Chapter 384: Inspecting the Fang Family's Thatched Cottage

"Holy Lord, I'll go find Mr." Qian Shi saw that there was no one in Fang Jing's house, but he couldn't leave Li Shimin and them here, someone had to receive them, and then ran to the field.

"Father, mother, please come with me." After Qingque opened the door, he invited Li Shimin and his wife into the hall to rest.

Subsequently, Qingque scooped out some fruit from the miscellaneous house and handed it to Li Shimin and his wife to drink, of course, Cheng Siping and Li Shan did not have it.

"Well, it's still the same taste, I haven't drunk it in years." The queen held a bamboo bowl and drank fruit brew, thinking back to the days when she lived in Fangjia Village a few years ago.

"Guanyin is right, I haven't drunk this taste for several years, and I've always missed it." The same is true for Li Shimin.

A quarter of an hour later, Fang Jing took Xiao Linghua's hand and returned home, followed by Qian Shi, who was still holding two linen pockets in his hands, which contained a lot of big frogs, as for Wukong's, he would not hand it over to Qian Shi.

"Holy Empress is well, why do you have time to come to Fangjia Village?" Fang Jing took Xiao Linghua and saluted Li Shimin and his wife.

"Sir, it's okay, we also have nothing to do to come and take a look, we haven't been to Fangjia Village for several years, and it just so happens that there isn't much to do now, so come and see Qingque Liqi by the way." Li Shimin and his wife hurriedly stood up, bowed to Fang Jing and spoke.

"Holy Lord, Queen, don't worry, the green finch is very good, and they won't lose a hair." Fang Jing led Xiao Linghua into the hall, pulled a chair over, and after sitting down, she said casually, which made Qingque standing behind Li Shimin and his wife a little frightened.

Listening to Qingque's ears, it felt like warning Qingque, which made Qingque's unnatural face twitch, as long as Fang Jingyi said something, Qingque would think about his affairs unnaturally, whether he had committed anything, whether he was wrong, as long as it was wrong, Qingque would naturally be criticized.

"It's not that my husband and wife are not worried about Qingque and them, it's just that they have been away from Chang'an for several years, although they have also gone back, but this is just the right time to come and have a look." The queen casually opened her mouth to explain, although Fang Jing's words were just ordinary narratives, but they always felt awkward in people's ears.

"Sir, whose family is this little girl?" The queen looked at Xiao Linghua in Fang Jing's arms, and was a little curious, could this be Fang Jing's daughter? But I haven't heard of Fang Jing getting married.

"Queen, this is my sister, Xiao Linghua, call people, call uncles and aunts." Fang Jing introduced Xiao Linghua.

"Hello uncle and aunt." Xiao Ling was not stage frightened, and directly greeted Li Shimin and his wife loudly.

"That's good." Li Shimin was a little embarrassed, this title always felt a little messy, but there was no way, everyone should talk about their own.

"Sir, just now we went to the laboratory of the green finch, I don't know what the gun they built is saying?" Although Li Shimin was embarrassed just now, he still talked about the rifle.

"Saint, there is nothing to say about this, the gun is a product of Qingque's laboratory, it is naturally up to him to decide, as for what happens in the future, it is up to Qingque to decide, I am just the one who provides tools and knowledge." After Fang Jing heard Li Shimin's words, she thought that Li Shimin had seen the power of the rifle.

"Then may I ask sir, how much of a role can this rifle play in the battle?" Li Shimin looked back at Qingque, then stared at Fang Jing and asked.

"Saint, rifles can replace archers, and they can also replace melee combat, of course, if these are used in war, although the lethality is great, but the speed is still limited, when the confrontation, there are too many enemies, then there is no way, you can only rely on artillery to strike." Fang Jing casually talked about the war, although there are very few wars at the moment, there are still some hostile enemies.

"Artillery? What is artillery? Li Shimin was strange, just now they only saw the rifle, but the artillery did not see.

"Father, the artillery is in the laboratory, and it has not been taken out for experimentation, and the artillery is too bulky and inconvenient to transport, and it is still being improved." Qingque hurriedly explained.

"Oh? And what about this artillery? How to crack down? Li Shimin's interest was opened, at least after seeing the rifle, his heart began to be interested in this artillery.

"Father, this artillery is a sharp weapon for long-range strikes, the current range is about ten miles, the lethality is amazing, it can attack the city, if we use the artillery we build, bombard Chang'an City, only five shells are needed to blast the walls of Chang'an City." Qingque continued to explain to Li Shimin, although Qingque said that five shells could blow up Chang'an City, this is still a small statement, in Fang Jing's estimate, it is possible to blast open the Chang'an city wall with three shots.

The city wall of Chang'an City is not all built with stone bricks, and the following is basically a rammed earth structure.

"Qingque, you are dizzy, how can there be such a powerful weapon in this world?" Li Shimin didn't believe it, and of course the queen didn't believe it either, at least until he saw it, these were not credible.

"Holy Lord, Queen, don't talk about this artillery beforehand, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I will let you see it then, and there are other things, Qingque, you can also go and prepare, so that the Holy Empress and the Queen can have a long time." Fang Jing hurriedly stopped Qingque from explaining, saving this matter from talking endlessly, and besides, he had to arrange accommodation for the two of them.

"Well, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Mr. will let me and my wife take a look." After Li Shimin heard this, he didn't say anything more, as for what the artillery is, he will always know the day after tomorrow.

The group was talking in the hall, and not long after, they came back from the bamboo forest, and after seeing Li Shimin and his wife, they screamed again and again.

"Lizhen, you are a county lord, you have to learn etiquette, if you continue like this, who will dare to marry you." The queen hugged Lizhi, although her mouth was blaming, but her eyes were full of care.

"Mother, here in Fangjia Village, there is no need to talk about etiquette, everyone is like this, who is this etiquette for." No matter what etiquette is not etiquette, she is very happy to see her father and mother, even if there is still some dirt on her body, she doesn't care about it.

Dexian and Meng Jiang are even more screaming, although they are still young, they have been a little far away from Chang'an in recent years, and they can't often return to Chang'an, but in the past few years, they have enjoyed the happiness that other sisters have not enjoyed in Fangjia Village.

"Holy Lord, Queen, do you want to go to Caochang's side to have a look?" Fang Jing looked at the family, what should have been said, and the joy should have passed, so he suggested to Li Shimin and his wife to go to the cottage to have a look.

"Okay, let's go to the cottage and have a look." Li Shimin and his wife nodded in agreement, and the Fang family's thatched cottage was also a place they had to see, and besides, on the way here, they discussed going to the thatched cottage to see if this thatched cottage was as good as Qian Shi's letter said.

Of course, Li Shimin has another thing that needs to go to the cottage, that is, his queen, he needs to find Sun Simiao, who has a good look, since giving birth to a daughter, the queen's health is getting worse and worse, so she has to come to Fangjia Village.

At this time, Chen Erlin and his wife, who were still in Dachu and Zhang Meili, returned home, and happened to meet Li Shimin and his wife.

"Grass people, folk girls, meet the saint, queen." Chen Erlin and his wife took Da Chu and Zhang Meili and hurriedly made a big salute to Li Shimin and his wife, and stood aside, at a loss.

"Brother Erlin, Sister Xia, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" As if she were a friend, the queen approached and helped her up, and said something.

"The people's daughter's family is quite good, Queen Xie is worried." Zhang Xiaoxia lowered her head and didn't dare to raise it, and said softly to the queen.

Zhang Meimei, who was standing on the side, was even more at a loss, when she came back just now, she also looked at these strangers, the clothes she was wearing were some gorgeous clothes, although her eyes were envious, but she didn't pay too much attention, but when Chen Erlin and Zhang Xiaoxia pulled her to salute this stranger, they knew that this was the current Holy Queen, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.

"Little uncle and aunt, you pack up a room and come out, the Holy Queen and the two will live in our house for the next few days, let's go to the grass hall first to have a look." Fang Jing knew that her little uncles and aunts must be the same as before, they must be nervous and scared, so it was better to leave with Li Shimin and his wife quickly.

Afterwards, Fang Jing took Xiao Linghua and took Li Shimin and his wife to the direction of the Fang's thatched cottage, and a quarter of an hour later, they came to the Fang's thatched cottage.

"Shengshang, the current teaching method of the Fang family's thatched cottage is somewhat similar to that of the school, but there are still some differences, such as the time for recess, the grass hall here will be correspondingly less, at this time the students should be in class, let's take a look around first, don't disturb the gentlemen teaching for the time being." After Fang Jing took Li Shimin and his wife into the cottage, they began to introduce them.

"Okay, it's good not to disturb, but don't disturb the students." Li Shimin has no opinion, and reading naturally needs to look like a book.

"Holy Lord, Queen, the current students in the grass hall, in the future, if they complete their studies, after passing the assessment, they will become qualified doctors, of course, there may be some students who stay to be Mr., the grass hall will definitely gradually expand in the future, the more students are recruited, the more doctors in the world will be, and more people can be treated." Fang Jing took them to a short distance outside the classroom where the students were in class, and began to introduce the current situation in the drafting hall.

"Sir, does Doctor Sun also want to be a gentleman every day and teach students?" Li Shimin happened to see Sun Simiao standing in the classroom giving a lecture to the students, and wondered in his heart, why did a miracle doctor come to teach?

"Shengshang, Mr. Sun is bound to teach, but not too much, mainly based on research, and the classes are relatively less than other gentlemen." Fang Jing responded casually.

"Then how are the students in this cottage doing with their studies now?" The queen listened to Fang Jing's introduction all the way, but for so many students, who have been studying medicine here for more than three years, she also wants to know how these students are progressing.

"Queen, the students' studies are still good, for now, according to their learning progress, it doesn't take ten years to graduate and become a doctor, it is estimated that it will take six to eight years." Fang Jing thought about what Sun Simiao had told him before, and actually hoped that these students would also be able to graduate early, so that they could go to the Tang Dynasty to treat diseases and save people.

"Holy Lord, over there is Mr. Sun's house where they study medicine, and there are some equipment dedicated to the study of pathological medicine, which is exclusively for Mr. Sun and some researchers." Fang Jing said that Li Shimin and his wife knew a little about this medical research, and some official doctors in the cottage would also write to Chang'an to report the situation to Li Shimin.

"Holy Lord, Queen, this is the place where the students stay, and there is the cafeteria of the thatched cottage, where all the students will eat after class, and they will stay in this dormitory to rest at night, and there is a special person to manage it." Walking all the way to the living area, Fang Jing introduced to Li Shimin and his wife.

"Yes, the reasonable arrangement of the thatched hall is really good, no wonder Doctor Sun is willing to stay here for learning." Li Shimin was greatly admired.
