Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 16 Zhu Shiliu!
After Cao Wei put the third fish into the bamboo basket, he put away the fish and planned to call it a day.

He even thought about how to prepare the three fish after they were brought back.

One for sweet and sour, one for steaming, and one for making fish soup.

At this time, there were no overseas condiments such as chili peppers in the Ming Dynasty, so the food was inevitably a bit monotonous.

Humming a ditty all the way, strolling back in the direction of home, but saw a burly figure standing upright at the door of his house from a distance, patrolling left and right with his sharp eyes from time to time.

With that look, Cao Wei once thought he saw Zhongnanhai's bodyguards.

This is not the key. The key is why he stood in front of his own house?
At the moment, Cao Ying is the only one in the family.

Cao Wei's heart instantly lifted!

Moreover, after getting a little closer, Cao Wei saw the man's face clearly, and remembered that he had seen him in the crowd yesterday.

There were two other people with him at the time, where did the other two go?

Step on the spot!

This word popped out of Cao Wei's mind instantly!

Oops!

He must have earned two hundred coppers from the villagers yesterday, and was noticed.

really!Do not expose your wealth!

Thinking of this, Cao Wei immediately started running like crazy and rushed towards the door of his house!

As soon as he ran away, Jiang Wei noticed it. As the emperor's personal guard, he naturally wanted to stop Cao Wei when encountering such a situation.

If it disturbs the emperor, it will be very bad!

Cao Wei arrived in a blink of an eye, and the distance between the two of them was only two steps.

Cao Wei was about to rush in, but Jiang Wei had already pressed forward to stop him.

However, Cao Wei suddenly threw the bamboo basket in his hand towards Jiang Yu's face.

The bamboo basket blocked Jiang Yu's view, and a fishy smell hit his face.

After he changed his move and knocked down the bamboo basket, Cao Wei's punch had already hit him in the heart.

Taiji does not go out for ten years, and Baji kills people in one year.

Cao Wei's Bajiquan has been practiced diligently for 12 years after coming to Ming Dynasty, not counting his previous life, and his fists are extremely fierce!

Jiang Yu was a master, and when he sensed the dominance and ferocity of his punch, he didn't dare to push it too hard, so he quickly raised his arms to block it.

But he still underestimated Cao Wei. The moment he received Cao Wei's heavy punch, a huge surge of force hit him. It was hard for him to resist. He was forced to take two steps back by the punch, and then his arms went numb for a while!
It all happened between the electric light and the flint.

Cao Wei didn't care so much. After repelling Jiang Wei, he quickly stepped forward and kicked the courtyard door open!

"boom!"

There was a violent bang from the door panel, and it was immediately separated to both sides, and the scene in the courtyard came into view.

then,

Cao Wei saw an old man and a young man sitting in the courtyard, each holding a cup in his hand, with his gear set and pulley set at his feet.

Cao Wei was a little confused.

Is Cao Ying okay?

Who is this old man?
Zhu Yuanzhang and Cao Ying were also startled by the sound of Cao Wei kicking the door.

Zhu Yuanzhang's hands were wet. He was frightened by the sound of Cao Wei kicking the door just now, and the water in the cup in his hand shook out.

For a time,

Cao Wei, Cao Ying, and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Especially Cao Ying, with a guilty expression on his face, as if he was caught face-to-face with a third party.

Jiang Yu also came over, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang with shame on his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a look, and he stepped aside again.

At this time, Cao Wei spoke.

"Ying'er, this old gentleman is..."

Just as Cao Ying was about to speak, Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead.

"The old man happened to pass by here and came in to beg for a drink."

After Cao Ying was stunned for a moment, he seemed to understand something and nodded.

Hearing this, Cao Wei felt relieved.

It turned out that it wasn't a gang committing the crime, so it's okay.

Yingtian Mansion is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and Jiangning County is located on the edge of the imperial city. It is true that many outsiders pass by.

Seeing that Cao Ying was fine, Cao Wei had no doubts about Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

He laughed twice, and walked in: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding, but I was reckless. The old man was not surprised, right?"

Cao Wei cupped his hands towards Zhu Yuanzhang: "The visitor is a guest, so don't blame the old man for the poor hospitality."

"It's okay, it's okay, the old man is not so delicate." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.

After talking, Cao Wei also moved a stool and sat down.

After some chatting, I learned that the old man in front of me was named Zhu Shiliu. He came to Yingtian to meet an old friend. He said that the man was an official in the court. As for the official position, Cao Wei didn't ask, it was not his old friend.

Zhu Shiliu...

Cao Wei said it again in his heart, secretly surprised.

Sixteen, heavy eight!
Good fellow, you are quarreling with the emperor!
Zhu Yuanzhang finally saw his grandson today, but he did not forget another thing. He turned to look at Cao Wei.

"Just now Ying'er told us something, the old man found it very interesting. You said that if you make a big Kongming lantern, you can take people to the sky?"

Cao Wei looked at Cao Ying, who smiled awkwardly at him.

Helplessly smiling and shaking his head, Cao Wei said:
"I am just guessing about this method, but it is theoretically feasible."

Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to be thoughtful, and then asked:
"Then if you really make that big Kongming lantern and fly it to the sky with people, how will it fall down safely?"

Cao Wei glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang in surprise:
"Is Lao Zhuqian interested in this matter?"

Old Zhu...

Cao Ying and Zhu Yuanzhang twitched their lips at the same time.

Cao Wei is probably the only one in the world who dares to call Zhu Yuanzhang this way.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang felt strange in his heart, he did not get angry. After all, his identity at this time was just an ordinary old man named Zhu Shiliu.

It's okay for Cao Wei to call him Lao Zhu.

After nodding his head, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "People can walk on the ground and swim in the sea, but they can't fly in the sky. How can you not be interested in hearing this method of ascension to heaven?"

Cao Ying also looked at Cao Wei with wide eyes, full of curiosity.

Last time Cao Wei only told him that he could find a craftsman to solve it, but he didn't elaborate on it.

Cao Wei laughed.

Usually he pretends to be aggressive in front of Cao Ying, but today he finally pretended to be aggressive in front of outsiders.

Let you experience the wisdom of modern people.

"It's very simple."

Old God Cao Wei said in an incomprehensible manner, how can such a small problem stump you?

"Since the Kongming Lantern relies on the heat generated by the fire source to rise into the sky, then as long as we find a way to control the size of the flame, we can control the rise and fall of the Kongming Lantern."

"For example, there is an air inlet under the blacksmith's stove, which is used to control the size of the flame. However, this method has a delay in controlling the size of the flame after all.

If you want to control the size of the flame in time, you can add a cover that can be opened and closed above the flame..."

Zhu Yuanzhang listened and wrote down one by one in his heart.

Then, he looked at the gears and pulleys on the ground.

At this moment, Cao Wei was very excited. Seeing that he was also interested in the gear set, he immediately demonstrated it in front of him again.

When the boulder of two or three hundred kilograms wobbled up, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened without blinking.

This gear set and pulley set are equally useful!

This Cao Wei is really a genius!
