Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1714
Hearing Su Cheng say that meals have been prepared, Cheng Chumo, Changsun Chong's eyes lit up.

In fact, although they are the supervisors who live outside, the food is not bad. After all, it is between Chang'an and Luoyang, and it is not so desolate. With their identities, they can eat meat every day, and even bring live sheep to kill. eat now.

For ordinary people, being able to eat chickens, ducks and sheep first is considered a very rich meal, but for Cheng Chumo and Changsun Chong, who are of high status, it is far from enough.

Compared with the delicacies in their mansion and the delicacies in Chang'an City restaurants, the mutton and chicken cooked on the construction site tasted the same.

Compared with the food in Su Cheng's mansion, it is far worse.

Although they were looking forward to the thunder and lightning from the generator, but judging by the weather, there was still a little time before the sun set, which was enough time for them to have a big meal.

"Food ready? That's great!" Cheng Chumo said pleasantly.

Yuchi Baolin shouted: "You don't know, what kind of pig food are we eating these days! Birds are coming out of our mouths!"

Li Chongyi said loudly: "My stomach is growling with hunger. What are you waiting for? Let's eat quickly. After eating, we can see how the generator sends out lightning!"

While ordering people to set up a banquet in the hall, Su Cheng asked suspiciously: "The pig food you eat? How did I hear that you not only have chickens and ducks but also live sheep on the construction site? You even have knives and wine?"

Cheng Chumo waved his hands and said: "It is true that there are chickens, ducks and live sheep, but there are no strong cooks. They are all boiled in big pots or roasted. Isn't it the same as pig food?"

Yuchi Baolin nodded repeatedly and said: "Compared to the food at your house, it is pig food! What chicken, duck and sheep are not as delicious as a plate of tofu at your house!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Okay, go eat, and stay with me for tonight."

After eating, they waited to test the generator. Cheng Chumo and the others didn't want to go back to the city today, so they could only stay here.

The aroma of the food in the hall had already wafted out, Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin and the others cheered and poured into the hall, and then they couldn't wait to gobble it up.

They galloped all the way back to Chang'an, and only ate a little dry food on the way, and they were already very hungry by now.

At this moment, even eating the food on the construction site is delicious, not to mention eating the real food of the Rongguo Mansion, they really want to swallow it with their tongues.

Just as Cheng Chumo and the others were eating and drinking, the sound of horseshoes sounded outside the Duke's Mansion, and Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang entered the Duke's Mansion heroically.

They are regular visitors to the Duke's Mansion, so they naturally know that Su Cheng is making electric lights, and they also learned from Princess Changle that Su Cheng will use a generator to test tonight, so they also rushed over.

As soon as they entered, their eyes fell on the small steam engine and generator that had been connected together.

"Is this the generator you want to make?" Princess Zhenzhu looked at it with piercing eyes, but her face was somewhat puzzled.

This weird looking machine was a bit different from what she had imagined, it was a machine that could emit lightning, it was not an exaggeration to call it magical.

In her mind, the golden light should be very majestic and graceful, why does it look ordinary, even a little ugly?

Su Cheng smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is the generator."

Princess Zhenzhu pouted slightly: "It's different from what I imagined, can this thing really send out lightning?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "It's not lightning, it's electric current. That's exactly what the generator looks like. Why, what should the generator look like in your imagination?"

Mengsa Chijiang smiled and said: "It should be very delicate, very beautiful, inlaid with precious stones, shining golden, it is a treasure at first glance."

Su Cheng smiled and said: "It's not impossible to do what you said. If you can't, you can add some decorations, engrave beautiful patterns, plate a layer of gold, and inlay gems. The problem is that it's useless. This is a machine. , just to generate electricity.”

Princess Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang were a little speechless after hearing this. It is true that this is a machine, and it is also a machine that can produce lightning. It is not too much to engrave beautiful patterns, gold-plated and inlaid with gemstones. It's just a tool that doesn't care.

The afterglow of the sun was dissipating, and Princess Changle, Princess Yuzhang, and Wu Jue walked out of the backyard one after another.

"When did you come? Why didn't you come in?" Princess Changle asked with a smile.

Princess Zhenzhu smiled and said, "We have just arrived too."

After saying hello, Princess Changle and the others set their eyes on the machine on the ground. Although they all knew that Su Cheng was making a generator, this was the first time they saw a generator.

Princess Yuzhang asked with a strange expression, "Is this the generator?"

Princess Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Do you think it looks too ordinary?"

Princess Yuzhang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, it can create thunder and lightning. I thought it would be very big and mighty."

Su Cheng shook his head slightly and laughed: "The generator is to be installed on the locomotive to generate electricity and light. If it is too big, how can it be installed on the locomotive?"

The truth is true, but when they think that this machine can emit lightning, they will feel that the generator must be very extraordinary.

Just as they were talking, there was the sound of horseshoes outside, and this time the sound of horseshoes was very intensive.

Zhenzhu and Mengsa Chijiang looked up in astonishment: "I'm afraid there are hundreds of riders? Who is here?"

When Su Cheng heard the voice outside, he couldn't help but move in his heart: "Such a big commotion, could it be that His Majesty is coming?"

Princess Changle pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It is very likely that when I entered the palace today, I mentioned to the queen mother that I would test the generator today."

As soon as Princess Changle finished speaking, she saw Feng Jia entering the Duke's Mansion, and beside Feng Jia was the emperor riding on a tall horse.

Not only Li Shimin came, but also Empress Changsun. Of course, Prince Li Zhi was also indispensable.

Su Cheng and others hurried up to meet them.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, Greetings to the Empress, and Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"I've seen my father, I've seen my mother!"

"I don't know that Your Majesty and the Empress are coming, and I'm not far away to welcome you!" Su Cheng walked in the front and cupped his hands.

Cheng Chumo, who was eating and drinking in the hall, was startled when he heard the movement outside, and they all ran out to greet him.

"Let's all be excused!" Li Shimin got off his horse.

Li Shimin's eyes did not stay on Su Cheng and the others at all, but looked around for traces of the generator.

"Where is the generator? Where is it hidden?" Li Shimin asked suspiciously.

Because the generator was behind Su Cheng and others, Li Shimin didn't see it.
