Eunuchs who traveled through the Qing Dynasty

Although you are a child at heart, have you never done something like this before?Anyway, you'd better go and see Miss Ziqing.Not to mention the kindness she owes you, after all, she has just entered the door, so it seems that we deliberately bullied and neglected her. "

Telling her this, Xiao Ran couldn't help regretting it for a while.The handling of this matter was too hasty, Zi Qing had suffered such grievances just after entering the door, but where will she put her face in the future?If there is a grudge in the heart, it is a small loss.After listening to Yu Ting's suggestion, she hurried to find Zi Qing.

When I got to the window, I heard a voice from inside urging me: "Sister, don't take it to heart. That girl Xin'er has always had this personality. The wind blows and the rain blows, but her heart is pure and kind. Mr. This is not aimed at you, but I just hope that our sisters can unite as one."

Another voice sighed: "Sister, don't talk about it, I'm actually to blame for this matter. Probably because I was used to it in the military camp since I was a child, and I can't change my temper for a while. After all, sister Xin'er is still young, and I As a sister, you should let her go. Speaking of which, my husband punished me for facing the wall, and it still saves face for me!"

After hearing this, Xiao Ran lost half of his mind.After all, is the mind of a female general, can it be compared with that of ordinary girls?It seems that I have the heart of a villain and the belly of a gentleman!Immediately smiling, she opened the door and entered the room, and it was Lin Qing'er who was persuading Ziqing inside.Xiao Ran bowed to Nayan Ziqing, and said: "I never thought that the lady is so magnanimous, as long as you can forgive Xin'er in your heart. It's my injustice, and I will apologize to the lady here!" Then he bowed again Bowing, he said: "Xin'er's little hoof is so rare, I'll make her a match for you. I want you two to sleep together in the evening, okay? Let's take care of her and vent your anger on you!"

Zi Qing burst into a smile, blushing and said: "I don't know how to be ashamed, who cares to accompany you! Sir, it was my fault just now, I will go with you to find sister Xin'er to make amends, okay?"

Xiao Ran smiled and said: "It's rare for you to have this kind of thought, but Xin'er is a girl who likes to get into the wrong place, and I guess she will be angry. It's not beautiful if you go. This dead girl is naughty for me all day long. Grandma, I'll go and fix her first!"

With that said, he turned and walked out.Ziqing hurriedly said: "You can't be a husband, please don't..." Lin Qing'er took her hand and said with a smile: "Let him go. Xin'er is getting more and more mischievous now, she really needs a husband to deal with her. Haha, this is called one thing down one thing!"

But when Xiao Ran came to Ning Xin's room aggressively, he thought she was crying and making a fuss, but who would have thought that there would be strange noises coming from inside.Gently pushed the door open and walked in, only to see that Ning Xin was really facing the wall at this moment, took up a pen and wrote the word Xiao Ran on the powder wall, drew a circle, and held the embroidered shoe in one hand, and murmured while typing : "Dead eunuch, smelly eunuch, beat you heartless!"

There were three girls standing beside her, but they were Xueyao, Xiaozhu, and Xiao Ying.Xiao Ying came here in a hurry when she heard that Yu Ting was in labor. She didn't want to encounter such a thing. She has the best relationship with Ning Xin, so of course she came to persuade her first.The three of them covered their mouths and couldn't hold back their joy, but when they saw Xiao Ran approaching, they immediately burst into laughter.

Xiao Ran was furious, grabbed Ning Xin and pressed her on the chair, and slapped that upturned butt hard.Xiao Ying pushed him away and said, "Hey, are you still finished? Aren't you angry with Sister Xin'er enough?"

Xiao Ran was startled, and said: "Why am I mad at her?" Looking at Ning Xin again, she didn't cry like before, she just lowered her head silently, shedding tears, her eyes were swollen like peaches.Seeing her like this for the first time, Xiao Ran felt love and pity in his heart, but also felt strange, he gently put his arms around her shoulders, and said: "Xin'er, you... what's wrong with you?"

Xueyao exchanged glances with Xiao Ying and Xiao Zhu, and said: "Let's go, let Xianggong accompany her alone." Xiaoxiu pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Master, don't bully her anymore!"

Xiao Ying said: "He dares! Hmph, if you bully Sister Xin'er again, I'll call him pretty!"

The three girls went out, Xiao Ran held Ning Xin in his arms, supported her delicate chin with one hand, and said softly: "Xin'er, what's wrong with you? Does anyone dare to bully you, or is it something I did wrong?" What?"

Ning Xin looked at Xiao Ran, tears streaming down her eyes, and she choked up and said, "Little Sanzi, you have only been out for half a year, and you just... married a new wife, then, what about my sister? You, are you Don't want her?"

"Ning Wei?" Xiao Ran couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then his expression changed, and he said, "Where is your sister? Is something wrong? Tell me, tell me quickly!"

"My sister... my sister climbed to the rockery a few days ago and broke her leg. Li Jingchou from Huichuntang came to show her. He said, he said that my sister's leg can still be connected. It's just her illness. I'm afraid. ...I won't be able to survive this year!..." "What?!..."

Princess Wei was lying in the tent and sleeping soundly.Although it is in a dream, it still glows with suffocating beauty, and the picturesque facial features seem to have no trace of human fireworks.It's just that the slightly raised eyebrows and fluttering eyelashes seemed to have been inexplicably frightened in a dream; the slightly thin cheeks had a morbid blush.

"Vill!..."

There was an indescribable pain in Xiao Ran's heart.The poor girl in front of her had splints on her right calf and left arm. Fortunately, the rockery she climbed was not too high, and she was lucky not to fall to the head, otherwise she might not even be able to save her life.But even so, Li Jingchou made the final judgment for her.

Evil music enters the brain, the heart fire turns over, the internal organs are not well, and the five internal organs collapse... If it is delayed, it will only be delayed for a while, and the disease is hopeless.

No help, really no help?

Xiao Ran only felt a trance in front of his eyes, as if he had returned to the plum garden in his memory.The snow is just beginning, and the sun is shining. In the white snow, a beautiful and beautiful person, wearing a red cloak, is elegant and indifferent in his gestures, like a fairy in the sky...

The picture was stubbornly frozen in Xiao Ran's mind, unable to get rid of it.An indescribable thought grew wildly in his mind, yes, this fairy-like person was driven to a dead end by himself step by step!

"Is there really... no hope?"

Xiao Ran almost exhausted all his strength to say these words to Ning Xin.But he had already expected the result. Li Jingchou, as the medical sage of the capital, his diagnosis was basically equivalent to the final judgment.

"No. Maybe, I should do something for her!" Xiao Ran gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and pulled Ning Xin out of the room.It took a while to stabilize my mood, and said a little strangely: "Why did Wei'er climb to the rockery? Is there no one in the mansion to take care of her?"

"I've been taking care of her all this time, it's all my fault!" Ning Xin couldn't help sobbing again as she spoke.Said: "Sister said... She, she wanted to be able to fly to the sky like a bird. As a result, as a result..."

"Fly? Ah..."

In Beijing in the third month of the lunar calendar, the auspicious snow has just melted.The sun was shining warmly on the body, and when he raised his head, an early spring swallow flew briskly over his head, chirping and flying straight into the deep blue.skyrim.There are a few clouds floating leisurely.

Well, maybe this is Weier's only and last dream.Xiao Ran clenched his fists unconsciously, staring at the sea-like blue sky in the distance, he heard a voice saying to himself: Wei'er, I want you to fly!

Tongran hall, factory, court peace negotiation, including the reorganization of Youfengying and Oroqenba Mukun, Xiao Ran left these matters to other people to handle.Then they found Luo Erto, Dai Tong, and Li San, as well as some technical experts in charge of research and development in the factory.A separate courtyard was opened in Xiao's mansion, and the research and development of the aircraft began.

In fact, Xiao Ran is a very impatient person, he just throws his hands away from the shopkeeper. In the past, he was only willing to talk about any inventions and researches.But this time, he put all his time and energy into research.Even forget about day and night.When I was sleepy, I climbed on the workbench and took a nap; when I was thirsty and hungry, my servants brought tea.In this small and somewhat messy courtyard, apart from the helpers, only Xiao Ran was left, almost isolated from the outside world.

Because Xiao Ran didn't know if Ning Wei's physical condition could wait any longer.

Modern aircraft, if simply divided by power.There are roughly three types: self-powered aircraft, such as airplanes, rockets, etc., which can provide the power required for flight by themselves; air-powered aircraft, such as gliders and parachutes; and one.It is powered by air buoyancy, and this is an aviation balloon.In terms of design difficulty, aviation balloons are simple in technology, relatively easy to manufacture and capable of continuous flight, so Xiao Ran chose this type without hesitation.

As soon as I told everyone about my thoughts, everyone was stunned in surprise.How wonderful and pleasant it is to be able to roam freely in the sky, compete with the birds, and be with the white clouds!Throughout the ages, I don't know how many capable people and strangers have dreamed of flying, but the result is that they either broke their arms and legs, or sighed at the sky, helpless.

Xiaodong's family has always had a lot of fantastic ideas, which is obvious to all, but now they want to get people into the sky, isn't this just a dream?Dai Tong endured it for a long time and finally couldn't hold it back. He reached out to touch Li Ran's forehead, and at that moment he received a cannon punch from Li Ran.

Everyone didn't dare to say anything more, but with the expression of shaking their heads and smacking their lips, it was clear that they refused to believe it even if they were beaten to death.Rolto was particularly surprised at this time, staring at Xiao Ran with glowing eyes, and said in a voiceless voice: "Selling cakes! Mr. Xiao, you, do you really believe that balloons can take people to the sky? Selling cakes! When I came to In the Qing Dynasty, I mentioned this topic to many people, but they not only didn’t believe it, but also despised me very unfriendly! Selling cakes, you came up with this idea yourself, or in

here?Sell ​​cakes! ..."

Rolto was trembling like a convulsion, and Li San, the father-in-law standing next to him, slapped his hands angrily: "Do you want to die? What a disgrace! You know something, don't tell me!"

Xiao Ran couldn't help being excited. As a military fan, he only knew that the first time in human history that aviation balloons were used in war was the American Civil War, which happened to be now. But how to make it and what technical problems need to be solved, he is not expert.Unexpectedly, this radish head is so well-informed. In this way, things may be much simpler!

Rolto couldn't suppress his excitement, he wished to reveal everything he knew, and immediately talked about it with everyone.It turned out that this guy not only knew, but had the honor of riding a balloon himself.

The first hot-air balloon in human history was born in the late last century. The Montgolfier brothers in France completed this pioneering work and launched it into space with a man in the same year. This is also the first time in human history. .

In the same year, the French scientist Charles and his assistant Robert developed the world's first manned hydrogen balloon, and they took the balloon one afternoon and lifted off at the Stulleres Square for a 2:0 meter).

In terms of performance, hydrogen balloons are obviously better than hot air balloons. The buoyancy produced by the same volume of hydrogen is less affected by changes in Celsius, and no fuel is required. The continuous flight time is long and the performance is relatively stable.After a detailed introduction by Rolto, Xiao Ran decided to develop a hydrogen balloon.

Rorto undoubtedly made a great contribution this time, even Li San, the father-in-law, felt honored, and patted him on the shoulder excitedly, really happy to have recruited such a knowledgeable foreign son-in-law.But just had an idea, and it was still far away from actually tinkering with hydrogen balloons.The first step to be done is the production of hydrogen.

In this regard, Rolto, who was born as a western medicine pharmacist, undoubtedly became an expert.The early method of producing hydrogen was to react iron powder or powder with dilute sulfuric acid.There is plenty of sulfuric acid in the pharmaceutical factory, not to mention iron. What needs to be done now is to design the reaction pool required for large-scale production of hydrogen and the container for collecting hydrogen.

Xiao Ran has heard a little about medieval hydrogen balloons, but their biggest shortcoming is that they can only be propelled by the airflow, that is to say, the direction and distance they fly depend entirely on the strength and direction of the wind.It is precisely because of this that accidents occurred frequently in the early aviation balloons, and it is not uncommon for the ball to fall and kill people. It is also common for unlucky ones to be blown to the uninhabited wilderness, desert or even the sea.Xiao Ran didn't want to be played with by the wind so casually, God knows if he would float to Java?

Therefore, he planned to design a rudder on the hydrogen balloon to control the course according to the concept of later generations; at the same time, he also needed a propeller to adjust and correct the navigation track at any time.The rudder is relatively easy. A sail and propeller that can be adjusted at an angle of 75 degrees is designed on the boat-shaped gondola, and a generator driven by a high-power battery is used to generate a certain thrust by the rotation of the propeller.

The battery is a copy of the copper battery copied back from Sushun Mansion. Without professional measuring instruments, it is difficult to estimate how much power this battery can provide.However, if it is only to correct the flight attitude and heading, connecting two sets of batteries in series should be more than enough.

The production of the gondola, as well as the installation of sailboards, batteries, generators, and propellers, these things need to be completed by Dai Tong and Li San.Now there is still a key step left, which is the production of the hydrogen balloon itself.

Xiao Ran's physics is not very good. He can't figure out exactly how big a hydrogen balloon can carry and how much weight he needs. He can only estimate a rough size based on his estimate and Rorto's impression. Inverted pear shape.With the size and shape, specific fabrication is required.However, in order to ensure a safe and stable flight for a long time, the choice of fabric must be carefully considered, that is, it must be tough, poorly breathable, and not too heavy, and the cutting and sewing must be quite professional.A few big men knew nothing about this, so Xiao Ran decided to seek help from his wives.

An emergency meeting of the harem is held.The wives gathered together chattering, and Xiao Ran asked the questions one by one.All the wives were thinking hard, Xueyao suddenly giggled coquettishly and said, "Eunuch Xiao, you are an expert in this field, why are you asking us?"

"Expert? What kind of expert am I?" Xiao Ran was stunned for a while, then slapped his head suddenly: "That's right! Grandma, I forgot, so I'm also the director of the Shangyi Supervision Department in the palace, a counterpart unit! "

In order to let Xiao Ran earn some money, Chu Xianfeng specially rewarded the chief inspector of Shangyi to use him to manage his affairs, and he only received red envelopes on a monthly basis.After returning to Luan, this errand was still hanging on his head, and this time it happened to be convenient.

Xiao Ran ordered Shangyi Supervisor to stop all work and work overtime to make the airbag.After all, it is a professional team. From material selection to cutting and sewing, it took only seven days before and after, and a light and strong airbag was produced.At the same time, according to Xiao Ran's design, he also sewed a parachute, as well as necessary safety belts, safety slings, jet backpacks and other supporting items for taking off.

At this time, Dai Tong and Li San had finished the gondola, and the electric propeller and rudder board had been installed.Two sets of copper-paired large batteries are specially designed, and the power is extremely powerful, which is used to drive the propeller, and the thrust generated is more than enough to control the balloon.The only disadvantage is that the equipment is relatively bulky, and the generator, which accounts for more than half of the weight of the entire hanging platform.

On Rolto's side, the reaction pool has been built, filled with dilute sulfuric acid, and an appropriate amount of iron powder is added, so that the gas can be produced very easily.Rorto used his brains to design a circular collection pipe, which can filter out impurities well, so that the collected hydrogen is relatively pure, which is more conducive to long-term flight.

The airbag was quickly inflated, pointing to the sky unsteadily, as if trying to break free from the ropes tied to his body, and fly into the distant clouds.Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran could stand it, but Li San and the other craftsmen were already going crazy with excitement.My god, feelings are really going to fly into the sky!The person sitting on it.Isn't it about becoming the Great Sage Equaling Heaven and Guanyin Bodhisattva? Isn't he about to become a fairy, become a Taoist, and lift up the sky?I have never heard of such a sensational thing in my life!
