Chapter 34 Toilet Paper

Last night was full of messes, but also full of spring, which made people feel like a dream.

But as the biological clock rings, life has to go on, no matter whether you are a prince or a nobleman or an emperor.

Therefore, whether it is practicing martial arts or eating, Liu Rong has to do it himself. I don't know if Liu Rong often muttered in front of the three queens, and the words about the family should unite played a role or what the reason was, the three queens didn't come over, and only the little monkey he hadn't seen for a few days was with him.

The little monkey has not worried about eating and drinking these days, whether it is the maid or the eunuch guard in the palace of nourishing the heart, they all know that this is the emperor's pet, so every time they see it, they will feed it food, and after a few days, they have almost gained a punch, and their size has faintly become a little bigger.

After practicing martial arts, taking a bath, and eating, Liu Rong sat in front of the hall, and put thick blank silk and pen and ink on it.

The three queens looked at each other one after another, and they didn't know that the emperor was going to do it? Is there something new to draw? The three of them all thought of their current personal things, before the emperor went out of the palace, the three of them had observed themselves in the bronze mirror alone, and even blushed when they looked at themselves, but these close-fitting clothes, as the emperor said, were extremely comfortable to wear, and they felt quite good to sleep at night.

Now that the emperor is going to write again, the three of them are curious.

Among the three, the queen was the most respectful, so the queen was the first to speak and asked, "Your Majesty, what is new about you?" Hurry up and talk about it before the concubines! ”

The Li family and the Wang family also nodded in agreement.

Liu Rong smiled, pointed to a few thick silk silks and asked, "Three concubines, don't you think it's too troublesome and wasteful to write on silk silk?" Wouldn't it be better if you could write on paper? ”

Li asked, "What Your Majesty said is Cai Hou paper?" Then he shook his head and said, "No, Your Majesty, Cai Hou's paper is rough, dark and uneven, and it is not enough to write and survive!" ”

"So!" Liu Rong pretended to be mysterious and said, "I want to improve it!" Which of you will study ink for me? ”

"The concubine is coming!" The queen said that under normal circumstances, Li Wang's second clan does not compete with the queen.

"Wuhou paper is rough, is the raw material, its mostly use linen, hemp rope and the like, hemp fiber is rough and hard, not suitable for mashing, and the papermaking process is not correct. After improvement, it can be smooth and flat, and it can also be written and bound! ”

"Your Majesty, Moyan is ready!"

Liu Rong grabbed the pen, dipped it a few times, and began to write on the silk.

Materials: bamboo, water, silk, smooth slate, etc.

Tools: cauldron, fuel, etc.

As he wrote, he was thinking, not thinking about the method of making paper, which was something that elementary school students would have done in his previous life. Rather, I was thinking about how to write some characters in traditional Chinese.

Method: Chop the bamboo pole, boil it in a large pot, mash it after cooking, the better it is, filter out most of the water with silk, spread it on the smooth stone slab, scrape it flat and dry, and it can be made into paper. This is papermaking.

The queen picked up the silk silk written by Liu Rong and asked, "Your Majesty?" Can this paper really be written? ”

Liu Rong said with a smile, "This paper can be made into several kinds according to the degree of raw materials and fiber mashing, and after a while, I will make toilet paper, and it is estimated that you will all worship me!" ”

In his previous life, Liu Rong was thinking about a question for a while, that is, how did the ancients wipe their butts in ancient times when there was no toilet paper.

Crossing over here, he learned that the rich families used silk, the little rich families used linen, and the poor families used clods.

It's the kind of thing that is made into small pieces with clay and water, and dried to wipe the buttocks, which is also a disposable thing.

The ancients were still wise.

"Toilet paper?" Li leaned down and asked, "Your Majesty, what is toilet paper?" ”

Liu Rong said, "This paper is soft and absorbent, and it can be used to wipe your butt after going out!" It's much easier to use than silk! Silk is soft, but it doesn't absorb water! Think about it, what if the poop you pull is a little thinner, and after rubbing it, it flows and slips off the silk? ”

Wang snorted and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, you are so disgusting!" ”

"So, this paper absorbs water and is very easy to use! Oh also, you women, when your sister is on the occasion of the menstruation, the blood belt used also has silk hidden in the belt, and it is still the same sentence, if the silk is replaced with toilet paper, it is more absorbent, and you can be more comfortable! ”

Liu Rong said, the faces of the three of them blushed slightly and recovered, they were all married women, but after listening to Liu Rong's words, they had a strong interest in this toilet paper.

The queen grabbed a few silk silks and said, "What Your Majesty said is true?" If that's the case, that's great, you don't know, Your Majesty, that the concubines are really miserable on those days of the month. Saying that, she turned around and said to the Li family, "Two sisters, let's go together, and tell our subordinates to prepare what Your Majesty said, and let Your Majesty try it to see if you can make toilet paper?" ”

"Uh-huh!" The Li clan and the Wang clan nodded in agreement.

"Ahem!" Liu Rong was choked and said, "I want to make writing paper first!" ”

But seeing the queen walking to Liu Rong's side, she leaned over and grabbed Liu Rong's arm, and slowly shook it, "Your Majesty, in a few days, when the concubine's moon comes, you should make the toilet paper for the concubine first!" ”

The queen said with a solemn expression.

"Yes, so are the concubines!" Lee's conformity.

Wang also said, "Your Majesty, so are the concubines!" You don't want your concubines to spend a few days in a panic! ”

Liu Rong exclaimed, "Shouldn't your dates be about the same?" ”

"Hmm!" The three of them snorted, but they nodded in unison!

"I'll go!" Liu Rong scolded secretly, and then returned to the silk silk and said, "The bamboo is still too hard, you replace the bamboo with cork, just poplar wood!" ”

"Good come!" The queen shouted, then turned to the Li family and said, "Two sisters, let's take action!" It's just that this smooth slate is a little hard to find! ”

"By the way, toilet paper doesn't need to be too smooth, just a flat plank!" Liu Rong added.

When I looked up, there was no trace of the three people in the hall, and I could only hear the three people shouting outside the hall, "Come on, you two lead three guards to cut down some poplars and come back!"

The two of you go to the dining room and find a cauldron and firewood! ”

"Back to the queen's mother, the firewood in the dining room is taken from poplars, okay?" One of the guards asked.

"Okay?" The queen looked into the hall.

Liu Rong said loudly, "Yes! ”

"Your Majesty said yes, you guys go quickly!" As the queen spoke, another order was given.

For a while, the personal eunuchs and palace maids brought by the three of them were all arranged to go out, and they returned to the hall.

"Your Majesty, if there's anything else to pay attention to, write it quickly!" The queen said with an expectant look.

Liu Rong shook his head and said, "That's it, I won't write it for now, and I'll concentrate on making paper in the next few days!" ”

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, please drink tea!" The queen served Liu Rong a cup of tea.

"Your Majesty, the concubine sings and dances for you, Chun Tao, Chun Tao, come and stroke the qin!" Li Shi said, no one answered after half a ring, and then he stuck out his tongue and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine forgot, Chun Tao was arranged by the concubine to find something!" ”

Wang also said, "Your Majesty, the concubine will repair the book for her father, let him prepare a smooth slate, the concubine estimates, Your Majesty still needs it!" ”

"Of course you do!" Liu Rong nodded.

"Your Majesty, tell your concubine quickly, what kind of slate is it?" Wang asked again.

"I'll draw it on you!" Liu Rong said, then took another roll of silk, on it, painted the appearance of the slate, and made a detailed explanation next to it, as well as a scraper. With the financial resources of the Wang family, it is very easy to make these things!
