Xiamaqiao Farmstead. Phu Quoc Mansion.

In the thirty-second year of Orthodoxy, Madi, the Duke of Phu Quoc, took over the post of Pope of Shinrikyo from Lan Guifei. Although the Ma family never participated in the military and political affairs of the Ming Dynasty, they still became the most prominent family of the Ming Dynasty.

In the palace, Concubine Ma gave birth to three daughters and one son for His Majesty, and was one of the most popular concubines of His Majesty.

As a wealthy prince and married the daughter of King Zhou, the Ma family relied on the monopoly of high-definition glass production and sales, and became the leading wealthy family in the Ming Dynasty, all of which increased the heritage of the Ma family.

When he was named the Pope of the Truth Cult by His Majesty, he led the world's scholars and took charge of the world's scientific research. Even if he does not participate in important military and political affairs, no one in the world dares to disobey his words.

Four years younger than Zhu Zhanji, Ma Di is also 61 years old this year.

Although Zhu Zhanji attaches great importance to it, Madi is not arrogant. As a simple-minded scholar who values research more than power, he still keeps a very low profile even though he has a lot of power in his hands.

In Zhu Zhanji's view, Ma Di is a simple scientific research worker. Such a person does not have to worry about what ambitions he will have, so he attaches great importance to Madi.

In his old age, Madi has been in charge of the secular affairs of Shinrikyo, and his scientific research energy has decreased a lot over the years. In fact, a scientific research worker, after entering old age, has already entered a period of decline.

Although he has lost his spirituality and spirit of struggle in scientific research, because of decades of experience, he can still play a huge role in controlling the research of the Ming Dynasty.

The Mansion of Phu Quoc was originally Zhu Zhanji's other courtyard, and Zhu Zhanji gave him a reward in the backyard except for the main hall, and Ma Di's family has been living here all these years.

He has been married to the lord of Kaiping County of the Zhou Dynasty for forty-two years and has five sons and one daughter. Because there are no concubines, these five sons and one daughter are all concubines.

Three of the sons are sons who have inherited their father's business and become Madi's helpers in his career. However, because Zhu Zhanji strictly forbade the emergence of scholars in the Shinrikyo cult, although they all had good achievements in their respective industries, they could not enter the management of the Shinrikyo religion.

The first daughter married Zhu Zhanji's fifty-two son, King Zhuang, and is now stationed in the Great Lakes region of the northern continent of Dongzhou with King Zhuang.

And the youngest son, Ma Dian, has been pampered since he was a child, and he has become Madi's only knot.

This kid was born in the nineteenth year of orthodoxy, and when he was born, Madi's eldest grandson had already been born. He was spoiled by his mother and several older brothers since he was a child, and developed a character that goes his own way.

If you want to be smart, he is very smart, and he has been fast in everything since elementary school.

When he was thirteen years old, he was in the laboratory of Madi's home, using a layer of insulating dielectric between two metal electrodes to make the first capacitor of the world.

This invention created a new stage in the application of electricity in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a power plant, or a variety of fan factories, motor factories, because of this invention, the application of electricity has entered a stable stage.

The invention patent of the capacitor made the thirteen-year-old Ma Electric a rich man, and he was personally rewarded by Zhu Zhanji, who canonized him as the rich Yang Bo of the Ming Dynasty.

But after that, Ma Dian began to hurt Zhongyong. From the age of thirteen to nineteen, he became a complete gentleman.

At the age of nineteen, he graduated from the Royal Institute of Technology, and Zhu Zhanji arranged for him to enter the Institute of Physics. hasn't worked for a month, because Ma Di married Yu Qian's granddaughter for him, in order to escape the marriage, he left a letter and ran to Dongzhou.

I went for two years, and then I became a groom at Dongzhou's sister......

Ma Di was so angry that he wrote eleven letters to him in a row, until the end of this year, when he was forced to return from Dongzhou.

As soon as he arrived home on this day, even the county lord of Kaiping, who spoiled him to the top of his heart, was annoyed, and directly asked the guards to press him in the courtyard, which was the top ten boards.

Ma Dian cried in the yard, and the lord of Kaiping also cried sadly in the house. Before the top ten boards were finished, he relented again and ordered him to go down and let go of Ma Dian.

Of course, the guards in the house knew that although Madame was angry, she liked this little son very much, and the momentum of the fight seemed to be very loud, but in fact, there was no flesh injury.

Ma Dian got up from the bench, squeezed his eyes with a few guards, and hopped into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt in front of his mother, kowtowed three times to the county lord of Kaiping, and said with a hippie smile: "Mother, my son came back this time and found more than a dozen pure white Dongzhou mink skins for you, which can make you a big coat and ensure that Yan covers the Tianfu." ”

Seeing that his son, who was originally white and pure, was now black and strong, the county lord of Kaiping was originally sad, and when he heard him talking nonsense, he couldn't help laughing.

"Palm! My mother is almost sixty years old, and she is still glamorous! ”

Ma Dian gave himself a mouthful, and without waiting for the lord of Kaiping to let him get up, he stood up, came over to support his mother, and said with a smile: "In addition to the child's gifts, the eldest sister has also prepared several cars of gifts for you, and the child also drew a few images of her grandson to her mother, so that her mother can also know the appearance of the two grandsons who have just been born." ”

The county lord of Kaiping originally liked this little son very much, just because he could coax people with his small mouth. Although he was annoyed that he had been running for two years, under his petty flattery, he untied the knot in his heart after a while.

In the yard, Ma Dian brought back seven or eight carts of gifts this time, and now he personally classified them, several sisters-in-law, as well as nephews and nieces who did not go to school, and after a while, they also became intimate with this somewhat strange sixth uncle.

Ma Dian is the fourth oldest among the men in his family, but the uncle has two cousins in the family, so he is called the sixth young master.

While the family was in the midst of a lively bustle, Madi, who had received the news, had returned from Shinrikyo. As soon as I saw the little son with a hippie smile in the yard, my heart was on fire.

Before Ma Dian could react, the two guards pushed him down on the bench in the courtyard again.

"Again!" Ma Dian glanced at his mother with a sad face, and before he could fight, he screamed. "Mother, help! Daddy, the child knows it's wrong. ”

Although Madi has a good personality and has been kind to his wife all his life, a person like him who does research naturally has his paranoid side.

The lord of Kaiping also knows his husband's character, and the two understand each other and are considerate of each other, so they have become a model couple in the capital.

Seeing Ma Di's face, she didn't persuade her, but just made a look at the guards who enforced the family law and asked them to beat lightly.

The beating just now was an errand, but now Madi is staring at the side, and he has to really hit a few boards anyway.

Seeing that he couldn't escape this catastrophe, Ma Dian could only hold a handkerchief in his mouth and lie on the bench.

After hitting the top ten boards, the county lord of Kaiping hurriedly called a stop, and the guards stopped, but although Ma Dian's buttocks were not skinny, they were also swollen.

Ma Di said hatefully: "Let you go for the time being today, and tomorrow you will go to the Yu Mansion to make amends, if you don't get Prime Minister Yu's forgiveness, you will continue to fight tomorrow." ”

Ma Dian hurriedly took out the handkerchief in his mouth and cried bitterly. "Dad, I just pinched Yu Wenzhi's little face, so I won't be with me for the rest of my life! At that time, I thought she was a little niece. I am your son, you have a relationship with Prime Minister Yu's brother, but let me marry his granddaughter, isn't this a bad generation! ”

Three years ago, Yu Qian's youngest son got married, and the relationship between the Ma family and the Yu family was irreversible.

Yu Wenzhi was only thirteen years old, and she was still a yellow-haired girl in Ma Dian's eyes, but because he pinched Yu Wenzhi's baby fat little face, he was kissed by the two families.

Although that little girl is not bad, he never thought of marrying her as a wife.

Ma Di ignored him, and instructed the guards: "You two have been keeping an eye on him for the past few days, and you can't forgive me from the prime minister, and give me ten boards every day." ”

A few little nephews and nieces were originally a little scared when they saw the sixth uncle being beaten, but when they saw his sad face now, they couldn't help but laugh.

The little nephew Ma Chong couldn't help but clap his hands and said, "Sixth Uncle will be beaten tomorrow, mother, remember to call me tomorrow to come and see." ”

This sentence made everyone in the courtyard laugh at once, only Ma Dian said hatefully: "You little conscienceless, you just want to see your sixth uncle beaten!" ”

However, his frustration was also for a while, and the lord of Kaiping County saw that his favorite youngest son had come back and ordered a big feast.

Ma Dian's three elder brothers, Ma Feng, Ma Yun, and Ma Lei, also returned, and the Ma Mansion was much more lively.

Ma Dian went to Dongzhou for two years, and kept talking to everyone about what he had seen and heard after going to sea. He is eloquent, and many ordinary little things have become thrilling in his mouth.

Not only did a few children listen with relish, but the county lord of Kaiping and Ma Di also rolled their eyes from time to time. Sometimes I know that he is talking big, but I don't expose him.

On the second day, Ma Dian's buttocks were swollen and tall, but he didn't dare to slack off, and early in the morning, he asked people to clean up all the gifts he brought back and prepare one for everyone in Yu Mansion.

Of course, the most valuable of this is Yu Wenzhi's part.

Although he was not interested in Wen Zhi, he also knew that his escape from marriage would have a great impact on her. The Yu family and the Ma family are world friends, and the relationship between the two families cannot deteriorate because of him.

Either way, it's only natural to apologize first.

As soon as he set off from home, Yu Qian, who was sitting in the State Council, got the news.

Hearing that Ma Dian had brought a cart of gifts to his house, he instructed the guards, "You go back and help me see what happened, and if this bastard is not honest, don't let him out of my house." ”

Ma Dian's buttocks were injured and he couldn't drive the car, so he could only let the guards send him to the palace.

When I arrived at Yu's house, before I got out of the car, I saw several aunts of Yu Wenzhi, and the aunts surrounded the car. "Ma Lao Liu, you bastard still has the face to come to my house. Let's go, let's go to the lobby of the criminal department first, and see how this woman from a good family should be sentenced! ”

This is Yu Wenzhi's second aunt Princess Hongcheng, although Yu Qian is a Wenchen, his eldest son Yu Mian is now Ying Tianfu Yin, the third son, and the fourth son are also in the civil official system, but his second son Yu Huang has loved martial arts since he was a child, and now he is the commander of the government army.

Not to mention that Princess Hongcheng is a princess, when it comes to relatives, Ma Dian also has to call her cousin. Her flirtatious horse electric could only bear it, and said with a smile: "Cousin princess ......"

"Who's your cousin? Don't talk to my relatives who are far away, according to Wenzhi's side, you have to call me the second aunt. ”

The smile on Ma Dian's face stiffened, and when he looked at the other elders, his heart began to feel bitter.

The original juniors have now become juniors!

And the five sisters-in-law, looking at the small truck following behind them, chirped and shouted "brother-in-law" one by one, and then they had to share the gifts.

Yu Wenzhi is Yu Mian's eldest daughter, and Yu Mian, a bastard, gave birth to six daughters, but he didn't even have a son.

No brother-in-law can bully, and he doesn't even dare to touch these five sisters-in-law.

No, I don't like Yu Wenzhi, a yellow-haired girl, where did she come from!

Yu Qian's wife, Dong, appeared at the door of the second gate at this time and said, "Look what you look like, let Mingguang get out of the car first before talking." ”

Ma Dian's heart was relieved, it was better to be Aunt Yu. He opened the car door and got out of the car, but heard Dong say: "Close the door and let the dog go!" ”

Ma Dian was stunned for a moment, and he panicked and wanted to hide in the car again. But seeing a group of women and children laughing non-stop, he remembered that Uncle Yu was a little asthmatic, and they didn't have cats and dogs at home.

He deliberately pretended to limp towards Dong with a hippie smile, clenched his fists and bowed, "Nephew Ma Dian has seen it...... Yes! ”

Yu Qian's youngest son Yu Jing is at home today, he is only five years older than Ma Dian, and he often played together when he was a child, and he was commensurate with brothers, and the two had a good relationship.

Hearing Ma Dian call himself a nephew, he kicked him in the ass from behind.

Ma Dian was hit by the board yesterday, his buttocks were swollen, and this kick was his ass, but it hurt his eyes, and tears almost came out.

Everyone laughed again, Dong stood on the steps, and said seriously: "I used to call me aunt, but now you are married to our family, this is naturally calculated according to the closest relationship, and you must remember to call grandma in the future." ”

Ma Dian has an urge to escape, but think about it, where can he escape?

He used to sneak away, but now he is being stared at, and he can't run if he wants to!

He could only bite the bullet and said, "Yu Jia...... Grandma, can you let ...... Sun Er met Wen Zhi last time, and Sun Er wanted to talk to her about some things. ”

Dong Shi waved his hand and said heroically like a general: "I already know what your kid is thinking, go ahead, Wen Zhi is waiting for you in the back garden." ”

This...... Ma Dian's heart complained, isn't it that the more he stirs up, the more he can't figure it out! He smiled and said, "It's not good, why don't you let her come to the front yard?" ”

"Yo, do you know how to speak now?" Princess Hongcheng sneered: "Where are you not familiar with our family? The night I got married, you were still under the bed for half an hour! ”

Everyone laughed again, and Ma Electric was embarrassed, so he had to bow his hand and walk to the back garden.

As for the few oil bottles that followed behind him, he just didn't see them.

He was really familiar with the Yu family, and he didn't want anyone to take him, so he came directly to the back garden. From a long distance, I saw a delicate back facing me.

There was no one else in the courtyard, and he strode deliberately and heavily, and walked behind her. "Little girl, are you satisfied?"

Yu Wenzhi turned around, lowered his head, made a lady's salute with him, and said softly: "Wenzhi has seen Brother Mingguang. ”

Ma Dian's heart was still a little aggrieved, and he wanted to find it back in Wen Zhi's body. But when she raised her head, her grievances turned into consternation, and when she looked at the delicate little beauty in front of her, he asked in surprise, "Are you ...... Writing! ”

Yu Wenzhi, who was thirteen years old at the time, still had some baby fat, and Ma Dian has always regarded her as a little girl.

But now the little beauty in front of her is sixteen years old, and she has faded away from her youth, and has become charming and charming.

His heart seemed to have been hit hard, and his original insistence seemed to disappear all at once.

Yu Wenzhi said softly: "Brother Mingguang, you have been going for two years, you should have enough fun!" Wen Zhi has also grown up, just waiting for Mingguang's brother to marry. ”

Ma Dian looked at the little beauty in front of him and was a little stunned. When he was a child, he did nonsense, and he walked all over the Qinglou in Yingtianfu.

After two years in Dongzhou, all the women over there had to work, and it was rare to find a few that suited his heart.

Originally, he just couldn't stand his niece's desire to become a wife, and he wanted to run out to play for two years, so he used the matter of marriage as an excuse to run away from marriage.

But now that I'm back, I realize that the beauty I dreamed of has always been by my side.

Seeing Ma Dian looking at himself in a daze, Yu Wenzhi was still very proud in his heart. She has lived in a small circle since she was a child, and she is very close to this "uncle" who often appears at home.

She knew that he was extremely smart since he was a child, learned everything quickly, and was praised by His Majesty.

And he was also good to them, and he often took him to play with him when he was a child. When he was twelve years old, he went to Putuo Mountain with his grandmother and uncle, and at that time, she wanted to marry this "uncle".

Although he was reluctant at first, he ran away from marriage. But since the Yu family and the Ma family both approve of this marriage, he can't run if he wants to.

Now, he is not standing obediently in front of him.

Ma Dian originally wanted to be reasonable, lay out the facts, and persuade this niece not to marry him.

Now, he couldn't say a word. "You are orthodox for twenty-five years...... Birthday in March......"

Yu Wenzhi nodded.

Ma Dian said again: "Speaking of which, your sixteenth birthday has passed, and you are seventeen years old, and you can get married." ”

In the twelfth year of orthodoxy, the imperial court issued a decree that in order to facilitate production, both men and women must be sixteen years old before they can marry.

After that, there will be no more child marriages, and those women will not have children because they are not yet adults, as if they have passed the threshold of life and death.

Yu Wenzhi nodded again, although his face was blushing, he still looked at Ma Dian with affection.

Ma Dian's heart was about to melt in this kind of gaze, and he couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little face again. "It's bigger, and there's less flesh on the face. You wait, wait for the beginning of spring, and I will marry you. ”

Several children next to him jumped up laughing and shouted. "Brother Ma wants to marry his sister, Brother Ma wants to marry his sister......"

Such a result is naturally happy for everyone. The Ma family and the Yu family were already good friends, and the two families got the news and soon began to prepare for themselves.

It's just that because it's going to be the New Year, the two families have discussed, and after the New Year, the wedding will begin to prepare.

Because of the patent of the capacitor, Ma Electric is very wealthy. And the Ma family is the richest duke's palace in addition to the royal family.

Organizing this wedding is not a burden at all for the Ma family.

Ma Xinma Guifei in the palace, who is almost sixty years old this year, is naturally very happy that her favorite nephew is going to get married, and she said at the beginning that she will personally officiate the wedding for them.

Even Zhu Zhanji got the news and gave special orders. PE was transferred to the Electric Power Research Institute to specialize in the study of new telegraphs and telephones.

Ma Xin likes this nephew, not only because this nephew is smart, but also because he has a sweet mouth.

But I am a little puzzled that Zhu Zhanji attaches so much importance to him.

Zhu Zhanji said: "In the past few decades, there have been many inventors and geniuses in the Ming Dynasty. But it was only in Ma Dian that I could feel the qualities of a true genius.

In your eyes, he is undisciplined and dissolute. But in my heart, he is a true genius. Genius is one percent talent plus 99 percent perspiration, but that one percent talent is the most important, even more important than the 99 percent perspiration. ”

Zhu Zhanji is telling the truth in this sentence, and now Ma Di, the most dazzling genius of Daming, has created the foundation of physics and laid the development direction of Daming physics.

In fact, in Zhu Zhanji's view, he is just a qualified scientist, not a genius.

Because all his achievements were actually created under the guidance of Zhu Zhanji.

Other than that, he was not able to create new inventions on his own.

But Ma Den, at the age of thirteen, was able to invent the capacitor. This is something Zhu Zhanji never thought of, because the role of capacitors is very critical to the application of electricity. He never imagined that the thirteen-year-old Ma Electric would be able to develop it.

Later, he hung up all day long, and he was still able to graduate from the first place in the School of Physics with excellent grades.

During his two years in Dongzhou, although he was still not doing his job, he was able to increase the efficiency of various machinery such as steam harvesters, threshers, and diesel harvesters by more than 30% with just a casual point.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanji never limited him as a genius and did not want to stifle his spirituality.

Zhu Zhanji's words were soon known to everyone in Ma Xin's propaganda, and everyone knew Zhu Zhanji's different view of Ma Dian.

At this time, Ma Dian himself was also reflecting on his behavior over the years, knowing His Majesty's expectations of himself, and now even the whole family pinned their hopes on himself, and he felt that he needed to change.

With such a beautiful wife, for the sake of his children, he should also do something down-to-earth.

That night, he found out some of the experiences he had recorded over the years and read them again from the beginning to the end.

Until dawn, he still didn't feel sleepy. Turning off the lights, he washed his face again, and then wrote the title "Conjectures about the Effect of Electromagnetic Induction" on a stack of white paper.

When Zhu Zhanji got this book, he immediately ordered an allocation of 300,000 silver dollars at the Xiamaqiao Electric Power Research Institute to help Madian establish a special research laboratory.

He also instructed Ma Dian, asked for money, asked people to give money, and set up a laboratory.

After he got married, the laboratory began to operate in earnest.
