Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the game is to touch the Princess Changle

Ten days had passed before they knew it.

Su Chen was drinking with Princess Changle over peanuts.

"Su Chen, are these peanuts fried? So crispy?" Changle asked vaguely while eating peanuts.

"Hehe, don't eat so much, it will make you get angry." Su Chen reminded with a smile, this thing really makes you get angry if you eat too much.

"After drying the peanuts, peel off the shells and carefully select them, boil them in water first and then fry them.

After boiling in water, it is not easy to get burnt, and sprinkle some fine salt on it before it is completely cooled."

Su Chen told Princess Changle how to make fried peanuts. Seeing that she kept nodding, he didn't know if she could remember it.

"Su Chen, I made it, hahaha..." Li Tai rarely called himself "I" in the manor, and most of the time he called himself "I" like everyone else.

The two people who were fighting for food suddenly heard Li Tai's laughing voice from outside.

After a while, Li Tai walked into the living room with two glass ornaments similar to vases in front of his chest, laughing all the way.

It is not difficult to see that Li Tai is very excited about his research results.

Su Chen stopped grabbing food and patted the little fine salt on his hands. At first, the two of them used chopsticks, but later they just grabbed it with their hands.

Su Chen stood up and took a glass bottle, turning it in his hand to observe, "Not bad, crystal clear."

"Can glass be shaped now?"

Li Tai put down another glass bottle in his hand, staring at the peanuts on the coffee table, and didn't even pay attention to Su Chen's question.

"Crack~Crack~!"

Li Tai grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth. Princess Changle hurriedly took the plate and walked aside.

Although Li Tai has been losing weight as Su Chen said, it is difficult to change this habit of eating.

And his obesity is not entirely due to eating.

Seeing Changle protecting the food, Li Tai did not continue to grab food and clapped his hands.

"Glass modeling is not difficult, and those skilled craftsmen can do it. Lao Wu asked a carving craftsman to shape a pair of lifelike glass pigs for him."

"When the glass melt has not cooled down, just blow air into it to make it hollow, and you can make all kinds of glassware!"

Su Chen instantly remembered the checkers he made before, and now he can make glass beads.

"Li Tai, help me make some glass balls of different colors today, about the same size as human eyeballs, as for how to make the colors, you figure it out yourself."

"Also, study how to make a mirror."

Su Chen didn't care what method Li Tai used, and let him study it slowly.

"Mirror? This glass is translucent on both sides, how can it be made into a mirror?" Li Tai asked doubtfully.

"Since it is translucent, then you can find a way to make it opaque, such as melting silver into water and applying it on the other side, so that it is not translucent."

The material of the mirror is also glass, but it changes the reflectivity of light, so that it reflects light to form an image.

Li Tai nodded after thinking, as if he had found a hint of inspiration.

"By the way, I'll draw a few pictures later. See if you can ask those craftsmen to imitate them with glass."

Li Tai nodded, then walked out of the living room. He was going to study it right away.

"Hurry up and make it. I'm going to use it when I go to the palace tomorrow!" Su Chen shouted at him.

"Li Zhi, wait for your fourth brother to make the mirror, and I'll make a dressing table for you and your mother."

"Okay, I'll wait!" Changle didn't know what the dressing table Su Chen was talking about looked like.

"Zhang Long, have someone peel another 100 kilograms of peanuts." Su Chen ordered Zhang Long outside the door, planning to bring some peanuts to the palace tomorrow.

"Miss, son-in-law, the queen sent someone to send 350,000 taels of silver." Jin'er, the housekeeper of the manor, ran in to report to them.

Su Chen was puzzled. Why did the queen send money at this time? He had a lot of money!

"Li Zhi, why do you think the mother sent money to us?" Su Chen looked at Changle and asked.

"It's the profit of the restaurant. Don't forget that Mr. Su gets 30%!"

Changle couldn't help but think of the time when he first met Su Chen.

In fact, Empress Changsun has always given money to Su Chen, but it was inconvenient to repair the road last month, so this is two months of dividends.

Su Chen just remembered that he was still a shareholder of Leshan Restaurant.

"Lizhi, we don't want the 30% of the restaurant in the future. It's useless to have a lot of money. I'm very rich now."

Changle looked at Su Chen for a moment, "Just make your decision."

"Housekeeper Jin'er, come and try these peanuts!" Su Chen smiled and said to Jin'er. Since moving into the manor, this little girl has called Su Chen her son-in-law.

...

Today, after lunch, Li Shimin continued to discuss important matters in the court with the ministers in the imperial study.

"Lord Dai, the sweet potatoes and potatoes shipped to various prefectures must be planted after August. Remember to instruct the officials of various prefectures and counties to do a good job of supervision."

Li Shimin was very fond of this grain seed.I am concerned about whether the people will go hungry in the future, and I will rely on these sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"Your Majesty, I obey your order!" Dai Zhou bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. When the seeds are distributed, I will order people to register them, and send special people to check them after planting."

Li Shimin nodded, then looked at Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, and said:

"Xuanling, Xuancheng, Kong Shi, the autumn examination is coming in August, and the three of you must make all preparations for the imperial examination as soon as possible."

This time, the imperial examination questions will be set by Fang Xuanling, Kong Yingda, and Yan Shigu, and Wei Zheng will be the chief examiner.

"Your Majesty, I have a request, I hope your Majesty will fulfill it!" Kong Yingda bowed again and said to Li Shimin.

"Oh? Master Kong, no need to be polite, just tell me what you want!"

Li Shimin still respected this great scholar of the Kong family and often asked him for advice on the Analects. Therefore, Li Shimin called him Master Kong, and within a few years, Kong Yingda was appointed as the chief priest of the Imperial Academy.

But he wondered what Kong Yingda would ask him for?

"Your Majesty, I have recently studied the lowercase numbers a little bit, and I think there are deeper mysteries in the lowercase numbers.

Therefore, I ask Your Majesty to allow me to consult with the gentleman who created the lowercase numbers in person."

Although Kong Yingda was sometimes stubborn, he was very humble to knowledgeable people.

Li Shimin was a little embarrassed. He knew a long time ago that Su Chen had a lot of opinions about the prince's teachers.

Kong Yingda was also the prince's teacher, so Li Shimin was worried that Su Chen would not give Kong Yingda face.

Li Shimin suddenly had an idea. This kid might know Kong Yingda, but he certainly wouldn't know who 'Zhongda' was.

"Master Kong, I think that kid will come to the palace in a few days. I will arrange for you to meet him then.

However, Master Kong can call himself Zhongda, but not reveal his name."

Kong Yingda seemed puzzled, but didn't ask, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin nodded, "Master Kong, you don't have to be so polite! That kid's name is Su Chen." Li Shimin was planning to be appointed as the chief priest of the Imperial Academy next year, and it would be better to learn more knowledge.

This lowercase number must be promoted in the Tang Dynasty, but it can't be caught up in the autumn examination.

In the future, the arithmetic calculation of the imperial examination must be added.

Then, Li Shimin frowned slightly and thought:

'That kid once said that he would come to the palace in 'two days', why has it been more than ten days, and there is no trace of him. '
