Hearing this sound, Cheng Sanlang, who felt so hesitant and helpless, his eyes suddenly lit up and his back straightened instantly.
Soon, the fat and strong General Cheng strode into the palace and first bowed to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Then he raised his big foot and kicked Cheng Chubi, glared and cursed angrily.
"You little bastard, you actually mess around with things all day long. If I can't control you, why don't I beat you to death, you little bastard..."
Then General Cheng passed over Cheng Chubi, who looked confused and raised his hand to touch his butt.
That fat and strong body completely submerged Cheng Chubi behind his figure.
Li Shimin watched with a dark look on his face as this cheeky man saluted him with a playful smile.
"Your Majesty, this kid Lao Cheng won't do anything again. You tell Lao Cheng that you can't beat him to death if you turn around."
Li Ji, Li Jing and other important military officials of the Tang Dynasty all rolled their eyes in unison, like an old hen protecting its calf, why can't he be beaten to death?
Li Shimin shook his head helplessly.
"...Okay, Cheng Qing, please get out of the way, this kid...it's just a minor offense."
"Besides, he also created a useful weapon for the country. I...how can I punish him?"
Li Shimin was really embarrassed to beat up this young man who had just made meritorious service to the court for a few square bamboos in front of six important ministers.
Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin turned around and couldn't help but laugh and curse.
"This kid has made meritorious service to the imperial court again? Why don't I know, you little bastard, how can you be so low-key in your work? You even hide it from your father."
Li Jing shook his head dumbfounded. These father and son were simply two extremely shameless people, two pieces of flesh on a hob.
"Okay, Lao Cheng, come here quickly and squat in front of your son. There is no calf protector like you."
Cheng Yaojin chuckled and squeezed to Li Ji's side, using his elbow to move.
"Come on, come on, brother Mao Gong, let's squeeze together."
Li Ji's face turned green, but when he saw this bastard's bulging eyes, he had no choice but to give him half of the table angrily.
By the way, I briefly explained to Cheng Yaojin that the three children in your family have produced an incredible baby. That thing is definitely killing people and setting fire to the house...
Bah! It is a good treasure that the Tang Dynasty military troops can use when fighting against the enemy in the future.
General Cheng, who had already learned the news from the boss, quickly joined the discussion.
The two younger defendants, Cheng Chubi and Li Ke, were thrown into the Manna Hall to cool off. The two brothers stared blankly outside the Manna Hall.
Li Ke's expression was as resentful as that of the toothless old lady who had been squatting by the Daming Lake for more than fifty years.
"Brother Chu Bi, you are so dishonest. You went to Yongning Temple and you didn't call me your younger brother."
"Anyway, I can recruit dozens of people to give you more momentum."
Cheng Chubi laughed and crossed his arms.
"If you saw the gunpowder that Ning Xuan was tinkering with, you might come over to show off your merits to your father. I don't think I know what you're thinking."
"We are still not brothers. We can earn merit together. My younger brother can also earn more rewards from my father. It would be nice to invite everyone to drink and eat meat later."
The two unattractive juniors outside were chattering, and the several Tang military bosses inside were also having a headache.
By the way, there is only one person who has a headache, and that is Li Shimin. The other military bosses are obviously just making random ideas.
Li Ji repeatedly asked His Majesty to set up a gunpowder bureau under the Ministry of War specifically for the production of this gunpowder.
Only by handing it over to a military agency like the Ministry of War can we keep it confidential to the greatest extent possible.
Besides, this thing is completely different from the armor made by the weapons supervisor and the cold weapons of the Tang Dynasty.
The other few people were also gibbering. Some said that the weapons could be supervised by the production, and some thought that the young master could supervise the production.
As for Cheng Yao, he strongly recommends His Majesty to let him serve, no matter which department he is in.
In short, let my third child be the leader. He is the most familiar with this stuff anyway. Who else dares to say that he knows more about gunpowder than him?
Li Shimin, who was troubled by the noise from these old demons, finally raised his hand.
"Everyone in the family, please be quiet for now and let me think about it carefully..."
Facing Li Ke's endless complaints, Cheng Chubi was made dizzy by the northwest wind that was not full but made his face hurt.
The last thing I can do is promise that next time something happens, I will bring this brother who cut off the chicken head and burned the yellow paper with me.
Until this time, a head popped out of the Manlu Palace. It belonged to the bearded-faced guard Zhao Kun.
"Have you two cooled down enough? If so, come in."
Seeing the joyful smile on Zhao Kun's face, Cheng Chubi wanted to do the opposite.
However, with a sneeze, even the clear mucus flew out of his nose. Cheng Chubi rubbed his nose and could only give in and got into the warm spring-like dew palace.
#####
After Cheng Chubi and Li Ke walked into the palace honestly, they quickly took off their cold fur clothes and stepped forward to pay respects.
Then the two brothers sat upright and as quiet as chickens. Seeing these two guys, Li Shimin took a breath as if he had a toothache.
"Xian Nephew Chu Bi, how much do you know about this gunpowder?"
After hearing this, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but reveal a confident smile on his face, and raised his fingers.
"Uncle, my nephew can guarantee that there is no one in this world who knows gunpowder better than me, no one."
This gunpowder is extremely useful. It can be used not only in the military, but also in civil affairs. For example, it can be used for mining mountains, building roads, and cutting stones...
However, he was facing a group of military bosses, and they would definitely not be willing to hear about the industrial uses of this thing.
Then let’s talk about the military uses of gunpowder. For example, it can be used to make larger firecrackers and be used directly as grenades.
You can also bury this thing underground and use it as a mine. In short, whether it is used as an offensive weapon or a defensive weapon, gunpowder is worthy of the title of king.
Otherwise, why would it become one of the four great inventions?
Listening to Cheng Chubi's eloquent chatter, all the monarchs of the Tang Dynasty were leisurely and fascinated.
Although this kid talks nonsense one after another, and often talks serious nonsense, but his reminders and explanations.
It also gave the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty the wings of imagination to develop rich associations in the large-scale application of gunpowder weapons.
Think about it, a firecracker like this is tied to an arrow and fired into the enemy's formation, or a trebuchet is used to throw the lit thing into the enemy's formation.
Or when faced with an enemy rushing towards you, light one and throw it over.
Or during a night attack, the thing was set on fire and thrown into the enemy camp.
The extremely beautiful military ministers of the Tang Dynasty were full of thoughts, their expressions looked sinister, and their smiles looked a bit...
