Chapter 222: Fire Tree Silver Flower Never Sleeps

Zhu Di stood on top of His Majesty Dan, very satisfied with the stunned eyes of the princes and ministers, they all held their heads high, looking at the searchlights hanging on the roof, the snow-bright lights illuminated every corner of the entire hall, and also illuminated the expressions on everyone's faces wonderfully.

It is not that everyone is familiar with the light brought by the fire of a thousand years, the light is blazing white, and the human eyes cannot look at it for a long time, and the fire does not jump, so that people seem to see the sun hanging in the sky during the day.

"Your Highness, where did this light come from?"

When Zhu Gaoxian heard someone ask, he smiled, "This...... It's very profound, and you may not understand it, but this belongs to the realm of science, and it is difficult to explain clearly without any foundation. ”

"This ...... Fourth brother, the second brother's house, otherwise, you can also install this thing for the second brother, it is convenient for the second brother to read at night! Zhu Gaoxu was so happy that he was about to jump up, the good thing that his fourth brother made was the first to get the moon near the water, and he also wanted to make one.

Many people envy and want, but they dare not speak, do you dare to compare with the emperor?

But Zhu Gaochu opened his mouth, if he got it, they would have hope in the future, and everyone looked at Zhu Gaoxu, and their eyes were full of fiery expectations.

Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile, "Second brother, if we are still in Beijing at this time, if you don't mention this request, my brother and I will also take the initiative to help all the brothers in their houses to pull wires and connect to electricity. It can be used for heating, cooling, in the summer, with air conditioning, it can be cooled, and it can also be used for cooking, washing clothes...... In short, anything. ”

So good!

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened, he was so hungry that he was about to drool, and said, "The fourth brother ......"

Zhu Gaoxian didn't wait for him to make repeated requests, and said, "But second brother, this electricity is generated by burning coal, there is no coal in our south, and the coal used now is transported by ship from Beijing, barely enough for the palace, and the brothers want it, but it's difficult!" ”

How so?

Xia Yuanji was anxious when he heard this, this electricity has so many effects, it is obvious that His Royal Highness wants to make a machine that can use electricity for heating, cooling, cooking, and washing clothes, he just needs to think about it, he can imagine how much industrial tax he can collect.

Coal is used to generate electricity, so wouldn't it be nice to bring coal from the north?

"Your Highness, aren't you going to build a railway? In the future, won't this coal be transported by rail? ”

Zhu Di is not stupid, he already understands how his son's plan to move the capital will be promoted, he doesn't mention it, only smiles and waves, "Go, I can't wait to see the model railway made by His Royal Highness!" ”

Zhu Di was at present, Zhu Gaoxian followed, the rest of the princes followed, and the princes and ministers followed behind, rushing towards the door.

This is a model train.

On the table, the rails were already installed and covered with a glass cover, and on the rails, two carriages were dragging behind the front of the train, lying quietly on the tracks.

Zhu Gaoxian pointed to a red button on the table and said, "Dad, start the train!" ”

Zhu Di walked over, at this moment, he was as proud as if he had ascended the throne that day, and solemnly pressed the red button, only to see that the train that was originally not moving suddenly moved and began to circle along the tracks.

This......

Everyone couldn't restrain the shock in their hearts at this moment, and even ignored the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and gathered around, watching intently as the train ran along the tracks.

Zhu Di was also shocked, he pointed to the empty carriage behind him, "Can goods be transported here?" ”

"It's not just cargo, it's also about people!" Zhu Gaoxian said, "Dad, you see, the carriage behind here can be connected a lot, and right now, we may have to use coal as power, and it may only be a thousand miles a day." When our Daming's electricity develops, in the future, the speed can be increased very quickly by erecting wires along the rails, and it will not be a problem to travel thousands of miles a day. ”

Hiss!

Everyone gasped, the legendary thousand miles in one day can be realized, and the Fourth Highness is actually too slow!

"Your Highness, this is a good thing!" Ru Yu, who has always been steady, couldn't hold her breath anymore and said, "Your Highness, if you travel thousands of miles in a day, it will be too easy for this train to run through the north and the south in the future." ”

"yes!" Zhu Gaoxian looked at Xia Yuanji with a smile, "Old Xia, you also think this is a good thing, right?" ”

"Yes, good stuff, good stuff!" Xia Yuanji pointed to the train, "This, this, why does it keep running on its own?" ”

"That's what electricity is driving!" Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile, "Lao Xia, if you want this king to electrify you in the south, you have to build the railway, now you have to make a choice on behalf of the big guy, whether to repair this railway or not?" ”

What are you kidding, as long as you are not stupid, you can see that this railway is a good thing!

What does the Fourth Highness mean by this? Many people don't know why, they all look at Xia Yuanji nervously, as long as Xia Yuanji dares to say that he doesn't cultivate, today, he is afraid that he will be killed by these eye knives.

Xia Yuanji looked at this, looked at that, and then looked at Zhu Gaoxian, and stepped forward resignedly, "Your Highness, as long as the minister is not a traitor, he can't say that this railway will not be repaired, not only for electricity, but also for the future of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"If you want to smash the pot and sell iron, you have to tighten your belt, you can strangle yourself, I won't strangle it." Zhu Gaoxian glanced at Xia Yuanji with disdain, what kind of person, he knew what he meant, but he still avoided it.

However, Zhu Gaoxian is not afraid, sooner or later, Xia Yuanji will agree.

Zhu Di also knew that some things were in a hurry, things had come to this point, and Xia Yuanji couldn't hold on for long, he nodded as a household secretary, and everything else was easy to say.

"Fourth, what about the lantern you made? It's not early, let's take a look, let's go back to wash and sleep! ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Gaoxian nodded to the students of the Ming Imperial Academy who were guarding not far away, and someone pulled down the gate knife, only to see that the glazed roof above the palace, the palace walls on both sides, and the gatehouse in the distance were shining like stars.

Fire trees and silver flowers never sleep, but that's it!

The entire palace, whether you look at it up close or far away, is like the legendary Yaochi fairyland, at this moment, the eyes of the entire Ying Tianfu subjects are overwhelmed, and for a while, they thought that the heavenly palace had descended on the earth.

Zhu Di was also stunned, looked around, turned his head to look at the crest beast on the roof of Fengtian Temple, the gorgeous lights were turned on and off, the golden glazed tiles reflected the falling tubes, and the sky was intertwined into a colorful glow, like a dream.

A visual feast made the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty look stupid.

Zhu Gaoxian stood beside his father and said in a low voice, "Dad, look good, go back and ask the students of the academy to help you teach the people in the palace, every time you go to congratulate, take them out and use them, first of all, and when your son has almost trained people, help your father make a better light show." ”
