King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Faced with this situation, everyone seemed a little nervous, especially Song Hai. The stone in his hand was like a bomb that could explode at any time.

"Isn't this the stone I saw at the entrance to Taihe?"

Zhu Youjian disagreed.

Wang Chengen responded and said, "That's right, Your Majesty. This is the stone in the tiger's body."

The reason why Zhu Youjian remained calm was because he wanted to buy more time so that these students would have more time to think.

At this moment, all the jailers lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.

Chen Fan finally lost his patience and let go of his hand. The stone ball fell from above Song Hai's head and landed right on Song Hai's head without making any sound.

Falling from such a high place shouldn't be too painful, but it is very scary.

It didn't make any sound, it was a low sound, if used to hit a person's head, that's the hardness of the rock and the skull.

A stone fell to the ground with a loud noise.

Song Hai held his head, he felt a piercing pain!

He was already frightened to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat, and now he felt dizzy and stars were popping out of his eyes.

But at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to Song Hai's mind.

Ignoring everyone's worried looks and shocked expressions, he picked up the stone.

Up, up, down, up, up, down.

Li Jun seemed to be thinking about something, while Ye Yunfei looked confused.

Zhu Youjian stood down from Song Hai's position. He saw where the two men threw the stones and was delighted. It seemed that this guy had already thought it through.

Everyone thought he was crazy.

"Song Hai, what's wrong with you? Are you crazy?"

"Your Majesty? Professor, could Song Hai have been beaten crazy? Do you want to send him to see a doctor?"

The same is true for other instructors.

The Secretary-General came over and walked around Song Hai as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Hey, are you okay? How are you?"

"Why do you write nonsense when you are in class?"

The Secretary General was confused and didn't know why the student became like this.

Li Jun carefully looked at a locust tree next to him.

The autumn wind blew, causing the leaves on the trees to fall down with a rustling sound.

Li Jun picked up a leaf and looked at it carefully. What was this thing? There was actually one that belonged to Li Jun.

Li Jun's aura suddenly changed. Everyone saw Li Jun's expression and thought he was going to recite a poem. Unexpectedly, Li Jun was so happy, just like Fan Jin who passed the imperial examination. He said excitedly:

"Your Majesty! I understand, sir!"

Song Hai suddenly released his spiritual thoughts, ignored the Inspector of the Imperial College, and walked towards Zhu Youjian.

"I think so too."

Zhu You winked at Song Hai, who said, "Your Highness, I found that if you throw this stone, the bead will fall to the ground!"

"I still remember that no matter how much force you used, you would fall to the ground. I think there must be something controlling this."

Zhu Youjian nodded. It was not in vain that we taught. It was not in vain that we taught. It was not in vain that we taught.

Song Hai has initially grasped the edge of gravity, but it will take some time to find it.

With a flash of his eyes, Zhu Youjian set his gaze on Li Jun. He wanted Li Jun to go further.

Li Jun thought about it and sorted out his words: "Yes, yes, Your Highness."

Zhu Youjian had been closing his eyes to rest, trying to listen to what these people were saying, but after a long time, he heard nothing.

After waiting for a long time, Li Jun didn't speak.

"Gone?" Zhu Youjian widened his eyes and stared at Li Jun, his eyes full of disbelief.

Li Jun was confused, "It's gone!"

"Is it gone?" He couldn't believe his ears.

"No more!" Chen Zhao said helplessly. Li Jun thought for a moment and said, "I think I found something."

"Speak!" Regnar was stunned.

"Your Majesty, I saw a leaf fall to the ground, it was so light and nothing happened. What kind of light skill is this? I think there is nothing better than this!"

Is this over?

It seems that Li Jun is not a person with talent for scientific research.

Zhu Youjian didn't know what to say, so he could only shake his head and sigh. It seemed that his expectations were dashed.

Turning around, Zhu Youjian asked, "So, you also know light body kung fu? You also know martial arts?"

Li Jun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I know martial arts. I have loved reading military books since I was a child. My idol is Yue Fei. My ambition is no longer in the Imperial College or the court. I think a real man should give up literature and follow martial arts to contribute to the Ming Dynasty!"

A passionate speech!

What a genius!
But if we go any further, we're completely off topic; this isn't his goal at all!

Zhu Youjian waved his hand, "Okay! I understand, you can be of great use to me!"

What the Ming Dynasty lacks the least is civil servants. If Li Jun can really become a qualified general, then the future of the Ming Dynasty will become even stronger!
If he really had the abilities of Yue Fei and Huo Huo, would the Ming Dynasty still need a small Later Jin and a Li Zicheng to deal with the Jin Kingdom?

Zhu Youjian turned around and looked at Song Hai. Zhu Youjian asked Li Jun a question, while Song Hai looked at the leaves, the sun, and the clouds in the sky.

Suddenly, as if he had gone mad, he stood up abruptly: "Got it! That's it!"

"Haha! I see! I see!"

His excitement stunned everyone.

How is this going?

Zhu Youjian's heart was full of hope. After all, Song Hai was a talented person. If he was given some inspiration, he would gain something.

Song Hai walked around frantically, finally suppressing the excitement in his heart:
"All power? This is the law of the universe!"

The power of all living things? Everyone was even more confused. How powerful is this!

"Everything has a force, and this force should be related to the size and volume of the matter! Our earth is very strong, and this force is what makes our leaves fall and what we throw into the sky fall! It was blasted by the stone!"

Zhu Youjian smiled slightly, thinking that this boy was really a talent and his words had played a role.

However, what about the 'Power of All Things'? Now that it has been discovered, we should pay tribute to the original author.

"Smart! You are indeed a talented student. How about I change your name to Gravity? Gravity is the gravity at the center of the earth! Doesn't it sound nice?"

"No, no, it was all the emperor's idea. I'm sure the emperor knows it very well."

Song Hai was delighted and looked at Zhu Youjian with admiration.

It is impossible that Zhu Youjian does not know this skill, but he is a junior after all.

In fact, Song Hai did not know that this law was not invented by Zhu Youjian, but was invented as early as 1687 by an English youth named Newton.

The class ended here. Zhu Youjian felt a little thirsty, so Wang Chengen quickly asked someone to bring him a cup of tea.

All the invigilators left and went home during lunch time.

Wang Chengen prepared a specially made wooden chair with a dragon carving on it for Zhu Youjian, but Zhu Youjian did not sit down. Instead, he leaned against a big locust tree and enjoyed the cool breeze.

very good!
"Your Highness, what are you doing? This is all nonsense!"

Guo Mingling was very proud. He knew that what he said were all good words and he just wanted Zhu Youjian to understand them.

Zhu Youjian asked: "What?"...

"Your Highness, what is this gravity you're talking about?" Guo Mingling asked. It would be better to teach them some poetry and books, at least to let them know the way of the saints.

Zhu Youjian smiled and said, "Why can't gravity work?

The discovery of the law of gravity was the most significant achievement of natural science in the 17th century. It combined the laws of motion of matter on earth with the laws of motion of celestial bodies, and had a profound impact on later physical and astronomical research.

All of this was in Zhu Youjian's mind, but it was very difficult to explain it in detail to Guo Mingling.

At this moment, a young eunuch rushed in: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Chen Zhibao is here to visit!"

Could it be Chen Zhibao?

Is this the outspoken Chen Zhibao?

"Call him over!" Zhu Youjian waved his hand, looking excited. He thought he was going to find Song Yingxing.

This is a very important person!

To be honest, Zhu Youjian felt that he was about to see his idol.

Song Yingxing was a famous scientist in the Ming Dynasty. He devoted his life to scientific research in farming, handicrafts and other fields, and left behind a large number of scientific and technological documents for future generations.

If people in the Ming Dynasty had not been more conservative and looked down upon all those fancy things, Song Yingxing's success would have been more than that.

It is such a great fortune to be able to meet Song Yingxing!

Zhu Youjian counted silently in his mind, wondering whether this noble person would appear at the corner of Taihe Gate.

Sure enough, just as he counted to "eight", Song Yingxing arrived. Chen Zhibao took Song Yingxing inside.

Although Song Yingxing is old and has a few gray hairs on his temples, he looks very good and walks steadily!
Zhu Youjian watched very carefully. Even from a distance, he found that Song Yingxing's hands were covered with calluses, obviously from working in the fields for many years and dealing with some boring mechanical equipment.

Zhu Youjian's heart moved and he found this matter very interesting.

In my previous life, the Ming Dynasty did not pay attention to Song Yingxing, did not pay attention to him, so I will never repeat the same mistake.

At this time, Chen Zhibao was full of doubts. Why did Zhu Youcha ask him to meet Song Yingxing? When he came to Song Yingxing, he was bare-legged and modifying a strange tool for delivering water.

He is just a reader who loves machinery, a weirdo.

He was born into a poor family and took part in the imperial examination once, but failed twice during the Tianqi and Chongzhen periods, so he gave up the idea of ​​taking the examination.

Song Yingxing also looked at Zhu Youjian with a skeptical look on his face. He never expected that he would actually be received by the emperor.

"Your Majesty! I, Song Yingxing, pay my respects to His Majesty!"

Just as he was about to kneel down, Zhu Youjian picked up Song Yingxing and said with some respect: "No! You are Mr. Song, you are a master!"

Zhu Youjian then realized that his current appearance was a bit rude, and he changed his tone and said, "You can't kneel down. You are the apple of my eye and a pillar of my Ming Dynasty!"

Song Yingxing bowed and said, "Your Highness, you are too kind. I cannot accept it! I am just an ordinary citizen. How can I be worthy of the talent of the Ming Dynasty!"

Guo Mingling also thought so. The Inspector was even more confused. He had met this Song Yingxing before. He had participated in several imperial examinations last year, but failed every time!

"Why not!" Zhu Youjian exclaimed, "I know you are interested in astronomy and geography. I know that you are proficient in astronomy, which is naturally what I want. Why can't you become a genius of the Ming Dynasty?"

Song Yingxing was shocked. He was surprised to receive the emperor's praise, which obviously meant that he was appreciated by the emperor. However, he still couldn't understand it.

"Your Majesty? This is too much! I am only interested in astronomy and geography, I don't have any special skills!"

"I have a question for you! Have you planned to publish a book called "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" recently?" Zhu Youjian shut Song Yingxing up with just one sentence.

"'The Exploitation of the Works of Nature'?" Song Yingxing was even more confused. Your Majesty, didn't I say that I don't want to publish any books now?"

Zhu Youjian counted on his fingers and found out that Song Yingxing wrote the Ming Dynasty's scientific masterpiece "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" in 1637, and this was just the beginning, with a difference of nearly ten years.

Zhu Youjian slapped himself on the head, feeling a little embarrassed. He knew too little about history. They could only roughly understand the direction of historical development, but not the details.

Fortunately, he is a cultivator who has practiced the "Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang Art" and can predict what will happen in the future. It's like God closes a door for you and opens a new window for you, allowing you to see hope.

"Your Majesty?" An Fei was stunned and asked. Song Yingxing stood aside. Although he didn't understand what Zhu Youjian meant by "creature", he didn't know how to start when he saw Zhu Youjian's confused look.

Zhu Youjian nodded and said, "Oh, oh, oh, I mean, can you write a scientific work called "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature"? "

Ah!
In Song Yingxing's view, these practical instruments, laws, and science were the things he was most interested in. If the Emperor asked him to publish one, he naturally would not object.

Song Yingxing felt heavy in his heart when he heard this. He bowed and said, "I am willing!"

Zhu Youjian was very happy! Bang! "Okay! After thinking about it, I have an important matter to discuss with you!"

Song Yingxing stretched his head and asked curiously, "What is the emperor's plan?"

Zhu Youjian thought about it and had an idea in his mind.

The technological leap forward of the Ming Empire was what Zhu Youjian had always dreamed of.

Anyone who has received nine years of compulsory education in school will understand that technological advancement is the most critical link in the entire society.

However, if we want to improve the quality of science and technology, technology alone is not enough. The development of society always coincides with the principle of the wooden barrel.

The social development of an individual must involve the common development of politics, ideology, science and technology, economy and other fields.

Therefore, what we need to do is to enlighten the people and let them accept new ideas, step by step.

First of all, he has to research new technologies. After all, Zhu Tan is not a scientist or a superhero, and his system is not a scientific system that can allow him to have complete control over everything.

Zhu Tan knew very well that he was just a person who lit a candle, that is, a person who lit a candle for the Ming Empire. Song Yingxing, Li Jun, Ye Yunfei, and Song Hai were all the people with the fastest technological progress in the Ming Empire.

When everyone heard Zhu Youjian talking about the revitalization of Ming Dynasty's science and technology, they were shocked.

"What are you talking about?" Guo Mingling felt like his ears were about to be deafened. Was this a joke?
Zhu Youjian said: "Da Ming Technology Take-off Project!"

Song Yingxing seemed to understand something and asked excitedly, "What do you mean?"

Zhu Youjian raised the corner of his lips and said, "I want to make it very clear. I want you to take the lead and help me get this done. Is that okay?"

Song Yingxing clasped his fists and said, "Yes!"

Guo Mingling hesitated, not knowing how to start. Zhu Youjian was talking about national affairs, not what he wanted to do.

……

At this time, in the Ming Dynasty, in the Ministry of Works, Li Chungang looked very relaxed.

Zhou Yanru was also from the Ministry of Industry. He said, "Mr. Li, you have been very free and easy these days!"

Li Chungang picked up the wine glass, made a gesture of invitation to Zhou Yanru, and asked, "Senior, what do you want?"

"Where did the order come from? Where is the order? I'm confused. If everyone in the Ming Dynasty is like you, what will happen to the Ming Dynasty?"

Li Chungang sneered and said, "Even Zhu Youjian has been overthrown? You won't let me just let it go?"

"He's training, and I'm drinking! The king's new love and I are one and the same!"

Zhou Yanru said: "You mean, there are bad people at the top and bad people below?" Zhou Yanru was not surprised by this. Most ministers in the Ming Dynasty did this, and many of them were lazy.

Li Chungang smiled slightly: "When did I say that?" As he spoke, he drank a glass of beer, then cut the orange on the fruit plate into small pieces and stuffed them into his mouth, feeling very happy.

"As the Minister of Industry, aren't you worried that the emperor will blame you? Do you really think the Wanggongchang case is over?"

"Wang Gongchang, who are you?" Li Chungang's face showed horror. Zhou Yanru's words instantly brought him back to his senses. Wang Gongchang was affiliated to the Ministry of Industry and was an important factory.

"Isn't that the end of it? Liu Hu has been captured, and even Wei Zhongxian is implicated. What does it have to do with me?" Li Chungang tried his best to calm himself.

His calm expression eased the uneasiness in his heart a little.

Zhou Yanru smiled: "Mr. Li, the Wanggongchang case has nothing to do with you. Mr. Li should be very clear about this!"

Li Chungang became even more nervous. He had sobered up from his recent drunkenness.

"Wait, Lord Zhou, what do you mean by that?"

Zhou Yanru still smiled: "Teacher, I advise you, as an official in the Ming Dynasty, don't do this kind of thing, do what you should do!"

Hehe! Li Chungang sneered: "Stop talking, we are all in the same boat now. If anything happens to me, you must protect me, otherwise, we are in the same boat!"

Zhou Yanru showed a look of surprise, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. A mere Shangshu wanted to threaten him?
He didn't say anything, but stood up quietly, walked to the door, and saw the drunken officer.

"Minister Li, why is the minister in your mansion locked up?"

Lord Shangshu?

Li Chungang came to his senses and found that he was waiting outside. He hurried over and patted Wang Mian on the body a few times. The minister shook his head and said casually:

"Minister, His Majesty asked you to come to the Imperial College?"

"What?" Li Chungang was stunned. "How could this happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Wang Mian stammered, "Master, Wang Chengen just sent a letter."

As he was talking, the servant of the Ministry of Works fell into a deep sleep, obviously he was very drunk.

Zhou Yanru smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Li, Mr. Wang came to see you this morning. You were not there at that time, so he handed the matter over to Wang Mian. But you are also a waste. You were drunk and don't remember anything!"

After a pause, Zhou Yanru emphasized his voice: "Perhaps, this is what is called 'there are problems above and below'!"

I already said it this morning. It’s already noon. What else could be going on?

He had no time to answer or think. He forced himself to wake up and stumbled towards the Imperial College.

……

Zhu Youjian suddenly asked, "Has Lord Si arrived?"

Wang Chengen said quickly: "Your Majesty, I sent someone to invite the Minister of Works this morning! Now——"

"In that case, there is no need for him to appear here!" Zhu Youjian shouted, but it was Li Chungang's voice coming from a distance.

"Your Majesty! Spare my life! I am late!"

Before setting off in the morning, Zhu Youjian asked Wang Chengen to instruct the Minister of Works to be on standby to meet him at the Imperial College!
until now.

"What? Are you going to work on a construction site?

Zhu Youjian walked up to Li Chungang and found that his face was a little red and his hands and feet were a little out of control.

Li Chungang immediately thought of a good explanation. Since Zhu Youjian said so, he had a good excuse.

Li Chungang agreed with Zhu Youjian's proposal.

"Nonsense! Do you think I'm a fool?"

Zhu Youjian was furious. If it were any other time, he might have believed it, but how could a small yamen runner know what he had done?
Moreover, he smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

"Did you drink too much?"

"Yes! But please trust me, Your Majesty, I am really drunk!"

"Not only that, you actually dared to tell me that I was pretending?"

Every word he said was like a sharp sword, piercing Li Chungang's body.

That's not right. How did the emperor know that he was drunk? Judging from the smell of alcohol coming from him, how could he say bad things about him behind his back?

I really can't understand it. What is going on? (End of this chapter)
