Play big!

Yan Chengjin pinched a handful of sweat for Zhu Houzhao, the ministers and the people were there, wearing a eunuch's clothes, and Emperor Hongzhi did not beat him to death.

He helped Zhu Hou take a look, it was already dark, and the torches around him were not very bright, and he might not be discovered.

Zhu Houzhao's head was almost down to his chest, but the eunuchs walked like this in order to show their humble status, and he tiptoed past Emperor Hongzhi several times.

Suddenly, a sissy voice sounded in Yan Chengjin's ears, "Back to Your Majesty, Lord Yan has never said anything to the slave." ”

Emperor Hongzhi was numb, and even Xiao Jing had goosebumps.

"Whose sword is this, and how did it be emasculated like this?"

Zhu Houzhao felt that his body and soul were insulted, and glared at Xiao Jing, who was so frightened that he almost didn't cry.

When Emperor Hongzhi saw his face, his face was immediately full of anger, but he didn't expose it: "Nonsense! Stand by my side, and don't go anywhere. ”

Emperor Hongzhi sat on the throne, with Mu Bin on the left and Xiao Jing on the right, Xiao Jing naturally obediently vacated his place for Zhu Houzhao.

In the blink of an eye, the time came, and the discussion among the hundred officials became louder and louder.

Mu Bin walked up to Yan Chengjin and said, "Your Majesty asked me to tell you, if it is difficult to ride a tiger, just tell him." ”

Yan Chengjin was moved in his heart, Hongzhi is really a good emperor.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, it's here!"

With a drink, a rumbling sound came.

I only heard the sound of a car crushing on the ground from the depths of the street, Xiao Jing was shocked when he saw it, and the people were even more shocked.

"Escort!"

"Hurry up!"

The thing that was pushed over was the 'artillery'! Its muzzle was facing the noon gate.

Yan Chengjin hurriedly said: "No need to escort, don't worry, Your Majesty, it's a craftsman invited by the minister, and it's not artillery!" ”

Song Jing, a fool, actually put the 'cannon mouth' directly at this side, it was really fatal not to be shot to death by Jinyi Wei, and when he got closer, Zeng Jian came with him.

The 'artillery' was pushed in front of Emperor Koji.

Song Jing adjusted his posture again, aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the moon, and the hundred officials secretly said to themselves, could this still bombard the moon down.

Emperor Hongzhi stood up from the throne and walked to the side of the 'artillery', Mu Bin and Xiao Jing followed him closely, and Emperor Hongzhi found that this cannon was different from ordinary artillery, and the muzzle of the cannon turned out to be a round mirror.

Li Dongyang and the others also widened their eyes and carefully looked at this "artillery".

Emperor Hongzhi wondered, "Yan Qingjia, what is this?" ”

"This mirror can see thousands of miles away, so the minister calls it a telescope, and Your Majesty will know it at a glance."

Emperor Hongzhi took a closer look at the mirror, the moon seemed to be pulled in front of him, and he was suddenly startled, Xiao Jing hurriedly supported him, Emperor Hongzhi turned his face and looked around, only to find that he was not mistaken, and was surprised: "In the blink of an eye, how did the moon become several times bigger?" ”

Yan Chengjin said: "Your Majesty, can you order someone to put out the lights in the capital?" ”

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Mu Bin will do it quickly." ”

The yellow light in the night sky was extinguished one by one, and the capital was suddenly plunged into darkness, Yan Chengjin said again: "Your Majesty, look again!" ”

Emperor Hongzhi got closer to the mirror and saw the gray mountains and rivers, as well as potholes, like a mine that had been dug up.

"This is the moon in the sky?" Emperor Hongji's voice was full of incredulity.

"Yes."

"What's next to this?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister called it Cheng Jinxing." Yan Chengjin's face was not red and his heart was not beating, in fact, it was Jupiter, Jupiter was the largest among the planets, and it was very easy to observe, and Galileo discovered it when the first telescope was made.

Zhu Houzhao was unhappy: "Old Gao, why isn't it called Houzhaoxing?" ”

"The stars in the sky don't have names yet, whoever discovers them first will be called by whomever they want, and the ministers discovered them first, so they naturally want to be called Chengjinxing."

The telescope is an artifact developed from glasses.

When Song Jing made glasses, Yan Chengjin asked him to make a telescope and put it in the yard, so that he could watch meteors in his spare time.

He thought about it for a long time, and it was perfect to use it to break the rumors.

The production of lenses is an extension of the process of glasses, which are cut and polished to a fine finish.

The body of the pipe is made of copper and leather, which was not that long, and was lengthened once by Song Jing, but the outline of the moon can only be vaguely seen, which is not very real.

The reflected light in the lens barrel will affect the clarity of observation, and the blackest material was used to coat the astronomical telescope in the last life to reduce the reflection of light.

But at present, the Ming Dynasty can only use plasticity copper to make the lens barrel, and then use leather to solve it.

This is how Galileo made the first astronomical telescope.

Zhu Houzhao was impatient, and he didn't care that he would be recognized: "Father, let Erchen take a look, Erchen hasn't seen the moon yet." ”

When the hundred officials heard that they could see the moon, they couldn't wait to go up, where could they take care of Zhu Houzhao, first Xie Qian of the cabinet couldn't hold it back, "Your Majesty...... The minister also wants to see it. ”

"The minister also wants to see it!"

"The minister also wants to!"

"The minister wants to take a look too!"

Yan Chengjin said: "Your Majesty, it's better to let the people see it first, the thief said that the blood moon was done by Maitreya, where is there any Maitreya on this moon, after the people saw it, the rumors were self-defeating." ”

Because he was too excited, Emperor Hongzhi's shoulders trembled slightly, and he muttered: "Yes, let the people see first!" ”

Seeing so many officials and guards there, where did the people dare to step forward.

Emperor Hongzhi immediately ordered the Jinyi Guard and the factory guard to retreat, and the people stepped forward one by one, and with an exclamation, more and more people flocked up.

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said: "You guys, don't break it, the palace hasn't seen it yet." ”

Emperor Hongzhi was relieved that the thief was the reason why he was born to a palace maid, and slandered him for bringing disaster to the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Yan Chengjin knew that from tonight onwards, the rumors would stop at the Song Telescope.

"Please consciously line up, observe the moon in a civilized manner, and don't damage the official's Song telescope."

The two brothers, Ning Shouhou and Jian Changbo, were also queuing, and they were not happy when they heard it: "This is from the imperial court, how can you say that it is yours?" ”

"Brother is right, this is the imperial court."

"This is made by Song Jing by the minister, and there is still a note in his hand, but the court has not allocated it." Yan Chengjin knew that the two brothers had the idea of hitting the Song telescope.

There are three gold medals in his hand to avoid death, and his father is guarding the border, and he is not afraid to say this in front of Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi also knew what kind of virtue the Zhang brothers were, and gave them a warning look, so he said to Yan Chengjin: "How much silver did I spend, I bought it, and put it in front of the noon gate to show the people." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, 10,000 taels of silver!"

Emperor Hongzhi's old face twitched, and he gasped: "Why is it so expensive?!" ”

"The minister invited the best craftsmen in the country, and spent a lot of materials, so he said that the instruments and tools for grinding and drilling cost a lot of silver." Yan Chengjin is not afraid that Emperor Hongzhi will not buy it, and if he doesn't buy it, he just pushes it home to play.

Zhou Yu asked tentatively: "Your Majesty wants it?" If you don't want it, you bought it. ”

This 'artillery' was made by him.

Song Jing didn't tell him what he was used for, he knew that he could see the moon in the sky, he said that he would buy everything, and the Francos and the big cannibal might pay a sky-high price to buy this thing.

The ministers looked at Emperor Hongzhi with blank eyes, Your Majesty, you can't pick it at this time!

I saw Emperor Hongzhi gritting his teeth and saying ruthlessly: "I bought it, put it at the noon gate, let the people look at it lightly, don't break it, the silver comes out of the inside, you go back to the palace with me to get the silver." ”

Emperor Hongzhi returned to the palace, but the hundred officials did not follow, they all wanted to see this new thing, especially the Qintian Prison Zhengluo Jing, he calculated the celestial phenomena day and night, and with this thing will be like a tiger with wings.

But there are too many people, Emperor Hongzhi said let the people see first, who would dare to rebel?

The officials all lined up at the back, and at the front was Zhu Houzhao, followed by the three cabinet members, and then the Zhang brothers and Chang Ningbo.

A petty official like Luo Jing has long been squeezed behind.
