I am the king of the dead

Hu Xun often relied on the old to sell the old, Yang Hong also used to rely on the old to sell the old, and Chen Mao also used to rely on the old to sell the old. His Majesty not only allowed it, but also listened carefully and took it seriously.

"The minister obeys the order." Xing'an bowed his head and whispered a few times to Xiao Huangmen.

The two Hanlins checked again in front of the two hemispheres, and even pulled the chain hard, trying to see if they could pull it apart, but they caused everyone in the audience to burst into laughter. It was really funny.

"Have you finished reading it! Hurry up when you have finished reading it!" Seeing that the time was delayed, Xiao Xuan walked up to the stage and shouted angrily. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, he was not afraid of these Hanlin Academy's Hanlin at all.

As the Minister of Rites, Xiao Xuan may not be able to argue with these Hanlins, but he has the help of Liu Ji, a shameless person. Liu Ji is good at eloquence, and he is better at sophistry.

Moreover, Liu Ji and Xiao Xuan have no conflict of interest. Liu Ji is an alternate, at least he will sit in this position only after he arrives at Yao Kui in terms of seniority.

"Go down!" Xiao Xuan scolded again. The two Hanlins finally ended their funny performance and stepped off the stage angrily, but they still refused to go back to the auditorium. Instead, they stood on the sidelines, staring at Looking at the two hemispheres, it seemed that he was going to stare the copper ball out of a hole, breaking His Majesty's spell.

Under the witness of everyone, the Ming emperor started to add horses again, adding a total of seven times. Finally, under the pulling of sixteen horses, the two copper hemispheres, with a loud bang, separated under everyone's expectations. .

Everyone was surprised at how powerful the atmospheric pressure was, but the two hemispheres, by coincidence, were separated, and the two halves roared and smashed towards the two Hanlins standing under the stage.

"Come on."

The two Hanlins who couldn't dodge were directly smashed into their chests by the two cupronickel hemispheres. Blood spurted out of the mouths of the two of them, sprayed all the way, and then fell slowly and softly.

These two, who were already gray-haired and slow to move, faced the whistling copper ball without reacting, and were hit head-on. This blow was tantamount to being hit head-on by a solid cannon .

Xiao Xuan was shocked, and immediately shouted loudly: "Please come to the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital, hurry up!"

Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing are the two great doctors in the world, and they are two talented doctors.

The two imperial hospitals sentenced one to have his neck probed and the other to pull his eyelids. They looked at each other and shook their heads. Lu Zicai said to Xiaohuangmen, "Please report to Your Majesty, you are already dead."

The heartbeat has stopped, and the pupils have begun to dilate. In this case, the immortals are hard to save.

Xiao Xuan's face that was originally intended to sneer turned into a look of mourning after half sneering, but he has been in a high position for a long time and is not good at changing his face. Unlucky."

Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing did not see a trace of grief and anger on Xiao Xuan's face.

After Zhu Qiyu heard the news, he frowned and said, "I'm so unwilling to go to work in the coal mine division, and resist the edict with death."

Xing'an looked left and right and whispered, "Do you want the sons of these two to be punished on your behalf?"

As the chief minister of Lijian, when the imperial power is challenged, he should fight with the fiercest means, because the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty are completely dependent on the imperial power. people?

Yu Qian coughed softly, and the prince's young master, Hu Xun, was very close and naturally heard it.

It is inconvenient for Yu Qian to speak. After all, Yu Qian is the head of the hundred officials and the dignified young guard. Song Chang and Chen Jingzong have offended the emperor and are not punishable. His Majesty just ransacked the house with great disrespect and exiled the two families to Yongning. Temple is not an exaggeration.

But Hu Xiu can.

Hu Xi said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the two of you are busy, so it's not easy for your family to suffer."

"They have no right to be pursued and punished. Everyone is dead, and they will die." Zhu Qiyu knew what Hu Xun was worried about. Once the emperor took the lead in expanding, the atmosphere of expansion would immediately expand to Daming's. Every corner, after all, the emperor is admired by billions of trillions, and he does what he thinks.

Zhu Qiyu has never liked to hurt his family. If he wants to be punished by him, such as beheading the whole family, exiling his family to Jilong Island, a place where Yongning Temple is a miasma, and not being able to enco for generations, then he has to make an 'outstanding contribution'. .

Just how many calls from the two old-fashioned factions Song Chang and Chen Jingzong deserve the emperor's anger?The clowning behavior of the two is not enough to start the punishment for the family.

"I drew a circle and asked everyone to stand outside the circle and salute. These two Hanlins just didn't listen to me. They insisted on breaking in and stood on the sidelines to watch the ceremony. This is a good time, and their lives are gone." Zhu Qiyu turned to the side. The body asked Hu Yan: "I don't intend to pursue offense. Their family members will not chase after our court and ask our court to lose money."

As soon as he heard that he was losing money, the minister of households, Shen Yi, immediately looked left and right, as if he wanted to see who had the idea of ​​attacking the state money!

It was the other way around, he Shen Yi looked at the money and dared to covet it!

Shen Yi's appearance almost caused internal injuries to the princes, generals, and Duke Ming who were on the Wufeng Tower.

The person who just died, the dead person is the big one, the laughter at this time is really disrespectful, but Shen Yi's appearance is really ridiculous.

"No." Hu Ying said confidently.

If they are unwilling to give up, naturally someone will help them to give up, such as He Zhang, who is so black that he wants to kill. His Majesty, as the supreme existence of the Ming Dynasty, is naturally inconvenient to do it, but He Zhang does not have so many taboos.

"Wipe the two cupronickel hemispheres clean and send them to Tiangong Pavilion." Zhu Qiyu made a decision. The two cupronickel hemispheres are the testimony of Daming's road to science.

"Otherwise, don't wipe it." Xing'an asked in a low voice, his eyes were ruthless, and Xing'an was always careful about killing people.

After all, there is a half-burned dragon flag in the Nanhu Courtyard in Nanjing. I don’t know how Xing’an copied it. It is exactly the same as the one in the case of the head of the Wenhua Palace in the Imperial City of Beijing. In the face of such cultural relics, later generations will not be able to identify the authenticity. .

Who dares to say it's not true?

Xing'an asked whether the bloodstains should be wiped off, and even more so, if His Majesty wanted Song Chang and Chen Jingzong to be left unseen for thousands of years, as long as today's events were recorded truthfully, the historical conclusion of the two guys is to hit the egg with the egg.

This time, Yu Qian, Hu Xun, Jiang Yuan and other Ming Gong became masters who pretended to be confused with their eyes open again.

Xing'an is an eunuch, and is naturally opposed to the civil servants. Even if Xing'an is at peace with Yu Qian, Hu Yu, etc., this is because Yu Qian, Hu Yu and other Ming Gongs are hard-core imperialists. When facing the enemy who questioned the emperor. , Xing'an showed his sharp minions.

As the ancestor of the palace, Xing'an has always been known for his fierceness.

"Seek truth from facts." Zhu Qiyu thought about it and agreed with Xing'an's approach. Since it is a cultural relic that witnesses history, it is natural to seek truth from facts.

"Chen, obey the order." Xing'an bowed his head and ordered.

After the end of the hemisphere experiment, the crowd was still gathering, and there was a lot of discussion about today's time. The people who thought it was going to happen today saw that the generals of the Han were still gathering, and they knew that His Majesty had something to say.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict said:"

"The facts are clear and witnessed by thousands of people. There is no need for further discussion. The atmospheric pressure exists, and sixteen horses can pull it apart."

"This matter is over, everyone, wait a moment, and all the people still need to bear witness."

Zhu Qiyu is just a hemisphere experiment today, it's really a little bit like this, calling everyone out to watch the fun? ' of dissatisfaction.

That's it? That's it?

It's such an abrupt end to such a laborious effort.

So Zhu Qiyu temporarily added a show to let everyone continue to witness.

"Xu Dun, Bei Lin, Wan Jie Li, are you ready?" Zhu Qiyu asked in the direction of the Qin Tianjian.

Today, after the hemispheric experiment, Zhu Qiyu will go to the Tenth Bureau of Qintianjian to check and accept a project.

"It's ready." Xu Dun led the crowd down the Wufeng Tower, preparing for a new experiment, which was already discussed.

Soon, Xu Dun and others dragged some strange horses to the middle of the stage. These horses were iron horses, and the horses were made of iron shells, but their hooves were a pair of two wheels.

The project that Zhu Qiyu wants to accept is the miniaturization of the steam engine under the auspices of the ten major bureaus.

It should have been closed-door acceptance, but on the way here, Zhu Qiyu also specifically asked Xu Dun if he could accept public acceptance.

This is an opportunity, an opportunity to prove that the Qin Tianjian and the Ten Great Calendar Bureaus are not idle institutions that are wasting national money, and an opportunity to respond forcefully to the gossip.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the appearance of the horses, and they were holding their foreheads. Although the pulling force of the steam engine was measured in horsepower, the craftsmen of the ten major bureaus seemed to be mistaken, thinking that the Emperor Ming really wanted steam horses.

These 'horses' were specially shaped and engraved with wings. They were painted in vermilion for the celebration, which made it even more bizarre.

As soon as the steam engines were turned on, Zhu Qiyu was very happy, because the steam was sprayed from the nose, and the smoke from the burning coal was sprayed from the ears, which was extraordinarily funny.

"Let the court painter design a good-looking shell, it's really not good-looking." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile, the artisans do have a hand in scientific research, but this art is still lacking.

Cang Lin knows the etiquette in reality, and knows honor and disgrace when they have enough food and clothing. The material foundation determines the pursuit. Art is very expensive, and the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty have not yet had the time to pursue art.

Majesty pulls down these weird steam horses, what are you going to do?

Chapter 8 The horse of the golden iron horse turns out to be really an iron horse

The craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty obviously lacked too much heat compared to the civil servants in the matter of flattering, and because of the tight schedule and heavy tasks, the iron horses they made were somewhat unsightly, but the core of these steam horses was. Meticulous embodies the craftsmanship of Daming.

Under the careful preparation of Daming Qin Tianjian and the Ten Great Calendar Bureaus, after half an hour, the steam horse was completely ready.

The new cupronickel hemisphere has been pulled onto the stage. Under the constant rotation of the water pump by several luxuries, all the water in the cupronickel ball is evacuated, and the pull ring of the cupronickel hemisphere is fixed on the steam horse.

Zhu Qiyu leaned forward slightly and carefully observed the operation of the steam horse.

The screaming steam is quite rhythmic and a little more delicate, no longer as rough as asthma before;

The overall vibration of the steam horse is almost imperceptible, and it is no longer earth-shattering like the previous one that shattered at any time;

The rotation rate of the flywheel has become very stable, and it is no longer the same as before.

When the hinges were retracted, the sixteen steam horses tightened all the iron cables. Amid the exclamations of countless people, the roaring sounds of the sixteen steam horses resounded through the entire Xizhimen, and under the echo of the city wall, Appears majestic.

"Boom!"

With the powerful pulling force of sixteen steam horses, the cupronickel hemispheres, which were firmly locked by the atmospheric pressure, were pulled open. Go out, but hang firmly on the iron frame.

There is no doubt that the ease of operation of the machine is vividly displayed compared to the living creatures such as horses.

Even now, on August [-], Jingtai ten years, Daming's strong bow and fire guns can only be said to have their own advantages in range and accuracy, and fire guns are not completely dominant.

but……

How long does it take to develop a sharpshooter?How much energy?

How long does it take to train a gunner who will be shot in line and form intensive firepower?How much energy?

how to choose?The increasing firepower of the Daming Army, especially the Jingying, has already given the answer.

Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction, stood up on his knees, and shouted loudly: "Rewards! There are many rewards!"

The eunuchs passed down the decree layer by layer and the people were surprised what this was. Shi Heng was also on the viewing platform, looking at the steam horses seriously, his eyes burst into a terrifying light, that is A longing, a love from the bottom of my heart.

He knew that with this thing, the Western Regions, Kanguo, and even the land of Taixi would no longer be the end of the sky for Daming!

His Majesty once made a promise to Shi Heng: A golden iron horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger!

Now it seems that this iron horse is such an iron horse!

Shi Heng, Shi Biao, Fan Guang and other generals knew exactly what they were fighting.

In fact, it is logistics. If logistics are won, the balance of victory will be infinitely tilted to one's own side, and if logistics are defeated, defeat will be inevitable.

His Majesty's military talent is almost equal to zero, but all the sergeants in the world respect His Majesty very much. First, His Majesty never commands in person, and secondly, His Majesty is lenient to incoming enemies.

The appearance of the iron horse means that the good horses of the Royal Horse Supervisor can appear behind him in batches from now on, ensuring all the armament supplies for the army to advance.

His Majesty is really fulfilling the promise he once made, the iron horse of the golden iron horse turned out to be this iron horse!

The big jade chariot has been replaced with small steam horses made by the ten major bureaus, a total of four horses.

Zhu Qiyu intends to end today's large-scale social experiment by riding a large jade chariot pulled by a steam horse, and leave the excitement to the people celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Seeing that His Majesty was going to take a steam-drawn carriage, Hu Xi stood up immediately and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, a steam engine is a sacred thing, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should not tread lightly on dangerous places. Horses stumble, and people stumble. ."

Of course Hu Xun knew the significance of the steam engine, and also knew that there would be a systematic and systematic social change in the future. Of course, he knew why His Majesty arranged for him to go back to the palace by car. He used his reputation to endorse the steam engine and promote the steam engine. Applications.

Resettled wood Lixin, His Majesty is that wood.

But just after the miniaturization of the steam engine was completed, His Majesty used his own car to experiment, which was really too much force in Hu Yu's opinion.

Zhu Qiyu didn't care much and said, "It's okay, Shaoshi Hu has been worrying too much."

Hu Yu frowned and said again, "Your Majesty, if the ruler loses his minister, he will cherish it.

"Shang Yang reformed, Duke Xiao of Qin died, and Shang Yang died. He had to meet the ruler of Ming Dynasty, but Qin law did not die. Wang Anshi reformed, Song Shenzong died, Wang Anshi was demoted, Empress Dowager Gao started Sima Guang, and the new law was abolished."

"His Majesty."

There was helplessness in Hu Yu's tone.

Zhu Qiyu saw that Hu Xun had been stopping him, and then said in a low voice: "It's okay, it's very slow, the four drivers are watching, this small step is a big step for us, nothing will happen, don't you? Looking at their fierce names, they are not so scary."

Hu Xun looked at Yu Qian and asked Yu Qian to help, but before Yu Qian spoke, Zhu Qiyu had already walked down the city gate, walked towards the big jade chariot, and then walked slowly on the big jade chariot.

Seeing the speed of the car, Hu Yu immediately felt relieved.

The steam engine didn't do its best at all, just slowly pulling the vehicle forward steadily.

When pulling the cupronickel hemisphere, the steam horses showed their explosive power, and now the steam horses show their control.

In order to prevent the horse from stumbled, most of the steam horses pulling the cart were directly blocked in the intake pipe, and a vent hole was opened directly in the cylinder. These steam horses could only be pulled, which physically prevented runaway. possible.

Zhu Qiyu knew it was slow, but he didn't expect it to be so slow, so it was a little faster than people walking.

This is not because the performance of the steam horse is not good. In terms of the performance in the hemisphere experiment, the power of this steam horse is not inferior to that of the good horse of the Royal Horse Supervisor.

"Qin Tianjian and the Ten Great Calendar Bureaus are still too conservative." Zhu Qiyu said with a pity, sitting on the jade chariot that was moving at a fast speed, and he was swift and fast as he expected, sitting on the ground and traveling [-] miles a day, the sky would Differently.

Xing'an said with a smile: "The horse that the Imperial Horse Supervisor chose to pull the cart was also the most docile."

Zhu Qiyu thought that was really the case, but he thought about it and shook his head and said, "That big black horse runs very fast, and has a great temper."

Of course, Xing'an knew which horse His Majesty was talking about. Accompanying His Majesty's good horse charging at Deshengmen, he hurriedly said, "That black-and-white-spotted dragon horse is a war horse, and it is completely different."

Zhu Qiyu's big jade chariot drove slowly back to the lecture hall on the imperial road, and looked at the great Ming ministers behind him.

This group of Ming ministers came back.

Obviously this car is really slow, even the elderly Hu Xun can keep up.
