Chapter 491 The Tian family couple came together again
Today I learned a very important lesson, which Li Qinzai found very meaningful. As for whether the students can empathize with it or not, it all depends on their understanding.
The idea of building a hydraulic press just popped into my head. The main reason is that the location where the reservoir is built is so beautiful that people really can't refuse the idea.
Of course, Li Qinzai was not sure what changes the hydraulic press would bring to the world when it appeared in the Tang Dynasty when it should not have appeared.
Perhaps, the bud of Datang industry has already stubbornly poked its head out of the soil. As long as there are enough nutrients, it will be a thousand years earlier than the Industrial Revolution in the West.
The world has changed, and history has also changed. Will the century-old history of humiliation that has made the Chinese people feel uneasy be repeated?
People are like their country, and a country is like its people.
As long as the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties still exists and the spirit is immortal, it is not that important whether there are advanced weapons and industries.
The next day, distinguished guests came to Ganjingzhuang.
Li Zhi and Empress Wu came again.
The word "you" is very smooth.
Emperors are often narcissistic and think that their great presence brings great honor to others. In fact, Li Qinzai dislikes it very much.
When the emperor and empress travel, there are thousands of Yulin Guards. Although they do not disturb the people and do not occupy private houses, it is unbearable to be stationed in the wild. If nothing else, everyone urinates in the wild, and within half a year of the surrounding area
There is a lingering anger in them all.
A single drop of urine can bring so much inconvenience to farmers, not to mention their food and drink, the household garbage they produce every day, and the skin of their feet that they pick out when they are idle...
Therefore, in this era, the emperor's travel is the greatest damage to the environment.
What happened to Li Zhi and Wu happened suddenly. Yesterday, the hydraulic press built by Li Qinzai was immediately reported to Chang'an. When Li Zhi heard about it, he was greatly moved and had many doubts, so he eagerly issued an order and rushed to Ganjingzhuang.
The middle door of the Li family courtyard was wide open, and Li Qinzai led his family and servants to stand outside the door, waiting for the chariot of Li Zhi and Empress Wu.
Not long after, a group of Yulin guards opened the way and cleared the door of the Li family's courtyard. Li Zhi's imperial chariot came slowly, accompanied by countless palace officials.
Li Qinzai hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Li Zhi and Empress Wu were helped out of the imperial chariot by the palace servants. Li Zhi laughed loudly and said, "There is no need to be polite Jingchu. I came suddenly, so I am disturbing you."
Li Qinzai blinked, these polite words were actually the truth, you really bothered me.
"It's a great honor for Your Majesty and the Empress to come in person, and the humble abode is filled with splendor." Li Qinzai also said polite words, but they were definitely not the truth.
Li Zhi stepped forward, leaned into Li Qinzai's ear, and whispered: "...Has a cow fallen to death on your farm recently?"
Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, then immediately continued: "Your Majesty, you are so blessed. You happened to fall to death a cow this morning. Isn't it a coincidence? Isn't it?"
Li Zhilongyan was delighted: "Okay, it was a good fall... Well, no, it was a bad fall. My Tang Dynasty lost a farm cow. It's so sad, so sad!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, showing a great understanding.
Empress Wu beside her couldn't stand it any longer and said softly: "Your Majesty! Don't lose your decency."
Li Qinzai hurriedly saluted Empress Wu again.
Empress Wu pursed her lips and smiled, and said calmly: "Jingchu always surprises me."
Li Qinzai lowered his head and said, "I have little talent and little knowledge, and cannot be put to great use. I only occasionally make gadgets to entertain myself and others."
"Don't underestimate yourself, Jingchu is very capable." Empress Wu chuckled.
Li Zhi quickly glanced at Empress Wu, then smiled at Li Qinzai and said: "Let's go and get some beef with me. The beef you brought into the palace last time was so delicious. The meat was rotten and the soup was thick. I have eaten it once and haven't eaten it since."
Endless aftertaste.”
"Your Majesty, the stew requires heat. Please wait patiently."
"It doesn't matter, go and get ready, I can afford to wait."
…………
Li Zhi was indeed very patient when it came to eating. Li Qinzai stewed a pot of beef for two hours, and Li Zhi also waited patiently for two hours.
Two hours later, the fragrant beef was served. Li Zhi swallowed his saliva and laughed and said, "Okay, okay! I can eat the beef cooked by Jingchu himself today, so my trip was not in vain."
Empress Wu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are not here for the beef, are you? Don't forget about business."
Li Zhi's smile froze slightly, and his tone had an inexplicable indifference: "I am measured."
Seeing that Li Zhi was unhappy, Empress Wu hurriedly straightened her expression, holding her breath and concentrating without a smile.
Li Qinzai silently watched the expressions of the two of them, and was suddenly shocked.
Hey, what's wrong with this couple? There seems to be something wrong with the atmosphere.
So Li Qinzai also cheered up and dealt with it carefully. He also secretly made a decision. If the couple started fighting over disagreements, he would never participate, but he could consider pretending to have accidentally left two things for Li Zhi.
weapon.
Such as maces, small whips, candles, remote controls, pens, etc.
As for why I left the pen...
You can't use a knife to draw the word "正" on your thigh.
"The perfectly cooked beef stew, your majesty and the queen, please try it. The most beautiful people and delicious food in the world cannot be let down."
Li Zhi said happily: "Well said, beautiful people and delicious food should not be let down."
Picking up the bamboo chopsticks, Li Zhi picked up a piece of beef. The beef was stewed so well that it almost melted in the mouth. Li Zhi's eyes widened and he praised it.
Even Empress Wu was so gluttonous that she couldn't help but grab a piece of beef and take a bite. Then Empress Wu was finally smitten by the delicious food.
"Jing Chu has a pair of skillful hands. Not only can he create all kinds of unheard-of novelty things, but he is also so proficient in cooking. I am very lucky." Empress Wu praised with a smile.
Li Qinzai twitched the corner of his mouth, hehe, if your husband has diabetes, you will be really lucky...
Delicious food and delicacies, even without wine at the table, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
Li Zhi ate so much that his belly was full, and he slumped lazily in the hall. While dozing off, he asked: "I heard that Jingchu created a new thing that can instantly turn a piece of iron into an iron sheet as thin as cicada wings."
, I really couldn’t bear it, so I came over to take a look..."
Li Qinzai said humbly: "Maybe it can be turned into iron sheet, but it won't be 'instantly'. It still needs to be struck a few more times."
Li Zhi snorted and said, "Stop for a moment and take me to have a look. Then tell me whether this thing will be beneficial to the country?"
Li Qinzai said: "Your Majesty, this thing can be used to forge various large-scale iron and bronze wares for the Tang Dynasty. It can do things that craftsmen cannot do."
"As long as the mold is prepared in advance, in theory, it can make anything the Tang Dynasty needs, from things for people's livelihood to military equipment."
Li Zhi's eyes lit up: "So magical? It can do things that craftsmen can't make?"
"Yes. For example, the Ordnance Supervisor needs to build a siege cone. The cone is more than ten feet long and has a diameter of more than ten feet. The front part is covered with a sharp metal. If it is left to a craftsman, it will take several days, but in the hydraulic press made by Chen
