Chapter 937: Watches

In Chang'an City, Li Yuanba and Zhao Sanpao and several other fierce generals walked on the road to the palace.

"Lord Wang, we haven't come back for more than a year, and our Chang'an City has undergone such a big change, it can really be called a rapid change!"

In a few years, Li Sanduo, who was originally lean, has gained a lot of weight, but in fact, he is not fat, at most he is strong.

"That's right, it's almost the same every year, you look at the houses in front of you, which were originally just civil structures, but now they have been replaced by concrete high-rise buildings, I just counted carefully, there are five stories high!"

Zhao Sanpao stood behind Li Yuanba's right, and suddenly pointed to a high-rise building that was said to be carved and painted, which was quite ancient, but its material was concrete, and said.

"Do you know whose house it is?" Li Yuanba glanced over there casually, and suddenly asked out loud.

Living in this Chang'an City, you must remember all the residences of those princes and ministers, otherwise, you may go to someone's house in the future!

However, for this unconventional house, Zhao Sanpao and Li Sanduo, even if they wanted to break their heads, they didn't figure out who it was.

"Hahaha, I knew you wouldn't be able to guess!" Li Yuanba laughed and said, "I'll tell you, it's Cheng Lao's house, and only he dares to be the first person to eat crabs!" ”

"It turned out to be Lu Guogong!"

Zhao Sanpao and Li Sanduo showed a look of sudden realization at the same time, and then they both nodded approvingly.

can do this, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, only he Lu Guogong is the only one who bites the gold!

……

"Alright, you guys are all waiting for this king here!"

Everyone walked to the palace gate, Li Yuanba ordered Li Sanduo and they were waiting for him here, but he himself rode Xiaobai and swayed into the palace.

As the eldest grandson got older, the asthma inherited from the family began to recur. Especially in the winter months.

Therefore, Li Shimin specially ordered the craftsmen to make a renovation of the Lizheng Hall where the eldest grandson queen lived, and the original heating method of baking hot air below was changed by the craftsmen to floor heating, and the pipes that lay floor heating were flowing with living water, and the pollution brought by the flow of stagnant water in the winter was also avoided.

At this moment, Li Shimin is accompanying Empress Changsun in the Lizheng Palace.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to do this?"

The years do not seem to have left too many traces on the face of the eldest grandson queen, and the eldest grandson queen at this moment is still as gentle and generous as she was back then. "The empire of Nuoda is not something that children can manage......

"There's nothing you can't manage!"

A smile appeared on Li Shimin's face, he grabbed Empress Changsun's hand, squeezed it gently, and said, "I have been an emperor for so many years, to be honest, I have done enough!" It is only now that I deeply feel the feelings of my father back then. ”

Although Li Yuan announced his abdication after the Xuanwumen Incident that year, it was not Li Shimin who forced him, but he voluntarily abdicated to make way for Xian.

"But ......," Empress Eldest Sun said worriedly, "despite the fact that he has been in charge for so many years. The performance is good, but Ke'er and Su'er have been able to stand alone over the years, if Your Majesty directly passes the throne to Cheng Qian, is it unfair to these children? ”

"This. It's not like I haven't thought about it. Li Shimin frowned slightly, and said: "But after so many years, under the teaching of Yuanba, the brotherhood between these little guys has been quite deep. Even if they don't care about brotherhood, they can't split the Tang Empire again, right? ”

"Split the empire?" Empress Eldest Sun was so frightened by Li Shimin's words that her face turned white, "Your Majesty." They shouldn't be like that, right? ”

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu asks to see you!"

Just when Li Shimin wanted to say something, Liu Sanshui walked in and reported to Li Yuanba.

Compared with Li Shimin, Liu Sanshui is much older, after all, this guy himself is older than Li Shimin, and for so many years, on the one hand, he has to take care of Li Shimin's daily life, and on the other hand, he has to deal with various affairs for Li Shimin, so it is natural for Liu Sanshui to be old.

"Oh, so fast?" Li Shimin sighed in surprise and said, "Well, go and pass him in!" ”

"No!" Liu Sanshui nodded, turned around and walked out of the hall.

After the time when there was no tea, Li Yuanba walked in with two delicate small boxes in his hands.

"Brother Huang, I've only been away for a few months, why did you send me back to Chang'an!" As he walked forward, Li Yuanba still looked disgusted, as if he didn't want to come back this time.

Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Li Shimin was also depressed, he threw Li Yuanba a roll of his eyes angrily, and said, "Do you think I am so idle, every time I have something to do, I will send a decree to let you come back?" ”

It's close, Dingtian Duhu is so far away from Datang, who wants to run back and forth all the time?

"Isn't it the same this time?" Li Yuanba rolled his eyes, threw the small box in his hand in front of Li Shimin, and said, "Here, it is given to you and your second sister-in-law, and it will save you from saying that I came empty-handed." ”

"What's that?"

Li Shimin picked up the delicate small gift box from the table in front of him with some curiosity, and after opening it, he found that it was a gold plate with a gold belt.

This gold disc is round, only about half an inch in diameter, and is divided into two layers, the outer layer is a layer of bright transparent glass, and the inner layer is a plate with a white background, and the small plate has twelve scales, marked with Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3......

These Arabic numerals have been popularized in Datang a few years ago, so Li Shimin also knows what 1, 2, 3, and 4 represent.

In addition to this, there are three thin hands on the dial, one long, one medium, and one short.

To Li Shimin's surprise, in the absence of power, the three hands were all moving, and the direction of movement always followed a special trajectory, even the frequency was specific.

And from either side of the gold plate, there was a band made entirely of gold, shining brightly, blinding his twenty-four-karat titanium alloy eyes.

"Yuanba, what the hell is this thing?" Li Shimin looked at the things in his hand over and over again, how he liked it.

Although he hadn't seen this thing before, it didn't prevent Li Shimin from liking it.

Li Yuanba suddenly grinned and said, "Brother Huang, this thing is called a watch, or a watch, it is a small instrument worn on the wrist to keep time and display the time!" ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, pointed to the small and delicate watch in his hand, and said, "You mean, this thing is used to keep time?" Can this little thing replace the chronograph incense? (To be continued.) )
