Chapter 582: Your Majesty has always been a bad guest
The pine forest in the distance looks even more beautiful in the rain, and a few birds can be seen sitting on the branches of the trees.
Looking south from the main house, after passing Huaqing Pool, you will see a trail in the distance leading directly to the bottom of the mountain.
Li Yue smiled and said, "The military manual says that to hold on to the mountains, you need to store water, cut down the trees, dig out the turf, and burn it into scorched earth."
My daughter-in-law's reading is very broad, she reads everything, including medical and military books.
Zhang Yang was lying on the ground, looking at the gloomy sky. The rain had lightened up, but there was still a steady drizzle falling.
"For others, the military strategy is one thing, but for me, it is another thing. Leaving this mountain forest has a very good hiding effect for me."
"What if someone else sets the mountain on fire?"
Zhang Yang used a cloth belt as a belt around his waist. He raised his rough feet and took out a cattail leaf fan from his lower back. "Otherwise, why do you think you have been busy building such a complicated canal in Lishan for half a year?"
.”
I was thinking about what Lishan looks like now. My husband had previously thought of changing the channels because the drainage channels in Lishan were too old and there were many places where there were congestion.
Today, the waterway in Lishan Mountain is built around the mountain, and the water flows down from the mountain, through the fields, and all the way to the Weihe River.
First of all, to keep the family business, Lishan needs to be made impregnable.
Secondly, Li Shimin would not let Lishan support himself with troops. He would rather surround Lishan with soldiers and horses.
This is what he did to escape the summer heat this year.
With nothing to do, Zhang Yang remembered that his aunt had brought a large leg of lamb from Chang'an City this morning.
Zhang Yang stood up and said again: "I don't know how the glass is being fired?"
She glanced at her husband suspiciously and said, "glazed glass is made of heaven. How could something so precious be burned just by being burned?"
Every time I wanted to argue with my husband, he would always say that glass is made by firing some stones, and you can have as much as you want by mastering the method.
The children are having fun, Li Lizhi has strong organizational skills, and Xiao Wu and Xu Hui are good helpers.
The children stood in a row, counting in unison and playing skipping rope, having a great time.
The cost is low, and it allows children to have fun and exercise.
Zhang Yang tied up his apron and looked at a huge leg of lamb. He picked up his kitchen knife and cut various parts skillfully.
The method used by the cook to deconstruct the cow is to become familiar with the internal structure of the tibia of the animal, so that each part of the cow can be sealed into several pieces while retaining the best bones and flesh.
The lamb leg was skillfully broken down, the bones of the lamb were reserved for roasting, and the remaining joints were used to stew the soup.
As dusk approached, a roast mutton meal was served in front of my house.
Zhang Yang also put some naan cakes aside and baked them.
The children were tired of playing. They salivated and swallowed as they looked at the skewers of mutton.
It's the most critical time for your body to grow. After playing for a day and you feel tired, you have to eat, and then continue playing after eating.
They are like little monsters that are constantly absorbing nutrients to strengthen themselves, tearing into the mutton and chewing it ferociously.
Xiao Qingqing grabbed the mutton with one hand and chewed it hard, opening and closing her little mouth very hard.
Not long after, Li Shimin came, and there was nothing he could do about this evil guest.
The children called "Father" in unison. Li Shimin nodded slightly, sat down silently, picked up a piece of mutton and ate it.
Zhang Yang held a piece of naan bread that was still hot to the touch. The baked naan bread was crispy and crispy. He broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth to chew, "Is the meal arranged by His Highness the King of Wei not to your liking?"
The aunt brought ale to His Majesty, and Li Shimin took it with one hand and drank the refreshing ale with a bit of bitterness. "The meals arranged by Qingque are very good, but I feel that the children are not alive in the palace."
Even if he is an emperor, he is also the father of his children.
The prince hurriedly stepped forward. It was a bit difficult to climb the mountain. He stood quietly aside to see what His Majesty needed and to serve him at any time.
Zhang Yang looked back at the group of children. They were all eating deliciously. Li Lizhi took care of Xiao Qingqing as she ate the meat and helped her wipe her mouth.
Looking away, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Yes, the children are so carefree."
Seeing the children having so much fun in Lishan, Li Shimin felt empty. These children were not so comfortable when they were in the palace.
"Sometimes I wonder if this dad didn't do a good job."
"All parents are like this. My parents often failed to teach me well, but I still grew up strong. Everyone has a feeling of debt, but I hope you have a clear conscience. To be honest with you, the people I met when I was a child were all very nice.
of."
The ale wine was not very intoxicating, so Li Shimin drank it sip after sip, "Tell me about your childhood."
Night began to cover Lishan Mountain, and the moon hung in the sky early.
When it was completely dark and stars appeared in the night sky, the children were still noisy as they were fighting for toys.
Zhang Yang looked at the starry sky and recalled his childhood. He told the emperor about his childhood, "I was born in a very remote mountain village. My parents were both farmers. Fortunately, my father learned the craft from others and opened a small business by himself."
Workshop, used to forge some iron tools."
"Later...a volunteer teacher came from the county, and all the children in the village went to school. This teacher taught very patiently and cared about us."
"It's embarrassing to say that." Zhang Yang lowered his head and said, "Children were very wild at that time. Some children ran to the county town for three or four days and did not come back. Their parents didn't care. My teacher would walk for several miles to take these children.
Bring the children back and don't let them hang out with those idle people."
"I learned a lot from my teacher. He is the most important guide in my life. He also opened my horizons and guided us on the right path. Otherwise, how could I have learned so many skills."
Li Shimin said solemnly: "Your teacher has many disciples?"
Zhang Yang nodded, "I told the prince before that my classmates are also very powerful, and there are many people who are better than me."
"Where are your fellow disciples?"
Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "The world is so big, how can I know where they are?"
"I heard that you fled with others and were homeless?"
"Yes."
"You fled all the way from Tongguan to Chang'an City. Where was your original hometown?"
"Hometown is gone."
Zhang Yang spoke against his will, raised his head and continued to look at the starry sky, and said loudly: "The eternal starry sky has never changed, the day and night, the sun, the moon and the stars have never changed.
He raised his head and faced the starry sky and said: "Your Majesty, I have always been in my hometown and have never left."
Seeing that Zhang Yang was unwilling to say more, Li Shimin stopped asking further questions.
The monarch and his ministers sat quietly by the pool.
The monarch and his ministers, who had been so noisy at noon today, now sit quietly and talk like two close friends.
The prince stood aside with his eyes closed, feeling complicated. The relationship between His Majesty and the county prince was really incredible.
After chatting for half an hour, Zhang Yang said with a smile: "I want to build a bell tower in Lishan Mountain."
Li Shimin nodded slightly, "I heard from Zhimu that when I asked you to build a new home in Lishan, someone had already impeached someone for exceeding the regulations. Is the bell tower you want to build very high?"
Shaking the cattail leaf fan in his hand, Zhang Yang said lightly, "I have read the construction book. This aspect follows the laws of the Sui Dynasty. Counting from the horizon, my bell tower is built on the mountain, but it does not house people, and it does not
Instead of standing upright, you can lie down horizontally, so that you can get around the overstepping rules. Your Majesty said it would be fine for me to take advantage of the loopholes, as it will not cause any trouble to the court."
After drinking too much ale, Li Shimin burped. From the palace to Lishan, the children's laughter also stopped.
He stood up slowly, already feeling sleepy, and straightened his clothes, "There is no Zhongle, and there are no servants to take care of it. It is just such a simple house with a pond. Isn't it desolate to live like this? Even Yu Shinan's family still has ten people.
Several maids are waiting on you."
"Sigh...Mr. Yu Shinan must be different from ordinary people in being strong and strong. I deeply admire him."
A gust of trade wind blew by, and it was about to rain. Zhang Yang also stood up. Just now, the moon was still bright and the stars were sparse. Now the stars and moon were gone in the night sky. A burst of thunder flashed in the distant sky. The weather in June was changeable.
It hadn't rained yet, but the sky in the distance was already filled with thunderbolts. It was too far away to hear the thunder.
Zhang Yang cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, my family came from poverty. How can I dare to enter prosperity even though I am poor?"
After giving him a meaningful look, Li Shimin walked around Huaqing Pool and stepped onto the stone steps going down the mountain.
Zhang Yang said goodbye with a smile.
Returning to the small palace in Lishan, there was a burst of thunder in the night sky and heavy rain fell. Li Shimin hurriedly walked into the house.
Empress Changsun was sitting by the oil lamp reading a book, "This is a book compiled by Yue'er and Zhang Yang using the skills they have learned over the years."
Li Shimin took a look at the back of the book and saw the word science written on it.
"This guy really wants to continue writing books."
Thunder rumbled, and Empress Changsun saw that there were only a few pages in the book, and she frowned and put it down. It was not completely compiled, and there was only a simple sentence at the beginning: Examine the truth of the world and the form of existence of all things.
He helped his majesty take off his coat and asked, "If you go to Lishan, will your majesty gain anything?"
"Zhang Yang said half of it should be kept and half of it. He doesn't want to say too much, and I can't force him."
Empress Changsun adjusted her clothes and said, "Let's test it slowly in the future."
On Lishan Mountain, there was lightning and thunder in the night sky. Xiao Qingqing and Xiao Sizi were both frightened by the thunder and could not sleep.
Li Yue carried the two girls back to the bedroom, and his wife gave him a meaningful look.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Yang finally understood in his heart that he would sleep alone tonight.
When I came to the study, I picked up the teacup beside me and wanted to drink some tea. I found that the tea was gone, and I picked up the kettle and it was also empty.
Putting it down, Zhang Yang called out: "Xiao Hui."
While sorting toys with Xiao Wu, Xu Hui looked back and asked, "What are your instructions, Master?"
Zhang Yang shook the kettle in his hand and said, "Help me boil a kettle of water."
"Yes." Xu Hui obediently took the kettle, "Let's boil water now, the stove is still burning."
Zhang Yang held open the door of the study room and watched Xiao Wu patiently pick up the toys on the ground with his skirt folded in one hand. He then said, "Xiao Wu, bring some blank paper."
Xiao Wu raised his head and said, "Well, let's go now."
Putting down the blocks in his hands, Xiao Wu hurried out.
Xu Hui was sitting under the eaves, fanning the air outlet of the stove with a cattail leaf fan. The two sisters looked at each other and smiled. Xiao Wu held an umbrella and an oil lamp in one hand and went to the library nearby to take out a few rolls of thick white paper.
When the lightning flashed, you could see your own figure in an instant.
In the past, she might have been scared, but after learning knowledge from her master and teachers, and arming herself with those knowledge and concepts, Xiao Wu was not afraid of anything anymore. She walked out of the library and closed the door.
He slightly raised the umbrella in his hand and looked up at the lightning flashing in the night sky.
On Mount Li, I felt that the sky was so close, and my eyes looked even more arrogant to God. The secret of science lies in seeing through the situation of all things in the world.
The thunder in the sky is just that. This is the science taught by Master's words and deeds. It is a knowledge that can make people invincible in the world.
Control the rules of nature to see through illusions and use facts to verify truth.
Xiao Wu's cloth shoes stepped on the rain-wet ground, and he hurriedly walked to the eaves with a roll of paper in his arms.
Xu Hui smiled and said: "Sister, the teacher's paper is wet."
Xiao Wu looked down and saw that the end of the roll of paper was wet from the rain.
"It's okay, just bring it in." Zhang Yang said loudly after hearing the words of the two sisters outside the house.
The water was boiling, and Xu Hui and Xiao Wu walked into the study with paper and tea.
Zhang Yang raised the wick of the oil lamp and sorted the pieces of paper.
Xiao Wu cut off the wet end of the paper and spread it on the table in front of the master.
Xu Hui made a bowl of tea.
"Xiao Wu, go and get the sixth booklet from the second row and the third row of the bookshelf."
"Hmm." Xiao Wu responded and stepped forward, reaching for a booklet. He opened it curiously and took a look at it and asked, "Master, is this a scientific question outline?"
Zhang Yang took a sip of tea and nodded, "Well, your teacher compiled a book called Science."
Xu Hui helped grind it and whispered: "Once this book is published, it will definitely cause an uproar."
Growing up in a scholarly family, Xu Hui read a lot of books. He knew clearly what his teacher's science was about. Many concepts that were contrary to Yin and Yang, Confucianism and Taoism were bound to arouse condemnation from people in the world.
Zhang Yang took the pamphlet Xiao Wu brought and said, "I don't want the book of science to be published. I just wrote it down and slowly improved it later for Shanmen's inheritance."
Master's study is always messy, with various drawings and books scattered around.
The study room is actually very big, but after putting four or five bookshelves, it felt too small.
It is said that Master has too many books, but actually the teacher has more books to read. The entire library is the teacher’s study room.
The master only has one room in the main room.
Zhang Yang was revising the scientific outline. His wife wanted to put mechanics at the front, which was obviously inappropriate.
After taking a sip of tea, Zhang Yang said again: "What time is it?"
Xiao Wu looked at the pendulum clock in the main hall of the main house and replied: "It's midnight."
The house is very quiet, the thunder has stopped, but the heavy rain has no intention of stopping.
The little bear snored loudly and slept soundly.
Zhang Yang whispered: "Is there anything else to eat at home?"
It was during midnight snack time that Xiao Wu held a lot of books in his arms and was sorting out the study in a somewhat awkward manner, saying: "There is still a lot of mutton left tonight."
"Teacher, haven't you had enough to eat?"
Zhang Yang said with a straight face, "I had a long chat with His Majesty and only had three or two bites."
