Chapter 304: Sharing a Tent

Li An led the officials of the Ministry of Labor to inspect the road from Chang'an City to the Hot Spring Palace, in order to find the best way to lay the railroad tracks. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

All the officials of the Ministry of Industry have seen the railroad tracks built by Li Ang and the vehicles traveling on the railroad tracks, and they are naturally very clear about the road requirements of the rails, and they know how to find the road, how to give advice to Li An, and at the same time, they can also understand what Li Ang said.

But Li Yu and Li Li hadn't seen the railroad tracks with their own eyes, and they didn't know what kind of vehicles could travel on the rails, so the two of them couldn't understand what Li An was saying at all, so they could only follow behind with wide eyes.

Li Yu was better, since he didn't understand, he looked left and right, admiring the beautiful mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty, but Li Yu seemed a little anxious and impatient.

He was very happy when he first learned that Li Longji had let him meet Li Anchang, thinking that he could learn a lot of knowledge by following Li An, but unexpectedly, Li An had been talking to the officials of the Ministry of Industry about what railroad tracks, the bending of the road, how much manpower and earth and stone were needed to raise a certain section of the road, etc., these were very boring and more professional topics, Li Yu didn't understand, and he didn't know how to ask, so he could only helplessly look at the road under his feet and think about other things.

Ang Lee agreed to let the two emperors and grandsons follow him, and also said that he would answer the questions raised by the two emperors and grandsons, but never said that he would take the initiative to talk to them, so Ang Lee snubbed them at the moment and did not break any promise.

Of course, Li An did not deliberately snub the two of them, but he must complete the task assigned to him by Li Longji as soon as possible, and determine the railway line from the north gate of Daming Palace to the Hot Spring Palace.

At noon, Duan Xiushi hunted a few wild animals nearby, and the servants of the Ministry of Industry officials also brought enough food, so everyone found a clean place in a mountain col and began to make a fire to cook.

Li An took out his own braised chicken legs and walked towards Li Yu and Li Li.

All morning, Li An was busy discussing the issue of railroad laying with the officials of the Ministry of Industry, not only did he not take the initiative to talk to Li Yu and Li Li, but he didn't even look at them, now is the time to eat, of course Li An can't continue to be so indifferent, otherwise, not only will the two of them be dissatisfied, but Li Longji will also be unhappy when he knows about it.

"I made braised chicken thighs, you can try them!"

Everyone was the same age, and Li An didn't even bother to shout the names of the two of them, and directly stuffed two braised chicken legs into their hands.

Li Yu and Li Li did not refuse, and directly reached out to take the braised chicken leg that Li An gave them, and unceremoniously stuffed it into their mouths.

"It's delicious, it tastes so good, it's even better than what the imperial chef in the palace makes."

Li Yu directly gave an evaluation, and Li Yu also hurriedly nodded, affirming Li Yu's words.

"Can the braised pork I made by myself not taste good? Eat more, if you like, I have a lot more. ”

Ang Lee is now talking to these two emperors and grandsons in the tone of a friend, so that it is more cordial and easy to shorten the distance between each other.

Sure enough, after this conversation, Li Yu and Li Li's mood improved significantly, and a slight smile appeared on their originally gloomy faces,

"King Guangping, Shiro, I was ordered by His Majesty to inspect the road, and I failed to take care of you, please forgive me."

Ang Lee said softly.

"Li Shilang is polite, but Xiao Wang followed all the way, and he couldn't understand anything, which was really embarrassing! I don't know what railroad tracks are, and what are they used for? ”

Li Yu was a little more generous and asked directly.

"Haha! These things, neither of you have ever seen them, and it is normal that you don't understand them, so you don't have to be ashamed, after a few days, I will take you to experience the use of the railroad tracks, and you will naturally understand, in addition, as long as you follow me, there will be a lot of things to see and hear in the future, and it will definitely be more interesting than staying in Baisun Courtyard. ”

Ang Lee comforted and threw out a tempting future.

"Well, that's great."

Li Yu looked very happy, and glanced at Li Li, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is not bad, and it seems to be very good.

Of course, this may also be disguised, after all, Li Yu and Li Yu are both about to become adults, sixteen or seventeen years old, they are no longer children, and it cannot be ruled out at all that they deliberately pretend to be very good for some purpose.

But no matter how Ang Lee looks, he can't see that the feeling between them is disguised, if it is really disguised, it can only mean that their acting skills are too high, and even an old man like Ang Lee can't see it.

In short, Ang Lee prefers to believe that the feelings between them are sincere, pure, and unadulterated.

Lunch was very short, and after eating, the group continued to hurry, and Li An continued to discuss with the officials of the Ministry of Industry about laying the railway, and asked the officials of surveying and mapping to draw the roads that had been preliminarily determined on the drawings so as to facilitate the next work.

Li Yu and Li Li still followed behind with nothing to do, watching Li An and the officials of the Ministry of Labor pointing out the country, although they were still a little disappointed, but when they thought that in a few days, they would be able to see the railroad tracks, and they became a little expectant, even if they were idle, they could enjoy the surrounding scenery, which was much more comfortable than staying in the small environment of Baisunyuan.

In the evening, Ang Lee decided to camp outside the hot spring palace to take a good rest, and return along the same route the next day, and appropriately expand the scope of the investigation to confirm whether the route designed the day before was the best one.

The place of dinner is in the campsite, and it is also a clean mountain recess, in fact, the warm and comfortable hot spring palace is next to it, but it is the emperor's private palace, except for the emperor himself, no one else can enter casually, even Li Yu, who was born in the emperor's grandson, is no exception, so he can only be aggrieved and sleep outside.

Fortunately, when the team set off, they brought enough supplies, and of course there was no shortage of tents, and it was still very easy to set up a dozen tents in the mountain recess.

In the afternoon, Duan Xiushi and Li Yu's guards each shot a lot of prey, and after the tent was set up, they lit a bonfire next to the tent and roasted the cleaned prey on the bonfire.

Fresh prey is roasted over a fire, giving off a rich aroma, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper makes the taste even more enticing.

Li An, Li Yu and Li Li sat around a bonfire, roasting game while chatting casually, of course, the task of barbecue is Li An alone, Li Yu and Li Li are only responsible for chatting.

"Li Shilang, you seem to be very good at barbecue! Very skilled, like a hunter. ”

Li Yu saw that Li An turned the wooden pole very smoothly, and the action of sprinkling salt and pepper was very professional, so he joked.

"King Guangping has good eyesight, although I am not a real hunter, but my hunting skills are much stronger than ordinary hunters, even professional hunters who make a living from hunting can only bow to the wind, foxes are the most cunning prey, but as long as they meet me, they will definitely not be able to escape."

Li An is not bragging, all this is a real thing, with his archery skills and strength, as long as he sees a fox and shoots it with an arrow, where is it possible to escape.

"Wow, Li Shilang is so powerful."

Li Yu and Li Yu suddenly all cast envious eyes, they have also practiced archery, but the level is really not very good, when hunting, it is difficult to even shoot a deer, let alone such a cunning prey as a fox.

"Li Shilang, I heard that you came from Yingzhou, isn't it very cold over there, and there must be a lot of prey!"

Li Li looked very curious, with eyes full of anticipation.

Li An nodded and said: "Yingzhou is located in the north, it is a bitter cold place, of course the weather is very cold, much colder than this side of Chang'an City, and there are many more prey than here, just on the White Wolf Mountain, there are countless prey, every time you go up the mountain, you can hit a lot of prey, and you can't eat it all!" When the furs were taken to the city, they could be sold for a very high price. ”

"White Wolf Mountain, why is it called this name, are there many white wolves in the mountain?"

Li Yu asked suspiciously.

"White wolf, of course there is, otherwise how can it be called White Wolf Mountain, once, I went up the mountain alone, and I met more than a hundred white wolves, with teeth and claws coming to me from all directions,"

Halfway through his speech, Ang Lee deliberately stopped and hung the appetite of the two.

"And then? How did Li Shilang get out of danger. ”

Li Li asked nervously.

"Shiro, you should ask how the white wolf got out of danger."

Li An corrected Li Li domineeringly, and said proudly: "At that time, the white wolves rushed from all directions, the scene was extremely spectacular, but how could I be afraid of them, I stood still, bent the bow and arrows, one arrow at a time, and shot thirty wolves in a row, however, the wild nature of the wolf was too great, and the remaining seventy wolves still rushed to me, I clenched the spear, swept and assassinated, and killed all the white wolves who approached one by one, and the snow was full of wolf blood, I roared, and the remaining thirty wolves could no longer support it, Wailing and fleeing, I bent my bow and shot a dozen fleeing wolves again, and the rest were gone. ”

Li Yu and Li Li were stunned when they listened, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry who were on the bonfire next to them heard Li An's story, and gradually came over, and listened dumbfounded.

"Li Shilang, you are too powerful, the white wolves of White Wolf Mountain have been killed by you!"

Li Yu asked.

Li An shook his head and said, "No, since that time, I have never killed a white wolf." ”

"Why?"

"These white wolves are smarter, smarter than foxes, as long as they smell me, they hide, if they see me, they will run away faster than rabbits, and they will not have time to kill them."

Li An shook his head, looking helpless.

This story was actually made up by Ang Lee, in order to establish some kind of prestige of his own, so that Li Yu and Li Yu could be convinced, however, Ang Lee definitely has such strength, but he didn't encounter the right opportunity, and it is not bragging, at most it is a reasonable assumption.

Pretending to be too big, sometimes it is inevitable to be suspicious, among the officials of the Ministry of Industry who gradually surrounded them, there are many people whose eyes show suspicion of Li An, of course, they absolutely dare not say this, because, Li An is now the squire of the Ministry of Industry, is their leader, what the leader says, how can it be doubted? Even if the leader farts, it is fragrant.

The game, sprinkled with salt and pepper, was quickly roasted, and Li An took the game down and divided the meat into three large pieces with a dagger, allowing Li Yu and Li Li to hold it by themselves.

Li Li's current identity is lower than Li Yu, of course he didn't dare to take it first, looked at Li Yu, and let Li Yu pick first.

Li Yu was not polite, picked the best piece of meat away, and looked at Li Yu and Li An apologetically.

Li Li took the smallest piece and left the medium one for Li An.

"Well, it's delicious, Li Shilang's roasted meat is better than anyone else's roast."

As soon as Li Yu took a bite, he let out a heartfelt admiration.

Li Li also nodded again and again, praising Ang Lee's good craftsmanship with his eyes.

If you want to talk about the craftsmanship of making food, Ang Lee is really no worse than anyone else, after all, Ang Lee comes from the later generations of food everywhere, and knows a lot of food practices, and in this era of the Tang Dynasty, the level of food is too poor, even the most powerful imperial chef in the palace can make more types of food than Ang Lee.

Ang Lee believes that if he aspires to be a chef, he must be the chef with the best skills in Datang, but Ang Lee's ideal is not to be a chef, so the reputation of the world's first chef can only be given to others.

Eating fragrant barbecue and chatting about interesting topics, Li Yu and Li Li's mood became better and better, although during the day, Li An didn't have the time to take care of them, which made them feel bored, but at this moment, they felt very excited, and after listening to many stories told by Li An, they felt that they had indeed grown a lot of knowledge, in addition, they grew so big, it was the first time to sleep in the wild, and this feeling of camping for the first time was of course even more wonderful.

"Li Shilang, there are not many tents here, so let's sleep in one tent for the three of us! In this way, two tents can be saved for others. ”

Li Yu opened his mouth to suggest that the officials of the Ministry of Industry considered that Li Yu, Li Li, and Li An's status were relatively high, and when arranging tents, they arranged one for each of the three of them in the extremely limited tents, so that the rest of the people would be very crowded, and even could only sleep in the open.

And Li Yu's suggestion can greatly ease the tension in the tent and ensure that everyone can live in the tent.

Of course, the reason why the tent was tense was because Li Yu and his dozen or so guards, as well as Li Li, all joined the team suddenly, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry did not receive notice in advance, so naturally they did not prepare their tents.

"I agree."

Li Li nodded happily to Li An.

Li An grinned: "Okay, since you brothers agree, then it's decided, tonight, the three of us will live in a tent together, and in the future, you will always remember this night, the three of us lived happily together." ”

"Well, we'll remember this night forever."

Li Yu and Li Yu responded happily. (To be continued.) )
