Became a prodigy in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 236 The Arrogant Tubo Prince

"What's important?" Li Er asked quickly.

Cheng Chuli laughed and said: "The important thing is, your majesty, you have lost money, and you are still short of 10,000+ pennies!"

Forehead?
Everyone immediately became a black line.

Cheng Chuli is probably the only one who dares to ask Li Er for gambling debts.

Li Er blushed, and shouted at Wang De: "Wang De, go to the internal bank to get the money, and make it up."

Now Li Er is also so poor that he only has money left, and he is very generous.

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

Wang De responded and left.

Only now did Cheng Chuli smile and said: "Your Majesty, I have great news for you. Our spring has been successfully produced. Hehe..."

"Really?"

Li Shimin and all the ministers' eyes lit up.

What this spring represents, they know very well in their hearts.

Currently, two to three million crossbows have been produced.Only this batch of springs is missing.

As long as the spring is installed, it can be pulled to the border to fight against the Turks.

There is nothing wrong with the fact that the Turkic people are very good at archery.

But shoot arrows right away.How difficult is it to operate?Just make up your mind and you will know.

Also, let alone shooting arrows on horseback, there are not many archery masters in themselves.

Strong crossbows are designed to restrain them.

At that time, 10,000+ crossbowmen equivalent to archery masters will arrive on the battlefield, it will be invincible!

Just thinking about it makes one's blood boil!
To put it bluntly, this batch of springs is the only thing missing in the Turkic battle.

Some people want to say, don't they have bombs?
It is not wrong for them to have bombs, but the output is low.People in this era are too superficial about the use of bombs.

This is the first time a bomb has been used, and it is not very successful.

It can even be said that they are simply placed in the warehouse, and a few are taken out after a long time to scare the enemy with their voices.Precious!

It's not that those generals are stupid, but it's hard to reverse their thinking.

Li Shimin asked with a trembling voice: "Can it be mass-produced? Is the quality acceptable?"

Cheng Chuli nodded and said: "Yes, the quality is very good. Would you like to try it yourself, Your Majesty?"

"Okay. Haha... Li Junxian, put on a martial arts field..."

Li Shimin laughed loudly.

"Yes."

Li Junxian ran over and took the peerless sword from Li Shimin's hand.Secretly pinned it around his waist.That's when I ran to make arrangements.

That way, it looks like a thief, as if afraid of being discovered.

However, no matter how well he concealed it, his behavior still fell into the eyes of everyone, making everyone envious.

No one dared to say anything, and no one dared to go up and grab him.

Because, this knife was originally given to him by Cheng Chuli.

Cheng Yaojin slapped Cheng Chuli on the shoulder, causing Cheng Chuli to stagger.

"Hey, yo, my baby, look at father, he can't do anything lightly or hard..."

Cheng Yaojin realized that he had hit hard, and quickly hugged Cheng Chuli in distress.

Said: "Son, with such a treasured sword, why don't you think of your father immediately?"

Cheng Chuli rubbed his shoulders, and shouted angrily: "Brother Baolin, brother Baolin..."

Yuchi Baolin ran up, untied the precious saber from her waist, handed it to Cheng Yaojin and said, "General Cheng, this is prepared for you by Duke Xiaoguo."

"Oh, my God... my precious sword..."

Cheng Yaojin directly threw Cheng Chuli to the ground.He took the treasured knife and pulled it out with a brush, grinning and laughing there.

Fortunately, Cheng Chuli had practiced and stood firmly on the ground with his feet, otherwise he would be ashamed.

"God, earth, why did I give birth to a father like you?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Shimin on the side immediately burst out laughing.

Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin shouted angrily: "What are you talking about, kid? Did your father give birth to you or you gave birth to your father? You have to make it clear, and it's against you."

Cheng Chuli said angrily: "None, I was born by my mother."

"Stinky boy, if it wasn't for your father..."

Cheng Yaojin suddenly couldn't continue speaking. Here, he couldn't say it well!
"Ha ha ha ha……"

This time, it wasn't just Li Shimin who laughed, the other bosses also laughed.

Soon, everyone came to the martial arts arena. This time, Li Shimin played in person.

Several people lifted a whole spring from the back of a pickup truck.

When Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda and the others saw it, the muscles on their faces twitched endlessly.

These guys are so annoying, it's just springs, why use such a good carton to pack them.

In their hearts, these cartons are much more precious than these springs.

Cheng Chuli personally picked up a box of springs and opened the box.The oil paper and spring inside were exposed.

Li Chengqian ran up immediately, not afraid of getting his hands dirty, took out the spring from the cardboard box, and put it on a crossbow.Then it was handed over to Li Shimin, and he threw the carton on the ground casually.

Wei Zheng and Kong Yingda ran up immediately, trying to grab the paper box.

There is no way, paper is too precious in their hearts.

Although there are very good papers sold in Chang'an City now, their love for paper still cannot be changed.

Cheng Chuli couldn't stand it any longer, and said to them: "Lord Wei Zheng, don't grab it, I'll send you a box of the best paper for each of you later."

"Really?"

Both of them looked at Cheng Chuli nervously, afraid that they had heard wrong.

"Of course, I, Cheng Chuli, never lie to anyone."

Damn it, you're the best liar, okay?
The two quickly said, "Then thank you so much Duke Zhong."

As for Li Shimin, he had already fired his bow and arrow, and the first arrow shot a nine ring.

Immediately aroused applause from the crowd.

In fact, Li Shimin's ability to shoot nine rings is nothing at all.

Not to mention that he was originally the emperor immediately.Because he likes it, during this period of time, he has spent a lot of time practicing this thing.

Therefore, this moment is purely Li Shimin's acting moment.

The reason why the first arrow shot the nine rings was because he was adjusting, and the next step was awesome.

Almost every arrow hit ten rings, which made everyone flatter, and made Li Shimin very happy.

After pretending to be coercive, Li Er said directly to Cheng Chuli: "Mr. Zhong, you have made great contributions this time. Tell me, what do you want me to reward you for?"

Cheng Chuli quickly said: "Your Majesty, this time it's not the little minister who made the meritorious service, but Li Zhen and his team. They made the knife and the spring. If the Emperor wants to reward him, let him do it!"

"what!"

Li, who was standing next to him, was stunned.

For such a great achievement, Cheng Chuli actually gave it to him as long as he said it.

You know, everything was provided to him by Cheng Chuli.Although it doesn't mean that changing pigs can be done, at least it can be done as long as people are not stupid.

But Cheng Chuli didn't want any credit, and gave it all to him.He feels ashamed!
And Li Zhen's father, Li Ji, was also dumbfounded at this time.

For such a great achievement, Cheng Chuli gave it to his son as he said.It's just unbelievable.

Even brothers like them who have fought together on the battlefield for more than ten years can't do it!

"it is good."

Li Shimin really had a headache, he really didn't know what to do with the reward.

Now that he wants to push it to Li Zhen, it will be easy to handle.

Li Shimin said loudly: "Li Zhen stepped forward to listen to the seal."

Li Zhen quickly ran up and knelt down on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, I don't dare to be a meritorious minister, I really don't dare to be! All the items and technologies were provided by Duke Zhong. If there were no such things, I, Li Zhen, would be studying for a lifetime. It is impossible to research it."

"May the emperor reward Zhong Guogong. Li Zhen can be regarded as a bit of hard work at best. Don't dare to covet this great achievement!"

Li Ji on the side was very satisfied with his son's performance.He stroked his beard with a smile on his face and watched all this.

He really didn't expect that Li Ji would show off the limelight today.

These military generals, the place where they show off is on the battlefield, and the chances of showing off in this kind of place are very few.

This son, this is the cow coming home and knocking on the door, so awesome!
Feeling the envy and envy of everyone who dare not hate, Li Ji felt that his life had reached its peak.

As for Changsun Wuji and others, they all gave their son a hard look.

Hate that iron is not steel!

Why is Li Zhen so good, how about you?

Li Shimin laughed loudly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, let's do this! I will make you the male of Wannian County, Li Zhen, and I will give you a hundred taels of gold."

For Li Zhen's contribution, it is already very good to have this award.

If Cheng Chuli didn't have the help, and he made it himself, at least he would be able to become a Marquis directly.

Li Zhen had no choice, the emperor's golden mouth had already opened his mouth, and it was impossible for him to refuse.

He could only kowtow and say: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

Haha, with this spring, the Turkic war should end as soon as possible.

However, Prince Gongri Gongzan and Princess Jilai Super Awesome don't know!
They are trying to use this to threaten Li Shimin and give them corn seeds!
Yes, it doesn't matter if you make love or not.The important ones are the corn seeds.

Soon Li Shimin received the news.Prince Gongri Gongzan, Princess Rilai Chaozan and Lu Dongzan are on their way to Datang.

After receiving the news, Li Shimin was very satisfied.

In his mind, Prince Gongri Gongzan and Princess Rilai Chaozan sent Lu Dongzan here, and they must have been sent here for labor reform.

Two days later, the Tubo prince and princess came to Datang.

No matter what people say, they are still princes and princesses, and Li Shimin has to meet him no matter what.

Hearing that the Tubo princes and his party had arrived outside the imperial city, Li Shimin said to Cheng Yaojin and other ministers: "My dear friends, go out and greet them! Don't let us in the Tang Dynasty lose our courtesy."

Cheng Yaojin and others agreed, and left with them.

Soon, a group of people came to Suzaku's gate with the guard of honor.

Cheng Yaojin looked up, only to see a young man in his teens, holding his head high with high ambition.Riding on a tall horse, he looked at Cheng Yaojin and his group with disdain.

Are these the courtiers of Datang?It turned out to be nothing more than that!Seeing me, Gongri Gongzan, coming, you have to run over to greet me.

"Ha ha……"

Beside Gongri Gongzan, a eagle-nosed woman who is more proud than Gongri Gongzan is also riding on the same horse.He looked at Cheng Yaojin and his group coldly.

Only Lu Dongzan dismounted and prepared to walk.

At this moment, Lu Dongzan's heart was also very angry, these two are really masters!
He persuaded them to get off their horses and walk into the palace, but these two insisted on giving Datang a blow.No matter how hard he persuaded him, he couldn't persuade him!

At this moment, he regretted bringing these two to Datang.

But he is a subject, others are masters, and if they don't listen to him, there is nothing he can do.

The guard of honor brought by Cheng Yaojin lined up on both sides, and greeted Gongri Gongzan and his party according to the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty for welcoming foreign princes and princesses.

Cheng Yaojin, Wei Zheng's grandson Wuji and other ministers stepped forward.

Wei Zheng stepped forward, cupped his hands to Prince Gongri Gongzan and Princess Jlai Chaozan, and said, "Welcome Prince Gongri Gongzan and Princess Rilai Chaozan. I am Wei Zheng, the imperial historian. Please dismount and walk into the palace. Your Majesty." I am waiting for you two in the Tai Chi Hall!"

What Wei Zheng said was very polite.

However, Prince Gongri Gongzan didn't give him any face.

I saw him sneering and saying: "You are a small Tang country, there are so many rules. It's a pity that these rules are used to restrict you. Gu is a noble Tubo prince. These rules are invalid for Gu. Please step aside, my lord. I just want to go to the palace to meet your emperor."

Hearing this, the expressions of Wei Zheng and the others changed dramatically.

On each head, there are a bunch of question marks!
This Tubo prince, who gave him the confidence?
Ok!

We Datang people are very cultivated.It is impossible for a dog to bite you, so you also run to bite the dog, right?

Wei Zheng endured his sulking and said, "Prince Gongri Gongzan, please dismount and enter the palace to face the saint."

"Ha ha……"

Prince Gongri Gongzan said with a sneer: "Lord Wei, Gu tells you that I am a noble Tubo prince. What you do is an insult to Gu. Aren't you afraid of causing a war between the two countries?"

"I tell you, don't forget, your country of Tang is fighting the Turks. Master Wei, are you still sure you want to dismount and walk into the palace alone? Get out of the way..."

At the end of Gongri Gongzan's speech, he let out a loud shout, which directly shocked Wei Zheng.

But Wei Zheng is Wei Zheng, he will definitely be the first to take the lead in maintaining things like rules.

Facing Prince Gongri Gongzan's provocation, he did not flinch at all, and said with a straight neck: "Prince Gongri Gongzan, since you have come to our Tang Dynasty, you must follow our Tang Dynasty's rules, please Gongri Gongzan The prince dismounted and entered the palace on foot."

Prince Gongri Gongzan couldn't bear it anymore.There was an angry cold light in his eyes.

"Wei Zheng, Gu asked you to get out of the way, did you hear that? If you don't get out of the way, I'm going to trample over it."

Prince Gongri Gongzan is determined to enter the palace on horseback.If he dismounted and walked in today, he would be humiliated.

Therefore, he didn't care who Wei Zheng was in front of him.Even if he was really trampled to death, the emperor of Datang would not dare to do anything to him.

Because he was determined that Li Shimin would not dare to go to war with the Turks and Tubo.
