Chapter 175: Gu Lai fought a few people back
"Your Majesty forgives me, the minister just thought about things for a while, and fell into the ......"
Zhao Huan waved his hand, stopped what Xie Huan wanted to say, and said, "It's okay, take me in and have a look." ”
Xie Huan hurriedly led the way in front, and the group soon came to the blast furnace where the iron was smelted.
According to Zhao Huan's instructions, Xie Huan had already put this wet practice aside, and instead built this blast furnace, filling iron ore from the top of the blast furnace, and using charcoal to ignite the fire below, wanting to turn this iron ore into molten iron.
From afar, Zhao Huan felt a wave of heat rushing towards him.
Xie Huan led Zhao Huan to the top of the blast furnace, from this position, Zhao Huan could see that the iron ore had become soft and was about to turn into molten iron, but it was still soft after all, and it was not really molten iron.
"Your Majesty, the minister has tried a lot of methods, even if you add more coal, there is still no way for this iron ore to really become the current molten iron." Xie Huan said a little frustrated.
Although Zhao Huan of later generations studied engineering, he did not know the technical principle of ironmaking, and when he encountered such a problem, he couldn't say how to solve it for a while.
If this matter cannot be solved, then it will be difficult to make iron in this blast furnace.
"Is there any other way?" Zhao Huan asked rhetorically, one person is short in wisdom and two people in wisdom, but Zhao Huan knows that he can't do everything himself, otherwise he can't do everything well even if he is tired.
Xie Huan shook his head and said, "The minister and all the masters who will be the prisoners have thought of a way, and in the end, it is still such a situation. ”
Zhao Huan and Xie Huan circled around the iron furnace again, constantly thinking about the improvement method of this iron-smelting technology in their minds, but they didn't have any thoughts for a while.
waited until Zhao Huan left, but still did not discuss a feasible plan.
"Tomorrow I will issue an order to search for skilled craftsmen who can solve this problem throughout the country, and I don't believe that no one in my country will know this way to raise the temperature." Zhao Huan is safe, Xie Huan said.
Zhao Huan drove back to the palace, but at this time he regretted why he didn't study hard when he was in school, so even if he crossed now, he was constrained everywhere.
Maybe it was because he felt that Zhao Huan was in a bad mood at this time, there was still a light rain in the sky, it was already the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, so it was an autumn rain and a cold, after the rain, Zhao Huan was blown by this cold wind, and Zhao Huan actually felt a cold.
"Your Majesty, it's cold this day, the old slave will add some clothes for you." Cheng Dafu said to Zhao Huan under the dragon.
"Not really, I'm not cold!" Zhao Huan waved his hand and said.
After saying this, Zhao Huan's mind lit up, and he felt like he had suddenly grabbed something, and it seemed like he hadn't caught anything.
Zhao Huan couldn't help but pull his hair hard, which was a signature action he tried to think of one thing.
"Your Majesty, are you alright, but you have a headache? The old slave will pass on the imperial doctor to you. Cheng Dafu was startled when he saw Zhao Huan's bizarre movements on the side, and hurriedly said.
"That's right, I thought of it!" Zhao Huan suddenly said with some excitement: "Stop, go back." ”
"Your Majesty, we're heading back." Cheng Dafu hurriedly said.
"No, it's not going back to the palace, I'm going to be a prisoner." Zhao Huan said with some excitement.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, Your Majesty should go to the prison tomorrow, if there is really an emergency, it is better to order someone to summon Lord Na Xie over." Cheng Dafu whispered comforting beside him.
Zhao Huan was right to think about it, it was not suitable to rush back immediately at this time, otherwise it would seem that he was too impetuous as an emperor.
"It's okay, you send a message to Xie Huan and tell him that there is a way to try, that is, to increase the temperature of the outside world, so that the temperature in the furnace is less emitted, and when the temperature in the furnace increases, this iron ore should be able to turn into molten iron." Zhao Huan said to Cheng Dafu.
Cheng Dafu didn't understand what Zhao Huan meant, but he didn't need to understand, so he immediately sent someone to send a message to Xie Huan, as long as the words were passed to Xie Huan, he could understand it.
After thinking of the solution to the problem, Zhao Huan was in a good mood, but this day was not beautiful, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was actually a splashing situation, Zhao Huan looked at the rain curtain, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Cheng Dafu told everyone to be careful, the benefits of this rainy day are basically not available to pedestrians on the road, until he saw the palace gate from a distance, he was completely relieved.
However, before Zhao Huan could enter the palace, he had a war horse from afar, a messenger who was in an eight-hundred-mile hurry.
At this time, the herald was already soaking wet, and a bamboo tube escaped from his arms, and shouted to the guards of the palace city: "Zhengding City is eight hundred miles urgent, and it will be presented to Your Majesty quickly!" ”
Zhao Huan took the bamboo tube from Cheng Dafu's hand and took out the rice paper from it, which was not soaked under the protection of the bamboo tube.
After reading the contents of this rice paper, Zhao Huan couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, the seed master Dao died of illness.
The Seed Master Dao is already over the age of old, when Zhao Huan sent him to the expedition, the old general was still very strong, and now it is only half a year, but he did not expect to die in the army.
Drunk and lying in the field, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times!
The news of the death of the seed master Dao made Zhao Huan's heart sink, to be honest, Zhao Huan still has a lot of respect for the seed master in his heart, this time he won, he originally wanted to wait until the end of the Song-Jin peace talks, and then transferred him back to Bianjing to live for a long time, but he didn't expect that he didn't wait for this day, so he let go.
"Spread my message, starting tomorrow, I will fast for three days to remember the old general of the planter." Zhao Huan said to Cheng Dafu.
To tell the truth, Zhao Huan's words made Cheng Dafu startled, the Song Dynasty emphasized literature and light martial arts, and the status of this military general was very low, Zhao Huan did this, that was to give enough face to these generals, although Zhao Huan has always attached great importance to military generals, but he did not really take any measures to raise the identity of military generals.
However, now this is enough to make the generals in the world raise their eyebrows, and the status of the generals will inevitably be greatly improved from now on.
"Spread the decree, bury the general of the seed master Dao, I want to come to the memorial in person, and posthumously present the opening ceremony and the three divisions." After returning to the palace, Zhao Huan said to Cheng Dafu.
Fasting for three days, coming to the memorial in person, from the oracle to the holy decree, it shows Zhao Huan's respect for the way of the planter.
According to historical records, half a year after the death of the seed master, the Jingshi was lost, Zhao Huan couldn't help but be a little speechless, thinking that this history should have changed now.
