What caught Cheng Yaojin's eyes was a pear wood chair.
The body shape is wider than that of a chair.
The backrest and armrests are connected together to form a five-leaf screen.
The screen is carved with nine golden dragon patterns, which are lifelike and not angry but powerful.
"hiss--"
Before Cheng Yaojin could speak, he heard a gasp from behind him.
Looking back, he saw Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, standing behind him, with an extremely dignified and shocked expression on his face.
"Old Duan, are you okay? Didn't this come from your Ministry of Works?"
"Are you so surprised?" Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.
Duan Lun seemed to have not heard Cheng Yaojin's words at all.
He stared blankly at the strange chairs in front of him, especially the nine golden dragons.
Cheng Yaojin was about to speak when he saw Duan Lun reaching out his hand, as if he wanted to touch the dragon pattern on the strange chair.
"Bold, Duan Lun, do you also want to get your hands on the throne of the saint?" the eunuch next to him immediately shouted.
Duan Lun came back to his senses and was shocked all over.
"No, that's not the case. I just want to take a look at the dragon pattern on the screen!" Duan Lun quickly explained.
Even so, Duan Lun's eyes were still fixed on the nine golden dragon carvings.
"Duan Shangshu, please step down!" the eunuch and Duan Lun scolded.
This is His Majesty the Emperor's throne, and Duan Lun actually wants to touch it with his hands.
No matter what his reason is, this is not allowed.
"Old Duan, are you okay? Just take a look at it if you think it's novel. Do you dare to touch it with your hands?" Cheng Yaojin persuaded in a low voice.
He also thought the chair was novel and the carvings were beautiful.
But there’s no need to be so concerned about it, right?
"You know shit!" Duan Lun cursed for no reason.
"Look at the lines of these nine golden dragons. There are no flaws in the middle, and there are no traces of repairs. This shows that this person did the carving without any interruption from beginning to end."
"This kind of technology could not be achieved even if Lu Ban was alive!" Duan Lun and Cheng Yaojin said, their eyes full of excitement.
"Where is your majesty? Why hasn't your majesty come yet? I want to ask your majesty who is it that can do such a thing." Duan Lun asked the eunuch with an excited expression.
Cheng Yaojin even thought this paragraph was crazy!
Otherwise, why would I be so excited looking at a broken chair?
What happens on stage will naturally be seen by the ministers in the audience.
Seeing Duan Lun shouting to see His Majesty the Emperor, everyone thought something big had happened, so they left the table and ran to Duan Lun's side.
"What happened?" Li Xiaogong asked quickly.
"Duan Shangshu, what's going on?" Fang Xuanling also asked with a frown.
As Minister of Industry, Duan Lun is usually more steady than them.
It was the first time that they had seen such a fluctuating mood today.
"Your Majesty is here!" Before Duan Lun could speak, he heard the eunuch shouting loudly from outside the Tai Chi Hall.
Looking up, he saw His Majesty the Emperor walking towards the Queen with a smile on his arm.
Behind him were Prince Li Chengqian, King Li Tai of Wei, King Li Ke of Wu, Princess Li Lizhi of Changle and others.
"I will see you, Your Majesty, the Queen!" Everyone saluted Li Shimin and Queen Changsun one after another.
"What are you..." Li Shimin came over and looked at everyone standing in front of his seat, and for a moment he was a little stunned.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Duan Shangshu just stared at these nine golden dragons and lost his mind for a moment..." the eunuch explained beside him.
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I almost made a big mistake." Duan Lun and Li Shimin said.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a chair." Li Shimin waved his hand, not taking it seriously.
But he already knew in his heart that Duan Lun was surprised by the carvings on the chair.
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask Your Majesty who made this strange thing!" Duan Lun looked at Li Shimin, his expression still hard to hide his excitement.
"Just an ordinary person." Li Shimin smiled slightly.
She thought to herself that she could not let Zhao Chen know her identity.
"Your Majesty, please don't lie to me. Let's not talk about this novel thing. We have never seen it before. Even if we search all over the world, no one can carve out these nine golden dragons."
"To put it bluntly, even if Lu Ban was alive, it would be difficult for him to do this!" Duan Lun shook his head and stared at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin just felt that Zhao Chen didn't spend much effort when carving.
It seemed as simple as him helping Empress Changsun paint.
Who would have thought that Duan Lun would give such a high evaluation?
It is even said that even if Lu Ban came back to life, he would not be able to do this!
"Your Majesty, please tell me who made this thing!"
"If such a genius can be used by the Tang Dynasty, I am willing to give up my position as Minister and only be an assistant beside him!" Duan Lun said to Li Shimin again.
"hiss--"
When Fang Xuanling and others heard this, they all took a deep breath.
Looking at Duan Lun, his eyes were full of surprise.
Everyone secretly thought, what happened to Duan Lun today.
He actually said such words.
No one said anything, but they were guessing in their minds whether the so-called ordinary people mentioned by His Majesty were the same people who invented the curved shaft plow and barrel cart before.
"Father, my son and I cannot see how exquisite this carving is, but Duan Shangshu is an expert. Why don't you tell Duan Shangshu the identity of the person who carved this carving?" Prince Li Chengqian walked up to Li Shimin and said with cupped hands.
.
Li Chengqian thought this was his opportunity.
If you can take this opportunity to make good friends with Duan Lun, it will be beneficial to you.
"Your Highness, please don't speak nonsense. Your Majesty has made his own decision." Changsun Wuji was shocked by Li Chengqian's words.
Your Highness, Prince Xindao, is this crazy?
Together with the ministers of the DPRK and China, persecute His Majesty the Emperor?
Couldn't he see that His Majesty the Emperor was not willing to reveal this person's identity?
Fang Xuanling frowned and looked at Li Chengqian with a flash of disappointment in his eyes.
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
If he hadn't been prepared to reveal Zhao Chen's identity.
Otherwise, the first one to be punished would be Li Chengqian.
"Duan Shangshu, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is about to start. Your Majesty will tell you tomorrow!" Seeing that Li Shimin was silent, Empress Changsun knew that he was angry and said something to the side.
"Your Majesty, you must tell me where this person is tomorrow morning. I will burn incense and bathe early tomorrow morning and go and invite him in person!" Duan Lun said to Li Shimin with excitement in his eyes.
The ministers next to me listened with their faces twitching.
I usually see His Majesty the Emperor, but I don't see Duan Lun being so solemn.
Why did you say such words today!
"I understand, please step back!" Li Shimin waved his hand.
I know in my heart that I am the emperor, so you come to see me on weekdays without washing your hair.
Why go to see that boy Zhao Chen? You have to burn incense and bathe?
Am I not as good as that boy?
How could Duan Lun know that Li Shimin had such thoughts? Even if he knew, he would probably think so for sure.
His Majesty the Emperor cannot compare to Zhao Chen!
Duan Lun, who received Li Shimin's nod, looked back at the chair and walked towards his seat step by step.
