People in Datang have been expelled from school

Li Zheng said to Yan Liben, "When can we start work?"

Yan Liben said: "It will take three days to deal with the matters left by the academy before we can start work."

Li Zheng said, "I'll arrange the manpower."

Yan Liben nodded in agreement.

The boiler in Jingyang has been in operation for several days. It does not require manpower, let alone livestock. It only needs to add coal to the boiler to make it work.

People in the village are very curious about this big guy.

It is even suspected that the boiler is actually a living thing.

In the palace, Li Shimin was looking at a painting in front of him, and what was painted in the painting was the appearance of a boiler.

Wang Ding said from the side: "Your Majesty, this is a new thing made by Jingyang. The Academy calls this a boiler."

Li Shimin looked at the boiler on the drawing, "This thing should be very big."

Wang Ding nodded, "A few adult men can't hug them, and Jingyang is still making them, so they say they need to make more."

Li Shimin asked, "What is this thing for?"

Wang Ding replied: "It can help with work. It doesn't need manpower or even animals to pull it. It can move by itself. It's a very expressive thing."

After looking at the drawings for a while, Li Shimin was very troubled.

It's not like I haven't seen this thing in Jingyang before.

At that time, Li Zhi didn't think about food or tea all day just because of this thing.

Now this thing is finally built?

And can help the workshop work?

Li Shimin said: "Could it be that he uses this thing just to make Jingyang more money?"

Wang Ding nodded and said, "It looks like this now."

What Li Shimin hopes more is that the things made in Jingyang can be used in the community.

In order to make Datang stronger, let the academy use its wisdom where it should be used.

Instead of thinking about letting Li Zheng make money.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and said, "This Li Zheng really looks the same."

Wang Ding said: "Your Majesty, recently there are many people in the court who are talking about handing over more border fortifications to Jingyang."

Li Shimin put down the teacup in his hand, "I have indeed received such memorials these days. They say that in this way, the court will not have to spend manpower and power, let alone recruit people's power, even if there is an omission in the fortifications, or it has aroused public anger , all the responsibility lies with Jingyang.”

Wang Ding bowed and nodded.

Li Shimin said with some hesitation: "Handing over the fortifications to Jingyang can indeed save the court a lot of work, but Li Zheng wants to make money from these fortifications."

Wang Ding didn't dare to ask about government affairs, but just told Li Shimin what he knew.

After a long time, Li Shimin said: "Let Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui lead a discussion on this matter."

"Here!"

Li Shimin looked away from the picture scroll and turned his head to look at the map. Now the fortifications of the border are all on the guards at each pass.

Usually this kind of thing is arranged for the future.

Or the Ministry of Industry sent someone to assist.

If Jingyang can do better frontier fortifications, it is of course a good thing.

North Korea and China are also worry-free.

Even if Li Zheng tampered with it, he could be supervised.

You can know if you find any clues.

Li Zheng would not be so stupid as to play tricks on the frontier.

Although this incident is beneficial to both Chaozhong and Jingyang, Chaozhong saves trouble and Jingyang makes money.

It's okay to just let Li Zheng earn money.

It is not a big deal for the DPRK to spend tens of thousands of coins.

Now the treasury of the central government is very full.

My own treasury is full of silver.

But Li Shimin always felt that something was wrong.

I always feel that there is something wrong with it, but I can't figure out where the problem is.

In Jingyang, Xu Jingzong complained to Li Zheng: "Chang'an Order, His Majesty seems to have discovered something and bought off many officials in the court, but His Majesty has not handed over the construction of border defenses to Jingyang for a long time."

Li Zheng said: "Your Majesty is a suspicious person, and he will not make decisions lightly."

Xu Jingzong frowned and said, "Why don't you buy some higher-ranking officials, such as the Ministry of Education?"

The Zhongshu Province is the center of the government.

The people inside were either Changsun Wuji's people or Li Shimin's cronies.

Li Zheng said: "Most of the people in Zhongshu Province have backgrounds, and they act recklessly for fear of hitting the iron plate."

Xu Jingzong would say: "The Chang'an Order said that if we fail, we will suffer from it instead."

While cleaning the stables, Li Zheng said: "You said that Yumen Pass and Yanmen Pass have not been repaired for a long time."

Xu Jingzong said: "It is true that it has not been repaired for some years. The Chang'an Order means..."

Li Zheng said: "You said that there is something wrong with the tower of Yanmen Pass at this time, will the court be more anxious?"

Xu Jingzong suddenly realized, "There is no war at the border now, and there is no intention of repairing the border. Your Majesty will not make a decision easily because this matter is not in a hurry. If there is any problem with the tower of Yanmen Pass, or if the city wall is about to collapse, The DPRK and China will naturally rush to make a decision."

After cleaning the horse manure aside, Li Zheng said, "Now you know what to do?"

Xu Jingzong nodded vigorously, "I know what to do."

Li Zheng said again: "Then go to work, and dump the horse manure for me by the way."

"Okay, let's do it."

Xu Jingzong left with a cart of horse dung.

Li Zheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the stables that had been cleaned, and sat aside to rest.

Dahu is newly married, Yan Er, and the time for coming to the horse circle has been getting later and later.

Li Tai was busy with the affairs of the academy again.

I do all the work up and down the stables by myself.

After working until noon, Li Zheng washed his body with cold water after finishing packing the stables, changed into clean clothes and sat aside, not wanting to move anymore.

It is a tiring job for one person to tidy up the stables of more than 500 horses.

Li Lizhi and Xu Hui came with a food box.

When he got closer, Li Lizhi said, "I know you haven't eaten at noon, so I brought you some food."

Xu Hui carefully put the food on the stone table aside, "Chang'an Ling, let's eat."

Since the intercourse, Li Lizhi didn't seem to care much about the operation of the workshop these days.

Li Zheng felt that she had inexplicably started to care about daily life.

At this time of weekdays, he should still be busy in the accounting room.

Now she still has the mind to bring food to herself.

Li Zheng, who had been hungry for a long time, was eating food with a bowl.

Seeing Li Lizhi walking behind her.

Li Zheng saw her hands on his shoulders and pressed them hard.

"Why are you so gentle all of a sudden?"

Hearing the words here, Li Lizhi said in a low voice: "Didn't I be gentle before?"

Li Zheng said: "I still like the calculating look on your face before."

"Really? You like that?"

Li Lizhi pressed her hand very lightly, her hair fell on his shoulders, and Li Zheng swallowed hard.

Could it be that this woman is going to be a demon?
Li Zheng cleared his throat and said, "You'd better change back quickly, I'm afraid."
