Nanhaizi.

As the weather gets warmer, strange stones, ancient trees, and numerous pavilions and flowing water can be seen everywhere, and all the rare birds and animals transported to the capital by the inner eunuchs from various places are brought here, adding a lot of vitality.

The gardener cultivated the soil and fertilized it more than two months ago, when the flowers bloomed, it was even more colorful everywhere.

Today, Zhu Youxiao occasionally had an elegant mood, and sent an edict to the letter Wang Zhu Youjian to go hunting in Nanhaizi, galloping hundreds of miles in Pingchuan, with only a group of brave guard cavalry at his side. When he was interested, he galloped out of Xuanwumen and headed straight to the north. Go to Long Live Mountain.

Zhu Youjian didn't know what the emperor meant, so he had to follow along silently.

The two of them boarded the Longevity Mountain together with soldiers from the forbidden army. Looking down at the foot, Zhu Youxiao gasped a little, and seemed to sigh: "The view here is vast. Compared with the red walls and yellow tiles in the palace, it is a rare view."

Saying that, Zhu Youxiao squinted at Xin Wang beside him, and said with a smile:

"Since I succeeded to the throne, I have been busy with political affairs all day. I haven't seen my younger brother for several years. I heard that my younger brother caught a cold a few days ago and went out to get medicine?"

"I was hunting in Nanhaizi today, and I didn't see my brother coughing and panting. It seems that the wind and cold have recovered?"

Zhu Youjian was startled, it seemed that the factory guard was still monitoring him, and his every move was under the control of the emperor.

He was annoyed, panting undecided, and said calmly: "Your Majesty is concerned, after taking the bait, the minister is fine, otherwise he would not have come here under the imperial edict."

"That's good, I'm relieved." Zhu Youxiao smiled and pointed to his feet:

"Look, brother, from this point of view, you can see most of the capital city stepping under your feet, and even passers-by on the streets of the city can be vaguely recognized."

"I feel, how second is it?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty is talking about." Zhu Youjian noticed something strange, and recalling what Miao Changqi said that day, he felt a little guilty and dared not raise his head to look at each other.

Zhu Youxiao didn't seem to be aware of it, he just looked at the bustling streets of the capital and the magnificent Forbidden City, and said unintentionally:

"My younger brother and I, when did we begin to address each other as the lord? Why did you lose the word 'brother' in the subject? There is no eunuch present today, and I just asked you to accompany me on a hunting trip."

"Come on, my brother will shoot for me." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile as he took the bow from the soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion.

Zhu Youjian subconsciously pushed his hand away in disgust, then he was startled, and in a flash he returned to his usual demeanor, so deserted that he seemed to reject people thousands of miles away, and only maintained the most basic courteousness.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's go back to the palace."

Zhu Youxiao's hand holding the power bow paused in the air, standing on the spot, his expression was cloudy and sometimes sunny, and after a while he threw the power bow back to the soldier in embarrassment, and said with a smile:

"My younger brother is unwilling to accept mere bow, but he is willing to have a long talk with that Miao Changqi?"

"Could it be that Miao Changqi came back from the dead with some kind of sorcery to help his brother get rid of the wind, cold and damp, which is more effective than the Taoist priest at Baiyun Temple?"

When Zhu Youjian heard it, there was a thunder in his mind, and it exploded.

I entered the mansion with Miao Changqi as a doctor, and the emperor had never been in trouble for many years. I thought he had forgotten me, but I didn't expect to be discovered.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youjian raised his head subconsciously, but looked at Zhu Youxiao.

In his eyes, Emperor Tianqi's gaze was as deep as an abyss, he couldn't see the bottom, he couldn't touch his heart, it seemed that he was falling into an ice cave.

Zhu Youjian was frightened by this momentum, and couldn't help trembling back two steps.

"why?"

Zhu Youjian calmed down the turbulent emotions in his chest, and said as calmly as possible: "Your Majesty knows why, do you have to ask more?"

"Hehe..." Zhu Youxiao waved back more than a dozen soldiers of the Imperial Army, and after they retreated a few steps away, he took a few steps towards him and said softly:

"Now they can't hear you anymore. Trust me, my lord, I have treated you well. If you spend this year honestly, I will consider letting you go."

"But you, I am so disappointed."

Zhu Youjian raised his head suddenly, looking at the Emperor Tianqi who seemed to have turned into another person in an instant. This person he used to be the most familiar with has already made him a little unfamiliar.

"Brother Huang, you have changed."

Zhu Youxiao was taken aback when he heard that he suddenly changed his title, but there was no fluctuation in his heart, after all, he was not the real Emperor Tianqi.

Then, with a sneer:

"I haven't changed, it's you who have changed. You have been led astray by those Donglin gentlemen who open their mouths of benevolence and righteousness, but keep their mouths shut. You are going the other way, going further and further away!"

Zhu Youjian also sneered again, closed his eyes and said:

"Your Majesty called me here today, didn't you just want to kill me? The crime of disrespect lies with me. Please don't involve the innocent."

Zhu Youxiao gradually narrowed his eyes, and even the soldiers of the Forbidden Army who were a few steps away saw that the emperor's expression suddenly changed.

But they didn't hear the edict, none of them dared to move, they all looked at King Xin vigilantly from a distance.

"When did I get involved with the innocent? I killed those who deserved to be killed, and the ones I implicated were not innocent. They were all to blame, and there is no cure!"

"Your Majesty really has the guts to say it out loud. Did you learn from Weichang Public School with this brazenness?" Zhu Youjian couldn't suppress his disgust for the emperor any longer, and said loudly:

"Yao Chongwen, Censor Feng Keliang, Censor Zhou Zongjian of Fujian Dao, and Li Jiashi, Censor of Huguang Dao in the case of Bingke, you can dismiss them from office, but you still don't plan to let them go!"

"Yao Chongwen, who was in the military department, was locked up by Fu Yingxing's factory servants on the third day after he was dismissed from office, and finally died in Dongchang Prison."

"Censor Feng Keliang, on the fifth day after he was dismissed from office, the factory servants kicked open the door of his room, grabbed him on the street in front of his wife and children, and beat him to death."

"Li Jiashi, the censor of Huguang Road, was also locked up by the factory servants at home. His younger brother Li Jiazhong was still preparing for the scientific examination, but he was also locked up. They all died in the Dongchang Prison."

"The most pitiful thing is Zhou Zongjian, the censor of Fujian Province, who persuaded him to be loyal, but lost his position and dismissed him. He was forced to death by the factory servants, not to mention his family, and his whole family was imprisoned!"

"My lord, is this the peaceful and prosperous world under your rule?"

"You are the Ninth Five-Year Sovereign, the co-lord of the world, but under the Longevity Mountain, factory slaves are rampant, and everyone is in panic all day long. Can't you see it?"

After Zhu Youjian said so many words in a row, the veins on his neck popped up, and he questioned one after another:

"Censor Liang Menghuan Shangshu impeached Wei Zhongxian's ancestor and grandson Wei Ximeng for rampant lawlessness, using the investigation of the disaster of Wang Gong's factory to disregard human lives and collect royal taxes indiscriminately! Has your Majesty checked all these? Have you asked?"

"No, right? When His Majesty encounters the memorial to impeach the eunuchs, he will only keep it in the middle, ignore it, and do nothing. How can there be a human master?"

Zhu Youxiao had actually read Liang Menghuan's memorabilia and checked it out.

As the emperor, Zhu Youxiao naturally had more difficulties than others imagined. Everything Wei Ximeng did was under Wei Zhongxian's instigation and his own acquiescence.

Disregarding human life, the people who died were bribed people who shielded civil servants related to the factory disaster.

There is also the arbitrary collection of imperial taxes, which is exactly what Zhu Youxiao himself meant. The taxes collected are from those big households, and from the civil servants who have a guilty conscience in order to avoid disasters after the Wang Gongchang disaster.

Zhu Youxiao's difficulties have never been told to others.

What's more, the current Zhu Youxiao actually didn't have any intention of explaining to the later Emperor Chongzhen after he learned of the secret performance of the Jiaoshifu last night.

The current Zhu Youxiao, only angry at Zhu Youjian's pretentiousness, his face turned red, and it took a long time for him to return to calm, and whispered:

"If you didn't have the identity of my younger brother, your current fate would only be worse than King Fu, King Gui and King Luoyang. Do you really think that I will keep you until now?"

Chapter 792 Modern Physics

After sending off King Xin, Zhu Youxiao stood alone on the top of Longevity Mountain, the top of the Forbidden City, with his hands behind his back, accompanied by only the increasingly cold wind.

Zhu Youxiao came from crossing, firstly he was imprisoned by Li Xuanshi, and then suffered the party struggle between Zhejiang Party and Donglin Party, finally the Eunuch Party rose, Donglin withdrew from the imperial court, Zhejiang Party rose up, and experienced too many disturbances in courts and temples.

No matter in the deep palace compound or in the Chaohui Huangji Hall, there are murderous intentions hidden everywhere, and no one is staring at himself sitting on the dragon chair.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao was really tired of being the emperor.

I've heard the same thing countless times.

He expected that all the scholars in the world would praise him for his stupidity, and he also expected that Yang Lian's death would be tragic, Ye Xianggao would be wronged, and he knew that countless people cursed him to die early day and night.

However, if we want to make the civil servants of science and Taoism obedient and shut up, so that the imperial court can control the place, and all the ministries and institutes should do their best to keep this Ming Dynasty from collapsing.

Scholars don't understand, Zhu Youjian doesn't understand, and the world doesn't understand either.

Zhu Youxiao doesn't expect them all to understand, as long as he firmly believes that what he is doing is right, that's enough.

From the time he succeeded to the throne, Zhu Youxiao had always had some expectations for the hard-working Emperor Chongzhen in future generations, and he had no intention of killing until he received the secret report last night.

But in today's hunt, he really saw Zhu Youjian's ambition hidden deep in his heart, and he still wanted to kill him.

Zhu Youxiao closed his eyes, and said lightly: "Pack up your hunting equipment and return to the palace with me. You guys have meritorious escorts. Each of you will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver and ten bolts of fine silk."

More than a dozen cavalrymen of the Yongwei Battalion hurriedly dismounted and shouted:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

……

Since the Ministry of Criminal Justice closed the case, the rumors from all over the place have stopped a lot, and the most critical moment has passed. Wei Ximeng was able to take Dongchang Fanzi to investigate this shocking case carefully.

Recently, as the date of the big bang passed away, the scene of Wang Gong’s factory was no longer so hot, and fans discovered many unexplainable phenomena.

For example, many people who died in the disaster lost their clothes. For Wei Ximeng, this situation is a long time.

It's okay to ask him to be the head of the investigation. He can't even think about this kind of strange thing, but there is still a way. Who knows the most about this strange thing?

There is one in the capital, maybe we can know.

"Accordingly, this case has a beginning and an end. It's just that the universe is unclear. Apart from the Heaven's warning that the remnants of the Donglin chanted, I really don't understand what it means."

Wei Ximeng rushed to the person in front of him, smiled and said, he didn't have the arrogance and fierceness when he faced the Donglin scholars, he looked like a fool.

In St. Paul's Cathedral, Tang Ruowang looked at the records of Wang Gongchang brought by the fans who came in from the back door, and pondered for a while, but he looked so childish, and said calmly:

"In our west, there is a theory of gas pressure."

"Gas pears?" Wei Ximeng mumbled in confusion, "Oh, my archbishop, can you understand me if you say something small, okay?"

Tang Ruowang rolled his eyes, he couldn't communicate with this kind of idiot, sat there thinking for a while, and then said slowly:

"Let's put it this way, have you seen pig urine bubbles before?"

When Wei Ximeng heard this, he nodded quickly, "I've seen it before, but what does the Wang Gong factory disaster have to do with the pig urine bubble? Could it be that someone put gunpowder into the pig urine bubble, and then..."

"Will you still let me talk?" Tang Ruowang looked helplessly.

"You continue..."

It's been a long time for the fans. As the grandparent of the factory, Wei Ximeng, who can even walk sideways inside the East Factory, is actually respectful to a missionary.

Since the Wang Gong factory disaster, there have been more and more strange things like this.

"Pig urine bubbles have a characteristic. If you blow air into them, they can get bigger and bigger. But what if you blow them too big? They will burst open, and the air blown in will be released again, which will make people around you feel the instant strength. "

"This is what I just said about the increase in air pressure. I have already explained it in local dialect. Do you understand now?" Tang Ruowang looked forward again.

Wei Ximeng seemed to have acquired some great knowledge, he was in a daze, put his right hand on his chin, and murmured:

"In this way, the Wang Gong factory is like a big pig urine bubble. The gunpowder is ignited, and the gas is released. After the combustion of the lacquer water, the Wang Gong factory burst."

"The pressure of the surrounding gas rose rapidly, and that's why many of the victims lost their clothes, right?"

Tang Ruowang was very surprised at his learning ability, stared at him for a while, and then nodded.

However, Wei Ximeng said again: "But Mr. Supervisor, I don't understand one thing. Even if the gas pressure increases, how can it cause people's clothes to disappear?"

Tang Ruowang had expected that Wei Ximeng would ask this question, because if it was some Western physics students, they would most likely ask this question when they heard this, so he said:

"Everyone wears very thin clothes in summer, especially many people, who only wear a few buttons. If the quantity of gunpowder hoarded by Wang Gong Factory is enough, these buttons can be destroyed in an instant."

"According to the theory of the Italian physicist Torricelli, the instantaneous high pressure will tear the thin clothing and separate it from the human body."

"Torricelli? What theory?" Wei Ximeng didn't believe it at all, and sneered, "He can be so amazing, just this one air pressure, can he judge these things?"

Tang Ruowang shook his head, he really didn't want to explain, no matter how much he said, he would only play the piano against the cow, he thought for a while, and said:

"If the stall leader can lead people to search carefully from the suburbs of Beijing to Tongzhou, maybe they will find some torn clothes to prove my words."

Wei Ximeng also knew that if he asked again, he wouldn't be able to find anything, so he waved his hand to let the fans go out first, then clasped his fists and said:

"Thank you for the help of Jianzheng. I will take people to search carefully from the outskirts of Beijing to Tongzhou. If I can find torn clothes, I will report the great achievements of Jianzheng to His Majesty."

Tang Ruowang nodded and watched him leave with a smile.

"Go to Dongchang to call someone, and ask the Tongzhou Supervision Department to send people to search ten miles around Tongzhou. If you can't find it, expand the scope. I'll see if I can find the torn clothes."

As soon as Wei Ximeng came out of the church, he was about to get on his horse and leave the capital with a wave of his big hand. A fan who had been waiting outside the door for a long time hurried forward and said:

"Master Wei, overjoyed, overjoyed!"

"What a joy, I don't have a wife!" Wei Ximeng took the rein with one hand, and now his mind is completely focused on the idea of ​​solving the case that he just discovered.

Fanzi quickly stopped him and said: "Your Majesty has an order, and the factory owner asked Master Wei to come to his old man's house to listen to the order!"

Wei Ximeng was taken aback for a moment, then flattered and left: "It's such an important matter, why didn't you come in and call me earlier? You wait to search first, and I'll take the order myself!"

Arriving at Wei Zhongxian's mansion, Wei Ximeng smiled flatteringly:
