The Lone Star of the Tang Dynasty

In the final analysis, Li Changge's trip to Chang'an and the revelation of his identity are only a matter of time.

But the important thing at the moment is that the next day, Li Shimin will take his ministers out of the palace to meet with the contemporary sages, and for this reason, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng and others have returned to the mansion to prepare for their outfits.

...... late at night

Li Shimin hugged the eldest grandson queen in his arms, and muttered with deep eyes: "Potatoes...... Potatoes ......

".

When Empress Changsun heard this, she couldn't help but smile and said coquettishly: "You are about to become a potato idiot." When you see the children, will you be so fascinated?".

Li Shimin shook his head self-deprecatingly, his eyes were full of pride and gratification: "Our children are all fighting for energy, especially Ge'er has solved the eternal problem of feeding the people, which is really a great achievement." I wonder if Ge'er can one day ascend the throne as emperor, how should the historians record his deeds? Perhaps, compared to Yao Shunyu Tang, he is also even better. "

Empress Changsun's expression tightened when she heard this, and she sighed softly: "Cheng Qian has been established as the crown prince, so we still don't want to mention this matter." "

Li Shimin smiled slightly, comforted her, and said, "How could I not know?" But you might as well tell me what you think about what I just said

Empress Changsun replied solemnly: "If you talk about the evaluation of historians, my son will definitely be praised as the three emperors and five emperors, even above Yao Shun." After all, throughout the ages, there have been very few emperors who can stop the people of the world from starvation, but Ge'er has done it!"

Li Shimin laughed heartily when he heard this, and his heart was extremely comfortable: "Those who know me, Guanyin and maids! What you said is exactly what I want." He continued to elaborate: "At first, I was worried that the sudden emergence of a talented prince might cause a dispute over the throne and attract a lot of criticism. But now it seems that the situation may not be as tricky as I thought. "

"Oh?" asked Empress Eldest Sun suspiciously.

"Haha, Wei Zheng and several of their ministers once cried and asked to see Ge'er, which shows that his talent has been recognized by the ministers. If Ge'er is really changed to the crown prince, I am afraid that those old ministers will support it. Li Shimin said confidently.

Empress Eldest Sun pondered for a moment, and indeed remembered the eager expectations of the ministers in the Ganlu Hall for that mysterious prince before. As a mother, she is full of pride, but she can't help but worry about the possible conflicts between Chengqian and Ge'er.

Subsequently, she thought that Cheng Qian and Ge'er were both reasonable people and should be able to properly handle the brotherly relationship. Especially when mentioning Ge'er, Empress Changsun suddenly mentioned an interesting story: "Ge'er told me before that the superb iron knife you longed for was just scrap metal in his eyes. "

"Waste?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, not knowing why.

Empress Changsun then recalled the details of her conversation with Li Changge, who had told her that as long as the conditions were ripe and a more powerful furnace was built, she would be able to refine steel of far better quality than hunting knives, and truly achieve the effect of sharpening iron like clay. Not only that, but he also mentioned that by adding rare materials, steel with unique advantages in terms of hardness, fire resistance, rust resistance and flexibility can be refined, each with its own uses, and some even surpass gold.

Li Shimin was speechless in astonishment when he heard these astonishing assumptions. Originally, I thought that Li Changge had only made achievements in the field of engineering, but I never thought that his insight in metallurgical technology would be so unique and advanced. This shocked and delighted Li Er's heart, and he couldn't believe that his son could have such foresight.

"This ...... These are all things that Ge'er told you personally?" Li Shimin was shocked and confirmed.

"Isn't it!" replied Empress Eldest Sun with a smile, "Although he has not returned for many years and his identity has not yet been revealed, the conversation between our mother and son reveals his deep understanding and extraordinary wisdom of craftsmanship. Although I was also worried that he was too focused on engineering and neglected the study of a subset of classics and history, it seems that Du Ruhui's high evaluation of his insight and thought is not a lie. "

Li Shimin was full of emotion, and the pride and expectation in his heart were intertwined.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and he was shocked by his son's insight and talent that transcended the times: "It's incredible! This steel can have such rich variations and applications!" "On the battlefield, if you can have weapons and equipment that can withstand high temperatures, wouldn't you be able to ignore the enemy's fire attack tactics? Needless to say, the value of incomparably hard weapons is immeasurable." In particular, the fact that it never rusts is a game-changer, and if this immortal iron is put on the market, for example, when it is sold to those great families for the construction of mausoleums, the revenue of the treasury will definitely increase significantly. Once the country is strong, the Turks are bowed down, and the people can enjoy the blessing of tax reduction, at that time, the prosperous scene written by the historian will surely make the emperor's name go down through the ages.

At dawn the next day, the atmosphere in the court was tense. The ministers knew that thousands of displaced people were about to arrive in Chang'an, and they were all trembling in the face of the crisis of famine and the influx of displaced people to the capital. The Emperor of Mediocrity may regard the exiles as rioters and quickly suppress them, but Li Er has always loved the people like a son, and not only sent the Xuanjia Army to escort the exiles, but also strictly forbade anyone to use violence against them. Obviously, someone must be responsible for this incident, and for a while, the people in the court were panicked, or frightened, or slandered Li Er's hypocrisy, or frowned, and lamented again and again.

But soon, His Majesty Li Er appeared in the hall in a dragon robe with a spring breeze on his face, and his words and deeds made everyone dumbfounded. He laughed loudly: "Everyone, everyone must have known the news that the victims of the disaster will arrive in Chang'an yesterday. Today is a day of festivities, and after all of you worked hard last night, I have decided to take a day off today, so that everyone can have a good rest!hahahaha!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire court was instantly silent, and the officials looked at each other, their faces full of doubts and incomprehension. Whether it is a minister loyal to Li Er, or a force from a family, or an official who messes around on weekdays, or even an honest person who sincerely asks for the people's life, they are all confused by this abnormal behavior at this moment, as if they have seen the reincarnation of Emperor Jin Hui. If it weren't for Li Er's voice still being loud and powerful, everyone would almost think that they had heard the wrong thing.

In this group of bewildered ministers, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng glanced at each other, and an imperceptible smile flashed in their eyes, as if they had already understood Li Er's move.

After a while, Li Er boarded the carriage with a smile on his face, accompanied by the gentle and virtuous Empress Changsun, and behind him was another carriage, carrying Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng.

At this time, Empress Changsun was enjoying the scenery along the way through the bead curtain, and at the same time, Li Changge was sweating and exercising at home, and the two maids beside him stood with towels in their hands, looking at him with stars in their eyes.

Although he is no longer a hunter, Li Changge knows that it is very important to maintain a good physique, after all, he has not yet married a wife, how can he let his figure be out of shape?
