Yun Shang looked at the position Luo Qingyan pointed at: "Is that... Kongming Lantern?"
"Why is there such a big Kongming lantern?" Yunshang's eyes were full of surprise: "The big basket next to the Kongming lantern, what is it for?"
Luo smiled softly: "This is a new gadget made by the attendants brought by Ling Ziyue to guide the people in the Ministry of Industry. It is the same as the Kongming Lantern, but it needs more firewood, and a special person needs to be assigned to add firewood to control the direction. Can sit on that basket..."
"You can ascend to heaven?" Yun Chang blinked.
Luo Qingyan was almost choked, and coughed lightly: "The matter of ascension to heaven still needs to be discussed in a long-term way. Let's wait a few decades before we talk about it. Let's go up and have a look and enjoy the moon."
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, her eyes were full of curiosity: "What about Chengye?"
Luo lightly touched his chin: "This thing is a new thing. Although I have sent people to try it several times before, it is still not safe. Chengye, I asked the Supreme Emperor and Queen Mother to take it."
"Not safe?" Yun Chang's eyes fixed on the big Kongming lantern: "How high can this thing fly?"
Luo Qingyan coughed lightly: "Twenty or thirty meters high."
"..." Twenty or thirty meters away, even if something happened and fell off the top, nothing would happen. What kind of unsafe is this
Luo Qingyan naturally saw the meaning of Yunshang's expression, and just coughed lightly: "Well, I did not bring him here on purpose, I just want to spend a Mid-Autumn Festival with you, Ever since I got Chengye, especially after I ascended the throne, I haven't spent a single holiday with you for a long time."
Yun Chang glanced at Luo Qingyan, and he was not guilty of saying this.
Obviously, the two of them spend more time alone.
Yun Shang didn't bother to bother with him, she just walked towards the big Kongming lantern, and circled it carefully for a while: "This thing is really interesting, does it fly fast?"
"Of course it's not fast, if it's fast..."
Luo Qingyan exchanged a look with Yunshang, and Yunshang squinted his eyes: "If it is fast, this thing is really a great threat."
"Not at all." Luo smiled lightly: "The biggest flaw of this thing is that it needs to be driven by fire, and the target is huge, no matter it is day or night, it is very obvious. It voids."
Too.
Yun Chang nodded, but heard Luo Qingyan said sadly: "It's not this thing that I'm afraid of."
Not this thing
"What I'm afraid of is that Youyue Kingdom and Yihai Kingdom have already made such objects in places we can't see, but our Xia Kingdom has not. If it weren't for Youyue Kingdom and Yihai Kingdom's visit this time, we wouldn't even have made such objects. I don’t know if they have such a thing. And what else does Youyue Kingdom have, and whether there are other countries that have better weapons than the fortification weapons we use... "
"We don't know anything."
Luo sighed lightly: "Sometimes, ignorance is the most frightening thing."
Luo Qingyan turned his head to look at Yunshang: "So, the empress is very forward-looking and has a long-term vision. Before she saw this thing, she already realized that she had to do some weaponry that she had never done before."
Yun Chang laughed: "Well, I feel the same way, let's go, let's watch the moon."
Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan got into the big bamboo basket together. There was a table in the basket with wine and vegetables on it. On the upper floor was the hidden guard who controlled the direction of Tian Huo.
Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan sat down, and Liu Wen'an, who was standing aside, gestured towards the hidden guard above: "Light a fire."
The fire was lit, and immediately, the big cloth basket in the shape of a Kongming lantern hanging on the side began to bulge...
After about a quarter of an hour, Yun Chang felt the basket sitting under her tremble slightly, and then flew off the ground.
"It's pretty stable."
"Yeah." Luo smiled lightly: "Today is a good weather, and there is no wind at night, so it will be much more stable. If there is wind, it will not be so. If the wind is strong, this thing will be blown up and down. You can't control the direction at all."
Yun Chang nodded, but a light flashed in her mind: "The Kongming lantern can fly when there is no wind, and the kite can fly when the oil is sealed. Since the Kongming lantern can be of such a size and carry people to the sky, Can a kite do the same?"
Luo Qingyan heard the words, raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at Yunshang: "The empress's idea is really a bit bold?"
"I like it, though."
Luo smiled softly: "The Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of Industry have specially allocated some people to set up a new department for the development of new fortification weapons. I plan to separate this place, but I haven't decided what to call it yet. , what do you think, empress empress?"
"When this department is established, the old people from the Military Aircraft Department and the Ministry of Industry will be used first, and new outstanding talents will be recruited before they will be put in."
"What can I think now." Yun Shang raised her eyes to look at the sky: "Today's moon is really round."
Luo smiled softly, couldn't help but raised his hand and flicked Yunshang's forehead: "Okay, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I specially bought this thing to enjoy the moon, then let's not mention anything else, just It's the moon."
Yun Chang smiled and glanced at Luo Qingyan, stood up, walked to the basket and looked down: "We should be more than ten meters away from the ground now, right?"
Luo nodded lightly: "Almost."
"More than ten meters, which is almost the height of the slightly higher pavilions in the palace." Yunshang looked into the distance, and they continued to rise. After a while, they could almost overlook the entire palace. His eyes fell on a palace in the distance.
"Then... it should be Weiyang Palace, right?"
Luo Qingyan looked at Yunshang with a smile: "Where is your own palace and what it looks like, don't you know?"
"I know, but I know." Yun Shang pondered for a moment: "Your Majesty said earlier that the speed of this thing is not very fast. From Weiyang Palace to here, it is about 700 meters away. Then, from here to Weiyang Palace, How long will it take?"
"Just try and you will find out."
Luo Qingyan smiled and opened his mouth to pass a message to the dark guard.
Immediately, they gradually drifted towards Weiyang Palace.
Luo Qingyan took a piece of mooncake from the table and handed it to Yunshang, and then poured a glass of wine and handed it to Yunshang: "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight is just right, and the empress does not admire the moon, but she keeps staring at it." What kind of plans are you planning in the direction of Weiyang Palace?"
Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and laughed: "The concubine is thinking, the left and right are going to burn this Weiyang Palace today, but it's better to pretend that something happened to this thing and fell down..."
