Li Xiaogong said helplessly: "If this matter is known by others, most of Lishan will be impeached again." ”

"Uncle Huang is right, if Lishan wants to be a kind and charitable person, he will also be impeached, because the benefits given are more than those of the court, and the court is standing in Chang'an City, and being a bad person may not be talked about by them, but if you only do good deeds, you will definitely be impeached."

"Qingque, since you understand, why don't you persuade him?"

"Where can I persuade my brother-in-law, what's the use of worrying? Brother-in-law never suffers. ”

The blacksmith's firearm mold had been made, and it was a huge iron plate with a semicircular furrow in the middle, and Li Tai watched as the craftsmen pushed it out and looked at it carefully.

The affairs of Chashan are being injustice from the Jiangnan Wang clan, and Lishan is also shouting injustice, since both sides are shouting injustices, the DPRK and China naturally want to inquire about it.

The affairs of the court came one after another, and the emperor also felt that it was inappropriate to continue to stay in Lishan, so he packed up early and prepared to return to Chang'an City.

Xiao Qingqing rode a small car all the way to the foot of Lishan Mountain, the bicycle stopped, and tied a rope to a wooden stake at the foot of the mountain, as if tethered to a horse.

Then she climbed onto the bear's back with great difficulty and called, "Big bear, go up the mountain!" ”

The bear walked all the way up the steps, not fast and a little lazy.

"Xiong Da, when it's time for lunch, I'll go to Aunt Hongfu to learn how to do it, and you can go to the farm."

……

"Xiong Da, you have to eat more vegetables recently, and you have to lose weight like Uncle Wei Wang."

……

Walking all the way up the mountain, Xiao Qingqing talked to Xiong Da without saying a word.

The next day, at the grand court meeting in Chang'an City, Li Shimin sat in the Taiji Hall.

It was Xu Jingzong's face in the court team that was not good-looking, and after Songtsen Gampo lived in Chang'an City, he naturally became the spokesperson of Tubo in the Tang Dynasty.

As for why Xu Jingzong's face is not good-looking, it is because of what Songtsen Gampo is saying at the moment.

Songtsen Gampo wore the unique clothes of the Tibetan people, bowed down and saluted: "Dear Tian Khan, since the Tang Dynasty implemented the tax on goods in the Hexi Corridor, the people of the Western Regions need to pay a tax to buy wine, and the people of the Western Regions have to pay another tax when they bring things to the Hexi Corridor, so the people of the Western Regions are tired of raising money because of this kind of tax on goods, so they have a great burden. ”

Tian Khan was silent, and the government and China were clear about the tax on goods in the Hexi Corridor.

Jiayuguan has not yet been completed, and the customs tax opened up by the Hexi Corridor is also used for the construction of Jiayuguan, and this fortification is still Lishan out of most of the silver.

The relationship is well known to everyone, but because of the love of Tian Khan, the construction of Chengguan requires the son-in-law to help him, and everyone is not good to say anything.

This Songtsen Gampo just said this, and everyone was silent.

Whoever says bad things can say bad things about Zhang Shangshu, and he can't bear it, Xu Jingzong stood up in the court, "Tubo Zampu is worried about the situation at the border of the Tang Dynasty, is he planning to attack the Tang Dynasty again?" ”

Hearing this, Songtsen Gampo immediately saluted, "Tubo has no such intention." ”

There is a saying that there is a Zhang Yang from the Ministry of Rites, and since then, everyone who comes out of the Ministry of Rites is like Zhang Yang.

has a tough attitude towards diplomatic relations with other countries, and now the Hu people in Chang'an City are living with their necks bent, for fear that if the Ministry of Rites says a word, the Tang Dynasty will attack them.

Xu Jingzong held the wat board in his hand and said loudly: "I hope that Zampu will not talk about the Tang Dynasty politics in the future." ”

Songtsen Gampo bowed his head and made another big salute.

Then came the next messenger, another messenger who gave the Ministry of Rites a headache.

The Great Eclipse Envoy said loudly: "Tian Khan, I am willing to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, and there will be no more wars or wars from now on." ”

Xu Jingzong's face was long, if the DPRK and China really agreed to form an alliance, from then on the Tang Dynasty would have to stop the pace of conquest and stop expanding.

Chu Suiliang took the first step to stand up for the court, "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that there should be a truce." ”

It was the New Year's court, and when he was happy, Wenchen said a few more words, maybe His Majesty should go down.

But the general's face here is not good-looking, how long has Liang Jianfang been sent out?

People have not yet arrived in Persia, so to talk about an armistice, is it not all in vain.

This Zhang Yang left the court, but there were still many things about him in the court.

At that time, the Ministry of Rites was a dilapidated official residence, where is there such a big right to speak now, Zhang Yang said that the demon is really a demon, he pulled up the Ministry of Rites in five years, and has a pivotal position in the court.

Xu Jingzong still remembers the words of the king of Hejian County, even if the Ministry of Rites is unbearable, it can't be bullied.

He took a deep breath and replied, "What Chu Shilang said is inappropriate. ”

Chu Suiliang bowed his head and said: "How is it inappropriate." ”

Li Yifu also stood up in the court, "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty is helping Persia, Persia is just taking back its own territory, it is the Great Cannibals who invade the Persian land, and the Tang Dynasty is just helping them take it back, if the Great Food can hand over the Persian Gulf on the coast, the Tang Dynasty can stop it." ”

It is said that it was to return the Persian bay, which is to drive the great food back to the poor land.

This condition is that the big cannibal will not agree to anything.

Xu Jingzong stood still with his eyes closed, and he was a lot satisfied with the person Li Yifu in his heart.

Chu Suiliang's eyes looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, and seeing that Zhao Guogong was also silent, Chu Suiliang bowed slightly and walked back to the court.

Then it was a normal matter, the court meeting was not over yet, and what happened during the court meeting soon spread all over Chang'an City.

Zhang Yang is in a hurry to meet the construction period, and it took half a month for the blacksmith workshop to build a mold, because the construction period is tight, and it can only be considered in the direction of cheap and cost-effective.

I don't know if the emperor will be satisfied if it is made more simply.

Li Tai came with a volume of letters, "Brother-in-law, there is news from the DPRK." ”

And then there was silence.

Zhang Yang was worried about the cheap artillery, and thought of the flying thunder cannon of later generations, which also has a name for the conscienceless cannon.

After receiving Li Tai's letter, Zhang Yang carefully looked at the content of the letter, "This Songtsen Gampo has been in Chang'an City for so long, and he has learned a lot. ”

Li Tai sat down with Chu Mo, "Speaking of which, this Songtsen Gampo often walked around Chongde Fang last year. ”

Chu Mo was dressed in shabby clothes, and now he didn't look like the son of a general of the country.

He's completely profligate now, with an open stance.

Zhang Yang glanced at him more, "Chu Mo, when will you renovate your tavern, and you will also change into clean clothes." ”、

Cheng Chu silently picked his nose, and wiped his fingers on the cuffs of his clothes, "The place where the wine shop is already busy, how can it be clean?" ”

"It's because of the place where the wine shop is clean that it should be clean, let's plan well in the future."

"It's fine."

Cheng Chumo nodded and agreed.

Songtsen Gampo has been studying in the Tang Dynasty, as long as he stays in Chang'an and does not return to Tibet.

The Great Cannibals wanted to stop the war, also because after the death of Muhammad, the new Great Cannibal King Umar took over the entire military power of the Great Eclipse, and they did not want to continue to fight against the Tang Dynasty to stabilize the situation of the Great Eclipse.

The Persians played little role, and the Don army was left to confront the Great Cannibals.

Da Shi wanted to stop fighting, but Datang was already ready to send it.

With the current level of expansion of the Heavenly Khan, he will not stop without eating the big food.

I don't know what Li Tai and Cheng Chumo are discussing, and they don't care about the experience of exchanging married life between these two goods, Zhang Yang and Niu Chuang went to the blacksmith workshop together.

The characteristics of the unconscionable cannon are that it is simple to build, the power is not small, and the caliber is very large.

In the beginning, it could be made with a simple iron oil drum and a wooden shelf, and with some propellants, it could be used as long-range firepower.

Zhang Yang and Master Jiang talked about the composition of drawings and artillery in the blacksmith's workshop.

"I'll be able to build the primer in a few days, so I'll try to build this tin bucket first."

Niu Chuang looked at the mold he had created, "So it's much easier?" ”

Zhang Yang waved his hands, "Let's deal with it for the time being." ”

Niu Chuang lowered his voice and asked, "County Marquis, this is for Your Majesty, can we deal with it like this?" ”

Zhang Yang blinked, first pondering, and then seemed to be entangled, in fact, he was asking his conscience to be at ease, and said with a smile: "Has Your Majesty ever seen artillery?" ”

Niu Chuang touched the little goatee on his chin, and said in a deep voice with the style of a great craftsman: "I haven't seen it before, how can I talk about Your Majesty...... Hey? Has Your Majesty seen it? ”

He asked uncertainly.

Zhang Yang scratched the back of his head with his fingers, "You deal with it like this first, and I'll figure out the other materials." ”

Master Jiang never said a word when he worked, and the iron bucket needed a mold to shape, but fortunately, the previous mold was large enough.

A small caliber of a conscienceless cannon is nothing, at least it is also a cannon.

Now Lishan is making iron buckets, and only a wooden frame is used to make an angle for the iron bucket.

It's not impossible to use its practical barrels, it's just not strong enough, and it's not safe.

The emperor's opening of the dynasty was very smooth, and Li Shimin devoted himself to the great cause of social development, and there were more things in the court this year than in previous years.

Lishan

Xiao Qingqing was in her father's workshop, looking at the drawings and thinking, seeing that her father was not there at this time, she asked in a low voice: "Uncle King Jin, this iron tool is this part on the drawings." ”

Li Zhi was still sorting out the iron material and glanced back, "It's the same as the painting, it should be this part." ”

Xiao Qingqing looked outside the workshop, and saw that no one was around, and her father was not there, so she took a bamboo basket from the outside and put this iron into it, and did not forget to take a large cloth bag and stuff it into the bamboo basket, and carried it down the mountain on her shoulder.

This thing is very heavy, Xiao Qingqing rode on the bear's back, "Xiong Da, let's go to the blacksmith's workshop." ”

She could grasp the bear's big ears and make it change direction, until she reached the door of the blacksmith's workshop, and then she got off the bear's back and looked curiously at the row of large iron buckets.

This female doll is the child of the county marquis, and she has been coming here to hang out these days.

Master Jiang stroked his beard and said, "Doll, this is not the place you should come. ”

Xiao Qingqing took the primer device, and there was a thread behind this device, and asked with a well-behaved face: "Grandpa Jiang, can this be installed behind the iron bucket?" ”

Master Jiang nodded when he heard this, "Most of the time." ”

I just tried to dress, but I didn't expect this primer to be installed smoothly, and it was able to be buttoned up seamlessly.

Master Jiang's face was full of doubts, and he said in a low voice: "It turns out that Zhang Xiaozi has already arranged it. ”

Xiao Qingqing said excitedly, "Isn't this very good?" ”

"yes, it's going to be fun."

Master Jiang smiled kindly.

Not long after, Li Yuan and Li Xiaogong also came, a grandfather and a second grandfather loved this little county lord very much.

As soon as he heard that she was going to play with this big iron bucket, he immediately wanted to play with her.

Xiao Qingqing begged: "Grandpa, can I take this and use it towards Chang'an City?" ”

Li Yuan looked doting, "Of course you can, with me, who would dare to bully you in Chang'an." ”

An old man, a middle-aged man, went out of the village with a four-year-old child, and let a few guards drag the cannon, and put the wheels of the carriage on the shelf under the cannon to drag it away.

Zhang Yang and his daughter-in-law were planting vegetables in the field together, and Aunt Yang hurriedly came to report, "County marquis, Your Royal Highness the princess, the little county lord came out of the village with artillery." ”

Zhang Yang was stunned for a long time, and hurriedly said, "Hurry up and bring people back." ”

Aunt Yang said again: "I said that I was going to bomb Chang'an City, and I wanted to be with the Emperor Taishang." ”

First looked at his daughter-in-law, Zhang Yang frowned, and said suspiciously: "Your imperial grandfather is also there?" ”

Li Yue was also puzzled, and whispered, "What is the imperial grandfather going to do?" ”

Zhang Yang instructed: "Aunt Trouble takes the guards of King Wei's mansion to go, once the fuse of the cannon is ignited, be sure to retreat a hundred steps away." ”

"Whoa."

Aunt Yang whistled, and the three hippos not far away came running, and she turned over and got on the horse and left the village.

"Won't the husband bring people back?"

Zhang Yang continued to hoe the ground, "It's with the Emperor Taishang, your imperial grandfather wants to bomb Chang'an City, do you still want to pursue Lishan?" ”

Li Yue sighed in distress and said, "How will our family be good in the future, and how will this family be managed?" ”

"Don't worry, anyway, your father just wants to see artillery, and you can rest assured that your aunt is protecting you."

You can rest assured that you have an aunt and an imperial grandfather to protect you, but the whole village spoils this daughter, and she will be spoiled in the future.

Zhang Yang persuaded again: "You should also let your imperial grandfather and our daughter go out for a walk." ”

At this moment, outside Chang'an City, Aunt Yang, Emperor Taishang, and Li Xiaogong were each riding horses, and there was a little girl riding a bear in the middle, and a big iron bucket was dragging behind.

The surrounding passers-by stopped and were curious.

Li Yuan's horse didn't walk fast, and after listening to Aunt Yang's instructions, he said, "Retreat a hundred steps away?" ”

Li Xiaogong coughed and said, "The powder cartridge he created at the beginning, but the old man's arm is still a little weak, so he should be careful." ”

In this way, Li Yuan frowned, looked at the big iron bucket behind him, and had a plan in his heart.

Until the approach of Chang'an City, the news of Li Yuan's arrival was sent to the palace by the officers and soldiers patrolling the official road.

Without waiting for someone to come from the palace, Li Xiaogong had already set up the artillery, "Probably so." ”

Xiao Qingqing is still riding on the back of a bear, "Daddy's drawings are like this. ”

Li Xiaogong's hand went down the iron bucket, and he found the lead, and when he thought about the use of firearms, he understood the general idea, took out the flint and hit the lead, and the flames burned down the lead.

Aunt Yang's eyes looked at the iron bucket vigilantly, and she and Xiao Qingqing, who was riding on the bear's back, stepped back step by step.
