"Ah? Is it true? When was it built? Is it finished?" Oh my God, it's such a big thing, why didn't anyone tell her.

"this…"

Uncle Lin was a little hesitant. Logically speaking, this was a task assigned by the emperor, so even if there was no confidentiality agreement, he should keep his mouth shut.

But the little girl in front of him...he couldn't refuse!

Forget it. If the emperor knew, he wouldn’t blame me.

After all, the emperor ordered the shipbuilding because of what the little princess said.

It turned out that a long time ago, Jiang Hetang inadvertently wrote down what Mingyue said about foreign countries, even places far, far away.

She said, "Uncle, aren't you curious about what's on the other side of the mountain? Aren't you curious about what's on the other side of the sea?"

"Uncle, believe it or not, in this world, besides the Big Bear people, there are also people with dark skin, and people who look similar to us but speak a different language."

"Maybe we can build a very, very big ship and go to the other side of the sea."

The little niece stumbled over her curiosity about the world, as if she was reconstructing her childhood fantasies.

Yes, who hasn’t been curious about these things when they were a child, even whether there is a jade rabbit on the moon, whether there is Chang’e, whether there is Guanghan Palace, and whether it is cold in Guanghan Palace.

Since I can't go up to the sky, I can still help Mingyue look at the other side of the sea.

Therefore, he started planning this matter early on, until a few years ago, when he met the Lin Siyu brothers at a dragon boat race.

As I gradually got to know them better, I discovered that although the Lin family was not one of the richest businessmen at the time, they had a good moral character and were good at doing business. They would never cheat on the weight of their goods.

What's more, his eldest son seems to be planning to take part in the Autumn Examination, and will soon be my man.

It has weaknesses and is easy to control.

He secretly issued this order and used his own money to search for skilled craftsmen in the coastal areas. He also sent many soldiers to pretend to be ordinary laborers to build large ships under the Lin family.

Now, five years have passed and the ship is about to be completed.

After hearing the whole story, Mingyue’s little mouth could fit two eggs.

No wonder she said that her uncle was the supreme ruler and the Great Zhou was not in turmoil, but his private vault was not even as clean as her second brother's trouser pocket.

"Uncle Lin, thank you for telling me this! I'll go find my uncle right away."

Seeing Uncle Lin's horrified eyes, Mingyue knew that he was worried about being blamed by his uncle for being a big leaker, so she whispered, "Don't worry! They won't guess it's you."

"Just say I came to your house today to search for treasures, that's all."

"Hey hey hey! That's a great idea!" Uncle Lin clapped his hands. "Wait a minute, there just happened to be a lot of good stuff delivered from the Western Regions yesterday, and I was going to send it to you!"

At this time, the housekeeper also came out with a box of jewelry, with a kind face, "My little princess, these are all carefully selected by the master. Take a look, aren't they the specialties over there? We don't have them here."

Mingyue: Uh, hehe, do you think this looks good? Is this really good-looking?

Western jewelry is characterized by exaggerated colors, while the jewelry of the Great Zhou Dynasty emphasizes elegance.

But, looking at these large gems inlaid with gold, what could Mingyue do? Of course she took them with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Lin! Uncle Lin, you are so kind!"

"Hehe, um, hehe, it's not that good, hehe." Uncle Lin was praised to the point of flying to the sky.

Lin Siyu said he couldn’t bear to watch it, he couldn’t bear to watch it.

He chose to send Mingyue out and let his father stay here alone.

……

In the palace.

Mingyue rushed to Yongshou Palace with a pile of gold, silver and jewelry as if she was presenting treasures, and put all the treasures on the table.

"Hey, didn't some people say today that they wanted to stay at home and not go anywhere?" Jiang Mengrou came to the palace today to talk to the Empress Dowager and Yuan Tianzhen.

I had asked this lazy pig in the morning if he wanted to join us, but he refused.

"This... these were all things that happened in the morning. Now it's noon and it's me now!" Mingyue said confidently.

The Queen Mother was so amused by her quirky words that she rolled over. "You little monkey, you always have your own reasons for everything!"

Mingyue snorted coquettishly and opened the treasure chest she had "looted" from the Lin family. "Hey, this is what Uncle Lin gave me. Come on, pick them all out. It's not a wasted trip, it's not a wasted trip."

Whether it is Empress Yuan Tianzhen, Empress Dowager, or Princess Jiang Mengrou, they are all women who love these jewels.

Although the colors are exaggerated, the advantage is that each gem is large and crystal clear.

"Oh, that's really good."

"This one looks good too. It's a simple winter outfit, and paired with a ruby ​​ring, it's so bright and makes your hands look whiter."

"You girls look good in them, but I, an old woman, still like this emerald one. It's deep."

"Puchi." Jiang Mengrou and Yuan Tianzhen laughed.

"Mother, we are still girls."

The Queen Mother put down the beads and hugged the two of them. "In my eyes, you will always be my girls. Even if you are as old as me in your seventies or eighties, you are still my children."

This painting style... why is it suddenly so sentimental...

Seeing the three women about to burst into tears, Mingyue quickly imitated Taiwanese accent, "Hey! Then I~ I am not your little girl anymore?"

"Hahahahahaha, look at this little girl, she's not even half the height of a person, and she's already jealous, hahahaha." The Queen Mother's tears finally flowed, but they were from laughter.

"Even your aunt and mother are jealous, hahahaha."

"Hehe, I'll eat it, I'll eat it. I want to be my grandmother's little girl too~~~~" Mingyue threw herself into the empress dowager's arms and gurgled like a silkworm pupa.

"Hahahahahaha."

The Queen Mother's laughter could be heard outside the palace.

Before Jiang Hetang stepped in, he heard this hearty laughter. It had been a long time since his mother laughed like this.

It must be Xiao Mingyue.

Unconsciously, he quickened his pace.

Mingyue heard his footsteps, but pretended not to know he came in.

After all, I will ask him about the big ship later, so I can't expose my allies too early and I can't be too deliberate.

"Oh, what wind blows you all here to my little Yongshou Palace today?" The empress dowager rolled her eyes at Jiang Hetang.

These days, he has been busy dealing with government affairs and has almost no time to spend with his daughter-in-law.

Look, these days, Yuan Tianzhen comes to accompany her almost every day. She probably thinks her son is not doing well.

The daughter-in-law is filial and considers the overall situation. Just because she doesn't say it doesn't mean she doesn't know.

"How can I? I've been busy with important things recently."

Mingyue blinked at him and greeted him softly, "Uncle."

Jiang Hetang also pinched her little hand.

"Are you free to come to my place today?"

Jiang Hetang sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and gulped down his drink before replying, "It's almost over, I can relax a bit."
