Quick Transmigration: A Super-Effective Novel Within a Super-Effective Novel
Chapter 43 Farm Girl vs. Transmigrated Woman 12
Emperor Jing, being benevolent and filial, immediately asked the Empress Dowager, "Why is Your Majesty angry?"
The Empress Dowager clapped her hands and summoned two palace servants.
One person was carrying a rough and heavy mirror in their hands, and it was difficult for them to walk.
The other one was holding a smaller object covered with a red cloth.
Emperor Jing asked, "What is this?"
The Empress Dowager pointed at the dim, yellowish mirror that made people look distorted, and became furious.
"This is it? The trinkets that Zhao Shi'an presented as tribute some time ago, supposedly a 'seven-colored glass mirror' that could reflect a person's true appearance and allow me to see my divine face. But look at what these things are, Your Majesty!"
She smashed the unclear, distorted mirror with a "bang," and glared angrily at Lin Ya.
"Is this the thing you invented? Are you trying to blind me? Or are you trying to show me that I'm old and faded, and that I should see it for myself?"
"No! I dare not!"
Lin Ya was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, her heart pounding.
How, how could this happen...
She clearly made the glass mirror according to the method from later generations in her memory. Although it was not fired very finely and the reflection was a bit dim and distorted, it was still... not as bad as the Empress Dowager said!
The technology in this world is not advanced, and the mirrors they used to use were even worse!
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager, who was high up, ripped off the red cloth covering an object being carried by another palace maid.
A smooth and clear glass mirror suddenly appeared, reflecting a dazzling light that amazed everyone present!
The Empress Dowager lovingly stroked Lin Zhao's hand, then looked at Lin Ya with a look of disgust.
"There is no harm without comparison, and I must say that my beloved Roujia is right."
"That glass mirror of yours is a shoddy, failed product that Roujia fired the other day! It's an insult to the emperor, and you still dare to present it to him?"
"Look at the glass mirror that Roujia made! That's what you call smooth and flat! Only then can you truly see a person's image!"
The Empress Dowager launched into a tirade.
"No...this..."
Lin Ya was dumbfounded when she saw the glass mirror. She looked at Lin Zhao again, who was smiling faintly at her.
Lin Ya's mind went blank for a moment, and she didn't even have time to think about why Lin Zhao knew these things.
"Drag this disgraceful thing away immediately!"
Princess Pingsha, who was standing to the side, couldn't hold back any longer and ordered the maids to take action.
But Lin Ya's will to survive was aroused, and she clung tightly to a beam and refused to let go.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, I only failed to make one item! But I can do other things!"
She exclaimed, "This humble woman can also make Pearl Dew Beauty Cream! She can also make soap and clocks!"
As she spoke, she directed the maids behind her to quickly present the prepared items to the Empress Dowager.
These are all novelties in this world!
Moreover, this Pearl Jade Dew Beauty Cream is a formula from later generations. It was the key to their time-traveling woman's brilliance and her victory in this turnaround battle!
There's no reason why someone as pampered as the Empress Dowager wouldn't like her!
But to everyone's surprise, the Empress Dowager only glanced at it and didn't even smell it.
"Oh? You mean this? Pearl Jade Dew Nourishing Cream? Roujia already gave it to me to use."
As she spoke, the Empress Dowager patted Lin Zhao's hand with great appreciation, "The one made by Roujia is much more delicate and fragrant than yours."
"What?!" Lin Ya was stunned again.
Lin Zhao smiled sweetly at Lin Ya from afar, his big eyes full of innocence and naivety, but to Lin Ya, it seemed rather provocative.
"Sister, don't be dissatisfied. I tend to flowers and plants in the mountains every day, so naturally I know more about this than you do."
As he spoke, Lin Zhao looked at the Empress Dowager and the Empress.
"Roujia has also thought about it. Such a good thing should not be kept to oneself. It should be shared with everyone, just like her older sister does."
As he spoke, Lin Zhao had the palace servants present him with jar after jar of Pearl Jade Dew Beauty Cream.
The royal ladies were all beaming with joy upon receiving such a wonderful item, praising Lin Zhao for her kindness. Even Princess Pingsha, after receiving a jar and applying a small amount, gradually began to smile.
Lin Ya was once again overshadowed by Lin Zhao, and she was completely humiliated!
How could this happen...?
Lin Ya looked at Lin Zhao in disbelief. At this moment, Lin Zhao was talking to the princes and nobles in a generous and elegant manner, and no one paid any attention to Lin Ya, who had just been presenting treasures.
She was so angry she felt like she was going to vomit blood!
She's clearly the transmigrated woman who's practically a goddess! All that praise and admiration should be for her!
Lin Ya was bewildered and, in a fit of anger, forgot all about court etiquette and shouted, "This humble woman has another extraordinary item to offer! It's soap!"
To everyone's surprise, the Empress Dowager tilted her head and asked, "Is it the one that Roujia brought into the palace yesterday for me to use for washing?"
"boom……"
The Empress Dowager's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Lin Ya's mind reeling.
"Then, then this humble woman also knows how to make incense and scented water!" Lin Ya thought for a moment, then said urgently.
"Oh? Did Roujia also bring something called perfume? A small bottle, its fragrance travels for miles?" the Empress Dowager asked.
"This humble woman knows how to make clocks!" Lin Ya's lips twitched.
"You mean that big thing that keeps time by its own hands? Roujia just had it brought over." The Empress Dowager was very pleased.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty can also make sugar ice cubes and cola! Surely we're out of these to eat!" Lin Ya was on the verge of collapse.
"Oh, we've been talking for so long, and we haven't even had a bite of the imperial meal yet." The Empress Dowager suddenly seemed to remember something, pointing to the table and introducing it to everyone, "Today's imperial meal also features Roujia's ingenious idea, which is... what was it called again?"
The Empress Dowager looked at Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao, however, turned her head slightly towards Lin Ya, raised her eyebrows, and smiled sweetly.
"Ice-cold Coke."
"You..." Lin Ya was dumbfounded.
Even if she were stupid, at this point, she could guess that Lin Zhao, who had nothing to do with the image of a rough and uncouth country girl, must have a strange background.
They were really out of luck; it was impossible to guard against, and Lin Zhao stole all the limelight!
Lin Ya felt a lump in her throat, as if she were about to vomit blood.
"Guards! Drag him away! Drag him away! I can't stand the sight of him!"
Finally, Lin Ya was dragged away by the Empress Dowager on charges of disturbing the palace and slapped fifty times. She was sent back to the princess's residence before she could even finish the family banquet.
Entrusted by Princess Pingsha, Zhao Shi'an, out of consideration for face, also accompanied Lin Ya back to the mansion.
Lin Ya didn't look too happy on the way. Her face and chin, which had just recovered, were red, swollen and painful again. But she felt that at least she had Zhao Shi'an, a dashing young nobleman, to see her off, so it wasn't too bad. Her mood calmed down a bit.
At least Lin Zhao doesn't have a man by her side yet.
She leaned sadly against the carriage, her face pale, her hands clutching a white handkerchief in front of her chest, thinking that her tearful appearance would surely win Zhao Shi'an's favor.
But Zhao Shi'an didn't pay much attention to her the whole way. His eyes and head seemed to be stuck to the carriage window, staring straight outside.
Little did he know that the sight of Lin Ya reminded Zhao Shi'an of what he had seen in prison that day. The stench seemed to still linger in his nose, making him feel nauseous!
"Shi'an, what are you looking at? Sigh, I feel so uncomfortable..." Lin Ya had no choice but to make some noise.
Zhao Shi'an endured for a few seconds before finally tilting his head.
“I…I looked outside and saw that many people were already using the things Princess Roujia invented. Princess Roujia is truly an extraordinary woman…”
It turned out that the small inventions that Lin Zhao presented to Emperor Jing and the Empress Dowager had long since spread to the common people. Emperor Jing also sent craftsmen from the palace to teach the craftsmanship to the people. The whole country of Jing benefited, and the people praised Lin Zhao, this princess from the common people.
In addition to these inventions that could improve people's livelihoods, Lin Zhao also developed gunpowder, rocket launchers, cannons and other firearms and presented them to Emperor Jing to prevent foreign threats.
Emperor Jing felt as if he had found a treasure. Compared to the "cannon" that Lin Ya presented, which was only slightly more powerful than a firecracker, Lin Zhao's firearms were simply too strong!
Emperor Jing immediately ordered the invention to be put into production, and it would soon be used in border wars.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shi'an implied that Lin Ya should learn more from Lin Zhao and stop causing trouble.
But Lin Ya stopped talking. It turned out that Lin Ya had heard Zhao Shi'an praising Lin Zhaohao again, which was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Lin Ya was so angry that she fainted.
Unexpectedly, after returning to Princess Pingsha's residence, Lin Ya found that something even worse awaited her.
The yamen runners from Kaifeng Prefecture came to the door again, and took Lin Ya away as if they knew the way well. They also announced Emperor Jing's decree to confine Princess Pingsha and her husband to their quarters.
It turns out that Emperor Jing learned during the banquet that Lin Ya had poisoned people, and that Princess Pingsha's residence and the Prince of Huaibei's residence had been covering it up in every way, which was simply a blatant disregard for human life!
In a fit of anger, Emperor Jing decided to reopen the investigation and arrested Lin Ya again.
Strangely, this time the constables didn't take Lin Ya back to prison; instead, they dragged her back to the palace.
"What?! You want me to marry that abusive man?!"
After hearing Emperor Jing's words, Lin Ya shouted without any regard for her image.
