Chapter 2513 Future Technology

Before Fang Jun could reply, Chu Suiliang on the side could not wait to say: "Your Majesty, Fang Shaobao has already named this machine as a 'steam engine', but Wei Chen thinks it is too mediocre. This kind of machine is ingenious The Art of Seizing Heaven, which can command the power of the Five Elements, is Haotian's reward for your Majesty's martial virtues. How can I do it so perfunctorily? Therefore, I ask Your Majesty to give him a name to show Haotian's magnificence!"


What I said...

Everyone present shook their heads.

People have realms, and these people in front of them are all people who have reached perfection in various fields. When they reach such a realm, ordinary secular power may still be attractive to them, but speaking and doing things will naturally rise to a level of At a transcendent level, such despicable things as flattery, flattery, and taking advantage of others are no longer acceptable.

Everyone expressed their disdain for Chu Suiliang's behavior of putting down his colleagues and flattering his superiors.

Others may have left some leeway, but Yuan Tiangang didn't care about his shamelessness and immediately scolded: "He is greedy for profit and slanderous. How can such a shameless person associate with a poor Taoist? Get out of here and don't let the old Taoist see you." Angry.”

His identity is the leader of the Taoist sect. Although he has no actual position, he is extremely famous.

Even the current royal family of Li and Tang claim to be descendants of Lao Tzu, which shows how high the political status of the Taoist sect is. As the leader of the Taoist sect, Yuan Tiangang's status can be imagined.

Chu Suiliang's face instantly turned the color of pig's liver, and he was so angry that his eyes were about to burst, but he dared not speak in anger.

Many court ministers gathered nearby, and everyone heard Yuan Tiangang's rebuke verbatim. This made Chu Suiliang, who had always prided himself on being noble and a literary master, extremely embarrassed and angry. He has been serving His Majesty Li Er all these years, staying by your side all year round. From time to time, he even helps His Majesty Li Er review memorials and retrieve historical documents. He feels that he has received unparalleled favor in the whole court, and is no worse than those prime ministers and ministers. How old have you been, how have you ever been humiliated like this?

However, when he saw the expressions of approval on the faces of Kong Yingda, Li Chunfeng, Fang Jun and others nearby, and His Majesty Li Er, who originally thought he could speak out to alleviate his embarrassment, remained silent and even looked extremely hesitant, his heart suddenly jumped. .

He finally realized that whether in public or private life, his status was more than one point lower than those in front of him. These people have either gained promotions and become pillars of the court by virtue of their actual merits, or they have gained a prominent position by virtue of the huge power behind them. But apart from writing and reading, how can they have any merits that they can show off?

To put it bluntly, my self-righteous belief is completely rootless and has no basis at all...

But what makes it difficult for him to understand is that I am targeting Fang Jun. What are you old guys doing out here?

His Majesty Li Er was unhappy and angry that Chu Suiliang was so mean-spirited regardless of the occasion. But after all, he was the one he held in his hands. If his face was lost in front of so many people, even he, the emperor, would lose face. , had no choice but to suppress his anger in his heart, and said: "Steam engine? Could this name come from the characteristics of this machine?"

Fang Jun said: "The principle is difficult to explain clearly at the moment. Your Majesty, please wait and see. As long as you have seen how it works, you can get a glimpse of it and know the whole thing."

I would like to tell you the principle of converting steam into power, but I’m afraid you won’t understand it at your level...

Xu Jingzong on the side rushed up in two steps: "Your Majesty, please let me show it to you!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Fang Jun secretly. After all, Chu Suiliang had disgusted this man just now. If the remaining anger was still lingering and he was angry at himself, he might not feel comfortable.

However, it was precisely because Chu Suiliang had been severely criticized and lost face in front of His Majesty that he had to jump out and take advantage of the opportunity to gain favor.

If Fang Jun could tolerate his request for credit, he might be considered more popular in the eyes of the emperor and be more likely to be recognized by his colleagues.

When an official has been promoted to a certain level, has the power in his hands and has the ability to promote the affairs of the court, then whether he can get along harmoniously with his colleagues becomes an indicator of whether he can better complete the tasks assigned by the emperor. After all, "lone ministers" "Although he is more popular with the emperor, it also means that there are constraints in everything when doing things.

Having no friends or cliques does not mean that you have no allies. How can you become a qualified minister without the support of your colleagues?

Fang Jun naturally felt the connotation of Xu Jingzong's glance, thought for a moment, and decided to help him.

In his opinion, Chu Suiliang and Xu Jingzong were two completely different people.

Chu Suiliang had literary talents and always regarded himself as a scholar. Regardless of his abilities, he always regarded the literary and elegant generals and ministers in history as his idols. Now that he chose the Guanlong nobles to take refuge, he would attach himself to them wholeheartedly. He did his best to contribute to the interests of the Guanlong nobles.

But Xu Jingzong is different. This man is greedy, shameless, and has a weak stance. It can be said that "whoever has breasts is a mother." Whoever can trust, reuse, and give power is someone's son, even if this person may be just a member of the harem. He would not hesitate to be a prostitute, even if he might be stigmatized.

He is so slippery that although he has outstanding talents, it is almost impossible for him to achieve much success. He can only go along with the wind and the icing on the cake.

Chu Suiliang, who seems to be incompetent but determined, is very likely to become a key figure in the situation, and may even make the Guanlong nobles turn defeat into victory and revive.

Comparing the two, Chu Suiliang is naturally the greater threat.

It is completely feasible to support Xu Jingzong, a lowly person, to suppress Chu Suiliang. After all, given the current situation, even if the Guanlong nobles tried their best to bribe him, Xu Jingzong would not be able to buck the trend and take refuge in the past.

If one day the Guanlong nobles really reverse the situation and gain the upper hand, even if Xu Jingzong takes refuge there, what's the use?

Such people who are weak-minded and follow the crowd can only become swords in the hands of those in power, using them to kill dissidents, and then bear infamy. There is no way they can become the mainstay and influence the situation of the government.

Thinking in his heart, Fang Jun remained silent and lowered his eyes slightly.

Seeing Fang Jun's acquiescence, Xu Jingzong let out a long sigh of relief. It seems that he has hugged Fang Jun's thigh tightly since he came to the academy. This decision is still effective. Although Fang Jun usually doesn't show much affection and respect, but he doesn't jump out to cause trouble at this time. That's solid support.

The rumors turned out to be true. Fang Erlang never treated his subordinates badly, even if it was just someone he was not close to.

I'll wait for a few days before getting the hundred strings...

What kind of person is His Majesty Li Er? He has already mastered the tactics and strategies, and has penetrated them to his bones. He can understand the inner activities of the two people just by observing their words and expressions.

Not only did he sigh secretly in his heart, it seemed that Chu Suiliang would have to find another yamen later. Otherwise, if he continued to stay in the academy, he would be killed by these two people one day.

Fang Jun was bold and never afraid of getting into trouble, Xu Jingzong was slippery and cunning, and Chu Suiliang was sitting in the academy these days, and he didn't know how angry he was...

Although he looked down on Xu Jingzong, since Fang Jun acquiesced, there was no need to refute Xu Jingzong's face. He nodded slightly and said, "Then show me how magical this thing is. It can actually control the five elements." The power!”

"Here!"

Xu Jingzong was very excited, turned around and came to the steam engine, and issued a series of instructions excitedly.

The people responsible for operating the steam engine were all craftsmen from the Foundry Bureau who were responsible for developing this machine. They were very excited when they heard this and immediately lit a fire and added coal.

After a while, the fire was blazing in the boiler, and the cold water in the connected water tank gradually heated up. Because it was well sealed, it made a series of sounds.

Fang Jun quickly asked for instructions and asked His Majesty Li Er to push back and ask the guards to block the front.

This boiler is the most difficult part of the design and manufacturing process of Shota steam engines. Because there is no alloy, the hardness and thickness of fine steel are difficult to control. From time to time, the chamber will explode during the experiment. Although the pressure of the original boiler is far It was far from reaching the level of later generations, but it was still astonishingly powerful when it exploded. Despite Fang Jun's repeated requests to ensure the safety of the experiment, dozens of craftsmen were still killed one after another.

What if it explodes now, and by chance, a fragment of the boiler splashes onto His Majesty Li Er...

Fang Jun estimated that it would be the biggest tragedy caused by a time traveler in history.

Everyone was staring closely at the steam engine, watching the fire in the boiler raging, the water in the water tank gradually boiling, and traces of steam overflowing from insufficiently sealed places, like an ancient monster that would be revealed in the next moment. Open the veil, reveal the brutal power, and devour the world! (End of chapter)
