Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 480 Important Person

Seeing that Chu Shanzhang agreed, Shu Xiaoxiao finally relaxed. She took Chu Shanzhang's arm with a playful smile and said, "I knew that Master treated me well. I came to the academy not only to say goodbye to you, but also to ask you to help me talk to the emperor and arrange some people for me!"

"You also said that Dongjin is in danger now. Since I want to go out, I must ensure my safety. Master, I cherish my life very much."

Principal Chu: It’s too early to worry. He thought his little disciple was going to go alone, but he didn’t expect that the little disciple was so careful about his life. It’s better to cherish your life.

"You are right. No matter where you go, you must pay attention to safety and bring enough people with you. When you leave, Master will help you find the emperor to ask for people."

In addition to asking for people, he also reported Shu Xiaoxiao's itinerary to the emperor. Shu Xiaoxiao's importance to Daning was self-evident. Both he and the emperor hoped that Shu Xiaoxiao could always be safe and sound. It's just the Eastern Jin Dynasty. If she wants to go, she can go. The emperor will definitely make arrangements for the manpower.

Seeing that Chu Shanzhang was about to leave, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly took out the blueprint she had brought with her: "Master, look, this is the means of transportation I drew. This is a bicycle, which can be ridden by one person, and it's very fast. This is a rickshaw, which is used to transport people, and it's light and convenient to sit on. We can ask the court to get more and rent them to those who are waiting for work at the city gate. Each trip costs a few cents, which is much more convenient and comfortable than riding in a sedan chair."

This was when Shu Xiaoxiao was drawing a textile loom. She thought of bicycles and rickshaws, so she drew them together. At that time, the only means of transportation were horse-drawn carriages and sedan chairs, which were affordable for ordinary people.

If this three-wheeled vehicle appeared, the middle and lower class families would definitely need it, not to mention anything else. After all, sedan chairs and horse-drawn carriages are not affordable for ordinary people. Most of them rely on bus No. 11 for transportation. Not to mention bicycles, rickshaws are so convenient. Rich families don't care about these few cents at all. Even ordinary families can afford it, and the people pulling the rickshaw can also supplement the family income. It is simply perfect.

Director Chu took the blueprint and examined it carefully. He didn't quite understand what kind of bicycle this was, but this rickshaw was good. It was similar to a horse-drawn carriage, but lighter and smaller, and it was indeed more convenient for people to pull it.

Although horse-drawn carriages and sedan chairs are nice, not everyone can afford them. But this one is basically affordable for everyone, and ordinary people can also earn more income.

"I knew your little brain was useful. I will give this thing to the emperor as soon as possible. Now let's tell the emperor about your trip to the Eastern Jin Dynasty."

"Thank you, Master." Shu Xiaoxiao said immediately. Suddenly someone was needed, so even if she brought her master with her, Shu Xiaoxiao couldn't go empty-handed. But now she didn't find anything new, so she could only take this to make up the number. She had originally intended to give it to her senior brother, and it would be the same if she gave it to the emperor now.

Emperor Jingming was also surprised to learn that Shu Xiaoxiao was going to Eastern Jin Dynasty. He then took Master Chu to talk alone with them for a while. When they came out, he had already agreed to Shu Xiaoxiao's request.

A number of secret guards with good martial arts skills were assigned to her. Even the princes could not get such treatment when they went out. Shu Xiaoxiao was so happy when she saw them.

After leaving the palace, Principal Chu did not ask anyone to see him off and went back to the academy on his own. If it were not for his little disciple, he really would not like to go down the mountain if he had nothing else to do.

Shu Xiaoxiao spread her hands innocently. There was nothing she could do. She didn't dare to ask the emperor for the person alone. Others like her senior brother and elder brother didn't carry enough weight in front of the emperor. She had no choice but to ask her master to come out.

After asking for the person from the emperor, Shu Xiaoxiao left the palace and did not return home. Instead, she turned a corner and went directly to the Fourth Prince's residence.

"What? You want to go to Eastern Jin Dynasty, and your father has agreed?" The Sixth Prince stood up and looked at Shu Xiaoxiao who was sitting there drinking tea obediently. He wanted to pick her up and ask her why she was going to Eastern Jin Dynasty. He also wanted to run into the palace to find his father to ask her clearly.

Doesn't Father know how important Junior Brother is? Even if he gets into trouble, Junior Brother can't get into trouble. The bandits along the way from Daning to Eastern Jin are dangerous, not to mention that the Emperor of Eastern Jin is no pushover. If he knows Junior Brother's identity, Junior Brother will be in danger too!

You know, my junior brother discovered so many high-yield plants, and they in Daning planted the same plants and had a good harvest. Now most of the people can have enough food to eat, and this is all thanks to my junior brother. All the civil and military officials in Daning, even including my father, don’t have this ability, so my junior brother is so important!

They don't even have enough time to protect him normally, so how could they let their junior brother be sent to someone else's territory on his own initiative?

You have to know that due to the different climates in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Mobei, they haven't even figured out the sweet potato, although there are reasons why they played dirty tricks.

But no matter what, the importance of my junior brother is self-evident, and we cannot take any risks.

Shu Xiaoxiao looked at the anxious senior brother and whispered, "The emperor has sent me a lot of secret guards, so there is no problem with safety. And senior brother, I really have something to do in Dongjin. Don't nag me. I'm here to talk to you now."

The Sixth Prince was relieved when he heard that his father had sent guards and secret guards. No matter what, it was okay as long as his father was not senile. Otherwise, if something happened to his junior brother, they would not have time to cry.

Hearing Shu Xiaoxiao saying that she had something to do, he sat down and said, "What is it? I still say the same thing. As long as Senior Brother can do it, I will try my best to solve it for you."

Shu Xiaoxiao put down the teacup and chuckled: "Big Brother, I value my life. Although the emperor has given me a lot of people, I'm going to such a far place, the more people the better, right? The safer I'll be. Why don't you lend me some people?"

Shu Xiaoxiao smiled innocently, how could she not know how unsafe the society was now? Moreover, she had to go to such a far place, especially if this person was good at Kung Fu, so naturally the more people she brought, the better.

The Sixth Prince already knew how many people his father had arranged for his junior brother. When he heard that his junior brother was still asking for people for him, he suddenly understood why his father was not worried.

With my junior brother's personality, I don't think he would do anything risky. Besides, she brought so many people with her, so there is really no need to worry about her safety.

He also sat down slowly and drank a cup of tea, "How many people do you want?"

Shu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "As long as they are skilled, I'll take as many as I want!"

Sixth Prince:.............

Well, it seems that there is no need to worry about the safety of my junior brother.

"Jiuyou!" the Sixth Prince shouted without even raising his head.

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong but tightly wrapped man in black appeared on the ground.

Secret guards usually dress like this. Shu Xiaoxiao has long been accustomed to it. She is waiting with anticipation to see how many people her senior brother is going to send her.

Looking at his junior brother's expression, the Sixth Prince twitched his lips and said, "Go to the Dark Guard Camp and pick out more skilled people to protect my junior brother as he goes to the Eastern Jin Dynasty."

"Big Brother, besides secret guards, I don't mind guards with good skills."

The Sixth Prince felt that the veins on his forehead were somewhat out of control. Both secret guards and skilled guards were scarce. If she didn't despise them, he wouldn't despise them either, okay?

If anyone has extra, he would also want them. Do you know how much manpower and material resources are needed to train a secret guard? It costs a lot of money, right?

He sighed and said weakly, "Go pick fifty skilled fighters to protect the Crown Prince's Consort!"

He looked at Shu Xiaoxiao who was about to speak again and said solemnly: "This is the most I can give. If I give more, I will be left with nothing. If you want more, I will be left alone. Also, when you come back, remember to bring the person back."

The Sixth Prince's heart ached with pain. Even when he went out, he was reluctant to bring so many secret guards with him. Now he admired his own magnanimity.

Shu Xiaoxiao stood up with a smile: "Big Brother, we are just friends! No need to be so formal. I'm leaving first!"

When she walked to Jiuyou who hadn't left yet, Shu Xiaoxiao said without hesitation: "Jiuyou, remember to pick some people with strong kung fu skills, preferably those who can fight ten people at once."

Jiuyou twitched his lips, looked at his master who had a helpless expression but did not refute, and clasped his fists respectfully: "Yes!"
