Technological breakthrough is a long process, and the casting process is a breakthrough.

As for the production mode, Lishan can better carry out overall management, everyone has the strength to work together, reasonable allocation of manpower, and the distribution of processes can improve efficiency several times.

At present, Lishan's technical research focuses on two aspects, one is textile technology, and the other is the iron casting brought by Master Jiang.

Advances have been made in ironware, and textile technology needs to change processes to improve efficiency, and textile technology can only stay at this stage for the time being until new ironware parts such as springs are introduced.

Technological breakthroughs have brought about exponential growth in production benefits.

It's like in the embryonic stage, and now it needs to be well cared for, and it needs huge resources and the emperor's privileges to rely on

Li Yue has been at home these days, and after she has a stroller, she doesn't have to carry the child around the yard, and she can go out and walk two steps with the cart.

In the courtyard, the food was on the table, and seeing that her husband had no appetite, Li Yue asked in a low voice, "Something on your mind?" ”

Zhang Yang nodded and glanced at the house, where the aunt was taking care of her daughter.

"My daughter cries when she sees me." Zhang Yang let out a long sigh of wistfulness.

"Now she is still young, and if she grows up for another month or two, she won't cry if she looks at it more in the future."

Xiao Wu and Xu Hui ate their meals with a smile on their back.

After eating, when the child fell asleep, Zhang Yang picked her up and looked at her carefully, her eyebrows and eyes had not grown yet.

I can hold the child for a while while he is asleep.

Aunt Yang smiled: "This child is so noisy at such a young age, and he will also be a lively child in the future." ”

The child frowned, looking to wake up.

Just as soon as I opened my eyes, one big and one small looked at each other for a long time.

Zhang Yang could even see himself in her clear eyes.

"Wow......"

Sure enough, she started crying again.

Li Yue took the child and coaxed it, and said with a smile: "Even if you mess around again, you will be afraid of your father in the future." ”

When the child arrived in the arms of his daughter-in-law, he was quiet again.

Li Yue was holding the child in one hand and the scroll in the other.

After a month of such days, the court is about to open, and Aunt Wang went to Chang'an City and brought some news.

His Majesty went to see General Li Jing, and Li Jing once again resigned to His Majesty, but His Majesty did not give a positive word, and the Emperor neither agreed nor refused.

Instead, Li Jing's original acting duke was renamed the Duke of Weiguo, and more food and fiefs were given.

The emperor once again showed his care for his courtiers, and did not hesitate to reward the courtiers who had made meritorious contributions to the society.

Li Yue pushed the stroller and walked outside the house, "Husband, let's go see the imperial grandfather before we go back to Chang'an." ”

"That's right."

After recuperating for a month, Li Yue's body finally improved, and he could at least walk a little longer.

Zhang Yang took the stroller and pushed it all the way.

The bear followed, shaking his still fat body and looking left and right, as if he was guarding.

The daughter sat in the stroller and looked in front of her, and sometimes there was laughter, and I didn't know what she was laughing at.

In front of Li Yuan's house, the old man was sitting in the sun with his eyes closed.

Li Yue stepped forward and called softly, "Grandpa Huang? ”

Only then did Li Yuan open his eyes, come back to his senses, and saw that the couple in front of him stood up.

Zhang Yang pushed the stroller over, "Look at your granddaughter." ”

Hearing this, Li Yuan noticed the child in the stroller, and the little guy's tender hand pulled a few hanging ribbons in the stroller.

"He looks like a pretty kid." Li Yuan reached out and picked her up.

The child immediately began to cry, and Li Yuan smiled even more happily, "The crying is also loud, very good." ”

But then Li Yuan found that no matter how much he coaxed, he couldn't coax him, and the child kept crying.

It wasn't until she returned to Li Yue's arms that she stopped crying.

Li Yuan stared at her again, and the doll began to cry again.

Zhang Yang was melancholy and understood one thing, this child cries when she sees everyone, and she will cry when others hold her, and she is only calm when Li Yue and her aunt are in their arms.

Although the doll kept crying, Li Yuan was still very happy, and he sat down, "Erlang is not as humane as you and your wife. ”

Zhang Yang sat down with his old man, "Doesn't Your Majesty bring your children to visit you?" ”

Li Yuan snorted coldly: "How can you think of the old man when he is busy with state affairs, but he often sends some rare treasures, he doesn't know what I want, he always thinks that I like these treasures, and what is the use of asking for these things at a great age." ”

"You are old, and all you want in your heart is your grandson around your knees." Zhang Yang sat cross-legged, "Our family is planning to go back to Chang'an City, and Yue'er's body is also recovering well." ”

Li Yuan nodded, "You are in the Ministry of Rites, and you are a waiter in Zhongshu Province, so you should go back to Chang'an City." ”

Zhang Yang said again: "You know me, it's too late for me to hide from the court." ”

Li Yuan smiled again, "Erlang has said more than once that you're not. ”

"I thought that Tian Khan was wise and martial, but I didn't expect to say bad things about me behind my back, not a gentleman."

"Wise and powerful? Is he half as wise and martial as I am? ”

"Tian Khan is your son, you can say that, how dare we, who are courtiers, talk about it like this."

"This is Lishan, not Chang'an City, you don't have to be too taboo in front of me, a seven-foot man and a big man, you should express your heart and be free and easy in the world."

Zhang Yang touched the stubble on his chin, "Your son thinks about Lishan all day long about contributing to his court, and he also urges Lishan to produce all day long, and uses this place as his money bag, do you say that Your Majesty is like that?" ”

Hearing these words, Li Yuan was speechless for a while.

Zhang Yang said again: "You still want to go to Xue Yantuo to deter the Turks?" Now the Turks are already trembling in front of the Tang Dynasty, and even Ashinadul, the only fighting force of the Turks, was sent to the Western Turks by me, and this person is freezing in the Western Turks. ”

"Even if your son is counting on Lishan to lay eggs, he actually said the words of increasing manpower to increase production, and he doesn't understand technology and comes to point fingers, if I am the emperor, I will give a good beating with a stick now, so that he will sober up under the stick."

Li Yue also smiled when he heard this.

Anyway, what Tian Khan's father wanted to say, Zhang Yang drank a sip of tea after saying it in one breath, "Well, express your heart." ”

"Actually, Erlang is not without merit." Li Yuan tried to save some face, but after listening to what Zhang Yang said, he didn't know what kind of advantages his son should say.

After being speechless for a while, Zhang Yang stood up, "Our family will go back to Chang'an City first, and then come to see your old man another day." ”

Li Yuan nodded contentedly.

Xiao Wu and Xu Hui had already packed their luggage to take back to Chang'an, most of them were some clothes, and the furniture at home in Chang'an City was complete.

You don't need to prepare for it.

Xu Hui and Xiao Wu got into the carriage, Zhang Yang helped Li Yue into the carriage, and then handed the stroller to her, so that she didn't have to hold the child all the time.

Aunt Yang confirmed that nothing had fallen, and then closed the courtyard door.

The carriage slowly drove towards Chang'an City.

At this moment, in Chang'an City, the rest of the court is about to end, and the residents who left Chang'an City in the middle of winter are also returning at this time.

Now Chang'an is the most lively time.

Pei Xingjian is also accustomed to the days here, he walked on Suzaku Street with his servants, eating a small cake bought on the street, "I heard that this cake was opened by His Royal Highness King Wei." ”

The servant replied: "The rumors are true, but no one has ever seen His Royal Highness King Wei come forward in that shop. ”

There are a lot of rumors in Chang'an City, these days Pei Xingjian will often go to Hongwen Hall, and ask the people there about the changes in Chang'an City now, since His Majesty ascended the throne, what has happened in Chang'an City is very interesting.

The novel rumors satisfy the curiosity of this high-spirited young man.

Pei Xingjian said curiously: "They said that now His Royal Highness King Wei has lived in Lishan for a long time, and he has not returned to Chang'an City for a long time, and he has not even returned to this year's Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

The servant replied: "The matter involves the prince, and the little prince should talk about it less." ”

"This King of Wei is the same age as me, and I heard that he has been messing with Zhang Yang." Pei Xingjian was still talking about the prince.

The domestic servant also replied helplessly, "King Wei was quite talented when he was young, and many people say that His Royal Highness King Wei and Zhang Yang abandoned their talents after walking together. ”

"I don't think so, if the King of Wei really wasted his talent in Lishan, His Majesty will not let the King of Wei stay in Lishan, as for what is in Lishan, there must be another reason."

In the eyes of the servant, the little boy has a very high heart and quick thinking.

is too arrogant in words, this kind of pride is not a good thing for the little son, how to become a talent without experience, this is also what the head of the family instructed when he came.

There are many rumors of Zhang Yang in Chang'an City, and there is a mysterious King of Wei, and there is also Lishan who has not seen his true face.

These are the things that Pei Xingjian is most concerned about now.

The servant instructed: "The little boy should prepare for the imperial examination, it is already February, and the imperial examination has been held for less than three months." ”

"It's time for Brother Xue to come to Chang'an City." Pei Xingjian was still talking to himself.

All the way to the post house where he temporarily lived in Chang'an City, there were many people preparing for the imperial examination, there was a guy named Wang Xuance, he was from Luoyang, he drank and fought with people yesterday, and he was being interrogated by officials at the moment.

Wang Xuance beat him to a Tubo man, and two years ago, Lu Dongzan came to make Princess Tang Shang but was rejected by Tian Khan.

Now that Tibet has surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, it is rumored that this Songtsen Gampo is going to build the Potala Palace.

It's when the morale of the people in the Guanzhong is high, and it's not a big deal to beat a person outside the Guanzhong.

But Wang Xuance was not beating someone else, but an envoy sent by Tubo.

This time, Lu Dongzan did not come to Datang, but he still sent a messenger to congratulate him.

If it weren't for the diplomatic relations between the two countries, the government wouldn't have bothered to inquire at all.

Listen to the opinions of these officials, and inform the Foreign Affairs Yuan of this matter, so that the Foreign Affairs Yuan can handle it.

Pei Xingjian heard the three words of the Foreign Affairs Yuan again, and he asked in a low voice: "Last time, many people who entered the imperial examination were also sent to the Tubo and Anxi Protectorates. ”

The servant replied: "The little boy is full of talent, and he will not be sent to the outside of the gate. ”

On the other side of Chang'an City, when the family returned home, Zhang Yang took the two girls and started cleaning.

The bear cub was patrolling the area to see if its territory had been trodden by other small, eyeless creatures.

Li Yue put the child in the cradle, and then sorted out the clothes at home, prepared the spring clothes, washed and dried.

There are still many things to arrange when coming to Chang'an City, Zhang Yang walked into the hospital with a bag of rice, "Let's go to Qujiangchi early tomorrow morning to have a look." ”

Li Yue was still washing his clothes and nodded, "Well, take the child to take a look, Qujiangchi is also our family." ”

"Trouble Auntie to bring a message, let Xu Jingzong come to Qujiangchi at noon tomorrow."

Aunt Wang bowed down and said, "Oh." ”

Today's sky is still good, Li Shimin walked out of the Xuanwu Gate and came to see this wasteland again.

The eunuch beside him understood that His Majesty was still thinking about building a pool of liquid, and a little eunuch came in a hurry and whispered on the side.

After listening to the words, the old eunuch whispered: "Your Majesty, the news just sent to Zhang Shangshu and Her Royal Highness the Princess has returned to Chang'an City and brought the children with them. ”

The emperor finally had some smiles on his face, and the eunuchs smiled heartily.

"When he has a child, he has a concern." Li Shimin turned around and walked back to Xuanwu Gate, "As long as you hold his child in your hands, I'm not afraid that he won't give in." ”

The eunuch followed all the way without saying a word.

No one knows what His Majesty is thinking in his heart, if you want to talk about suspicion, your Majesty is now guarding against Changsun Wuji.

The emperor's heart is like this, and Tian Khan is suspicious of anyone, including the young Zhang Yang.

Back in the palace, Li Shimin was still thinking about how to control Zhang Yang.

The seal of her father's Emperor Wude was handed over to this newborn little princess, and she was born with her father's care.

It can be regarded as a link between the royal family and Zhang Yang.

Li Shimin sat down in the Ganlu Palace, "When this child is five years old, let the queen accept him as a disciple." ”

"Whoa."

The will soon spread out of the palace.

In the evening, Zhang Yang sent Xu Hui home, this girl had been homesick for a long time, and Li Yue also allowed Xu Hui to go back to his house to live for some time.

Xu Hui led the way, passed through the alleys, and pointed to the closed courtyard gate, "This is my home." ”

The house looks very simple, and the wooden doors are mottled with time.

Xu Xiaode is not a wealthy person, so he rented an old house in Chang'an City to live temporarily.

Zhang Yang knocked on the door, and the voice came from the courtyard.

It was a woman who opened the door, and Xu Hui smiled playfully, "Mother, this is Master." ”

"Hui'er." With a smile on her face, the woman hugged Xu Hui.

Xu Xiaode also walked to the door, "I don't know if Zhang Shangshu is here, I should go to greet him." ”

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said, "We have an old friendship, so we don't need so many courtesies." ”

Xu Xiaode was still wearing an official uniform, and took out two brushes with a slight salute, "This is a good lake pen sent by my hometown, and I ask Zhang Shangshu to accept it." ”

A few brushes at home have been around for some years, and the lake pen has always been a good study pen, which enjoys a good reputation in the Central Plains and is quite precious.

Most of the literati sent pen and paper, and it was not easy to refuse, Zhang Yang accepted the brush and said with a smile: "Xu Hui has been homesick for a long time, so I sent her." ”

"In the past six months, Her Royal Highness Princess Lao and Zhang Shangshu have taken care of her, and the house has not been cleaned up for a long time, so the lower official will let the housewife make tea."

Walking into this house, you will see an old house with not much furnishings, a well, and a wooden table with two or three stools.
