~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wang Ke really felt a little bored, the seventh day of the first month had passed, and the people of the Tang Dynasty were still immersed in the festival, doing nothing, and they had to start working after the fifteenth day of the first month. The people in the family are either visiting relatives and friends, or a few people are sitting together, playing mahjong "invented" by Wang Ke, and the house is full of mahjong's "whooshing" sound every day.

When Wang Ke was in later generations, after the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, all units began to work, and Wang Ke had already become accustomed to that rhythm. Now he has a lot of things in his hands, but he can't find anyone to do it, Wang Ke is really depressed, but in the face of such a custom, Wang Ke can't and can't change it, so he has to find something to do for himself.

Looking at the list of all the things written in his hand, Wang Ke really didn't know what he could do alone. Some people may say that Wang Ke can design the house by himself, but in the face of the cross-courtyard and the row of houses where Wang Ke lives now, the walls are blocked and the landscape is numerous, and Wang Ke alone can't even measure the size. It can be said that it is an impossible task for one person to get the actual size of the entire piece of land.

Wang Ke was stunned for a long time, and then found a thing to do for himself, and wrote out the process of all things, one by one, so that the craftsmen could do things according to the process after the start of construction, and in this way, Wang Ke did not have to go back and forth in several things because he had to tell the craftsmen what to do next and how to do it at any time. When you think about it, that's a good thing.

Wang Ke carefully and conscientiously wrote out the production (work) process and precautions of each work. Not to mention, Wang Ke just kept mixed until the morning of the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, and a thick stack of paper full of words was placed on the desk in the study.

Wang Ke looked at these things written to pass the time, stretched his waist, and said to himself: "Okay, this is also done, and the time is almost mixed, so I will rest for a few days." It's a week of work, and it's time for a big week. ”

Wang Ke walked out of the study wantonly, and as soon as he came to his door, he heard the sound of mahjong in the house.

Wang Ke asked casually: "Mother, why didn't you see your father, where did you go to play?" ”

Mrs. Wang didn't raise her head, looked at the card and said, "Your father and son are both virtuous." You spend all day in the study, and your father runs out all day. When you come out, I ask your father, and when your father comes back, I ask you. ”

As he spoke, he stopped to look at the cards in his hand, played a card, and then said, "Your father went out early in the morning, maybe he went to the minister's house again." By the way, Ke'er, why aren't you in the study today? ”

Wang Ke replied, "The child's business will come out when he is done." ”

Wang Ke didn't have anything to do with himself, remembering that he hadn't gone anywhere this year, and he was okay today, so he should go to find Li Ke, and it could be regarded as going to pay him a New Year's greeting.

So he said to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, the child will go to the Third Highness, this is the New Year, His Royal Highness has helped the child so much, and the child should also thank him." If there is anything to do, just go to His Highness's mansion to find the child. ”

Mrs. Wang was having a good time, and she looked at the cards and said, "Go, go!" ”

Wang Ke went out and drove directly to Li Ke's mansion, and walked directly inside without being announced.

The people in Li Ke's mansion knew his relationship with His Royal Highness, and they did not stop him, accompanied him to the front hall to sit down, and served him tea before telling Li Ke.

When Li Ke heard that Wang Ke was coming, he hurriedly came out of the backyard, and when he saw Wang Ke, he said: "You still know that you came to me, I thought you had forgotten which direction my door here opened!" ”

Wang Ke understood that Li Ke was complaining that he hadn't come to him for a long time, so he pretended to be serious and said: "It's not that I don't want to come, this is the New Year, who knows if your Royal Highness is not at home." If His Royal Highness was having affairs with several princesses of the county when I came, wouldn't the villain be uncomfortable? This is estimated that the things that should be done have been done, and His Highness should be idle, isn't the villain coming? ”

Li Ke smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, I said a word to lead you to say this a lot, I know that you are not, let's say, why did you think of me here today?" ”

Wang Ke smiled and said: "To be honest, I did have something to do a few days ago, and I came over as soon as I finished it today." Nothing else, just here to play. ”

Li Ke said in disbelief: "What can happen to this New Year? If you don't come, don't come, and you don't need to make excuses! ”

Wang Ke said helplessly: "It's really something, I wrote a charter for everything to be done after the New Year, and when the time comes, as long as the craftsman does it." I can also find time for something else. This tells you the truth, why don't you believe it! ”

Li Ke saw that Wang Ke said this, and finally believed it, so he asked, "What's the matter?" Listen to your tone, there's a lot more to it. ”

Wang Ke told Li Ke everything he wrote out, and clearly explained the intention of each thing.

Li Ke couldn't help but be interested, and said: "I said Brother Wang, I have nothing to do anyway, just accompany you to do it, let me also see what these things are like." ”

Wang Ke shook his head and said, "Don't mix these things." If you're really bored, do something that will do you a great good. Do you remember what I said before, let you get an official and a half-position in the court? When this is done, you can become an official. ”

Li Ke is actually ambitious in his heart, but he understands his position, and he only makes a lazy appearance on weekdays, giving others a feeling that he Li Ke is an idle prince, not interested in court affairs, and only knows the wind and snow one day. But who knows that he also wants to contribute to the court and share the emperor's worries.

He has always kept this idea in his heart, and he can't say it and can't do it. Because with his identity, if he does these things, it will make people guess that he is competing with the prince for favor and is suspected of competing with the prince for power. After all, in society at this time, there was no precedent for a prince other than the crown prince to participate in court affairs.

Now that Wang Ke is coming, he keeps mentioning to him the words of doing things for the court and contributing to the Tang Dynasty, plus he knows that Wang Ke wants the emperor to also mention this suggestion, and it seems that Comrade Li Er has no intention of objecting. Li Ke's heart did set off a trace of fluctuation.

Li Ke couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter, there is so much energy?" ”

Wang Ke gently spit out two words from his mouth: "Gunpowder!" ”

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, then understood what Wang Ke meant, and asked, "You mean you want me to take care of the manufacture of gunpowder?" ”

Wang Ke nodded and said, "That's what it means, but making gunpowder is only part of it, and I also want you to supervise the production of bombs!" ”

Li Ke asked puzzledly, "What is a bomb?" ”

Wang Ke knew that people still knew these things, so he explained: "You also know that this gunpowder is very powerful, but what is the use of just producing gunpowder?" To use it militarily, you have to use its explosive power to destroy the enemy. ”

As soon as he said this, Li Ke interrupted him and said: "I understand, put this gunpowder into something like a blasting rod, and throw it at the enemy during the battle to kill the enemy." That's what you call a bomb. ”

Wang Ke smiled, and secretly sighed in his heart that he really didn't see the wrong person. This prince, who is lazy and lazy on weekdays and doesn't seem to have any real skills, is actually a smart and talented person.

He said: "That's it, I will tell you the specific production method after you take care of it, but you must promise not to tell anyone about making this kind of bomb until you are appointed by the emperor." ”

Li Ke was stunned, he didn't understand why Wang Ke didn't let him say this, and asked, "Why can't you say it?" ”

Wang Ke sighed and said: "Let's be honest, as long as I say this, anyone can take care of it." But in order for you to do this, and to do it beautifully, I have to pretend that I don't know anything, that I don't know anything. ”

Only then did Li Ke understand that Wang Ke was actually planning for himself, and said gratefully in his heart: "Brother Wang is good for me, Ke is very grateful!" It's just that this matter has a lot to do with the Tang Dynasty's army, and the stakes are very high. Please also ask Brother Wang not to think of Ke alone. ”

Wang Ke shook his head and said, "This thing is too powerful, and whoever manages it is a miracle." I really don't want to give this credit to others for no reason, and if what I say today can't be done as I want, I will never give it. Even if His Royal Highness wants to talk to the emperor, Ke will not admit it. ”

Li Ke saw Wang Ke's resolute attitude, and he also knew that Wang Ke would never change his decision. This can be seen from the previous emperor's marriage, Wang Ke actually dared to resist the decree. So I had no choice but to give up.

Zhengshi said: "Okay! Ke will take this matter up, and hope that Brother Wang will not hide anything when he arrives. ”

Wang Ke saw that Li Ke agreed, so he said happily: "You can rest assured about this, to you, when did I hide my personal interests!" Later you'll understand how powerful this thing is. ”

Li Ke saw Wang Ke's confident appearance, although he didn't know how powerful this thing was, but he believed that Wang Ke would not lie to himself, and laughed with Wang Ke.

In fact, Li Ke didn't know that Wang Ke was thinking more than just making bombs. This was only the first step in Wang Ke's plan to use gunpowder.

He plans to follow up on the trial production of artillery after this is done. Even Wang Ke still fantasizes that once steel can be produced, he still wants to produce all guns.

Once this plan can be realized, Datang will be invincible in the world in this era, and history will move towards a trajectory that no one can predict because of his appearance.

Wang Ke sat there, immersed in his own thoughts, and he didn't even hear Li Ke call him.

Li Ke saw that he shouted several times, but Wang Ke didn't react, and couldn't help but push Wang Ke with his hand, and Wang Ke came to his senses.

"What's wrong?" he asked. ”

Li Ke asked, "What is Brother Wang thinking?" So attentive, you didn't hear it several times. ”

Wang Ke said lightly: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about how to operate this thing so that we can do it according to our ideas." ”

He didn't want to tell Li Ke everything he thought in his heart now, he was afraid that if he said it, he would frighten Li Ke, so he had to cover it up.

Li Ke didn't know that Wang Ke had a trick with him, and seeing that Wang Ke didn't mean to continue, he didn't ask anymore, and only talked to Wang Ke about some things in the palace. In particular, he talked a lot about the temperament and hobbies of the two princesses of Nanping and Lanling.

Wang Ke also learned some about the temper and personality of these two princesses in advance, so that Wang Ke could get along with the two princesses better after the two princesses entered the door in the future.

In the days to come, Wang Ke also felt that his trip to Li Ke's house today was really worth it.
