Chapter 139 The most important weapon of the country
Jiang Sining does not allow extravagance and waste, so the palace dinner now is not much different from that in Liuyun Village. The imperial chefs in the imperial kitchen all sighed privately that they have never seen such an emperor and empress, making them feel as if they have no use for all their skills.
But it is a palace after all, so although the food can be prepared casually, the dining environment is much better.
Sitting at the large dining table, without anyone to serve them, the two of them ate dinner in silence.
The food they had cooked previously had gone cold, so the imperial chef made mutton noodle soup for them again. In this cold winter, eating it warmed their bodies.
"Queen, why don't you just take a rest today."
After dinner, Si Chenan suggested.
"it is good."
In the past month, Jiang Sining stayed up until two or three in the morning every day in order to compile teaching materials. Even when she was sleepy, she did not go back to the dormitory, but just took a nap in the temporary room in the university and got up before dawn.
So even with the spiritual spring water, she was indeed tired.
And she has never slept in the palace yet. Now that she is back in the palace today, she will try out what the queen's phoenix bed feels like.
In ancient times, the emperor and empress lived separately.
The emperor lives in the bedroom and the empress lives in the East Palace. Although they are very close, if the emperor does not go to the East Palace, the empress will have to stay alone in her empty bed.
Seeing that Jiang Si Ning was not working overtime, Si Chen An's expression changed slightly and he said, "I will send the queen back to the palace."
It was probably the first time in the history of Daxia that the emperor sent the empress away, but the maids and guards had long been accustomed to it. In their hearts, this empress, who was so beautiful that people dared not look directly at her, had a much higher status than the emperor.
The two walked towards the East Palace in silence. No one knew what Si Chenan was thinking, while Jiang Sining's mind flew back to that distant world.
Who would have thought that after only being in this world in the book for more than a year, she actually overthrew the heroine in the original work and became the queen herself.
If it were in the past, she wouldn't even dare to think like this.
But since it has become a fact, let's do it well. First, let Si Chenan complete the land reform, and then reform the national management system according to her plan. At the same time, she will compile the textbooks, promote learning throughout the country, and implement compulsory education and a modern examination system.
Once all this was done, she felt she would be able to get away and see the world.
While they were thinking, the two had already walked into the gate of the East Palace.
Si Chenan did not stop at the door, but walked Jiang Sining into the bedroom.
Seeing this, the accompanying maid tactfully withdrew and closed the door for the two of them.
When there were only two people left in the spacious room, Jiang Sining finally brought his thoughts back to reality and felt a little embarrassed.
The last time Si Chen'an's life was hanging by a thread, she forcefully kissed him for some unknown reason, and she has never mentioned the incident again until now.
Now the two of them were in the same room, in the bedroom, and this ambiguous atmosphere made both of them a little overwhelmed.
In the end, Jiang Sining was more relaxed. He stretched and said, "Why don't you sleep here tonight?"
Si Chenan didn't know whether he was shy or excited. He felt like he was electrocuted. He was stunned for several seconds before replying, "Okay."
Jiang Sining looked around and found that there was no bathroom in the bedroom, which felt very inconvenient.
To wash your face and brush your teeth, you have to fetch water from the next room.
Si Chen An understood what he meant and immediately ran to the next room and brought over a basin of warm water.
Jiang Sining felt that he was the first and the last to let the emperor bring him water to wash his face.
"Assign someone to me tomorrow," Jiang Sining said as he washed his face, "I'll teach him how to lay sewers, and once he learns, he can quickly build the drainage facilities in the capital."
"it is good."
After washing his face, Si Chenan changed the basin of water and let Jiang Sining soak her feet.
Putting her feet into the hot water, Si Chenan squatted down in front of the basin, put his hands into the water, and gently massaged Jiang Sining's feet. Jiang Sining had never enjoyed the service of having her feet washed by someone else, and although she was a little uncomfortable, the comfortable feeling instantly made all the fatigue in her body disappear by half.
"By the way, the blacksmiths from Liuyun Village will be here in the next few days," Jiang Sining added, "I want to arrange for them to go to the university and set up a branch to specialize in casting, smelting, and the development of various weapons and various new machines."
"This is very good."
Si Chenan saw with his own eyes the machines made by Jiang Sining, and he had also witnessed the power of gunpowder. These things played an indispensable role in enabling him to lead the rebel army all the way to the capital easily.
So in his opinion, this is definitely a national treasure. Even if Jiang Sining didn't mention this, he would assign these people to the Ministry of Industry and make use of them.
Now that Jiang Sining wanted to send them to university, he naturally wanted it more than ever.
"The university now has the College of Arts, College of Mathematics, College of Civil Service, College of Military Affairs, College of Medicine, College of Agriculture, College of Commerce, and College of Civil Engineering," Si Chenan asked, "So what should the new branch be called?"
Jiang Sining said: "Let's call it the School of Metallurgy and Machinery."
"Okay, tomorrow I...tomorrow I will go to the court to seek the opinions of the ministers, and then arrange to set up the Metallurgical and Mechanical College." Si Chenan thought for a while and said, "This matter is more important. I want Dong Ling to be in charge. What do you think, Queen?"
"Isn't Dong Ling the commander of the palace guards? Can he handle it?"
"There's nothing to defend in the palace. Even if an assassin comes in, you and I can easily deal with it," Si Chenan said, "So instead of letting Dong Ling idle all day, it's better to give him something to do. Besides, the university is an important place in the country, even more important than the palace. I won't feel at ease if I don't send a capable person to watch over it."
"Then let him go. He can also learn something from me."
If Dong Ling knew that such an important matter as appointing him as the dean of the first college of the university was actually decided by Si Chenan and Jiang Sining while they were washing their feet, I wonder what he would think.
Si Chenan brought a soft towel and dried Jiang Sining's feet. Finally, he mustered up the courage to say, "Queen, how about... I carry you over?"
Seeing that he still looked reserved, Jiang Sining couldn't help but laugh. She opened her arms and let Si Chenan carry her to the soft big bed.
After Si Chenan finished washing up and quietly got into bed, he felt a sweet-smelling person crawling in. Jiang Sining, who was already half asleep, stretched out her arms and hooked them around his slender neck.
It's freezing cold, so it's warmer if two people sleep together.
Unfortunately, there are still many things that have not been completed at the moment, so although the relationship between the two is almost there, there are some things that cannot be done now.
However, in view of Si Chenan's recent performance, Jiang Sining still put her red lips close to him and rewarded him with a long and sweet kiss.
After a long while, Jiang Sining said softly, "Okay, go to sleep."
"it is good."
Si Chenan was already satisfied enough to receive Jiang Sining's sweet kiss again, and he held Jiang Sining in his arms obediently.
He felt that the fairy queen could be so intimate with him, which was enough for his life.
