Chapter 152 An opportunity for Jieli(1/2)
Although having such a brother-in-law is annoying, it can save a lot of trouble on some things.
"There is an experiment I want to discuss with your father." Zhang Yang looked serious.
"What experiment? Are we going to make delicious food again?" Li Tai took another sip of milk tea.
"It has nothing to do with eating. I'm here for your sister's dream. This dream has been bothering her for a long time."
"Okay, for the sake of the imperial sister." Li Tai nodded, "You can enter the palace with me and no one will stop you."
The arrogance of this little fat guy makes people really want to kick him.
With Li Tai's help, the journey was much smoother, and there were no excessive questioning from the guards.
All the way to Hanyuan Hall, Li Shimin was sitting inside, reviewing memorials.
Under the leadership of the eunuch, he walked into the Hanyuan Hall.
Presumably Taiji Hall and Hanyuan Hall are very small. Li Shimin is writing, and he looks quite attentive when writing.
After a while, Li Shimin put down his pen.
Li Tai bowed and said, "My father's writing skills have improved a bit."
Li Shimin wiped his hands, "That's a lot worse than Yu Shinan and the others."
"Father, Mr. Zhang said that he has something to discuss with his father."
This was the first time that my son-in-law came to see me on his own initiative.
Li Shimin sat down and drank tea, "Your tea is very good."
Zhang Yang bowed slightly and said, "It will also be sold in the fiefdom in the future."
Li Shimin put down the tea bowl, "I heard that you two bought all the tea in Chang'an City."
Li Tai lowered his head and remained silent.
This was a bit blaming. Zhang Yang cleared his throat and said, "I didn't expect that there are only so many tea leaves. There will be more in a few days, eh."
"Tell me, why did you come to see me?" Li Shimin stared at Zhang Yang, observing his expression.
"I have an experiment. If this experiment can be successful, maybe everyone can go to heaven in the future." After Zhang Yang said it, he thought for a while and wondered if it would be appropriate to describe it this way.
"What experiment?"
"An experiment that sends people to heaven."
"Do you know what you are talking about?" Li Shimin stared wide-eyed.
"Actually, the principle is not very difficult. It's just that I've been doing it for a long time, and now I've finally made some progress. However, this experiment is somewhat risky."
Li Shimin put his hand on the table.
Li Tai was silent, thinking about what Zhang Yang's words meant.
Two eunuchs stood aside.
Waves of cold wind blew into Hanyuan Hall, making the hall feel much colder.
"What kind of risk?"
"It's easy for people to fall to death."
Li Shimin was silent again.
Zhang Yang bowed and said: "So I want to ask Jieli Khan to do this."
"Why?"
"When it comes to Jieli Khan, everyone probably doesn't care about his life or death."
"He is the uncle of Tuli Khan."
"Tuli Khan broke up with Jieli Khan many years ago, and the two had conflicts."
"..."
"It is written on the eucalyptus scroll of the Ministry of Rites." Zhang Yang added
After another moment of silence, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Jieli cannot die in my hands."
"For the reputation of Your Majesty as a benevolent king?"
"Your tone of voice is very rude."
"I, country people don't know the rules very well."
Li Shimin took a deep breath and asked, "Can people really go to heaven?"
Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "Theoretically, it is possible, but the current technical level is not enough. A height of several hundred meters is already very good. If this is of value to His Majesty, it is very cost-effective to exchange Jieli's life for the results."
of."
There was silence for a while.
Zhang Yang continued: "This is to give Jieli a reputation for freedom. If Jieli can be safe and sound, then let him be free. If he dies, it will be his own life."
Li Shimin nodded and looked at it, "Jieli must volunteer."
Zhang Yang bowed slightly and said, "In the face of freedom, he will volunteer."
Li Shimin took out a jade plaque and said, "Jieli's life is yours, and I also want to see the value of this experiment."
"I understand."
Zhang Yang took the jade token from the eunuch.
Li Shimin picked up the pen again, "Is there anything else?"
Zhang Yang bowed slightly and said, "I take my leave."
Li Tai also followed Zhang Yang out of Hanyuan Hall.
Li Tai, who was following him, was also puzzled. Zhang Yang looked very calm when he saw his father.
In Li Shimin's eyes, Jieli's life and death must be voluntary.
This is his benevolent heart.
Because of the Xuanwu Sect incident, Li Shimin is now very concerned about his reputation.
Li Shimin wants to be a kind king in front of the people of the world.
Is Li Shimin actually kind? He kills without blinking an eye.
Li Jiancheng and his entire family were killed by him.
Zhang Yang walked out of the palace with a jade tablet in his hand, and two eunuchs led the way down to a house in Chang'an City.
Li Junxian, who was guarding the door of the house, stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"
The eunuch told Li Junxian what happened.
Zhang Yang handed over a sign, and after Li Junxian confirmed the jade sign, he let people in.
The security here is very tight.
When I walked into this house, I saw a middle-aged man holding a sheep. His hair was black and white, and he looked messy.
He has been imprisoned here since he was captured.
This guy is going crazy holding the sheep.
Li Tai whispered to Zhang Yang: "Is this guy crazy?"
Jie Li saw the person coming and backed away a little while holding the sheep.
Li Junxian stood aside holding a horizontal knife.
"Give you a chance to be free." Zhang Yang looked at the Khan who once dominated the Turks.
Jie Li said nothing, his eyes were wary.
"I'm going to do an experiment. If you can survive successfully, you can go back to the grassland. You can go anywhere. But I tell you that this experiment is also risky. If something happens, you will either become disabled or die."
Jieli shouted a few words in Turkic dialect, but he had no idea what he was talking about.
Zhang Yang knelt down, looked at him and whispered: "Do you want to be under house arrest here for the rest of your life, or do you want to seize this opportunity to escape? His Majesty has agreed."
Jieli also said a few words in Turkic dialect.
Zhang Yang looked at Li Junxian, "Can't he speak Guanzhong dialect?"
Li Junxian said with a straight face, "He can speak Guanzhong dialect and understand it."
Zhang Yang stood up slowly, "I can tell you that Tuli will come to Chang'an soon. The court is also trying to comfort Tuli Khan. If Tuli wants to take you back to the grassland, your life or death will be uncertain, not to mention Duer.
I'm going to kill you."
Seeing the change in Jie Li's expression, Zhang Yang didn't stop talking.
"I can protect you for a while in Chang'an City. People in the Central Plains are very filial. You are the uncle of Tuli Khan. It is only natural that Tuli Khan should take you to fulfill your filial piety. You die on the grassland or in Tuli Khan
It has nothing to do with us if he dies in the hands of other Turks."
