Lecturers have a working meal.

After Yang Tinghe and others left, Zhu Houzhao finally remembered to leave Zhao Ce for lunch in his East Palace this time.

Everyone taught the prince together, but Yongxibo was left behind and had lunch with the prince.

Many people are a little envious of this.

A discerning person can tell at a glance that the prince's attitude towards Yongxibo is different from those who are also called Mr.

Zhu Houzhao had already ordered someone to get good wine and food.

He personally took Zhao Ce to sit down and asked Liu Jin to cook food next to Zhao Ce.

Zhao Ce was not uncomfortable either. After thanking him directly, he sat down.

"Yongxibo, cannonballs can be calculated by parabola. Is the same true for that musket?"

Before dinner, Zhu Houzhao took the time to ask.

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "Yes."

"But now our Ming Dynasty's muskets do not have much calculated value."

In fact, no matter what gun, the final damage comes from parabola damage.

Instead of shooting straight.

But the farthest distance of the Ming Dynasty's muskets is only three or four hundred meters.

Moreover, after a distance of three or four hundred meters, it is estimated that it is a bit difficult to break the skin.

Once the enemy wears armor, it may be within fifty meters before it can play its true role.

On the contrary, although the range of shells is not far, it is only three or four hundred meters.

But the shells that have always been blindly shot.

In the early days of the establishment of the State Dynasty, the targets of artillery attack were large ships, etc.

Nowadays, artillery has developed a lot and there are many types.

According to Zhao Ce’s understanding over the past year, the gunpowder of the Ming Dynasty can be regarded as a dual cultivation of poisonous fire.

However, the damage caused by fire is actually limited due to the range and accuracy issues.

As for ammunition such as shotguns that may cause large-scale damage, it cannot be used due to steel.

Therefore, it can kill and damage on a large scale, and can withstand the poison that does not require targeting will be more popular on the battlefield.

The poison used by Zhao Ce when he was defending the city before also used similar principles.

Moreover, when poisoning, not only the other party will be poisoned, but also the ones will be harmed.

Therefore, you also need to equip your own people with special antidotes.

The cost of poison is higher after all.

So, when fighting now, you can actually not use this if you can.

When the current steel quality and spring limit the range of the artillery, it can improve the accuracy of shell landing more accurately than before, which will definitely improve the role of the artillery on the battlefield.

Zhu Houzhao listened to Zhao Ce's explanation slowly, and was so intoxicated that he could hear it.

When it comes to weapons, he is always the most concerned.

Until the palace servant arranged the meal, Liu Jin whispered.

Zhu Houzhao came to her senses and ended the topic reluctantly.

He is now a mature prince, and he can't keep pestering Yongxibo asking questions.

After today's work is over, he will slowly ask Yongxibo for advice.

After dinner, I put some fruits and vegetables on it.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it and asked Liu Jin to come out with a heavy wooden box.

He handed it directly to Zhao Ce: "Yong Xibo seems to be quite good at studying the court's firearms."

"I happened to have a good thing, and I will give it to Yongxibo today."

Zhu Houzhao said, for some reason, suddenly laughed a little happy.

He leaned over and said in a low voice: "You open it and take a look."

Thinking of the clay figures or sculptures that Zhu Houzhao gave him before, Zhao Ce had no hope for this gift.

Such a big box is probably a big sculpture, right?

After the wooden box was opened, Zhao Ce's eyes widened.

Zhu Houzhao looked at him with a little surprised look and laughed at him.

"How about it? I'll give you this gift. Next time you go to the palace to give lectures, I'll talk about some related knowledge about weapons. How about it?"

It was heavy, exquisitely crafted wooden box, and there was a musket inside it.

The surface of the musket has exquisite patterns, and even a dazzling sapphire is inlaid on it.

Zhao Ce reached out and picked it up, saying curiously: "Can this musket work?"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were stuck to his treasure.

Hearing Zhao Ce's words, he quickly said, "Of course!"

"When I got it back, I tried two shots and was reluctant to use it again!"

"This is the most well-made musket in the Ming Dynasty today!"

"There are also several rounds of ammunition here."

"But you have to save some use, and try not to use it in the capital, so that others will not find out."

Muskets are not allowed to be held privately.

Zhu Houzhao was obtained by using a lot of tricks.

After getting it, he was reluctant to use it too many times.

Because the person who sent it said that if the firearm is used too much, it will easily explode.

If it weren't for the content of Zhao Ce's lecture today, Zhu Houzhao would have been reluctant to send it out.

Of course, it also has his own selfishness when sent out.

He had just reminded him secretly.

Zhao Ce seems to be quite good at studying these firearms.

The weapon he sent out naturally hopes to inspire Yongxibo more.

If it can really be improved unexpectedly, it will naturally be better.

His Royal Highness's wishful thinking was a joke, and Zhao Ce, who was standing aside, heard it completely.

However, Zhao Ce also happily accepted this gift.

Although I have some theoretical knowledge, only with the real thing in hand can I cooperate with theoretical knowledge and inspire more.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kind gift, I accepted it."

When Zhu Houzhao saw Zhao Ce accepting it, he also knew that he understood his intentions.

He couldn't help but look forward to his next lecture.

There was no class after noon, and the group was waiting for the master to preach the scriptures.

The place where the scriptures are taught is still in the main hall of Wenhua Hall.

The palace people were busy decorating the venue, so Zhu Houzhao asked Zhao Ce to rest in his side hall.

He said it was a rest, but he was still following Zhao Ce and asked questions.

After asking, he talked about the afternoon lecture of Buddhist scriptures.

The master who taught the Buddhist scriptures this time was the Tibetan monk Zhabajian.

He has profound Buddhist teachings and is not the first time he has entered the palace to preach.

When he heard Zhu Houzhao talk about the Buddhist scriptures with great enthusiasm, Zhao Ce asked: "Why did Your Majesty suddenly summon the master to the palace to preach the scriptures today?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "My father was not in good spirits recently, so he thought about listening to the scriptures to relieve his spirits."

"The Dharma is profound. If you listen to the master's lecture, you can understand the essence of the Dharma."

"I guess it will also be of great benefit to my father's body."

Ineffective...

I am afraid that listening to monks chanting this scripture alone does not have the function of prolonging life, right?

But seeing Zhu Houzhao's admiration, Zhao Ce did not sing a counter-topic with him, and directly said something belittled.

Thinking of my recent proficiency in Tai Chi, I simply suggested: "Your Highness, I have practiced a set of boxing skills recently."
