Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 629 Li Ke also sent someone to Gyeongju
After the two staff members discussed it, they had no choice. Who told them to pretend to be generous, and even pretended to pay for the sky-high price of wine. The capital is the capital, and the price is too expensive!

The staff member surnamed Lu stayed in the medicinal food workshop, and the staff member surnamed He was responsible for going back to ask for money from the chief steward of Wu Wangfu.

Staff member He left the Medicinal Food Workshop, trotted all the way, ran back to Wu Wangfu, found the butler, and explained the matter again.The housekeeper was furious, what a joke, sixty pennies for wine, even if it was a banquet held by Prince Wu's residence, the price would be the highest, and the two of them actually paid such a sky-high price for a treat. money?
Staff member He had no choice but to say that he had found out important news, which was definitely worth the price.The butler couldn't, the expenditure was a bit too high, he couldn't make the decision, he had to ask Li Ke for instructions, and took He aide to see Li Ke.

Staff member He has no other skills, but his ability to exaggerate is not small.As soon as he saw Li Ke, he said, "My lord, the villain has found out a big news tonight, it's about Wang Ping'an, and he spent a lot of money on drinks for it."

Li Ke was worrying about Gao Wanquan, when he heard the news about Wang Ping'an, he asked, "What's wrong with Wang Ping'an? Tell me quickly."

Staff member He said: "The villain went to the medicated food shop opened by Wang Ping'an, and saw a group of imperial guards drinking for fun. It seemed that they were practicing for two people. It seemed that they were a pair of imperial guard generals surnamed Meng. These two guys are not things in particular, let us drink and eat..."

Li Ke waved his hand, and said: "What are you talking about if you don't pay for the wine, why are you mentioning this, hurry up and tell me about Wang Ping'an!"

Staff member He hurriedly said: "Yes. The villain invited them to drink, and it came out of their mouths. It turned out that the pair of generals surnamed Meng were going to Qingzhou. I don't know what they were going to do. Anyway, they were very happy. When we met, they were very wary, so it was really difficult to find out too much news."

Li Ke made a sound, and said: "Meng surnamed, two? Only the East Palace has two guards surnamed Meng, Meng Dayian and Meng Xiaotian who invited Wang Pingan to Beijing!"

He is not familiar with the guards in other palaces, but he can recite the names of the guards and eunuchs in the East Palace. If you want to kill Prince Li Zhi, you must first get to know his subordinates!
Staff member He didn't know if it was true, but nodded and said: "I just don't know that the imperial guards of the Eastern Palace are going to see Wang Ping'an. Why should they celebrate first? It doesn't make sense. It's not about getting promoted and getting rich, but just going to meet someone. What benefit do they have?"

benefit?Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Li Ke's mind, illuminating every corner, and many things that he didn't understand before suddenly became clear!

He thought to himself: "That Gao Wanquan died at the back door of my house, which means that he never left Chang'an, but was imprisoned somewhere in Chang'an. It is very likely that he was imprisoned by the Meng brothers. Wang Pingan knew that Gao Wanquan was I sent it, and Li Zhi would naturally know about it. Li Zhi was confused, so he asked the Meng brothers to kill him, and warned me not to have any wrongdoing. And the Meng brothers have done this matter, in fact, not only What was done for Li Zhi was also done for Wang Pingan, so Li Zhi sent them to inform Wang Pingan, of course they were happy, Wang Pingan is so generous, there is no reason not to give a big reward!"

Li Ke said to himself: "It seems that Li Zhi's foundation is still with Wang Ping'an. If Wang Ping'an is not destroyed, Li Zhi will not be destroyed!"

Staff member He said: "That's right, Wang Ping'an is the crown prince's number one favorite, and Wang Ping'an has to do all the shameful things. As long as Wang Ping'an is finished, then the crown prince is not far from being finished!"

Li Ke nodded, thinking: "I should send someone to Qingzhou to collect evidence of Wang Pingan's crimes. If you can't find the bone, you have to break the egg first!"

Staff member He didn't care what he was thinking, his troubles hadn't been resolved yet, he said: "My lord, look at the money for the wine?"

Li Ke waved his hand impatiently, and said, "Tell this kind of trivial matter to the king, and go to the housekeeper to cancel the account!"

"Yes, that villain has gone down!" Aide He ran to find the housekeeper, offered money so that he could quickly redeem Aide Lu, and don't be escorted to the kitchen to wash dishes...

Li Ke thought about it all night, and his head hurt from thinking about it. Finally, he decided that Wang Ping'an must be brought down. As long as Li Zhi didn't have this right-hand man, it would be easy to deal with him. By the way, Li Zhi can also be punished!

Early the next morning, Li Ke went to court, so he didn't need to think about it anymore, he knew the answer as soon as he went to court.Wang Pingan sent back the memorial, saying that he would build water conservancy in Gyeongju and asked the Ministry of Industry for support.

Changsun Wuji and Ma Zhou strongly supported this proposal. Wang Pingan explained in the document that if the court does not need money, he will find a way to repair the canal. Is there any reason not to support such a good thing?
Li Shimin immediately issued an order to ask the Ministry of Industry to send officials proficient in water conservancy to Gyeongju, set off on a certain day, and send someone to deliver the order, telling Wang Pingan to make various preparations.But the eunuch who delivered the decree was recommended by Li Zhi, it was Mi Xiaomiao, and the guard was none other than the brothers of the Meng family!

The situation suddenly became clear, and indeed it was Wang Ping'an who made another big move. As long as he made a big move, Li Zhi would definitely benefit in the end!
Li Ke can no longer bear Li Zhi's success, and if this continues, his hope of becoming the prince will be even slimmer!He was heartbroken, anyway, I can't make political achievements, and I can't let Li Zhi make them.If I can't do it well, can I still do it badly!
After the dynasty was dispersed, Li Ke immediately asked someone to find documents about Gyeongju, especially about water conservancy. It doesn’t matter if you don’t check it. After a search, he found that the canal was also built in Gyeongju in the previous Sui Dynasty, and it failed. up!

Li Ke was overjoyed, as long as he failed, he couldn't let Wang Pingan succeed this time!He immediately recruited a few new staff members, including the two from yesterday. He didn't know that He and Lu were humiliated and thrown home in the medicinal food workshop, and they didn't tell him where he would go.

He told his staff what to do, and sent a lot of capable people with the same new faces, let these people go to Gyeongju together, and add some trouble to Wang Ping'an!

Gyeongju.

Wang Pingan has been discussing with Boss Du these days, while drawing the drawings of the Lanzhou waterwheel. He knows the general appearance of the Lanzhou waterwheel and the working principle, but he has to discuss the specific details and how to make it with the carpenter.

Although the condition of Mrs. Du's wife does not seem to be improving, fortunately, it has stabilized, and Wang Ping'an gave him the job of building water trucks, which has a good salary and can be withdrawn in advance.His gratitude to Wang Ping'an is really like the water of a good and small river, and it is endless, so he worked hard to the fullest.

On this day, Wang Ping'an was sitting in the study of the governor's mansion, looking at the drawings on the table, with Boss Du accompanying him.Wang Pingan pointed to the blueprint and said, "It's almost done, it's just like this. If you want to improve it, you can only improve it slowly after it's built."

Boss Du worked hard on this blueprint. He has never seen a waterwheel with such a concept in his life, and said, "Lord Governor, this waterwheel is very huge. If it is built, it will cost at least five waterwheels per waterwheel." If you make it as big as possible, the cost will increase by 01:30, and you will have to double it. If you don’t have a thousand guan, I’m afraid you won’t be able to make the biggest one.”

Wang Pingan said: "Money is not a problem. We only need to have the money to build one waterwheel, and we don't need to spend money on the future waterwheels. So this first one must be built well, and the biggest one will be built."

Boss Du said, "Just need the money for a water truck?"

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "That's right, this first waterwheel is a sample. Do you understand what a sample is? It's like a store in the city that puts it on a shelf for customers to see. Customers will sell it after seeing it. So this first A waterwheel must be beautiful and strong!"

Boss Du murmured: "I want to sell water trucks, how long will it take to sell them? It's been too long, this year may be over, so I can only wait for next year to irrigate the fields with water trucks!"

Wang Pingan snorted and said, "Who told you that you have to build it before you can sell it? Well, you don't understand these things, and you don't need to understand them. You just need to build waterwheels, the first in the world... The first safe water truck is ready!"

He has already decided to name this new type of large waterwheel Ping An Waterwheel. It is auspicious and pleasant to hear, and it will spread quickly, and the common people are also willing to use this kind of waterwheel with an auspicious name.

Mr. Du naturally agreed, and he went to look at the blueprint again, saying: "Lord Inspector, if the villain comes to build this first waterwheel, it may take a month, but if he finds a helper, it will take half a month." .From the point of view of a villain, the key is still in the assembly, and it is troublesome to put it by the river. In this comparison, it is actually carpentry work, which is the best job!"

Wang Pingan nodded and said: "Of course I know that. But you don't need to build a big water tanker directly. You can build a small model first, just like a child's toy. It's just as big as it is, and the workmanship is finer. As long as it looks good!" He gestured with his hand, signaling Boss Du to build a washbasin-sized model first.

Boss Du thought for a while, and said: "It's very simple to build such a big waterwheel. There are three or four good carpenters in our village, and their craftsmanship is no worse than that of a villain. If we work together, we can do it in three days." I can get it out."

Wang Pingan said: "Okay, you all work together to make this model quickly. Be careful, you need to find a reliable person. Before this year, this blueprint cannot be leaked. We are still counting on selling water trucks to repair it for Gyeongju." As for the canal, it is worthless if it leaks out."

Mr. Du repeatedly agreed, saying that everyone in their village was grateful for the governor's kindness, and that the blueprints would not be leaked out of their hands. He put away the blueprints and wanted to leave.

Wang Ping'an asked, "Where is Mrs. Du, is she getting better?"

Boss Du showed a little joy on his face, but he shook his head and said, "Master Inspector's medicine is very effective, and Jiannei's condition has eased."
