[Comprehensive] The number one cannon fodder

As soon as the emperor's questioning words came out, there was an instant silence in the courtyard, and everyone couldn't help but stare at Grand Master Hua, whether they hoped that he would be safe or hoped that he would fall off the horse, they all became nervous at this moment.

Taishi Hua stroked his beard, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, the old minister is the minister who took care of the emperor. He always only knew how to assist the emperor with all his heart. How could criminals deceive the emperor? A few days ago, King Ning and several ministers praised the dog. The old man listened with a good heart, so naturally he would not refute, although Quanzi does not like literature and martial arts, it does not mean that Quanzi is a good-for-nothing!"

When Taishi Hua spoke, he glanced at King Ning contemptuously, and everyone could feel his disdain for King Ning.

King Ning's smile froze, and he sneered and said: "The grand master's words are interesting. If someone is not a martial artist, he can still be called a talent. Then why do so many good men study hard? Forgive me for being ignorant, I can't understand the meaning of the grand master."

Taishi Hua straightened his back and said slowly: "My lord is really ignorant and ignorant. There are thousands of knowledge that people in this world know, which can be described as inexhaustible. Wen can be the number one scholar to serve the court, and Wu can be the one who will rule the country. Anbang. But other than that, there are still talents in the industry that make our country run smoothly. Dare I ask the prince, are the best restaurants and the best clothing stores in the capital counted as talents? Without them, how can the prince be so good? The momentum? May I ask, are all the talents from all walks of life in the civil society skilled in both civil and military skills?"

The emperor had never heard Taishi Hua praise the people in the market so much, and he couldn't help laughing with novelty: "What the Taishi said is good, it makes sense!"

King Ning put away his smile, looked at Hua Taishi with a dark look in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Since the Taishi said so, it must be that your son is good at proficient skills? But most of the folk arts are for supporting the family. I didn't expect the Taishi to actually It seems that I have lost my dignity by not teaching your son to be an all-rounder in civil and military affairs."

Grand Master Hua snorted, "Any kind of skill is worth cherishing. If there is no folk art, how can the world be balanced? With literature and martial arts alone, how can the common people live and work in peace and contentment? To be a human being, we must first eat enough and wear warm clothes. Only when we worry about our lives can we have the energy to do other things. We assist the emperor to govern the country, and we must not underestimate any skill, otherwise the world will be out of balance, and it will be too late to regret! Therefore, as long as the dog does something useful, If you are willing to work hard, this old man will cherish the captain."

The emperor nodded thoughtfully, thinking that what the grand master said made sense.

King Ning squinted his eyes when he saw this, and provocatively said: "The grand master is always very serious in the court, and he is also very strict when teaching the emperor. I didn't expect the grand master to be so indulgent to his son."

The emperor was immediately disgusted when he heard the words, and couldn't help but said: "Yes, Grand Master, I thought you were as strict with everyone as you are with me, but I didn't expect you to be a loving father at home!"

The word "loving father" is extremely ironic, already implying that the Grand Master favors one and treats another more favorably, and has no love for the emperor.Su Xueyun glanced at the reactions of the ministers, and most of them gloated about their misfortune, and couldn't help being a little unworthy of Grand Master Hua.This person may be too old-fashioned, maybe he has a stubborn temper, but the Hua family has served the country for generations, and Hua Taishi even assisted the two kings, worrying about premature aging, his hair is all white, and he has no time to teach his son.As a result, from the emperor down to the courtiers, no one was grateful for his kindness, and they all wanted to find a chance to get this old guy out.The people in power in this dynasty, Su Xueyun already understood after seeing this side, the emperor is a foolish king, and the ministers have no good things. It is really strange that King Ning's rebellion failed in the original drama.

Su Xueyun looked at Grand Master Hua, only to see him salute, and replied: "Your Majesty, you are the master of the world, your words and deeds are related to the people of the world, so naturally you should learn more than others. Dogs are no better than your majesty, just For an ordinary person, the old minister is satisfied with only asking him to make some contributions to the court. This is the so-called teaching students according to their aptitude."

King Ning looked at Grand Master Hua coldly, and said sarcastically: "It's been so long since I haven't seen your son, since your son has the talent to serve the court, why not show it to the emperor, and let me and other ignorant people grow up. experience."

Almost everyone knew that King Ning wanted to see Grand Master Hua make a fool of himself, and even the emperor was accustomed to the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two of them, so he said immediately: "Master, let me see what your son has learned."

Hua Taishi cupped his hands and said: "The old minister obeys the order."

Taishi Hua glanced back, Hua Wenwu immediately walked to his side, and respectfully greeted the emperor.The emperor couldn't wait to know what Hua Wenwu was good at, and immediately asked him to show his talents.Hua Wenwu has been taught by Chen Xiaosheng these days, and his knowledge has improved by leaps and bounds. He is very grateful. He intends to help Chen Xiaosheng show his face in front of the emperor, so he asks someone to help him show it together.

It was the first time that the emperor heard that talent can be displayed with the help of others, so he became interested and said with a smile: "That's fine, let me see what talent I have today that the grand master agrees with."

The emperor always spoke subconsciously with sarcasm, which made Chen Xiaosheng and the others couldn't help frowning.Su Xueyun patted Chen Xiaosheng's and said, using her internal force to transmit her voice to their ears, "If you want to change the court, you can only do it by entering the court as an official. Opportunities are rare, so it's better to perform well."

Chen Xiaosheng nodded lightly, got up at the same time as Zhou Wenbin and Wen Zhengming, walked behind Hua Wenwu, and saluted the emperor.The emperor sized them up and asked curiously: "Who are you guys? The Grand Master must have appreciated you very much for inviting you to his birthday banquet. If you don't have real talents, I will punish you."

Chen Xiaosheng smiled faintly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will not disappoint you today."

"Oh? You are so confident? That's very interesting." The emperor smiled and waited for them to show off, like a child watching a scene.

Although it was the first time for Chen Xiaosheng to meet a person as supreme as the "emperor", because the face of the emperor was similar to someone he knew in the past, he couldn't get nervous at all.For the first time, he felt that it was good to always meet people who bumped into each other, at least it could help him relax.

At this moment, people had brought up the inventions of Hua Wenwu and Chen Xiaosheng, and the ministers found that they were all new things, so they couldn't help discussing in low voices.The emperor pointed to those things with great interest and asked: "What are these? Why have I never seen them before? Is the talent you want to show related to this?"

Hua Wenwu replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, these are all new gadgets invented by Caomin and three friends. Please look at this, Your Majesty, this is a waterwheel, which is different from the Kongming chariot in the past. It is cheap and does not require manpower. An improved waterwheel. As long as the drawings are distributed to the carpenters, mass production can be made, and every household in the village can use it. It will not increase the burden on the people, but it will make it easier for them to cultivate the farmland.”

Chen Xiaosheng took a water pipe and a wooden presser, and said: "Your Majesty, if you add these two things to the waterwheel, the water pipe can be extended indefinitely, even if the terrain is inconvenient to place the waterwheel, you can still use the water pipe to lead the water there. "

The emperor looked at the strangely shaped water wheel in amazement and said, "Is it really so magical? If what you said is true, it is indeed a good thing for the common people."

Hua Wenwu smiled and said, "Caomin will demonstrate for the emperor."

A few of them put the miniature version of the water wheel into the basin, first demonstrated the automatic water wheel without manpower, and then connected the water pipe, so that everyone could clearly see that the wooden presser moved by itself as the water wheel rolled, and The water in the basin flows out from the water pipe smoothly.When you don't want to drink water, just put the water pipe into the water or take off the pressure device, which is very simple and convenient.

The emperor was amazed, "Okay! It really is a good thing, Hua Wenwu, please tell me what the other things are for?"

Hua Wenwu then showed several semi-finished products, "Your Majesty, this thing is called cement, which can be used to pave roads. Although the price is not lower than that of waterwheels, if the roads across the country are paved, the trade between cities and towns will increase greatly. And communication with each other will be more convenient and quicker. There is also this thing called a bicycle, which can be ridden by one person and travel quickly, without the need for horses to pull the cart, which saves the energy of raising horses, and does not take up much space for storage, which is very convenient. And this thing..."

Zhu Xiaolian pulled Lasu Xueyun's sleeve nervously, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, why did they take out the things they didn't research successfully? Will the emperor blame you?"

Su Xueyun showed her a reassuring smile, and said in a voice that only Zhu Xiaolian and Qiuxiang could hear: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, those things have actually been successfully researched, but you can't take them out in front of the emperor, or you will be blamed I hide good things and don’t want to serve the country. I asked the young master to prepare those semi-finished products, so that the emperor will reuse them when he has expectations for their inventions, and he will not think that the inventions are too simple and require more of them.”

Zhu Xiaolian and Qiuxiang suddenly realized, and their hearts settled down. In their eyes, as long as Su Xueyun said something, it must be right.

When Hua Wenwu was introducing, some professional things were still unclear, and Chen Xiaosheng would add a few sentences.Zhou Wenbin helped to demonstrate the things. He rode a wooden bicycle and circled around. Everyone could see that this thing hadn't been researched well, the movement was slow, and the cement and other things still had shortcomings.But they have to admit that these things can be perfected, and they are still good things that benefit the country and the people!

Wen Zhengming hadn't participated in the research of these inventions before, but he was the only one among them who really cared about the country. Seeing these things, he was a little excited.After every time Zhou Wenbin showed something, he would praise it passionately, telling how much benefit the country would bring if this kind of thing could be perfected. Yearning, the listeners couldn't help but pay more attention to these things. Even the emperor felt that they were really talented, and they were all the pillars of the country.

Qiuxiang and Zhu Xiaolian were originally afraid that they would make some mistakes in front of the emperor, but now they secretly let out a sigh of relief when they saw that everything was going well.The corners of Su Xueyun's lips curled slightly, looking at Chen Xiaosheng and the others with admiration, not to mention their three great talents, even Hua Wenwu is a genius in miscellaneous studies.Compared with them, the emperor only likes to fight crickets, watch beauties, and go to casinos. It can only be said that he is a good reincarnation.

Hua Wenwu soon introduced the last invention - hot air balloon.Although Hua Wenwu didn't understand why Kongming lanterns were called balloons because of a different material, this was researched by Chen Xiaosheng, so he named it accordingly.The emperor heard that he could go up to the sky by riding this car, his eyes lit up, and he repeatedly urged: "You guys, show me that you can fly to the sky by lighting a fire? What if you fall off or float to other places?" What should I do? What should I do if the fire is extinguished? If I can fly to the sky safely, wouldn’t I be able to look down on my thousands of miles of rivers and mountains? I can’t wait to go up and have a look.”

The smile on King Ning's face was gone, and he immediately dissuaded him, "Your Majesty, you must not force it. This kind of thing has never been seen or heard before. How can the emperor's golden body be in danger?"

The emperor waved his hand indifferently and said: "No busy, let's see if they can fly up first."
