Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Following the loud bowing at the city gate, within a moment the whole city was in a commotion.

    Many people were a little skeptical when they heard the shouting, but when they saw the hot air balloon flying in the sky, they had no doubts. Many people prostrated on the spot, and some bold people ran towards the hot air balloon.

    The fact that the prince's soldiers had just safely jumped from an iron tower nearly twenty feet high has spread throughout the city. Although there are many magical legends about the prince, many people who have not seen it are still skeptical. It is still the prince who jumped from the tower.  The soldiers in the city made the people in the city somewhat convinced.  If it were anyone else, people who didn't see it would definitely think that the person who said this was crazy.

    But now that the whole city has seen hot air balloons flying in the sky, no one disbelieves the previous story about jumping from a tower. If you can fly in the sky, jumping from a tower is not difficult.

    Hou Jian showed off for a while and then remembered that his destination was the palace. Although the general direction was correct, there were still some slight deviations, so Hou Jian hurriedly began to study the wind direction at various heights.

    At an altitude of more than ten feet, you can clearly see the location of the palace in the distance, so it is easier for Hou Jian to choose the wind direction.  After flying high and low in the air for a while, he found a suitable height and flew towards the palace.

    At this time, Xuande Tower was already full of people watching. Chao Gai, dressed in a dragon robe, stood in the center, and on both sides were officials from various ministries who came after hearing the news.

    After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chao Gai had already abolished the prime minister, appointed six ministers, and divided the six departments' responsibilities.

    Wu Yong, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhao Mingcheng, the Minister of Rites, Jiang Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry, Chai Jin, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Gongsun Sheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, Zhang Shuye is the censor Zhongcheng, and Chao Yong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, is temporarily photographed.

    The six departments of Daliang and Yushitai are parallel departments, and the six ministers of the six departments and the censor Zhongcheng are both second-rank officials.

    Gongsun Shengyuan is the leader of Liangshan law enforcement.  It was natural for Gongsun Sheng to be appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. Only Chai Chuchu was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Works, which surprised many people.

    Chai Jin was trapped in Gaotang Prefecture, and Liangshan sent troops to rescue Chai Jin. After Chai Jin recovered from his injury, Chao Gai made Chai Jin the leader, but he never had a specific role.

    Daliang was founded in Qingzhou, because there were not many ministers available in the court. Chao Gai followed the principle of "preferring shortages rather than excesses" and did not appoint too many officials.  Before he could carefully classify the roles of the few remaining people in Liangshan, Chao Yong led his troops to capture Tokyo.  When he arrived in Tokyo, he also surrendered many officials. Chao Gai then began to organize various departments of the imperial court, but Daliang continued to use troops abroad.  Internally, they are busy with disaster relief. Many departments directly use the same method as the Song Dynasty. Not only the yamen have not changed, but also many people inside have not changed.

    The biggest change is the Ministry of Household Affairs. In the Song Dynasty, the six departments existed in name only, and their power was taken away by Zhongshu Sheng, the Privy Council, and the Third Division.  The Third Department is the department second only to the Zhongshu Provincial Department and the Privy Council, and is in charge of the national finance.  The Ministry of Household Affairs is the department under the jurisdiction of the Third Division. The chief executive of the Third Division is also called the Prime Minister, and is in charge of the country's money and grain.

    The army has not moved yet, so food and grass go first.  Food and grass can be said to be the lifeblood of an army.

    Chao Yong naturally would not hand over his life to the third division that had become rotten in the hands of Zhao Ji, so he asked Jiang Jing to reorganize the Ministry of Household Affairs and transfer all the functions of the original three divisions to the Ministry of Household Affairs.  And in order to avoid interference from other people, the Ministry of Household Affairs does not need to be approved by the prime minister when it starts operating.  As long as he is responsible for Chao Gai, Chao Gai will naturally not put his son in danger.  All money and food operations are carried out first by the frontline troops.

    Chai Jin had previously served as the prefect of Kaifeng. Kaifeng had a population of more than one million and was the capital of Daliang. The stability of Kaifeng also affected the world. Naturally, Chao Gai would not hand over this official position to an official who had just surrendered, so he chose to remain  Chai Jin has no specific job.

    However, the rank of the governor of Kaifeng is lower than that of the governor and the six ministers. Everyone has always felt that Chai Jin's status in Liangshan is not high, but they did not expect that this time Chao Gai promoted Chai Jin.  It has reached the same height as Wu Yong, although the official department controlled by Wu Yong is more important.

    In fact, Chao Gai had no choice but to do so. Chai Jin had a high reputation in the world and had rescued many generals in Liangshan. It is said that Chai Jin had many similarities with his temperament, so Chao Gai also wanted to use Chai Jin.  , the previous appointment of Chai Jin as the governor of Kaifeng is clear evidence.

    It¡¯s just that the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion were complicated. Chai Jin had no experience in governing the place, so it was quite difficult to govern. In addition, he was used to being idle in the past, so he asked Chao Gai to resign several times.

    Chao Gai naturally would not allow Chai Jin to resign, so he could only think of changing him to another official position. Moreover, Chai Jin's popularity made it difficult for him to be demoted, so he had to be promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Works.

    However, the post of Kaifeng Governor was taken over by Shi Bin. Shi Bin was originally just the magistrate of Yuncheng County. However, because he was an upright official, although he was not executed, he was kidnapped by Chao Yong and put in charge of several villages in the back mountains of Liangshan.  , can be said to be overkill.  But after Daliang was established in Qingzhou, Shi Bin immediatelyThen he had a place to use his talents and was promoted to the governor of the state.  And Shi Bin did not disappoint Chao and his son. Although it was the first time to take charge of a state, he managed it in an orderly manner.

    Of course, this is related to the exemption of agricultural taxes in Daliang, coupled with Liangshan's outstanding reputation in Jingdong, and the severe criminal law also deterred many people, resulting in the reduction of political affairs.

    " However, Shi Bin's governance achievements cannot be denied, so Chao Gai promoted Shi Bin to Kaifeng Prefect.

    In two years, Shi Bin went from the magistrate of Yuncheng County to the governor of Kaifeng. Shi Bin's official career made all the officials who returned from the Song Dynasty have blood-red eyes.

    Of course, the promotion of Chai Jin and Shi Bin was only a small disturbance to the reform of abolishing the prime minister and reviving the six ministries, but the presence of Chao Yong, the god of death, in Tokyo also made no one dare to complain.

    Wu Yong, who was most qualified to raise objections, readily accepted the matter. He knew that Chao Gai was not greedy for power, and was magnanimous and loyal, so he dared to ask Chao Gai for power together with Zhang Shuye.

    The method of abolishing the prime minister and establishing the six ministries was definitely Chao Yong's work. He was not afraid of Chao Gai, but he was afraid of Chao Yong. Moreover, Chao Yong had this all-pervasive spy in his hands, so he had no choice but to accept the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

    At this time, the five ministers were behind Chao Gai, looking at the behemoth flying slowly from the sky. They were as dumbfounded as the officials below, because the Ministry of War blocked Jin Mingchi and only said that the Ministry of War was conducting new weapons experiments.  Tell them what they do.

    Except for Chao Yong and other people who had just arrived from Jinmingchi, there were people upstairs in Xuande.  The only one who knew was Chao Gai.

    At first, when Chao Gai heard Chao Yong say that he could use the principle of the Kongming Lantern to make a hot air balloon for manned flying, Chao Gai was still a little skeptical. If Chao Yong said that he used magical means to fly into the sky, Chao Gai would still believe it a little, but when it comes to making a  He doesn't believe that a large Kongming Lantern can bring people to heaven.

    So just after Chao Yong reported that the spaceship was completed, Chao Gai immediately dropped the memorial at hand and came to Xuande Tower to watch the spaceship.

    "Many people saw the emperor looking out from Xuande Tower and guessed the destination of the spaceship, so they gathered in front of the palace to watch.

    Near Xuandemen.  Hou Jian began to lower the height of the spacecraft, but Hou Jian found that after he turned off the fire, the most likely result would be to smash it down instead of slowly stopping, so he could only signal to Chao Yong.

    Chao Yong also saw Hou Jian's embarrassment.  Ask the guards in front of the palace to pull down the spacecraft.

    Although there were some minor flaws in the ending, everyone still couldn't come to their senses until Hou Jian got off the spacecraft.

    Flying into the sky is a dream that everyone has had, but when they reach adulthood, everyone knows that it is impossible.  Today, someone has realized the dream that everyone has thought about but had to give up.

    "If Chao Yong said that ten thousand Guan can fly into the sky once, I believe there will be many people in Tokyo who will immediately spend ten thousand Guan to realize their childhood dream.

    Hou Jian, the brachiosaurus, is also a clever person.  After getting off the spaceship, he asked the palace guards to help collect the spaceship, and then he bowed loudly in front of Xuande Gate: "Your Majesty, Hou Jian, wishes the emperor a long life as long as the sky, long live, long live, long live."

    "May the Emperor live as long as the heavens. Long live, long live, long live."

    First it was the soldiers, and then all the nearby people roared.

    Under the shock of the spacecraft, everyone unconsciously knelt down and prostrated.

    Hou Jian heard the sound of people kneeling and kowtowing behind him. When he turned around, he realized that he was the only one standing in front of the palace.  He hurriedly followed and bowed to the ground.

    The ministers in Xuande Tower were no exception and fell to the ground one after another.

    Chao Gai was also awakened by the roar of the mountains and the tsunami.  Subconsciously, he said two words: "No courtesy."

    Chao Yong was the only one who maintained his composure from beginning to end. Seeing that Chao Gai seemed to be speechless, he hurriedly whispered: "Is there anything in the world that is not the king's land?"

    Chao Gai also immediately understood, and he suddenly became heroic and shouted: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers. On the first day of September, the imperial court sent troops in two groups to wipe out Wang Qing and Tong Guan and unify the world."

    Although the Southern Song Dynasty was established, Daliang would naturally not admit that the Huzhou court was the continuation of the Song Dynasty. Instead, it promoted the power of Huzhou as Tong Guan and his troops to stand on their own.

    The people of the world have no doubt about Daliang's unification of the world. Now seeing the spaceship, they feel that just as the emperor said, every corner of the world should belong to Daliang. Wang Qing and Tong Guan are just clowns. They are the capitals of Liao and Jin in the north.  Shouldn't exist.

    Hearing the emperor¡¯s heroic decision, the soldiers and civilians burst into cheers.

    After getting off Xuande Tower, Wu Yong couldn't help but asked Chao Yong: "How is this spaceship made?"

    A group of officials looked at Wu Yong and asked about their doubts.??I suddenly listened attentively.

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "You will know the application of physics after I start teaching."

    Although Wu Yong was feeling very itchy now, seeing that Chao Yong didn't say anything, he could only clasp his fists and say: "Okay, when the prince starts teaching physics, I will definitely listen."

    Countless people inside and outside the palace wanted to find out. After Chao Yong¡¯s words spread, they somehow changed as they spread.  Physics is theology, and once you learn it, you can fly into the sky and escape to the earth, and the prince plans to teach theology to the world.

    With the spread of various theories, countless scholars spent their days looking forward to the prince's lectures on physics.  But there are many statues of princes in people's homes. In the eyes of the people, the prince is a god who can make people go to heaven, so worshiping the prince is more useful than worshiping those gods and Buddhas.

    I don¡¯t know where the statue of the prince began to circulate. Although it is not very similar, it looks very majestic.  After the imperial court eliminated the religion, more people worshiped the prince.

    The court did not give a detailed explanation, but published an article in the Di Di newspaper the next day. The prince had invented a spaceship that could carry people into the sky. It had many military applications, but it was not on the front page yet.  On the front page was the news that the emperor announced that he would send troops in two directions to wipe out Wang Qing and Tong Guan.

    After the ministers retreated, Chao Gai said, "Can I take that spaceship?"

    Flying to the sky is everyone¡¯s dream, and the emperor is no exception.

    Chao Yong said hurriedly: "My father is in the world, and the spaceship has just been invented, so I'm afraid there are still some instability. Let's wait for the spacecraft to be tested for a while, and it won't be too late for my father to ride on it again."

    Chao Gai nodded and said: "Okay, as long as you can fly into the sky, there is no rush."

    To be honest, Chao Yong doesn¡¯t dare to ride in that hot air balloon now. The balloon is made of cloth and paper, and the fuel is kerosene, both of which have hidden dangers.  In his opinion, a hot air balloon is like a bomb that doesn't know when it will explode.  He didn't have the courage to play.

    Of course, if there are no problems after hundreds of tests, he will definitely be able to fly on the wind, but now he will definitely not sit on it.

    Chao Yong went to the harem to greet the queen and chatted with his mother for a while.  Just came to the uterus.

    Hou Jian has returned to Jinmingchi with the hot air balloon to continue the experiment.

    The flying storm also swept through the palace. Everyone looked at Chao Yong with awe in their eyes, as if they were looking at a god instead of a human being.

    Chao Yong also felt the change in everyone¡¯s eyes and came straight to Ruizhu Palace.

    Hu Sanniang, Xiaoqing, and Renduojier were chatting animatedly in Ruizhu Hall for a few days.  Renduojier and Xiaoqing became sisters who talked about everything. Hu Sanniang also liked Renduojier very much, so Ruizhu Palace had a regular visitor.

    "Why hasn't the prince come back yet? I still want to fly into the sky today?"

    Chao Yong just entered.  Hearing Xiaoqing's complaint, he couldn't help but smile and said: "I'm back, but don't think about Feitian."

    When Xiaoqing heard Chao Yong¡¯s voice, he jumped up immediately.  He ran to Chao Yong and hugged Chao Yong's arm.  She said coquettishly: "I want to go to heaven and see."

    Chao Yong shook his head and said: "You can fly to the sky, but not recently. After a while, I will take you to fly to the sky."

    When Xiaoqing heard Chao Yong¡¯s promise, he couldn¡¯t help but said happily: ¡°How many days will it take?¡±

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "It will take a few months."

    "That's too long. The prince should take me to the sky earlier."

    Hu Sanniang saw Xiao Qing squirming around and couldn't help scolding: "They are all the prince's concubines, and they are still like children. Stop pestering the prince."

    Xiaoqing watched Hu Sanniang speak, then let go of Chao Yong, but still looked at Chao Yong pitifully, and whispered at the same time: "I will serve the prince well tonight, and the prince can do whatever he wants. Take me to Feitian tomorrow, what?  Sample?"

    Chao Yong slapped Xiao Qing's buttocks and said with a smile: "The spacecraft has just been developed successfully. Let's wait for a while to test it. If we fly now, it may not fall down anytime. If it falls from such a height, it will definitely be a puddle.  You can't save the meat even if you want to."

    Xiao Qing¡¯s pink face turned pale with fright, and she didn¡¯t dare to pester Chao Yong.

    Renduojier said: "The prince will lead his troops to the south of the Yangtze River on the first day of next month. I don't know when he will come back. Otherwise, he can take us to the sky before the expedition. I want to see how big the city of Tokyo is in the sky."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "The higher you fly, the smaller the city of Tokyo becomes."

    As he said that, he picked up a small wooden city for Chao Feng to play with and said with a smile: "It looks so big from the air, you can see it."

    Seeing Chao Yong teasing her, Renduojier couldn't help but wrinkled her nose at Chao Yong and said, "Stingy."

    Hu Sanniang smiled and said: "The prince is about to go on an expedition and has many things to do."If love is busy, don't pester him.  "

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "It's nothing, but the spacecraft needs to be tested for a period of time to determine whether it is safe or not. A few days are not enough. When I come back from Jiangnan, I will take you to fly. I hope you won't wet your pants in fear."

    Xiao Qing rolled her eyes at Chao Yong and said, "No way."

    Ren Duojier also said: "Being able to be with the blue sky and white clouds will definitely be happier than riding a horse on the grassland. There is nothing to be afraid of."

    Although both of them looked fearless, Chao Yong knew that someone would be frightened and panicked.

    When your feet leave the ground and reach a certain height, everyone will have a certain degree of fear.  Especially if you are sitting in a small basket, you will feel seriously insecure when you are in the air.

    Chao Yong did not engage in verbal quarrels with them, he just waited to see how their faces turned pale.

    By the way, you have to prepare some changes of clothes to avoid catching a cold.

    After playing with the children for a while in the Ruizhu Hall, Hu Sanniang asked, "Does the prince want to eat here?" when he looked at the food.

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "The mission is completed, I won't go anywhere tonight."

    When Hu Sanniang heard what Chao Yong said, she couldn't help but smile like a flower.

    After returning from Hedong, Chao Yong's life has been very busy, especially after the Mid-Autumn Festival. He has to go to Taixue to give lectures in the morning and reward various departments in the afternoon.

    Shi Gong, Hua Rong, and Qin Ming have returned from Hedong. Although their achievements are not as good as wiping out the Xixia troops, they are still indispensable with rewards and compensation for the casualties.

    When I return to the Taiwang Palace in the evening, I have to prepare for the lecture on the second day.  Although the mathematics he wrote can be regarded as an introduction to mathematics, the lectures are different from answering the questions, and we must consider teaching them better to others.

    There are still thirteen pregnant concubines who need condolences. Although Chao Yong doesn't have much affection for them, but they have Chao Yong's flesh and blood in their bellies, Chao Yong cannot ignore them and can only condolences one at a time.  Naturally, there is no need to think about sexual intercourse, and we can only ask for help.  The concubines were grateful for their thoughtfulness towards the prince.  From their point of view, the prince has been working non-stop, conquering the world, and he doesn't have many days in the prince's palace. It is really rare to be able to spend one day with them.

    There are many women in the palace, and the emperor likes the new and hates the old. Many of them may not be able to see the emperor from pregnancy to childbirth, and many of them only get a visit from the emperor.  Except for a few favored concubines who were lucky enough to spend the night with the emperor, it was difficult for others to serve the emperor during pregnancy.
