Chapter 15 The Beginning of All Sounds (4)
Xie Changyan cursed himself in his heart that he would not open any pot. He just felt that Feng Xiaoya was not like the rumors when they got along these few times, so he forgot his "great achievements". It seems that the reason why she felt that he was upright and dignified was because of his special status. For other women, he was still the tragic young master who "does not look forward to too much girl".
"I……"
"I……"
Xie Changyan and Shang Qingque spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.
Shang Qingque smiled: "Your husband is sometimes absurd, so don't blame him. Moreover, although he doesn't come, he has arranged everything about the girl and will never delay your course."
"Where? Madam, just don't think I'm prone to being rude. As for my senior brother..." After Xie Changyan felt guilty, he became curious, "Who is the bride?"
"I have never seen you. I heard that she is a girl who sells wine, her surname is Qiu."
Xie Changyan thought to himself: Oh, the wine-selling girl... This senior brother is really not picky.
While talking, the carriage stopped, and Ruyi was in the carriage outside the car: "I'm here, get off."
Xie Changyan lifted the curtain and saw the three words "Qiuluguan".
Unlike the plaques that are usually hung on the top of the door, these three characters are embedded directly on the door, and the shape is extremely unique.
The point of the word "点" is an axe.
The word "Lu" means that a fish jumped out of the vessel half of its body.
The "she" on the left side of the character "guan" is drawn into a beautiful house, and the two mouths on the "guan" on the right are two small doors.
Xie Changyan was wondering what it was for opening two more small doors on the door, and saw Ruyi jump out of the car, walked to knock on the small door, and said aloud: "After your Majesty's order, inspect the building. Open the door."
With this sentence, the axe on the character "Qiu" rotated, and it fell and cut it right on the fish that jumped out of the dish. The body of the fish was split into two, and it turned into two small doors with the character "官网".
Immediately afterwards, the huge door opened automatically.
The mechanism on this door alone is already shocking.
Xie Changyan was still marveling, and Shang Qingque had held her hand and said, "I'm sure that it's not convenient to drive in Lu Hall, let's get off."
Xie Changyan hurriedly helped her get out of the car.
Shang Qingque was indeed limping while walking, but she was naturally generous and not ashamed of this. Xie Changyan was relieved to look at everything in the museum, and she finally understood why it was inconvenient to drive in the museum. Because, it was really - too messy!
The northwest and east sides of the museum are all houses, and a huge and open courtyard in the middle is piled up with sand and mud to form a undulating terrain. A huge water truck is built on it. The structure is so complex and the appearance is so novel, which is completely different from the keel water truck I have seen in the past.
A group of people wearing short green hexagrams and white turbans climbed up and down in the car, knocking and hitting, busy with their work, and none of them were distracted by the arrival of the three.
When Xie Changyan was watching with relish, he heard a loud "boom" sound from Zhengbei's house, and the entire ground was vibrated. The pile of sand and mud collapsed everywhere, and a group of people rushed to rescue him.
Ruyi covered her head and squatted down with a "ah" sound, and shouted to Xie Shang and the others: "Squat down quickly!"
Xie Changyan pulled Shang Qingque and squatted down.
After about half a cup of tea, the ground was shaken, it was only after a stop.
A man walked out of the North House in a dusty state. Everyone turned their heads and asked, "How about it?"
The man shook his head, looking depressed: "No."
"Oh--" Everyone shook their heads and sighed, and they were busy again.
Ruyi signaled Xie Changyan to get up and walked to the man: "Where is the old frog? At the order of Your Majesty, bring... well, bring Miss Xie to visit the old frog."
"In the house. But don't go in now. The teacher failed again and was in a hurry to jump off his feet." The man shook off the dust on his body and bowed to Xie Changyan, "Wansheng Mu Jianli is the eldest disciple of the Luguan. If you don't dislike it, I will take you to visit this place."
Xie Changyan said curiously: "What is the old frog doing?"
"The teacher is studying the blue flame of Biguo and wants to use it on the road of digging mountains and opening up the road."
Blue Flame is a kind of fireworks produced in the country of Bi. It is famous for its long range and gorgeous fireworks, but I don’t know that it can be used in another way.
"How to chisel?"
"Your Majesty ordered the digging of the Yubin Canal, but there were many mountains along the way. If you do this, you would first dig a trench on the rocks, burn it, and then pour cold water to make the rocks crack. It was too slow and you would not be completed in three years. Therefore, the teacher was taking us to find a way. Please——” Mu Jianli said while leading the way.
There are paintings of several feet of continuous paintings along the way. If you look closely, it turns out to be a map of the Yubin Canal, which allows you to clearly see how the tributaries along the Wei River and the Yellow River are connected by the canal.
Xie Changyan turned to the huge water truck in the yard and asked, "Then is this water truck for the canal?"
"This is a wind turning and turning car. The wind is used to drive the water truck to rotate and can be used for drainage in Weihu. However, the current sails are not done well enough. In addition, we have also built sand transport trucks for muddy water silt..."
Xie Changyan was shocked while watching. It has to be said that what he saw and heard after he arrived in Yujing was far beyond what he had learned in the past thirteen years. In the Xie family, he learned poetry, etiquette, and law, and sought the way of natural inaction. For example, when opening the Yubin Canal, Xie Huaiyong's evaluation was "although he seized the power of heaven and earth, he benefited all the people, and was good." As for why he opened it, he would not talk about how he opened it. But when he arrived at Feng Xiaoya, he asked her to see with his own eyes, see the ins and outs of it, the wonderful ideas, and the ambitions of it.
"As soon as this canal is opened, the Weihu Plain will cause water and drought to escape from people, and they don't know how to famine, and transport materials to the north, saving time and effort. It is a blessing for us to contribute to this benefit for thousands of years!" Mu Jianli's face turned red when he spoke.
Ruyi poured cold water on the side: "You are lucky, but Your Majesty has a headache. The adults of the Ministry of Works care about him every day, and the old frog also writes and crys for poverty every day."
Mu Jianli laughed and said, "Agriculture is the foundation of the country. Once water conservancy is prospered, you can get back as much as possible."
Ruyi gave him a blank look and stopped talking.
Xie Changyan imagined the situation when the King of Yan was chased by the ministers for money, and couldn't help but feel happy.
At this time, Mu Jianli stopped in front of a room and said, "By the way, the teacher heard that the girl was coming, so he prepared a gift for you." After that, he pushed the door and moved out a large box from the room.
Seeing that he was struggling with difficulty, Xie Changyan helped him. Mu Jianli looked at her in surprise, probably because he didn't expect that a little girl was even stronger than him.
“What is it?”
"The things are messy and complicated, so girls should go back and open them."
Seeing that everyone around was so busy, although Mu Jianli was accompanying her, he was also impatient between his eyebrows, so he said goodbye: "Okay. It's not too early today, I'll go back first. I'll have time to go there tomorrow, so I'll ask for advice again."
"Okay, okay." Mu Jianli looked relieved.
In this way, Xie Changyan carried the big box back to the carriage outside the hall. Ruyi tsk behind her and said, "Female, hero."
"Then you come?"
"No, no, I can't move." Ruyi stroked her hand caressedly.
Xie Changyan smiled, put the box down, and then went to support Shang Qingque into the car.
Shang Qingque said: "I just saw you so interested, and I thought you would stay for a long time."
"I want to stay, but why do people dislike me and want me to leave quickly." Xie Changyan blinked at her, "And, don't you take me to play with those daughters?"
"Do you know what day it is?"
"What day? May... um..." Xie Changyan calculated with his fingers, "Today is Dragon Boat Festival?!"
If you were in Yinzhou, you would have heard the drums of dragon boats half a month ago. The Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Competition every year is a grand scene in Yinzhou. On that day, gongs and drums on Yinxiao River shook the sky, and dozens of teams rowed and competed, and men and women went to cheer for their favorite boat teams. The scene was very lively.
Shang Qingque nodded and said, "That's right. There is no river in Yujing, so it's not like a dragon boat. But you also need to take a bath with orchid soup and wear five-color silk to celebrate the Daughter's Day."
"Daughter's Day? What are you doing?"
"It's just a group of people gathered together in Qushui Liushang, shooting over and hitting the horse..."
When Xie Changyan heard this, he was as big as a fight: "Writing poems and playing chess?"
"Take a pot."
“This is OK.”
"And there is also a song that fights to fight grass and listens to..."
Xie Changyan lamented: "I would have stayed at Qiulu Hall if I had known it."
Shang Qingque pursed his lips and smiled: "My husband said that when a girl comes to Yujing, these fun things are indispensable to learning. You can't stay in Zhizhi Curie all the time, you also need friends."
"Okay. When will this party start?"
"The lights are on."
