"Start heating up."

"The horses are ready."

"The turner is in place, and as soon as the horse team exerts its strength, it immediately pedals with all its might."

I don't know if it's because Li Longji and Concubine Wu Hui are present, Lu Ping is as excited as if he has been beaten with chicken blood, jumping up and down, giving orders at the same time, and he is not idle for a moment.

About a quarter of an hour later, everything was ready, Zhuang Sanyi pushed Laxuan, steamed piston to do work, twelve horses and twenty-four lathe workers at the same time, the horse was pulling, the lathe worker was like stepping on a bicycle, only to see the train first like a normal person running forward, as the piston continued to push vigorously, manpower, animal power also continued to exert force, the speed of the train is getting faster and faster, and it is about to catch up with the speed of the horse.

It's a pity that the pre-laid railway is less than three miles, and it soon ran to the end, Lu Ping designed a track that turns the direction of the train in a circle, and at the request of Zheng Peng, he followed the test, this test is a manned test, let some slave laborers get on the train to ride, which is a real test.

After the slave laborers finished sitting, Li Longji saw that there was no danger, and accompanied by Zheng Peng, Lu Ping and the guards, he took the train himself.

After sitting down, Li Longji said happily: "Not bad, not bad, aside from the speed, it is very stable, there is no bumpy feeling, not bad, not bad." ”

The stability and speed of the train in an ideal state brought Li Longji an unimaginable feeling, especially with so many people in the same carriage, which was an unprecedented experience.

Since the Qin Dynasty, the Son of Heaven's special dragon chariot has regulations, by six horses to ride, the dragon chariot by the most skilled craftsmen, large volume, a large amount of fur for cushioning, sitting up very comfortable, but the speed is not fast, and the dragon chariot is only limited to his own ride, the stability of the train makes him sigh praise.

"The emperor is right, the train is indeed magical, but unfortunately the experience time is shorter, and the concubines haven't had time to experience it well, it has run to the end." Concubine Wu Hui echoed.

Zheng Peng immediately said: "Now it's just a test, the first phase of Changluo Road has been completed, what we need to do now is to lay the rails with all our might, and then you can take the train from Chang'an to Luoyang, the train is not perfect at this stage, Weichen can guarantee that the development of the train in the future will exceed the imagination of the emperor and Niangniang." ”

The railway looks better than the horse-drawn carriage, it is a new mode of transportation, giving the people of Datang one more choice to travel, it is likely that the novelty is greater than the practicality, but for Datang, its significance is far more than a little convenience that you see in front of you.

In the future generations of the car as an example, the people overthrew the three mountains, the establishment of a new China, the waste of the rejuvenation, the people lived in poverty, in the food and clothing has not been solved, the country began to consciously develop the car industry, soon also legislated to the car industry as a national pillar industry, the reason is very simple, the development of the car industry, can drive the development of industries such as rubber, steel, glass, petroleum, chemical, textile, electronics, etc., almost covering all industries of the national economy, providing a large number of jobs, whether it is for the country, It's still good for the people.

What Zheng Peng wants to do is to drive the development of ironmaking, infrastructure, finishing and other aspects through a train, so as to promote the comprehensive leap of Datang technology, and the train will also make the exchanges between the two places more frequent and close, which can activate and promote the development of the commodity market.

It's just that you can't see the benefits for a while, as long as you lay a solid foundation, there will always be a day of accumulation.

Li Longji opened his mouth and asked: "Zheng Aiqing, just now you said that the train is still imperfect, in your heart, what kind of state will it be if it is perfect?" ”

There are many problems exposed now, but the potential is visible to the naked eye, and Li Longji is also interested for a while.

Zheng Peng thought for a while, and quickly said: "Twelve hours a day can be dispatched around the clock, not all the sun and rain, fog and snow, do not rely on manpower and animal power, only use the steamer to drive, a transport of more than 1,000 people, the speed is faster than the sweat and blood BMW, not only fast, but also stable, for example, put a cup of tea when the car starts, after the end point, the tea does not pour and spill." ”

"Faster than birds, more stable than eighteen sedan chairs, can carry a thousand people at a time, the idea is good, is it possible to achieve it?" Li Longji was a little fascinated when he heard this, and then asked his own questions.

"As long as you keep improving, you can definitely do it." Zheng Peng said confidently.

Li Longji was infected by Zheng Peng's arrogance, and said happily: "With this determination, I believe that with Zheng Aiqing's intelligence, I will definitely be able to do it." ”

"Champion, Hongu is looking forward to the next ride." Concubine Wu Hui also opened her mouth to express her position.

Li Longji and Concubine Wu Hui both spoke, how dare Zheng Peng refute it, and said yes again and again.

The group talked while walking, and soon came to a pavilion, Concubine Wu Hui went to the thatched house surrounded by palace maids and guards, and there were only two people in the pavilion, Li Longji and Zheng Peng.

Li Longji looked at the busy construction site and suddenly sighed.

This exclamation came suddenly, Zheng Peng hesitated, and asked, "Your Majesty is worried about political affairs?" ”

sighed for no reason, there are two people here, Zheng Peng can't even open his mouth if he wants to, knowing what Li Longji is sighing, he can be regarded as knowingly asking.

"Family matters."

Sure enough, he was worried about the death of his three sons, Zheng Peng opened his mouth to persuade a few words, but when the words came to his mouth, it seemed that it was not appropriate to say anything, the dead were the greatest, and now it is not right to say theirs, it doesn't seem right, Li Longji gave his son to death, he can't say right or wrong, it's not appropriate to say anything anyway, and Li Longji defined this matter as a family matter, and it is difficult for a clean official to judge family affairs, not to mention that this family is still royal, and it is not appropriate to say anything anyway.

Li Longji seemed to understand Zheng Peng's difficulties, and said to himself: "Ordinary people, for two meals and one night, facing the loess with their backs to the sky, leaving early and returning late, some people were born in the emperor's family, and they have been clothed and fed since they were young, enjoying all the glory and wealth, why are they so dissatisfied?" ”

It was obviously the former prince Li Ying who said it, and Zheng Peng stood quietly aside without speaking.

Unless Li Longji wants to make his own statement, it is still golden to remain silent.

Li Longji obviously didn't want Zheng Peng to be just a listener, and suddenly said: "Zheng Aiqing, I want to amnesty the world, what do you think?" ”

This thinking jumped so fast, just now he was talking about the "three people", and when he talked about amnesty in the world, Zheng Peng was a little caught off guard.

"The emperor is kind-hearted, and the people must be grateful to Dade" Speaking of this, Zheng Peng said tactfully: "Your Majesty, even if you give amnesty to the world, don't let go of those who are treacherous and unrepentant, lest they harm the people again." ”

The Sanshuren incident, Li Longji handled it in the way of family affairs, but the controversy between the government and the opposition was very great, many courtiers and people felt that the death of the former prince Li Ying was full of suspicions, and Li Longji, who had given death to three sons and daughters, may feel that he had done something wrong, so he wanted to buy people's hearts with amnesty to the world, or find a peace in his heart?

Amnesty to the world is usually done on the emperor's intended birthday or when a major event occurs in the country, which is similar to the situation of many people in ancient times who "rushed to rejoice".

Li Longji said unexpectedly: "No, this amnesty to the world was requested by Concubine Hui, I was moved by Concubine Hui, weighed it again and again, and decided to fulfill her." ”

"It's... What does Concubine Hui want? Zheng Peng's eyes widened in surprise.

Amnesty to the world, I thought that Li Longji had killed his three sons, and he had regrets in his heart, so he used the amnesty to accumulate virtue and successfully win the hearts of the people, but he didn't expect him to be for Concubine Wu Hui.

Li Longji nodded lightly: "Concubine Hui has always been kind-hearted, and for the sake of those three rebels, she also interceded for them, and after the incident, she blamed herself for not being able to persuade me, and blamed herself for not getting along well with Concubine Li, so... Li Ying was resentful, restless in eating and sleeping, and the day before yesterday said that she would eat fast and become a monk to pray for the blessings of the three rebels, I was moved by Concubine Hui's benevolence and decided to grant amnesty to the world. ”

Sister Ni, I thought I was ashamed to kill my son, but I didn't expect to say it for a long time, it turned out to be for Concubine Wu Hui.

The Sanshu incident, obviously Concubine Wu Hui single-handedly planned, interceded for Li Ying and them, obviously retreating as advance, earning a good reputation, eating fast and praying for blessings, nine times out of ten it was to kill three people, I felt ashamed, I wanted to do something to make up for it, and asked for peace of mind, Li Longji even agreed to amnesty for Concubine Wu Hui, this is true love.

For Concubine Wu Hui, Li Longji is a good husband, but for Li Ying, he is by no means a good father.
