Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 608

After looking around, Sun Changzhen introduced: "According to His Majesty's instructions, I have developed several kinds of crude gunpowder by mixing sulfur, realgar saltpeter, honey, charcoal, etc., but this kind of gunpowder is not easy to control, and the reaction varies , and the fuze also has problems, sometimes the gunpowder cannot be detonated, and sometimes the power cannot be controlled.

At present, Chen's idea is that you can try to see how powerful the gun barrel is.If it is moderate, the minister will have a good idea, so that he can follow the map and determine the appropriate ratio of gunpowder materials according to the formula. "

Li Zhiyun said: "Once the barrel is installed, it is easy to explode, are you ready?"

"The minister is already ready."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun thought for a while and agreed.

After half an hour.

boom!
With a bang, the barrel of the gun was torn apart, and the ground was completely dark.

"Failed." Yuwen Rutong and Sun Changzhen said at the same time.

Li Zhiyun's expression remained calm, and he even felt a little happy in his heart.Because he saw the possibility of the birth of artillery, but not now.

"Don't be discouraged, take your time, I'm not in a hurry." Li Zhiyun stood up, looked at the artillery residue a hundred steps away, and said, "One day we will succeed."

"Yes."

When leaving, Li Zhiyun ordered that no one should be allowed to reveal what happened today, otherwise he would be executed immediately.

The development of artillery must be kept absolutely confidential.

Night, Lanxiang Hall.

Li Zhiyun was leaning against the soft cushion, while the dignified and pretty Concubine Shu was sitting by the side of the couch, carefully kneading the calf column for His Majesty the Emperor.

The little Pixiu crawled around on Li Zhiyun's body, and from time to time, he grabbed the beard that grew out of Li Zhiyun's chin and giggled coquettishly.

The youngest daughter's family has a delicate skin and a tender body, with a beautiful Zhong Ling.

"What's the matter today, so happy?" Li Zhiyun hugged his daughter and asked.

Xiao Pixiu pinched the old father's beard, and said softly: "Second elder brother was physically punished by the mother and concubine, it's fun."

"Cheng Yan?"

Concubine Yang Shu nodded, and explained: "This child was messing around in school, and was whipped by the teacher. He came back angrily, and asked the concubine to punish the gentleman, and the concubine punished him angrily."

Li Zhiyun chuckled, not paying much attention.

Several of his women, especially the concubines from famous families, are very strict with their son's education, they must obey the etiquette and study hard.All homework assigned by the school must be completed meticulously, otherwise you will suffer.This is not a big deal, except for the things to be learned in school, his talented and knowledgeable concubines have to teach his son additional knowledge.

"Don't be too serious, the child is still young." Li Zhiyun persuaded casually.

After pinching one leg, Concubine Yang Shu changed another leg, and continued: "It is not necessary for ordinary people to do this, but he is the son of the heavenly family, the son of His Majesty, so he has to learn more. If he causes trouble in the future, it will be difficult for the concubine Let me relinquish the blame. Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and seeking the well-being of the people of the world, and my concubines must teach their children well so that your Majesty will not be distracted."

Li Zhiyun stopped persuading him.

In fact, he is also extremely strict with his sons, basically developing morality, intelligence, physique, art and labor in an all-round way.The smarter the son, the greater the test.

After all, in the future, they will be able to do their best to expand and defend one side.If they have no ability, they can only be raised in Chang'an.

"You still laugh, and you will do the same in the future." Li Zhiyun frightened the little Pixiu.

"No." Little Pixiu pouted, "Sister Jinyang said that the father is the best, so the daughter will not be the same as the second brother."

Of course I'm good, you girls are all treated as treasures, you can't be beaten or scolded, who dares to say that I'm not good.

Concubine Yang Shu said: "If you are not good, my mother will not spare you."

Li Zhiyun withdrew his legs and waved at her. Concubine Yang Shu stood up and leaned against the emperor's arms. The little Pixiu crawled between the two of them, lying in Concubine Shu's arms for a while, and hugging the old father for a while, not to mention how happy it was.

"Why, can't help but teach my precious daughter a lesson?"

"Your Majesty." Concubine Yang Shu gave him a sideways glance, and said, "Don't spoil her, otherwise, when she gets married in the future, the concubine will be scolded by others."

"Who dares to scold you?" Li Zhiyun said: "It is the honor of others to be able to marry my daughter. In this world, not everyone is qualified to be a princess."

The so-called rare is expensive.

Li Shimin has many daughters in history, and the ministers are not willing to marry Li Shimin.

why?
The reason is simple, Princess Li Tang is not easy to get along with.No way, who let the emperor stand behind Princess Li Tang.

The old man is the emperor, who dares to treat the princess badly?

Therefore, only the princess is bad to the son-in-law, and no son-in-law dares to be bad to the princess.

The ministers who admired women with five surnames and seven surnames naturally hoped that their sons could marry daughters from aristocratic families and raise their lintels.

What good can Princess Shang do?

It would be good if the princess kept the etiquette, but if she didn't, the son-in-law would have no place to cry.And you can't divorce, you have to agree with the emperor.

Therefore, you will find that most of Li Shimin's daughters are married to the second son of the meritorious official, that is, the son who is not eligible to inherit the title.

For the ministers, the second son, Princess Shang, can keep the second son rich and honored for the rest of his life, and can also be closely connected with the emperor, and more importantly, let the eldest son escape.

When Li Shimin was the emperor, it was not that he was unaware of this situation, but he was just pretending to be stupid. For him, his daughters, sisters, and princesses of the royal family were all marriage tools.

There is nothing to blame for this, and emperors have done this in history.

But things are different now.

The ministers all knew that the emperor had few daughters, and that the emperor had all kinds of agents' cards in his hands, so no one was tempted.

Everyone knows that marrying the emperor's daughter is definitely a step up to the sky.

However, no one can honor Li Zhiyun's princess yet.

"What is marriage?" Little Pixiu lay between the couple and asked innocently.

Pixiu is different from Jinyang in that he has a gentle temperament, and only jumps out in front of his father, mother, and second elder brother.

"Just leave me and your mother." Li Zhiyun squeezed the little guy's little fleshy hand.

"Don't!" The little guy clasped the hands of Li Zhiyun and Concubine Yang Shu with a snap, and said angrily, "I don't want to marry, I want to be with my father and mother."

"What if I want to marry you?" Li Zhiyun teased her.

Little Pixiu pursed her mouth, tears streaming down her face.

"Bad yeah, bad guy, woo woo woo"

The little guy was so teased that he burst into tears.

Concubine Yang Shu glared at the emperor, "You made her cry, you come to coax her."

"I coax as long as I coax."

Half an hour later, little Pixiu was tired and fell asleep.

Li Zhiyun is also very tired, he will be a big horse for his daughter, and he will not be tired from climbing around.

However, if you are tired, you have to hand in the public grain that should be handed in.

Two hours later, Concubine Yang Shu collapsed in the emperor's arms.

"Your Majesty is really powerful, and even half of my concubines can't stand it."

"You wanted it yourself." Li Zhiyun joked, "I let you rest, and you still don't want to let go."

Concubine Yang Shu stretched out her hand and pinched him, but she really didn't have the strength to speak, she just wanted to rest in her husband's arms.

"It's still early, can I stay with you for a while?" Li Zhiyun asked with a smile.

Concubine Yang Shu groaned and didn't want to talk to him.

Seeing this, Li Zhiyun laughed out loud.

The palace maids were cleaning him and Concubine Yang Shu, and when they heard the emperor's laughter, their faces turned red.

Your Majesty, that's amazing.

As concubine Shu's personal maids, they naturally knew how powerful the emperor was.Many court ladies were actually eaten by the emperor when the emperor and his concubine Shu were going to bed because the emperor didn't enjoy playing to the fullest.
