After visiting the kitchen, Ye Han took the emperor and others to visit other places, including the rooms prepared for the emperor, empress, crown prince and crown princess.
During this period, the emperor and others went from being shocked at first to being numb in the end. They could no longer be amazed. In today's words, they were tired.
After watching it all, the emperor and other indigenous residents of Dai Viet felt like they had just experienced a magical world. They sat back on the sofa with a confused look on their faces.
The Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the others had heard Yue Chengyu or Ye Han mention it occasionally, and they had thought that world was magical and advanced. But hearing about it was far less real and shocking than seeing, touching, and experiencing it for themselves.
Imagine refrigerators that preserve food, dishwashers that wash dishes themselves, faucets that dispense water with a simple turn and can adjust the temperature. Lights that turn on at the flick of a switch—far brighter and more convenient than candles. And then there are the intelligent sweeping and mopping robots... Until the emperor saw and experienced all these appliances, he could never have imagined the future would develop to this level.
The emperor and the crown prince, who had heard of it in bits and pieces, looked incredulous, let alone the empress and the crown princess, who knew even less than the emperor and the crown prince.
"Isn't this really a divine artifact from the immortal realm?" the Crown Princess asked, bewildered. These things completely shocked her worldview. It was even more shocking than the last time she heard about the wealth there. After all, that time it was just a description, but this time she could actually feel the real thing.
"Of course not, these are all made by humans."
"It's hard to imagine that this is really made by humans." The queen also sighed.
"Yes, even if you tell me now that people in the future can go to heaven, I still think nothing is impossible." The prince sighed.
When Ye Han heard the prince's words, he glanced at him and said slowly, "Indeed, it is possible."
"What can you say?" The prince was stunned for a moment. Only after he asked did he realize, "Could it be that you are talking about... is..."
The prince widened his eyes in disbelief, and the words on the tip of his tongue were not fully uttered. The others also looked at Ye Han in disbelief.
Ye Han felt a little uneasy when he was looked at. He nodded weakly and asked, "Haven't I talked about this before?"
Everyone shook their heads in surprise.
"Do you mean that you can already go to the sky?" As expected of an emperor who had experienced many storms, he was the first to come to his senses among the stunned people, but his voice was trembling when he asked the question.
"Father, some of this may not be suitable for so many people to hear. Please send the servants away first."
The emperor agreed without hesitation, "You all go down."
After Ye Han watched everyone go down, he replied, "Yes, and we have already been to the moon."
Ye Han's words were like a bombshell dropping on the crowd. Those who had not yet fully recovered from their shock were stunned by this sentence.
"Have you ever been to the moon?"
"Are there gods on the moon?"
"What does the moon look like? Are there gods living there?"
Everyone asked all their questions at once.
"Yes, I've been there. There are no gods on the moon, and there are no gods in the sky either." Ye Han answered every question. "As for what the moon looks like, I'll find a video for you."
Ye Han pulled out his phone and turned on the TV. Amidst the bewildered glances of the crowd, he searched for "the moon" on a video website and came across a documentary called "Fly to the Moon." He read the synopsis and the titles of each episode and decided it was a good fit, one that should answer everyone's questions at once.
So they clicked on the first episode and started projecting the screen. The emperor and others saw that as Ye Han operated, the TV on the wall changed, and finally a gray picture with a bumpy surface appeared at the beginning.
Ye Han paused the video and said, "I found a documentary about the moon that should answer your questions. This is the surface of the moon."
"Is this the surface of the moon? Why does it feel so... um... desolate?"
"My Royal Brother is right. It's desolate. Isn't it different from the moon I imagined?"
The prince nodded. "It is indeed different."
"So I played it?"
The emperor nodded, and Ye Han saw the emperor nod, so he nodded to continue.
As the video played, everyone was immersed in it.
Each episode lasts about half an hour, and Ye Han later played it at 1.5 times the speed, so I finished watching it in less than an hour.
After watching it, everyone was silent. Finally, the queen was the first to speak and broke the silence. "I didn't expect the moon to be like this, and I didn't expect we actually live on a sphere."
"Yes, the long-held theory that the earth is round is actually wrong. The place we live in is actually round. However, the earth we live on is really beautiful." The Crown Princess also said.
"Don't tell anyone about what happened today." The emperor warned that some things were not suitable to be said all at once.
For the emperor, today's events could be said to have reshaped his worldview. However, the emperor was still very perceptive and realized that these words could not be spread outside, at least not now.
All the emperors in history claimed to be "receiving the Mandate of Heaven", although the emperors knew very well that these words were only used to consolidate their rule.
However, today he clearly knew that there were no gods in heaven, and the shock he received was still quite great. When the emperor came to his senses, he immediately realized how detrimental it would be to his rule if this news were spread on a large scale.
Thinking about Ye Han's earlier behavior of asking everyone else to leave, he secretly admired him, "What a keen political sense." But this could only be said in his heart.
After hearing the emperor's instructions, everyone pondered over it and quickly understood the key point. They all nodded.
In fact, Ye Han had indeed considered this factor when he mentioned this before the show began, not because he was particularly concerned about maintaining the imperial system. It was just that, if the news were to be widely disseminated, while the people were currently living a decent life and there would definitely be no unrest, at least not at this stage, there was a fear that people with ulterior motives would stir up trouble if it got out, and the ordinary people would suffer.
It wasn't that Ye Han cared deeply about the country and the people. He simply didn't want social unrest to be caused by him. He simply wanted to live a simple life and, to the best of his ability, make life better for the people here. That was all.
Ye Han felt that he did not want to bear the sin of causing chaos in the world.
