Chapter 459 Li Er Gives High Hopes to the Royal Academy

Early the next morning, Yu Chihuan went to the morning court as usual.

When he arrived at the gate of Zhuque Gate of Taiji Palace, Yu Chihuan suddenly found that Medicine King Sun Simiao had already been waiting outside the palace.

Sun Simiao was still wearing a brown Taoist robe.

The robe looked like it hadn't been washed for a long time.

However, all the civil and military officials who came in and out of Zhuque Gate did not dislike Medicine King Sun Simiao.

When Yuchi's carriage arrived outside Suzaku's gate, Sun Simiao immediately ran over.

Yuchihuan thought that Sun Simiao asked him for the globe again, so he jumped off the carriage and ran away.

"Young Prime Minister Yuchi, Pindao wants to say goodbye to you today!"

Medicine King Sun Simiao stared at Yuchi Huan who was fleeing and was speechless.

Yu Chihuan learned that Sun Simiao didn't want to ask him for the globe, so he immediately turned around and came back to Sun Simiao!

"Sun Simiao, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Yu Chihuan curiously asked the medicine king Sun Simiao.

Medicine King Sun Simiao sighed and said: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, Pindao is already able to make compasses and Yunnan Baiyao on his own. There is no point in staying in Chang'an City any longer!"

Yu Chihuan nodded and said yes: "Sun Simiao, seeing that we have met, I will give you ten pieces of corn to satisfy your hunger!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Chihuan took out ten pieces of corn from the system space and handed them to Medicine King Sun Simiao.

Medicine King Sun Simiao took Huang Chengcheng's corn and said with a smile on his face, "Little Chancellor Yuchi rewarded him, but the poor are so disrespectful."

Sun Simiao was worried that Yu Chihuan would regret it, so he immediately hid ten corns in his Taoist robe.

Yu Chihuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Sun Simiao, you don't need to hide the corn in your arms, I won't snatch you, hahaha!"

Sun Simiao disagreed: "Little Chancellor Yuchi, I must prepare for the worst when I face you, hehe!"

Yuchihuan was too lazy to argue with Sun Simiao. He immediately waved and said: "Sun Simiao, I'm going to the morning court. You go slowly!"

Sun Simiao smiled at Yuchi Huan and said, "Prime Minister Yuchi, the poor will come to you soon hehe!"

After saying that, Sun Simiao stepped on the carriage next to him and left the Zhuque Gate of Tai Chi Palace.

Yu Chihuan watched Sun Simiao leave the Zhuque Gate before going to the Xuanzheng Hall to attend court.

When we arrived at Xuanzheng Hall, all civil and military officials had already arrived.

Accompanied by Wang Gonggong, Li Er then stepped into the Xuanzheng Hall to go to court.

All the civil and military officials paid homage to Li Erdao in unison: "My ministers see Your Majesty!"

"You Aiqings are flat!"

Li Er sat on the dragon chair with a golden knife.

"The minister obeys the order!"

All civil and military officials immediately straightened their bodies together.

The prince held the Buddha's dust in his hand and said: "If there is something to play, if there is nothing to retreat to the court!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Gonggong returned to Li Er's back.

Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, was the first to go out and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

When all the civil and military officials saw Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, come out, they immediately kept a close eye on Li Jing. They were worried that there would be another war on the border of the Tang Dynasty!
Yuchihuan also thought that Li Jing was reporting on the border war, so he was a little nervous.

Li Er looked down at Li Jing from a high position and said, "Li Jing, what do you want to tell me?"

Li Jing smiled and said: "Your Majesty, last night the Ministry of War received a letter from Zhongzhou Navy General Liu Rengui, saying that his Zhongzhou Navy's five-yad ship has arrived at the island of guano!"

"Did Liu Rengui reach the island of guano so soon?"

Yuchi Huan was a little surprised!
After all, it was Liu Rengui's first voyage to the sea. According to Yuchihuan's estimate, it may take Liu Rengui a month to reach the island of guano!
But since it took Liu Rengui half a month to reach the island of guano, this is enough to show that his sailing skills are excellent.

Civilian and military generals like Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, and Cheng Yaojin are also full of curiosity about the island of guano.

Li Jing instantly became the most eye-catching person in Xuanzheng Hall.

Li Erlong Yan Dayue said: "Li Jing, did Liu Rengui find any bird droppings on the island of bird droppings?"

Li Jing said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, Liu Rengui said that there are indeed many seabirds on the island. They have seen mountains of guano solidified on the Guano Island!"

Li Er nodded in satisfaction and said, "Sure enough, Liu Rengui did not disappoint me!"

Li Jing remonstrated: "Your Majesty, when Liu Rengui returns to Beijing with the bird droppings, you can reward him with acres of land!"

Li Er agreed: "Li Jing, I have accepted your suggestion!"

Liu Rengui is now a general of the Tang Dynasty, and he can be regarded as a general of the Tang Dynasty!

If Liu Rengui is promoted again, he will be a general of the third rank!
It only took Liu Rengui three years to be promoted from captain to lieutenant, which is a bit fast!
The civil and military officials will definitely not agree.

So Li Er felt that it would be enough to reward Liu Rengui with property.

After Li Jing finished his report, he immediately returned to his original position.

Li Er asked again: "My dear friends, if you have something to report, please leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

Yan Lide, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Li Er frowned and said, "Yan Lide, what are you going to do today?"

Yan Lide raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the large water tank made by the supervisor of the Ministry of Industry is too large to carry, and I want to move the water tank manufacturing workshop away from Chang'an City!"

Li Er suddenly realized: "Yesterday, I ordered the supervisor to build a water tank to help the common people collect rainwater, and I will do it!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission!"

Yan Lide secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Yan Lide, if you have nothing to do, then step back!"

Li Er waved his hand with a smile on his face.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Yan Lide didn't dare to neglect, and immediately returned to the team of officials from the Ministry of Industry.

Yuchi Huan originally thought that today's morning meeting had nothing to do with him, but he was wrong.

Then Li Er stared at Yuchi Huan and said with a smile on his face: "Little Yuchi, you reported the progress of my Royal Academy last night. I am very satisfied with the efficiency of the Royal Academy!"

Yuchi Huan raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the Royal Academy will be opened in half a month!"

Li Erlong said happily: "Little Yuchi, I will personally go to the Royal Academy to host the opening ceremony when the time comes!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great support to the Royal Academy!"

Yu Chihuan was very much looking forward to Li Er's arrival.

Li Er stood behind the Royal Academy. From now on, those aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty would not dare to interfere with the development of the Royal Academy.

Li Er waved his hand and said: "Xiao Yuchi, if you have nothing to do, you can step back!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Yuchi Huan immediately returned to the Zhongshu Province team.

Li Er then discussed the state affairs and people's livelihood of the Tang Dynasty with Liu Zhenghui, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, and Fang Xuanling, the minister's left servant.

An hour later, Li Er announced his resignation.

All civil and military officials filed out and left the Xuanzheng Hall in an orderly manner.

Yu Chihuan also returned to Zhongshu Province with his elder Sun Shunde and the others to be on duty.

There were many things discussed by the imperial court this morning, but the most important thing was Zhongzhou Navy Master Zhonglang who brought Liu Rengui to the island of guano!

Yu Chihuan is also very much looking forward to Liu Rengui's triumphant return.

In the morning of that day, the supervisor of the Ministry of Works was ordered to move the workshop for making large water tanks to the upper reaches of the Wei River.

This also made Yan Liben, the master craftsman, a lot easier.

However, the workshop for making ordinary water tanks is still kept in Jiangzuojian.

In addition to being responsible for the production of astronomical telescopes, Wu Meiniang is also responsible for the production of royal customized water tanks.

At present, Li Er has arranged water tanks for dozens of concubines and princes and daughters!

These water tanks are all completed by the supervisor!

Wu Meiniang was too busy working as a prisoner.
