Chapter 347: The Warship
Xian Yao's movements are not small this year, as long as he is not blind, he can see it.
After receiving a letter from Xianyao's "remnants of King Qi's old department", the Queen Mother felt that the dead King Qi had not done things so hatefully before.
The people in the court were also relieved when they knew about this.
The sense of oppression that King Wei gave them was too strong.
Fortunately, the king of Qi still has some horses, otherwise, they dare not imagine what kind of confrontation would be after the king of Wei unified the entire northern area and held the economic state Xuanzhou.
But if you think about it carefully, whether Xianyao's poor place belongs to the King of Wei or not doesn't seem to be that important to the other party, right?
"As long as we can contain one or two, disgusting the other party is also excellent for us."
The confrontation with the west has consumed a lot of the imperial court's attention.
After losing the battle with King Wei last year, King An laughed off his big teeth at the border, and he couldn't wait to publicize every day to shake their military hearts!
But compared to King An, who has not invaded much so far, but only consolidated his territory neatly, and fought with them at the "border", King Wei is really moving.
Now that Xuanzhou has fallen into the hands of the King of Wei, the King of Wei seems to be eyeing other states in the east.
The Queen Mother was angry when she thought of this.
"Xianyao Prefecture is just a little boundary. If the imperial court doesn't support it anymore, you let them block the Eastern Tainan Expedition with the idea of avenging the King of Qi? ”
The Empress Dowager convened some old ministers of the court and China to discuss the matter.
If Xianyao was expected to completely delay the pace of Dongfang Tainan's expedition, everyone was not so optimistic as they thought.
But Xianyao's place, a little bit of Dongfang Tai's mind is also very gratifying to the imperial court.
Xian Yao's existence is to disgust Dongfang Tai, and even when the time comes, he can directly frame the death of King Qi that Dongfang Tai planned it to stink the other party's reputation.
Therefore, the imperial court has to help this group of people condemn it, and quietly support it behind their backs......
Many ministers also agree with this idea, but-
"This Xianyao is full of King Wei's forces on three sides, and we have nowhere to start if we want to support it?"
Someone mentioned the geographical problem of Xianyao, and their court wanted to cross the King of Wei, difficult!
But if you don't support it, you can see from the taxes that Xianyao paid for years before that the place is also ridiculously poor.
"Actually—it's not impossible. If we go north from the sea through the ports of Zhuzhou and Sangzizhou, we can also reach Xianyao.
Just right, I took the opportunity to knock on the governors and captains of the two states of Xiang and Zhuzhou.
Some time ago, the governor of Sangzi Prefecture no longer submitted a symphony to Jingli, but they always confronted Xuanzhou.
If possible, send someone to investigate the situation in Sangzi Prefecture. ”
Someone made such a suggestion, and the rest of the people looked strange.
Everyone raised their eyes and glanced at the queen mother, and when they saw that the queen mother was satisfied, the room became quieter and quieter for a while.
"I don't know if any of you Aiqing wants to go for the mourning family?"
Sure enough, as soon as the Queen Mother spoke, even the minister who had just proposed it suddenly became dumbfounded.
This is the so-called dare to say, dare not do.
Some people talk with their eyes open, shake their heads with their eyes closed, and refuse,
Looking at the silence below, the Queen Mother's gaze at everyone became colder......
·
Mei Berry didn't know that the people of the imperial court were about to appear in front of her eyes through a rather magical gesture, and she was now surprised by the big surprise that the Yu family had brought her.
"This—This is ......"
Plum Berry listened to the model ship made of steel in front of her in disbelief.
"You want to build a ship made of metal?"
Although he knew that the ships in the later generations were all made of metal, but looking at Yu Zhao to show him this model floating on the water, Mei Berry only felt that this character gave it - it was too worthwhile!
"Yes, but if the townsman hopes that the sea ship can be put into use as soon as possible, this iron ship can't be counted on."
This is just a model they made, if it is enlarged equally, the amount of fine iron required is unknown, and even the port will have to rebuild this steel ship deeper and larger in the future.
"I understand this, anyway, you have to bother with those warships and sea ships in the coastal waters, and how many models do you have of this ship? I'll have to take it back and talk to someone. ”
Mei Berry understands buoyancy and density, but Xie Changchen and some of his staff may not understand it.
If you directly tell people to build an iron ship, it is estimated that everyone will have to say that they are daydreaming.
"Oh, you've got to get someone to make me one that can be disassembled, like a ...... below deck."
Plum Berry thought that she still had to redo the model and explain it from the inside.
Who knew that Yu Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he was surprised: "It turns out that the townsman also knows this!" I'll tell you, ah, here'......"
So, when Mei Berry came back with Yongyuan in the afternoon, Yin Jiu and the others saw that Yongyuan's big eyes were about to turn into mosquito coils.
Although the plum berries are not so blindfolded, they also look very depressed.
Seeing this, Tian Qi eagerly gave the plum berry a pulse, and finally even Tian Qi's big round and harmless eyes were full of confusion.
"Why are you so sleepy?"
Hearing Tian Qi's words, Mei Berry took the green tea brought by Tian Ya, and was awakened by the hot water vapor of the new tea that sprouted in Sangzi Prefecture this year's spring bud sent by Yan Qing a few days ago, and then said: "Uncle Xiaoqi, if you memorize the "Book of Medicine" for an afternoon, it will be like this. ”
"No, I'm not sleepy. I was also carrying it until you came back. ”
Plum berry: "......"
"Sister Mei Berry is right, if you memorize all the four books and five classics all day, it's like this."
Yongyuan immediately understood Mei Berry's example, slowly moved her eyes, and tried to come back to her senses and said another example that was appropriate for herself.
"Didn't you go to the shipyard?"
Tian Qi was confused by what the two said, he turned his head to look at Tianya, who immediately shook her head, saying that although she went, she didn't understand.
She is not like Yongyuan, who can't listen hard.
She simply didn't understand it, so she didn't listen, and gave them a few chats there by the way.
"yes, go to the shipyard. For the first time, I saw iron floating on water. ”
Yu Zhao made a model of a small iron boat, and Yongyuan still can't understand it.
Later, she watched Mei Berry and the other party say something like a book of heaven, and then the two of them didn't know where to fish out a bunch of things and fished them out of the water.
Finally, write and draw on the paper.
Looking at the paper again, it was all _(:3"∠)_ that she couldn't read.
After Yongyuan said this, she turned her head to look at Meiberry, expecting Meiberry to solve her puzzles, and the others all looked at Meiberry when they heard about such magical things, which made Meiberry feel embarrassed.
"You ...... Really want to know? ”
Mei Berry glanced at Yin Jiu and Jia Jiu, and saw that everyone nodded.
So, Mei Berry, who was still embarrassed just now, showed a very dark smile and said, "Okay, then today I will teach you a lesson about the density and buoyancy of matter." (End of chapter)
