Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

Upon hearing this, the emperor asked curiously: Why are you coming into the palace with me?

Zi Xue was a little shocked when she heard this and said: Didn’t the emperor want to give me an imperial edict?

The emperor was even more speechless after hearing this, while Fulai was laughing secretly on the side.

The emperor said: There is no need to be so anxious, I will still do what I promised you.

Zi Xue nodded and said: Since the emperor is not in a hurry, then I shouldn't be in a hurry either. I won't go. I will consider the marriage when the emperor has made up his mind.

The emperor choked when he heard this and glared at the silly girl. She really thought that he was too easy to talk to and she even dared to tease him.

However, the emperor still likes Zixue's personality very much. She says what she thinks and is not pretentious. Moreover, when she speaks, it is impossible to get angry. This is very strange.

Is it because good-looking people have privileges?

After the emperor returned to the palace, he sat in the imperial study, staring at the desk in a daze.

Fulai whispered: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have been sitting here in a daze for an hour.

The emperor heard this and said helplessly: This girl really doesn't suffer any loss at all, she is too defensive, even if she wants to get married, she needs an imperial decree so that she can leave at any time.

It can be seen that this has had a significant impact on the Zi family, who are afraid that their freedom will be restricted by the royal rules.

In fact, I don’t have much hope for Lao Jiu. Although I feel that Lao Jiu will not give up that girl for another woman, what that girl said is right. The royal family changes rapidly. Who knows what will happen in the future?

Having a guarantee in hand is much better than leaving everything to an unknown future.

After saying that, he wrote an imperial edict, which stated that if Lao Jiu could not remain faithful to his wife, then it would be time for them to divorce. He even wrote that after the divorce, the maid would directly become a princess.

He was also given a fiefdom, 500 miles away from the capital. In other words, if the Ninth Prince did anything to let Zi Xue down in the future, this imperial decree would directly cut off their relationship from then on.

The emperor gave the child to the princess because he knew that the girl was a vengeful person, hoping that she would spare the life of the ninth brother.

No matter what, the emperor has a very good vision. He can naturally guess Zixue's personality by looking at her behavior.

As for why not directly use the imperial power to order Zixue?

Because the emperor was not a fool, he had a premonition that as long as he dared to do this, his Nebula Kingdom would not be far from being destroyed.

He didn't want to see the girl's revenge, nor did he want to know whether his guess was right or not, but he couldn't gamble. Besides, if you were nice to this girl, she would be nice to you in the same way.

Just like before, he was indeed angry because of the matter of King Zhan, so he could only give this girl a little compensation, but that was really insignificant to him as the emperor.

But the girl remembered it, so she also gave back to herself, right?

No matter what, he still liked this girl very much. She was bold and her temperament was stronger than any princess in the palace. You had to make friends with such a girl.

Either you choose to kill with one blow, or you will only regret it. Isn’t the Zi family the best example?

The imperial edict was quickly delivered to the county lord's mansion by Fulai.

Zi Xue said: Thank you, Eunuch Fu, please tell the emperor that everything should be done according to his wishes, and he can arrange the rest.

Fulai really liked this girl, and said with a smile: "Okay, County Lady, I will definitely tell the Emperor."

Zixue asked her maid Yueling to prepare something for Fulai and said, "These two boxes are for the emperor, and these two boxes are for you.

These are the tea leaves I roast myself when I have nothing to do.

Drinking a green box at night is not only good for your health, but also helps you sleep.

It’s quite hot in the summer, so you can drink some from the blue jade box at noon. It not only cools you down but also has a refreshing effect.

Go back and ask the imperial physician to check it out before giving it to the emperor.

Fulai smiled and said: I still have some.

Zi Xue smiled and said: The weather is getting hotter and hotter now, and it’s not easy for you to serve the emperor.

You guys go back and try some. If you like it, I'll give you the recipe and the emperor can ask the imperial physician to prepare it.

Fulai smiled and said: "Thank you, County Princess. I will definitely try it when I go back. Then I will go back and report."

Zixue nodded and asked the maid to send Eunuch Fu out.

It is really hot now. The temperature in July is almost 40 degrees. I don't know why the temperature in this world is so high.

Fortunately, I am not particularly afraid of heat.

She had ice cubes, so the room was relatively cool.

Because it was too hot, Zixue asked everyone not to work in the yard after 10 o'clock in the daytime.

We can do things in the afternoon when the sun is about to set. There is nothing to do in the entire county lady's mansion anyway.

These days, Zixue has developed an automatically rotating fan that does not require manpower or electricity.

And it's all automatic, but it requires the principle of magnets.

After making it, I used it myself and felt that it was really good, so I made two pairs with better jade, one for the emperor and the other for the empress.

The others were made of wood and were found in the rooms of the maids and servants in his mansion, as well as in the pavilion outside.

We also give everyone mint tea and mung bean water on a regular basis, as this is the only way to avoid heatstroke.

Have the servant deliver the finished product to the palace.

The emperor was in the imperial study, and Fulai was fanning him all the time, but he still sweated. However, with the tea given by Zixue, he felt cool all over after taking a sip.

It was indeed much more comfortable. The emperor even said with a smile: This girl is really smart.

The imperial physician also said that this is indeed good for the body, and now the entire palace is full of people thanks to these two pieces.

After all, ice cubes will eventually run out, and not everyone can use them.

There was a report outside that the county princess had something to give to the emperor.

The emperor laughed and said, "What is that? Did this girl get something good again?"

Soon the guards carried in two jade stones that were one and a half meters high and one meter wide.

The servant in Zixue Mansion said: Your Majesty, this is the fan that the county lady made for the emperor and the queen.

This does not require manpower. Just pull this button and the fan blades will rotate automatically. Because they are made of jade and are relatively large, we are afraid of hurting people.

So we put a frame made of golden nanmu on it, and it will be fine as long as no one puts their fingers in it.

The county lady said that under normal circumstances, the emperor should not be placed next to her, but should be kept two or three meters away. If ice cubes are placed in the box behind the fan, the room will cool down quickly.

If you want to stop it, just push the wrench in and the fan will stop after a while.

He was operating as he spoke, and when the fan started turning, it was indeed very fast and the wind force was very strong.

Now, when I was suddenly blown by the wind, I actually felt a lot of ice on my body. There were already a lot of ice cubes in the imperial study.

But no matter how many there are, they are all just small human-powered fans spinning, and the ice can be said to melt faster than the cool air.

Fulai quickly put the ice cubes into the box, and there were actually more ice cubes in the room than the previous two.

The most important thing is that there is no need for manual fanning.

The servant said: This kind of ventilation will keep the room much cooler than relying solely on ice. The county lady said that this box of ice can be used for a whole day, which saves several times more than usual.

Upon hearing this, the emperor asked curiously: Why are you so frugal?

The servant said: The county lady said that this box is specially made, it is full of jade, and it has the function of heat preservation. The ice cubes will not be heated by the hot air, but will only be taken away by the cool air because of the fan, so it will be reduced.

I don't know the specific reasons, but the county lady told me that the emperor will definitely ask these questions, so I should just answer accordingly.

Upon hearing this, the emperor laughed and said: This girl can actually guess what I will ask.

I feel like the temperature in the room is now constant, and it's much cooler than before.

He nodded and said: You go and deliver it to the Queen.

The servant said: Your Majesty, the county princess also made some wooden ones. Due to limited manpower, we can only bring the finished ones here. Here are the drawings.

The county lady said that the maids and servants in the palace could prepare a smaller one like this for them, which would be cooler and better than taking medicine for heatstroke.

The emperor smiled and nodded, saying: Okay, I got it, you go and deliver it to the Queen.

The servant took the order and delivered it to the queen, and received the same answer. After delivering it, he returned to the county lord's mansion and replied to Zixue: County lord, the emperor and the queen are very happy.

Zi Xue smiled and said: I understand, you go and have a rest. We have ice for everyone in our house. This winter, we should prepare more ice for ourselves so that we don’t have to worry about not having enough ice in the future.

The servant nodded and said: In fact, every mansion has an ice cellar, but the ice will melt after a short time.

Zi Xue smiled and said: That's because they didn't dig deep enough and the insulation was not good enough. When it's not hot in the fall, I will teach you how to dig an ice cellar that won't melt.

You can also make ice water to drink in summer.

The servant smiled, nodded, thanked him and went away.

The servants and maids in the entire county lady's mansion not only respect Zixue but also like her.

Not only did their master never beat or scold them, but he was also very good to his servants. For example, now they could also use fans. Although they were not made of jade, they were much better than having nothing.

The one used by the county lady herself was made of the same wood. The only difference between the ones used by the servants and those used by the county lady was the size.

Nowadays, people in the County Lady’s Mansion are all smiling when they go out, and many people will curiously ask why they are so happy?

The servants and maids would then say how great their county lady was.

This was also known to many officials in the capital. After all, many families in these cities beat and scolded their servants.

Although no one has known about the killing of slaves so far, such things have happened throughout the ages.

Now many maids and servants in noble families have heard about it and want to see how the county lady treats her servants.

But they have no way to get in. But they can still find out.
