The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby
Chapter 520: Cloud Car
Because Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan had previously stated that they would not stay in the capital, they were only given some privileges and then conferred a title. Liang Shulan also became a first-rank lady.
This was something they had never dared to imagine before they came!
How should I put it? Although I have no real power, my reputation is indeed well-known.
In addition, the emperor's personal acknowledgement of their life-saving grace was enough for them to walk all over Kyoto even without real power.
The two of them kowtowed to express their gratitude.
At this time, Yu Ruyue came out.
She clapped her hands outside the door, and Jingyue walked in holding a long object wrapped in red cloth in one hand.
Qin Haowen looked at the thing with great curiosity, "What is this?"
Yu Ruyue directly lifted the red cloth on it. "This thing is called 'Taoyun Car', which means stepping on the blue sky. Of course, it can also be called a bicycle."
Yu Ruyue's fingertips brushed across the boxwood-carved phoenix handlebars. The gilded gears glowed with tiny light spots at the joints under the moonlight. The specially widened seat was covered with bright yellow cushions and looked very comfortable.
Feng Han had seen this thing before when she was in the mountains, and even tried to ride it once. However, her sense of balance was not very good. She always liked to watch the wheels swaying crookedly and bumping into people. After bumping into them a few times, she didn't want to learn anymore.
Later, although Liang Shulan and Qiuhong stayed with her all the time, and Shen Jiaojiao and others also taught her, she probably really had no talent in this area and could never learn it, so she never mentioned this to her son.
I didn't expect Ruyue to be so thoughtful and send a bicycle. This bicycle is much better looking than the one they rode on the mountain. The pattern engraved on it is very delicate, and the seat is wider than before and looks soft.
Qin Haowen widened his eyes and looked at the thing below, which was called a cloud-stepping vehicle, or a bicycle, and found it very strange.
The officials sitting below had not yet recovered from their shock, and were still thinking about how to use the Yu family to climb up the social ladder and how to get some sweet potatoes into their homes.
As a result, another strange thing appeared.
At this moment, everyone's mind was full of doubts.
"Princess Anguo! Is this a car? Can it move?"
Yu Ruyue chuckled, "Your Majesty, please move outside the palace."
Qin Haowen looked at Yu Ruyue's mysterious look and was also full of curiosity.
So he led all the officials out of the hall.
The palace lanterns trailed golden flames across the vermilion walls, and Yu Ruyue, holding up her skirt, stepped over the white jade steps.
Shen Zhiheng picked up the bicycle with one hand and placed it in front of his wife!
Yu Ruyue immediately began to explain, "For this thing, you need to sit on a chair with both feet, hold the handle in front to control the direction, and then step hard on the pedals below, and the wheels will turn!"
The ministers next to him immediately understood the principle of the bicycle. The Minister of Rites felt that it was too indecent. No matter whether it was a man or a woman, they had to spread their legs apart, which was totally rude.
His beard trembled with anger. "How can such a thing be presented to His Majesty? The Zhou Li says..."
Yu Ruyue chuckled and quickly interrupted, "The Book of Rites of Zhou doesn't say you can't ride a two-wheeled vehicle."
She flipped over and jumped onto the seat, the agate beads she was wearing jingling.
She had anticipated the reactions of these stubborn old men and had specially asked the clothing bureau to cut the pleated skirt into a riding style, which was very convenient!
The wheels of the cart squeaked as they rolled over the blue bricks, and the women watching forgot to wave their fans.
The Minister of Rites, seeing her straddling the Cloud-Stepping Chariot with her legs crossed, angrily exclaimed, "What a strange and lewd trick! Our Great Yong Dynasty was founded on rituals..."
Before she finished speaking, Yu Ruyue suddenly stepped on the accelerator pedal, and the specially made copper reed in the gear box emitted a clear and melodious sound like a phoenix, which startled the koi in the pond next to her and made them jump out of the water.
As she rode, she performed a stunt: she let go of the carved handlebars with one hand, brushed the helmets of the stunned Yulin guards with her wide sleeves, stood up, and plucked a late-blooming weeping crabapple.
"Look! Princess Anguo is flying!" Some palace maid shouted at the top of her lungs. The ladies who had been sitting in a stately manner no longer cared about their manners and hurried forward!
The hairpins on her hair were swinging wildly, making tinkling sounds like wind chimes. Several brave young men and women were already chasing after her.
Yu Ruyue felt the night breeze blowing into her sleeves, and her heart felt very comfortable! !
"A hen crowing at dawn! It's immoral!" The Imperial College's chief academician pointed tremblingly at her fluttering skirt. A few old Hanlin scholars were about to agree when a little princess leaned on her nanny's shoulder and clapped her hands, "Sister Ruyue's skirt is blooming!"
Yu Ruyue rode around and when she came back, she braked suddenly and stopped in front of the old ministers. The wheels of the car rubbed patterns on the blue bricks. She deliberately lifted the hem of her skirt inlaid with oriental pearls three inches higher, then got off the car and raised her eyebrows at these old pedants!
The handsome ladies secretly clapped their hands!
But it made those old pedants feel a little breathless!
Shen Zhiheng looked at her with soft and doting eyes, and the love in his heart was about to turn into water and overflow!
At this moment, Qin Haowen suddenly stood up, his eyes full of light as he looked at the bicycle!
Yu Ruyue quickly pushed the bike in front of him and taught him how to maintain balance, how to control the brakes, and what he should pay attention to when riding this bike.
The more Qin Haowen listened, the more interested he became. Just as he was about to lift his foot and mount the carriage, the minister beside him immediately stopped him, "Your Majesty! You can't do that! Spreading your legs is totally against etiquette, and it would be disastrous if your dragon robe got caught in the wheels!"
"Yes! This is simply disrespectful to our ancestors."
Qin Haowen looked at those old and pedantic people and frowned slightly. He found that the older the ministers were, the more involved they were and they would often bang their heads against the pillars!
The most important thing is that these old ministers have basically never made any mistakes. Even after several generations of emperors, they are still standing in the court. You can imagine how complicated and smooth the forces behind these people are!
He pursed his lips, but ultimately didn't lift his legs. He sighed inwardly, wondering when he would be able to outlast these old bastards.
But think about it, if we keep them alive until they die, maybe their confidants will come up too.
Do I have to live this kind of life from now on?
No!
Thinking of this, he lifted his leg up again.
He became emperor not to find a few fathers for himself.
As he lifted his legs, the old ministers rolled their eyes and seemed to be about to faint.
However, the young men and women nearby, as well as some civil and military officials who had just climbed up, all looked at the cloud-stepping chariot with sparkling eyes.
I feel like this thing is really amazing.
They didn't feel that sitting with legs apart was rude, they just thought that the action seemed like running!
It's just that one is stepping on the ground and the other is stepping on the pedals.
