Chapter 937: The sense of ritual is very important
Just do it.
Collecting materials is a bit of a hassle, first getting a batch of gunpowder out, and then building some small devices.
These devices can be summoned to blacksmiths for mass production, but it is more laborious for Lee to do this alone.
Cruelly rejecting Qiao'er's request for artillery and sending him away, Li Qinzai locked himself in his study.
The study room in the other courtyard is a very magical place, it has basically not been used, and Li Qinzai is not a person who pays attention to the sense of ceremony, preparing questions for students or something, just find a table to write and draw and call it a day, there is no need to sit in the study seriously.
Today, Li Qinzai rarely entered the study, which surprised the maids in the backyard.
When I entered the study, it was an afternoon.
When the sun was about to set, Cui Jie, who hadn't seen her husband all day, was a little puzzled, so she went out to look around the backyard, and the maid reported that her grandfather was in the study and hadn't come out all afternoon.
Cui Jie was stunned for a moment, then startled, and her expression immediately became solemn.
After marrying Li Qinzai, Li Qinzai's mother Li Cuishi once explained some matters to Cui Jie, taking care of housework, taking care of the family's land and property, etc., which are all trivial matters, and the housewife only needs to instruct the people below to do it.
But there is only one thing, Li Cui's advice is particularly serious.
If it is found that Li Qinzai has entered the study and has not come out for a long time, then he must pay attention to it, and the vicinity of the study must be cleared and martial law, and no one is allowed to approach.
When Li Qinzai came out, everything in the study must be cleaned up, no piece of paper is allowed to be left, and all a series of things such as words and drawings must be kept in the strictest way, or sealed with fire paint and sent directly to the Guogong Mansion in Chang'an, and handed over to Li Tao in person.
When Li Cuishi told Cui Jie, his expression was very serious, and he could even say that he was a little stern.
She told Cui Jie that Li Qinzai must be doing something big in the study at this time, and this matter must be related to the social and national fortunes of the Tang Dynasty, and he must not leak anything out.
Cui Jie's heart was in her heart at that time, and she immediately remembered it.
It's just that Li Qinzai has lived too freely in Zhuangzi in the past few years, and there is almost no chance of being able to use the study, and Cui Jie has almost forgotten Li Cui's advice.
Today, I finally saw Li Qinzai enter the study, and I didn't go out for a long time, Cui Jie's memories were finally awakened, so my nerves suddenly tensed.
"Clear the field, ask Liu Ah Si to take fifty subordinates into the backyard, block the radius near the study, and no one is allowed to approach! Whoever dares to disobey the order will be killed on the spot. Cui Jie ordered with a calm face.
The maid trembled and went to give the order, and soon, Liu Asi led the troops to arrive in a hurry.
Cui Jie only said to Liu Asi, "My husband entered the study and didn't come out all afternoon." ”
Liu Asi understood what she meant, when Li Qinzai was still living in the Guogong Mansion, Liu Asi had seen this experience several times.
So Liu Asi waved his hand, and the subordinates surrounded the study, while Liu Asi stood at the door of the study, standing with a knife, looking in all directions, exuding a faint murderous aura.
Cui Jie silently retreated to the arch of the backyard, instructed the kitchen to heat up the meal, and asked her subordinates to move a low table, the low table was horizontal in the archway, and a pot of charcoal was placed under the table.
The husband is a person who lives a life, which Cui Jie is particularly relieved of.
Every time her husband made a new dish, made a novel toy for buckwheat, even if she was lazily pouring it on the straw mat in the yard, like a salted fish fried on a pan, Cui Jie felt relieved.
Ears and temples grinding, twilight dynasty, quiet and indisputable life, just slowly spend a lifetime together, how many people crave the happiness that can't come.
This kind of happiness is the shallow smile that often overflows unintentionally at the corner of his mouth, and it is also the angry and resentful play in the boudoir, and it is the comfort of getting into his arms in the dead of night.
But Cui Jie knows better that her husband who gets along with her morning and twilight has a broader and more gorgeous world.
In that world, the husband was a courtier who was highly regarded by the Son of Heaven, an arithmetic master who was regarded as a god by the officials and students of the Guozi Prison, and a meritorious minister who was stopped and stared at by the people of the world with every gesture.
Whether it is a courtier or a husband, he has done a very good job, he really seems to be a person who is favored by God, and he has not failed to live up to God's favor, no matter where he is, he is shining.
In the study room of the other courtyard now, Fujun is immersed in that world, and every word and picture of him will affect the national fortune of Datang and make this world more exciting.
Cui Jie's gaze towards the study couldn't help but become more and more obsessed.
The family business that her father set for her back then was also God's favor for her.
There was a sound of soft footsteps behind her, and Cui Jie turned her head vigilantly and looked sternly.
Jin Xiang paused, was frightened by Cui Jie's eyes, and said cautiously: "I shouldn't come?" …… So I'll go? ”
Seeing that it was Jinxiang, Cui Jie's eyes softened and snorted angrily.
"You, you've been married for so long, why hasn't your stomach moved? Our family is going to spread the branches, the husband's incense is going to be passed on, and the huge mansion depends on the two of us, you have to fight for it. Cui Jie said earnestly.
Jin Xiang suddenly became shy: "I...... It's very competitive, and if you fight again, your husband will be almost out of breath......"
Cui Jie said angrily: "I'm embarrassed to say that during my confinement, my husband was occupied by you every day, what was the result?" There is no movement, the husband is called by you, the livestock in the village dare not use it like this, how much can the donkey grind in a day to grind two loads of grain, what did the husband grind? ”
Jin Xiang became more and more embarrassed, and said softly with a red face: "My husband is also grinding, and his actions are very rude......
Cui Jie was stunned: "............"
Then Cui Jie understood in seconds, and suddenly blushed and snorted. Sure enough, no matter how dignified and serious a woman used to be, as long as she got married, she would be so yellow that she would dare to say anything meaty.
At this time, the door of the study finally opened, and Li Qinzai stretched his waist and walked out of it.
When the lazy waist stretched halfway, he found that the outside of the door was surrounded by a heavy curve, as if he was facing a great enemy, and there was not even a dog to see except for the subordinates.
Li Qinzai was shocked: "Our family has entered the thief, or is there an assassin?" ”
Liu Asi, who was standing outside the door, turned around and clenched his fists: "The fifth young man finally came out, the young lady commanded, when you are in the study, you must be on guard all around, and no one is allowed to approach." ”
Li Qinzai suddenly had a long-lost sense of ceremony, as long as he entered the study, it was best to kill the ants and fleas around, otherwise the ants and fleas might leak state secrets.
There's nothing to say, life, always allow others to make some movement, not only a sense of ceremony, but also a sense of mission.
patted Liu Asi on the shoulder, Li Qinzai smiled: "Don't be so nervous, I'm just doing something new." ”
Liu Asi said awe-inspiringly: "The young lady has an order, and the piece of paper is not allowed to leave the study, and it is not allowed to be seen by outsiders." ”
Li Qinzai sighed and handed him a few drawings: "Find a few blacksmiths and help me build them, I have marked the specific dimensions on the drawings ......"
Liu Asi said again: "You can't find a blacksmith outside, our Guogong Mansion has a craftsman specially prepared for the fifth young man, and the villain will send a fast horse to summon them." ”
Li Qinzai waved his hand: "Whatever, just as soon as possible, the cold weather is restless." ”
Walking to the courtyard, Li Qinzai found that the subordinates were still surrounding the study, Cui Jie came to meet him, Li Qinzai just smiled and was about to say hello, but saw Cui Jie passing by him with a calm face, went straight into the study, searched inside, and held a pile of waste manuscript paper crumpled by Li Qinzai in his arms.
Carefully unfolded and flattened the waste manuscript, put it in a small wooden box, and locked it, Cui Jie glared at him angrily.
"The husband is really careless, and the waste paper can't be left in the study, if it is seen by the maid and passed out, it will be unfavorable to the country, the society will be uneasy, and the ancestral tablet of our family will fall."
Li Qinzai smiled: "Even if I put the things I painted in front of the Goguryeo or Tubo people to show them, they can't understand them......"
Cui Jie interrupted: "That's not good, in short, not a single piece of paper can be left in the study." Before the husband wants to go into the study to do something big in the future, he will say hello to the concubine, don't be as silent as today, it almost broke down. ”
Li Qinzai sighed, of course it is good to be vigilant, but it is a bit neurotic to be too vigilant.
It took time to summon the craftsmen from Chang'an City, and it was not until midnight that the craftsmen finally arrived at Ganjingzhuang.
Li Qinzai had already fallen asleep, and the subordinates did not dare to disturb him, so they had to wait for Wu Shaolang to wake up naturally the next day.
The next day, when it was almost noon, Li Qinzai finally got up unsatisfied.
The craftsmen waited in the front yard, and Li Qinzai handed them the drawings and instructed them to build the device on it, not to be too fine, but to be of correct size, without the slightest deviation.
The craftsmen didn't know what they were going to build, and they wisely didn't dare to ask, but just looked at the strange shapes and parts on the drawings, and after studying each other, they immediately divided the work and started the furnace.
The parts are not difficult to create, and under the condition that there is no need to make molds for mass production, in less than two hours, the parts that Li Qinzai needs were perfectly made by craftsmen.
Li Qinzai gestured and felt that it was not bad, so he held the finished parts and took the half basket of gunpowder he had prepared yesterday into the study.
The study continued to be under martial law, and Li Qinzai worked hard inside for a long time, and finally came out with a small round iron box.
This time, Li Qinzai's posture when he walked out of the door was very careful, and every step was like walking on thin ice, and his expression was extremely solemn.
Liu Asi, who was guarding the door, was frightened by his appearance, and subconsciously reached out to help take the small iron box in his hand, but Li Qinzai shook his head.
"Don't move, I don't know if this thing will succeed or not, be careful that it will blow up."
Liu Ah was shocked and hurriedly ordered the troops to open the way for Li Qinzai.
Li Qinzai held the small iron box and walked all the way to the gate of the mansion, and happened to meet the little bastards in the school, who were about to enter the courtyard one by one, obviously coming to Mr.'s house to eat.
Seeing the subordinates stopped at the door, Li Qinzai cautiously walked out with a small iron box, and the little bastards couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
Of course, Lee So-jeong is no stranger to this picture, and when Mr. Lee made the Three-Eyed Gun in Baekje, the same scene was seen all around.
Li Sujie slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Mr. has made a new gadget again!" ”
The little bastards were about to step forward, but they were stopped by Liu Asi and the subordinates.
Li Qinzai stared at the small iron box in his hand, moved it out step by step, and said lightly: "Don't get close, this thing is very domineering, stay away from me, I'll find a place to try......"
"Where is the gentleman going? The disciple is willing to go with him. The little bastards said in unison.
"Same fart, if you are not careful, our teachers and students will be wiped out, don't you hate reading? I'm going to blow you up the school......"
