The beauty who wears fast has many babies

Chapter 21 World 1: Waterwheel

"Wonderful!" Zhou Chongli looked at the drawing of the waterwheel and became more and more shocked.

There are also things like carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Although he doesn't understand them, Li'er is not an ordinary person.

"Lou Qi, does anyone else know about this?!"

Zhou Chongli spoke in a stern tone, his eyes fixed on Lou Qi, as if trying to find the answer from his expression and answer.

Lou Qi felt the other person's gaze and his heart tightened, but he still replied calmly: "Your Majesty, I am the only one who knows this matter."

His voice was low and firm, revealing a sense of confidence and composure. However, his heart was filled with anxiety and worry.

Hearing Lou Qi's answer, his expression softened slightly, but he still said seriously: "Remember, this matter must not be known to a third person! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous!"

His words revealed a determination and decisiveness that made people feel a chill.

Lou Qi quickly nodded in agreement, indicating that he understood the seriousness of the matter.

Afterwards, Zhou Chongli gave some more precautions and warned Lou Qi not to take it lightly. Lou Qi agreed to all of them and said he would strictly follow the orders.

"I will arrange for someone to help you with this matter. If you don't have enough money, just ask."

Nowadays, roast duck and braised food are all the rage in Beijing, and roast duck is quite expensive. Zhou Chongli's wallet has become much fatter, and his words have also become more assertive.

"Okay, go ahead." Zhou Chongli waved his hand, then sat down and carefully studied the method of making the waterwheel.

After a while.

"Li Xian, go to the harem tomorrow and tell them that Concubine Li is pregnant and needs more rest, and tell the concubines in the harem not to disturb her." Zhou Chongli called Eunuch Li and said.

"By the way, send some silk and satin to make some new clothes for Concubine Li."

"Go and call Pei Ming, the Minister of Works, now." Zhou Chongli said excitedly.

"Yes."

a long time.

Pei Ming, the Minister of Works, arrived breathlessly.

“See…”

"Okay, Minister Pei, come and see."

Before Pei Ming could kneel down, Zhou Chongli hurriedly pulled him to look at the table.

"This, this, Your Majesty, this is a masterpiece of art!" Pei Ming said with a flushed face.

"If we build a water-powered windmill using this method, can it solve the current predicament of Minlan?"

"can!"

"Hahahahaha! God bless our Great Zhou!"

"I order you to take people to deal with this matter. If you fail to complete it, bring your head to me!" Zhou Chongli said with a smile.

"I obey your order!" Pei Ming was fully confident that he could complete it. This was an achievement that came right to him.

"I dare to ask who drew this picture. I would like to pay a visit to him." Pei Ming looked at the emperor with shining eyes.

"Huh! What's wrong? You're itching to show off your skills." Zhou Chongli pointed at Pei Ming and scolded him with a smile.

"Your Majesty understands me." Pei Ming did not refute.

"This picture was drawn by Concubine Li, so there is no need to visit her." Zhou Chongli said proudly.

"What?!" Pei Ming was shocked.

"Empress Li is truly a talented woman, but it's a pity..."

"Okay, anyone who can make suggestions for our Great Zhou is a capable person, regardless of gender. There will be opportunities in the future." Zhou Chongli certainly knew that Pei Ming was not a person who favored boys over girls, it was just a pity that they could not discuss it together.

"What the Emperor said is absolutely true."

"I heard that your son Pei Min is getting engaged to Prime Minister Lin's daughter Lin Ruowei?" Zhou Chongli asked.

"That's true. The marriage of children has always been decided by the mother." Pei Ming said.

This wasn't Pei Ming shirking responsibility; he was a man obsessed with the study of powerful weapons. He didn't even have concubines, only one wife, which was what Zhou Chongli admired most about him. He was capable and didn't have many ulterior motives.

"Recently, a small country on the border sent us some rare glass cups. I'll give them to the two newlyweds."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave now." Pei Ming said anxiously.

"Go ahead, the person who drew the picture, there is no need to hide it." Zhou Chongli said.

"Yes." Then he retreated.

Pei Ming didn't care whether the emperor wanted to make Concubine Li famous. He just wanted to build the water-powered windmill as soon as possible.

The next day, Guanju Palace.

Wu Li, who slept until noon, was dazzled by the silks, satins, and jewelry that filled the room.

"I must not have slept yet. I'll sleep a little longer." After saying that, he fell down again.

"Your Majesty, you are not dreaming. These were all sent by the Emperor." Xiuhong said with a smile.

The entire Guanju Palace was filled with joy early in the morning, and everyone had a happy look on their face.

"What's going on?" Wu Li sat up and asked.

Xiuhong stepped forward to support Wuli, leaned over and whispered, "Yesterday, the emperor secretly sent someone to summon Lou Qi and me."

"You all leave." Wu Li dismissed the servants and left Xiuhong behind.

"Oh? So the emperor knows about the industries outside?" Wu Li asked.

"The emperor only knows that you arranged for Lou Qi to experiment with the fattening method, and he knows nothing else." Xiuhong said.

Wu Li was surprised to hear this.

[Host, yesterday Zhou Chongli summoned Pei Ming, the Minister of Works. He instructed him to build a hydraulic windmill and told him not to hide the fact that it was the host who drew the windmill diagram.]

"Oh? I didn't expect that." Wu Li said in surprise.

[Not only that, but two glass cups were also given to Pei Ming's son as a wedding gift. Furthermore, the system discovered that Zhou Chongli's favorability towards the host has reached 88.]

"Really? That's really cause for celebration."

"Wait? He only gave two glasses to the son of an important official when he got married? That's too stingy." Wu Li curled his lips.

"Host, due to the imperfect technology of this world, it's already difficult to produce ordinary colored glass." The system explained.

"Well, look, here comes the way to make money." Wu Li said with a smile.

"Xiuhong, ask Lou Qi to come see me when he comes back." Wu Li ordered.

"Yes." Xiuhong put down the comb and said.

In Concubine Xue's palace.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Li provided the Emperor with a windmill diagram, which was the reason for the reward." said the little palace maid who had just come back from inquiring.

"What a bullshit windmill picture! I think the emperor is just paving the way for this bitch." Concubine Xue cursed.

Seeing Concubine Xue getting angry, the young maid continued tremblingly, "The Emperor has also sent word that the concubines in the palaces are not allowed to visit Concubine Li, so as not to disturb her recuperation."

"Who does she think she is!" Concubine Xue threw the cup beside her fiercely.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"You are incapable of doing anything and always cause trouble. Get out!" Concubine Xue said angrily.

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. The one who should be most anxious should be Concubine Su. She has a daughter." Cuilan said.

"How can I not be anxious? The emperor said that whoever gives birth to a son will be made queen. Ever since this bitch appeared, my plan has been disrupted." Concubine Xue took a deep breath and said.

He couldn't blame himself for becoming increasingly impatient. Originally, he had planned to have all the palaces use the sheets, quilts, and silks and satins that he had sent, all of which were soaked in medicine.

By then, I will be the only one who can give birth to children for the emperor.

Who knew that now everything is disrupted!
