Chapter 224: I want to destroy some aristocratic families

"Snapped--"

In Ganquan Hall, Li Shimin smashed the tea cup on his table.

The scalding tea splashed everywhere and bursts of steam came out.

Several eunuchs who were in charge of serving were immediately frightened and quickly knelt on the ground.

I was so nervous in my heart.

No one knows why His Majesty the Emperor suddenly became so angry after leaving the palace.

Who provoked him again?

"We are told that Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Xiaogong, and Li Jing have entered the palace." Li Shimin said coldly.

Immediately a eunuch got up and hurriedly sent out orders.

"Your Majesty, what's going on?" Queen Changsun saw the little eunuch running out in panic and walked into the Ganquan Palace.

"Back off!" Li Shimin waved to the serving eunuch, with a smile on his face.

"It's getting so late, why don't you go to rest, Maid Guanyin? You haven't recovered yet, so you should pay more attention." Li Shimin came over and took Queen Changsun to sit aside.

"I heard from the people below that His Majesty had an angry face when he came back, but what happened?"

"Or is that boy Zhao Chen angry with Your Majesty again?" Queen Changsun explained.

She originally wanted to rest.

I didn't go to Zhao Chen's place today because I felt a little tired.

But before he lay down, he heard his subordinates say that the emperor had just returned to the palace, and his face was full of anger.

He looked extremely annoyed.

Empress Changsun lost her sleep immediately, fearing that Zhao Chen would irritate the emperor again.

"Guanyin Maid, you really care about that boy Zhao Chen." Li Shimin curled his lips and muttered.

He naturally knew that Zhao Chen deliberately provoked the shopkeepers to say such things.

It was just to get revenge on myself for following his words.

This kid is really stingy to the extreme.

However, he didn't care about any of this.

What Li Shimin cares about is that those shopkeepers brazenly believed that what Zhao Chen said was right.

He even used the Xuanwumen Incident and the Turks' southward movement to repeatedly stimulate Li Shimin's heart.

"That boy Zhao Chen is not a good guy. I only obeyed a few of his story books, and he is going to be angry with me."

"If it weren't for the fact that he was doing a good job, I would have broken his legs." Li Shimin snorted angrily.

Empress Changsun smiled, knowing that the emperor was not so angry because of Zhao Chen.

Otherwise, it would not be like this.

But just like this, it made her even more curious about what happened to make the emperor so angry.

"Then why does Your Majesty..."

"Those aristocratic families..." Li Shimin frowned and slowly talked to Queen Changsun about what had just happened in the tavern.

"That boy Zhao Chen did it on purpose. I will reprimand him tomorrow for Your Majesty!" After hearing this, Empress Changsun immediately assured the emperor.

She was also shocked by Zhao Chen's words.

Isn't it clear that he deliberately provoked those shopkeepers from aristocratic families to say such treasonous words?

And he said it in front of the emperor.

This thought is unacceptable.

"I don't blame him. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have known that those aristocratic families would treat me this way."

"Xuanwumen! By the Weishui River, what a noble family, what a half of the Tang Dynasty!"

"I understand, I understand everything!"

Li Shimin had a smile on his face, but a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Queen Changsun said nothing.

Although I have known for a long time that those aristocratic families are arrogant and arrogant, they can say such things even if they don't want to.

Although the person who said this was the shopkeeper below, it also reflected the attitude of those aristocratic families towards the emperor.

"Your Majesty hasn't had a meal yet. I'll let you prepare it." Queen Changsun said to Li Shimin.

"I'm not hungry anymore. The auxiliary machines will come back later. By the way, I'll show you something good!" Li Shimin waved his hand and thought of the paper he got back from Zhao Chen.

Take it out from your pocket and lay them out on the table one by one.

"Look, Maid Guanyin, this is paper made by that boy Zhao Chen." Li Shimin said to Queen Changsun, with a hint of joy finally showing on his face.

Queen Changsun was stunned for a moment, and then she became filled with shock.

He lifted up a piece of yellowed paper in his hand, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Your Majesty, is this really done by Zhao Chen?" Queen Changsun asked.

"Yes." Li Shimin nodded.

I was also sighing in my heart that Zhao Chen actually developed movable type printing and papermaking in just one day.

Although the quality of this paper is not as good as rice paper, it is made of some rotten hemp. ??

The cost is not high.

If this kind of paper could be popular in the Tang Dynasty, who wouldn't be able to read and write?

"Zhao Chenke said, how did you do this?"

"In one day, he completed what he said yesterday. This is amazing." Empress Changsun was a little excited and asked Li Shimin.

For a long time, printing did not exist.

Engraving and printing came later.

Block printing solved the problem of book printing, but it was very labor-intensive and material-intensive.

This is not on the same level as the movable type printing technology developed by Zhao Chen.

Furthermore, the paper Zhao Chen made only used some rotten hemp and straw as raw materials.

The cost has been reduced by countless times.

Even ordinary people can afford books and paper.

These two inventions were definitely epoch-making inventions for Datang.

Queen Changsun wanted to know how Zhao Chen did this.

"The shopkeepers from those stores came too quickly. They came in before I even asked.

. "Li Shimin shook his head.

He wanted to ask, who knew those people went to the tavern again today.

Let him hold back all his words.

After that, I was even more irritated, and I didn't have the thought to ask Zhao Chen about this.

"By the way, Zhao Chen said he is going to the East and West Second Market to sell chili peppers tomorrow. If you are bored in the palace, you can go and have a look."

"I'm afraid I'll be quite busy these days and won't be able to spend too much time with you." Li Shimin said to Empress Changsun.

"Your Majesty wants to touch those aristocratic families..."

Li Shimin did not answer, but waved to Empress Changsun and said, "Guanyin, please go back and rest first. The auxiliary machines are coming soon."

Empress Changsun knew that the emperor was unwilling to talk to her about this, so she nodded, "I'll take my leave now, Your Majesty, take a rest early."

Li Shimin nodded.

"Empress!"

Queen Changsun had just walked a few steps when she met Changsun Wuji and others at the door.

"Go, Your Majesty is waiting for you!" Queen Changsun nodded and took the initiative to make way for a few people.

"Your Majesty, please go first." How dare these people ask Queen Changsun to make way for them? Their expressions immediately changed and they stepped aside.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Empress Changsun smiled and slowly left the Ganquan Hall.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!" Several people watched the queen leave, turned around and walked quickly to the center of the hall, and said to Li Shimin with their hands in hand.

Li Shimin raised his head, glanced at the four people in front of him, and said, "Get on your feet."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Several people shouted in unison.

"Your Majesty, you have summoned us here late at night for something important?" Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin asked.

The rest of the people were also full of doubts.

They all lay down, but they were woken up by the servants in the mansion, saying that the emperor had summoned them.

Why did the emperor summon them this late at night?

"I want to annihilate some aristocratic families!" Li Shimin's eyes slowly fell on a few people and he said in a solemn voice.
