"Ba"
In Ganquan Hall, Li Shimin broke the tea cup on his table severely.
The hot tea splashed everywhere, and bursts of heat came out.
Several eunuchs who were responsible for serving were immediately startled and knelt on the ground.
I was so nervous.
No one knows why His Majesty the Emperor suddenly gets so angry when he leaves the palace?
Who messed with him again?
"It is said that Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Xiaogong, and Li Jing entered the palace." Li Shimin said coldly.
The eunuch immediately got up and hurriedly sent an order to go out.
"What's wrong with Your Majesty?" Empress Changsun looked at the little eunuch and ran out in panic and walked into Ganquan Hall.
"Get back!" Li Shimin waved to the eunuch who served, and a smile appeared on his face.
"It's so late, why don't Guanyin maid go to rest? You're not healed yet, so you should pay more attention." Li Shimin walked over and pulled Empress Changsun to sit down.
"I heard from the people below that His Majesty looked angry when he came back, but what happened?"
"Or is that boy Zhao Chen angry with His Majesty again?" Queen Changsun explained.
She originally wanted to rest.
I didn't go to Zhao Chen's place today because I felt a little tired.
But before he could lie down, he heard his subordinates say that the emperor had just returned to the palace, and his face was full of anger.
It seems extremely annoying.
Empress Changsun immediately lost her sleepiness, fearing that Zhao Chen would irritate the emperor again.
"Guanyin maid, you really care about that boy Zhao Chen." Li Shimin curled his lips and muttered.
He naturally knew that Zhao Chen was deliberately stimulating the shopkeepers to say such words.
In order to revenge on his own affairs that he left his words.
This kid is so stingy.
However, he didn't care about this.
What Li Shimin cared about was that those shopkeepers actually felt arrogantly that Zhao Chen was right.
He even used the Xuanwu Gate Incident and the Turkic Going South to frequently stimulate Li Shimin's heart.
"That boy Zhao Chen is not a good thing. I just obeyed his few books, so he would be angry with me."
"If it weren't for his good work, I would have to break his leg." Li Shimin hummed angrily.
Empress Changsun smiled and knew that the emperor was not so angry because of Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be talking like this.
But that was the case, which made her even more curious about what happened and made the emperor so angry.
"Why is Your Majesty..."
"It's those aristocratic families..." Li Shimin frowned and slowly told Queen Changsun what had just happened in the tavern.
"That boy Zhao Chen did it on purpose. I will scold him for Your Majesty tomorrow!" After hearing this, Empress Changsun immediately assured the emperor.
She was also shocked by Zhao Chen's words.
Isn’t this understanding that it was deliberately provoking the shopkeepers of those aristocratic families to say such ruthless words?
And it was said in front of the emperor.
This idea is unsuccessful.
"It's not his fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have known that those aristocratic families actually viewed me like this."
"Xuanwu Gate! On the banks of the Weishui River, what a family, what a half-wall of the Tang Dynasty!"
"I understand, I understand everything!"
Li Shimin had a smile on his face, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Empress Changsun didn't speak.
Although I knew very early that those aristocratic families were arrogant and didn't expect that they could even say such words.
Although the shopkeeper below said this, it also reflected from the side the attitude of those aristocratic families towards the emperor.
"Your Majesty hasn't eaten yet, I'm going to prepare." Empress Changsun and Li Shimin said.
"I'm not hungry, I'll come back later. By the way, I'll show you something good!" Li Shimin waved his hand and thought of the paper he took back from Zhao Chen.
Take it out of your arms and spread it flat on the table.
"Look at Guanyin maid, this is the paper made by that boy Zhao Chen." Li Shimin and Empress Changsun said, and finally a hint of joy appeared on their faces.
Queen Changsun was stunned for a moment, then she was filled with a deep sense of surprise.
A piece of yellow paper was lifted in his hand, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, is this really something Zhao Chen made?" Empress Changsun asked.
"Yes." Li Shimin nodded.
He also sighed in his heart that Zhao Chen actually developed movable type printing and papermaking techniques in just one day.
Although the quality of this paper is not as good as rice paper, it is made of some rotten hemp.
The cost is not high.
If such paper could be popular in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, who would not be able to read and study?
"Zhao Chenke said, how did this be done?"
"In one day, he completed what he said yesterday, which is so amazing." Empress Changsun asked Li Shimin a little excited.
For a long time, printing did not exist.
Woodblock printing technology that was later found.
Woodblock printing solves the problem of book printing, but it consumes manpower and material resources.
This is not the same level as the movable type printing technique developed by Zhao Chen.
Furthermore, the paper made by Zhao Chen only uses some rotten hemp and straw as raw materials.
The cost is countless times less.
Even ordinary people can afford books and paper.
These two inventions were definitely an epoch-making invention for the Tang Dynasty.
Empress Changsun really wanted to know how Zhao Chen did this.
"The shopkeepers of those families came too quickly. Before I could ask, they came in." Li Shimin shook his head.
He wanted to ask, who knew that those people went to the tavern again today.
Let him hold back all his words.
After that, I was even more annoyed and didn't have the intention to ask Zhao Chen about this.
"By the way, Zhao Chen said he would go to the East and West Market to sell chili peppers on the day. If you are bored in the palace, you can go and have a look."
"I'm afraid I'll be busy these days and can't have too much time to spend with you." Li Shimin and Empress Changsun said.
"Your Majesty wants to touch those families..."
Li Shimin did not answer and waved to Empress Changsun, "Guanyin maid, go back and rest first, the auxiliary machine and the others are coming."
Empress Changsun knew that the emperor was unwilling to tell her about this, so she nodded, "I will sue you first, and your Majesty will take a break soon."
Li Shimin nodded.
"Empress!"
Empress Changsun had just walked a few steps when she met Changsun Wuji and others at the door.
