Chapter 177

The days seem to have returned to the calmness of the past. Whoever should do what they do can do it by themselves. Wang Ke still wanders around all day long, staying at home with his wife from time to time, and letting him keep secretly watching whether Wang Ke will make trouble with the prince. Comrade Li Er could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

On this day, Wang Ke was still lying on the bed and refused to get up, but someone came to report that Comrade Li Er had sent someone to call him into the palace.

Wang Ke cursed in his heart, this Comrade Li Er is too good at checking the time, what time is this? According to the timekeeping method of Tang Dynasty, it is almost noon, and according to the modern time, that is to say, It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning, and seeing that Wang Ke was about to get up for lunch, he came to ask him to enter the palace at this time. It seemed that he didn't want him to eat, and he would have to be hungry for a whole day.

Wang Ke dressed slowly, wiped his face briefly, followed the visitors from the palace to Comrade Li Er's imperial study room, saluted Comrade Li Er, straightened up, and yawned a lot .

Wang Ke hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands. He knew from the TV that such an action was considered disrespectful in front of Comrade Li Er. If Comrade Li Er wanted to punish him, he would be wronged.

Comrade Li Er glanced at Wang Ke, didn't care about it, but said lightly: "I haven't woken up yet! What did you do last night?"

Wang Ke didn't expect that Comrade Li Er would ask herself such a question, and before she had time to think about it, she blurted out: "I didn't do anything. Your Majesty, you know that this princess is pregnant, and I have to get up in the middle of the night to cook her something to eat. "

"Oh?"

Comrade Li Er became a little interested now, and moved his eyes from the booklet on the imperial case to Wang Ke and asked, "You still get up at night to cook food for Nanping? Isn't there a servant? Why do you want to do it yourself? "

Comrade Li Er knew that Wang Ke was very kind to his two daughters, but he never thought that he would be so kind to his two daughters. hand.

Wang Ke had already spoken his words. Although he also knew that in this era, men would not cook in the kitchen, but he came from a later life and never cared too much about this concept. He also cared about his wife. Feel nothing.

Now that Comrade Li Er asked, Wang Ke felt that it would be okay to talk to Comrade Li Er about this issue. Anyway, Comrade Li Er is also the father of Nanping. happy.

Wang Ke replied: "Your Majesty, people who are pregnant have to eat less and more meals. They can't eat too much at one time, or they will feel uncomfortable. At night, eating soft things is good for your health, but you can't eat too much." If it’s too much, it’s enough to be full. I’m going to do it myself and I need to be more familiar with the fire. Besides, it’s already midnight, so why bother to wake up others? They’ve worked hard all day, so let them rest more Just a little while, anyway, it won't bother you."

Comrade Li Er now has a new understanding of Wang Ke. He didn't expect Wang Ke to take such care of his servants.However, remembering the appearance of Wang Ke in the last disaster in the south of the Yangtze River, Comrade Li Er also believed that Wang Ke was such a person. He was so bad that he was boundless, but he was still a kind person in essence. I didn't see it.

At this time, Comrade Li Er began to admire his two daughters again. Their eyesight is much stronger than his own, and they fell in love with this ordinary-looking man at a glance. Now it proves that their choice is correct. A man who treats himself well is rare.

Wang Ke saw Comrade Li Er looking at him and kept smiling, but he didn't know what was wrong with him.After all, when I got up today, I just washed up briefly, maybe something was not cleaned, and Comrade Li Er saw it at this time, and was laughing at himself.

Wang Ke wiped his face with his hands, and then looked at the military uniform he was wearing. He didn't find anything wrong, so he asked hesitantly: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with my minister? You keep looking at me like this. The minister is a little panicked!"

"Uh." Comrade Li Er was shocked by Wang Ke's voice, and then he woke up from his meditation, but he didn't hear what Wang Ke said just now, so he asked, "Boy, what did you say just now?" , I didn’t hear clearly, please say it again.”

Wang Ke pursed his lips, daring to say what he said, but Comrade Li Er didn't pay attention to it. If he knew it earlier, he wouldn't have to express his feelings. There was no way, so Wang Ke had to repeat it again.

Comrade Li Er laughed loudly when he heard this, and said while waving his hands: "No, no. I just thought of something to laugh at myself, and it has nothing to do with you kid."

Comrade Li Er would definitely not tell Wang Ke what he thought just now. He was afraid that if he said it, Wang Ke's tail would not be up to the sky.
After Comrade Li Er finished laughing, Wang Ke hurried to ask. If this time is delayed, Comrade Li Er is not hungry, but he will be hungry. He hasn't even eaten breakfast. Can't bear it

As soon as Wang Ke saw that Comrade Li Er's laughter showed signs of stopping, he immediately asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know what is the matter of calling the young minister into the palace today, please give me instructions!"

Only then did Comrade Li Er realize that he had asked Wang Ke to enter the palace for something, so he quickly stopped laughing, found a memorial on the royal case, and handed it to Wang Ke, "Let's have a look, boy, this was handed in yesterday."

When Wang Ke heard what it was handed to Comrade Li Er yesterday, she didn't know what it was, and thought to herself: "I can't impeach me again! I haven't done anything during this time."

As soon as he took it and opened it, Wang Ke frowned.

He remembered that he couldn't understand. Wang Ke was really not used to the tone of classical Chinese. With his level of education, he was basically illiterate in this era. I can write a few more.

Of course, he knew that those poems were not his own, so he could read them out for others, but he still knew that they were not his own.

But one sentence that Wang Ke remembers very firmly is: Stealing books cannot be considered stealing... Stealing books-...Schools, can it be considered stealing?I am still a scholar here, how can I steal books!But it seems that this plagiarism is not very pleasant, so how should I say it, yes, borrow it!borrow it.

When Wang Ke was discussing this issue alone, the voice of Comrade Li Er came to his ears: "Boy, haven't you finished reading it for so long?"

Wang Ke doesn't pretend now, he knows it's useless to pretend, this is for you to express your opinion, I don't understand what it means, and I can't pretend even if I want to.

Wang Ke said clearly: "Your Majesty, I have finished reading, but I don't understand what it means."

Comrade Li Er smiled wryly and said, "You really are, I don't understand what's going on with you. Forget it, let me tell you. I'm anxious seeing you like that."

Wang Ke didn't feel any embarrassment, and handed the brochure to Comrade Li Er. Comrade Li Er read the brochure and began to explain it to Wang Ke.

From Comrade Li Er's explanation, Wang Ke knew that this booklet was sent back by several ministers who had been away for a year and arranged to find the construction of the port. The booklet described the places they designated by Wang Ke. What they saw also raised some of their views.

After listening to Comrade Li Er's interpretation, Wang Ke looked up at the sky and didn't speak. He had to think about it carefully. He felt that there was a big discrepancy between what was said in this booklet and what he knew.

In his impression, the places he pointed out are all good places to build ports.Wang Ke was puzzled by this question. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. Wang Ke simply gave up and said to Comrade Li Er directly: "Your Majesty, do you have a map of these places? I want to see it."

Comrade Li Er was not prepared for Wang Ke's request, so he had to ask Wang Ke to wait, and called Eunuch Yang, and asked him to go to Wang Si and the others to find a map.

After Eunuch Yang left in a hurry, Comrade Li Er asked puzzledly: "Boy, what do you want the map for? Didn't they explain it clearly enough in this brochure?"

Wang Ke shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you don't feel anything just by hearing about it. If you can look at it against the map, you will have a much better understanding than just listening to it. As the saying goes: hearing is believing, seeing is believing! Now, I am right I don't know much about the distribution of the Tang Dynasty, and I don't know the current situation in various places. With a map for comparison, I think it may be possible to analyze the opinions of several adults."

Comrade Li Er nodded and did not ask any more questions.

After a while, Eunuch Yang came back with several pieces of white silk in his hand. Comrade Li Er frowned and said, "I asked you to get the map, but why didn't you bring it. What is it in your hand?"

Eunuch Yang bowed to Comrade Li Er and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Wang and the others are looking for a map. What the villain is holding in his hand is the detailed topographic map of several places drawn up by Lord Zhang and the others together with Zhezi."

As soon as Wang Ke heard this, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, this is good. Mr. Zhang and the others are too serious about their work. This is more useful than any map!"

As Wang Ke said, he snatched the white silk from Eunuch Yang's hand, and didn't care about so much, so he stepped in front of Comrade Li Er's imperial case, opened a few white silks, and saw the detailed paintings on them. Out of the mountains, the direction of the river, the distribution of towns, coastal terrain.What excites Wang Ke the most is that the depth of the water along the coast is marked on the map. Although the ancient marking method is used, Wang Ke will not be afraid. Convert it into what you can understand.

Wang Ke slammed on Comrade Li Er's case and said loudly: "Okay, such a detailed map will help us a lot in deciding where to set up a port!"

Seeing Wang Ke applauding repeatedly, Comrade Li Er knew that this must be very useful, and asked Wang Si who had just entered the door: "Why didn't these maps be sent to me along with the booklet?"

Wang Si was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Comrade Li Er's reaction to be so great, and he said quickly: "The emperor calms down, I just want to wait for the emperor to read the notebook and need to see the map before sending it up, so as not to get caught in it and damage it. It’s not good if it’s lost or lost.”

Comrade Li Er's face eased after this.In fact, Wang Si and the others didn't think so much at all. They just thought that it would be enough to show the book to Comrade Li Er, and the map was useless.

Unexpectedly, my son wanted to look at the map, and couldn't find the complete map of the Tang Dynasty for a while, so he wanted to use these to resist first, and send it in as soon as he found the full map.As a result, when he came in, he was reprimanded by Comrade Li Er. Fortunately, Wang Si reacted quickly, so he covered it up like this.

Wang Ke is now immersed in the map, and his eyes keep moving from one map to another, repeatedly comparing the evaluations of several officials on several places that Comrade Li Er explained to him just now.

What Wang Ke has to do now is to select two or three locations based on the evaluation of these officials and the map in his hand, and ask Comrade Li Er to order the construction of a military port to establish the naval force of the Tang Empire.
