Chapter 771 Ignite

Yang Reform himself prevented the new army doctors from "entering the WTO" and did not immediately let the new army doctors appear in front of the world. Yang Reform felt that this matter should not be rushed, and the common people had to slowly accept it and get used to it. Let the common people invite this new medical technique by themselves. If you push the new military doctors into the arms of the world with your own wishful thinking, the world may not appreciate it.

Anyway, this time the military doctor of the new army has shown his talents. Anyway, he has appeared in front of the world. As the saying goes, good wine is not afraid of deep alleys.Standing up by yourself is completely different from being invited by others. Yang Reform thinks that the new army doctors have been hiding for so long anyway, and it won't be a big deal if they hide for a while.

It's so strange that the military doctor of the new army is a medical officer.

Yang Reform has always been paying attention to Chen Yuting, and the Three Law Departments intervened in the bombing case, and Yang Reform is ready to find fault.

"It's been a few days since the catastrophe happened, how's the investigation by the three law enforcement officers?" Yang Reform asked.

Chen Yuting was puzzled, he hadn't talked about it yet, why did the emperor ask this topic first?Isn't the result of this disaster all piled on the emperor's head?Why does the emperor seem to... Chen Yuting was confused.

Several heads of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali Temple immediately stood up.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is already under investigation..." several people said.

"Is there a conclusion?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the preliminary conclusion is that it was a man-made disaster..." Several people looked at each other, and Chen Yuting spoke first.

"Oh, man-made disaster? Why man-made disaster?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the mismanagement of the gunpowder depot and the slackness of the craftsmen caused the disaster..." Chen Yuting said first.

"Oh, is that so?" Yang Reformed said.

"Report to Your Majesty, yes..." Chen Yuting replied.

Yang Reform looked at Chen Yuting and said: "I have also visited that big pit. It is very deep. The center of the explosion has basically been destroyed. Is there a witness, or physical evidence?" Yang Reform asked.Yang Reform quite despises Chen Yuting. For an explosion of this scale, the center of the explosion has been razed to the ground, people are dying, and even objects and things have been blown to pieces. It can still be investigated that it is a man-made disaster. That is really a fairy.If future generations can rely on clues, even atomic-level remnants to analyze the cause of the explosion, this Yang reformed the letter, but in this year and month, in order to prove that it was caused by human factors at that time, in addition to free evidence, There is no other way.

Chen Yuting almost choked to death, but the emperor actually asked him to give witnesses or physical evidence, such a big explosion, where would he go to find witnesses?Hundreds of people died on the spot in the explosion, witnesses?It's all broken into pieces..., physical evidence?Even more fragments... Can he hold a certain fragment and say that this thing caused the explosion?Chen Yuting is going crazy...

The ministers all looked at the emperor with weird faces, and then looked at Chen Yuting with gloating.The emperor's question is really tricky. It has always been decided not to rely on evidence, at least there must be a confession, at least a charge, but now, hundreds of people died on the spot in the explosion, where can I find a confession?Those who can talk are far away from the explosion point. If you ask them if they have seen who caused the explosion, this is obviously impossible. There is no physical evidence, no personal evidence, and no evidence. But really...

Chen Yuting was really going crazy.The emperor just asked casually, and he was cornered.

The two heads of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple began to secretly laugh.

Chen Yuting's face turned red and white.

"Your Majesty, hundreds of people were killed and injured on the spot in this disaster, and there are no witnesses or evidence to be found..." Chen Yuting had to admit the reality, this is indeed a difficult problem.

"... But, Your Majesty, it cannot be said that this was not caused by man-made disasters. Your Majesty, if it was not caused by humans, how could the gunpowder magazine explode so easily?...Your Majesty, this is the death and injury of tens of thousands of people! How can we stop with such a terrible disaster?..." Chen Yuting hastily argued.

"That's right, I'm also wondering why this good gunpowder magazine exploded... If it's said that the lax management caused the explosion of the gunpowder magazine, I don't really believe it..." Seeing Chen Yuting's excitement, Yang Reform interjected.

"..." Chen Yuting was speechless for a while.

"...Da Nei Zao is famous all over the world. If it is said that the management is lax, I believe it is impossible to manufacture such high-quality weapons as Da Nei Zao..." Yang Reform said again, Yang Reform intends to save his own men of those few people.The gunpowder magazine of this kind of age is almost called a handicraft workshop. The handicraft workshop can only have a big explosion every few years. This actually shows that the management is very strict. You must know that in the 21st century, explosive news is also endless. .In fact, ever since I became the emperor, and since the rise of Liulizhai, the factories under my command have already matched their salaries with those of Liulizhai. The salary of this arsenal is actually not low. Suicide.Yang Reform believed that this was at most an unintentional tragedy, or in other words, a tragedy that happened out of ignorance.

"..." Chen Yuting was speechless for a while. He didn't know how to explain it. The quality of Ouchi's construction is indeed superior. People’s confessions, without their signatures, it’s okay to ask these people around to make some confessions, draw a pledge, and say how lax the management of the powder depot is, but when he asked, he only said that the management of the arsenal was extremely strict. No one said that he was slack, which made Chen Yuting very depressed, and wanted to beat him up, but this gunpowder depot was not a place where he could do whatever he wanted. Although the leader Fu Mingde had left, it was still under the control of the inner court. If he dared to fight People, I'm afraid of unpredictable consequences.

All the ministers looked at Chen Yuting pitifully, you said you don't have that much ability, so don't fight with the emperor, you really didn't get any advantage from this fight, the fighting power is really low, isn't it 01:30 .

"Okay, let the Qing family step down... Sanju, you can continue to investigate the case, find out what happened, what caused the big explosion..." Yang Reform said.

"The minister leads the decree..."

"The minister leads the decree..."

The officials of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple had already received the decree. Their positions and views were somewhat different from Chen Yuting's on this matter, and they did not expect to fight the emperor.

"Minister... lead the decree..." Chen Yuting agreed in a very hurt way. Fortunately, the emperor didn't say how to finalize the case, and he still has a chance to do it again.

The three heads retreated.

The courtiers felt that it was a pity. They wanted to watch a good show, but they didn't expect that the wonderful beginning would end in such a hasty way.

"By the way, I remembered something." Yang Reform suddenly asked again.

"Your Majesty, please make it clear..." The ministers who had just retreated stood up again.

"... I remembered that the gunpowder magazine exploded. If I remember correctly, it wasn't the first time it happened, right? There must have been many times, right?" Yang Reform asked again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, the explosion of the gunpowder magazine is definitely not an isolated case in my dynasty. It has happened many times. If it is more serious than this disaster, there is also the disaster of Wang Gongchang in the late emperor's time. It's more tragic than this..." Seeing that Chen Yuting had no intention of answering, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment stepped forward to answer.

"Oh, is that right? That's what I said too. Why did it happen so many times? I'm afraid it can't be explained by a man-made disaster. Is it because I'm impatient to live every time and beat myself up? This As for the problem, you might as well check it out..." Yang Reform said again.

This time, it was the turn of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice to answer. The emperor said that they broke their legs. The emperor asked them to investigate the cause of the bombings in the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years. This really killed them..., This time it's not that there is no confession in the bombing case, but in the 200-year bombing case... Where did he get the confession?

"Minister... lead the decree..." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment replied helplessly. If he had known that this was a hard job, he should not have accepted it.

……

scattered toward.

Chen Yuting left dejectedly.

……

"Brother Chen, why are you bothering? You are fighting His Majesty like this, how can you beat His Majesty? You are hitting a rock with an egg..."

In Chen Yuting's mansion, a man of Chen Yuting's age tried to persuade him.

"...No, His Majesty is speaking out of consideration for him. He really made a mistake today. He should firmly grasp the point that someone must come forward to take responsibility for such a big disaster. Personally, I can't run away, but unfortunately, at that time..., alas..." Chen Yuting said.

"Oh, Brother Chen! To put it bluntly, your chances of winning are not great! Even if His Majesty releases them to top the tank, it may not be a big deal. Brother Chen doesn't even think about it. Your Majesty is doing disaster relief again. , and went out of the Forbidden City to visit some wounded people, drawing these lines one by one is to take responsibility for this incident, when it is really time to release them to take responsibility, how much responsibility is there?..." That person Advised again.

"...I have to say that the current Holy Majesty is indeed a very rare enlightened master in my Ming Dynasty! ...The disaster in the past few years was also your Majesty, but he is not as calm as the current Holy Majesty! ...Let alone say that the Great Ming Going inside to visit the wounded, this..., alas, I don't know how the current emperor learned these methods..." Chen Yuting sighed, and had to admit that the emperor's methods were amazing, compared with the apocalypse explosion a few years ago The Holy One, the difference was immediately apparent.

"That's right! Brother Chen, do you think His Majesty's methods can be handled by you now? ... It is said that there are people who are born with knowledge, and our Majesty is such a person..." The man was still persuading.

"Oh, I'm old, I also have a last resort!" Chen Yuting said sullenly. His difficulty was that he had to come out to fight the emperor. The emperor didn't want to see the imperial court being monolithic. Naturally, someone had to come out to make trouble, and he was That person, his predecessor has already made the ins and outs of the matter very clear. He must lead the "opposition". Although it is the opposition, the emperor still has to be in his hands. The relationship is mastered, small things can be played with the emperor, and when it comes to big and important things, he must listen to the emperor.

Thinking of the emperor's control over the court, Chen Yuting was even more powerless. The more he played this game, the more he became more passive. It was the game playing him, not him playing the game.

……

The next day.

Yang Reform has only just started.

Wang Chengen came forward to report: "Your Majesty, Reverend Zhang asked to see him, saying that he has something important to report to His Majesty..."

Yang Reform rubbed his eyes, and said sullenly: "It's so early!" Yang Reform had not completely faded from his sleepiness, and closed his eyes and yelled.

"...What, Zhang Xianyong is here...?" Yang Reform suddenly opened his eyes and asked loudly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, Daoist Zhang asked to see him, saying that he had something important to do..." Wang Chengen was also taken aback. The emperor's movement was a bit big!

"See..., I'll get up right away..." Yang Reform turned over and got up, and his energy immediately entered a full state. Since Zhang Xianyong can come, it means that what he ordered has a clue.Yang Reform knew that as soon as that catastrophe happened, his own battle began, not only against people, but also against the sky, and against the progress of science and technology.

Yang Reform's clothes can be described as extremely fast.After a few clicks, I put on my clothes, washed my face, and was ready to go to work and meet people.

……

"I see Your Majesty..." Zhang Xianyong was obviously very happy when he came this time. Obviously, he had a new discovery.

"Oh, the Qing family came to see me so early, but what is the happy event?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is indeed a great joy..." Zhang Xianyong immediately said with a smile on his face.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, that matter is over..." Zhang Xianyong said extremely happily.

"What happened?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, that's the matter! It's the matter of using electricity to ignite gunpowder!" Zhang Xianyong said happily.He was worried that the emperor would ask him to get involved in that matter, which would bring him a lot of trouble, but in fact, he went home and did some experiments, and soon discovered that the electricity he rubbed out could easily ignite a lot of electricity. For example, the easiest thing to ignite is alcohol, and kerosene, which almost ignites at one point, but gunpowder is worse, it is not easy to ignite, and it often takes many times to ignite, but it can be ignited absolutely.

"Oh..." Yang Reform did not let out a sigh of disappointment. There are many benefits to knowing science.

"...Your Majesty, I really didn't expect that this matter would be so miraculous. It is simply unimaginable. Without Your Majesty's guidance, I really can't believe that there will be such a result..." Zhang Xianyong said extremely excitedly , since he proved that frictional electrification can ignite gunpowder, then, in this dry climate, it is possible to ignite gunpowder after frictional electrification of the human body, that is to say, it is possible for him to crack the the cause of the disaster.

"I didn't expect this. The phenomenon already existed, but I just didn't pay attention to it..." Yang Reform said, since Zhang Xianyong solved this problem so quickly, he can speed up some progress.

"Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is right, it's because I'm stupid..." Zhang Xianyong immediately admitted.

"By the way, did you bring the experimental equipment? I really want to see it." Yang Reform said.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the subject has already brought it, and it is outside the palace..." Zhang Xianyong said hastily.He really didn't expect that something so complicated and unimaginable could be so simple.

"Okay, let's take a look..., no, let's go out and have a look..." Yang Reform said.It is indeed not very good to do the gunpowder ignition experiment in the warm pavilion, so Yang Reform decided to try it outside.

……

After a while, we arrived at the Taiye Pool.

Zhang Xianyong began to show his latest achievements to the emperor.

As for the gunpowder, I still got a small bag from Jin Yiwei, who was defending the emperor, and brought the gunpowder into the palace, even Zhang Xianyong, don't even think about it.

"Please look, Your Majesty, this is ordinary gunpowder. This is the electrified thing that I showed His Majesty last time..." Zhang Xianyong was extremely excited and showed the emperor happily.

On the side, there was an additional commander of Jinyiwei who brought gunpowder to the emperor, and he was also waiting for Zhang Xianyong, ready to see how Zhang Xianyong would demonstrate his spells.He received the emperor's order to send a small packet of gunpowder into the palace. He had to personally ask about this kind of matter, and he had to get the emperor's nod in person. After asking the emperor, he sent the gunpowder. Seeing Immortal Zhang displaying spells, he naturally widened his eyes.

Yang Reform couldn't help nodding. To be honest, the power of the gunpowder to ignite was still quite large, so Yang Reform stood far away and nodded.

"Your Majesty, the minister will start..." Zhang Xianyong said.

"Let's start..." Yang Reformed.

So Zhang Xianyong began to turn the electrifying device vigorously.

In broad daylight, the spark between the two copper wires is not very obvious.Zhang Xianyong turned the wheel a few times and saw that there was no movement, so he turned the wheel harder.

"Boom..." There was a burst of white light, then a burst of fireworks, and at the same time there was a low, muffled sound.

Although the commander of Jin Yiwei was prepared, he was still taken aback. He was so scared that he hurriedly stood in front of the emperor, fearing that the emperor would be hurt. His expression was so nervous that he couldn't be more nervous.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, Your Majesty atones for the crime, I frightened His Majesty..." Zhang Xianyong immediately pleaded guilty.

The commander of the Jinyiwei was already stiff on the spot. Defending the emperor was an instinctive reaction without thinking about it. But seeing Master Zhang ignite the gunpowder without using fire, the commander of the Jinyiwei could only do so in a daze. daze.

"It's okay, I'm fine, it seems that what the Qing family did is indeed accomplished!" Yang Reform said.Watching Zhang Xianyong ignite the gunpowder with the electricity generated by friction, Yang Reform also felt relieved, the science has been proven, and then there will be a good show.Fighting against people may not be your goal, but fighting against heaven, history, traditional habits and thinking is your goal.
