The old chamberlain couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Because according to previous years' practice, shouldn't the Metropolitan Water Supervisory Authority arrange for manpower to be cleared?

But he didn't dare to say it, and he didn't dare to ask.

Li Shimin's oral instructions reached Zhongshu Province. Fang Xuanling, who was handling government affairs, could not help but frown slightly, but then he remembered the farce and waved his hand calmly.

"Follow your Majesty's instructions and prepare the decree."

Therefore, this tacit imperial edict quickly passed the seal of Zhongshumen and was sent to Shangshu Province.

While Wei Zheng was using the seal, he looked at Gao Shilian with a tangled expression next to him with a smile, and joked.

"Mr. Gao, who are you showing this face to? You can just have fun -"

Gao Shilian was not annoyed when someone exposed him, he smiled and stroked his beard.

"A disadvantage is a blessing. As for today's young people, we have to let them have a longer memory——"

No matter what you say, Gao Ting is also his nephew, so it would be a lie to say he doesn't care at all.

Is it okay for a person to offend the emperor and be remembered by the emperor?

If the emperor had been indifferent to Gao Ting, he would be really worried. Now that the emperor has taken action, and just asked him to clear the sewers in Nancheng, he is simply getting a big deal!

After all, as an emperor, he would naturally not catch such a junior without mercy. If he took action, it would mean that the matter was over.

Of course, the premise is that this piece of shit is fooled again.

Thinking of this, Gao Shilian simply packed up the things on the table and stood up leisurely.

"Everyone, I will take the first step——"

When he walked to the door, he smiled and shook his head.

"As I get older, I value the younger members of my family more and more. I have to go and see that villain and tell him not to be confused again this time..."

When he said it so openly and aboveboard, everyone stopped teasing and laughed.

"Brother Shi Lian (Gao Gong), walk slowly——"

Everyone waved their hands very understandingly and let him go first.

Unlike others, Gao Shilian has a detached status in Shangshu Province. Although he no longer holds the position of minister, he has been authorized by His Majesty to serve as counselor in government affairs, and there are obvious signs of returning to a more important role. What's more, he is still the eldest grandson Wuji.

and the uncle of Queen Changsun.

But with this level of status, you have to be respected by others.

Gao Shilian left happily.

As soon as Gao Shilian left, Duan Lun and Huang Xu rushed in in a hurry.

"My lords, I am so happy!"

As soon as the two people entered the door, they couldn't help but smile.

Looking at these two old guys who were over a hundred years old together, they were so happy that they almost floated. Everyone couldn't help but feel curious.

You know, Duan Lun is better. That Huang Xu is the second most famous Wei Zheng, and he has a dead face.

What good thing happened to this?

“Where does joy come from?”

"Today, we got two new iron forging methods from Chang'an Marquis Wang Zi'an!"

Huang Xu glanced at Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others with some pride.

"One of them has been verified to be more than a hundred times more efficient than the original one!"

hiss--

Everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

The efficiency is more than a hundred times higher than before!

This means that the production efficiency of binite is much higher than that of ordinary iron tools. In other words, the entire army of the Tang Dynasty will soon be equipped with magical weapons made of binite.

When I thought about the hundreds of thousands of Tang troops, all holding weapons made of iron, everyone suddenly became excited.

When that day comes, who in the world can still stop the Tang Dynasty's military front?

"Is this true?"

Several people couldn't help but turn pale in shock, with disbelief on their faces.

"This is the handiwork of the Marquis of Chang'an. You can say it yourself——"

Huang Xu sneered and glanced at them with disdain.

Everyone:…

No, Lao Huang, can you still do it?

Last time, weren't you still bitter about Wang Zi'an selling radiators at high prices and defrauding your family of thousands of dollars?

In the blink of an eye, you have become a die-hard fan?

However, everyone knew about this guy's bad temper, and they didn't dare to make fun of him because they were worried that he would become angry.

Resist the urge to complain.

However, every face couldn't help showing a look of ecstasy.

"We must immediately seal off the weapons inspection and strengthen our defenses. We must not let this technology be exposed—"

Wei Zheng looked serious.

"Yes, once this kind of technology spreads, the consequences will be disastrous——"

Changsun Wuji and others also reacted one after another.

A consensus was quickly reached to once again strengthen the defense force of the weapons supervisor and conduct in-depth screening within the weapons supervisor to prevent spies from being mixed in.

Looking at these normally stable bosses, each of them acting like they were facing a formidable enemy, Huang Xu and Duan Lun couldn't help but look at each other, revealing a meaningful smile.

Guys, if you know how to pour steel, you won't be so nervous that you can't sleep.

However, they were not prepared to let the news out until they built a blast furnace and saw real results.

Don't be like these young people who can't hide things!

The two old guys finished sharing and left triumphantly.

I have nothing to do today, I just came here to show off!

After discussing the matter of strengthening the defense force, several big bosses could not help but calm down and carefully consider the chain reactions that this new forging method might cause.

For a while, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.

Changsun Wuji thought about it for a while, packed up his things, apologized, got up and prepared to leave.

Now that the salt and iron tax has been implemented, as the leader of the Guanlong family, he is under great pressure.

He gritted his teeth and asked the eldest son's family to step forward and pay taxes in accordance with the court regulations. This was almost equivalent to breaking away from the Guanlong family, and life would be difficult.

Although everyone didn't say anything openly, they kept making small moves in private. Changsun's family's property was besieged and attacked by these people from all aspects almost at the same time. These attacks made him extremely anxious and exhausted to deal with.

If this forging method is used well, it seems to be an opportunity to break the situation!

But the blacksmithing method was too involved, and he couldn't get involved without His Majesty's nod.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, as soon as he stood up, he saw Tang Jian and Wei Zheng also standing up.

"As for the salt and iron tax, we still need to discuss it with His Majesty. Duke Qi, do you want to come with us?"

Changsun Wuji:......

"Ah good--"

Changsun Wuji hesitated for a moment, then quickly adjusted his mentality, and the others rushed to the imperial study together.

As a result, several people rushed to the imperial study and found that there was no one in the imperial study. After asking, they found out that His Majesty had gone to the imperial garden!

When did Your Majesty become so leisurely and relaxed?

Several people couldn't help but look at each other, turned around in a tacit understanding, and went to the Imperial Garden.

However, as soon as a few people reached the entrance of the Royal Garden, they were stunned and almost thought that they had gone to the wrong place.

What are you doing?

Are you trying to demolish the palace?

"stop--"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but get angry, raised his mustache, and shouted loudly.

The palace maids and eunuchs who came and went were frightened. They all held the flowers and plants in their hands and lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

"Who gave you the courage!"

Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji were also a little confused. Was it because they had eaten the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage?
