【There are still some cards, but I found that the title was wrong after I sent it...】

Jingren Palace Yuyun Garden.

Emperor Longyuan and Jia Yuanchun stood side by side at the gate of the courtyard. Behind were several palace maids looking at their heads, and in front of them were a row of trembling eunuchs. There were two teams of armored guards holding shields, like armored guards facing a great enemy.

And opposite this human wall-like array is a steam train that looks rough and wild at first glance, but is actually smoothed out all its edges.

This train consists of the front of the train and three carriages. The front of the train is not equipped with a ceiling. Under the illumination of a long series of storm lights on both sides, all the driver's operations can be clearly seen.

More than twenty bags of sand were piled on the three flatbed cars in the back. With the weight of the car, it looked like seven or eight tons.

Seeing that several craftsmen in the inner palace were correct in the inspection, Qiu Shi'an, who had been trying to calm in front of the locomotive, immediately turned around and walked quickly to the leather-armored guards, and reported through the wall: "Long live back, the train is ready."

As he said that, he turned his eyes and glanced around, thinking about how he could hide behind the human wall before the guards raised their shields and put them together.

It's not his fault that Emperor Longyuan was injured due to the explosion of the steam engine and was well-off for a full year. This incident was so amazing in the palace that it was said that Emperor Longyuan had a real dragon to protect his body. Otherwise, he would have probably returned to heaven.

"Then let's start!"

Emperor Longyuan rubbed his hands and was eager to try. Some people were bitten by a snake for ten years and were afraid of the ropes, while others had healed the scar and forgot to hurt. He obviously belonged to the latter. The emperor repeatedly ordered him not to take risks. He was afraid that he would have climbed into the car early.

When Qiu Shian heard this, he immediately turned around. Instead of stepping forward, he took the opportunity to take a step back and shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Majesty has an order, I will drive the train at a quick moment!"

After shouting, he took a step back without any trace.

The craftsmen there received the order, one of them climbed into the car and served as a driver, while the others scattered around.

As the driver kept adding coal to the boiler, the steam engine, which was already at the critical point, spewed out a lot of steam soon. When the driver grabbed the switch and pushed it hard, the connecting rod under the body began to drive the wheels, and then the entire train ran "bang" on the circular railway with a total length of four or five hundred meters.

When the rumbling steel beast ran at a speed close to the carriage under the night light, the shock it brought to everyone was beyond words!

So some guards even forgot that they were raising their shields to protect them, letting the iron shield in their hands hang to the ground, stretched their necks and opened their eyes wide, and they almost suspected that they were in some strange dream.

"Okay, OK, OK!"

Emperor Longyuan applauded and laughed, and asked again: "Can this train be faster?"

Because the "bang bang" movement was so loud that everyone was in extreme shock, no one heard clearly what he was saying.

It was not until Emperor Longyuan raised his voice and repeated it that Dai Quan in front of him hurriedly ordered someone to summon the craftsman in charge to come and ask.

"Long live your reply!"

The craftsman was so close to the emperor, and his tongue was so excited: "If you run a straight line on the flat ground, you can still be faster, it is no problem than an ordinary carriage, but on this detour, you are afraid that if you run faster, you will rush out of the tracks."

Emperor Longyuan actually knew this very well. After all, Jiao Shun had already explained this clearly in the secret letter before submitting it to the inner palace.

He asked questions now, but he couldn't help but feel in love.

Seeing that he could not be faster, he looked at him for a while, and then he ordered him to stop here with unfulfilled intentions.

Seeing the train gradually shut down, Emperor Longyuan and Concubine Xiande returned to Yuyun Garden.

As soon as Fang sat down, Emperor Longyuan ordered: "Carewell, come here quickly, and you and I will stop drunk today!"

"His Majesty."

Jia Yuanchun went to pour a cup of tea on his own and sent it to Emperor Longyuan with a graceful look. He advised softly: "You are just getting better in the past few days, but how can you drink too much?"

Seeing that Emperor Longyuan was a little unhappy when he heard this, he was busy and curious and asked, "How was this train built? I only heard that it could run, but I never expected that it could run so fast, especially so many things."

This was just scratching the itchy part of Emperor Longyuan, so he didn't care about drinking, and proudly explained the principle, and said: "It's a blessing that I have the wisdom to know people. If I only let those corrupt scholars control the Ministry of Works, I'm afraid I won't have any results in my life!"

"How do you say this?"

Although Jia Yuanchun had guessed that this matter was probably related to Jiao Shun, he still pretended to be curious and asked.

"After the northern border of Uxi Kingdom invaded Tianjin, didn't I order the Ministry of Works to supervise the construction of steam iron armored ships? As a result..."

Three years ago, the Wuxi people attacked the Tianjin Mansion, and the government and the country were in an uproar. Emperor Longyuan, who had long been interested in industrial reform, took the opportunity to make adjustments to the Ministry of Industry and listed the ordnance manufacturing as a single department.

At that time, his first intention to the Ordnance Department was to imitate the steam iron armored ship.

At that time, the Ordnance Department was Xinli, and he was also very energetic and thought that even barbarians could make things. How difficult would it be to build the Supreme Kingdom of our Heavenly Kingdom?

I was embarrassed to say that I wanted to be on par with the Uxi people, so I went straight to overtake on the curve!

But who would have thought that he would be too bragging and invested three years at all costs, and the "Authentic Invincible Iron Craft Ship" has not yet been officially launched yet?

Although there were no major breakthroughs in craftsmanship during this period, the layman didn’t care about you? As long as you didn’t see the ironclad ships in Daxia rushing on the sea, it would be a complete failure!

Although this matter is related to the national humiliation and no one dares to reject it on the surface, there are no strange things in secret?

Some even swear to declare that the iron-clad ship was actually so powerful by the witchcraft of the Uxi people. Because the officials and civilians of Daxia are not proficient in this way, no matter how hard they make, it will be useless to waste the people and lose money.

At first, this argument was just a strange and strange theory of some people. Recently, because the emperor insisted on establishing engineering, it became popular.

The censors even began to blatantly quote these absurd arguments in their memorials.

Emperor Longyuan naturally understood that this was a counterattack from the Wenchen Group, but the iron-clad ship was unable to enter the water for a long time, and it was difficult for everyone to block the truth if they could not provide evidence.

Just because of this, Jiao Shun offered a plan to fire the car.

The steam engine was the Ordnance Department, which was removed from the ironclad ship, built two small boats in Shichahai for testing. The steam engine ratio on it was just right.

Most of the things next to them were scraps of iron-clad ships. In addition, they did not hesitate to work hard and "medical and bold" designs with Jiao, and this trial-made train was created in just one month.

If we put aside the investment of the Ordnance Department for three consecutive years, this matter can be regarded as a model of small investment and quick results.

It is no wonder that Emperor Longyuan criticized corrupt scholars and ruined the country while praising Jiao Shun for his effective work.

Jia Yuanchun didn't understand the previous popular science, but she could clearly understand the following paragraph.

Looking back at the time when the emperor was superb Jiao Shun, he was actually just buying horse bones for a thousand gold coins, which made people sigh that things in the world were unpredictable.

This should have been a great help to Rongguo Mansion.

but……

Some problems appear to be happening between the two sides recently.

Although the news that the family had been spreading into the palace had always been good news but not bad news, Jia Yuanchun still vaguely realized that his father seemed to be a little repulsive to Jiao Shun.

She still doesn't know what the specific reason is, but because she doesn't know it, she can't help but think a lot...

"Love concubine?"

Emperor Longyuan was just talking about it, and saw Jia Yuanchun seemingly distracted. He immediately sank his face and said, "If you don't like to listen to these things, then I will..."

"Your Majesty misunderstood!"

The reason why Jia Yuanchun didn't write to ask clearly was that he didn't want the conflict between Rongguo Mansion and Jiao Shun to be exposed, so he quickly thought of an excuse and said perfunctorily: "I suddenly thought that although Lord Jiao has been in the Duke's Mansion since childhood, I have never seen him before, and I don't know what he was born."

"What's Jiao Aiqing's appearance..."

Emperor Longyuan actually only met Jiao Shun once, and he had never had a careful communication face to face. Now he is not very clear when he thinks about it.

"It's very burly, and it looks calmer than those scholars. As for the face..."

He was holding his chin and thinking hard, but suddenly he heard Qiu Shi'an report in front of the door: "Long live, the Donghua Gate has just sent someone to send a message, saying that the engineering priest Jiao Shun claimed that he had something urgent to do and he wanted to start the report in person!"

"Um?"
