Daqi Emperor's Concubine

Chapter 114 Concubine Concubine, Finale (Part [-])
"I know that you are all skilled craftsmen, and you are very confident in your craft, and the test is very simple, that is, you only need to make this thing within half an hour. Whether you use wood or iron All good, now you can have a cup of tea, come up and look at this picture carefully, let's start!" Said Maca Qingwu, she sat down to drink tea, after she finished drinking this cup of tea, it was time for them to start Time to make.

"It's time, please stop, someone will come down to collect the things you have made, and then they will judge the good and bad of what you have made. Let me explain again, we only take five carpenters and five blacksmiths. Those who were not selected can only say sorry!"

As Macabara Qingwu said, she walked to the table where all the works were put away, carefully looked at the propellers they had made, and finally selected her, at least the completed propellers were placed on the rotating shelf. See if the two things fit together, and whether they can rotate smoothly after matching them together!

"Okay, now I will announce the names of the ten people who have been selected, please listen! They are Xu Su, Peng Dongrui, Lu Xueru, Dong Cangsong, Zhou Pu, Li Zidong, Meng Lulu, Xue Qinglin, Mo Ruhu, Zhang Guangyi, and others You can go back now, and each person will be given a repatriation fee of ten taels of silver, thank you for your hard work!" Maca Qingwu reported the names of the ten selected people, and then said to the others.The guards came forward and took the unselected people out of the door one by one to deal with the repatriation fee.

"Okay, for those of you who have been selected, this afternoon is my opportunity for you to communicate with your family members. Someone will send the letters you wrote to your family members one by one, because in the next month, you will I will not be able to meet anyone, but to do something together, and when the task is successful, there will be rewards!" Maca Qingwu said and walked out, and naturally someone gave it to her The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were given to them.

"Here are the various parts inside the plane. There are a total of 235 parts, including the outer wings, propellers, and all the parts inside that are responsible for controlling the entire plane. Please come and watch carefully. One part needs to be ten, because the total To make ten planes, please choose [-] parts and start to make them yourself!" said Maca Qingwu, pointing to the paper pasted on the big wooden board.

"Master Makoto, the next question is, if these parts are completed, can they really be assembled into an airplane? And can this airplane really go to the sky? Because there has never been such a thing before, so I have some doubts .” Mo Ruhu looked at the more than 40 wooden boards surrounding him and others, thought for a while, and asked.

"Yes, it will definitely work! Ten of you, please don't be confused, and don't hesitate. Since I asked you to come here and let you do these things, I am sure that this plane will be successful in the end! Now please choose your own. Twenty parts are being made, and ten parts are made for one part, and the total is two hundred, which is not too small!" Macabara Qingwu answered him very affirmatively.After her voice fell, everyone naturally began to choose, because as she said, this job is not easy!

Half a month later, Ma Qingwu inspected another batch of parts they made, and then returned to the palace before Zishi, because she had promised Qi Hongyi that no matter how busy she was, she would definitely return to the palace once every five days , to meet the children, and also to him.And now 177 parts have been prepared, and there are still more than 50 parts to be completed. At that time, we can enter the assembly stage of the aircraft!

"Qingwu, are you back? I made someone make supper, you come and eat some and sleep!" After returning to [Bi Shui Pavilion], Qi Hongyi's voice was still heard as before, and Ma Qingwu smiled softly .Because in the past half a month, after she came back every five days, she could hear his voice, no matter how late it was!
"Qingwu, I know you won't stop until the matter is finished, so I won't tell you to stop and don't continue, but I hope you can take good care of yourself when you live outside , don’t let yourself be hungry, tired, or cold. Since you are going as a supervisor to confirm whether the things they make are qualified, then you won’t do it, but what needs to be consumed is your attention and mind. Think about it On the contrary, the heart and eyes are more tired, you must pay attention to rest. And Nianyi, Nianyu and Brother Rui miss you very much, saying why you mother can't see you for several days..."

When Mackerel Qingwu was having supper, Qi Hongyi talked a little bit.This has been the case these few times. When Saber Qingwu was eating, he would say what he wanted to say, how he missed her, and how the three children cared for her. I almost finished eating, and then naturally I slept peacefully all night!

"Okay, Hongyi, I know, whether it's your missing me or the children's concern for me, I know it all! But fortunately, in five days, all the parts will be ready, and it will be ready by then." It has entered the assembly stage, and it will take five days at most before the plane can take off smoothly. It is expected that the 'artificial rainfall' will be completed within a month, and it will definitely be possible." Mackerel Qingwu eats After supper, he answered Qi Hongyi's words.

"I know, that's all I'm saying. After all, you're working so hard for me. Well, since the supper is over, let's take a good rest! Although it is said that you will rest immediately after eating It’s bad, but there’s nothing you can do now in your situation, you come back very late every time, and the next day when I go to court, you will also leave the palace.” Qi Hongyi put the empty bowl back In the food box, he said.

"Well, that's good, this time I can wait until I have breakfast before going out, because as you said, I haven't seen the three children for a long time, so I'll meet them tomorrow morning , I really miss them too!" Macabara Qingwu thought for a while and said like this.Because the growth of children is actually very important, even if you only miss a few days, you will miss a lot of wonderful shots!
"Of course that's fine, but before you accompany them and leave the palace, you must bid them farewell. Now that the children are grown up and know some things, it's not so easy to coax!" Qi Hongyi said with a smile.Because children's dependence on and trust in their parents is natural, parents should have enough patience and gentleness when facing their children.

"Mom, I finally see you! What have you been up to lately? We asked Dad, but Dad would only say you were busy, but he wouldn't tell us what you were up to, so now, Mom, can you tell us, you What are you busy with, and how long will you be busy?" Bao Qingwu hugged Qi Nianyu who was rushing towards her, and asked very seriously after listening to her childish voice.

"Mother is doing a big thing. As for what it is, I can't tell you now, but you will know later. Also, although mother is not busy yet, I am only concerned about you all the time. Yes, within half a month at most, I will be busy, and I will be with you when the time comes, so before that, you have to wait patiently!" Mackerel Qingwu pinched the child's small face and said.

"Oh! Then mother, you should eat more. You must eat enough to have the strength to do things. Since you have said, mother, that you can be busy in half a month at most, then Before that, of course we will wait for mother, after that mother will always be with us like before, this is enough for us!" Qi Yirui said sensiblely.Because he knew that as long as what mother said was true, she never failed to keep what she promised them.

"You're so good, you're really my mother's sweet baby! Come on, let my mother give you a kiss! Hmm..." Hearing the child's childish but sensible words, Ma Qingwu's eyes unconsciously began to shed tears, and then After being moved, he squatted down, kissed the three of them on the cheeks one by one, and hugged them again.

"Okay, now the parts have been completed, the next step is to assemble! The six of you are specially selected and have the ability of photographic memory, so now please watch every movement of me, and then follow my instructions. Action sequence, start to assemble the aircraft. I will divide it into five parts, you just need to see clearly, and then do the assembly of each part! Now start to see clearly!" Said Maca Qingwu, and started to move, putting one by one The parts were installed one by one, and it was not until more than 40 parts were installed that they stopped and signaled the six of them to start.

"This is not the case here. You must install this part first, and then install the next part. Otherwise, if this part is lost, the subsequent parts will be installed, and it will be useless... The latter part here is this assembly. Here, and then this is installed here, the order can not be wrong... Okay, the parts of this part have been installed, let us start the assembly of the next part, you can see clearly, the assembly of the second part is from This one part starts..."

Maca Qingwu said seriously, her movements were also flexible and non-stop, because her movements were not very fast, just to let the six of them see clearly.The assembly of her aircraft is not about the speed, but mainly to explain the order clearly to them, so that they can clearly see the assembly of each part, without the slightest mistake in the middle, so that the six of them can work together. The assembled aircraft was successfully completed in the end.

Another five days have passed, and Ma Qingwu returned to the palace in the afternoon, because the assembly of the ten planes has been completed, and it will enter the stage of test flight tomorrow, even though she has confirmed that all ten planes have been completed. It's all assembled, but she's still going to be a little nervous until the test flight is successful, hope everything goes well!

"Hongyi, tomorrow you will take the national teacher and some ministers who don't believe that the plane can successfully fly to the outside of the palace. Let's witness the test flight of this plane together!" Qi Hongyi said mackerel Qingwu affirmatively, this is her Her confidence is also her confidence!
On the second day, Saber Qingwu led everyone to a square where the plane she had assembled by herself was placed there.Because what she made was to allow two people to sit, and then the doors could be opened from both sides, so naturally two people got on it now.It was Maca Qingwu and another person with a photographic memory who went up, and he took another person with a photographic memory to operate the second plane. By analogy, ten planes could go smoothly one by one. Test flight!
"Your Majesty, Concubine Ji is now taking Wu Tianshu up for a flight test. Your Majesty, please rest assured that Concubine Ji will go up safely and come back smoothly!" Ma Qingwu knelt down and saluted Qi Hongyi.Because even though she is Qi Hongyi's concubine Hui, such a guarantee is necessary in front of the ministers at this time, so she must be serious.

"Okay, I allow my concubine to take Wu Tianshu to the test flight of the plane. I believe that my concubine will not let me down!" Qi Hongyi also understood the meaning of what she did at this time, so he agreed with every word and gave her absolute freedom. trust.

"Wu Tianshu, wait until you are optimistic about my operation. If you don't understand, just use the camera I gave you to take pictures of my actions. Then take a good look. Anyway, it's not that we get off the plane. You have to do the first step immediately." The test flight of the second plane is over, so don't worry, just keep your mind steady!" After getting on the plane, Ma Qingwu said to Wu Tianshu, and after she nodded in understanding, she pulled up the joystick and started the flight The test flight of the aircraft took place.

"Your Majesty, this plane is flying higher and higher, and the ministers are already invisible, so how can we confirm that this plane is really successful in the test flight?" Sabawa Zeyu looked at the plane that was no longer visible, Qi Hongyi asked.Because he didn't expect that this plane would be made by Maca Qingwu, and now he wants to let himself witness the smooth take-off of this plane, he doesn't know why the emperor would do this.

"Ai Qing, don't worry, just wait for the plane to fly back smoothly, then it means the test flight is successful, and that's why I asked Ai Qing to watch here today!" Qi Hongyi glanced at Ban Zeyu , replied this way.But even though he looked calm on the surface and believed in Maca Qingwu in his heart, he was still worried, worried about whether the test flight of the plane was successful, worried about her safety, but all he could do now was to wait patiently. Believe her!

Half an hour later, the plane landed smoothly. Ma Qingwu took off the hat on his head, and Qi Hongyi saluted again: "Your Majesty, concubine Ji is lucky, the test flight of the plane was successful!"

"Okay, okay! Come here, let's serve wine, I want to have a good drink with my lovers, to celebrate the successful test flight of the plane, hahaha..." Qi Hongyi laughed out loud, showing his good mood at this time.Because although Maca Qingwu has repeatedly stated before that the aircraft will definitely be able to test successfully, but only after seeing it with his own eyes and being completely sure, can he be 100% at ease!
At the beginning of Sishi, the second plane successfully took off; halfway through Sishi, the third plane successfully flew; at a quarter of noon, the fourth plane successfully flew; success!
The next day, Ma Qingwu asked people to start making gunpowder, because her dry ice had already been made, and now she was going to make [-] parts of gunpowder, when the time came, the gunpowder and dry ice would be tied to the arrow, and then When it is about to reach the cloud layer, fly towards the cloud layer, and then drive the plane to escape quickly before the gunpowder explodes, so that a lot of rain will fall.Moreover, the sound of the gunpowder explosion is somewhat similar to the thunder, so this 'artificial rain' is not too abrupt.

"Qingwu, I understand what you said, but this gunpowder is very dangerous. And you also said that from the time you shoot the arrow until the gunpowder explodes and then the rain falls, it will not exceed a few hectares at most, until Are you sure that you will be able to escape smoothly?" Qi Hongyi asked after listening to Ma Qingwu's explanation.

"Hongyi, you should understand that the reason I did this is not only to help you, but also for my own selfishness. Because of my previous two promotions, one was because I gave birth to three children, and the other was After solving the plague, and this time because of the continuous high temperature and the possible outbreak of famine, I did the 'artificial rainfall' in advance, and I will be safe and sound, you believe me!" Mackerel light dance I also understand his worry, but this matter must be done by herself, so she will not back down in the slightest!
"Okay, since you said so, then I promise you. But Qingwu, if you are really in danger, then you must take care of yourself and don't care about the people around you. I would rather you be yourself, as long as you can take care of yourself." Yes, I don’t ask for anything!” Qi Hongyi said, and hugged Saber Qingwu tightly, with great strength, which made Saber Qingwu clearly feel his uneasiness, fear, worry and urgency, and she also She didn't say anything, just hugged him gently, making him feel at ease slowly.

At Sishi the next day, [-] people flew these ten planes into the sky, because they had to go straight up, so Ma Qingwu naturally installed something for communication on the plane, and everyone would shoot the arrows together. Get out, and fly the plane away quickly before the dynamite goes off.Because it takes a quarter of an hour to go up, and a quarter of an hour to come down, the total time is half an hour, plus the time of staying and shooting, it will take at least half an hour, and it takes more than half an hour to go back and forth. So hurry up, it's important to act fast!

"Okay, now take out the arrows you have prepared. Everyone draw the bows. I will count one, two, three, and let's release the arrows together! One, two, three!" After Maba Qingwu finished speaking, he aimed the arrows in his hands at the arrows. The clouds shot out, and the 18 people on the other nine planes also acted together by coincidence.After shooting the arrows, put away the bow and fly the plane quickly, as far as possible from the clouds, the better!

Just when they drove less than 200 meters, the explosives exploded, and then the dry ice combined with the water condensed in the cloud layer, and the bean-sized raindrops fell and hit the plane. Fortunately, Maca Qingwu had told them before that they were all prepared, so they were a little flustered at the beginning, but they still drove the plane calmly afterwards.

"It's raining, it's raining! It's finally raining! And it's still a heavy rain. The crops finally have enough water to moisten them. It's great!" The people naturally cheered because of the heavy rain.Because of the high temperature for more than two consecutive months, not a single drop of rain fell. Now that there is such a heavy rain, at least the crops will be full of water, and the almost empty rivers and wells will also be filled. up!

"Hongyi, I'm back! Now I'm going to go back and have a good sleep. No matter how long I sleep, don't worry, because I haven't slept well for more than a month, so I will definitely sleep for a long time. It will be at least ten hours or more." After getting off the plane, Ma Qingwu said to Qi Hongyi like this, and then walked towards the carriage, but before she took a few steps, she was hugged by Qi Hongyi When she got up, she had no intention of objecting, so she let herself lean against him, in his arms, and fell asleep not long after.

While she was asleep, Qi Hongyi took her in a carriage, and after returning to [Bi Shui Pavilion], Lan Qing and Miao Qing wiped her hands and face, and took off her coat, after which Qi Hongyi naturally went to It's time to get down to business. Regarding this 'artificial rain', the reaction of the people, the rewards for the sixteen people, and the reaction of the ministers to this initiative.The last thing is the most important thing, and that is a decree for promotion written to Saber Qingwu, which will be given to her after she wakes up.He was busy for four or five hours as soon as he was busy, and when he was done, he skipped the morning morning the next day, came to [Bi Shui Pavilion], lay down beside Ma Qingwu, and slept with her.

"Are you awake? Then you get up. It's already noon. Because you fell asleep at noon yesterday, you have slept for twelve hours by now, and you haven't eaten three meals. Hurry up." Wash up, then have lunch, and then come to receive the order! The promotion for you has been decided, and the queen mother also agrees, so you just relax!" Qi Hongyi, who was reading a book, heard Ma Qingwu's words If there is any movement, just look up.

"Really? No wonder I'm so hungry! Besides, I can still smell the smell of food. I think the lunch is already set up, so just wait for me to wake up and eat it? Then Hongyi, you can help me brush my teeth and wash my face Come on, carry me to the washbasin!" Said Maca Qingwu, she opened her hands to Qi Hongyi.

Although Qi Hongyi was taken aback by her action, but seeing that she seemed to be acting like a spoiled child to him, he followed suit.He stepped forward and hugged her out of bed, then put her in front of the washbasin, wrung out the towel for her, let her wash her face, then rinsed her mouth with salt water, had lunch with her, and ordered her to change into Guiji The palace costume, waiting to receive the imperial edict!

After Ma Qingwu changed into the palace clothes, within a quarter of an hour, Li Shunlai came and announced the imperial decree written by Qi Hongyi:

[Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's edict said: Today there is Huiguiji Ji Qingwu, virtuous, virtuous, intelligent and kind, who helped the people solve the problem of no rain, and also solved a major problem for the country, so that the famine did not break out, my heart Very comforting!Therefore, Ji Huigui was promoted to the imperial concubine Hui by Qingwu of the Saber family, and her children will always call her "mother concubine" throughout her life, and her status is second only to the queen, so dear! 】

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Mackerel Qingwu kowtowed in thanks, then got up, Lan Qing and Miao Qing stepped forward to take the boxes in the hands of the two father-in-laws, one on the left and one on the right. On it are the clothes and headgear of the imperial concubine. My master is the imperial concubine!
