1156 Science and Technology Clearing Division
Although Song Yingxing had such doubts in his heart, he saw the official who was visiting him and heard that he had made some hot air balloons. Whether it was listening or watching, the information fed back from Xu Zhengming seemed to be a great thing, which made all his thoughts go over, and the doubts in his heart were naturally abandoned.
Xu Zhengming happily walked towards the manor with Emperor Chongzhen, chattering and talking nonstop, depicting the experience he gained from making hot air balloons. Beside them, Song Yingxing was the only one who was besides the imperial concubine and the guard. He was also attracted by the content of the conversation, listened with his ears, and wrote a note on his notebook from time to time.
As for the other people who came out of the village, they ran a strange journey and then followed the team at the end of the team, lowering their voices and muttering about the age of the owner Xu.
Anyway, the road to the manor is very lively, just like before.
Halfway through, Xu Zhengming's wife and children arrived, and he was polite again and insisted on kneeling and kowtowing. The stubbornness showed the shadow of Xu Zhengming's insistence on becoming a disciple. He said with constant reasons, "The benefactor of their family, the master like a father, and the Bodhisattva who saved the suffering from suffering in his family, made Emperor Chongzhen have no choice but to make Concubine Tian cover her mouth and laugh, and in the end she could only fulfill their intentions."
When he entered the manor, Xu Zhengming directly took Emperor Chongzhen to his test site. At this time, the Jinyiwei began to be alert, and all unrelated people were blocked outside. Of course, Song Yingxing was not blocked, which made him very happy.
What they went to was a large yard. In this yard, there should have been a rockery pond or something, and it was a large ornamental yard. However, now they have been renovated. There are even sheds in half of the places, and there are various small workshops, which seem to be in cooperation with each other.
Song Yingxing looked at everything in this big yard with some curiosity. The most important thing seemed to be a large piece of cloth in the middle, and a big basket was tied underneath, as if there was something special...
Song Yingxing had traveled many times and thought that he was a rare literati among the Ming Dynasty. But he wondered what was on the ground? He just heard it all the way, and he felt a little divine, and it was buoyant, flying and so on. He didn't understand it very well. This made Carpenter Xu so excited and said to his master like a treasure. It was not a carpenter's thing. Could it be that he was a disciple and a tailor?
But it doesn't seem to be like a tailor! Song Yingxing was a little confused. The content they talked about was different from what the craftsmen said before. Later, Song Yingxing unexpectedly discovered that Carpenter Xu had found some book from where he opened it and was discussing it with the young man. Of course, it was basically him asking and the young man answering. From the perspective of him, the young man seemed to be knowledgeable, and basically, there was nothing he didn't understand. Carpenter Xu could answer casually as long as he asked.
Listening to the novel discussion content, Song Yingxing next to him felt a little familiar. Suddenly, he finally remembered it. So he quickly greeted the book boy who was already a little restrained and stood by, took out the set of scientific and technological knowledge series from his back, and quickly found one and flipped it out. Sure enough, it was related to this physics knowledge.
This time, Song Yingxing became even more curious. Originally, he thought that this young man was like those scholars who were not as good as ancient times. Although the misunderstanding was a little solved, he still did not expect that this young man was so proficient in science and technology! He had just read it through it, and he still had many doubts about it, and he was thinking of arguments or experimenting according to what the book said. Unexpectedly, this young man actually walked ahead of him, had already understood these books, and taught Carpenter Xu!
Thinking of this, he had the idea of having to have a good chat with this young man. His intuition told him that this young man would be of great help to the book he was about to write!
With this idea, when Xu Zhengming and the young man were almost in conversation, Song Yingxing didn't care about being polite and impolite, and immediately interrupted and asked, "Master Xu, can this book be borrowed from Song Mouyi?"
"Hey, who are you?" Xu Zhengming looked up and down at Song Yingxing, and it seemed that he had only realized that this person seemed to be an outsider.
His question immediately made Song Yingxing a little stunned. When he was outside the village just now, your master introduced me. It turned out that your master was full of your mind at that time, and he was thinking of presenting treasures to your master, so he didn't care about me, Mr. Song at all!
Emperor Chongzhen next to him also thought of this and couldn't help but feel a little speechless with his disciple. But perhaps it was his persistence in this technology that allowed him to persevere and persevere!
Thinking of this, he smiled and reintroduced them to both of them again.
Xu Zhengming came to his senses at this time, and couldn't help but reach out and scratch the back of his head, saying a little embarrassedly: "I really didn't mean it. I'm going to ask the master for advice in my mind!"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and gave the book in his hand to Song Yingxing and said, "I didn't expect that the juren also wanted to read such a book. You are the first one, give it!"
As soon as Song Yingxing saw it, he hurriedly took it over and looked at it. He immediately found that the book in his hand was more profound than the book he had obtained before. It seemed... it seemed like this was the subsequent deepening content of the book he had obtained.
After seeing this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He looked up at Xu Zhengming and asked quickly: "Where did you come from? How could you get this set of books?"
When Xu Zhengming saw the praise of this set of books and envy of himself in Song Yingxing's eyes, he said with a little pride: "Of course this was given to me by my master."
Upon hearing this, Song Yingxing immediately turned to look at Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Prince Zhu, where did this book come from? Can you tell Song? Or... or borrow Song for three days, no, two days are enough, I can copy it myself?"
Seeing him excitedly, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile and said, "I wrote it myself, you don't need to copy it. You can do as much as you want!"
"What?" Song Yingxing was stunned when he heard this. He soon came to his senses and looked suspicious, "You wrote it yourself? No, no, I don't mean that, I mean, who wrote this book, not copied it."
In his opinion, Emperor Chongzhen is so young and his knowledge is so profound, how could it be his original creation!
Concubine Tian next to him couldn't help but smile when she heard the juren's question. But they quickly came to their senses and thought about it carefully, why did the emperor be so young but know so many things? How many people can believe it if they say it? Those great scholars in the court were not as shocked by the emperor's talent at the beginning like this juren!
Emperor Chongzhen was also a little numb to this kind of question. But based on his favorable impression of Song Yingxing, he still explained: "If you refer to this world, you should be the first one I wrote it out, not copied from someone else!"
No one can understand the meaning of his words, but can only be understood as the words he said proved that he was original, not copied.
When Song Yingxing heard this, he was shocked. He did not expect that these profound knowledge would actually come from this young man himself!
Xu Zhengming, who was beside him, proudly interrupted and said, "What are these? You have never seen my master's power. It is incredible that we humans can fly in the sky, right? But my master can tell at least three methods. Well, this kind of hot air balloon method is just one of what my master said. Let's look back and see the miracle that we humans can fly in the sky!"
Song Yingxing heard it, but seemed to have not heard it. At this time, he suddenly came to his senses. Because he knew that if the scientific and technological knowledge was to be said in the Ming Dynasty, the emperor is the second most, and others cannot be the first. But this young man is so proficient in scientific and technological knowledge!
By the way, this young man himself introduced him and said that his name is Zhu Youjian. Could it be that he misunderstood. He...he...he is Zhu Youjian. Is he really the emperor today?
Thinking of this, Song Yingxing opened his mouth in shock without knowing it. Looking at the young man in front of him, his heart was like a storm. He was so young, about the same age as the emperor, and there were so many followers. Could it be... Could it be that he is really the emperor today?
In places like Jiangnan, I suddenly met passers-by, which are the current emperors, and such things can only happen in my family’s words. In fact, how many emperors would have the opportunity to go to Jiangnan in the past few years? How could they go on a patrol in a condom when going to Jiangnan?
Although the emperor has once, among the countless people, the probability of meeting the emperor is really lower than the probability of becoming a Jinshi.
Song Yingxing came back to his senses and was about to verify again when he suddenly heard someone come over and report, "Master, Xu Zhengmao, the eunuch of Yingtianfu, asks for a meeting."
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he casually said, "He has a good news, let him come in!"
Needless to say, there are people from Xu Zhengmao here. Others don’t know, but Xu Zhengmao knows that Xu Zhengming’s master is today. When this master comes, it means that the emperor has arrived in Yingtian Mansion in a conspicuous manner, so he naturally rushed over immediately.
Xu Zhengming was also a little confused at this time. Although he was accompanied by his master's letter and was arranged to do things here after he was accompanied by his master's servant, from beginning to end, he just thought that his master had a good relationship with the eunuch in the Yingtian Mansion.
But at this moment, he realized that it seemed that the status of the eunuch in Yingtian Mansion was lower than that of the master, and he needed to ask for a look. Who is the master?
Unlike Xu Zhengming, Song Yingxing was a juren at least, and he also knew a lot about the affairs in the officialdom. Those who could make the eunuchs in Yingtianfu ask for a meeting at the door, plus what he had just thought, Song Yingxing immediately understood the identity of the young man in front of him.
This time, he was really shocked. He happened to meet the emperor who visited him in a private manner, and... and he even chatted all the way!
Just as they were surprised and shocked, a rosy eunuch Xiaosai walked in. Before he could reach Emperor Chongzhen, he knelt down and worshiped: "I, Xu Zhengmao, the eunuch in Yingtian Prefecture, bow to my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"
Hearing this, Song Yingxing could no longer stand and was also extremely excited to kneel down to salute. He knew in his heart that his chance had come.
Only the carpenter Xu Zhengming was a little foolish and stood there in surprise and asked, "Master, are you... you are the current emperor?"
As if in response to his words, another Jinyiwei entered the room and reported: "Master, Sun Chuanting, the temporary acting governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong provinces, requested an audience at the door!"
Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen said to the two kneeling and said, "Flat!"
Then he turned around and said to the two concubines beside him: "I have something to deal with, so let's go and rest first!"
Concubine Tian and Hai Lanzhu naturally had no objection, so they were immediately led by the eunuch of the landlord to rest. Then, Emperor Chongzhen ordered: "Tell him to meet Sun Qing."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to go to the lobby next to him. Suddenly he remembered something, and then said to Song Yingxing, who was a little restrained, and said, "I am going to set up a new Science and Technology Clearance Office in addition to the Four Cleansing Offices Departments under the Ministry of Works. You will be the doctor of the Science and Technology Clearance Offices Department. Are you willing?"
According to the current Qing Lishu, the position of the doctor is the fifth rank, and it is placed in the local area, which is the level of a prefect. At present, Song Yingxing only has the fame of the Juren. Generally speaking, there are no special circumstances. For example, in addition to the special circumstances in Liaodong, the Juren can only be the county magistrate of a lower-class county. In this way, it has to be short and has to be related. But now, the emperor has to promote Song Yingxing to a fifth-rank central official position with just one decision, which is more important than the prefect. After all, how many prefects are there in the world? There is only one Qing Lishu that belongs to the Ministry of Works. This shows that Emperor Chongzhen attaches importance to Song Yingxing.
If it were a normal person, he would not be overjoyed when he heard this reward and would quickly thank him.
However, after Song Yingxing was overjoyed, hesitated for a while, which made Emperor Chongzhen, who was about to turn around and walk to the lobby, stunned. What does it mean? Still not satisfied?
Just as he was thinking, he saw Song Yingxing proclaiming: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask, what does this Qingjie Department do?"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen realized that he was worried about whether he could be competent! Haha, he did not read the wrong person, Song Yingxing was not a utilitarian.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen replied with a smile: "This Science and Technology Clearance Department, according to my idea, is to manage the scientific and technological theory research of the Ming Dynasty. Most craftsmen from all walks of life only apply, but do not know the reason. Or they only know what they have learned and will not further research. In short, this Science and Technology Clearance Department hopes to have a summary of science and technology and conduct extensive research, forming a system that can transform knowledge into practical applications from basic to advanced. Are you willing to assume a major responsibility for the strength of the Ming Dynasty?"
