She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Chapter 532 The Emperor's Arrangements for the Villagers

"Your mother is incredibly lucky. When the iron box was lost, we found a clue that it was near Jingkai City. Your father searched all over the mountains and even the lake, but couldn't find it. And yet, your mother was just sitting at home, and the iron box was delivered to her door."

Shangguan Ziqi was very impressed by Yu Yuanzheng's luck.

So many people were mobilized to look for it back then, but the lady found it without having to do anything.

"If I weren't a miracle doctor, the iron box wouldn't have come to me on its own."

Yu Yuanzheng didn't think it was because of her good luck, but because Prince Liu was seriously injured and Liu Yunshu happened to be looking for a famous doctor to treat her brother.

"That's right. But it's also luck. So many doctors didn't find the problem, but I found my sister-in-law." The emperor still felt that Yu Yuanzheng was a lucky star.

"Your Majesty, that mountain is quite large. I estimate it will take me decades to finish mining." Shangguan Ziqi said with a smile.

"Well, if Great Wei has enough iron, the price can be lowered further, and the bearing technology designed by the Zhenguo Princess can be fully rolled out so that the people can use it. Our goods circulation will be much faster, and the people will be able to sell their goods faster, which will be of great benefit to people's livelihood."

Yu Yuanzheng saw that the emperor was always thinking about the people's livelihood.

Not bad!

"Your Majesty is right." Shangguan Ziqi agreed.

"Your Majesty, what are your plans for Haiyue Island?" Yu Yuanzheng asked.

Thinking that the four girls from the Chun family were about to arrive, she had to give them an accurate answer. It would probably not be long before she would have to let them go back to persuade the villagers to move out.

“At this time, I have also discussed this with my father.

That is a treasure island. Since our Great Wei has discovered it, it is our Great Wei’s territory.

The villagers on the island are also the people of our Great Wei.

I have issued an edict to Hongchang County, asking Magistrate Qin to select a piece of land that can accommodate one thousand people.

Then arrange for the soldiers in the navy to help them open up wasteland first. Once they come out, they will have land to farm. It is also close to the sea, so it is convenient for them to go out to sea to fish. This ensures that their life here is basically the same as their life on the island.

They have lived in isolation from the outside world for more than a hundred years. I was worried that they might not be able to adapt to life outside for a while, so I arranged them together.

Hongchang County happens to be the seaport of our Great Wei. If they want to go back to the island, they can go back by boat at any time, allowing them to gradually adapt to life outside.

As for the sulfur mining on the island, that is the responsibility of the Ministry of War."

"Your Majesty, if we have enough sulfur, we can also distribute some to farmers to kill insects on crops and increase crop yields." Yu Yuanzheng made a suggestion.

It suddenly occurred to her that sulfur could be used as a pesticide.

"Princess Zhenguo is right. Sulfur can be used to kill insects. Historically, only some wealthy families have used it in flower pots when growing flowers.

Ordinary people don't have the money to buy it for insecticide and pest control.

If we have enough sulfur, the price will naturally drop to a level that the people can afford, and our grain production will increase again." The emperor said with a smile.

"You have gained a lot from your voyage this time. I want to go out and take a look someday."

The emperor is already fantasizing about becoming the emperor emeritus.

He looked at the eldest prince, but he was only a few years old and he still had a long way to go.

But there is always a chance.

When they returned to the palace, the old butler said that there were guests visiting.

The couple did not even enter the inner courtyard, but came to the main hall of the outer courtyard.

As soon as I entered, I saw several foreigners sitting in the hall drinking tea.

As soon as they saw the couple come in, they immediately stood up.

"Respected Prince Rong, Her Royal Highness the Princess, hello." Several people bowed in unison.

The leader was a handsome young man, very tall, and looked 70% similar to Edward whom I met that year. It was obvious at a glance that he was his child.

The others were also young men.

"Hello. Please sit down, please sit down." Yu Yuanzheng immediately invited them to sit down.

The couple walked to the main seat and sat down.

Then I took a closer look at the people. There were six of them in total, and I didn't recognize any of them.

"You are Jack, right?" Yu Yuanzheng asked first.

"Yes, Princess, my father knows you." Jack stood up and bowed again.

"Why didn't your father come with you this time?"

As soon as Yu Yuanzheng asked this question, the smile on Jack's face disappeared.

"What's wrong?" Yu Yuanzheng asked with a frown.

"Three years ago, my father was racing horses with his friends and accidentally fell off his horse, breaking his leg. He has not recovered until now. He knew that Her Royal Highness the Princess was an excellent doctor, so he sent me to Wei to invite Her Royal Highness the Princess and Prince Rong to visit Estria." Jack looked at Yu Yuanzheng pleadingly.

The meaning was very clear. He hoped that Yu Yuanzheng would take the opportunity of going abroad to treat him.

Of course, he was probably just trying it out. It was so far away, Yu Yuanzheng might not go, but he had to try it anyway, since Jack was coming to Dawei to trade.

"I see. If you are not in a hurry to leave, you can stay in Wei temporarily. When we are ready, we will set off with you. My emperor is also planning to send us as an envoy to Estria." Yu Yuanzheng did not make trouble.

She could take this opportunity to ask Edward for glassmaking technology.

Even if he doesn't understand, he can find a way to get it for him.

"Thank you, Princess Zhenguo." Jack was very happy to hear that it was so easy to invite the Princess Zhenguo.

Then he presented the gifts he had brought.

It is an exquisite crown jewelry. At first glance, it is really dazzling and breathtaking.

The pure gold base is inlaid with dozens of diamonds of different sizes. Each diamond has been finely polished and reflects a colorful halo when it rotates.

The pigeon blood ruby ​​in the center looks like solidified blood, surrounded by fine emeralds, forming a blooming rose pattern.

On the platinum vines extending from both sides, small sapphires are dotted like dewdrops.

Even Shangguan Ziqi's eyes lit up.

Yu Yuanzheng held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Their jewelry processing has reached such an advanced level.

"I like it so much, thank you, Mr. Jack." Yu Yuanzheng thanked sincerely.

This piece of jewelry alone is estimated to be priceless. Of course, this was in later times, and she couldn't estimate its current value.

"It's my honor that the princess likes it." Jack was very happy after hearing Yu Yuanzheng's words, which meant that the gift touched the other party's heart.

After receiving such a valuable gift, Yu Yuanzheng and his wife invited them to have dinner at the palace, but they declined, knowing that Her Royal Highness the Princess was busy recently and it would be inconvenient to disturb her.

Yu Yuanzheng didn't force it.

Now there are disciples in the capital who can speak foreign languages, so there is no need for her to receive them.

The next day, Yu Yuanzheng slept in for a rare time. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a little girl sitting in front of the bed, smiling at her.

"Good morning, aunt."

"Xiao Yue'er?" Yu Yuanzheng smiled happily. "Since you're here, why didn't you wake me up?"

The little girl, who was already thirteen years old, had a gentle and sweet smile and looked very much like her mother.

Shangguan Ru raised her daughter very well, making her as gentle and quiet as she is.

"Yuer knows that my aunt is very tired and needs a good rest, but Yueer wants to see my aunt earlier, so I will wait here for you to wake up. You can see Yueer as soon as you open your eyes." Zhong Yue said with a shy smile.

"Your mother is here too?"

"Our whole family is here. Dad is talking to my eldest uncle in the outer study, and Mom and my brother are in my grandmother's courtyard."

Yu Yuanzheng quickly got up, packed up, and brought Zhong Yue to the main courtyard.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Shangguan Ru watching several children playing in the yard. However, the movement of her hands made Yu Yuanzheng think of a possibility.
