Chapter 552 The Medicine is Missing
Yu Yuanzheng didn't expect Emperor Qiming to ask her what she thought.
And this question is indeed difficult to answer.
She thought for a moment before speaking.
"Your Majesty, if I were to choose, I would guard our borders and strengthen our national strength, rather than occupying other people's territories.
Because the people of other countries are of different races, and there is a saying that goes, 'Those who are not of my race must have different hearts.' They may develop rebellious intentions and bring a lot of trouble to the imperial rule."
Yu Yuanzheng recalled the history of his previous life: the First World War, the Second World War, and after the evolution of history, they finally became independent.
Therefore, those who suffer are always the lowest class of people.
The ambitions of those in power will only cause suffering and destruction to the people.
So peace is the best.
Developing people's livelihood and the economy is the best option.
"We only need to trade goods with other countries, make enough money to make the people of Wei rich, and let our children learn to read and write. Then we can continue to develop our creative and inventive abilities, far ahead of other countries in the world, and then all nations will come to congratulate us."
Yu Yuanzheng continued.
After hearing Yu Yuanzheng's words, several people fell into deep thought.
Especially Emperor Qiming.
"You're right. The people of other countries are not our kind. It's difficult to make them submit. So we should make money from them and strengthen our weapons so that no country dares to invade."
After hearing what Emperor Qiming said, Yu Yuanzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
If she was really worried that the royal family would develop ambitions to dominate the world, then she would be guilty.
It was she who opened the iron box and it was she who drew the blueprint for the cannon and asked the old prince to make it.
If her arrival plunges this space and time into chaos and war, the meaning of her coming here will be completely reversed.
She just wants peace.
As they were chatting, they saw that the monks who fell into the water were swimming in one direction.
It was the island they saw.
The broken ship's timber floated on the sea, and the men each grabbed a piece and swam forward desperately.
Shangguan Ziqi did not attack these people and let them roam around.
After this battle, it is estimated that this matter will soon reach the ears of King Estria.
Yu Yuanzheng didn’t know what he would think, but she guessed that he would have deeper thoughts and fears about the Wei Dynasty.
That's fine.
If she was afraid, she wouldn't attack, and what happened in her previous life wouldn't happen.
The cannons returned to their respective positions.
From the time it was made to now, I have only used it twice in more than a year.
Shangguan Ziqi asked each ship to check for casualties and whether the hull was damaged.
Half an hour later, the ships reported the situation. No one was killed, but more than a dozen people were burned by the fire, but they were all minor injuries and were not serious.
The ship was undamaged and withstood this not-so-big attack.
The enemy's rockets were extinguished or thrown directly into the sea as soon as they fell.
Keep going.
The following days were very peaceful. We would dock when needed for supplies, and basically stop at the same place we stopped on the way here.
The days on the ship were boring, so Yu Yuanzheng began to teach her younger sister and daughter medicine.
Yu Yuanzheng starts from the most basic and goes from shallow to deep.
But Xiao Mengyao wasn't very interested, and Yu Yuanzheng didn't force her.
Shangguan Yajing is very talented and can absorb everything Yu Yuanzheng says very quickly.
Later he asked me to speak faster.
One day, Yu Yuanzheng got up early and took one of her usual pills.
She prepared the medicine herself and made the pills herself.
Specially used for contraception.
She has not been pregnant for so many years because she takes one pill every time after having sex with her husband.
At first, she wanted to eat it herself. At that time, she had just given birth to triplets and it would take a long time for her body to recover. It would be best if she did not get pregnant within five years.
When Shangguan Ziqi found out, he let her eat all the time.
Because he knew that his wife had suffered a lot during her pregnancy, and they were already very satisfied with having three children.
Yu Yuanzheng also felt that having three children was enough.
I have been taking this medicine out of habit.
The medicine she prepared herself has a very good dosage control and will not cause any harm to the body.
The two of them were affectionate until midnight last night. She was very tired and did not get up to take medicine immediately, so she got up early in the morning to make up for it.
This medicine is effective if taken within six hours.
"Princess, what are you looking for?" Lixiang came in to help Yu Yuanzheng get up, but saw her rummaging through the drawers in the room.
"Lixiang, I have a porcelain vase that was placed in this cabinet two days ago. How come it disappeared?" Yu Yuanzheng didn't even raise his head and wanted to look for it again.
Lixiang put down the basin and came over to look for it together.
Neither of them could find it, so Taoxiang came in and helped look. They searched the entire room but still couldn't find it.
Not only was the bottle she was eating missing, but the other two bottles in stock were also missing.
This is strange, it disappeared without a trace.
Yu Yuanzheng called the four sisters of the Chun family to ask.
They had seen it before, but that was a long time ago, on the way there. They were not here during the time they were going back.
During this period, Yu Yuanzheng arranged for the four of them to take care of the eldest prince and Emperor Qiming, and they were not there to serve them.
Several people looked at each other.
Could there be a thief on board?
At this time, Shangguan Ziqi, who had gone out to search the ships, came back and saw that the women all looked at a loss.
"what happened?"
"Greetings, Your Highness. The bottle of pills the princess was taking is missing. There might be a thief on our ship." Lixiang reported immediately.
In fact, these maids didn’t know what the effect of Yu Yuanzheng’s medicine was.
Lixiang once asked about it, but Yu Yuanzheng just said that it was good for the body and didn't ask any further questions.
Shangguan Ziqi was stunned when he heard this.
"All of you go out. I will get to the bottom of this matter." Shangguan Ziqi sent away several maids.
Several people dropped out.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer? You don't have anything to do." Shangguan Ziqi really wanted to say that she was exhausted last night.
But then he thought about how enthusiastic his wife was last night, and he felt that she might not be tired.
"I wanted to get up early and take a pill, but I can't find it." Yu Yuanzheng still couldn't remember where she put it, and none of them could find it.
"If you can't find it, then just prepare the medicine again." Shangguan Ziqi thought it was no big deal.
There would definitely be no thieves on the ship. If they wanted to steal, they would not steal from their own princess, let alone steal the medicine.
"But the medicinal ingredients for the pills are not complete." Yu Yuanzheng said helplessly.
"Then..." Shangguan Ziqi didn't know how to respond.
It would take at least two months for their ship to return to Wei. He couldn't stay away from her for such a long time.
"Forget it if we can't find it. It depends on our luck." Yu Yuanzheng didn't really care. At worst, she could just have another baby.
After hearing this, Shangguan Ziqi smiled and gently hugged Yu Yuanzheng.
"Didn't you say we could count the days? Just stagger those days." Shangguan Ziqi said gently.
"You're right. You don't necessarily have to take medicine."
But after saying this, she was stunned.
