Chapter 399 Moon Viewing
Lu Chen took a simple shower and couldn't wait to go to the study, even without having breakfast.
This time the system rewards were much more than before, and the previous rewards were basically single rewards.
Lu Chen came to the study, closed the door, and turned on the system again.
Now there are generators and lead-acid batteries. With lead-acid batteries, telegraphs can be used in distant places in the future. It will be easier for Jinyiwei to transmit information in the future, and the Beiwang Mansion will be able to know what happened in distant places at the first time.
Sometimes wars are fought on information gaps. Whoever has more information and the more timely the information is, the more likely he is to get the results of the war at the first time.
After Lu Chen glanced at the telegraph and lead-acid batteries, his eyes fell on Yelu Nanyan's pregnancy reward.
Rice is the staple food of Daxia, and the main planting area is in the south. It seems that these rice seeds can only play a role after taking over the entire Daxia.
As for soybeans, the north is also more suitable for growing soybeans. When soybeans and corn are promoted and these two crops are planted on a large scale in the north, there will be feed for livestock in the future, and ordinary people will be able to eat meat at that time.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen's mouth corners slightly raised. It seems that people have to hurry up to open up wasteland. There are still so many fertile lands in the north. Most of those lands are black soils. Basically, they don't need too much fertilizer. Whatever they grow can be harvested.
When all the wastelands in the north are reclaimed and all planted with food, there will be no more famine in the future, not to mention the North Country, even Daxia will not have famine, of course, except for years with natural disasters.
Lu Chen's eyes finally fell on the three pounds of spiritual rice.
Lu Chen asked the system curiously, "What is spiritual rice? Is it also a kind of rice?"
[Spiritual rice is a spiritual plant, similar in appearance to rice. After eating, it can greatly improve the cultivation speed of practitioners, but spiritual rice needs to be planted in a place with relatively abundant spiritual energy, otherwise the yield will be greatly reduced. 】
After hearing the system's prompt, Lu Chen looked at the spiritual rice seeds on the system interface, thinking that the spiritual energy in this world is so thin, what's the use of the spiritual rice seeds rewarded by the system.
Even if it can be sown, it is estimated that not much can be harvested when the harvest comes, otherwise not even a grain of spiritual rice can be harvested.
Moreover, compared with the rice seeds and soybean seeds rewarded by the system, three catties of spiritual rice seeds are too little.
The most important thing is, where can he find a place with abundant spiritual energy to plant spiritual rice?
Forget it, this spiritual rice is not particularly important to him, just take some to plant first, anyway, there are only three catties, and three catties can't harvest much spiritual rice.
At this time, Lu Chen said to the maid at the door: "Xiao Huan, ask someone to find Mo Xing. I have something to ask him."
Lu Chen planned to give Mo Xing the production drawings of the telegraph and lead-acid battery, and let Mo Xing and his team try to make them first. As for how to use the telegraph, they would find someone to learn after they made it. Anyway, the system also gave the user manual when it sent the telegraph. Lu Chen believed that the Jinyiwei would be able to learn it in a short time.
…
Around ten o'clock in the morning, the front of the Oriental Newspaper was full of people. The newspapers were sold out as soon as the newspaper sellers took them out.
After buying the newspapers, people began to discuss it.
"Is what the newspaper says true or false? Our prince can actually restrain lightning and use it for lighting?"
"It's probably true. Last night, the entire Beiwang Mansion was as bright as daytime. Moreover, the Beiwang Mansion can even make a train that doesn't need horses to pull it. What else can't it make!"
"Isn't controlling lightning a fairy's skill? Doesn't that mean the prince has become a fairy?"
"Our prince is the son of destiny. What's the big deal about controlling lightning? Even if one day the prince can move mountains and fill the sea, I won't be surprised!"
...
After Mo Xing arrived at the Beiwang Mansion, Lu Chen and Mo Xing explained the functions of the telegraph and lead-acid batteries. This explanation took several hours, and Mo Xing didn't leave the study until one o'clock in the afternoon.
There was no way. Ancient people had never come into contact with these things, and they were not very clear about the basic principles, so it was a difficult thing to explain.
Lu Chen felt that he, a poor student, was about to become a top student recently. In order to explain the principles of the generator, what electricity is, and how the telegraph works to Mo Xing and others, he had to first check the principles and user manual from the system.
That is to say, he needs to learn it first before explaining it to Mo Xing and other ancient people. Lu Chen had never come into contact with these things in his previous life, especially the telegraph. When he was born, people were using smartphones. Who would send telegrams?
After Mo Xing left, Lu Chen came out of the study. He stretched and felt very tired.
It was really tiring to give lectures, mainly because of the mental fatigue.
Just as Lu Chen was about to go to Fengyun Courtyard for lunch, a maid ran over and said, "Your Highness, the princess asked me to ask you if you are free tonight. She wants to invite you to watch the moon."
Hearing this, Lu Chen laughed.
Watch the moon?
What moon to watch?
He was just a rough man, so he didn't know what watching the moon was. Besides, Wu Yunwan was not unaware of who he was. If he went to Wu Yunwan's yard, it would probably not be watching the moon, but watching people.
Lu Chen actually guessed what Wu Yunwan wanted him to do. It was probably because the electric light last night gave her a big shock, so she wanted to find him to inquire about electricity.
Lu Chen didn't care much about leaking some things. Anyway, she told Wu Yunwan that Wu Yunwan couldn't learn it.
Lu Chen said immediately: "Okay, you go and tell her that I will attend the banquet on time in the evening."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
...
In the evening.
Wu Yunwan and Murong Xueer sat in the pavilion. The red light of the setting sun shone on them, making them look more beautiful and full of the charm of mature women.
Murong Xueer asked: "Your Highness, it is you who want to find the prince to appreciate the moon, so there is no need to drag me."
Murong Xueer knew Lu Chen too well. She didn't think Lu Chen had the leisure and elegance.
No matter what beautiful scenery there was, it was useless in front of Lu Chen. Lu Chen's eyes were always only beautiful women.
Letting Lu Chen come to their yard was tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house. Wu Yunwan was likely to have no sleep tonight, and Murong Xueer didn't want to get involved in their affairs.
Although Murong Xueer couldn't leave Lu Chen's care, she was a normal person and didn't think about men every day.
Since she moved into the Beiwang Mansion, she could stay pure for a long time after having sex with Lu Chen.
Wu Yunwan picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea, "Since you live in the same courtyard with me, you should naturally advance and retreat with me."
Last time, Wu Yunwan was taught a lesson by Lu Chen for half a month, which had left some psychological shadows on Wu Yunwan. She learned her lesson this time. Since Murong Xueer was also in her courtyard, why not take Murong Xueer to see Lu Chen together.
Hearing Wu Yunwan's words, Murong Xueer was stunned for a moment.
What does Wu Yunwan mean?
Could it be that she still wants to do that kind of thing with Beiwang?
What a joke...
She is not such a woman!
At this time, the maids in the courtyard began to get busy. Since it was to appreciate the moon, they naturally had to prepare.
Soon the pavilion was decorated, the maids prepared tea and cakes, and a guqin was prepared in the pavilion.
When the sun set and the night fell, a full moon hung in the sky.
At this time, Wu Yunwan gently stroked the guqin with her fingers, and then began to play.
Lu Chen soon appeared at the gate of the yard. Seeing so many things prepared in the pavilion, Lu Chen smiled slightly, and couldn't help thinking that Wu Yunwan was getting more and more playful, and the prelude was so elegant.
Although Wu Yunwan had noticed that Lu Chen had entered the yard, she did not stop the joy of her fingers, and the sound of the guqin still echoed in the yard.
Lu Chen quietly came to the pavilion and sat down. Murong Xueer immediately poured Lu Chen a cup of tea. Neither of them spoke, but just listened quietly to Wu Yunwan's playing.
The song ended.
Wu Yunwan looked at Lu Chen, "What do you think of my playing?"
Lu Chen said calmly, "It sounds good, it reminds me of an old friend."
Wu Yunwan asked, "Is the old friend you are talking about a woman?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "The princess is really smart."
Wu Yunwan said, "I wonder which confidante of yours could make you never forget her."
Lu Chen picked up the teacup, drank a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "You will be able to see her in a while."
Wu Yunwan said, "Oh? Really? Then I have to take a good look. The one who can make yours never forget must be a great beauty."
Lu Chen smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Wu Yunwan said to Murong Xue'er on the side, "Xue'er, I heard that you are proficient in everything, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Why don't you play a song for us?"
Murong Xue'er was a little reluctant. Wu Yunwan wanted a man herself, so she hooked Lu Chen here, and she had to perform in front of Lu Chen.
Although she was reluctant, Murong Xueer still said, "Then I will perform my ugliness."
Then Wu Yunwan stood up and exchanged places with Murong Xueer. Murong Xueer sat in front of the guqin, raised her delicate hands, and began to pluck the strings. Then the melodious sound of the guqin rang in the yard.
At this time, Wu Yunwan said: "The moonlight is nice tonight. It is a good time to appreciate the moon and recite poems. What do you think, Your Highness?"
Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Princess, I am a rough man. Don't tell me about appreciating the moon and reciting poems."
"You asked me to come here. I guess there is something. Otherwise, you should tell me directly?"
Wu Yunwan said: "Your Highness is really impatient."
Wu Yunwan did not expect Lu Chen, who was full of breeding, to have any leisure and elegance. She asked directly: "I just want to know how Your Highness controls the power of thunder and lightning? As far as I know, only immortals have such means."
Lu Chen smiled and asked back: "You asked me to appreciate the moon just to ask this question?"
Wu Yunwan said: "I really want to find Your Highness to appreciate the moon and chat, but Your Highness does not know how to appreciate the moonlight."
At this time, Lu Chen moved directly to a position and sat next to Wu Yunwan. The sleeves of the two touched each other directly.
Seeing Lu Chen suddenly approaching, Wu Yunwan was about to move to the side to distance herself from Lu Chen, but she didn't expect Lu Chen to grab her wrist, pull her over, and then hug her waist.
Murong Xueer, who was playing the piano, was speechless. Wu Yunwan was really a woman. If she wanted a man, she could just ask Lu Chen to go to her room. She had to find an excuse to watch the moon.
What moon to watch? Lu Chen, this beast, just touched her directly when he came.
Wu Yunwan was not panicked, nor did she struggle. She said at this time: "Prince, what are you doing?"
Lu Chen whispered in her ear: "Compared to appreciating the moon, I like to appreciate people more."
After the voice fell, Lu Chen did not act immediately, but said: "Each world has various rules and laws. As long as you find the law of the operation of all things, even if you are not an immortal, you can also do some seemingly impossible things, or create some things that do not exist in this world, such as the trains and cannons of the North Country."
"The so-called control of thunder and lightning is the same."
Wu Yunwan asked: "So, the prince has found some kind of law, so he controls the power of thunder and lightning?"
Lu Chen smiled and said: "You can think so."
Wu Yunwan fell into silence.
At this time, the moonlight shone on the world like water, and the cold moonlight fell on Wu Yunwan's body, making Wu Yunwan look like emitting holy light, and her dignified and elegant temperament made Lu Chen a little eager to move.
Wu Yunwan was about to say something, but Lu Chen suddenly picked her up and pressed her arms on the pillars of the pavilion.
Wu Yunwan was stunned. She just turned her head and was about to say something when she heard a tearing sound. The next moment, Lu Chen leaned over and blocked her red lips.
Under the moonlight, in the yard, the melodious piano sound was still there...
Murong Xueer looked at everything that happened not far away and wanted to run away directly, but she felt that if she stopped playing at this time, she might also be targeted.
Murong Xueer cursed in her heart, what a pair of dogs and bitches.
After an unknown amount of time, the moon gradually moved above people's heads. At this time, there was more water mist in the air, and a lot of water droplets gathered on the leaves. The water droplets fell to the ground and wet the ground.
Lu Chen said in Wu Yunwan's ear at this time: "I have good news for you."
Wu Yunwan asked in a daze: "What good news?"
Lu Chen smiled and said: "Yaoyao and Nanyan both got pregnant with my child last night. One of them is a half-step master, and the other is already a master."
Wu Yunwan said puzzledly: "What does this have to do with me..."
Before Wu Yunwan finished speaking, Wu Yunwan woke up instantly and immediately understood what Lu Chen meant.
Lu Chen was reminding her that he could make warriors pregnant, and Wu Yunwan struggled hurriedly.
But Wu Yunwan's struggle was in vain.
The night was getting darker, the sound of the piano was long, and the calls of animals gathered together to form a perfect piece of music.
...
In the next month, the news that the Northern Palace was powered on spread throughout the Northern Kingdom in a very short time, and spread to other dynasties.
When the major dynasties heard that the Northern Palace could not only create lightning out of thin air, but also restrain lightning for lighting and heating, they were all shocked.
All the major forces sent out spies to find out what was going on with the so-called Northern King controlling thunder and lightning. For a while, the Jinyiwei of Yancheng began to get busy again. (End of this chapter)
