I'm a marquis in Datang

Du Qi said: "The construction of the road from Chang'an to Lantian County is in full swing. However, some roads have been built in many places. Especially the first section from Chang'an to Lantian County has been completely repaired for more than one kilometer. distance."

"This section of the road is finished."

"The decree of entering the palace from a humble position is to invite His Majesty to come and take a look at the road."

"I can assure you that this is the first such a perfect and solid road in the world. This kind of road is even stronger and more durable than the road paved with stone slabs in the palace city. In the future, for a long time to come, this There will be no problems with the roads."

Du Qi thought for a while and said, "At least for ten years, there will be no problems."

In fact, ten years is an underestimation.

There are no cars in this era, unlike the roads of later generations, because the cars are overloaded and the roads bear too much weight, causing problems on the roads.This era is nothing more than carriages and horses stampede.

Such a bearing force, not to mention ten years, even if it is 20 or 30 years, the road wear will be extremely weak.

Li Yuan was even more surprised when he heard Du Qi's words, because he noticed Du Qi's ten-year conclusion.

Ten years will be fine.

This is quite non-trivial.

Li Yuandao: "Erlang, you are sure that the newly built road will be fine within ten years."

Du Qidao: "There will never be a problem."

Li Yuan nodded, and said: "Since you are so sure, I will go and have a look at the road that has been built. This time, I will bring all the civil and military officials from the court, and then let the East Palace, Prince Qin's Mansion and others participate. Erlang, All civil and military officials in the court will go, are you sure the road is really okay?"

There was a problem with the road, and Du Qi was ashamed.

Even after the courtiers saw this, because the road was extremely critical, Li Yuan had to deal with Du Qi.

So Li Yuan had these words.

Du Qi said to himself: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, there will be no problems in this road."

"That's good!"

Li Yuan stopped talking, and said: "Go back and prepare. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the Chinese and Chinese military officials to go out of the city to inspect the first section of the road from Chang'an to Lantian County."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Du Qi responded and said: "Your Majesty, I will go back and prepare."

"Go!"

Li Yuan waved his hand.

After Du Qi left, Li Yuan looked at Xiao Li and ordered: "Xiao Li, make arrangements. Before tomorrow morning at si o'clock, all the officials of the court, Chinese and military will gather outside the east city, and follow me to see the completed construction." the way."

"Yes!"

Xiao Li responded immediately and went to inform the people in the palace.

Chapter 533

full of surprise

The next day, early in the morning.

Early in the morning.

All the princes of the Manchu Dynasty gathered at the gate of the east gate of Chang'an City.

Each of them became a small circle, and they discussed among themselves.At the front are Pei Ji, Chen Shuda, Xiao Yu and others, these are the most core courtiers in Li Yuan's era.As for Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others, they are on the other side.The rest, such as Li Shentong, Li Xiaogong, and many courtiers, formed their own circles

Everyone was talking.

talking about today's things.

When Li Yuan asked Xiao Li to pass the letter, he also said that the purpose of today was to go to the scene to see the results of Du Qi's road construction.There was a lot of talk about the road construction, but the road was closed, and officials from the DPRK and China never took care of it, so no one knew the final result of the road construction, after all, they hadn't visited it in person.

Among the discussions among the crowd, some people thought that Du Qi was trying to catch the public's attention, deliberately attracting people's attention.

Some people think that Du Qi has real materials.

Du Qi is really doing things.

At this time, Du Qi's carriage arrived at the gate of the city.He got out of the carriage and strode over.Du Qi did not go to the area where Li Shimin was, but nodded to Li Shimin from a distance, then walked to the side and stood alone.

No one approached.

No one paid attention to Du Qi.

After all, the officials in the court are mainly divided into two factions.

The first is the people from the East Palace.

The second is the people of King Qin.

A few are neutral.

The problem is that although Du Qi is well-known and praised by many people, from the beginning to the end, Du Qi has never been an official in the court, has no influence in the court, and has never participated in any government affairs.

So he doesn't know people.

Du Qi was also happy to be quiet, he closed his eyes slightly to rest his mind.

Li Shimin saw Du Qi alone and wanted to walk over, but was held back by Changsun Wuji.After Changsun Wuji gave a look, Li Shimin also understood that his relationship with Du Qi should not be publicized, so Li Shimin did not go over.

Time passed little by little.

It's getting closer and closer.

At this time, the sun is already shining brightly. After all, the weather in May is not too hot, and the weather is quite refreshing. The weather is neither cold nor hot, which is very good.

"Roll! Roll!"

At this moment, there was another sound of wheels turning.

But it was the carriage that Li Yuan was riding in. The carriage stopped and the door curtain was raised, but Li Yuan was seen walking down from the carriage.

After standing still, Li Yuan swept around.

His eyes fell on Du Qi.

Li Yuan saw that Du Qi was standing alone, while the people around him were gathered in groups, chatting with each other.

While talking, Du Qi was alone, but Li Yuan sighed for no reason.
