On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 210 Asking for Craftsmanship
Stepping on the afterglow of the setting sun, Cui Che waved goodbye to Li Jing after his shift.

When Cui Che returned to the mansion, he quickly sent his entourage to invite an official who had nothing to do with him to come to the mansion.

At first, He Chou, the servant of Sanqi, thought he had heard wrong.

The imperial son-in-law, the Duke of Yan, Cui Che, Minister of the Ministry of War, unexpectedly knew that there was such a number one person in this world as him!
"It was my Patriarch who invited me. He Yuanwai, the Patriarch is waiting in the mansion. Please come with me."

Follow Wang De to urge.

He Chou didn't make things difficult for Cui Che's entourage, but he still took a few servants along with him.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped outside the gate of Yan State Mansion that He Chou believed that Cui Che really invited him.

The servants were waiting outside the mansion, He Chou followed Wang De into the mansion, went around and around, and finally came to Cui Che's reception room.

After entering the door, I heard Cui Che laughing and saying:
"I haven't eaten yet, I have already prepared the food and wine in advance."

It seems that He Chou and He Chou have been old friends for many years.

When they met for the first time, He Chou didn't dare to be careless. He bowed and said:
"He Chou pays homage to Duke Yan."

"No need to be polite, please sit down."

Cui Che lifted his right hand slightly, and then instructed Wang De:

"The honored guest has arrived, let the kitchen know that it's time to serve food."

Wang De took the order and left.

He Chou was puzzled and said:
"I don't know why Duke Yan called me here today?"

Cui Che didn't play tricks, he said straight from his heart:

"I heard that Yuanwai He had an ingenious idea and created a new blowing method. Cui called you today to ask you what the blowing method is all about."

He Chou suddenly realized that Cui Che was here to make glass.

As early as the opening of the Silk Road in the Western Han Dynasty, glassware and the method of making glass had been spread to China by the merchants of the Da Yuezhi, but it was only in the Sui Dynasty that the ancient method had been lost for a long time.

It wasn't until He Chou, after in-depth research on the techniques of firing pottery and glass, invented a new glass firing method, which is the blowing method.

Because of this, He Chou was promoted from the seventh-rank Taifu Cheng to the fifth-rank Yuanwai Sanqi servant.

It can be said that it has been promoted to three levels in a row, which also shows Yang Jian's satisfaction with the blowing method and the importance he attaches to firing glass.

Therefore, He Chou didn't dare to agree for a while, because he was afraid that Cui Che would start producing glass and compete with the court for profit.

Cui Che seemed to see through He Chou's worry, he smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Mr. He, I'm asking for advice on how to blow it. It's just that the princess loves those exquisite utensils and made them for her. I will never sell them outside and implicate you."

He Chou believed what Cui Che said, so he no longer concealed it, and told all the tricks of the blowing method.

After drinking and eating, He Chou was personally sent out of the Yan State Mansion by Cui Che.

After seeing off the guests, Cui Che handed over all the materials needed for making the glass to Wang Debei, and that night, he fired the glass according to Professor He Chou's method.

After many failures, Cui Che finally made the concave-convex lens after a few days.

Cui Che first made three pairs of myopia glasses with different lens thicknesses for his aunt. He didn't know Cui Zhaorong's specific prescription, so he would have to let his aunt try them on one by one.

In addition, I made a simple telescope by myself, intending to store it carefully, and only take it with me when I go out to lead the army, and no one is allowed to borrow it.

Cui Che has already passed the stage of offering gifts and asking for rewards.

He Chou offered the blowing method and was able to advance three levels in a row. Even if Cui Che offered the binoculars, Yang Jian would not let him sit on the aspect at his age, so he might as well keep it for himself.

When Cui Che put on his glasses to look for Cui Zhaorong, Yang Lihua was in her room asking for advice on acupuncture.

This idea was also brought up by Cui Che, anyway, she has to prick her with fine needles every day, so it's better to learn acupuncture.

Looking at the rare thing in front of her, Yang Lihua said curiously:
"What is this?"

"It's called glasses."

As Cui Che said, he handed all three pairs of glasses to Cui Zhaorong, and said:
"Auntie can try them on one by one, and she will be able to see things clearly."

Cui Zhaorong was skeptical, and tried the thinnest pair first. Although it was still a bit blurry, it was much clearer than before.

She was overjoyed, and hurriedly changed into a pair that was neither thin nor thick. After putting it on, her nephew's appearance in front of her eyes had never been clearer than before.

"This thing is so amazing!"

When Yang Lihua heard the words, she also took a pair, but it was the thickest one.

As soon as I put it on, I felt dizzy, so I quickly took it off again.

Cui Zhaorong questioned the reason, but Cui Che didn't know how to explain it, so he made a few vague and perfunctory sentences.

He also warned her not to wear glasses and go out in the sun.

Cui Zhaorong was puzzled, and Cui Che explained:
"If it is exposed to the sun, there may be a danger of bursting."

Cui Zhaorong nodded, keeping Cui Che's advice in mind.

In the tenth year of Emperor Kaihuang (590 A.D.), in the first ten days of May, just over a month after the end of the dispute between the market and the store, Li Delin finally lost his position in the internal history.

But he didn't take the initiative to resign, but after the relationship between the monarch and his ministers with Yang Jian was completely broken, he was released as the governor.

In February last year, Su Wei submitted a form, requesting that every [-] households be townships, and appoint a township official to manage the affairs of the township and hear lawsuits.

At that time, Li Delin, who had always been at odds with Su Wei's political views, firmly opposed it. He believed that judging matters by the village would hinder the villagers and make it difficult to guarantee fairness.

It's just that Yang Jian didn't listen to the advice, and ordered that [-] households be the township, and a township head should be appointed, and [-] households should be the village, and the village chief should be set up to govern the township and the village.

This policy was tried out for a year, and there were many complaints from the people, so Yang Jian sent Yu Qingze and others to inspect the Kanto.

A few days ago, I got a report, and everyone said:

'When township officials deal with lawsuits, they often follow their own likes and dislikes, favor those close to them, bend the law for personal gain, and often take bribes. '

Yang Jian planned to abolish this policy. It stands to reason that if you know your mistakes, you can correct them, and there is nothing good about it.

But Li Delin stood up and said:
"Last year, the minister opposed the establishment of township regulations, but since it has been implemented, it cannot be abolished easily, otherwise the government orders will be inconsistent, and it will be destroyed every day, which completely violates the fundamental meaning of the emperor's legal system.

"Therefore, I request Your Majesty to announce to the world that from now on, if all officials and ministers change the laws and regulations at will, they will act according to military law.

"If you don't do this, there will be changes in the day and night in the future, and there will be endless disturbances."

Yang Jian completely broke his defenses. If you want to say which ruler in history was the most troublesome, before Yang Guang, it must be Wang Mang.

And Li Delin actually wanted Yang Jian to issue an edict clearly, which clearly meant that he, the saint Khan, was regarded as Wang Mang.

Yang Jian's face suddenly changed, he scolded Li Delin angrily:
"As an internal history order, you are in charge of secrets. The reason why I have not allowed you to participate in the decision-making of the government recently is that you cannot act in an aboveboard manner!

"You made up lies to swindle the store, your father was originally the school secretary, but you lied that he had served as a counselor in the Taiwei's mansion and joined the army, which absurdly promoted your father's official position.

"In fact, I have been resentful towards you for a long time, but it hasn't exploded yet. You go to Huaizhou (Governing Hanoi County, now Qinyang, Henan) and become a governor. Don't go back to Daxing again!"

Yang Jian gasped heavily, his chest heaving violently.

It was also the first time Cui Che saw Yang Jian get so angry, not to mention that he and Li Delin were just fellow Boling fellows and had no other friendship.

Even if they are close friends, they have to keep their mouths shut at this time.

Both Yang Jian and Yang Guang have the same temperament, and they can't listen to harsh words.

Anyone who doesn't go according to their wishes will be alienated at least, just like Li Delin today.

If it is serious, he will be given death, just like Wang Yi back then.

　It should be gone today, there are only two chapters. Let me rethink the follow-up Jiangnan counter-insurgency, and there will be four chapters tomorrow.
