Chapter 200: The Royal Driver Arrives
An He then smashed it a few more times, and finally shook his arms unconsciously, so he stopped, although there were traces of being smashed on the cement slab, but for the cement slab that was half a foot thick, it was nothing at all. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hehe, good quality!"
An He nodded with satisfaction, the quality of this cement board is almost not much different from the board made of general cement in later generations, of course, this is mainly because the craftsmen polish the materials very finely, from calcination to hardening are very attentive, if it is to be mass-produced in the future, without the help of later generations of machinery, it is estimated that the quality will decline some, but it is enough to meet the needs of Datang at this stage.
"It's all because of the great man's command that he can make something like cement!"
Bai Qing would not let go of any opportunity to pat An He's ass, seeing that An He was so happy, he immediately came up to flatter. "Hahaha~, I'm just moving my mouth, if you don't have the help of Bai Qing and all the craftsmen, where can I make cement? You are all waiting here, I will go and ask the emperor to come up and have a look, and by the way, I will help you ask for credit! ”
An He smiled and patted Bai Qing's shoulder and praised.
Bai Qinghe and the craftsmen behind him listened to An He's words, and their happy faces were about to burst into laughter, Bai Qing wanted to be modest, but An He had already turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said to Bai Qing:
"Don't forget to invite Brother Yuwen here, he also has a share of the credit here."
Bai Qing was shocked in his heart, and immediately agreed, after watching An He leave, he immediately trotted to invite Yuwen Hu, and at the same time he was glad in his heart, if it wasn't for An He's reminder, he really forgot to invite Yuwen Hu, Yuwen Hu is Bai Qing's top boss, and these people are also selected by Yuwen Hu, so of course he is indispensable in terms of credit.
An He rushed to the Taiji Hall as fast as he could, and now it was just dawn, and it was the time when Li Xiaojiu went to the court, and he arrived at the Taiji Palace. An He wanted to break in directly, but was stopped by the Qianniu guard guarding the door, and the leading Zhonglang will be a lean and thin middle-aged man, no matter what An He said. is black-faced and not allowed to enter, An He has no choice but to let people go in first to report, and wait for Li Xiaojiu to summon him outside.
It is estimated that something important is being discussed inside, and the person who reported it has not been seen. Ann and the boredom of waiting outside. And that Qianniu Weilang stared at it for a long time. An He suddenly found that the other party was a little interesting, and he was not afraid of facing his own prince, and looked at his face, so he asked, "I don't know what to call the general?" ”
"Qi An Zhonglang General, the last general is Qianniu Weilang General Pei Xingjian, if An Zhonglang is dissatisfied, you can go to the general to sue a certain complaint!"
Pei Xingjian said stiffly, he thought that An He was resentful of him for blocking him from entering the hall, and wanted to ask his name so that he could retaliate in the future. That's why I answered that.
"Hehe, the general misunderstood......"
An He saw that the other party had misunderstood his meaning, and opened his mouth to explain with a smile, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and the three words "Pei Xingjian" crossed through his mind like a comet, which reminded him of a famous figure in the early Tang Dynasty, An He was excited, stepped forward and grabbed the other party's hands and asked:
"Pei Xingjian?"
Su Dingfang was also stunned and said: "General Qi An Zhonglang is the last general." ”
"Oops~, disrespectful and disrespectful. I didn't expect to meet Brother Pei here, I don't know where Brother Pei's family lives, the younger brother will definitely visit him another day? ”
An He had an expression of digging up a treasure, and he was very affectionate with Pei Xingjian.
This Pei Xingjian is not simple. Don't look at it now, it's just a small general, one level lower than Anhe, and later, in the battles of conquering Tibet and leveling Tuji, it played a great role, and the pearl of Su Dingfang finally washed off the dust. began to shine, Su Dingfang was already in his sixties at that time, and he could still make such an immortal achievement in the year of the sixtieth year, which can be said to be a typical representative of the late bloomer. Of course, there was another cow man with a very similar experience to him during the same period, who also began to make his fortune after the age of sixty, but that person was born as a civil official, and it is estimated that he is still doing a small history.
"Uh~, Anzhongro will ......"
Pei Xingjian was uncomfortable by An He's enthusiasm, he didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth, and at the same time he felt a little guilty in his heart, people were not the kind of caution he thought at all, and he didn't pay attention to that little thing just now, and now he even had to visit in person, which made Pei Xingjian feel a little inexplicably moved.
"General An Zhonglang, Your Majesty summons, please General An Zhonglang enter the hall!"
At this moment, the little yellow door that had just gone in to report came out of the hall, saluted An He and said, just to relieve Su Dingfang.
"What a coincidence!"
An He muttered in a low voice, he still wanted to take this opportunity to have a relationship with Pei Xingjian, but now was not a good time, so he could only turn his head and say to Pei Xingjian:
"Brother Pei, Anhe still has important things to do today, since I already know that you are serving in Qianniuwei, I will definitely come to drink and have fun with you in the future!"
"General An Zhonglang is polite, the last general will definitely wait for General An Zhonglang, and now it's still important to get down to business."
Pei Xingjian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, he and An He only met for the first time, but he didn't expect An He to be so enthusiastic, which made him confused for a while, and he was looking forward to An He leaving soon, and he could also have time to sort it out.
An He hugged his fist to Pei Xingjian, and then turned around and entered the main hall. The Chinese and martial arts ministers of the palace were all there, the civil officials were headed by Changsun Wuji and Zhang Xing, and the military generals were headed by Li Shiji.
"Chen Anhe, see the emperor!"
Under the puzzled gaze of the civil and military ministers, An He walked forward quickly.
"Hehe, I look at the red light on your face, I guess the cement has been made, right?"
Li Xiaojiu has also been paying attention to the cement matter, just now I heard An He ask to see, he calculated the day, it happened to be about the same time as An He's estimate, and immediately guessed his intention.
"The emperor is wise, now that the cement slab has been made, just now the minister smashed a few with a sledgehammer, and the numbness of Zhen's arms only left a few shallow marks.
"Good! It just so happens that the ministers are here, so let's go and take a look with me! ”
Li Xiaojiu has been waiting for several days, and now when he heard that the cement had been successfully tested, he couldn't sit still at the moment, and he wanted to go and see it immediately when he stood up.
"Your Majesty, the government affairs above the court are important, and now we are discussing the matter of building a road in Jiannan, how can I be interrupted by some irrelevant things on the way?"
At this moment, the old stubborn Chu Suiliang stood up and dissuaded him, he was not present when Anhe presented cement last time, and Anhe's cement was not publicized, so Chu Suiliang didn't know what cement was for.
When An He heard this, he secretly screamed in his heart, what a coincidence, he didn't expect that the court was also discussing the road construction today, and he was really lucky.
Li Xiaojiu smiled and said:
"Chu Qing misunderstood, cement is not an irrelevant thing, this thing is very useful, you will know it when you see it."
After speaking, he ignored Chu Suiliang, followed An He and hurried to the general as a prisoner, Chu Suiliang had no choice but to follow behind with the civil and military officials.
The group rushed to the cement workshop in a mess, and made Bai Qing, a petty official of the ninth grade, look straight in the eyes, most of the people were wearing scarlet robes, and there were even many people wearing purple robes. (To be continued.) )
