On April 18, the eighth year of Zhenguan, this day is the day when Zhang Zheng's filial piety for the old Li Gang expires. At the same time, it was also the day of Li Tai's hot air balloon test flight.

The so-called test flight is actually a small means for Li Tai to save his reputation. Li Tai fooled the five students of the academy into jumping off a cliff, which aroused the anger of the entire Chang'an government and the opposition inside and outside.

Although the impeachment of Li Tai by the imperial historians was forcibly suppressed by Li Shimin, Li Tai's reputation also stinked.

Even the academy had to consider the impact of this incident and forcibly suspended Li Tai. During this time, Li Tai had time to be busy with the hot air balloon business, just because he had nothing to do except this matter.

Things have to be worked out after all. How to solve it, that is, let Li Tai prove that people can really fly to the sky, not delusional.

Only in this way can Li Tai's instigation of students jump off a cliff in the name of experimentation and turn five students into voluntary sacrifices for the great plan of human flight.

Zhang Zheng also knew that this was a very unfair thing for those five students, but where was there any absolute fairness in this world.

Lu Qing, the biggest sufferer, has accepted Li Shimin's compensation and was named a man from Jingyang County. This title can be passed down to one generation, and the next generation will become the son of Jingyang County.

Although the other four were unwilling, in the face of the pressure of imperial power, they had to accept the official position that Li Shimin compensated them for.

And this time, the main participants in the flight are still these five students. Zhang Zheng talked to them seriously in turn, and without exception, the five of them had a dream of flying in their hearts.

They will jump off the cliff with the wings made by Li Tai on their backs, also because Li Tai's theory is too perfect.

Since birds can soar in the sky with both wings, it should theoretically be possible to turn people's hands into wings.

So the five students who had a tendon and a dream of flying were fooled by Li Tai in this way. A few days in advance, Li Tai sent out invitations in the name of the King of Wei, up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the two prime ministers of the court, and down to the county orders of Chang'an and Wannian counties.

The famous high-ranking officials and eunuchs in the Chang'an government and the opposition all received invitations from Li Tai. Invite them to come to the college to watch the ceremony and witness this unprecedented scene in human history, Flying Heaven!

Li Tai's momentum was so great that even His Majesty Li Er and Empress Eldest Sun in the deep palace had heard of it.

Li Shimin learned the news from somewhere, and suddenly smashed the piece in his hand to the ground in front of the eldest grandson and scolded: "This rebel, what kind of moth are you going to do." ”

"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry." The eldest grandson saw that Li Shimin showed signs of anger again, and hurriedly grabbed Li Shimin's hand.

Persuaded softly: "Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to ask Zhang Zheng what the situation is, Qingque'er made such a big noise, even you and I have heard about it, but Zhang Zheng didn't find anyone to tell you and me, maybe there is a shadow of him behind this matter?" ”

"Hmm." Li Shimin thought about it for a while, indeed, Li Tai made such a big move, but Zhang Zheng did not report to him, which is obviously very abnormal.

"The queen has a point." Li Shimin bent down to pick up the fold that he had smashed to the ground, and instructed Wang De, who was standing outside: "Send someone to ask Zhang Zheng why he is messing around with Qingqueer." Wang De bowed his head and responded: "Yes, the old slave will do it." Two hours later, a little eunuch brought two gilded invitations back to the palace from the academy.

The invitee is: His Excellency Li Shimin, President of the Tang Royal Academy. The inviter is: Zhang Shenzhi, the first of the Business School of Datang Royal Academy.

Li Shimin took this gilded invitation and looked at it several times. After confirming that he was not mistaken, he suddenly frowned and said to the eldest grandson beside him: "Zhang Zheng, this kid, why is he messing around with Qingque" The eldest grandson replied with a smile: "According to the concubine's body, it may not be nonsense, the concubine body is going to take a look, will Your Majesty go?" "The eldest grandson also has an invitation in his hand, the format is the same as that in Li Shimin's hand, but the invitee has become the eldest grandson of the Tang Dynasty Queen.

This is the first time that the eldest grandson has lived for half his life, and someone has written an invitation to her with such a formal specification.

"Go, since Zhang Xiaozi is all let go, there must be another hidden story. It's good to go and see it, if people can really fly to the sky, I want to give it a try. When Li Shimin heard this, he said to Wang De outside: "Pass the order, set up the ...... of the Royal Academy...... In the academy, Li Tai came to the top of Cuiwei Mountain, on the huge playground in front of the library pavilion, with his head held high.

He invited so many guests to the ceremony that only this one playground could accommodate so many people.

Although Li Tai has a bad reputation now, he sent out so many invitations in the name of King Wei, and there are still a few people who dare not give him face.

After all, he is His Majesty's favorite son, and there are still cards that should be there. Zhang Zheng was also in the crowd watching the ceremony.

In front of Zhang Zheng, Lu Qing sat in a wheelchair produced by the School of Science, with some expectation and excitement on his face.

Since Mr. sent someone to pick him up, it means that this time he will definitely be able to fly into the sky without fail.

That's heaven, a dream that the Han people have been unable to achieve for thousands of years. And he, Lu Qing, is about to become the first Han man to fly to the sky in thousands of years, and his name will surely be passed down for millions of generations with this incident.

Li Tai dared to swagger and invite so many people to watch the ceremony, and he had naturally tried it many times in private.

The students and gentlemen of the academy have found the most suitable place to observe the ceremony. As the time approached noon, the courtiers who had gone down to the court also came to the top of Cuiwei Mountain in twos and threes.

Tens of thousands of people crowded the entire Cuiwei Mountain Summit, and the entire playground suddenly burst into flames. Li Tai came to Zhang Zheng, muttered a few words softly, took Lu Qing's wheelchair from Zhang Zheng's hand and pushed Lu Qing to the center of the playground.

And then quietly waited for something. Lu Qing was pushed away by Li Tai, turned his head to look at Zhang Zheng with some apprehension on his face, Zhang Zheng's face showed encouragement, and he bowed his head lightly towards him.

This scene attracted the sideways glance of a woman on the balcony on the second floor of the library pavilion. Cui Shu stood on the balcony of the library pavilion very inconspicuously, at this moment there were tens of thousands of people gathered on Cuiwei Mountain, and no one paid attention to Cui Shu hiding on the balcony.

But Cui Shu's eyes as deep as the starry sky looked at Zhang Zheng on the playground. To say that this scene is not pushed by Zhang Zheng behind, she doesn't believe it.

Zhang Zheng seemed to feel something, turned his head to look at the second floor of the library pavilion, and saw that it was the only woman among tens of thousands of people, so he nodded at her friendly.

Peeping on Zhang Zheng and being discovered by him, Cui Shu's face flashed with a hint of shame, and then disappeared into the room behind the balcony.
