Chapter 383: Coal in place of charcoal
Kong Yingda trembled his hands and picked up Wan Minzhi. It doesn't matter if you look at it, Kong Yingda's face changed instantly. There is no longer the arrogance just now, but instead, there is a look of disbelief.
Although Kong Yingda is a corrupt Confucian, no matter what he does, he will not be flexible in his dogma. But in his heart, the honor of Confucianism is supreme and cannot be slandered by anyone.
So he wouldn't do anything at all that would damage the reputation of Confucianism. In other words, although Kong Yingda is stubborn, he is a person with a bottom line.
Never do anything that he thinks is insulting to the sages. is corrupt and perverts the law, and he has absolutely nothing to do with him.
But he never expected that the two brothers of the Dong family would do so many things that hurt nature and reason.
I saw Kong Yingda trembling his hands and closing the form of all the people. Then knelt in front of Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, it is the minister who has no eyes, and he has seen him wrong, Dong Wanche." At the beginning, he was still a minister and introduced him to the emperor. The sin of the unknown is to be recognized. ”
"Master Confucius, the teachings of Confucianism have taught the world for thousands of years, and if they had no merit, they would have been eliminated by this society long ago."
"But now there are many people, dressed in the cloak of Confucianism, doing things that are not as good as pigs and dogs." Li Tai said to Kong Yingda.
"Thank you, King Wei, for shoveling out such scum for my Confucianism. Such people live in the world, they are insulting to the sages, and the emperor asks the emperor to put them to death. Kong Yingda said sincerely.
"Kong Aiqing, Li Tai is right, today's Confucianism should indeed be rectified. As the head of the Confucian sect, you should shoulder this responsibility. ”
"Tomorrow you will go to Luoyang and go to the prince to help him. By the way, Confucianism will be rectified. Li Shimin said to Kong Yingda.
Kong Yingda knelt on the ground again, saluted Li Shimin, and then said: "The minister obeys the order, the minister will definitely sort out the Confucianism, eradicate those Sven scum, and return the Confucianism to a clear state." ”
……
Li Tai, who returned to Mozhou City, was definitely in a good mood. This time, through the affairs of Dong Wanjun's brothers, Confucianism completely restrained its arrogance.
This is also the result that Li Tai wants, and Li Tai knows that it is unrealistic to want Confucianism to disappear completely. Therefore, the result of Li Tai is to make Confucianism no longer dominant.
Only by suppressing the arrogance of Confucianism can other schools of thought reappear. In that way, it will not be far from the appearance of a hundred schools of thought again.
Looking at Li Tai's smiling face, Xuanhua smiled and said to Li Tai: "I thought of something good, I was so happy." Is it prepared to accept the oiran brought by Sui Mingyang. ”
"What nonsense, I have the three of you, and I'm already satisfied. How can you think about other people again? But I'll tell you how you're doing. After Li Taibai glanced at Xuanhua, he said to Xuanhua.
After Xuanhua put down the teacup in his hand, he stood behind Li Tai, pinched Li Tai's shoulders and said, "This Qingyun is very weird, although I haven't found any bad intentions now. But my gut tells me that there is definitely something wrong with her. ”
"When I was in Yangzhou, I felt that she definitely had something to hide. That's why I sent her to Mozhou City. Because it's here that you can best monitor her, and at the same time, you can also let her show her fox tail. Li Tai patted Xuanhua's hand and said.
She went deep and simple every day, and rarely did anything other than play the piano and write. And the popularity is quite good, if it goes on like this for a long time. I'm afraid she will win more people's hearts. Xuanhua said worriedly.
"I'm back, and her days of hypocrisy are coming to an end. I have a way to get her to show her real fox tail. Li Tai said to Xuanhua with a smile.
After Li Tai finished speaking, he got up and took Xuanhua's hand and walked slowly towards the bed. Then he said with a wicked smile: "It's been a long time since I've slept with you, and I really miss it very much." ”
"When did you learn to be so colorful, it seems that the next time you go out, you should let your sisters follow you. Otherwise, you may learn badly at some point. Xuanhua pointed his finger at Li Tai's forehead and said with a smile.
……
Yin'an Temple.
Li Tai sat on the Yin'an Palace, and the civil and military generals of Mozhou City lined up on both sides. Li Tai opened his mouth and said to everyone, "During the period of this king's absence, how has Mozhou City developed. ”
"Back to my lord, according to the drawings you left behind when you left, we have developed the train. Railroad tracks have also been laid, but not very quickly. Gao Ping got up and said to Li Tai.
"The reason why the speed can't be raised is probably the fuel problem, and now you are using wood combustion to produce steam. This not only consumes wood, but also does not have enough firepower. Li Tai said to Gao Ping.
"What the lord said is right, I have followed the lord's explanation. Someone has been sent to find a large amount of carboniferous ore in Yunzhou. Shen Yunfei got up and said to Li Tai.
"Now that the carboniferous ore has been discovered, can you arrange for someone to mine it?" Li Tai asked Shen Yunfei.
"We have already begun to arrange people to mine, and we have also received strong support from Yunzhou Thorn History. Some of them have now been shipped back. It's just that it hasn't been put into use yet. Shen Yunfei said to Li Tai.
"My lord, I have seen the charcoal you are talking about. It's just a black stone, so what's the point? Cheng Tieniu got up and said to Li Tai.
"Now I am in the Tang Dynasty and used to using charcoal for sex. Little is known about the usefulness of coal. However, the heat source and fire power brought by this charcoal cannot be reached by charcoal in any way. Li Tai said to Cheng Tieniu with a smile.
"Lord, when you say this, everyone doesn't quite understand. It's better for us to go directly to the site to operate, that will definitely be more convincing. Shen Yunfei said to Li Tai with a smile.
Of course, Shen Yunfei had already tried, using coal-refining pig iron to make a blade. The firepower generated by it is much higher than that of firewood.
Hearing Sheng Yunfei's words, Li Tai nodded, and led everyone out of Yin'an Hall and went to the location where the train was parked in Mozhou City.
Now in the city of Mozhou, according to Li Tai's requirements, the railroad tracks have been laid. Of course, there is still a big difference between the rails laid now and the rails of later generations.
After all, technologically, it is not yet as advanced. The main thing is that the current train speed is not that fast at all. So the requirements for rails are naturally not so high.
Under the leadership of Gao Ping, Li Tai visited the first train of Datang. After reading it, Li Tai nodded with satisfaction.
Although it is a little nondescript, it can generally meet Li Tai's requirements. So under the command of Li Tai, in the boiler of the locomotive, the charcoal was ignited.
In the beginning, the charcoal naturally did not have as much fire power as firewood. But slowly everyone found out. At this time, the fire generated by charcoal is not only greater than that of wood, but also lasts much longer than that of wood.
