"When..." "When..." "When..." As soon as the hour arrives, a long bell sounded in the bell and drums. This is the first bell of the new year, which is expected to be the beginning of the new year, and it is people's yearning for the new year to have good weather and everything flourishing.

"Aoao New Year is here..." I looked at the queen and others happily and happily, and I couldn't say anything happy. All the eunuchs and maids in the palace also smiled happily. At this moment, the capital Bianliang was full of firecrackers and people's cheerful laughter.

"Your Majesty, the New Year is here, you should send a red envelope haha." The queen and others surrounded me and asked me for red envelopes.

"You should go and ask the elder Empress Dowager, why do you ask me for red envelopes?"

"You are the Master of Life, you are rich all over the world. If you don't want to ask for anyone you want," Chu Yun came over and held my hand and kept shaking it.

"Okay, okay, okay, give it to me, you guys go back first, I'll give it to you later when I eat dumplings, okay?" I said to these wives in a doting way.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back and eat dumplings together in the house." After saying that, the queen took my concubines all the way back to the central palace. Looking at them jumping around, I couldn't say anything happy.

"Xiao Muzi" called Mu Fengchun who was commanding the eunuchs to clean the square.

"Your Majesty, what are your instructions?"

"Xiao Muzi, it's the Chinese New Year, it's not easy for everyone this year. Let's send everyone a red envelope and send it to everyone. One person will pay the profit for half a year."

With a "puzzle", Mu Fengchun suddenly knelt at my feet, wiping her tears and said to me, "Long live the emperor, I didn't expect that the first thing you did in this New Year is to care about us eunuchs and palace maids without roots, emperor, I will take everyone, thank you, the emperor."

"Okay, okay, get up. It's not easy to be busy for a year. You can arrange it quickly and send it all."

"Yes, the emperor, I will do it now."

"Wait a minute, Xiao Muzi"

"Long lively, what else do you have to give?"

"Xiao Muzi, where is your family from? What relatives do you have in your family?" I asked

"Reply to the emperor, I am from Jiangling. I also have an older brother and an old lady in my family. I just don't know if I am still there." Mu Fengchun said sadly.

"Then you haven't been home in years."

"Long live my life, I haven't been home for almost twenty years."

"Twenty years?! It's been so long, Xiao Muzi, I've allowed you to go back to your hometown to visit your relatives, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pay a thousand stagnant of money, a thousand taels of silver, hire an eight-carriage sedan, and go home in a glorious manner. If everyone in the family is there, they will all come to Bianliang. Now, you can't have no home all the time."

"Your Majesty, are you saying true?" Mu Fengchun didn't believe his ears at all and asked me in a daze.

"I am the emperor, how can I lie to you? Go quickly, and if you send a red envelope to everyone, you can leave."

"Yes, yes, I thank the emperor for his kindness." Mu Fengchun was moved and lay on the ground and cried. I didn't know how to persuade him, so I patted his shoulder and walked towards the central palace.

When I returned to the central palace, a wife sent a jade bracelet and a pair of pearl earrings. Their little maids, including my Yudie, gave me a silver bracelet. It was also a joy. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the ministers came to the palace to greet me and the Queen Mother. I happily received the red envelopes I sent to them. Not one person had a golden leaf, so I was also willing to bring them. On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the morning of the Mao period, the court opened and the seal was started.

"Long live my emperor" In the new year, the first time I went to court, the voices of the ministers were also particularly loud.

"The Lords are flat"

"Thank you, the Emperor"

"If you have a fortune, you will report early, but if you don't, you will leave the court." Since Mu Fengchun was promoted, Xiao Douzi has served as the eunuch in the Sidian Palace.

"Emperor, I will naturally have my own memorials." Gongshu naturally came out of the troupe. He surprised me because he had never been to court since he became an official. How did he come today? I wondered how he thought about it.

"Acceptance"

"Long live the opening. My steel crossbow research has made a breakthrough and is completely made by the emperor's intention. However, I have added a little bit of changes. I'll come and ask you to take a look." I can't stand Gongshu's way of speaking in combination with the vernacular language.

"Since that's the case, Xiaodouzi, quickly present it to me."

"Yes, the emperor"

"My dear Gongshu, if you are not used to speaking official words in the future, then you can continue to speak vernacular. It doesn't matter, I promise you." I looked at Gongshu with a smile and said, Gongshu naturally looked very happy, with a pair of rat eyes on his fat and round face, and a big beard on his face, and I really want to laugh when I saw him.

"Yes! That's great, thank you, Your Majesty, you'll know me, hehehe." Hehehe, this public prosecution is naturally so cute that it's wise and foolish.

After a while, a little eunuch came to the hall with a steel longbow and a pair of steel crossbows. I couldn't wait to pick up the steel crossbow and look at it. This steel crossbow has a handle like a bolt to open the string. The head and waist of the steel crossbow have a sight like a rifle. It can shoot at three points and one line, greatly improving the shooting accuracy of the steel crossbow. Then I picked up the steel longbow and looked carefully. After Gongshu Natural's further design, the steel bow could actually be folded. What I didn't expect most was that Gongshu Natural has added the principle of pulleys to it, making this steel crossbow more than a hundred meters longer than an ordinary wooden crossbow.

"Hahaha, Gongshu is really my blessing. Gongshu, after you go back, you will immediately start building this steel crossbow. The longbow is built with five thousand pieces, and the more steel crossbows, the more production of steel crossbows, and don't stop the production of continuous crossbows. Also, although the production of our current weapons and armor is already a flowing operation, it cannot be standardized yet. Gongshu, you can make a standard ruler after you go back. All the previous units of measurement will be given. In the future, the smallest unit of length is called millimeters, ten millimeters are one centimeters, ten centimeters are one decimeters, and ten meters are one meter, and one meter is three feet at the moment. Just do this according to this method and make a one meter standard ruler. Then, after you go back, you continue to study the steel crossbow and design a steel crossbow with an effective killing distance of five hundred meters or even more."
