After the Tyrant Dressed As a Woman Disguised As a Man - Chapter 102

There is no window facing the sun in the place where Yanyu works, and the lighting does not rely on lights, but on the night pearls inlaid in several corners.

In this non-glaring environment, Qiao Qing slept for a whole day when she slept, fell asleep early in the morning, and woke up in the next morning.

She didn’t sleep well. After all, she usually sleeps on a dragon bed and uses the best materials, but now he sleeps on human thighs.

Seeing Yanyu’s face that looked upright and impeccably perfect from near and far, Qiao Qingmeng sat up. She actually slept on this national teacher who had a bad idea about him yesterday!

Qiao Qing moved her arms and cervical spine, feeling sore and numb: “How long did I sleep?”

She thought with a fluke that the sky outside seemed to be the same as before, it should have only been squinted for a while.

Yanyu said: “It’s just now Chenshi.”

Just arrived Chen Shi! She stayed up all night, remembering that it was three quarters past hour and hour. Although she was a little unconscious in that state at the time, Qiao Qing felt that her memory was very good, and it was absolutely impossible to remember it wrong.

It’s impossible to fall asleep and fall asleep and set time back. Qiao Qing actually knew the result, but still asked with luck, “What day is today?”

“October 16.”

She was fourteen when she accompanied Yanyu, staying up all night until the food, which means that she slept on Yanyu’s lap for a whole day!

No wonder her neck is so sore, Qiao Qing moved her shoulders and her neck, feeling that she could hear the creaking sound of her bones: “Why didn’t the Chinese teacher call me? Yesterday you wouldn’t have been sitting like this. One night.”

She took a peek at the hem of Yanyu’s clothes, knowing that when she sleeps with her face sideways, it is easy for her cheeks to run out of water if her face is oppressed. Fortunately, the other party’s clothes look very dry and there is no suspicious trace.

Qiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief. She was the emperor anyway, and she was not a kid holding a milk bottle. She was all this old. If she was found to be drooling while sleeping, she would lose face.

Yanyu said: “It won’t matter. When your Majesty was sleeping, I happened to carve out all the mahjong tiles that your Majesty said.”

This thing is actually very easy to make, because they are all of the same specification. The key is that the patterns carved on them are different. When Qiao Qing described it to Yanyu, he wrote it directly on the paper.

The wind from southeast to northwest, Fa Cai Whiteboard, these are all square and square Chinese characters, and they are easy to write from one point to nine cakes. The charcoal pen she used took less than a quarter of an hour to draw all the patterns. .

But sculpting these small things, Yanyu took a full day and night.

Qiao Qing was shocked: “In just a day’s work, you have carved it all out?”

If she remembers correctly, Yanyu uses good jade to carve these cards.

Although they are all small things, there are a lot of cards in a deck.

Yan Yu said: “That’s not true, it’s only carved into two pieces.”

Qiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, she just said, if that were the case, Yanyu’s speed would be too bad.

In fact, if it is shoddy and made a few decks of cards in a day, Qiao Qing also believes it, but he remembers his movements before going to bed to feast on jade, the other party is not carving cards at all, or carving works of art.

The patterns above are very delicate and the things she wrote by hand are completely different.

In fact, according to the fineness of Yanyu’s works, his speed is already very fast. According to his artistic attainments, ordinary people may have to carve a card for a long time.

You know that artists want to complete a work, let alone one or two days, even one month or two months, or even one or two years.

“Can you let me see the achievements of the national teacher.”

Yanyu smiled and sent two cards towards Qiao Qing.

One is a bird and the other is to make a fortune. After all, the emperor likes money, so he should like to make a fortune.

Qiao Qing told Yanyu about sparrows at the beginning. He drew simple abstract q prints, but the other party carved out a very vivid and lifelike bird.

The round eyes are vivid, as if to jump out of this mahjong.

The other is getting rich because it is not a painting but a character. I don’t have this bird, which makes Qiao Qing amazing, but the carved characters are also excellent.

Is this a human hand? This is simply the hand of a god.

Qiao Qing loves to play with the mahjong tiles in his hand, and feels the excellent lustrous touch of the jade in his hand: “The carvings of the national masters are so beautiful, who is willing to use it?”

This kind of artwork should be stored, it is best to take a glass cabinet to seal it, so that the glass is transparent and can be shown to others.

“If your majesty likes it, the minister can sculpt it all for your majesty.”

“That’s not necessary.” Yanyu had only carved out one or two after a long night, and had to finish all the rest, not to mention, she would have to take a few months of precious time.

This hand should be used to do more meaningful things, not to carve this kind of mahjong tiles for fun.

“If the national teacher is willing, these two cards will be enough for me.”

Yanyu curled her lips and smiled at the emperor.

He didn’t tell Qiao Qing that in fact he still had a few cards in his sleeves, but the emperor’s face was engraved on the back of those cards. This thing could not be shown to him because he was reluctant to show it to the emperor.

Qiao Qing glanced at Yanyu’s eyes. This guy looked radiant after all day long, with no redness in his eyes.

She was obviously only twenty, and because of her poor health, she was already a middle-aged girl who needed to soak goji berries in a thermos cup, but this man was full of energy after two nights.

It’s really more maddening than people.

Qiao Qing decided not to compare with Yanyu, and only reminded him: “Even if the national teacher likes it, this thing is not in a hurry, and other craftsmen can do the same. You have not slept for two nights, anyway. Rest. Okay, I still have official duties, so I won’t bother the national teacher.”

When she made this thing with Yanyu at the time, it was purely because of her excitement. After all, this kind of thing has no technical content. As long as a craftsman is a craftsman, she can make it for her according to the picture.

Qiao Qing just didn’t expect that she couldn’t sleep anymore, and Yanyu could do things silently for so long alone.

This made her feel guilty. Guo Shi is really an honest person, so let the honest person take a good rest.

Speaking of rest, Qiao Qing remembered that there was something to give to Yanyu.

“The national teacher usually sleeps on a jade pillow?”

These days, most people sleep on hard pillows. What kind of porcelain pillows, jade pillows, stone pillows? What kind of tea pillows and buckwheat pillows will sleep on, but these pillows are not good at all, they are too hard!

In the past, the prince’s east palace used pillows made of jade. They were very hard. If you lay down too hard, you could knock the back of your head out of a bag accidentally.

After Qiao Qing arrived, he replaced it with a soft silk pillow filled with soft silk.

In this era, there is no cotton that can be used for weaving in later generations. Some only have kapok, and the output is very low. They are basically used to fill quilts, so nobles can afford it.

But kapok is obviously not soft enough, and natural silk pillows are also excellent materials even in later generations.

“I made several silk pillows before, and gave one to the national teacher. You should like it.”

Who doesn’t like soft things, and the silk is light and warm, and in the cold winter, I sleep on the jade pillows that do not have any temperature. If you put a face on it, half of your warm face will freeze.

As the emperor, Qiao Qing doesn’t really like winter. Although it is said that the snow is a good year, once the snow falls, it is prone to snow disasters, and the cold weather will freeze many crops. Every year, many people die in the winter.

In these years, some poor people can burn carbon, but they have to save it. When it’s too cold, burn a little and gather together to keep warm. It’s still the kind of inferior carbon that chokes people.

Unlike the big family, the best smoke-free carbon can be used, and it can burn every day and every day.

Qiao Qing remembered that it would take a few hundred years for cotton to be introduced into the country from Fanbang, and it would take a few hundred years for a certain emperor to forcefully promote it, and then everyone would use cotton.

Qiao Qing has arranged the seeds of this crop and ordered the merchants under her name and others to pay attention to them. When the time comes, they will vigorously promote them so that the people can wear warm cotton clothes in winter.

Like the Shu brocade promoted by Wang Bin, silk woven from silk is worth a lot of money. These things are sold to aristocratic officials. No matter what, it is impossible for ordinary people to use it.

Relatively speaking, cotton with a relatively high yield and warmth is very suitable for ordinary people.

But the premise of this is that she has to find the cotton seeds first.

On weekdays, Li Qiaoqing is not very good to his officials, but he still attaches great importance to the people.

Most of the money she fished out from the rich was used by the people.

The people are supporting her as the emperor with all the strength of the country. Any good thing in Qi State will be sent to the palace through various channels and trying to win her the emperor’s favor.

Qiao Qing doesn’t lack anything. For a person like her, money is actually just a bunch of numbers. No matter how much you earn, the private treasury looks good. If you don’t spend it, there is no difference between the gold and sand. .

“Then I thank your Majesty in advance.”

She said that, but Yanyu didn’t intend to sleep.

Qiao Qing really couldn’t stand it, fearing that his courtier would be over-excited and suddenly die from a heart attack.

She didn’t leave either, making people take out a spare new pillow from her temple.

The pillow was placed on the bed where Yanyu usually sleeps. Qiao Qing sat on the edge of the bed and patted the man: “The teacher must rest. You should fall asleep. I will look at you.”

This time, Yanyu lay down in good faith and looked at the emperor without blinking.

Qiao Qing gently patted the back of his hand like coaxing a child: “Go to sleep, go to sleep…”

Probably the pillow made of silk was too soft, or it was because the emperor’s voice was too soft. Yanyu listened and slowly closed his eyes.

Qiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, took out his hand, and then saw that something seemed to be hidden in Yanyu’s sleeve.

She took it out and looked at it. It was a mahjong tile with 10,000 written on it. But unlike the previous tiles, there was a picture carved on the back of this tile. Qiao Qing took a closer look and found that it was her impressively carved. s face.
