The immortal of the Tang Dynasty, but the game starts at Xuanwu Gate?

Chapter 73 You should learn from that guy surnamed Wei.

After teasing the adorable little girl Li Lizhi, Chen Huai'an didn't linger and went straight to find Li Shimin.

At this moment, Li Shimin was processing memorials, a faint smile always playing on his lips.

He was clearly in a good mood.

There was nothing he could do; Li Shimin was in an incredibly good mood. Pei Ji was about to die, and he had reaped all the benefits. It was Li Yuan who issued the decree to execute Pei Ji.

The removal of one of the former leading officials in the court served as a shock to the court. When Pei Ji was publicly executed, it also allowed the people to clearly see the emperor's attitude.

Get more in one fell swoop.

In addition, Li Yuan's cousin, Li Yuan, the Prince of Lujiang who was appointed as the governor of Youzhou in early June, rebelled.

However, despite his rebellion, he was killed by his subordinate, Wang Junkuo.

The rebellion was thus quelled.

More importantly, Xue Wanche, who had escaped with the elite troops of the former Crown Prince, also surrendered after being persuaded with kind words and enticed with promises of food and benefits.

All Li Shimin wants to say now is...

I am extremely pleased!

"Your Highness, Mr. Chen has arrived; he's outside."

At this moment, a eunuch came to report.

"Oh?" Li Shimin raised an eyebrow slightly. "This Chen Huai'an, he never comes to my door without a reason, but today he's come looking for me."

"Let him in."

"Yes, Your Highness." The eunuch withdrew.

Soon, Chen Huai'an slowly walked in. Li Shimin said with interest, "Huai'an, what's wrong? Why aren't you staying home? Why do you have time to come see me?"

His words were tinged with humor, and he was clearly closer to Chen Huai'an.

Li Shimin was not one to forget his roots. He knew very well that the reason things were going so smoothly was largely due to Chen Huai'an's efforts.

While he was sitting at home, Chen Huai'an brought the food to him and fed it to him.

It would be difficult for Li Shimin not to be close to such a subordinate.

"Your Highness is wise. I have indeed come here today on a matter of great importance."

Tell me about it.

"The curved plow has been invented."

Li Shimin: ?

He abruptly stood up, stunned for a moment, and tentatively asked, "What has been created?"

"Quyuanli."

"What kind of plow?"

"The curved plow, Your Highness!"

Li Shimin: !!

"You mean...you mean that curved plow that can be easily pulled by a single ox and doubles the efficiency of tilling the land?"

"Yes, Your Highness, it's this curved plow!"

"Where is the stuff?" Li Shimin asked breathlessly as he strode up to Chen Huai'an and looked around.

Chen Huai'an said helplessly, "Outside, this thing is made of iron and is a sharp object, so the guards outside won't let me bring it in."

"Useless trash!" Li Shimin cursed angrily, then, realizing his mistake, hurriedly said to Chen Huai'an, "Sir, please don't misunderstand, I wasn't cursing you."

"......I know."

"Someone, someone!" Li Shimin couldn't care less about anything else at this point; his mind was filled with his longing for the curved plow that Chen Huai'an had described earlier.

For him now, the curved plow is not just a tool that can double the efficiency of farming, but also a tool that can greatly enhance his status in the eyes of the people, solidify his throne, and become an indispensable part of governing the country in the future.

This will be his first and most dazzling achievement after he ascends the throne!

Soon, someone brought in the curved plow that Chen Huai'an had brought.

Li Shimin looked at it from left to right and asked with great interest, "Isn't this just turning the original straight shaft into a curved one? It looks like a lot of things have been added."

"Is it really as amazing as you say?"

Chen Huai'an smiled faintly: "Whether it's that magical or not, Your Highness can try it and see."

"Alright, then I'll give it a try myself!" Li Shimin made the decision without hesitation, and then went out with Chen Huai'an and Qu Yuanli.

The Eastern Palace, also known as the Small Imperial Palace.

The facilities inside are complete, and finding an open space is not difficult.

Li Shimin then sent someone to bring over an ox, and disregarding everyone's objections, he personally put on the reins and whipped the ox to pull the plow.

It would have been better if he hadn't pulled it; once he did, Li Shimin immediately revealed a wanton smile.

"Hahahaha, good, good, good, what a fine curved plow! It can turn flexibly, plow the soil at varying depths, and most importantly, it requires absolutely no effort."

"Huai'an, you didn't lie to me. This is a national treasure!"

Li Shimin kept praising, showing no sign of stopping, as excited as a child.

The news quickly reached Empress Zhangsun's ears.

Soon, the curious Empress Zhangsun, along with Xiao Lizhi and Xiao Chengqian, ran over to see what was going on.

"Guanyinbi, you've come at the right time. Look at this plow. It can be easily pulled by an ox without any effort. If the people had this curved plow, the efficiency of plowing would increase by who knows how much."

"Guanyinbi, look at Guanyinbi!"

Empress Zhangsun smiled and said, "Your Highness, I saw it."

"Your Highness, I offer my congratulations!"

"With this curved plow, Your Highness will surely usher in a new golden age, your literary talent rivaling that of Emperor Wen of Han, and your military prowess no less than that of Emperor Wu of Han!"

"Your Majesty, I am terrified. I fear I will have to be extremely careful in the future to avoid disgracing Your Highness."

"Hahahaha." These words truly struck a chord with Li Shimin.

Chen Huai'an's expression changed, and he looked at Changsun Wugou with a hint of admiration.

No wonder you hold such a high place in Li Er's heart.

With words like that, wouldn't they be enough to lure Li Shimin into becoming an embryo?

What does it mean to be terrified? From now on, you must be extremely careful so as not to embarrass Li Shimin.

Doesn't that mean that Li Shimin is destined to be extremely brilliant in the future, and as his legal wife, she must be careful with her words and actions so as not to embarrass him?

Check it out.

That's the magic of language.

"Your Highness, we've already tested the curved plow that Mr. Chen brought out. It's time to stop, lest he overwork himself. The most important thing now is to have the Ministry of Works mass-produce curved plows for the people to use."

Empress Zhangsun reminded her from the side that a single sentence could have multiple meanings.

It not only emphasizes that the curved plow was provided by Chen Huai'an, reminding Li Shimin not to forget Chen's contribution, but also reveals the care for Li Shimin and points out the most urgent task at hand.

Chen Huai'an responded to this.

You should learn from that guy surnamed Wei.

"All right."

Li Shimin, of course, understood what Empress Zhangsun said and stopped, still wanting to say more.

Li Chengqian said admiringly, "Sir, you are truly amazing."

Li Lizhi muttered softly, "She just loves teasing kids..."

Empress Zhangsun heard her daughter's complaints, but she said nothing, a gentle smile on her face.

Li Shimin ordered his men to remove the curved plow, and with a wave of his hand...

"Huai'an, Zhou, come inside with me."

"I will reward you handsomely!"

Chen Huai'an: "..."
