Chapter 033: Microscope
Hua Gao paused his footsteps and watched Xue Shu leave unwillingly, feeling even worse, he took a few steps forward, and rushed straight into a strange guard in front of the Ming Heart Hall who probably didn't know his identity and wanted to stop him.
Zhao Xu and Qiao An also followed and broke in.
When you enter the door, the first thing you feel is ......
It's so bright!
Compared to the twilight outside, there are too many candles, and the inside feels like daytime.
didn't have time to pay attention to these, Hua Gao found a certain little ancestor at a glance.
Zhu Yuan was standing at a long wood-colored table that he liked to put everywhere these days, looking down at a small telescope-like instrument, and in the other hand he was still holding a charcoal pencil, drawing something.
Whew-
After confirming that Zhu Yuan was fine, Hua Gao breathed a sigh of relief, and finally looked at the others.
There were six people in the room.
There were four at the long table full of various utensils and drawings, Zhu Yuan, Dai Sanchun, Cui Shen, and a strange short man about thirty years old.
In the corner behind Zhu Yuan, there are two small eunuchs wearing curved horned black yarn and narrow leader shirts.
Well......
Well?!
Hua Gao, who was about to look away, turned around again, looked up and down carefully, and determined that they were two little eunuchs.
Eunuch......
Hua Gao didn't believe that Zhu Yuan dared to use eunuchs privately.
Well, there is only one possibility.
Isn't the lord already planning to hide some secret, even the eunuchs have been sent?
A voice came from his ear, interrupting Hua Gao's thoughts.
Zhu Yuan raised his head from the microscope, glanced at the three people who entered the door, turned to Hua Gao, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is back, can the journey go smoothly?" ”
Hua Gao hurriedly retracted his gaze and grinned: "Smooth, smooth, I also caught some miscellaneous fish," and said Seeing that Zhu Yuan was still holding a charcoal pen in his hand, he waved his hand and said: "Ming'er will talk about these things again, and I will continue to paint, and I will see for myself." ”
Zhu Yuan nodded to Zhao Xu and Qiao An again, and then turned to the two behind him: "Let the kitchen prepare, and Huada will have dinner together later." ”
He Xuan agreed, and sent the little eunuch beside him to the kitchen to explain the matter in a low voice.
Zhu Yuan lowered his head again, looked at the microscope and continued to draw.
Hua Gao waved his hand to signal Zhao Xu and Qiao An to leave, and turned to the short man in the room.
Seeing Hua Gao looking at him, the man temporarily let go of a microscope in front of him, and wanted to make a big salute, but he was inconveniently separated by the long table, so he could only hold his fists and said in a low voice: "The Gongwei Si Wenzao has seen the governor." ”
Hua Gao nodded slightly, and also knew the nature of Gong Weisi, so he didn't say much.
After Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen greeted each other again, they finally signaled to a spread on the long table in front of them: "This...... What kind of microscope is that? ”
What Cui Shen is in charge of the Tai Hospital Instrument Bureau has been doing, Huagao still knows.
Seeing Hua Gao asking, Dai Sanchun, who is always serious on weekdays, showed a little excitement in his expression, and said softly with a rare offer of treasure and merit: "Yes, my lord...... Adults come and see. ”
As he spoke, he gave up his position in front of him.
Hua Gao walked over, followed Dai Sanchun's signal, bent down and lowered his eyes to a microscope, and looked carefully.
In the round pale blue field of vision, Hua Gao soon saw some small insects resembling the soles of his shoes slowly wriggling, and he also noticed that the larger one seemed to be devouring something around him.
After a moment, Hua Gao looked away and looked sideways at the crystal slice beneath the microscope.
Except for a trace of blue and blue, there is nothing on it.
Then he turned to the camera again.
Originally...... Microscope...... This...... It's the ones that are invisible to the naked eye...... What's that......
Looking away again, Hua Gao simply reached out and took off the crystal sheet under the lens, and took a closer look, but there was still only a touch of blue, and without a microscope, the naked eye could not see anything at all.
Put the crystal slice back under the lens, leaned over again, and those little bugs appeared in his field of vision again.
Looking at it so intently, Hua Gao's mouth began to open slightly unconsciously.
finally understood why those people along the way before were like that.
It's like......
Suddenly, one day, everyone saw ghosts that they had never encountered before, and they were all around them, close at hand, floating around.
How can you not be surprised?
How can you not be emotional?
How can you not be shocked?
When Hua Gao took off the crystal slice again and put it in front of his eyes to try to distinguish it with the naked eye, Dai Sanchun took the initiative to speak, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, and whispered: "My lord, Hanlin said that this is paramecium, which is only one thousandth of an inch. Hanlin said to me before, 'One Flower, One World', and I can't believe it when I was reborn, but today I finally saw it with my own eyes. ”
Dai Sanchun said, remembering all the things this morning again.
Last night, Zhu Yuan said that this microscope lacks supplementary light, so it will affect the observation. Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen made a few small mirrors overnight, tried again this morning, and deliberately went outdoors with plenty of light.
Because he has failed too many times before, Dai Sanchun does not expect to succeed today. However, he did succeed in seeing the so-called 'cells' on a film of leaves.
And then it's the whole day.
Dai Sanchun saw a new and huge world.
Word spread quickly.
Not only the people around Zhu Yuan, but also up and down the county seat of Dinghai, all those who were qualified to enter the Yinghai Envoy's Mansion all heard the news and came to see the rarity, and many of them were refreshed and left in a trance.
When everyone lamented the strangeness of the microscope, Dai Sanchun understood how important today's discovery would be to the development of medicine!
Just like Zhu Yuan said, many diseases are these invisible 'bacteria', 'viruses' and other microorganisms are causing trouble, at the moment, since they can be seen, even if it is only a few, it means that in the future, we can try to prescribe more accurate medicine.
It can be said that the successful creation of the microscope is definitely a great achievement for the benefit of hundreds of millions of people.
After Hua Gao failed to try again, he finally gave up distinguishing with the naked eye, turned to Dai Sanchun, and asked, "Paramecium, is this ...... Why blue? ”
"Add blue indigo," Dai Sanchun took the crystal flake in Hua Shou's hand, put it aside, and replaced it with another crystal foil, and said: "Under the microscope, many things are transparent and colorless, and they need to be dyed to be distinguished." ”
After speaking, he lowered his head and debugged it, and then gave it to Hua Gao: "My lord, come and see, this is pine needles, compared to paramecium, you can see the cells, only a little small, Hanlin said that you need to make a higher magnification lens." ”
Hua Gao looked down again.
Discussing here, Zhu Yuan finished drawing a sketch of the structure of leek yellow cells according to the microscope image, put down the charcoal, looked at the opposite side and said: "Since you have learned how to use it, you can bring a microscope back to Jinling tomorrow, and your ancestors must want to see it for the first time."
Even though it had been a whole day, there was still disbelief in Wen Zao's expression, and when he heard Zhu Yuan say this, this Gong Wei Si Baihu immediately hugged his fists and said: "My lord, I want to leave immediately and rush to Jinling overnight." ”
Thinking about Zhao Xu and Zuo Qi, thinking about Mao Xiang, who has been promoted from the third rank to command the same knowledge, Wen Zao understands that it is easy to make meritorious contributions on this errand at the moment.
Unexpectedly, a credit was sent to the door as soon as I came.
Compared with ordinary communication, it is clear to smell and ...... under the microscope This astonishing series of discoveries was brought to the Lord a moment earlier, and his credit was even greater.
When Zhu Yuan heard this, he didn't veto it, and said with a smile: "You're not afraid of walking at night, so let's go." Well...... I still have some letters as usual, so I'll wait a moment and let them sort them out. ”
After speaking, he turned his head and instructed He Xuan.
He Xuan promised to leave in a hurry.
When He Xuan retrieved the work log of the last few days from the freehand women, he also packed a microscope here.
Sending Wen Zao away, it was already completely dark, and everyone went to the restaurant next door for dinner.
The conversation also continues to revolve around microscopy.
The microscope was successful, and Zhu Yuan was also very excited, so much so that he didn't do anything else all day today, and has been helping Dai Sanchun to improve and debug.
However, it was only a little exciting.
Zhu Yuan understands that the successful creation of a microscope is only a small step for new medicine.
There is still too long to go.
At the same time, after careful consideration today, Zhu Yuan also realized that the microscope can definitely not only be applied in medicine, but also in many other fields, which can be played in the future.
Didn't continue after dinner.
After a busy day, I ignored today's nap, and Zhu Yuan didn't have the energy to do anything else.
When Hua Gao and his party said goodbye and left, Zhu Yuan returned to the inner house, and the freehand girls immediately greeted him, and their expressions were all full of curiosity.
The girls here obviously also know about the microscope, but today all kinds of people come and go outside, and as women, a group of women of all sizes are very responsible and do not run around.
"I'll bring one tomorrow and show you the novelty."
Without waiting for the women to speak, Zhu Yuan smiled and said.
The inner house has already prepared hot water.
Zhu Yuan took a shower, came to the bedroom, got into bed, and kept today's work log as usual.
The main discussion is about microscopes.
After dictating the log, he took today's draft from Luo Shui's hand, revised it, and was about to fall asleep, when he noticed that the young lady wanted to speak and stopped, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”
Qing Niang looked at a few freehand.
Zhu Yuan smiled and motioned to the other three women: "You guys go and rest first, I'll whisper to Qingniang." ”
The three girls went out obediently.
Freehand is no different from Luoshui, but when the curtain is lifted, it is pouting.
Crippled.
Aren't you just trying to find an excuse to occupy the small bedroom outside?
Waiting for the three daughters to leave, Zhu Yuan looked at Qingniang.
Qingniang hesitated a little, and then said: "Little official, slave two younger brothers...... I heard that there will be a imperial examination this autumn? ”
Zhu Yuan understood: "Do you want them to give it a try?" ”
The young lady nodded.
Zhu Yuan suddenly changed his tone: "Dissatisfied with my arrangement? ”
Qingniang hurriedly shook her head: "No, slave...... The slave is very grateful that the little officials can take Wen Heng and them to Jiangnan, and the slave ......"
Looking at the woman who was so nervous that she couldn't speak, Zhu Yuan continued: "You just said...... Who mentioned that there is a imperial examination this autumn? ”
Qing Niang was stunned, subconsciously shook her head, and lowered her eyes weakly.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Zhu Yuan said slowly: "Being able to walk to my side is a fate." If your two younger brothers have real talents and learn and do things well, they will have no less wealth in the future. But if you want to take a shortcut from me, it's not impossible, the question depends on whether they have the ability to do that. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything that would make me look the other way yet. ”
The young lady's head hung lower, and her body began to tremble slightly.
Zhu Yuan paused for a short time, and then said: "Freehand They are very smart and know how to measure, so I don't need to say anything on weekdays." What about you, stupid woman, and you don't have any opinions, so I can only make it clear to you, and in the future, you will obediently stay in the inner house, cook food, sew clothes, and if you have children in the future, you will take the children with you, and the rest, you are not allowed to talk more, understand? ”
When the young lady heard some words, she raised her head suddenly, and nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice.
Zhu Yuan touched a pillow from the side and threw it over: "Kneel, have a long memory." ”
The young lady knelt down softly obediently, but did not use the pillow to cushion it, picked it up and patted the dust, carefully placed it on the round stool next to her, and glanced up, as if to confirm whether she had heard it wrong, and saw that her little official had already laid down, and wanted to step forward to cover him with a quilt.
Thinking that he was being punished, he didn't dare to move.
Zhu Yuan pulled up the quilt by himself, glanced at the woman not far from the bed, and suddenly smiled again: "I plan to eat a big white sheep on my birthday, what do you say?" ”
Qing Niang's eyes were puzzled: "How do the little officials want to concoct it, slave ......"
"Stupid woman," Zhu Yuan didn't wait for her to continue, grabbed a pillow and threw it over: "I've washed myself in vain these days, wait." ”
Qingniang just carefully picked up the pillow again to put it next to her, and suddenly understood, her body trembled again, but this time because of excitement, her face was instantly red, and when she looked over, her voice called softly: "Little official......"
Zhu Yuan ignored it, just muttered with emotion: "Family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs." ”
Either way.
After all, this is not an era where you can go it alone.
