Li Tai has not conquered the artificial egg hatching technology for a long time, but Dou Jing is not idle, and the Locust Temple can be built in full swing at this moment.
With the strong support of the imperial court and Sinong Temple, half a month has been enough to build the Locust Temple.
The shape of this Locust Temple is also quite exquisite. At least the locust head of the Locust God is carved vividly, which is daunting.
It is naturally far from enough to build the Locust Temple. Next, Dou Jing also sent an invitation to invite a group of officials to visit the Locust God ceremony. Through this ceremony, we can drive away the locusts and ensure that Chang'an will not be able to do anything again
Locust plague.
Li Tai, who is still conquering the artificial egg hatching technology, naturally received this invitation.
"King Yue, King Yue, Dou Sinong is too bullying!" Zhao Yuankai walked towards Li Tai's room with an invitation and complained while walking.
When he arrived at the door, Zhao Yuankai stopped and asked Bai He to report, and he was waiting at the door.
Bai He shook his head and said, "The king is studying inside. He has given instructions. Unless the saint comes, no one can come to argue with him!"
"I'm in urgent need!" Zhao Yuankai said with a little urgency when he heard Bai He's words.
"Any urgent matter is more important than the King's study. Mr. Yan is teaching in it!" Bai He said seriously,
"And your voice is also lighter. If it affects the king's learning, Empress Changsun will not linger you!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yuankai opened his mouth and finally waited obediently.
Zhao Yuankai was a little restless and wanted to go in and take a look, but looking at Bai He who was guarding outside, he couldn't speak.
Zhao Yuankai knew that since Li Tai came here, Mr. Yan Qinli also came here to teach.
So although Li Tai is still focusing on artificial incubation technology, he actually has to learn it in his spare time.
Yan Qinli followed Li Tai, and basically the time Yan Qinli gave Li Tai during the day.
Finally half an hour later, Zhao Yuankai saw a handsome middle-aged scholar, holding a roll of Chunqiu out of the room, and both sides looked at each other.
Yan Qinli polites Zhao Yuankai, but he didn't say anything, and then left.
"Zhao Shaoqing, the king let you in!" Bai He said to Zhao Yuankai, who was slightly surprised.
Zhao Yuankai didn't care too much, so he hurried into the room and took out an invitation and handed it to Li Tai:
"King of Yue, Dou Jing sent us an invitation, saying that we would invite you and me to visit the Locust Temple to invite God's ceremony."
"Oh?" Li Tai took the invitation and looked at it. It did say that it was inviting himself and Zhao Yuankai to attend the ceremony of the Locust Temple.
Li Tai smiled calmly and said, "Will it be in three days? Then let's go and have a look!"
"Really come over?" Zhao Yuankai was a little uneasy when he heard Li Tai's words.
Li Tai glanced at Zhao Yuankai, but didn't understand what he was afraid of.
But then I thought about it that although Zhao Yuankai had the ability, he always embezzled and accepted bribes, and his foundation was really unclear.
Especially in past records, in order to satisfy Yang Guang's selfish desires, he did everything to plunder the people's wealth and flattery, otherwise he would not have been able to make a prosperous life in the Great Sui Dynasty.
If you have a thick face and a dark heart, it would be fine, but this guy is too thin and corruption, and he is very shameless. He will feel guilty if he is said a few words. Therefore, when facing an honest official like Dou Jing, he is always inconvenient and worried about gains and losses.
After entering the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan was fine when he was in charge, but it was not much different from the Sui Dynasty.
But when Li Shimin became emperor, he was on the path of a wise ruler, which made Zhao Yuankai, who had always been flattering his subjects, feel a little confused. He didn't know how to be a good official or a good person.
"A gentleman is harmonious but different. Although we and Dou Sinong do not follow the same path, we must do our best to fight against locusts. Since that's the case, how can we refuse Dou Sinong's invitation!" Li Tai said for grantedly
.
Zhao Yuankai watched Li Tai talk calmly. At such a young age, he was naturally impressed by his heart.
Instead, he was dissatisfied with his style, so he couldn't help but calm down and said seriously, "Then we will go to the banquet in three days."
"We don't care about how Dou Sinong asks God for now, but how is the progress of hatching eggs going?" Li Tai said.
"There has been quite progress these days. Not only are the number of blood-striped eggs increasing, but some duck eggs even appear in heavy shadows through the eggshell. Officials from the Dianzu Department said that if they continue, it will be faster than one or two days, and it will be slower than the next day.
Then four or five days later, I believe it will hatch!”
Zhao Yuankai was also excited when he said this, and his career was overwhelming.
The plan to hatch eggs manually is progressing quite smoothly, which is the best reward for Zhao Yuankai.
Li Tai nodded, not surprised Li Tai about the successful creation of artificial egg hatching technology.
Because as long as the direction is correct, the next step is to try one after another. If you try too much, you will always succeed.
The excellence of these land fire craftsmen far exceeded Li Tai's expectations.
In this era when there was no thermometer, they could find out the appropriate temperature for hatching duck eggs by relying on the contact between the skin and the hatch tank.
After determining this temperature, the temperature of the hatch tanks made next can be almost the same, which makes mass production of the hatch tank possible. It can be said that the skills they demonstrated are simply incredible.
It is their superb skills that are the important reason why Li Tai can realize his plan.
To be honest, Li Tai is not in a hurry. Just implement the plan step by step. As for what to invite the locust god, it is enough to treat it as a temple fair.
If this kind of thing can really solve the locust plague, the locust plague will not become one of the most troubled natural disasters in China.
"The next thing is to wait patiently, wait until the duck eggs are hatched, and wait until the artificial incubation technology is realized!" Li Tai was full of confidence.
Time flies very quickly, and three days are coming soon. Some duck eggs are already moving, but they have not broken their shells yet. However, what kind of life is moving in the eggs makes everyone feel expectant.
Li Tai and Zhao Yuankai naturally went to the Locust Temple to make an appointment. When they came here, they saw that there were many people sitting by the side of the Sinong Temple. Zhao Yuankai took the initiative to say hello to his colleagues, while Li Tai walked directly to Dou Sinong.
.
Li Titan spoke openly, "I have met Dou Sinong!"
"See King Yue!" Dou Jing said when he saw Li Tai, "It was really beyond my expectations that King Yue could come."
"Why?" Li Tai asked back with a little curiosity when he heard Dou Jing's words.
"Young man is so proud of your face. I'm afraid you will be jealous of King Yue." Dou Jing said, "Now it seems that King Yue is really kind-hearted!"
"I also love the excitement. Maybe it will be the last time I have seen the ceremony of the gods in my life, so I have to come and have a look no matter what!" Li Tai said to Dou Jing without being outdone.
Hearing Li Tai's words, Dou Jing's face showed a little hesitation, and was about to say something to Li Tai, and she sang the name at the door at this time.
"Li Gang and Li Shaobao, Kong Yingda, the man from Kong County is here!"
Hearing this voice, the officials of Sinong Temple couldn't help but feel respectful.
Kong Yingda is nothing, and it is not the same as himself for the officials of Sinong Temple.
But Li Gang is different. He was a famous minister of the Sui Dynasty and a famous prince teacher. He had educated him like Yang Yong and Li Jiancheng, and he took himself out twice before the prince fell, which was unscathed.
In addition, Li Gang is now in his eighties, so his prestige among his ministers is still quite high.
"Why is Li Shaobao coming? King Yue, please come and sit down, I will go back."
Dou Jing looked a little confused on her face. After reacting, she decisively said goodbye to Li Tai and wanted to greet Li Gang first.
After all, this master is really giving face to come to the God Conference.
Li Tai agreed with a smile and looked at Li Gang with the momentum.
Li Tai knew a little about Li Gang, mainly checking the Song Dynasty Li Gang's results. A message from Li Gang of the Tang Dynasty also appeared on Baidu. He forgot what he specifically said. The only thing he remembered was Li Gang's name as the "Crown Prince Killer"
.
Any prince who was educated by him would die or be guilty of death.
Now he only has Yang Yong and Li Chengqian. He remembers that he will become Teacher Li Chengqian in the future.
Although he was not allowed to survive until Li Chengqian was deposed, he still fulfilled his historical mission. Li Chengqian was eventually deposed as the crown prince because of rebellion and then exiled.
"Li Gang... I don't know why he always feels that his broom is shining brightly, so he still sits there so as not to get into bad luck!"
Li Tai muttered in his heart, intending to wait until the ceremony of inviting the gods began, but he really didn't want to deal with Li Gang.
Li Tai's idea is naturally impossible to achieve his wish. Although Li Tai is just an eight-year-old brat, he has the identity of King of Yue and the only official position present. Li Gang and Kong Yingda are both polite people. He will definitely come to see Li Tai.
I'm coming to have a visit.
To a certain extent, this is also the reason why many gatherings have higher status and the more people come.
Because it came too early, it is very likely that the people below will come to say hello to you when they come. Please answer. If you feel annoyed, don’t answer, you are afraid that you will be gossiped about again.
So just come here later to avoid unnecessary ineffective social interaction.
At this moment, Li Gang and Kong Yingda did not expect that Dou Jing actually invited Li Tai.
After all, in the eyes of normal people, Dou Jing and Li Tai are not the same as the same, but they also have different political views.
So Li Tai will not be invited to the god invitation ceremony this time. But since Li Tai is here, they will naturally come over to meet him.
Li Gang met Li Tai.
Li Tai crossed his hands with his palms facing his body, saluted to Li Gang, and said, "I have met Li Shaobao."
"The King of Yue is indeed a young talent!" Li Gang said after returning the favor, "Now the locust plague is everywhere, and I have also heard of the reputation of King of Yue's generous donation. There are wise saints in the Tang Dynasty and wise kings who can definitely survive this disaster.
The people are peaceful.”
"Young Master Li has guaranteed the award!" Li Tai smiled when he heard Li Gang's words.
"Li Shaobao, King Yue is still young, and I am afraid that he will not be named a wise king!" Kong Yingda frowned when he heard Li Gang's words.
"Should you be, be yes!" Li Gang said slowly, "The wise king is in his heart but not in his reputation. The King of Yue can give 160 gold to the locust plague. Who else can give so much money to rescue the locust plague? This is real
I'm so happy!"
Kong Yingda's brows frowned even more. Although he was not very comfortable looking at Li Tai and even resisted a little, he did not bother with an eight-year-old child, so he treated King Yue coldly.
But Li Gang recommended Li Tai as the King of Wise at this moment. To be honest, Kong Yingda doesn’t think this is a good thing, because can an eight-year-old child really afford to be called King of Wise?
More importantly, if Li Tai becomes the wise king, it will naturally be highlighted by Li Shimin's son. The first person to be affected is the current crown prince Li Chengqian, who is afraid that the Xuanwu Gate will reappear.
Kong Yingda didn't know whether Li Gang was intentional or unintentional, but no matter what, if Li Tai accepted the title of Virtuous King, it wouldn't matter to Li Tai, but it did have some uneasiness for the future of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Tai listened to Li Gang's words and licked his face decisively: "I just want to share Aye's worries, it's really not worth mentioning.
But Li Shaobao admires it so much...
Zhao Shaoqing, is there any paper and pen in Sinong Temple? Let Mr. Li keep the 'Victorial King's' treasures!"
"Yes, yes!" Zhao Yuankai originally thought that he was only responsible for watching the show, but he didn't expect that he would still be on the stage.
He decisively prepared the pen and ink as quickly as possible and placed it in front of Li Gang, and said with a sincere look, "Please also ask Li Shaobao to give the ink treasure!"
"Zhao Shaoqing's movements are quite fast!" Li Gang's face twitched, but he only praised Li Tai.
This will leave behind the wise king Mo Bao. I am afraid that I will not become a flattering minister like Zhao Yuankai!
Li Gang bit the bullet and faced Li Tai's shamelessness, Mo Bao was afraid that he would not be able to escape.
At this time, Dou Jing turned around to rescue the siege. Although he couldn't stand Li Gang's evaluation of Li Tai Xianwang, if Li Gang really kept his magic treasure, there would be hidden dangers in the Tang Dynasty in the future.
So Li Gang interrupted decisively and said, "Wait for a moment, the auspicious time has come, and we will start to invite the Locust God."
As he spoke, Li Gang refused, and Li Tai couldn't help feeling a pity. He muttered to the wise king's calligraphy in his heart, and he would have to make up for anything he said in the future.
Although he disliked him for being unlucky, he would be very happy if he really got on his own ship.
At this time, everyone took their seats and asked the Locust God to officially begin the ceremony.
This ceremony is a bit like a temple fair inviting the city god. Simply put, the people carry the locust gods and walk along a fixed route.
First there is a play and singing, then there is a finale of suona, and the storm of the storm makes everyone hope that after inviting the Locust God this time, he can protect the land and let the locusts not cause trouble.
Dou Jing saw that the ceremony of inviting God was held lively and hoped that the locusts would not come again.
But no one expected that at this moment, the sky suddenly became yellow, as if one hand was pouring in.
Also coming is the unique sound of insects that are insects that are roaring.
The locust plague expected by Li Tai arrived as scheduled in May, and the locust invitation ceremony was accompanied by the locust invitation ceremony, which once again rages around Chang'an.
At this moment, Dou Jing looked at the yellow sky and sat on the ground, no longer having a calm attitude.
