Hope, hope.

The renovation of the palace is finally almost complete.

Why isn't it all done?

Because there are still some things, such as maintenance, such as small-scale renovation, which still have to be continued, and as long as there are still people living in the palace, small-scale repairs are inevitable.

Li Shimin was in high spirits, standing on a high building and looking in all directions.

In the sun, the entire city wall is resplendent in gold.

Li Chengqian, Li Ke and others followed behind, looking at the high-spirited father, they were also very happy.

Li Tai is so poor that he can't afford to eat this time, right?

Suddenly, Li Shimin pointed to the golden tiled city walls around him and said, "See? That's my country! ”

"Congratulations to my father!"

"Congratulations to my father!"

"Congratulations to my father!"

“……”

The princes spoke one after another.

Li Tai rolled his eyes, that's my country!

The walls of these imperial cities alone cost me most of my financial resources!

That's my country!

"Dad, the ministers are here, it's time to start." Li Tai couldn't help but interrupt Li Shimin and said, "Everyone has been waiting for a long time. ”

"Well, let's go down." Li Shimin turned around and walked down.

At this moment, in the middle of the palace, there were already people waiting.

The ministers are complete.

Seeing Li Shimin's arrival, he hurriedly saluted, shouting in his mouth: "See Your Majesty!" ”

"No need to be polite." Li Shimin said with a smile, and then strode forward.

Came to the midst of the courtiers with a big smile on his face.

In front, there was a huge copper platform.

It was really made of copper, cylindrical in shape, and six meters in diameter.

The height is estimated to be about twenty or thirty centimeters.

On this bronze surface is also a world map.

Of course, Datang was set up in the middle position.

Then, two golden lines cross from the center of the world map.

One of them is the prime meridian.

It also has the words 'Center of the Universe' written in Chinese characters.

Beside them, the four behemoths were covered in red brocade, and it was impossible to see what they were.

"Today is a good day, today is a day that will be recorded in history, even if thousands of years later, when people mention the center of the world and the prime meridian of Zhenguan, they will think of today." Li Shimin said loudly: "Today is a historic moment, and today is a ......."

Li Shimin gushed endlessly, the more he talked, the more energetic he became, and the more he spoke, the more energetic he became.

Finally, after half an hour, he finally finished speaking.

Then, he looked at Yuan Tiangang and asked, "Has the time come?" ”

"That's right, the hour is just right now." Yuan Tiangang said very happily.

"Let's go!" Li Shimin said loudly.

The four Taoist boys hurriedly removed the red cloth from a copper platform next to the track.

Then, four behemoths appeared in everyone's sight.

Four gigantic bronze statues!

A two-meter-tall dragon, a two-meter-tall tiger, a two-meter-tall phoenix, and the shape of a turtle with a tail is indeed a snake's Xuanwu.

Isn't this the legendary Four Divine Beasts that guard the Quartet?

"Wan Jin, Wan Jin, it seems that this group of Daomen really took out 10,000 catties of copper to build these things, it seems that these guys are really quite concerned about this matter." Li Tai couldn't help but say secretly.

These Datang chemists are really rich!

With the advent of the prime meridian, this time the Europeans could no longer proudly say that they were the first to discover that the earth was round, the first to divide the earth into 24 regions, and they could no longer say that the center of the world was on their side.

Thinking about it, Li Tai is still quite happy.

At this time.

The ground of Chang'an City has been hardened with cement, and four major roads go in all directions from the city gate of Chang'an City.

One side of the road was also paved with cement.

Wait for the cement on one side to be paved, and then shop on the other side.

Other cities in Datang are also stepping up construction.

Not far from the palace, a figure stood in a clearing, his face frenzied.

"Hahaha...... Yes, yes, it's here, it's here, Daming Palace is built here! In the middle of this, I want to build the tallest palace in the world, and I want the world to know that I, Yan Zhenqing, am a real architectural genius! Yan Zhenqing's whole face showed an extremely fanatical look.

"Construction starts tomorrow, construction starts tomorrow, I can't wait to see my masterpiece!" Yan Zhenqing said loudly.

"As long as you stand in the palace I built, you can see the entire Chang'an City!" Yan Zhenqing said.

In ancient times, the specifications of the building were set, and the houses of ordinary people could not be higher than the nobles, and the nobles could not be taller than the royal family.

However, if it was a palace where the emperor lived, there were not so many restrictions.

Next.

Yan Zhenqing took a group of people to the construction site of Daming Palace and began the construction of Daming Palace.

Theoretically, to build a house, you must first make the ground solid, and then build on it.

This time, however, the foundation was dug first, filled with concrete reinforcement, and then cast, in a similar way to what was later done.

Yan Lide naturally had to pretend to be public and send a large group of people to help.

You must know that Yan Lide's senior brother is the famous designer Yu Wenkai.

Yu Wenkai's greatest achievement is to preside over the construction of Daxing City, which is now Chang'an City.

Now that Yan Zhenqing personally designed and built the Daming Palace, Yan Lide naturally wanted to vigorously support his son's career, so he not only sent those craftsmen from the family, but also invited hundreds of workers from Yuwen's family.

The whole venue suddenly became very lively.

With Yan Lide's help, I think this Daming Palace should be able to be built soon.

……

Outside the city of Chang'an.

One or two carriages slowly came towards Chang'an City.

On the left and right sides of the carriage, there were dozens of people on horseback.

Some people were bald, some were wearing Confucian clothes, and some were wearing the warrior suits of the Tang Dynasty, which should have looked well-dressed.

However, these people are short and thin, and they wear the clothes of the Tang Dynasty, which is indeed without the demeanor and temperament of the Tang people, and there is a scene of a monkey and a crown.

This can't be blamed on them, after all, among these people, the tallest is only one meter three, and the shortest one is one meter one, which looks so conspicuous in the crowd, as if it is a group of Lilliputian countries.

Riding on the horse, all of them had excitement on their faces, and they chattered non-stop along the way, and the officials escorting them were a little bored.

If it weren't for the fact that these people were gentle, the officials who escorted them would have wanted to throw them into the water and soak in them, so that they would not talk so much nonsense.

Suddenly, ahead.

A group of people who were working on the construction caught the attention of these people, and these people couldn't help but scream.

"What are they doing?"

"Are these people the slaves of the Tang Dynasty?"

"What are they here?"
