Daming 1805

Chapter 265
Daming Shuntian Mansion, Beijing Normal University Forbidden City.

The Ming Emperor Zhu Jianyan and his wife, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Zhongliang and his wife, four emperors and empresses of two generations.

Gathered in the Qianqing Palace to drink tea and chat, waiting for news from the Great Food Kingdom.

These four people are not very nervous now.

Zhu Jingyuan's performance so far has been very good, and the two concubines were pregnant in less than three months.

Even if there is a problem with the production this time, just arrange it later.

But the sense of expectation in my heart is still very high.

The fact that these four people can get together and wait for the news is enough to show how much they attach importance to this matter.

The four of them waited for a long time, and when they were getting anxious, the new telegram from the Great Food Kingdom finally arrived.

Zhu Jingyuan, Liu Muyun and the situation of the child, as well as Zhu Jingyuan's preliminary name for the son, were sent to the two generations of empresses together.

The names of the children of the clan of the Ming Dynasty were first drawn up by the parents themselves, and then reported to the clan's mansion to be recorded in the Jade Book of Clan Registration.

If the name is inappropriate, or if there is a conflict with the same generation and family, you have to notify the other party to change or create a new character.

The Supreme Emperor Zhu Zhongliang was the first to receive the telegram.

Now the manuscripts coming out of the telegraph room in the Forbidden City are already printed with typewriters, and it is more convenient and intuitive to read than before.

Zhu Zhongliang took a look and smiled:

"Okay, okay, that's a good name..."

Zhu Jianyan took the telegram from his father, and after reading it, he was obviously relieved.

Mother and child are safe, and I have another grandson, mainly because Zhu Jingyuan, this precious son, is also having an offspring.

However, what made Zhu Jianyan a little concerned was that Zhu Jingyuan chose this word for his son's name.

This is an absolutely uncommon character, a character coined by Emperor Shizu.

The creation of characters is not a particularly special thing, and Chinese characters themselves were created by ancient people.

The point is that Emperor Shizu didn't give it any meaning, and put it in the general standard Chinese character list.

Later, it was my father who used it as the name of a newly discovered metal element, which finally gave it connotation.

At that time, many people expressed their feelings in private, saying that Emperor Taiping was wiping his ass for Emperor Shizu's willful behavior.

Now Zhu Jingyuan has used this word again.

At this time, Zhu Jianyan looked at his father very curiously:

"Father, what's so good about this word?"

Zhu Zhongliang froze for a moment, then explained with a smile:
"Emperor Shizu's eldest grandson uses this word in his name..."

Zhu Yiyu, Zhu Cihong's first grandson, is considered to be Zhu Jianyan's uncle-great-grandfather.

Zhu Jianyan remembered the name.

This character was coined at that time, and then became the special character for the uncle's great-grandfather's name.

Zhu Jianyan was even more puzzled:
"Both you and Emperor Shizu seem to like this word very much, and Jing Yuan also seems to like this word.

"So besides the metal element it represents, does this word have any other special meaning?
"Why did Emperor Shizu and Jingyuan choose it immediately when it was the next generation's turn?"

Zhu Zhongliang narrowed his eyes with a smile:

"Its meaning is this metal, and this metal has a lot of meaning, and you'll see what it means after a while.

"Let's guess now whether Yasugaki will name his second son 'Plutonium'."

Zhu Jianyan remembered again that he also had an uncle and great-grandfather named Zhu Yifu.

This plutonium character was also a character created by Emperor Shizu at that time, and it was also forcibly included in the general standard Chinese character list.

Moreover, plutonium is not the same as uranium, and the word has no other use at present.

Someone once suggested that naming a newly discovered metal element plutonium would be a way to get rid of the emperor's fault.

This operation was done by Zhu Zhongliang himself, so it can be regarded as a precedent to follow.

As a result, this suggestion was rejected by Zhu Zhongliang decisively.

When Zhu Jianyan, his son, thought of this incident, he felt outrageous.

No matter how Zhu Jianyan asked, Zhu Zhongliang just didn't tell the real reason, insisting on waiting for the birth of Zhu Jingyuan's second son.

Zhu Jianyan has no way to force his father, so he can only endure his curiosity, anyway, it doesn't affect his work.

I shouldn't have to wait too long, two months at the fastest, and a year or two at the slowest, that kid Jing Yuan is quite capable of giving birth.

Zhu Jianyan did not wait too long. Two months later, Yu Muxue also gave birth to Zhu Jingyuan's son.

Sure enough, Zhu Jingyuan decisively named him Zhu Dilu.

When the news reached the capital, Zhu Zhongliang laughed happily, and Zhu Jianyan asked his father again for help.

Zhu Zhongliang did not shirk this time, and took Zhu Jianyan to the bedroom.

According to his father's request, Zhu Jianyan took a bath and changed clothes very solemnly.

Then everyone around including the two empresses retreated, leaving only the two generations of emperors of Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Jianyan followed his father into a separate room and came to a wall.

Under Zhu Zhongliang's instructions, Zhu Jianyan pressed several times in a row, and a hidden space appeared on the brick wall.

In the dark compartment was a small metal suitcase.

Zhu Jianyan's eyes widened. He has lived here for a year, but he didn't find this thing here.

Under Zhu Zhongliang's instruction, Zhu Jianyan took out the suitcase from the secret compartment and put it on the table in the room.

Zhu Zhongliang took out a key from his pocket and opened the lock on the box.

Subconsciously, Zhu Jianyan took a look with his head and found that there were several hand-edited books in the box.

Zhu Zhongliang looked at these pamphlets, his expression became very solemn, and he said with great emotion:

"This is the last instruction left by the ancestors to the Ming emperor, and the emperors of all dynasties called it the legacy of the ancestors.

"Your first year has passed smoothly, and now it can be officially handed over to you.

"This thing is related to the stability of the country and the country of the Ming Dynasty, so only the emperor of the Ming Dynasty can watch it.

"Remember not to disclose it to anyone, including your wives, concubines and children.

"Originally, it had to be carefully and properly sealed, and you copied a daily reading by yourself.

"In order to avoid mistakes in transcription and memory, the manuscript cannot be passed on to future generations as the original, but the original can only be passed on as the original.

"When the heir takes the throne, burn his copy.

"Two posthumous articles must not be kept in the hands of two people."

Listening to his father's arrangement, Zhu Jianyan understood many things in an instant.

Emperor Shizu left a lot of information, in addition to a large number of public technologies, there are still many that have not been made public.

The legacy in the hands of successive emperors is the information that has not been made public.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty occasionally made some special decisions, which made ordinary people feel completely incredible.

For example, the conquest of the Persian Gulf, such as the welfare and protection of workers, such as the two words coined by Emperor Shizu.

There are also many technologies and designs that were suddenly proposed by the Emperor Ming and directly instructed the Ministry of Industry and the Royal Consortium to develop them.

The real reason for these decisions, the real source of these technologies and designs should be this legacy of the ancestors.

Zhu Jianyan's mood became excited again.

The posthumous chapter left by Emperor Shizu, the instructions specially left for the emperor, its importance is self-evident.

Now that it has passed to him, he can be regarded as the real emperor of Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Zhongliang saw that his son was obviously in a daze, so he reminded again:

"You take out the third volume and read the last few pages, there is the reason why Emperor Shizu created those two metal characters.

"Be careful and look carefully, this is the authentic work left by Emperor Shizu..."

Without his father's reminder, Zhu Jianyan was already extremely careful.

He took out the third volume, opened the contents from the back to the front, and read a few paragraphs according to his father's instructions.

Zhu Jianyan looked at those contents, and slowly widened his eyes:
"Directly destroy a city, directly raze a city to the ground, and kill tens of thousands of people in an instant.

"There is also silent energy that can slowly destroy a person's body...

"Emperor Shizu also specifically marked that this is not an exaggerated statement like the one that corrupted dozens of miles, but an objective statement.

"How is this possible...it can't be...it's all true..."

Zhu Zhongliang nodded lightly and said:

"I also found it unbelievable at first, but the other predictions left by Emperor Shizu have been verified countless times.

"There has been no obvious error in the content of the legacy of the ancestors so far, so it is credible."

There was a huge wave in Zhu Jianyan's mind.

The power of radioactive weapons is beyond most people's perception.

Moreover, Zhu Jianyan quickly thought of another question, and suddenly said in astonishment:

"Why does Jingyuan use two words? Does he already know these contents? Father has already shown Jingyuan the posthumous chapter of Emperor Shizu?"

Zhu Zhongliang was a little excited this time:
"He should know these contents, but I'm sure he hasn't read the legacy of the ancestors.

"He should be the same as Emperor Shizu, he is a genius who was born and known directly.

"And according to my observation, he probably knows more than Emperor Shizu.

"That's why Jingyuan doesn't even need to read the legacy of the ancestors..."

Zhu Jianyan was obviously stunned for a few seconds.

Most people would not believe such a thing from birth.

But after Emperor Shizu, many people believed it, especially the emperors of past dynasties.

There is no other explanation for the things left by Emperor Shizu except that they were born with knowledge.

What's more, a similar situation happened to Zhu Jingyuan now.

After the scene was quiet for a few seconds, Zhu Jianyan said with some astonishment:
"That's why... it's because Jing Yuan... is the same as Emperor Shizu, so you changed your mind at the last moment..."

Zhu Zhongliang did not answer directly, obviously acquiescing to this guess, but he comforted Zhu Jianyan and said:

"You don't need to be discouraged, all the children who have passed the test have been recognized for their abilities.

"It would be troublesome if Jingyuan was born in a family of a child who failed the examination, or even in a distant clan or even a poor family."

Zhu Jianyan nodded silently.

It's good to be born in a clan family, after all, you are also a member of the royal family, and your fundamental interests are the same as those of the royal family.

Born in a poor family, it is possible to become the enemy of the royal family.

The abilities Zhu Jingyuan showed and the things he invented are enough to build a super business empire.

It may even affect the status of the royal consortium.

In fact, there are worse situations.

If this kind of life lives in Taixi, it will be difficult for Daming in the next few decades.

After being silent for a long time, Zhu Jianyan couldn't help saying:
"God bless me Daming..."

Zhu Zhongliang nodded after hearing this:

"There is nothing serious about it recently, you should read through the third and fourth volumes as soon as possible, and copy a copy for yourself.

"Many things in the future may need the content above as a reference.

"For example, plutonium, it's better not to use it to name other metals, but to reserve it for the element predicted by Emperor Sejo.

"Jing Yuan may make this thing, but it would be more troublesome to name it separately."

Zhu Jianyan nodded repeatedly, and finally understood his father's original decision.

Why did I decide to name the new metal with uranium instead of plutonium?

Because the one named uranium is the uranium designated by Emperor Shizu.

The plutonium specified by Emperor Sezu has not yet appeared, so it is not agreed to use this word for other metals.
