"Your Majesty, this is 'pinhole imaging'. Light travels in a straight line. The scenery outside the window shines in through the small hole in the window. The light above shines along a straight line to the top of the screen, and the light below shines along a straight line to the bottom of the screen. In this way, the scenery outside the window is naturally inverted."

Everyone: “Oh~”

Although I didn’t understand it, I was deeply shocked!

"So, the woman in the story happened to have a small hole in her house, and the time and place were right, so the scene before her husband's death was reflected on the wall?"

Miao Nanfeng asked.

"That's right! Your Majesty is absolutely right." Tang Yiran bowed and replied.

"Great! Great!" The emperor also clapped his hands and exclaimed.

The Queen smiled and said, "I am willing to lose this question. Seeing this magnificent scene is worth the trip. I won't be so unlucky in the next one, right?"

Prince Yong looked at Miao Nanfeng twirling her fan in a frivolous manner and said, "The questions I came up with are naturally exquisite, so the Queen should be careful!"

The emperor said, "It is already lunch time. Why don't we continue in the afternoon? The queen has arranged the meal. Please move to the Tingyu Pavilion."

Then the emperor said to his highness and his ministers: "My dear ministers, follow me to the Tingyu Pavilion."

All of a sudden, everyone followed the emperor to Tingyu Pavilion, which was a complex of pavilions and towers with a lotus pond in the middle, filled with the fragrance of lotus.

Mountain spring water is introduced into the top of the pavilion. The spring water gurgles on the roof of the pavilion and falls into the corresponding stone toads' mouths from the eaves around the pavilion, making a crisp sound.

Each toad has a different internal structure, and the water drops dripping into its mouth create different tones.

Listening carefully, it turns out to be a beautiful tune.

"Your Majesty, all is well!" When Queen Zhang Miaoyin saw the emperor coming in, she hurried forward to pay her respects.

The emperor helped the queen up and said, "The queen has worked hard in organizing this banquet."

The emperor pointed at Miao Nanfeng and introduced her to the queen: "This is Miao Nanfeng, the queen of Bimu Kingdom."

Zhang Miaoyin knelt down in front of Miao Nanfeng and said, "May your majesty be well and safe!"

Miao Nanfeng hurriedly helped Zhang Miaoyin up, and they both sat down together.

After sitting down, Miao Nanfeng exclaimed: "The gurgling water takes away the summer heat, and the falling water drops form a beautiful melody. It's really amazing!"

The meal on the table had been prepared. After everyone sat down, a group of palace maids dressed in pink served each person a bowl of exquisite food, accompanied by an exquisite lotus-shaped silver spoon.

The emperor said, "You are a guest from afar. Please have some of the specialties of the Shenyu Kingdom."

The Queen opened the lid and saw that the food was pink in color with steam rising up. She asked curiously, "Emperor Shenyu, why is this summer food emitting steam?"

Before the emperor could speak, Prince Yong smiled and said, "No, no! Your Majesty is really short-sighted. This is not hot air, but cold air. If you don't believe me, try it."

Miao Nanfeng was not angry. She picked up the silver spoon and scooped a mouthful into her mouth doubtfully.

In an instant, Miao Nanfeng felt a mouthful of sweet and sour strawberry flavor exploding in her mouth. The cool feeling directly occupied her entire mouth, and then dominated her throat and intestines. She felt cool, comfortable and refreshed!

"What is this? It's so refreshing? Sour plum soup can't be compared with it!" Miao Nanfeng exclaimed in amazement.

Prince Yong lazily teased:

"Ice cream is a specialty of our Shenyu country! Queen, you must try it carefully, because if you miss this opportunity, you will never see it again!"

Prince Yong was naturally very angry. He had cheated Yu Qinghong out of a thousand ice creams, but his brother ate and took them and gave a big feast to all the ministers, but he didn't even give him a restock. Seeing that his stock was running low, how could he be so upset? !

Miao Nanfeng did not respond to King Yong's question, but said, "I wonder if Emperor Shenyu is interested in exporting this ice cream to my country, Bimu. My country, Bimu, is willing to exchange it for something that is scarce in Shenyu."

"What is that?" Shen Yu Huang asked suspiciously.

"Glass!"

"Glass? Really?" Emperor Li Lin'an asked in surprise, holding down his body as he was about to jump up.

"Really!" Miao Nanfeng replied seriously.

"Isn't Emperor Bimu afraid that Nanyue Kingdom will stop supplying glass to Bimu Kingdom?" Li Linan asked curiously.

"Afraid! But..."

"But I am more optimistic about the market for this ice cream. Our country is even further south than Nanyue Country, so you can imagine how hot it is. Once we introduce this thing, it will definitely boost the economy."

Tang Yiran stood beside Prince Yong and listened to these words, thinking about his glass business. If the Queen interfered like this, wouldn't he lose the initiative?

Thinking of this, Tang Yiran took out two glass tubes of lipstick from his arms and put them on the tray. He walked to the pavilion where the two emperors were, knelt down and said, "I have a gift for the Queen and Her Majesty the Empress!"

Zhang Miaoyin and Miao Nanfeng asked in unison: "What is it? Bring it up quickly!"

Liu Ruhai took the tray and presented it to the two of them.

"Wow! What a wonderful thing this is! When you hold it up to the light, it's dazzling, as if thousands of rays of light are blooming on this little thing!" Zhang Miaoyin exclaimed.

Tang Yiran said, "Your Majesty, this is a lip balm made by me. You can open it and try it."

The queen looked at Tang Yiran but didn't dare to take any action. Although she was very curious, she didn't know this woman. What if this person had poisoned her lip balm? Wouldn't she be poisoned immediately?

While Zhang Miaoyin was hesitating, Miao Nanfeng had already opened her lip balm and started applying it in her mouth.

"Bring me a mirror!" Upon seeing this, the queen quickly asked the palace maid who was responsible for holding the dressing box behind her for a bronze mirror.

When Miao Nanfeng saw herself in the bronze mirror, she immediately smiled. This lipstick was quite dark in color, and it made her look even more extraordinary and as if she was looking down on the world.

"It looks really good! It doesn't feel dry at all after applying it, it seems to moisturize my lips, Miss Yiyi, your lip balm is really good! Thank you very much!"

The Queen was somewhat tempted by the effect of Miao Nanfeng's application, but she was afraid that applying it here would ruin her image, so she gave it to the palace maid to put in her dressing box.

"Your name is... Yiyi? This lip balm is indeed good, but the shell is also very unique, as if there are thousands of colorful things in it. What is it made of?" The queen was still very curious about the shell, so she asked Tang Yiran.

Tang Yiran was waiting for this sentence. She took off her veil and said, "This shell is made of glass. It was made by me!"

Seeing Tang Yiran's face without the veil, the ministers were amazed. They didn't expect that even the maids in Prince Yong's mansion were so beautiful.

Prince Yong looked at Tang Yiran's actions in surprise, not knowing what she was up to.

The queen immediately looked at the emperor suspiciously. She thought that this was a commoner girl that the emperor was going to marry, and that he had deliberately staged this scene to embarrass her so that he would agree to marry her. Thinking of this, the queen's face darkened.

Miao Nanfeng laughed out loud in self-deprecation. No wonder Li Linchuan had always refused to marry her. It turned out that he had raised a little beauty for her. Now, this little beauty had grown into a big beauty. She wanted to confront the emperor!

Liu Qingyang, who was sitting at the last seat, was also quite curious, but the distance was too far and he couldn't see clearly.

The emperor looked at everyone with different expressions and said hurriedly, "Doctor Tang, why is it you?"

"Doctor Tang? Which Doctor Tang?" the Queen asked jealously.

The emperor ignored the queen and asked Tang Yiran, "Doctor Tang, aren't you treating the queen mother in Yongshou Palace? Why are you here?"

Tang Yiran exhaled and said, "Your Majesty, His Highness said that he wanted to test the Emperor Bimu, so he asked me to play the role of a maid in his mansion and cooperate with him."

She then turned to Prince Yong who was walking towards her and said, "Your Majesty, am I right?"

Seeing this, Prince Yong laughed and said, "Ha! That's right! I don't have anyone to use, so I'll borrow Doctor Tang."

The emperor waved his hand and said to the queen, "Bring me the lip balm!"

The queen hurriedly asked the maid for lip balm and handed it to the emperor, "Your Majesty!"

The emperor held the lip balm in his hand and looked at it from left to right, praising it as he looked at it. He then asked, "Doctor Tang, you just said that this glass shell was made by you?"

Tang Yiran lowered his head and said, "Yes, this glass shell was made by me."
