The ministers begged me to ascend the throne
Chapter 451 Tinkering with Rubber
After the vaccination against smallpox was announced, Zhao Yao paid no attention to the reaction from the capital. Every time he did something important and reported it to the court, he never paid attention to the court's reaction.
These days, the children who were vaccinated against cowpox in Marsh Mansion have been successfully vaccinated and returned to their homes safe and sound. During the vaccination process, they were a little weak, but nothing serious. Renhetang took good care of them. When they returned home, they were not only fatter than before, but also much whiter than before.
The other people saw that these children were still active and mellow after being vaccinated with cowpox, and they were convinced in their hearts. Mainly because I heard that during the cowpox vaccination period, I could eat well, drink well, and sleep well at Renhetang. They can't miss such a good thing again. However, not every child can be vaccinated against cowpox. Before getting vaccinated against cowpox, you have to take good care of yourself.
People also know that vaccination with cowpox requires good health. If you are in poor health, you will die from vaccination, so they are not in a hurry. Just listen to the doctor and take good care of yourself before planting.
The cowpox vaccination went well, and Zhao Yao stopped taking care of it. He was busy with a very important thing during this period, which was to tinker with rubber juice.
A few years ago, Zhao Yao had people transplant rubber trees from Annan and Johor and other countries. Although the climate of Lingnan is similar to that of Annan and other countries, there are still some differences. When they were first transplanted to Lingnan, many rubber trees died due to the "unsuitable climate and soil". Later, under the careful care of old farmers, the rubber trees transplanted from foreign countries slowly survived.
In recent years, rubber trees have grown very well. At that time, because Zhao Yaoyuan was in the capital, he ignored these rubber trees. I came to Marsh Mansion last year because I had too many things to do and I didn’t have the energy to do them. However, last year, Zhao Yao asked people to collect rubber juice.
From last year to now, a lot of rubber juice has been collected, but how to turn the rubber juice into the rubber of Zhao Yao's world in his dream is a problem.
Zhao Yao is currently playing Cuju made of rubber juice. Cuju made of rubber juice can jump very high and is very fun to play.
Song Jicai and the others played for a while and fell in love with this bouncing and dishonest "Cuju".
"Boss, how did you come up with the idea of using rubber juice to make Cuju?"
"This Cuju made of rubber juice can actually jump. It's really fun."
"This Cuju made of rubber juice is more fun to play."
"Boss, you can sell this Cuju for a lot of money."
Zhao Yao took the Cuju kicked by Chu Huan and then performed a fancy show, causing the four younger brothers to scream non-stop.
"I don't ask people to collect rubber juice to make Cuju. It has many uses." Zhao Yao patted the Cuju with his hand and briefly told the four younger brothers about other uses of rubber. "If you apply this juice on your clothes, the clothes will not get wet if they are wet, and if you apply this juice on your shoes, they will not get wet. It can also be used as a rope, and..."
After hearing what Zhao Yao said, Shen Sen and the others were stunned.
"Boss, is rubber juice so powerful?"
"Well, what I just mentioned are just some small uses, and there are also big uses." Zhao Yao looked at the Cuju in his hand and fell into deep thought, how to dissolve the rubber?
Zhao Yao desperately searched for relevant knowledge in his mind, and he really found it.
"By the way, petroleum can be dissolved, as well as turpentine."
"Boss, what is oil, and what is turpentine?"
"Oil is black oil." Zhao Yao brought the Cuju made from rubber juice to Chu Huan and the others, and explained: "There will be a Cuju performance at the trade conference. You can start practicing with this Cuju now."
"Yes, boss."
"I have something to go to Beishan." There is black oil in the laboratory in the Beishan cave.
When Zheng Cheng saw Zhao Yao coming, he thought he was here to care about the progress of the cannon, and hurriedly reported to him the progress of the cannon during this period.
Zhao Yao interrupted him and told him about rubber juice.
After listening to Zhao Yao's description, Zheng Cheng's face lit up: "Your Highness, we have to make rubber quickly." This rubber is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
"We have to dissolve the rubber first. The black oil should be able to dissolve it. Let's try it now..."
Next, Zhao Yao stayed in the Beishan Laboratory and was busy doing rubber experiments with Zheng Cheng.
While Zhao Yao was busy tinkering with rubber, King Zheng, who had been far away in Jiaozhou, had returned to the capital.
When King Zheng returned to the capital, nothing changed on the surface, but secretly it was turbulent, and the situation in the DPRK quietly changed.
He was used to living happily in Jiaozhou, but when he returned to the capital, King Zheng felt all sorts of uncomfortable. He felt that being an emperor was not as good as being his free prince in Jiaozhou. Besides, he is the emperor in Jiaozhou and can do whatever he wants.
When Concubine Shu saw her son looking like he was dying, she couldn't help but get angry.
"I will go to see the emperor right away and ask him to destroy you so that you will not be an eyesore in front of me."
Prince Zheng was frightened by Concubine Shu's words. His expression changed drastically and he said, "Concubine, why do you want to destroy me?"
Concubine Shu had a cold face and said in a very serious tone: "I think you don't want to be my son or a member of the Wang family, so what use are you? It's better to just destroy you and cut off ties with you, which saves trouble." ."
When King Zheng saw that Concubine Shu did not seem to be speaking out of anger or telling lies, he was so frightened that his face turned pale and he quickly knelt down towards Concubine Shu: "Concubine, my son did not mean this."
"You haven't?" Concubine Shu looked at Prince Zheng coldly, "You have been living in Jiaozhou all these years and have completely forgotten about me and the Wang family. Now that I have finally called you back to the capital, it's good for you. Not only are you not at all happy, but you are also full of joy. Complain.”
King Zheng lowered his head and said, "My son doesn't dare."
"Hmph, those things you did in Jiaozhou were lawless, why don't you dare." Concubine Shu's eyes were sharp and her tone was sharp, "Without me and without the Wang family, you are nothing. Who do you think gave you your current status?" Yours, if I had known you would be so useless, I shouldn’t have given birth to you back then.”
These words were so serious that King Zheng was filled with fear.
"Mother, I was wrong, I was really wrong."
"In order for you to return to the capital, your uncle betrayed the aristocratic family and was scolded by the aristocratic families and dignitaries. You are not grateful at all. You blame us for forcing you to return to the capital." Concubine Shu became more and more angry as she spoke and raised her hands fiercely. He slammed the table hard and his tone became more and more angry, "Are you worthy of us?" King Zheng admitted his mistake obediently: "My son was wrong."
Concubine Shu knew Prince Zheng best, so she didn't know that he didn't really admit his mistake.
"Since you are unwilling, we won't force you." Concubine Shu looked at the way she had become a stranger due to drinking and sex. Her eyes were full of disgust. She didn't understand why she gave birth to such an incompetent son. "I will go to the emperor later and sever the relationship between mother and son..."
"Concubine, I really know that I was wrong." King Zheng knew that Concubine Shu was really angry. He kowtowed and begged, "My son must listen to you and your uncle and never dare to complain again."
"I'll give you one last chance." Although Concubine Shu really wanted to get rid of Prince Zheng's embarrassing son, she only had one son, and the entire Wang family was betting on him. "If you continue to look like this, you will continue." If you do what you did in Jiaozhou, I will definitely ask the emperor for permission to sever the relationship between mother and son, and I will do what I say!"
King Zheng was complaining in his heart, but he did not dare to show it on his face.
"My son must listen to you carefully."
"You'd better keep your word, otherwise don't blame me for not caring about the relationship between mother and son."
"My son will definitely be able to do it." Another reason why King Zheng didn't want to return to Beijing was that he didn't want to be disciplined by Concubine Shu anymore.
"Go away." Concubine Shu took one more look at this dishonorable son and became even more angry.
King Zheng did not dare to delay and crawled out of Fuyang Palace.
When he returned to Prince Zheng's Mansion, he became very angry. He did not dare to express his dissatisfaction in front of Concubine Shu, so he could only go home and get angry.
After getting angry, King Zheng wanted to be free and happy, no matter it was daytime, he went to fool around with the beauties he brought back.
While he was messing around, Anyang Gong came.
King Zheng did not dare to ignore Duke Anyang. When he learned that he was coming, he reluctantly stopped playing around and hurried to see him.
When Duke Anyang saw King Zheng, he angrily threw the tea cup on the ground, pointed at his nose and cursed.
King Zheng was so scolded that he did not dare to refute. When Anyang Gong got tired of scolding him, he carefully poured him a cup of tea.
Anyang Gong was very disappointed in his nephew, King Zheng, but he had no other choice but to continue to support him.
"Your Highness, when you sit on the throne, all the beauties in the world will be yours. You can do whatever you want by then, and neither I nor Concubine Shu will care about you anymore." Duke Anyang first tempted Prince Zheng, Then he gave him another stick, "Your Highness, do you think you will be safe if you stay in Jiaozhou? Do you think the other princes will let you go? If you don't fight for the throne and wait for the new emperor to take the throne, you will only die. "
King Zheng said nothing.
"Your Highness, do you really think that what you did in Jiaozhou can be hidden from the public? Once the King of Chu and the others know about it, they will definitely use these things to kill you." Seeing that King Zheng looked distracted, Anyang Gong's expression changed. It was a little ugly, "Your Highness, you really don't want to, I don't care about you anymore. What will happen to you in the future has nothing to do with my Wang family." After saying that, he got up and left.
When King Zheng saw that Duke Anyang was really gone, he panicked and hurriedly chased after him, acknowledging his mistake, apologizing, and saying good things.
In the Prince Chu's Mansion not far from Prince Zheng's Mansion, King Chu was reading the letter sent by Zhao Yao.
In his letter, Zhao Yao asked the King of Chu to help him lure some failed students to come to Lingnan. The King of Chu couldn't laugh or cry after reading it.
Yang Ling, who was sitting aside and reading a book, heard King Chu's laughter and asked curiously: "Your Highness, what did His Highness the King of Han write that made you so happy?"
"The tenth brother asked me to help him persuade some students who failed to go to Lingnan..." King Chu told Yang Ling the benefits of Zhao Yao deceiving the failed students.
After hearing this, Yang Ling praised it without hesitation: "His Royal Highness, this idea is really good. There should be many students willing to go to Lingnan to give it a try."
"Tenth brother always has many evil ideas."
"Your Highness, I think His Highness the King of Han understands people's hearts." Yang Ling said, "His Royal Highness the King of Han knows the wishes of the students who failed the exam, so he gave them a chance to become officials and gave them a chance to pass the exam." You can do it by going to Lingnan. If you become an official, you can pass the exam. Which student can resist such a temptation.
"Your Highness, how are you going to help His Highness the King of Han?" Yang Ling wanted to persuade the King of Chu not to help the King of Han, but he knew that the King of Chu would not listen to him.
"Go see your grandfather tomorrow and tell him about this matter. He will make arrangements." Many students in Taixue failed to pass the exam. My grandfather persuaded them to go to their tenth brother and they would listen.
Yang Ling sighed in her heart: It is indeed so.
"Your Highness, is the Imperial Hospital conducting cowpox vaccination?"
"The Imperial Hospital is already preparing, and they are now waiting for the doctor sent by the tenth brother." Mentioning the fact that vaccination with cowpox can prevent smallpox, King Chu was full of pride in his younger brother Zhao Yao, "The tenth brother has done another good deed. "
"It's not just a good thing, this is a major event that will last forever. From now on, the people will all thank His Highness the King of Han." Yang Ling now has complicated feelings about Zhao Yao, the King of Han. He still felt that Zhao Yao would be King Chu's biggest opponent, but he was admired by what Zhao Yao had done. As for the vaccination against cowpox, he admired it very much. When he was a child, his brother contracted smallpox and died.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han is truly a great talent."
"Having ten younger brothers is a blessing to the people of the world, a blessing to the great Zhou Dynasty, and an honor to me." The King of Chu was particularly proud to have Zhao Yao as his younger brother.
"Your Highness is right." When the vaccination against cowpox spreads, the people will be grateful to His Highness the King of Han. His Highness the King of Han already had a very good reputation among the people. In the future, I am afraid that His Highness the King of Han will become a god among the people.
Alas, I hope His Highness the King of Han has no intention of competing for the throne, as His Highness said, otherwise...
The second update is here.
I will continue two updates tomorrow and make up for those that have not been updated in the past two days.
