The prince got Gu Cijiu's suggestion and changed his name from Zhao Shuwen to Zhao Busi, which clearly expressed his intention of not inheriting the throne.After that, the emperor stopped calling the prince by his nickname, but called him Wulang according to his ranking.

"Father...Father...My son..." The prince had difficulty speaking, "Ah!" Suddenly, he covered his eyes and fell to the ground.

"Quickly announce the imperial physician!!!!" The emperor was shocked, and ran down from the high throne, squatting beside his son.

The prince covered his eyes with his hands: "It hurts..." His eyes became more and more painful, not only the eyes themselves, but also the position behind the eyes, like a needle prick or a fire.

"Wen'er! Wen'er! Where's the imperial physician!!!"

The first sentence refers to the imperial physician Xuan, and the latter sentence refers to the imperial physician... Even if the imperial physician can fly, he can't get there so fast.

When the imperial physician finally arrived, two silver needles were inserted, and the crown prince was stunned first.Taizong sat on the ground, half-embracing the prince in his arms, and asked someone to carry the prince away, but after he was lifted, Taizong realized that the prince was completely soaked in just a short while, and he thought it was his own. His hands were sweating, so he touched the prince's clothes to get damp.

"Wait!" He took off the dragon robe directly, and put it on the small couch where the prince was carried.A minister next to him wanted to open his mouth to speak, but his colleagues held him back.

"What are you doing running up at this time?"

"Isn't this... unreasonable?"

"Your head is made of stone!"

When the prince regained consciousness, he had already been carried to the East Palace. He was lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

He was already blind, and his eyeballs had become decorations, but he didn't know what happened to these two eyes. The pain was so painful, maybe he had a terminal illness?

"Goro? Goro?" Hearing my father at the bedside, I could still vaguely hear my mother crying.

The prince took a deep breath and opened his eyes...

"Goro? Are you awake?" Taizong asked anxiously.

Seeing the prince's eyes open, the queen didn't react at all, and became more and more sad: "Wulang? My son, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?"

It took a while for the prince to exhale: "Father, mother... I... seem to be able to see a little light?"

"what?!!!"

"An imperial physician! An imperial physician!"

The imperial physicians who were studying the crown prince's condition rushed in. They were sad when they were outside, and they were even more worried when they came in, because no one could diagnose exactly what the crown prince was suffering from. They thought it was Taizong. And the queen can't wait to get angry.But the imperial physicians came in trembling like frightened quails... Both Taizong and the empress were smiling, their eyes twinkling, full of surprises.

"My son said he can see the light! Just wait and see!"

When the imperial physicians heard this, they were immediately overjoyed, it's alright, it's not a disease.

The princes checked with the prince and found that the prince can only see a little bit of very vague light, but it is good if he can see, and he is not completely blind.

Taizong asked: "Is it possible for Wulang to recover slowly? From now on, everyone will be able to see it?"

The imperial physicians did not dare to pat their chests for affirmation, and only said: "The high fever four years ago hurt His Highness's eyes, but His Highness is a man of great fortune and good fortune. After these years of raising generals, His Highness has gradually recovered, but in the end the recovery is complete." What is the state, but it is hard to say."

Without a positive answer, the prince and the empress and concubine were not satisfied, but they did not anger the imperial physician either. They were already satisfied to this extent.

"Goro, are you going to change your name from Bu Si to Shu Wen?" Taizong turned his head and asked the prince excitedly.

The crown prince obeyed Gu Cijiu's advice and changed his name to Zhao Busi, which was to tell the world that he would not inherit the emperor's heir.This idea is really easy to use, and all kinds of aggressive people on Zhezi have almost disappeared.

"Father... let's discuss this matter in a long-term way." But the prince who had calmed down at this time chose to refuse.

"This is a matter of course, what's the plan?" Taizong turned angry.

"Father, I have sixteen sons."

Of the sixteen sons, fifteen of them came to inherit the throne.After all, Jinkou Yuyan, it was agreed at the beginning that they were raised as the grandsons of the emperor, and now they say that the prince is fine, and you are not needed anymore, so go home and find your parents.

——Taizong wanted to do this very much, but there would definitely be courtiers who would not agree, because after more than four years, many courtiers had begun to take positions. The fifteen princes were involved in all aspects of things.

"And... will my eyes be able to recover completely, or else, even if they recover completely, will they relapse in the future?"

These questions were asked by the prince himself, but if he didn't say them, the courtiers would come out and ask them in the future.

It's not that Taizong didn't think of these problems, but he selectively ignored them.In the end, Emperor Taizong decided to temporarily block the news, and simply everything happened in the East Palace, the sleeping hall of the prince and princess. Joking about his family's wealth and life.

Therefore, this news was buried extremely thoroughly.

Taizong pulled the queen, the two of them didn't sit in the chariot, they just held hands and supported each other, making the rest of the palace people follow from a distance, the two of them walked back to the palace like an ordinary old couple.

In fact, in the early years, the relationship between Taizong and the queen was not good, otherwise the prince would not be their fifth child.They were in a political marriage, the queen was ten years younger than Taizong, and Taizong's eldest son was seven or eight years old when she married.Moreover, the world was not peaceful at that time, and Emperor Taizong spent half a year in battle outside.

The queen is a little girl, facing the concubine who already has a son and has served Taizong for many years, one can imagine how difficult it is.

However, the characters of the other four kings were all spoiled. It wasn't the result of the empress killing the bastards. Those four children grew up beside their mothers. You have to ask their mothers what they look like.

Regardless of what happened in private, the queen gained a foothold in Taizong's backyard. More than that, she made good friends with many courtiers and relatives, and indirectly helped Taizong win over many civil and military ministers.Back then, Taizong was able to succeed to the throne stably, thanks to the empress's wife's diplomatic strategy.

Taizong and the empress love each other by respect and life, and they have almost become each other's relatives before they even love each other.At this age, Taizong has already stayed with the queen completely night and night. They are obviously an old couple, but they are honey.

"Ah... Wen'er, I just think too much."

"Is that comprehensive?"

"I shouldn't have to worry about so many things in the past. He is the crown prince, regardless of whether he is blind or deaf. If I let him succeed, he will succeed!"

"But he tossed so much, didn't His Majesty agree to it? There are a lot of tossings by His Majesty." The queen gave Taizong a supercilious look - you didn't withstand the pressure back then, what did you blame my son for?

"...Why do you always tear me down?"

"The concubine knows it's wrong~"

"Forget it!"

The queen was about to plead guilty, but before she could bend her knees, Taizong helped her up.

The two continued to walk, and Taizong sighed again: "Wen'er was right in thinking about it. With these children in Qiyang, those four worrying ones have all grown up along with them."

Whether it was Zhao Jinwen, Gu Cijiu, or Duan Shaobo, they all felt that it was only natural for the four kings to be unlucky.However, the reason they came to this conclusion was because they lacked first-hand information.

In fact, after sending his son to Qiyang, except for King Qi who was found in the middle, the other four kings all restrained a lot.

It doesn't necessarily mean that they love their sons, but as long as they want to be the Supreme Emperor, they have to restrain themselves.It's hard to say how long their restraint will last. After all, Taizong knew his four sons well and knew that not all of them were patient.

The reason for this is that the prince didn't say it just now, because it's not easy to evaluate his brother as a prince, and now the emperor himself said it.

"But if it is suddenly said that Wen'er is still the successor, I don't know what those children will do."

Originally, the four kings were vassals, and they had nothing to do with inheriting the great system, but suddenly they didn't have anything to do with their children, and then their children didn't have anything to do with it. This up and down process, But not everyone can bear it.

"Just procrastinating like this is not a solution. If Wen'er is really healed completely, do you want him to just watch helplessly and miss the throne? I've been talking here for so long, why don't you agree to me?" One sound?"

"Your Majesty, how do you ask the concubine to agree to what you said?" The queen spread her hands.

"You just... just agree to a few words?" Taizong was very upset, and he knew that the queen didn't speak because he couldn't say these words, but he really desperately needed someone who could talk to him back and forth.

"Then I want my concubine to say...what to do."

"What to do..." Taizong patted the empress and said, "Zitong is right, but... this is also difficult."

No matter how difficult it is, anyway, this is the responsibility of Emperor Taizong, so let him scratch his head slowly.

In Huzhou, Gu Cijiu was tending potatoes in the field.

After four years of artificial selection and planting, the largest potatoes grown now are the size of a baby's fist, and the toxicity has basically disappeared.

Gu Cijiu【Good luck, this kind of potato itself should not be very toxic. ] Gu Cijiu looked at the newly collected potatoes and sighed a little.The artificial selection of a crop, sometimes after several generations, may not produce any results, and his results are already very good.

Duan Shaobo [Brother, do you want to get two acres of land and try to plant it on a slightly larger scale? 】

Gu Cijiu【You don’t need a good field, just plant it on the edge of the field. I’ll send you potatoes in two days. 】

Duan Shaobo [OK.Brother, I have already made the Mara Harvester, whether to present it this year or next year. 】

Gu Cijiu [Real object? 】

Duan Shaobo was a little apprehensive. He originally wanted to surprise Gu Cijiu, so he didn't tell him, but now, hearing his tone, it seems that this is not a good thing [Yes... Is this a bad thing? 】

Gu Cijiu [It's not bad, we only do these for the sparsely populated border counties, but because the new farm tools are very useful, they are now being promoted to all over the place.People across the country are now able to farm more land with fewer people.Big families don’t need so many hired farmers even when farming is busy, food prices will drop, small farmers can’t afford new farm tools, and relatively speaking, their harvest will be reduced.The aristocratic family's desire for land will increase, land annexation is likely to intensify, and landless farmers will appear...]

System [I'm dizzy from hearing it (@[email protected]) Host, just tell me what you want to do. 】

Gu Cijiu [making paper, opening textile mills, and making steel. 】

System【Σ(дlll)! ! ?Why did the host give up treatment!Don't follow the old path of destroying the world! 】

Gu Cijiu【What old road?I have a younger brother! 】

System [Yes, is there any difference? 】

Gu Cijiu [The difference is that the son of luck is completely copying. He just got to know a machine, and he may not know how the machine works, so he gave the blueprint to the craftsman of this era, and the craftsman made it. Let the workers use it.In addition, he has no idea what this kind of mass production will bring. He doesn't know. As long as something is produced, it is enough. 】

System [You, you are too difficult to be a junior...]

Duan Shaobo [Well, I understand, big brother, no problem.I will design a complete set of production lines and workshops, but I need you to study with me the rules of safe operation for workers. 】

Gu Cijiu [Thank you for your hard work, don't worry about these, in the past three or four years, just get the steel smelters out first. 】

System [→_→Little Junior Brother, use your brain, host, you won’t just be idle, will you? 】

Gu Cijiu [I grow potatoes and mine iron ore. 】

Although Liangshan County, which Gu Cijiu governed, is located in Bian County, there is actually a huge iron mine here.The work of mining is still a high-risk and low-return job in modern times, especially in ancient times.The iron mines in Dawei were directly excavated by the criminals assigned by the police, and the corpses of the prisoners were thrown into mass graves not far from the iron mines every now and then.

In the second year after Gu Cijiu came to Liangshan County, after negotiating with the local garrison captain, he reformed many aspects of the iron mine.Reinforce mine tunnels, improve the living environment and food of mining criminals, and install pulley blocks in multiple places.He also wanted to add a conveyor belt, but no, the conveyor belt made of canvas consumes too much, even if Gu Cijiu is willing, others are not willing.

Although the life of mining sinners is still like that of livestock, it has undoubtedly been upgraded from the past to the point where there is still hope.And after Gu Cijiu's restructuring, the decline in ore output that made others worry has not occurred, but the ore output has increased year by year.

However, although the amount of iron ore is large, the quality of the ore is actually not good. Forty catties of iron is considered good for a hundred catties of ore. Jin, this is actually a loss, not as good as the money for burning charcoal.

Gu Cijiu went to the iron mine four or five times in a row. Because of the increase in production due to his "tossing around" last time, his words were very effective this time.Gu Cijiu made a plan for the tunnels, merged, dug and collapsed, and closed more than a dozen large and small tunnels, and installed three sets of pulleys.

After confirming that there was no problem with the mine tunnel he repaired, Gu Cijiu made a big move—adding wooden rails and mine carts.

The rails are not good, and the copper and iron in Dawei are very scarce. Tell others to lay such thick and fine iron on the ground?Those who are irritable will grab Gu Cijiu and start beating him.

But looking at the sliding all-wood small wooden rail and wooden minecart model that Gu Cijiu took out, everyone felt that this could be done——Gu Cijiu now found a good way to do it!He carves out raw materials such as radishes or pumpkins, and then asks Huliu to make finished products out of wood.

Although that Huliu was strange, why Gu Cijiu didn't just make it out of wood, but he belonged to the invincible Gu Chui, the question only existed for a moment, and he explained it directly as "I'm too stupid to understand the intentions of adults", Turned to concentrate on doing things.

"Otherwise, my lord has made those mine roads so spacious. Indeed, if the mine roads are not spacious, this road cannot be paved."

"My lord, can you make the track wider and the car bigger?"

"Yes, if the car is bigger, it can transport more ore."

Gu Cijiu shook his head: "No matter how big the cart is, it will not be easy to reinforce the pit. Once the pit collapses, no amount of ore can be transported out. Besides, a donkey can pull in and out of a mine cart of this size."

Everyone nodded, and began to study which mine road to lay wooden rails first.

"Don't worry, the wooden rails and carts are not ordinary wood and ordinary carts, especially for use in mines. Although there is no wind and sun, there is water and ore. Ordinary The materials will break down in a short time, and there may be an accident. Moreover, I have already reported this matter to the prefect's office. If it goes well, there is no need for the mine or the county to pay, and the imperial court should be able to allocate special funds."

The fact that Gu Cijiu was able to bring this matter up means that the corresponding supporting needs have also been prepared.The wood for wooden rails and wheels is best to use pine wood, which is also the wood used to make train sleepers in modern times, and it has been tested in practice.However, the wood itself needs to be treated accordingly before it can be used.Gu Cijiu has also designed this series of processes here, waiting for the order from the superior to teach the craftsmen.

In the report submitted together, there are various plans for setting up forest farms, felling and replanting.

Everyone heard the same thing. The ore produced in the mine in the past two days has been more than one year, and they have received more praise. The mine manager who is stationed here is about to be promoted, and even the people below him can go to the court. They don't need to be in a hurry to move up.

"In addition, this time I have to bring two prisoners. You don't need to worry, they are all serving their sentences."

Don't say it's time for the sentence, it's the time for the sentence, as long as it's not a serious crime, Gu Cijiu said that he would take it away, and the people in the mine would not talk too much.Everyone was very curious about who Gu Cijiu was going to take away, but after hearing what he said, they turned out to be two middle-aged uncles.

They are all old prisoners of seven or eight years, one is Wang Jiaxu and the other is Yao Diantong.They were able to survive the most difficult period because they both had small assets in their families, managed them properly, and they themselves would come to trouble, so they changed from coolies to foremen not long after they came here, but if it wasn't for Gu Cijiu reforms, it is impossible for them to survive until now.

The two of them were finally able to return to their hometown, but when they heard that Gu Cijiu was going to see each other, they came here in extreme anxiety.

Both of them have dirty faces, yellow and thinning hair, and they are already trembling when they are less than 40 years old.The two didn't go this way on purpose. Although they were foremen, they had to go down the mine together. They had been in the mine all year round, and there was no bone in their bodies that didn't hurt.Moreover, both of them were coughing constantly, Yao Diantong was more serious, and he couldn't straighten his waist when he coughed.

"My lord..." Hu Liu wanted to protect Gu Cijiu and retreat, he felt that these two people had tuberculosis, "Be careful of being overwhelmed."

"It's okay." Gu Cijiu waved his hands and stood still, "I want to send you two to Beijing to meet a nobleman, are you willing?"

These two people looked at me and I looked at you, Yao Diantong kept coughing, Wang Jiaxu could only bite the bullet and asked, "I don't know why the lord asked the villain to wait to meet the nobleman, why?"

"Because of your coughing illness, do you two know why you are sick?"

"This... This is the villain who suffered from the cold in the mine and injured his lung meridian, so he got sick."

"The sputum you both coughed up and the snot you blown out are all black, right?"

"Yes……"

"Where do the snot and phlegm come from? Haven't you ever thought that your lungs are full of these things?"

"!!!!" Yao Diantong was so frightened that he squatted on the ground, coughing more violently, and he kept scratching his throat, as if trying to get the dust out.Wang Jiaxu could still stand, but he was obviously frozen.

"My, my lord, can you, can you get these dirty things out?"

"I can't, I can only send you to see that nobleman and see if he can treat you."

To start large-scale production, the alarm bells in all aspects must be sounded. Pneumoconiosis is an occupational disease that affects a wide range of modern industries. Workers working in high dust pollution are likely to get sick.

In the original plot, Zhao Jinwen, the kind of urban fat man who only reads online literature after graduating from college, doesn't even know that he has this disease.Dawei, because the disease spread very narrowly, and the common people didn't know about it, most of them classified these patients as tuberculosis.Later, although with the emergence of highly polluting industries, more and more people fell ill. Zhao Jinwen may have thought of the cause, but he also classified it as one of the throes of industrial development, and ignored it at all.

These two people can't live for a year or two, and their breathing will become more and more difficult, and they will eventually suffocate to death.

The prince is not Zhao Jinwen, he is broad-minded, firm and decisive, but at the same time he is kind.When he saw such people, even though he knew they were sinners, he would feel pity in his heart, and at the same time, he would have an extra understanding of pneumoconiosis in his head.

To prevent this disease, there is actually a very simple way - multi-layer masks!

In the pictorials of women textile workers at the beginning of the founding of modern China, most of the women workers wore large masks. The masks did not prevent their saliva from spraying on the thread and cloth, but to protect them from pneumoconiosis.

In order to survive, the two of them naturally agreed.

The memorial for laying wooden rails in the iron ore was first placed on Taizong’s Dragon Table case. At this time, the court finally passed the mutual market, but there were still quarrels about what the mutual market was and who was eligible to go to the market.But the quarrel is the quarrel, Taizong and the ministers did not let go of what they should do. After reading the small model sent in the letter, this matter passed very quickly.

Half a month later, the two patients and a letter from Gu Cijiu were delivered to the East Palace.

Two months later, Yao Diantong died.

The prince, whose eyesight had recovered, stood by the hospital bed, watching how this scrawny man struggled to suffocate little by little.After Yao Diantong died, the prince raised his knife and cut open his chest. What he saw were two pitch-black lung lobes.

A few days ago, the prince cut open the lungs of a healthy condemned prisoner, and he knew what a healthy lung lobe looks like.

After the ribs were broken, the prince grabbed a lung lobe with his own hands, and he touched a handful of fine dust, which was the floating fine slag that was sucked into the lungs.
