Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

In just this moment, Li Shimin had already thought of several scenes in his mind.

Tie small iron stones to bows and crossbows, and that scene... Killing people from a hundred steps away. Even if the opponent is wearing armor, it will be of no use. The power is many times stronger than the so-called bows and crossbows.

Even if the small iron stone is that big, can it be made bigger?
When the time comes, just use the catapult to throw it out, then...
hiss…….
Li Shimin suddenly came up with another clever move?

Dry mouth.

Eyes straight.

Heartbeat.

Backflow of blood.

Unbelievable! !
Unimaginable!!
My mother, my mother!!

this…….
Li Shimin was really scared by himself.

Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde all had extremely solemn expressions and deep eyes.

This new thing of Qin Changye is really...
Is this really Qin Changye's new thing?!

After a long time, Li Shimin regained consciousness.

He turned his head and looked at the old man next to him.

"Old man, what is this...?"

"Did Young Master Qin really make this little iron stone?"

Li Shimin's eyes were deep as he stared at the old man.

It seemed as if she wanted to find some clues from his face.

….……….…….
Changsun Wuji and others also turned around immediately.

The steward of the Prince of Chu's Palace must know the inside story.

They look forward to it.

But unfortunately, the old man took a deep breath, withdrew his gaze from the pit in front of him, and shook his head.

"Your Majesty, I am just a housekeeper, and as I said, I am only in charge of Wangyun Inn. This thing, I... I have never seen such a terrifying thing."

"If I really knew, I would definitely not dare to hide it from Your Majesty, the Queen, and you, but I... really don't know."

The old man shook his head.

There was also great surprise in his words.

Indeed, he seemed to have never seen this thing before.

only…….
I heard some noise when His Highness was about to leave, but I didn't pay any attention to it.

However, the old man didn't want to tell Li Shimin about this.

To be honest, even if the old man has never seen this mysterious little iron stone, it is definitely a core secret of His Highness.

The only people who know about this are Shen Lian and Yu Huatian, who are good at external expansion, right?

Those who believe in the Lord are not qualified to know.

The division of labor is clear.

Li Shimin looked at the old man deeply.

He knew that the old man was not lying, and the old man did not bother to lie.

He really didn't know.

Li Shimin nodded.

He looked at the big pit in front of him, raised his head, and then looked towards the yard in front.

"Let's go over and have a look!"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

He was a little excited and nervous, and he didn't know what to do with his hands.

In the West... … .
If there really is still one in this yard, then...

Gulp...
Li Shimin swallowed hard.

He couldn't imagine what earth-shaking changes it would bring to the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty will surely become the most powerful country in the future, and the shame of the Wei River three years ago will also be washed away by our own hands! !

Everything becomes simple!
Everything becomes smooth!
Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Cheng Yaojin and others hurriedly followed, and their expressions became serious.

This pit is still there.

It was like a fist, hitting them hard.

Little Sizi jumped and skipped beside Li Shimin.

Empress Changsun looked at Xiao Sizi and felt the same way in her heart. She really didn't know what to say.

I don’t know if this girl and Qin Changye have incompatible fates. How many of Qin Changye’s good things were discovered by this little girl by chance?

This time it's a small iron stone.

And the sweet potatoes and other things last time, almost all of them are related to her.

Empress Changsun shook her head.

I'm afraid that when Qin Changye comes back, this little girl's face will be in danger and she will have to suffer a few pinches on the face from Qin Changye.

Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others were also completely convinced by Xiao Sizi.

If it were them, they would definitely not be able to find that thing.

Even if the thing was right under their feet, they would definitely treat it as a stone and kick it aside.

However, imagine if it suddenly exploded when I mentioned it...
To be honest, it was Xiao Sizi who saved their lives.

In silence, everyone followed Li Shimin to the front of the yard.

The wall of this courtyard is higher than all the buildings in the villa of Wangyun Inn.

This may be to prevent peeping from outside the wall.

The door is tightly closed.

"Old man, do you have a key?"

Li Shimin looked at the old man.

The old man shook his head and said, "The key to this yard is with Redbird."

Say it.

The old man seemed to have thought of something, looked at Li Shimin, and continued: "By the way, Your Majesty, Hong Que is one of Xiao Qin's personal maids."

Red Cardinal?!
Li Shimin and Empress Changsun both narrowed their eyes slightly.

Zhangsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others were also a little surprised.

This was the first time they had heard such a name.

Something strange.

But it has a special meaning and sounds very comfortable.

I finally know the names of the people around Qin Changye. Before, I didn’t know many of them.

Apart from knowing Qin Changye's name, it seemed that... even the young man in Wangyun Inn didn't know his name.

They didn't ask either.

"That's it."

"Red Sparrow.... a nice name."

"In that case, let's forget it."

Li Shimin clapped his hands.

The old man was stunned. He didn't expect Li Shimin to be so easy to talk to. He didn't want to go in now? ?

He is a little different from His Majesty...
The old man muttered to himself.

But then, Li Shimin glanced at Li Junxian and continued, "Split it open."

When the old man heard this, he was not surprised at all, but felt more relieved.

This is the nature of your banditry, Your Majesty.

He really didn't believe that Li Shimin would not go in.

How can it be!

With such power, would Li Shimin and his old ministers give up if they didn't understand it?
The old man quietly stepped aside.

There's nothing more to say.

He knew that it would be useless even if he tried to stop it at this moment.

Anyway, our ancestors have also said that we don’t need to care where Li Shimin and Empress Changsun want to go. Just let them go.

Li Junxian drew his sword directly.

The embroidered spring knife fell.

The door lock fell.

Li Shimin pushed it open with both hands and walked in.

The yard is not big.

Just entering the yard.

There are two wing rooms, east and west, with a lobby in the middle.

It seems simple.

but…….
The layout of this yard is very different from other yards.

Scarecrows stood in a row along the courtyard wall.

Each scarecrow also has a round handle hanging on it.

In a corner of the wall, there was a small fortress surrounded by sandbags, and the ground inside had been bombed beyond recognition.

On the other side there was a pile of discarded saddles and horse stools.

Another piece seemed to be a pile of discarded coal, but this coal was different from the common coal they saw.

In short, it’s just one word: chaos!!
This yard, it seems like no one has ever cleaned it up. "This yard..."

"It seems to be Mr. Qin's trial field. Have we...have we found the treasure mountain?"

Li Shimin pursed his lips, looked around, and couldn't help but said in shock.

Baoshan?!
Everyone took a breath.

seem…….
There is nothing wrong with saying this.

Look at the courtyard, then look at the closed east and west wing rooms, and the door to the lobby.

They will definitely not return empty-handed in this yard. There must be other good things that they haven't seen yet.

"This place should be the secret place where Young Master Qin usually tinkers with some novelty gadgets. Gudong... These seem to be some incredible things."

Wei Zheng looked around and said with difficulty.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the treasures in this yard are enough for us to drink a pot of wine. As for this coal, I think I have never seen such a style before."

Changsun Wuji stared at the pile of coal and said.

"I wonder what kind of private money the King of Chu has hidden in this room. Your Majesty, how about opening the door first?"

Du Ruhui rubbed his hands, and his voice was a little distorted due to excitement.

excitement!
excited!

Can't hold myself!!
This feeling is really awesome. What does a wave of fat mean?

They finally experienced what it felt like to be a bandit.

Damn!

So cool! !

My heart was pounding hard.

Who would have thought that he would actually find Qin Changye’s base of good stuff!

The old man was looking at the emperors and dukes in the court, each of them excited and no less greedy than the bandits.

He sighed and shook his head silently.

I thought to myself that it was a wise decision for our ancestors to leave Chang'an.

Look at their appearance, is Chang'an a place where people can stay?!
If Your Highness were still in the yard now, I'm afraid he would be annoyed to death.

Empress Changsun seemed to see through the old man's sigh and felt a little embarrassed.

"Old sir, just report all this to Master Qin."

"It's not your fault, it's His Majesty and the ministers. Well... I believe Master Qin won't make it difficult for you."

Empress Chang Sun didn't know what to say either, so she pondered and comforted him.

The old man smiled.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about? Since Xiao Qin has said that Your Majesty and Your Highness can do as they please, I have nothing to say. Please do as you please."

The old man said.

Queen Changsun nodded.

Little Sizi had happily run to play next to the scarecrow, and Princess Changle was following and watching over him.

Li Shimin brought a group of people and walked directly to the pile of seemingly abandoned saddles.

Compared to the coal, the saddle and stool attracted him more.

The fact that these saddles can be piled up in this yard says something.

After all, if it were an ordinary saddle, how could it be placed in the Prince of Chu's Courtyard? !
Not to mention, they can be piled up in this yard where no one is allowed to enter.

A group of people surrounded.

Look carefully.

Li Shimin frowned.

These saddles seemed to be truly abandoned, because they were quite different from the saddles he had in mind, and they were also somewhat different from the saddles currently used in the Tang Dynasty.

It must be a defective product.

Li Shimin thought to himself.

"this……."

However, Li Jing rolled up his sleeves, bent down and picked up a saddle.

This saddle is much heavier than the one in the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, it is much more complicated.

"This saddle has never been seen in our Tang Dynasty. We haven't seen it before."

Li Jing stretched out his arms and showed the saddle.

Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde, the three generals, thought deeply for a few breaths and then shook their heads.

They are military generals, and they deal with saddles every day.

There are so many saddles that have been worn out between people's legs that I don't know how many there are.

They are too familiar.

But this... is different. It's really different.

A saddle is a saddle, but this saddle seems a little improper.

"I've never seen this saddle before. It looks like it's really abandoned. It looks much heavier than the saddles in my Tang Dynasty. A saddle like this will definitely not be comfortable on a horse."

"It will also increase the strength of the warhorse, causing its explosive power and speed to decrease."

Changsun Wuji said thoughtfully.

"Yeah, that's right."

"What war horses need most is to reduce their weight, which will also reduce wear and tear on them."

Du Ruhui echoed.

"It seems that Master Qin has finally figured out his mistakes, hahahaha... From this perspective, Master Qin is not a god, and he is not proficient in everything."

Wei Zheng also laughed.

This saddle is indeed too complicated and too heavy.

The saddle of the Tang Dynasty could be placed directly on the horse's back, but this one is much higher than the Tang Dynasty saddle and does not seem to be stable.

"Well, that's true."

Li Shimin also nodded in agreement.

Li Jing threw the saddle on the ground.

Since it is waste, there is no need to look at it again.

It's quite heavy and a little difficult to hold.

present.

Everyone lost interest in the saddles and turned to look at the pile of coal on the other side.

But, this matchmaker seems a bit bad.

"Your Majesty, it's all coal." Cheng Yaojin said in a deep voice.

"Coal?!"

Li Shimin was slightly startled. He walked in and took a closer look. Sure enough, it was coal.

The coal in the Tang Dynasty was also divided into different grades.

The best is naturally charcoal.

The worst is coal.

Not only is it difficult to burn, it also produces a lot of smoke.

However, this kind of coal was the most commonly used among the people of the Tang Dynasty.

For no other reason than because it's cheap.

This is carbon which is much simpler than charcoal.

One pound of charcoal can be exchanged for ten pounds of coal. This price difference says it all.

But no one expected that Qin Changye would use coal.

No matter what, Qin Changye is a prince of the Tang Dynasty, yet he is so frugal.

But, that’s not right either.

Qin Changye is rich.

Richer than the imperial court.

A truly rich and adversary country.

And no matter how you look at it, Qin Changye is not the kind of person who would be willing to put himself in a difficult position.

How come coal is used?

I don't understand.

I don't understand.

"Your Majesty, that's not right. This coal... seems different."

At this time, Changsun Wuji suddenly stood on the other side of the coal pile and shouted loudly.

no the same? !

Changsun Wuji's shout immediately aroused the curiosity of Li Shimin and others.

Li Shimin hurried over.

Rows of coal.

No.

This shape is no longer that of coal, but has become a cylinder, and in the center of this cylinder there are several holes. (End of this chapter)
