Seeing that the water in the pot was also boiling, Zhang Yang picked up the kettle and poured a bowl of tea.

Li Shimin sighed: "Gao Shilian said that you are a talent that can be created, and you can become the pillar of the DPRK and the country in the future." ”

"Really?"

"Hmm." Li Shimin picked up the tea bowl and just wanted to drink it and put it down, "I told you before that I would let you read more sage books." ”

"I'm reading."

Zhang Yang talked about helping Xiao Wu set up the tables and chairs.

"Are you usually thinking about these calculations?"

"It's just a little hobby."

"Hobbies?" Li Shimin smiled in astonishment, "I have seen an old scheming person, you should be high-spirited and high-spirited at a young age. ”

"I'm very high-spirited, huh." Zhang Yang nodded and said, "It's all so popular that the people in the Shi clan want to kill me quickly, peel me and eat it alive." ”

"I hope that you can cultivate more righteousness by reading the books of sages."

"I am upright, Chang'an City knows that I am open, everyone knows that I will be more honest, and I will repay my eyes."

"This is what you call righteousness?"

"That's right."

The monarch and the ministers looked at each other speechlessly for a while, this son-in-law has a strange temperament, even if he asks him to read more sage books, he also hopes that he can have more gentlemanly spirit in his heart.

Usually looks like a very bookish person.。

Li Shimin knew in his heart how sinister Zhang Yang's heart was under this appearance, and how many lives he had died in his hands in the countries outside the Guanwai.

His gains and losses have always been stingy in weighing.

Faced with such a courtier, Li Shimin asked himself how to control it.

His eyes fell on the daughter who was talking to the queen, and now Yue'er was pregnant with his flesh and blood, and she was somewhat sure in her heart.

The meal was already on the table, and Zhang Yang said again: "Your Majesty, we don't have any alcohol at home. ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "It's okay." ”

The father sat down, and a group of princes and princesses also sat down.

Li Shimin picked up a piece of sauced beef and put it in his mouth to taste, the salty and fragrant beef tasted very good, and there was this crispy texture, and he wanted to drink more while eating.

Seeing that Zhang Yang added some more tea, his mouth felt more and more tasteless.

Zhang Yang whispered; "Your Majesty can bring some back if you like."

Li Shimin nodded, "It's okay, beef is rare?" Where did the beef come from. ”

Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "It was said that there was a cow in their Cheng family's field that broke its leg." ”

The chopsticks in his hand stopped slightly, and Li Shimin had to give up when he wanted to speak.

The children ate happily, especially Li Zhi ate three bowls of rice, the child didn't eat much vegetables, and he tried his best to pick up the rice in his mouth.

It makes people feel distressed, the days in the palace must be very hard, Zhang Yang thought in his heart.

Gao Yang looked back at the roof from time to time while eating, and the bear would rather be hungry at this time than dare to come down.

A plate of beef in sauce, Li Shimin ate it with relish, and the child did not dare to eat the food that his father was enjoying.

After the meal, Li Shimin's family was about to leave, and Li Yue also deliberately packed two large pieces of sauce beef in a food box, which was more than five catties.

That's almost half of the family's inventory.

Li Yue handed the food box to the queen, "These sauced beef can be brought back to the palace for my father to eat." ”

Seeing that the queen didn't take the food box, Li Yue handed it to Lizhi directly, "If my father doesn't love it, I can also give it to my younger brothers and sisters." ”

Li Lizhi nodded obediently.

The couple walked out of the house to say goodbye.

Watching the emperor's car drive out of the alley, Zhang Yang said melancholy: "It's a pity that there is so much beef." ”

Li Yue stretched out his hand and twisted the soft meat on her husband's waist, "You can have more beef, make more of it another day." ”

Zhang Yang endured the pain, "I still have to count on when the cow in Chu Mo's family will break its leg." ”

Letting go of his hand, Li Yue returned to the courtyard satisfied.

Xiao Wu put the broth, rice, and some minced chicken bones into a bowl, and she knocked on the bowl, and the bear poked down from the roof.

After confirming that the little devil below was gone, it climbed down.

Zhang Yang cleaned up the house, "Da'an sent a letter saying that he found a few more bears in Liaodong and thought about whether to send them over." ”

Li Yue moved all the chairs in the yard into the house, "It's good, we can raise a few more when we move to Lishan." ”

Because Li Shimin and his family came to visit, the courtyard was very chaotic at the moment.

It took half an hour to clean up the yard, and Zhang Yang put some items back in place to confirm that there was nothing missing at home.

When I returned to the house, I heard the sound of water in the room, Xiao Wu and his daughter-in-law were taking a bath.

Zhang Yang sat at his desk, took out some parts from the drawer, and patiently assembled them.

A hair-thin iron needle was fixed on the compass, and Zhang Yang held his breath and placed a thin piece of iron on the top end, observing the movement of the iron piece.

Slowly turning the compass, I saw that the pointer moved, and I was overjoyed for a while.

But the hand only moved for a moment, and then it didn't move again.

When he came back to his senses, Zhang Yang found that his daughter-in-law was already standing aside in loose pajamas without knowing when she was wearing long wet hair, and she was wearing thin pajamas.

"Failed again?" Li Yue said in a low voice.

"Hmm." Zhang Yang held her in his arms, "But it's very close to success." ”

Sitting on her husband's lap, Li Yue's eyes looked at the pointer, "This has been worn so thin, is it still not good?" ”

"There was some movement at first, but it was brief."

"Isn't the iron hand light enough?"

Zhang Yang blinked vigorously, and quickly chirped on his daughter-in-law's face, "Wake up the dreamer with a word." ”

Li Yue's pretty face turned red and looked at Xiao Wu in the room, but fortunately she didn't see it, otherwise she would die of shame.

Getting down from her husband's knees, Li Yue walked to Xiao Wu's room to teach her to do the questions.

The daughter-in-law is right, changing the material may solve the whole dilemma at hand.

This requires materials that are more affected by magnetism.

Natural metals such as copper, silver, and gold can be disregarded.

Changing the material needs to be considered from the forging, so that it can be changed into a material that is more affected by magnetism, and the same is true for carbon powder when wrought iron, and copper powder is added when calcining gold.

After all, it still depends on technology, Zhang Yang has a conclusion in his heart.

With eyebrows, my mood is much better, and after taking a bath, I took a bath and went to bed early with my daughter-in-law.

……

In the morning of the next day, Zhang Yang was dozing off in class.

Li Shimin said loudly: "Now that the Western Regions of Tibet are quiet, I am determined to worship my ancestors in mid-October to show my heavens, and invite envoys from all countries to a banquet. ”

Hearing this emperor, Zhang Yang's original sleepiness vanished, "Your Majesty, the minister is against it." ”

Li Shimin's face immediately sank, "Why?" ”

"The minister thinks that His Majesty should be diligent and thrifty and self-disciplined, and the matter of worshipping ancestors is naturally good, but the Western Regions are only temporarily taken and not yet governed, and although Tubo has been stabilized, many tribes in Tubo are educated."

The words fell, and the emperor closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Do you think my ancestor sacrifice is exaggerated?" ”

"Your Majesty should not be arrogant, you should take advantage of this time to make great efforts, make great progress, and go further, such as completing the construction of government and education as soon as possible."

The hall was quiet for a moment, and Li Shimin lowered his voice: "Zhang Shangshu is right, I should be diligent and thrifty and self-disciplined, and you should be the same." ”

"The ministers receive orders." A group of civil servants and military generals saluted.

"In the third year of my reign, there was a great drought in Guanzhong, and in the past four years, I want to reduce taxes again, especially in Luoyang and many state capitals east of Tongguan."

Zhang Yang stood up again from the court, "Your Majesty, the minister is against it." ”

As if he had been choked by the throat, Li Shimin blushed and said in a deep voice: "Why are you opposed? I have always adhered to the principle of light-heartedness. ”

"It's right to pay a light tax, but it can't be too much, now the tax is thin and the DPRK and China's finances are tight several times, if the tax is reduced again, not to mention that the construction of government and education will stop, where will the money come from for the construction of the Hexi Corridor Pass, and if the grain tax is low, the rich are not the peasant households, but the land sovereignty is expensive."

"Your Majesty, the ministers are all for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty! Leaving money and family funds to use on key construction is the right way. ”

Wei Zheng also stood up for the court, "The minister also seconded the proposal, and the farmers should be given a thin endowment, but the land sovereignty should be strictly controlled." ”

Wei Zheng and Zhang Yang, old and young, suppressed the thoughts of His Majesty today.

Li Shimin's expression was very bad, and he said loudly: "Many people in the palace said that there are still many temples that are deserted and idle, and I want to rebuild them. ”

Zhang Yang stood up again from the court, "Your Majesty, the minister is against it." ”

After looking at Zhang Yang for a while, Li Shimin stood up suddenly, "If there is no replay, retreat." ”

didn't listen to any reason, Li Shimin left the Taiji Hall quickly.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang sighed and walked in the crowd and sighed that the Heavenly Khan was getting more and more inflated, and he would have to advise him more in the future, and greeted Xu Xiaode again: "Now that Xu Chang has walked out of the East Palace, he is already the imperial historian of the Imperial History Terrace. ”

Xu Xiaode replied: "Because of Yan Shigu's matter, Your Majesty saw that the official was meritorious, so it was arranged in the Imperial History Terrace." ”

Walking all the way with his hands in his hands, Zhang Yang advised: "I hope that Xu Yushi will supervise more officials in the court in the future." ”

Xu Xiaode bowed slightly, "The lower officials should persevere, but if there is empirical evidence in all knowledge, they will be reported." ”

Standing still, Zhang Yang said again: "Is there a direction?" ”

Xu Xiaode pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know where the direction Zhang Shangshu is talking about?" ”

"The matter of Yan Shigu is now over, does Xu Yushi think that this matter can really end here?"

"The lower officials are willing to hear the details."

Zhang Yang whispered: "After Yan Shigu falls, there must be more people behind him, especially Lu Chengqing, the head of the household department, who has been interrogated by the criminal department, it seems that there is no problem with his words, but is there really nothing strange in it?" The blame is that he picked himself too cleanly. ”

Xu Xiaode's expression was solemn, "Xiaguan understands." ”

"It is necessary to be a hundred officials of the imperial history, but it is also necessary to maintain the spirit of supervision, and let the hundred officials know that there is always a knife hanging over their heads."

Hearing this, Xu Xiaode subconsciously looked at the top of his head.

"You have to have a direction, you have to keep your eyes on the target, you can't listen to one thing at a time, and you have to step up your own inquiries." Zhang Yang smiled after speaking, "I still have to go to the storehouse, so I will stay soon." ”

These words made Xu Xiaode find a new direction as the imperial history, and not only did he not hold a grudge when he impeached Zhang Shangshu of Lishan, but now he is still dialing, presumably an open-minded person.

was about to say something more, but saw that Zhang Yang had gone away.

Xu Xiaode straightened his clothes and raised his head to go outside the Chengtian Gate.

The book at home was almost finished, and when Zhang Yang walked to the Zuozang Library, he found that the eunuchs in the Ganlu Hall were hurrying back and forth.

"Your Majesty's temper has been good lately, but he is short-tempered."

"It's still on fire, so I'm going to go to the Imperial Doctor's Department."

"I'm still cautious in our words and deeds, the last eunuch who offended His Majesty with his words doesn't know where he died."

"It is said that the flowers and plants around the pond are very dense, and it may be ......."

"Alas......"

The two eunuchs were talking and their steps were getting faster and faster, and Zhang Yang listened to this and continued to walk towards the Zuozang Vault.

Now the left storage has been cleaned up, and there are guards guarding the door.

As soon as he walked to the door, he bumped into Li Ke.

The boy was standing straight in front of the door.

The prince also needs to guard here?

With doubts in his heart, he stepped into the storehouse.

"Didn't you see me?"

With a cold word, Zhang Yang stopped, turned around and said, "I saw it." ”

Li Ke was holding a horizontal knife, and the little man also showed an air of rank, "The mother concubine said that you are a very wise person." ”

Zhang Yang rummaged through the books, "Learn more, read more, experience more, think more, and ask more questions will make people wise." ”

Li Ke stepped forward, "The concubine hopes that I can worship you as a teacher." ”

Zhang Yang looked at a volume of books and frowned, "I have no plans to accept disciples for the time being." ”

The vault was quiet again, and Li Ke just stood aside.

Zhang Yang walked towards another bookshelf, and the kid followed suit, "His Royal Highness the King of Shu, I said that I have no plans to accept disciples." ”

Li Ke grimaced, "I know." ”

"Then why are you still following me?"

"The concubine wants me to be your disciple."

Is this kid not good at words, Zhang Yang scratched his head in annoyance.

Li Ke said again: "I know that you often come to the vault, but this time you came very late, after a month. ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu has been waiting here for this month?"

"Hmm."

Zhang Yang put a book back on the shelf, "I can't teach much, what does His Royal Highness the King of Shu want to learn?" ”

Li Ke's expression relaxed a lot at this time, and he asked lately, "Did Zhang Shangshu agree?" ”

Zhang Yang took a few volumes of books and put them in a package, "I'm thinking about it." ”

"I want to be a great general, like General Li Jing."

"It's hard, maybe it's completely impossible." Zhang Yang directly gave him a basin of cold water.

"I'm diligent."

"This has nothing to do with diligence, it has something to do with the identity of His Royal Highness the King of Shu." Zhang Yang thought for a moment, "But I have recently studied the method of military training, and I want a practical result." ”

"Really?"

The words are simple, one question and one answer, it is really the temperament in the army, Li Ke is a soldier model, and he is the kind of pacesetter.

"Please go down to His Royal Highness the King of Shu to prepare pen and ink, I will write a copy for you now, it may not be complete, you can practice it first, if there is an effect, I will add it later."

"Good! That's what to arrange. ”

Li Ke is the emperor's heir, and military power is a high-voltage line for the emperor, and it is not suitable for him to lead troops to fight in Li Ke's future plan.

The Emperor had to leave him in the ranks.

This kid has been trained in the army since he was a child, his foundation is in the army, it is difficult to let him learn other knowledge, he missed the most critical age, and now he is like a child with a very serious bias.

I found a few books on astrology for my daughter-in-law, and then I found a book on cast iron for myself, which was technically needed.

There are many unique ancient books, but there are not many books with high practicality.
