Chapter 24 Let's go! Full month 80/116
"The emperor who followed the heavens and inherited the power of the emperor, said: It has been eighty-year since Taizu's strength in the world. His descendants have inherited their blessings, which is the stability of today's country. And the royal family's talents have emerged, which is a blessing for my great prosperity.
Nowadays, Prince Li, Mingguan, has elegant qualities, gentleness and kindness, filial piety and virtue, and is well-read in poetry and books to imitate great scholars and be humble and kind to others. Therefore, Mingguan is specially appointed as King Ning.
There is also Prince Yu's prince Mingqi, who is gorgeous and elegant, and has a righteous manner. He is elegant and handsome. He accumulates good deeds to promote transformation, and devotes evil to correct customs. He is strong and upright. Therefore, he specially named Mingqi as King of De.
Looking at Mingguan, Mingqi, from now on, respectfully inherit the heaven and earth to impart gods, respect the world to worship the world to show me merits, protect our great prosperity, and set an example for the clan members, so that I will be at ease.
This order should be accepted by all the officials, officials and people from all over the world to know my intentions!”
It took six days to be made from the legend that two princes were crowned as princes of the empire to the official imperial edict.
Not many people know what happened during this period.
Many ordinary people don’t need to know that much. They only need to know that the emperor’s two princes died suddenly from illness.
In this way, it is clear that the act of appointing the two princes as princes is very clear.
The emperor has no son, so he is pre-enacting the prince and is planning to choose one to inherit the throne!
Originally, people from the capital were just gossiping, and when they saw this, they immediately started discussing in various teahouses, restaurants, and streets.
"Hey, which prince did you say can inherit the throne?"
"Nonsense, it must be King Ning! King Ning has been a gentle scholar since he was a child. He has been deeply influenced by Confucianism and is a good candidate to be an emperor!"
"I don't agree with you. King Ning is good, but King De is more down-to-earth! I like those who stand up for our people!"
"Yes, and during the locust plague last year, who did not stop fire all day and provide us with almost free porridge and steamed buns? Isn't it King De? He became the emperor, and we can all enjoy it!"
"No, no, no, you can't be like King De. He is too unruly and does things at will. He must have a proper emperor so that he won't do things randomly and keep us safe."
"Bah! Can the imperial court of Dakang make the emperor mess around? King De is not a tyrant. He has invented so many things and knows how to live! Everyone follows him, that's right!"
"I think King Ning should be more stable, and the ministers should support him, right?"
"That's true. If you ask Confucian and Legal people to choose, it is probably because the King of Nei has the greatest advantage!"
“…”
While the people were talking a lot, the debate also extended to the six ministries and came to the court.
Countless officials were discussing and speculating secretly, and many officials were wondering whether they needed to take sides in advance.
King Ren Liu Mingguan expressed his opinion on this, saying, "Xiao Wang is just a prince now, and should focus on knowledge and learn more knowledge at the same time. Nothing else has to do with Xiao Wang. Please don't talk about Xiao Wang and De Wang anymore."
King Liu Mingqi is even more direct.
He did not speak to the outside world, but was busy with his plan to "eliminate the gates of hell". Ordinary people could not even meet him, let alone hear his statement.
In the eyes of the teenager, these people are just having enough food to do it.
The emperor is only forty-eight years old, and even an 80-year-old man can have a son, let alone an emperor with three thousand beauties.
Even if you take turns sowing, you will always succeed, right?
Therefore, there is no need to think about the throne, it is all false.
Besides, for modern people, as long as they can ensure food, drink and have fun, a few beautiful little wives are serving them, and the political situation is stable, and they are in a peaceful and prosperous era, it is best not to be an emperor!
Since there is no need, he naturally doesn't even bother to pretend.
The young man called his three apprentices, Liu Mingyou, Fang Xiaopang and Wu Yeshuang.
After March this year, Fang Lei, who had been flying repeatedly in Jin Mingchi for more than a dozen times, excitedly took Liu Mingyou to Dajiang Dahe area to experiment with hot air balloons.
Liu Mingqi equipped them with hundreds of assistants and enough guarding power, and used more than 70 carriages with various equipment and equipment alone.
As a result, he never expected that Fang Xiaopang, a bastard, went out without saying hello to Mrs. Fang, and ran away.
This made Mrs. Fang come to the door and curse Liu Mingqi.
If General Fang hadn't come after hearing the news, it would have been a question of how long would Liu Mingqi be scolded?
This became a joke in Beijing at that time.
Everyone knows that Liu Mingqi is accepting Fang Lei as his disciple, and that Fang Lei is fiddling with hot air balloons. Many people have even seen hot air balloons that have taken off the air more than once.
They all regarded this as a play for the nobles' children. If they really wanted them to go to the hot air balloon, they would not be allowed to kill them.
It’s nothing if Liu Mingqi was scolded. When Fang Xiaopang was in August, last month, he went home after wandering for five months, he would be beaten by Mrs. Fang.
It is said that Fang Xiaopang was forced to accept two concubines first, preparing to continue the fireworks for the Fang family.
So this time, Liu Mingqi blurted out when she saw Fang Xiaopang: "Fang Lei, you have lost weight!"
The three apprentices were all a little slow in their relationship.
Fang Lei was not a stolen person, but after having a woman, he could naturally understand some dirty words.
Hearing this, he turned his eyes white, "Master, you are still a boy. Is it interesting to say these words?"
"Bah!"
Liu Mingqi was furious, "You evil disciple, is there anyone who speaks like this? I haven't settled the score with you yet! It was you who made me scolded by your mother!"
When talking about this, Fang Lei felt a little embarrassed and was embarrassed to talk back.
Wu Yeshuang didn't want to see these two people making jokes, so she coughed lightly, "Mingqi, hurry up and talk about the serious matter!"
"good!"
Facing the serious sister Ye Shuang, Liu Mingqi could only calm down and said, "Everyone, our opportunity to show our strength is here! The emperor has already breathed with me. Taking advantage of this time the Yellow River floods, the embankment around the Ghost Gate must be repaired and the water conservancy efforts will be expanded. The court will empty all the water around the Ghost Gate, so let us clear the Ghost Gate!"
After all, he was still a 17-year-old boy. When he talked about this, he became furious.
"real!?"
Wu Yeshuang suddenly stood up, her face full of surprise.
As the daughter of the Minister of Works and former Governor of the River Delta, she has always had a strong interest in governing the Gate of Hell.
She, a woman, worked hard to learn physics and chemistry with Liu Mingqi. Isn’t it just to break the gates of hell and give the people the world a path?
Her excited heart was fluctuating, and Liu Mingqi was also a little stunned when she looked at it.
From this perspective, Sister Ye Shuang is quite beautiful.
Especially in summer, the bulging couple pushed up all their clothes.
Sin.
She is my beloved woman's best friend and my disciple, so she can't think so.
While the boy was in a state of mind, he looked at Fang Lei and Liu Mingyou, but they didn't have much expression.
Too!
This is not their specialty.
Fang Xiaopang and Liu Mingyou mainly studied hot air balloons and made a flush toilet system for the high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing.
They did not involve explosives.
While nodding to Wu Yeshuang, Liu Mingqi said, "Xiaolei, we want to clear the gates of hell. It is useless to rely on explosives alone. The oil refinement you are studying now can help us further destroy those solid reefs."
"Oh, I'm familiar with this!"
Sure enough, Fang Lei suddenly became interested, "How much do you want?"
"You have to prepare hundreds of thousands of pounds at least!" Liu Mingqi said seriously.
Fang Lei: "!?"
Master, I think you have bad intentions and want to exhaust me to death!
Liu Mingqi pretended not to see it, "The bomb is the one that Sister Shuang and Mingyou are responsible for refining gasoline. The most important thing is to let the workshop quickly create filtering equipment... Let's take the oil raw materials and refine them there."
"Why is it so troublesome?" Fang Lei said in surprise.
"Because oil has extremely strong adhesion, letting it adhere to the reef and burn, will it work better? We have no experiments and don't know." Liu Mingqi said, "So we are ready to make both hands. On the one hand, we refine gasoline, and on the other hand, we directly use oil to burn, or the two are combined together. We can use whatever is convenient."
"All right!"
As a qualified physics apprentice, Fang Lei readily agreed.
For him, this is a good place to experiment with oil and gasoline performance.
"As for the picy acid explosive..."
Liu Mingqi looked at Wu Yeshuang and Liu Mingyu, "Sister Shuang, Mingyu, I will teach you the process of making and extracting as soon as possible. The core technology is controlled by you two, and the servants in our house are responsible for the rest of the processes.
But please remember that this kind of thing must not be spread outside. If it is known by the grassland people and the southwest barbarians, it will be a catastrophe for my 150 million Dakang people!"
"I know." Sister Ye Shuang said seriously.
A dull person like Liu Mingyou nodded after a moment: "The clan's family has no choice."
"good!"
Liu Mingqi smiled with satisfaction, "Then let's start actively from now on and prepare actively! There is not much time left for us, so it's best to solve the problem this time and don't delay until the second year!!"
He told the emperor that it may take several years.
This is also a very safe statement.
In fact, Liu Mingqi just wanted to get it done in one go.
Only by completing it once can the people suffer less trouble and suffering.
Otherwise, next year's flood season will come, and whether the embankment can withstand the pressure after the diverted river channel will be a question.
If you can't stand it and collapse directly, millions of people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait will suffer.
Even if next year is the same as this year, the situation will be even worse!
However, it is extremely difficult to complete such a huge project in just a few months!
...
I beg for ordering all!
I'm rushing the manuscript seriously now and I lack time to discuss it with you. Sorry!
Chapter completed!
