Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 103 Dissolving in the invisible

Chapter [-] Dissolving Invisibly

Cheng Chusi had no choice but to explain at length that the boots are not worn by humans, but iron plates that have the same shape as a horseshoe, and are stapled to the horseshoe.
He couldn't explain clearly to Cheng Yaojin, so he could only ask the guards to bring the horses that had been bound with iron plates, and let Cheng Yaojin watch it in person.

Cheng Yaojin rode on the horse himself, went for a lap on the street and came back, only then did he believe that it was feasible, so he scratched his head anxiously.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were at a loss, and he and Yuchi Gongniu Jinda had just linked up with all the generals, preparing to attack the civil officials tomorrow.
This time I was determined to show them some color, but I didn't want to, the matter that had troubled everyone for a long time, was dissolved into nothing by a small piece of iron from Li Dalang,

He couldn't hold his breath, so he asked someone to bring a bag of iron plates, rode a horse with boots on, and hurried towards the palace.

Cheng Chusi knew his own Aye's temperament, so he didn't stop him, anyway, there was no need to worry about him making trouble, so let him go.

Li Shimin had already had dinner in the bedroom of the eldest grandson Wugou, and the two were talking about Prince Li Chengqian's studies and whether there was anything wrong with Zhang Jin.

Li Shimin was very happy these few days, and it was rare to be relaxed. The matter of Li Yu making the horse boots was explained clearly by Li Dai himself in the palace the next day.
On the third day, when Wu Changfeng got off work, he secretly took two of them, and Bai Qisi delivered them to Li Shimin's desk.

Li Shimin had known for a long time that the generals could no longer contain their excitement and were about to make another big fuss, but he couldn't think of a solution.

Fortunately, under the leadership of Changsun Wugou, the harem has already donated tens of thousands of guan, and I will take some money from the small treasury to ask Changsun Wuji to let go, and increase the 20 guan that the household department is going to concede to 30 guan.
Even if he put everything together, he could barely cope with it, so Li Shimin reasoned that he was unwell and hadn't had a court meeting for three days.

Just wait for Changsun Wuji to let go, and if there is enough money here, a storm can be resolved.

Who knows, someone actually came up with a strange method to completely resolve this difficulty.

The man from Li County in Lantian County had a whimsical idea to put boots on the horses, and installed some horses with the iron plates he made.

According to Baiqisi's secret report, Cheng Yaojin's eldest son has already tried riding a horse, and it is indeed feasible, and he himself has seen the iron piece.

Today, Dalang of the Cheng family has returned to Chang'an City with the booted horse and two carts of iron pieces and handed them over to his father Cheng Yaojin.

Li Shimin is very clear about these things, now he doesn't have to worry about civil and military explosions, he doesn't even need to spend a single coin, and saves hundreds of thousands, can he not be happy?

Not only will it save this year, but it will no longer worry about changing the horses every year next year.

How could this not make Li Shimin happy?So in the past two days, Li Shimin was full of spring breeze, accompanying his eldest grandson Wugou every day, caring about the growth of the children, and doing homework.

It is also a rare harmony for the silver taels donated in the harem to be recovered after being lost.

He was talking with his eldest grandson Wugou when he heard the sound of a gong playing from outside;
"Your Majesty, what a great thing, Your Majesty, Old Cheng is here!"

Li Shimin knew what Cheng Yaojin was doing, so he happily looked at the servant beside him, Qian Dehai, and said relaxedly;
"Duke Xuanlu come in."

"No, Duke Xuanlu sees you~"

I saw Cheng Yaojin come in quickly again, and after saluting, he shouted loudly;

"Your Majesty, there is a great event, and I have to come."

"Oh, what's good about Aiqing? Let's talk about it in detail."

Cheng Yaojin said with a serious expression;
"Reporting to Your Majesty, there has been an uproar in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty recently about the replacement of war horses..."

Li Shimin thought to himself, it's not that you idiots are the most troublesome!Provoking a group of generals and forcing the civil servants to fly like dogs, they still have the face to speak out.

Just listen to Cheng Yaojin continue to say;
"I am also very concerned about this matter. I am worried that your Majesty will hurt your body, so I have been thinking hard about a good solution. I want to relieve your majesty's worries. Finally, I came up with a method. This method can relieve the urgent need."

The elder grandson Wugou next to him couldn't stand it any longer, Li Shimin told about the horse boots yesterday, the elder grandson Wugou naturally knew what Cheng Yaojin was going to say.

Looking at Cheng Yaojin's claim that the thing made by Li Xiannan is a method he thought of, he still thought hard about it.

The eldest grandson Wugou was afraid that it would be inappropriate for him to laugh out loud for a while, and besides, when Li Shimin was dealing with government affairs, the eldest grandson always avoided him.

Empress Changsun wants to avoid it;

"Your Majesty, now that Duke Lu is here to discuss important matters, I suddenly remembered that I have not seen Concubine Yang and my sister for many days. Since Your Majesty and Lu Guo have something to talk about, I will leave."

Li Shimin said softly;

"Guanyin's servant girl will go on her own."

Here, Changsun Wugou greeted Cheng Yaojin again, and then led everyone away, Cheng Yaojin also bent down and shouted;

"Your Highness, but please do yourself a favor."

Li Shimin was in a happy mood these days, so he teased Qi Cheng Yaojin;
"Oh, I have always known that Zhijie is loyal, but I don't know, what clever plan did Zhijie come up with recently to solve the problem of changing horses?
Could it be that Zhijie wants to move out the warehouse in the mansion to buy war horses? "

Cheng Yaojin would not be fooled, he took the family's money and gave it to the court as soon as his brain got hot, so he hurriedly explained;

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. The method I came up with can solve the problem of the replacement of war horses without spending the court's money."

"What idea did Ai Qing think of? She didn't need to spend any money to solve this problem. The horses have to be replaced every year. This has been the case in all dynasties. Isn't it necessary this year?"

Cheng Yaojin saw that the emperor's appetite was whetted, so he said directly:

"The minister is in the mansion, and because of His Majesty's important affairs, he has no taste for food, sleeps and eats, and suddenly thinks that this man is wearing boots, why not put boots on the horse, if you put boots on the horse, you don't have to worry about the horse's hooves being worn out?

So I thought of a way to make something and put it on the horse's hoof, just like putting boots on the horse, so I no longer afraid of the horse's hoof being worn out. "

Qian Dehai next to him, hearing Cheng Yaojin describe other people's works as his own ideas, and what he said so seriously, his face turned red and he didn't dare to laugh out loud.

He just lowered his head, hid the expression on his face, and secretly took his right hand and pinched his thigh fiercely to divert his attention.

How did Cheng Yaojin know that Li Dai had already reported the matter in detail, and Qian Dehai was also listening to it.

Since he didn't know, of course Cheng Yaojin continued bragging brazenly and didn't make drafts;

"I have ordered the blacksmith to build the things I thought of, and installed them on the horse's hoof.
I also know that this method is too novel, I'm afraid His Majesty won't believe it, so I brought the horse and a bunch of other things into the palace, and ask Your Majesty to move outside the palace so that you can see it at a glance. "

Now that Cheng Yaojin said this, Li Shimin can only cooperate;
"Oh, since Aiqing has brought the horse here, let's go out and see what it is like."

Everyone went to the outside of the bedroom together, and sure enough a servant was pulling a horse and standing in the yard, but it was already dark and couldn't see clearly, but it was vaguely visible, and there was a package beside the horse.
