Chapter 617: Bounce Cotton
East Palace.
Li Yu was still chatting with his mother, Empress Cui, in the palace.
And at this time, the people of the Zongren Mansion pulled a cart of cotton and sent it to the East Palace.
Cui Tong looked at the cart of fluffy things, and his whole face didn't know where the pain was.
"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want these things to do, it's really useless, they still take up space."
Cui Tong looked at the people in the Zongren Mansion and complained, and the people in the Zongren Mansion smiled bitterly, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants, we will just send it, and I don't ask much about the rest." ”
After speaking, the people from the Zongren Mansion didn't talk much to Cui Tong and turned to leave.
Cui Tong looked at the pile of cotton and shook his head, "Pull it back, pull it back......"
The cold wind was howling, and when Li Yu came out of the palace, he was still taking Li Xiang with him.
At this time, Li Xiang was a little excited, and she refused to settle down at all while sitting in the carriage.
Perhaps, this is what she should be like at her age.
Li Yu looked at his sister, but for the first time, he gave birth to some family affection.
With Li Yuan, with Queen Cui, it's very strange, although he is respectful on the surface, but that kind of family affection makes him a little bit apart, maybe whether it is Li Yuan or Queen Cui, they have some control over their own shelves, even in front of their own sons, they rarely say that they talk purely to father and son, or mother and son.
But it's different with Li Xiang, the two can talk freely and don't have to worry about anything.
"Brother Prince, is your East Palace fun?"
Li Yu thought for a while, "It's not very fun, the things I used to play have been ruined, but now it's a lot more dull." ”
In the past, Li Yu played everything, and there were a lot of interesting things in the East Palace, but today's Li Yu is no longer the former Li Yu, and those things are naturally gone.
Hearing this, Li Xiang was a little lost.
"However, whatever you want to eat, the chefs of the East Palace can make it for you."
"Really, all kinds of stir-fries, all kinds of food?"
"Of course!"
Li Xiang suddenly threw herself into Li Yu's arms excitedly, and Li Yu smiled bitterly.
Back in the East Palace, Li Xiang hurriedly ran in, but as soon as he ran in, he suddenly bumped into Cui Tong.
Cui Tong saw that it was Li Xiang, and immediately slapped himself, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the old slave is clumsy, I didn't recognize you." ”
Li Xiang didn't care, just glanced at Cui Tong and said, "Who bullied Mr. Cui?" ”
"I didn't ...... No, I don't. ”
"Then what are you doing with a bitter gourd face?"
Cui Tong said, "The people from the Zongren Mansion have sent a cart of cotton, and the old slave really doesn't know what to do with this thing." ”
As he was talking, Li Yu came from behind, "I didn't let you deal with it, let me put it." ”
Cui Tong pouted, Li Xiang smiled bitterly, today she wanted to know what her prince brother wanted to do with those cottons, but she didn't expect Cui Tong to want to know too.
However, Li Xiang didn't ask much, because he knew that as long as he waited, he would know soon.
Li Yu returned to the East Palace and asked Cui Tong to find two craftsmen, and then he took out a drawing and asked the craftsman to make it according to the things on the drawing.
It's a cotton-bounce device.
The craftsman was very coincidental, and he finished the cotton in half a day, and here, Li Yu instructed Cui Tong to find someone to deseed the cotton.
There is not much cotton, only a cart, but the speed of deseeding is not very fast, and it took a day to finally take out the cart of cottonseed.
After the cotton is deseeded, the next step is to play the cotton.
If you don't play cotton, it's still very hard, and it's not very comfortable to touch, but if you play it, it's particularly soft.
After Li Yu flicked a cart of cotton, the cotton became white and soft, even if he didn't know what to do with it, but touching it with his hands made people feel very comfortable.
After Li Xiang saw this miraculous change, she couldn't believe it.
"Brother Prince, you are so powerful, why did the cotton become like this with one flick?"
Li Yu didn't know the principle, it was like this anyway, so he didn't explain much, but directly found two tailors.
"Sew this cotton into your clothes."
The tailor took the order to retreat, and after half a day, he made a few clothes and came out.
The style of the clothes is very beautiful, it is a girl's clothes, Li Yu looked at it, and then took one and gave it to Li Xiang.
"Put it on and try it on."
Li Xiang was a little curious, so she took it and put it on, and after putting it on like this, she felt warm all over her body.
"Big brother, these clothes are so warm."
Li Yu nodded, "Cotton clothes, it must be warm, there are a few more here, one for my father and one for my mother, those cotton seeds, keep them for planting next year, so that soon, the people of our Tang Kingdom will be able to wear cotton clothes in winter." ”
In ancient times, the reason why there were frozen bones on the road in winter was that in addition to poverty, there were too few things to keep out the cold, and even if there were, it was not very warm.
It's okay to have the fur of beasts, but it's too expensive, and the people can afford it?
But if the people can grow cotton, then everyone should be able to make a dress or two, right?
After Li Xiang put on the cotton clothes, she took Yu Chi Baolin out of the city to play, didn't she go out of the palace just to play, although Yu Chi Baolin said that she followed Li Yu to do adult things, but her age was not very big, she was still very playful, Li Xiang pulled him to play, and he was also happy.
Li Yu, on the other hand, went directly to the bedroom.
The bedroom was very warm, and when he came in, Su Rong was reading a book, she used to fight and kill in Qizhou, but now that she has become the crown princess, she has to be restrained.
Seeing Tang Yu coming, she was a little strange.
"Why are you here?"
Li Yu reached out and took out a cotton coat and said, "It's for you." ”
The cotton clothes are very beautiful and soft to the touch, Su Rong knew that Li Mu was playing cotton, and she also knew that he asked the tailor to make clothes, but she didn't expect Li Yu to let the tailor make a dress for herself.
The clothes were colorful, but Su Rong didn't like it much, so she threw it aside after taking it, and had no intention of trying it on.
Li Yu stood next to him and said, "Why don't you try?" ”
Su Rong pouted, "You're here, how can I try?" ”
"Do husbands and wives still avoid suspicion?"
"You have to take care of it!"
The two were about to quarrel when they talked, but Li Yu found that even if it was a woman who had killed enemies on the battlefield before, when she really fought with her, it was still a man who suffered.
So soon, Li Yu surrendered and withdrew.
As soon as Li Yu left, Su Rong couldn't help but put on the cotton clothes, and after putting them on, they were really much more comfortable than wearing other clothes, the key was softness.
couldn't help but show a slight smile on the corner of Su Rong's mouth, and her heart suddenly felt warm.
"If you have done such a good thing, you can still think of me, you have a conscience."
As she spoke, Su Rong suddenly felt that her cheeks were slightly red and she was a little embarrassed, but she was the only one in the room.
