Master Jiang nodded when he heard this, "Well, it's a very interesting idea, and the old man didn't think about it before. ”

Zhang Yang took out a thread and a small wooden wheel, and explained: "Master Jiang, please look, the smaller the contact surface of the wheel, the faster the speed. ”

"The stability of the wheels is related to the speed, so it is necessary to adjust the width, a good direction, and the old man will consider it."

Zhang Yang and the master talked about the principle of the drawings before and after.

The Tang dynasty is in its infancy, and this land has nurtured countless people and established dynasties.

The heavens are indeed favoring the Tang Dynasty, and I originally thought it was the dry season in Guanzhong in May and June, but it was rare to see rain.

Zhang Yang wore a hat and walked on the ridge, and the rain rustled in the field.

The rain was not cold, but brought plenty of moisture to Guanzhong.

Zhang Yang pinched up some soil and looked at the soil particles carefully, and suddenly smiled and said to himself: "Hehehe...... The heavens are taking care of the heavenly khan, how is this Datang not strong. ”

A fast horse neighed in the village, and the three hippos carried the Red Whisk Girl all the way out of the village.

Then, Li Jing and the Red Whisk Girl came back.

The two of them wore cloth clothes and helped each other to dismount, and this life seemed to return to the scenery of the rangers in the past.

Zhang Yang retracted his gaze and saw a group of children returning home in the rain and continuing to take steps on the ridge.

Sometimes it's interesting to think about this world and the way of the world.

Maybe you don't have to do anything, this Datang will still be very strong.

Or maybe he did this, just to make Datang's strength come earlier.

There have been many dynasties in the Central Plains, but there are not many powerful ones.

Zhang Yang returned home and played chess with his daughter-in-law in his spare time, and then the couple sat under the eaves and watched the rain in a daze.

"Do more things, this Datang has to be good."

Hearing what her husband said, Li Yue smiled and said, "Let's go back to our small home in Chang'an and have a look." ”

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and see it tomorrow." ”

Princess Runan and the county marquis are not trapped in Lishan, they can go back to Chang'an City to see, and they have only no interest in the disturbances in the world after living in Lishan for a long time.

Live a life like an immortal, and don't eat the fireworks of the world.

The feats of Lishan are becoming more and more bizarre in the Chang'an market.

The couple did not let the two aunts accompany them, and they needed to take care of Xiao Qingqing and Xin'an.

Li Lizhen, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Hui want to help Lishan deal with various matters.

The couple can also take a tour and see the changes in Chang'an City now.

After walking around, Li Yue frowned and said, "This Chang'an City is the same as it was back then. ”

Zhang Yang took her hand and whispered: "Chang'an City still has changes, there are more people, it is more crowded, you see that the Anyi Fang here has been rebuilt, and it was still a ruin before." ”

"Huh? There are also many people living in them. ”

"There are also Yipingfang, Shengpingfang."

Li Yue said again: "There are a lot of people over there. ”

"That's Chongde Fang."

"Check it out."

Coming to a wine shop in Chongde Fang, there are many scholars and students here discussing the current situation.

The couple dressed modestly, sat down in the wine shop, and asked the servant here for two bowls of millet and a plate of mutton.

Zhang Yang instructed: "Another bowl of meat soup." ”

"Guest, we have some good trotters here."

"Huh?" Li Yue said curiously: "Now Chang'an City also sells pig's trotters?" ”

Xiao Wu explained: "This little lady doesn't know, or someone from Lishan who has come up with a secret recipe for removing the smell of pork. ”

Li Yue smiled: "My husband and I can't eat so much. ”

Zhang Yang cleared his throat and said, "I want a little pig's trotter." ”

The little guy nodded with a smile and went to do something.

The ears were full of scholars and students, and they had endless words at the dinner table.

Zhang Yang explained: "Ding Yu is now a teacher in a technical college, he hasn't cooked for a long time, and he is teaching others. ”

Li Yue sat upright with her hands in her hands like her husband and frowned, "So that's the case." ”

The couple also talked about the prince between words, and soon caught the eyes of the people at the next table.

The woman wore an ordinary woman's hair in a bun, and she was dressed modestly, but she did not talk like an ordinary woman.

is more like a woman from a high-ranking family, but her simple clothes make people feel that they can't be connected with the high-ranking family.

Her husband smiled very easily, and his words often made his wife smile.

The world is just right, and such a husband and wife who complement each other are very enviable.

The days don't have to be too good, they are ordinary, and the husband and wife can stay together for a long time, which is not what everyone yearns for.

A pig's trotter was on the table, Zhang Yang clamped it with chopsticks, and the pork was separated, and he nodded with satisfaction: "The heat of this pig's trotter is good." ”

Li Yue picked up the bowl and picked up the chopsticks, "Well, I'll taste it." ”

Zhang Yang picked up a piece of pork and put it in her bowl.

This intimate gesture made the female customers in the store blush.

Li Yue didn't care, she was used to it.

After eating a meal, three or two officers and soldiers came, and the leader of the officers and soldiers was Zhao Jie, who was led by the right of the East Palace.

Zhao Jie arched his hand and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites the county marquis and Her Royal Highness the princess to go to the East Palace to talk. ”

At this time, the identities of the two were known in the wine shop, the wife was a princess, and the husband was a county marquis.

Soon people were reminded of the couple in Lishan, the princess was the princess of Runan who was the famous lady of Chang'an City, and the county marquis was the marquis of Lishan County who had made great contributions but had not yet entered the Lingyan Pavilion.

However, some people think that the husband and wife in front of them are not the two in Lishan.

The two people of Lishan are like immortals in Datang, and it is rumored that they will not go down the mountain.

His identity was exposed, and he was a little disappointed, Li Yue asked in a low voice: "Zhao Jie, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince okay now?" ”

"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, everything is fine in the East Palace."

Hearing that there were already people talking about it around them, the couple was a little annoyed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come to disturb Yaxing, so they could only leave first.

There were officers and soldiers to escort them, and the couple walked smoothly.

Li Yifu walked around with Yuan Gongyu in Chongde Fang, and saw a couple escorted by Zhao Jie.

When he saw Zhang Yang, he was stunned at first, and then saw the other party nodding with deep meaning in his eyes.

Li Yifu also nodded and understood the meaning, so he pretended not to see it and continued to interrogate the little guy in front of him.

No one else noticed this scene, but Yuan Gongyu saw it.

When the people were far away and the interrogation was over, Yuan Gongyu couldn't help but be curious and asked, "The couple who were just escorted by officers and soldiers...... Li Shaoqing acquaintance? ”

Li Yifu snorted coldly: "What are you asking about? ”

Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, Yuan Gongyu hurriedly saluted, "It's too much of a mouthful." ”

The couple walked into the Suzaku Gate and then walked to the East Palace.

Zhang Yang's pace slowed down, and Li Yue's footsteps also slowed down.

"Nothing has changed here." Li Yue's gaze scanned the surroundings.

"The prince seems to have a lot of eyeliner, and as soon as we arrived at Chongdefang, we sent someone to invite him."

"Yes, it seems that a lot of effort has been put into Chongdefang."

Zhao Jie listened to the conversation between the husband and wife, his expression became more and more embarrassed, and it was indeed a little presumptuous to think about it carefully, maybe Her Royal Highness the princess and the county marquis just didn't want to be disturbed.

When they walked to the East Palace, Li Chengqian and the crown princess Su greeted them in the East Palace.

Zhang Yang and Li Yue saluted, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Li Chengqian and the crown princess also saluted.

"How is the royal brother doing?"

Li Chengqian replied: "It's been good lately, it's lonely and presumptuous, you husband and wife rarely come to Chang'an City, but you come to disturb alone." ”

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said, "It's okay." ”

Li Yue took the crown princess's hand and asked for warmth, and soon talked about how to teach the child, just because Li Xiang, a child, was too dull and not as smart as Xiao Qingqing.

However, Li Xiang of the East Palace is not like Li Zhi and Xiao Zi, who can come to Lishan to learn art.

As the prince's sister-in-law and eldest son, Li Shimin did not let him go to Lishan to learn art.

Li Chengqian is now the prince, so Li Chengqian's children will also be the prince in the future, and the rules between the three generations must be done well.

Li Shimin didn't want the future emperor to be a disciple of Lishan, which was not good for the imperial power.

All in all, Li Shimin's defense against Lishan has never been relaxed, especially in the area of the prince and the prince.

Even Li Ke had little contact with Lishan.

The couple followed the crown prince and the crown princess into the east palace.

Several people sat down, and the prince greeted the two couples with a high standard of etiquette.

Speaking of the days when I accompanied the prince to study, the time back then is still so interesting when I think about it now.

Li Chengqian sighed: "Recently, my father and the prime minister discussed with the prime minister to streamline the six departments of the DPRK and the Central Committee. ”

Zhang Yang smiled: "Good thing. ”

"But ......" Li Chengqian's face was embarrassed, and he said in a low voice: "If you want to streamline the various departments, the first thing to bear the brunt of is the Ministry of Rites, the current Ministry of Rites is too large, and its personnel are more complex than the Ministry of Officials." ”

Zhang Yang drank the tea of the East Palace and sighed: "It was I who single-handedly rebuilt the Ministry of Rites, and the original functions of the Ministry of Rites were actually very simple, but at the beginning, because of the presence of several forces in Tubo, Tuyuhun, Gaochang, and Turkic, I set up a lot of manpower inside and outside the Ministry of Rites, which will lead to the current situation. ”

"At the beginning, the Ministry of Rites made a lot of meritorious contributions, and Lone also saw it, and the father was also hesitating, if he wanted to cut the staff of the Ministry of Rites at this moment, he was worried about affecting the confidence of the courtiers."

"So my father met Xu Jingzong once, and wanted him to enter the Zhongshu Province, so that he could also comfort him, as long as Xu Jingzong left the Ministry of Rites, things could go much smoother in the future, and Zhang Daxiang was transferred to the Ministry of Officials, and he considered serving as a waiter."

"Zhang Dasu was a native of Dongtai in his early years, and now he has been in the Ministry of Rites for many years, and he has a lot of records in the foreign chronicles of the Guanguan, since Xu Jingzong is destined to leave the Ministry of Rites, his father is considering the candidate for the next secretary of the Ministry of Rites."

"As for the current manpower of the Ministry of Rites, my father hopes to keep it, and in the future, except for Wen Sanlang, no one else will be allowed to recruit privately."

Zhang Yang put down the tea bowl in his hand and said with a smile: "Zhang Da'an." ”

"Brother Daan?"

At that time, Da'an also served in the East Palace, and Li Chengqian knew him very well, and said: "Da'an...... He recovered Goguryeo, and the credit for governing Liaodong was enough to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but he was too young to think that if it wasn't for Di Zhixun to preside over the situation in the Hexi Corridor, he should have been the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”

Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "Di Zhixun is only presiding over the situation in the Hexi Corridor, and he is not familiar with the diplomatic relations of various countries, Zhang Da'an is the most suitable, as for the classics in the palace, it is most suitable to serve as the secretary and supervisor." ”

Zhang Yang said all the arrangements of Zhang Daxiang, Zhang Dasu, and Zhang Daan.

It is very likely that Li Shimin asked the prince to ask these words, since Li Shimin wants to drastically streamline the six ministries of the court and the central government, so as to avoid the court officials in the future will be too redundant.

It's best to have a knife with the Ministry of Rites.

Li Chengqian asked: "Have you already considered streamlining the Ministry of Rites?" ”

Zhang Yang nodded, "When the Anxi Protectorate was completed and Goguryeo recovered, there was an idea of streamlining the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites is the Ministry of Rites, which should not be too complicated. ”

"You are so open-minded, you can afford to take it and let go of it, you should drink." Li Chengqian said to the attendants on the side: "Bring the wine." ”

Zhang Yang hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I have been quitting alcohol recently. ”

"You are the same age as Lone, why did you quit drinking early?"

Zhang Yang explained: "In fact, it is to prepare for the next child, it has been two years since the birth of my son, and now the two aunts in the family are urging me to be tight, and recently my husband and wife are recuperating their bodies." ”

Hearing this, the crown princess Su covered her mouth and chuckled.

Li Chengqian kept his mouth shut, not wanting Zhang Yang to say it so bluntly, so he could only smile and say: "It's lonely and presumptuous......"

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Li Yue said again: "Let the imperial brother laugh." ”

Li Chengqian couldn't help but nod and said, "It's okay, it's okay, you husband and wife are still young, and you should have a few more children." ”

also said some homely things, Li Chengqian has always slept badly recently.

Zhang Yang suggested: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should exercise more, as long as you exercise a little in the prime of life, you don't need to drink the decoction, and drinking too much decoction is a burden on the body." ”

"What you say is extremely true, Lone will pay attention."

The couple said goodbye and left the East Palace, and the crown prince and the crown princess Su sent each other until they were sent to the Suzaku Gate.

The couple has a great affection for the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in poor health since he was a child, and after Zhang Yang's suggestion, the prince's health has improved.

And if a lover eventually becomes a family, and the prince can get married smoothly, Princess Runan and the county marquis have spent a lot of effort.

After meeting Zhang Yang, Li Chengqian walked into the Ganlu Hall and reported to his father.

Li Shimin looked at the file, "Isn't it too presumptuous for me to ask you to invite this couple to meet?" ”

Li Chengqian bowed and said, "Father, the sons and daughters originally wanted to see their husband and wife. ”

"Well, you name it."

"Whoa."

Li Chengqian told the conversation in the East Palace.

"Well, it turns out that he has long had the idea of streamlining the Ministry of Rites, why didn't he send a chapter to the court a few years ago."

Li Chengqian helped explain: "Maybe Zhang Yang left the Ministry of Rites early, so it's not good to ask again." ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and said, "You stand down." ”

"Whoa."

After saying a few more words, I was displeased again when I heard my father's tone.

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Li Chengqian walked out of the Manna Hall in a daze, and the rights and wrongs related to Zhang Yang could not be easily mentioned.

The contradictions between the father and Lishan have accumulated over time, and they can not be resolved in a few words.

In Chang'an East City, the small alleys in the south have also come to life, and they have a new name called Yongning Fang.

It's not as deserted as it used to be, the moss on the ground has been shoveled, and occasionally three or two children run through the streets.

When he came to an old mansion, Zhang Yang stretched out his hand to push the door open, and the old door creaked. (End of chapter)
