Yun Zheng was very dedicated when raising Yun Yue. Therefore, after the conditions were met, he paid great attention to the tableware, toys and clothes used by Yun Yue, especially the cup Yun Yue drank from.
The red mud in Sichuan contains a lot of lead, and the red soil is not suitable for making porcelain, so Sichuan has never been famous for its porcelain.
Yun Zheng knew the secrets of the red soil in Sichuan. He didn't want Yun Yue to use lead-containing utensils to eat and drink water since he was a child. So the lead content in them was very small and he was not willing to take risks.
For children, lead should never be touched. It mainly damages the human brain and nerves.
The ancient Romans paid a price with blood.
In 30 BC, the Roman Republic collapsed, and Roman history entered the era of slavery and empire. At that time, the Roman Empire had become the unique overlord in the Mediterranean region.
Years of foreign expansion and aggression, successive military victories, and the expansion of the empire's territory led to the continuous prosperity and development of the slave economy. However, after more than three hundred years of its heyday, the Roman Empire suddenly began to decline. In 476 AD, the Western Roman Empire finally
perished.
Historians have given various explanations for the sudden decline of the extremely powerful Roman Empire, but archaeologists have discovered an extremely important reason that has been ignored by historians, and that is lead pollution.
It turns out that the Roman Empire had mastered advanced metal smelting technology in its early days. The glucose syrup and wine used by the ancient Romans were cooked in lead pots.
They added lead powder to reduce the phenolic taste, so that the lead content of the wine reached a very high level. Such wine may cause poisoning after drinking a small spoonful.
Those noble ladies who drank heavily often suffered from miscarriages, malformed fetuses or stillbirths, and infertility. This fatal lead poisoning seriously harmed the Romans from generation to generation.
The Roman aristocrats' lifespan was shortened by their love for wine, with an average life span of twenty-five years, and they also lost their fertility. Half of the Roman aristocrats were infertile, and even if they gave birth, their intelligence and physical strength were very low.
On the eve of the fall of the Roman Empire, the scourge of lead pollution had reached its peak... Since the process of lead poisoning occurred very slowly, people never thought that the cause of the disaster was lead utensils. They only knew that their bodies were getting weaker and their intelligence was weakening.
It is also getting lower and lower.
Therefore, the fall of the Roman Empire became a matter of course.
This kind of profound knowledge is naturally unique to Yunzheng. Although people in the Song Dynasty don't like lead very much, except for some alchemists who often use lead to make elixirs, his remaining value is mainly
Used to defend the city and seal some things.
Of course, the most important function is to be used for copper smelting. After mixing lead and zinc, the copper becomes bronze with higher hardness and stable shape.
However, no one knows that lead is actually a murderous medicine that is necessary for home travel.
When Cui Da was making a batch of dishes for the Yun family, Yun Zheng accidentally explained this point of view to him. He forgot about it after saying it. Such knowledge was not uncommon to him at all.
However, Cui Da remembered it, and after remembering it, he never forgot it again...
For more than ten years, Cui Dajiang gradually perfected the new concept of lead poisoning, and came up with a very precise dosage. He even turned this assassination method into a systematic knowledge.
Based on the Song people's understanding of lead, even if you boil water with lead for them to drink, they will happily accept it. If you do it more elegantly, you will even win praise from some literati who like elixirs.
In other words, Cui Da persuades you to drink poisonous wine in front of you, and people who don't know it will drink it happily. Cui Da believes that this is the highest state of killing, at least he can crush them in terms of cognition and wisdom.
, so that they will not trouble you even if they go to hell.
Cui Da smashed the three casseroles in front of him. There were still fragments of a casserole on the ground. This was the casserole that the prince had broken. When all the fragments were thrown into the roller, Cui Da stepped on the roller with his feet, happily
Crush these casserole pieces into a pile of powder.
As if grabbing it, I stretched my hand out of the window. As soon as I let go, the powder was taken away by the evening breeze...
After finishing these things, Cui Da washed his hands, and then made himself a pot of new tea. This is new tea from Taihu Lake. After the water boils, the fragrance of the tea overflows...
The air of death has filled Zhao Zhen's cheeks, and a large area of blue-gray color has occupied half of his cheeks. Zou Tong needs to listen carefully to notice his breath, which is as thin as a gossamer.
The sound of a pindrop can be heard quietly in the main hall...
His eyes, which were somewhat lively at first, are now like a pool of stagnant water.
"Your Majesty, would you like some honey?"
Zhao Zhen blinked his eyes several times, and Zou Tong burst into tears and prayed: "Your Majesty's journey is still far away, so you must not say such unlucky words."
Zhao Zhen's eyes turned to the desk next to him, and Zou Tong quickly picked up a secret letter and said with a forced smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the formation that Yelu Yixin set up in front of Tongtou Pass, Marquis Yun's letter said it is not worth showing!
He also said that no matter how exquisite the formation is, it is a big joke in front of artillery.
Wen Yanbo also roughly laid out an eight-door golden lock formation on the grassland in the shape of Yelu Yixin. He wanted to test Yun Hou's understanding of the military formation. As a result, the artillery commanded by the general was suddenly fired.
In the blink of an eye, they were razed to the ground, and Wen Yanbo himself was captured by Marquis Yun's scouts.
You don’t know that Wen Yanbo made a bet with Marquis Yun before setting up the formation. As long as Marquis Yun can easily break the formation, he will serve as Marquis Yun’s groom for a month. If Marquis Yun cannot break the formation within one day, Marquis Yun will
Worked as a cook for Wen Yanbo for a month.
Obviously, Marquis Yun won, and Wen Yanbo really lowered his profile to become a groom.
What’s more, a man’s words are hard to follow!”
After hearing the good news, the gray color on Zhao Zhen's face seemed to fade a little. Zou Tong took the opportunity to feed the emperor some honey water. This time it was good. The emperor did not spit it out. Maybe he had no strength to spit it out. Even so,
Zou Tong immediately ordered the secretary to write down the emperor's daily notes on taking a cup of honey water.
Yinshi, Pingdan, also known as dawn, morning, Ridan, etc., are the transition between night and day.
Bells and drums rang loudly in the Forbidden City, and then the dark palace became brightly lit. Countless eunuchs and maids were walking in the palace. The palace doors were wide open, and the envoys carrying white flags beat their mounts desperately and dispersed around Tokyo City.
Pang Ji Lao was in tears, sitting in front of the Daqing Palace with a long sword in his hand, his official robes were neat, and he was filled with a strong evil spirit. Standing behind him was Zhao Yannian and hundreds of new soldiers of the Song Dynasty, everyone was fully armed.
, is he holding a long sword in his hand, and is carrying a crossbow, clearly in a state of war.
"Is the prince back?" Pang Ji asked Zhao Yannian, wiping away his tears.
"We already know it. We are rushing back from the Yun family. The Yun family will be led by the Ge family, and the new army led by Zhao Ting is outside and is rushing over."
"How long can your Majesty continue to support this?"
"The imperial doctor said that the longevity of old ginseng depends on God!"
"My military order is to put the entire city of Bianliang City in Tokyo under martial law. The ban can only be lifted after the sun rises in the east. During this period, anyone who secretly colludes, informs, or plots evil will be executed!"
"Here!"
Zhao Xu cried loudly, hugging the horse's neck and running wildly. Ge Qiuyan was wearing armor and holding a spear in his hand, closely guarding him on the left and right. Zhao Ting tried to get close to Zhao Xu several times, but Ge Qiuyan forced him back with his spear.
Zhao Xu's safety determines the safety of the Yun family, young and old. At this time, she doesn't believe anyone. Unless Zhao Xu is safely sent back to the palace and handed over to Pang Ji, she will breathe a sigh of relief. This is what Lu Qingqing said before coming.
Strict order.
The sound of the dragon, bell, phoenix and drum has not stopped at all, and it seems that it will not stop until it rings a hundred and eight times.
The streets are full of soldiers, with one sentry at ten steps and one post at five steps. The military sheds outside the palace and the horse-faced parapets are also covered with sergeants. Even the newly minted artillery has its gun jackets opened.
The black hole pointed outside the city.
Countless officials were either driving the bullock carts very fast, or simply riding on their horses and galloping towards the imperial city. The people were puzzled and hid in the windows and secretly looked outside. Some scoundrels who wanted to find out some information had just left their houses.
He was pushed to the ground by the soldiers and beheaded on the spot without asking any questions.
There is a real curfew in the city of Tokyo.
Han Qi didn't understand why the dragon bell, phoenix and drum had been ringing for more than ninety times, why the soul-inducing bell in Xiangguo Temple didn't ring? Since the emperor had already conquered Bintian, why didn't he light a beacon to notify the frontiers, why didn't he send envoys to all directions?
To appease the subjects?
Could it be said that the emperor is still alive?
Ge Qiuyan carried the token of the Yun family on the tip of his spear, which was also a token of the Yun family's access to the palace. Along the way, he arrogantly pushed aside officials who were not very good at riding horses, and the carriages blocking the way were also fiercely attacked.
The generals of the Yunfu family and the new army under Zhao Ting were pushed aside, leaving a middle road for Zhao Xu to run.
The distance from the Yun family to the palace was not far, and they had already arrived at Xuanwumen in the time it took to make a cup of tea. Zhao Xu had no time to dismount, whipped his mount severely, and rushed straight into the Xuanwumen that had just opened the door. Ge Qiuyan Zhao
He followed closely behind, and no one paid any attention to etiquette at this time.
The old emperor was in danger, so the prince should appear in the palace as soon as possible and live in the Yun family, which was even closer to the palace than living in the East Palace.
The three fast horses arrived at the Daqing Palace in an instant. Zhao Ting jumped off the galloping horse, rolled on the ground and then tightly held the reins of Zhao Xu's horse. Zhao Xu jumped off the horse and staggered.
After taking two steps to stand firm, he said urgently: "Taifu, is my father the emperor okay?"
Pang Ji, who was coming up, supported Zhao Xu and whispered: "At three o'clock in the morning, Your Majesty woke up. His face was as rosy as before. After eating a bowl of rice porridge, he suddenly said that his time had come and ordered Zou Tong to summon the prince.
, an important minister, wants to establish a legacy.
The old minister was nearby and took over the imperial city. At the same time, he ordered the nine cities to be under martial law. No one was allowed to walk in the city without orders.
Your Highness, please hurry up and enter the Daqing Palace, His Majesty’s dragon couch has been placed here."
Without saying anything, Zhao Xu stepped into the Daqing Hall without having time to straighten his loose armor.
Ge Qiuyan cupped his hands and said: "Teacher, I testify that the Yun family has safely sent His Royal Highness to the Daqing Palace. I will go home right away and prepare to pray for His Majesty." (To be continued)
