In the Hongnong Palace, when Ye Zhao arrived at the palace, he saw Liu Wei discussing something with several masters of the Shengong Battalion, and the argument was very fierce.

A little curious, he stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Minister Ye Zhao see His Royal Highness." ”

"Ye Qing came just in time, come and take a look at the new things that Gu has been researching in the past three years!" Liu Wei rushed to Ye Zhao's side excitedly, and pulled Ye Zhao away, with little strength, but Ye Zhao couldn't break free, so he had to follow Liu Zhao to a huge plan.

"This is the ......" There are several models on it, Ye Zhao's eyes shrank slightly, looked at Liu Wei and said, "This is done by His Royal Highness?" ”

"Not exactly." Liu Wei shook his head, pointed to a few masters and said: "Shu has changed a lot in the past few years, and Gu also wants to help Ye Qing do something, but in terms of military and politics, Mo said that compared with Ye Qing, all the wise men in Ye Qing's mansion are far more than Lone, and they can't help much, so they study this science of things and do something that is beneficial to the people." ”

Seeing that Ye Zhao stopped talking, Liu Wei pointed to a model of utensils and said: "Ye Qing and look, Lone named this car as a clamp car, according to the principle of catapult transformation, if this thing can be made in kind, as long as the rope is tough enough, it can raise the weight of ten thousand zhang by more than five zhang, as long as this clamp car is strong enough, it can even be raised to ten zhang, and you can use ropes and machines to pull the bracket and adjust the angle at will, which can save a lot of unnecessary manpower!" ”

Catapults are actually using the principle of leverage, in fact, although people do not have a theory, but in practice, many places will use the principle of leverage, in the science of physics, Ye Zhao will add this one plus pulley into a separate chapter, waiting for those scholars to perfect.

It's just that Ye Zhao didn't expect that the first person to apply this principle to practice was Liu Bian.

"There is also this thing, with the waterwheel as the prototype to improve, with the help of the impulse of the water flow, the water can be pumped out, irrigation, this Shu water and soil are fertile, but it is useless, but if there is a shortage of water, you can use this thing for farmland irrigation, so that the scope of cultivation will be larger."

In addition, Liu Wei has also improved the existing seeders and harvesters, and according to Ye Zhao's eyes, they seem to be not bad, especially the things named by Liu Wei as clamps, which are clearly the ancient version of the crane!

"Ye Qing, how is Lone doing?" Liu Wei looked at Ye Zhao, and his expression was like a child who had done something and was waiting to be praised.

"Very good, but can you make a real thing?" Ye Zhao smiled and nodded, looking at several other masters.

"Hui Lord, it is still in the deduction stage, and no real thing has been made." Several masters shook their heads, this is also the reason for their quarrel before, if the things they made failed, it would not only be a waste of effort, but also a waste of energy, although they also recognized it, but the funds of the palace had to be nodded by Ye Zhao.

"Practice is the only way to verify, and if you deduce it here for a hundred years, there will be no results." Ye Zhao said: "In my opinion, His Highness's model has been done quite well, and next, it will be troublesome to deduce it." ”

"Ye Qing agreed?" Liu Wei said excitedly: "Ye Qing doesn't think I'm losing my mind by plaything?" ”

"Plaything? Says who? Ye Zhao looked at Liu Wei and frowned, now the Gewu class is already a formal discipline and has been included in the academy, and he has told everyone more than once that this Gewu is not a strange skill, why are there still people in Shu now spreading this concept?

"Cai Weng, Ren Ming and other great Confucians." Liu Wei sighed and said, most of his knowledge was taught by these people.

"Your Highness, it's not that the minister doesn't recognize the teacher." Ye Zhao touched his chin, looked at Liu Wei seriously, and said: "Whether it is His Royal Highness, ministers or teachers, the princes of the Central Plains, including the Son of Heaven, are the distributors of wealth in this world. ”

"For example, the wealth of the world adds up to one stone, we are responsible for only deciding how to distribute this wealth, no matter how it is distributed, this wealth is only one stone, the real creation of wealth is these small people, farmers farming, growing food, can increase wealth, craftsmen make these utensils that are beneficial to the people, such as His Royal Highness's clamp cart, seeder, harvester, these can greatly increase the efficiency of farmers' farming, this belongs to the creation of wealth, just imagine, if the people of the world, If they all sharpen their heads and want to be the distributor of wealth, and no one is willing to create wealth, the wealth in the world will become less and less. ”

Looking at Liu Wei's suddenly realized expression, Ye Zhao smiled and said: "Now the princes are strife, the world is in chaos, no matter who wins in the end, but this is a fierce consumption of wealth, and we develop utensils to increase the production of the people, maybe in the eyes of many people, this is just a small road, but every improvement of these utensils can benefit future generations, but what can we, the princes, do?" Fighting each other, no matter who wins in the end, is actually destroying the world, and may be brilliant for a while, but ask yourself, in future generations, in this world, who has really done something beneficial? After the world is reunified, how much will be left? ”

"Ye Qing really sees it clearly, so it's not wrong to be lonely?" Liu Wei said excitedly.

"Of course!" Ye Zhao looked at Liu Bian, who exuded a momentum all over his body, and couldn't help laughing.

Not only Liu Wei, but also a group of masters around him, listening to Ye Zhao's words at this moment, he couldn't help but show a look of joy, as the de facto king of Shuzhong, Ye Zhao's words can be regarded as a stimulant for those of them who are tirelessly seeking the path above craftsmen and objects.

"Ye Qing really sees it clearly." Liu Wei suddenly lowered a little, looked at Ye Zhao and said, "Then can Ye Qing tell Gu that after the world is reunified, will he still be a big man?" ”

Ye Zhao raised his head and looked at Liu Bian, and unconsciously, Liu Bian, who rarely showed a confident look on his face in the past, had become a handsome young man, with a little less cowardice and more confidence between his eyebrows.

"Of course." After a long time, Ye Zhao said something that even he didn't believe very much.

"Ye Qing is both military and political, Cai Weng once said that Ye Qing is a rare talent in a century, with Ye Qing's words, he is relieved." Liu Wei looked at Ye Zhao and smiled.

The innocent and cowardly teenager in the past is no longer innocent and cowardly, and he understands some tricks, but he ......

"Your Highness only has to do what you like, as for this world, the ministers should do their best to share the worries of Your Highness." Ye Zhao got up and said, "It's not too early, the minister has other things to do, so he will retire first." ”

"Ye Qing will go by himself, don't worry about the lonely." Liu Wei lowered his head, no longer looked at Ye Zhao, and carefully fiddled with the things on the table.

Ye Zhao nodded and withdrew from Liu Wei's main hall.

"Whoever is on duty today, let her come to see me!" After leaving the main hall, Ye Zhao summoned a female guard of the Nefan camp and said in a deep voice.

"Whoa!" The female guard bowed and quickly left.

After a while, Ren Hongchang came over, bowed to Ye Zhao and said, "See the lord." ”

"Or when I'm the lord?" Ye Zhao looked at Ren Hongchang's eyes carefully and said in a deep voice.

"Why did the lord say this?" Ren Hongchang knelt down on one knee and said.

"Follow me." Ye Zhao looked around, took Ren Hongchang straight out of the palace, and ordered people to guard the left and right in a side hall outside the mansion.

"My lord, what happened?" Ren Hongchang looked at Ye Zhaodao.

"What has Prince Argued been doing in the past three years?" Ye Zhao looked at Ren Hongchang and said.

"Recruit craftsmen, occasionally discuss with Cai Weng, and in addition, Zhang Song, Ren An, Qin Mi and others will come to lecture for His Royal Highness." Ren Hongchang bowed and said.

"Who are those craftsmen, and have they ever been recorded?" Ye Zhao asked.

"Whoever enters or leaves the palace is recorded."

"Zhang Songnai is engaged in it, and he has no right to enter and leave the palace, why is he allowed to go?"

"Cai Weng invited, His Royal Highness interceded in person, and it was not easy for the last general to stop him." Ren Hongchang told him how Zhang Song had entered and left the palace in the past three years, and among them, Cai Yong was invited by Zhang Song.

"My father-in-law has been used as a gun again!" Ye Zhao sighed, three years is enough to change a person's cognition, and it has been too long for him to leave this time.

"My lord, are you going to stop Zhang Song and the others from visiting His Highness from today?" Ren Hongchang raised his head and looked at Ye Zhaodao.

"No, the wood is already in the boat, and it's useless at this time." Ye Zhao shook his head, looked at Ren Hongchang and said, "Hongchang, can I still believe you?" ”

Ren Hongchang took out a short sword from his bosom and said in a deep voice: "Hongchang has today, it was given by the lord, Hongchang has no half of his heart for the lord, this heart, I am willing to tell each other with death!" ”

"Smack~"

Without saying a word, he stabbed the dagger into the heart, and was simply resolute, without hesitation, but was stopped by Ye Zhao, looked at Ren Hongchang and said with a smile: "Yin carved people, there is no way to cultivate a dead soldier like Hongchang, you go back and continue to be on duty." ”

"Whoa!" Ren Hongchang bowed, said goodbye and left.

Ye Zhao stood with his hands in his hands, looking out of the door, now Shuzhong is in power, originally, he didn't want Liu Wei to get involved in this troubled world, to be a prince with peace of mind, worry-free life, he also gave some explanations to the dead Liu Hong, Liu Wei, and Cai Yong, but now it seems that it is impossible to live a comfortable life.

Zhang Song, Ren An, Qin Mi!

Ye Zhao clenched his fists, sneered and shook his head and sighed lightly, did he really think that Liu Wei could have any effect on himself? Or...... What other means do these people have?

It seems that before sending out his own troops, it is time to clean up this cheng/capital again.

"Check!" Ye Zhao suddenly said loudly into the air: "Who have Zhang Song, Ren An, and Qin Mi been dealing with over the years, generals in the army, disciples of the academy, who has anything to do with them, even if there is enmity, they must be investigated!" ”

"Whoa!" After a promise, there was no more sound.

These three people are the main force, as for their father-in-law...... Although he has said that he is a traitor, he is obviously not this material.
