Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Emperor's Curiosity

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, can I light you an extra candle?"

"No, it's already pretty bright."

With a wave of his hand, Li Shimin refused the waiter next to him to light another candle for himself, and then refocused his gaze on the cover of the book on the table.

Clearly, there is no need to spend an extra candle.

Mathematics, vol. 1.

Of course, this was not what he brought to Jiucheng Palace, but he asked casually on the way back from the wounded barracks, and Cheng Zhijie hurriedly sent someone to send it to him.

Rubbing the smooth book cover, Li Shimin's eyes flashed with complexity.

If you only look at the paper and the ink on it, there is no doubt that this set of "Mathematics" is definitely the best book in the Zhenguan period, and there is no one! So when he saw this thing for the first time, Li Shimin didn't know how many words he scolded such as "ruined" and "spoiling good things".

The books written by those saints are only printed on ordinary paper, and it is a waste that such a set of "idle books" of yours has spent so much!

But looking at this book now, Li Shimin doesn't feel this way.

However, when he just wanted to turn the first page to take a look, the emperor couldn't help it after all, and opened the so-called statistical table that Huang Ren and the others presented.

In order for the emperor to understand, they urgently rewrote it in Chinese characters, so the content was simple, but in Li Shimin's opinion, it was enough.

In three months, a total of 47 people were treated...... plus those in Jiucheng Palace this time, it is sixty-four people!

This amount, it should be about the same.

In addition to the most recent one, the sergeants who were treated by the two in Chang'an City were injured for a variety of reasons, some were injured during training, some were purely accidents, and some were self-inflicted, and the wounds were large or small, and the depth was different.

According to past experience, these sixty-four people would have lost at least forty percent!

At least!

But this time, Li Shimin saw 59 people alive, and only 5 people died.

Anyway, no matter how many times he watched it, the emperor still felt that he had read the wrong number, or that it was simply the two medical workers of the Han Wangfu who fabricated this thing to fool himself in order to invite merit.

But reason tells Li Shimin that neither of these is possible!

"So, how the hell did he do it?"

Taking a deep breath, Li Shimin's eyes became a little confused: "Could it be that there are really tiny poisons that we can't see, but are everywhere?" The wound is suppurating, and the high fever of the wounded and sick does not go away, all of which are caused by these small poisons? Otherwise, why is this so? ”

This statement completely violated the emperor's "common sense", and he was at a loss for a while.

After thinking for a while, Li Shimin sighed lightly and refocused his attention on the book in front of him - the boxy Han Wangti is really ugly.

However, for his own eleventh, Li Shimin is now becoming more and more curious.

This kid is usually silent, and it seems that he will always nest in his Han Wang's Mansion in Shengye Fang, neither making friends with the powerful people in Chang'an City, nor playing those messy things, let alone relying on his status as a prince to bully men and women, and run rampant...... Even when he was the emperor of Luzhou back then, he was the same way.

So after a long time, Li Shimin's wariness of his eleventh child became weaker and weaker.

Among his brothers, if you want to say that Li Shimin hates the most, it is naturally the eighth Li Yuanheng, and the reason is his mother Yin Defei. So in the second year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin directly sent Lao Bafa to Jinzhou, the barren land in the northwest...... It's just that with the sixth year of Zhenguan Li Yuanheng, the emperor's hatred gradually faded.

But if you want to say that Li Shimin has the most scruples, it is definitely the eleventh Li Yuanjia, there is no one!

The four brothers of his mother's compatriots died before Li Shimin became emperor, and among the remaining brothers, Li Yuanjia is undoubtedly the one with the highest status - his mother is the daughter of the former Sui Yuwen family, and his uncle is the world-famous Yu Wenhua, Yuwen Zhi and Yu Wenshi!

If this kid had a heart, God knows how many people would secretly take refuge?

However, from the day Li Shimin came to power, until Li Yuanjia stayed in Luzhou for a few years, this old eleven has always been honest, not only does he not go out of the door every day, he never easily interacts with outsiders, and even slowly puts his energy and time on those strange and obscene skills.

The former made Li Shimin very happy, and the latter made him very angry.

You, a dignified prince, actually went to ponder what iron pots, tables and chairs, and even made people make thirteen incense sticks, making a lot of money...... Especially when Li Shimin knew that the thirteen incense of the eleventh man had earned more than 100,000 yuan, the expression on his face was really wonderful.

Spices themselves are expensive, and many people will have a lot of reserves at home, which can be used as currency on a daily basis, so the cost of Li Yuanjia to make thirteen incense is bound to be extremely high. But with more than 100,000 yuan in one go, that kid earned at least 100,000 yuan!

Of course, it doesn't matter.

Although Datang is quite short of money now, it is not as short as the 108,000 yuan, but he sold more than 100,000 yuan for a prince, which really made the emperor's face a little feverish - I don't know that the king of Han made a magical ingredient for stir-frying, and made a lot of it in order to meet everyone's needs......

However, it was precisely because of this incident that Li Shimin let down his last vigilance.

But if a mortal King Han has the slightest ambition, it is impossible for him to carry this bad reputation on his back. Not only is he looked down upon by the traditional nobles, but it is also easy for people to think that he has no ambitions, and those who have a heart will not go to take refuge. So at that time, although Li Shimin was so angry that he almost smashed the inkstone on the table, he didn't let people clean up the kid in the end, but pinched his nose and confessed it.

Further on, there is the amazing zigzag plow.

And it was precisely because of the appearance of Qu Yuanli that Li Shimin was impressed by his eleventh lang, and finally on a whim, he was transferred from Luzhou to Chang'an...... Back then, for this matter, Li Shimin and Wei Zheng and others spent a lot of spitting stars, and finally persuaded several important ministers on the grounds of Quyuan plow.

Otherwise, why would he stay in Chang'an City?

Next, it is the Han Wang paper that made the Li family paper mill fall from the clouds into the quagmire, the Han Wang pen, Han Wang ink and Han Wang inkstone that are the most compatible with Han Wang paper, the glass that made Li Shimin extremely amazing, and the trauma treatment technique that just surprised him very much!

So after seeing that Cheng Zhijie attached so much importance to the Tianzhu number, Li Shimin couldn't help but start to doubt his judgment.

Anyway, on this cool night, Li Shimin sat at the desk invented by King Han, looked through a math book written by King Han, and finally asked the chamberlain to add a candle......
