On the second day, Emperor Zhu really summoned Hu Fuli and Xiaozhong to enter the palace. The actions of a little palace lady last night were just an impotence in the history of romance for Emperor Zhu, who has already experienced many battles, and there is nothing to say! Emperor Zhu will not change anything because of what happened last night, because the death of a palace lady has no effect on Emperor Zhu. Emperor Zhu asked Hu Fuli: "Hu Aiqing, I, I’m very curious why you can be so short. Complete the construction project within time? Could it be that you have God's help?"

Hu Fuli hurried to his knees. Hu Fuli knew that it was not God’s help, but people’s help. The reason why the project can be completed in a short time is all the credit of Laughter in the Wind. If he really has any credit, it is that he listened to Laugh in the Wind’s opinion. Hu Fuli replied: "The minister is ignorant, where he can get help from heaven. It is all dependent on the emperor's long grace and the artisans are united. Among the many slaves, he discovered the outstanding talent of laughing in the wind, and made use of his invention. This tool saves time and effort, so the project can be completed ahead of time!"

The emperor Zhu was very pleasing to the ear, thinking that this Hu Fuli didn't seem to be what Liu Jin said, he should be very modest, and he couldn't tell that he was an arrogant lord. Emperor Zhu laughed and said: "Feng Aiqing , What kind of tool has been invented that can be so effective?"

Laughing in the wind This is not the first time I saw Emperor Zhu. It’s just that the atmosphere was tense when I met last time, but I don’t have the mood to take a closer look at this Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Now I take a closer look and it’s just an ordinary person. I can only talk about people. Leaning on clothes, horses and saddles, the Emperor Zhu looked like a dragon robe. He smiled on his knees in the wind and replied: "I don’t know how to use the principle of leverage and invented some labor-saving tools!"

Emperor Zhu naturally didn’t know what the principle of leverage is, and I was confused when I heard it. This principle of leverage was applied earlier in China, but people have never summarized and named it, so Emperor Zhu, the emperor who only knows the four books, the five classics, and the eight-part essay, is there Knowing what science is and what is technology, Emperor Zhu asked again: "What Feng Aiqing said, I have never heard of it!"

Feng Zhongxiao immediately understood that only oneself and loyalty can understand the principle of leverage. In the Ming Dynasty, who else would know what leverage is, so Feng Zhongxiao hurriedly explained: "The emperor, the minister heard that people used wells to lift water. Son, the name of this thing is a wheel, it can save effort, and children can also lift a bucket, so based on this principle, even more than a dozen wheelers lift heavy objects!"

Emperor Zhu understood now, and thought in his heart that this person is indeed not an ordinary person, knowing such a skill and talent. Emperor Zhu smiled happily: "Feng Aiqing is smart, I, I want to reward you and Hu Aiqing well!"

Emperor Zhu immediately made an order, reciting that Hu Fuli and Feng Zhongxiao had merited in building the Great Wall, and rewarded the merits. Hereby, the official Hu Fuli reinstatement, and Feng Zhongxiao as a husband in the household. Because the emperor likes to have fun, and the emperor Zhu especially likes pipa music, so today the emperor arranged a pipa concert in the bedroom, specially arranged for Hu Fuli and the wind to laugh together! Hu Fuli and Feng Zhongxiao, as two doctors, can have the opportunity to enjoy singing and dancing with Emperor Zhu, it should be considered a great reward!
