Yan Xiaofeng would not meet the officials at the dinner table, so he got up and left.

Before leaving, he glanced at the two people who were happily feeding and being fed, his eyes darkened a little.

After he left, Yan Ruyue dared to speak loudly, "Zhi Zhi, did you feel cold just now?"

Yan Zhizhi felt it seriously, and shook his head, "It's not cold, it's warm."

She grabbed the chopsticks by herself and picked up a piece of chicken for Yan Ruyue, "Sister, eat more, so you won't be cold."

Yan Ruyue began to eat happily.

After a while, the sound of conversation from outside came.

The two people who were eating had the same expressions and actions, tilting their heads and moving their ears.

Yan Zhizhi vaguely heard the word 'waterwheel', and thought of the boy he met on East Street, and he was very curious.

Wanting to listen, but reluctant to part with the food in front of him, the little genius doctor had an idea and stuffed a lot of food into the bowl. Then, holding the big porcelain bowl, he quietly ran behind the curtain, eavesdropping while eating.

Yan Ruyue imitated her movements.

The two sisters stood behind the curtain and eavesdropped.

The rustling sound reached Yan Xiaofeng's ears, he glanced at it inadvertently, and stopped.

In the field of vision, two heads, one big and one small, stared at him, chewing food in their mouths, and their cheeks were bulging.

Taking a closer look, Yan Ruyue was eating on top of her daughter, as if some grains of rice had fallen into Yan Zhizhi's hair.

The mood of a certain emperor suddenly became unhappy.

The Shaofu Ling who was reporting was not aware of it, and was almost elated, "This waterwheel is suitable for places with high terrain, especially those mountainous areas. In this way, there are more places that can be cultivated, and the harvests of state capitals with more mountainous areas are also higher. We Already made a successful…”

After talking about the waterwheel, the Shaofu Ling couldn't help but said, "The father of the Shaofu Cheng you appointed once studied the keel waterwheel, which is suitable for irrigation on flat land. After we research it and promote it, the harvest in many places this year may be even higher than that of the waterwheel." rise."

He calculated very well, the late spring has passed, and the state capitals with more than half of the capital have completed the spring plowing, and the rest of the places are also in the spring plowing due to the climate.Irrigation should be considered after spring plowing. As long as they study it in time, they can extend the keel waterwheel to the plains.And the waterwheel that has been researched can be extended to the mountainous state capital immediately.

Behind the curtain.

Yan Zhizhi muttered: "This lord is very familiar with farming, really amazing."

She once inquired secretly with Sun Rongfa that the Shaofu supervisor of Dacheng was mainly in charge of various affairs such as all kinds of craftsmanship, court uniforms, coin casting and so on.

But right now, what the Shaofu order said seems to have little to do with the duties of the Shaofu supervisor.

On top of her head, Yan Ruyue also muttered, "Yeah, agricultural and water conservancy, etc., aren't they under the control of the Ministry of Industry? But this waterwheel seems to be a powerful thing, and it's good to let the Shaofu supervisor who is under the orders of the royal family study it first. "

Yan Zhizhi raised his head and said seriously, "Don't the Ministry of Industry listen to what Dad says?"

"Well," Yan Ruyue didn't really know, but her younger sister looked at her with bright eyes, how could she show timidity, "it should be related to the fight among officials."

She stroked the non-existent beard with one hand, and made an unfathomable look, "Listen to my brother, the formation of a party is very serious, and it almost emptied the emperor's grandfather before. Now that the emperor's uncle has just ascended the throne, and the treasury is empty,... "

"Cough cough!"

Yan Ruyue was awakened by the deliberate coughing.

Like a frightened rabbit, she first glanced at Sun Rongfa, who was deliberately coughing to remind her, and then at the emperor, who had a difficult expression on his face, and had the urge to run away.

Yan Zhizhi was the opposite.

She used her clever little head to come to a conclusion.

Someone bullied Daddy!

Holding the big porcelain bowl, she rushed to the emperor's side, raised her head, and said seriously, "Daddy, who bullied you? Tell Zhizhi, Zhizhi will stab them!"

Yan Xiaofeng looked at the rice grains on her lips speechlessly.

A milk dumpling wants to stand up for him?

His heart was warm, but his mouth said lightly, "No one can bully me, I am the master of the world."

"Wow, that daddy is amazing!"

Yan Zhizhi praised earnestly, and after the compliment made Yan Xiaofeng's face soften a little, he asked again, "Then why did you let this lord study the waterwheel instead of the Ministry of Industry?"

Yan Xiaofeng was speechless, after all, his niece was right about the reason.

A few feet away, the Shaofu Ling took the initiative to make a rescue, "This minister is very interested in these things."

The reason was far-fetched, but it was enough to convince Yan Zhizhi, who didn't understand it.

She didn't ask any more questions, and stood next to Yan Xiaofeng to eat while holding the porcelain bowl, her big eyes looked at Shaofu Ling from time to time, obviously very interested in what was going to happen next.

Yan Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows when he thought of the background of the Shaofu Ling, "Do you want to return to the Ministry of Industry?"

The Shaofu Ling immediately broke out in sweat, "I absolutely have no such intention."

"Back?"

Yan Zhizhi quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and asked curiously, "Did he work in the Ministry of Industry before? That's amazing."

Yan Xiaofeng suspected that his daughter would praise everyone she saw, "It's amazing", and maybe she would also boast in this tone when she saw a big yellow dog on the street.

The joy of being praised just now faded a bit.

"He used to be Minister of the Ministry of Industry."

All the people present were his own people, and Yan Xiaofeng did not hide his dislike for the late emperor, "My father liked gorgeous palaces and gardens, and he insisted on finding the most powerful person to build them for him, so he was transferred to the Shaofu Prison."

As a courtier, the Shaofu Order now naturally has no right to refuse.From then on, he could only concentrate on building things that hurt the people and money for the late emperor, instead of studying agriculture, mulberry and water conservancy.

In fact, the Shaofu Supervisor should also work together with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War to manage the Military Weapons Institute, but the late emperor had a novel idea from time to time, and the Shaofu Supervisor gradually lost the power to manage the Military Weapons Institute.It was still the new emperor who ascended the throne, without any explanation, he handed over all the armories to the Shaofu for supervision.This order also aroused the dissatisfaction of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War. It is said that the two ministers declared that they would not go to court because of illness.

Yan Zhizhi didn't understand the power struggle here, she glanced at her father's expression, then at the Shaofu Ling's expression, and muttered, "This is too wasteful."

The Shaofu Ling was a little moved, but at this moment, the emperor suddenly said, "How about I transfer you back to the Ministry of Industry when the matter of the water truck is settled?"

Shaofu Ling was surprised, "Your Majesty..."

He definitely wants to go back, but the Minister of the Ministry of Industry is doing well now, where is the position for him?
The Shaofu Ling did not consider positions such as servants. He and the young man named Zhou Jixing studied waterwheels together.What's more, he suspected that the emperor had other plans, and letting him return to the Ministry of Industry would definitely give him certain powers.

"You need to answer me, yes, or not?"

The Shaofu Ling said without hesitation: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for fulfilling it!"

Yan Zhizhi secretly glanced at Yan Xiaofeng, thinking he was very quiet, "Dad was so domineering just now!"

Yan Xiaofeng endured the heat in his ears, and asked about papermaking again.

This was also one of the purposes of the Shaofu Ling's hasty arrival.
