Chapter 492: Chain Mail
He Chouyuan was not as eager to please Yang Guang as Wang Shichong, seeing that Wang Shichong was carrying the brocade robe in his hand, and wanted to serve Yang Guang in person to try it on, but Yang Guang sat still and ignored him, so he smiled and explained for Wang Shichong: "Brother Wang doesn't have to be like this, this brocade robe is tailor-made for the prince, how can it not fit?" The prince just asked about the clothes and armor worn by the soldiers, although it is not the field that the lower officials are good at, but the lower officials have also heard people talk about a kind of armor, if the prince can get a piece of such armor and hand it over to the lower officials, within ten months, the lower officials will be able to imitate the clothes and armor exactly like them, and my Great Sui soldiers will no longer be afraid of the strong bows and crossbows of the Turks.

"There is such tough armor in this world, I wonder where there will be this kind of armor, how can I get it?" Compared with listening to Wang Shichong's anecdotes about the Buddhist temple, Yang Guang was obviously more interested in the magical armor that He Chou said was enough to resist the attack of the Turkic iron horseman's bow and arrow.
"This armor originally came from the Western Regions, called chain mail, and was made of fine iron wires intertwined and hooked, enough to withstand the fire of a strong bow and crossbow within a hundred paces. It's just that chain mail has been lost for a long time even in the Western Regions, and if the prince wants to get a piece of chain mail, I'm afraid it's not easy. He Chou replied regretfully.
Chain chain armor? Yang Guang remembered in a trance that he had not heard the name of this kind of armor in the book review once before the crossing, but he didn't expect it to be such a rare thing in the Sui period.
"This matter is wrapped up in this king, He Mansion Eunuch only needs to promise this king, if you give you a sample, can you guarantee to imitate the same as the sample, the same tough clothes and armor for my Great Sui soldiers to wear?" What is it difficult to find a piece of chain mail, Yang Guang held such an idea and asked He Choudao.
"As long as the prince finds a piece of chain mail, the lower officials will not eat or sleep during the ten months, and they will definitely be able to imitate the same tough armor and present it to the prince." He Chou replied very simply.
"Then we'll settle our minds today." Yang Guang turned his head to look at Wang Shichong, and asked bluntly, "The two of them had a friendship of helping each other in this king back then, and when they came to this king's mansion today, in addition to meeting and catching up with this king, what are the difficulties that need to be solved by this king?" ”
He Chou stared at Wang Shichong sensitively, and said: "The prince must also know that the lower officials once came to the palace flower garden to ask the palace gardener Jiang Tuozi for gardening methods, but unfortunately not long after, Jiang Tuozi went north with the prince and went out of the town and the state. If he returned to Chang'an with the prince this time, the lower official wanted to ask the prince for permission to ask Jiang Tuozi to stay in the lower official's mansion for a while, so that he could ask him for gardening sooner or later. ”
After He Chou mentioned it, Yang Guang suddenly recalled that when he entered and exited Daxing Palace in the past two days, although he saw that the newly built palace was magnificent and magnificent, but there seemed to be some green trees and red flowers in the palace, which seemed a little dull, so he guessed that He Chou was mostly responsible for the greening and beautification of the palace after the completion of the construction of the follow-up work, so he thought of asking Jiang Tuozi for the method of gardening and planting in person.
"To disappoint the eunuch of He Fu, Jiang Tuozi was forcibly taken captive by the Turks a year ago, and this king still does not know his life, death and whereabouts." Yang Guang sighed lightly, and then moved his gaze to Wang Shichong.
"The lower officials have nothing else to bother and ask the prince to make the decision for the lower officials, just ask the prince to return to the state with the lower officials on the day he leaves Beijing, and the lower officials are willing to serve the prince on an errand and die for the prince." Wang Shichong said earnestly.
Because of the little historical knowledge in his mind, the mobile phone that crossed back with him had long been out of battery and could not be connected to the Internet, although Yang Guang knew how many years later Wang Shichong would eventually embark on the road of rebellion, but he didn't know anything about any of his previous experiences, at this time, listening to his face-to-face request to follow him to Bingzhou, he couldn't help laughing, thinking: You don't want to die for me, but point to me for promotion and promotion.
Thinking like this, he refused to agree to Wang Shichong's request, accepted him as an errand under his command, groaned slightly, and said to Wang Shichong: "Since you are now serving in the military department, it is better to do this, this king recommends you to leave Beijing to unify the army, go to the front of the two armies in person, and make a name for yourself with a knife and a gun, what do you think?" ”
Wang Shichong didn't know that Yang Guang was holding back the bad water in his stomach, and wanted to pry him to lead the army to the enemy, to see if he had the life to live to the end of the Sui Dynasty, and mistakenly thought that Yang Guang was really thinking about his future, so he asked him to go out to lead the army, so he was so happy that he bowed to Yang Guang again and again and said: "Thank you for the prince's support, the lower official, no, the last general will live up to the prince's expectations, and establish the next merit with real swords and guns, in order to repay the prince's great kindness." ”
After sending away He and Wang, Yang Guang returned to the palace, and immediately ordered someone to pass on the mansion Peng Yuzan to come, and instructed him to lead the well-informed little people in the mansion to go to the east and west cities of Chang'an Xindu to buy chain mail at a high price.
Yu Zan has not yet reported to him all kinds of affairs in the palace over the years, and he is about to take this opportunity to make a report to him, but he saw that Yang Guang arranged for him to buy chain mail, and then got up and asked Xiao Xiao to guide him and find Xiao E's mother and son. Yu Zan had to shake his head knowingly, and first went to the messenger under Yang Guang's orders.
Xiao E's mother and son live in the wing room on the east side of the main hall of the house, Yang Guang under the guidance of Xiao Xiao, stepped into the east wing, walked through the hall to the bedroom on the inside, raised his eyes and saw his son Yang Zhao, who was less than one year old, was lying on the bed in the bedroom and sleeping soundly, Princess Xiao E sat on the edge of the bed, personally waved a fan for her son to drive away mosquitoes, couldn't help but lighten her steps, tiptoed to the bed, leaned over to kiss her son's pink face, and immediately took advantage of the situation to hold Xiao E in her arms.
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao, Chi Shao, and Lu Pothos, who were accompanying the attendants, retreated out of the room with interest.
Xiao E gently broke free of Yang Guang, casually pulled the thin quilt that slipped off his son's body, covered his stomach for him, and said softly to Yang Guang: "It was all the night before, this child slept upside down, didn't sleep at night, didn't wake up during the day." ”
"Isn't there no more noise these two nights? After a few days, I will take time to try to rectify these scoundrels. Yang Guang sat down next to Xiao E, stretched out his hand to stroke his son's exposed little feet, and replied casually.
"Lord, I haven't had time to ask you, did the eldest sister stay in your Hongsheng Palace that night, did she mention to you the former Empress Sima of the monkhood?"
"Why, you know about it?" Yang Guang was a little surprised that Xiao E suddenly asked him about this, raised his eyelids and glanced at her, and asked casually.
"As soon as I returned to Chang'an, I was invited by the queen mother to live with her in Zhengyang Palace, how could I not know about this? I advise the prince today, no matter what the eldest sister asks you to do, don't ask, especially intervene in this matter, so as not to disturb the queen mother's mind. Xiao Er reminded Yang Guangdao seriously.
