"Father! Imperial Father?"
Li You was shocked and quickly bowed."Yang Jie greets father."
" No need to be so polite." Li Shimin's mind was obviously not on this." Follow me to Taiji Palace and show me your horseshoes."”
"Yes, your son will obey." Li You said bitterly.”
Along the way, Li You felt a little uneasy.
Horseshoes and whatnot were just something he said casually. To be honest, he had never seen a real horse in his previous life. If there was anything wrong with the horseshoes and an accident happened, he would really be in trouble.
While his imagination ran wild, Li You followed Li Shimin to Taiji Palace.
In Taiji Palace, Li Shimin sent someone to grind the ink and spread the Xuan paper in front of Li You.
"Let's begin, Your Highness."
Cheng Yaojin watched excitedly from the side. Li You thought hard for a while and recalled what the horseshoe looked like in his memory.
Although Li You had never come into contact with horses and horseshoes before, and even if he had seen them in any pictures, his impression of them would be vague. However, with the amazing effect of his photographic memory, Li You recalled the appearance of horseshoes he had seen in the past, and it was actually detailed!
Every detail was vivid in his mind. Li You suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the brush.
"What kind of posture is this?”
Li Shimin frowned when he saw Li You's irregular grip on the pen, but that was not the main point. He focused on Li You drawing a U-shaped object with great effort.
After he finished drawing, Li You wiped his sweat and thought to himself,""Damn it, this writing brush is too taxing. In the future, I must think of a way to make a charcoal pen or something for my own use.”
"This is a horseshoe?"
Li Shiming and Cheng Yaojin gathered around, deep in thought.
Obviously, they were using their own experience to measure the actual effect of horseshoes.
As it turned out, the horseshoe was indeed a great invention that had been relied on since ancient times. Their eyes quickly lit up!
"Sure, Your Majesty!" Cheng Yaojin said excitedly," This horseshoe will definitely be of great help to the army!”
He patted Li You happily.”
Li You almost fell to the ground from the slap. He laughed bitterly and thought to himself," You call me " Your Highness " and " this kid ". Do you want to call me respectfully or contemptuously?"
"General, please use less strength. This king's body can't withstand a few more slaps from you.”
Cheng Yaojin laughed out loud." Your Highness, you'll have to train more. However, Your Highness has done the Ministry of War such a great favor. Although we're all boorish, we'll definitely remember you!"”
Li You felt a chill run down his spine when he heard that. F * ck, why did the words of gratitude sound like he was going to remember me for revenge?
"Cough cough!"
Li Shiming couldn't stand it anymore. He coughed and reminded Cheng Yaojin to be careful.
Although Cheng Yaojin had followed Li Shiming through the Xuanwu Gate incident, Li You was his son, and he was the emperor. He was too rude.
Cheng Yaojin also realized this and immediately restrained his expression.
Li Shi Min nodded,"Yang Jie's idea is great!" However, it is still impossible to clearly understand the mystery of it just by relying on brush painting. How about this, I will get the Ministry of Works to fully cooperate with you. You go to the Ministry of Works and get this thing out.”
"Ah?"
Li You was stunned. He had just wanted to be a leisurely second generation emperor, but he was immediately thrown out of work?
"Ah what?" Li Shimin's face turned stiff." You are the King of Chu. You should have gone to your fief a long time ago, but you are still staying in Chang 'an. I didn't even say anything to you, and now you're not willing to do such a small thing?”
"Yes…father." Li You's face fell.”
Li Shimin said seriously," It's good that you know. We won't wait for anyone then. Go and start work immediately."”
Seeing Li You walk out of Taiji Palace in a daze, Li Shi Min's expression relaxed.
"I didn't expect Yang Jie to be able to help me so much. Could it be that I was wrong about him?”
Cheng Yaojin said," Although His Majesty is equally fond of all the princes, anyone with a discerning eye can see that His Majesty clearly favors His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Yue. Perhaps that is why he has neglected His Royal Highness the King of Chu?"”
Crown Prince Li Chengqian and King of Yue Li Tai were both born from Empress Zhangsun, so Li Shimin treated them differently.
"Shut up!"
Li Shiming glared at Cheng Yaojin. Only someone as carefree as Cheng Yaojin would dare to talk about the royal family in front of the emperor so bluntly.
However, Li Shi Min also rubbed his chin and thought to himself,"Is that really the case? It was so obvious that even a boorish person like Yizhen could tell? Should I pay more attention to this in the future…"
Thinking of this, Li Shi Min beckoned for the chamberlain.
"Eunuch Zhao, get someone to change the distribution of rewards for the Crown Prince and the King of Yue. Take out 8000 strings of money and give it to the King of Chu. The remaining 6000 strings of money will be given to the Crown Prince and the King of Yue respectively.”
Cheng Yaojin's eyes almost popped out when he saw that Chamberlain Zhao had accepted the order.
Was the world about to change?
The King of Chu actually received more rewards than the Crown Prince and the King of Yue, whom the Emperor had always doted on!
……
After leaving Taiji Palace, Li You suddenly felt even more worried.
"I'm so angry. What kind of transmigrator is like me? I've been worried since I transmigrated!”
Li You shook his head. At this moment, the system notification rang.
"Congratulations, Master, for obtaining the recognition of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin. You will be rewarded with a 2-star lottery draw!”
"2-star lottery?" Li You was stunned." Is there a star rating for the lottery?”
"Yes, Master. The highest rating for the lottery is 5 stars.”
Li You nodded and said,"Alright, let's draw it then."”
It was the first time in his life that he would be able to draw a lottery from the system. He was a little excited just thinking about it!
The system quickly turned into a wheel. After a flash of light, a new notification appeared.
"Congratulations, Master, for drawing a 2-star item: 'How Steel Was Tempered!'"
"Puff!"
Li You almost spat out a mouthful of blood. F * ck you, System! What the hell is this 2-star item?
What's the use of giving me a foreign masterpiece in the Tang Dynasty?
"And why is a book that can be bought for 20 to 30 yuan in a roadside bookstore a 2-star item here!”
