Feng Liuzhang was noncommittal and said, "You go down too."

The housekeeper let out a hey and went down.

Anran had an appointment with Xia Yiyan early this morning, before coming to the imperial study, Wuyou fell asleep again, Yueli has been staying in the palace for the past few days, and today she wants to go back to the mansion.

Everything in the Grand Tutor's Mansion was in order, and nothing happened that Yueli needed to worry about, and Yueli wandered out of the Taifu's Mansion again.

Now that it has come out, Yue Li thinks that the dozen or so halls are about to be completed, why not go to the Ministry of Industry to say hello, and ask people from the Ministry of Industry to help make some plaques, and leave it for Feng Qiyue to inscribe on the halls use.

When Yueli met Jimo, Jimo pulled Yueli away from the crowd and went to the inner room anxiously.

Yueli asked in surprise, "What happened?"

Jimo said seriously, "What is your relationship with His Majesty?"

Yue Li smiled and said, "Why do you ask that?"

Ji Mo said: "It has been spread in the court that it is because of you that your majesty does not marry the queen and does not accept the emperor."

Yueli said: "It's not wrong to say that."

"You are really with Your Majesty..." Jimo sighed again, "Since ancient times, those who were favored by the emperor as women were often said to be ministers of good fortune, and those women were often punished for the crime of dirty palace, and their fate was miserable. If you don't get out in time now, I'm afraid you won't end well."

Yue Li said: "Did the news about me and Your Majesty come from Fang Xiang?"

Ji Mo said: "It's related to the poor family officials, this matter is different from others, and the officials of the aristocratic faction can't tolerate this matter."

Yueli said: "What about you?"

Jimo said: "As a friend, I don't want to see your miserable end. To be honest, I always thought that you are the person who hates disputes and troubles the most, but this time you have found yourself a life-threatening trouble. I also hope you can get away soon."

Yue Li smiled and said, "Then as a friend, can you do me a favor?"

Jimo said: "You say it, but if you can do it, I will naturally help you."

Yueli said: "Fang Xiang didn't like me very much before, this time she might not let me go, Wang Qing is my junior sister, but Fang Xiang is her mentor, she is sandwiched between the two of us It is bound to be very embarrassing, if you have nothing to do, go to Ah Qing, take her to eat, drink and have fun with you, just don't let her have the energy to get involved in this matter, of course you are the same."

Yueli's intention seems to mean that he will not leave His Majesty, Jimo sighed: "You don't need my help?"

Yue Li smiled and said: "If you can do this, I won't have any worries. This is a great favor to me."

Jimo said: "Although I don't know your plan, you have to know that I hope to help you do something rather than stay out of it. I believe that Wang Qing thinks the same as me."

Yue Li smiled and said: "It's just that you don't need to intervene for the time being, and you will be needed to help in the future."

With the fact that he was cheated before, Ji Mo seems to believe it: "Aren't you lying to me again?"

Yue Li smiled Chun Liang: "How could that be?"

Ji Mo shook her head, she should play it by ear.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 65 Meteorite Iron

Knowing that Yueli came to the Ministry of Industry, Sima Liu smiled and came to ask to see him. Ji Moxiao said to Yueli: "You built the research room of the Ministry of Industry for them. Let you be happy too, Xiao Liu has worked hard these past few months, and the results are gratifying, just let her go and have a look."

After hearing this, Yue Li didn't let Jimo follow her. He followed Sima Liu to her laboratory, and Ji Mo was not polite to Yue Li. Yue Li, the former minister of the Ministry of Industry, was very familiar with the Ministry of Industry.

Along the way, Yueli met craftsmen from other laboratories, and they all greeted Yueli enthusiastically, and Yueli responded to them one by one with a smile.

Sima Liu happily showed Yueli the new iron she made. Yueli saw that it was much better than a few months ago, and asked Sima Liu how to improve it. Sima Liu took Yueli to see her new iron. iron furnace.

Yueli followed Sima Liu into a large room, and as soon as he entered, there was a hot làng rushing towards his face. The newly built iron-making furnace in the room was much more scientific than the previous one. It was just a one-meter-high one made of stones before. The oval ironmaking furnace has a small hole on the lower side of the furnace body. A special blast bag made by Sima is used to blow air into the furnace through the small hole. The temperature in the furnace is higher than that of other naturally blasting furnaces. , This is why the ironware made by the Sima family was much stronger than others.

But now the new iron-making furnace has been changed into a large oval furnace with a height of more than four meters made of refractory clay and stones. Firstly, the furnace is better sealed, and secondly, the furnace can accommodate more wood. The temperature in the furnace has been greatly increased, and the iron smelted is also much better. What Sima Liu showed Yueli was the iron smelted in the new furnace, but it is still a few percent worse than the iron of later generations. The smelting furnace is good, but if the method of iron smelting remains unchanged, it will be difficult to improve the iron smelting.

At this time, the craftsmen are taking turns pushing the air bag to blow air into the furnace, and all of them are sweating profusely.Yueli asked Sima Liudao: "What is burning in your furnace?"

Sima Liu chuckled and said, "It's the high-quality wood used. In the past, grassroots people didn't dare to be so extravagant. Now that they have changed the wood, the temperature of the furnace has increased a lot, and the new iron produced has much less impurities."

Yueli pondered for a moment and said to Sima Liu, "Get your pen and ink here."

Sima Liu was busy.

Yueli was scribbling and drawing on the paper, and Sima Liu was watching quietly, but after watching for a long time, he didn't know what Yueli was drawing.

After a while, Yueli drew two pictures, one was a water drainage, the other was an earthen kiln for burning charcoal and its construction method.

When Sima Liu saw that Yueli had finished the painting, he guessed that these two objects might also be related to ironmaking, so he quickly asked how they were used.

Yueli pointed to the various structures of the water row and introduced them one by one: "This is called the horizontal shaft, the one on the top is called the vertical wheel, and the one in the middle of the horizontal shaft is called the dial. Push this connecting rod and crank, and the crank is connected to the blower bag you made, and you can push the air bag and push the blower."

Sima Liuting's eyes lit up. She has been smelting iron for so many years, so she naturally knows the importance of blowing wind. If the wind is insufficient, the wood is difficult to burn, and the temperature cannot meet the requirements of iron making. The Sima family used the blowing bag developed by themselves. It is better than others, but that water row is much better than the Sima family's manual blowing, and he couldn't help saying: "It's wonderful, it's wonderful. Since the people rebuilt the furnace, they also feel that it is difficult to use human blowing to meet their needs, and they are thinking about improving it." For livestock, this thing called water row has a peculiar structure and can use water conservancy, so that it can continuously blow air into the furnace, and you can also open a few more blowing ports on the furnace to increase the ventilation. Wood burns more vigorously."

Sure enough, he is an expert and listens to the door. Sima Liu can understand the function of water drainage so quickly, and can use it by analogy. It is commendable. Yueli pointed to the charcoal kiln and said: "This is more important. Burning in the charcoal kiln, when the fire from the wood turns red, the kiln is closed, and after the smoke and fire in the kiln are all extinguished, what is obtained is called charcoal. Charcoal can remove impurities in iron ore, and can generate high temperature when burning. Put charcoal and iron ore alternately into the iron smelting furnace, and then blow the air with the water row. The temperature in the furnace can make the iron stone melt into molten iron. It can flow out immediately, and the iron furnace does not need to be cooled, and then charcoal and iron ore can be added to continue iron smelting."

Sima Liu rubbed her hands excitedly. Although she didn't understand why charcoal could remove impurities in iron ore and bring a higher temperature than burning wood directly, but if it was true, the combination of water drainage and charcoal would Melting iron stones into molten iron is no longer a problem, and all the problems encountered in iron smelting can be solved. Master Xie can teach me these two methods, but it is a great kindness to me.

Yue Li said with a smile: "Go and try."

Sima Liu couldn't stay here for a long time, she wanted to get someone to build the water drainage and carbon kiln as soon as possible, so she solemnly made a big gift to Yueli, and trotted away.
