Li Yuanzhao stood firm, grinned and waved his hand towards Fang Zhengyi.
Fang Zheng didn't feel anything when he fell down, but the officials around him were frightened.
They all shouted: "Your Highness is in danger! Come down quickly, come down quickly, it's enough to let him demonstrate by himself."
Li Yuanzhao clasped his hands in the shape of a trumpet and said loudly: "It doesn't matter, I have experience! Father, do you want to come up and take a look?"
Fang Zheng was agitated all over, and he quickly said to Emperor Jing: "Your Majesty, it's better not to go. I'll accompany him to have a look."
After all, the emperor is the emperor, the backbone of a country.
Not to mention flying into the sky, even the slightest risk will cause strong dissatisfaction from others.
He might as well go there by himself, and he just wanted to go up to the sky to have a look. He had never sat on such a thing in his previous life.
And he can still trust Xiao Letian's level.
Fang Zheng walked straight towards the rattan basket. When he reached the basket, he quickly turned over and got into the basket.
After standing firm, he patted Xiao Letian's shoulder and said, "Xiao Letian, do it well. Don't be nervous. I'm here to accompany you, principal."
Li Yuanzhao glanced at Emperor Jing who was still staying in the same place, feeling a little proud in his heart.
"Haha, it seems that my father's courage is still far behind compared to this palace."
Fang Zhengyi shrugged and did not answer.
Emperor Jing was keenly aware of Li Yuanzhao's gaze, and his face gradually darkened.
What does this beast look like? Are you laughing at my lack of courage?
The hot air balloon was still tied to the stone railing and hovering in place. Xiao Letian was about to let someone untie the rope.
Emperor Jing suddenly moved and walked toward the hot air balloon with steady steps.
I originally wanted to flip in, but at this height... the action was a bit inelegant.
So he said: "Lower this ball first. Since the prince has said so, I will accompany you to see it."
Fang Zheng was stunned: "Your Majesty, do you really want to go up? In fact... it's still a bit dangerous."
"You two are not afraid, how could I be afraid?" Emperor Jing said calmly: "Okay, come down."
The hot air balloon began to land smoothly under Xiao Letian's control. When the officials saw Emperor Jing entering the rattan basket, they immediately became restless.
Why did Your Majesty get in? Even if you are the emperor, you cannot go to heaven casually!
Li Yansong panicked and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, no! This thing is too dangerous, you must not put yourself in danger!"
Immediately afterwards, someone else began to kneel down and howled: "Your Majesty has a body of thousands of gold, you must not take such a risk!"
"Your Majesty, please watch in the palace!"
Faced with the constant requests from the ministers, Emperor Jing frowned slightly and said: "Everyone, get up! Could it be that my son and son-in-law will harm me? They are all so timid and afraid of getting into trouble, how can they behave like this!"
After saying this, he no longer cared about the reactions of the ministers and turned to Xiao Letian: "Let's start taking off. I have been looking forward to it for a long time."
Xiao Letian's heart was throbbing. Since the emperor had spoken personally, there was no reason not to listen!
The next second, Xiao Letian untied the rope tied to the edge of the rattan basket, and the hot air balloon slowly flew away.
The ministers watched in despair as the hot air balloon rose little by little...until the height gradually exceeded the main hall!
On top of the rattan basket, Emperor Jing was clutching the edge of the rattan basket with both hands, his face a little pale.
I regret it... As this thing rises, a strange feeling rushes through my body, and I feel even more unsure.
But now that he has come up, his dignity as an emperor cannot be lost.
Li Yuanzhao and Xiao Letian were experienced and had no special reaction.
Fang Zhengyi felt pretty good. Although he had never ridden in a hot air balloon in his previous life, the office building was so tall!
When he had time, he would lie by the window and dream about jumping off and liberating himself from his fucked up life.
Now this height is nothing, and it runs smoothly.
Seeing that Emperor Jing was a little nervous, Fang Zhengyi said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, don't look down. It's better to look far away to see the scenery."
Emperor Jing raised his head unconsciously, and as the hot air balloon rose, the full view of the palace gradually emerged before his eyes.
The sun shines down, and the tiles of the countless palaces in the palace glow with golden light, making them beautiful and majestic.
The four of them were mesmerized by this rare beauty.
But the officials below were even more panicked!
The hot air balloon has floated higher and higher, and now it is just a larger black dot when viewed from below, in case His Majesty and the Prince really fall from this height.
The consequences would be disastrous!
The ministers looked at each other, and suddenly someone asked: "If we continue to ascend, won't we reach the thirty-sixth level of heaven? Will there be a heavenly palace on the top of the sky?"
With this question, everyone's attention was quickly diverted and they looked to the sky with great curiosity.
Yes, if you fly so high, will you go directly to the Heavenly Palace?
"Zhengyi, is there a heavenly palace in the sky?" Emperor Jing looked at the sky, with a faint gleam in his eyes.
Li Yuanzhao covered his mouth and was happy. It seemed that everyone in heaven had this question, but his father's dream would eventually come true.
The hot air balloon will definitely not be able to fly.
How to explain this? Fang Zheng thought for a moment and said, "I think there shouldn't be any, otherwise I would be able to see it with the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Mirror."
Well, that makes sense.
Emperor Jing smiled, looking at the vastness of the world, his mind suddenly became brighter.
As time went by, he gradually adapted to the environment. After being amazed in his heart, he said to Fang Zheng: "Explain to me now why the hot air balloon was not taken out until now, and why the prince secretly sent troops to Yishun?"
Fang Zhengyi had already prepared his words: "Your Majesty, please let Rong Chen explain clearly from the beginning. When the hot air balloon was invented, it could not be controlled from the sky. But then there was an opportunity. Did your Majesty remember the article written by Xiao Letian? paper?"
Emperor Jing thought about it quickly and showed a look of sudden realization: "I remember that it was the article about airflow. Could it be that this article is the key to controlling the hot air balloon?"
"That's it. Xiao Letian can be said to have taken the greatest credit..."
After hearing this, Emperor Jing couldn't help but patted Xiao Letian's shoulder and praised: "Good...good, you are such a great talent. It seems that everyone in the world has misunderstood you."
Xiao Letian silently adjusted the valve under the kerosene jar when he heard Fang Zhengyi report his merits to him.
His eyes gradually became moist, and he quietly lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes.
It’s been months! From the beginning, he was envied by thousands of people, and then he was talked about behind his back.
I don’t know how many grievances I have experienced in my heart, but now I have been proven!
And it was proven in front of the emperor!
At this moment, Xiao Letian felt relieved... All the depression was resolved at this moment.
"Caomin, thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
When Fang Zheng saw the grateful look he gave him, he smiled back.
Then he continued to say to Emperor Jing: "Since I learned that hot air balloons can both ascend to the sky and be controlled, I originally thought that after my subordinates could skillfully operate them, I would come up with a perfect result and report it to Your Majesty as soon as possible. But I heard from the prince that Yishun... ..”
"Father, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with Lao Fang." Li Yuanzhao saw the opportunity and said.
According to his understanding of Fang Zhengyi, he must have taken all the blame on himself.
It seems very considerate, but according to past experience, he is always the one who gets beaten in the end...
Li Yuanzhao knelt on the ground, looking extremely obedient. He raised his head and said to Emperor Jing: "It was the son who asked Lao Fang for 200 men. After training in private, he sent them to the battlefield. He wanted to report it several times, but the son forced him to die. Down."
"Ever since I was little, I have only wanted to show off my talents on the battlefield! This is a rare opportunity. Even if I am in the capital, I am satisfied."
"Father, if you want to be beaten or punished, just punish me!"
Emperor Jing stared at Li Yuanzhao, hesitating for a moment between fighting or not: "Get up, since you have won this battle, you can be considered meritorious."
"Thank you, Father." Li Yuanzhao stood up happily.
Seeing his heartless look, Emperor Jing became angry and said in a cold voice: "If you want to do anything wrong in the future, don't get involved with Zhengyi, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless."
Li Yuanzhao smiled and held the edge of the rattan basket to appear as insignificant as possible.
The hot air balloon was still climbing, and suddenly a thin cloud appeared in front of us.
Emperor Jing saw clouds floating around him, and his whole body felt cold, but his heart was filled with heat.
You can pluck clouds with your hands and fly to such a height!
Fang Zhengyi immediately said in surprise: "Congratulations to Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"Oh? How happy are you?"
Fang Zheng crouched slightly, half a head shorter than Emperor Jing, and said with excitement: "To be able to reach such a height, no one among the ancient and modern emperors can compare with your Majesty? Your Majesty's martial arts skills are far ahead of those of the past. , I didn’t expect that my vision is so high that it is unprecedented and unparalleled! He is truly the emperor of the ages, and he deserves the title!”
"Therefore, I lost control of my emotions! I can't help but congratulate Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"?!"
One emperor through the ages, far ahead of his predecessors, no one before him, no one after him...
In the cold wind, the fire in Emperor Jing's heart was instantly detonated!
The emperor's dignity and serious expression could no longer be maintained at this moment.
Suddenly, a burst of hearty laughter gradually came from the clouds...
