Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Chapter 177 Cui Yuan and Li Shimin traveled through the Ming Dynasty together!

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng was stunned on the spot.

It wasn't because Da Qin didn't have Liuli that he had never heard of Liuli.

On the contrary, Liuli, as an exquisite handicraft, was extremely famous in Da Qin.

It can even be said to be one of the symbols of imperial power. Every important festival in the Qin Dynasty, colored glaze must be presented as an important weapon.

Liuli, also called "Ruli", is one of the traditional handicrafts in the Central Plains region. It can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty and has been developed for nearly a thousand years.

The original material for making colored glaze was obtained from the by-products produced when bronzes were cast. After refining and processing, the beautiful colored glaze was made.

By the time of the Qin Dynasty, the production level of colored glaze had become quite mature, and the material had also been changed to artificial crystals of various colors. Crystal works made by high-temperature dewaxing using the bronze lost-wax casting method were often used in important buildings such as palaces, temples, and mausoleums. .

The ritual vessel used by Yingzheng when he ascended the throne was the glazed jade, which was exquisite!

What really shocked Ying Zheng was that such a precious treasure could not be equated with low cost!

If the value of glass is very low, then what else is of high value?

Could it be that Cui Yuan was drunk and saw that he was deliberately grabbing her, so he said such nonsense?

Ying Zheng's eyes were full of suspicion. Seeing this, Cui Yuan immediately put down his glass and rolled his eyes.

"Your Majesty, you were the one who asked me to give my advice before. How come you are also the one who doubted me?"

"Hey~ I've wasted all your efforts. It seems that Your Majesty still doesn't trust me after all. But it's no wonder. After all, I'm just an outsider after all. It's a pity that I've wasted my efforts and made His Majesty unhappy."

"Forget it, let's leave it at that. Your Majesty, just pretend that you haven't said anything."

After saying that, Cui Yuan looked up to the sky with infinite emotion, his eyes showing a trace of loneliness and sadness, as if he had been wronged.

Bang!

Ying Zheng didn't get used to this drama queen, so he just gave him a shudder on the forehead!

"You, the disaster star, don't let me talk like this!"

"It's just aggrieved and pitiful, that's all?"

"You, this great old man, are more pretentious than my harem!"

"Hurry up and tell me about Liuli and let me study it carefully!"

"Whee!"

Cui Yuanjian laughed twice but didn't care.

With his current physique, let alone giving Brother Zheng a hard blow, even if Brother Zheng attacks him directly with his sword, nothing will happen to him.

Thick blood means willfulness!

"It's not that I don't want to tell His Majesty the true situation. It's really difficult to explain this kind of thing for a while."

"Is it possible that I need to explain all the techniques and processes of how to mass-produce colored glaze?"

"Let's not talk about whether your majesty can understand it? Even Shan Chen is not sure whether it can succeed. He is only [-]% to [-]% sure of success."

"It's better to wait until I make them, then take the actual objects and tell His Majesty directly!"

"After all, no matter how fanciful what I say, it's better to take out the real thing and observe the reality!"

When Ying Zheng heard this, his frown slightly relaxed.

"That's true, but I'm impatient."

"And even if a large amount of colored glaze is produced immediately, the situation in the Ming Dynasty is not clear yet, so trade cannot be started immediately."

"Yes!"

Cui Yuan agreed: "Let Li Shimin come first and let him explore the way to the Ming Dynasty first."

"Yeah!" Ying Zheng nodded.

The two discussed some details and preparations, and then issued an order for Li Shimin to rush over.

At the same time, Cui Yuan also began to mobilize the Southern Army to prepare for the construction of Liulicongfang.

Here, close to the coast, workshops were established, and the glaze produced could be sold to other countries through water channels to continue to earn their wealth.

The development potential of Lingnan is extremely huge, otherwise the great old man of the next generation would not draw a circle here.

It's just that there are too many primitive jungles and mountains here, hindering its take-off. What Cui Yuan has to do now is to make it the maritime trade center of Great Qin a thousand years in advance.

……

On the other side, in Handan County, Li Shimin also moved very quickly.

The moment he got the order, he packed his bags, told his subordinates what to do, and immediately headed to Lingnan County.

When he left, the people and officials of Handan City even lined the streets to see him off, extremely reluctant to part with the governor who had only served for two months.

Although Guo Li is not bad, he is really far behind compared to Li Shimin.

Not only did he lead them to defeat the locust plague, he also personally led patrols to arrest corrupt officials who wanted to enrich the country.

Moreover, he went out in person to fight disasters with the people. His presence and voice can be seen and heard in almost all the most difficult places!

Not to mention that anthracite coal was mined. Although Li Shimin said that this was Cui Shenxian's order, he was only the executor.

But the merits are also immeasurable!

"Congratulations to Commander Li! I wish Commander Li a long life and no disasters in his life!"

"Congratulations to Commander Li! I wish Commander Li a long life and no disasters in his life!"

"Congratulations to Commander Li! I wish Commander Li a long life and no disasters in his life!"

The sincere shouts of the people of Handan City rang through the sky, and Li Shimin left Handan all the way.

……

"Your Majesty, Emperor Tang, why are you so happy?"

"Yes, Li Er, this doesn't look like you!"

In front of the temporary palace in Lingnan, Ying Zheng and Cui Yuan took care of Li Shimin.

The dust along the way has left many traces on His Majesty Taizong, but his face is always filled with an eager and satisfied smile.

"It's nothing."

Li Shimin smiled: "I just thought of some happy things, and found the days when I was in the military camp, sharing the joys and sorrows with the soldiers and the common people."

"I have stood too high these years, so high that I almost forgot my original intention, but now I have finally found it again."

"By the way, His Majesty the First Emperor, when this matter is over, can you allow me to continue to serve as the governor of Handan County?"

"Oh? Of course that's no problem."

"But why do you suddenly have such an idea?"

Ying Zheng was confused, and Cui Yuan was also confused as to why Li Shimin had such thoughts.

However, he did not remain confused for long, as he was just a county guard.

If you are appointing others, you will naturally have to carefully assess them, but Li Shimin was Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the creator of the Zhenguan rule.

He served as a small county magistrate, which can only be said to be overqualified and underused. He was a great blessing to all the people of Handan County.

As for the original Handan County Governor Guo Li, he probably wouldn't have any objections after knowing this. He was eager to leave Handan County and go to Xianyang to take up a post or stay with him.

This time, he discovered the clues of the mastermind behind the scenes and followed him to and from Lingnan to capture Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao.

Guo Li has now been promoted to three levels of title in a row, becoming a Duke, the seventh-level title of Great Qin. He is not so majestic these days.

If I knew I didn't have to go back to Handan County, I'm afraid I wouldn't be so happy that I would dance for joy.

"It's nothing, just a sudden thought."

Li Shimin did not explain, and the two of them did not continue to ask questions.

Entering the palace, Ying Zheng and Cui Yuanben wanted to rest for a few days. After all, Li Shimin had just arrived and needed time to recover.

However, Li Shimin was very energetic. Although he was nearly fifty, he showed no sign of tiredness.

He just changed his clothes and equipment and said that he wanted to experience the feeling of traveling through time immediately!

Ying Zheng and Cui Yuan could only smile bitterly, but it was difficult to stop them.

After all, even Li Shimin himself said he was not tired anymore, so what else could they say?

"Is this the space-time gate?"

"Did you use it to find me in the first place?"

Seeing the time and space gate appear with his own eyes was a very shocking thing for Li Shimin. Ying Zheng was very calm, after all, he had seen it many times.

"Cui Shenxian, there is something I can't understand."

Li Shimin looked at Cui Yuan, and in the latter's confused eyes, he asked the question in his heart: "Why do you still need me to explore the way when you are so powerful?"

"It was the same before. It seems that you didn't come to Da Qin immediately, but asked Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to come to Chang'an City first."

This is something Li Shimin has never understood. If Cui Yuan is afraid of the danger behind the door, then why is he so sure that he and Liu Bang will be safe?

"This... it's a bit complicated to say."

Cui Yuan scratched his head and thought about the explanation for a moment before continuing: "You can understand it this way, it's not that I don't want to go, but that after entering, the danger level behind the door will rise sharply!"

"Oh!!!"

Li Shimin is not afraid of backlash, his eyes are shining brightly!

When Cui Shenxian goes in, the danger level behind the door will skyrocket! ?

It feels so exciting!

“It’s even more time to go in like this!”

"Life is just an adventure. How could you let it go if you have the opportunity?"

"Come on, come on! Let's enter this space-time gate together!"

As Li Shimin said that, he pulled the confused Cui Yuan and walked towards the portal happily.

Cui Yuan: "???"

"Your Majesty Li Er, are you crazy, or am I crazy!"

"Are you serious?"

"I tried to use my hands once before, but I was chopped off within a few breaths!"

"Let me go in, you will be in extreme danger!"

"What are you afraid of!"

Li Shimin was still very confident, patting his chest and promising: "Then you will have to go in by yourself, and there will be no life or death!"

"Come in with me now. I am absolutely safe. You are alive and dead. Once we neutralize it, won't it mean that it becomes dangerous but not fatal?"

Cui Yuan: "..."

It seems that this is indeed the case.

"How about it?"

Li Shimin continued to bewitch, with a face filled with anticipation: "Go in! Don't you want to see what the Ming Dynasty is like?"

He understood that if Cui Yuan did not agree, he could not force Cui Yuan away.

After all, the power gap between the two is really too big, and they must launch a verbal offensive to make Cui Yuan willing to follow him.

"In the previous time travels, you asked Liu Bang to explore the way. Although you later personally went to the Han Dynasty and my Tang Dynasty, you were not the only one to set foot there after all."

"Obviously this is your time and space gate, but every time because of this reason, you miss the first opportunity to step in. Are you willing to do so?"

"Now that such a good opportunity is in front of me, and I'm not afraid of being implicated by you, what else do you have to worry about?"

Li Shimin was worthy of being an emperor, and he was a ruthless man who could compete with Ying Zheng for the position of emperor throughout the ages.

His ability to confuse people is almost as good as Ying Zheng's.

When Ying Zheng heard this, he also laughed and cheered: "The Emperor Tang is right."

"Some problems can't be solved by running away. Could it be that Emperor Tang invited you to try to face the dangers of the Ming Dynasty head-on."

"And your physique is so powerful, even if you are immediately pierced by thousands of arrows when you enter, you will not die."

"You won't die immediately, but it will still hurt!"

Cui Yuan rolled his eyes wildly when he heard this.

Brother Zheng's ability to control fire was all learned from that Lezi man!

Just don't take it too far!

"Okay, okay! Don't rush me!"

"I'll go! Can't I go?"

Cui Yuan was finally convinced. Although his reason told him not to do such a thing, his sensibility still wanted to try it.

Just like the original choice to resist the dog system.

If you don’t let me go, will I not go?

Then wouldn’t I be very shameless!

"Let's go!"

"Let me see what's behind this door!"

"That's right! Hahaha!"

This time, Cui Yuanan couldn't bear it any longer and walked into the portal with Li Shimin, who was also looking forward to it!

Ying Zheng watched the two people disappear with a delighted smile on his lips.

……

puff!

The two passed through a thin layer of water film, and the scenery around them suddenly changed.

After regaining stability, the scene of Ying Zheng and Lingnan Palace had completely disappeared, but was replaced by a cool and deserted room.

"This...this is the woodshed of a certain house?"

Li Shimin looked around with great curiosity. Beside them, there were piles of chopped firewood, a stove and a large iron pot with a lid and a fragrant smell.

"It should be, but why is there no one here?"

Cui Yuan stepped forward, opened the lid, and found a large pot of mushroom stewed chicken inside.

"This dish is still being cooked. There must have been talented people here not long ago, right?"

"And where is the most important danger?"

Cui Yuan couldn't understand, and Li Shimin couldn't understand even more.

Everything is as usual here, so why is there suddenly no one there? Could there be some emergency that caused them all to leave?

The two of them were completely lost in their thoughts. At this moment, the door of the woodshed was suddenly pushed open by Xiao Si, who was about thirteen or fourteen years old.

He was stunned for a moment when he saw the two of them, and then looked down and discovered the unusual outfits of Cui Yuan and Li Shimin!

Fortunately for Cui Yuan, because of his strong physique, he only wore a black silk robe and a high crown, like a graceful scholar.

Because Li Shimin is still a mortal, he is fully armed with armor and holds a sword in one hand, showing extraordinary prowess.

He even wears a mask around his waist. Whenever there is danger, he will put it on immediately without leaving any loopholes.

Xiao Si was bought by Hu Mansion since he was a child and became a servant here. Where has he seen such a scene?

This Li Shimin is just like Guan Gong from the drama!

He immediately stuck his buttocks out, stepped forward, nodded and bowed and said, "Are you two adults hungry? Please wait a moment, Xiaoqing will send fruits to Madam first, and then she will go back and prepare them for you."

"No."

Li Shimin shook his head and said straight to the point: "Where have all the people here gone?"

"Went to the old house!"

"You two adults must have just arrived. A well in the old residence that has dried up for a long time suddenly gushes out a spring of sweet wine. This is a great auspiciousness!"

"Now the young master, madam and servants are all in the old house!"

"Old house? Take us there immediately..."

"and many more!"

Just when Li Shimin was about to ask him to lead the way, Cui Yuan interrupted, with an extremely solemn look on his face.

"Excuse me, is this the residence of Hu Weiyong, Prime Minister Hu?"
