The emperor shouted, "Quiet!" Afterwards, he stared at Sirou, as if he wanted to see through his daughter. "Who made this painting?" "I haven't counted this one alone, but I know the entire set of 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains'. The painters were peddlers and hawkers from all over the country in the capital, a total of 731 people." "..." "..." An eerie silence. a long time, "it is good!" "What a peddler!"
"What a total of seven hundred and thirty-one people!" The emperor's face was rosy, and although there was no sign of a smile, everyone knew that it was a sign of happiness. He lowered his head and looked at the "painting". To be more precise, this is more like a map. Common landforms such as mountains, rivers, and plains are generally drawn, but what is really surprising is that the map actually uses legends to mark out wine shops, hotels, car dealerships, docks, etc. Of course, there are also large areas of blank space. After all, it is difficult for peddlers and hawkers to know the entire picture of a province or a place. The "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" presented by Si Rou is just an introduction, or a method, a method of drawing maps. The emperor thought for a moment, but he couldn't wait any longer. "Xu Qing!" He waved at the back rows of seats in the Yingwu store. In the distance, a group of important officials of the imperial court watched the prince and princess's fight for favor from afar, but they did not expect that the fire would suddenly turn and spread towards them. Minister Xu stood up. "Chen is here!" "Come and see, come and see!" The emperor looked anxious. The minister did not dare to delay, and hurried to the emperor's presence with his robe in hand to look at the map. after that, "Is this Princess Sirou's idea!?"
He let out a cry of shock. Sirou raised her lips but did not give an answer. Take your guess. The minister swallowed his saliva and praised: "In military affairs, this item can be worth a million soldiers; in civil affairs, this item can save countless taxes and silver." He paused for a moment, "What a pity..." Si Rou asked, "Master Xu, what's so regretful?" "It's a pity that it's still not detailed enough. But if you want to draw it in detail, there are too many marked points on the map and it will be crowded. However, you can zoom in, but if you zoom in, the conversion relationship will be..." "Well, Your Excellency may wish to take a look at this one, from the capital." Sirou handed over another one. Ministers and the emperor unfolded it. It was a detailed map of the capital city. Landmarks such as the "Imperial Palace", "Daxiangguo Temple" and "Zhaixing Tower" were all marked directly on the map, while shops were marked with legends. This map basically covers everything in the capital, except the city defense. The minister sighed and said, "The princess doesn't seem to understand what I mean. I mean, it's okay to enlarge it, but the relationship between the pictures..." Sirou interrupted: "Look at the upper right corner." The ministers and the emperor shifted their gaze to the upper right, and even the eunuchs behind them couldn't help but sneak a peek. There was only a line drawn there with "five thousand" written on it. The emperor was puzzled. "This is?" "This is a scale." Sirou answered, "The scale is the ratio of the distance on the map to the actual distance. In other words, the line on the map magnified five thousand times is the actual distance." "..." "Father?" "..." The emperor was speechless. He knew why only the map of the capital city had a scale. The reason is that Sirou is in the palace and can command the guards to conduct on-site surveys. As for other maps, they could only use previous maps or military maps as the general framework, and add the new content in the legends based on the oral descriptions of peddlers and hawkers. "Stop the singing and dancing." The emperor suddenly ordered. "..."
"..." "..." The Wuying Palace became quiet. The emperor said, "Mr. Xu, Mr. Lin, and the three other senior scholars, follow me to the Palace of Heavenly Purity." The banquet came to an abrupt end. Chapter 63: Eating raw makes you angry, eating cooked makes you lustful Is this over? Everyone in the Wuying Hall looked at each other, feeling a sense of unreality. Yongjia was the first to react. He quickly came to Sirou and asked, "Sister, were those pictures just now..." Sirou nodded. Yongjia often went to her Ziwu Palace and looked at the map of the capital hanging there. "It's just as I expected!" The little girl said loudly with excitement, "I knew that my sister wouldn't do that easily... hehe... it turns out that my sister is planning something bad here~" "What's that 'holding back bad'? It sounds so ugly!" Sirou couldn't help but complain. "That's obviously it~" "Okay, okay, whatever you say is true." Sirou felt helpless when she saw Yongjia making cute eyes at her. On the other hand, what Yongjia said about "holding back evil" does have a certain truth to it. The two princesses looked sideways at the group of brothers and sisters. Everyone else was like a defeated rooster, hanging their heads in dejection. "Si Rou, you have become more capable." said the prince. It's obvious that this is not a good thing to say. Si Rou pretended not to have heard of it. On the contrary, the Second Prince at the side asked politely, "Si Rou, what exactly is that "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"? From what I can see from my father's behavior, what he saw was definitely not a landscape." Moreover, they just mentioned the mysterious "scale", The second prince was even more curious about this. But he knew very well that even if he asked Sirou, she would only give a perfunctory answer. It would be better for him to proceed step by step and start from other aspects first. Sirou didn't buy it. "Brother, if my estimate is correct, you will know soon."
After saying this, she turned around. At this moment, the Seventh Prince came over and He glared at Yongjia, "Just now, how could you speak to your brother like that? You have no respect for your elder brother!" "You dare to settle the score after our father has left?" Yongjia's face turned black. "Coward! I don't even want to bother with you!" "You! @#*￥%..." "Get out of the way!" Yongjia pinched his waist, Looking at her cute little tiger appearance, she is quite capable of fighting. Si Rou smiled softly and said to the Seventh Prince, "Seventh brother, until now, you still don't understand why Yongjia is so loved by our father. If you don't understand this, you will never be able to turn things around in your life." I can't turn over in my life... These words can be said to be quite heavy. Si Rou's ridicule made the Seventh Prince's face darken, but he could not say a word. Because Sirou is the emperor's sister, according to the seventh prince's logic, it is not considered "disrespectful" for the older one to educate the younger one. Sirou nodded to Yongjia. "Let's go." After saying that, the two left. After leaving Wuying Palace, Yongjia asked in a low voice: "Sister, how did I win the favor of the emperor? Why don't I know it myself?" Sirou said: "Because you value family affection." "Brothers and sisters value family affection, shouldn't they?" "You, you..." Sirou didn't know what to say. The imperial family is the most ruthless. Yongjia has a heart as sharp as seven holes. He knows that his brothers and sisters are ruthless but he is not ruthless. This is the most precious thing. This is also why the emperor likes her. But then again, if the princes and princesses were all close to each other, and were willing to obey and confide in the crown prince, how could the emperor still sit on the throne? I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to sleep well! Therefore, the emperor's love for Yongjia, who values family affection, is similar to his love for a toy that he cannot get. In the entire royal family, he is the most indifferent and ungrateful person. Just as she was thinking about this, Sirou felt her sleeve being pulled.
Yongjia said, "Sister, there." Following her sister's finger, Sirou discovered that Mu Shi from the Young Phoenix Camp was standing in the shadow of the palace wall. Sirou walked quickly. "What's the matter?" Mu Shi leaned over and whispered into Sirou's ear. Sirou narrowed her eyes slightly and muttered to herself: "That guy really went to Daxiangguo Temple after all..."
