"Hey, but I really don't have a clue now. I don't know how to make this steam motor. How about we invite His Royal Highness the King of Chu to come over for a visit some other time and see if he can provide us with some suggestions?"

Li Desai was very moved after hearing Di Renjie's words.

The greater the role of the steam engine, the greater the influence on the inventor's fame.

Ever since he was a child, Li Desai liked to study various "obscene techniques", and he didn't know how many times he was secretly laughed at.

Li Jing did not have any special pursuits in the court, and it had something to do with the fact that his two sons were not very competitive.

Li Desai very much hopes that everyone in the world can see that the strange and obscene skills he has developed are not useless.

"Okay, I'll mention it to Master later. He has always been very concerned about steam engines and should be willing to come and take a look."

For others, inviting Li Kuan may not be an easy task.

But for Di Renjie, it was a piece of cake.

…

In the East Palace, eldest son Sun Jiaqing and Li Chengqian reported some of the intelligence they had collected.

"That Li Derjian asked him to come over to banquets several times in a row, but he didn't attend. Could it be that he saw that the wind was going wrong and went to Li Tai's side?"

Li Derjian was Li Chengqian's key figure to win over.

As the eldest son of Li Jing, Li Derjian stood by Li Chengqian, which in the eyes of many people represented Li Jing's support for the current prince.

"His Royal Highness, this Li Derjian has been possessed by some evil spirit recently. He went to Guanshishan Academy without any trouble. He didn't even take a look at himself in the mirror. His daughter is already five years old, but he still goes to the academy to be a student."

The eldest son, Jiaqing, naturally sensed Li Chengqian's dissatisfaction with Li Derjian, so he responded to his wishes and was very rude.

"As a student at Guanshishan Academy, you don't have to come to the banquet every time. Have you ever gone to see him?"

"I looked for it, but I didn't see it. It is said that he spends all day at the Steam Engine Research Institute of Guanshishan Academy. There are special guards guarding the entrance of this research institute, so no one can enter casually. I went to look for him twice.

, have not even seen Li Derjian's face. Your Highness, according to me, as the eldest son of Duke Wei, Li Derjian does not join the army, but hangs out with a group of craftsmen all day long. Now, nine out of ten times, he is also being used by some new style.

I am fascinated by the craftsmanship, and it may not necessarily have other purposes.”

Even he himself didn't believe what Changsun Jiaqing said.

"My cheap second brother always ruins my good deeds. I won't say anything about my unclear position, and now he wants to undermine me. Huh, does he really think that I am easy to bully? He really thinks that no one in Chang'an City can do anything.

he?"

Li Chengqian was criticized by Li Shimin again today, but Li Tai was praised by Li Shimin for completing the manuscript of "Kuo Di Zhi" he edited.

This book edited by Li Tai compiles the history, geography, names, mountains, rivers, cities, monuments, myths and legends, and major historical events of the major states and counties in the Tang Dynasty.

Since the editorial team is relatively large and full of talents, the whole book can be said to be full of references.

As if Li Shimin had found a treasure, he not only collected this work in the library of the Daming Palace for preservation, but also gave Li Tai many rewards one after another, which made Li Chengqian's eyes turn red.

No wonder he was in a very unhappy mood today.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I think something your Highness the King of Han said is quite right."

"That sentence?"

“Strike first will gain you strength, but striking later will lead to disaster!”

Changsun Jiaqing looked at Li Chengqian with a profound expression.

This Crown Prince is so similar to the former Prince Yin.

He is often indecisive, but he has a capable younger brother.

Everyone has seen the consequences of not taking action first.

As a die-hard supporter of Li Chengqian, eldest son Jiaqing still hopes to rely on his merits in Conglong to take the position of six ministers.

"Let me think about it again!"

Li Chengqian's face was uncertain, and he was constantly thinking about the pros and cons of the matter.

Although the current situation in the court is not very good, the queen mother still supports her wholeheartedly.
