Zhu Rong was stunned.
The beautiful face that had suddenly appeared in front of him was a hundred times better than the celebrities he had seen in his previous life.
In this era where there was no makeup, what was called a smooth skin and what was called a beauty that could topple countries?
Xu Miaoyun was a living example.
There was something familiar on her face.
However, after looking at it carefully, he could not find any familiarity.
Xu Miaoyun had been observing Zhu Rong's expression.
Seeing that he did not recognize her, she heaved a sigh of relief.
The craftsmanship left behind by the Thousand-faced Zhang was still reliable.
Even though she was Xu Tong and was walking around in front of Zhu Rong every day, Zhu Rong still couldn't recognize her.
This made Xu Miaoyun feel relieved.
Just as she was in shock,
Her lips were lightly touched by someone.
"You…"
The eldest daughter of the Xu family was annoyed.
This guy didn't care about martial arts and launched a sneak attack.
She was originally at a loss, but now she was staring at Zhu Rong.
"We're even!"
"I'm leaving!"
Zhu Rong was in a good mood. As a member of the Tian family, he was able to meet an interesting person in this closed era.
He knew that he was very lucky.
In this era, he naturally wouldn't take any further actions.
After the kiss, she turned around and left.
Xu Miaoyun was both embarrassed and angry. Only then did she react.
Didn't this guy say that he didn't know the way?
Look at his movements, it would be strange if he didn't know the way.
The daughter of the Xu family gritted her teeth and watched as a certain someone disappeared around the corner of a door.
Then, she burst out laughing.
She took out the mirror that Zhu Rong had given her. In the mirror was Xu Miaoyun's flushed face.
"Awesome!"
Zhu Rong sent Xu Manor out, feeling refreshed.
After today, he finally understood what it felt like to have someone in his heart.
Although he had thought about Xu Miaoyun in the past, his feelings for her were just a symbol.
She was supposed to be Fourth Brother's wife, the Empress Xu of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty.
However, by accident, she became his wife.
That was all.
From today onwards, Xu Miaoyun would enter Zhu Rong's heart and be treated as one of his own.
"I remember that she only got married in the ninth year of Hongwu, right?”
"It's only the end of the summer of the fifth year of Hongwu.”
Zhu Rong quickly left the Xu Manor. Not long after, Xu Miaoyun, who was dressed in a eunuch's uniform, also followed.
Back at the palace,
It was already late at night. Zhu Xiong was at his residence, but he did not see Xu Tong.
He did not think too much about it.
Anyway, as a transmigrator, Zhu Rong didn't need to be served.
He was still a little puzzled. Ever since he was punished by his Imperial Brother last time...
The palace never sent any more maids or eunuchs to him.
Currently, the King of Wu, Zhu Xi, only had a little eunuch, Xu Tong, working for him.
We don't have enough manpower.
He took off his clothes and went to sleep. Xu Miaoyun sneakily returned to the palace.
She quietly pushed open Zhu Rong's door and saw that he was already asleep. She was relieved.
Xu Miaoyun saw that Zhu Rong was sleeping soundly, but she didn't even cover herself with a blanket.
She quickly went to find a blanket.
"One more kiss!"
Zhu Rong suddenly said something in her sleep, which made Xu Miaoyun's heart jump.
Then, he realized that someone was talking in her sleep.
Thinking of today's matter, he fled in embarrassment.
"Your Highness, it's time for breakfast!"
The next day, Zhu Rong woke up at the young eunuch's call.
A ray of sunlight shone on the bed.
It showed that it was getting late.
According to the habit of the officials of the Ming Dynasty to wake up at four or five in the morning, Zhu Rong was sleeping late and waking up late.
However, no one cared about him.
Ever since Old Zhu discovered his ability, he ignored him even more.
He got up and saw that the young eunuch had already prepared breakfast for him.
The recipe was still tomato scrambled eggs.
"Not bad!"
She drank the small porridge and tasted the side dishes.
He realized that the little eunuch's cooking skills were not bad either. It was not inferior to the Xu family's wife.
He was literate, smart, loyal, and sometimes simple-minded. He even knew how to cook!
Xu Tong was simply the perfect servant.
"Xu Tong, when I came back yesterday, you weren't around?”
Zhu Rong asked casually, causing Xu Miaoyun to become nervous.
"Your Highness, this servant was too tired yesterday. I might have fallen asleep!”
"This servant knows my mistake. It was only after Your Highness went to bed that this servant discovered that Your Highness had returned!”
"Is that so?"
Zhu Rong turned around to look at his bed and found that there was a new quilt on it. Obviously, someone had added a quilt for him at night.
The doubt in his heart disappeared.
He thought to himself that he had been training Xu Tong a little too hard recently.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. He only had one trustworthy confidant. He had been busy non-stop recently and was mentally exhausted.
He clearly had a divine technique, yet he actually didn't even hear Xu Tong approaching?
"I see. You're so thoughtful!"
"Oh right, this king didn't talk nonsense in his sleep yesterday, right?“
When Xu Miaoyun heard this, a red cloud appeared on her face.
"No, His Highness is sleeping very soundly!”
"By the way, Your Highness, do you need a servant today?“
"If Your Highness doesn't instruct me, this servant will go and deal with the matters of the Wu Estate!”
Only then did Zhu Rong remember that he had asked the little eunuch to keep an eye on Prince Wu's residence for him.
Old Zhu had given him the right to freely build the Wu Estate.
However, Zhu Xiong wanted a perfect home. The craftsmanship was too complicated.
There were many things he said that the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works had never done before.
Without the young eunuch keeping an eye on him, he would not be at ease.
"How's the situation at the Imperial Residence recently?"
"Your Highness, it's going well. However, the construction of the sewer, especially the sewer that connects to the manure tank that you requested!”
"This is a little troublesome!"
"The workers tried several times, but they couldn't complete your request!”
"Also, regarding the toilet bowl, the master at the official kiln said that he couldn't make it!”
Zhu Rong fell into deep thought. Theoretically, the toilet could be burned.
Perhaps the process was too complicated.
The official kiln couldn't burn it out, so Zhu didn't believe it.
However, since the Imperial Kiln was slacking off, he had other ways.
"That's fine. I'll think of another way later!”
"As for the sewers?"
"In a few days, I'll bring you to a place!”
"Your Highness, you don't have a new residence, do you?" Xu Miaoyun was shocked.”
Miss Xu was completely speechless. How many mansions did this guy hide?
The first house was the Penicillins Refinery Workshop, the second was the Glass Production Workshop, and the third was named the Tianji Pavilion by Xu Miaoyun, which meant that it could produce many kinds of technical toys and could be considered a processing workshop.
What was the fourth workshop?
Xu Miaoyun's curiosity was piqued by Zhu Rong.
"You'll know when the time comes!"
"You go ahead and do your work first. I'll go and see Consort Mother!”
Zhu Rong kept him in suspense and then let Xu Tong help him change his clothes.
He went to see Noble Consort Sun.
Xu Miaoyun also remembered the Emperor's instructions.
Emperor Zhu was still waiting for her report on the situation in the third residence.
The Emperor's little spy hurriedly packed his things and ran to the Hall of Martial Valor.
"Prolong the lives of the people of Great Ming by ten years!”
"He's so arrogant!"
Xu Maoyun stood in the Hall of Martial Valor and recited what Zhu Rong and Xiao Jiuxian had said to the Emperor.
When he heard this, the Emperor's expression changed drastically. Arrogant, wasn't his unfilial son too arrogant?
In this era, people had long been used to things like short lifespans.
Even in the imperial family, there were not many emperors who had a long life, let alone ordinary people.
Since ancient times, there were not many commoners who could live to the age of 50.
Many more people might end their lives at the age of thirty-four.
The reason for this was not that these people were born with short lifespans.
It was because there were all kinds of accidents in life.
The common people did not have enough to eat, their bodies were weak, and they lacked nutrition.
The capital to resist the external environment was very weak.
Maybe a plague, a cold,
The man died,
It might be better in a prosperous world, but it was even worse in a chaotic world.
Old Zhu used to be a farmer, so he understood how unreliable this matter was.
He rebuked angrily,
"How many Saints have appeared since ancient times? If the Holy Doctor can't do it, how can he?”
"With his Strange Insect Record?"
Xu Miaoyun quietly waited for the Emperor to finish venting his anger.
Then, he said softly,
"Your Highness said that it was easy and difficult."
"He just showed Old Master Xiao a move, and Old Master Xiao also agreed with His Highness's method!”
"What move? Girl, don't keep me in suspense!"
"Drink some water!"
"Water?"
Old Zhu never thought that Zhu Xiong would give such an answer.
"According to the record of strange insects, there are countless strange insects in the water. These insects are the source of all diseases!”
"But if the water is boiled, most of the insects will die!”
"Then, many people who should have been sick from the alien insects would not have died. The average lifespan of the Ming people would have increased by 1.5%.
After Xu Miaoyun's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood Zhu Rong's intentions.
Just like how he grew up, he had seen many of his peers who had gotten sick for no reason because they had drunk dirty water.
This method had a theoretical basis and was also feasible.
Old Zhu was a little tempted.
However, he didn't say anything and continued to let Xu Miaoyun continue,
Speaking of Zhu Rong's plan,
Including the microscope, the clinic,
Old Zhu was secretly shocked.
"Fifth Brother is preparing to become a Saint!”
The Emperor muttered in his heart. He thought of Empress Ma's words and became even more hesitant.
But at the same time, as a father, the Emperor was very satisfied with Zhu Rong's situation.
Who didn't want their son to be successful?
Putting aside what would happen to him in the future, the things that Zhu Xiong had displayed so far were at least worthy of the words 'caring for the commoners.'
The Zhu family had a good son.
Old Zhu's dragon face was overjoyed.
"Girl, zhen will remember these things. You did well!”
"I will consider the matter of drinking water that you mentioned. By the way, how are you doing with the publication of the Record of Strange Insects?”
"Doesn't Fifth want to be a Saint? Zhen will give him a push!”
"But before that, I want to see his quality. If he wants to promote things like drinking water, then let him use books to convince the scholars of the world!”
"I'll wait to see the results!"
"Your Majesty, the book will be out in ten days at most.
"This time, Miao Yun and Mr. Xiao are preparing to publish the two books together!”
"Miao Yun has confidence in you!"
Xu Miaoyun stood up and bowed to the Emperor.
They left the Martial Meritocrats Hall.
