Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

"This time, I should be able to stay in Chang'an for a while longer."

Xue Rengui thought silently, he had to know the reason why he had trained the soldiers before, plus the matter of the expedition.

As a result, he didn't really spend much time in Chang'an, but he owed a lot to this passing wife.

At the same time, there are many expectations in Chang'an for the return of Uncle An Bei.

Of course, it was mainly because of the issue of An Beibo's reward. You must know that World War I shocked most of the grassland.

Among the other people who should be rewarded, there are only two people left, one is Xue Rengui, and the other is An Xuangong.

You must know that Duke Anxuan used the magic technique to destroy thousands of Turkic people at once, but it shocked the whole world.

Even though several months have passed, many people still remember this event.

"I don't know if Uncle An Bei will call Xue Guogong after he comes back this time."

"I'm afraid there may be some difficulties with the words of the Duke of the State, but the words of the Duke of the County are certain."

"People are more popular than others. It is rare to be able to occupy such a high position at the age of a weak crown."

"And don't forget, this time is due to Duke Anxuan, and His Majesty has not responded yet."

......

There were voices of discussion in Chang'an, obviously very interested in this award.

It would have been easier to confer titles before, especially after Li Shimin came to power, but many people were promoted to titles.

As for the latter, then there will be fewer, or it will be more difficult, only Xue Rengui is left.

Of course, there is also An Xuangong, but most people are used to ignoring An Xuangong.

The reason is very simple, the merits of An Xuangong are no less than anyone else, but he has never accepted the reward.

But not accepting it is one thing, but not awarding it is another thing.

Naturally, the noisy Chang'an couldn't hide it from some people, such as Shu'an from the academy, it has been five days since the start of school.

The academy is also on the right track, and the students have already adapted to life in the academy.

Of course, if they are not used to it, then there is no other way. It is impossible for them to go back, even if it is the second generation of these aristocratic families.

For the children of ordinary people, the academy is like a fairyland in the sky. They have only one task, and that is to study.

Of course, the academy doesn't need these people to adapt, if they can't adapt, they can just leave.

"If the people in Chang'an hadn't reminded me, I might have forgotten about it."

Shu An shook his head slightly and murmured, not caring about this matter at all.

Laifu on the side looked at his master with a hint of admiration on his face.

If other people said it, then there is suspicion of boasting, but my master really forgot.

"Master, I don't know what His Majesty will reward this time."

Laifu couldn't help showing a trace of expectation and said, because the last official position and title, etc., probably his master would not want it either.

Then what this majesty will reward becomes a problem.

"Probably even this emperor is not clear."

Shu An couldn't help showing a smile and said, as if thinking of the distressed appearance of this emperor.

Hearing the master's words, Lai Fu nodded, because this matter is really possible.

In fact, just as the pair of master and servant thought, Li Shimin in the court had some distress on his face at this time.

"Who leaked the news!"

The emperor seemed to be a little angry and said, which caused a lot of discussion in Chang'an.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are in the army, anyone can do it."

Li Junxian on the side smiled bitterly and said respectfully, if it is necessary to investigate, then I don't know how much effort it will take.

Fortunately, Li Shimin did not lose his mind, knowing that there is no need to investigate this matter.

"Jun Xian, what do you think should reward Yafu?"

However, Li Shimin's eyes fell on the commander of the hundred cavalry and said quietly, it seems that since the last time he followed Yafu.

Li Junxian seems to be a little biased towards Yafu, but this is not a sign.

It made Li Junxian feel a lot of crisis in his heart, and there was a lot of cold sweat behind his back, even he didn't know where he said something wrong.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask Duke An Xuan what he wants?"

Li Junxian suddenly had an idea in his haste and said, after all, instead of worrying about himself, it is better to ask An Xuangong what he needs.

"This idea seems really good."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up slightly and he murmured softly, obviously agreeing with Li Junxian's thoughts.

Chapter 442 Shipbuilding, Extending Thoughts

In the academy, Wang De, the court chief reappeared, but with a flattering smile on his face.

He didn't dare to despise the old man in front of him at all. Of course, if someone knew about it, he would only treat His Majesty or a few empresses as the chief executive.

"what do you need?"

Shu An murmured softly, with a hint of thought in his words, to be honest, he seemed to be lacking in nothing.

Of course, Li Shimin doesn't seem to be able to give what he wants, such as those electronic products of later generations.

After thinking of this, Shu An couldn't help closing his eyes, as if thinking about what else he wanted in this era.

Wang De on the side also did not dare to disturb, and Hou on the side also had a lot of envy in his eyes.

It would be great if the miscellaneous family could get such a promise from His Majesty, but unfortunately this is impossible.

"The dean must be worrying about what he wants."

Su Dashan looked at this scene from a distance, and his eyes had the same eyes as Wang De's and whispered softly.

Su Dashan has naturally heard about the things in Chang'an in the past few days. You must know that as an odd job in the academy, you still need to purchase a lot of things.

Of course, he also took the opportunity to visit his younger sister. Before these students moved into the academy, Su Xiaomei had followed them to the Princess Mansion.

Naturally, Su Dashan would not stop him. You must know that this is a great opportunity, and Su Xiaomei herself is also very upbeat.

Basically, this younger sister doesn't have to worry, and even this younger sister asked herself to buy a few more clothes and gave herself some silver taels.

He also said a lot about the Princess Mansion, Li Xiuning did not hinder the freedom of Su Xiaomei and others.

There are many people in the Detachment of Women, even if they take turns to take care of the Princess Mansion, it is estimated that it takes their turn once every ten days.

Now Su Xiaomei is mainly studying with the guards of the Detachment of Women, so she is a little nervous about the time.

"When will I be able to become a person like An Xuangong?"

Su Dashan murmured softly, since he entered the academy, many things have changed for him.

For example, the supreme majesty in his heart was talking and laughing with the dean.

It can be said that this is not a picture that Su Dashan can't imagine at all, because he never thought that there would be someone who could be on the same throne as this His Majesty.

However, the dean did it, even if Su Dashan was given his whole life, it is estimated that he would not be able to reach such a height.

Shu An didn't know Su Dashan's thoughts, but at this time Shu An opened his eyes and had a lot of thoughts.

"Tell Shimin, if you want a shipyard, as for where, it's best to be Jiangnan."

Shu An's voice sounded slowly. Originally, Shu An had the idea of ​​building a ship. As for why, it was naturally going to sea.

The small boats of this era look like naval forces, but in fact they can only sail on big rivers and cannot withstand the baptism of big waves.

Fortunately, although I am a liberal arts student, I have also studied history, and I still remember the appearance of some European warships in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Of course, there is another point that the shipbuilding technology itself is not weak in this era, but it has not yet begun to set its sights on the world.

So I didn't think about HNA at all, and this time Shu An naturally wanted to be a crab eater.

"Yes, Lord Anxuan, I will definitely convey your words to His Majesty in full."

Wang De respectfully said that what he was most afraid of was that Duke Anxuan would kick this problem back again.

At that time, he will be in a dilemma. Fortunately, An Xuangong is not like this.

Wang De quickly resigned, apparently to go back and reply to Li Shimin, while Shu An continued to fall into his thoughts.

"In this era, the ship technology is leading the world."

"But relying on ships alone cannot guarantee the safety of navigation."

"I'm afraid it will not be easy for artillery, but you can try a large crossbow."

"Wait, it's completely possible to tie the explosive package to the arrow of the bow and crossbow. In this way, it can be regarded as a long-range method."

......

Shu An's thoughts began to diverge. You must know that he had thought about putting explosives on the catapult before.

It's just that this method is too risky, because if it is not placed properly, it will be accidentally hurting yourself.

On the contrary, it would undoubtedly be much safer to use it on a bow and crossbow. As soon as Shu An thought of this, he wanted to try it immediately.

You must know that there is a gap of 400 years from the application of gunpowder to the application of cannons.

In addition, Shu'an only has one idea, so it is really not that easy to use the cannon for the time being.

But it is completely possible to use a ballista to replace the role of a cannon. Although the power will definitely be much smaller, it is completely acceptable.

"Sure enough, people are old and their brains are not working."

Shu An couldn't help sighing silently, the predecessor of the ballista was the ballista, which was used to fight against the sharp weapon of the Huns.

But it's not that easy to make, so it hasn't been applied on a large scale in this era.

The resources of the Tang Dynasty itself were insufficient, how could there be such things as ballistas, and as time went by.

In fact, the difference in riding skills between Tang people and foreign races is not that big, and naturally the ballista has been eliminated.

"I thought it would be easier this year, but I didn't expect that there are so many things to be busy."

Shu An murmured softly, and then he didn't waste any more time, but sent someone to check the situation of the crossbow machine.

Even Shu An is not very clear about whether the ballista has become a ballista in this era.

There is also the matter of shipbuilding that also requires a lot of effort, and I don't know what Li Shimin thinks.

......

On the other side, after Wang De returned to the court, he began to report to His Majesty what Duke An Xuan had said.

Of course, Wang De naturally did not hide anything, he said all the words that An Xuangong said, and he didn't even let go of his demeanor before and after.

"Shipbuilding?! What's Yafu's plan?"

Li Shimin frowned slightly and murmured softly, because he didn't understand why Yafu wanted to build the ship at all.

"Your Majesty, does An Xuangong not want Tang to spend too much money?"

Wang De said cautiously on the side, we must know that the Tang Dynasty is stable now, although there are many similar shipyards, they are all left by Emperor Sui Yang.

And it was for making dragon boats. In fact, it didn't help Datang too much.

"maybe."

Li Shimin murmured softly, but he didn't believe that this Yafu would let go so easily.

You must know that many shipyards have been abandoned, and there are not many remaining, but they are not worth much.

But Yafu didn't say what the purpose was, it was to make this emperor have a lot of entanglements.

He wasn't worried about what this Asian father would do to hurt Datang, but he always felt itchy in his heart and wanted to know his purpose.

Chapter 443 Jinyuan Cuju, Horrified

"Now Shimin should be very puzzled."

In the academy, Shu An guessed the emperor in the court and thought silently.
