I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

According to the normal name, the word "county" has to be added.

The word "gong" is used alone, and it has a somewhat obedient meaning.Like Wei Zheng, Li Shimin would sometimes call him Xuan Chenggong.

Not only because of Wei Zheng's status as Duke Zheng, but also because of his respect for Wei Zheng.

These people omitted the word "county" to fully express their respect for Yin Xuan.

Those foreign merchants didn't understand this kind of emotion. They stood at the end of the crowd and bowed to Yin Xuan half a step late, but when they lowered their heads nonchalantly, the group in front had already lifted their bodies.

"This kid is really popular." Li Yuan felt a little emotional, and looked at Yin Xuan with complicated eyes.

This scene was actually not unfamiliar to him.

He has also seen such a young man at this age who is admired and cheered by all.

Of course, that young man was not himself, but his son, the current emperor of Tang Dynasty—Li Shimin.When Li Shimin rescued the Sui Emperor at Yanmenguan, he was also in such high spirits.

Wei Zheng smiled and waved his hands: "If you have both talents and virtues, how can you not be respected?"

"It's just that the changes he brought are so great that I feel a little uneasy."

As he spoke, he took a sip of his drink.

With electric lights, the curfew was on the agenda. Most people still maintained a conservative attitude towards the opening of the curfew. They felt that Huaizhen Square could not be said to be the same for the entire imperial capital.

Wei Zheng is one of the conservatives.

However, there are many people who support the liberalization of the curfew, and Cheng Yaojin bears the brunt—the civil servants are all surprised that a military officer dared to scold Wei Zheng on this matter.

If Wei Zheng hadn't hid behind the pillar, it would have been very likely that Cheng Yaojin would have pulled Wei Zheng up and beaten him.

In the end, it was agreed that street lights should be built in two squares near Huaizhenfang, Chongde and Chongye, Datongfang, and Pingkangfang in Chang'an County, and then the curfew would be opened for pilot inspection.

It is said that it is necessary to repair street lights, but the first thing to do is the power plant.

The birth of a thing and the application of a thing are two different things.There are even things that are much more difficult to apply than to be born.

Laying the circuit was much more troublesome than Li Shimin thought.

It is not enough to connect the wires.

He sort of understood why Yin Xuan said that his generator could only take care of the power consumption of several nearby neighbors at most.The loss is simply too great.

After five miles, the light bulb became dim and dim.

Li Shimin was a little disappointed at first. If it was just like this, he had to get a small generator every five miles, and the loss and cost would be much higher. It would be better to use oil lamps.

He asked Yin Xuan for advice.

Yin Xuan said that there is a way to solve this, and the cost will not be very high.

Li Lizhi and Li Shu next to him were eager to try, rubbing their hands and preparing to put the solution on the agenda.But Li Shimin didn't do that. He gritted his teeth and went back to hand over the task to the Ministry of Industry and the general supervisor.

The two daughters have been thrown out, so we can't rely on them, can we?

The imperial court supported the Ministry of Industry, the generals and supervisors, and even the Ministry of Households approved two extra funds at the beginning of this year.

What's more, Yin Xuan has left this matter to the court, and Li Shimin feels that he can't afford to lose this person if he wants to continue to ask Yin Xuan for advice.

The Ministry of Industry and the general supervisor have some headaches.

They haven't even fully learned the principles of generators yet, and they have to study these things. It is indeed a bit difficult, but they have to do it.

Now the chief officer of the Ministry of Industry and the general supervisor almost regards Tongfu Restaurant as their home.

He stays here so shamelessly that he can figure out the principle of the generator as soon as possible—at least one step faster than the other department.

Fortunately, the principle of power generation is not very difficult. In more than half a month, they figured out the general idea.

The Ministry of Industry had Li Tai to help them, but in the end they were still one step ahead.

The method used for wire transportation is high-voltage transportation.

The power plant opened outside Chang'an City, and wooden poles were erected. Datang's steel output is still too low, and cement and steel bars still seem a bit extravagant.

Of course, these are just in preparation, the stakes have been erected, and the laying of wires will take a long time.

Prince's Mansion.

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and stared at the message in his hand, his face became more and more gloomy: "My brother Qingque, what do you mean?"

What was written above was related to Li Tai.

In the past few years, Li Tai has been very active. Officials from the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and even some officials from the Ministry of Rites have been very close to Li Tai.

In addition, Li Tai has lost a lot of weight in the past few years. Although he is still a fat man, he only weighs [-] to [-] catties. Compared with the previous nearly [-] catties, he is already much slimmer.

The little round face is not very handsome, but it looks very happy.

This made Li Chengqian, the prince, very worried.

"It is said... that many people in the court want to support His Royal Highness King Wei." The official who presented the memorial said softly. He didn't say what he supported, but it goes without saying.

Li Chengqian clenched his fists: "How dare he!"

"Although he doesn't have full status, many people in the court think that Duke Zhengyang is the teacher of His Royal Highness King Wei." The official shook his head and said softly.

Duke Zhengyang.

This name touched Li Chengqian's heart, and immediately a burst of anger surged out.

Obviously...I treat him so well, obviously I have degraded myself so much, even now he is married to his sister.

But Yin Xuan still has an attitude of avoiding himself.

why?
Could it be that he is so much worse than Li Tai?

Subconsciously, Li Chengqian took a look at his lame leg, and his heart sank. Could this be the reason?
As a physically disabled person, he is more or less sensitive in his heart. He does not have the emotion of normal people, that if he is not liked, he will not be liked. Instead, he will think, is it because he looks down on himself when he doesn't like him?
The more doubtful he is, the more certain he is.

"Qing Que has stayed in Chang'an for too long." Li Chengqian sighed, "Father pampered him a little too much, how can the prince be such an unworthy official."

The official nodded and gave a nod.

He naturally understood what Li Chengqian meant. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, he would naturally participate in a book in the court tomorrow to apply for Li Tai, an unstable person, to be transferred from Chang'an.

The wind and rain will stop, and it seems to be noisy again.

Zhou Xiaosan has a lot of leisure these days, and he has time to come to Tongfu Restaurant during the day.

The matter of the electric light got out.

Although the magazine explained it many times, and the readers took the time to say that there were no gods and ghosts, those foreign merchants didn't believe it.
