Chapter 232 Prince Yu’s Four Coaches
Huang Jin is here again, with a beaming smile.
After hearing the announcement from the guards in front of the palace, Zhu Zaijing hurried to the vestibule of the palace to wait for Huang Jin's arrival.
When Huang Jin entered Prince Yu's Mansion with a smile on his face, he was followed by four extremely beautiful and graceful girls. These four women all wore veils and lowered their necks. They came cautiously and in an uneasy mood. Got here.
“The old slave pays homage to the prince.”
After Huang Jin saw Zhu Zaijing, he immediately bowed affectionately.
Zhu Zaijing also hurriedly stepped forward and said to Huang Jin: "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Huang, there is no need to be so polite."
Huang Jin smiled and said: "Etiquette cannot be discarded, my lord. "
Zhu Zaijing shook his head and sighed, "Please come in quickly. It's too hot now. Let's blow a fan in the courtyard."
Huang Jin also gave in, and then went with him. Zhu Zaijing walked one behind the other, staggering about half a step, and came to the vestibule together.
After arriving at the vestibule, Huang Jin immediately felt the cool wind rising from nowhere. Huang Jin was surprised to follow the direction of the wind and saw a large wooden box placed in one corner of the vestibule. And this wind is blowing from inside this wooden box.
This can’t help but surprise Huang Jin. He walked curiously to the large wooden box that automatically vented the wind, and asked in surprise: "Your Majesty, how can this box be cool?"
Zhu Zaijing also laughed, walked to the wooden box, and then said with a smile: "Because there are ice cubes in this wooden box."
But this explanation still did not convince Huang Jin , he didn’t believe that putting ice cubes in a wooden box would blow cold wind, and the effect was even more comfortable than an ice mirror.
Huang Jindao: "Your Majesty, please stop joking with me and tell me what kind of treasure this is."
Seeing Huang Jin's curious look, Zhu Zaijing didn't intend to keep it secret anymore.
Zhu Zaijing said: "I call this thing an 'air conditioner'. Of course, to put it simply, it is just a cooling fan, and it really is not a real air conditioner."
Zhu Huang Jin was confused by Zaijing's words, "Air conditioner? Cooling fan?"
Zhu Zaijing continued to explain: "The air conditioner, as the name suggests, is a fan that can control the temperature of the space, but this air conditioner is It is still very crude and cannot control specific indoor problems. We can only adjust the wind speed and the addition or subtraction of ice cubes based on personal physical sensation to roughly control the room temperature.”
Zhu Zaijing’s explanation is very good. It was rough, but it also made Huang Jin stunned. He never dreamed that there was such a magical thing in the world? And from the appearance, it seems that this thing does not require manpower, which surprised Huang Jin even more.
You must know that simple manual rotating fans have long been commonplace in the life experience of these nobles, and they are not considered a novelty.
But it’s amazing that a fan that looks like a big box like this one can blow out a steady stream of cool wind.
Huang Jin asked curiously: "How is this done?"
Zhu Zaijing smiled and said: "By boiling water."
"Boiling water ?”
Huang Jin's brain suddenly twisted, and he was obviously a little unable to turn around. Shouldn't boiling water be hot? Why is it so cool?
Huang Jin urged, "Oh, my lord, just tell me, my heart is like an ant crawling around now."
Zhu Zaijing said: "It's true. I really didn't lie to you. I just relied on boiling water."
Huang Jin heard Zhu Zaijing's affirmative words again, and he couldn't help but be dubious, "Really?"< br>
Zhu Zaijing nodded and said: "Is it more real than gold? How about I take you to see it?"
When Huang Jin heard that he could take a look, he was so excited that he couldn't hold back, "Let's go, let's ask the prince to lead the way."
Zhu Zaijing smiled, and then ordered Huang Jin, " You stay here to entertain these four people brought by Eunuch Huang. What do you call them?"
Zhu Zaijing turned to look at Huang Jin again. When Huang Jin heard Zhu Zaijing's words, he immediately uttered an ouch. , slapped his forehead and said: "Oh, I almost forgot about the important matter. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Then Huang Jin began to formally introduce: "This slave is following the emperor's will and the ancestral system. The female officers selected for the prince are responsible for teaching the prince about bed affairs, so that the prince can understand the mysteries of men and women in advance before the wedding. "
Hearing this, Zhu Zaijing was immediately stunned. He showed a shocked expression. There is no need to come directly to the four, right?
What an evil old society!
But I like it!
Quack!
After Zhu Zaijing was shocked, he couldn't help but laugh wildly in his heart. After all, he is currently in adolescence of fifteen or sixteen, and he will never unconsciously deal with some "ignorant" things. There is some indescribable primitive impulse. Especially in the past year or so, Zhu Zaijing didn't know how many times he woke up in the middle of the night to change his underwear.
You must know that this situation is in Zhu Zaijing's memory, and it only happened when he was in junior high school before time travel.
I didn’t expect that after living my life again, I would have to go through such a shy adolescence. It was really embarrassing.
So when Huang Jin brought this "coach", Zhu Zaijing was very excited and ecstatic inside, but Zhu Zaijing still pretended to have a sanctimonious expression on his face.
Zhu Zaijing hummed softly, "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."
Then Zhu Zaijing looked past Huang Jin at the four veiled and graceful figures. The pretty woman asked: "What are the names of the four female officials?"
After hearing Zhu Zaijing's question, the four of them also bowed to Zhu Zaijing and whispered nervously: "My slave is playing the piano." "My slave is playing chess." "My slave is writing." "My slave is writing." painting.".
Oops!
After hearing the names of these four coaches, Zhu Zaijing couldn't help but sigh in his heart. What a good name. They have all the music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Zhu Zaijing coughed again pretending to be serious, "Meng Chong took them to the back house, arranged a place for each of them, and told them about the rules of the palace. I will personally test them tonight. "
Meng Chong took the four female coaches and left the front yard to the back house. At this time, Zhu Zaijing also withdrew his sighing eyes and took Huang Jin to explore the secret of boiling water.
Zhu Zaijing took Huang Jin to a small courtyard behind the vestibule. In this small courtyard, a mechanical group driven by ropes and wooden pulleys was built. Huang Jin could clearly see that these pulleys and ropes were moving. , I don’t know whether the rope drives the pulley or the pulley drives the rope.
Anyway, everything in front of you feels extremely wonderful.
Huang Jin looked at the scene in front of him and said in shock: "How did the prince do this?"
Zhu Zaijing said: "Boil the water!"
Huang Jin stretched his head and looked around again, "I didn't see it."
Zhu Zaijing smiled and said: "Oh, it's not burned here. It's just the power brought by boiling water that makes these ropes and pulleys move. The place where the water is boiled is still in the yard behind."
Huang Jin couldn't help but urged excitedly, "Your Majesty, please take this slave to have a look."
Then Zhu Zaijing did not continue to ink, and took Huang Jin directly. In a courtyard further back.
I saw a huge machine emitting white smoke moving in the yard, and behind the machine there were two servants staring at the stove in the machine, filling it with oil from time to time. A shovelful of coal is used for burning.
Huang Jin looked at the scene in front of him and was even more shocked, "How was this done?"
Zhu Zaijing smiled shyly, "I learned this from reading "Yongle Dadian" when I had nothing to do. The craftsmen in the palace have been working on it for almost two years. It has just been assembled today. The first This is an attempt. Now the craftsmen are still carefully checking and observing every link to see if there are any problems that need to be improved."
Huang Jin was stunned when he heard this. He didn't dare. He asked with confidence: "Is it really recorded in "Yongle Dadian"?"
Zhu Zaijing said shamelessly: "Of course! "Yongle Dadian" is all-encompassing, and I have been there for the past two years. I read that this method of boiling water is copied and improved from the strange mechanism seen in "Yongle Dadian". From the current results, it seems to be pretty good."
Huang Jin sighed: " Not only is it pretty good, it’s simply a masterpiece! I didn’t expect that the Yongle Dadian recorded such a treasure!”
Zhu Zaijing said: “Yes, the Yongle Dadian is such a great book. In addition to His Majesty's attention, the rest of the people in the palace thought that this canon was complicated and difficult to read, so they put it away in a cabinet without using it. This was a real waste of resources and failed to live up to the compilation of Emperor Cheng Zuwen. It’s a lot of hard work for this ceremony.”
Although Zhu Zaijing said this, in fact, Zhu Zaijing also knew very well that although the "Yongle Dadian" is vast and contains countless wisdom crystallization and cultural inheritance, there are also many cultural technologies that are not recorded in the "Yongle Dadian" of.
So don’t be overly superstitious about a certain book or a certain person at any time. If someone often emphasizes that a certain book or a certain person is always correct for no reason, such a person is not stupid. Bad, be sure to stay away.
The reason why Zhu Zaijing behaved like this was just to make excuses for what he did.
Anyway, "Yongle Dadian" has hundreds of millions of words. No one can really read through these hundreds of millions of words without having to compete with Zhu Zaijing.
