This cripple's name is Su Xian, and he can't participate in the system like him, but he has a younger brother named Su Shen. Su Shen was a jinshi in the third year of Tianxi (1019), and was originally a magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture (responsible for the trial of cases), but later due to Zhao Zhen's reform of the administrative system, he was transferred to the General Judgment Court to serve.

Seven years ago, Su Shen's family gave birth to a child, this child was none other than Su Song, a famous astronomer and pharmacologist in the Northern Song Dynasty, and Zhao Zhen naturally took a lot of care about Su Shen.

Because of this, Su Shen is qualified to recommend his younger brother to participate in the system.

The subject system is an exam presided over by Zhao Zhen himself, so he did it more casually, sent away those talents who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and left Su Xian alone and asked: "Brother Ling told me that you have liked Qiqiao since you were a child, and you will tell me a little bit about it?" ”

Su Xian pouted one leg and arched his hand towards Zhao Zhen very awkwardly: "Back to the emperor, the grass people were naughty when they were young, and they broke their legs when they climbed a tree, and they became what they are now." It is precisely in this way that the grass people could not gain fame, but fortunately, the family background is quite solid, and the grass people can survive so far under the care of their father and brother. This time, my brother wrote a letter to ask the grass people to come to the capital, I thought it was to have a play, but I never thought that my brother would let me participate in the system, if the emperor blames, please punish the grass people! ”

Zhao Zhen asked Xiao Shunzi to bring a chair and put it in front of him: "Brother Ling, how can I blame!" Relax, sit back and keep talking! ”

Su Xian saluted again before continuing: "It is precisely because of the inconvenience of the grass people's legs and feet that they can only pass the time by reading books at home, probably because they don't think about scientific research, so the grass people read a lot of miscellaneous books. In this process, a lot of strange thoughts appeared in the grass people's minds, and for a while, the father mistakenly thought that the grass people had hysteria!

In fact, the grass people know that it is only because of their inconvenient legs and feet that the grass people want to be free more, so when they see the birds in the sky and the fish in the water, they yearn for it infinitely. However, man cannot fly like a bird or swim like a fish.

Therefore, the grass people thought of a toy that they played with when they were young, which is the kind of bamboo dragonfly that is very common among the people, and it can fly into the sky as long as it is turned. Therefore, the grass people wondered if they could make a big bamboo dragonfly and take the grass people to the sky......

"The result?" Zhao Zhen asked anxiously with surprise on his face.

Su Xian rubbed his hands and said with a little blush: "Back to the emperor, the grass people are imitating the content of a book written by Ge Hong of the Jin Dynasty, in which he has this account: 'Or use jujube heart wood as a flying car, and use ox leather to tie a ring sword to lead its opportunity. Or remember to be five snakes, six dragons and three oxen, and take advantage of it, rise forty miles, and be called Taiqing. In the Taiqing, his anger is very strong, and he can win people. "But the grass people made this 'flying car', and it only flew a few feet before it fell......"

Zhao Zhen pretended to be stupid and asked, "Why is this?" ”

Su Xian thought for a while before replying: "Back to the emperor, the grass people think that their strength is too small, and it is very difficult to turn this big bamboo dragonfly, and it won't take long to turn before it is dull." ”

"Then do you think that if there is something that can spin in your place, and it is still very powerful, can this 'flying car' of yours fly very high?"

"Should...... I guess I can! Su Xian replied uncertainly.

Zhao Zhen didn't point out this problem to him, he was already very wise to think about making this thing, and it was very unrealistic to force him to say one, two, three. Moreover, those "scientists" in ancient China had a common problem, that is, they would think about how to use it, but they didn't think about why they could use it. Just like Su Xian, he will imitate, but he will not think about the root cause of "flying", maybe he also thought about it, but he didn't find the answer. In short, throughout Chinese history, the ancients almost ignored the study of theory, but passed it on as a skill.

In order to resolve the embarrassment of the conversation, Zhao Zhen changed the topic: "Brother Ling said that you have made a lot of strange things, so let's talk about it, in addition to this 'flying car', what else is interesting?" ”

Speaking of this, Su Xian became interested, and he felt like a few family treasures: "Back to the emperor, the grass people have done a lot of unreliable things in their lives, and they have only relied on this kind of messing around to get away with the years so far." It's a shame to say that although the grass people have tinkered with a lot of things, there are not many that really make the grass people happy, in addition to this 'flying car', there is also an 'underwater boat' ......"

"Underwater boats? What's that? ”

"Back to the emperor, the 'underwater boat' is a boat that walks underwater, and the grass people only thought of it when they saw the fish, and the grass people thought of swimming underwater like the fish. For this reason, the grass people specially observe the fish for a long time to see how they move...... Later, the grass people made a wooden box and decorated it in the shape of a fish......"

"Haha......" When Zhao Zhen heard this, he fantasized about a fish-like wooden box in his mind, and laughed out loud when he thought about it.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Su Xian looked at the emperor who suddenly laughed in surprise.

"Nothing! You go on! Zhao Zhen hurriedly suppressed his smile and returned to his more solemn appearance.

Su Xian nodded kindly: "Uh...... The grass man got in and sealed the lid, but it didn't take long for him to lose his breath and climb out in a hurry. Later, the grass people figured out that they should stretch a pipe for themselves outside, so they installed a bamboo pipe on the roof of the boat, and this time it was no problem for you to stay for a long time. Then, the grass people asked the servants to put the boat on the water, and then the grass people also got in, but after tinkering for a long time, the boat just floated on the water, and refused to get into the water, so the servants pressed it into it together, and as soon as it was released, it floated again...... Later, when the grass people thought of pressing it down with stones, they made two nets on both sides of the boat, and when they wanted to sink it, they asked them to load stones on you, and they took out the stones when they wanted to do so. ”

"I have some questions, according to you, it's not convenient for you to get this underwater boat up and down, you can't move yourself, and you need someone to help outside, how do you communicate with people outside? Do you need to shout? Also, you stay in that wooden box, it's pitch black, you can't see anything, what's so fun about that? ”

"Emperor Shengming, you knew that there would be so many problems as soon as you heard this, but the grass people didn't think of it at the time, they were just doing it with their feelings. Just like you said about the communication problem, the grass people did shout at first, but when they went into the water, they found that they shouted inside, and they couldn't hear it outside, and then the grass people used to knock on the wall of the boat to carry out simple communication, as if knocking once is sinking, and two times it will rise. At the beginning, the grass people watched the fish swim so freely, thinking that it was fun under the water, and they experienced it themselves, but it was indeed quite boring, and they couldn't see anything, and the grass people heard that those superb glass windows could be seen outside in the house, and they also wanted to press a window for the underwater boat, but this superb glass was too expensive...... The grass people had no choice but to stop there! ”

"And then?"

"Then, my brother wrote a letter asking the grass people to come to the capital."

Zhao Zhen stood up abruptly and patted him on the shoulder: "Very good!" I have decided to give you the same Jinshi background, take my handwriting, go to the Royal Academy to study for a few more years, and then I will guide you to perfect the 'flying car' and 'underwater boat', I am very interested in these two things, Aiqing work hard! ”

Although his legs and feet were inconvenient, Su Xian still completed the kneeling with his most nimble movements, and he didn't know whether he was excited or frightened by Zhao Zhen.

"Thank you...... Thank you, Emperor Longen! Su Xian shouted tremblingly, tears unconsciously hung in the corners of his eyes, after so many years of being a burden, he can finally add some light to his family. Although he is just a Jinshi, he is still a Jinshi anyway! One and two jinshi, what a dignified thing to say!

Su Xian hurried home with joy to report the good news, who said that if you are lame, you can't walk fast, you look at the speed of others, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a brisk walk!

"If my compatriots in a thousand years later knew that I would soon get a helicopter and a submarine, although there is still a long way to go before it can be put into practice, it is also very rewarding to develop this concept first...... Alas, it's a pity, such a sense of accomplishment, no unlucky guy crossed over to show me an admiring look, this excitement always feels like something is missing, well, let's go to my wife to show off! Zhao Zhen muttered to himself for a while, and walked towards the queen's bedroom with a dazed face.

Zhao Zhen fixed Xiao Shunzi outside the door, walked into Zhang Rou's room, quietly drove Chunlan out, quietly walked behind Zhang Rou, and hugged her: "Wife, what are you doing?" ”

"Emma! I'm scared to death! Zhang Rou was concentrating on planning her "earth-shattering plan", and was hugged by Zhao Zhen unexpectedly, so she was naturally so frightened that she almost screamed, and looked left and right, but didn't see outsiders, so she said: "Husband, why are you here today, didn't you hear that you are doing some kind of subject exam?" ”

"Don't say it, it's not interesting to choose a specialty student this year, except for qinqi calligraphy and painting or qinqi calligraphy and painting, we are indeed good enough at that time, but there are many people who can play these well, and it is not easy to choose a specialty from among them! Fortunately, in the end, there was still a little gain, and I finally found one that was different from the others. Wife, let me tell you, this person is interesting, you know? He's actually playing the idea of helicopters and submarines......"

Zhao Zhen said very energetically to Zhang Rou, but Zhang Rou was busy touching up her makeup, and she couldn't experience the excitement of her husbands at all. In the end, in order to echo her husband's inner needs, she tried to put on a look of worship: "Wow! My husband is so awesome! Husband, you play first, I'm going to find the queen mother and they play, three are missing one, and they have sent someone to urge a few times, obediently, I'll go first! ”

Zhang Rou pecked Zhao Zhen a few times on the face, and then ran out with a show, leaving Zhao Zhen depressed and alone in the empty room, the life of the technical house, no matter how long it passes, God will not let it change it.

In these years, there is no computer, and no matter how much the technical house is, he doesn't want to stay at home, and it didn't take long for Zhao Zhen to follow Zhang Rou to Kunning Palace with Xiaoshunzi.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard a crackling sound inside, and it was clear that a fierce battle had begun.

Zhang Rou saw Zhao Zhen walk in, in this kind of crowded occasion, he had to get up and obediently greet him, and after a busy job, everyone's attention was focused on the mahjong table.

"Emperor, are you interested in playing with your mother?" Liu E pointed to the mahjong table and said to Zhao Zhen with a smile.

Although Zhao Zhen has never played mahjong before, he is confident that there is no problem playing with these "rookies". Besides, there is a lot of time that I haven't spent with them, so why not take this opportunity to communicate and communicate feelings!

"The Queen Mother is invited! I should obey! ”

So, Zhang Rou, the youngest of her generation, had to give up her position to Zhao Zhen, but she herself ran to slap up with her mothers-in-law and became their dog-headed military advisors, wandering between them, uniting together to slaughter him fiercely.

Since it is playing mahjong, it must be indispensable to "gambling money", but gambling money in the palace is too cheesy. Therefore, the gambling funds of the four of them before were their own jewelry, not because they lacked jewelry, but simply to enjoy the sense of accomplishment that they won from others and brought to themselves.

But after a long time, it's quite boring to change between these few people, if you want to go to other emperors' concubines or something, they can't let go of their hands and feet, and they are very boring to play. Today, when I finally caught the emperor, I naturally had to take something out of him before I would give up.

Under Zhang Rou's prodding, the three mothers-in-law quickly reached a united front, but they underestimated the power of the pig's foot halo too much, and Zhao Zhen crushed them very luckily regardless of the technology.

Zhao Zhen looked at the pile of jewelry in front of him and smiled arrogantly: "Hahaha...... Mother, do you still want to play? I don't think you have any jewelry on you! Oh, I've been suppressing myself a lot, who made me so lucky! If you don't want to win, you can't win! ”

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he also gave Zhang Rou a provocative look: Sample, I want to fight with my husband, it's far away!

Zhang Rou glared at him, walked up to him one by one, and whispered in his ear: "Sample, don't be arrogant, I thought my sister couldn't cure you!" Wait and see! ”
