Eight hundred and fortieth chapters young prince
"Mother, this boat is so big!"
Zhu Bo, who is over six years old, is wearing a prince's uniform and is led by Queen Li Juan'er on the deck of a warship.
The little Zhu Bo looked up at the high sails and the battleship deck he stepped on, and couldn't help but speak.
"This is naturally. This warship is one of the most powerful warships in the Ming Dynasty. This is the thunder warship ordered by your father. The reason why our Ming Dynasty can roam all over the world is to rely on this kind of warship to defeat various countries." Li Juan'er explained to Zhu Bo with a smile.
"This is the Thundership? I heard from Master Wu that Master Wu said that this ship is the most powerful warship in the world now." Zhu Bo's eyes lit up and he said quickly, and his eyes couldn't help but look around.
Since his birth, Zhu Bo has been in the palace and did not leave the palace until he entered school. Even after leaving the palace, he and his younger brothers and sisters, including the nobles who went to school together, only went to and from the palace and the college. He only rarely visited several places near Nanjing under the arrangement of Wu Sidao.
So for Zhu Bo?, the world he knew was just a concept in his mind, and many things were just told by teachers or Zhu Yicheng and Li Juaner. But he had never seen it with his own eyes, let alone experienced it in person.
But now it is different. This time it can be said that it was Bo Zhu? The first time he really left the deep palace and came into contact with the big world outside. Looking at everything around him, he was full of curiosity and surprises.
"This Thundership is really too big. It turns out that the so-called power is like this..." Zhu Bo's majesty impressed me. Moreover, as the warship drove out of the Yangtze River and gradually headed towards Shanghai, it was about to go up the coast soon. When he saw the real sea, Zhu Bo's heart was both excited and excited.
At this time, he felt a little regretful that his younger brother and sister failed to go north with him. If they were there, they would have been able to see everything unusual like him.
Why did the younger brother and sister not go north with him, but continued to stay in the Nanjing Palace and had to wait until he arrived in Beijing before going north in batches. Zhu Bo was not very clear about this arrangement, so he felt very regretful and puzzled.
In fact, this is to be on the safe side. After all, although Zhu Yicheng has many descendants, as the crown prince Zhu Bo, it is different. So Zhu Bo and Queen Li Juaner travel north together, while the other princes, princesses and concubines will set off later. This is to be on the safe side, and it is also considered that if an accident occurs.
Zhu Bo, who was on the warship for the first time, felt curious and fresh when he saw everything, so Li Juaner simply took him to take a look at the warship. He even took him to see the artillery room, which was the cabin where the cannon was installed. He just wanted to be safe and did not stop there too much. He just took him to touch the cannon, then looked at the layout of the cannon and left.
Now, the warship has entered the Yangtze River and is heading down the river towards the estuary. As the warship moves forward, the Yangtze River's river surface becomes wider and wider, and it is vaguely visible and even visible on both sides, giving people a feeling of relaxation and joy.
"Empress, the wind on the river is getting stronger. Please ask Empress and His Highness the Crown Prince to go into the cabin to rest." A small yellow gate saw Li Juaner and Bo Zhu stay on the deck for a long time. As the wind started to rise outside, and the deck was a little unsafe, I couldn't help but step forward and whisper.
Li Juan'er nodded slightly, pulled Zhu Bo off the deck and headed towards the cabin. After a while, they arrived in the cabin. This was a special cabin with a large area inside. If the four walls and ceiling were not different from ordinary houses, it would almost seem like a house on land.
In the cabin, a person is sitting upright on a chair. Because it is on the boat, all the furniture here, including the chairs, are basically fixed to the ground, which is to prevent bumps from causing collisions.
The man was wearing a Taoist robe, holding a book in his hand and looking through it. He placed a pot of tea next to him. A incense burner was lit not far away, and the misty blue smoke was rising.
"Empress, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Hearing the footsteps, Wu Sidao looked up, put down the book in his hand, and saluted the two of them with a smile.
"Mr. Wu is in great interest and is still reading books at this time." Although Li Juan'er is the queen, she is different from an ordinary queen. She is a woman who has experienced wars and has been born and died after being with Zhu Yicheng.
What's more, when Zhu Yicheng was controlled by Yuan Qi, it was Li Juaner who attracted the personnel for Zhu Yicheng, which led to the team that later restored the country. For a while, Li Juaner even took charge of the personal guards and spies for Zhu Yicheng, the latter was the current Jinyiwei. It can be said that Li Juaner was not an ordinary woman, so it would be no exaggeration to say a heroine.
Li Juan'er is naturally familiar with Wu Sidao. Like Zhu Yicheng, Li Juan'er has never regarded Wu Sidao as an ordinary subject and has always respected him very much. Moreover, Wu Sidao is now the crown prince's teacher, who is in charge of the Royal Academy and has a transcendent status.
"The Empress is joking. When I am sailing, I can only read books and pass the time." Wu Sidao said with a smile, and then his eyes turned to Bo Zhu: "I saw that the Crown Prince was excited. What? Did you get something when I went to watch the ship just now?"
"Mr. I'm right. My mother took me to see the Thundership and went to the artillery room to see the cannon. Although Mr. told me during his lecture before, I never thought that this giant cannon would look like this, which is really different from what I imagined."
Bo Zhu? These words immediately made Li Juaner and Wu Sidao laugh at the same time. Wu Sidao nodded and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is right. It is better to see at first sight than to hear a hundred times. This is what is called reading a thousand books is worse than traveling thousands of miles. You will be able to understand it yourself."
Bo Zhu tilted his head and thought for a while, then bowed to Wu Sidao: "What Mr. said is very true. I only understood these principles today. Please teach me more in the future."
"The prince is smart, I should do this!" Wu Sidao nodded with great relief.
As the Grand Tutor, Wu Sidao was very satisfied with his student. Although Zhu Bo? Although he was young, he was not only extremely smart, but also had good behavior. He was an excellent student. This was extremely rare for a royal child, especially the crown prince of the country.
