Chapter 20: Li Kuan, King of Chu, Who is it?

Early morning.

The sun is rising.

As soon as the officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Yamen arrived, some of them were taken to Du Chuke.

"Du Shangshu, there are about twenty people gathered now, what do you want us to do, should you say it?!"

An official of the Ministry of Industry couldn't help but ask.

Du Chuke looked around and found that the people he wanted to call were almost all there.

Ladies and gentlemen,

It was all identified and considered by him, and it could be determined that he was loyal to the Li Tang royal family.

"That's right, this morning I took the liberty of asking you to put down what you were doing, and to come over, because there is an important matter to discuss."

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes,

Du Chuke slowly opened the Luban lock drawings he got yesterday and looked at them one by one.

"This ...... This is!!! ”

Sharp-eyed officials immediately found that it was architectural drawings, and it was different from their usual construction.

He picked up the drawings and looked at them carefully, his eyes widening and his face excited.

"This is, this is the Luban lock!!"

"It is the legendary Luban lock construction drawings, which ...... Du Shangshu, you ...... Where did you get this? ”

The voice fell.

The other officials were shocked.

"What! Luban lock? But the lost Luban lock?! ”

"This ...... This is the real Luban lock, the legendary Octopus buckle, which was built like this. ”

"Amazing, if the ordinary construction method is explored with this drawing, it will be more solid and reliable."

"Du Shangshu, why do you have the lost Luban lock in your hand?!"

Many officials were talking.

"Haha, this is what the old man was fortunate enough to get from Her Royal Highness the little princess, as for how she got it, the old man can probably know that Xu got it from the mansion of Li Kuan, the king of Chu."

Du Chuke laughed, his heart excited.

"Li Kuan, King of Chu? Who are they? ”

"I don't know, it seems...... Looks like His Majesty's second prince? ”

"Huh? Is His Royal Highness the Second Prince His Royal Highness Li Kuan? Wait, Your Majesty, does he have this child?! ”

Many officials of the Ministry of Industry were extremely puzzled.

Du Chuke was secretly frightened, there were very few officials who even knew about Li Kuan, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu seemed to be really low-key, and he had no sense of existence.

And it was such a person who had no sense of existence, doing things that he didn't expect.

"Okay, let's not talk about His Royal Highness the King of Chu."

"I called you here today because I have a great matter to discuss with you."

"Haven't we been preparing a plan for the construction of Daming Palace recently? I am ready to overturn and start over, overturn all the previous architectural layouts, and use the Luban lock technique to build the Daming Palace. ”

Du Chuke stated the purpose of today.

According to the original process, the Daming Palace was built after the completion of all important works.

But in the midst of this,

They can prepare architectural drawings first and determine how to build in advance.

Originally, it was ready, and the drawings were sealed.

The reason why it is said to be sealed.

It is because there are too many fortifications at hand at present, and Datang is in ruins, and it will take at least two or three years to complete the fortifications at hand.

The construction of Daming Palace, at least at this point in time, will be pushed back.

"What? Reversal of the original plan? Du Shangshu, this must not be, that plan was determined by our Ministry of Industry for two months, and with the permission of His Majesty, it should not be overturned!! ”

"Yes, all dynasties have been built in accordance with that, I don't think Luban lock should be used, after all, Luban lock has been lost for a long time, just gotten, and there are many construction techniques that we don't understand, we used it on Daming Palace for the first time, which is disrespectful to Your Majesty."

"That's right! Besides, this Luban lock can't be known if it's true or not, Du Shangshu should remember to think twice before acting!! ”

"Du Shangshu, I think the Daming Palace is immutable, the Daming Palace is too important, we can use the Luban lock technique in other buildings."

"From the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who does not understand the method of craftsmen, whether the Luban lock is true or false is debatable."

Voices of doubt came like the sea.

Almost no one supported him Du Chuke.

Faced with a lot of doubts, Du Chuke snorted coldly.

"Wait, is this the crystallization of distrusting the craftsmanship of your ancestors? Luban lock is regarded as a craftsman's treasure, and now it is lost and recovered, and it is the most suitable to apply it to His Majesty's Daming Palace!! ”

"As for what you think, the first time you are unfamiliar, Daming Palace is not built on the same day, and there are at least two years of time left for us!!"

"You are all the most outstanding craftsmen in my Ministry of Industry, and also the most outstanding craftsmen in Datang, now the drawings are in hand, all kinds of annotations are very clear, two years, is it not enough for you to learn the Luban lock technique?!"

This......

The officials of the Ministry of Industry were scolded and had nothing to say.

An official of the Ministry of Industry thought for a moment and stood up and said, "Indeed, we should not doubt the treasure of our ancestors. ”

"It's just that Lu Ban locked it too abruptly, so it is not appropriate to overturn the Daming Palace plan that we originally prepared for several months, Du Shangshu, I think we should focus on the original plan, and then try to explore the Luban lock technique, and when it is determined that the Luban lock technique is no problem, we will replace it."

"No way!" Du Chuke shook his head and said very firmly: "The Luban lock technique must be adopted, and the Luban lock technique summarized by the ancestors is irreplaceable and powerful." ”

Since I have seen the underground space of the Chu Palace, all of them have adopted the Luban lock technique, and Du Chuke was born, and the future Daming Palace must also be like this.

He wants to be, the creator of the Daming Palace!!

After a discussion full of saliva, after half an hour, the officials of the Ministry of Industry finally agreed to Du Chuke's idea.

Who made him the secretary of the Ministry of Industry?!

meantime

In my heart, I was extremely curious about His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who was inconspicuous and inconspicuous.

Who can get lost for hundreds of years? Even a centuries-old Luban lock!!

But come to think of it,

Li Kuan, the king of Chu, selflessly dedicated to Luban Suo, is not greedy for money and returns, and must be a masterpiece in the world.

…………

The Lu family's mansion.

Early this morning.

A family head with five surnames and seven wangs gathered here.

The first to come was the head of the Li family in Longxi, and the last one arrived half an hour later, and he was the head of the Boling Cui family.

"I'm sorry, everyone, I'm getting old, and I'm oversleeping before I know it, and I'm looking at Haihan."

The head of the Boling Cui family, although he was the oldest family head present, nearly seventy, still apologized to each family head with an apologetic face.

He's older,

But there are also elders in other people's families, but they just abdicated.

And his Boling Cui clan is still led by him, a septuagenarian, from which you can also spy that he is not connected.

Apologize one by one.

After seeing the representative of the Lu family, the head of the Boling Cui family was slightly stunned.

Not the head of the Fan Yang Lu family.

He was a fifty-year-old man wearing a hat, squinting eyes, a kind face, and his hands were hidden in his long sleeves.

"Master Cui, this is the temporary acting head of the Lu family, okay, I know that you have a lot of questions, and I will answer you later."

"Now, let's talk about it first, who is Li Kuan, the king of Chu? Why is all the food of the Li family Erlang taken out from his mansion!! ”

The head of the Li family in Longxi was extremely puzzled.
