The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 132 Craftsmanship is very important

"Your Majesty, I feel that there seems to be a problem with this formula itself, or...or what happened in Wude Palace itself was an accident." The first sentence of the warrior Xun after he arrived was to emphasize the formula of gunpowder, and he didn't even look at it. Li Muyun glanced at it.

Fortunately, Li Muyun didn't care about these things, after he had already remembered who the warrior Xun was, for this short-lived ghost who could only live for another four years, a certain killer very tolerantly forgave his ignorance.

"Xiaoyaohou, what do you say!" Li Shimin did not know how many times he had heard the warrior Xun repeat such a conclusion, so he threw the question to Li Muyun who was in a daze.

"Your Majesty, I think there should be something wrong with the production process." Li Muyun said after recovering.

"Nonsense, how can there be problems in the production process."

The samurai Xun was not impressed by Li Muyun, who had no hair.

He was a great "hero" when Li Yuan started his army, and he is definitely a veteran in the Tang Dynasty, so he naturally has the right to look down on "a late learner".

But Li Muyun ignored him, walked to the side of the box that was carried out, took out a so-called 'Sky Thunder' from it, and smashed it on a stone lantern made of white marble beside him with a 'clang' sound.

This bastard must have done it on purpose, Li Shimin looked at the smashed stone lantern with a small corner missing with some distress, the corner of his mouth twitched, and decided that if Li Muyun couldn't say Ziwu Yinmao later, he would discount his legs never mind.

But Li Muyun didn't realize this at all. After smashing off the bamboo knot at one end of the bamboo tube, he poured out the so-called gunpowder inside and looked at it, and he was immediately confused: "This, what is this?"

"What's the matter? Gunpowder." The samurai Xun stretched out his head and said.

"Gunpowder?" Seeing the lump of charcoal not much smaller than a child's fist in his hand, and the sulfur and saltpeter that were about the size of a fingernail, Li Muyun suddenly had the urge to scold his mother.

"What? Is there something wrong with this gunpowder?" Li Shimin also came over at this time, looking at the 'gunpowder' in Li Muyun's hand and asked.

Still have questions?This is a big problem, okay?Li Muyun sighed for a long time, and then said helplessly to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the reason why gunpowder is called gunpowder is because all these things should be ground into powder instead of lumps."

"Powder? You mean the thinner the better?" Li Shimin blinked.

"Yes. That's it." Li Muyun raised his head, glanced at the palace man who was often surrounded by Li Shimin's command, and said, "Hey, so who, you go find a medicine man."

"Ah?" The palace man was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Shimin.

"Go, do as Xiaoyaohou said." Li Er also wanted to see how Li Muyun's gunpowder was produced, so he nodded and sent the palace man out.

Samurai Xun stood aside at this time, also a little dazed.

He wasn't sure if what Li Muyun said was true or not, but he wisely kept his mouth shut.

Lao Wu came from a businessman background, and his principles of dealing with the world were much smoother than some officials from noble clans. Without knowing Li Muyun's details, he would not easily offend such a young man.

Besides, Ya obviously smashed the emperor's stone lantern and didn't see the emperor say anything. This is enough to show that Li Shimin has added his favor and trust to him, and it is really not wise to offend such a person for nothing.

……

Not long, the things Li Muyun needed were brought back by the palace man.

Then under his command, those forbidden soldiers worked together, and it didn't take long to grind the charcoal, saltpeter and sulfur into powder, and put them into a newly brought bamboo tube again.

Li Shimin witnessed all the process with his own eyes. The ingredients have not changed, nor has the formula. The difference from before is that all the raw materials have been crushed.

It's just that this time when Li Shimin wanted to try again, Li Muyun refused to try again, holding the bamboo tube he just made and said persistently: "Your Majesty, this thing was made by my own hands, and its power is not the same as before. language, be more careful!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, if it is true as Xiaoyaohou said, the space here is indeed too small." The warrior Xun also saw some ways at this time, and followed Li Muyun to persuade him.

After all, this kind of thing is for the sake of Li Shimin's safety, even if he finds out that Li Muyun's improved 'Zhentianlei' is still unchanged, there will be no fault.

But if the improved 'Zhentianlei' really increased its power and hurt Li Shimin, even if the emperor wanted to protect him, those courtiers would not let him go.

Fortunately, Li Shimin listened to the persuasion and was not stubborn. Seeing that the two of them did not agree to watch closely, he agreed to their request, moved out of the Hall of Liangyi, and ran to the square outside.

……

"boom……"

'Tiantianlei' reappears in the imperial city.

Countless imperial guards who were alarmed by the explosion swarmed out.

Even Empress Changsun was alarmed and sent people out to see what happened.

But at this moment, Li Shimin couldn't care about those anymore, and asked the warrior Xun: "Did you see it clearly just now?"

"Your Majesty, I understand, let the craftsmen improve the craftsmanship immediately when you go back." The warrior Xun bowed in response.

At this time Li Muyun also came over, glanced at the warrior Xun, thought for a while and said: "Wu Shangshu, in fact, the power of this gunpowder can be improved a little bit, but it requires extremely high production technology, if you have the conditions If so, try to sieve all the ground particles to make them as equal in size as possible."

"Xie Xiaoyao, I understand." The warrior Xun nodded kindly to Li Muyun, and asked Li Shimin to resign.

He doesn't have anything to do here, so it's better to leave time for the emperor and his new favorite, this veteran Wu still has some eyesight.

……

In fact, Li Er is really satisfied with Li Muyun, the legendary "righteous brother".

The donation of horseshoes and gunpowder improved the Tang Dynasty's military strength in a disguised form; moreover, this guy also promised himself to donate [-] catties of refined steel every year, which was a great event that made Li Shimin overjoyed.

Although the steel hasn't been produced yet, the triangular thorn can already prove that this guy can indeed be produced, the only difference is the output.

In all these things, Li Muyun seems to be much better than that old fellow Han Ai, thinking of this, Li Er couldn't help but have the idea of ​​snatching Li Muyun from the old man.After all, such "talents" would be buried in that poor place in Shanyin County, so it would be better to be transferred to Chang'an to play a greater role.

As for the little incident between Li Muyun and Han Ai, in Li Er's opinion, it's nothing serious, at worst, Han Ai will be released and transferred far away, such as Yazhou, Lingnan and other places.

Unknowingly, Li Shimin's thoughts have begun to favor Li Muyun, and he has the idea of ​​taking the opportunity to keep him in Chang'an.
