Just when everyone was stunned, they heard Du He say righteously and solemnly: "Father, my son is not asking for mercy for His Highness the King of Shu, but asking for merit for His Highness the King of Shu. At the same time, I also want to congratulate my father, I A great saint came out of the Tang Dynasty!"
Please take credit?
saint?
Li Er was confused and looked at Du He in confusion.
Du He explained: "Father, my sons and ministers can testify that His Highness the King of Shu did not deliberately set fire to the Wenzhao Palace, but was conducting a scientific experiment. Now that the King of Shu has succeeded in setting fire, isn't it a happy event for the Tang Dynasty?" ?”
Li Er was very happy: "Are you trying to say that the King of Shu used a bald mirror to make fire?"
"Ah? My father is very aware of everything. It seems that you know everything!"
"I know, I know shit!" Li Er was so angry that he couldn't help but swear, "Do you think I'm the kind of fool who doesn't understand anything? I've also seen the so-called bald mirror, but it's just a piece of glass with an ugly appearance. , trying to use this to make a fire is a fool's errand. Okay, Du He, I know you want to plead for the King of Shu, but this time the King of Shu has sinned so much that it's useless for anyone to plead... If you continue to persist in your obsession, I will inject you as well. Dali Temple Prison.”
After that, let the imperial army take Li Ke away.
Du He straightened up and shouted loudly: "Father, you are so confused!"
Li Er frowned: "You mean, I'm confused?"
He was vaguely unhappy.
Du He argued with reason: "Father, I heard from the common people that what I heard was false and what I saw was true. I think it makes some sense. But now that my father only concludes that the bald mirror is a piece of glass, it doesn't matter." Why do you believe it can make fire? Do you think your father doesn’t trust your prince so much? If he were the king of Shu, he would be so sad that he would commit suicide... Am I right, Your Highness?"
As he said that, he turned to look at Li Ke, hoping that Li Ke would cooperate with him in a play.
Unexpectedly, the fat little black man didn't understand what he meant at all, and said directly: "Teacher, I am indeed very sad, but why should I commit suicide? Suicide is so useless!"
Du He: "..."
This big fool.
Li Er resisted the urge to run away, pointed at Du He, and said: "In that case, I will give you a chance, Du He, show me how this broken glass can make fire. If you talk nonsense, I will not spare you." "
Du He bowed and said: "Father, I am willing to perform a miracle for my father."
With that said, Du He walked up to Li Ke and stretched out his palm.
Li Ke asked in confusion: "What?"
"Of course it's the bald mirror, you idiot... Your Highness!" Du He said speechlessly.
A good convex lens was accidentally called a bald lens, and Du He was helpless.
"oh!"
Li Ke broke away from the two tiger-backed Imperial Guards beside him, groped around on his body for a while, and then took out the bald mirror and handed it to Du He.
Du He took the bald mirror, turned around into the sun, and raised his fingers towards Zhao Yang who was not far away.
Zhao Yang ran forward in a hurry, "Prince-in-law, are you looking for me?"
Du He took off the hat on his head and said, "I'll lend you my hat!"
As he said that, he threw the hat on the ground and stepped on it with his feet.
Zhao Yang's heart was bleeding. This hat was not issued uniformly in the palace. It was made by him himself by a top tailor outside the palace. A hat, worth at least a hundred guan, was wasted like this. ah.
Du He held up the bald mirror, squatted on the ground, and adjusted the angle to focus the sunlight on one point.
Zhao Yang curiously leaned over to watch, but Du He pushed him impatiently: "Go away, don't block my young master's light."
Zhao Yang: "..."
Suddenly, Zhao Yang pointed to his hat in surprise: "Smoke, smoke...smoke..."
The people around him quickly opened their eyes and were stunned.
I saw a burst of smoke coming out of the extremely luxurious hat, and a hole was burned in the middle of the hat.
Then, a flame burst out.
The hat actually caught fire.
This was definitely not a trick, because everyone could see clearly that Du Ho had just done nothing, not even touching the hat, and the hat had burned on its own.
Du He's move is nothing short of magical, it's so miraculous!
Li Er asked in surprise: "Du He, how did you do it?"
Du He said with a smile: "Father, you can do it too, otherwise, why don't you give it a try?"
"Really? I can do it too?"
Li Er felt incredible.
Du He handed the bald mirror to Li Er and taught Li Er step by step how to adjust the height.
After a while, the hat burned again.
Li Er was like a child who got a toy, ecstatic: "It's true, hahaha, I can also make fire!"
Li Ke curled his lips.
Li Er got so playful that he burned Zhao Yang's hat. Not satisfied, he asked Zhao Yang to take off his robe and burned it completely before he stopped.
After a long while, Li Er stood up with satisfaction.
And he understood a truth. In fact, this is not making fire, but borrowing fire. The sun's rays heat up, and when the sun's rays are concentrated at one point through the bald mirror, the temperature will be very high, and it will naturally burn.
He glanced at the aggrieved Li Ke and said lightly: "Ke'er, I did blame you for this matter."
Li Ke's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly: "Father, now the facts have proved that you are wrong and I am right. Also, I have invented a new method of making fire. How should you reward me?
"
Li Er's face darkened: "Reward? Ke'er, did you really invent this bald mirror?"
Li Ke nodded and glanced at Du He with a guilty look: "Of course, if you don't believe me, ask the teacher."
Du He also hurriedly said: "For the record, Father, this bald mirror was indeed polished by His Highness hand by hand. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was His Highness's invention."
Li Er smiled and said: "It's time to give a good reward. With this bald mirror, in the future, when the army marches to desolate places, they can light fires as long as there is sun, and no longer have to worry about not having enough fire. It is indeed a great achievement...
…”
Li Ke felt happy and was waiting for Li Er's reward.
But Li Er continued to say: "However, it is Du He who is being rewarded. What does it have to do with you? Do you really think that I am a foolish and foolish king? Du He, you have done a good job in this matter, and I plan to reward you well.
If you have any requirements, just ask me and I will try my best to satisfy you."
Du He bowed and said: "Father, my son and I don't dare."
"You..." Li Er was in a good mood and said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "It's not that you don't dare, but you know how to make demands, and I can't satisfy them, right? In this case, I will take your credit for inventing the bald mirror,
I allow you to build the Prince Consort's Mansion in Hu County, and make great inventions in the future, and don't let me down."
What?
Du He was stunned, and then his eyes lit up, "Father, do you mean that the two princesses can live in the Prince Consort's Mansion openly and openly in the future?"
Li Er had a black line on his head, coughed and said: "There are some things, don't mess with etiquette!"
Du He chuckled: "I understand, I will never embarrass my father!"
