Chapter 4: [Tang Dynasty version of wheelchair]

The sunlight came in openly through the window, and it was abusive to the flowers raised by the Crown Princess who had just woken up from the early morning. The flowers were moisturized, and the complexion was more beautiful and tender!

Li Chengqian has some advantages. He can't think about everything, and he just needs to sleep and he will think about it himself.

Look at this, he was sitting on the bed eating breakfast, whistling, making Su Mi and the palace maid below secretly cover their mouths and chuckle. But he still didn't care, he ate his and they laughed at them!

After eating, he pushed the bowl to the palace maid and said:

"Push me a wheelchair."

I wanted to have a one-day tour of the East Palace yesterday, but I couldn’t make it up today!

Su Mi and the palace maid were stunned: "Ah?"

"Wheelchair, can't take care of disabled people or what's wrong?"

Su Mi said embarrassedly: "Your Highness, what is a wheelchair?"

After she asked this, Li Chengqian realized that there was no humanized civilized tool like wheelchairs in this era! "You ancient people were really backward, and disabled people could not afford to be injured!" He muttered in a low voice.

Su Mi had sharp ears and she heard them: "Ah?"

"No." Li Chengqian waved his hand, and he thought to himself, how could this disabled person live without a wheelchair? Although there was no such thing as this era, can he be difficult to defend himself? It would be just not built for it. I am the prince, and I can use the huge resources of the Tang Dynasty for me. Are you still afraid that I can't build a wheelchair? "Xiao Gu, where is there a carpenter? I'll help me find one. I also bring a pen and paper."

Su Mi ordered the palace maid to find the carpenter, and when he came back, he saw two balls of paper under Li Chengqian's feet. He held a pen in a chicken claw style and drew something on the paper. Without a few strokes, he tore the paper in anger, kneaded it into a ball and threw it under his feet.

After tearing five or six pictures in a row, Su Mi asked curiously: "Your Highness, what are you going to draw?"

"wheelchair."

"A wheelchair is something made of bamboo branches, but what's the use?" Su Mi asked, pointing to the messy bamboo branches on the paper.

Li Chengqian blushed and tore up the bamboo branches that had just made progress, kneaded them into balls and threw them away. However, the quality of the paper in this era was not good, it was too crisp, and it flew in the air one by one.

He glared at Su Mi fiercely.

Su Mi pursed her lips and looked like she wanted to laugh or not.

At this time, the carpenter came, wearing light blue official uniform, standing and saluted: "Mr. Lu has seen His Royal Highness and the Princess. I wonder what his Royal Highness has to give?"

Li Chengqian was not curious about why this man did not kneel down when he saw the country's heir, nor did he call himself a slave. The etiquette and customs of the Tang Dynasty were not something that modern people could speculate or point fingers! He was very self-aware.

I just wanted to draw a wheelchair drawing, but Su Mi was disturbed. Although the most basic reason was Li Chengqian's bad painter, he overestimated his ability to draw whatever he thought he could think of. In fact, most people would think that they were familiar with things and could draw them vividly, but the result was often terrible.

Anyway, don’t think about the wheelchair drawings, and the carpenter couldn’t let him see it when he came. Li Chengqian’s eyes slipped to a short stool below. In this era, there were only such stools, very short and had no backrest. But when Li Chengqian saw it, he felt like he saw the prototype of a wheelchair!

Li Chengqian waved to Carpenter Lu, let him get closer, and said, "I have foot disease, so make me a wheelchair. You don't know what a wheelchair is, right? I tell you that it's a chair with wheels, which can be used for people with disabilities like me. What does a wheelchair look like? Come on, look at this stool, widen and elevate, change all his four legs to wheels, and then there is a handrail here, and the push hands that can be pushed behind... Here... There... Do you understand?"

Everyone around was staring blankly at Li Chengqian's explanation. There was a prototype in front of him, and Li Chengqian made a great transformation. As one of the leading characters now, Carpenter Lu was stunned. When Li Chengqian asked him, he woke up: "Your Highness, although the young man didn't understand everything, he also guessed it. It's just this..."

Carpenter Lu was confused about this. The prince said it was a chair, but the wheels were loaded on the car, and it was so wide and high. Isn't it a bed? If this was built, would it be a chair, a car, or a bed?

Li Chengqian also felt that even if he could understand it, these ancient people might not be able to understand it, so he nodded: "Well, then you can create it as you imagined. I will tell you what is wrong."

Carpenter Lu went down, and Su Mi stood beside him with a curious look on her face, but she didn't take the initiative to ask. Li Chengqian said angrily: "What are you doing when you want to ask, just ask!"

Su Mi smiled embarrassedly: "Your Highness, are you talking about a carriage?"

Li Chengqian's forehead turned black and his wheelchair became a carriage! "No, it's not necessarily a carriage with wheels. The wheels are for the convenience of sliding of the chair. It is much smaller than a carriage, and he can only sit one person... Well, of course, if you want to sit two people, you can also sit one person and hold one person."

He looked at the Crown Princess and imagined that he was sitting in a wheelchair and holding the Crown Princess... Wow, there is spring for disabled people!

"Oh, it turns out to be a shrinking carriage!" Su Mi thought for a while with her round chin raised and said.

I fell, it was still a carriage!

It seems that ancient people had poor imagination and only thought of carriages!

However, ancient people were very efficient. Carpenter Lu came to see Li Chengqian with a "wheelchair" two hours later.

Seeing this Tang Dynasty version of the "wheelchair", Li Chengqian almost collapsed.

Its chair is more than one meter long and more than one meter wide. Four wooden wheels of the same size were installed under the chair board. Where the chair should be the back of the chair, a vertical wooden stick was nailed to make a pusher. This... it was like cutting four legs with a table and installing wheels underneath. The upper part of the wheel can be used as a handrail for the wheelchair, and then installing a pusher like a wheelbarrow behind it...

"Your Highness..." Lu Carpenter Zhan Zhan asked timidly: "Is it wrong for the young man to do something wrong?"

Su Mi pulled Li Chengqian's sleeve, and then he closed his mouth so surprised that he opened his mouth and said to Carpenter Ru, "You did the right thing."

It is already quite amazing that he can make the wheelchair that Li Chengqian said like this. "The Lu carpenter is really brilliant and has a magical craft! I have a little idea and want to talk to Master Lu."

Master Lu was surprised and happy when he was praised, and he made a decent statement.

"This technology needs to be constantly innovated and reformed, and this product needs to be continuously upgraded. We need to upgrade to the humanized and simplified aspect. Look at this wheelchair, I think this wheel will be twisted into hands or clothes when floating on the chair. Then you can find a way to hide it under the chair, and the two wheels in front can be replaced with small ones. The back of this chair, don't have a piece of firewood, you can replace it with a wooden board, so you can rely on it..."

Master Lu practiced the first wheelchair and had further prototypes for reference. After listening to Li Chengqian's words, he immediately understood and showed a sudden surprise.

"Your Highness..." A small yellow gate (ethnic) ran in outside the door and shouted in panic.

"Who are you? Didn't you see my Master Lu inventing high-tech products?" Li Chengqian shouted bluntly.

Xiaohuangmen was shocked and wanted to say something but dared not say anything.

Li Chengqian asked Master Lu: "Does the master understand?"

"I understand, I understand. Your Highness the Crown Prince is so talented. Lu admires it. I will make it for Your Highness the Crown Prince!" After that, he ran out hurriedly.

That look like a treasure made Li Chengqian laugh.

Su Mi was already standing next to the little yellow gate and asked him about it. Su Mi walked back to Li Chengqian with a hurried face and said, "Your Highness, the queen is critically ill, let's go there quickly."

"Empress?" Li Chengqian said he didn't know each other.

"The Empress is Your Highness's mother, your biological mother." Su Mi has arranged for the palace maid to dress Li Chengqian, and then arranged for the eunuchs to prepare what they should prepare.

When Li Chengqian heard that his biological mother was critically ill, he felt anxious.

He thought of his previous life, one time when his mother was hospitalized late at night. If it weren't for rescue, he would have almost never seen his mother's last time when he rushed back in Guangzhou. Since then, he has been scared. If he escaped this time, will there be a next time? So since his mother was discharged from the hospital, he has been thinking more about her health and trying not to go on a business trip, but at night.

Now that he heard that the Queen, the biological mother who is now in her body, is critically ill, Li Chengqian's mood once again. For a moment, he couldn't figure out the question of "This queen is not her original mother, but her current mother. Should she be the mother of her body?" Anyway, he was anxious and could not let a critically ill mother not see her son for the last time.

"Quick, all of it!" he shouted.

The palace maids obviously speeded up their hand, and others also accelerated their hand under the influence of Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian asked Su Mi who came back and added a coat: "Where is my mother living?"

The name of mother is not popular in Chang'an, but Su Mi knows the meaning. Since Li Chengqian is now a disabled person, it is no wonder.

Here, the author Wu Bi wants to provide historical materials. At that time, Chang'an called Mom Mom and Mom - it seemed to be a habit in the south. This Mom is our own in China. Do many readers think that Mom is an imported product translated from English? It is actually wrong. We had Mom in ancient times.

"Guangya. Shiqin" records: Mom, Mom.

"Guangya" is the earliest encyclopedia dictionary in China. It was written during the Taihe period of Emperor Ming of Wei in the Three Kingdoms (227-230 AD). When the English-speaking men called their mother "Meng" or something, we had already called them mother in a serious manner. Students, from this, have you felt the vastness of Chinese culture? The author, am I proud of our culture, are you proud?

Su Mi replied: "Your Highness, my mother lives in the Lizheng Hall of Tai Chi Palace."

Li Chengqian didn't know him, but he was not afraid of having Su Mi lead the way. "I said why are you wearing so many clothes for me? These two pieces are enough!" He suddenly shouted to the palace maid who was adding clothes to him next to him.

The palace maid was scolded by him and was so scared that she knelt on the ground. Su Mi wanted to say something, Li Chengqian stuffed her clothes and pulled Su Mi's hand and said, "Go away, go see my mother!"
