Just now, Du He was still wondering why he made such a fuss at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Recital and why His Majesty Li Er had been holding back without saying anything.
It turns out that His Majesty Li Er is holding back his ultimate move.
Sure enough, Li Er said: "If you tell me the method of flying to the sky, I can forget about this matter!"
That's right, Li Er's focus has been on the hot air balloon since Du He fell from the sky.
That thing could actually make people fall from the sky. Others thought it was a magical object, but Li Er knew very well that there was no such thing in this world and it must be Du He's invention.
If this thing can be used by oneself, then thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers will no longer be an obstacle and can be crossed directly... The most important point is that when the New Army fights, the most difficult thing is to find out the enemy's movements, relying solely on the efficiency of scouts
Not to mention, it is easy to be annihilated by the enemy, but with this flying thing, you only need to send a few scouts on it, rise into the air, you can see the enemy's movements at a glance, and you can easily count the enemy's size.
How many roofs does the tent have, whether there are ambushes around it, etc.
This thing is simply a magical thing for marching and fighting!
Therefore, Li Er's heart was moved.
For this reason, he could not blame Du He for making a big fuss at the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival.
After hearing this, Du He looked at Li Er's fiery eyes and thought to himself, Damn, you really treat me like a silent lamb. You can't just hand over this good thing so easily this time.
He rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really smart, unlike those ordinary people who just think that I am pretending to be a ghost. In fact, this thing is my latest invention, a hot air balloon. The small one can ride one person."
, it can travel more than ten miles, and the big one can even carry more than a dozen people and travel hundreds of miles."
Li Er was dumbfounded after hearing this, and suddenly grabbed Du He's arm in excitement: "Are you serious? Traveling hundreds of miles? Doesn't it mean that... the area around Chang'an can be reached?"
"Yes, that's the theory."
Du He pretended to be enigmatic.
Li Er couldn't wait to say: "Hurry up and hand it over!"
Du He said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I have invented this thing. However, a few days ago, Her Royal Highness Princess Changle was brought back to the palace, and there was news that she was going to marry the Sikong Mansion. This made me feel uncomfortable.
, having trouble sleeping and eating, feeling depressed... Oops, my head suddenly hurts, ah... it hurts... Oops, I seem to have lost my memory, Your Majesty, what were we discussing just now?"
"you……"
Li Er pointed at Du He, his face a little angry, but helpless.
This thing was invented by Du He. Apart from that, no one else has ever heard of it, let alone the invention. Even if I get angry and kill Du He, it will not help.
Li Er turned his head, looked at Du He seriously, and finally said helplessly: "Okay, brat, what are the conditions? As long as I can do it, I will definitely agree to it."
"hey-hey……"
Du He then showed a smile and said: "Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, you promised me personally that when I become the Duke of the country and make great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, you can marry the two princesses to me. This is also
It won't be long before Princess Changle is going to be married off to Changsun Chong, does this count as a broken promise?"
Hearing this, Li Er shook his head and sighed: "As I said just now, I also have difficulties in this matter."
Du He showed a look of disdain and said: "Your Majesty, you are fooling the children. You are a majestic emperor and a famous king throughout the ages. This little thing can still trouble you. Anyway, I don't care. If you do it this time
If you don’t give me a clear answer, I’m afraid I won’t be able to recover my memory for a while, and I won’t be able to remember it at all..."
Li Er: "..."
Isn't this Chi Guoguo's rogue behavior?
But Li Er had no choice.
Li Eryi rolled his sleeves: "Okay, okay, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Du He chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, there is no evidence for the oral instructions. Let's prove it with words."
"You... this matter makes it difficult for me to even talk about it, and you actually asked me to write it down for you? Maybe during the Dragon Boat Festival, if word gets out, where will my prestige be?" Li Er hurriedly refused.
In exchange for his own daughter, this matter was not a glorious thing in the first place, but Du He actually wanted to write it down by himself? There was no way.
Du He comforted: "Your Majesty, we can write a little more obscurely, not so straightforward. Well, just write it like this. Just say that Your Majesty has great love for me and appreciates my talent very much. If I can help the Tang Dynasty,
For your supreme merit, you can be granted the title of Duke of our country in the future, and Princess Runan and Princess Changle have been attracted to me for a long time. If I can successfully become the Duke of the country, how about marrying the two princesses to me?"
Li Er blew his beard and said with a glare: "You stinky boy, you know this and I know it. Don't let the third person know, otherwise, I won't be able to spare you. However, I don't just want the hot air balloon, I also want you."
The method of flooding, and the thing that explodes in the air...there are three in total."
"No problem!" Du He agreed simply.
Afterwards, Du He drafted a contract, signed his name, took his fingerprints, and finally stamped it with Li Er's big seal.
After the contract was settled, Li Er couldn't wait to urge: "Now, can you tell me how to make the hot air balloon?"
Du He carefully folded the contract and put it away, turned around and said, "Your Majesty, before I speak, please find a place to sit down."
"Huh? Why?" Li Er asked.
"You'll find out later."
In order to obtain the method of making a hot air balloon as soon as possible, Li Er hurriedly sat down on a rotating wooden chair nearby.
Du He asked: "Your Majesty, please sit still and hold on to the armrests."
Li Er did as he was told.
Du He then said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the method of making a hot air balloon is very simple. An eight-year-old child can do it. The hot air balloon is just the name I gave it. In fact, it has another name, which is... Kongming Lantern."
puff.
Li Er's legs went weak and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
hot air balloon?
Kongming lantern?
Who doesn't know about Kongming Lanterns? An important program in Chang'an City every year during the Lantern Festival is to release Kongming Lanterns. It has become a scene of the Lantern Festival and is widely welcomed by the people. This is not necessarily true for eight-year-old children, but as long as they are adults, making Kongming Lanterns is a must.
no problem.
And Du He actually said that the hot air balloon he flew into the sky was the Kongming Lantern, which made Li Er, who had been yearning for it for a long time, feel unbearable.
If he hadn't sat down a long time ago and held on to the armrest, he might have fallen to the ground.
Li Er reacted, with a sullen look on his face. He grabbed a plate of snacks next to him unhappily and threw it towards Du He.
Du He was not a guy like Zhao Yang who always got hit. He nimbly dodged and jumped to the side to avoid it.
