To be honest, he was very curious about this. Although he knew that Feng Zi had made something that could fly up into the sky, no one had seen it before and no one knew about it.
He was not the only one who was curious. Everyone present was curious as well.
Li Shimin was also curious and asked, "Feng Zi, what's going on? Tell us. "
"Hehe, don't rush."
Zhang Feng chuckled and waved for everyone to sit down. "Sit down first. I'll get the canteen to prepare some dishes. We'll talk while eating."
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin swallowed his saliva and felt his taste buds begin to bloom.
He had not been able to eat or sleep well in the past few days in the palace.
Now that Feng Zi was back, he felt a little better. It would be great if he could freeload off the Academy's delicacies.
Thus, he said, "Okay, let's talk while eating."
Zhang Feng was naturally happy. He turned and waved at the door to ask someone to prepare the dishes.
Not long after, a few students came up with braised meat, roasted chicken, and other things. They placed everything neatly on the table, turned around, and left.
Zhang Feng waved to everyone and smiled. "Come, come, sit down. Don't be shy."
Li Shimin smiled faintly and sat down near Zhang Feng.
"Old Wei, Old Fang, why aren't you sitting?"
Zhang Feng saw that Wei Zheng and the others had not sat down and asked subconsciously.
Wei Zheng and the others looked expectantly at the food and wine, and then at Li Shimin. They had no choice. Without His Majesty's order, they did not dare to sit.
Li Shimin naturally knew what everyone was thinking. He waved his hand and said, "Sit down. We're happy today. Don't worry about this."
Then, he glanced at Little Guizi. "You sit too."
Little Guizi looked at Li Shimin in surprise.
He had wanted to sit down and taste the delicacies for a long time. His Majesty had not eaten well these past few days, so how could a servant dare to eat well? Thus, he naturally starved with His Majesty. Now that His Majesty had allowed him to sit down, this was a great gift.
Without hesitation, he chose a seat close to Li Shimin so that it would be easier for him to serve food to His Majesty.
When Li Shimin saw that everyone was seated, he looked at Zhang Feng and asked, "Feng Zi, you haven't answered my question yet."
"Don't worry."
Zhang Feng picked up the wine jar and poured everyone a cup of wine. Then, he picked up the wine bowl and said, "Come, let's drink first."
Although everyone was curious, the wine stimulated their taste buds. Unable to resist the temptation, they clinked their cups and downed the wine.
Seeing this, Zhang Feng put down the wine glass in satisfaction and looked at everyone with a proud face. "I can run from Chang 'an to Sheng Zhou and back. It's all thanks to my hot air balloon."
After saying that, he picked up a piece of braised meat and threw it into his mouth, gorging himself.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What is a hot air balloon?
He had never heard of it before.
Is it the thing that floated in the sky of Chang 'an last time?
Wei Zheng coughed softly and asked shamelessly, "Feng Zi, is the hot air balloon you mentioned the one that flew in the sky of Chang 'an a few days ago?"
"Yes."
Zhang Feng chewed two mouthfuls, glanced at everyone, and said proudly, "This thing is newly developed by me. It can go to the sky, no matter where it goes. Not to mention Sheng Zhou, it can even go to the Turks and back."
No one was surprised by this answer. After all, they had seen the thing in the sky with their own eyes.
But there was one thing. Could this hot air balloon float to the Turks?
Wasn't this a bit exaggerated?
After all, Sheng Zhou and the Turks were not in the same place. They should be dozens of miles away from each other. Sheng Zhou was just a border of the Tang Dynasty. How could it be as easy as Feng Zi said?
If so, why did the Tang Dynasty need to resist the Turks? Couldn't they just send a few hot air balloons there?
Therefore, Wei Zheng, who had always been strict and old-fashioned, questioned, "Feng Zi, you said that it is possible to go to Sheng Zhou. After all, many people have seen it. But isn't it a bit exaggerated to go to the Turks? You know, Sheng Zhou is still some distance away from the Turks. "
Everyone also felt that Wei Zheng's words were reasonable. They nodded and looked at Zhang Feng with confusion.
As for Zhang Feng, when he found that his boasting was questioned, he blushed and said, "What do you know? The hot air balloon I made was supposed to go to the Turks this time. But I met Xieli in Sheng Zhou and taught him a lesson. Otherwise, I would have gone to the Turks and blown up these bastards. "
"Oh …"
Li Shimin nodded and pretended to be suddenly enlightened. "Then what did you do to Xieli in the end?"
In fact, he could see that Feng Zi was boasting. But he was too lazy to expose him. Therefore, he could only change the topic.
Zhang Feng did not pay too much attention to it. The moment he heard Xieli's name, he seemed to have regained all his strength. With an excited look on his face, he said, "Let me tell you, when Cheng Chumo and I arrived at the Turkic camp, those fellows actually did not dodge or hide when they saw us. They even kept cheering on the ground as if they were celebrating something. This really made me mad …"
"Why didn't those Turks run when they saw you? Didn't they know that you were going to blow them up? "
