Chapter 14 Li Er's Pride

Hearing his wife's question, Li Shimin frowned slightly.

Xiaoqingguan had already been searched inside and out by his people, and by the way, he also found the bow and crossbow described by Chang Sun Chong that day.This crossbow is quite different from the crossbow used by Datang at this time, and it looks a bit weird, but it is extremely accurate and powerful.

The craftsmen and supervisors studied it for several days, but they still didn't quite understand why this seemingly crude crossbow had such great power.

Although I don't quite understand the principle, I intuitively feel that this thing is a good thing, and it will improve the existing weapons.Li Shimin has also seen that bow and crossbow. Although he is an emperor on horseback with great military exploits, he still doesn't understand the mystery of this crossbow.

In fact, it's not complicated, it's just that Yang Xiaoran installed an eccentric wheel on the crossbow.Adding an eccentric wheel can save effort and speed up. Through the irregular parabolic track of the eccentric wheel, the speed of the bowstring is accelerated. In this way, it is faster than Datang's recurve crossbow. bigger!
This is the biggest difference between the modern composite crossbow and the traditional recurve crossbow. Compared with the composite crossbow, the recurve crossbow with the same power is smaller and more convenient to carry.And Yang Xiaoran made more than one change, even the arrow path has been changed a bit, using a straight arrow path, which is a bit similar to a smoothbore barrel, and the arrow is fired halfway against the arrow path.This can improve the error tolerance rate of arrows, and even arrows with poor workmanship can be greatly improved.

She even changed the launch structure, using trigger pull, so that the launch will be easier and easier to use.

Some insignificant changes may not look complicated, but they involve all aspects of knowledge. The ancients did not systematically summarize the physical knowledge related to mechanical power. The doorway can't make it clear.

Just this point made Li Shimin feel that Yang Xiaoran's master might not be simple.Because of Yang Xiaoran's age, the world will automatically ignore her, even Li Shimin is no exception.No one would believe that this crossbow would come from the hands of a ten-year-old girl.

What interests Li Shimin is that if it is equipped with skilled craftsmen and good materials, the bow and crossbow should be able to exert greater power.

It's just that when I think that the maker of this crossbow has passed away, I can't help feeling sorry for it. It's a pity that I missed it at such a big age!
"This bow and crossbow is good. The craftsmen and supervisors also tried to make a few, but I'm afraid it won't work if they want to equip the whole army in a short time..."

Li Shimin's eyes were a little gloomy. After all, it was because of lack of money.

Seeing that Li Shimin was in a low mood, the eldest grandson hurriedly comforted him: "Erlang, I can't make bows and crossbows for the time being, but it's good to see the pancakes. These days have passed, and it's such a hot day, it's not rotten, and it tastes delicious. , if it is better to let the soldiers of the army eat this kind of dry food than that dry hard pancake..."

After a pause, he frowned again and said: "I don't know what the extraterrestrial expert did. I think that Xiaoqingguan is quite desolate, but the pancakes are very sweet. This candy is not cheap!"

Li Shimin nodded incredulously, but then his brows became looser, "It can't be made into sweet food, but it can be made into salty food. This pancake is a good thing, and it can be made immediately and sent to Lanzhou. This time, Yizhen drove the Qiang people away." He has to run all over the mountain, these days are hard for him."

After a pause, he snorted coldly: "Hmph! This group of aliens has nothing good. The salt road has been cut off, and the soldiers can only use vinegar cloth as condiments. Even Yizhen is no exception. The soldiers who have been short of salt for a long time are weak. , Limbs are weak, although Yizhen is chasing after the remnants of the Qiang people with the power of a great victory, it is still very difficult."

Speaking of this, he looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, with a hint of hostility in his eyes, "Even if I wiped out the treasury, I have to let the soldiers eat salt, as long as all the Qiang people are wiped out, I can deal with that bastard Jieli wholeheartedly." ! How much has been taken from me, and I want him to pay back twice as much!"

As Li Shimin said, he slapped his palm on the table vigorously, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, "Tuyuhun, Goguryeo, hehe, anyone who dares to harbor dissatisfaction with my Tang Dynasty will be eliminated one by one!"

"The concubine has reduced the expenses of the harem, saving more than [-] guan in money and food. The concubine has nothing to do, so I can only do these trivial things for Erlang."

The eldest grandson is also concerned, and her husband is having a hard time. Although she is the mother of the country, how can her life be easier in this era where her husband is the heaven?Seeing her husband working hard but not changing his pride is both proud and sad.

His Majesty Li Er's mood improved after the eldest grandson's sincere confession, he breathed a sigh of relief, held his eldest grandson's hand and said affectionately: "Guanyin maidservant, you and I became husband and wife when we were young, and share weal and woe, how can I not know how you treat me? Marry a wife and marry a virtuous man, it is a great gift from heaven for the people of the world to marry you as a wife in this life."

After looking at each other affectionately, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing again, "Speaking of which, Yizhen is also a blessed girl. I heard that she was extremely intelligent since she was a child, and she was taught by an expert, so she did such absurd things this time. I'm afraid that ordinary people can't bear to be their teachers, right?"

The eldest grandson said with a smile: "Children's temperament is always uncertain. She, her master and two senior brothers have lived in the mountains for a long time. These outsiders are somewhat informal and behave strangely. This child has been carefully taught by her master since she was a child." , more or less contaminated with some superior habits, presumably it is caused by unwillingness to be restrained. She is still young, as long as she is patiently taught, she will definitely become a model for a noble lady."

Li Shimin also burst out laughing when he heard the words, "Yizhen's temper is as fierce as fire, and Mrs. Pei is not a good-natured land, so Cheng's mansion will be very lively now."

What a pair of dogs and men!

If Yang Xiaoran heard this, he would definitely send this comment!
You are the great His Majesty Li Er, an emperor through the ages, is it really good to see your courtiers making fools of themselves like this?

Of course, if she knew, Li Shimin would send someone to search the mountain when she walked forward, maybe she wouldn't even be able to sleep, right?

In fact, this is not difficult to understand, not to mention how suspicious Li Shimin and other black-bellied monarchs are, but to say that Cheng Yaojin, as his capable general and right-hand man, how can he not care about such things in his family? ?Suddenly a girl appeared, and the owner was far away at the border. As the boss, he must take care of the excellent employees under him, right?Of course, the origin must be clarified, so as not to cause jokes in the future.

It's just that this search turned up a lot of surprises, otherwise, how could Master Li Er be willing to buy a cart of books as a reward for just one poem?

Of course, the great Li Xiaoer's winking eyes were thrown away, and Miss Yang, oh no, it's Miss Cheng who doesn't appreciate it at all, and has a look of disgust that you are so busy.

If he finds out about this, he will definitely want to beat this ignorant girl to death!
Nimei's!Such a precious thing as a book is still treasured in the palace, how dare you despise it?Even if I, Li Shimin, reward you with a pile of shit, I have to be grateful!

Not to mention how this black-bellied couple watched the courtiers joke in the Taiji Palace in the middle of the night, and Yang Xiaoran was yelled at by Mrs. Pei, and after returning to Fuyaju, tears fell down.

Although the soul is mature, but the body is not yet mature. Feeling that the cruel future is coming, I can't help feeling sad and crying!

If you are in a bad mood, you will have a big temper. The maid assigned by the cheap mother is not familiar with her, so she is not easy to bully, so she can only find a familiar senior brother to comfort her heart.Called the two idiots, and drove away all the servants. Looking at the obviously rounded faces of the two idiots, a certain girl asked with a smile: "How are the two senior brothers living comfortably these days?"

"Oh, Meidi is very..."

The two idiots sighed at the same time, just about to continue to sigh at the delicious food and comfortable life of the Duke's Mansion, but saw the gloomy face of the junior sister suddenly enlarged in front of them.

"Is it really beautiful?"

The snot was trembling, Han Niu lowered his head, avoiding the cold gaze of his junior sister, he felt that the hot day had become cooler in an instant, under such gaze, he felt that his body seemed to be pierced by ice ribs A few holes were opened, and it was chilly, and the whole body couldn't help shaking.

Yang Xiaoran pinched his fingers, "Batt, click", the crisp sound of his knuckles made his nose tremble even more.He came to the Duke's mansion for several days, and he got carried away with the delicious food and wine every day, and unconsciously forgot about the fact that he sold his junior sister in Xiaoqingshan that day.

At this moment, I was blown by the blustery air automatically emitted by my junior sister. When I remembered it, my memory came back a little bit. At that time, my junior sister had said that I will settle accounts with myself later!
Thinking of this, the snot only felt that the legs and feet were weak, the junior sister was still the same junior sister, the pattern of symptoms before the anger had not changed, but why did the junior sister look more terrifying now?

"Tell me..."

Yang Xiaoran sat cross-legged on the brocade pier, complaining about this damn pier again in her heart, tables and chairs are not yet popular, and low tables and grounds are used to sit on her knees, these days are hard for her, and only these two idiots She can only use this "sitting" when she is in front of people. If she sits like this in front of people, she will definitely be beaten to death.

I took a cucumber (cucumber) from the short table and bit it into my mouth, squinting at the two idiots, "Have you gotten very close to the brothers these days? Look at your red faces. Yes, I think I get along well with my brothers."

"Junior Sister's older brothers are very nice and treated me very generously."

Hanniu answered Yang Xiaoran's question very honestly, "Yesterday he took us to Pingkangfang, there are many strange girls there, but they are all really beautiful..."

"Pingkangfang?"

Yang Xiaoran felt that it was not a good place, because Han Niu said that there are many strange girls there, that's the point.

Squinting his eyes, he thought to himself, he wouldn't have gone to a brothel, would he?

I just heard Han Niu continue to say: "But beauty is beautiful, but those girls are really shameless. They beat me and my elder brother when they came up, and even tried to put their hands in my arms to steal my money. They were pushed by me and elder brother." It's open, and the second young master is a little unhappy about it."
