Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 305: After getting a million gold, one wants ten thousand gold; after becoming an emperor, one wants to become an immortal

Today, King Li Yuanji had to work as a supervisor, and he finally left some time for Xia Lin. He came to the glass workshop in his carriage.

Didn't I promise Doctor Sun that I would make him a microscope? I've already prepared the structural diagram for the factory director, and he's here today to inspect the results.

In fact, this thing is neither difficult nor simple. The difficulty lies in the extremely high requirements for the purity of the glass, which is an almost unsolvable problem in this era. But don’t we have Xia Lin? So the biggest chasm has become a smooth road.

As for the structure, this thing is not complicated. Any tomb mechanism or the like is much more complicated than it. The craftsmen in the Huaxia region are really top-notch. They only took half a month to make the prototype of this thing.

But in order to meet Xia Lin's requirements, they made repeated modifications. With more than a month left, they were finally able to modify the equipment to meet Xia Lin's requirements.

Xia Lin tested it and found that the focal length could indeed be adjusted by turning the knob. By operating step by step according to the instruction manual, he was able to see things that were normally invisible to the naked eye through the principle of optical magnification.

"Okay, okay, all the people involved in research and development will receive an additional three months of bonuses."

After Xia Lin accepted the inspection, he packed the items into a box and patted his chest and said, "The outstanding employees at the end of the year will be selected from these people."

The people in the R&D workshop cheered, and Xia Lin got on the carriage carrying the box. Before leaving, he said to the director of the glass factory, "You guys should also develop the telescope quickly. That doesn't need to be so precise. Also, we will select a group of people to set up a new precision instrument factory. I'll leave it to you. Just write the order and I'll approve it."

"Thank you, Lord Xia, for your appreciation!"

When the only microscope in the world was brought to the medical school, it immediately attracted a large crowd of onlookers. From Sun Simiao to the new doctors who were still training, everyone gathered around this thing and looked at it.

This was probably the first time that humans observed the microscopic world. No one had expected that there would be so many wriggling lives in the seemingly pure well water, nor had they expected that there would be worms in the pork they ate every day.

The horror and wonder of the microscopic world were all revealed at this moment, which was simply unimaginable excitement for these medical students.

Sun Simiao spent the longest time looking. He watched and adjusted according to the operating instructions. He looked at the well water and the leaves, then looked at the leaves and the sand. One can imagine the impact that the magical microscopic world brought to him. He looked up and sighed after a few glances, then lowered his head to look a few more times.

Medicine is a very complex subject and Xia Lin is really an outsider, so professional matters should be left to professionals. With Dr. Sun taking the lead, many things will naturally become simpler.

We should also lament that religion has never become the mainstream in China, otherwise what they did would obviously shake the foundation of religious rule, and these people would have to be dragged out and set on fire and burned into charcoal.

Once the basic microscopic theory is confirmed, much of the subsequent work will revolve around this aspect.

"Interesting, really interesting."

Soon, Doctor Sun began to use his imagination. He first added sugar to the dirty river water full of microorganisms, and then observed the activity of those microorganisms. Then he added salt, and then liquor, and so on. In short, he added everything he could think of and began to record the activity of those little things in it.

Then I went to see the ants and locusts...

Anyway, he had tried everything he could, and then began to conduct very professional discussions and research. The new world activated a new desire for exploration in this old man, and he started to do research seriously with a group of students.

This left Xia Lin aside.

While no one was paying attention to him, he quietly slipped behind Dong Niang and pinched her butt when she was not paying attention. Dong Niang didn't even turn around as he quickly, accurately and fiercely hit his Danzhong acupoint with his finger.

The pain at that time... It hurt so much that his eyes went black, he took three steps back, covered his chest, and couldn't even speak.

At this moment, Dong Niang quietly moved to his side and poked the three painful points, Fengfu, Jingmen and Xuenang, three times.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xia Lin thought he was going to die at that time. The pain suddenly swept over him, which was more painful than taking a bullet. He was a man of iron, but he was almost shocked by her on the spot.

No, I have to run!
This was the last thought left in his mind, so he staggered out, holding his chest. Dong Niang chased him slowly from behind. After he walked out of the door, Dong Niang snorted twice: "Still running?"

This scene is just like Scream, with the murderer holding a knife and chasing slowly from behind, while the drugged heroine is stumbling and running in front, it is very tense and exciting.

"Don't force me to do it." Xia Lin covered his chest and stepped back: "I'm telling you, I'm really powerful."

Dong Niang stretched out her hand to grab him, but Xia Lin knew that if he was caught by her, he would be in trouble. So he took the initiative to meet the enemy in a hurry. He first used a wrist-turning move to grab Dong Niang's wrist behind his back, and then used his other hand to quickly use an inner-wrapped move to clamp her other hand on his wrist, and finally pulled her towards him with force.

"Haha." Xia Lin locked Dong Niang tightly against the wall: "There's nothing we can do."

The two of them were actually very close at this moment, forcing Xia Lin to use close combat, and Dong Niang struggled for a while and found that she couldn't get away, so she just looked up at him and said, "Let go."

"No, you're going to poke me."

"Who told you to touch me?"

"What's wrong with touching you? Huh? Speak up, what's wrong with touching you? I can touch a princess in the city and she won't even run away."

At this moment, Princess Pingyang was pushed past them by Li Shimin. Princess Pingyang looked at Xia Lin with sidelong eyes, and Li Shimin secretly gave him a thumbs up as he passed by.

"Look, let people see it."

As he spoke, he slowly let go, carefully guarding against Dong Niang's sudden attack, but fortunately she did not attack, but just narrowed her eyes and looked at Xia Lin: "You wait!"

"Don't push me. I'm telling you. I'm a ruthless person."

Dong Niang clenched her left fist and tried to hit Xia Lin's kidney point while he was not paying attention. However, Xia Lin was prepared and grabbed her hand: "Good fellow, you are going to hit my kidney!"

"What?" Dong Niang looked up at him with her head fractured and her cheek fractured, and said, "Let go. I still dare."

Xia Lin groaned, then leaned close to her ear and said, "If you make trouble again, I will get serious."

"Ah."

A disdainful chuckle actually aroused Xia Lin's desire to win. He twisted his body and changed his posture, while restraining Dong Niang and using his weight advantage to push her against the wall. Now Dong Niang had no room to resist.

"Are you convinced? If not, I will be rude to you."

"I don't accept it!" Dong Niang gritted her teeth and struggled, obviously an extremely fierce horse.

Xia Lin still has one hand free, and he has already grasped Dong Niang's waist with this hand: "I'm telling you, if you fight me again, you won't be able to decide whether to go on top or on the bottom."

Dong Niang is a younger sister after all, and she is not a martial artist. After struggling for several times, she was already out of breath and unable to move.

"No!"

"You said no, so what?" Xia Lin said as he put his hand under Dong Niang's shirt: "Do you still allow it?"

Fortunately, almost everyone in the medical school was busy with the microscopic world and didn't notice the macroscopic world. The only living things on this floor were the two of them. Otherwise, Dong Niang felt that she would be too ashamed to face anyone. Now she could clearly feel the temperature from her palm on her skin, which was really fatal. "Don't move!"

"That's not up to you."

The hand moved around and reached the abdomen. Xia Lin leaned close to Dong Niang's ear and said, "Tell me, do you want to go up or down?"

Dong Niang naturally bit her lip and said nothing, and the two of them just stood there in a stalemate.

Until someone outside heard someone shouting, "Master Xia! Is Master Xia here? The special envoy from the capital is here and is waiting at the gate of the yamen."

Hearing this, Xia Lin slowly loosened his hand and pinched Dong Niang's butt: "You are lucky this time."

Dong Niang raised her foot to kick him, but he dodged it: "I'll come back to see you when I'm done!"

"Go to hell!"

He hurried downstairs and saw Du Feng, who was panting. He asked curiously, "What is the imperial envoy doing here?"

"Then I can't find out about this matter. You'd better go back quickly."

"Well, okay."

Xia Lin hurried back to the government office and saw two officials from the Ministry of Personnel sitting in front of the hall. When they saw Xia Lin coming, they quickly stood up and clasped their fists, "Master Xia."

"Oh, I'm sorry to see you two come from afar. Come on, please follow me and have a simple meal."

"Master Xia, we will not eat. We are here to read the imperial edict to the prince of Tang. I thought you were the local county magistrate, so I came to inform you. Please help me invite the prince of Tang to come."

Xia Lin was stunned for a moment: "Which prince?"

"Li Yuanji."

When Xia Lin heard this name, he probably knew the situation. It should be that the chain trap between him and Li Shimin was activated. Although he didn't know what was on the imperial edict, Li Yuanji was definitely in trouble.

So he hurriedly asked someone to call Li Yuanji over. When the imperial edict came out, it sounded quite nice, saying that Li Yuanji was proficient in music and was highly appreciated by His Majesty, so he was specially recruited as a Hanlin academician in the Hanlin Academy and was allowed to come to Beijing that day.

Anyway, after hearing the imperial edict, Li Yuanji froze there. He was not very talented, but he understood the meaning very well. He was going to the capital to serve as an official, which meant he was going to be a hostage. He did not understand what was going on, and just stood there at a loss.

Xia Lin didn't know how others felt, but when he saw his expression, it was as if he had recalled the scene where Xueliang sent Jiang from prison back to Nanjing and Xueliang got off the plane.

From now on, there will no longer be a person named Li Yuanji in the Li family's sequence. He will be trapped in Jinling for the rest of his life. Even if the Li family rebels in the future, he will never be able to walk out of Jinling alive.

In this life, he has become a victim of power.

"Would you two envoys allow me to say goodbye?"

"I'm sorry, Prince. The emperor's order is urgent and cannot be delayed. Please get in the car."

Judging from his expression, Li Yuanji wanted to cry. No matter how stupid he was, he knew what his departure meant, but he had to leave. If he didn't leave, he would be disobeying the imperial order, and the next step would be that the court would force his father to arrest him or even kill him.

He stood there swaying, feeling a little shaky, Xia Lin quickly stepped forward to support him: "Sir, don't panic. It's just serving His Majesty, it's not a bad thing."

Li Yuanji tried to pretend to be calm and laugh out loud, but who knew that his laugh would be uglier than crying. He could only turn his head to look at Xia Lin.

At this moment, Xia Lin spoke up: "Two special envoys, Prince Li has come to Fuliang to make purchases and there are still some contracts that have not been completed. I hope the two special envoys can be flexible and not push too hard. You two have come from afar and are exhausted. Why don't you have a meal?"

The two envoys from the Ministry of Personnel looked at each other, both with embarrassed expressions on their faces. Xia Lin smiled and said, "I will take responsibility for any problems that arise."

"In that case, we will accept Master Xia's kindness."

"Please!" Xia Lin gestured with his hand: "Du Feng, go and take the two adults to eat something hot to warm them up."

Du Feng stood up and led the way: "My two lords, follow me."

As soon as they left, Li Yuanji could no longer stand. His calves started to cramp and he began to slide down. He tightly grasped Xia Lin's hand and said, "Brother, you are asking me to be a hostage. My life... is over."

At this point, Xia Lin really couldn't bear to lie to him and say that he was just going to the capital to have fun, so he could only pat the back of his hand and comfort him, "Prince Li, don't panic. Everything in the world is trivial except life and death. You should stay in the capital for a while before making plans. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, there is no other way."

At this moment, he could feel that Li Yuanji's whole body was trembling, and he was shrouded in a deep sense of despair.

"Brother..."

"Brother, listen to my advice." Xia Lin leaned close to Li Yuanji's ear and whispered, "You did your best to eat, drink and have fun. But when it came to joining forces, you were blinded."

Li Yuanji glanced at Xia Lin and said, "I understand, but..."

"Things have come to this point, there is no other way." Xia Lin sighed: "Let me see you off for the last leg."

After saying that, he shouted to the back hall, "Prepare the food! Bring up the good wine and good meat."

At this late hour, Li Yuanji could not eat anything. He just drank a few glasses of liquor and cried like a bereaved mother.

"Brother, if you have time to go to the capital, remember to look for me. You are the only person who understands me in my life!"

When leaving, Li Yuanji held Xia Lin's hand tightly, he was really reluctant to let him go, and Xia Lin nodded heavily: "I have arranged all the travel expenses and food for you, you can go now. I may have to go to the capital in a few days."

"All right, Prince. The time has come. We were delayed on the road. If His Majesty blames us, it will be very troublesome."

Li Yuanji got on the carriage at a loss, and waved goodbye to Xia Lin vigorously before leaving.

Xia Lin sighed until he could no longer see him. No matter what kind of person Li Yuanji was or what his historical reputation was, he was at least good to him. If someone was good to him, he should remember this kindness, even though he also had his own responsibilities as a hostage.

Once you are in the arena, you have no choice. To put it another way, at least he can keep his life in the capital, but if he is by Li Jiancheng's side, there is no guarantee that he will do something like the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

"Ah..." Xia Lin sighed, "It's a rolling torrent."
