Chapter 247 Unformed Steam Engine

There were obviously many more pedestrians on the road than before, and Song Qingyue remembered that Qiu Wei's exam was about to start.

Students from the Gyeonggi area rushed into the capital from the North Zhili area, so the city became more and more lively.

Especially this alley, where the location is remote, the house rent is cheap, and there are so many people.

Looking at the hurrying pedestrians coming and going, the guards took the initiative to step forward and stand in front of Shi Zifei to prevent her from being bumped into.

But in this way, they blocked the originally not spacious alley to only a very narrow passage.

Song Qingyue felt that she was causing trouble for everyone by wandering around like this, so she got into the carriage when she got out of that alley. She originally wanted to go back to the palace directly, but seeing so many scholars on the street, she thought that her fifth younger brother Song Chenfei also had to take the exam I really want to go back to my mother's house to have a look.

It is actually quite rude to come directly to the door without posting the post. In view of her status, the servants in the Song Mansion are a little flustered because of her sudden visit, so they can't say anything.

Mrs. Liang was quite happy to see her, and asked about the recent situation of the palace.

"It's nothing, it's still the same." Song Qingyue said casually, "How about Ah Fei? The exam will be in a few days, right?"

Mrs. Liang was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, you still think about him. He's in the academy."

Now it was Song Qingyue's turn to be surprised: "Father and the two elder brothers wouldn't ask him to come back and start a small stove in advance?"

Mrs. Liang shook her head and said, "Your father and elder brothers have been busy recently. Your father said: 'If Qiu Wei can't handle it by himself, he should stop thinking about the imperial examination early. It will be a waste to pass the exam. Help the family take care of it. The housekeeping is done!'"

Mrs. Liang imitated Mr. Song's tone by ten percent. Song Qingyue choked on her tea, laughed, nodded her head in agreement and said, "What father said is that no one can be an official in the whole family. If there are two Jinshi from other families, they must be officials." For those who burn high incense, our family also has a father and son Tanhualang, that's enough."

These words made Mrs. Liang feel comfortable, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she said, "It's just that Aunt Qiu is unwilling."

Because of the quarrel with the Song family's direct branch, Song Chenfei dropped out of the Song clan school and studied at the Shoushan Academy in the suburbs of Beijing.

There are several great Confucian scholars in the Shoushan Academy, and several gentlemen are official officials. It can be regarded as the leading academy among the more than 20 academies in the capital.

When Song Chenfei entered school, it also attracted a lot of attention. The head of the academy even personally received the son of Song Ge's hometown.

With a talented father like Mr. Song Ge, and two brothers who are not inferior, Song Chenfei was in awe when he first entered school, and the old gentlemen in the academy were vying to accept him as a disciple.

But a year has passed, Song Chenfei seems to be mediocre except for his hard work, which disappointed those Confucian scholars who had high expectations for him at the beginning.

No wonder the Song Clan School was willing to let him study in other colleges, there really is no good apprentice who is picked for nothing in the world!

During this year, Song Chenfei has endured enormous psychological pressure, experienced the changes in the attitudes of his teachers and classmates towards him, and lost a lot of weight. Fortunately, he is now calmer and calmer than before, and his relationship with his classmates It's more harmonious than before.

Three days before Qiu Wei, Song Chenfei who was in the academy received an osmanthus sachet from a small yellow door in Su Wang's mansion, with an osmanthus branch embroidered with gold thread on it.

"The third sister embroidered this by herself?" Song Chenfei was very pleasantly surprised.When he was at home in the past, he was not very close to the third sister. He was really flattered that his elder sister, who was already the eldest concubine of the palace, could give him a sachet made by herself at this time.

Of course, Song Qingyue didn't embroider it by herself. She was busy recently and asked the embroiderer from the sewing room in the mansion to rush out overnight. The words were nice and said: "Naturally, it was embroidered by the imperial concubine staying up all night. I wish the fifth young master of Song Dynasty to beat Ma Yujie, drink Qionglin drunk, win the laurels in the toad palace, and win the three yuan!"

Little Huangmen was very talkative, three yuan and first, it was impossible, just listen to it, but it was an auspicious word, Song Chenfei gave Xiaohuangmen half a bounty, and Xiaohuangmen left happily.

The young scholars in the academy all gathered to watch the excitement.

"Song Wu, which sister of yours gave this to you?"

"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that it was an eunuch just now? Who else could it be? Of course it's the concubine of Prince Su's mansion!"

"I envy the dead!"

Song Chenfei smiled a little shyly while holding the sachet, but soon the topic of the group of young scholars became distorted: "I heard that the imperial concubine is a great beauty."

"How beautiful? Is it more beautiful than the lady in Jieqi Pavilion?"

Song Chenfei's face immediately changed when he heard this, he picked up the book on the table and threw it at the man's head.

The man yelled, and a group of scholars laughed and booed: "It's time to fight! His Royal Highness King Su heard this, watch your head carefully!"

"That's right, how do you talk? It's really a fight."

……

Not to mention how noisy and noisy the young students in the academy are, in King Su's mansion, King Su was so angry that his merchant ship was robbed while passing through the Zhejiang waters, and he directly let the merchant ship go north, directly in the The aides who were unloading the cargo at Tianjin Port were beaten half to death, locked in the underground secret room and interrogated for several days. After confirming that he was not a spy sent by some party, they let him go home to recuperate from his injuries.

King Su couldn't swallow this breath!If it weren't for the palace's need to hide its strength now, he really wanted to lead the fleet to Zhejiang and take over the old dog's old lair in person without hesitation!
Now is the time when the fire is really imminent, and he still wants to ignore 21 and open the silver mine in Tongren, but his eldest son repeatedly warned him before leaving, no matter what, don't rush to open the mine in Tongling, so he pressed the button. Feeling impulsive, after thinking twice, he called Song Qingyue over and told her the truth about the tight financial situation of the palace.

Song Qingyue opened her eyes wide and looked at her father-in-law in shock, not because she was shocked by her father-in-law's behavior of crying poorly to her, but because the secret expenses of the palace had reached such a high level!
"Father, you... How many people have you raised?" She asked in a low voice.

"Tsk! You girl, why are you so sensitive!" King Su frowned.

"Father, my daughter-in-law is timid!" Song Qingyue said pitifully.

"Are you timid?"

Ha ha!

King Su laughed dryly, straightened his face, and said, "Boss, daughter-in-law, what can you do to stop hiding it and share your father's worries. Father will never treat the Song family badly in the future, do you understand?"

Song Qingyue muttered in a low voice: "What are the Song family afraid of? It's true that my father don't treat your boss badly."

King Su looked at her two round, dark, innocent and lively eyes, heheeded, and pointed her with his finger. After a long while, he said in a very low voice: "This king's, I will definitely be with you in the future." Leave it to Ah Zhao, you can relax."

Song Qingyue curled her lips, Su Wang didn't know whether she believed it or not, she rubbed her head, remembered the scientific examination, and said: "Qiu Wei is too late, why don't we collect the previous years' examinations and palace examinations? The twenty articles, as well as the articles written by you adults who may be selected as principal and assistant chief examiners, are all put together and bound into a book for sale?"

The ancient version of "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation" will definitely be snapped up when it is printed.

King Su laughed and thought, she was indeed the daughter of Wenchen's family. This idea was unexpected to him anyway. He nodded and said, "It's a good idea, but it's a bit troublesome to set up Su Wang's mansion, but it's convenient for your father to do it." some."

When Song Qingyue heard that King Su was going to send her father to work again, she hurriedly came up with other ideas, and she opened her mouth with a little hesitation and said: "My daughter-in-law still has one thing. I am afraid that taking this thing out will kill many people." way of wealth."

King Su's eyes lit up, and he smiled with relief: "Good job, this king knows that you girl has a lot of tricks, what time is it, don't be afraid! Just take it out!"

Song Qingyue said yes, and turned to ask Qin Jifu to go to his study to take out the drawings of steam-powered mills that were similarly drawn.

If something like a steam engine is complicated, it's really not complicated. The structure is as simple as a generator or an electric motor.

But wanting to make something that can actually be used is another matter.

"To put it simply, there are two air inlets at both ends of the cylinder, and the piston in the middle. Put water here, and the coal stove below. After the coal is burned, boil the water in the first cylinder, and then use the water to The principle of steam expansion, water vapor enters the second cylinder from the first inlet through the pipe, pushing the piston to move, after the piston passes, the first air inlet is blocked, after the gas goes out from here, the water vapor It comes out from the second air inlet and pushes the piston back, so that the rod connected to the piston can be made to reciprocate back and forth, and then pass through the crankshaft to drive the grinding disc to rotate. However, some of the details and dimensions still need to be Make the model and modify it after the experiment. If you have a master who is free, you can show them this half-drawn picture. In short, the principle is such a principle, very simple, but how to do it specifically Design also requires experimental data and calculations."

After explaining the principle and ins and outs of this thing to King Su, King Su stared blankly, so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

He almost realized that this thing called a steam engine by Song Qingyue can only drive a mill, drive a carriage, and even a ship is also possible!
"This, this thing..." His throat rolled up and down, and he said, "This thing, can it be loaded on the boat?"

Tsk, how did King Su have such a brain?

Sure enough, Li Zhao's IQ was inherited from his father!
The reaction is really fast!
Song Qingyue scratched her face subconsciously, and said: "Then we still need to manufacture the propeller. It also depends on whether the quality of the steel can meet the requirements. If the bearings in the middle can really be made according to the drawings, can the seals of the cylinders and valves meet the requirements?" , otherwise it is very possible that the tank will be blown up and lie down on the road."

"Why didn't you take it out sooner!" Su Wang seemed to have not heard what she said, his body was trembling slightly with excitement, and he said: "By the way, that latex tree you said you were looking for before, there is a tree in the south." The merchant ship found it and said it cut a few barrels of gum, and it will be shipped in a while."

"Really!?" At this time, Song Qingyue's eyes were shining with excitement.

She took Mo Zhu's hand, jumped up and down a few times in a very undignified way, and because of excitement, she couldn't help but raised her voice, and said loudly: "Father, don't worry about this steam engine, we have to think about the details slowly, but That gum, my daughter-in-law can guarantee you a lot of money!"

"Really? Tell me." King Su calmed down, raised his legs, picked up the tea, and took two sips.

Song Qingyue said with a smile: "The gum doesn't need to be treated in any way. It can be used as oiled paper if it is only applied on densely woven linen or kudzu cloth and dried in the sun. It has good waterproof performance and is much more durable than oiled paper. In addition, I have There is a set of vulcanization process, I will show you when I make something, I am sure you will like it.”

Seeing her promise, King Su also looked forward to it for a while, and even asked Eunuch Yang to directly ask someone to go to the south to buy a large amount of that kind of gum. It seemed that he was not worried at all that Song Qingyue would not be able to deliver a finished product that satisfied him.

Eunuch Yang raised his eyebrows, wondering when this concubine won the trust of her master.

Before Song Qingyue left, she did not forget to hold the door frame and tell His Royal Highness King Su: "Father, you must not plant the tree that can produce white gum in the north, only in the south of Lingnan or in some hot and humid places in Yunnan. Don’t waste your efforts! Get more latex tree saplings and plant them in the south, they will make money! Also, they need a lot of sulfur, and it is said that there is a lot of sulfur in the south, remember to buy some, I can use it!”

"Understood!" Su Wang put his hands behind his back, looked at her jumping back, smiled and shook his head, with a rare kindness on his face, and turned his head to Wang Luen: "This girl is so sweet, No wonder the boss likes her."

Eunuch Wang agreed with a smile: "That's right, His Royal Highness is not low-minded."

"Ask someone to make a batch of umbrellas out of linen or Gebu, no, no, no, bring in a batch of linen and Gebu, and buy more." King Su continued to hold his hands behind his back, and quickly made a decision.

"So fast?" Eunuch Wang was surprised.

Su Wang touched the neatly trimmed beard on his lips, thought for a while, and asked uncertainly: "How about making some leather boots?"

Eunuch Wang hurriedly bowed to dissuade him: "Why don't you call your staff to discuss it first?"

Su Wang snorted unhappily: "A group of people who eat nothing! It's not as good as a little girl! Call the princess here, it's time to reduce some expenses in the mansion!"

On the other hand, Princess Xiao Ning, who had finally waited until the first day of the new year, got up excitedly, looking forward to the eldest daughter-in-law who never greeted herself to pay her respects.

She also specially dressed up today, and decided to put on airs as the hostess of the palace.She had planned it all, how could she let that daughter-in-law who doesn't take herself seriously be embarrassed, and she should be taught a lesson by the women in the backyard of the palace, even if she is the crown prince, she can handle it!

But when the time comes, the left waits for people not to come, and the right waits for people not to come.

Everyone talked nonsense for a long time, and the princess didn't see the meeting calling for the end of the meeting. They were all wondering what was going on. Finally, the big nanny in charge of the East Road, Bai Nao, came.

"Princess, I'm really sorry. The concubine Shi Zi got up early and was going to pay your respects, but she was called by the prince just now to discuss matters, so it was delayed, and I sent this old slave here to accuse you."

Bai Momo raised her head and puffed her chest out, speaking arrogantly, Xiao Ning was almost tense, and wanted to point at her and yell at her.

Even if he was called by the prince, shouldn't he come here earlier to ask for leave and plead guilty?

What time has it been before you send someone over and say in a perfunctory manner, is this stomping her face under your feet?

Ever since that little goblin from the Song family came to the palace, she has teamed up with that little bastard on the East Road to bully her!Then there is the second concubine, she is also a mother, mother-in-law!

They, how could they bully her and humiliate her like this?
All of a sudden, the discussion in the hall was like a swarm of flies, surrounding Xiao Ning, making her dizzy.

Nanny Ren supported Xiao Ning's, and exerted some force on her hands, telling her to hold on.

Just when her breasts were about to erupt, an eunuch Fang came to the front hall, accompanied him with a cautious smile and said, "My lord, my lord is here to invite you."

In front of the prince's people, no amount of anger could be vented. The princess glared at Nanny Bai and snorted, and said angrily, "I'll go when I change my clothes."

Seeing Wang Hao's blue face, Bai Momo pretended to be calm, but in fact she was quite disturbed.Ordinarily, the Song family and the Ning family have both literature and military, and no one can overwhelm the other, but I have never seen a daughter-in-law bullying her mother-in-law like this.

After returning to Wufangzhai, she asked cautiously: "Concubine Shizi, have we gone too far today? If this gets out, it will be bad for your reputation."

Song Qingyue was laying down on the ground drawing blueprints, drawing with all her concentration, as if she didn't hear it. Nanny Bai talked for a long while, but she didn't hear any response.

Bai Momo had no choice but to quietly leave, not to disturb Shi Zifei's work anymore.

Although Song Qingyue has emphasized to them many times that no matter how important the princess is, it is no more important than the prince and the prince, there is still a saying that "grasp the main contradiction and the central task, and drive the overall situation."

Bai Momo seems to understand, but she also knows that as long as she can capture the heart of the prince and gain the attention of the prince, the concubine of the prince can walk sideways in the palace. Not contradictory?Even if you can't be as close as your mother, don't keep offending the concubine. How can there be such a daughter-in-law who bullies her mother-in-law in this world...

In fact, Song Qingyue didn't mean to offend Xiao Ning, she just wanted to live a comfortable life.

In her opinion, she has provided so much added value for this palace, this family, it is not too much to want to live a comfortable and comfortable life, right?

If they couldn't make her live at ease, they were heartless and bullying!
