The strangeness here immediately attracted the attention of other people.
As the number of people increased, Li Junxian and Changsun Wuji stood beside His Majesty Li Er, nervously watching the surrounding situation.
Once any potential danger is discovered, an order will be issued, and hundreds of knights not far away will gather to protect the holy driver.
Li Er was not afraid at all of the people who gathered around him.
People who know how to be grateful can't be bad even if they are bad.
After giving a vague signal to everyone not to act rashly, His Majesty Li Er said:
"As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty. I have offended County Duke Wannian, and I apologize to him here. Folks, please don't take it off. If it is true as you said, County Lord Wannian is really a kind man!"
After hearing His Majesty Li Er's words, the people sighed one after another.
"That's not true. County Prince Wannian is simply our reborn parent. Without the rakes and oxen he provided, how many people would have starved to death!"
"Yes, if we can't farm this year, my family has five people and there is no food. It will be good to have one or two people left next year."
"Who says otherwise? The county magistrate is not only able to contain the plague, he is also a hero in fighting wars. I heard that he also proposed the reform of the imperial examination. Now that he has invented such a farming artifact, he is simply a god sent by God to save the suffering."
"Let me tell you, this is a good world. Now the emperor is wise, the officials are clear, and the wise ministers and generals are gathered together to rule the world."
"I agree with this. If the emperor is a fatuous emperor, he will not use it even if he has talents. This time we can carry out spring plowing in time. In addition to the Zhenguan plow and cattle sold to us by Wannian County Duke at a low price, His Majesty and The imperial court played a key role.”
"If His Majesty hadn't prayed for rain, we wouldn't have had water for farming. If local governments hadn't allocated money to build canals for us, and there wouldn't have been enough water for us to do our best, it's all thanks to Your Majesty's kindness."
Every word I say to you from the common people has become a commendation meeting for His Majesty Li Er and Yang Fan.
What these people didn't notice was that with every compliment they made, the corners of His Majesty Li Er's lips widened even wider, and even a blind man could see that smile.
Little did he know that the middle-aged businessman in front of him was the current emperor.
Seeing this situation, the old man asked in confusion: "What's so funny about businessmen? What we said are all facts?"
Only then did His Majesty Li Er realize that he had lost his composure. Apparently, the old man had misunderstood him.
The people must have thought that they were laughing at them, so they quickly explained: "My fellow countrymen have misunderstood. I also think that your Majesty is wise and powerful, so I am happy to live in this prosperous age."
After everyone heard this, they didn't pursue the matter further and slowly retreated.
Since His Majesty Li Er has no ill intentions, they are still busy digging up the ground!
Changsun Wuji and others couldn't help but cover their faces with their sleeves when they heard His Majesty Li Er boasting about himself.
He said in his heart that this emperor is getting thicker and thicker, which is really embarrassing.
His Majesty Li Er didn't take it seriously. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, obviously he was in a very good mood.
For Li Er, what makes him happier than the people praising the emperor's sage?
This was a great affirmation for him as the emperor, and it also made him know that what he did was correct.
For a moment, His Majesty Li Er was filled with great pride.
What does it mean to be an emperor?
Power, wealth, beauty...there is no shortage of these.
Apart from these, there is only one thing left in history and one that will last forever.
What determines all of this is not the dry written records in history books, but the word of mouth of the common people.
Because the common people have a strong balance in their hearts. Whether the emperor is doing well or not, everyone has a clear mind!
Seeing the people busy and busy, His Majesty Li Er was in a good mood. He turned to Fang Xuanling and asked: "Is the spring plowing situation in the Guanzhong area the same as here?"
"No different!" Fang Xuanling bowed and replied.
At this time, Li Er was completely relieved and secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, today he paid a private visit incognito and heard the inner voices of the people.
But he also knew that whether it was wearing the cow nose rope, praying for rain, or inventing the Zhenguan plow, Yang Fan was responsible for all of this.
Thinking of this boy's contribution, His Majesty Li Er became more and more satisfied with this son-in-law.
I am really discerning and discerning, and I have long realized that this boy is different.
If the aristocratic family members were allowed to win over, it would be a huge loss to the empire and the imperial power.
It seems that we should be nicer to that kid in the future.
His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but regret. He taught Yang Fan too much that day. It would be better for this kid not to hold grudges.
Fortunately, I had the foresight to let my daughter play the family card first.
If not, His Majesty Li Er would really be a little angry given that boy's unstinting temper.
However, no matter how evil that kid is, there is no way he can escape from his grasp.
In the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, Yang Fan's weakness is too obvious!
Not only impulsive, but also emotional, this kind of person is the best to control.
Of course, the more important thing is that this boy likes beautiful women. He Li Er lacks nothing but beautiful women.
Doesn't this guy like beautiful women?
In this case, His Majesty Li Er, who was still somewhat reluctant, decided to send Xu Hui there as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er asked with a smile: "Is that boy still recovering from his injuries in the Hou Mansion?"
Upon hearing His Majesty Li Er's inquiry, Li Junxian immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess just sent a flying letter to report that the Justice of Wannian County rushed to Junyangfang on the Feitian Artifact, and it is said that he also took the Queen with him..."
His Majesty Li Er frowned and shouted: "That's nonsense. Last time I wanted to ride on that thing, didn't that guy say it was dangerous? How could you let Guanyin Maid take the risk?"
"Since you received this news earlier, why didn't you stop it or report it earlier? How did you become the leader of the Hundred Cavalry?"
Of course, in addition to being worried about danger, His Majesty Li Er was actually jealous.
Both his daughter and wife have already made flying artifacts. As the emperor, he couldn't even try it, which made him feel a little unhappy.
Li Junxian wiped his sweat anxiously and quickly explained: "This is a minor dereliction of duty. Please forgive me. According to Her Royal Highness the Princess's letter, this was requested by the Queen herself..."
"The reason why Marquis Zhongyi rushed to Junyangfang this time was because he heard that His Majesty wanted to go to Junyangfang for inspection, so..."
Seeing Li Junxian's anxious look, His Majesty Li Er burst out laughing. He was really making a fuss out of a molehill!
It was all Yang Fan's fault. It was obviously disrespectful to be angry with Li Junxian.
But I'm not very sad at the bottom of my heart. This boy is really lawless. Since he dares to abduct the queen of the empire, aren't he afraid of chopping his head off?
Soon, His Majesty Li Er felt a little proud again.
This kid is not afraid of anything, and only he can overwhelm him.
Now that he has left the palace, no one dares to stop whoever the boy wants to take away.
Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er chuckled and said: "In that case, let's not go anywhere else and rush directly to Junyangfang?"
However, Li Junxian was a little embarrassed and said: "Your Majesty, the incognito schedule has been exposed, how about we go back to the palace first?"
"Now Junyangfang is the largest trading center in the empire. Merchants gather there and customers come like clouds. It is inevitable that it will be chaotic and dangerous."
Are you kidding? In such a chaotic place, how could His Majesty Li Er be involved in danger?
If someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of the chaos and causes damage to His Majesty Li Er, he will not be able to chop off a hundred heads.
What's more, since Yang Fan knows that His Majesty Li Er is going to Junyangfang, it is inevitable that others will also know the itinerary.
In this way, the difficulty of security will be increased several times, and Li Junxian does not want the emperor to be involved in danger.
Of course His Majesty Li Er understands Li Junxian's concerns, but he doesn't take them seriously.
Although there are still some young people who make trouble from time to time, after more than ten years of attacks, they have long been defeated.
Even if you jump out, it will only increase the laughing stock!
How could His Majesty Li Er be afraid of these corrupt people, so he said with a smile: "You, you, the bolder you get, the less courageous you become. I think back then, weak scholars like me and Zhao Guogong dared to go deep into the tiger's den, but now we have the protection of the Tang Dynasty Tiger Ben. What else am I afraid of?"
Li Junxian was a war general after all. He was provoked by His Majesty Li Er and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty is mighty, I am ashamed of you!"
On the side, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others listened with excitement, as if they were back to the time when they were fighting with each other, and they said slightly excitedly:
"I will accompany His Majesty on this journey. Although we don't have the power to restrain a chicken, if someone dares to offend His Majesty's power, our old bodies can still block it."
"I have never doubted the loyalty of the ministers, but you all still have important responsibilities, how can you belittle yourselves?" His Majesty Li Er was very happy and laughed.
Then he said: "Let's hurry up. Guanyin and the maids have already gone to Junyangfang. I shouldn't be coy. Otherwise, wouldn't it just make others laugh?"
Immediately, His Majesty Li Er rode in an ordinary carriage with Li Junxian, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others.
But His Majesty Li Er's carriage just now had a few hundred elite riders ride on it. The purpose was of course to confuse the audience.
What Li Er didn't know was that despite his lofty ambitions, he had already covered his head with dark green.
…
Above the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City!
A balloon-like object rose slowly. After reaching a certain height, the object slowly moved toward the southeast.
At the same time, at the gate of Chang'an City, a group of carriages also drove quickly toward the southeast.
Breakthrough, in a luxurious carriage at the front, little Sizi's head stuck out from the window.
I saw the little princess urging the chamberlain driving the carriage: "Eunuch, can you hurry up? Si Zi is making a bet with his brother-in-law? Let's see who reaches Junyangfang first. My brother-in-law said that if he loses, I will tell three stories to Xiao Sizi!"
Seeing the expectant look on Xiao Sizi's face, the waiter raised his head and glanced at the hot air balloon on the horizon, and suddenly couldn't help but smile.
My little master, no matter how fast a four-legged horse runs, it is impossible to catch up with the speed of flight?
Not even a thousand-mile horse can do it!
Although I know that Xiao Sizi will most likely lose!
But the chamberlain who had watched the little princess grow up couldn't bear to see little Sizi look disappointed.
As a result, the riding whip was waved much more frequently.
Even if there is little hope, it would be good for this little master to be happy for a moment longer
At this moment, he hoped that there was something wrong with the flying artifact so that they could get to Junyangfang first.
Perhaps the chambermaid really has the potential to be like a crow's mouth. Due to the uneven moisture, the air pressure is different, causing the wind direction to change.
The hot air balloon did encounter some difficulties at this time.
The composition of a hot air balloon is very simple. The upper part is a large balloon and the lower part is a hanging basket aircraft.
The gondola can carry passengers and a heat source (mostly an open flame). A hot air balloon relies on internal heating of air, and the hot air acts as a buoyant gas.
This has a lower density than the external cold air, which acts as a buoyancy force to cause the overall displacement.
The bottom of the air bag has a large opening and a hanging basket for cold air heating.
The density of air decreases after heating. When the temperature reaches 100°C, the density is about 0.95kg/m3, which is 1/1.3 of air, so the hot air balloon is not very high when it lifts off.
Due to artificial rainfall, it rained for several days in the Guanzhong area, resulting in unstable air pressure, which also made it difficult to control the hot air balloon.
As an operator, Yang Fan was a little confused at this time.
Because hot air balloons cannot fly freely like airplanes, the direction is not easy to control.
In calm weather, the balloon can only float up and down, but the atmosphere is always moving.
Therefore, the operator can only judge from the perceived wind.
Near the ground, affected by terrain and buildings, the wind direction will change and the wind speed will also decrease.
In windless weather, local vertical air convection will also affect the local air movement in different directions near the surface.
In the morning or evening, from the ground to the air, there are obvious wind direction changes every few meters or more than ten meters, and some even have opposite wind directions.
The balloon operator changes the flight direction of the balloon based on this phenomenon in the atmosphere.
Through the relative movement of the balloon and the ground in the air, the pilot can experience the different directions of each altitude level, control the balloon to rise or fall to the height in the wind direction he needs, and keep flying at this wind level, he can reach the destination he wants to fly to. The purpose of a certain goal.
"First Evolution"
In this way, the hot air balloon can rise and fall, change direction in the air, and fly along a certain "route".
As a novice, Yang Fan still had difficulty judging the wind direction, so the hot air balloon yawed a little.
But Yang Fan didn't notice all this.
As the hot air balloon rose high into the sky, the excitement of Changsun Wujia, who was riding a hot air balloon for the first time, was self-evident.
Watching the majestic and solemn palace become small, watching the usually tall and majestic mountains being stepped on under my feet...
The eldest grandson Wugao was as happy as a little girl.
In my heart, I couldn't help but sigh at the vastness of heaven and earth, and also felt sad that I was locked up in the imperial city like a caged bird.
Looking at the birds flying in front of him, Changsun Wugou felt the value of freedom for the first time.
As the mood relaxed, the whole person smiled like a flower.
Seeing the graceful grandson Wugou as happy as a little girl, Yang Fan secretly praised himself for his foresight.
If there were other people, the queen might not release her nature like this.
Originally, little Sizi wanted to ride in a hot air balloon together, but Yang Fan deliberately made a bet with the little princess in order to create a chance to be alone. Only then did the eldest grandson Wugou and Yang Fan go alone.
At that time, as a clever person, Changsun Wugou was naturally able to understand Yang Fan's thoughts.
However, the line of defense in her heart prevented her from breaking through easily.
You know, the person in front of you is Princess Gaoyang’s husband!
Therefore, after the hot air balloon took off, Changsun Wugou did not talk to Yang Fan, but the beautiful scenery in front of him broke Changsun Wugou's tranquility.
In the distance, the mist covers the mountains in my hometown like a veil. This beautiful scenery is lovely.
The rain stopped, a rainbow bridge was erected in the blue sky, and flowers bloomed on the top of the mountain.
The clusters of small beige flowers under the green leaves look so full of life, and the flowers exude a rich fragrance.
"Ah! It smells so good!"
Changsun Wugou couldn't help but closed his eyes and sighed in admiration.
Yang Fan was also gradually attracted by the beautiful scenery and whispered:
After the rain, the mountains are clean and the smoke from cooking is new everywhere.
The world's conditions are so inadequate, how can our customs be pure?
The old thorns are busy with business, and the lily flowers are empty to realize the spring.
Meeting is not an ancient idea, I am wearing a black scarf.
This song "After the Rain" written by Wang Mian of the Yuan Dynasty was stolen by Yang Fan.
Of course, this time Yang Fan did not deliberately show off, but acted out of emotion.
After hearing Yang Fan's singing, it took Changsun Wujia a while to wake up from the artistic conception of the poem, and he looked at Yang Fan with an unclear expression.
If nothing else, Yang Fan is really an amazing and talented man. He is able to recite such artistic verses casually. He is simply a monster.
I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to have an unclear relationship with such a monster.
At this moment, the wind direction changed suddenly and the entire hot air balloon was blown up.
Hearing an ouch, Changsun Wugou fell to the side.
Yang Fan didn't have time to think, he hugged Changsun Wugou and quickly protected her in his arms.
If this delicate beauty fell down, she would definitely be smashed into a pulp, and Yang Fan would be heartbroken.
But the two people soon discovered that Yang Fan's big hand directly covered the tall shore in the hug just now.
The eldest grandson Wugou was immediately shy.
If what happened last time was an accident, then Yang Fan must have done it on purpose this time, because the kid rubbed his hand gently.
Changsun Wugou wanted to struggle to get away, but unfortunately Yang Fan couldn't let her get what he wanted, and instead hugged her tighter.
The eldest grandson Wugou turned his head and glanced at Yang Fan coquettishly, his red lips parted lightly: "Why don't you let go quickly?"
Yang Fan said seriously: "Empress, Wei Chen already said when we took the hot air balloon that this thing is dangerous. In order to ensure the safety of the Queen, Wei Chen has to be careful."
He said this with confidence, as if he was really thinking about Changsun Wugou's safety.
Regarding Yang Fan's rogue behavior, Changsun Wugou had no choice but to break the jar and throw it down, snorting: "You are a disciple!"
Seeing that Changsun Wugou didn't struggle, Yang Fan chuckled: "Thank you for the compliment!"
Changsun Wugu was really speechless!
This guy is so thick-skinned that he is almost invulnerable.
After taking a look at the ground that was getting smaller and smaller, Changsun Wugou comforted himself.
Anyway, no one saw it, and even the most intimate things were done, so why not let this kid hug her?
What's more, Yang Fan also did it for his own safety.
It's a pity that Changsun Wugou didn't know the danger of doing this.
Because the two of them were so close together, the atmosphere in the empty hot air balloon became increasingly ambiguous.
The two of them did not realize that the hot air balloon had deviated from its course and was not flying towards Junyangfang.
