Great Tang princess

Chapter 87

All those present were veterans of the battlefield, so it goes without saying that the significance of the binoculars was so important, and soon they discussed with Li Zhi the issue of equipping the army.

"Your Majesty, do you know the cost of this item?" Liu Rengui asked, "If the cost is low, it will be a great weapon for my Tang army!"

Li Zhi shook his head slightly: "I heard from Chen'er that it is not expensive, but it is relatively troublesome to make."

Pei Xingjian took over the conversation: "According to my opinion, there is no need to equip too much equipment, just one commander and one scout each!"

"That makes sense," Li Zhi nodded. "In this way, the loss rate can be reduced. At least it's better not to let the enemy seize this item..."

When a group of people were discussing, Qixin Heli asked carelessly: "Your Majesty, if this thing is combined together, wouldn't it be possible to observe with both eyes together? It will be much more convenient!"

But Li Zhi smiled: "If it's really that simple, I don't think Chen'er will make it into such a style."

He actually thought about this issue from the beginning, but considering that his daughter has always been very smart, he shouldn't be stupid about this kind of thing.

So as you can imagine, binoculars are definitely not as simple as putting the two side by side.

……

While a group of people were discussing there, Li Yuechen also ran to the craftsman supervisor, intending to see the effect of the leaf spring.

Now the frame has not been installed with wheels, and it is placed on the ground. The carriage has been connected to the frame and a leaf spring has been installed.

Li Yuechen turned around the edge of the carriage and jumped into the carriage.

Then he stepped on his legs hard, and shook them from side to side a few times. Not to mention, there was indeed a slight shaking feeling.

The rest is to see if it is feasible after installing the wheels.

Li Yuechen walked around the carriage, feeling that the balance of the car body was done very well, so he turned his head and extended a thumbs up to the craftsmen next to him: "Not bad!"

All the craftsmen breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliment."

With a satisfied smile on his face, Li Yuechen jumped out of the carriage with a sideways flip, and left with Fulai first.

Judging from the current progress, it should be done before Li Zhi's birthday.

As soon as he walked out of the workshop, he saw a middle-aged man in linen clothes walking over quickly.

Seeing his serious expression and hurried steps, Fulai subconsciously stood in front of Li Yuechen.

The man stopped in front of him and saluted respectfully: "I have seen Her Royal Highness, Eunuch!"

"You are?" Li Yuechen poked his head out from behind Fulai and asked.

"Return to Your Highness, Anu is from a gold and silver workshop, and the item His Highness asked for has been made." The visitor replied respectfully.

The "A Nu" here does not mean a slave. During the Tang Dynasty, the word slave had many meanings.

It can be used to scold people, but it is also a kind of modesty, like "I am" or "I am".

"Oh?" Li Yuechen's eyes lit up, "Go, go and have a look!"

Li Yuechen was in a good mood when he heard the news. If the bearings could be made in this period, then Li Zhi's carriage would definitely be better.

When I came to the gold and silver workshop, before I went in, I saw Wang Gangdan, whom I had seen last time, standing at the door, walking back and forth nervously.

Seeing the princess coming, he subconsciously wiped his hands on his clothes, and saluted respectfully: "Xiao Lao has seen Her Highness the Princess!"

"Exemption!" Li Yuechen raised his hand, "Have you made the utensil I want?"

Wang Gangdan stretched out his hands cautiously: "Please take a look, Your Highness!"

Fulai took two steps forward, took the things in his hand, and handed them to Li Yuechen.

The four small bearings lay quietly in Fulai's palm, shining slightly in the sun.

Li Yuechen picked up one of them, looked at it, pinched it with two fingers, and then flicked it lightly.

Seeing the bearing spinning rapidly in his hand, a happy smile appeared on Li Yuechen's face, and two small dimples were looming on his face.

After stacking the four bearings, the sizes and specifications are exactly the same, just like industrial assembly line products.

Li Yuechen was surprised: "How do you make them the same size?"

"This... the little old man did it according to his usual experience."

"Okay!" Li Yuechen nodded and waved to Fulai.

Fu Lai understood, took out a small silk bag from his bosom, took out a golden bean and handed it to him.

"Give more!" Li Yuechen waved his hand, "I should reward you for making this thing!"

Hearing what she said, Fulai took out several more and handed them over.

Wang Gangdan thanked Dade for his salute: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward! Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward!"

Li Yuechen raised his hand to make him stand up, and carefully observed the bearing in his hand.

The only pity is that these bearings are too small, only one centimeter in diameter, and it is impossible to install them on the carriage.

Li Yuechen asked: "I'm a little curious, how did the iron balls get polished to such a size?"

After explaining, I realized that it turned out that it was ground like this by holding a little bit with tweezers.

After listening, Li Yuechen had to admire this kind of patience. After thinking about it, he decided to send him a magnifying glass in two days.

"They've been made in such a size, and bigger ones should be fine." Li Yuechen said, "Go to the craftsman's supervisor, measure the size of the wheels of the carriages that are being made there, and make four more!"

"Here!" Wang Gangdan agreed.

Just about to leave, Li Yuechen suddenly asked, "Do you have any heirs or apprentices?"

"His Highness, I have two sons and a daughter."

Li Yuechen nodded, and said with a serious face: "Your craftsmanship is very important to me... no, it is very important to Datang, but don't break the inheritance!"

"Yes!"

……

Back in Anfu Hall, Li Yuechen sat in the Linbo Pavilion, staring at the small bearing in his hand in a daze, thinking about what this thing could do.

Shangguan Wan'er watched with wide eyes, "Your Highness, what is this?"

Li Yuechen turned his head and smiled: "See what you think, for me, this thing is the future of Datang!"

"The future of Datang?" Shangguan Wan'er's big eyes showed a look of doubt, feeling confused.

Seeing her cute appearance, Li Yuechen couldn't help but patted her head: "You will understand in the future!"

After that, I didn't bother to continue talking about this topic, so I changed the topic and talked about other things.

At this time, a little Taijia suddenly came to Anfu Hall and said something to Fu at the door.

So Fulai came over to pass the message: "Your Highness, His Highness King Pei is outside the Xihua Gate."

"Oh." Li Yuechen agreed, and waved to Shangguan Wan'er, "I'll go, you can go and play with the two elder sisters."

As he walked out, he complained about the complicated rules of the royal family.

My second brother couldn't come in directly even if he asked me, it was really troublesome to death.

Then he thought in his heart, watching TV dramas before, it seemed that his father and mother hooked up in Taizong's harem.

Li Zhi's strict regulations are not to prevent similar incidents from happening to him again, right?
While making complaints, he came to Xihua Gate, and saw Li Xian who seemed to be impatiently waiting, walking around with an irritable expression on his face.

Li Yuechen trotted two steps to come to the front: "Second brother, but something happened?"

"There's a big deal! Let's go!"

Li Xian said while pulling her to his carriage.

After getting into the carriage, Li Yuechen sat down: "What's the matter?"

"Three missing one!" Li Xian said.

"..."

Li Yuechen almost fell over. Seeing you in a hurry, you thought something was wrong. After a long time, there was no one to play mahjong?
Speaking of which, Li Yuechen taught him the word "three missing one".

"Isn't it just right for the four brothers? Why do you have to come and call me?"

Li Xian raised his eyebrows: "The crown prince is so busy, how can Yuechen not know? Besides, with the big brother's personality, can he play well?"

Li Yuechen thinks about it too, Li Hong is actually good everywhere, but he is a bit young and mature.

In fact, it is also understandable, after all, he started learning to supervise the country when he was eight years old, and the vitality of the young man has long since worn out.

Although he is very good to his parents and brothers, he always looks serious, like an old man most of the time.

Regarding this, Li Yuechen could only shake his head in his heart to express his pity.

All the way to Prince Pei's Mansion, Li Xian and Li Lun were already waiting here. They were sitting in the courtyard drinking yogurt, and beside them were a few singers dancing to the rhythm of the music.

As soon as Li Xian entered the door, he grabbed a cup of yogurt and drank it down, then smacked his lips: "Okay, Yuechen is here too, let's start!"

As he spoke, he waved his hands to let the dancing singers back down.

"Yuechen needs to be merciful today." Li Xian said as he walked in, "This thing was made by you, I'm sure it won't be as good as it is."

"Brother, if you want me to release water when playing gambling games, is that still interesting?" Li Yuechen asked back.

Li Lun next to him nodded: "Yes, I will do my best."

Li Xian opened the wooden box, and it all fell on the table with a "crash", "Yuechen, if you lose today, you can't renege on it!"

"Brother, don't worry, little sister can't say anything else except that she is rich!" Li Yuechen said with a smile.

It's no secret that she opened a store, and almost everyone knows it.

The four brothers and sisters sat down and started immediately. Fulai and others waited on the side, serving tea and water.

While playing, several people also chatted.

Li Xian looked depressed: "I really don't understand why my mother would allow Chen'er to open a shop, but not allow me to wait."

"It's easy!" Li Yuechen played a card, "As long as brother becomes a woman, he can be like me."

"Even if you become a woman, you can't do without Yuechen's intelligence." Li Xian said.

Li Lun was quite open-minded: "As princes, we naturally can't do business business, besides, Yuechen is working for the welfare of the royal family, and the parents will naturally agree."

There is no problem with what you said, after all, although Li Yuechen's shop is said to give [-]% to the royal family, it is actually a big deal.

She didn't put the remaining [-]% in her pocket, but basically used it to expand production.

Li Hong and his brothers knew about these things, and it was Li Zhi who told them.

I just don't want to cause unhappiness between the prince and princess because of this matter.

In addition, the relationship between the brothers and sisters is also very good, so there is no misunderstanding.

Li Xian said that this is just a simple complaint, and has no other meaning.

The four brothers and sisters chatted while fighting, and the topic quickly changed.

"The last time I went to Nanshi, I saw Yuechen in your daily chemical shop. Why did someone from Xinluo become the shopkeeper?" Li Xian was puzzled.

"That's a slave I bought. I thought she could speak Tang dialect, so I let her take care of it." Li Yuechen replied.

Li Xian thought for a while: "Brother, I think it's better to send a maid to be close to you. If the slaves you bought deceive you, it will be troublesome."

Li Lun also nodded in agreement: "It makes sense, and it's more reassuring for people close to it to use it."

In Li Yuechen's view, this kind of worry is completely unnecessary, but it is normal for them to think so.

The children of the royal family have been well-clothed and well-fed since childhood, and their experience in employing people is often cultivated since childhood.

For outsiders or bought slaves, I always feel that I don't know the basics, and I don't feel comfortable putting them in an important position.

"No problem." Li Yuechen smiled, "Anyway, Wang Xiang from the canned shop is his own person, so he can supervise each other, and besides, I calculate the accounts myself."

Hearing what she said, Fulai who was next to her bowed slightly, thanking her for the compliment.

"If I can be as smart as Yuechen, I don't have to be afraid of being deceived." Li Xian shook his head, "It's a pity that I will go to a fief in the future. I can't settle accounts. If I am deceived, maybe I won't know."

"That's right, I don't feel at ease using outsiders, and I'm afraid of becoming bigger if I use my own people..." Li Xian played a card, "It gives me a headache just thinking about it."

Li Yuechen smiled and said, "You can't be biased in the open way, so you can manage it with others; you can't live alone with a heavy responsibility, so you can guard it with others. As long as you can use it for both relatives and friends!"

Li Xian next to him murmured and repeated, his eyes lit up: "Well said! Where did Yuechen hear this?"

"this is not……"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the smile on Li Yuechen's face suddenly froze, and the movements of his hands stopped completely, as if he had been cast in a freeze spell.

"Huh?" Seeing her suddenly froze, the three brothers looked up at her suspiciously.

But at this moment, Li Yuechen felt goosebumps all over his body!
Isn't this what Taizong said in "Emperor Fan"?You don't know?
Didn't daddy order it for all the princes to read last time?You don't know?
How the hell don't you know?
Li Yuechen suddenly froze in place, his hands trembling slightly.

If they didn't know, it meant that Li Zhi's order was false!Those two books are most likely just for yourself!

Aren't my two sisters...

Thinking of this, Li Yuechen suddenly shook his head and calmed down, no, Li Zhi should be very clear about this.

Li Yuechen knew that it was impossible for him to hide everything he did in Anfu Palace from the couple, so they would not be ignorant of the fact that he had shown the two books to the two sisters.

But so far there has been no action, which means that he should not care.

But in this case, what is the point of showing yourself these two books?
Why do you have to lie to yourself that all the princes want to see it, not just for yourself?

What are the two of them suspecting...

It wasn't until this moment that Li Yuechen realized that for so many years, he had foolishly thought that he was pretending to be good, but in fact he had always been in his father's routine.
