Chapter 307: Building a Blast Furnace

Li Xiang was busy during this time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Not to mention that he wants to read to the prince, but also to tell the story to the little princess, and what makes him depressed is that the story is told too much, and there is always a time for repetition. He was too busy to remember, but the little princess remembered. But every time she waits until he finishes speaking, she reminds him, and then punishes him to repeat it, isn't this a toss?

I also have to go to Longtu Pavilion. The people here are all old Confucians, except for a few people, most people still have a disdain for him, maybe he has passed the pseudo-article in the "Book of Shang", that is, he has not been taught since he was a child, bold, in his own words, it is a copycat version. It also shows that he has no respect for saints, and if he does not respect saints himself, he will also find flaws in it, and there is nothing remarkable. As for those novels, they are even more disdainful, and there is glass or something, what kind of work does it do, it is a craftsman!

Li Xiang also knew that they couldn't eat grapes and shouted that grapes were sour. But he was happy to see that. It turned out that Emperor Rijong ordered people to annotate all the scriptures with punctuation marks that he invented. From the beginning of the debate to the present, it has never stopped, so that the book that has been engraved and published has been reprinted in one edition because it is inconclusive. If these old guys pull themselves in, they won't be annoyed. Don't want these short years, even until he crossed over to this world, he didn't settle these scriptures in his previous life. In his eyes, aren't these scriptures the truth of educating how to behave? It is possible to respect, but there is no need to put them at such a high altitude.

Then he also made cement in the Xiu Nei Division outside Lin'an City, and after the cement was successful, he had to supervise the blast furnace.

Li Xiang sometimes wonders if he has become a panacea. It was this year that Emperor Lizong should have had a serious illness, so even after Emperor Lizong recovered from his illness, his mind began to be confused, and political affairs were basically handed over to Concubine Yan Guifei. But now? Now Emperor Rijong is living more and more nourishing day by day. and the princess who made him gnash his teeth, is also a short-lived ghost, and now it has been a few months, not only can she not see her short-lived phenomenon at all, but her little face is white and pink, and she is getting healthier day by day, like a delicate little beauty.

Yan Guifei also heard the gossip of Li Xiang and the girl of the Lu family, as well as Miss Yuru, and several girls around him in the palace, and couldn't help but find an excuse to invite this Lu Shiya to the palace. ā€

Emperor Lizong rolled his eyes, thinking to himself who wouldn't want to, but in front of the interests of the country and the interests of his daughter, he and Yan Guifei had been discussing for almost half a year, but they didn't make up their minds. If this young man is an ordinary young man, it is a big deal that there is one less official in the court, and there are so many talents in the Great Song Dynasty, and he will not die. But Li Xiang: They are really ready to use it.

Lu Shiya and Yuru didn't know that they had brought such a big commotion to this prosperous capital, especially when Yuru saw Li Xiang every day, just like the New Year, she was both happy and happy. Every time Li Xiang came back late, she would sit at home and wait until Li Xiang came back and personally brought him laundry and face water.

Li Xiang entered the palace again, and at this time Li Xiang thought that he had forgotten that this matter was a small matter, and if a minister took the opportunity to make a statement, saying that he had deceived the monarch, it would be troublesome.

He said: "Weichen should be damned, he even forgot about it. ā€

The princess said on the side: "Lord Li, you are so bold, you actually expect to deceive your father, no, you will be punished, from today onwards, you will be punished for telling me three stories a day." ā€

Li Xiang rolled his eyes angrily, thinking that I was going crazy with my busyness, so I have time to tell you three stories.

Emperor Lizong said, "Emperor, don't mess around. Aiqing, I also talk about it casually, I also know that you are very busy, look at it. ā€

The ministers said in their hearts, you are so shameless, since you know that he is busy, why do you deliberately mention it? However, without the minister's advice, they dare to see it.

Zhao Ji said: "Lone understands that principle. Master Li said that air is also a substance, and it also has density, and that kind of hot air balloon is lifted into the air using the principle that the density of hot air is lower than that of cold air. But the height of this rise is limited, and the higher it goes, the smaller the gravitational pull of the earth, the thinner the air, and the less dense it is, and there is no way for the hot air balloon to rise again. ā€

He specially asked Li Xiang, and now he moved out to show off, which made the minister surprised when he heard it, but he didn't believe it in his heart. If Li Xiang said it, they would still refute it, but if the crown prince said it, they couldn't say that he was wrong.

But after Zhao Ji finished speaking, he also asked curiously: "How much will this height reach?" ā€

Of course, Li Xiang could not say that in addition to the air reason, there is also a limit on the ability of the human body to withstand air pressure. The standard height is 5000 meters. If they say it, they must wonder where they know it from. He said: "I don't know this Weichen, but the height will always exceed dozens of times that of this blast furnace."

Dozens of times? These ministers counted on their fingers for a long time, and all of them almost fainted. ā€

The princess was even more happy and said, "Then you can make it quickly, and I will go up and play." ā€

Li Xiang also echoed: "It's better to take five or six days to make it." ā€

Emperor Lizong wanted to agree, but seeing that Fan Zhongyan was eager to try, he hurriedly changed his words and said, "Don't panic, let's wait for you to get the blast furnace right." ā€

The fact that this blast furnace can produce good steel is also known to several important ministers. Compared with hot air balloons, it is a big deal for the country to have high-quality steel, not only related to shipbuilding.

Li Xiang thinks about it, the principle of the hot air balloon is simple, but he also needs to supervise it with one hand, otherwise something will happen, and it will blow up in mid-air, and people will fart. If the little princess or the old emperor is happy, it will be a big trouble to stay on top. He said: "Well, when the Spring Festival comes, one is to celebrate the New Year, and the other is to have a good time, and then make the hot air balloon well." ā€

Only then did Emperor Lizong leave with a group of ministers satisfied. After he left, these workers were more motivated, and even the emperor praised them for their greatness, and gave them a heavy reward, no longer working hard, I am really sorry for the ancestors and ancestors.

Li Xiang also went back very late. But when he saw a guest at home, he saw that it was the crown prince Zhao Ji and another young man.

After he saluted Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji introduced: "This is my eighth uncle's cousin Zihui. ā€

Zihui Li Xiang hadn't heard of it, but the eighth prince had heard of his calm personality, filial piety, and thoughtfulness, and he was very jealous of him at home and abroad. He hurriedly said that he had seen the son.

After the three of them sat down again, they began to talk to each other. It turned out that the kind of thing that Li Xiang said during the day that could make people fly into the sky also attracted the attention of this prince, and he begged the prince to leave the palace together and come to visit Li Xiang's home. When he asked Li Xiang for the reason, he was not Zhao Ji, he had been nurtured by him for more than half a year, and Li Xiang explained for a long time that he didn't figure it out. In fact, the talents of the prince's sons are not good, this Zihui still believes in Buddhism when he grows up, and the whole person makes the Buddha stupid.

Zihui asked curiously, "Master Li, how did you think of this?" (To be continued.) )
