Chapter 46: Righteousness and Meaning (Part II)
Looking at the appearance of the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that he is waiting for Han Yukun's good news. Iron boat, how can the wooden boat resist? When you can go on the water! β
The imperial wine on the case was as clear as water, reflecting the full moon in the sky and Feng Jing's smug smiling face in the cup. This is a rare opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. The wine is fragrant, full of stamina, and Feng Jing is drunk at this time.
Han Gang was a newcomer and was isolated and helpless in the ordnance prison. Seeing the lanterns of the iron ship, even if he wanted to say that the fire was an accident, he couldn't find anyone to follow the orders - it had already broken once, and in the two days before the Shangyuan Festival, I don't know how many people were guarding it day and night. Thinking that Han Gang could only be in a hurry beside him, watching the lanterns being dragged to Xuande Gate, Feng Jing couldn't help the happiness in his heart.
Han Jiang, who was at the top, looked down at the wine glass: "Han Gang has always been steady, but he didn't expect to act so lightly this time." I really don't know who taught it. β
Han Jiang seemed to mean something, but Feng Jing wouldn't admit it, so let him guess: "Han Yukun wants to open the wall of the school gate and spread the theory of Gewu." He pressed all the treasures on the iron ship, although he was indeed a little impatient. But young people, it is inevitable to be anxious. β
Han Jiang snorted and stopped talking.
Wang Jue said with a smile, "It's okay to be anxious, as long as you can see the work." β
Feng Jingha said with a smile: "With Han Gang's character, he has always been targeted, and he must have already made up his mind, so there is no need to worry about him." β
Lu Huiqing listened and sighed secretly, they were all clear-eyed people, and they were all suspicious and even sure that Feng Jing had done something. In fact, this was also because of the words Feng Jing said tonight in order to crucify Han Gang, so that he couldn't hide his actions.
Feng Jing is fearless, no matter what, he is not guilty. Is it possible to file a case for the Dengshan of the Ordnance Supervisor?
Unless Han Gang can take out the iron boat as soon as possible, the stigma on his body will not be washed away, even if he knows what about Feng Jing's hands? And even if he, Lu Huiqing, wants to prove his innocence, there is no way, whoever makes him the former judge of the weapons superintendent, anyone will suspect that he has a share of the credit.
Iron ships cannot be built, at least not for a few years. Whether Han Gang admits it or denies it, he will lose his reputation and lose the trust of the Son of Heaven. Without these two things, it would have been easier to drive him out of the capital.
After all, Han Gang was too anxious. β
As Han Jiang just said, before Han Gang built an iron ship, he had already written "Buoyancy Tracing the Source" in order to promote the theory of things, and it was spread all over the world. Whoever reads that book will think that Han Gang went to the Ordnance Prison to build an iron ship.
But this is actually a frivolous move β and even more humiliating to yourself. Just give the matter a gentle push back. Once Han Gang can't build an iron ship as soon as possible, the people in Shilin who look at him unpleasantly will not leave the slightest virtue.
'Self-inflicted! β
But Lu Huiqing felt that it was a disaster for him to be involved.
Two phases and two references, Lu Huiqing ranked the last. His qualifications are not as good as Wang Qi's, and his status is not as good as Han and Feng, but in the Chinese book, he still has the greatest right to speak. But this time, he was really hurt by Feng Jing.
stared at Feng Jing deeply, Lu Huiqing wrote down this account.
As for Han Gang, Lu Huiqing couldn't control it, so he could only send him four words - reap the consequences. Whether it is bitter or sweet, it is all planted by Han Gang himself.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Today is the Shangyuan Festival, but the Han family is just setting up a wine and feast, and the family members are gathering at one time, and they are not out to enjoy the lanterns. Han Gang should pass on the royal street, so he turned back directly, not to join the excitement.
The more lively the festival, the more chaotic it will be in the capital. In particular, human traffickers are most rampant at this time, and their favorite is the children of rich and noble families. The ornaments on the body and the person can be sold for a high price. Every year, we hear about the abduction of the children of an official. Han Gang is preparing to wait until the eighteenth day of the first month, when it is a little quieter, and then go out to watch the lanterns together.
"People are harmless and tigers are harmful, and tigers hurt people's hearts. Retreat also retreated, let also let go. Unexpectedly, Lu Jifu couldn't help but jump out. Han Gang tapped the table and beat to the beat of the music. The Tianzhang Pavilion Chen waiter, who lives across the street, invited a team of music bands to come to his house, and the sound of silk and bamboo reverberated in the surrounding streets and alleys.
Feng Congyi, who was drinking with Han Gang in the backyard of his home, asked softly, "Is it really Lu participating in politics?" β
Han Gang was silent for a moment. At that time, he saw Zeng Xiaokuan's flustered appearance, so he couldn't confirm it. However, Lu Huiqing's suspicion is indeed the greatest, who is Bai Zhang, and who among the weapons supervisors does not know what to do? It's just that Han Gang doesn't care who is the mastermind, he is already the winner, why should he care who the self-made smart loser is?
"But it's a surprising and amazing approach." For the past few days, Han Gang has been amazed by the method of forcing him to go to the grill, "After the lamp mountain was broken once, it took six days to create a new lantern in a hurry, and I only saw it two days before the Shangyuan Lantern Festival." Demolition and can't be demolished, it's too late to change, there are only two days left, and it's too late to do anything...... Shangyuan Lantern Festival, the lively is to watch the lanterns, not to make lanterns. The chief of the superintendent will not take the lanterns to heart, and they will all be left to the people below to be responsible. This is really a loophole, and it can't be prevented. β
Feng Congyi sighed leisurely: "It's a pity that I'm going back to Kansai, and I can't see Lu Shenzheng's expression of stealing chickens and rice." β
sighed, and laughed again. A world-famous handsome person, and a high-ranking official at the ruling level, but he is his cousin who can't help him even if he has exhausted his calculations, Feng Congyi certainly wants to laugh.
It's a pity that Feng Congyi is the big shopkeeper of SF Express, and he can't leave Kansai for too long, and he will go back after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. However, before that, the group of people that Han Gang asked him to arrange in the warehouse in the west of the city had already settled down, and the supplies were also well prepared. As long as Biankou has not been opened, the warehouse dominated by cloth merchants is quiet enough.
Han Gang rubbed the lines on the wine glass and looked up at the moon: "Just waiting for the manned spacecraft to come out, the current can only be regarded as a toy." β
"The two chickens are really too light." Listening to Han Gang's words, Feng Congyi couldn't help but laugh again. He laughed a few times, and then said regretfully, "It would be nice if it flew for a little longer." β
It's just an experimental hot air balloon with a total load of less than ten catties, and it has been built in the days of the Chinese New Year. It did leave the ground, but it was tied to a rope and did not fly high. This hot air balloon has a very simple structure, which is an air bag and a bamboo basket containing chickens. The airbag is made of paper inside the silk and is covered by a fishing net, under which is a bamboo basket tethered. Even the heating is on the ground, and when the heat is cold, it falls back to the ground, and the total time it floats is only a quarter of an hour.
But Han Gang was already very satisfied: "Don't be greedy. To be able to fly is to be successful. β
Feng Congyi nodded and agreed: "What my cousin said is that everything else is fake, only the spaceship flies." β
"Actually, the name is also very important. I have temporarily transferred several of them to the Armory Prison, and as long as the spaceship is built, it will be the credit of the Armory Supervisor, so as not to cause gossip. β
Although Han Gang is the newly appointed prisoner of military weapons, it is not difficult to put a few cronies in the prison, and it is even more reasonable. Which official takes office without a few capable people around him? Moreover, Han Gang did not use his power for personal gain to seize important positions, or some lucrative errands, but only gave him the status of an official, and he did not arrive for half a month after the year, which would not arouse opposition within the Ordnance Prison, or even pay attention.
Under the light of a full moon in the first month, Han Gang and his cousin drank hot wine together, chatting without a word. Success is just around the corner, and the mood is relaxed. Inside, the wives and concubines of the two were also chatting together, and laughter came out of the curtain from time to time.
It was only on the second watch that there was a sudden movement outside the door, first a noisy sound of horses' hooves, and then a rapid knock on the door from outside the gate to the backyard. Even the female dependents were alarmed, and they came out of the inner room one after another. Wang Yi asked Han Gang in disbelief, "What happened?" β
opened the door and invited someone in, but it was Lan Yuanzhen, an old acquaintance of Han Gang.
With a sharp voice, Lan Yuanzhen, who was also known to the Imperial Pharmacy Academy, conveyed Zhao Xuan's message: "The Holy Lord's Message, Han Gang, the Resident Housekeeper, the Judge of the Military Weapons and the Straight Dragon Pavilion of the Straight Dragon Pavilion, will immediately enter the palace to meet you." β
After Han Gang received the salute, the Han family, who had already gained experience, sent due thanks to Lan Yuanzhen and the people accompanying him.
Lan Yuanzhen thanked Han Gang for his salute, took half a step forward, and whispered: "Seeing the lightship put out by the Ordnance Superintendent this year, the official family is overjoyed. Feng Xianggong, Wang and Lu Er participated in politics, and they all played official houses and summoned people into the palace to ask each other. β
"I see, thank you for it." Han Gang nodded knowingly, there was no difference on his face, "Please be careful, and wait for Han Gang to change his clothes." β
After confessing to Lan Yuanzhen, Han Gang walked into the room.
Feng Congyi's face was anxious: "Why did you come so quickly?" Cousin, if you sit in front of you and want to build an iron ship, even if you build a spaceship later, you will be in trouble. β
"Don't worry, I won't say yes. And the iron ship is not exactly a faΓ§ade. If there is no backhand in everything, the worst thing to do is to be demoted and transferred. And I, I'm afraid, have died in the mountains of Qinzhou a long time ago and become a dry bone on the side of the road. When it comes to doing things, I am much more attentive than Feng Xianggong, Wang and Lu Er in participating in politics. β
"Really?!"
Feng Congyi was still very flustered. From Han Gang's words, he already knew who his opponent was. Although Han Gang is full of confidence, the opponent is one and two sides after all, and Han Jiang's attitude is also ambiguous. In the political hall, Han Gang is already an enemy!
"What about being a ruler? Their horizons are so small, what's the point of fighting around? After changing into a vermilion official robe and wearing a silverfish bag, Han Gang walked out with a soothing step: "Do you think that I, Han Gang, came to the Ordnance Prison just for the sake of fame?" He sneered, "The two lines of Li Yishan's [Li Shangyin's] poems are just right for the princes of the court!" β
"What?"
"I don't know what it's like to be a rotten rat, and I guess that the chicks are still alive!"
