The capital city, the yamen hall of the Censorate.

Yan Chengjin's eyes flashed slightly, and she fell into deep thought.

In Liangxiang Communication Science, the butterfly effect was produced and phosphorus was discovered a hundred years in advance. He was a talented person.

"I hope it's not a rebel who wants to kill Zhu Houzhao."

Zheng Gan sat in front of the yamen and sent out the yamen runners and the officers of Xu Yong, the five-city military officer, to search.

Half an hour later, he came in with a man wearing a big black hat and a blue satin on his head. He was obviously a merchant from Liangxiang.

"Sir, that hot powder is obtained from the Franchise man, not made by the villain."

Seeing that the flames were beautiful, he had an idea and turned into a hanging light.

Yan Chengjin's face was dull, but he never expected that the person who found Phosphorus was Franjiman!

He didn't know how to prepare phosphorus...

The merchant was so scared that his face looked like a mortal, and he didn't know what crime he had committed. The Censorate's yamen was different from the Ministry of Justice and Shuntian Prefecture, and the cases investigated were all related to the emperor.

Thinking of this, my heart shuddered again.

"That group of Franjis moved into the Honglu Temple."

Zheng Gan walked back to the back hall and said to Yan Chengjin: "Is it the Franji man the Supreme Emperor wants to see, will he arrest him?"

Yan Chengjin touched his chin. Could it be that the science in Liangxiang has been passed on to the West?

It is not surprising that he can imitate the general of the Red Barbarians and secretly print science books. Franji people are doing business in Liangxiang, and can buy science books at a high price, or even take science people directly to the sea.

It’s not that he wanted to blame anyone, but that Franji’s scientific progress surprised him.

...

Wenhua Palace.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi felt a pain in his heart. The Ganqing Palace and the surrounding side halls had just been repaired, and the glaze and wood were new.

It burned out in the blink of an eye.

"Have Yan Chengjin found the lamp seller?"

When Xiao Jing heard this, he didn't say much: "Yan Chengjin went to the Censorate's Office, but there was no news yet."

At this time, the eunuch outside the door came in to report that the Franji entered the palace.

The singing is getting closer and closer, and there is no such complicated procedure.

But in order to show the majesty of the Ming court to the Gentiles, the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi ordered all the eunuchs along the way to sing, which shocked Franji people.

Zhu Houzhao's legs were numb when his knees were kneeling. He quickly put down his hem of his clothes while the emperor was not paying attention and squatted instead.

A moment later, several Franchise men walked in, wearing Ming silk, in a rather strange style.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes slightly, looked around the few people, squinted his eyes and said, "Why do you want to see me?"

Franji robbed Mangala and advanced to Hainan. He had no favoritism for these big and powerful people.

The leader of Franji showed respect and bowed slightly as he imitated the Ming people: "Dear Ming Emperor, I am the envoy of Franji, Oves, and I came here this time to make a deal with the Ming Dynasty."

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi was stunned. He couldn't beat the court and turned to wanting to make a deal. How could there be such a good thing in the world?

"I have a few items that I want to send to the palace for the Supreme Emperor to see you, and I beg you for your kindness."

When entering the palace, the imperial guards at the Meridian Gate searched and detained several accompanying objects.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, preventing Franji from bringing objects into the palace, as if he was afraid.

He didn't want to leave a stigma for the court in the West, so he nodded: "Bring it in."

The eunuchs carried an object in.

The object is square, like a big box, with the brass ball inside constantly shaking, and there are two needles on it, which are constantly rotating.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi was very knowledgeable, but he was attracted by this time.

Oves stepped forward with pride and introduced: "This object is called a pendulum, which is more accurate than the sundial of the Ming Dynasty. When the time comes, it will remind you that there is no need to update the husband."

I saw that when the pointer slid towards the square, a melodious sound made.

Xiao Jing's face changed drastically, and he quickly blocked the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi and stretched out his arms to protect him.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi's eyes shone brightly, and he was amazed: "What is this thing called?"

"The pendulum, the clock means the hour of the Ming Dynasty." Oves smiled with sharp eyes and explained to the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi.

The Franji man next to him couldn't help but feel proud.

Although science originated from the East, they studied hard and made improvements like the general of the Red Barbarians.

At this moment, a harsh and beating sound rang out: "I have it in the Ming Dynasty, and I have seen it a long time ago."

Oves's face shook slightly. He had already inquired about it in Liangxiang, and there was no such logistics.

He pointed to the number on the pendulum without believing in the evil spirit and said, "If I have seen it, I dare to ask this emperor, what time is this?"

"Three o'clock, the Yin hour of the Ming Dynasty."

“What time is this?”

"Fifteen o'clock, the hour of You of the Ming Dynasty."

“What time is this?”

"Twenty-three o'clock, the midday of the Ming Dynasty."

Oves' expression collapsed and he pointed at him tremblingly: "This... what time is this!"

"Seven o'clock, the hour of the Ming Dynasty."

He had really seen this thing, and Oves and Franjiren had a light in their eyes, and they looked at Zhu Houzhao very seriously.

Zhu Houzhao was proud, how could he teach him to recognize it? He remembered, "This is the Zhengde clock, not the pendulum. I have seen it in Lao Gao's mansion long ago."

"What?" The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi was slightly stunned. He remembered Yan Chengjin's temperament, but suddenly realized.

This guy actually has such a good thing hidden.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi manages all kinds of things every day, and it is extremely important to him to look at the time.

Have it been there long ago?

Oves's face turned red in an instant. It was not surprising that Liangxiang had this thing, but he took out another item in a blink of an eye.

There are glass pieces on this object, which are strange in shape, but there is nothing special about it. Oves looked enthusiastic: "This is a microscope, which can see things that cannot be seen by the eyes."

Xiao Jing winked, and the little eunuch hurriedly walked forward a few steps and looked into the lens, "Hey, the ant actually has tentacles!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but come over to take a look. Seeing the tentacles on the ant's head was much clearer than usual.

Only after Oves's face regained his confidence, several items were added one after another.

One of them was a firearm called the flintlock musket. It was loaded very quickly and was far more powerful than that of the Ming Dynasty.

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi was calm, but his heart was shocked, which was a little interesting.

"This time, he was ordered by the king to want the place of the Oyster Mirror of the Ming Dynasty. In exchange, the king will give these items to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and increase the price of silk."

The shock in the heart of the Supreme Emperor Hongzhi has not yet dissipated.

Especially when it comes to that musket, the Shenji Battalion occupies a huge proportion of the three armies. If it gets this musket, it will be more than enough to fight against Japanese pirates from the north, whether it is the Northern Expedition to the Oirat or the overseas Japanese pirates.

Gradually, I became moved, but I didn’t know where the oyster mirror was.

The first reaction was what the Franji people wanted to do there?

Zhu Houzhao didn't care and said, "You may have these things, so I'll go to his house to search."

The Supreme Emperor Hongzhi frowned. Yan Chengjin could not make muskets, especially the price of silk, which has been under pressure for several years.

He said slowly: "The things are left behind, and Xiao's companion sent people out of the palace."

Oves also knew that the emperor would discuss with the ministers.

Without drawings, Wang Gongchang of the court could not make it, so it would be fine to stay in the palace, so he stood up and said goodbye.

"Where are Yan Chengjin summons to court?"

Xiao Jing was stunned and hurriedly said, "It's worth it."
