"Do you really have a way?"
Li Shimin was shocked.
He didn't think highly of this matter. After all, no one other than Feng Zi could produce so many armaments in such a short period of time.
When Yuchi Gong heard Li Shimin's question, he said with certainty, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that this waterwheel has a great use?"
With that said, Li Shimin was instantly enlightened.
He also remembered that Zhang Feng had said that this waterwheel wasn't just used for the phosphate fertilizer factory. .
More importantly, it had to be used in other areas. For example, it could allow hundreds of weaving machines to work at the same time.
This seemed a little ridiculous, but the appearance of the phosphate fertilizer factory gave Li Shimin hope.
When the people of the three tribes saw that Yuchi Gong had taken the initiative to take on this huge burden, they couldn't help but be secretly delighted. At this moment, Li Shimin said calmly, "Then, I'll leave this matter to you and the three tribes. You must confirm the armaments of Longyou before the end of the year. Otherwise, I'll punish you severely!"
"Your Majesty, we obey!"
Without waiting for Yuchi Gong to agree, the people of the three tribes hurriedly agreed. Now that Yuchi Gong was taking on the burden, they couldn't wait for it to happen.
After that, when they discussed the phosphate fertilizer factory again, there was almost nothing to say. No one dared to say that the Crown Prince shouldn't go to the border anymore.
It was fine if he didn't go, but he had to offer something, right?
At the very least, he had to stabilize the morale of the army. Finalize it, right?
But who among these people could handle it?
Who had the ability to do so?
No one!
This was a matter of whether hundreds of thousands of soldiers and soldiers could survive the winter. Who would be so stupid as to block it?
Naturally, everyone agreed with the Crown Prince's decision to go to the border.
After all, with Niu Jinda's personal protection and the Crown Prince's performance in Chang 'an City, this matter was almost set in stone.
In addition, at this time, the phosphate fertilizer plant had officially started operations. This might be related to whether they could make a lot of money in the next year.
Moreover, the phosphate fertilizer had been handed over to a few students from White Deer College. The Ministry of Works was in charge of it, but Li Xiaogong was in charge of it.
Although they didn't know who came up with this idea, this matter was beneficial to them and had no disadvantages.
Today's morning court session lasted for a full three hours before it finally ended.
The Minister of Agriculture, the Minister of Works, and the Minister of Duzhi had been waiting outside for a long time as soon as the Imperial Court ended. As soon as Yuchi Gong came out, the three of them hurried over to greet him.
"Lord Yuchi!"
"Lord Yuchi, wait!"
Originally, Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin, Wei Zheng, and the others had been a bit puzzled by the muffled thunder in the palace last night and the Emperor's vague attitude today. They had prepared to go to the Emperor's place after morning court ended, but as soon as they left, they ran into these three.
Yuchi Gong stopped in his tracks in surprise.
A few of them hurriedly came forward and lit a cigarette for each of them. Only then did they say with a smile, "Lord Yuchi, I can't thank you enough for today's matter. Now that this matter is over, how about we invite all of you out for a drink?"
Yuchi Gong and the others knew about this matter, but the three of them didn't. They knew the whole story.
Yuchi Gong, Wei Zheng, and the others smiled and then waved their hands. "Forget about the drink. It won't be too late to talk about it after this matter is over, but …"
"Since the three of you are so kind, why don't you go, Old Man Yuchi?"
Cheng Yaojin took the opportunity to fan the flames.
Although this matter wasn't a big deal to them, for the three of them, it was a matter that could cost them their lives.
Moreover, it was a good thing to have the three ministries owe them a favor. At the very least, they would have to trouble them for many things in the future.
For example, the Minister of Agriculture.
And Du Zhi.
Yuchi Gong also understood Cheng Yaojin's words. He smiled and cupped his fists. "Everyone, I still have important matters to attend to. This matter is quite complicated. Let's not drink today. I have to quickly investigate this year's mulberry and hemp."
When the three of them heard this, they knew the importance of this matter. They hurriedly cupped their fists and said, "Thank you very much, Lord Yuchi. We also have to go back and check the situation of the treasury."
After saying that.
Yuchi Gong and the others hurriedly left.
After walking out of the Red Phoenix Sect, they turned a corner and entered the East Palace through the Yanxi Gate.
However, they didn't expect that the Emperor and the Crown Prince were sitting in the East Palace, waiting. This. When the three of them entered the East Palace, they invited Little Guizi over.
As soon as they entered, they saw a huge thing covered with red silk placed in the center of the East Palace's main hall.
Li Shimin also went straight to the point. "Dear ministers, I know you all want to know what happened in the palace last night. Today, I will tell you that last night, the Retired Emperor blew up the Yangxin Palace Hall."
"…"
In an instant.
The few of them were completely stirred up.
After all, this was a big matter. And the Retired Emperor … actually blew up the Yangxin Palace Hall …
What was going on?
And he used the word 'blow up'.
Could it be …
"You guessed right. This thing is the divine weapon that Feng Zi tinkered with, the cannon!"
"…"
