Chapter 283: The breath came to his face
Fang Cai Du Ruhui was all about potatoes and didn't notice this, but after taking off his cotton clothes, the coolness in the air was particularly obvious, so he noticed this.
In order to confirm this, Du Ruhui walked out of the main hall without saying a word, and sure enough, a hot breath came to his face.
Du Ruhui returned to the main hall and said with a look of surprise: "Your Highness, what's going on with your main hall?" ”
"It's much cooler than outside!"
Qin Shou blinked, and said with an innocent expression: "Because I have placed a lot of ice cubes in the main hall and in each side room." ”
With that, Qin Shou walked behind the screen and pointed, "Nuo, it's here." ”
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling walked towards the location that Qin Shou was pointing to, and saw the ice cubes piled up into a hill behind the screen.
Qin Shou touched the tip of his nose, pointed to a few screens and said, "There are also ice cubes behind those screens, which is why it's so cool." ”
Qin Shou, who sits on Saltpeter Mountain, can be described as "wealthy", and he is not stingy in making ice cubes, in order to ensure Fang Yaoyi's comfort during pregnancy.
Qin Shou asked his soldiers to dig up a lot of saltpeter and make it into ice.
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling didn't care about their posture, and hurriedly ran to several other places, and after seeing the same mountain of ice cubes, the two of them were completely numb.
Just standing near the screen, you can feel the cool air that flows into your heart.
But what surprised the two of them the most was that the amount of ice was too much.
And looking at Qin Shou's attitude, it seems that this bit of ice is not surprising.
At this moment, the servant slowly came to the hall with a wooden basin that chilled the happy water of the fat house.
Seeing that this ice cube was only used for ice wine, Du Ruhui's body froze.
Waste, too much of a mother's waste.
You must know that even the current saint is not so extravagant, so many ice cubes, how much financial and material resources must be spent to transport it from the north!
Du Ruhui's eyes were red, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, how many silver taels have you spent on this ice cube?" ”
Qin Shou thought for a while and said, "I don't want money." ”
Du Ruhui frowned.
Don't want money.
Isn't that just taking bribes?
But after thinking about it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is definitely not this kind of person, but with so many ice cubes in front of him, he really can't figure out what is going on.
Qin Shou was puzzled: "Isn't it just some ice cubes?" Why are adults so surprised? ”
Isn't it just some ice?
Du Ruhui almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.
Even when the palace is hot every year, the ice cubes are saved, not to mention the officials, even the prince and princess can only get a small part.
Isn't it just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said?
Du Ruhui asked, "Where did you get this ice cube from?" ”
Qin Shou shrugged his shoulders and said, "I made it myself." ”
And on the other side of the palace.
Li Shimin looked at the ice cubes that had just been transported to the imperial city and fell into deep thought.
After receiving the ice cubes, Empress Eldest Sun chuckled and said, "Erlang, do you want to send some ice cubes to Yu'er?" ”
"Now that Yi'er is pregnant, this hot summer season, I have to make her live more comfortable."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "I have this intention, tomorrow you and I will also go to see them by the way." ”
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen Nini, a little girl."
Datang: It's a showdown, I just want to eat and wait for death.
This night, Du Fang and the others discussed Qin Shou's proposal for a long time.
In the end, the three of them couldn't discuss a detailed countermeasure, and several people were a little drunk at this time, let alone discuss anything.
When a few people were in high spirits, they actually met to play the piano and sing.
Qin Shou had added some attribute points to his craftsmanship before, so even if he played the piano at this moment, he would not be far behind.
Fang Yaoyi coaxed Nini to sleep at this time, and also slowly came to the courtyard, and said with a chuckle: "I remember that at the Ruoshui Poetry Conference, my husband taught Fan Er a tune, and now it is popular in Chang'an. ”
"I wonder if my husband will have a new song in the near future?"
Du Ruhui also echoed: "Speaking of the tune of "When Will the Bright Moon Exist", it is completely different from ordinary songs, but for some reason it is particularly deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. ”
Qin Shou chuckled and said, "If it's a tune, I know a lot. ”
In order to pretend to be forced in music one day, Qin Shou still purchased a lot of piano songs in his study, and when he was fine, he read one or two.
I have sporadically memorized the music of a few modern songs.
After listening to Qin Shou's words, Du Ruhui and the others also came to the front with wine.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Qin Shou also sat down calmly, he settled down, and began to stroke the piano with full concentration.
The tune of "Song of the Night" is clear and melodious in the night.
Du Ruhui gently tapped the wine glass with his fingertips along with the melody, and when the song ended, Du Ruhui took a sip of wine and sighed: "This song has a melodious tune, if you sit on a moonlit night in a mountain stream, listen to the sound of birds in the stream, and use this song to accompany it, you really don't envy the immortals." ”
Fang Xuanling also had an aftertaste, taking a sip of a thousand gold drunk, and his mouth was fragrant, and he felt even more comfortable.
He squinted at his daughter and son-in-law, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile.
When Yi'er gives birth to an heir, he will be considered complete.
Fang Xuanling thought so, and secretly congratulated himself on his original decision.
Fang Yaoyi looked at Qin Shou with a slight smile and a soft expression.
"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've heard my husband play."
Qin Shou said with a smile: "If Mrs. likes to listen, I can play the piano to you every day in the future." ”
"Tut-tut, I'm dead, I'm dead." Du Ruhui laughed heartily, raised the wine cup and said, "The two of you should wait until our two old guys leave before they are affectionate, eat and drink." ”
In the middle of the night, Du Fang and the others staggered out of the palace of King Yu and got into the carriage home.
Early the next morning.
Qin Shou asked his subordinates to dig out the ice cubes full of two ox carts from the ice cellar and cover them with a thick cloth.
After talking with Du Ruhui yesterday, Qin Shou realized that there was a shortage of ice in the hot summer of the Tang Dynasty today, so he planned to send some ice cubes to the palace.
By the way, I asked my father to toss the saltpeter mountain.
Otherwise, when he popularizes gunpowder to the world in the future, this technology cannot be hidden, and it must be dedicated to the imperial court.
Since you can't do research and development, it's better to be a raw material supplier, as long as you monopolize the raw materials of gunpowder, you can "blackmail" your father at that time.
However, the father emperor who has the saltpeter mountain in his hand is also his competitor.
Therefore, Qin Shou made up his mind to use the ice-making technology to fool Li Shimin, so as to consume the saltpeter in Li Shimin's hands.
And the other side.
Li Shimin was proud, he looked at the eldest grandson with a smile and said: "Guanyin, did you say that the child has been so hot that I don't know where it is?" ”
"But iM'er, this kid has such a fortune beast as a wine shop, I don't know if he will pay a high price to buy some ice cubes."
Empress Eldest Sun, as the pillow person who has been with Li Shimin for so long, how could she not guess His Majesty's current thoughts.
Since Li Shimin found the child Yu'er, it seems that he didn't get any good money from Zhen'er, but he was robbed of the small treasury.
