Chapter 286 The eldest grandson Wuji came forward to stop the instructions
The group of people waited in the palace for a long time.
A middle-aged man rushed to the palace in a hurry.
He is the architect Yan Lide.
At this time, he was very confused, what was happening? He was rarely allowed into the palace in normal times, but what happened today? Why was he allowed into the palace in such a hurry?
When he arrived, he saw that in addition to Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, there were also Changsun Wuji and Sun Simiao.
He did not dare to neglect, and first bowed to Li Shimin and his wife.
Then he followed Sun Simiao and said: "Yan Lide has met Zhenren Sun! I have admired his name for a long time!"
"Don't dare!"
After the two of them bowed to each other.
Yan Lide asked directly: "Your Majesty does not know why you have invited me here."
He wondered, at this time, he was supervising the construction of the building, why was he allowed to come over?
"Let Master Sun speak about this matter!"
Li Er expressed.
Yan Lide wondered why this matter had anything to do with Sun Simiao?
But he still asked: "Master Sun, this..."
Sun Simiao then said: "It's like this. Shengtang Group wants to build a house, so I ask you to come as a reference."
"What's the reference for building a house? It's just a matter for the craftsmen."
Changsun Wuji couldn't listen anymore.
He said directly: "It's like this. The Shengtang Group said that it wants to build a thirty-story house. Now I'm here to ask your Majesty if it can be built. Your Majesty is not sure, so I would like to ask you for your reference."
"A thirty-story house? That's not easy! I wonder who Shengtang Group hired to build it?"
"Mr. Zili!"
Sun Simiao only said:
Yan Lide knew who it was.
"But the Sixth Prince!?"
"It used to be, but not anymore!"
Li Shimin responded on his behalf.
"Oh, I see. Then does he have a house that made him successful, or something else?"
Yan Lide did not dare to neglect, and he had to recognize everything clearly.
Otherwise, if the time comes and a misjudgment is made, that will not work.
At this time, Empress Changsun said: "Li Min created the gardens in the Shengtang Group and transplanted them into Yuhuawan."
When Yan Lide heard this, he seemed to be reminiscing.
Then it dawned on me.
"I see. If it's just gardening skills, building a house is not easy. Twenty stories is the limit. How can we have a thirty-story house?"
That means he obviously doesn't believe it.
"Master Sun, Yan Lide said no, I think you should go back and talk to him about it!"
"Your Majesty, I think Mr. Zili can make it!"
Sun Simiao believed in Li Min very much. This kind of trust could make him unable to listen to Yan Lide's words.
"Master Sun, I have never seen a thirty-story house like this. With my ability, I can only build a twenty-story tower. Any higher than that and it may collapse."
Yan Lide didn't believe it and tried to persuade Sun Simiao.
Unexpectedly, Sun Simiao said: "Before, I didn't believe that Mr. Zili could practice medicine, but he did do some shocking things and saved thousands of people, so I believe in him."
"Master Sun, this code is the same code. He can practice medicine, which is also within your category, but architecture is not just playing in the mud!"
Changsun Wuji said at this time.
"Yes, Master Sun, if this house is built well, it is a miracle; if it cannot be built, it is a ruin!"
The two of them talked to each other.
But Sun Simiao did not give in.
"Yan Lide, if you don't evaluate it, how do you know that Mr. Zili can't do it? You arbitrarily think that he is not good before you see his talent. This kind of behavior is disappointing!"
Sun Simiao was highly respected, and his words carried great weight.
Therefore, Yan Lide felt very uncomfortable when he heard this.
Yes, it seems unreasonable for him to judge their future based only on his professional abilities.
At least, you should go and have a look, right?
Queen Changsun spoke at this time.
"Your Majesty, I think you can ask Yan Lide to go to Shengtang Group and let him evaluate whether this plan is feasible. If it is possible, then maybe there will be a landmark building in Chang'an City!"
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty! Thirty floors, how high does it have to be? Isn't it higher than the palace? Even if he has the ability, it is impossible to build it, right? That would make the royal family lose face!"
Queen Changsun was a little surprised.
What's wrong with this brother?
How to contradict yourself.
But what he said seemed reasonable.
This is also what Li Shimin is thinking.
"Your Majesty, I think Yan Lide is right. If he builds it well, it's a miracle, but if he can't build it, it's a ruin. Why not just let Li Min build it? It really doesn't work. You can make him retreat, but it's better than being beaten to death with a stick.
ah!"
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, you can't obey him every day! That would be very unfair to the other princes!"
Sun Simiao was very puzzled.
What's going on?
If it’s not just to build a house, why should we follow Li Min?
He couldn't understand.
I don't know about the conflict between Li Min and Changsun Wuji.
But still didn't give in.
"Your Majesty, I guarantee with my personality that Mr. Zili will be able to build it well!"
Now it was Li Shimin who was in a dilemma.
He has never been in this situation.
What to do?
Especially when the two sides hold different opinions.
So what should we do?
He glanced at Yan Lide.
Then I thought of a way.
"Yan Lide!"
"exist!"
"Go and evaluate it! If he can make it, he will come to the palace to find me. If he can't, just deny it!"
Yan Lide had no choice but to respond.
"Let's go, Yan Lide, let's go and evaluate it!"
Sun Simiao was a little impatient.
After all, he asked for it.
Yan Lide then bowed to Li Er and Queen Changsun, and then left with Sun Simiao towards the Shengtang Group.
At the moment, there are only three brothers and sisters, Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin.
Queen Changsun asked: "Brother, why did you stop me?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Queen, I am just making my own judgment, and I don't have any overly subjective opinions."
"Okay, that's it for now!"
Li Shimin was afraid that the two would quarrel, so he stepped forward.
At this time, Changsun Wuji said: "By the way, Your Majesty, I have something to do."
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"I have been thinking about the marriage between Chong'er and Princess Changle for a long time. How about we arrange a wedding in the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Regarding this matter, Li Shimin has not yet come out of the shadows.
Changsun Wuji mentioned this again, which made him feel unhappy.
He just asked Queen Changsun: "What do you think, Queen?"
"I think we can't have a big wedding at this time. After all, the smallpox epidemic has just passed and it is not suitable to hold a big wedding in Chang'an. However, the Mid-Autumn Festival can be held as scheduled so that all people can enjoy it!"
"Perhaps it can be a happy occasion?"
Changsun Wuji tried to persuade.
"Happy? It's not like that. Now that the people are homeless, if we hold a wedding again, I'm afraid it will make the people's complaints against the court deepen. Why are we doing this?"
"Just follow the queen's wishes."
Although Changsun Wuji was unhappy, he could only accept that no one dared not listen to Li Shimin's words.
If he doesn't do this, maybe Empress Changsun will help him.
But it seemed that Queen Changsun was still angry with him.
Looking at Li Shimin again, he doesn’t want to remarry his daughter, right?
In desperation, he had no choice but to curse Li Min bitterly.
