Great Tang princess

Chapter 597 An Accident in the Sky
Li Yuechen is very clear that it is difficult to cultivate great leaders, so the direction from the beginning is to improve their lower limit instead of cultivating geniuses.

In fact, it is very difficult to cultivate a true genius. After all, talent is more of an innate product. If you are not born, there is a high probability that you will not have it in the future.

Most of the people in this world are ordinary people, even the royal family.

Fortunately, Li Yuechen is gratified that the three views of these children are not bad, and his education has achieved initial results.

The shaping of a person's three views is mainly in the adolescent period. As long as the education is done during this period, no matter what you do in the future, you will have a steelyard in your heart.

The most important thing is that these children of the royal family lived outside the palace since they were young, so they are quite down-to-earth and not easy to be fooled.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of November. With the complete completion of the landing pad and the shipyard, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time couldn't help feeling a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.

Looking at the huge shipyard nearly four stories high in front of them, the craftsmen and civilians couldn't help but feel a little proud when they thought that they had their own strength in it.

Not to mention them, even those captives who were specially sent to do coolie work are a bit incredible. It is hard to imagine that such a huge building was actually responsible for the manufacture.

In order to reward these craftsmen and folk husbands, Li Yuechen also specially held a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and then gave certain rewards to everyone in charge of this project, which was regarded as a year-end award.

Even the captives who worked as coolies were arranged a lunch with beef, which made many people feel grateful for eating, and tears flowed down their cheeks into the food.

But they didn't seem to notice it, and they ate the food drenched in tears with big mouthfuls.

Although I can often eat some minced meat and the like on weekdays, this thumb-sized beef cube is indeed the only one I have seen in my life, and everyone can get four or five pieces.

In the cafeteria, looking at the captives squatting in the corner eating, Li Chongrun felt puzzled: "Auntie, they are all captives. I should be grateful for giving them minced meat on weekdays. Why give them beef?"

Li Yuechen turned his head to look, and said with a slight smile: "You have to understand that as a leader, you must be clear about rewards and punishments. This is the majesty that a leader should have..."

To be the boss must have the appearance of a boss. If the reward and punishment are not clear, it is better not to reward and not punish.

If the one who did something in the end was punished, and the bastard who didn't do anything was rewarded instead, then this boss will definitely not last long.

Moreover, with the future development, it is inevitable to change from the slave system to the contract system, so it is very important to give them a sample in advance.

These children were very willing to listen to what Li Yuechen said, and they all nodded to express that they remembered it.

……

Now almost everything that needs to be done on the Qingdao side has been done, Li Yuechen plans to send people to Weihai and Dalian to build new military divisions in the next year, and expand the navy's number of defense lines.

At the same time, when Liu Zihe comes over after the year, he can set off on the current ship and go to the Americas to find crops such as potatoes and corn. The new Baidizi has been built and will officially enter service after the year.

Because the current shipyard itself is in the sea, the launching test does not need to be done separately, and the ship is already in the sea now.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is almost here, Li Yuechen felt that he should go back earlier this year and take more photos of his mother and his family.

So after arranging the things here, Li Yuechen boarded the airship going home at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, and brought a group of children back east to prepare for the New Year.

The airship lifted off slowly, the sky outside had just turned pale, and the sun had not yet filled the entire cabin.

The children who had already gotten used to the airship were not as excited as they were at the beginning, they all sat obediently on the chairs and waited for the flight to be stable.

Li Yuechen was wearing sunglasses, lying on a chair, closing his eyes and thinking about whether he needed to open a separate route from Qingdao to the northern border after the second airship was completed.

Because land reclamation is not something that can be done overnight, at least in the next ten years, if you want to support the army and population on the northern border, you still need to transport food from the interior.

Fortunately, Zhenzhou has three crops a year, and the output is high enough. The grain can be transported to Qingdao by sea first, and then transported to the northern border by airship.

At present, this work is done by the current airship, which is somewhat difficult, so it is better for the second airship to be responsible for this route alone.

Li Yuechen, who was thinking about it, was lying on a chair, simulating the future direction of the country's development in his mind.

"what!"

Hearing an exclamation from someone beside him suddenly, Li Yuechen opened his eyes and turned around to look, only to see that Li Xianhui, who was sitting not far away, suddenly had a nosebleed, and subconsciously called out.

Then Li Chongrun and Li Chongfu next to them both started to look for toilet paper on their bodies. Since this thing was made, most people would carry some with them.

"Aunt, Xianhui, she..."

"Get angry?" Li Yuechen asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Li Xianhui took the toilet paper handed by her brother, blocked her nose and shook her head, "I just feel a little dizzy..."

Just as he was talking, Li Longfan's voice sounded from behind: "Bring me some paper too, I'm bleeding too... vomit..."

Hearing these words, Li Yuechen turned his head and saw that Li Longfan who was sitting in the back had also started to bleed from his nose, retching while bleeding.

Seeing this scene, Li Yuechen's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that some plague broke out?
If this is the case, you must turn around immediately, and you cannot bring the virus to the eastern capital.

But now the airship is still in the process of ascending, and people are lying on the chairs, and it is easy to slip and fall if you untie the seat belt hastily.

At this moment, the airship began to stabilize slowly. The door of the cockpit opened, and a soldier rushed in without paying attention to the salute. He hurriedly said, "Your Highness, there are many nosebleeds in the cockpit..."

As soon as I said this, I saw Li Xianhui and Li Longfan who were bleeding from the nose, and didn't continue talking.

Li Yuechen was about to speak and order to turn around when he heard Li Longji's shout: "Auntie, Longfan's ears are starting to ooze blood!"

Turning his head, he saw that Li Longfan was retching with toilet paper plugging his nose, and at the same time there seemed to be signs of blood oozing from his ears.

No, not the plague!
Such a scene made Li Yuechen react suddenly, turned his head and shouted at the soldiers: "Lower the altitude!"

"Yes!"

The soldier agreed, turned and returned to the cockpit.

"Everyone sit down, don't move around!" Li Yuechen let everyone sit in their seats with a low voice.

Make no mistake, this is not the plague, it is altitude sickness!
Once humans reach altitudes above 3000 meters, they are prone to various physiological reactions due to the lack of oxygen.Bleeding from the nose and ears, also caused by loss of pressure in the body.

This kind of thing is not directly related to the strength of the body, but more on the ability of the blood to absorb and transport oxygen.

Some people look weak, but running and jumping on the plateau has no effect. Some people seem to be as strong as cattle, but it takes a lot of effort to walk on the plateau.

The limit altitude of airships is generally 5000 meters, but Li Yuechen, considering safety issues, told them from the beginning not to exceed 3000 meters.

After all, the materials and industrial capabilities of this era are not as good as the future, and there is no condition for cabin pressurization. It is for this reason that they are set at a height of 3000 meters from the beginning.

Because there is no altimeter in this era, it can only be judged according to experience, so the usual flight altitude is about [-] or so.

But now...

Li Yuechen tilted his head and glanced out of the window. Judging from experience, the height should have exceeded four thousand.

As the altitude gradually decreased, the symptoms of Li Xianhui and Li Longfan improved a lot. The toilet paper was blocked for a while, and the nosebleed gradually stopped.

Signs of dizziness and vomiting also gradually improved.

The moment the airship stabilized, Li Yuechen immediately unfastened his seat belt and walked towards the cab with a dark face.

The others also unfastened their seat belts and stood up. Li Chongrun took his sister to the back to find water to wash the blood on his face.

Li Yuechen entered the cockpit with a dark face, and as soon as he entered, he saw a few soldiers who were also dealing with the blood on their faces, and a few others were sitting on the chairs beside them, obviously not yet recovering.

Li Yuechen usually smiles wherever he goes, but today he was very angry from his expression. All the soldiers quickly stood up and saluted: "Your Highness!"

In normal times, Li Yuechen would have waved his hands with a smile and said no courtesy, but today he didn't say a word, and glanced at them with a pair of big black eyes.

With just a sweep like this, a group of soldiers on the opposite side shivered in unison and entered the ice cellar.

Since ancient times, in the army, the majesty of the commander is above all else. What the commander says is military law, not to mention Li Yuechen who has personally charged on the battlefield, even if she is staring at him, he will feel uncomfortable.

Besides, although Li Yuechen doesn't sit on the dragon chair now, she is an emperor in the actual sense, and she still has a trace of an emperor on her body. When she stares at her, she feels like being strangled by the neck.

"Is this interesting?"

Li Yuechen asked, his voice was not loud, and his tone was not heavy, but his usually ethereal voice felt chilly at this moment.

The soldier in charge of driving on the opposite side immediately bowed his head and saluted: "This subordinate is guilty!"

"You know what a ball!"

Li Yuechen suddenly shouted and cursed: "As the main driver and the captain of the boat, where is the safety of everyone? My old lady taught me to pay attention to the height, but I learned it from dogs? If something happened today and someone died on the boat, What should you do?!"

Everyone knew that Li Yuechen had almost never lost her temper since she was a child, and she didn't like to yell at others, but yelling so loudly today is enough to show how angry she is now.

"This subordinate is a capital crime! Please calm down, Your Highness!" The driver knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Capital crime?" Li Yuechen gritted his teeth and asked back, and then continued to yell: "Is it enough to kill you? If something happened today, and someone died on the boat, it would not be enough to punish your ten clans! My mother wants to strangle you right now!" kill you!"

Her roar was so loud that everyone in the cockpit felt stunned, and even everyone outside the cockpit could hear it very clearly.

Hearing that the ten clans were about to be punished, the driver visibly trembled.

Although there is such a saying about punishing the ten clans, there has never been such a crime since ancient times. Even if it is treason, at most it is just punishing the nine clans.

But what the princess said makes sense. Who are the people on the airship today?It can be said that the future of the royal family is on this. If something happens to them, it is really not too much to punish the ten clan.

Thinking about it carefully, if something happened to them, the emperor and his highnesses would be furious. I'm afraid it's not just the Zhu Shi clan, they might even be torn to pieces.

The driver hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, and cried out in a crying voice: "This subordinate would like to apologize with death, and I beg His Highness to spare the parents, wife and children at home..."

Seeing his pleading appearance, Li Yuechen took a deep breath, and walked a few steps on the spot with his waist in his hands.

Seeing a group of children standing outside the cabin door, she beckoned them to come in, and then asked, "Is it better?"

Li Xianhui nodded: "Don't worry, Auntie, it's all right now!"

Then Li Longfan also replied: "The nosebleed has stopped, and the bleeding is no longer in the ears, and I can still hear the sound."

Li Yuechen nodded slightly, and then asked, "Chongrun, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

There is a reason to ask him. First of all, he is not young anymore, and the three views have begun to be shaped.

Moreover, in the future when my mother abdicates, the plan is for the third brother Li Xian to succeed, so there is a high probability that Li Chongrun will become the future emperor. Asking him at this time is also a small test.

The slightly older children present could basically guess Li Yuechen's purpose, so they all turned their heads to look at Li Chongrun.

Being stared at by a group of people, Li Chongrun did not show any timidity at all. He just thought for a while, and then said: "From my nephew's point of view, the driver's position is of great responsibility. It is really abominable to make such a big mistake!"

Hearing these words, the driver who was kneeling on the ground trembled all over.

However, Li Chongrun's words were not finished: "But after all, there were no serious consequences, and Xianhui and Longfan did not have any sequelae. They are all comrades in the army, and it is not easy to train... Considering that they did not intend it, it is better to avoid it." Death penalty."

Li Yuechen was a little surprised by Li Chongrun's words, but also very relieved.

As the children of the royal family, if they can say that they are exempted from the death penalty at this time, it is enough to show that their education during this period is relatively successful.

"Xian Hui, Long Fan, what do you two say?" Li Yuechen asked.

Li Xianhui first said: "I agree with brother."

Li Longfan at the back smiled slightly: "My aunt always said that as a royal family, you have to learn to be strong, but it's just a bloodshed, I'm not afraid of it!"

Hearing this sentence, the other children around also nodded, expressing that they are also very strong and will not be afraid either.

Looking at these lovely children, Li Yuechen couldn't help but smile. These children have really been changed by her. They don't see the arrogance of a nobleman at all. At this moment, they all seem to be approachable.

Today's accident was an unintentional test for them, and the result of the test was that they passed!
Li Yuechen turned his head, pointed at a group of soldiers in the cockpit, and said, "Listen to my mother! Everyone, you will receive thirty military sticks after you go back! You will be punished once for a major demerit, and your rank will be demoted by two ranks! After you go back, you will work as a ground worker for three years." After three years, we will deal with it according to the performance!"

After hearing the result of Li Yuechen's punishment, the driver who was kneeling on the ground kowtowed heavily: "Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing me! Thank you all nobles!"

　I'm really sorry, there have been too many things recently, and the update is unstable.
