For a period of time after that, Li Shan was busy with the affairs of the artillery workshop, and there were fewer people from the third prince's side.

In fact, accompanying the reading is an easy errand, as long as the prince's grades are good, it is easy to say anything, and the prince's grades are not good, it is no wonder that the waiter is the teacher's responsibility, and the waiter mainly wants to create a learning atmosphere for the princes and set an example of learning.

The artillery workshop has been in full swing, and the basic firearms production is very simple, and the thunder, rockets, etc. are all hand-to-hand, and they can already be mass-produced.

But as for the study of muskets and artillery, it is more time-consuming, and Li Shan is also trying to learn as much as possible, although his knowledge reserve is much higher than that of the Tang Dynasty, but it does not mean that he knows everything.

For example, the level of the metallurgical industry in the Tang Dynasty was completely unknown to him, although Li Shan knew that weapons were forged, but the specific forging process was really not clear at all. That's why the cannon he built in the first place failed.

Until the forging process was fully understood, it was almost impossible to make muskets and cannons.

And the official document of sea fishing has been sent, hoping that Long Xueling can be found, as for how to lie after finding it, Li Shan is thinking about this now, he really doesn't believe that Long Xueling can't be found in this way.

After staying in the artillery workshop for more than half a month, Li Shan took time to go to the palace again, after all, the third prince still had to come to take care of it.

After Li Shan's previous guidance, Wang Zhongsi finally mustered up the courage to ask the emperor to go to the army for training. The emperor admired Wang Zhonghei very much for having such ambitions at such a young age, and readily agreed, and even promoted Wang Zhongsi to the centurion of Qianniuwei and followed Li Zhengfang, which shows that he still attaches great importance to him.

However, without Wang Zhonghei in the palace, Li Heng was a little lonely.

And the crown prince Li Ying didn't seem to want to let go of Li Heng, Li Shan came to the racecourse to know the goods, and when he saw the two of them, it seemed that they were arguing again.

Li Ying said aggressively: "How is it? After that dog of yours is gone. Don't you dare to compete with me? Don't worry, you're a younger brother, I'll let you, but if you don't compare, it's okay, and I'll let you go if you learn to bark twice. ”

Li Heng listened to Li Shan's previous words and tried to tolerate everything, but it seems that Li Shan's judgment was a little wrong, and some people will let you go if you don't let him go. For example, Li Ying, the more you tolerate it, the more he will think that you are a bully, and he will become even worse.

"You. Don't deceive people too much. After all, Li Heng is only a ten-year-old child, and there is really not much he can do in the face of his brother, who is five years older than him.

Li Ying took a bow, pulled the bow and set up an arrow, and shot an arrow at a distant target, although it couldn't hit the heart, but it was enough for him to feel good about himself.

"Come on, I've already shot an arrow, it's your turn." said. Li Ying handed the bow and arrow to Li Heng.

Li Hengcai was only a ten-year-old child, he couldn't pull the bow used by Li Ying, and his own bow strength was too small to shoot at such a long distance. I didn't know what to do for a while.

"The third prince, the minister just went to the bedroom of the noble concubine Niangniang, and learned that the third prince is here, so he came to see him." Li Shan deliberately ignored the crown prince Li Ying and saluted directly to the three princes.

Li Heng was very happy when he saw Li Shan: "Lord Li." You're here, then let's go, we won't practice riding and archery today. He finally found an excuse to leave.

But Li Shan didn't want to leave. Stopped Li Heng and said: "The third prince, since the crown prince wants to compete with the third prince, the third prince should not fight, otherwise it will not seem timid." ”

Li Heng was a little embarrassed when he heard Li Shan's words, and thought that Li Shan would help him. Unexpectedly, Li Shan said this.

However, Li Shan didn't finish speaking, looked at the prince and continued: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't use this bow and arrow for the third prince, you are already fifteen years old and the third prince is only ten years old, so it seems that you are suspected of bullying the small with the big." In this way, let Weichen replace the three princes and compete with you. ”

The prince snorted coldly and said, "What are you, does this prince want to compare with you?" Get out of the way. ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words are wrong, I am the attendant of the three princes, and I will also learn what the three princes have learned, since archery and horse riding are a necessary skill for the princes, then as an attendant, I must naturally be proficient. If the prince thinks that I am older than the prince and dare not compete with me, I also understand, after all, you only dare to compete with people younger than you. ”

"You, presumptuous." The prince didn't expect Li Shan to dare to humiliate him, but he was in a dilemma because of the radical method.

"Of course, if the prince thinks that this is unfair, you can also find one of your attendants or generals to compete with the minister, and the minister is willing to be punished if he loses." Li Shan continued.

It seems that Li Shan has made concessions, but in fact, Li Shan is clear that the prince's reading of ink is okay, but it is not as good as riding and shooting. Except for the master who taught him, there was basically no one here who could shoot arrows, even if it was a general.

But Li Shan is different, Li Shan went through several battles when he was in Liangzhou, and found that it was too difficult to stand cheap on the battlefield, so he retreated to the next best thing is to practice bows and arrows for a period of time, as far as Shen Shixing's evaluation of Li Shan at that time can be summed up in two words: genius.

So Li Shan is still confident in this regard.

"Okay, bet. If you lose, you will get out of the way as long as Prince Ben is in the racecourse. Although Li Ying knew some things about Li Shan, she was a child after all, so she didn't know much about it, thinking that Li Shan was just a scribe who could write poetry.

"Okay, but the stakes should be equal, what if the prince loses?" Of course, Li Shan will not be untargeted, since he is going to offend the prince, he might as well offend a little more thoroughly.

"You, what do you want Prince Ben to do? As long as you dare to say it, Prince Ben will agree. Li Ying looked at Li Shan coldly, he forgave Li Shan and didn't dare to say anything rebellious.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince laughed, where did the minister dare to make any requests. However, the prince said, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, how the prince asks the three princes, just do it yourself. Li Shancai won't say anything, and he will fall into his mouth.

"You, you have a kind. Come on, Prince Ben doesn't believe you can win. "The prince's self-confidence is justified, because Master Xi has always praised Li Ying and praised Li Ying as a genius.

But is that really the case? Tang Xuanzong attached great importance to literature and light on martial arts, and attached great importance to the princes' studies, but although archery was also included in the princes' curriculum, it was never assessed. No claims were made either. Therefore, the teachers are naturally happy to send this favor, and it is good for the princes to practice no matter how they practice, it doesn't matter how they practice anyway.

"The prince pleases first." Li Shan made a very polite gesture.

Li Ying snorted disdainfully, picked up the bow and aimed carefully, and shot over, and her luck seemed to be good, hitting the bull's-eye. However, the targets that the princes shoot have big hearts.

Hit the bull's-eye, Li Ying was a little proud, and the attendants beside him kept praising him. Li Ying glanced at Li Shan provocatively and said, "I won't bully you either." Let's compare this pot of arrows, ten, to see who has more. ”

Li Shan also picked up a bow casually, pulled the bowstring twice, and tried his strength. Compared with the bow and arrows used in war, such a bow is beautifully made, but it is flashy and soft.

Li Shan held the bow tightly, and with his other hand pulled out an arrow from the quiver and put it on the string. You can always see people on TV pulling bows with their index and middle fingers. Actually, this is very wrong. It's not that this method of drawing the bow is wrong, but that this method does not exist with China, it is the way of shooting in the West, especially in Europe.

For China. The bowstring is pulled by the thumb, and the index and middle fingers clasp the thumb. The language description is more difficult, so if you are interested, you can find out on your own.

And for a strong bow, a wrench. Or the holster is very important, otherwise the long thread will wear out your hands.

An arrow shot out with a "whoosh", and there was a burst of laughter from the prince's side. The reason is simple. Li Shan's shot missed and missed the target directly.

Li Shan shook his head, the feeling was really not good, if it was the bow and arrow used in Liangzhou, this arrow would definitely hit the heart. But fortunately, the feel can be recovered.

Li Ying also laughed: "I thought you were so powerful, if you don't want to fight, it's a waste, the master is a waste, and the slave is also a waste." ”

Li Shan said disapprerovitically: "The ten arrows have not been shot yet, and the winner can only be separated after the shooting." ”

Li Ying snorted coldly, and shot an arrow with a bow again, this arrow was a little off, but it still hit the target. Li Ying panicked in her heart.

Li Shan took the bow again, this time he had already found some touch, adjusted his breathing, closed his eyes, and felt the elasticity of the bowstring with his heart. He opened his eyes suddenly, loosened his bowstring, and shouted at the same time: "Medium." ”

Sure enough, the arrow hit the bull's-eye.

Li Ying was taken aback, although Li Shan's first arrow missed, Li Shan was not panicked at all, especially the second arrow had already shouted out the Chinese character before it was shot, which showed that his own archery skills were very confident.

Bluffing, Li Ying didn't believe in Li Shan's archery, and shot another arrow, which also hit the bull's-eye.

Li Ying's archery skills are still okay, and it stands to reason that as long as he doesn't miss the target, he will already win. After all, there is no point system for this kind of target, a shot is a shot, no matter where you shoot at the target, a missed target is a missed target.

Li Shan is another steady arrow, hitting the bull's eye, and Li Shan, who has found the feel, can already easily hit the target.

Li Ying didn't dare to guarantee that she could hit every arrow, let alone the bull's-eye, and the pressure was getting bigger and bigger.

The fourth arrow, Li Shanzheng, hit the bull's-eye, and the prince hit the target.

The fifth arrow, Li Shanzheng, hit the bull's-eye, and the prince also hit the bull's-eye.

The sixth arrow, Li Shanzheng, hit the bull's-eye, and the prince hit the target.

The seventh arrow, Li Shan, hit the bull's-eye, and the prince's arrow almost missed the target and was inserted on the side.

The eighth arrow Li Shan hit the bull's-eye, and the prince's hand holding the bow and arrow was trembling, and he didn't see a trace of nervousness on Li Shan's face, but he himself was already at a loss.

The prince finally couldn't bear the pressure, and an arrow missed the target. "Ah, it's not comparable, it's boring, go back to the palace."

The prince knew that there was no hope of victory, so he threw his bow directly and left with the people.

Li Shan didn't stop him, put away his bow and arrows and said, "Third prince, let's go back too." ”

On the way back, the third prince asked, "Li Shan, you said before that you must be patient in everything and keep your eyes open." But why are you in conflict with the crown prince today? ”

Li Shan said with a smile: "Third prince, some people can't blindly tolerate it, the more you endure him, the more you will gain an inch." Show your claws when necessary to let him know that you are not a bully. And the third prince, something like this, especially without your personal appearance. As a ruler, you don't need to be proficient in archery, poetry, and songwriting. What you need is someone who can control and encompass the ability to help you do things. Just like today, when you are bullied by the crown prince, you don't have to do it yourself, as long as you have someone around you who is proficient in this matter. ”

Li Heng nodded and said, "Mr. is reasonable, I remember it." ”

"Third prince, what you have to do in the future, you must be proficient in your studies, but you don't have to show it, the more hidden it is, the more threatening it is. Usually make friends with people who have the ability, be humble and polite to people, especially many talented people have strange tempers, and the three princes must not be good-looking. ”

"I see."

Li Shan followed the three princes back to the palace, but when he arrived in the palace of Yang Guifei, he saw a person, Wu Jieyu. (To be continued.) )
