Then I heard a gasp, followed by incredible looks from both pairs of people.
"This...this...this..." Fang Xuanling said this for a long time, but did not hear another word from him.
"Who made this painting? It is so vivid. At a glance, it seems as if Her Majesty the Queen is standing here." Li Xiaogong looked at the words in front of him, his eyes full of shock.
"I have never seen anyone with such superb painting skills. Not even Yan Liben can do this."
"This person's painting skills are so high that if we look at the past thousand years, we can't find another one."
The ministers in the court spoke one after another.
No one is trying to flatter Li Shimin.
With such a masterpiece, do you still need their flattery?
"Your Majesty, who did this? The Queen seems to be walking out of the painting." Wei Zheng stood closest and had the clearest view.
He was now completely impressed by this painting.
All I want to know in my heart is who is it that has such painting skills.
"My ministers, please don't be impatient. Let's take a look at this again." Li Shimin had a smile on his face and waved to the eunuch next to him without tongue.
"besides?"
Everyone was inexplicably shocked.
Besides this painting, is there anything else?
And from the tone of His Majesty the Emperor, could it be that what follows, like this painting, was created by one person?
This is too...
All the ministers held their breaths and waited for the eunuch Wu Tongue's movements.
Then they saw the eunuch Wu Ji holding a set of words in his hand, slowly unfolding it for everyone to see.
When all the ministers looked over, they saw the words "The bamboo stick and mango shoes are easier than the horse. Who is afraid? You will live your whole life in the mist and rain."
This word...
Everyone's eyes were shocked.
At first glance, they realized that this calligraphy was so exquisite.
"There is such exquisite calligraphy in the world. Even Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan can't compare to it."
"Even the Sage of Calligraphy can't compete with him."
"Your Majesty, who is it that has such talent?" Wei Zheng looked at Li Shimin, his voice trembling slightly.
"The paintings, this calligraphy, and the secret method of deodorizing pork are all from one person." Li Shimin said with a smile on his face to the ministers who were looking at him with bright eyes.
"one person?"
"If it is really one person, I had already guessed that this was the case when His Majesty showed us the painting."
"I have guessed it before, but I don't know who he is, and he has such ability."
There was another commotion in the court hall.
Everyone looked at Li Shimin with eyes full of curiosity.
"I have said before that this person is a disciple of the Immortal." Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, were the carts and plows made by this same person?" Fang Xuanling immediately remembered the magical things that he and others had seen before.
If all these things were taught by the disciples of the Immortal Family that Your Majesty said, then this person would be too terrifying.
When Fang Xuanling asked this question, everyone present immediately became stunned.
"No." Li Shimin shook his head.
He couldn't let the ministers know that all the things they had seen in the past few days were created by Zhao Chen alone.
Otherwise, this matter would be a big deal.
It will not be a good thing for Zhao Chen at that time.
It's not time to reveal Zhao Chen's identity yet.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, Wei Zheng, supports your Majesty's plan to raise pigs." Wei Zheng suddenly raised his hand towards Li Shimin and said.
Only then did everyone react.
Their biggest thing today is the implementation of the pig-raising plan.
"I believe that raising pigs is of great benefit to the present and future generations, and should be implemented immediately."
"Pork is so delicious. If it can be promoted, it will be a blessing for the Tang Dynasty."
All the ministers spoke one after another.
Today's court meeting was an eye-opener for them.
Li Shimin was very satisfied with the reaction of the ministers.
He thought to himself that if he hadn't frightened these old guys several times, he would have beaten them to death today.
"According to my decree, from now on, we will set up a royal pig room to specialize in raising pigs."
"The Imperial Boar House is assigned to the Household Department. There are ten lanes in the world, and each lane has an Imperial Household official, all under the leadership of the Household Department."
"Let me tell the people all over the world that raising pigs is, firstly, for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, secondly for border wars, and thirdly for the people to fill their stomachs."
"Li Xiaogong, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, also serves as the imperial envoy."
Li Shimin returned to his throne and announced to the ministers.
Li Xiaogong was appointed as the royal envoy because he was a member of the Tang royal family.
He is also the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and he is also clear about financial investment.
is the best candidate.
Li Shimin hoped that raising pigs could change the current predicament of the Tang Dynasty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely work hard for my pig-raising project in the Tang Dynasty." Li Xiaogong's face showed excitement.
They were the first to raise pigs in the imperial court. As the royal pig envoy, Li Xiaogong would definitely leave his name in history in the future.
The others also looked at Li Xiaogong with envy.
I thought that Li Xiaogong had gotten a big deal.
After the court meeting dispersed, Wei Zheng stayed in the palace and did not leave immediately.
After Li Shimin left, he immediately chased after him.
"Your Majesty, stay here." Wei Zheng called Li Shimin from a distance.
"What's the matter, Doctor Wei?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng with some surprise, thinking that this old man wouldn't want to cause trouble with him again.
"Your Majesty, I was rude earlier and I am guilty. However, I want to see the descendant of the immortal that Your Majesty mentioned."
"Your Majesty, if you have the opportunity, please let me meet you." Wei Zheng bowed his hands deeply to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was just thinking that he should go to Zhao Chen's tavern today, but he didn't expect that Wei Zheng also said that he would go with him.
Li Shimin originally wanted to turn it down.
But think about it, if Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng can meet first and get to know each other first, if Zhao Chen returns to the court in the future, this old man will not be so opposed to it.
Nodding, Li Shimin said: "You can go and see him, but you must not tell anyone else about this matter, otherwise I will definitely chop off your head."
"Also, the immortal disciples don't know my identity, so you can't reveal your identity. I am a businessman from Shu, and you are the housekeeper of my hometown. Do you understand?"
Li Shimin explained seriously.
"I obey, thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately and said.
Outside, it is indeed better not to reveal your identity casually.
Wei Zheng thought to himself.
…
After the courtiers dispersed, the two of them changed into civilian clothes, left the palace and went to Pingkangfang.
"Remember, never reveal your identity." When approaching the tavern, Li Shimin warned again.
Wei Zheng had never seen His Majesty the Emperor telling him so many times before, and he couldn't help but become more and more curious about what this immortal disciple looked like.
He nodded and followed Li Shimin forward.
"Boy Zhao, I'm here to eat again today." Li Shimin stood outside the tavern and shouted inside.
Wei Zheng immediately twitched his face, thinking that if he hadn't promised not to reveal his identity, he would have pointed at Li Shimin's nose and scolded him at this moment.
The majestic emperor actually shouted in the street, where is the image of the emperor?
"Old Li Tou, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Zhao Chen walked out of the backyard and said with a smile.
Wei Zheng looked up and immediately said: "Wocao!"
