Ang Lee had been in the south for more than a year, and now he was finally back. After returning home, the best gift he could get was his wives serving him wholeheartedly. Nothing could make Ang Lee feel more comfortable than this.
Looking at Yan Ruyu, who was wearing light purple, and Man Man, who was wearing light yellow, Li An's mood was very wonderful. At this moment, the two of them were also looking at him with sweet smiles. Their eyes were full of passion and excitement. Obviously, the two of them had been lonely for more than a year, and had long wanted to get Li An's favor.
The light yellow underwear gave people a feeling of youth and enthusiasm, while the purple underwear gave people a feeling of coquettishness. Both were very exciting colors.
"It's been more than a year, but my husband is still the same."
When Ang Lee hugged Yan Ruyu's neck and kissed her gently, Yan Ruyu said with a smile.
Ang Lee said with a smile, "Ruyu, are you talking about me? Are you still so impatient? I haven't seen you for so long, how can I not be impatient? "
After saying that, he leaned his head and kissed Man Man's earlobe, which was a fair favor.
Yan Ruyu rolled her eyes at Ang Lee and said shyly, "I didn't say that. I said that my husband is still the same, and doesn't want to neglect anyone. What's that saying again …"
After saying that, she looked at Man Man, who was snickering.
Man Man understood and smiled coquettishly. She stared at Ang Lee with coquettish eyes and curled her lips, "It's equal, hahahaha!"
After saying that, she finally couldn't help laughing.
Since they had children, Yan Ruyu and Man Man's childishness had faded by more than half, and they became more and more mature and charming. This charm was very attractive, which made Ang Lee somewhat unable to extricate himself.
"Fair share of rain and dew, good! Since you all said so, your husband can't be a coward tonight! You two lie down, raise your little butts a little. Oh, right, raise them a little higher. "
Li An trained his two wives very skillfully. Along the way to the South, Li An had not been idle. His actual combat experience was getting richer and richer, and there was not the slightest bit of unfamiliarity. As for his two wives, because they had been idle for more than a year, they seemed a little unfamiliar. Therefore, Li An still had to put in more effort to train them well. After all, any skill needed practice. Once they did not practice for a long time, they would become rusty. Naturally, the matter of the bed was no exception.
A man must know how to be tender and protective of the fairer sex. This was Li An's life principle. Especially when it came to his wife, he had to be very tender and protective.
Li An spent nearly two hours to finally make the two madams happy. Yan Ruyu, who didn't have a good physique, even fainted for a long time.
And with the consumption of the rain and dew, Ang Lee was tired and fell asleep. He slept until the next morning.
"Husband, it's time to get up. You still have to go to the palace early in the morning."
Ang Lee was sleeping soundly, but he was suddenly awakened by Yan Ruyu.
At this time, there was only Ang Lee on the bed. Man Man had long disappeared. Yan Ruyu was also dressed neatly, looking very dignified.
"My God, the sun is so high, quickly prepare the clothes."
Ang Lee knew that it was very late, estimated to be eight or nine o 'clock. Even the morning court might have already ended. No, the emperor didn't have morning court every day. Whether there was morning court today, Ang Lee was not too clear.
Yan Ruyu quickly asked Grass and others to prepare the clothes. Although Ang Lee's clothes were beside the bed, they were casual clothes. Ang Lee was going to the palace to see the emperor. Naturally, he had to dress more formally.
"Alang, someone from the palace has come. His Majesty wants to see you."
Li An had just put on his clothes when he received the news that the Emperor wanted to see him.
"Let them wait a moment. I want to eat breakfast."
Although the emperor was anxious to see him, if he didn't eat his fill, he would have no strength to answer the questions later. Therefore, breakfast had to be eaten no matter what.
Of course, before breakfast, he had to go to the toilet. If he held his stomach, it would not be good. After breakfast, he had to go again.
After busying himself for a while, an hour had passed. Only Li An had the guts to dawdle for such a long time. If it were any other minor official, as long as the Emperor said a word, they would immediately run to meet him obediently, not daring to delay for even a minute.
The eunuch in charge of delivering the message naturally knew how important Ang Lee was in the emperor's heart, so he didn't urge him. If it were an ordinary official, he would have already scolded him.
After everything was ready, Ang Lee drove to the Daming Palace. In the past, he entered the palace by horse or sedan chair. But now, the main senior officials of the Tang dynasty entered the palace by the most advanced cars. Of course, this was an area that only senior officials above the fourth or fifth level could enjoy. Low-level officials could only ride horses.
Riding a bicycle was also a good choice. In Chang 'an, there were already many people riding bicycles. However, the officials of the imperial court were not allowed to ride bicycles when they wore their official robes. After all, the official robes were too big. It was okay to ride a horse, but it was very inconvenient to ride a bicycle. Moreover, once the wide official robes were caught in the wheels, it would be a tragedy. It was a big sin to tear one's official robes in public.
Moreover, because riding a bicycle was a new thing, it didn't conform to the aesthetics of this era. Many people thought that riding a bicycle was too funny and was far less impressive than riding a horse. Therefore, when the officials wore their official robes, they were naturally not allowed to ride bicycles.
Most of the people who rode bicycles in Chang 'an of the Tang dynasty were poor people at the bottom of the society and servants in noble families. After they had a means of transportation, it became more convenient for them to go out. Because they didn't have high social status, they naturally didn't care about whether riding a bicycle was elegant or not. Moreover, their clothes didn't have too many obstructive accessories, so they were less likely to be scratched by the wheels. Therefore, they were the most suitable people to ride bicycles.
In order to improve the efficiency of servants going out to do things, many noble mansions bought a certain number of bicycles and distributed them to every servant. In this way, the running efficiency of the entire mansion could be greatly improved. Even going out to buy a side dish could save several times more time than before.
Because there were more and more people in Chang 'an, when Ang Lee entered the Vermilion Bird Avenue, he saw an endless stream of pedestrians. Some were riding horses, some were walking, some were riding carriages, some were riding bicycles, and of course, there were also playboys driving convertible cars.
"There are more pedestrians in Chang 'an than before. There are people everywhere!"
Ang Lee said to himself.
The generals and officials who came with him got up earlier than Ang Lee. They had already gone to the imperial palace, and Ang Lee was the last to arrive.
"Assistant Minister Li."
Several officials who had returned to Chang 'an together hadn't seen the Emperor yet. They were resting in a courtyard of the Daming Palace. When they saw Ang Lee coming, they hurriedly got up and greeted him.
"Hey, everyone is here!"
Ang Lee smiled and greeted everyone.
Everyone responded politely.
"Big Brother, we've been here for an hour. The earliest ones have probably been waiting for more than two hours. His Majesty hasn't summoned us. I'm afraid he's waiting for Big Brother."
Li Feiyu came over and whispered.
This was very normal. Ang Lee was the first leader in the south. If the Emperor wanted to summon these meritorious officials, he would naturally summon Ang Lee first. The other accompanying officials could only wait or be summoned in private.
"Assistant Minister Li, His Majesty summons you to the palace."
A young eunuch quietly walked over and said in a low voice.
Ang Lee responded and strode over happily.
"Your humble servant pays his respects to His Majesty. Long live His Majesty."
Ang Lee saluted the Emperor in a very old-fashioned way.
After not seeing him for more than a year, Li Longji did not change much. He still looked the same, as if there was no sign of aging. Among all the emperors of all the dynasties, there were not many who lived as long as Li Longji. Especially in the Tang dynasty, no emperor could surpass Li Longji in terms of lifespan and physical condition.
It was a good thing for the Tang Empire that the Emperor's body could be so strong, which made Ang Lee very happy.
"My dear minister, get up quickly. Hahaha!
Li Longji said very enthusiastically. He walked to Ang Lee's side, held Ang Lee's hand, and said, "You've been away for more than a year. My dear minister, you've become a lot darker!"
Ang Lee said with a smile, "The sun is strong overseas. It's all sunburn. Compared with more than a year ago, Your Majesty seems to be a lot younger."
Of course, this was a compliment. It was good enough that the Emperor was not old. How could he become younger? This violated the most basic law of development.
The Emperor was very happy to be praised. He chatted casually for a while and asked about some things he was interested in. Although the officials had already reported these things to Li Longji, he had to ask Ang Lee personally about some particularly interesting things to get a more accurate explanation from Ang Lee.
Ang Lee's personal explanations were naturally more detailed than those reported by the officials under his command. It also made it easier for Li Longji to understand or understand more comprehensively.
Especially about the huge benefits that the territories acquired overseas could bring to the Tang Empire many years later, Li Longji was a little confused because the memorials from his subordinates were always vague. However, after Ang Lee's personal explanation, Li Longji could understand the real situation very clearly.
Li Longji was naturally very excited when he learned that the territories acquired overseas would not only not bring a burden to the Tang Empire's imperial court but also could make a lot of profits many years later. These overseas territories are all located along the Silk Road on the Sea. The geographical location is extremely important. It's impossible not to make money, especially the most important canal area of the Tang Empire. As long as the canal is built, we can make money without doing anything in the future. "
"My dear minister, you're really the pillar of the Tang Empire! These overseas territories are all due to my dear minister's contributions. I don't know what reward can match my dear minister's contributions. "
Li Longji praised sincerely.
Indeed, Ang Lee's contributions to the south this time were indeed too great. It was really difficult to commend Ang Lee's great contributions with ordinary rewards.
Ang Lee hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, these are all what this humble minister should do. Besides, it's also my wish to open up the Silk Road on the Sea for the Tang Empire. So many officers and soldiers have all made contributions. Your Majesty can just reward them more. This humble minister only needs Your Majesty's full support in my research and development."
These were indeed Ang Lee's heartfelt words. For Ang Lee, nothing was more important than research and development. This was because only by developing more and better things could he better serve the development of the Tang Empire. He could also better reflect his great value and make himself an important figure in the Tang Empire forever.
Li Longji naturally knew about Ang Lee's abilities. If it weren't for Ang Lee's inventions that led to the industrial development of the Tang Empire, he wouldn't have been able to go to Luoyang several times a year, let alone go to the Pure Flowers Palace to take a bath.
Since Ang Lee asked him to fully support his research, Li Longji naturally couldn't refuse. Moreover, he was very curious about what kind of powerful machine Ang Lee was going to develop next.
"My beloved minister should have all the rewards that others have. Not a single one can be left out. This is what my beloved minister deserves. In addition, regarding the research and development of new products, I will of course fully support it. If my beloved minister needs anything, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not ignore it."
Li Longji unyieldingly expressed his support for Ang Lee. Then, he asked curiously, "My beloved minister, what kind of inventions do you plan to make this time? Can you tell me a little about them?"
People were naturally curious, and the Emperor was no exception. Moreover, he was very much looking forward to Ang Lee's research and development of even more useful things.
Ang Lee smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, this humble minister has a lot of things to develop. Some of them are improvements to existing machines. However, this humble minister doesn't have absolute confidence in some of the good things. If I tell Your Majesty and fail to create them in the end, wouldn't I have committed the crime of deceiving Your Majesty?"
It was very obvious that Ang Lee didn't have absolute confidence in some things. If he failed to develop them, he was afraid that he would disappoint Li Longji. He might even be suspected of deceiving Your Majesty.
Li Longji waved his hand and said, "It's fine, it's fine. If my beloved minister has any ideas about research and development, just tell me. Even if it doesn't succeed, I won't blame you, and I won't punish my beloved minister."
Since the Emperor said that he wouldn't blame him, Ang Lee naturally didn't have any worries. Therefore, he answered very seriously, "Your Majesty, if I want to send a decree from Daming Palace to Luoyang City, how long would it take?"
Li Longji was stunned for a moment and said faintly, "Now that there is a train, using the fastest train to transmit it, half a day is enough. Why, my beloved minister, do you want to improve the flying machine to make it fly farther and more reliable?"
