Chapter 19: The Friendship of Old and New
readx;.
Yun Zheng was very dedicated when he fed Yun Yue, so after the conditions were met, he paid great attention to the tableware, toys, and clothes used by Yun Yue, especially the cups that Yun Yue used to drink water. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The red clay in Shu contains a lot of lead, and the red clay is not suitable for making porcelain, so Shuzhong has never been famous for porcelain.
Yun Zheng knows the mystery in the red clay in Shuzhong, he doesn't want Yun Yue to use lead-containing utensils to eat and drink water since he was a child, so the lead content in it is negligible, and he is not willing to take risks.
For children, lead is something that must not be touched, and the main thing that hurts the human brain and nerves is this.
The ancient Romans paid the price of blood.
In the thirtieth century BC, the Roman republic collapsed, and Roman history entered the era of slave empires. At that time, the Roman Empire had become the only hegemon in the Mediterranean.
Years of expansion and aggression against foreign countries, successive military victories, and the expansion of the empire's territory made the slave economy continue to prosper and develop. However, after more than 300 years of heyday, the Roman Empire suddenly began to decline, and by 476 AD the Western Roman Empire finally came to an end.
Historians have offered many explanations for the sudden decline of the mighty Roman Empire, but archaeologists have discovered an extremely important cause that historians have overlooked: lead contamination.
It turned out that the Roman Empire had already mastered advanced metal smelting technology in the early days. The glucose syrup and wine used by the ancient Romans were boiled in lead pots.
They added lead powder to reduce the phenolic flavor and bring the lead content to a very high level, which can cause poisoning after a small spoonful.
Those noble ladies who drank heavily continued to have miscarriages, malformed fetuses or stillbirths, and infertility. This deadly lead poisoning has plagued the Romans from generation to generation.
The Roman aristocracy shortened their lifespan in their love of wine, with an average lifespan of twenty-five years. Also lost fertility. Half of the Roman aristocracy was infertile, and even if they did, they were intellectually and physically weak.
On the eve of the fall of the Roman Empire, the scourge of lead pollution had reached its peak...... Since the process of lead poisoning occurs very slowly, it is not expected that the cause of the problem is lead utensils. All they know is that their bodies are getting weaker and weaker, and their intelligence is getting lower and lower.
Therefore. The fall of the Roman Empire was taken for granted.
This kind of profound knowledge naturally belongs to Yun Zheng alone, although the Great Song people are not very fond of such things as lead, except for some Danshi who often use lead to make pills, his remaining value is mainly used to defend the city and seal some things.
Of course, the most important role is to be used for copper smelting, mixed with lead and zinc copper. It becomes bronze with high hardness and stable shape.
However, no one knows that lead is actually a must-have medicine for home travel.
When Cui Da was making a batch of dishes for the Yun family, Yun Zheng inadvertently explained this point to him, and he forgot about it after he said it. Such knowledge was not at all uncommon to him.
However, Trida remembered it, and after remembering it, he never forgot it......
Over the past ten years, Cui Da has gradually perfected the new concept of lead poisoning, and he has come up with a very precise dose, and he has even turned this assassination door into a systematic science.
Based on the Song people's understanding of lead, even if you boil water with lead and give them to drink, they will gladly accept it. If you make it more elegant, you will even get the praise of some literati who like pills.
In other words, Cui Da persuaded you to drink poisoned wine in front of you. People who don't know will also drink it happily, and Cui Da thinks that this is the highest level of killing, at least in terms of cognition and wisdom, it can crush them, so that even if they go to hell, they will not trouble you.
Trida smashed the three casseroles in front of him, and there were fragments of a casserole on the ground. This is the casserole that the prince broke when all the pieces were thrown into the mill. Trida stepped on the grinder with her foot, happily crushing the casserole fragments into a pile of powder.
Caught in general. Sticking his hand out the window, the powder was carried away by the evening breeze as soon as he let go......
After doing these things, Cui Da washed his hands and then made himself a new pot of tea, which was a new tea from Taihu Lake, and the fragrance of tea overflowed after the water was boiled......
The dead air had already permeated Zhao Zhen's cheeks, and a large area of blue-gray had already occupied half of his cheeks, and the thin breath of the gossamer required Zou Tong to listen carefully to perceive.
The silent pin drop in the main hall can be heard......
Originally, there were some smart eyes, but now they are like a pool of stagnant water.
"Your Majesty, do you want some honey?"
Zhao Zhen blinked his eyes a few times, Zou Tong couldn't stop crying, and prayed: "Your Majesty's great trip is still far away, don't say such unlucky words." ”
Zhao Zhen's eyes turned to the desk beside him, and Zou Tong hurriedly picked up a secret letter and said with a strong smile: "Your Majesty don't worry, Yelu Yixin's position in front of Tongtou Pass, Yunhou's letter said that it is not worth it!"
He also said that no matter how elaborate the formation, it was a big joke in front of the artillery.
Wen Yanbo also coarsely laid out a golden lock array called what is called the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array on the grassland according to Yelu Yixin, and wanted to test Yunhou's cognition of the military formation, but as a result, the artillery commanded by the general was razed to the ground during the meal, and Wen Yanbo himself was captured by Yunhou's scouts.
You don't know, Wen Yanbo made a bet with Yun Hou before setting up the formation, as long as Yun Hou can easily break the formation, he will act as Yun Hou's groom for a month, and if Yun Hou can't break the formation within one day, Yun Hou will act as Wen Yanbo's cook for a month.
Obviously, Yunhou won, and Wen Yanbo really lowered his body to be a groom.
What else do you say, the big husband is hard to chase after a horse! ”
Hearing the good news, the blue-gray color on Zhao Zhen's face seemed to fade a little, Zou Tong took the opportunity to feed the emperor a little honey, this time it was very good, the emperor did not spit it out, perhaps he had no strength to vomit, even so, Zou Tong immediately ordered the clerk to write down the emperor's living notes in a cup of honey water.
Yinshi, Pingdan, also known as dawn, morning, day, etc., is the time when night and day alternate.
The bells and drums in the Forbidden City were loud, and then the dark palace became brightly lit, countless eunuchs and palace maids roamed the palace, the palace door was wide open, and the messengers carrying white flags scattered around the city of Tokyo with their horses in despair.
Pang Ji was in tears, holding a long sword in his hand and sitting in front of the Daqing Palace, his official robe was neat, with a heavy evil aura, standing behind him was Zhao Yannian, and hundreds of new soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, each of whom was fully armed, holding a long knife in his hand, carrying a crossbow bow, and he was in a state of imminent battle.
"Is the prince back?" Pang Ji wiped a handful of old tears and asked Zhao Yannian.
"I already know, I am rushing back from the Yun family, Ge is leading the Yun family to be the heart, and the new army led by Zhao Ting is outside and is rushing over."
"How long can Your Majesty support it?"
"The imperial doctor said that the old ginseng continues his life, and it is all in heaven!"
"Pass on my military order, the whole city of Bianliang City in Tokyo will be under martial law, and the ban will not be lifted until the sun rises in the east. During the period, if there is a person who colludes with each other, a person who informs the news, or a person who plots against him, the robber will be killed while the fire is burning! ”
"Whoa!"
Zhao Xu cried and ran wildly holding the horse's neck, Ge Qiuyan was dressed in armor, holding a spear in his hand, and tightly guarding the left and right, Zhao Ting wanted to get close to Zhao Xu several times, but was forced back by Ge Qiuyan with a spear.
Zhao Xu's safety determines the safety of the Yun family, at this time, she doesn't believe anyone, unless Zhao Xu is safely sent back to the palace and handed over to Pang Ji, she will breathe a sigh of relief, this is Lu Qingqing's strict order before coming.
The dragon bell and phoenix drums have not stopped until now, and it seems that they will not stop until they are one hundred and eight times.
The streets were full of soldiers, ten steps, one sentry, five steps and one post, the military shed in the outer city of the palace, and the horse-faced female wall were also covered with sergeants, and even the newly cast artillery had been opened and pointed out of the city.
Countless officials either drove the ox cart fast, or simply rode on horses to the imperial city, the people hid in the windows and looked out secretly, and some scoundrels who wanted to hear some news were pressed to the ground by the soldiers as soon as they left the house, and they were beheaded on the spot without asking.
There is a curfew in the literal sense of the word.
Han Qi didn't understand that the dragon bell and phoenix drum had been ringing more than ninety times, why didn't the soul-attracting bell of Xiangguo Temple ring? Since the emperor has already mastered Bintian, why didn't he light the beacon fire to inform the border fortress, and why didn't he send envoys to the four directions to pacify the subjects?
Could it be that the emperor is still alive?
Ge Qiuyan's gun was holding the token of the Yun family, and it was also a token of the Yun family's entry and exit from the palace, and along the way, he brutally squeezed aside those officials who were not very good at riding horses, and the carriage blocking the road was also pushed aside by the fierce Yun family generals and the new army under Zhao Ting, leaving the middle road for Zhao Xu to run.
The distance between the Yun family and the palace is not far, and the kung fu of the tea has already reached the Xuanwu Gate, Zhao Xu didn't have time to dismount at all, he whipped his mount fiercely, and directly broke into the Xuanwu Gate that had just opened the gate, Ge Qiuyan Zhao Ting followed closely behind, and no one paid any attention to the etiquette at this time.
The old emperor is in danger, and the crown prince should appear in the palace as soon as possible, living in the Yun family, even closer to the palace than living in the East Palace.
The three fast horses arrived at the Daqing Hall in an instant, Zhao Ting jumped off the galloping war horse, and after rolling on the ground, he tightly pulled the reins of Zhao Xu's war horse, Zhao Xu took advantage of the situation to jump off the war horse, staggered two steps and stood firmly, and then said urgently: "Taifu, is my father the emperor safe?" ”
Pang Ji, who came up, supported Zhao Xu and said in a low voice: "At three o'clock in the ugly hour, Your Majesty woke up, his face was ruddy as in the past, and after entering a bowl of rice porridge, he suddenly spoke up, saying that his limit had come, and ordered Zou Tong to summon the prince, the important minister, to make a will."
The old minister was near the left, and he took over the imperial city, and at the same time ordered martial law in the nine cities, and he was not allowed to walk in the city at will without an order.
Your Highness, hurry up and enter the Daqing Palace, Your Majesty's dragon couch has been placed here. ”
Zhao Xu didn't have time to tidy up the loose armor without saying a word, so he stepped into the Daqing Palace.
Ge Qiuyan arched his hand and said: "Taifu testifies that the Yun family has sent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince safely to the Daqing Palace, and the concubine will go home to prepare to pray for His Majesty." (To be continued)
