From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 1030

The main hall of the Prince Wei's Palace is so spacious, much better than the Prince Xunnan's Palace in my small Xiangzhou.

Hey, is that pillar made of ebony? No, it seems to be all ebony. Zhou Yuan is really generous.

A first-class prince in his early twenties, a great marshal of the army, a famous general with outstanding military exploits... but! He let me sit in the main seat! Hahahaha!

Luo Yunhe was already very happy. After his father died, he became a marginal figure and returned to Yunzhou after a few years. Now he is back in Shenjing, but he is praised highly. It's so comfortable.

But, as a big man, he should remain calm and not be surprised by praise or criticism.

He had a blank expression on his face. He took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I am good friends with Zhao Cheng and I am your elder. I will call you Ziyi."

"Ziyi, there are two things to solve when we go north this time."

"The first thing is that your brother Zhiyuan has lofty ambitions and wants to join the army and follow you to the Northern Expedition."

Zhou Yuan frowned, glanced at Luo Zhiyuan, and then said, "Uncle Luo, you only have this one son."

Luo Yunhe felt really wronged. Yes, I only have this one son. Who wants to put him on the battlefield? But this kid has grown up now. He gave me a back elbow some time ago and almost broke my old kidneys.

Now he can't argue or fight. When he gets angry, he even puts a flintlock gun in his mouth. How can I bear this!

He was filled with emotion, but his face was righteous: "So what if he is the only son? Song Wu was also the only son, didn't he lead troops to the north? My Luo family has made great military achievements and has been favored by the emperor for generations, so we should serve the country."

"My son Zhiyuan has the idea of ​​serving the country in his heart and doesn't want to be a playboy. I admire him very much and should support him."

Zhou Yuan was silent for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay! I agree to this!"

Why do you have to agree?

You are a prince, can't you refuse me?

Luo Yunhe was helpless and nodded calmly: "Very good!"

Luo Zhiyuan was really happy and immediately excited: "Great! Brother Zhou! I want to join the musket team! My shooting skills are very accurate now! I can shoot through the target at a hundred paces!"

Zhou Yuan sneered. Don't brag about shooting through the target at a hundred paces with your white wax spear head. Maybe you haven't even drunk blood.

Luo Yunhe said helplessly: "The second thing is about Ruan Zhi. She said you seem to be interested in her?"

Ah? Sister Ruan Zhi, you can say such things.

"It's not that it seems intentional, it's been planned for a long time."

Luo Ruan Zhi said softly, her face was a little red, but she still whispered: "Mr. Zhou has been pursuing me for four years."

"What!"

Luo Yunhe widened his eyes and couldn't help exclaiming: "He pursued you when he was a son-in-law?"

Luo Ruan Zhi confirmed it, then nodded seriously and said: "Yes, deliberately got on my carriage, told stories to make me happy, drank water from my cup, and deliberately increased the ambiguity."

"Arranged me to Haojing, gave me an environment to learn mathematics, and also let me get in touch with Western mathematics theory."

"After fighting the Dutch, he made up a story with me as the heroine on the ship, and told it very vividly."

"Father, Mr. Zhou has put a lot of thought into pursuing me, and even came up with a very romantic math problem. My daughter is very moved."

Zhou Yuan trembled with his hands, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of herbal tea to calm himself.

Luo Yunhe murmured, "You kid... have had bad intentions for a long time. If you like Ruan Zhi, why don't you tell her earlier? It's not unfair for her to be a concubine."

Here, he looked at his daughter and asked, "Ruan Zhi, do you want to be a concubine or a principal wife?"

Luo Ruan Zhi said, "My daughter doesn't care. I'll just be a concubine."

Luo Yunhe nodded and said, "Zi Yi is so busy that he doesn't have time to take care of the dowry and the bride price. You should discuss it with Miss Zhao and get it done."

Luo Ruanzhi said "hmm" softly and smiled: "Dowry is nothing more than etiquette and money, which is easy to handle."

Luo Yunhe said: "When do you plan to get married?"

Luo Ruanzhi thought for a while, and then said: "I haven't drawn the regular 17-gon yet, but it's almost done. I'm about to figure it out. Let's get married when I draw it."

"Okay then."

Luo Yunhe stood up, picked up the teacup, and smiled: "My dear son-in-law, congratulations on your long life together."

Zhou Yuan swallowed his saliva.

What happened?

I suddenly have an extra wife?

Didn't someone ask for my opinion? So it's my turn to arrange a marriage?

"Thank you..."

Looking at Ruanzhi's clear eyes, Zhou Yuan said with a stiff face: "Thank you, father-in-law..."

Luo Yunhe nodded, stood up, and said: "You young people are busy, I'll leave first."

He ran out in a few quick steps, fearing that Zhou Yuan would regret it.At this moment, Zhou Yuan felt like he was being tricked.

But looking at Ruan Zhi's eyes, she didn't look like she was scheming. Her eyes were very clear, like the clarity when Gray Wolf came up with an invention.

"Mr. Zhou, there's no need for that expression."

Luo Ruan Zhi said softly, "I know you've finally achieved your long-cherished wish, and you're a little overwhelmed, but I haven't finished drawing the regular 17-gon yet."

"Father said that I should take the initiative and leave you a way out, so I just said everything."

"Are you secretly happy now?"

Good question, Ruan Zhi, you're really a math genius.

Zhou Yuan sighed, turned around and glared at Luo Zhiyuan.

"Brother, I understand!"

Luo Zhiyuan turned around and ran away.

Then, Zhou Yuan looked at Ruan Zhi and whispered, "Sister Ruan Zhi, I heard from the Virgin Mary that you wear loose clothes to cover up your graceful figure?"

Luo Ruan Zhi was stunned for a moment, her face gradually turned red, and she lowered her head.

She whispered, "How can she tell you this so directly..."

Luo Ruan Zhi narrowed her eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

She gestured to herself with both hands, and then slowly said: "This question is really worth pondering. If we consider them as two irregular hemispheres, it seems that we can use mathematical methods to estimate the volume."

"Use an integer divided by three times pi, and then multiply it by the length from the root to the vertex, and understand this as the radius. Add a square to it, and then double the width, and it seems that we can get a rough value."

"But this method doesn't seem to be appropriate. After all, a lot of data is needed to prove its accuracy."

Speaking of this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said in surprise: "There is a way!"

"We can use the mold method!"

"Use a soft mold to mold them out, and then fill the inside with clear water. Isn't the volume of clear water their volume?"

"Then pour the clear water into a regular object, and you can accurately calculate the volume!"

She looked at Zhou Yuan and couldn't help asking: "Am I right!"

Zhou Yuan wiped the sweat from his face.

At this moment, he was very sure that he had met a rare and unique opponent.

The other party's way of having fun seems to be different from Qu Ling's. It's very strange, but it seems to be interesting.

Zhou Yuan looked at Luo Ruanzhi and said solemnly: "You said it very well. It basically solved the problem, but have you ever thought about elasticity?"

Luo Ruanzhi fell into deep thought again. She was very distressed and racked her brains. Then she shook her head and said: "It's too profound. I have actually studied these aspects, including elasticity, friction, buoyancy, etc., but I don't seem to have any clues."

Zhou Yuan said seriously: "If you want to summarize an experience or a formula, you must need a lot of experiments to find the rules."

Luo Ruanzhi nodded heavily: "I'll ask Ningyue to cooperate with me. I must understand them!"

Zhou Yuan was immediately anxious: "I can also cooperate with you! I know more about mathematics than Ningyue."

Luo Ruanzhi said: "You want to learn too?"

Zhou Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly: "Mathematics? Mathematics is good! I also want to learn a math subject."
