Chapter 503: I almost died laughing

Li Yue put his gaze back on the drawings, "Are these still going to burn?" ”

"Burn it, it's all in my head."

The drawings were lit with the flames of an oil lamp, and watching the flames devour the drawings little by little, Li Yue put it into a brazier until it was burned out.

This is the cost of self-protection, and it is also the biggest reliance of Lishan in the future.

When it was night, the two little girls were tinkering with the ice cubes sent from the palace, they smashed the ice cubes and made smoothies for themselves.

Zhang Yang hugged his daughter and coaxed, and instructed: "You two eat less, if you eat too much, you will have stomach trouble." ”

Xu Hui and Xiao Wu saluted again and again, saying that they knew.

Who's childhood is not yet a gluttonous time.

Looking at his daughter's face again, he whispered: "Will Dad make a cannon for you to play with in the future?" ”

Xiao Qingqing closed his eyes sleepily, and there was no squeak.

Zhang Yang said again: "Dad will think of a way to make you two earthen guns!" Let's go hunt rabbits, shall we? ”

Xiao Qingqing still didn't answer.

Li Yue covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard this, "It's time for her to sleep." ”

The summer night was quiet, and there were people in Chang'an City who stayed awake all night, and the compass given by the prince was repeatedly removed and put back many times.

"No matter how you look at it, there's just a few things."

The oil lamps were running out, and the flames were flickering and extinguishing.

Yan Liben raised the wick of the oil lamp, lifted his spirit, and carefully examined it, the structure of this object was so simple that it was outrageously simple, a compass, an iron needle interspersed with a compass, and then this pointer with two sharpened ends and one red painted end.

What kind of method is implied in this thing?

It was said that Lishan could share some of its technology with the Ministry of Industry, but since last year, Lishan has stopped contacting the Ministry of Industry.

So far, I have obtained the drawings of the flush toilet, the design of various tables and chairs, the water wheel, and some of the workshops in Lishan, and nothing else.

Yan Liben was disappointed, and as for the real mystery here, he had no way of knowing, so he still had to talk to Zhang Shangshu again.

Sun Fujia in Dali Temple in Chang'an City has insomnia, since the fourth year of Zhenguan, several unsolved cases have not been solved until now, and the recent case of the disappearance of the messenger finally has a clue, but the other party can always quickly cut off contact.

The clue is broken, and the Dali Temple is helpless up and down.

It seems that the movements of the entire Dali Temple are also mastered, if the other party is not a master who anticipates things first, otherwise they have their internal response in Dali Temple.

Tubo territory, starting from Chang'an City, trekking for a month, Songtsen Gampo came back, he looked at the scenery in the distance, several officials sent by the Tang Dynasty were riding horses and grazing with the people in the tribe, chatting happily with a smile between words.

"The people of the Central Plains adapt very quickly in our Tibet."

After speaking, Lu Dongzan was silent for a long time and did not answer.

Songtsan Gan pulled the reins, "You are the great minister of Tubo, your current behavior is what Zhang Yang wants, he humiliated you, and even trampled you on the ground in front of the whole Chang'an people, he just made you no longer have fighting spirit, no longer have the heart of confrontation with the Tang Dynasty." ”

Lu Dongzan slowly raised his head, "The plateau is not invincible to the people of the Central Plains, Su Dingfang entered the Tubo realm, and the Tang Dynasty had the heart of scheming, which is not only Zhang Yang's purpose, but also the plot of Tian Khan." ”

In the past, Tubo was entrenched on the plateau, and no matter the Central Plains and the Western Regions, they did not dare to attack.

Now that the secrets of the Tibetan Plateau have been revealed, the only barrier has disappeared, and it is easy for Tian Khan to enter and control Tibet if he wants to enter Tibet.

"In the past, even if Tubo and the Central Plains went to war, even if they were defeated, they could retreat to the plateau, as long as the back road continued, Tubo could slowly wear down the enemy, Zampu!" Lu Dongzan raised his head and sighed: "Zhang Yang has long known that the plateau is not invincible, but we are too proud and rely on the plateau too much. ”

In the past two years, the Foreign Affairs Yuan of the Tang Dynasty has continuously sent people to Tibet, and even the children of many big ranchers have officials of the Foreign Affairs Yuan around them.

Songtsen Gampo let the horse walk slowly, "There are many military generals in the current Tang Dynasty, even if there is no Zhang Yang, Tubo really wants to fight to the death with the Tang Dynasty, we may not be able to win, Tian Khan is very strong, but now it is very strong." ”

Lu Dongzan lost the confidence to look directly at Zhang Yang, and he lost his original arrogance.

At this moment, he only had his body left, and the spirit of being the great minister of Tubo was completely gone, from the loss of the Tubo Plateau to the fact that he was held on the ground by them in the diplomatic court, he was gone from that moment on.

The original arrogance and confidence, as well as the determination to dare to compare with Datang, can no longer be picked up.

He said stupidly: "Zampu, is there a day when Tibet will rise again? ”

Songtsen Gampo said with a smile: "The current Zhangyang scenery is temporary, and it may not be able to live for a long time. ”

Did Zampu really believe him? He said that he would be seriously ill at the age of thirty, can he believe this? ”

Songtsen Gampo said: "Of course I can't believe it, but in the past three or two months in Chang'an City, I have made many friends, and there are many people who want to remove Zhang Yang in the Central Plains, and many people want to kill him, even if he can live past the age of thirty, those people will not let him go." ”

"Who?" Lu Dongzan asked subconsciously.

"This man acted arrogantly and quarreled with the Heavenly Khan several times." Songtsen Gampo saluted in the direction of Chang'an City, "I admire the tolerance of the Heavenly Khan, his mind is like this vast world, and he can tolerate such a person without a monarch or a minister. ”

"But not everyone has such a mind, the court officials of the Heavenly Khan rule Qingming, but the Central Plains is complex, the forces are intertwined, we don't need to do it, sooner or later someone will deal with Zhang Yang, now everyone is afraid of the Foreign Affairs Yuan, and the countries of the Western Regions dare not disobey the arrangement of the Foreign Affairs Yuan, they are only afraid of Zhang Yang who eats people and hungry wolves."

"What they are afraid of is never the Heavenly Khan who will be lenient to others, as long as Zhang Yang dies, the Western Regions Tubo, Turkic, and even Mobei will have a chance to recover."

There was still no light in Lu Dongzan's eyes, "Zampu pinned his hopes on others? ”

Songtsen Gampo frowned and said, "Tubo needs the guidance of a wise man. ”

"Is Zampu talking about Tang Xuanzang?"

"He's one of them."

Lu Dongzan's eyes were a little more nervous, "Zampu, there is a rumor in Chang'an City that Tian Khan thought that the growth of Buddhism was the cause of misunderstanding the country, and he forced the monks to return to the world, get married and start a family, the prosperity of Buddhism is not beneficial to the Central Plains, and Tian Khan knows the stakes." ”

Songtsen Gampo said in a deep voice: "I know everything. ”

"Even if he knew that it was poisonous, would Zampu still insist? The wrong road taken by the Central Plains, why did Tubo go! ”

Lu Dongzan shouted loudly, "Zampu, you are confused! This road cannot be taken, Hugh must listen to the demagogy of the envoy of the Foreign Academy, and I will kill him!" ”

Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan drew his sword angrily, and was just about to ride his horse up, he realized a very serious problem, and he was stunned in place and trembled with anger but did not dare to step forward, these days the officials sent by the Khan, and even the merchants of the Central Plains could not move.

But if one dies, with Zhang Yang's ruthless and vicious heart, he will definitely send troops to attack Tubo again, and with the first time, it will be easier to attack Tubo the second time.

These people can't move, even an ordinary person who came out of the Central Plains can't move.

The Foreign Affairs Yuan acted decisively, and a country and a city were destroyed when they said they would be destroyed.

A huge shadow hung over Lu Dongzan's heart, and he was in pain, shouting as if he was crazy, "Zhang Yang! The great wicked man in the world! ”

The loud shout alarmed the sheep in the distance, and at this moment, the light in Lu Dongzan's eyes was extinguished a few points.

More than hundreds of miles east of Tubo is the Hexi Corridor, from the Hexi Corridor to the east through the Longxi boundary, and then through Chang'an City, in the east of Chang'an City is Lishan.

At this moment, the villagers who have just harvested the grain in Lishan are busy again, and they want to contribute to the construction of their village's factory.

The new factories will be relocated to the other side of Lishan and will be several times larger than before.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, took Niu Chuang, Shangguan Yi Wushi Tong and some technical backbones of Lishan, and they were discussing the improvement of the new assembly line.

The previous assembly line had to be scrapped, and the process and production method had to be changed.

Li Tai held the drawings one by one, some of the equipment on the drawings are very large, and some are as fine as inches, and understanding the drawings is also a necessary skill as the backbone of Lishan.

Although it was not as fast as King Wei's mastery, everyone also studied hard.

This also makes several workshops in Lishan have a good learning atmosphere, and they have always been reading and reading in Lishan, regardless of men, women and children, and the elderly must follow their children to learn literacy from scratch.

With the completion of the expansion of these factories, Lishan's productivity will reach a new level.

At this moment, by the Weishui River, there is a table in the shade of the tree, and Zhang Yang is writing on a roll of paper.

Li Shimin was very disgusted with Zhang Yang's unsightly handwriting, and all the officials of the court Chinese had calligraphy attainments, which were either high or shallow...... The handwriting is also pleasing to the eye, only Zhang Yang's words are unsightly.

The emperor turned his head away from looking, as if he would be blind at a glance.

He was holding the Luban lock in his hand, frowning, and was thinking of a way to crack it.

Distracted, Li Shimin looked at the calm water surface of the Weishui River, "Are you going to write a book again?" ”

Zhang Yang put down his pen and dried the ink, "Your Majesty laughed again, where do I have the ability to write books, I just write a few stories I heard when I was a child." ”

"Your three books, the Red Mansion, the West Chamber, and Liang Zhu, were all spurned by the people of the Shi clan." Li Shimin is still having trouble with this wooden shelf, that is, Zhang Yang's toys for children, the exquisitely conceived Luban lock.

"Your Majesty doesn't know, I heard a lot of stories when I was a child, some stories are touching, some stories are unsettling, my daughter is growing up day by day, I want to tell her these stories."

"What's this story you're writing now?"

"Your Majesty, compared to the creatures of the world or the abominable ghosts, these are nothing, the human heart is the most terrifying."

The pen in Zhang Yang's hand continued to write, "Come and write and talk about Zhai, see the warmth and coldness of the world, and the sinister hearts of people, how is this unpleasant?" ”

"I don't dare to agree with these words of yours, I think that children should read the books of sages when they are young, give correct guidance, and establish the character of a gentleman, so that they can do something in the future."

As he was talking, Li Shimin finally couldn't stand it anymore, he put this Luban lock on the table, "How to untie this thing?" ”

It's meant to be played with children, and if you're an emperor, don't say steal children's toys, you can't crack the toys when you take them.

Zhang Yang hung the ink on the paper, "Even children's toys have to be snatched by skill, and Your Majesty is not a gentleman." ”

"You tell me how to crack it, and I will give it back to the children."

"It's fine." Zhang Yang put down the pen in his hand, picked up the Luban lock, first looked at it, pinched its two ends, and pulled out a target from the side.

Under the emperor's astonished gaze, the Luban lock suddenly fell apart, and wooden strips of different lengths were scattered all over the table.

"How did you do that?" Li Shimin asked with a glare.

"There are a total of thirty-six wooden strips here, and there are six buckles, if Your Majesty wants to understand the principle, you can try to put them together."

Zhang Yang first rolled up the paper on which the story was written, put it into a bamboo tube, and said: "It is very difficult to complete the Luban lock, and there are many ways to splic, I don't recommend Your Majesty to try it." ”

"Wait, you might as well let me try."

Li Shimin picked up a wooden strip and tried to splice, but after several attempts, he couldn't even use the button.

In front of his son-in-law, the emperor's face turned red, and his hand holding the wooden strip trembled.

Zhang Yang walked aside, "Princess, our salted duck eggs are all pickled, do I want to send you some." ”

The prince smiled and saluted, but did not agree in front of the emperor.

Zhang Yang said again: "Lao Wang, you have more white hair than black hair, and you should also pay attention to your body while taking care of Your Majesty." ”

Finally! The emperor couldn't bear it anymore, and with a wave of his sleeves, he swept all the wooden bars to the ground, and then lifted the table and left angrily.

No one could stop the emperor's willfulness, and he wanted to try but was annoyed.

Zhang Yang sighed with emotion: "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, so uncertain. ”

The prince picked up all the wooden sticks on the ground, "These are returned to the county marquis." ”

Zhang Yang took the wooden strip with a smile, held his hand and said, "Lao Wang, you are a lot old, why don't you come to our Lishan?" Look at the good mountains and rivers here, and how suitable the retirement village is. ”

"If the old slave comes to Lishan, won't it cause chaos for the county marquis."

"Don't say that, you are in charge of the inner palace, and the little eunuch in your hand is not even eight hundred but also a thousand, and you have arranged everything in every way, Lao Wang! We lack people in Lishan, especially the lack of such management talents, with your management experience is really our Lishan lack of right-hand man. ”

Lao Wang smiled embarrassedly, "Don't hide it from the county marquis, there are only more than one hundred eunuchs in the palace, how can there be eight hundred and one thousand, and there is no need for so many servants in the palace." ”

"Really?"

"The old slave has gone to accompany His Majesty."

Zhang Yang scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed, what Lao Wang said was not unreasonable, Datang is boosting the population, how can it be possible to let so many people be eunuchs, and do you want the population.

Population is productivity, and the emperor will not fail to understand.

Holding a bamboo tube in one hand, Zhang Yang walked by the roots of the village and thought about how to dig up Lao Wang, this old eunuch was too loyal to His Majesty.

Li Tai was cleaning up the wheat field, "Brother-in-law, is this something on your mind?" ”

Zhang Yang came back to his senses and coughed his throat, "I'm thinking about the development plan of Lishan." ”

"What did my father and brother-in-law say by the Weishui River just now?" Li Tai's curious little eyes blinked.

"Alas......" Zhang Yang's face was sad, "Your father actually said that he wanted to spell out the Luban lock, he was so arrogant and arrogant, he almost didn't laugh me to death." ”

Take a half-night off, and there is a chapter that will be updated in the morning (around seven o'clock), and the big brothers and sisters-in-law can read it in the morning
