Great Tang princess

Chapter 872 The never-changing smiling face (finale)

Li Yuechen really didn't expect that the elder brother would be so self-willed. The new emperor was enthroned yesterday, but he left today.

But if you think about it carefully, maybe you have suppressed it too much for so many years.

After all, he didn't want to be emperor at first, but he was forced to sit on the dragon chair for more than ten years. Now he finally let go, and finally he can let go and have fun.

That being the case, go out and play if you want. Anyway, sister-in-law Wei Lian'er has a relatively stable personality, so she won't let him do anything dangerous.

"When I left this morning, Grandpa said that he wanted to go windsurfing..." Li Chongrun continued.

"You tell him to take it easy and wait until summer to play. Besides, does he know how to swim?" Li Yuechen replied with some helplessness.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I have arranged someone to protect Grandpa, nothing will go wrong!" Li Chongrun smiled lightly.

Of course, Li Chongrun knew what his father was like, and he would definitely not allow him to do anything dangerous.

"Then what are you going to do here today?" Li Yuechen sat down beside him and asked.

"Hey, isn't it the New Year's Eve feeling boring, come to talk to my aunt." Li Chongrun replied.

"What about the queen? Don't care?"

Li Chongrun shrugged: "I've been tired the past few days, let her rest alone, I'll have dinner at my aunt's place today."

It's not a big problem to eat, but the dignified emperor went to his aunt's house for dinner on the first day of the new year... This operation is really a bit unexpected.

However, Li Yuechen didn't say anything. Instead, he stood up and walked to the bookshelf next to him. He took out a thread-bound book that was less than two centimeters thick and handed it to him.

"This is..." Li Chongrun took it with both hands, not knowing what it meant.

"The "Notes on the Construction of the Tang Dynasty" that you have always wanted to read will be given to you starting from today. In the future, it will be passed down from generation to generation in the hands of every emperor." Li Yuechen replied with a smile.

Looking at the thread-bound book in his hand, Li Chongrun looked confused: "My aunt has been writing this book for nearly 20 years, and this is the only thin copy?"

"What are you thinking about? This is the catalog!" Li Yuechen pointed to the big iron box next to his desk with his chin, "That's the real content! Send someone to take it back to the palace."

Hearing his answer, Li Chongrun was relieved, and it was not beyond his understanding.

He knows this book. My aunt started planning it more than 20 years ago and wrote it for nearly 20 years.

"Let me see?"

"Look, it's the emperor now, take a look!" Li Yuechen smiled and raised his chin, letting him do whatever he wanted.

With permission, Li Chongrun first looked through the catalog in his hand, feeling that there were many terms that he could not understand.

For example, there is a thing called a missile in the weapon chapter, but after thinking about it for a long time, I don’t know what it is.

Of course, this is just a table of contents and has not been written in detail. I think the real content should be clearly explained, right?
It was even said that he saw a digital electronic article in it, but he didn't even know what it was.

But seeing that there is a camera inside, it should be a similar product.

But I can't figure out what this camera has to do with electricity.

Out of curiosity, Li Chongrun opened the box and saw the densely packed thread-bound books inside, and suddenly felt dizzy.

There are at least a few hundred books in this box. I don't know when I will see them.

So according to the table of contents, he first took out the stack of books on weapons and read them.

If you read it in order, you can barely understand it.

Nowadays, there is a front-loading smoothbore cannon, and Li Chongrun is aware of this.

In the following pages, it is explained that the next step is to install the rifled gun in the rear, and at the same time draw a picture, the content is very detailed.

Li Chongrun understood what this meant at a glance, but it seemed that the shape of the shell would change, and the specifications would be more precise.

At the same time, there is a branch, which is a mortar mounted on the ground, which seems to be installed in the front, and a picture is drawn next to it.

Looking back, the tank is also introduced in detail. This thing is similar to what I imagined at the beginning, but judging from this simple picture, it is much more advanced than what I imagined at the beginning.

And after the tanks, they began to enter the missile level.

However, this is also divided into sizes, and it enters the ranks of missiles. According to the order, we will introduce the small ones first. The name is individual shoulder-launched small missiles.

Then there are vehicle-mounted missiles. At this scale, they belong to beyond-visual-range operations.

So launching this weapon requires the assistance of computers and satellites.

Seeing this, Li Chongrun was stupefied, and found the contents of the computer and the satellite for comparison.

But the more I looked at it, the more confused I became, and I felt that my brain was starting to heat up.

Even though there is a picture next to it, it is still difficult to imagine what it is.

For example, the introduction of this satellite: Flying around the earth like the moon, it can transmit various signals...

Just looking at this description, I can't even imagine what it is.

He turned his head suspiciously: "Auntie, I don't understand."

"It's okay if you don't understand it, because the current technological system has not yet developed to that point. I'm afraid you won't be able to see this thing in your life..." Li Yuechen said leisurely while drinking tea.

Li Chongrun had a complicated expression on his face: "However, this book didn't explain how to make it."

"I don't know how to make it." Li Yuechen said with a smile, "I know it but I don't know why."

"But...there is only the result without the process, how to make it?"

"It can only wait for the technology system to reach that stage. When the time comes, tell people who understand, and they will naturally understand."

In Li Yuechen's view, this is definitely feasible.

For example, when the level of science and technology has reached the point where you can know that the moon is moving due to the relationship between gravity, and the knowledge system reaches the point where you can calculate how fast and how much power is needed to make something fly around the earth.

As long as the industrial level can keep up, these people will naturally think that it is feasible and worth trying when the concept of satellite is proposed at this time.

Technology is advancing little by little, and it is impossible to eat a fat man in one step.

The same is true for Li Yuechen who made roller skates when he was a child.

Because there are already wheels in this era, it is feasible to propose the concept of bearings at this time.

With the bearing wheels and the engine, it is also feasible to propose the concept of combining them to make a motor vehicle at this time.

As for other details, that can be gradually improved.

Just like Li Chongrun now, he can understand rifled guns, because there are already smoothbore guns at this time.

Tank can barely understand it, but the individual rocket launcher is starting to be a bit too much for him, not to mention a lot of stuff behind it that he has no idea what it is.

That's why Li Yuechen told him that he might not be able to see it in this life.

Then Li Chongrun looked through it again, but as he looked at it, his expression became more and more complicated.

This box of books can be said to describe various things that may appear in the future and their corresponding functions from all aspects.

From the military, to people's livelihood, medical care, systems, etc...

It can be said that from these books, we can fully see what life will be like in the future.

It even includes various types of countries with different regime models that may appear in the future world.

Legend has it that the Book of Changes is an ancient book that peeps into the future of heaven. When it was written, ghosts cried and gods howled, causing strange changes in the sky...

Of course, I don’t know if this is true or not, but for Li Chongrun, he has also read the Book of Changes, but it is far from the shock of seeing such a box of books.

Through these books, we can already see what the future world will look like.

The details are simply too terrifying, as if... Seeing it with my own eyes.

Thinking of this, he turned his head slightly, and looked at Li Yuechen with a strong sense of awe in his eyes: "Aunt...won't it be a fairy?"

"what for?"

"My nephew can't believe that the contents of this book are fabricated out of thin air. Maybe my aunt has seen it with her own eyes? The scene after a thousand years!"

"There are some things, it's useless to ask them clearly, and you shouldn't pay attention to this aspect." Li Yuechen held up the teacup calmly, "In short, this book can only be passed down from generation to generation in the hands of every emperor in the future. ?"

"Yes! Nephew understands!"

Li Chongrun agreed, and then asked: "But my nephew is a little unclear, what is the meaning of this network?"

"Why are you curious about this thing?"

"The book says that this thing can transmit information across domains and thousands of miles. It seems to be much more powerful than the current telephone..." Li Chongrun replied, "My nephew is curious about this."

"Okay, since I'm curious, I'll tell you about these things in the future." Li Yuechen smiled, "The so-called Internet is the most important invention in the future, and it bears the heavy responsibility of world communication..."

Hearing that she started to tell, Li Chongrun hastily added some water to her cup, sat beside her and listened attentively to her talk.

It was the same when I was a child, a group of people sat together and listened to my aunt telling stories.

The only difference is that today's story is different, it is a story that will actually happen in the future.

……

Such a talk lasted until noon, and then Li Chongrun stayed at the princess mansion for dinner.

The emperor came here for dinner on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Whether it was Pei Qingwan, the two sisters, including Shangguan Wan'er, they were a little surprised.

Fortunately, Li Chongrun didn't have any airs, he said with a smile, "Don't think too much, I just came here for a meal today."

Then he turned around and smiled at Shangguan Wan'er: "Shangguan Chief Assistant, there is no need to be formal. Today is just for eating and chatting."

"Since your Majesty has said so, I must obey your orders!" Shangguan Wan'er replied.

Then everyone began to eat, and the atmosphere at the table was quite good. Although Li Chongrun was an emperor, he could not see any majesty here, only the politeness and respect of the juniors towards the elders.

During the meal, Li Yuechen suddenly said: "Speaking of which, there is one more thing. Now I am under the Taiping Group, and gradually arrange for the royal family to take over."

"Huh?" Li Chongrun, who was gnawing on a piece of pork ribs, was taken aback for a moment, "Aren't aunts in charge of my aunt's company?"

"How old is she? Now that the company is getting bigger and bigger, you can't let her continue to be troubled?" Li Yuechen said, "So you have to arrange for my royal family's children to learn management and operation. In the future, this will belong to the entire royal family. enterprise……"

Now Li Yuechen himself doesn't know how rich he is. These will be gifts to the royal family in the future.

Sister-in-law Pei Qingwan is not young anymore, and she is not as energetic as she was when she was young. It is time for the royal family to gradually take over.

Hearing what she said, Li Chongrun immediately agreed: "Yes, my nephew will do it when I get back."

"In addition, after the New Year and the new emperor's new policy, you can consider the complete abolition of slavery. Then you and Wan'er can slowly discuss it." Li Yuechen said.

This is a policy that was considered many years ago, but the time was not ripe at that time, so it has never been implemented.

But now Datang has begun to develop in all aspects, and it is almost time to free the slaves.

Later, slaves were abolished and replaced by servants.It's not that we can no longer have servants at home, it's just that the buyout system has been changed to the employment system.

Most of the aristocratic families can still get this part of the money. As for those who don’t want to take it, there is no need to worry about the slaves being driven away. Today’s Datang can digest these labors very well.

Of course, this matter is not as simple as it sounds, and the details need to be discussed slowly between the emperor and the cabinet.

After all, abolishing slaves means improving human rights, and there will definitely be some resistance in the process.

The implementation of policies should be as gentle as possible, and mandatory implementation is a last resort.

After eating, Li Yuechen talked a lot with his nephew on this issue, including various policies and the like.

Li Chongrun was curious about how there would be so many countries with different regime structures in the future, and Li Yuechen also told him the advantages and disadvantages of them.

And this chat on the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year has completely set the tone for the future of Datang.

……

In the evening, Li Chongrun got up and went back to the palace after dinner.

After getting in the car, his expression was contemplative all the time. The conversation with his aunt today gave him too much information, and it would take a long time to digest it.

In the Princess Mansion, Li Yuechen was sitting on the sofa side by side with Shangguan Wan'er, drinking tea while admiring the starry sky outside the window.

"Speaking of which, has His Highness's ideal been realized?" Shangguan Wan'er suddenly asked.

"If you really want to talk about it, it's okay." Li Yuechen smiled, "Although it is being realized."

Shangguan Wan'er thought for a while: "Then among them, I... can I help?"

"More than that, it's been a huge help! Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?" Li Yuechen turned around and asked.

"This is a bit emotional. Now His Highness's ideal has not been fully realized, but I am already old..."

"Me too. Rather, thank you for growing old with me. At least for the first half of my life, I am very happy to have you here!"

After hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er smiled slightly: "Your Highness will make me happy as always... The only regret in this life is that I haven't had enough time with His Highness. It's a pity that I'm old and time is running out..."

Hearing these sad words suddenly, Li Yuechen was taken aback, and was about to comfort her, but she continued to ask: "It's just that I don't know if I can be with His Highness in the next life..."

"The next life, it's a bit far away..." Li Yuechen said looking at the starry sky.

But then he held her hand, looked into her eyes, and said firmly: "But don't worry, no matter where you are, I will definitely find you!"

Shangguan Wan'er turned her head, and under the starry sky, she saw a familiar smiling face.

That smiling face, compared with decades ago, still seems to have not changed at all!
