Datang: It's a showdown, my son-in-law is going to rebel!

Chapter 77

"Say it again, what do you want?"

Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Ke in disbelief.

The request Li Ke just made made him a little confused. He had no idea what was going on.

This is not right!
Want leather?
What do you want for something like cowhide?

This thing can't be eaten, even if it is made into leather armor, it is not very useful. This thing is too thin, and its protection is not as good as pigskin.

What does Li Ke want cowhide for?

Cheng Yaojin didn't want to understand what Li Ke meant.

"Lu Guogong, I heard that your family has a lot of cowhide. This request is not very difficult for you, right?"

Li Ke looked at Cheng Yaojin, and said with a smile: "I only want cowhide, and nothing else. What do you think?"

"Row!"

Cheng Yaojin nodded, and then gave the cowhide to Li Ke. In fact, these things are really not difficult for him.

Li Ke bought a bunch of cowhide for free from Cheng Yaojin's mansion, went straight back to the Shu Palace, and then started making it. Naturally, a child like him would not be allowed to make this huge Kongming Lantern alone.

He called all the servants of the Shu Palace over to make Kongming lanterns together.

Bamboo strips, silk threads, and various things all need to be customized. After all, this is a Kongming lantern that has never appeared before. Li Ke has gone through various precise calculations every step of the way. He sewed up the cowhide and covered it with bamboo. Bamboo woven Kongming lanterns, and then directly sewed all these things up with needles and threads.

Finally, there is the charcoal basin, which is the most important thing. It is not an ordinary charcoal basin, but a charcoal basin designed by Li Ke himself, a charcoal basin with a bellows, and finally a bamboo basket made of bamboo. , using bamboo baskets to drive people to heaven, this is Li Ke's final design.

He worked on this kind of thing for a long time, and dispatched the people of the entire palace to make this Kongming lantern.

Of course, these people didn't know exactly how Li Ke intended to make such a large sky lantern.

Soon Li Ke finished this thing, buckled a rope at the bottom of the bamboo basket, and then started to light the sky lantern, and then watched the bamboo strips start to slowly upwards with a force, and then let the A person sat in the bamboo basket, and soon the Kongming Lantern flew into the sky, carrying the bamboo basket directly into the sky, and the person in the bamboo basket also followed the bamboo stick to the sky.

Soon the rope was stretched straight, Li Ke looked at this scene, nodded immediately, and then shouted to the above: "Turn off the fire!"

When the people above heard it, they immediately turned off the lights, and then the Kongming Lantern slowly descended again.

It worked!
After Li Ke saw this scene, he nodded immediately, all this is right, the sky lantern he made is no problem!
This lamp can definitely take people to the sky, but now we need to study carefully how to operate this thing. If it really flies freely by relying on the wind, then this Kongming lantern will have no practical use.

If the wind direction is not right, it still has no effect.

Everyone is not Kong Ming, who can know where the wind is blowing?

If you keep following the wind, it will have no effect at all.

So we must figure out how to control this wind, so that we can make better use of this thing.

Li Ke was not satisfied because the Kongming Lantern successfully carried people into the sky.

On the contrary, this inspired his idea of ​​wanting to practice, and soon he drove away all the people, and then started to study this thing here alone.

"Your Highness, you can't play this by yourself! If you fall and hurt yourself, we can't get rid of it."

When a guard left, he gave Li Ke a word of advice.

"Don't talk so much nonsense, I'm not out of my mind, how could I do such a dangerous thing?"

Li Ke asked back, and then said: "I want to think about something alone now. You are an eyesore here. I want to be quiet!"

Soon all the people were driven away by Li Ke. Without saying a word, Li Ke directly put the charcoal fire on the side into the hanging basket, and then untied the rope at the bottom of the hanging basket.

Jump into the gondola, then fire and go straight to the sky.

If you want to study this thing, you must practice it yourself.

If you don't even have this courage, how can you practice all this.

All these things are unknown to outsiders.

But the guard did not leave. After seeing what Li Ke did, he was shocked and rushed into the yard, and then witnessed the whole process of Li Ke's ascension to heaven.

But after all, it was a step too late, Li Ke had already gone to the sky, and there was no way for him to stop Li Ke.

At this moment, he panicked, and immediately ran to the palace, but at this time, Chang'an City has imposed a curfew, and he is a guard, without privileges, so he has no way to report this matter quickly, so he can only walk slowly The process is over.

By the time the process was over, the sky had brightened.

When he saw Li Shimin, Li Shimin had already slept, woke up, and was preparing to go to court.

"what?"

After hearing the guard's report, Li Shimin was stunned: "You said Ke'er went to heaven? What do you mean?"

So the guard explained to Li Shimin what Li Ke had done.

Li Shimin was completely dumbfounded.

what?
Li Ke made a very large sky lantern, and then rode on the sky lantern, went to the sky?

This Nima is funny, right?

But at this time, Li Shimin suddenly thought of Zhuge Liang, he knew a lot, and he had heard about the incident between Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

After Li Ke became the king of Shu, he quickly studied a lot of things about the Shu Han. Among the Shu Han, Zhuge Liang's pen and ink were very strong. Li Shimin also knew about this.

"The story about Zhuge Liang escaping Sima Yi on a sky lantern is a lie! What the hell is he trying to do!"

Li Shimin didn't know what to say: "What's the matter with this child! If the paper sky lantern disintegrates in the sky, wouldn't Ke'er's bones remain?"

"Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Shu uses cowhide instead of paper sky lanterns."

The guard told Li Shimin about the materials.

"Cowhide?"

After Li Shimin heard this, he immediately said: "How much cowhide does it take to make a sky lantern? Did this bastard kill the cattle privately?"

"I heard that they came from Duke Lu's mansion."

"Cheng Zhijie?"

After Li Shimin heard this, he immediately said: "Jun Xian, call Cheng Zhijie here! Today's court meeting will be cancelled, so why should everyone go!"

What happened to his son, how could Li Shimin have any leisure to hold a court meeting?
