Chapter 138: The Spirit Emperor is critically ill
"Lord Qiqi, this wooden kite looks ordinary, but the complexity of the process is not something that ordinary craftsmen can complete, and now only me and Mo Lao can complete it in the entire Youzhou, and Mo Lao's apprentice Mo Yu can barely be counted as half, and it is estimated that ten can be made in a year, which is already very reluctant." Ma Jun said helplessly.
"Cross." Liu Yao muttered. "Mo Lao, Deheng, you two just need to do your best."
"Thank you, Lord."
However, when Liu Yao and Ma Jun were talking, Liu Xin's girl finally had enough of playing and landed safely, and the heart that Liu Yao had been carrying could be regarded as letting go.
"Brother Huang, Brother Huang, this wooden kite is so fun, you can give it to me." Liu Xin walked down the wooden kite, ran to Liu Yao's side and said.
"No way!!" Liu Yao refused without hesitation, it was not that Liu Yao was reluctant to give up this wooden kite, it was really that Liu Xin was too wild, and he didn't look like a princess at all. If he plays under his nose, forget it, if she is out of his sight, I don't know what will happen to Lu Dao.
"Brother Huang, don't you hurt me?" Liu Xin's eyes were filled with mist when she heard this, and she was about to cry.
Seeing this, Liu Yao couldn't help but stroke his forehead helplessly, depressed, Liu Xin, this girl, came to this trick every time, but he Liu Yao really couldn't refuse, and he took the trick every time. Of course, this time it will not be spared.
"Okay!! But I can't give it to you, you can only play under my nose, or under the nose of Yan'er and Cicada. Liu Yao said helplessly. He may not be in Youzhou when he is not there, but with Cai Yan taking care of Liu Xin, Liu Yao can rest assured.
"Great!!" Immediately, the tears in Liu Xin's eyes instantly dried up, and he shouted happily. He also knew that this was already Liu Yao's bottom line, and he couldn't touch it anymore, and as long as he could play, it was enough, and the rest was not important.
Seeing this, Liu Yao looked like I had already known the truth, and said with a straight face, "Don't be happy too early, there are conditions for you to play." ‘
"Ah, what conditions, won't it be reading again?" Liu Xin said weakly. These days, Liu Yao didn't let him read, and he kept letting Cai Yan teach Liu Xin to study and sharpen her temperament, but now it seems that this has no effect at all, which can't help but make Liu Yao very depressed.
"Yes, as long as you haven't finished reading a book, then you can play it once, otherwise you don't have to say anything." Liu Yao said solemnly. Liu Yao can only use this method to let Liu Xin go to study more, otherwise how will this girl marry in the future. But Liu Yao completely forgot that Liu Xinnai was Her Royal Highness the Princess, and if she really wanted to marry, I am afraid that everyone who came to propose marriage could be lined up from Youzhou to Jizhou.
But since Liu Yao has become this elder brother, then he will never allow Liu Xin to be subjected to this kind of political marriage, and it is a man's business to fight on the battlefield, and to exchange women for temporary peace, so don't want such peace. Only someone who makes Liu Xin like it and can identify with him can be Liu Yao's brother-in-law.
"Oh!!" Liu Xin was a little reluctant, and said dejectedly.
Seeing this, Liu Yao rubbed Liu Xin's head amusedly, and didn't say anything more, after all, Liu Xin is still a child now, and she doesn't have the mind of an adult like Liu Yao, and when she grows up, she will understand when she thinks about it. After the trip to the wooden kite, Liu Yao took Liu Xinshi'a back to the general's mansion, and there was still a lot of work waiting for Liu Yao to solve.
The year 187 passed quickly. This year, in order to expand the culture of Youzhou Academy, Liu Yao made several books by himself, one is the main content of "Arithmetic", that is, the content of the ninety-nine multiplication table, this book came out, and was immediately favored by many arithmetic enthusiasts, especially for the accounting room, so that every account of the Huoyun Commercial Bank under Liu Yao is clearly calculated, and it is not at all as messy as the original.
There is also a copy of "Astronomy". Liu Yao recorded all the lyrics about the starry sky of the universe in this book. For example, the Sun is a gaseous planet. The earth under our feet is an oval sphere, not a rectangle as people think, the moon is a satellite of the earth and the like, the eight planets of the solar system, and so on.
A book of "Geography" tells that this earth is not only the land under our feet, but also other continents in that far away, the area of the sea is twice as large as the area of the continent, and there are crops called potatoes and corn on a continent thousands of miles away from Dahan, and the yield per mu is several times higher than that of sorghum today, and so on.
And also issued a notice, if anyone can bring potatoes, corn, etc., to the big man, a reward of ten thousand gold. Of course, this last sentence is just talking, Dahan's current navigation skills are not at all up to this level, and this can only depend on Liu Yao's efforts in the future.
As soon as these two books appeared, they immediately caused a reaction in Youzhou. Many people suddenly lamented that they were frogs at the bottom of the well, peeping leopards in the tube. It turns out that this world is so big, and for a while, a trend of exploration became popular in Youzhou. And the reputation of Liu Yao and Youzhou Academy is also even louder.
It was also in this year that in history, because Zhang Chun, who had a discord with Zhang Wen, did not join forces with Zhang Ju, a fellow Yuyang man, to rebel against Han Sui. This also saved Liu Yao a lot of trouble, after all, Yuyang was in Liu Yao's hands early, not to mention that the people of Youzhou now have enough food and clothing, who is willing to do that headless thing. Therefore, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, even Liu Yao didn't know where the two of them went.
As for the Karasuma and Xianbei tribes, Liu Yao was arranged under the resistance of the army on the border, and never stepped into the Han Dynasty half a step. was completely frightened by Liu Yao's Youzhou army. However, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, and now is not a good opportunity to eliminate Karasuma Xianbei.
In 188 AD, in order to consolidate his own power, the general He Jin proposed to Emperor Ling of Han to form the Xiyuan Army. Seeing this, Emperor Han Ling gladly agreed, but at the same time, Emperor Han Ling also made a small move, so that this power was still in the hands of the eunuch Jian Shuo, even the general He Jin had to obey his dispatch and command. It's really stealing chickens and rice.
In 189 AD, due to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty's long-term addiction to wine, he gradually became terminally ill, and Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song fought against the kingdom. After hearing that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was critically ill, Dong Zhuo was stationed in the east of the Tunhe River, supporting the army and waiting for the incident. For a time, the whole Luoyang was in chaos, and people were panicked. Because Emperor Ling of Han is about to die, but the crown prince has not yet been established.
No matter how the ministers of the court asked about the prince, Emperor Ling of Han only had one sentence: "I am fine, why do I need any prince." And he sent them away.
In the eyes of the ministers, this Emperor Ling of Han is about to die, so there will be such nonsense. But everyone knew that the shocking changes in the Dao court were about to begin.
For a time, the court was divided into three factions. The first faction is the conservative ministers led by Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun, who believe that they should follow the ancestral system, establish the elder rather than the young, and summon the eldest prince Liu Yao to Luoyang and make him the crown prince. It's just that they are the most insignificant.
The second faction was led by the general He Jin and the family Yuan Feng, who believed that the eldest prince was too violent and killed too heavily to be the crown prince, and that the second prince Liu Wei should be elected as the crown prince.
As for the third faction, it is naturally headed by the Ten Standing Servants, Liu Yao has already offended Zhang Rang to death, Zhang Rang will naturally not help him, and He Jin They are also the opponents of the Ten Standing Servants, so they elected the third prince Liu Xie as the crown prince.
For a while, there will be chaos in the court, and it won't take long for the sword to evolve into a real sword.
