Naturally, no one pays attention to Ouyang Zhi.
No one cared about how Ouyang Zhi felt when he suddenly had more than twenty junior brothers.
These are not important.
Because everyone is attracted by this carriage.
A carriage came slowly.
The horse in front is obviously not a good horse.
It was just the carriage behind, with four wheels, but it easily crossed the threshold.
The man driving the car in the front looked very cautious because he was a little scared.
Liu Jin felt that her heartbeat was a little fast, and she forgot what she should eat to calm down her shock before entering Fengtian Hall.
He is scared!
But this was what the prince and his godfather asked him to do. No matter how scared he was, he had no choice.
Driving this carriage directly to Fengtian Palace, no matter how you looked at it, you were seeking death. He even suspected that the emperor would cut off his head without hesitation.
Liu Jin has experienced countless hardships and has seen a lot in the world.
die? Don¡¯t be afraid!
But he is afraid that if he loses his head, how will he eat in the future?
He cautiously pulled the trigger with quick hands and eyes, and stopped the carriage firmly. Then he got off the carriage, knelt down with a snap, and bowed to the ground.
Carriage
The civil and military officials looked at each other, a little confused.
It¡¯s just that this carriage is quite beautiful.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????: It is carefully crafted and the shape is different from today's horse-drawn carriages.
The carriage is very wide, and most importantly, because it is a four-wheeled carriage, it is very long. Many places are covered with gold foil, and there are five-clawed golden dragons on the left and right sides of the carriage, which is very dazzling.
Carriagefour wheels
Everyone felt a little incredible.
It should be noted that the comfort of a four-wheeled carriage is completely superior to that of a two-wheeled carriage.
But the problem is that since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there have been no four-wheeled carriages. According to legend, in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Hou Jing ordered people to make four-wheeled or even six-wheeled carriages, but soon this thing was eliminated. The reason is that this thing is really If it's not easy to turn, what's the use?
In later generations, many chariots unearthed, even the emperor's chariots, were all two-wheeled.
So much so that the comfort of two-wheeled carriages was too low and too bumpy, and eventually they were replaced by sedan chairs.
Fang Jifan remembered that in later generations, countless literati criticized the ancients for sitting in sedan chairs, mostly using words such as servility and oppression.
In fact, this really wronged the ancients.
With the current road conditions, coupled with the extremely poor comfort of two-wheeled carriages, using two-wheeled carriages to travel, and the dignitaries are not masochists, why would they sit in a sedan chair?
The fundamental technical difficulty in making a four-wheeled carriage lies in the steering problem of the vehicle. The four wheels just fix the direction of the vehicle so that it cannot turn freely. This carriage cannot always go in a straight line after it is built, right? ?
Therefore, gradually, horse-drawn carriages were mercilessly eliminated by the dignitaries. They did not like this thing. Even now, people even think that horse-drawn carriages can only carry heavy goods or travel for relatively wealthy people.
As for the nobles themselves, it is absolutely embarrassing to sit in this carriage.
But now, Fang Jifan actually asked someone to bring a carriage. On the carriage, there was actually a five-clawed golden dragon carved on it. What does this mean?
"Fang Jifan, what is this?"
Liu Jian was a little anxious.
Are the prince and Fang Jifan seeking death?
Although there are records of emperors of the Han Dynasty riding carriages in ancient times, since then, the emperors have almost always ridden in carriages. The so-called carriages are actually more luxuriously decorated sedans. Naturally, such a dignified person cannot ride in a carriage.
"Isn't it a joke that you send a carriage to His Majesty for his birthday?"
Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jian with a smile.
Fang Jifan also smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, this is a carriage specially made for Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I have been thinking that it is very hard for Your Majesty to travel. Let's talk about the Daming Palace. Your Majesty goes in and out of various palaces. It is also very hard work, so I and His Highness the Crown Prince racked their brains to make this dragon chariot and present it to His Majesty."
The ministers in the second class almost exploded.
We high-ranking people all ride in sedan chairs.
what do you mean?
Liu Jian smiled bitterly, forget it, I don¡¯t care.
Someone came out and said, "Captain Fang, what do you mean? Your Majesty already has a walking carriage, so why does he need a carriage?"
Fang JifanFan and Zhu Houzhao looked overjoyed.
Extremely happy.
It is in sharp contrast to the entire Fengtian Hall, which is filled with resentment and a terrifying atmosphere.
Zhu Houzhao said with a heartless smile: "Father, this car was specially built for my father. Please condescend to give it a try."
"Yes, yes, your majesty, this is your wish. Your majesty must give it a try. I bet that this car is ten times more comfortable than that Buyu."
""
Emperor Hongzhi wants to shoot these two guys to death. Today is my birthday, so you let me take a ride around.
Is that true?
But¡¡
¡°If you don¡¯t try¡my heart is bleeding.
I have been frugal all my life. I think back then, just because I looked at the expenditure of the internal funds, I felt that the expenses in the palace were too high. I stayed awake for two days, calculating the accounts one by one, and finally cut off the expenses. Seven thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight, saving sixty or seventy thousand taels of internal funds every year, just like this Emperor Hongzhi was very proud, feeling that he had saved money.
But now
Emperor Hongzhi had a straight face.
One hundred thousand taels of silver just thrown into the water.
No you have to sit down for a while, even if you die from the bumps, you have to give it a try.
This is not a matter of etiquette. Emperor Hongzhi doesn¡¯t care what Zhou etiquette is. This is a matter of money.
The ministers were a little worried, and one couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, this horse is not a human being, and it will inevitably lose control. I am only afraid"
Fang Jifan said cheerfully: "Don't worry, these are Mongolian horses. They are small in size and a little bruised when they are born. They are hardworking and have no temper. Like me, they are honest and responsible."
"" The corners of many ministers' mouths became obviously cramped again.
