The fact that Su Qiao was personally named county princess by the emperor caused a sensation in Liushu Village and even Guyin Town for quite some time.
In order to live up to this honor, Su Qiao submitted the drawings and production methods of the wind-powered waterwheel to the court, and contacted his third uncle. He spent money to order several wind-powered waterwheels and gave them to some villages in Guyin Town.
The imperial court quickly sent officials from the Ministry of Works to the local areas to teach them how to make wind-powered water wheels.
It is worth mentioning that after learning that Su Qiao was named County Lady, Xia Xiaodie was so angry that she smashed several valuable porcelain bottles, which caused her husband to beat her severely.
From then on, she was beaten lightly every three days and severely beaten every five days. At night, she was treated inhumanely.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that the man she married was simply a beast and a devil.
The reason why her husband has not consummated the marriage with her since she got married has also become clear.
It turned out that my husband had encountered robbers while doing business outside and was injured in important parts of his body, leaving him with no male ability at all.
His ex-wife was also tortured to death by him, and the maids who kept disappearing around him were also tortured to death by his sudden temper.
Unfortunately, at this moment, even if she wanted to escape, she couldn't.
After Su Qiao learned about her news through 444, he actually felt a little sympathetic towards her.
However, she did not do anything.
If another woman was treated like this, she might lend a helping hand, but for a woman like Xia Xiaodie who has no remorse and always thinks "it's all someone else's fault and I'm always right", Su Qiao is afraid that after rescuing her, she will be bitten back.
Time slipped through my fingers like quicksand, and five more days passed in the dull days.
It was around two o'clock in the morning that day, and the Su Qiao family was asleep.
Host, please don't sleep anymore. Your man has taken action and the palace is in chaos.
"How is it going?"
Su Qiao jumped up, put on his shoes quickly and ran out.
Halfway through his run, he remembered something, went back to the house, dragged out a wooden box from under the bed, picked up a large backpack from it and put it on his back.
The Emperor, the Empress and the Crown Prince were surrounded in the Qingyuan Palace with a team of imperial guards and were putting up a desperate resistance. All the other concubines and princes and princesses were captured.
However, there is a large group of soldiers outside the city attacking the city gate. These people are the emperor's men. The old emperor should have been prepared, but he did not expect that your man would really rebel. After all, he is just a eunuch, and even if he rebelled, he could not become emperor.
Su Qiao frowned: "Doesn't he have any soldiers?"
"Isn't it said that his maternal grandfather's family has been in the army for five generations and has great prestige in the army? Doesn't he have any old subordinates or something?"
Although more than 20 years have passed, there must still be a few loyal old subordinates, right
Besides, given his personality, he should also be able to place his own people in the army.
Of course.
Don't worry, the capital is now full of soldiers and horses that he secretly let in, there are as many as 100,000 of them, and all of them are holding a crossbow that can fire three arrows at the same time. There are also large crossbows that can fire six arrows at the same time on the city walls. In addition, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses ambushed on the hills outside the capital, preparing for a siege.
With two hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and armed with sharp weapons, one man can be as good as three men.
Su Qiao was relieved.
"Just look over there."
Su Qiao banged hard on the door of the main house.
The old man woke up dazedly when he heard the noise, got up and opened the door: "What's wrong?"
