Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Li Shimin laughed.

Then he took people into Chu Palace.

After entering Chu Palace, it was indeed much cooler.

After entering the basement, it became extremely stuffy.

"His Majesty."

Not far away, you can see Empress Changsun.

"Guanyin servant girl, you are here too."

Li Shimin walked up with a smile.

Empress Changsun said with a smile: "Xiao Sizi ordered someone to pass the word to the concubine, saying that there is a place for fun in the Chu Palace, and the concubine can come and play with her when she is free."

"As soon as the concubine finished listening, she put down many things at hand and came here."

heard this.

Li Shimin nodded, this is the same reason as he came.

The two walked together, followed by many palace people.

"Father, mother, hee hee, you are all here! My son wants to be hugged!!"

Xiao Sizi had been waiting for Li Shimin and his wife at the door a long time ago, and when he saw them arriving, he hurried over.

Behind her is her older sister, Princess Changle.

Li Shimin was not surprised. Since the assassination, he asked Chang Le to stay with her sister as much as possible to avoid any mistakes.

"Bang!!"

The little boy jumped directly into Li Shimin's arms, under the impact of extreme speed, even Li Shimin retreated a few steps before catching the little guy.

"Oiyo~ Little Si, slow down."

Li Shimin laughed.

Empress Changsun was also quite helpless, and said, "Little Si, pay attention to safety."

"Hee hee! It's all right, everything is under Sizi's control."

What Xiao Si said was extremely proud, with a tendency to strategize.

then.

Surprised: "Hey! Father, you are sweating a lot on your back, is it too hot?!"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "That's right, the weather is getting hotter today, Father has sent someone to go to the ice room to fetch ice, and I'll use it for you when I get it back, seeing how hot you are... huh? Little boy, Why aren't you sweating?!"

It shouldn't be.

The basement of Chu Palace was extremely stuffy.

Compared with the ground, it is extremely hot and stuffy, so how could it be possible not to sweat? !

The little si said in a milky voice, "Hee hee, royal father! Si son discovered the secret treasure house of the second brother today. There is a secret treasure house of the second brother. Of course it is not hot."

"Let's go, Sizi will take you there."

Little Si jumped out of Li Shimin's arms.

Take his hand and trot quickly.

Li Shimin didn't know what the little guy wanted to do, so she left it to her.

And Chang Le behind him was full of doubts.

What secret treasure? !

She was discussing with the old man just now, so she didn't keep an eye on Xiao Si for a while, and when she came back, she found that Xiao Si's sweat was gone. Could it be related to that secret treasure?

Going around.

When he arrived at a new place, Li Shimin was stunned.

This…….

What's the matter? !

He widened his eyes.

At the current location, the temperature here can be said to be very different from before.

On one side is the hot summer, a muggy place.

On one side is the coolness of late autumn.

This... this, this, this! !

How did you do it! !

Even the imperial palace can't achieve such an effect.

"Father, how are you doing? Isn't it very comfortable and cool?"

The little si was turning around, staring longingly at Li Shimin.

As if to say.

Royal Father, Sizi is amazing.

Discovered this fairy treasure land, to relieve the heat of summer, we must boast! !

Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help smiling.

He felt that his precious daughter became cuter the more she looked.

"Yeah, father doesn't feel hot anymore."

Li Shimin said truthfully.

Li Shimin has never felt the coolness of this place, even the ice rooms specially made by those aristocratic families can't compare.

Kuan'er, that brat...

What has he been enjoying behind his back all these years?

and many more! !

In previous summers, Kuan'er was always invisible in the Imperial College and the Imperial Palace. Could it be related to this place? !

This is so...

Such a good place, no wonder he doesn't study his homework every day.

So comfortable, who would want to go? !

at this time.

There is a gentle and elegant young man from Chu Palace who has been waiting for him for a long time.

Seeing that Xiao Sizi brought people over, he was still His Majesty, neither humble nor overbearing, he stretched out his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the Taoist priest ordered me to come and receive the guests brought by His Highness Xiao Sizi. Since you are here, please follow me to the room Rest, there is also a lot of tea in it."

Li Shimin glanced at him, picked up his little son, and walked behind him.

Behind.

Empress Changsun, Princess Changle and other palace attendants also came over one after another.

This! ! !

hiss! ! !

my God! !

Empress Changsun was a little confused.

The same is true for Princess Changle, who even shuddered a few times.

All the palace people were even more stunned, their faces were astonished and unbelievable.

This temperature is simply amazing! !

They followed behind Li Shimin and the young man, and the closer they got, the cooler they felt. After the young man opened a mechanism, appeared in a room and entered, they felt extremely comfortable all over their bodies.

"Why is your room so cool?!"

Li Shimin couldn't help asking.

I don't understand very much.

I really don't understand.

Even if it is to take ice, it is impossible to cool the whole room.

Li Shimin has spent many summers, even if there are some ice cubes, he almost bites the bullet and cooks.

Especially when you go to bed at night, what if there are ice cubes?

It's too cold to put on the body, but it can only be comfortable for a while when placed next to it, and then all the water will melt, and the water stains have to be cleaned up. Before I can fall asleep, the temperature will rise again.

And if there is such a house in summer.

That is really unimaginable! !

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the bliss of the world.

"That's right! What's going on here, Sizi raised his hand, wanting to know too."

Xiao Si didn't understand either, she was sitting at a table, her little hand was raised like a primary school student asking a question, and her little feet were constantly dangling under the table.

Empress Changsun, Princess Changle and others also looked over. Although they didn't speak, they were all extremely curious.

this place.

It's puzzling.

While pouring tea for everyone, the young man said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a special ice room in the Prince Chu's Mansion. It was built at a great cost and cost, and His Highness personally supervised the construction of the whole process."

"The overall construction is different from ordinary rooms. In order to store the cold air in the room as much as possible, the entire room is sealed. And there is a place under the room for ice cubes. The place is also specially made, the purpose is to let the ice cubes Spread the cool air as far as possible throughout the room."

After finishing speaking, the boy came to the table where Xiao Si was, and took away the bluestone slab in the middle, and immediately the hollow layout underneath was clearly visible.

Li Shimin walked over to take a look, and was instantly taken aback.

Below is another small room.

Their room is equivalent to floating one meter in the air, while the bottom is completely covered with ice.

Yes.

ice! !

It's all ice! ! !

This house can be said to be built on ice.

No wonder it's so cold.

Empress Changsun, Princess Changle and others also surrounded her.

When I saw the scenery below, I couldn't help but gasp.

So much ice, too extravagant! !

Many children from aristocratic families can move the heavens and the earth with a piece of ice in summer, but the room here is built among countless ice cubes. This... It is an understatement to say that it is a luxury, it is a waste!Huge waste! !

"Hmph, Kuan'er, is it possible that he spent the summer here like this in previous years? When the ice cubes melted, put new ones, and keep putting new ones?!"

Li Shimin's expression was extremely ugly at this time.

Currently, the only known way to obtain ice cubes is to use natural ice stored in the cellar in winter.

"Tang Yanyan": Kuai people are merchants and sell ice in the market.

"Miscellaneous Notes of Yunxian": The ice and snow in Chang'an, until Xiayue, is worth as much as gold and jade.

These two records prove that there was already a business of selling ice in the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that the ice cubes are stored in winter and sold only in summer. During the two seasons of storage, it can be said that the consumption is extremely high, and the cost of storage is extremely high, so that "sky-high price ice cubes" appear.

Even some small aristocratic families can’t afford to use ice in summer. Even Li Shimin, in the imperial city, uses ice cubes under precise control every day. The key name is Wei Zheng, and it is said that he is greedy for pleasure and has no regard for the world.

But…….
