Li Shimin asked with a little excitement as he walked to the gate.

“After many days of preparation, it will be the moment to test the results in a while, is the ninth brother nervous?”

“Ahem, after opening the gate, we go back to the Gewu Courtyard, and only by seeing the results with my own eyes can I really relax.”

Li Yuanfang frankly admitted that he was nervous.

Suddenly, Li Tai interjected.

“This tap water is the brainchild of Uncle Jiuhuang, how can the imperial uncle not be nervous, the father’s problem will only make the imperial uncle more nervous.”

“It’s not big or small, it’s actually moved the elders.” Li Shimin scolded with a smile when he heard this.

“Oh, I was wrong.” Li Tai heard that Li Shimin was not angry, so he admitted his mistake and recognized it very happily.

When Li Yuanfang saw this scene, he just smiled and did not speak.

Everyone gathered in front of the floodgate of the waterworks, and Li Shimin personally pulled down the mechanism on the wall.

Whoops… Water from the reservoir poured into the secondary pipes, the air was overstocked, and bubbles appeared on the surface of the water.

Li Yuanfang drank excitedly.

“It seems that it should be a success, let’s go to the Gewu Courtyard to see the situation.”

“Go~!”

With Li Shimin’s order, everyone immediately began to shift their positions.

……

There are a sea of people outside the grid.

Li Shimin and his party passed through the dense flow of people and stood in front of the outdoor sink.

“Gao Ming, Qingque, Qi’er, you go and open the valve.”

“Children obey the order!”

The matter of the limelight was immediately divided among the first three princes, and the others had no opinion.

Only Li Chenggan’s opinion in his heart was big, and he felt that he was in the limelight alone, and it was more in line with his heart not to bring two younger brothers.

Immediately afterwards, the three princes unscrewed the valve almost at the same time.

The pipe began to make a coughing sound, causing the onlookers to stare at the valve in amazement.

“Boom… Boom…”

The sound of water comes from far to near, slowly the water flows bigger and bigger, and finally flows out.

“Hahaha, it worked.”

“Water, that’s really water!”

“Oh my God, it’s a miracle.”

“……”

The first to scream were the onlookers, who cheered the first time they saw water gushing out of the pipe.

Why so excited?

With such troublesome terrain in the city being able to divert water in, and the outside of the city is empty, and many villages are closer to the water source, the project of diverting water must be simpler than in the city.

This means irrigating the farmland, and people no longer have to fetch water from the river, but can get water nearby to irrigate the fields.

Cheng bit Jin and drank heavily.

“The people are right, this is a miracle, it is unbelievable that water flows out when you open a small valve with your hand.”

“Miracles are created by everyone’s hands, not by this king alone.”

After the successful test, Li Yuanfang appeared much calmer.

Who said that looking at the tap water showed joy, but he had already remembered Xiao Yao’s teaching.

If you don’t have to run for your own merit, then the soup should be divided among everyone.

Niu Jinda lowered his head to the water stream and tasted it.

“Water can be drunk directly without peculiar smell, and His Royal Highness King Zhou has created a miracle.”

Li Yuanfang shook his head, and while breathing a sigh of relief, he finally couldn’t help but say.

“It’s not good to drink raw water directly, but everything that you eat is best when cooked.”

“Half-cooked, unclean things, easy to eat diarrhea, but also easy to breed other diseases.”

“……”

Li Shimin slapped Li Yuanfang’s back.

“Ahem, what did the old imperial doctor tell you?”

“Well, the disease has to be prevented from the mouth, as for the cleanliness problem… I’ll think of a way again. ”

Li Yuanfang frowned and thought hard, cleaning is tantamount to washing his hands frequently, looking down at his hands, and thinking of the cook’s oil-stained hands at home, he suddenly felt a little pain in his stomach.

No, once he notices the hygiene problem, he can’t do it out of sight, soap needs to be done seriously, if you don’t do it, you can’t do it.

Li Shimin laughed and asked Niu Jinda not to care.

“His Royal Highness King Zhou’s concern is true, the old minister is not so stingy.” Niu Jinda rubbed his hands and asked, “This tap water is very convenient for everyone to use, I don’t know when other workshops can be built.” ”

“The price of all kinds of pipeline facilities in one fang is as high as 1,500 guan, and Xu also wants to expand, but it’s a pity that the treasury is silver…”

Li Shimin said helplessly that he was in trouble.

All the courtiers nodded when they heard this, they knew that the treasury was not rich, but they paid for it themselves to build it … Many people are a little reluctant.

Just when the vast majority of ministers were thinking about whether it was worth it, the six Shangshu directly surrounded Li Yuanfang.

Xiao Yu and Li Yuanfang were the most familiar, he clearly knew that the little disciple had many ghost ideas, but most of them were stuffy in their hearts and did not say them, and immediately said with a smile.

“The advantages of laying tap water in the whole city outweigh the disadvantages, and the household department can’t grit its teeth and take it out to build it, but how to fill this hole, Yuan can have an idea?”

Li Yuanfang looked at the teacher stunned for a few seconds, and threw out the water fee theory with black lines all over his head.

“Huh? Money makes money, you should be a disciple of the old man, very suitable for development in the Hubu. ”

“The function of tap water is obvious to all, and once the whole city is laid, it will reduce the situation where distant water cannot save near fires, which is a great merit.” Penal Shangshu and Bingbu Shangshu said happily.

Li Yuanfang nodded stunnedly and asked the other three blankly.

“What is the matter with the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Engineering?”

“Water wheels, the construction of water canals, our Ministry of Works needs to work closely with His Highness in terms of water conservancy.” Ministry of Works Shangshu smiled gracefully like a Maitreya Buddha, and subconsciously patted his stomach.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials and Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites said that the six ministries were in the same spirit, and they were here to help others stand guard.

Li Yuanfang felt that he had become fragrant and tao, and his psychology jumped.

Trouble, big trouble is coming.

“Uh… My stomach hurts, first go to the palace, and you will find the imperial brother for major matters in the imperial court. ”

After speaking, Li Yuanfang greased the soles of his feet and turned to run.

Who knew that he was grabbed by Li Xiaogong.

“Cousin, let me go.”

“No, it’s me who released your bad luck.”

Li Xiaogong pointed in a direction meaningfully, and Li Yuanfang turned his head and saw Li Shimin who came calmly.

“Where does the ninth brother want to go?”

“Uh… Go home and draw a picture, no, field irrigation and residential water use, not the same water supply system, besides, the water supply system for residential water, didn’t the brother hand it over earlier? ”

Li Yuanfang Shi Shiran laughed dryly.

Li Shimin glared angrily and scolded with a smile.

“The person who presided over this water conservancy construction is you, you know all the details better than anyone, do you mean to take up the burden at this time?”

“Of course it’s good, in short, don’t look for me for troublesome things, there are so many people in your six departments…” Li Yuanfang couldn’t help but think in pieces.

When everyone heard this, they all showed a crying and laughing expression.

Li Shimin smiled helplessly and interrupted Li Yuanfang’s words categorically.

“Hehe, before the matter is explained clearly, you can’t run away, and you will go back to the palace to discuss.”

“Oh!”

Li Yuanfang lowered his head in a daze and answered listlessly.
