horseback.
We arrived in Weizhou the next afternoon and walked to the suburbs. What we saw before us was like a landscape painting that made us unable to take our eyes off.
Green mountains stand tall, green trees form shades, and clear streams flow between the mountains.
The water and mountains complement each other, creating a tranquil and magnificent picture.
On the edge of the mountain, there is a vast expanse of water, sparkling like a huge mirror, with green trees and clear streams flowing between the mountains.
"It's so beautiful! This is the place I'm looking for. I want to build an ice sculpture city here and make it a tourist attraction to increase income for the people around here."
"This place is picturesque, with clear water and green mountains. Even without construction, the scenery is charming. After construction, it will be even more beautiful, and people from all over the world will come here to visit."
"That's what I thought. I'll do it right away. When I get back, I'll report to my father and ask him to send people from the Ministry of Works to build the city and invite local people to work there, which will also increase their income."
"When the project is completed by the end of the year, we will order craftsmen to carve ice sculptures to attract tourists."
"Wife, have you ever thought about the fact that ice melts into water in the summer? What if so much water floods the inn?"
"So we need the Ministry of Industry to design the drainage ditch. When the ice melts in the summer, the water will flow directly into the Weichuan area. When the water freezes in the winter, we will chisel the ice into pieces and bring them up to carve them into various shapes for tourists to enjoy."
"Wife, you are so smart. Go back and report to the emperor and ask him to order the Ministry of Works to come and start the construction."
"Walk."
They returned to the city and went straight to the palace, "Your son pays homage to His Majesty, and your daughter-in-law pays homage to His Majesty, Father."
"Crown Princess, I heard from Yan'er that you are planning to build an ice sculpture city, is that right?"
She took out her design from the space and said, "Reporting to the emperor, I have found a place to build the ice sculpture city. It is next to the waters of Weichuan."
"This is my daughter-in-law's design. Please take a look. I guarantee that once the ice sculpture city is completed, it will definitely attract many tourists to visit Zheng State and bring great help to Zheng State's economy."
The emperor looked at the design drawing. Although he didn't know what an ice sculpture city was, he thought the design drawing looked good but it would cost a lot of money, which made him hesitant.
"Crown Princess, your father agrees with your opinion, but you should know that the treasury of Zheng is empty. If we invest a huge amount of gold and silver in building this ice sculpture city, what if there is a natural disaster or man-made disaster in the country? How can your father be worthy of the people of Zheng if he cannot provide disaster relief?"
"Father, your daughter-in-law will pay for the money, but we need people from the Ministry of Works to go over and do the construction. Such a large project must be completed by experienced workers, only then will your daughter-in-law feel at ease."
"After the opening, my daughter-in-law is willing to take out 30% of the profits to replenish the national treasury."
The emperor was immediately delighted when he heard this. He was more than happy to hear such a good thing.
"Okay, okay, it's a blessing for Yan'er to marry you, and it's also a blessing for Zheng. The construction of the ice sculpture city will definitely attract many tourists and boost the economy of Zheng."
"Father, please summon the Minister of Works here immediately."
"Thank you, Father."
"Mr. Chen, summon the Minister of Works Du Zhong to see the emperor."
"Old slave obeys the order."
Lord Du came over quickly and said, "Your humble servant pays respect to His Majesty."
"Master Du, please stand up."
The eunuch handed the blueprint to Lord Du, who took a look and his eyes lit up immediately. "May I ask who drew this, Your Majesty? It's so amazing. I have never seen such a picture before."
"This was painted by my daughter-in-law, the Crown Princess."
"Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."
"Master Du, please don't be polite. There are still some details that need to be improved on this picture. I'll have to trouble you again, Master Du."
"My dear Crown Princess, I am very honored to be able to serve you."
"That's great. I'll leave this matter to Lord Du."
"I obey your order. If there is anything I don't understand, please enlighten me, Princess."
"As long as Lord Du asks, I will tell you everything I know."
"Thank you, Princess. I will do my best to complete this project."
"So good."
