Chapter 691 The honeymoon begins, who is the groom?
Because of the prisoners, because Dachu worked hard to build roads, flattening and wide cement roads, with Feng'an City as the center, expanding outwards, and building them in the direction of Wu State, in preparation for transporting food supplies for the war.
Of course, now that the road is open, it will be easier to transport troops. Before, we found that the road condition was not good and it was difficult to transport troops, but now it is much more convenient.
Modern people all know that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
Transportation that extends in all directions is the most important. Originally, Dachu needed roads if it wanted to develop, and even more so for war. Now it is used for war first, and later for economic development.
Chu Xingchen already knew the importance of transportation, and the ancients also knew it, but this was the first time he truly experienced it.
These cement roads are naturally incomparable to modern transportation systems and asphalt roads, but they are enough to shock Dachu.
Many roads were built with both the city and the people in mind, so the people who built the roads were the first to experience the benefits of the roads.
We also know that the road construction is for fighting wars and for their convenience. The road construction happens to be during the winter leisure time, so everyone will take the initiative to help as long as they are free.
Originally, the person in charge of building the road thought of recruiting nearby villagers to help, but now everyone has come on their own initiative.
When we saw the wounded soldiers sent back from the front, more and more people came to help.
They all knew about Wu Guo's wolfish ambitions, and when they saw the wounded soldiers, they became more active for a while.
Many village chiefs took the initiative to mobilize villagers to help.
"Anyone who is free tomorrow will go and help. I don't think anyone wants to ruin our finally stable life."
"Now that such a good road will be opened, the days will only get better and better. We will not fight, so we will do what we can."
"no problem."
More and more people are actively pitching in to help. They care more than anyone else and do their best. It doesn't matter if they don't get paid. They help voluntarily and the progress of road construction is amazing.
Sometimes when it comes time to pay wages, they run away.
Some villagers also took the initiative to bring them hot water and food for the road builders to eat.
The prisoners were lucky enough to eat eggs sent by the villagers one day. Some villagers did not know that they were prisoners, so they stuffed them into their hands.
The person who was looking after them saw it but said nothing.
Although it was their first time to see such a united scene in Da Chu.
But as the prisoners ate the eggs, they couldn't calm down for a long time.
What shocked them even more was that one day they actually saw the Queen of Dachu with their own eyes.
The Empress of Dachu went on patrol incognito, and at first the prisoners did not realize that she was the empress.
Not only did they not see it, but everyone also didn't see it at the beginning.
Chu Xingchen will show up to personally inspect the road conditions and to look around and inspect.
Although she has been the queen for several years, she has not yet visited and understood many places in Dachu.
Knowing more about her will also be beneficial to her future work.
The highway was of great importance, and since it was a critical moment, Chu Xingchen decided to take the opportunity to make a trip.
She took the small ice cube with her and set out from Feng'an City in the most ordinary carriage. She also wanted to take the small ice cube with her to see everywhere.
Little Ice Cube was born in the palace, but he can't just know the palace's three-acre field.
Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.
It just so happened that she had not been sick since her last illness. She was in good health and had no problem going out. It also made her body stronger and healthier.
After hearing Chu Xingchen's plan, Xiao Wang immediately talked about it.
"His Majesty trusted me and entrusted me with many tasks related to road construction, as well as the library, salt field, etc. I just happened to go and have a look."
He absolutely must accompany His Majesty.
Chu Xingchen said hurriedly, "No, I'll just bring some ice cubes with me. Don't worry too much about safety. I'll be back soon."
She didn't need Xiao Wang to go out of his way to accompany her.
"No, I originally planned to go and see the repaired highway in person." Xiao Wang smiled, "I just pushed the schedule forward a little, and it would be better to go with His Majesty. If I see what needs to be improved,
Just say it directly.”
After Xiao Wang finished speaking, Chu Xingchen was still a little confused.
Xiao Wang felt bitter and regretful. He deliberately made the embarrassment and discomfort exist before. Did Your Majesty really become defensive and want to stay away from him?
Xiao Wang mustered up the courage to ask directly.
"Your Majesty, do you... hate me? That's why you don't want to go together?"
"No." Chu Xingchen could only tell the truth, "I just thought you were busy and didn't want us to hate each other, so I said we didn't need to go together."
"When you go out, you will encounter many things, and there will also be many times when you have different opinions."
Chu Xingchen is not exaggerating. In modern times, we have indeed seen many couples who broke up after a sweet trip, and there are also many friends and family members who quarreled while traveling.
No matter how good a relationship is, there will be quarrels on the road.
What's even worse is that even if you are on a wedding or honeymoon, you can break up immediately.
"I don't want you to go together because I'm worried that we might quarrel or that you might be upset but not be able to express it."
Xiao Wang; "......"
He never thought of this reason, so he exhaled helplessly.
"How could that be? We went out together several times before."
"It wasn't long before and there were a lot of people, unlike this time." Chu Xingchen said directly, seeing that Xiao Wang didn't know the danger at all and still looked confident.
"Don't think I'm being alarmist. I heard Dandan talk about a friend I met before. After they got married, they went back to their parents' home sweetly and went on honeymoon all the way. However, they divorced within fifteen days of getting married."
"So be careful when traveling together."
Xiao Wang's focus has completely gone astray, honeymoon?
This was the first time he heard this saying, but it meant that after getting married, the couple would have fun together.
It's really heartwarming to hear.
This trip between him and His Majesty can be regarded as a honeymoon, right?
Xiao Wang thought that it must be the case. Even if His Majesty didn't think so, he would definitely turn this trip into a honeymoon trip.
Thinking of it, a smile flashed across Xiao Wang's face.
Chu Xingchen: "...Xiao Wang, were you smiling just now?"
Xiao Wang hurriedly denied, "No, I was just a little surprised when I heard it for the first time, but this may be because the two people are not suitable for each other. We didn't know each other well before, and we don't know each other. We have known each other for many years."
Xiao Wang denied it very firmly, "Your Majesty, please don't think about these impossible things. I will be with you, and it will only do you good and no harm."
"I have traveled to many places before and am familiar with the roads. I know where there are delicious food and interesting places. Your Majesty can also see the scenery and eat delicious food along the way."
"With me here, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about so many things and won't be too tired."
He never dreamed of traveling with His Majesty. He finally expected it, so how could he bother her?
It may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to escape the environment of the palace and go out alone with His Majesty.
It's too late for him to cherish it.
Therefore, he must go on this 'honeymoon' trip.
Seeing that Xiao Wang was not worried at all and that he was talking about delicious food, Chu Xingchen couldn't help but feel excited.
Tasting delicacies from all over the world is something I really can’t refuse.
Moreover, she suddenly thought that if Xiao Wang thought that he was tired of traveling with her and wanted to 'make peace', that would actually be fine.
