Chapter 422 Sacred Heart
"Big Man, do you think the mat is too thick?" Zhu Cixuan said, while lifting the wolf skin mat under his butt.
One, two, three, two, two less than the usual carriage.
Dai Ying thought for a while and shook her head helplessly: "Your Majesty, I don't know. Maybe it's because of the four wheels."
After running around, Zhu Cilang and Dai Ying got off the carriage with great enthusiasm. Dai Ying laughed first: "General Lu, our family is thinking of His Majesty going to Kaifeng, and they are traveling thousands of miles away. Maybe they will suffer. I didn't expect that the carriage was so comfortable. Not to mention rushing to the road, even if you sleep inside to review memorials, there is no problem. You really have the heart."
"Thank you, my father-in-law, for your praise. As long as your Majesty likes it, you will be the great blessings of the King of Liao and ministers!"
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "General Lu is polite. I am a little curious. How this carriage is so stable is really incredible."
Lu Yong bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this carriage has indeed devoted a lot of effort. As for what is magical, I dare to keep it a secret and want you to guess!"
Zhu Cilang suddenly became interested. He looked at the eunuch who followed him and many ministers, and smiled and said, "My dear friends, whoever can find the reason, I will allow you to ride a carriage. Speaking of which, this carriage is more stable than a sedan chair, which is really a great enjoyment!"
All of these ministers were very interested. Everyone turned around the car for a few rounds, judging their heads and shaking their heads, but after looking around for a few rounds, they found nothing unusual.
Finally, the Zuodu Censor Fan Keqin, who had just been promoted, stood up: "Report to Your Majesty, I think that the carriage used to be two wheels, but now this carriage is four wheels. The mystery is that there are two wheels. Do General Lu agree?"
Lu Yong smiled and shook his head. He said, "Your Majesty, the carriage..."
"slow!"
One person walked out of the civil servant team. He was not tall, very thin, with a long beard. He walked a few steps to the front of the carriage, and suddenly he lay on the ground and twisted his body to the bottom of the carriage. The red official robe was stained with sand and grass, and he seemed to have not realized it.
"Mr. Song, Lord. Song, what are you doing? It's really a disgrace to be gentle and a disgrace to be gentle!"
The civil servant on the side kept pointing and pointing. The man was careless and got into the ground of the carriage. After looking for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up and he hurriedly crawled out.
"General Lu, how did you do it? That thing is not easy!"
What Lu Yong admired the most was the real person. This person was able to climb under the car and immediately made him look at him with admiration.
"Sir, please see."
The soldiers on the side touched a box, and everyone stretched their necks to see what mysterious thing was.
When I opened it, I saw an object of the thickness of a bowl, surrounded by steel. It was actually a spring. However, when placed at this time, it was particularly novel.
The minister named Song grabbed it and put it in his hand and pressed it. The spring kept compressing and stretching. His eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Zhu Cixuan asked curiously: "Mr. Song, what did you see?"
"Your Majesty, this item is placed between the axle and the bottom plate of the car. When you encounter bumps, you can deform back and forth and remove the force. Because of this, you can't feel any bumps in the car."
When Zhu Cilang heard this, he suddenly realized and said, "I remember that there is such an object in the Western clock, but it is much smaller than this one. I really didn't expect that such a thing could make the carriage very different. It's really amazing."
"I heard from Your Majesty. I think it is just a skill and trick, and I can't do anything. When we start a career in our dynasty, Taizu and Chengzu are all riding on horses and are invincible. I think this carriage is stable, just like a melodious sound, which is sucking ambition. It is inconsistent with the bitter ambition of the Ming Dynasty when Your Majesty revived!"
When I heard these sour and smelly words, I knew that they must be a censor without asking.
Sure enough, the person who spoke was Xue Lun, the director of the Huke Academy, who was Fan Keqin's student.
"Your Majesty, I think it is time to imitate Goujian and slept on firewood and taste gall. General Lu offered such comfortable things. I think it is absolutely inappropriate and should be burned immediately to show Your Majesty's frugality. The national affairs are getting worse every day, and all the ministers who are lucky enough to promote themselves are willing to be charmed, and they do not know that the country is difficult and the people are suffering. The trend of extravagance should not rise, and the heart of comfort should not be achieved. I tell Your Majesty to immediately denounce those who offer this goods, and look at them with righteousness!"
A good carriage can actually lead to such a lot of things, even to the point where Lu Yong and even Gu Zhenhua are punished. I have to say that the censor's sharp mouth is just to make people look at him with admiration.
Zhu Cilang's face was gloomy and he cursed in his heart, but he couldn't find any rebuttal words for a while. He couldn't say that I was just greedy for comfort, and I just loved to enjoy it!
At this time, the man named Song suddenly said loudly: "Mr. Xue, do you know what value this thing is?"
Xue Lun rolled his eyes: "Mr. Song, as a scholar, you are obsessed with the Tao and do not understand the teachings of saints. The key to governing a country is to win the hearts of the people, to practice benevolence and righteousness, to be frugal and abide by the laws. Only in this way can you rule the world, be obsessed with the Tao and bewitch the holy listening, is not done by a gentleman!"
A few words made "Lord Song" so hard that he couldn't even say a word.
Xue Lun was very proud and said loudly: "The King of Liao was deeply favored by the emperor, so he should be honest and not take advantage of the opportunity. In this way, what is the difference between this and those eunuchs and villains!"
"fart!"
Xue Lun was almost cursing the streets, and finally someone couldn't help it. Wu Kaijie walked over from behind with great strides. He had already come to greet Zhu Cilang by Gu Zhenhua's order, but his task was to observe the civil and military officials in the court and see their weight. Wu Kaijie did not stand up rashly and tested everyone with a carriage. It was his idea.
Wu Kaijie came to Zhu Cixuan, gave a big gift, then stood up, sneered and said, "There is a kind of thing in this world that after hearing it, everyone will give a thumbs up, and no one can refute it. Do you guys know what this is? This is nonsense! It is useless words! It is the way of saints that some people often say!"
"Madman, if you dare to insult the saint, you can kill and not keep it. Your Majesty, take him down quickly!"
Wu Kaijie laughed: "A saint will not make things difficult for Wu when he is alive. Instead, he will definitely kill these fake disciples and grandchildren like killing Shao Zhengmao!"
Xue Lun's words were sharp, but Wu Kaijie was even more neat. He said to the singular cannon: "The heart is clear and dangerous, the actions are firm, the words are false and the argument is false, the memories are ugly and the non-performing, and the non-performing. He is talking about shameless censors like you, and the great affairs of the court are ruined by you!"
Wu Kaijie pointed to the carriage and said, "Your Majesty, the carriage has become stable, so it is called comfort. It is simply a sinister intention. During the marching and war, it is necessary to transport gunpowder and other materials. If it is bumpy, there will be danger of explosion. This kind of four-wheel shock-absorbing carriage is a powerful tool for marching and fighting. The transportation of materials has increased by 30% and the speed has reached 20% faster. Everyone is called to the soldiers. However, some people are clamoring to burn it here, either ignorant or ignorant. Lord Xue, choose the same one!"
"you!"
Xue Lun pointed at Wu Kaijie with his finger, and was so angry that he trembled all over. However, "Mr. Song" beside him nodded frequently and showed a thoughtful look from time to time.
Wu Kaijie smiled and said to "Mr. Song": "Did you see the other beauty of this spring?"
"I'll say that this spring is made of fine iron and can be stretched and retracted repeatedly. It's the first time I've seen such fine iron. I'm sorry to guess. If I want to use the muskets and cannons, I'm afraid it's more useful!"
"Hahaha, high opinion, really high opinion!"
Zhu Cixuan suddenly became interested and asked hurriedly: "Wu Aiqing, can it really be used to build guns and cannons?"
"Your Majesty, of course, you can. A factory in Nanyang has built a musket that can shoot 400 steps, and the Iron Cavalry of the Tartars is no problem at all. An** defeats the enemy, not the Romance novel that is destroyed by the feather fan and the scarf, and is not the story of the Romance of the Romance. It is not the story of sitting at home and thinking about it. It is the real sword and gun, and it is the progress of technology. In the eyes of some people, the treasures that save lives and kill enemies are still crazy and lewd, and they have to be burned. With such a censor, what else can you do!"
Xue Lun was mocked by Wu Kaijie, making him speechless. The ministers all looked at this person with pity, ignorance and fear. What is terrible is that he took it out and was exposed in person, but he was afraid that this person would be shameless to be in the court in the future.
Zhu Cilang ignored Xue Lun and was extremely enthusiastic about Wu Kaijie.
"Wu Aiqing, I have heard that you are the right-hand man of the Liao King. I want to hear your opinion on how to defeat the enemy and how to eliminate the Tartars!"
Wu Kaijie hurriedly said, "Thank you for your love, I know everything."
After a little episode, all the monarchs and ministers rode on the road. In addition to Zhu Cilang's royal carriage, there were also ten horses left to the important officials of the court. Most of them were old and weak, and they were afraid that they would be able to scatter the bones. Sitting in the spring carriage, they were all comfortable and freehand, without any bumps. If such a good thing was really burned, it would be a waste of resources! Xue Lun's name was painted layer by layer!
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, the King of Liao, once said that the talents and materials of the Ming Dynasty were a hundred times that of the Tartars. As long as you are pragmatic, you would not have to worry about not being able to win the Tartars. Food, silver, soldiers, law, and weapons. Everything is chosen according to the standards that are conducive to improving combat effectiveness and restoring the old capital. Naturally, everything will be detrimental. All censors will be allowed to speak nonsense and talk nonsense, and good things will be destroyed by them."
Zhu Cilang nodded with great understanding: "What Wu Qing family said is reasonable. Most of the things in the Ming Dynasty were ruined by the censors, but the only King of Liao in the world dared to do this to Qingliu. It's really sad and lamentable!"
Obviously, Zhu Cilang has become disgusted with the shamelessness and ignorance of the censors. Wu Kaijie said: "Your Majesty, the King of Liao advocates pragmatism. If you can trust the King of Liao, you will naturally be invincible!"
Zhu Cilang couldn't help but fall into deep thought. After talking until he finished speaking, Wu Kaijie immediately resigned. After getting off the carriage, he immediately asked someone to inquire who the minister named Song was.
