Chapter 14, First Livestream Ends
Meanwhile, during the Hongwu era...
Zhu Yuanzhang invited several princes, including Liu Bowen, to have a detailed discussion, using the support of the Ming dynasty's imperial family.
"Biao'er, that policy of the Great Qing Dynasty is actually quite useful. We've thought about it carefully. Under the old system, our Great Ming Dynasty would have been truly impoverished! Humph! We used to be oppressed by landlords, but who would have thought that today our Great Ming Dynasty would become the landlords! Raising a bunch of pigs!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were sharp, and he looked very angry!
Zhu Biao: "Father, now that we know how to correct our mistakes, I'm sure the Ming Dynasty won't follow the path recorded in history! By the way, the lamp that Miss Lin sent is truly magical; it lit up with just a light touch. Our Ming Dynasty is the last Han Chinese dynasty. What good days can the Han people have under a foreign race!"
Zhu Di's fists clenched, eager to fight. "Father, elder brother, watch me destroy the Jurchens!"
Liu Bowen stroked his beard, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Fourth brother, we haven't even beaten you yet! How dare you usurp your elder brother's throne! And your good grandson of yours, he almost brought down the Ming Dynasty! You better stand up straight for us!" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he saw Zhu Di, that little brat, and immediately picked up a stick and started beating him.
Zhu Di quickly hid behind his elder brother, saying, "Father, please don't try to sow discord between me and my elder brother. My feelings for him are as clear as day!"
Zhu Yuanzhang would have been better off not listening to this, because as soon as he heard it, he flew into a rage, picked up a stick, and went forward to beat him!
Liu Bowen stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, the matters concerning the Mongol Yuan and Jurchen are more important now. The matter of the Fourth Prince can be put aside for the time being.”
Early Song Dynasty
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is causing trouble again," a eunuch came in to deliver the message. Zhao Kuangyin felt bitter. Everyone said that the emperor dotes on his eldest son and the people dote on their youngest son, but my mother favors that brat Zhao Guangyi!
But I am the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and I am responsible to the people of the world. After much deliberation, Zhao Kuangyin decided to go to his mother's place.
"Mother, if my second brother does a good job as emperor, I will release him." Zhao Kuangyin closed his eyes, feeling extremely heartbroken.
Empress Dowager Du breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, knowing that she had been pushed to the limit, and said nothing more.
Early Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin then discussed the Wu Zhou dynasty's usurpation of the Tang dynasty with Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and others.
Li Shimin rubbed his reddened eyes and said, "Who is this Wu Zetian? Order a search for her!"
Fang Xuanling comforted her, saying, "Your Majesty, perhaps we'll find out during Miss Lin's next live stream."
Cheng Zhijie, standing to the side, casually remarked, "Your Majesty, do you think I'll be able to get a spot in that chat room next time?"
Li Shimin and the others were speechless. What kind of time is this to still be thinking about this stuff!
Not long after, a loud noise suddenly came, and a wooden figure carrying a box ran towards people. Perhaps because it was newly manufactured, it almost hit people.
Upon opening it, they were surprised to find the telescope and world map that Li Shimin had just ordered.
Things from later generations are indeed fast!
……
We don't know how shocked our ancestors were, but Lin Ke on the other side was extremely excited!
"System, I really did talk to a historical figure! It really was that Yongle Judy!!"
999 System: ...Host, you've asked this hundreds of times already. You can stop now.
Lin Ke felt both excited and sad.
What's exciting is that we can change history, make up for regrets, and those people won't have to die!
What's sad is not being able to communicate with our ancestors face-to-face.
I've earned a million points today, all thanks to our ancestors!
This also indirectly shows how many people are watching!
999 System: Host, could you give me 500,000 points to upgrade? Upgrading might even allow me to travel through time!
Upon hearing this, Lin Ke's eyes lit up, and she sprang to her feet with a flourish, declaring domineeringly, "Take it! It's my system, I'll pamper it myself!"
At this time, Lin Ke, who had not yet entered society, had no idea what "drawing a pie in the sky" meant.
It has been three days since the last live stream.
Lin Ke held a small light screen in her hand, thinking of passing the time by showing something to the ancient people.
"Greetings, esteemed ancestors! Today, instead of drawing lots, I'll show you something to pass the time!"
"We started by looking at papermaking, beginning with Cai Lun's papermaking technique."
Qin Shi Huang period
During the court assembly, the First Emperor's gaze swept across the ministers below with a sharp look: "Ministers, take note! Pass down the order, and I will reward those who succeed!"
Minister: ...More overtime! ...
Eastern Han Dynasty
Cai Lun and a group of eunuchs were doing this, with a small light screen next to them, when they suddenly heard Lin Ke mention his name.
The screen first introduced Cai Lun's life, explaining how he summarized people's papermaking experience, innovated papermaking technology, and finally created Cai Hou paper.
Then the screen began to play a video of a man dressed as a eunuch observing the making of silk. He then buried his head in thought and accidentally bumped into a piece of tattered linen, which seemed to pique his interest. He then collected materials such as fishing nets, tree bark, and linen.
The scene shifts, showing him ordering the craftsmen to chop up the materials, soak them in a pool, then boil them in a large pot. After boiling, they are taken out and mashed into a sticky paste. Finally, he spreads the paste evenly on a bamboo mat to dry, resulting in a lightweight and easy-to-use sheet of dry paper.
