"Holy Lord, the Ministry of War has wanted to build some equipment recently, but who would have wanted to search all over the capital and couldn't find a working craftsman. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Saint, the minister wants to build a wheel, but he can't find a craftsman."

"Saint, the iron window in the minister's mansion is broken, I want to change it, but I can't find it......"

After the official from the military department stood up and said such a sentence, other officials came forward to complain.

These things were not a big deal, but now that there is such a trouble, they can't help but worry Li Shimin and other people in the court, craftsmen are a very important group of people in a country, if they disappear, it will be very dangerous, maybe someone wants to rebel, so they are arrested and privately built weapons.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in history.

Therefore, when these people said this, Li Shimin immediately became cautious and asked, "I can't find a craftsman, what is going on?" ”

On the top of the main hall, the ministers looked at each other, but they were silent.

Seeing this situation, the crown prince Li Chengqian was anxious again, although he said that he had brought up this matter, but if no one pulled Tang Zhou out, it would not be appropriate, he made a look at another person, and that person immediately stood up after understanding.

"Holy Lord, the minister has heard of it, and I heard that these craftsmen were all called away by Tang Xiaohouye."

After this official stood up and said such a sentence, the entire court suddenly became noisy, and Cheng Biting Jin hurriedly said: "Impossible, what do the Tang family kid ask so many craftsmen to do." ”

Because of the previous situation, everyone subconsciously thought that the absence of the craftsman was because someone wanted to rebel, so when someone mentioned Tang Zhou, Cheng Yanjin immediately defended Tang Zhou.

The eldest grandson Wuji felt that things were a little strange, but he also said a few words for Tang Zhou, after all, in his opinion, Tang Zhou was a smart person, and it was impossible to do anything rebellious.

Above the court, there were those who questioned Tang Zhou, and there were those who understood Tang Zhou, Li Shimin also felt that Tang Zhou was so smart how could a person do such a stupid thing, he felt that there must be something strange, so he ordered someone to call Tang Zhou.

The eunuch hurriedly left in the rain, and the ministers looked at the heavy rain outside, and from time to time they would talk twice, but after two discussions, everyone suddenly chose to shut up, the sound of wind and rain was loud, and the silence of the hall seemed terrible.

At this moment, there was a sudden cooing sound from nowhere, and then the other places followed suit, and the ministers looked at each other in embarrassment, and then they were even more reluctant to speak.

Hungry, they suddenly hated the official who spoke first, and if he hadn't had to mention it at this time, they would have returned to the house and had eaten the food.

The rain was falling heavily, so it was about half an hour, and when noon had passed, Tang Zhou hurried from outside, but anyone could see that Tang Zhou, this kid, must have come after a full meal, otherwise it wouldn't be so slow.

Tang Zhou came to the main hall, and before he could speak, he heard the sound of cooing endlessly, thinking that it was already past the meal, and these ministers were still waiting for him in the main hall, Tang Zhou smiled secretly in his heart, let you find something for me, you are hungry.

"Minister Tang Zhou visited the saint, I don't know why the saint summoned Weichen to come?"

Li Shimin glanced at Tang Zhou, and saw that his clothes were very dry, obviously he was not in a hurry, which made him a little angry, they were all waiting for him in the main hall, he was good, he was full of food and drink at home, and then came slowly, what did he think of here?

Thinking of this, Li Shimin frowned, and said coldly: "Some people say that you called all the craftsmen in Chang'an City away, are you guilty?" ”

Tang Zhou was stunned for a moment and said: "Back to the saint, the minister did find a lot of craftsmen, but the minister didn't know what crime he had committed." ”

"Bold, privately making weapons, but a felony." The crown prince Li Chengqian suddenly stood up and accused Tang Zhou, Tang Zhou saw that it was Li Chengqian, and immediately understood what was going on, so he hurriedly said to Li Shimin: "Wronged, saint, the minister has no private weapons, those craftsmen are now in the salt and iron division, the minister is a salt and iron envoy, and wants to make my Tang Dynasty's weapons sharper, so I found a craftsman to study, if the minister is guilty of doing his own thing, then the minister please resign from the post of salt and iron envoy." ”

Hearing that Tang Zhou was still playing a little temper, Li Shimin suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh, but in front of the ministers, he still had a tense face and said: "Nonsense, if you want to study weapons, study weapons, I didn't say anything, what kind of emotions are you making, and you are dismissed?" ”

"Minister...... The minister knew he was wrong. ”

Li Shimin nodded, thinking that he and the minister were still hungry, and Tang Zhou had no intention of rebelling, so he was about to retreat from the dynasty, but before Li Shimin could open his mouth to announce his retreat from the dynasty, the previous military official stood up again: "Saint, my Tang Dynasty weapons are already very powerful, why do you need to study them again?" Now that the people have planted soybeans, it is the busy season of farming, but some people want to make farm tools, but they can't, and the minister feels that the behavior of Tang Xiaohou has infringed on the interests of the people of my Tang Dynasty. ”

"Yes, Holy Lord, my people in Chang'an can't do without these craftsmen......"

“………………”

Although the crown prince Li Chengqian's people were very hungry, they still refused to give up for Li Chengqian's sake, and the other ministers couldn't help but be angry when they saw these people like this, but they thought that if they quarreled, they would inevitably have to delay again, so they kept silent for this reason, and watched these people make trouble with Tang Zhou.

Tang Zhou saw these people say this, and more or less guessed what they meant, they wanted to force themselves to say that they were building a very powerful Tang knife, and then force themselves to not be able to turn back, and after he understood this, he only smiled lightly, and did not mention it in that direction, but said: "Now that I have been fighting in the Tang Dynasty for many years, I need weapons very much, and it is nothing for the Salt and Iron Division to study some weapons." ”

"Oh, then I don't know what kind of weapon the little marquis wants to develop?"

"Just be a little stronger than before."

Seeing that Tang Zhou just didn't tear the armor easily, the crown prince Li Chengqian was a little anxious, so he hurriedly asked people to take the initiative to say this.

"Little Hou Ye, you occupy such a large resource, if you don't research some powerful weapons, I'm afraid it's a little unreasonable, is this weapon easy to split the armor?"

"yes, you have to be able to split the armor easily."

“…………”

Hearing these people's suggestive words, Tang Zhou smiled: "This is really hard to say, Ben Hou is not good at things like iron, and doing this is just the responsibility of being a salt and iron envoy, a few people keep saying that it is easy to split the armor, but what are the good suggestions?" ”

Tang Zhou counterattacked, those people were immediately speechless, the crown prince Li Chengqian was in a hurry, and suddenly stood up and said: "Holy Lord, Erchen thinks that if Tang Zhou can't develop a weapon that can easily split the armor, he can't occupy all the craftsmen in the capital, and he has to let them serve the people of my Tang Dynasty, not the salt and iron division." ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, this marquis is not convinced ......"
