The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 256 Uncrowned King

Li Muyun really wanted to explain that the facts were not exactly what they thought, but the visitor didn't give him any chance. After rushing in front of him at the fastest speed, he immediately robbed his face: "Li Muyun, tell me, what kind of person are you? What do you mean, you just throw such a big factory to Lao Tzu without hesitation, and you will go there for two months, do you know how busy Lao Tzu has been during this period of time?!"

"By the way, there is also that harvest meeting you made. Tens of thousands of people came to participate. You went to Chang'an without saying a word. Do you know that there are more than 1 people? They almost fought to prevent them It made me and Xiaofang tired and vomit blood, do you know that?"

"You kid easily ran to Chang'an to have fun, have you ever thought about our brothers!"

"Quit, I told you, don't beg me, I won't do it if you beg me, anyway, don't let me help you, kid, I won't do it anymore!"

Li Muyun was very embarrassed, and spread his hands helplessly at the surrounding dandies. Although he was robbed by Wang Jie just now, he finally explained a misunderstanding, and did not let people treat him as the kind of rabbit who likes to cut off his sleeves. Lord.

And the dandies also found it rather interesting to see Li Muyun being scorned wildly, and all of them hid away, arms folded, ready to watch the fun.

Only Gongsun Lan curled her lips slightly, obviously agreeing with Wang Jie's words, but she didn't think Wang Jie could last long, after all, with Li Muyun's lip service, fooling him was like coaxing a child.

But it turns out that Gongsun Lan did not guess wrong. Li Muyun sneaked up and pulled Wang Jie aside, muttering for a while, and when he came back again, a guy who looked like a resentful woman He was already smiling happily, as if nothing had happened.

"Muyun, did these heroes come back with you?" After returning to the crowd again, Wang Jie had changed his face, smiling like a flower, and sneaking glances at Gongsun Lan from time to time.

"That's right, these brothers are famous people in Chang'an, come here, let me introduce you." Li Muyun smiled obscenely, pointed to Wang Jie and said: "Brothers, this is the white-clothed God The descendants of Jian, Wang Jie; Old Wang, these are..."

Chai Lingwu, Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baoqi, and Liu Renshi, the four are either fat or thin, tall or short, black or white, and they are the Four King Kongs in the temple.

But don't care about these four people, but their father has a great reputation. The first three are generals of the Sixteen Guards. Although the latter one is not very famous, Wei Weiqing is also equivalent to the bodyguard of Zhongnanhai in later generations. An existence like a boss cannot be underestimated.

So after sharing their names with each other, Wang Jie didn't dare to underestimate the four of them.

And the dandy group of four also often heard stories from their parents about the loyalty and unparalleled loyalty of the white-clothed arrow. At this time, when they saw the descendants of the white-clothed arrow, they did not dare to neglect them.

After all, they are all young people, and they can talk about many topics with each other, so it didn't take long for them to become close friends.

It has to be said that although all the dandies in the early Tang Dynasty were a little out of tune, they all grew up listening to the stories of Wagang Mountain, and they all had an inexplicable yearning for the loyalty of the Jianghu.If it is pushed back another 30 years, it is estimated that the dandy from Chang'an would not even bother to settle down like Wang Jie.

"How did you make him change his mind?" Gongsun Lan was more curious about what Li Muyun said to Wang Jie, so she came to his side and asked.

"If I tell you, can you keep it a secret?" Li Muyun turned his head and asked back.

"Of course!" Gongsun Lan nodded immediately.

"That's great!" Li Muyun had an unbearable smile on his face, but the next sentence left Gongsun Lan dumbstruck: "Because I can too! Hahaha...".

"Li Muyun, you want to die, don't you?!" Seeing Li Muyun laughing and urging the horse to go away, Gongsun Lan really wanted to pull out the 'Sword of Heaven' behind her and give him a hard blow.

……

Ironworks, yes, it can only be called an ironworks now, because Li Muyun went to Chang'an for nearly two months, and the steelmaking part has obviously been built, but it has not been put into use.

But even so, the dandy group of four was dumbfounded, looking at the countless big iron pieces piled together, they were surprised from ear to ear, and muttered with emotion: "This, how can this play more Less knives."

"These are all pig iron, very brittle, and useless at all. After a few days, the steel mill will be put into operation, so I'll show you some good things." Li Muyun smiled happily as he looked at the mountains of pig iron, and patted them back. Wang Jie, who was a little resentful, said: "Get ready, we will start work the day after tomorrow and start the open hearth furnace. Then I will build you a full steel armor."

"All-steel armor? Wouldn't that be an iron cylinder?" Yuchi said in a low voice.

Cheng Chumo glanced at Yuchi, who was about the same age as him, but a head and a half taller than him: "What I'm worried about is that the all-steel armor is too heavy, and I guess no one can wear it except you."

"Hehe..., that's right, I'm the strongest." Yuchi giggled, seemingly immersed in the scene of wearing a big iron cylinder on the battlefield.

Liu Renshi, on the other hand, is more honest as his name suggests. With greasy sweat on his face, he looked at the small blast furnace that was producing iron and said, "Why do we need to do it the day after tomorrow? Can't we start now? I can't wait."

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. I still have to make preparations. I really want to see how to make steel. I'll come back the day after tomorrow." Li Muyun spread his hands. Although he really wanted to start making steel now, it is obvious that there is not enough manpower right now. This is simply not realistic in the case.

That's it, the dandy group of four left the ironworks with some regrets, each of them packed up their spirits and prepared to return to the barracks.

After all, they all have military posts right now, even though they have already asked Su Lie for leave, they must go back before dark, otherwise, no one will be able to escape the punishment under the Seventeenth Law 54.

After Li Muyun explained some things to Wang Jie, he also left the ironworks and took Gongsun Lan back to the village.

……

Because Su Wanqing came back a day earlier in the cottage, Fang Yizhi and Fatty rushed back from their respective construction sites, but the little old man Li Yuan didn't show anything special, so what should he do? What are you doing, I just have some thoughts.

But after Li Muyun brought Gongsun Lan back from the outside, he was still taken aback by the cottage in front of him. At the entrance of the village, there were two more things like gun towers. They were round and tall, and there were everywhere on them. Some square openings, if there are a few crooked handles on the frame, it will be a devil's turret through and through.

After entering the cottage, the Juyi Hall was still the same, but the ground had turned into a gray concrete floor, which showed that those Xue Yantuo people who were captured during his departure were not lazy!

As for other places, well, basically everything that can be changed has been changed. From a distance, you can see countless red houses hidden among the green pines and cypresses in Houzhai.

"Young village master!" Su Wen, an old man, should have been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time, his beard covered with hoarfrost, he came up to greet Li Muyun when he saw him.

"Uncle Wen, you said you are so old, what are you doing out here, just arrange someone casually." Li Muyun looked at this old man who was picking his nose and eyes at him last year, with a helpless smile on his face.

"It's not a problem, the old man is worried about those bastards below." Su Wen smiled innocently, and glanced behind Li Muyun while talking.

Li Muyun naturally knew what he was looking at, sighed and said, "Brother Su Lie didn't come back with me this time because he was on military affairs."

"Oh! Military affairs!" Su Wen seemed a little disappointed, but the regret was only fleeting, and soon he smiled again and said: "It's better to be busy, if the old village master knows that the young master is now the court's fourth I don't know how happy General Pin will be."

"Uncle Wen, don't worry, brother Su Lie is definitely not just a fourth-rank official, but at least a third-rank general in the future!" Li Muyun comforted Su Wen with a smile, and then said: "Let's go in and talk, After a while, I'm afraid I'll be blown into a popsicle by the mountain wind."

After being reminded by Li Muyun, Su Wen realized that he was here to pick up people, not to chat, and it was a bit outrageous to block the young master of the cottage at the gate, so he patted his forehead and said in a mean-spirited way: "Oh, yes, yes , look at the old man's memory, Shaozhai Lord, don't take offense!"

Of course, Li Muyun didn't think that his contact with this old guy in less than a year would be better than his decades-old relationship. Seeing Su Wen's persistent apology, he waved his hand generously: "Uncle Wen is a man of temperament. People, we juniors will rely on you more in the future!"

"Master Shaozhai has won the prize!" Although Su Wen said it politely, the anxiety on his face faded a lot.

……

Without talking all the way, Li Muyun went around the snowdrifts on the ground, and Li Muyun came to Li Yuan's residence in Houzhai, the Pentagon Building!
The building originally planned by Li Muyun to raise pigs has now become a place where old Li Yuan enjoys his blessings. There are geothermal heat, hot and cold running water, activity rooms, lounges, and washrooms. If you don’t consider the luxurious decoration, even It can be said that it is many times better than the conditions of the palace.

After all, when Li Yuan lived in the palace, charcoal fire was needed to keep warm in winter, not to mention that the room was full of smoke, and there was a danger of being smoked to death if he was not careful.

Moreover, although the palace is well decorated, it is not popular. They all put on a dead face all day long, as if there is no tomorrow if they live today.

But it is different in this cottage. Mahjong is played every day in the activity room. Although the gambling is not very big, at least you can see the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of life.
