Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 22 Warning
For food, Li Zhiyun had no requirements, so he told Yuwenwen to keep everything simple.

Yuwenwen was ordered to leave, while Li Zhiyun turned around and went to the side courtyard, where he discussed with Yuwen Rutong to create a 'deep well ice'.

It's winter now, and it's a good time to store ice. In summer, you can eat iced fruits, not too beautiful.

As the son of Yuwenkai, Yuwen Rutong is extremely talented in metallurgy.He knew from his father's manuscripts how many projects were constructed.Shenjingbing is not so difficult. After Li Zhiyun's explanation, Yuwen Rutong has already figured out the trick.

"In my humble opinion, adding marl and straw can make the ice last longer."

Yuwen Rutong watched the guards start work, put a piece of ice into the well, and instructed the man to cover the ice with straw and other objects.

"Yes." Li Zhiyun had no choice but to do this. This is the normal way to store ice, and with a deep well, it will definitely work.

Long before the expedition, Li Zhiyun had already greeted people to hide ice, but now it's just transferring ice.After all, it's the end of February, the weather is getting warmer, and the ice can't be kept outside for long.

Yuwen Rutong actually wanted to vomit badly. He was obviously a literary rafter, so how could he end up doing the work of a cadre in the end.

However, he is now Li Zhiyun's subordinate. Whatever the boss says, he will naturally do it.Fortunately, his father Yu Wenkai left him a lot of useful things.

"Chu Gong, the kind of stone you asked your subordinates to find, the subordinates have already got some clues from the father's handwriting, I wonder if you have time to look at it now?"

"Oh, so soon, let's go."

In terms of smelting experience, who can compare to Yu Wenkai's profoundness, and having the materials he left behind can help Li Zhiyun save a lot of things.

In any case, start with cement concrete or something.There are ready-made materials for these two things. The trouble is the matching. However, Li Zhiyun, who graduated from the College of Arts and Sciences, is still clear about this. It is nothing more than a lot of procedures to experiment.

Anyway, all he has now is time.

It was not until noon that Li Zhiyun and Yuwen Rutong finished arranging the preliminary stone materials and used the available and part of the drawings to draw them.

"Duke Chu is also good at craftsmanship?" Yuwen Rutong looked at the standard straight lines and curves on the paper, and was immediately shocked.In addition, the blast furnace after Li Zhiyun's transformation is also on the paper, making it clear at a glance.

"If you want to burn this special stone, you can't do it without this kind of furnace. You can go to Xue Shou in a while and ask him to give you money. It's on the Weihe River. I have a piece of land. Get up."

Li Zhiyun doesn't know if the craftsman's way is good or not. Anyway, this is the craftsmanship he used to eat in his previous life.

"Next time you draw a drawing, just use this charcoal pen." Li Zhiyun handed the charcoal pen to Yuwen Rutong, "It's more convenient than using a brush."

"As ordered."

Li Zhiyun still has a lot of money on hand, all of which are wages and bonuses given by Old Li.Except for the funds, it is real estate and land.It happened that there was a piece of land on the other side of the Wei River. Originally, the land belonged to the Yin Shishi, but he had already been beheaded, and the land was handed over to Li Zhiyun.

Yuwen Rutong got the money and land deed from Xue Shou, and went to Weihe under the leadership of Li Zhen.

Doufu.

After Li Yuan's uprising, the Guanlong clan, who had been suppressed by Yang Jian and Yang Guang's father and son, raised their heads again.Among them, Dou's and Dugu's are especially bad.These two families have a close relationship with Li Yuan. Li Yuan's mother was born in Dugu, and Li Yuanzheng's wife was born in Dou.Therefore, in the planning of Li Yuan's raising troops to replace the Sui, Dou and Dugu contributed greatly.

However, they soon discovered that Li Yuan seemed to have left them in the cold.The snub here is not a suppression, but it is not as intimate as before.

Dou Wei's current Prime Minister's Office, Secretary Lu, joined the army and was in charge of the court's regulations. He was a first-class celebrity beside Li Yuan.

Opposite him, Dou Kang and Dugu Zhen were sitting.

Dou Kang and Dou Wei are a generation apart, but they are similar in age and they are cousins ​​and nephews.Dugu Zhen is the head of the Dugu family, and the current Prime Minister's Mansion joins the army.

"Shude, it seems that there is no will to replace Sui. I've been attacking him from the side, but he always pretends to be deaf and dumb, and it seems that he has no such intentions." Dou Wei closed his eyes and said slowly.

The ginger slices in the tea cup are ups and downs, the heat is rising, and the peculiar smell is permeating.Dugu Zhen raised his head and said, "He is not on the throne because he just wants to wait for a suitable opportunity. Right now, Yang Guangyuan has not died in Jiangdu, and he doesn't want to make a statement. As long as Yang Guang is dead, we can push him to the throne."

"Don't be too hasty." Dou Kang reminded with pursed lips.

"Don't be too hasty?" Dou Wei didn't understand, "With us supporting him, Guan Long's heart is attached, why not."

"It is precisely because of this that we cannot threaten people's will." Dou Kang said.

Dugu Zhen was thoughtful, and he probably understood what Dou Kang meant.However, he did not continue to tangle on this matter, but said: "A while ago, I heard that he was going to recruit Wang Gui, Zheng Shanguo and others to enter the court. Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Dou Wei said, "The concubine Shizi is the daughter of Zheng Shanguo's brother, so Zheng Shanguo temporarily served as the minister of the Dali Temple. As for Wang Gui, it seems that the Prime Minister Silu Li Gang recommended him to join the army as a consultant in the Shizifu."

Dou Kang straightened his waist, frowning slightly.Li Yuan did this for an obvious purpose.

Dou Wei and Dugu Zhen also understood Li Yuan's purpose, and they all showed sadness on their faces.

"And today is undecided, he is busy keeping us in check. If he doesn't ascend the throne, I'm afraid he is also waiting for Xiao Yu's move."

"Xiao Yu is here?" Dou Wei asked in surprise.

Dugu shook his head, "When Li Shimin attacked Xue Ju, he wrote a letter inviting Xiao Yu to come to Chang'an to assist Li Yuan. The day before yesterday, the daughter of Dugu sent a letter that they will return."

Xiao Yu's first wife was born in the Dugu clan, and the marriage was facilitated by the then Queen Dugu.

"Apart from Xiao Yu, I heard that Wang Tong, Pei Ju and others are also in contact with Li Yuan." Dou Wei said.

Dugu Zhen leaned back slightly, leaning against the table, showing dissatisfaction.

"Maybe, we have to teach him a lesson."

Dou Kang hurriedly said, "This is not right."

"What's wrong?" Dugu Zhen asked back, "Jinyang armored soldiers, liaison matters, food and supplies, etc. are all gifts from us. If Li Xiuning, Li Shentong and others in Guanzhong did not hide in the gates of Guanlong, how would they survive? , not to mention the soldiers and horses under their command, all of whom are our guardians."

No one is qualified to say such a thing, only Dugu Zhen can say so openly, because more than [-]% of Li Yuan's starting capital and manpower for raising the army were taken out by them.In particular, Jinyang recruited troops, and they used various means to send the elite soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army of Koguryo to Taiyuan to help Li Yuan.

Even Jinyang Jiaku was secretly protected by their people.

Otherwise, how can we wait for Li Yuan to use it!
"Since entering the customs, all the way has been smooth, Chang'an has come down, the government is harmonious, the people are living and working in peace and contentment, accepting his existence as a great prime minister, who is helping him secretly, doesn't he know at all!"

Dugu Zhen became more and more angry. He thought he had shown incomparably rich sincerity, but he did not expect that Li Yuan's sincerity was lacking.But now that Guanzhong is set, he has to play balance.Knowing this, he should have supported Yang Xuangan back then!

Of course, this is just a joke.Guanlong and Hongnong are mortal enemies, and this involves the affairs of Yang Su's generation.

"Brother Dugu, don't be impatient." Dou Wei advised: "Don't force it too much, we can warn him first."

"How to warn?" Dugu Zhen asked.

Dou Wei pondered for a while, thinking about it.

"Beijing Jihu Ashi Deduoji, maybe it can be used."

"Astrodorji?" Dugu said in shock, "How much are armored soldiers?"

"Fifty thousand soldiers with armor."

"it is good."

The corner of Dou Wei's mouth pursed, "The former soldier failed to conquer Xue Ju, this time I would like to invite Brother Dugu to recommend a scholar to quell the rebellion."

A few days ago, Dou Gui followed Li Shimin to crusade against Xue Ju, but he lost the opportunity and suffered a defeat.

"Dougui, yes." Dugu shook his head.

Listening to the calculations of the two elders, Dou Kang sighed in his heart, but he didn't say anything after all.
