Long Jingyuan looked at her and raised his hand: "Stand up!"
Minister Tian sighed: "I didn't expect that the young master's martial arts are so powerful. Your Majesty is really amazing. You have a keen eye for talent and saw his potential at a glance."
Long Jingyuan stared at Su Qiao approvingly: "Not bad!"
Su Qiao: “…”
Of course she knows she is good, why does she need you to interfere
Minister Tian stepped forward with a smile and said, "Young Master, the drawings you drew are too profound. I have a few questions I would like to ask you. Is Young Master free now?"
Su Qiao was about to answer, but Long Jingyuan had already made the decision for her.
"Starting tomorrow, you will go to the Ministry of Works to assist Minister Tian and make sure to build the windmill in the shortest possible time."
"Yes." Su Qiao suddenly became full of energy.
Go to the Ministry of Industry, then you can stay away from this bastard.
Long Jingyuan curled the corners of his mouth slightly and sneered.
Do you think you can rest assured if you hide from the Ministry of Works
Minister Tian explained kindly, "Young Master, the temperature is getting higher and higher. When summer comes in northern my country, many places are dry and farmers have no harvest.
If this Feng Shui car can be built as soon as possible, it will be a great thing that will benefit the country.”
Su Qiao nodded: "I understand."
She didn't know whether it was a good thing or not.
It was indeed a great thing for her to be able to leave this depressing and boring palace, to not have to see that bastard's face, and to not have to see his women who brought soup and water to the imperial study.

The next day, without Lord Su's urging, Su Qiao got up early and went to the Ministry of Works leisurely.
The Ministry of Industry is actually a large courtyard with some small courtyards inside.
The furnishings are very simple.
But Su Qiao didn't dislike it.
I demonstrated the small thin wooden board with Minister Tian and others, and then sat at the table to discuss the drawings. It was quite fun.
"One zhang is equal to 333.333 cm, one chi is equal to 33.333 cm, one cun is equal to 3.333 cm, and one meter is equal to 100 cm.
So the length of the wooden ruler you made is one meter, or three feet, am I right?"
"Minister Tian is really amazing. I only explained it once and he understood it."
"No, no, no, this official is not that impressive. The real amazing thing is the young master. The young master can research such a simple and practical measurement method and tool. He is truly a genius."
When Su Qiao was discussing with Minister Tian at the table, a bright yellow figure suddenly appeared at the door.
"Your Majesty, welcome."
Minister Tian did not expect that the emperor would come to such a simple place as theirs, and hurriedly brought his men to pay their respects.
Su Qiao followed behind reluctantly.
What the hell is this bastard doing in the Ministry of Industry
She had just managed to relax a little, but he had to come here to scare her.
"Stand up."
Long Jingyuan saw at a glance that Su Qiao was unhappy, raised his eyebrows slightly, and all the tiredness in his body disappeared.
He walked into the hall with a relaxed pace, "How was the discussion going?"
Minister Tian hurried forward to report, his face full of admiration for Su Qiao:
"After the young master explained the unclear parts of the drawings, we now understand them.
The young prince also explained the construction method and the principle of the waterwheel very clearly. We will be able to make the first finished waterwheel in the shortest possible time."
"Not only that, the young master also taught me a simple and accurate measurement method and made a ruler. Please take a look."
Long Jingyuan took the wooden ruler with scales and looked at it carefully, then looked at Su Qiao approvingly: "Well, not bad."
Su Qiao forced a stiff smile: "Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment."
A smile flashed across Long Jingyuan's eyes: "What reward do you want?"
"Anything is fine?" Su Qiao had something in mind.
