Encountering Rain at West Lake

During summer, the azure sky is adorned with fluffy white clouds. Jiangning enjoys a pleasant climate, and both inside and outside the city, a leisurely atmosphere prevails. In the bright summer sunshine, roads and courtyards are dappled with the shadows of trees. Birds flit among the painted boats on the riverbed, and the ancient city is filled with the comings and goings of pedestrians. In the teahouses and wine shops, the voices of storytellers and singers resonate, mingling with the fragrance of light tea and the chatter of friends, all blending together to form part of this seasonal tapestry.

It is afternoon, and the courtyard on one side of the city is filled with the aroma of brewing tea. The shadows of the paulownia trees cast a shifting pattern of light and shade on the black and white chess pieces on the board. It is in this courtyard that the boy's voice rings out.

"... Mencius said, 'To secure the attachment of the people, one does not need the boundaries of a country; to fortify the state, one does not need the perilousness of mountains and streams; to awe the world, one does not need the sharpness of weapons.' He who has the Way has much support; he who has lost the Way has little support. The words of the sage are indeed the ultimate truth, but since ancient times, those who have had temporary support have not necessarily been those who have gained the Way, and those who have lost the Way, those with little support, have often considered themselves to be those who have gained the Way. What then, is the Great Way...? Confucius said, 'A sycophant is the thief of virtue,' from which it can be seen..."

The boy is not tall, and his face still appears childish. He is probably about eleven or twelve years old, but he is dressed in a white long gown, and his head is adorned with a stylish lun towel, making him look like a miniature adult. In reality, at this age, children from ordinary families would not have seen much of the world, and would still be wearing the "double-horn knot," that is, a hairstyle with the hair divided on both sides of the head. Because it looks like horns, it is anciently called "totenknot." There is also the phrase "totenknot banquet, merry laughter" in the Book of Songs.

But there are always various distinctions in these matters. Children at this time usually have a coming-of-age ceremony between the ages of fifteen and twenty, to signify adulthood. However, if it is a farmer's family, it is common to marry and have children at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and many people have to shoulder the burden of the family before the age of fifteen. If it is a child in the city, after enlightenment, having learned more things, they often regard themselves as literati. At this time, the literary style is flourishing in society, and some children and teenagers who can write a few poems often dress in Confucian robes and lun towels, like little adults, which is also full of vigor. As long as the attire is simple, no one will say anything. For example, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy spouting literary words, pointing out the mountains and rivers, and going whoring together is not a surprising thing.

The boy speaking in the courtyard at this time is Zhou Junwu, one of Ning Yi's disciples. He used to be a lively child, but in the past year, he has appeared more mature. Of course, an eleven or twelve-year-old child has limited maturity, but mainly because he has some thoughts in his heart, and no longer spends his days playing as before, he feels that he has "grown up." His appearance is already delicate, and at this time, dressed as a young scholar, he also appears somewhat heroic.

At this time, he is standing there speaking, thinking and organizing his words as he speaks, naturally in order to answer the questions of the elders in the courtyard. In the shade of the trees, Qin Si Yuan and Kang Xian have just finished a game of chess, and after asking a few casual questions, he has made a discourse on the "Debate of the Great Way." Beside the courtyard, a girl is also sitting on a low stool watching this scene. The girl is not very old either, and her hair is still styled in double buns. Her pink and white summer dress sets off her slender waist and small feet wearing goose-yellow and ivory-white embroidered shoes. The girl is supporting her chin with her hands, looking at this scene with a slight smile. In her hand is a round fan, but because the weather is not too hot, she only occasionally fans the teapot heating water on the small stove beside her. This is naturally the young Princess Zhou Pei.

Ning Yi has been away from Jiangning for several days now. Although these siblings still have a nominal place at the Yu Shan Academy, they have basically withdrawn from their studies there. As in the past, their studies are mainly overseen by Kang Xian, with other teachers from the Prince's Mansion or the Consort's Mansion teaching them as well. Zhou Pei has not yet reached the age of fifteen, but after all, she is "older," and her study progress is only according to her liking, with no strict requirements. However, there are still considerable demands on the young Junwu.

Of course, although he is often bullied by his strong-willed sister, Zhou Junwu's brain is inherently clever, and his studies are not top-notch, but they are at least average, and not too bad.

The "Debate of the Great Way" is a rather versatile topic. This topic was not given by Qin Si Yuan and Kang Xian, but was pieced together by the boy based on a few words said by Kang Xian. After a lengthy explanation, the two old men smiled at each other.

"Flowery," one said.

"Grandiose and impractical," the other commented.

The evaluation is not good, but as a question to test the boy's independent thinking ability, it is considered to have passed. Little Junwu also knows the characters of the two grandfathers, and touches his ears and smiles. Actually, after Master went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, Grandpa Qin is also about to set off for the capital. Coming over today, he saw that some things have already been packed. Grandpa Consort has been coming to play chess these past few days, probably to say goodbye.

"After your master leaves, you will be studying with several teachers from the Prince's Mansion. I am afraid that the progress will be different from that in the Yu Shan Academy. Can you keep up with your studies, do you understand?" Qin Si Yuan said with a smile.

"I understand," Zhou Junwu saluted and smiled, "Actually, Teacher Zhang and the others have already tested the student's progress, and are lecturing based on the subsequent courses, and have also gone over the previous ones. However, even when they are lecturing on the subsequent courses, the student always feels that he already knows a lot more. When Master used to teach, he would always say a lot of irrelevant things, but now that I think about it, he often talked about the things that would be taught later when he was talking about the previous lessons, so although there are many things that I have not yet learned, when the teachers lecture, I feel very familiar with them, and they are easy to understand. It's just... hehe, a bit boring."

Hearing this, the two old men smiled at each other, and then put on a stern face. Kang Xian said, "Do not be complacent. Teacher Zhang and the others are also great Confucian scholars of today, with great knowledge and insight. Each person has a different teaching method. Although you feel that you understand some things, you may not be able to learn the true essence of Teacher Zhang's learning. What they say, although it sounds like you understand it, the more it is like this, the more you must think carefully."

Junwu respectfully nodded: "Yes, that is what Master said when he left. He said that every teacher has his own skills, and as a student, one should learn to think, and all good things should be learned. As for what is good, it must always be verified slowly in future practice. Ideas can be as active as possible, but one must not be arrogant."

"It is truly difficult to find someone like Li Heng to be a teacher..." Qin Si Yuan chuckled, Kang Xian shook his head in annoyance, Zhou Junwu looked slightly proud of his master, and the little princess, supporting her chin on the side, smiled, her eyes narrowed into a line, as if she was thinking about something. Qin Si Yuan then tested Junwu's mastery of the Four Books, and chatted with Kang Xian for a while. As he was making tea, preparing to start a new game of chess, he spoke of Ning Yi again.

"Before Li Heng left Jiangning, I told him about the matter of going to the capital, but Li Heng seems to still have some concerns in his heart. What he is thinking is always difficult to grasp. In the past, he only talked about doing things, not about saving the country and the people. In my opinion, it is also because he has some concerns about the Great Way in his heart, so he is cautious and careful."

Kang Xian nodded: "He is extremely resourceful in doing things. But in the past, it could also be seen that he always regarded the secular officialdom with some disdain. If he can figure it out and help you, the resistance you face in the capital will be less."

Qin Si Yuan shook his head slightly: "Li Heng has always been calm in his actions, but looking at his style, his goals are often radical and thorough. It is just that he himself has such ability, and he probably understands this in his heart. When he left, he once told me that if he really came out to do things, even he himself would not know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. As I have also been thinking recently, what will be the final result of allying with Jin to resist Liao? I do not know. If the Jin state grows stronger, who knows if it will become another Liao state? Sometimes, having good intentions may not lead to good deeds."

"At least there is an opportunity. If the Jin and Liao states fight each other, as long as we seize the opportunity and win a few battles, we can recover our lost territories. But if we still cannot win in such an opportunity, then it is not just your responsibility alone."

"If that is the case... the country should also be destroyed..." Qin Si Yuan frowned, thinking of this sentence. In fact, if an ordinary person said this, it would be somewhat rebellious, but here it is naturally harmless. Kang Xian also frowned. Qin Si Yuan lowered his voice, "Actually, I think Li Heng's concerns lie here."

"Hmm?"

"What he thinks in his heart is always as simple as his style of doing things. That day, when I heard him say this sentence, it seemed like a joke, but it may not be true. Perhaps in his view, our dynasty has become so weak that if there really comes a day when we cannot seize such an opportunity, then this kind of country... should be destroyed..."

"How can it be so..."

"The opportunity is already here. This time to Bianjing, I will naturally cooperate with Prime Minister Li to rectify military affairs, but whether it can be done well, I am afraid, is still fraught with difficulties. Ha, since ancient times, everything in the world, even small changes, are fraught with countless difficulties. Those who want to make great changes, eight or nine out of ten, have no place to return to. He said: 'Your old man's future is unclear, I won't follow you.' Hehe, although it is a joke, Li Heng probably thinks clearly about these things. He has this insight, and he has probably also thought about how to do it, how to seize this opportunity, and the difficulties involved. He may be thinking too hard, and has prejudices in his heart, so he is hesitant. In my opinion, this is the reason why he has been shirking."

"It is always necessary for someone to do it, no matter how difficult it is."

"The more intense things are, the more changes there are, the harder it is to know the future results. Li Heng is probably afraid that his style of doing things is too intense. He has never entered politics after all. Based on imagination alone, he is afraid that he will become too persistent in the future, so he has the idea of seclusion. I have been thinking about this these past few days, and this is the only reason."

"Ha, having never done it, he presumes to understand it. Is that not too arrogant?" Kang Xian smiled.

"If it were someone else, I would say the same. At the age of twenty, even those who think highly of themselves only expect to become a magistrate. But I cannot say this about Li Heng. Just looking at the few things he has done in Jiangning, his actions are sophisticated, and among the younger generation, he is the only one I have ever seen like this. He is naturally able to see what people are thinking, and can manipulate them to achieve his goals. If this person were in a chaotic world, he would surely be a hero. It is just that he has both recognition of his own abilities and restraint, which is what I truly admire. So this time, when I invited him to the capital, he may not have truly rejected it in his heart. But on the one hand, he has an awareness of the difficulties of the future, and on the other hand, he has an awareness of his own methods. Because he is afraid of doing bad things, he restrains himself. In my opinion, this is not timidity, but only makes me admire him even more."

The old man smiled again: "However, I am not worried about whether he will come out of seclusion or not. With this ability, he will come out sooner or later. Let him figure everything out for himself first."

The two men are talking at this time, without avoiding Zhou Junwu who is next to them. After all, he is different from ordinary students. If it were ordinary students, respecting the teacher and valuing the Way would be the most important thing, and the two would definitely not discuss his master in front of him. But Junwu is, after all, the young prince of the Kang Prince's Mansion. Although the Wu Dynasty manages the imperial family strictly, on the other hand, Zhou Junwu is still Kang Xian's disciple, and Kang Xian's wife, the Princess of Cheng, owns a large number of royal properties. Although Kang Xian and Zhou Xuan themselves have children and grandchildren, these properties will need the approval of the higher-ups to be passed down in the future, and Junwu will actually be cultivated as one of the managers. After all, Ning Yi is a person who is too difficult to grasp. If something really happens in the future, the two men's current evaluation will become a major reference in Junwu's heart.

Of course, it is also because this is a positive evaluation that the two are talking about it. When they are talking, Junwu is also frowning with a somewhat hesitant expression. After they finish speaking, he smiles. Qin Si Yuan looks at him with a smile: "Junwu just now discussed the debate of the Great Way. Some of it is Li Heng's view, right?"

Junwu hesitates slightly, then nods: "Master has also said it, but... above this paragraph, Master seemed to be hesitating as well."

"Hehe, your master is afraid of saying it too fiercely, and scaring you. This person, I am afraid, would say that what is useful after use is the Great Way, and what is said is useless. However, Junwu, following Li Heng, I feel that what you have learned the most is not the poems, words, sentences, the Four Books and Five Classics, but how to look at things and think about things. You feel that many things that Teacher Zhang and the others teach have become easy to understand. Of course, it is also because Li Heng has mentioned them, but the main thing is that you are better at thinking."

Junwu nods forcefully.

"But learning to think too early may not be a good thing." Qin Si Yuan says with a smile, "In fact, for those who study, recognizing characters and reading are all about broadening their knowledge and then learning how to think. As long as you truly learn how to think, learning other things will be like drawing inferences from one instance, achieving twice the result with half the effort. Your master's teaching has always been to get you to learn to think as early as possible, so he tells those stories and guides you to use your brains. This way you learn faster. But you are too young now, and your experience is not enough. If you think too much, you will actually be biased. In the end, you will probably become arrogant, feeling that Teacher Zhang cannot compare to Teacher Ning, and then feeling that what Teacher Zhang says is not reasonable enough, and may even start to feel that the articles of the ancient sages and worthies have errors... Once you have your own ideas, you will become arrogant and ignorant! Junwu, you must remember these words clearly."

Qin Si Yuan has always been kind and amiable to the younger generation. When Kang Xian said that Junwu's discourse was "grandiose and impractical," he only said "flowery." But at this time, his expression began to become serious, and in the end, it even became somewhat stern. Junwu quickly sat up straight with a solemn expression, listening to the teachings. After a moment, Qin Si Yuan's expression relaxed.

"So generally speaking, teachers teach disciples, initially just to get you to remember, and only when you are really older and can truly see some things will they let you think. This way your foundation will be much more solid. Of course, I am not saying that your master's teaching is wrong. Just looking at the things he has instructed you to do, it can be seen that he also attaches great importance to this. He has controlled it somewhat, but after all, you are just a child. Grandpa Qin is about to go to the capital, so I want to instruct you again. Thinking is a good thing, but as your master said, avoid arrogance. Even the words that others say that you do not agree with, even those that you feel are stale, you must remember them carefully. As long as you can remember them, in the future when you grow up and verify them one by one, you will also discover why others think that way, and you will discover the reasoning behind it. Doing that, you will definitely be able to discover the benefits."

The boy salutes with a solemn expression: "Junwu remembers it."

"That is good," Qin Si Yuan smiles, "However, what you and Li Heng learned in the beginning, although you also studied the Four Books and Five Classics, the main purpose was probably not for that, right? How is the study of investigation of things? Do you think it is useful? You should have some insights now, right?"

"Useful, useful." Junwu is always lively. He seemed eager while accepting the test and listening to the teachings, but as soon as he talks about the investigation of things, the little boy's face suddenly lights up. He nods, nods, and nods again. "Investigation of things is, investigation of things is..."

He seems to want to promote this concept to others, but for a moment, he finds it difficult to organize amazing words. Qin Si Yuan smiles: "Oh?"

"Uh, investigation of things is... Master once said a word, the physics of... Oh, the root of the investigation of things is bold speculation."

"Speculation?"

"Yes." Junwu nods, "No matter what you see, you can guess, guess why it is happening, and then make a formula or theory that can be used. But this theory must be universally applicable. As long as there is one thing that does not match, you have to overturn this guess and continue to guess..."

"Just guess?" Qin Si Yuan frowns, understanding these things.

"Yes, generally, it is still done by deduction, but Master said that you must have imagination. If there is something that you do not understand at all and want to understand, you must first guess. Uh, Master said that there are some basic principles, such as, you can draw a straight line between any two points; a straight line can be extended arbitrarily..."

Junwu begins to prattle on about the basics of the study of the investigation of things that he has learned. It can be seen that the little boy is almost in a missionary stance, and he intends to promote the "very reasonable" study of the investigation of things to Grandpa Qin. The old man is listening to those simple principles: "Are these things things that you need to guess?"

"This is the basic composition, Grandpa Qin. The study of the investigation of things cannot be taken for granted. Although the theory can be guessed, the verification process must be rigorous. Step by step, every step must be absolutely precise..." Junwu promotes the concept he learned from Ning Yi with force. "These things, step by step, can form very complex things. Grandpa Qin, all things in heaven and earth come from this way. By learning it, we can know how to weigh things. Why a lever can transmit force... force, well, we put a stone here as a fulcrum, and if we press down hard on this side, the other side will rise up. How high will it rise up? We can calculate it, and then put a gear there. How will the gear move? After the gear, there can be another gear, and then add a lever, like a waterwheel, a windmill, we can make very complex things..."

"Haven't waterwheels and windmills already been made?"

"But they can be more complex. Grandpa Qin, you don't know, Master designed a very simple thing for us. Starting from a waterwheel, adding levers, gears, and then we make a printing plate. When the plate rises up, there will be a brush that brushes the ink over, and then when the plate presses down, it can print a page of a book. When the plate rises up, there is another claw that pulls away the printed page and pulls another piece of paper over, and then bam, it prints again... bam, it prints again. Master said this is called an assembly line..."

After all, the little boy's eloquence is not very good, and he is saying it too complicatedly, gesticulating wildly: "Of course, we have to consider the toughness of the paper, the uniformity of the ink, and the wear and tear of the machine. But these can all be calculated. Even the paper, as long as we understand why paper can become paper, we can make better paper. Master said this is because of plant fibers or something, we don't quite understand it now. Oh, we can also calculate the quality of iron. Grandpa Qin, did you know that the reason why iron is hard and brittle is because there is something that can burn inside, which is carbon. The less carbon there is, the more ductile the iron is, meaning that it is not easy to break, nor is it easy to rust..."

At this time, Qin Si Yuan is already looking at Kang Xian. He did not ask too much about Ning Yi's investigation of things in the beginning, and he used to be somewhat unconvinced. But at this time, he is gradually hearing an outline. And Kang Xian must know the things that Junwu learned from Ning Yi. The two old men look at each other, and Qin Si Yuan says, "Bold speculation, but it must be done with the most serious deduction, every step must be fastened..."

Kang Xian nods: "Specifically, we cannot see too much now, but I have had people write down some of the things that Li Heng said to Junwu, and I have been thinking about them. Now there is a small booklet. I will have someone bring it to you tomorrow for you to take a look at. To be honest, just these two items of speculation and deduction are truly profound when you start doing them. But... there may also be some trouble in them. You can help me think about it."

Qin Si Yuan nods. Junwu next to them does not understand what "trouble" refers to. He thinks that there will definitely be trouble in completing the deduction. At this time, he is still speaking excitedly.

"Grandpa Qin, have you ever thought about why kites fly into the sky? Why do Kongming lanterns fly into the sky? Because when the wind blows, the kite is at an angle. Because this angle decomposes the force, turning it into one backward and one upward. As long as the wind keeps blowing, it will continue to generate upward force. As long as we can make a very large wing and keep going forward, reaching a certain speed, we can fly... Of course, Master said that this requires a more resilient material to cooperate. As long as we can understand the principle of bellows, we can make better bellows, raise the temperature of the furnace to a higher level, make better iron, and also produce cloth that is less likely to break. Anyway, no matter what, we have been calculating recently. As long as there is a large wind-receiving area and there is enough speed, we can fly..."

His eyes show some fanatic anticipation as he says this. The two old men are thinking about the content of his words for a moment, and they don't notice this expression. Then Junwu shakes his head: "Of course, this is a long time in the future, and the development of basic industries will also take a long time..." He repeats Ning Yi's words.

"Anyway, when Master left, he told us to think about a few things. The first thing is that we now know that all things have the effect of force in them, but... where does this force come from..." He jumps on the ground, "When we jump up, we immediately fall down. Why do we fall down? Why do apples fall down? Why does the earth pull us? Why don't we float upwards..."

"Did Li Heng also let you think about this?"

"Yes, this is just to think about, of course we have to think about it. I also find it strange now... The second question is, why when we are at the seaside, when we see a ship sailing away, does the mast always disappear last..." He shudders, "Grandpa, this is very scary. What we see is always straight. If the mast always disappears last, it means..."

Junwu swallows a mouthful of saliva, then takes out a piece of paper. His eyes are filled with a strange and terrifying light as he bends the paper into a small arch bridge and cuts it in the middle with his hand: "The high side is the land, and the low side is the sea. Grandpa, our world has a slope. It is like a circle, sliding towards the sea. If it slides to ninety degrees, Grandpa, what do you say it is...? I think there must be a big hole on the other side of the sea, maybe it is like a big funnel, but the sea water has not poured down into that big hole. This requires thinking about Master's previous question: why is there a force pulling us...? Grandpa, although I don't know the reason, it is because there is a force pulling us that we haven't fallen down... But why does the world look like this? Teacher must be thinking about these reasons, that's why he asked us..."

The world is sloping, and there is a big hole on the other side of the sea. Qin Si Yuan and Kang Xian think about it and find it hard to believe, but when they think about how the mast of a ship on the sea actually disappears last, it is really a bit scary...

Junwu shakes his head: "But Master said that we should just think about these two questions for fun. He probably afraid to scare us, but he doesn't know that we have already figured it out so quickly... However, Master's third question is the most important."

At this time, Qin Si Yuan is also somewhat interested: "What did Li Heng ask?"

Junwu stands up and walks to the small stove beside him where water is being boiled to make tea, and squats down to look at it for a while: "Master said that one of the most important ways to develop physics... uh, the investigation of things, is on this teapot..."

"Teapot?"

"Yes." The little boy nods and looks back at the two grandfathers, "Master forgot, he mentioned it to us casually before... Grandpa Qin, if we block the spout of the teapot, and we press on the lid and don't allow the teapot to vent, can we hold it down?"

"The steam will always have to come out, I'm afraid it can't be held down."

"The steam will push the lid open, and there is force here. If this teapot is bigger, the force will be even greater... Master taught us that as long as we use levers, gears, and this and that, we can always transmit this force out. As long as we can make this kind of thing, it's just like what Master said..."

The little boy jumps up and looks back and smiles: "Master once said that human power is sometimes exhausted, and animal power is also sometimes exhausted. No matter what kind of thoroughbred horse you have, the carriage can only run so fast at most, because even the most powerful horse is just a horse. But with levers and gears combined, machines are different. A waterwheel has much more strength than a horse, but a waterwheel can't move. The first goal of the study of the investigation of things is a portable power source!"

Words like "machine," "portable," and "power source" are basically Ning Yi's way of speaking. Ning Yi has been here for so long, and he has basically integrated into this era. But when he is in the mood to talk about many new things, he does not pay attention to the grammar of this era. Anyway, whether you can understand it or not, he does not force it. Junwu has been with him for so long, and he has remembered these sayings and regarded them as guidelines for learning the study of the investigation of things. Because he remembers these things, when Ning Yi says them, he soon understands them.

"One day, we can fly into the sky..."

The little boy looks at the teapot and mutters a sentence. After a moment, the girl sitting by the small stove raises her round fan and hits him on the forehead with a smack.

"Alright, you haven't learned arithmetic well yet, and you're always thinking about these things. Still dreaming of flying into the sky, do you not want to live! Master scolded you a few days ago, saying it was dangerous, and he won't allow you to think about it anymore!"

"Wooo." The little boy covers his forehead and looks at his sister resentfully, muttering, "This is my ideal..."

Whether the boy with a great ideal was awakened for a while is hard to say. As for the essence of this study of the investigation of things, Qin Si Yuan and Kang Xian feel that on the one hand, it is unheard of but quite reasonable, and on the other hand, there are also places that they find absurd, mainly because of Junwu's theory that the earth is shaped like a funnel. Not long after, Qin Si Yuan slowly says, "If you are on the grassland and you see people riding horses, then it is the same in every direction. Why is that? If we think like this, is this earth perhaps round?"

He thinks about it, then smiles, "Nonsense, nonsense, but this kind of thinking is quite interesting, hehe."

Kang Xian is also stunned for a long time, then smiles, "Interesting, interesting. If it is round, what does the other side of this earth look like? Wouldn't everyone fall down? Do they all live upside down?"

For a moment, Junwu is quite distressed. The two men laugh for a while, and the expressions on their faces become strange. Then they change the topic. They are all very intelligent people. Although they did not understand the Western forms of logical thinking before, people think about things in a similar way. They can also instantly adapt to this form of giving conditions and principles and making strict deductions. For a moment, they are a little afraid to think about this question.

"Just now, I heard Junwu keep saying 'we, we,' it seems that besides you and Little Pei, there are other people studying this study of the investigation of things?"

"You can say that," Junwu nods, very proudly, "Besides me and my sister, there are also two junior brothers in the school, and the youngest son of the Duke of Kaiping's family. I told him about it recently, and he also thinks it's very reasonable. He's going to make kites with me recently. Oh, that's right, Kang Luo also thinks that the investigation of things is very interesting... so we formed the Party of the Investigation of Things a few days ago, and there are now six people. I am the party leader!"

Zhou Pei's round fan hits her younger brother's head again with a smack, but she is smiling and does not speak. For a moment, the two old men also find it funny. Let's not mention his two junior brothers in the school for the time being. The youngest son of the Duke of Kaiping's family is only ten years old this year. He usually follows behind Junwu and was pulled in by him. Kang Luo is Kang Xian's youngest grandson, and he is currently eight years old. Junwu has pretty good popularity among a group of children, and he immediately pulled them in.

"It seems that this Party of the Investigation of Things will develop quickly," Qin Si Yuan nods.

"I'm afraid that Little Qi and Little Xin in my family can't escape either..." Kang Xian laughs, joking about the few children in his family. Among the few grandsons in his family, Kang Qi is seven years old, and Kang Xin is five years old. They are probably destined to be developed into the Party of the Investigation of Things...

Amidst the jokes of the two old men, little Junwu becomes slightly angry and decides not to give Kang Qi and Kang Xin the opportunity to join the Party of the Investigation of Things. Anyway, they are also very stupid. He is currently very strict with developing party members, because every time he develops someone to come in, he will carefully describe the future prospects, which is to fly into the sky.

There will definitely be such a day...

On a summer afternoon, about eight hundred years away from the real appearance of vehicles that can fly into the sky in another period of history, the young prince looks back at the teapot in this courtyard and draws a big pie in his heart filled with anticipation.

Some things, rooted silently and sprouted, will never be able to be waved away again...

At the same time, the person who casually dropped the seeds has now passed Zhenjiang by boat. They originally sailed east along the Yangtze River, stayed in Zhenjiang for a few days, and then set off south along the Jiangnan River. This stretch of water is busy with ships coming and going, but the current is not fast, so they are sailing slowly and leisurely. They traveled for a day, passed Danyang, and were about to enter the territory of Changzhou. (To be continued.) Please vote for recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
