(Thanks to the friends who voted for the monthly ticket and rewarded, because I can’t record it because I’m almost done swiping, I’m here to express my thanks, today is the third update!)
"This is the te armor?" Li Ke''s eyes straightened instantly. Ever since Niu Jinda brought cavalry into Chang''an, the word te armor has spread like wildfire in Chang''an. Every passionate man yearns for it wholeheartedly, and Li Ke does not Exceptions, especially after the 3,000 sets of armor that Li Yin presented to Li Shimin to equip the imperial guards guarding the Taiji Pce, the ministers and generals saw the imperial guards wearing te armor every day when they went to court, and they were very envious.
A few letters came and asked Li Yin to prepare a set for him. Unexpectedly, Li Yin would surprise him at the end of the year.
"One is te armor and the other is scale armor!" Li Yin prepared two sets of armor for Li Ke.
"Scale armor?" Li Kepared it, only to find that the armor on the left is really different from the te armor on the right. This te armor is a whole piece, while the armor in this box is like scales, but the style is the same. te armor is simr, "What''s this called?"
"The difference between scale armor and te armor is that this kind of armor isposed of small pieces of metal, which looks very beautiful when worn on the body, and can effectively resist armor-piercing arrows." Li Yin exined.
The armor in the box has been disassembled into several parts, but each part is very delicate. Compared with the te armor, the production process of the scale armor is very cumbersome and the production speed is very slow, so Li Yin did not choose to be in the army in the early stage. Equipped with scale armor, another reason is that the application of armor-piercing arrows in this era is not widespread, and there is no appearance of Mongolian horn bows, and ordinary bows and arrows cannot pose a threat to Li Yin''s te armor made of high-strength materials. The battle of Tuyuhun also fully proved this point. Later, the production technology of the iron and steel factory was greatly improved, and armor pieces could be produced in batches. Therefore, Li Yinrang produced some scale armor equipment for Wuhou Pavilion. This kind of armor is still more popr to wear on the body. It is rtively flexible, and its flexibility is better than that of te armor, and it can be worn out on weekdays. It is not as heavy as te armor, which has to be taken off after fighting.
Li Ke took out all the parts of the scale armor and the te armor. Li Min nodded and motioned for Rong Da toe forward to help Li Ke put on the scale armor. "Ling, the scale armor and the te armor are stronger.", Li Ke was a little tangled up when wearing it.
"Each has its advantages and disadvantages, but what you are facing in the north is riding and shooting in the grasnd, and it will be better to use scale armor." Li Yin said.
Li Ke nodded half-understanding, but he didn''t care about this either. What he cares about is that he can wear it to show off. After trying two types of armor, Li Ke decided to wear scale armor, because the shape of scale armor is basically simr to the Mingguang armor of Tang Dynasty. Many generals wore it like this, while te armor It''s a bit bulky, and even its feet are wrapped in armor.
Li Ke was very happy to receive a mysterious gift from Li Yin. He ordered the guards to carry the armor back to his house. Li Ke went to receive his gift again, Li Ke was very happy, but when he saw that there were two things in these gifts that were different from other princes and princesses, Li Ke asked, "What is in this jar of Liu Lang?"
When the servant of Li Ke''s pce carried two half-meter-high jars out. Li Ke made several servants stop.
Startled suddenly, Li Yin almost forgot that there are these two things. For those princes who are already married, Li Yin has prepared two new products from Yizhou, vegetable oil and white sugar. One of the things this servant is carrying is vegetable oil and the other is white sugar.
"Third brother didn''t remind me, but I forgot!" Li Yin walked to the two pots and opened the lids of the y pots, and said, "These two are new products from Yizhou. Let you have a taste first, this is vegetable oil, this It''s white sugar."
Facing two fresh words, Li Ke expressed his thoughts with puzzled eyes.
Li Yin continued: "Three pinch some white things to taste?" Li Yin pointed to the jar containing white sugar.
Li Ke squeezed a little bit with his hands and put it in his mouth as he said, a sweet taste quickly spread on the tip of his tongue, sweeter than the maltose sold in Chang''an, "Well, it''s really sweet!" Li Ke said.
"This white sugar is simr to the maltose sold now, but white sugar is more useful than maltose, especially if you eat sweet potatoes with a little white sugar, it will be more delicious." Li Yin closed the lid and pointed to the nt. , "This is the same as meat oil, just put some when cooking. After the third brother goes back, he can ask the back kitchen to use it instead of meat oil for cooking. The taste will be much better."
These two items are actually things for living at home, and they are all used to improve food. Li Ke understood, and said: "Then I''ll go back and let the back kitchen try it!"
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Ke also had a lot of things to do, so he stopped staying here with Li Yin and returned to Prince Wu''s Mansion with gifts.
After seeing off Li Ke, Li Yin returned to the hotel. At this time, Cui Yingying and Li Yin''s sisters were still chatting with each other, but Li Yin''s sisters also showed envy. Except for the youngest Sizi who knows nothing but snacks, even Li Zhi also ran to join in the fun.
Li Yin saw it, cleared his throat and said, "What are you talking about?"
Princess Changle said: "Sixth brother, there are so many interesting things in Yizhou. If the princess didn''t tell us, we wouldn''t know about it?"
"There are Baihuatan, goldfish, butterfly dog!" Princess Xincheng said.
"I really want to go to Yizhou!"
"..."
A few princesses are talking about each other again.
Li Yin said: "You go to ask the father, if youe to Yizhou, the sixth brother will definitely entertain you."
"It''s the father who didn''t allow us to go." Changle said at this time, "I also said that my daughter''s house should not run around." Changle''s words contained resentment. Curious about the endless products, I mentioned it to Li Shimin several times, but was rejected by Li Shimin.
Li Yin shook his head, Li Shimin was worried about what might happen to them, they are all princesses after all, and they are all precious!
Women have the topic of women, even if they are small women, Li Yin moved away, at this time Rong Da hurried over and whispered something in Li Yin''s ear, Li Yin''s expression changed slightly, and he walked towards the side hall of the hotel .
At this time, a big man with a height of nearly two meters was sitting in the side hall. The muscles on the big man''s body were bulging.
"Sima Tu!" Li Yin stepped into the hall, saw the big man sitting on the chair at a nce, and shouted.
"Your Highness!" Sima Tu stood up, with blood surging in his chest, his lips trembling slightly, obviously suppressing the excitement in his heart.
Li Yin stepped forward to support Sima Tu. Speaking of which, Li Yin and Sima Tu have not seen each other for a year, but the connection between them has never been broken, because he is one of Li Yin''s internal guards and has been doing Looking at Su Morer''s bodyguard, after Su Morer left Chang''an, he left him in Chang''an to protect Yun''er. At that time, Li Yin once thought that Su Morer had realized that Sima Tu was Li Yin''s person, so he deliberately made his petty temper express his dissatisfaction. Leave Sima Tu behind, and in order to prevent Sima Tu from being exposed, Li Yin made him obey Su Moer''s arrangement, and he re-arranged people to monitor the hidden guards. Li Yin didn''t do this to guard against anyone, because he understood Apples can''t be put in one basket, as soon as it''s over, it''s all over.
"You have suffered a lot this year." Li Yin asked Sima Tu to sit down, saying that a year is not long or short.
"If His Highness hadn''t taken me in back then, Sima Tu would probably still be wandering around now, and His Highness still trusts me so much. If I died for my confidant, Sima Tu would be willing to do my best for His Highness." Sima Tu Hongsheng said.
Li Yin nodded with a smile, "With your words, the king is relieved. Is Yun''er still the same?"
Simatu sighed, and said: "Returning to Your Highness, she still embroiders every day, or she is in a daze. She has always felt guilty, thinking that she killed her parents."
Li Yin was silent, Yun''er returned to her hometown after leaving the pce, and Lizheng in her vige really fell in love with her because of Yun''er''s beauty, and Yun''er''s parents were also willing to have this happy event, but Yun''er refused to do so. escaped from home.
That Li was originally a bully in the vige. He bought the official after bribing the county magistrate. Where did the peasants get the money, but Li Zheng refused to let it go, so he set fire to Yun''er''s house, and her parents were both burned to death.
Later, Yun''er fled to Chang''an and was met by Su Morer. Su Morer and Yuner were sisters when they were in the pce, so they took her into the newspaper office. After Sima Tu told Li Yin about this, Li Yin let her Li Ke used his own rtionship to put Lizheng on death row. After all, Yun''er had served him for a while, and she had no feelings, but also had family ties, so he couldn''t just stand by and watch.
"I see." Li Yin sighed secretly, "Rongda said you have something important to report?"
At this time, Sima Tu said with a serious look: "Yes, after His Highness arrived in Chang''an, the secret guards'' eyeliner was very focused on collecting any news that would be unfavorable to His Highness, and promptly notified His Highness to make preparations. Just this morning. , The dark guard detected a group of people who began to monitor the hotel, and when His Highness went to the court meeting in the morning, there were also people following him."
"This morning?"
"Yes, Your Highness, there was nothing in the past two days. This morning, a group of people suddenly appeared near the hotel, looking furtive, and there are hidden guards disguised as ordinary people around the hotel. They noticed something unusual at a nce, so I came to inform His Highness to be careful." Sima Tu continued.
Li Yin''s face turned cold, who would make him ufortable during the Chinese New Year? He said: "You immediately send additional secret guards to watch them, and pass on the information to me at any time. When theye to collect information, they must go back and report. Let the secret guards watch them go where?"
"Yes, Your Highness, I will arrange it right away!" Sima Tu responded and left quickly, Li Yin''s safety was the most important thing at this time.
After Sima Tu left, Li Yin called Wuwei over and told him to inform the thousand cavalrymen in the Zuowuwei camp to be on standby day and night, ready to attack at any time, and his heart was beating violently like never before. Appeared in his mind, is someone finally going to do something to him? (To be continued..)
