Gong Yimo frowned deeply.
Gong Che said again, "It takes a lot of time and effort, so I guess there are other tricks." He squeezed his eyebrows in annoyance. Unlike other princes who compete for the people's hearts for the imperial power, he really wants to do good things for the people... Whenever he does To accomplish one thing, to receive sincere gratitude from the people, that sense of accomplishment is not something that can be brought to him by the struggle for power.
But he spared no effort to do good things here, but there were people in the capital who spared no effort to harm him. He was not afraid that his power would be taken away by others, but he was afraid that the person who replaced him would do something bad because he was eager to do meritorious deeds.
He still remembered how many people died trying to repair a summer palace when he was young. In order to please the emperor, the officials did not regard people as human beings, and the emperor only paid attention to the results and did not care how many people died.
He didn't want... The Grand Canal, on which all his faith and passion had poured into it, was so badly abused!
Gong Yimo couldn't help reassuring him, "Don't worry, brother prince, the royal father is very righteous, he won't care about these rumors."
No emperor would want to hear that someone was more prestigious than him, but Gong Sheng was a Ming Jun after all, and even if he felt uncomfortable, he wouldn't attack Gong Che just because of this.
In order to divert his attention, Gong Yimo suddenly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "By the way, today my little captain has news and reported the production volume of the past year. My brother guesses, how many ships do you and my sister have in my hands?"
Gong Che couldn't help laughing. He didn't know how her imperial sister was so powerful. Even a shipyard could get it. It's just that shipbuilding is complicated. No big ship can't be built in three to five months.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Gong Yimo mysteriously compared two fingers.
"Two?" Gong Che shook his head, this was too few.
Who knows, Gong Yimo akimbo laughed, "It's twenty! But it's not a big ship, it's twenty medium-sized cargo ships!"
Originally, he was frightened by Gong Yimo's number, but when he heard that it was twenty cargo ships, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although this number was also surprising, it was fortunately acceptable.
But Gong Yimo smiled more mysteriously.
"This time the captain of the ship came here not just to spread news. He also brought a big gift overnight! If there is nothing wrong with the prince, why don't you come with me?"
Gong Che was upset at first, and after hearing what she said, he wanted to go out for a walk. The two of them went out quietly against the darkness of the night.
The moon was very bright tonight, Gong Yimo didn't know where else to lead a horse, and the two rode a horse together and ran towards the same place.
At this time, they were outside the city. Looking in this direction, it turned out to be a section of canal that was repaired half a month ago. If I remember correctly, it was in the valley just after the water source.
Although it was a bit far away, it was riding a horse and doing light work. After half an hour, Gong Yimo and Gong Che finally arrived at the place.
At this time, they were in the valley, and they heard the gurgling sound of running water. This section of the river had been dug, so water was introduced, but because it was in the mountains, the water flow was not fast.
"What are you going to show me?"
Gong Che is a little strange. After running so far to come here, what is there to see in the valley
Gong Yimo smiled mysteriously, dragged him and ran in one direction, because in the forest, Qinggong couldn't perform, so she dragged Gong Che all the way and ran fast.
It is autumn now, and the night is still a bit cool. When you look up, you can see the bright moonlight, a gust of wind blows, and there is a rustling sound in your ears.
Gong Che couldn't help but look at their tightly clasped hands, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.
He followed his oath, as long as she was by his side, he could restrain himself and never overstep, so this kind of close contact has not passed for a long time, and it is so long that it is nostalgic.
Gong Che looked at the back of Gong Yimo in front of her. She was wearing a silver-white men's robe with a men's hair crown on her head, but even so, Gong Che still felt that she was very beautiful. The bright moonlight seemed to make her Her clothes glowed like a fluorescent butterfly, and she led him through the forest like a fluorescent butterfly. All these beautiful things were like a dream.
After I don't know how long it took, Gong Yimo stopped and turned around to cover his eyes.
Today's Gong Yimo has also grown taller. She is tall, 1.68 meters tall, so she stood on tiptoe and easily covered Gong Che's eyes and said proudly in his ear.
"Come on, brother prince, you take a few steps forward, towards the left."
Her warm breath made Gong Che's heart feel numb, and he almost numbly followed Gong Yimo's instructions before leaving.
"Dangdangdangdang!" Gong Yimo suddenly took his hand away and let out a cheer of joy.
The moment Gong Che opened his eyes, he was still a little uncomfortable, but when he took a closer look, he could no longer restrain his surprise, and exhaled softly!
"This... this is... "
Gong Yimo smiled triumphantly! "Surprise! I didn't expect it! This is what my shipyard spent a whole year carefully crafting!"
She jumped to Gong Che's side in a few steps, and laughed loudly, "I have budgeted, not counting other tributaries and the time for repairing the embankment, the main road of the Grand Canal will be opened by the end of this year! When the time comes, let's take the lead in pulling the fiber, and let tens of thousands of people accompany us, how about giving this huge ship to the father as a gift?!"
That's right, in front of Gong Che, there was a search for a behemoth he had never seen before!
It is four stories high and rests on the water like a walking palace.
On both sides of the hull, there are countless scale-like designs, and the scales glow with a cold light, which turns out to be an all-metal body! This design is unprecedented! !
On the other side, after Gong Yimo was excited, she felt a little emotional and melancholy. She looked at the huge ship in front of her, which had cost her countless efforts. People at that time did not have electric welding, so it was impossible to cover the ship with metal. She also occasionally saw fish before she could Thinking of the way of arranging fish scales, this ship is given metal armor!
She said lightly, "At that time, as long as we dedicate this giant ship, there will be so many people celebrating the father's birthday. Under the great joy of the father's emperor Longyan, we will no longer care about these rumors. Next year, you can rest assured to repair the embankment. The tributary has been repaired, and strive to complete it within two years! Famous for the history!"
Saying that, she sighed slightly in her heart.
When she ordered the construction of this ship, her original intention was to please the emperor. After all, the emperor was kind to her, and she also had the same respect and love for the emperor as her father, but now the situation is pressing, and she has to come up with this The method to kill two birds with one stone, although it is still a gift, but the heart is not pure.
That's all... I just hope the emperor will like it! Thinking of that uncle, Gong Yimo couldn't help but smile.
