Chapter 195 - The Lord's Heart
"You, hmph!" Have you ever seen someone play with a girl so calmly?
Seeing that Hong Zhong seemed to be even angrier than before, Baili Mingyue pulled her closer, forcing her to look him in the eye, her face full of seriousness: "Girl, to me, Lian Xing is just a little sister, he can't be anything else! As for the flower you mentioned, it was something Lian Xing gave her when she first came to Shezhengwang's Palace many years ago. It was her first birthday, and she asked me to gift it to her. If the girl likes it, I can find the flower in this world for you and let you choose any one you want. "Hmm?"
After saying that, the clear and sonorous voice dragged with it a long and long ending, appearing to be filled with love.
"Who likes Begonia!" Hong Zhong glared at him, then turned her eyes away: "Babies like roses!"
Hmph, isn't it said that lovers should give rose flowers to confess?
Who the hell wants you to send Begonia!
Looking at Hong Zhong's face which was covered with a little arrogance, Baili Mingyue smirked, and with 3000 feelings in her eyes, she lovingly said: "Okay, then this king will find a rose for the girl. Don't be angry at the girl, okay?"
Hong Zhong turned her head and looked at Baili Mingyue. Seeing the seriousness in her eyes, the depressed heart slowly softened. In her heart, she didn't know why she was being so hypocritical. She obviously believed in him in her heart, but she couldn't be happy when she saw other women being attentive to him.
Speaking of which … If the man she fancied was liked by another woman, wouldn't that prove that she had a good eye and was worthy of being proud of? Why did she feel so stifled when it came to her?
Although his heart was no longer angry with him, he still turned his head with a little arrogance. "Who cares if you come looking for me? Moreover, do you think that roses are ordinary flowers that can be casually gifted to others?"
"The matter between Lian Xing and me is not something that can be resolved in a few words. If the little girl is truly interested, I will tell you everything." Looking at Hong Zhong's face which was filled with a little arrogance, Baili Mingyue laughed out loud in a good mood. What should he do with her?
"Who's interested!" He answered with a different tone.
Seeing this, the corners of Baili Mingyue's lips curled up, and she replied with a chuckle, "Hehe, that's right. The little girl isn't interested. I was the one who told you. "
His laughter was as resplendent as the rays of the setting sun. It was as if everything in the world had lost its color.
The young ladies who were peeking at him were so embarrassed that their faces turned red. They forgot what they were doing and stared at him. Their eyes were filled with emotion.
Being gazed upon by so many admiring eyes, Hong Zhong felt uncomfortable all over, so she turned around and stared at his perfect face.
After a while, he said in a malicious tone, "I think when you go out in the future, you should put a bag on your head to prevent your fox face from attracting others." Look at the girls and young ladies around him, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets!
Baili Mingyue naturally felt those gazes as well. Being called a fox by Hong Zhong, he was not angry at all. With a light laugh, he nodded in agreement, "Mn, alright."
Hong Zhong tilted her head and thought about it: "I also think that it's better for Shezhengwang's Palace to go straight to Miss Lian Xing's courtyard." Although she didn't know why she didn't like it, she just didn't like it!
"Mm. Alright." Baili Mingyue nodded again, her face filled with happiness.
Hong Zhong suspiciously looked at Baili Mingyue, and then said something, but this time, it was with a hint of probing tone: "I think, uncle and Miss Lian Xing, can actually keep a certain distance. To be exact, Uncle and all of the beauties should keep their distance! "
Hearing this, Baili Mingyue could not help but laugh, "Alright."
Just a single word was worth it!
Seeing that he was so straightforward, Hong Zhong who asked for help for a prank immediately became embarrassed: "Why are you suddenly so easy to talk to?" Speaking of which, could he have done something shameful?
Baili Mingyue held her tightly in his embrace, and said with a smile, "What I say is not important. The important thing is that whatever you say is true, everything you say is reasonable!"
"Bitch!" Hong Zhong pounded his chest, but secretly laughed out loud in his arms.
The two of them being so sweet, and Baili Mingyue's gaze, which had never left Hong Zhong's body from the very beginning, made the young ladies, who were spectating by the side, feel as if their hearts were being crushed!
None of the perfect men in this world were his!
Just as the two of them were thinking of each other as transparent people, a very beautiful person appeared. He quickly ran to Hong Zhong and spoke in an excited voice, "Third Miss, the Emperor has announced that you are going to the casting factory."
"Did something happen?" Hong Zhong frowned, and tilted her head to look at him.
The man lowered his head, unable to hide the joy in his eyes: "No, young miss, you asked us to make something, but it's out now. Lord Mu was just about to order this little one to come and report to you, coincidentally, the Emperor went to the casting factory, and thought that since it's done, we can try the effect, so he ordered this little one to invite you."
"So fast!" With regards to the speed at which the casting factory was producing the steam engine, Hong Zhong was a little shocked.
"Yes." That man nodded his head, "The Emperor has assigned ten thousand people to casting factory. He also instructed the Emperor to speed up the process of forging the things that Third Miss wants."
Hearing that, Hong Zhong was overjoyed: "This is great, let's go and take a look." After she finished speaking, she couldn't hide the joy on her face as she turned around and prepared to run towards the casting factory.
Seeing this, Baili Mingyue did not keep her, and only quietly watched her happy appearance.
Hong Zhong turned around and followed the man for a few steps before she suddenly stopped. As if she had thought of something, she turned around and walked towards Baili Mingyue with a smile on her face.
Then, she reached out her arms to hug his waist and quickly tiptoed. On his well-defined and flawless lips, she lightly kissed him. Her actions were extremely quick, leaving Baili Mingyue no time to feel that soft touch as she left.
Baili Mingyue was slightly stunned. This was the first time that the girl had taken the initiative to kiss him.
However, no matter how smart he was, he didn't know why she was doing that.
Just as he was wondering, he heard Hong Zhong say in a slightly embarrassed tone, "Uncle, I don't know if there are goodbyekiss between the couples here, but there are couples there."
With that, he turned and ran away with the man.
goodbyekiss?
Baili Mingyue looked at Hong Zhong's back, and was stunned for a while. Moreover, she was talking about a couple just now … Only there were couples …
Thinking like this, the corners of her lips curled up as she giggled.
After clearly seeing the contents of the parchment, Mo Chen chased after Baili Mingyue. Based on his many years of research and experience with master's cold poison, he was certain that the prescription on the parchment might have been used to remove the Ten Thousand Gu Cold Poison in master's body!
If he remembered correctly, this box was given to her by the Red Third Miss, then he must ask her clearly where this prescription came from!
Who knew that right after arriving here, he would see the scene of Hong Zhong and Baili Mingyue kissing farewell, and then the smile on Baili Mingyue's face. At that moment, other than speechlessness, Mo Chen could not find any words to describe the thoughts in his heart.
Is master wrong?
It was one thing for the two of them to love each other on the streets, but to think that there would be such a goodbyekiss, and they even wanted to kiss after they left. More importantly, the usual aloof master had a sweet and strange smile on his face.
Could it be because she had been restrained for too long that her master began to think of love?
Thinking about the appearance of Hong Zhong and Baili Mingyue, and thinking about how her elder sister was chasing after Wu Hen, Mo Chen couldn't help but shiver. Was it really too late to leave this spring?
… ….
When Hong Zhong rushed to casting factory, Baili Yi Chen had already arrived.
Seeing Hong Zhong, sher deep eyes revealed a hint of a smile. "You're here? I've studied this iron thing for a long time, but I still haven't been able to come up with a conclusion. Therefore, I asked you to demonstrate it to me. " After saying that, he turned around to look at the large metal lump.
Hong Zhong looked at the thing in front of him. She had to admit, ten thousand people working together was the most efficient way.
Boiler, gas engine, all available.
They even followed Hong Zhong's instructions and built a small fire carriage that was around two meters wide and was connected to a gas machine.
The steam engine had already been installed according to Hong Zhong's blueprint. On the surface, it looked like it was installed exactly as well, but whether it could be used or not was still to be determined. "Then let's give it a try."
When Mu Han and Mu Yun heard this, they immediately sent men to start a fire and burn coal.
In these past few days, Mu Han and the others had produced many more tracks, and even brought them out from casting factory. It was also because this mysterious big thing was too heavy, that was why Hong Zhong told them to produce spare parts and directly assemble them on top of the tracks.
Not long after, a lot of steam emerged. Baili Yi Chen looked at the hot iron fellow and was puzzled. "Hong Zhong, what the hell are you doing?" What was this smoke!
Hong Zhong looked at the steam engine that was emitting hot air, and was in a good mood. She crossed her hands in front of her chest: "Next up, let's convert this heat energy into kinetic energy, and then we will be able to achieve the desired result!"
"Convert heat into kinetic energy?" Baili Yi Chen looked at Hong Zhong with obvious doubt in his eyes, "You're talking about a language that we don't understand again. We really don't know why you have such a strange phrase in your head."
Hong Zhong laughed mysteriously: "You don't understand a lot of things? However, as long as you believe me, I promise I won't let you down. "
"Yes." Baili Yi Chen nodded, "Then what are we going to do next?"
"Wait!" "Let's go, I'll bring you up to take a look." Hong Zhong smiled mysteriously and pulled Baili Yi Chen onto the carriage of the small train. He then waved towards Mu Han and Mu Yun, "You guys follow me up as well.
Hearing this, Mu Han, Mu Yun, and Hong Zhong were overjoyed. They quickly followed Hong Zhong onto the train.
They had followed Hong Zhong around for a long time, so they were incredibly happy that they were the first to witness a miracle.
A total of five Furnace Lords took turns to add fuel to the gas furnace, and not long later, the water vapor in the boiler reached the desired effect of Hong Zhong. Hong Zhong walked forward and flipped a switch, and explained, "Your Majesty, we are now using the overheated steam formed by the water in the boiler to expand into the steam engine by the expansion of the steam, and to push the piston on the gas engine. The resulting linear motion, with the wheels moving in a circular motion and the locomotive moving wheels rotating, thus pulling the train forward. "
Baili Yi Chen didn't really understand Hong Zhong's words, but the two brothers Mu Han and Mu Yun, who were behind him, did.
This was also thanks to Hong Zhong explaining the principles behind the test. But they were skeptical about it before, so they decided to test it out today.
Not long after, the air pressure inside the steam engine was sufficient. After a loud explosion was heard from the front, the entire carriage shook under the effect of the steam pressure.
It was unknown whether it was his subconscious or something, but Baili Yi Chen's expression changed as he quickly reached out his arm to protect Hong Zhong in his embrace. He looked around with furrowed brows, and although it was true that this thing was something Hong Zhong had researched, the outcome would not be known!
Hong Zhong was also shocked by the shock. As a result, she did not realise that she was being protected by Baili Yi Chen, and just as she was about to go up to check what was wrong, the train wheels made a sound of friction and the train slowly moved along the tracks.
Hong Zhong's face lit up, and she moved!
In other words, the first part was a success!
Then, the train began to move faster and faster as it slowly moved forward along the tracks.
Mu Han, Mu Yun, and the others all had shocked expressions as they felt the wind blowing past their ears and the scenery slowly turning backwards. God knows that they were still very nervous after putting on such a big show.
Thinking back to what Hong Zhong had told them before, for such an iron-clad fellow to be able to move dozens of large carriages, it was indeed a breakthrough for the transportation of Southern Qi.
And they, they were honored to be the creators of this leap!
