In the main hall, Cheng Yaojin and Zhangsun Wuji were staring at each other. Suddenly, the crisp sound of hooves came from outside.
"How is it? My nephew has arrived as promised. There's still fifteen minutes.”
Cheng Yaojin said proudly.
"It's just that he's here. The problem might not be solved. This old man wants to see what ability this Qin Huaidao has.”
Chu Suiliang snorted coldly.
He could be considered an old official of King Qin's residence, but he had never been very proud of himself. Thus, he simply hugged onto Zhangsun Wuji's thigh and was able to regain his footing here.
Cheng Yaojin looked at Chu Suiliang with disdain. No wonder he couldn't make it in the industry. Li Er was still around. What was a lackey like him doing in the limelight? Did he really think that he was an elephant just because he had a green onion sticking out of his nose?
At this moment, Li Er had already arrived at the Chengtian Gate Street outside the Ministry of War.
During the Zhenguan period, the Ministry of War and the other six departments were under the Shangshu Province. The six departments were squeezed together, and in fact, it was not spacious.
Everyone hurriedly followed, only to see Li Junxian ordering a group of soldiers of the Imperial Forest Guards to scatter a pile of weapons on the streets of Gate of Heaven Influence.
On the other hand, a snow-white horse was galloping happily on the street that was littered with all kinds of weapons under Qin Huaidao's control. It stepped on all kinds of sharp weapons along the way, but it was not affected at all.
Everyone was stunned. How did he do it?
Qin Huai wondered what method he had used to make the horse hooves withstand the damage of all kinds of sharp weapons.
Even a sharp weapon could be stepped on without being damaged, so ordinary wear and tear was naturally not a problem.
This time, even Li Er opened his mouth in surprise and hurriedly waved at Qin Huaidao.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for galloping in the Imperial City.”
Qin Huaidao jumped off his horse from afar and led the horse to Li Er's side. He cupped his hands and bowed.
"It's fine. Can my beloved minister really keep the horse's hooves from being damaged?”
Li Er curiously walked around the horse for a long time. Other than the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground, which was a little different, like iron, he did not find anything unusual. He immediately turned his gaze to Qin Huaidao.
As for the rule of getting off the horse in the Imperial City, Li Er did not take it seriously at all.
Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin, and the others surrounded him, not caring about the etiquette between monarch and minister.
One had to know that if they could solve the problem of hoofs being worn out, not only would they be able to reduce the number of warhorses that could be retired in a year, but they would also be able to use cavalry archers without any worries. With Li Jing and the others 'foresight, they naturally understood the advancement of cavalry archers. Once they were able to master it, it would definitely be a huge breakthrough.
However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out what method Qin Huaidao had used to solve the problem of the hoofs 'wear and tear.
A group of officials followed Li Er and focused their attention on Qin Huaidao.
How did this Qin family's eldest son do it?
Qin Huaidao smiled.
Being managed by Li Er and all the civil and military officials, not only did he not lose his temper, but he also became more confident.
Under the sunlight, Qin Huaidao, who was dressed in a white robe, was handsome and elegant. Even Li Er, who had always been unhappy with Qin Huaidao because his daughter had been abducted by Qin Huaidao, had to admit that Qin Huaidao was indeed an extremely attractive young man.
No one in the next generation of the Duke, including Li Er's own son, could be compared to Qin Huaidao. No wonder Li Lizhi of Little Changle had always been obsessed with Qin Huaidao.
Zhangsun Chong was nothing compared to Qin Huaidao!
Especially that confident smile, it made Li Er see himself when he was young. When had he not been so high-spirited and guided the country!
"Why don't you try it yourself, Your Majesty?"
Qin Huaidao handed the reins to Li Er.
"Good!"
Li Er laughed loudly, jumped on his horse, and began to gallop at high speed.
Having fought on the battlefield for many years, Li Er's riding skills were naturally extraordinary.
As he approached the pile of weapons, Li Er habitually hesitated.
Observing them up close, he was absolutely certain that these were all top-notch weapons, and they were truly sharpened.
If it was an ordinary horse, its horseshoes would definitely be ruined if it stepped on it.
As for the knights above, it was needless to say what happened to them.
Back then, Li Er, who was proficient in cavalry combat, had once used this method to deal with the enemy cavalry. The effect was extraordinary, but later on, because the horses and horseshoes he had seized were all useless, he had to use it carefully.
Fortunately, Qin Huaidao's previous performance had given Li Er enough confidence. Coupled with the tradition of caring about his face, Li Er waved his whip fiercely.
"Fight!"
The white horse let out a long neigh and rushed over the pile of weapons, leaving behind a mess.
This time, Li Er clearly heard the sound of metal clashing.
"Why does the collision between the horse's hooves and the weapon seem like it's made of iron? Is there something different about this horse's hooves?”
Li Er spurred his horse to run a few rounds, and he was even more certain of his judgment.
"Qin Huaidao, is this horse different from the other horses?”
Li Er jumped off his horse and asked curiously.
If the horse itself was special, then it would be meaningless.
Li Er's heart was filled with anticipation and worry.
"Your Majesty, please take a look."
Qin Huaidao raised a horse's hoof, and Li Er and the others immediately looked over curiously.
Then, there was a series of gasps.
It was actually so simple to solve the problem of the horseshoe's wear and tear!
It was just a small iron cushion under the horseshoe.
Immediately, everyone could not help but admire him. Although the hooves of horses were easy to wear out, the iron cushion would not!
Even if the iron cushion was broken, he could just replace it.
Compared to the value of the warhorse, the value of the iron cushion itself was completely negligible.
Most importantly, this thing was very simple. Any blacksmith in the army could make it. It could be said to be the perfect solution!
"I see!"
Li Er smiled bitterly. It was such a simple method, but it was the most perfect method.
Qin Huaidao was indeed capable.
Li Er had to admit defeat.
