Chapter 033: Microscope
Hua Gao paused and watched Xue Shu leave in despair. He felt even worse. He took a few steps forward and pushed away a strange guard in front of the Mingxin Hall who probably didn't know his identity and wanted to stop him, and rushed in.
Zhao Xu and Qiao An also broke in.
After entering the door, the first feeling...
So bright!
Compared to the outdoors where dusk has fallen, there are too many candles lit, so the feeling inside the house is almost the same as daytime.
Without enough time to pay attention to these, Hua Gao found a certain little ancestor at a glance.
Zhu Yuan was standing next to a long wooden table that he liked to place everywhere these days. He lowered his head and looked at a small telescope-like instrument. He was still holding a charcoal pen in his other hand and was drawing something.
call--
After confirming that Zhu Yuan was fine, Hua Gao breathed a sigh of relief and finally looked at the others.
There are six people in the room.
There were four people at the long table filled with various utensils and drawings: Zhu Yuan, Dai Sanchun, Cui Shen, and a strange short and stocky man about thirty years old.
In the corner behind Zhu Yuan were two young eunuchs wearing curved black gauze and narrow leader's shirts.
Um……
Um?!
Hua Gao, who was about to look away, turned around again, looked up and down carefully, and confirmed that they were the two young eunuchs.
eunuch……
Hua Gao didn't believe that Zhu Yuan dared to use eunuchs privately.
Then, there is only one possibility.
Doesn't the lord no longer intend to hide a certain secret? He even sent eunuchs here?
A voice came to his ears, interrupting Hua Gao's thoughts.
Zhu Yuan raised his head from the microscope, glanced at the three people who entered the door, turned to Hua Gao, and said with a smile: "My lord is back, has it been a smooth journey?"
Hua Gao quickly looked back and said with a grin: "It went well, it went well. I even caught some miscellaneous fish." After saying that, he saw Zhu Yuan still holding the charcoal pencil in his hand and waved his hand: "We will talk about this tomorrow, and Xie will continue painting. I’ll see for myself.”
Zhu Yuan nodded to Zhao Xu and Qiao An again, and then turned to the two people behind him: "Let the kitchen prepare, Mr. Hua will have dinner together later."
He Xuan agreed and sent the eunuch next to him in a low voice to go to the kitchen to explain the matter.
Zhu Yuan lowered his head again, looked at the microscope and continued to draw.
Hua Gao waved his hand for Zhao Xu and Qiao An to leave, and turned to the short and stocky man in the room.
When the man saw Hua Gao looking at him, he temporarily let go of the microscope in front of him and wanted to salute. However, it was inconvenient to be separated by a long table, so he could only clasp his fists and lower his voice and said: "I heard that I have met the governor."
Hua Gao nodded slightly. He also knew the nature of the Guards Division and didn't say much.
After Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen greeted each other again, they finally gestured to the table in front of them: "What kind of microscope is this...?"
Hua Gao still knew what the Equipment Bureau of Tai Hospital, which Cui Shen was in charge of, had been doing.
When Hua Gao asked, Dai Sanchun, who was always serious on weekdays, showed a bit of excitement. With a rare gesture of offering treasures to ask for credit, he said softly: "Yes, sir... Sir, come and see."
He said giving up the position in front of him.
Hua Gao walked over, followed Dai Sanchun's instructions, bent down and put his eyes in front of a microscope, and looked at it carefully.
In the round light blue field of vision, Hua Gao soon saw some small bugs similar to the soles of shoes slowly squirming. He also noticed that the larger one seemed to be devouring something around him.
After a moment, Hua Gao looked away and looked sideways at the crystal sheet under the microscope.
Apart from a trace of blue, there is nothing to the naked eye.
Then he turned to the camera again.
It turns out...the microscope...this...is what is invisible to the naked eye...that...
Looking away again, Hua Gao simply reached out and took off the crystal sheet under the lens, and looked closely at it. There was still only a touch of blue. Without a microscope, nothing could be seen with the naked eye.
He put the crystal sheet back under the lens and leaned closer again. Those little bugs appeared in his field of vision again.
Watching so intently, Hua Gao unconsciously began to open his mouth slightly.
I finally understood why those people on the road looked like that.
Like...
Suddenly one day, everyone saw ghosts that they had never encountered before, and they were all around them, floating around very close at hand.
How can you not be surprised?
How can you not feel emotional?
How can you not be shocked?
When Hua Gao once again took off the crystal sheet and put it in front of his eyes to try to distinguish it with the naked eye, Dai Sanchun took the initiative to speak, as if he was afraid of disturbing something and whispered: "Sir, Hanlin said this is a paramecium, only one thousandth of an inch." One size. Hanlin told me before, 'One flower, one world'. I couldn't believe it, but today I finally saw it with my own eyes."
Dai Sanchun said, thinking about everything this morning again.
Last night, Zhu Yuan said that the microscope lacked fill light, which would affect the observation. Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen made several small fill light mirrors overnight, and tried again this morning, and even ran outdoors to a well-lit area.
Because he had failed too many times before, Dai Sanchun did not expect to succeed today. However, he did succeed and successfully saw the so-called 'cells' on the film of a leaf.
Then, there is this whole day.
Dai Sanchun saw a new and huge world.
The story spread quickly.
Not only people around Zhu Yuan, but also people from all over Dinghai County who were qualified to enter the Yinghai Ambassador's residence, all came to see the strange thing after hearing the news. Many of them had their knowledge refreshed and left in a daze.
While everyone lamented the wonder of the microscope, Dai Sanchun understood how important today's discovery would be to the development of medicine!
As Zhu Yuan said, many diseases are caused by microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses that are invisible to the naked eye. Now, since we can see them, even if they are only a few, it means that in the future, we can think The method is to try to prescribe more precise medicine to the case.
It can be said that the successful creation of a microscope is definitely a great achievement that benefits hundreds of millions of people.
After another failed attempt, Hua Gao finally gave up distinguishing with the naked eye, turned to Dai Sanchun, and asked: "Paramecium, why is this... blue?"
"Added indigo," Dai Sanchun took the crystal sheet from Hua Gao's hand, put it aside, and replaced it with another crystal sheet, saying at the same time: "Under the microscope, many things are transparent and colorless and need to be dyed to distinguish them. "
After saying that, he lowered his head to adjust it, and then handed it over to Hua Gao: "Look, sir, these are pine needles. Compared with paramecium, you can see the cells, but they are a little smaller. Hanlin said that a higher-magnification lens needs to be made."
Hua Gao lowered his head and looked again.
While discussing here, Zhu Yuan finished drawing a sketch of the structure of leek cells based on the microscope image. He put down the charcoal and looked at the opposite side. Wen Zao said: "Now that you have learned how to use it, you can bring a microscope back to Jinling tomorrow, my ancestors." I definitely want to see it as soon as possible.”
Even though it had been a whole day, Wen Zao's expression still showed disbelief. After hearing what Zhu Yuan said, the archguard Si Baihu immediately clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I want to set off immediately and rush to Jinling overnight."
Thinking about Zhao Xu and Zuo Qi, and thinking about Mao Xiang who had been promoted to the third rank of commander, Wen Zao understood that it was easy to achieve success on this current mission.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived, a piece of credit came to my door.
Compared with ordinary transmission of messages, the hearing was clear, and under the microscope... Such an amazing series of discoveries were sent to the Lord as early as possible, and his credit was even greater.
When Zhu Yuan heard what Zao said, he did not object and said with a smile: "If you are not afraid of walking at night, then go ahead. Well... I still have some letters as usual, wait a moment and let them sort them out."
After speaking, he turned around and ordered He Xuan.
He Xuan agreed and left in a hurry.
When He Xuan got back the work diary of the past few days from Xieyi and the others, a microscope was also packed here.
After sending Wen Zao away, it was already darkening completely, so we all went to the restaurant next door to have dinner.
The topic also continues to be related to microscopy.
Zhu Yuan was also very excited about the success of the microscope, so much so that he did nothing else all day today and kept helping Dai Sanchun to perfect the debugging.
However, it's just a bit of excitement.
Zhu Yuan understood better that successfully building a microscope was only a small step for new medicine.
There's still a long way to go.
At the same time, after careful consideration today, Zhu Yuan also realized that microscopes can definitely be used not only in medicine, but also in many other fields that can be used in the future.
Didn’t continue after dinner.
After a busy day, he neglected to take a nap today, and Zhu Yuan had no energy to do anything else.
After Hua Gao and his entourage said goodbye and left, Zhu Yuan returned to the inner house, and the freehand ladies immediately greeted him, with curiosity on their expressions.
The girls here obviously also know about the microscope, but today there are various people coming and going outside. As female relatives, a group of women, big and small, are responsible and do not run around.
"Bring one over tomorrow to show you the novelty."
Before the girls could speak, Zhu Yuan said with a smile.
Hot water has been prepared in the inner house.
Zhu Yuan took a shower, went to the bedroom, got into bed, and started his work diary as usual.
The main discussion is about microscopes.
After dictating the diary, he took today's manuscript from Luo Shuihui and revised it. Just as he was about to go to bed, he noticed that Qing Niang was hesitant to speak and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Qing Niang looked at the freehand paintings.
Zhu Yuan smiled and motioned to the other three women: "You go and have a rest first. Qing Niang and I will have a private chat."
The three women went out obediently.
The freehand brushwork is no different from Luoshui, but when the curtain is left blank, it curls the lips.
Lame.
Don't you just want to find an excuse to occupy the small bedroom outside?
After the three girls left, Zhu Yuan looked at Qing Niang.
Qing Niang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Young official, I have two younger brothers... I heard that there will be an imperial examination this autumn?"
Zhu Yuan understood: "You want them to give it a try?"
Qing Niang nodded.
Zhu Yuan suddenly changed his tone: "Are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
Qing Niang shook her head quickly: "No, slave...I am very grateful that the official can take Wen Heng and the others to Jiangnan, slave..."
Looking at the woman who was too nervous to speak, Zhu Yuan continued: "You just said...who mentioned that there will be an imperial examination this autumn?"
Qing Niang was startled for a moment, shook her head subconsciously, and lowered her gaze with a guilty conscience.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Zhu Yuan said slowly: "It's fate to be able to come to my side. If your two brothers have real talents and learn well and do good work, they will be rich in the future. But if you want
It's not impossible to take shortcuts from me. The question depends on whether they have the ability. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything about them that can make me look at them differently."
Qing Niang's head dropped lower and her body began to tremble slightly.
Zhu Yuan paused briefly, then continued: "They are both smart and know how to behave, so I don't need to say anything on weekdays. As for you, stupid woman, you don't have any opinions, so I can only make it clear to you, and you will stay at home obediently from now on."
Here, cook a meal, sew some clothes, and if you have a child in the future, take care of the child. You are not allowed to talk about anything else, do you understand?"
When Qing Niang heard certain words, she raised her head suddenly and nodded again and again like a chicken pecking at rice.
Zhu Yuan touched a pillow from the side and threw it over: "Kneel down and remember."
Qing Niang knelt down softly in obedience, but did not use the pillow to cushion her. She picked it up, patted the dust, and carefully placed it on the stool next to her. She raised her head and glanced over, as if to confirm whether she heard correctly just now. She saw her little girl.
The official was already lying down, and he wanted to go forward and cover him with a quilt.
Thinking that he was being punished, he didn't dare to move.
Zhu Yuan pulled up the quilt by himself, glanced at the woman not far under the bed, and suddenly smiled again: "I plan to eat a big white sheep on my birthday, what do you think?"
Qing Niang's eyes were confused: "What do you want to do with me, slave..."
"Stupid woman," Zhu Yuan didn't wait for her to continue, grabbed another pillow and threw it over: "I have washed myself white these days, just wait."
Qing Niang had just carefully picked up the pillow and put it next to her when she suddenly understood and her body started to tremble again. This time it was because of excitement that her face instantly turned red. She looked over and softly called out in a soft voice: "Young official
people……"
Zhu Yuan ignored it and just murmured with emotion: "The affairs of the family and the state are the affairs of the world."
No matter what.
