The carved wooden pattern was moved to the stone table, and several people looked around and left. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yan Su said: "This look, placed in front of the screen in the living room, is a good piece of furniture." ”

"This furniture is a bit expensive, but I'm afraid that ordinary rich and noble people can't afford it." Xu Ping shook his head. "Wouldn't it be better to be in front of the screen if it was placed in front of the screen?"

Chu Yan walked around the wooden sample, looked left and right, and said with a somewhat regretful tone: "It's good to put it at home, but it's on the bell and drum tower, so it's not good." It is best to make the carved disc visible on all sides, so as to save people from going around. ”

"Don't talk about the engraved plates on all sides, when the time comes, you really have to make the carved pendulum on the bell and drum tower, and add a few villains to go up, and let the villains beat the drum when the time comes. Add a few bells and strike the bell when it's time. As long as it's big, it's easy to do. ”

Xu Ping's pendulum clock in his previous life was still ringing on the hour, and he could still set an alarm clock. As long as the timing system is determined, adding those institutions is a trivial matter.

The two most important aspects of a watch are a chronograph system and an escapement.

Since ancient times, China has had a tradition of making astronomical instruments and guide cars, and the escapement mechanism has developed in an orderly manner. The truly complete escapement in history was made by Su Song, a child who is now standing next to Yan Su, and it was from this era. But now it was proposed by Xu Ping, the structure is more elaborate and the action is more reliable. However, it is a timing system, and the main force in China has always been all kinds of leaks, and hourglasses and water leaks are the mainstay. The larger the timing machine, the more accurate it is, and the small hourglass can only be approximated. Europeans used hairsprings early on, and when escapements developed, their watch industry flourished and occupied the market.

The pendulum clock is more stupid, which is not conducive to carrying around, as Yan Su said, like a little more furniture. If a hairspring is made and used as a timekeeper, then a pocket watch or even a watch is not a dream.

Xu Ping looked at Sun Qilang and Li Shengrong who were standing side by side, this work, I was afraid that I would have to rely on them more.

The pendulum clock is out, the principle of the hairspring is not difficult, the key is the delicacy of the craft. The material can really be connected to bronze, but how to make and assemble it is not the same at all.

Stretching his waist, Xu Ping said to everyone: "It's too early, let's go outside for a walk and rest." ”

After speaking, he walked out of the gazebo first.

It was impossible to go under the sun, and along the earthen embankment that connected the pavilion, several people went to the shade of the large tree next to it.

Pan Pan and Xiuxiu were kicking shuttlecocks under the shade of the tree, and when they saw Xu Ping coming, Pan Pan ran up and grabbed Xu Ping's hand, and said, "Daddy, Daddy, you come and play with me!" ”

Xu Ping touched his daughter's head and said with a smile: "Girl's things, how can Daddy play with you?" ”

"Why is it a girl's house? The black tiger is here, and he will kick the shuttlecock with me! ”

Xu Ping was so entangled by Panpan that he had no choice but to say to the people who followed: "Everyone, sitting for a long time is not good for your health, let's move around." But it's really boring to kick flowers alive like this, how about a competition? ”

Pan Pan looked up at Xu Ping and said, "Daddy, how do you compare?" ”

"Pull the net in the middle, and on one side is a team, kicking the shuttlecock to the opposite side. Which side of the shuttlecock lands, the other side gets a point, and the one with the most points wins, how? ”

Panpan felt that his skills had improved in the past few days, and he clapped his hands again and again. Turn to look at the crowd and choose the one that is on your side. Yan Su is an old man, he was excluded from it first, Wei Pu couldn't open his eyes, and naturally he couldn't. looked at the past, pointed at Su Song and said, "This young man looks energetic, so he is on the same team as me and Daddy!" ”

There were really few entertainment activities in this era, and a few people in Yansu joined in with a smile. Usually there is nothing at home, they sometimes kick a few kicks, and the activity of kicking shuttlecock is not unfamiliar, Chu Yan is still a master.

Xu Ping took his daughter Panpan, as well as Su Song and Guo Jian on one side, Yan Su, Chu Yan, Jia Xian and Xiuxiu on the other side, Sun Qilang and Li Shengrong as judges. Wei Pu's eyes were not good, so he could only sit idly on the side.

Xu Ping and Guo Jian stood in the back row, leaving Panpan and Su Song in the front row.

Panpan was bent on winning, and seeing that Su Song, who was standing beside him, was afraid of life, he was a little cowering, and shouted to him: "This brother, look at your trembling appearance, but you can't!" You have to be like me, keep your head up! ”

Su Song saw Panpan raising his head and chest, looking lively, looking at him with a pair of big eyes, so he had to nod again and again: "What the little lady said is that I will be careful." ”

Seeing that Su Song said yes again and again, but his body couldn't let go even more, Panpan laughed out loud.

Su Song became more and more shy, and he couldn't raise his head.

Here the two of them were the youngest, and everyone watched from the side, and couldn't help laughing together.

On the opposite side, Yan Su and Xiuxiu stood in the front row, looked at the appearance of Panpan and Su Song, and greeted each other while smiling.

Yan Su bowed his hand to Xiuxiu: "In Xia Yansu, he is now a colleague of Tianzhang Pavilion and Xu Waiting." ”

Xiuxiu saluted: "The folk girl Ren Yingnan." ”

Yan Su nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Aren't you Miss Xiuxiu who went to Lingnan with Xu Beiji?" ”

Xiuxiu was silent for a while before saying, "Exactly." ”

"Oh, it's you!" Yan Su nodded again and again, "A few days ago, Fan Lang Lu played a sarcastic performance, saying that there was a little lady Liu in the local area, who died when Xu was waiting to rule Yongzhou, and the local people built temples to worship, and there were many fulfillments, and they asked the court to give them a seal. You are also mentioned in the recital, and the locals miss you a lot, and they don't want to meet you today. ”

Xiuxiu didn't know what to say for a while, but over the past year, everything in the past has become more and more like a big dream, and every time I think about it, I have a feeling of unreality. But I don't want the locals in Yongzhou to remember her, and I want to set up her statue to accompany Liu Xiaomei. When Xiuxiu was in Yongzhou, she was young and didn't make any big contributions to the locals in Yongzhou, but she just loved the house and Wu, and the locals were grateful for the earth-shaking changes that Xu Ping brought there, and this feeling moved to Xiuxiu.

Seeing that Xiuxiu didn't speak, Yan Su sighed: "The little lady herself may not know that you are like a god in the eyes of the people in Yong Lang Road. They want to build a temple and let you accompany Liu Xiaoniang. In Fan Yuanjun's recital, when it comes to all kinds of miracles of Liu Xiaoniang, you are often by your side. ”

Xiuxiu smiled bitterly: "I'm an ordinary folk girl, where is the god." ”

"The gods are human hearts, and when they win the hearts of people, all kinds of miracles will naturally come out. The sage Shinto taught and borrowed the teachings of the gods, so how could he really get any blessings from the gods? But then again, that little lady of the gods in Yongzhou really doesn't have much to do with you anymore. ”

Xiuxiu doesn't understand these big truths, she only knows that her days in Yongzhou are very happy, although she is a little lonely and often homesick, but she always grows up carefree. Until Liu Xiaomei's sister died suddenly by her side, everything suddenly changed, and she grew up overnight.

Liu Xiaomei's death has nothing to do with Xiuxiu, but in her heart, she always feels that Liu Xiaomei unfortunately lost her life in order to save herself, just like a thorn in her heart. With the passage of time, this feeling has slowly faded, and Xiuxiu thinks that one day it will disappear from her heart. When Yan Su mentioned it today, he felt that he still felt a faint pain in his heart. Some memories, even if they are thousands of lifetimes, cannot be erased.

Seeing that Xiuxiu suddenly fell silent, Yan Su knew that it had caused her to have something on her mind, so she stopped talking, just shook her head and sighed again and again.

For scholars who read the books of sages, they have a kind of overlooking attitude towards the gods. For my use of God, can lead the people to the good for God, otherwise it is a ghost, a monster, dare to show up and cut with a sword, folk sacrifice is obscenity, must be strictly prohibited.

There are crocodiles in Chaozhou, and Han Yu wrote "Crocodile Wen" to warn crocodiles to leave his rule. went to Chen Yaozuo, directly rewrote "Killing Crocodiles", and caught crocodiles and ate them all over the county.

If you need it, the gods can create it, and if you don't need it, you can spread it vividly or erase it at once. This attitude towards Buddhism has been held since the time of Taizu, and under the influence of Zhou Shizong's destruction of Buddhism, he once wanted to wipe out Buddhism under his rule. It was only when Buddhism was well-behaved and took the initiative to move closer to the imperial court and help consolidate the rule of the regime among the lower classes of the people that it slowly developed again. It wasn't until Zhenzong needed to use the Book of Heaven to cover up his dissatisfaction in the two wars against the Khitan and the Dangxiang that Buddhism and Taoism ushered in a period of vigorous development.

Xu Ping first built a temple for Liu Xiaomei, which was an unconscious move, and he didn't think deeply about it at the time. When Fan Wei was in charge of Yong Langlu, he began to take the initiative to promote, with the help of this man-made god, to consolidate the rule of the imperial court.

Liu Xiaomei has been by Xu Ping's side in the last few years, and it was in Xu Ping's hands that she defeated the local chieftain who had been inherited for hundreds of years, and turned the soil into Ding. Fan Wei's choice of Liu Xiaomei was not a random decision.

Although Yonglang Road is the homeland of the Tang Dynasty, it is now a new opening, even if Yongzhou was under the rule of the imperial court before, in fact, a large number of confined states are still outside the country. In addition to the strengthening of various imperial court officials, ideological cohesion is also an important means of governance. The so-called Shinto religion, and the establishment of the righteous god by the imperial court is an important means of education.

Xiuxiu just coincided with the meeting, and all kinds of miracles will naturally be deliberately publicized by the local government, and the more they spread, the more divine they become. Yu Jing is in charge of Taiping Prefecture, and the truth in this is naturally very clear, so he will take the initiative to ask the court for a seal.

But Xiuxiu is always a little confused, I don't know how things came to this point, I am in Yongzhou, but I have never felt this way. At that time, the days were always uneventful, and more than six years passed in one fell swoop. I didn't expect to be away for more than a year, and I actually started to enjoy the fireworks in the world?

(Note: Miss was a term for lowly women at the time, such as courtesans, maidservants, palace maids, concubines, etc., and was not derogatory, but it was rarely used to refer to women who really made a living from special businesses.) The scope of use actually roughly coincides with those women who still use names like Shishi, Xinu, Rou'er, and Chun Tao when they are adults. Xiuxiu is her name, and when she grows up, her parents and Xu Ping's family can call her like this, but others don't call her that. (To be continued.) )
