The Destiny of Going to Hell

Chapter 187: Startling Steps 8 Fu Jin 17

Ruoxi only then realized that as a princess she didn't even have the freedom to go out, but fortunately the Fourth Prince liked her and allowed her to exercise many privileges, otherwise she would really be trapped to death in the backyard.

That day, Ruoxi went out with Qiaohui, who came with her as a dowry, and happened to meet the Thirteenth Prince.

Speaking of which, the Thirteenth Prince and Ruoxi are acquainted. After all, Ruoxi's theory of equality for all is something that the Thirteenth Prince admires very much.

Ruoxi saw a beautiful servant girl following the Thirteenth Prince and knew at a glance that it was a girl. She immediately made eyes at the Thirteenth Prince.

"Ruoxi, this is Miss Luwu whom I mentioned before. Luwu, this is Ruoxi."

Thirteen introduced each other. Lu Wu felt a little embarrassed. She was a daughter of an official family before, but now she has fallen into prostitution. She can't let go of her former arrogance and is afraid that others will look down on her.

But she didn't see any surprise or other emotions in Ruoxi's eyes. It was just normal, as if she was a normal person, no different from everyone else.

The three of them found a restaurant and sat down. As they were chatting, they heard a voice saying, "Thirteenth Brother?"

It turned out that Fourteenth brought his friends with him. Fourteenth looked at Ruoxi, then at Luwu, and then at Thirteen.

He really couldn't understand why Thirteenth Brother always acted as he pleased, hanging out with prostitutes, and looking down on his status as a prince all day long even though he was clearly a prince.

What he couldn't understand even more was that Ruoxi liked mynah bird?

He had seen the two of them holding hands with his own eyes. How come she became Fourth Brother's princess in the blink of an eye? She betrayed Eighth Brother!

As the fourth brother's princess, he actually went out drinking with prostitutes. Although Fourteenth Brother didn't like the Fourth Brother, he was still his brother from the same mother. How could he ruin his reputation like this?

The scene was quiet for a moment, and Fourteen said angrily, "You two are willing to hang out with a prostitute."

Luwu's expression was indifferent, as if she had already gotten used to it.

Thirteen frowned, "Luwu is an elegant prostitute, not to mention that they are just drinking tea and discussing poetry."

Seeing the Thirteenth Master defending her, Lu Wu curled the corners of her lips slightly.

Ruoxi was also very angry when she heard Fourteen's words, "What's wrong with being a prostitute?"

Who you make friends with is your own business. Why should he meddle in other people's business?

But suddenly, Yinzhen and the Fourth Lady came in. Yinzhen's face was a little dark, and the Fourth Lady smiled faintly, "It's nothing, but Ruoxi, you are my princess now, and you should put me first in everything."

Ruoxi felt guilty when she saw the Fourth Lady, like a mistress meeting the principal wife, but she soon became confident and righteous.

The Fourth Prince doesn't love her.

Listening to the words of the Fourth Lady, Ruoxi felt irritated, "Can't I have my own rights? Prostitutes are also people. Lu Zhu, who committed suicide by jumping off a building, was a prostitute. Liang Hongyu, who beat the drum to resist the Jin army, was a prostitute. Li Shishi, who refused to serve the Jin army and swallowed gold and died, was also a prostitute."

Listening to Ruoxi's words, the Fourth Lady was a little confused. Didn't she ask Ruoxi to be careful in her behavior? She didn't belittle prostitutes, did she?

But Yinzhen clapped his hands, "Ruoxi is right. Okay, Ruoxi, it's getting late. Let's not disturb Thirteenth Brother's fun. Come back home with me."

Fourteen's eyes widened. Is this still his cold and icy fourth brother?

Yinzhen walked out holding Ruoxi's hand, the two of them were in front, and the Fourth Lady followed behind. From a distance, it seemed as if Yinzhen and Ruoxi were husband and wife.

Before it was Li, now it is Ruoxi, Yinzhen has always lowered his bottom line towards them, and although she has been with Yinzhen since childhood, she has never received his true love.

After returning home and testing again, Ruoxi finally confessed to Yinzhen.

"Although I remember what I need, I forgot the quantity. I still need the craftsmen to experiment."

Listening to Ruoxi's words, Yinzhen's mask began to crack inch by inch, but he soon put on a smile again. At least she still knew what was needed.

Isn't it just time to experiment with the ratio? You can afford it.

"What do you need? I'll ask Gao Wuyong to prepare it."

"We need some limestone, clay, and gypsum. Then we need to crush the limestone into small pieces like clay, mix it with the clay, and calcine it in a furnace. The temperature of the furnace must be at least the same as that of an ordinary iron smelting furnace. As for the calcination time, I don't know either. We can calcine it for an hour first."

After listening, Yinzhen patiently picked up some food for Ruoxi and left in a hurry after finishing the meal.

The secret guards sent by Kangxi reported all of this in detail, and the craftsmen ordered by Yinzhen were constantly grinding and burning stones, and then adding water and stirring them after they were burned.

While calcining and testing, he was also recording something.

“Do you need river sand?”

Kangxi was a little confused. He rubbed his eyebrows. He felt that he was a knowledgeable person with a broad understanding of ancient and modern times, but he had never heard of what cement was.

Seeing Kangxi in such a state of panic, Minghui wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief, "Xuanye, you are blinded by one thing."

After listening to Minghui's words, Kangxi suddenly came to his senses.

What does he care about what it is? Anyway, Lao Si is working on it. If he succeeds, he will definitely report it. If he fails, it won't be worth mentioning. Why should he bother to figure it out?

He kissed the corner of Minghui's lips, "Hui'er is still smart."

He put his arms around Minghui's waist and lowered his head to sniff her neck.

No matter where you are, home is where the heart is.

Soon the day of the trip to the frontier arrived. In the largest and most luxurious carriage, the servants could hear Kangxi's voice coaxing Minghui.

After a long time, the voice gradually became quieter, and Kangxi said lightly, "Li Dequan, bring me a blanket."

Li De immediately found a fox fur blanket and handed it to Kangxi.

It turned out that Minghui had fallen asleep leaning against Kangxi.

After the convoy arrived at the destination, Kangxi gently woke up Minghui as everyone knelt to greet him, "Hui'er, we've arrived."

Kangxi lifted the curtain, took Minghui's hand, and lifted her off the carriage, gently admonishing her, "I will discuss matters with them later, Hui'er, you don't have to wait for me to eat, call Li Dequan if you need anything."

Minghui nodded, and turned to leave with the support of Cuizhi and Lanyue.

The princes kneeling in the front were secretly impressed that the emperor really loved Minghui.

The Eighth Prince had a mocking look in his eyes, the Ninth Prince had a bitter expression on his face, and the Fourth Prince was ambitious. Looking around, none of these princes were normal.

On this trip, Ruoxi begged Yinzhen to go along, so Yinzhen did not bring his fourth wife.

Ruoxi was so happy when she saw the grassland. Actually, she didn't know how to ride a horse yet, but now is the perfect time, so she must learn it.

After finishing her meal, Minghui happened to meet Ruoxi at the horse selection area. Ruoxi thought for a while and walked towards Minghui.

She looked at Minghui's face, which was covered with makeup that was not as beautiful as a lotus flower, and the fragrance of pearls and jade from the water palace, and slowly asked, "Palace Jade Liquor?"

"Odd changes to even?"

"White dragon horse, hooves facing west?..."

Minghui looked at Ruoxi with a puzzled look on her face, then turned to ask Cuizhi, "Is she possessed by an evil spirit?"
