The Legacy of the First Auxiliary House of the Tang Dynasty

Fang Yiai entered the Lizheng Hall, the prince did not expect Fang Yiai's complexion to be so dull today, as if nothing had happened between them.

Because Fang Yiai had always been awkward facing him before, pretending to be calm on the surface, but whenever Li Chengqian looked at him, she could see something different in the other's eyes.

After Fang Yiai saluted, she went back to normal and reported some work content. During this period, Yu Zhining repeatedly mentioned the matter of recommending Fang Yiai for an official position. .

But beyond Li Chengqian's expectation, Fang Yiai actually agreed to Yu Zhining's proposal, as long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not object, the East Palace can press for this matter.

Fang Yiai came to the East Palace, and there are still some things, that is, Li Laodao has made new inventions.

They are all kinds of "scientific ideas" provided to Li Chufen in that proposal. Not to mention the fact that the dynamite pack has already become a thing. effectiveness.

Fang Yiai came here just to explain this, and there are simpler inventions, such as "canned food" and "instant noodles" such as military supplies, which were made by Fang Yiai and a few cooks from the Food Bureau. finished product.

After hearing this, Li Chengqian ordered someone to call the Dianshan Bureau to take the semi-finished product "developed" by Fang Yiai.

It's just that the taste is not very good.

"But it's already a rare delicacy during the march."

You can see the smell of meat in a stroke, and being late to warm up food during the march will definitely shock the soldiers. It is also convenient for marching and fighting, saving time and food items to carry.

Li Chengqian could see at a glance that although these things were inconspicuous, they could play a great role, but Fang Yiai did things so proactively, as if he wanted some credit, which was not like his previous behavior.

Or maybe, the former Fang Yiai never wanted to do her best in the East Palace...

Seeing Li Chengqian's expression, Fang Yiai's heart changed slightly, and she roughly guessed the mood of His Royal Highness.

He seemed to be loyal to Tai Biao inadvertently, and when he said something like "prosperity and prosperity", Li Chengqian had a smile on his face when he heard it, but there was some inquiry and doubt in his eyes looking at Fang Yiai.

Fang Yiai naturally knew why the other party was like this, but he was very calm, the prince was right. After all, he had been temperamental and treated the prince hot and cold all the time, and it was because of the incident on the couch in the house last time...the two of them therefore Getting along is a bit different.

Fang Yiai just got up this morning and was a little bit overjoyed. The prince is beautiful, and he himself is also very powerful. If it wasn't because he couldn't let go, whoever overthrew it would be a matter of opinion.

Fang Yiai laughed.

In winter, the stove in the house is smoky, and the twilight sunlight shines in through the window paper. The light in the room is bright and dark, and Fang Yiai's face is bright on one side, and heavily shadowed on the other side. It is so dark that his cheeks cannot be seen clearly. expression.

This made Fang Yi'ai seem mysterious, Li Chengqian looked up and saw this scene, he was momentarily stunned.

But it might as well have heard Fang Yiai suddenly ask him at this moment: "Is Bai Chaofeng yours?"

Li Chengqian's expression suddenly dawned on him, Fang Yiai had already got the answer from such a hesitation.

He was right in his judgment.

Li Chengqian saw the slightly sarcastic smile on the corner of the other party's mouth, felt a little embarrassed and apologetic, and wanted to explain a few words, but Fang Yiai changed the subject and talked about something else.

……

******

After discussing in the East Palace, His Royal Highness naturally sent Fang Yiai's invention and contributions to Taiji Palace, and it was Yu Zhining who first proposed Fang Yiai as the East Palace's Shao Zhanshi.

Li Shimin read the brochures of the prince and the prince Zhan Shi, both of which mentioned Fang Yiai's ability, the corner of his mouth twitched, he turned his head and said something to Fang Xuanling with a smile.

"—Fang's Erlang is really my thousand-mile horse."

Fang Xuanling didn't know, so when the emperor showed him all the booklets, he knew that his Erlang started messing with things again.

Fang Xuanling wanted to say a few words of humility, but the emperor didn't give him this opportunity, and then he praised Fang Yiai with others. Seeing that the emperor was happy with Fang Xuanling's husband-in-law, everyone kept talking and praising Fang Xuanling for a while. .

Fang Xuanling, the father, is not yet in full bloom, but Li Shimin is very happy, after all, he is his half son, and a son-in-law is a half-son.

Just thinking of the son-in-law, naturally he thought of his daughter--Princess Gaoyang.

Li Shimin's smile faded for a while, and he gradually became less happy.

The officials below are all good at observing words and expressions, and the room fell silent for a while.

This silence is particularly prominent.

There was even a feeling of silence at this time.

The emperor dispersed the others, and after a while, he announced the decree for the prince and Fang Yiai to have an audience.

There is also a hidden secret from the prince, which is a "secret" report with Fang Yiai, which is not convenient for public discussion.

Originally, Li Shimin wanted to keep Fang Xuanling, but Fang Xuanling, as Zhongshuling, had too many things to deal with today, so the emperor let him go first, but Changsun Wuji and Zhu Suiliang and others are still here.

The military officer's side, Li Jing's health is not good, and he has been working hard for the Eastern Expedition, and he is already exhausted, so Li Shimin easily refused to summon him.

Although Li Ji's side was getting old and spent most of their time at home, Li Shimin's side also asked someone to call him over, but the little eunuch didn't leave for long, and the emperor asked someone to replace him, so don't bother for now.

Li Shimin still doesn't know what the prince and Fang Yiai's secrets are, so let's listen first.

The prince came over with Fang Yiai, and Fang Yiai himself was carrying a weapon, but he took it off before entering the Ganlu Hall, and came in clean and bowed.

After the end, the emperor asked about it, and first described the contents of the notebook, which was true, and there was a finished product for the emperor to inspect. Li Shimin was very happy after hearing this.

Even Changsun Wuji and Zhu Suiliang, who listened with their ears pricked up, had to say that Fang Yiai's thoughts were ingenious, whether it was the disinfection of strong wine, the effect of debridement after the experiment by the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, or the canned food and instant noodles, It can make Datang's military power to a higher level.

Not to mention the match that Fang Yiai invented a long time ago.

This match is temporarily used as a secret weapon. The emperor did not allow it to be produced and sold on a large scale. Later, it was confiscated and produced in a limited range for military supplies in preparation for the Eastern Expedition.

The Goguryeo spies in Chang'an City were even cleared to prevent the circulation and dissemination of some things.

Li Shimin is very cautious, he will never allow the Eastern Expedition to fail.

In view of the lessons learned from the failure of the former Sui Eastern Expedition, Li Shimin was worried and had insomnia for many days.

Only the eunuchs next to the emperor knew about this matter, and even the prince could only tell from Li Shimin's tired face, which made the emperor drink strong tea vigorously.

This time, what Fang Yiai presented was the serial crossbow, the trump card of the Song army.

Although the explosive package is effective, it is limited by the conditions at this time, and there are no cannons and firearms.The battle between the two armies is more of a battle of cold weapons, and the status of cavalry, bows and arrows is very important.

Not only serial crossbows, but also bed crossbows, cart crossbows, etc...

Fang Yiai also suggested setting up crossbowmen, "We need 'Crossbowmen', 'Crownmen', and 'Cowletmen'. The three cooperate and cooperate to be able to quickly launch crossbowmen over a large area..."

Fang Yiai details.

He was tall and straight, calm, and the emperor, Changsun Wuji and others could feel the murderous aura from his expression when he spoke.

From his words and the blueprints he brought, he imagined the mighty power of the newly made crossbow.

Li Shimin laughed heartily after hearing this, he stood up excitedly, and asked, "Is it possible to make it?"

Fang Yiai responded, saying that she was outside.

The emperor ordered someone to bring up the "weapon" that Fang Yiai carried. After Li Shimin tried it, his eyes lit up, and when he turned his head to look at Fang Yiai, he was even more loving, wishing that this was his son.

Of course, the son-in-law is not bad either.

It's just that after Changsun Wuji and Zhu Suiliang retreated, Li Shimin pretended that Fang Yiai had more important secrets to report alone, and while waiting for surprises, he heard Fang Yiai say something, which made him burst into anger.

"... What did you say? Heli—" Li Shimin's eyes widened, obviously not acceptable.

This time Fang Yiai knelt down, kowtowed and said: "I would like to exchange this trivial contribution for Your Majesty's innocence."

... This is blackmail!Li Shimin couldn't accept it, so he stood up and walked back and forth.

But this is not the first time that Fang Yiai has asked for it. Li Shimin walked around for a long time, asked the prince to help Fang Yiai, and persuaded: "I have already reprimanded Gao Yang, and let her live with you. Gao Yang also knew that he was wrong. , can't you break the mirror and reunite?"

Li Shimin spoke kindly. Among the many sons-in-law, Fang Yiai now seems to be the most talented, and he is of great use to the state. Li Shimin doesn't want to give up, let alone allow royal scandals to appear.

He beat and beat repeatedly, soft and hard, and talked a lot, but Fang Yiai was determined not to compromise.

Li Chengqian didn't expect Fang Yiai to mention this at this time, and Fang Yiai didn't hide it from him when he talked about the serial crossbow before coming here.

Li Chengqian didn't expect Fang Yiai to be so urgent, but he didn't object, instead he stood by Fang Yiai's side. On the surface, he followed the emperor's persuasion, but in fact he dug countless holes inside and outside, which caused Gao Yang's fault.

Li Shimin sighed and almost burst into tears, but Fang Yiai was determined not to soften his heart.

The emperor is good at acting, does he really love his daughter so much?

Fang Yiai doesn't believe it.

Just protest silently.

"Saint, my beloved knows the whole story of the Golden Pillow case... Please also allow the minister and the princess to reconcile and separate, and each is safe. From now on, marriage between a man and a woman has nothing to do with each other."

So Gao Yang does what she likes, don't get involved with his Fang Yiai.

As for revenge, Fang Yiai has plenty of opportunities, but first of all, he must reconcile, and the dirty water on Gao Yang's body cannot be allowed to touch him and Fang's family.

This is what Fang Yiai cares about. He doesn't want Aye, who should have passed away this year, to be pissed off by Gao Yang just after he recovers, and the family will be disturbed and have no peace...

Li Shimin was blocked by Fang Yiai's words, he stared at the prince, thinking that it was Li Chengqian who told him the secret of Fang Yiai's golden pillow case.

At this time, Li Chengqian was expressionless, making the emperor unable to see anything.

Li Shimin just vented his anger, and after a while he figured it out.

It's just that he really couldn't bear Fang Yiai's talent.

The designs of these various crossbow arrows simply spanned dynasties. If they had existed for a long time, he would not have signed an alliance with them during the Turkic siege earlier.

"Dongzheng... If you make great achievements, I will grant your request." Youyou sighed, Li Shimin finally flung his sleeves and walked away.
