The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

On Kyoto's corpse-stitching street!

Several luxurious carriages were parked on the roadside. Although it was early winter and the wind was freezing, making people unable to move, it was extremely lively here!

There were hundreds of tables of imperial banquets, hundreds of officials gathered, and His Majesty was present in person. This Corpse Sewing Street, which had always been regarded as a "lowly place", had never seen such a grand scene!

And all of this is thanks to Ye Qianxuan, the corpse seamstress who was promoted like a rocket and has already been transferred to Room No. 5 of Xuanzi!

Although the corpse tailors could only sit at the last five tables, with civil and military officials in front of them, this was a great joyous event for the corpse tailors who had been looked down upon all their lives, and they all felt proud!

You ordinary people look down on us corpse tailors?!

Pooh!

I’ve eaten at the imperial banquet and seen the holy face, you bunch of scum!

Kong Zhongzhi was also sitting at the front table.

"Your Majesty will be here soon. The weather in Dongzhou is getting colder, and the day of sacrifice is approaching. Your Majesty will definitely ask about it later." Minister of Rites Bai Haiqiu came over and said with a bow, "Teacher, have you figured out how to solve the problem of needing firewood for the sacrifice?"

Ye Xiaoyou prepared it for me, but for some reason, it hasn’t come yet!

However, Kong Zhongzhi was too lazy to tell Bai Haiqiu!

I asked him for help a few days ago, but this guy turned the door away and refused to see me. He has no respect for his teacher at all, and now he is pretending to be hypocritical with me!

Pooh!

nausea!

So Kong Zhongzhi just said calmly: "I think it's almost ready. Thank you Minister Bai for your concern!"

"Teacher, you're really embarrassing me!" Bai Haiqiu bowed deeply. "I heard that you're planning to rely on that corpse tailor named Ye to solve the problem of obtaining firewood for the sacrifice?"

"Teacher, forgive my bluntness. The corpse tailor surnamed Ye may have some poetic talent, but solving the Dong Zhou firewood problem requires real strength!"

"Teachers, please don't rush to seek medical help!"

Li Mingda, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, also joined in the conversation, cupping his hands and saying, "Minister Bai is right! If you want to truly resolve the issue of the sacrificial offerings and the need for firewood, you might as well be more active!"

"Zuo Cheng will also be here today. If the teacher is willing to talk to him for a few words, Zuo Cheng will definitely have a solution!"

What these two people meant was very clear. If you, Kong Zhongzhi, choose to stand on the side of the civil service group, the civil service group will help you solve the problem of asking for wages for sacrifices.

"Haha, thank you both very much." Kong Zhongzhi didn't like factional disputes. Besides, these two old foxes were more cunning and powerful than each other. He was more willing to believe Ye Qianxuan, the simple corpse tailor.

For some reason, Kong Zhongzhi believed what Ye Qianxuan said and believed that he could really help him solve the firewood problem in Dong Zhou.

Bai Haiqiu sighed: "Teacher, now that you have entered the world, you must learn to be delicate, otherwise you will inevitably waste your time in the court."

"Are you teaching me a lesson?" Kong Zhongzhi narrowed his eyes, and there was already some righteous aura in his body!

"The students don't dare." Bai Haiqiu shook his head and left with a bow.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Li Mingda shook his head and left.

At the same time, a loud shout echoed throughout the Corpse Street:

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Everyone knelt down!

But Kong Zhongzhi was hesitant in his heart - the emperor had arrived!

Why hasn’t Ye Qianxuan come yet!

……

General Liu's Mansion.

After swallowing the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum given by the empress, Ye Qianxuan suppressed the backlash of the Grandmaster Pill and woke up. He then immediately drew a flow chart of coal refining on the table.

The coal from Heizang Mountain is all raw coal with high oil and sulfur content. It must be degreased and desulfurized, then crushed and mixed with soil to make honeycomb coal.

At the same time, the filtered kerosene and sulfur are useful.

Kerosene can be used to make weapons in the military and to make lamps in the daily life.

In this era, common people used straw lamps in their homes, while candles were used in the palace.

Compared with these two types of lamps, kerosene lamps are much brighter and more durable. They are simply epoch-making products. I am the Edison of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!

Sulfur is also a good thing. It can be used to make gunpowder in the future and can also be used for disinfection.

After Chu Yao got the news, she rushed here to serve Ye Qianxuan.

Although he didn't understand what Ye Qianxuan was drawing, he was sensible enough not to ask any further questions.

At this moment, Ye Qianxuan had not taken a shower yet and was as dirty as a coal miner. However, Chu Yao did not dislike him at all. She just used her bare hands to do her best to massage Ye Qianxuan to relax him.

"Heir Ye, we've brought back two truckloads of the black dirt...the coal you requested. They're right here in the backyard. What should we do with it next?"

Uncle Fu came in and asked with a bow.

Ye Qianxuan handed the paper over and instructed, "Follow the blueprint and build a simple cave in the backyard. Then wash the coal you brought back to remove impurities, dry it, grind it, and mix it with clay. The rest is done according to my blueprint. Move as quickly as possible and send it to Corpse Sewing Street!"

Uncle Fu didn't know what Ye Qianxuan was going to do, but he still responded: "I obey your orders."

Uncle Fu immediately gathered people and started working.

After making the arrangements, Ye Qianxuan stretched himself, prepared to take a shower and attend the imperial banquet with a hundred tables on Corpse Seaming Street!

"Descendant of Ye! Descendant of Ye!"

A servant from the general's mansion ran in and glanced at Chu Yao who was serving Ye Qianxuan. He was stunned for a moment, obviously attracted by Chu Yao's beautiful face and devilish figure.

There are quite a few maids in the general's mansion, but I've never seen one as exciting as this one!

This is so beautiful too!

Even if she were placed in the Jiaofangsi where there were many beautiful women, she would definitely be at the level of an otome!

And that obedient and submissive face really makes people want to ravage it...

"Talk about something!"

Ye Qianxuan knocked on the table to remind the servant, and cursed in his heart: Damn it, this is my woman, what the hell are you looking at!

The servant then realized that he had lost his composure and immediately knelt on the ground in panic, slapping himself repeatedly:

"This slave deserves death! This slave deserves death!"

"Please, Mr. Ye, let me go! Please, Mr. Ye, let me go!"

The servant was afraid that Ye Qianxuan would kill him, and at this moment he wished he could dig out his own eyeballs to make amends!

"Are you okay?" Ye Qianxuan was a little impatient.

Everyone loves beauty, not to mention that Ye Qianxuan is a modern man and is not that stingy.

On the contrary, it proves that Chu Yao is really beautiful, and it is very face-saving to have her by my side!

It's not necessary to chop off the servant's head just because he looked at his woman.

"Reporting to Heir Ye! His Majesty has arrived at Corpse Sewing Street!"

Only then did the servant tell the purpose of his coming in.

"I rely on!"

Ye Qianxuan jumped up from his seat!

The emperor has arrived, but I haven’t!

How disrespectful!

Isn't this a death rhythm?

"Chu Yao, tell Uncle Fu to take the spies and the rescued yamen runners we captured yesterday, along with the honeycomb coal, and send them to Corpse Seaming Street. Hurry!"

Ye Qianxuan asked the servant to prepare the horse and rushed out immediately!

"Master! You haven't taken a shower yet!" Chu Yao chased out and shouted.

"That's too late!"

Ye Qianxuan rushed out, jumped on his horse, and rode straight towards Corpse Seaming Street!

Coal carries oil, which gets into the pores and is difficult to wash off.

By the time I finish washing, the Empress's execution will be on my head!
