Chapter 20 Much more precious
"It's easy to break? It's glass, right? ”
As soon as he heard his brother's words, Li Shimin immediately guessed the answer, smiling and at the same time a little disapproving-now not only the Daxing Palace, but also the bedroom and study where Li Shimin lives every day have been replaced with glass, and his demand for this kind of thing has been reduced to zero......
It's not that I don't want more, after all, there are so many palaces in Daxing Palace, and Li Shimin has so many concubines, which one doesn't blow him a few words of pillow wind when he sleeps, and wants to get a few pieces of glass in his own place?
In the past period of time, Li Shimin was tired of hearing the same words.
But no matter who blows the wind on the pillow, Li Shimin ignores it. Because after the death of Empress Changsun, there was no one in the harem who could make Li Shimin change his mind.
So no matter who wanted it, Li Shimin didn't nod, and he was so anxious that he even reprimanded the other party.
The reason is very simple, although he is His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and it is his younger brother King Han who made the glass, but he can't always dominate all the output of other people's palaces, right? Others don't say it, Zhao Guogong, Lu Guogong, and their sons and younger brothers, which one is not eager to wear it, waiting for Li Yuanjia to install glass windows for them?
And also......
The price of this piece of glass was set by Li Yuanjia, can the emperor really continue to prostitute for nothing?
In any case, Li Shimin will no longer continue to dominate his younger brother's glass production, and in his eyes, how can the old courtiers who once fought the world together be more important than the concubines in the harem, right?
So when he heard his younger brother's words, Li Shimin was really a little uninterested.
It's just glass, at most, it's more translucent, and it's not interesting.
It's just that Li Yuanjia didn't care, just smiled and pretended to be mysterious and said: "Second brother, what I am going to give you this time is not ordinary glass, but a good thing made of glass......
"Good things made out of glass? What is it? ”
first asked casually, and then Li Shimin immediately seemed to remember something, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Eleven, it can't be the thing I told me last time, right?" ”
"Huh? What did I say? ”
After listening to the emperor's words, Li Yuanjia was stunned, and he was a little confused for a while.
About the mirror, he told Li Shimin?
"Hehe, that's where you're going to grow vegetables in the winter!"
After his brows twitched twice, Li Shimin squinted his eyes and smiled: "I remember it clearly, you once said that if you build a big house with dozens or hundreds of pieces of glass, you can grow vegetables in it, and you can grow live in winter...... How, already built? ”
"Uh......"
The corners of his mouth twitched, and Li Yuanjia was speechless.
The idea of a glass greenhouse has naturally appeared a long time ago, after all, for a modern person, it is too painful to not be able to eat real vegetables in winter. Although there are cabbages in this year, and you can also rely on tea to supplement vitamins in winter, Li Yuanjia still wants to eat real green vegetables.
Therefore, he must build a vegetable greenhouse during the Zhenguan period, and he must build it.
Merely......
"Alas, it's difficult!"
As soon as he thought of the difficulties of Chen Mu and their construction of the "glass greenhouse", Li Yuanjia couldn't help but sigh secretly - the current glass is still too brittle, and it is good to take care of it on the window, but it is really a bit "dangerous" if it is placed on the roof. I don't dare to think about hail or something, but it can be crushed by a little heavier rain and snow, which makes people helpless......
"Growing vegetables in the winter? A house made of glass? ”
After hearing the emperor's words, Li Yuanjia was still sad, but Li Ke was already dumbfounded.
"A house made of glass? Wouldn't that collapse easily?
Just then, another page of voice came. And Li Yuanjia turned his head and looked at it, and suddenly had a headache...... Li Zhi, a little brat, doesn't know when the page came over. And beside him were the crown prince Li Chengqian and the king of Wei, Li Tai, who were just toasting with the ministers of the court and the central government......
Don't say it, if you only look at the situation at this time, it is definitely brotherly harmony!
It's just that Li Yuanjia knows very well in his heart that the current Li Chengqian has begun to "deteriorate", and because of the emperor's favor, Li Tai's power has also begun to grow sharply!
The relationship between the two of them can never go back to the past.
But at least for now, outsiders who don't know what's going on can't see anything. And seeing Li Zhi and Li Tai coming, some of the ministers around who originally wanted to come over to say hello also quietly stopped at this time.
The royal circle, it's better not to come over and join in the fun at this time.
Whizzing to Li Shimin's side, the youngest Li Zhi widened his eyes and asked, "Father, can you really build a house with glass?" Wouldn't that be all shattered with a push? ”
"Haha, I'm going to ask you Eleventh Emperor Uncle."
"Ahem!"
In the emperor's laughter, Li Yuanjia resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and helplessly explained: "Xiaozhi, it's not all made of glass...... No matter how good I was, I wouldn't be able to build that kind of house! ”
is not very familiar with King Jin, but it does not prevent Li Yuanjia from putting up his uncle's shelf.
"That ......"
"It's very simple, it's just that the house has more glass."
Seeing that several nephews were surrounding him, Li Yuanjia also knew that he might not be able to explain it clearly, so he simply spread his hands and said: "The reason why those green vegetables can't be planted in winter is that it's too cold!" So my idea was to just use more glass in the house so that the sunlight could shine in, and then burn a few more charcoal fires inside to warm up the ......."
“……”
Listening to the emperor's explanation, including the crown prince, all the people surnamed Li were dumbfounded.
Holy, can you do this?
This is to build a house for those greens!
Several people all widened their eyes and looked directly at this eleventh emperor uncle, saying that it was very incredible-it is natural for people to live in a house, and it is natural to build a shelter for the family's livestock, but ......
Who has ever heard of building a house for greens?
However, after a brief period of consternation, the eyes of the princes soon lit up, and their expressions became excited again...... Especially Li Tai's little fat man, after blinking his eyes desperately a few times, he quickly looked thoughtful, and seemed to have figured out something.
The wish of the glass greenhouse is actually really simple. Even the ancients could figure it out even if they thought about it a little - for them, the key to constraint was the material, not the idea......
Just when they all had ideas, the surrounding officials consciously did not come forward to disturb.
And seeing the strong curiosity on the faces of his nephews, Li Yuanjia secretly screamed bitterly, and didn't dare to slack off, and said directly to Li Shimin: "Second brother, the things that my brother brought today are indeed made of glass, but this thing is much more valuable than the glass on the window......
