Chapter 572: Li Zhao's Credit
"Ruined?" The emperor's mood was really moody, and he became irritable after only a few breaths, "You can destroy such a thing, and if you destroy it, you will destroy it." β
Mood drops slightly.
It's really ruined that's what he thinks, anyway, it's unrealistic to let Li Zhao take it out, so give up!
After hearing this, Li Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the emperor would pursue it, but after all, the emperor was still understanding.
"Okay, the court meeting is about to start, you rarely have time, so let's go to the court!"
At this moment, Li Zhao has no substantive official position, so naturally he doesn't need to go to the court, in fact, he has never needed to go to the court, and only goes to the court when the emperor summons him, which is equivalent to being summoned by the emperor at this moment, so naturally he can't refuse, although there are still many things to do.
Before setting off for the next minister, he told Shen Gongzi to do a lot of things, such as the oil refining workshop, did he refine the first barrel of oil? When I came back, I heard from my uncle that the emperor had ordered someone to exploit a large oil field, but for some reason it had not yet been transported to Shanglinyuan.
But it doesn't matter, even if the oil refining workshop has been opened, the supply in Pei County is still enough for the time being.
The matter of the oil refining workshop is still to be reported by Shen Gongzi, but according to the speed of Shanglin Yuan, it should be fast, and there is also the internal combustion engine, and when he left, he also gave Ah Chao the secret book of manufacturing the internal combustion engine, which must have been in progress.
The internal combustion engine is a revolution of the times, and it is really difficult to make it in a short time, but he believes that those craftsmen, as long as they have enough time, will definitely make it.
Once the first barrel of oil has been refined and the internal combustion engine has been developed, the next step is to build a car.
The court meeting is in the main hall of the secret palace, and the originally empty hall has become golden and brilliant at this moment, which is much more heroic than the Zhangtai Palace.
At this moment, the emperor sat on the throne, and Zhu Qing stood with a two-foot board and arched his hands, and the atmosphere was so solemn.
"Do you have something important to do?" This is the emperor's opening remarks, everyone is no stranger, it was Xiao He who was the first to stand up and said, "Your Majesty, congratulations, after the workers start construction day and night, it will take another month to complete the Afang Palace." β
When these words came out, the princes talked a lot, and they were full of joy.
Everyone has heard that Afang Palace is full of pride, and the palace is nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, and it is built according to Li Zhao's vision, which can be said to be different from Xianyang Palace.
"It only takes a month to finish? Great, I can settle in Xingong in a month, which can be described as my blessing for Daqin. The emperor was overjoyed, and stood up and sat down again and again, and his temperament was not very calm.
This phenomenon is rare.
Then his eyes fell on Li Zhao, and he chuckled: "Thanks to Li Zhao, this is a great achievement, and it should be knighted." β
Zhu Qing has no objections, it is really Li Zhao's credit should be given to the knight, you must know that the reconstruction of Afang Palace is handled by Li Zhao, and the court does not need to spend a penny, it is all built by Li Zhao with the financial resources of Shanglin Yuan, which can be described as the highest credit.
And I heard that the layout inside is very good, all of them use the latest gadgets of Shanglin Yuan, and they are ready to use tap water and electricity, which is very grand and convenient.
Although they have not seen tap water, but since the construction of Afang Palace, Shanglin Yuan also began to build a workshop called 'tap water', I heard that this workshop uses the water of Zhushui, as if it has been treated and then used, which is very convenient.
I had only heard about it, but I had not seen much of it, so I was looking forward to it.
As for electricity, don't say it, everyone who came to Shanglin Yuan has seen it, it is very peculiar, if this electricity appears in Afang Palace, it will be what kind of situation it will be, no one can imagine.
"What do you think should be bestowed?" The emperor asked.
Since moving to Shanglin Yuan, Li Zhao has rarely given knighthoods anymore, and at this moment he is the title of hairpin, which is inconspicuous among some meritorious officials.
In fact, judging from Li Zhao's official position and title, it is indeed inconspicuous, if it is not supported by major merits, I am afraid that he is just an inconspicuous businessman.
Of course, he doesn't care about these, with the emperor as a big backer, even the prime minister has to give him a lot of face.
Of course, the position of prime minister is still vacant, and many things in the palace are handed over to Feng Zai and Taiwei, as for whether the emperor will be promoted to prime minister, no one can guess his thoughts.
"The minister thinks that he should be knighted." Xiao He bowed.
When these words came out, the audience sighed, and everyone gasped.
It must be known that since Shang Ying's reform, only Shang Ying, LΓΌ Buwei, Wang Jian and others can achieve this position, and they all won the knighthood by virtue of great merit.
Isn't it time to take it one step at a time?
In fact, there is another idea in everyone's mind, that is, Li Zhao is a businessman, how can he be a high lord? Of course, this is also due to everyone's consistent bad impression of Li Zhao.
According to the merit, he escorted the emperor during his eastern tour, guarded Xianyang, created the Great Qin artifact, and pacified the rebellion, plus the Afang Palace at this moment, this merit can be compared with Wang Jian and others.
The emperor didn't know what to think, so he glanced at everyone and said no more. This approach is a bit inexplicable, but everyone knows that this is an expedient measure of the emperor, and Li Zhao will be given the title afterwards, so I don't know what the title is, and everyone's faces are different.
"What else is there to do? If not, retreat! β
The emperor was about to wave his hand to retire from the court, but there was a person who came out of the ranks, it was the Tai Lieutenant, his face was solemn, he walked forward slowly, and handed it forward with a fold in his hand.
Shang Xin took the fold and respectfully held it to the emperor.
When the emperor saw it, he was immediately furious, and the sound shook the entire hall.
"The Huns are small, and they dare to offend my Daqin, they should be punished."
