It has been a year since the construction of Daming Palace started.
If we relied on contemporary construction techniques, we would have to wait at least three years.
But the Tang Dynasty where Li Chengqian lived was far from the Tang Dynasty in history.
Under the influence of Li Chengqian, a time traveler, the construction technology at this time has been improved by several levels.
Even a small warship can be built, let alone a palace.
And after this year. ??
The main building of Daming Palace has basically been completed.
What's more, the independent small garden of Daming Palace is already full of flowers and plants.
Only some details of the dormitory remain to be decorated.
Li Chengqian walked along the main hall, walked into the Daming Palace, and came to the sleeping hall.
See him coming.
All the craftsmen kowtowed and saluted.
"I'll wait to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"No need, no need!"
Li Chengqian waved his hand casually and said, "Whatever you have to do, I just came over to take a look."
Everyone agreed, and then they got up to do things.
And this time.
Little Chuzi also ran to his side and asked in a low voice with a smile: "Your Highness, why did you come here suddenly?"
"Is there something you can't do, so you think of me?"
"Or maybe it's just because I didn't see my slave when I got up today, so I miss you?"
Hear this.
Li Chengqian's face suddenly darkened.
He also immediately remembered the goodness of Long Yang in history.
This special thing is taboo in modern times, and it is still considered to be something that will arouse the anger of both humans and gods.
But this guy was so lucky that he actually asked me if I missed him in front of everyone.
Isn’t this damn thing just waiting for people to misunderstand it?
Li Chengqian didn't even think about it and kicked him on the spot, knocking Xiao Chuzi to the ground.
"You've got your brain kicked by a donkey, haven't you?"
Li Chengqian looked at him with a puzzled face and said, "Can you say this?"
That moment.
< br> Li Chengqian wanted to kill this guy.
And little Chuzi also realized that his joke was too big, and he looked embarrassed.
"Slave, slave..."
"Okay, okay!"
"Stop talking that useless nonsense!"
Li Chengqian glanced around and saw that the craftsmen were secretly looking at him. He was also worried that what he said was wrong, so he said to the little Chuzi: "Get up quickly and take me to the dormitory to take a look."
"Yes Yes……"
Xiao Chuzi quickly responded and led Li Chengqian towards the direction of the dormitory.
The bedrooms in the Daming Palace are even more luxurious than those in the Imperial Palace.
After all, it was built by Li Shimin for Li Yuan, and this is how it is promoted to the outside world.
If the construction is not good.
Then it was definitely Li Shimin who was scolded later.
Therefore, at the beginning of the design, Li Shimin ordered the designer to make it more luxurious than the imperial palace.
Li Shimin did this not only to let Li Yuan enjoy his old age.
He also has his own selfish motives.
In a certain sense.
As long as Li Yuan stayed in the Daming Palace, it meant that the Daming Palace was said to be the residence of the Supreme Emperor.
In the future, after Li Yuan's death, he, the Supreme Emperor, can legitimately settle in it.
According to Li Chengqian’s understanding of Li Shimin.
It is very possible that the latter was his original intention.
Of course.
He didn't dare to say this directly.
After walking around the palace, Li Chengqian was also very satisfied with the current progress of the project.
He turned to Xiao Chuzi and asked, "Have you communicated with the foreman? When will it be completed?"
"Report to Your Highness."
Xiao Chuzi answered truthfully: "The foreman said it would take at least two months.
"
"Two months..."
Li Chengqian lowered his head and murmured, then shook his head and said, "No, two months is too long."
"It's almost midsummer now."
"The humidity in Da'an Palace is very heavy, and it's not comfortable to live there."
"It would be easier if the Emperor were a few years younger, but now he is almost seventy years old."
"If he is allowed to live in that kind of place again, he will be in trouble if his health is damaged."
"I can give him a month at most."
"After one month, Daming Palace must accept the completion."
Listen to this.
Little Chuzi also had a bitter look on his face.
Although he has just arrived today, he has already heard a lot about it.
"Your Highness."
"If we rely on the current manpower, I'm afraid it won't be possible."
Little Chuzi said: "After all, we are building a palace, and the craftsmen we use are all top-notch folk. Whether it is painting or carving, it takes time, and the furniture in the palace has not been built yet. This takes time, a month or so.
It’s true…”
"What's true?"
Li Chengqian said calmly: "If you need people, I can give you people; if you need money, I will give you money."
"Anyway, there is only one result I want, and that is to build the Daming Palace for me as soon as possible."
"If it can't be built, I'll look for you as the supervisor first!"
After saying this, Li Chengqian didn't hesitate for a moment, turned around and left.
Saw this scene.
The expression on Xiao Chuzi's face became increasingly bitter.
Doesn't this embarrass him?
But strictly speaking, this is not difficult.
after all.
He Li Chengqian said, if you want money, give money to others.
Maybe he can do it if he brings in more people.
Thinking of this.
Xiao Chuzi quickly opened his mouth and shouted: "Xiao Guizi! Go and call Carpenter Wang over here." !”
"yes!"
A young eunuch standing next to him immediately responded and ran over to call someone.
At this moment, Xiao Chuzi completely lost the humble look he had in front of Li Chengqian just now, and glanced at the craftsmen around him with a stern face.
In front of Li Chengqian.
The little Chuzi is indeed a little humbler.
But that's because the person in front of him is the prince Li Chengqian.
As a slave, he must humble himself in front of the prince Li Chengqian.
But if he is in front of others, he naturally does not need to be humble.
after all.
He is the internal affairs manager of the East Palace.
In terms of managing internal affairs in this imperial city, the only one older than him is his father.
Who does he need to be afraid of?
…
And the other side.
Li Chengqian walked out of Daming Palace and returned to the East Palace.
When he came back, Li Tai had already left.
Li Chengqian also breathed a sigh of relief and sat behind the table minding his own business, reading the prince's memorial.
In fact, he could see or not read these memorials.
The several places he manages are already on the right track.
Just follow the rules he specified every day, and there won't be any problems.
And the reason why he comes to see it every day.
It was nothing more than giving Li Shimin the illusion that he was busy all day long.
Otherwise, I don’t know what errands Li Shimin would send him to trouble him.
And when he saw one of the memorials, Li Chengqian couldn't help but be stunned.
It's not because the content inside is so exciting, but the person who presented the memorial is a bit special.
It is actually a memorial of high quality.
Li Chengqian read it carefully several times to confirm that he had read it correctly.
This is the memorial of Gao Zhixing.
And Li Chengqian was also puzzled: "Why was his memorial sent to me?"
