Tang Cheng gave up the idea after she knew she couldn't go to the border. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future, and she didn't want to do things that would hurt others and herself.
The news that Tang Cheng went to the palace to meet the emperor spread quickly, but no one knew what Tang Cheng said to the emperor. They only discussed it a few times in private, which made those who wanted to watch the fun feel particularly disappointed.
The Queen Mother in the palace reacted calmly when she heard the news. She was well-informed and knew in advance that a war would break out on the border. You must know that food and fodder must be sent before troops move. The fact that Prince Wen was responsible for escorting the food and fodder was a good signal.
Once the war breaks out, the Duke of Zhenguo and his son will have to go to guard the border sooner or later. By that time, Tang Si will be pregnant and she can deal with her with just a few moves. For now, let Tang Si be proud of herself.
Tang Cheng didn't know what the Queen Mother was thinking, she was busy.
That night, Tang Cheng was tinkering with the odor potion in a remote courtyard in the mansion.
Wen Huaian watched from the side.
Upon seeing this, Wen Huaian showed surprise and a subtle expression. It seemed that Tang Cheng was refining the odor potion with ease and he was always successful.
This is the medicinal material for making strengthening potions. All the doctors made ordinary medicinal soups, but Tang Cheng was the only one who made strengthening potions and odor potions.
Wen Huaian finally discovered Tang Cheng's "specialness", and his handsome face became slightly solemn.
Tang Tang... Actually, it should be possible to make a strengthening potion, right
However, the body-strengthening potion is too powerful and is likely to attract covetousness and misfortune.
Tang Tang attributed it to an 'accident'.
I wonder if my father-in-law knows what Tang Tang is hiding
Tang Cheng, who was diligently refining the stinking potion at this time, did not know that Wen Huaian had already guessed that she could refine the strengthening potion.
Although he had some guesses in his mind, Wen Huaian had no intention of exposing them, nor did he ask her to make a jar of strengthening potion for her father.
It was his blessing that Tang Tang "forced" him to take the strengthening potion.
His current healthy body and offspring are all thanks to Tang Tang.
One should not be ungrateful.
Wen Huaian looked at Tang Cheng with increasingly gentle eyes.
That night, Tang Cheng refined ten large jars of stinking potion and gave them to Wen Huaian.
Wen Huaian: “…”
The next day, the sky cleared up after the rain and the sun was shining brightly.
Tang Cheng looked at the good weather outside and thought that Wen Huaian would leave Beijing tomorrow, so she decided to go to Puji Temple, the largest temple in Beijing, to pray for a peace talisman for Wen Huaian.
She didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but her experience was too bizarre. Tang Cheng believed in ghosts and gods and went to the temple to pray for a peace talisman for Wen Huaian's safety.
Therefore, that morning, after Wen Huaian went to the yamen, Tang Cheng arranged for someone to take care of Dabao and then excitedly left the house with a group of guards.
As soon as he left the capital city, Tang Cheng lifted the car curtain with interest to look at the roadside scenery. When he saw a wide and flat road paved with cement, he was filled with admiration.
Cement is a wonderful thing.
Wen Huaian said that the cement was put to good use, not only for building roads, but also for building defensive walls and flood control dams.
Tang Cheng came from an interstellar space with highly developed technology. Except for potions, everything he learned was destined to be useless in this ancient time when technology had not yet emerged.
Tang Xin is different. She should be from a few hundred years later, not too far from now. She can easily make things she knows. For example, she did a great thing that benefited the country and the people - she presented the cement recipe to the emperor.
Tang Cheng thought secretly in his heart.
The carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was running smoothly on the cement road.
"Miss, this must be the cement road that's been so famous in the capital. The carriage feels so stable on it." Zhenzhu lifted the curtain on the other side and praised with a smile when she saw the clean and tidy road.
Tang Cheng nodded: "It's a cement road. Cement is a good thing."
As far as she knew, in ancient times, except for the official roads which were relatively flat bluestone roads, other roads were yellow mud roads. When it rained, they became muddy and bumpy, making it quite difficult to travel. Now that there is cement, the emperor has ordered the construction of roads. Tang Cheng can foresee that in a few years, the Great Zhou will be covered with cement roads, and traveling will definitely be very convenient then.
"It would be great if all the roads in Da Zhou were made of cement, so traveling would be convenient." Zhenzhu said with anticipation.
Tang Cheng said confidently: "There will be such a day."
When Tang Cheng and her trusted maid Zhenzhu were chatting about the cement road in the carriage, the news of her leaving the house reached the ears of those who were paying close attention to her. It was easy to guess where she was going. They all believed that Master Wen would be away from Beijing for at least two months tomorrow, and Fourth Miss Tang must have gone to the temple to pray for a peace amulet for Master Wen.
After those people came to this guess, their faces were shocked and strange.
The daring and rebellious Miss Tang Si actually burns incense and worships Buddha...
It’s incredible to think about it.
Puji Temple was very popular, and there was a constant stream of women coming to burn incense. As soon as Tang Cheng's carriage arrived, it immediately attracted attention and people whispered to each other in private.
"Oh my god, why is Miss Tang Si, a cruel and violent woman, here in the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha?"
"Yeah, that's very strange. Doesn't Fourth Miss Tang always stay away from temples?"
"I heard that Prince Wen is going to escort grain to the border. Miss Tang should be here to ask for a talisman."
"I didn't expect that in just over a year, Fourth Miss Tang would fall in love with someone else. I still remember how she pestered the Fourth Prince."
"It shouldn't be so fast, right? Have you forgotten that the Fourth Prince's fiancée is Miss Tang's elder sister? You said Miss Tang deliberately got close to Miss Tang San. Is it because she is still determined to get close to the Fourth Prince and wants to take a roundabout way?"
"You think too much. Prince Wen is extremely handsome and talented in both literature and martial arts. Except for his status, he is not inferior to the Fourth Prince in other aspects. Maybe Fourth Miss Tang really likes Prince Wen. Didn't you see that she came to the temple today to pray for a peace amulet for Prince Wen?"
"… "
Tang Cheng had no idea about the messy whispers behind her back, which even involved the Fourth Prince. After she asked for two amulets from a famous monk in Puji Temple and heard that the vegetarian food in Puji Temple was unique, she decided to have lunch in Puji Temple.
Seeing that it was not yet time for dinner, Tang Cheng asked someone to book a room and then enthusiastically visited the temples of this era.
A group of women from powerful families could be seen every now and then in the temple. When Tang Cheng was strolling with Zhenzhu, they encountered several groups of them - but the women would quickly take a detour when they saw them.
Tang Cheng: “…”
She touched her watery face.
"Am I such a disliked person that everyone avoids me as much as possible?"
The corners of Pearl's mouth twitched: "Miss, you are a double now, and they are afraid of getting involved."
Of course, there is also the reputation that the young lady is brutal, and no one wants to be abused.
Tang Cheng snorted twice: "Coward."
After saying that, she walked directly towards the mountain behind the temple. There are several mountains surrounding the Puji Temple. The weather is good today, and many women from powerful families come to climb the bluestone road in the back mountain.
Tang Cheng also followed the crowd to see the scenery.
Unexpectedly, they met Liu Jintong and his group.
Pearl Four: "..."
Tang Cheng simply ignored Liu Jintong, treating her as air. Unexpectedly, Liu Jintong's eyes flashed when she saw Tang Cheng, and she greeted him with a smile.
"Miss Tang Si, long time no see, how are you these days?"
The author has something to say: Thank you all for the flowers. I’m sorry, I’ve been dealing with the car accident for the past three days and it hasn’t been resolved yet.
