Gongsun Hong was still a little apprehensive, but after seeing the raw materials brought by Huo Quai, he immediately relaxed.

"Aren't they just stones, see what tricks you can play!"

Liu Che was also a little disappointed.

Saltpeter ore is not a rare thing, but belongs to the alchemy raw material that can be found everywhere.

And because the refining technology is not mature, except for Taoist priests, few people will go to specialized mining.

Of course, because there are so many of them, it's easy to get.

How could such a ubiquitous thing really make ice?

Liu Che secretly glanced at Wei Qing: "If you don't succeed later, you must not let Mr. Tang really polish the prime minister's boots!" ”

He is a disciple of Xianmen, and he doesn't know how many treasures he has in his head.

If he was really forced to polish Gongsun Hong's boots, would he lose face and walk away in a rage?

That's a big loss!

Wei Qing nodded slightly: "The minister understands." ”

He is not from a scholar family, but he knows the stinky temper of scholars best.

Later, as long as you see the signs of the failure of ice making, you will immediately find a small military intelligence to report to the Son of Heaven, and find a way to change the topic!

Gongsun Hong couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw the interaction between the emperor and Wei Qing.

Tang Qi, you're dead!

Shining shoes or not polishing boots is of no value to this political animal.

can let Your Majesty go to such great lengths to excuse you, and then the old man only needs to behave a little sensibly and give His Majesty face.

The contrast will be obvious!

How can a courtier who will take the initiative to cause trouble to the monarch and cause the monarch to wipe his ass with his own face, how can he be reused?

At that time, the status of this official will be worry-free!

Tang Qi didn't pay attention to the undercurrent surging on the high platform, and arranged Huo Quzhi to do this and that very briskly.

"Pour some water into the basin first, and then put the basin in the bucket."

"Alright, get out of the way."

Under Huo Quzhi's curious gaze, Tang Qi poured all the saltpeter into the bucket in one go.

Then add a lot of water.

Thick white smoke rose from the barrel, completely obscuring the basin of water.

"It's over." Tang Qi clapped his hands and said, "Wait, it will freeze soon." ”

"That's it?" Huo Quzhi opened his mouth wide and asked in disbelief.

He also thought that the saltpeter he brought was just one of the raw materials, and the real secret recipe Tang Qi must have carried it with him.

As a result, it really doesn't work for anything but saltpeter?

"Brother Tang, don't you bluff, right?" Huo Quzhi said worriedly, "Gongsun Hong's old man is very scheming, if you don't succeed this time, he will definitely poke Your Majesty to alienate you!" ”

Tang Qi pouted: "If you wait for you, just wait quietly, it won't take long!" ”

"This."

Huo Qu was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling up.

The onlookers Zhijingo and Yulin Jun also looked at the water basin with the eyes of a joke.

How can it be so easy to make ice on this hot day!

Mr. Tang must have rushed to the doctor in a hurry, delaying time here!

Gongsun He quietly approached Su Jian: "Eh, you say, is this big peasant order pretending to be a ghost?" Wait for a while, when it gets dark, His Majesty wants to drive back to the palace, and he said that the time has not yet come, and the ice can't be made, perfunctory? ”

Su Jian nodded: "The last general thinks that it should be like this." ”

"If that's the case, we'll have to cover him later." Gongsun He shrugged, "Don't let the old man of the prime minister grab the handle, the bad guy has given us several big gifts!" ”

No one thought Tang Qi could really make ice.

Or, like Gongsun Hong, wait to see Tang Qi's jokes.

Either like Wei Qing and other generals, they were dazzled by compound bows, lighters, binoculars and other things, and now looking at Tang Qi is like looking at a lover.

How will he be relieved of his headache and so on.

However, at a time when people were thinking differently.

But suddenly there was an exclamation.

"This, this, this!" I saw Huo Quzhi pointing to the water basin, and his expression was as if he had seen a ghost, "How did this water turn into ice?!" ”

"What?!"

Liu Che stood up and said with great joy: "It's really done?!" ”

Tang Qiyun said lightly: "I've told you all, it's very easy to make ice, who made you not believe it?" ”

"I believe it, I really believe it this time!" Huo Quzhi cautiously touched the basin, and then immediately retracted his hand, "It's ice, it's really ice!" ”

"Really?"

"Can you really conjure ice out of thin air?"

"Wow, it's so cold! This must be the ice running away! ”

"Mr. Tang is really a god!"

The soldiers immediately blew up the pot, and the bold ones ran to touch it, and the timid ones probed their brains on the side.

Looking at Tang Qi's eyes, there was also a hint of awe.

In the eyes of the superstitious ancients, Tang Qi, who can conjure ice out of thin air, is undoubtedly covered with a layer of mystery!

Even Wei Qing ran down curiously and tried to touch the ice in the basin: "Your Majesty, what you said about going sick is right, it's indeed ice!" ”

Gongsun He was dumbfounded: "Good girl, did you really get it for him?" ”

Tang Qi was helpless: "What are your reactions, do you think I'm lying?" ”

Isn't that it?

Everyone was a little embarrassed.

Liu Che didn't come down this time to try it for himself, compared to the lighter and telescope just now, ice can't arouse his desire for the time being.

And Gongsun Hong next to him had an expression of being struck by thunder.

No way!

That kid just said so much, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is really bragging.

It's really made?!

Doesn't that mean?

Gongsun Hong's face was blue and white, and he glared at Tang Qi with a cannibalistic gaze.

If you dare to really mention the boot-polishing thing, the old man and you are not finished!

Is Donch a threatened person?

Necessarily not.

"Your Majesty, I've already done what I said, it's the turn of the prime minister, right?" Tang Qi found a wooden stake and sat down, and leisurely cocked his feet, the meaning was self-evident.

"Uh." Liu Che froze, "This, Prime Minister, do you see?" ”

Gongsun Hong is such a shrewd person, how could he not see that the emperor was asking his opinion on the surface, but he was actually supporting Tang Qi!

It seems that he has repeatedly attacked Tang Qi, which really displeased the saint.

No matter how you say it, you are the prime minister!

How can the prime minister polish his boots for a mere farmer's order, isn't that a mess!

Gongsun Hong said angrily: "You are doing mysterious, how can the old man be sure that this ice-making method does not cost much money?" If you hide the secret recipe and only put saltpeter on the bright side, wouldn't it be a deception! ”

Tang Qi smiled dumbly: "This step is not complicated, if the prime minister doesn't believe it, why don't you come down and try it yourself?" It doesn't take much time anyway. ”

"The prime minister has said this." Liu Che was also dissatisfied, "Mr. Tang is a disciple of the Xianmen, and he never exaggerates, I still know this." ”

Gongsun Hong's face was red and his ears were red.

Do you really want to shine the shoes of this child?

Where is his face?

However, under Liu Che's forced gaze, Gongsun Hong could only walk down with a calm face.

He took a piece of linen cloth from the soldier's hand and swept it casually over Tang Qi's feet.

Then walk away!

"Tang Qi, the old man remembers you!"
