Chapter 416: Crowning Ceremony
Li Shimin's surveillance of Jingyang has never stopped, and he has never trusted himself.
If you want to gain the trust of an emperor like Li Shimin, unless you are a wooden man.
He doesn't trust anyone easily.
The dolomite that was burned yesterday still needs to be burned.
The temperature that needs to be calcined is very high, and after scattering some silica powder, Li Zheng looked at the flames coming out of the big furnace, and after burning once, he broke into a ball and continued to burn.
This is a very tedious process.
By the third day of calcination, a large piece of dolomite was the size of an egg.
Tie Da took this piece of magnesium and said, "This is not iron either." ”
"This one is magnesium, not the same as iron."
Li Zheng took this piece of magnesium out of the blacksmith's shop, and the whole piece of magnesium ingot still needed to be ground into magnesium powder.
Use a knife to scrape some magnesium powder out.
Under Tie Da's gaze, Li Zheng slowly approached the magnesium powder with a wooden stick burning on fire.
When the white magnesium powder meets the flame, the magnesium powder suddenly ignites a very bewitching flame.
Tie Da looked at the bewitching flames closely, and he didn't care about the burning white smoke and pungent smell.
"Chang'an Ling, why is this flame so weird."
"Because it's magnesium."
Tie Da looked at the burned magnesium powder that had become black, and his nose leaned in and sniffed, "It doesn't seem to have the same smell as just now." ”
"It's not pure enough, but it's enough."
After Li Zheng finished speaking, he continued to calcine the dolomite, and the amount did not need to be too much, just enough for a firework.
This method of calcination is actually very polluting to the environment.
A miracle, just once.
The eldest grandson Wuji returned to Chang'an from Longyou, and these days he is less busy for the affairs of Longyou.
The carriage went all the way to Chang'an, and there were still some bumps, but it was almost to Jingyang, and when you arrived in Jingyang, you could get on a very smooth new road.
The wind blew the curtain, and the eldest grandson Wuji looked into the distance, which was originally a desolate yellow land, but now it looked lush.
There are also a few children who are planting trees together, and the trees are small saplings.
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly saw that Li Zhi, the king of Jin, was also among them.
sighed at the great changes in this piece, and also sighed that Li Zheng has received such a holy favor at a young age.
The Turks still have war reports coming to Chang'an, and every battle report will be sent to Chengtianmen to be read by His Majesty today.
Li Shimin paid so much attention to the Turkic war for another purpose, which was known only to a few people in the DPRK and China.
Fang Xuanling whispered to Du Ruhui: "It seems that Your Majesty's intention to go east is already obvious. ”
Du Ruhui sneered: "It's just a little Goguryeo, if it weren't for Your Majesty's consideration of the overall situation in order to stabilize the court." Maybe the troops will be sent long ago. ”
Fang Xuanling looked out the window at the bustling Chang'an City, "The marriage between Li Zheng and Princess Changle will start in spring next year." ”
Du Ruhui nodded, "Since you want to marry the princess, even if it is Li Zheng of the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea, he will have to come to Chang'an." ”
Fang Xuanling smiled silently.
"What are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I remembered the incident of His Majesty's tantrum before."
Lizheng Palace, Li Shimin has been in a very bad mood recently, and seeing that his daughter is making various preparations for the wedding, his heart is becoming more and more unhappy.
kept pouring tea into his mouth, and his shaking legs exposed the unwillingness of His Majesty today.
Li Shimin looked at his busy daughter and said to Empress Changsun: "Guanyin, do you say that I should regret my marriage." ”
Empress Changsun pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the arrow is ready to fly." ”
Li Shimin said with a dark face: "It's so cheap Li Zheng." ”
Li Lizhi is Li Shimin's favorite daughter, and no one in the court knows that Princess Changle is the pearl of His Majesty's palm today.
Empress Eldest Sun shook her head helplessly, and glanced at Li Shimin's displeased old face again.
Gao Yang, who was only ten years old, ran over and hugged Li Li's hand, and said coquettishly: "Sister Huang, I also want to follow Sister Huang to marry Li Zheng." ”
These words made Li Li laugh.
Hearing this, Li Shimin's face darkened.
Wang Ding, who was waiting on the side, saw Li Shimin's face was not good, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty wants to go to the toilet?" ”
"No!" Li Shimin popped out two words from between his teeth.
Wang Ding withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and continued to stand quietly on the side.
Empress Changsun said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, Gao Yang just thinks that after Lizhen marries, there will be no one to accompany her, and Gao Yang is too dependent on Lizhen's sister. ”
Li Shimin poured another sip of tea, stood up and said, "I'm going to practice swords." ”
There are some things that can't be said, as Li Shimin's wife, I have accompanied Li Shimin for so many years.
His thoughts, the eldest grandson, and the empress all understood.
Your Majesty is not a person who will be easily softened, and since he was young, His Majesty has always had a stubborn temper in his heart.
Li Zheng is a capable and talented person.
His Majesty wants to gather the best people in the world.
Let the world's outstanding people help govern the country.
It's just that Li Zheng is not an easy person to accept.
came and went, and His Majesty even used marriage to wait for Li Zheng to take the bait.
But this kid doesn't get in the oil and salt.
At present, Li Zheng still did not accept it.
With a long sigh, Empress Changsun is now worried about whether Li Zheng, the royal son-in-law, will continue to compete with His Majesty after Li Zheng and Li Zhen get married.
Empress Eldest Sun looked outside the hall, Her Majesty was already practicing the sword, and the practice was disorderly and even with some murderous aura.
It seems that Li Zheng will not be easy to marry the princess in Chang'an this time.
Empress Changsun beckoned a palace maid and whispered: "Send a message to Li Zheng and ask him to prepare early when he comes to Chang'an to marry the princess." ”
"Whoa."
The palace maid whispered back and quickly left to pass the word.
It's still autumn in Guanzhong, and the grassland is already snowing.
Xue Rengui led the team all the way out of the customs and into the grassland, but he did not encounter obstacles.
He took out the compass brought out of the academy from his bosom, discerned the direction, and said against the map: "Let's go east, let's go first to see how the Eastern Turks are doing." ”
After speaking, he took a team of 100 people and headed in the direction of the Eastern Turks.
A month later, in Jingyang, today is the day of Li Zheng's crown ceremony.
One of the most promising children in the village is about to reach adulthood, and the whole village is jubilant.
Happy, more than 20 pigs were killed in the village to celebrate Li Zheng's adulthood crown, and for a time Jingyang was filled with the howl of pigs.
Li Daxiong looked his son up and down and said, "Boy! You're an adult now, so don't be as frizzy as you used to be. ”
Li Zheng wanted to say when I was frizzy, and there were many guests in the village.
The old village chief organized the villagers to start a feast.
Li Tai put one hand on Li Zheng's shoulder, "In two years, this king will also be an adult." ”
Li Zheng glanced at the fat man and said, "His Royal Highness King Wei, the matter of losing weight can't be left behind, I see that your recent meat seems to have grown back again." ”
Li Tai withdrew his hand embarrassedly, "On such a good day, can you stop talking about such a disappointing thing?" ”
Li Yifu hurriedly came and said, "Chang'an Order, General Li Jing is here." ”
