Chai Shao's face turned crimson.
Old Fang, jokes aside, don't joke about the old man!
How could you forget? What can you do? Besides, they're all growing well in the ground. With me as your son-in-law, are you afraid they'll run away?
Fang Xuanling finally remembered.
Just now, Fang Er said he brought back the seedlings.
He quickly said to Li Shimin.
Your Majesty, your minister requests that the Earl of Liaodong bring those seedlings for inspection.
Li Shimin nodded.
Earl of Liaodong, quickly bring your seedlings.
Fang Er heard this and didn't move. He scanned the surroundings and saw a young eunuch standing at the door.
Hey, it's you. Go, outside Chengtian Gate, and ask the Yan Yun Cavalry for the seedlings.
After speaking, he chuckled at Li Shimin.
Your Majesty, your minister returned from Shenyang from a great distance, traveling for four whole days. I haven't rested well. Let my subordinates fetch them.
Li Shimin gave the eunuch a look.
The eunuch set off towards the palace.
Suddenly, Li Shimin's eyes widened.
He stared intently at Fang Er.
What did you say? Four days? You returned from Shenyang in four days?
Silence fell upon the hall once more.
How do they say it?
Showing off isn't scary!
It's scary when you cheat!
Fang Er, who had cheated, finally experienced the joy of showing off.
He said very calmly.
Basic operations, very ordinary things. Once the cement road is built, your minister guarantees that it will only take two days to get from Chang'an to Shenyang.
After speaking, he extended two fingers.
After thinking, he retracted half a finger.
Well, that's too much, a day and a half will suffice.
Li Shimin felt his worldview was about to collapse.
A day and a half, from Chang'an to Shenyang.
Four thousand li, how is this possible!
Cheng Yaojin finally got an opportunity to show his face.
Very proudly.
Your Majesty, brother Fang is telling the truth. He has created a vehicle that doesn't need horses or oxen to pull it, and it runs extremely fast! Faster than a thousand-li horse! It's so awesome!
It's parked just outside the palace.
Chai Shao was furious!
Damn it!
This is my son-in-law!
Why should Cheng Yaojin get to try it first?
Little Anzi~~~~~
Before Chai Shao could finish his sentence, he saw Fang Er glare at him.
He immediately realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed his tune.
Hahahaha, it's father's mistake. An Zhi, you see, can you take father for a spin?
Fang Er's mind was a mess of black lines!
What the hell do you mean by taking me for a spin!
The others, upon hearing Chai Shao's words, suddenly acted as if they had discovered a new continent. The vehicle that was faster than a thousand-li horse was forgotten.
Niu Jinda leaned over and tugged at Chai Shao's sleeve.
Well, you two father and son, are you having this much fun?
Father and son enjoying it together?
Why don't you take me, Old Niu, along?
Chai Shao's face turned green. What had he just said?
Then he glared at Niu Jinda.
Enjoy your grandmother! Your Grandpa Chai was talking about the car, driving, driving is enjoyable! Do you understand?
Li Shimin couldn't watch anymore.
These blockheads!
Let's go, let's all go out of the palace to take a look.
With that, he waved his sleeve and left the Taiji Hall first.
Fang Er followed suit.
The others followed in a mighty procession.
The group was like hungry dogs, afraid of being slow and missing out.
Outside Chengtian Gate, the eunuch who was retrieving the sweet potato vines was walking back, holding them, when he saw Li Shimin and the others rush out.
He was completely bewildered.
What happened?
He quickly stepped aside, clearing the way.
Outside Chengtian Gate, the Yan Yun Cavalry were gathered, chatting and gossiping.
They heard the sound of chaotic footsteps approaching.
They turned their heads and saw Li Shimin and the old generals.
They all recognized these people.
They had dealt with them quite a bit when they followed Luo Yi.
They quickly bowed to Li Shimin.
Yan Yun Cavalry, greetings Your Majesty.
Li Shimin waved his hand, signaling them to dispense with formalities.
Then he pointed to several vehicles and asked Fang Er.
These big fellows, are they the vehicles that Zhijie mentioned, the ones that don't need horses or oxen to pull them?
Fang Er nodded.
Li Shimin was very curious. He walked over and touched them, examining them carefully, as if trying to figure out how they were made.
Wow!
They are all made of the finest steel.
They're so big!
Cheng Yaojin pushed his way out of the crowd, looking very proud.
He walked up to the pickup truck, opened the passenger door, and said to Li Shimin.
Your Majesty, get in, Old Cheng will take you for a ride!
After speaking, he turned to Lü Shuang.
What are you standing there for? Start the car!
Lü Shuang glanced at Fang Er, and Fang Er nodded slightly at him.
Cheng Yaojin didn't get angry.
These people were all saved by Fang Er from the executioner. It was normal for them to only listen to Fang Er.
Xiao Qing in the backseat was terrified!
Why is His Majesty here? And wants to get in the car?
She quickly and cautiously opened the back door and got down.
She bowed to Li Shimin.
Your servant greets Your Majesty and all the lords.
Li Shimin's eyes appraised Xiao Qing, then he looked at Fang Er.
Is she your maid?
Fang Er quickly pulled Xiao Qing back.
Hehe, she is indeed my maid. Didn't she follow the army all the way to Shenyang last time? She's returning with me this time.
Seeing Fang Er's wary expression, Li Shimin laughed and scolded.
You boy, what do you mean by this? Could I do something so sordid?
Fang Er smiled.
You misunderstand, your servant is sending her back to the manor.
With that, he put Xiao Qing into an armored vehicle.
Zhang De, take Xiao Qing back to the manor.
Zhang De started the armored vehicle and left with Xiao Qing.
Li Shimin watched the black smoke trailing behind the armored vehicle as it left.
He was full of surprise.
Turning his head, he jumped into the pickup truck.
He said to Cheng Yaojin.
Start it up, let me try.
Lü Shuang had already started the car.
Chai Shao and Niu Jinda, one on each side, jumped into the car from the back door.
They said to Li Shimin with fawning expressions.
Hehe, Your Majesty, we'll enjoy it with you too.
Li Shimin didn't even bother to acknowledge them.
Cheng Yaojin shifted into gear, stepped on the gas, and released the clutch, all in one smooth motion.
Then.
Dunang!
He released the clutch too quickly and stalled the engine!
Li Shimin's crown hit the car door.
With a forehead full of black lines, he looked at Cheng Yaojin.
Can you do it, or should someone else take over!
Hahahaha, a mistake, a mistake, purely a mistake, let's try again. Read Books!
Outside, start this thing up again for me!
Cheng Yaojin laughed it off.
The back of his head was warm, covered in cold sweat.
If he had bumped Li Shimin's forehead just now, the historians would have written him to death.
Fang Er, watching from outside, covered his forehead.
Can this guy be reliable!
The vehicle started up again.
Cheng Yaojin was very careful this time, his movements as gentle as possible.
He wondered if Sun Shi would be jealous if she saw this.
The vehicle began to move, turned, and drove towards the outskirts of the city.
It drove directly onto the cement road.
The dukes outside Chengtian Gate were all stunned.
They just left us here?
So, they all looked eagerly at the armored vehicles.
Seeing this, Fang Er smiled and looked at them.
Gentlemen, get in the cars, we'll chase after them.
So, these people all got into the armored vehicles.
The Yan Yun Cavalry started their engines and pursued the pickup truck.
