His Majesty is a sick beauty

=====================

In February of the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty, the emperor ordered various cities to test plant white cotton. For quality products.Clothes made of cotton are as soft as clouds and as warm as fur, and the price of the craftsmanship is much lower than that of silk, so it was sought after by everyone for a while.

In April of the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty, the emperor ordered literary conferences to be held in various places to rank and recommend talents.Ten people are recommended from each city, and sent by the government to Suiyang for the final examination. A total of more than a hundred students are selected to be awarded officials. Parade the streets and set up a Luming Banquet in the middle of the court as a reward.

At the end of May in the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty, the emperor ordered the construction of a dock to connect the north and the south by water.Merchants from all over the place gathered near the wharf, and goods from all over the country came in droves, and the houses on both sides of the waterway were expensive.

In June of the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty, the Ge Museum purchased silk reeling machines and silk weaving machines, and the production speed of silk and satin increased several times.In the same month, the emperor made the method of making paper public and encouraged cities to make paper according to their needs.For a time, the price of paper was like grass, and movable type printing was popularized. Almost every family had "The Analects of Confucius", and everyone knew three characters.

In July of the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty, the commercial roads between the middle school and the countries in the Western Regions were unimpeded, and there was an endless stream of oxcarts on the roads all over the country. The prosperous scene is rarely seen in the world.In the Yu Dynasty, the price of porcelain and silk was higher than that of gold, and good varieties and exotic fruits emerged one after another. The commercial tax of one city and one month alone produced tens of thousands of catties of grain. The world praised it as the "Silk-Gold Road".

In September of the 17th year of the Yu Dynasty...

At this time, it is the tenth of golden autumn, and the air in the field is filled with the fragrance of ripe grains and rice.

On the outskirts of Yuchao, a test site paved with cement was extremely lively at the moment, surrounded by people from three floors inside and three floors outside.Some of these people were dressed in Chinese clothes, some were dressed in civilian clothes, gathered together, all of them held their breath and looked nervously at the people who were preparing in the arena.

In the center of the test site, several doctors and research officers are busy around a huge colorful cloth bag spread out on the ground. Next to the colorful cloth bag is a giant bamboo basket that can accommodate several people, and on the other side is a strangely shaped stove.

The colorful cloth bag has extremely fine weaves, the fabric is impregnated with oil and wax soaked in water, and under the sun it actually reflects the brilliance like metal.With the help of Lishi, the three doctors assembled the components on the ground - the colorful cloth bag is on the top, the bamboo basket below is tied by the thick hemp rope around the wrist, and the circle between the cloth bag and the bamboo basket is an iron frame. A shaped table with the stove on it.

The fuel in the stove is not charcoal or wax oil, but a transparent liquid made of black viscous oil fired at high temperature, with a pungent smell, and the burning flame is light blue. Extremely high, and this fuel is extremely resistant to burning, far exceeding traditional fuels.

After igniting the stove, a tall flame shot up into the sky. The three doctors recorded data while watching the flame, and used the regulating valve on the side of the stove to adjust the fuel in and out to control the size of the flame.The cloth bag was hoisted high above, and after the air in it was heated and expanded, the huge colorful cloth bag gradually swelled up, and the cloth bag gradually unfolded, forming a huge spherical body.

The little emperor stood at the forefront of the crowd, just like everyone else, staring at all this without blinking.It took half an hour from the time the fire was ignited to when the cloth bag was fully opened, but none of the people on the sidelines were impatient. The arguments of the three doctors.

In fact, the thing in front of them is not unfamiliar to everyone, it is like a Kongming lantern magnified countless times. As early as that time, people discovered that by heating the gas and controlling the heated gas in a light container, Just can obtain an upward lifting force and make object rise skyward.To this day, Kongming lanterns are still used as an important device for transmitting signals in the military.But in the Ge Museum of the Yu Dynasty, someone put forward such an interesting idea. If a big-headed Kongming lantern can bring a roll of light policy after heating, then if they enlarge the Kongming lantern and then enlarge it to Hundreds of times, magnified to the size of the thing in front of me, then, can this enlarged version of the Kongming Lantern carry a person?

The bamboo basket is filled with several filled sandbags. On both sides of the bamboo basket, there are thick hemp ropes wrapped around wooden stakes driven deep into the ground. But even with so many insurances, this device built in more than 500 AD is still intact. Dangerous exception.

Conquering the sky is probably the eternal dream of human beings. From building high platforms to illusions of immortals in the sky, human beings tie their romance and dreams to that endless blue treasure land, and they are not hesitant to use the most beautiful words in the world to describe this never-ending land. A virgin land where someone has set foot.

But in this turbulent and suffering era, there are still people who have never lowered their heads and poured their dreams into the sky.

Su Xun quietly watched the quarrel among the doctors. They were arguing over who should be the person in charge of the first experiment. If he proceeded entirely from the perspective of interests, then the best result would be to choose a slave or a death row prisoner. , after a little training, they will serve as the test subjects with an extremely high mortality rate.

but……

Su Xun looked at the clouds floating in the distant sky. This sky is so beautiful and moving. She poured her eternal beauty and equal eyes on all creatures on this land.

He can't deprive those people of their dreams, even if the price behind it is likely to be their precious lives.

Soon, the arguments among these doctors were over, and one of the oldest doctors with graying hair was selected as the test subject. Su Xun sighed softly and walked slowly in front of everyone.

"If I survive successfully, it means that our materials and design ideas are correct. If..." the doctor walked towards the bamboo basket and told his remaining companions, "If I fail to return, I will use Dr. Zhou's second set of design ideas."

"What's your name?"

The little emperor's clear voice sounded.

"...Lin Hanqing, Your Majesty, my name is Lin Hanqing."

Su Xun nodded: "Whether you succeed or not, your name will be destined to be recorded in the annals of history."

Lin Hanqing was amused by the serious expression of the little emperor: "Your Majesty, I don't care whether it can be recorded in history."

"I just want to touch it myself." He raised his head and looked up at the blue sky, "touch the blue sky with his own hands, that's all."

He looked at Su Xun, his expression was full of gratitude, this delusional plan was regarded as a fool's fantasy in eclectic museums, but His Majesty personally pulled out the money from the waste paper, so to speak, This almost invisible experiment was carried out by Su Xun despite all the support, and thanks to Su Xun, the final experimenter will be selected from among the three of them.

"The old minister is here to thank Your Majesty."

Lin Hanqing bowed deeply, turned around fearlessly and firmly, and walked into the bamboo basket.

He began to remove the sandbags one after another from the bamboo basket, and the people in the test site slowly retreated beyond the safety limit, watching the hot air balloon climb slowly and firmly, climbing...

One meter, ten meters, 50 meters...

Lin Hanqing manipulated the flame in the stove in an orderly manner according to his plan. He stood in the bamboo basket and climbed up with the hot air balloon.

100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters...

The hot air balloon rose tremblingly and firmly, and the heights that humans have never set foot in were broken little by little. The colorful hot air balloon gradually became smaller and gradually became a free-flying bird in the sky.

400 meters, 500 meters...

"There seems to be something wrong with the balloon!" The doctor holding the telescope at the side suddenly exclaimed. In his field of vision, the slowly rising hot air balloon suddenly shook, and Lin Hanqing, who was standing in the bamboo basket, was almost thrown out. .

The balance was lost, and the bamboo basket under the hot air balloon began to rotate rapidly. If it was not resolved within a few breaths, the entire hot air balloon would be entangled, and the fate of falling would follow.

Falling from this height, not to mention life, I'm afraid there may not even be a whole body.

Even the spectators below were covered in cold sweat at this moment, and they were so absorbed that they didn't even dare to make a sound, but Lin Hanqing, who was at a height of [-] meters, was able to solve all this very calmly. He quickly adjusted the temperature of the stove, Then quickly cut the rope corresponding to the two parties.

At the beginning of the design, these ropes were reserved. Lin Hanqing could be said to be familiar with the design of the entire hot air balloon. He found two key points without any calculations.

As soon as the rope was broken, the hot air balloon shook again a few times, and then stabilized under his control.

"alright, alright!"

The people below exclaimed happily. Everyone forgot what restraint was at this moment. At this moment, everyone's hearts were filled with the purest joy and pride, the pride of witnessing the first time human beings conquered the sky.

Palace ladies, eunuchs, warriors, scholars, they looked at the people around them excitedly, laughed and congratulated each other, all classes disappeared at this moment, because under this wide blue sky, there is only an equal life.

"Great!" Su Xun looked at the black spot on the horizon, covered his mouth and said with emotion, "Did you see it, did you see it?"

He looked at Eunuch Xiao who was standing beside him.

"The servant saw it, Your Majesty."

Xiao Buwen smiled and looked at the excited little emperor.

Su Xun looked sideways at Xiao Buwen, maybe he was infected by the excited crowd around him, maybe he was inspired by the courage of this human being to conquer the sky, under the heat of his head at that moment, Su Xun opened his arms and embraced Xiao Buwen. Xiao Buwen stayed.

Xiao Buwen was taken aback for a moment, he looked down at the little emperor in his arms, as if looking at a fragile dream.

Then he raised his arms and hugged back tremblingly.

At this moment, the two lonely souls hug each other tightly.

The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage]
