Chapter 0403: As for the court

The first year of Xiping, the beginning of June

Ma Jun presented the improved overturning drawings.

The Son of Heaven looked at the drawings in his hand happily, Ma Jun wrote very carefully, there are detailed records in various places, although the Son of Heaven couldn't understand it, it didn't prevent him from nodding thoughtfully, showing great joy, Ma Jun also explained:

"This thing, the body is assembled with three plates into a long groove, a sprocket is set at both ends of the groove, the keel blade plate is used as a chain, through the long groove, the body is obliquely placed at the water's edge, the lower sprocket and a part of the long groove are immersed in the water, the sprocket on the shore is the main wheel, the shaft of the main wheel is long, and each end has four crutches..."

"A man leans on a frame, steps on a crutch, drives a chaining wheel, scrapes the water along the trough and rises, drains the water to the end of the trough, and then returns to the water along the top of the trough, and so on, and continuously sends the water to the shore, which is a ten-year-old child, who can be used and can lead to the water downstream..."

Ma Jun explained very clearly, however, the Son of Heaven only understood a sentence that can lead water, and it is extremely convenient, and it will not cost too much to build, which makes the Son of Heaven extremely happy, he grinned, smiled, and said: "Good, great goodness, this thing is a national weapon, agricultural and mulberry important things, Ma Jun has high merits, and he should be rewarded!" Reward!! ”

Hearing the words of the Son of Heaven, Ma Jun shook his head and said, "This thing, the minister only improved it slightly, and it was not made by the minister. ”

"Oh?"

The Son of Heaven's eyes became a little hot, and he hurriedly asked, "Then who is this maker?" ”

Ma Jun sighed and said, "It's what the court ordered Bi Lan and Song Dian to do..."

"Uh-huh????"

"What did you say??"

The little fat man's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, those two eunuchs, can they still make such a thing that benefits the country and the people?

Ma Jun said helplessly: "Your Majesty doesn't know, Emperor Xiaokang is diligent and thrifty and loves the people, and he is unwilling to start construction with the palace to repair the lake, but the palace roads are messy and dirty, and there is no lake to take.... It is detrimental to the face of the heavenly family, so Bi Lan and Song Dian made this overturned car together to take river water to clean the road...", Ma Jun slowly explained, "I have also seen this thing, and now I have improved it...."

The little fat man was silent for a long time, frowning, without words, he turned his head and looked at Han Men on the side, there seemed to be some annoyance in his eyes, Han Men immediately lowered his head, his face was a little ashamed.

"Alas... It's a pity..."The little fat man shook his head and said three words of pity, but he didn't say anything pity.

"This thing, you give it to Yuan Feng, let him implement it in the world, be sure to let all places know the use of this thing before next year, so as to Sheng Nongsang...."The little fat man said, Ma Jun nodded, and asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the name of this thing is?" I hope that Your Majesty will give you a name...."

The Son of Heaven grinned and said:

"It was called Xiping overturned ....."

"Yes!"

The Son of Heaven encouraged Ma Jun a few words, and let Ma Jun leave, Ma Jun has been busy improving the weaving machine recently, but there is no good idea, the Son of Heaven also hopes that he can make more such sharp weapons, can enhance the national strength of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Feng after getting the drawings, he was skeptical of Ma Jun's words, and then watched the first overturned car and the role of the first one with Ma Jun, Yuan Feng was overjoyed.

He could see at once how useful it was for farming.

This thing, not only can irrigate the mulberry, the most important thing, he can also be used as a weapon to resist waterlogging, such an item, of course, should be promoted as soon as possible, Yuan Feng did not hesitate, and immediately submitted this drawing to the local thorn history, asking them to use craftsmen to make overturned, hundreds of officials have never had a good impression of these strange things, even the local thorn history is also average.

However, Yuan Feng repeatedly explained in the letter that this thing is of great benefit to agriculture and mulberry and can resist waterlogging, which makes the assassins interested, after all, it can improve their political performance, not to mention that this is the order of the three princes, they hurriedly built it, and after the Han built the galloping road, the orders for various places were obviously much faster, and the Han Dynasty's post guards were close to 200,000 people.

Except for the more remote frontiers, the rest of the regions began to use the Xiping overturned cart built by Ma Jun, and his real builders, the hundred officials, disdained to say it, after all, how could the eunuchs make such a useful weapon? After really seeing the effect of the overturn, these officials came to the table one after another to participate in Ma Jun's contributions.

The Son of Heaven also summoned him and wanted to give a reward in front of the hundred officials, but Ma Jun refused, he thought that he was just improving, if the Son of Heaven wanted to reward, he could reward the real maker, Bi Lan and Song Dian, although Song Dian died, Bi Lan is still in his hometown, but the Son of Heaven did not agree, and the hundred officials also pretended not to hear.

When the matter reached the world, the officials said: "In order to please the Son of Heaven, the eunuchs made overturned cars to wash the floor, and spent money on the treasury. ”

Seeing the effect of the overturn, the people were happy, Ma Jun's fame gradually spread, after hearing that he was a disciple of Wen Rengong, the world's recognition of him was deeper, and the ministers of the court and the central government also talked about Wen Rengong from time to time, the Son of Heaven was silent, he really needed Wen Rengong such a great talent, Wen Rengong's quick wisdom, is unmatched by hundreds of officials.

Wherever there is a need to spend a lot of money, Wen Rengong can always make the most perfect proposal, and sometimes, even the prince will be shocked by his proposal, and even befriend him.

It's a pity that he doesn't have such a talent under his command.

Subsequently, according to the last words of the prince, the temple began to exterminate the locusts in the Sili area, among the hundred officials, there are still many people who oppose it, they believe that the locusts are the fish and shrimp in the river, when the drought is great, there is no water in the river, and the fish and shrimp are turned into locusts.... Compared with the statement of the locust gods of their ancestors, although they are much better, they are also extremely stupid.

In the court, there is only Cai Yong, who supports the last words of the prince, he thinks, this locust is just a worm, what fish and shrimp are turned into, it is all nonsense, the officials do not listen to him, and he argues, resolutely believes that the locust is the fish and shrimp, Cai Yong was angry, and brought Dong Yijun from the Taiwei Mansion, and told this group of ministers what fish and shrimp are like!!

Sure enough, when Donghao-kun began to talk about their bearded fish and shrimp, the ministers gave in....

You're right, you have the final say!

Pull this guy down!

In the past few days, the officials remembered the fear brought to them by the old lady in the past.

Cai Yong began to be busy in the Sili area, a large number of chickens and ducks, to inform the people of the method of driving locusts with fire, after Cai Yong's efforts, in August, there was no large-scale locust plague in Luoyang, there were locusts infested, but by the local people a large number of burned to death, and were eaten by chickens and ducks, the ministers also closed their mouths and lowered their heads.

In September, the Son of Heaven ordered the expansion of Hongdu Gate School.

On the basis of the Hongdu Gate School set up by Emperor Xiaokang, there is a "work", the so-called "work", which is such a capable person as Ma Jun, he invited Ma Jun to the Hongdu Gate School, so that Cui Wei took care of it, Ma Jun was originally reluctant to come, but after the Son of Heaven informed the purpose, he suddenly realized that the Hongdu Gate School was built in the Jianning period.

Emperor Xiaokang in Hongdu Gate School gathered a large number of books, paintings, poems, Fu of the famous masters, day and night study, painting and calligraphy, Emperor Xiaokang also loves this, often come to Hongdu Gate to learn to do Fu, under his efforts, the entire Han Dynasty style of rapid development and prosperity, now, the Son of Heaven to set up another work, which caused the dissatisfaction of these masters, how can Ma Jun, how can craftsmen, can be the same as us?

However, if today's prestige is flourishing, they dare not object, and can only hide their complaints in their hearts.

After the construction of the Son of Heaven, he summoned famous craftsmen from all over the world to work together with Ma Jun.

In a short period of time, a large number of talents have been obtained, most of these talents are in various places for official craftsmen, and they are proficient in the place, Hongdu Men School suddenly became lively, these vulgar craftsmen, often get together, loudly argue how to make, even Ma Jun can not convince all of them, although he is extremely respectful on weekdays, but in the craft, they do not admit defeat.

The ministers lamented that the Son of Heaven was addicted to the small way, and the country would be ruined.

The Son of Heaven completely ignored their dissatisfaction, vigorously supported these craftsmen, and rewarded a lot of meritorious people, the Son of Heaven showed so obviously, naturally brought a burst of atmosphere again, the previous Xiaokang Emperor period, in order to increase the number of cultivated cattle, the Son of Heaven had deliberately shown good cattle, hundreds of officials imitated, the world imitated, the number of cultivated cattle during the Jianning period skyrocketed.

Now it is also general, under the atmosphere of the good work of the Son of Heaven, this trend has gradually risen in the world, the Hu chair that was originally despised by everyone, is because the Son of Heaven likes, and is used by the hundred officials, sometimes, the hundred officials are the most determined, but at other times, they are always the first to approach the Son of Heaven The group of people, the Son of Heaven is happy to see such a situation, and does not stop it.

Seeing this situation, Cui Yu and Cui Gong also hurriedly wrote a "Heavenly Fu", dedicated to the Son of Heaven, and won a heavy reward again.

The craftsmen are fortunate to have made all kinds of items, and the rewards they have received are not as many as Cui Yu.... This is also helpless, Cui Wei has a great reputation in the literary world, and the influence of his literary endowment must be incomparable to that of craftsmen, which is also what the Son of Heaven cares.

With the emergence of various utensils that are beneficial to the people, the opposition among the officials has gradually decreased, from ancient times to the present, I have never heard of a king who is so fond of these craftsman's things, the Son of Heaven is the first time, but, at least the Son of Heaven loves these, it is better than loving to cut off the head of the minister, and the ministers simply do not interfere, however, in the pen of Tai Shiling, there have been unfavorable remarks against the Son of Heaven.

"The emperor is curious and skillful, and he sacrifices his roots to the end, and hundreds of officials do not obey them."

By October, Cao Cao had arrived in Luoyang, but the Son of Heaven was not in a hurry to summon him.

The little fat man sat on the Hu chair and looked at the table in his hand, which was Cao Cao's above, about the affairs of the Sanhan Navy and the Wa Kingdom, in the above table, you can see that within this year, the development of the Sanhan Navy has built nearly 100 big ships and trained nearly 10,000 sailors, but even if there is such a navy, it is still not possible to participate in the internal affairs of the Wa State.

Originally, Emperor Xiaokang wanted to divide the Wa Kingdom into two and integrate them to facilitate trade, but he didn't expect that the first emperor would collapse in the middle way, and the affairs of the Wa State would stop, and Himiko also took advantage of this time to immediately transfer his throne, so that the Han's intention to control the Wa State was destroyed, Cao Cao was helpless, but he was by no means incompetent.

He deliberately acted in front of Himiko, saying that the new monarch had the intention of crusading against the Japanese state.

Himiko was not easily fooled, although he showed panic, but he still did not plead with Cao Cao, Cao Cao did not say much, not long after, when the military supplies needed by Zhang Wen arrived in Sanhan, Zhang Wen personally led the army to Youzhou, and Himiko in Sanhan panicked, she could clearly see that the Han was indeed going to use the military, and tens of thousands of elites had gathered in Sanhan Youzhou.

Only then did she intercede with Cao Cao, and hoped to come to Luoyang again to meet the new monarch.

Zhang Taiwei's conquest of Goguryeo, only the hundred officials knew, and only a few people in Youzhou knew about the assassin history, Himiko naturally didn't know Zhang Wen's movements, and she saw that Cao Cao was going all out to build a warship, and her heart was naturally panicked, Cao Cao was going to come to Luoyang to meet the new monarch, so he brought her over directly, and the little fat man squinted his eyes after reading his table.

It was already late at night, and the little fat man stood up, moved his back, and looked at Hanmen on the side.

Han Men looked at the Son of Heaven a little blankly.

"Ahem, has the Queen Mother rested?"

Han Men's eyes widened, shook his head, and said, "The slave doesn't know ......"

"Bastard, don't go and find out!" The little fat man said angrily, Han Men hurriedly ran out of the Houde Palace, and after a while, he returned to the Houde Hall and said, "Country, the Queen Mother has gone to bed..."

"Okay, hurry up, take me to the court !!"

Han Men looked at the impatient little fat man, and wanted to object, but he couldn't speak, although the Queen Mother had an order, but in front of him was the king of a country, how could he dare to refuse? He hurriedly led the Yellow Gate and quietly rushed to the court with the Son of Heaven.

When he arrived at the court, the Son of Heaven looked around like a thief and said, "You are here to keep watch, and you are not allowed to enter, and no one is allowed to enter!" ”

"Yes!"

The little fat man laughed and hurriedly walked in.

When he walked into the court this time, fortunately, only Cai Meiren was here, she was chatting with the palace maid about something, saw someone walk in, turned her head, and saw that the person who came was the Son of Heaven, the palace maid panicked, and hurriedly bowed to him, Zhao Ji just glanced at him calmly, but did not salute, her glance, the little fat man was hot.

He waved his hand and said to the palace maid, "Get out!" ”

The palace maid hurriedly lowered her head and ran out, the little fat man grinned, sat next to Zhao Ji, stared at her seriously, Zhao Ji was extremely beautiful, a pair of bright big eyes, such clear eyes, she saw the little fat man like this, just glanced at him, that cute appearance, the little fat man was stunned....

"Your Majesty, come late at night, do you have something important?"

A crisp voice sounded.

The little fat man was stunned for a moment, didn't react, and asked, "Huh?" ”

"Your Majesty came late at night, but there is something important?"

"Hehe, you and I husband and wife, but since you entered the palace, there has never been a time when you can be alone, I miss it very much in my heart, so I came..."

"I hope Your Majesty won't be rude...."Zhao Ji frowned and said with some displeasure.

When the little fat man saw it, his expression was even more stunned, and he looked at her blankly.

"It's beautiful, it's beautiful..."
