The moment he stepped into the palace gate, Li Xing felt very complicated.

But no matter how complicated it is, it can't stop reality.

He followed Chu Ze and walked straight to Fengtian Hall.

"You wait here, let's go in first, and then come in after someone informs you later." Chu Ze was quite worried about Li Xing, and warned him repeatedly before entering the palace, for fear that this boy might cause some trouble.

Li Xing was extremely annoyed.

But he also knew that Chu Ze was doing this for his own good.

He was not a ungrateful person. Although he was annoyed, he still responded, but his tone was very impatient.

Seeing this, Chu Ze didn't say much.

Anyway, life and death are determined by destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven.

If Li Xing wanted to die, he wouldn't stop him.

Chu Ze entered the hall.

"I, Chu Ze, are here to see the emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince. I have fulfilled my mission and made Ryukyu surrender to our Ming Dynasty within three months. Now its prefect, Li Xing, is waiting outside the palace." When Chu Ze came in, the civil and military officials were already there. Standing still on both sides, he walked forward with a calm expression and knelt down to salute.

Today we are going to meet Li Xing. The person in charge has also changed from Zhu Biao to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Sitting on the Qilin seat below Zhu Yuanzhang's right hand is Zhu Biao.

Seeing Chu Ze, Zhu Yuanzhang looked him up and down without leaving any trace.

After not seeing each other for several months, Chuze became darker and thinner.

When the girl sees you later, it will be time to feel distressed again.

When a girl feels distressed, she might have to think about herself.

Zhu Yuanzhang instantly felt a headache.

It's not that he's afraid that the girl will miss him, but mainly because he doesn't want to be missed because of this guy.

"My dear, you've had a hard time on this trip. Get up." Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to support him.

Chu Ze thanked him and stood up.

After he stood up, Zhu Yuanzhang motioned to him to stand aside first, and then asked the eunuch Xuan Lixing to enter the palace.

The chamberlain said: "Xuan, Li Xing, the prefect of Taiwan, came to the palace to see you."

The moment his voice fell, a tall figure strode in from the door.

This man was dressed in Ming Dynasty official clothes, and his beautiful face was full of unruliness.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt unhappy after seeing it.

Fortunately, this man behaved well. After entering the palace, he knelt down to see Zhu Yuanzhang. The word "chen" seemed to be a bit hot on the tongue. He hesitated for a long time and then said: "... Chen, Li Xing pays homage to the emperor. "

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care. After watching Li Xing praise a few words, he asked him to step aside and stand.

"Chu Ze." Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.

Chu Ze was standing aside in a daze.

When he heard someone calling him, Chu Ze quickly responded, walked out from the side and said, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"You have contributed to this matter. What reward do you want?"

reward?

Chu Ze had already thought about this.

Almost as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Chu Ze immediately answered, looking very impatient: "We heard two days ago that the emperor recently got a new round natural crystal without impurities. I want that."

Facing Chu Zebaba's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes twitched hard twice.

Zhu Di on the side raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Zhu Biao was also shocked.

This guy really dares to ask for it.

Zhu Yuanzhang liked that crystal very much, and he couldn't put it down after getting it.

Now I heard that it has been well stored and is being prepared to be given to their mother for the holidays in a few days.

Chu Ze dared to come and intercept something that his father wanted to give to his mother?
Not timid.

Zhu Biao really wanted to give Chu Ze a thumbs up.

Zhu Di was much more cheerful. Not only did he give Chu Ze one, but he also gave him two.

--You are great.

Zhu Yuanzhang gave Zhu Di a cold look, and Zhu Di quickly put down his hand, coughed lightly, and then looked left and right, pretending that the person giving the thumbs up just now was not him at all. "Change it." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

He couldn't bear to give this good thing to Chu Ze.

Chu Ze chuckled, a little bit coquettishly: "Your Majesty, just give him to us. You just keep him in the warehouse and eat dust. Why don't you give it to us? Maybe it can play a greater role. And this thing We didn’t get it for free, how about I exchange it with you, the emperor?”

Zhu Yuanzhang originally didn't want to give it.

But Chu Ze said to change...

"What do you want in exchange for it?" Is there anything that can be worth such a good crystal?
Unless Chu Ze got something good again.

When he thought of this possibility, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been sitting upright just now, immediately leaned forward, looking at Chu Ze with a hint of expectation.

He wanted to know what good things Chu Ze got this time.

Chu Ze did not speak, but took out a square piece of paper from his sleeve and presented it respectfully with both hands.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked his chamberlain to bring it over.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Di looked at each other, and then turned to Zhu Yuanzhang in unison.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the paper, unfolded it, and looked at it carefully.

Look……

Look at the fart!
Zhu Yuanzhang said he couldn't understand it at all.

But judging from the shape in the picture, this should be some kind of machine.

Beyond that, he couldn't understand.

Forget it, let Chu Ze explain.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed from expectant to calm.

He raised his head, looked at Chu Ze, and asked, "Chu Ze, what is this?"

"Your Majesty, do you know about steam engines?" Chu Ze asked without answering.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew this.

He nodded, looked at the picture a few more times, and said, "But it's different from this one."

"It's different, because this is called a steam generator. It uses steam to drive the unit to rotate together, and converts the kinetic energy of the steam into the mechanical energy of the shaft rotation, and then uses the generator to convert it into electrical energy, and you can get electricity." Chu Ze roughly explained it.

All civil and military officials in the court were confused.

They don't understand anything about steam or electricity.

Especially electricity.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also confused.

"What is electricity?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked the question that everyone wanted to ask.

Everyone looked at Chu Ze eagerly.

Chu Ze: "Electricity is, just..."

This question really stumped him.

He used electricity a lot, but if I really asked him to describe it, he really didn't know how to describe it for a while.

The most important thing is that even if he says it, these people may not understand it.

He had to pick something they could understand.

Chu Ze thought about it for a while, and then an idea came to his mind. He walked quickly outside the hall, pointed at the sky and said to everyone: "It's similar to lightning, but the electricity we are talking about can be used by us. It can be used for lighting, cooking, heating, etc.”

Everyone's eyes kept falling on Chu Ze.

Seeing him walking out, Zhu Yuanzhang and others followed him subconsciously.

After they finished listening to Chu Ze's words, they all looked up at the sky——

"If you can control this electricity, isn't that... Thunder God?"

I don’t know who said this first, and the others looked at Chu Ze with wild eyes.

Even Zhu Di subconsciously asked: "Are you Thunder God?"

Thunder, you big-headed man!

Chu Ze's face turned dark.

"What Thunder God? The electricity you see is just a natural phenomenon. It is a phenomenon caused by the collision of two invisible substances. As long as we have specific tools, we can get electricity." Chu Ze couldn't help but No, I explained it again. (End of chapter)
