First Lady of the Crown Prince

  Chapter 318 Glory (one more)

  Imperial Palace, branch on the moon.

  The princess was sitting on the floor exuding a faint woody fragrance. In front of her was a small long case, and a chessboard was placed on the long case.

  The princess doesn’t like the lively temper too much. The East Palace is quiet on weekdays. Only Qin Chuyu will be noisy when he is there. However, Qin Chuyu moved to the emperor’s Huaqing Palace in the past few days.

  The East Palace is as quiet as water again.

  The people of the palace guarded the princess's side, watching the nose and the heart, without making a single sound.

   Suddenly, with a snap, a chess piece fell on the chessboard, and the princess smiled relievedly: "It's done."

  The people in the palace looked at her boldly, and the female officer who was waiting next to her smiled and asked: "Prince Concubine, what is it?"

  The prince concubine smiled: "I finally cracked this game."

   "Which board did you crack?"

  The prince strode in and strode in.

  The female official and a group of palace people saluted with blessings: "His Royal Highness!"

  The princess also got up to salute, but was stopped by the prince quickly stepping forward.

  The prince held her hand, sat down beside her, looked at the chessboard on the table, and said, "You are playing chess again?"

   "I have nothing to do, just drop down." said the prince.

  The prince smiled and said: "I see you playing every day, so I like to play chess? You spend more time facing the chessboard than you do."

  The prince concubine said warmly: "The prince is joking."

"I didn't laugh, I was really jealous." The prince said from his mouth, and his eyes and behavior towards the princess were full of affection. He squeezed her hand and asked her, "You haven't answered the loneliness." Question, what chess game did you solve?"

  The prince is really not interested in playing chess, but if it is related to the prince, then he will be very concerned.

  The princess pointed at the chessboard with another finger that was not held by him and said: "This is it, Kun Ju."

  The prince was startled: "Kun Ju? Which Kun Ju? Is Mr. Meng's Kun Ju?"

  In the chess world, it seems that Mr. Meng Lao's game can be called the Kun game.

  The prince no longer loves to play chess, he has heard of the name of Mr. Meng Lao, and he is well-deserved of the Six Nations Chess.

  He set countless chess games in his life. Among them, the eight games are the most famous, and few can crack them. However, the crown princess cracked the first game at the age of thirteen.

  In the next few years, she cracked five games one after another. This kind of achievement is rare among the six countries, especially when she is still so young.

  You must know that Jin’s chess master has been over forty and has cracked six games, but he has not been able to crack the last two games of Qian and Kun.

The prince squeezed her hand in excitement and looked into her beautiful eyes: "Lin Lang, you have done what no woman in the world has done! No, you have done what no one in the world has done! You are a man! Not one or two as you!"

  The princess bowed her head and smiled shyly: "During this period of injury, the concubines devoted themselves to studying chess in the East Palace. Speaking of which, it was a blessing in disguise."

The prince sternly said: "Where? Others can't study it for a lifetime! No, such a surprise news, I have to report to the emperor!"

  The prince did what he said, he really went to the emperor immediately.

  The emperor was diligent, he had a good night’s clothes and food, and he had a good night sleep. It was late at night and he was still reading the memorials in the imperial study.

   Seeing the prince coming over, his expression did not change much, but he pinched his tired eyebrows and asked, "Come here so late?"

  Behind the screen was a small couch for the emperor to rest. At this moment, there was a low and even snoring. It was surprising that Qin Chuyu was tired from playing in the royal study room and fell asleep directly on the couch.

  The prince retracted his gaze and asked: "Father, do you want your son to take Xiao Qi back? I won't disturb you."

  That little snore, too rhythmic, okay!

  The emperor said: "No, let's talk about it, what's the matter?"

   "That's it. Lin Lang just cracked the game of Mr. Meng Lao." The prince said proudly, "It's a game."

  The emperor paused after reviewing the memorial, and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes: "Really?"

"Really! If the emperor doesn't believe me, you can call Lin Lang." The prince smiled and patted his head. "The son was in a hurry and forgot to bring the chessboard. Come here! Go to the East Palace and bring the prince's chessboard. !"

"Yes!"

  Outside the royal study room, an **** responded.

  The **** quickly took the chessboard and presented it to the emperor's table with both hands.

  The emperor’s chess skill was much better than that of the prince. He looked at the chess game on the chessboard and immediately understood the meaning of it.

  He couldn't hide the exclamation in his eyes: "It turned out to be so...Why didn't I think of it?"

  The prince and You Rongyan smiled and said: "Father, the emperor has everything to do with everything. He doesn't have much time to spend on the chess game. Lin Lang is recovering from injuries in the East Palace during this period, so he can study the chess skills in detail."

  This is not only to excuse the emperor, but also to change the way to exaggerate Linlang's excellence. It was not solved because there was no time before. Now that there is time, it will naturally be solved.

  Who else in the world is so smart?

  Perhaps a cousin who has passed away counts as one.

The cousin    was ten years old when he cracked Lao Meng’s first chess game, but he died young.

   But even if he is alive, he may not be able to do better than Lin Lang, but Lin Lang has already cracked the game.

  Not to mention Linlang is a woman, there is no better woman in the world than Linlang.

  The emperor nodded in satisfaction.

He had a slight remark to this daughter-in-law earlier. After all, he had a marriage contract with Xiao Heng, but the prince did not marry her, and she was indeed quite talented. In addition, Empress Xiao loved her very much, and the emperor agreed to this marriage. .

  In the years after getting married, the prince made rapid progress, from a reckless and ignorant boy to an introverted and calm man, of which the prince's concubine was indispensable.

   "Hmm." The emperor couldn't hide his approval, "The princess did a good job."

  "Father, this is also the first person in the six countries!" The prince asked tentatively.

  The emperor smiled and nodded: "Naturally, apart from Mr. Meng, your wife is the first person to crack the Kun Ju. I want to revise the book for all countries to announce this great news."

  The prince folded his hands and smiled: "My son, congratulations to the emperor!"

  Academy knows no borders, and there is no chess skill. This is not only the glory of the crown princess, but also the glory of the entire Zhaoguo.

  The emperor was overwhelmed with joy: "I think about it, how can I reward you, but you are in her light again."

  The prince straightened his waist and said: "That's also the vision of the son, and I found a wife of Vanves!"

  The emperor laughed.

  I can see that he is in a good mood. The one he just got was related to the East Palace-urging the prince to accept his concubines and open up branches and leaves for the royal family.

  But the crown princess suddenly gave him such a face, and the emperor temporarily suppressed the folder.

  The next day, after Gu Jiao sent Xiao Jingkong to the Imperial College, she went directly to the hospital.

  She heard about the crown princess cracking the chess game when she passed by the girls' school.

   "Have you heard? The princess has cracked the chess game of Lao Meng?"

  "Didn’t the crown prince crack it early?"

   "Oh, it's not the sixth round, it's the seventh round!"

   "Ah! She even cracked the Kun game? Didn't you say that no one can solve the second game of the universe?"

   "So, the princess is not a person at all, but a fairy!"

  Of course, there are also people who are worried about the crown princess because of the broken bridge accident on the first day of the new year.

   "She solved her, what are you happy about? It's as if you cracked the chess game. Besides, how do you know if she cracked it really or faked it?"

   "Can this kind of thing be faked? You just wait and see, it will be posted soon!"

"Humph!"

  Gu Jiao faintly walked past the girls who were arguing.

  She has no feelings for the princess, nor is she interested in her glory and achievements.

  She recently got some nitrate soil and wanted to try to make something. She hadn't done it before, and she was a little hand-cooked.

  She poured out the nitrate, sulfur and charcoal and put them on the ground.

  What she has to do is gunpowder.

  The force is not enough to gather weapons. Before returning to the strength of the previous life, she really needs something powerful.

  If she could have gunpowder the last time she was assassinated on the cliff, she would not be forced to almost fall off the cliff.

  Gunpowder is one of the four great inventions in ancient times, but it seems that gunpowder has not appeared in this overhead dynasty.

  The raw materials she can find so far can only make black powder, which is not as effective as yellow powder, nor is it a powerful explosive, but it is much more powerful than silver needle darts.

  Gu Jiao knows the raw materials, but she doesn't know how it can be matched. The difference is far away. A little change in the dosage may cause the power of the black powder to be greatly reduced.

  So she has to be patient.

  Charcoal has basically no smell, and sulfur can be tolerated. It’s just this saltpeter...

  Er Dong covered his nose with his sleeve and came to Gu Jiao’s small courtyard: "Xiao Gu! You, you, you...what are you?"

   "Nitro soil." Gu Jiao said, seeing Er Dongjia seem to be unable to understand, she changed her argument, "Well, it's the soil with bird droppings!"

  Second owner: "..."

  The corners of the second club’s mouth twitched: "You, you...what do you want to have guano soil for?"

  Gu Jiao said: "Boil."

  The corners of the Er Dongjia’s mouth twitched again, and looked at Gu Jiao, with a hard expression of expression: "...Isn't it the one I understand? Use the pot?"

  Gu Jiao nodded: "Well, you have to boil it to get the saltpeter. After filtering it, it will be made into saltpeter. You came just right. Help me boil it together."

  The whole person of the second club is not good.

  You said that you are a young girl, what's not good about boiling, you have to boil bird droppings!

   "The saltpeter is clean." Gu Jiao said.

  I don’t care, I don’t want to boil bird droppings!

  A quarter of an hour later, Er Dongjia held the sticks sadly, and boiled up the bird droppings.

  The white momo after boiling was taken out, filtered with gauze, and wrapped and buried in plant ash.

  The weather is hot, and the water evaporates quickly. In the afternoon, a few packs of heavy saltpeter will be ready.

  The saltpetre made by Gu Jiao is crystal clear, with a touch of white.

  Gu Jiao was very satisfied. He glanced at Er Dongjia, who was full of disgust, and said, "Saltpeter is actually a very good medicinal material."

  Second owner: "Don't tell me you have eaten for me."

   "Hmm!" Gu Jiao nodded seriously, "The last time you had indigestion, I gave you a packet of white powder, did you forget?"

  So did he eat bird droppings?

what! Let him die in place!

  ……

  The second owner was deeply hit, and was taken back to the room by the third son to rest.

  Gu Jiao asked the maid to clean up the scene and dispense a portion of black powder at the ratio of 50% saltpeter, 30% sulfur, and 20% charcoal.

  The little Dudu last time came into play. She filled it with water, installed it with cloth, and made a simple version of the airbag.

  She put the airbag on her body and put on a helmet.

  It was found that the blasting effect was not ideal after ignition.

  Gu Jiao increased the proportion of saltpeter and lowered the proportion of sulfur.

   Then, she was blown into the air——

  Xuan Pinghou rarely passed by here today, so he wanted to come and see his daughter-in-law.

  The main reason was the last time I went to Bishui Hutong to see my daughter-in-law, but when I met Xiaojingkong, I was so abused that I couldn’t remember what I was doing.

  Today he is smart, and instead of going to Bishui Hutong, he will come directly to the hospital.

  This will never let the little monk disrupt the situation.

  He walked through the hall and came to Gu Jiao’s yard, but what did he see?

  On the luxuriant branches, Gu Jiao was tied with a pile of cloth strips, wrapped like a small silkworm chrysalis, hung on a branch, crunching.

  She has only a small head exposed, her expression indifferent.

  Xuan Pinghou couldn’t hold back one and laughed!

  Some people just don’t change their instincts. They are obviously here to win over people. They even think of their lines on the way, but when they see Gu Jiao's embarrassed and indifferent appearance, they start to bully people again.

  Xuan Pinghou raised his head, his lips twitched: "Girl, do you want to come down? Call me Dad, I will let you down."

  Gu Jiao ignored him.

  Went a circle and threw the back of his head to him!

  However, when the force was too strong, the circle turned big, and it turned back to the original position.

  Xuan Pinghou looked at that indifferent little face, and his body was shaking with a smile.

  Laughing like this for others, it is so greasy that it makes people want to punch, but Xuanping Hou is naturally handsome and has no dead ends in all directions. It is still pleasing to laugh like this.

  Gu Jiao looked at his handsome face, hesitated for a moment, her expression loosened slightly, and her small face asked coldly: "What do you want me to call you?"

  Xuan Pinghou raised his eyebrows: "Father."

  Gu Jiao nodded: "Hey!"

  Xuan Pinghou: "......!!!"
