Chapter 387: The transfer of fire gun manufacturing technology, only Wei is qualified to negotiate with Dongchen
There is still one question he hasn't figured out, so he might as well ask the knowledgeable Dr. Du. Maybe she can answer his question.
"Doctor Du! If a child is not your own, why would he or she become somewhat like you as you raise him or her? What is the reason for this?"
What? The Prince of Qi is not the Emperor's biological son?
Upon hearing this explosive news, Du Wanwan almost fainted from laughing. If this was the case, it would be difficult for the King of Qi to save his life.
Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Hahahaha! She put her hands on her hips and laughed three times.
Du Wanwan glanced at the emperor with an ambiguous expression, thought for a moment, and answered slowly based on the knowledge she had acquired in her previous life.
"There are several reasons for this. If a father pays close attention to his child's growth and gives him too much fatherly love, the child may become more and more like his father in terms of behavior, habits, speech and even appearance.
As children grow up, they imitate the people around them, including their parents, husbands, siblings, etc.
If the father's behavior and words are often imitated by the child, the child may be exactly like the father in emotions, temperament, and appearance.
The longer a child lives with a family, the more similar experiences they have, such as playing, companionship, and playing. These experiences may leave a mark on the child's personality, behavior, and speech, making them look more and more like their family members.
In summary, there are many reasons why children resemble their parents, some of which may be the result of psychological and environmental factors, while others may be the result of biological factors.”
The emperor was confused by what he heard, but at least he understood one thing, that is, President Qi was somewhat like him because he had been with him for too long.
This is true. At that time, the child was young and his mother had passed away, so he basically took care of him by himself. No one could persuade him, he insisted on doing it his own way.
It was not until the King of Qi was five years old and needed enlightenment that he left him to study at the Imperial Academy. After that, whenever he had time, he would bring him back and let him stay with him.
He had spoiled Wei Hanyi for more than 20 years, but he didn't expect to spoil a bastard. He really wanted to tear Wei Hanyi into pieces and scatter his bones and ashes. Why did he plot against him like this?
Am I not good enough to her?
"Another question is, why do grandchildren look like grandfathers?"
This was also one of the reasons why the emperor was confused. His legitimate son did not look like him at all. He was completely cut from the same mold as the previous emperor. He did not look like his son at all, but more like his brother.
Liu Xiaowu's heart was in his throat. Doctor Du, you have to be careful and don't say anything wrong, otherwise the emperor will be angry to death.
Du Wanwan: “????”
Why does the emperor have so many questions? Is he treating her like an encyclopedia? Who doesn't look like the late emperor? Could it be the prince?
Although she was curious about the gossip in her heart, she explained the emperor's doubts in a serious manner.
"There's nothing strange about this. This is called intergenerational inheritance. Not only will a person's appearance be inherited, but also their personality, skin color, temperament, and even certain diseases."
"What? Even diseases can be inherited?" The emperor was shocked. "How can the human body be so amazing?"
Liu Xiaowu also opened his mouth in surprise, thinking that what Doctor Du said was really scary. How could even the disease be inherited? Was he kidding?
The next second, Du Wanwan began to answer him: "For example, congenital heart disease, asthma, hypersensitivity, etc., are all hereditary.
If someone in a family has this disease, his immediate family members and collateral relatives will also be affected.”
The emperor was puzzled. He didn't understand what Du Wanwan said, but was too embarrassed to ask. He glanced at the eunuch Liu Xiaowu beside him.
He immediately understood and asked, "What are direct relatives? What are collateral relatives?"
Du Wanwan smiled and explained: "Direct relatives are parents and children, and collateral relatives are uncles, nephews, aunts, cousins, and cousins."
"Now that Doctor Du has said that, I understand." The emperor nodded slightly and lowered his head in thought. "I heard that the King of Qi wants to buy Dongchen's muskets from Doctor Du? Doctor Du agreed?"
"Yes! I agree!" Du Wanwan nodded frankly, "It's a pity that he has no money. It's such a big warehouse, and it's made very solemn. There are a lot of secret guards guarding it. When we opened the door of the warehouse, there was not even a copper coin inside."
"What if he has silver?" the emperor asked again.
Du Wanwan shook her head and said to him seriously, "He has no money."
If he met her, would he still leave money for her to show off? He was so beautiful that he didn't even look at who her daughter Yaya was. She was an expert at collecting things.
They harvest whatever they come across, and wherever they go, no grass grows, just like a swarm of locusts passing through a land.
After a slight pause, the emperor carefully thought about what Du Wanwan had just said. He felt that the amount of information was a bit too much and he could hardly believe it.
Why was Doctor Du so sure that there was no silver in the King of Qi's treasury? Did she send someone to take away the silver?
impossible.
There must be a lot of silver in the King of Qi's treasury. I have rewarded him with many good things over the years, and most of them have been stored in the treasury.
Who is so powerful that he could empty out his warehouse?
I really want to thank him.
Du Wanwan: “!!!!”
No, I'm just getting rid of harm for the people. It's just a small favor. No need to thank me.
"I heard that King Dongchen has issued an order that firearms will not be sold to other countries to avoid loss of life." The emperor asked Du Wanwan with a hint of meaning, "Dongchen will only sell weapons if the Princess Protector of the Nation asks for it. Is this true?"
Du Wanwan smiled calmly: "It's true, my uncle is afraid that I will be bullied in Wei. His original intention was to transfer the manufacturing technology of fire guns, and only Wei is qualified to negotiate with Dongchen."
"What?" The emperor was startled, then delighted. "Doctor Du! Are you serious? We are not discussing the sale of weapons? We are discussing the manufacturing technology of firearms? And only Wei is allowed to negotiate?"
"Yes, that's what uncle said." Du Wanwan smiled slightly, "Uncle meant that I would not be held hostage in Wei anymore, and would have the confidence to live openly and safely."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, disbelief in his eyes: "Is it really like this? Princess Protector of the Nation! This title is not given randomly. Doctor Du must have made a great contribution to Dongchen. If the Great Wei wants to discuss this matter with the Dongchen Kingdom, who should be sent?"
Du Wanwan didn't even think about it and immediately answered: "Ye Tingxiao!"
If she sent someone else, her uncle would never agree. She couldn't leave the capital, so she had to send him.
"Ye Tingxiao! Ye family? Pingyang Marquis Mansion?"
The emperor felt as if he had been hit in the heart, and instantly understood everything.
How could he forget? The Ye family father and son could make a repeating crossbow, so they could also develop a fire gun.
The King of Qi must have known something, so he went to Liangjun City. Unfortunately, the father and son of the Ye family did a good job of keeping the secret, and no clues were revealed.
When he failed to get what he wanted, he came up with a vicious plan upon returning to the capital to completely suppress the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
After the King of Dongchen came to Liangjun City, he went back and invented the musket.
Why is this? Who gave him the idea?
