Chapter 190

"Gifts? You mean that Merton boy came to give me gifts!"

In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked at Xi Junmai who came to report in surprise!

"Return to your majesty. Now Lord Mo is waiting outside the palace." Xi Jun bought a way.

"Oh! If you don't want to be courteous, you'll steal. This boy won't get into trouble again!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Hmm? According to the report from Baiqi, Lord Mo hasn't done anything unusual recently. Otherwise, Weichen will go and refuse him!" Xi Jun thought.

"No, since he's here, let him in!" said Li Shimin.

To tell you the truth, Li Shimin probably wouldn't have seen ordinary people, but what Merton did was good for the country and the people. Li Shimin was still very curious about what Merton could send in person.

Soon, Merton led four horses and a luxurious four-wheel carriage to the Tai Chi hall. Riding is prohibited in the Imperial Palace, even the carriage. Merton naturally won't make this taboo.

"The gift of a carriage!" Li Shimin was stunned when he looked at the four-wheel carriage and looked at Merton. It seems that Merton has caused a lot of trouble! It cost so much.

Merton's face darkened when he heard the speech and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. The gift given by Weichen is this carriage."

"Carriage?" Li Shimin was suddenly embarrassed. Only then did he find the strange looking four-wheel carriage.

Li Shimin remembered that in the secret newspaper a few days ago, the news of the ambulance of Mo hospital in Chang'an city seemed to be a four-wheel carriage.

"When Wei Chen was designing an ambulance for the Mohist hospital, he suddenly realized that not only patients don't like bumps, but ordinary people don't like the bumps of carriages. Even Wei Chen would rather ride a horse than take a car far away every time he returns to the Mohist village. So the boy had a whim and made a four-wheel carriage for ordinary people. His majesty manages everything every day. He likes to visit the people at ordinary times. There is this one The comfortable and smooth carriage will certainly not suffer from bumps again, "Morton flattered.

"Oh!" Li Shimin suddenly became curious.

Merton led Li Shimin to the carriage, opened the door, exposed the soft collapse inside and Merton's imitation leather wrapped seats, and explained the advantages of the four-wheel carriage one by one.

Li Shimin tried to sit on the leather wrapped seat. He suddenly felt soft and his back was perfectly held. He sat for a long time to deal with official documents. His already exhausted body suddenly relaxed.

"Eh!"

Li Shimin was surprised and couldn't help but move his body. The original fatigue suddenly disappeared.

"Oh! You have a heart!" Li Shimin also moved in his heart. He is a gentle and weak emperor who has lived in the deep palace for a long time. He often travels and knows the bumps of the carriage. Sometimes he would rather ride a horse than take a bus. However, as the Emperor, the safety of the world is related to him, sometimes he has to ride in the carriage.

"Your Majesty, this carriage seems comfortable, but your majesty still focuses on safety. If you don't ask the Royal Horse supervisor to copy this carriage and build it separately," Xi Jun advised.

You should know that the emperor's chariots and horses are first-class from wood to workmanship. Although Merton's four-wheel carriage has novel style, its material is unknown and its workmanship is rough. It can't compare with the workmanship of the Royal Horse supervisor. Moreover, the emperor always put safety first in driving out the car, and the material selection is first-class good wood, while the wood in front of Mojia village is valuable wood.

"General Xi is out of sight now. The carriage under is made of the best wood in the world!" Merton shook his head and retorted.

"The best wood?"

Not only did Xi Jun buy this, but even Li Shimin was stunned.

"Merton, you can talk big. I haven't seen any valuable wood in the Imperial Palace, but I've never seen such wood like you. Is it that the Royal Horse supervisor deceived me?" Li Shimin said displeased.

Besides, if he really this kind of wood, but the Royal Horse supervisor doesn't give it to him, where will he be placed?

Merton immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. It's not the fault of the Royal Horse supervisor, but that the wood is too hard to cut. How can it be made into a carriage."

"Too hard? How hard?" Li Shimin asked.

Merton's face was solemn and said, "this wood is invulnerable."

"Invulnerable?" Li Shimin exclaimed.

"Lord Mo is joking. It's just a piece of wood. Isn't it harder than steel!" Xi Jun said sternly, looking at the carriage in front of him.

"Harder than iron, stronger than steel!" Merton humored himself.

"Merton, do you know that if you talk nonsense, it's the crime of bullying the king." Li Shimin snapped.

"General Xi has a sword in his hand, but just try." Merton said confidently.

Xi Jun, who is willing to believe that there is still wood harder than steel in the world, couldn't help looking at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded slowly. He also wanted to know whether there was such hard wood in the world.

"Your Majesty, please step back!"

After Xi Jun bought it, he slowly took out the horizontal knife, tied up the horse step, held the knife in both hands and slowly accumulated strength.

He doesn't believe that there is such hard wood in the world. For the emperor's safety, he must experiment himself, otherwise, if something happens, none of them can run away.

"Hey!"

Xi Jun bought the horizontal knife in his hand and cut it hard into the carriage. Suddenly, a sound of gold and iron came. Xi Jun bought only felt the huge rebound attack, which almost made him unable to hold the horizontal knife. He couldn't help but stagger back three steps.

"How could it be?" Xi Junmai looked at a white mark behind the carriage and was stunned.

Li Shimin also gathered together and looked at the white marks on the wood. He was surprised to grow up. You know, the horizontal knife in Xi Jun's hand is the standard weapon in the palace, and the best steel is used.

Coupled with the strength Xi Jun bought, he only cut a white mark on the wood without even breaking the skin.

"Let me come!" Li Shimin said incredulously.

Thirty feet away, Li Shimin held a strong crossbow, aimed at the back carriage of the carriage and pulled the trigger. The lethal force of the strong crossbow is the strongest at this distance.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the crossbow and arrow with a whistling sound collided with the back carriage of the carriage.

"When!"

A dull crash came, and the crossbows and arrows clattered to the ground, but they were not stuck on it.

Li Shimin put down the strong crossbow and came to the carriage. When he saw that the arrow of the crossbow had been twisted, but the board was still intact, he couldn't help praising: "it's really harder than iron and stronger than steel."

"In addition to the eight bull crossbow, Weichen really can't think of anything that can destroy this wood." Xi Jun bought this time and was completely convinced.

The eight bull crossbow is a heavy weapon in the army. It needs eight people to move. It can't appear outside the battlefield. In other words, the carriage offered by Merton has almost no weapons to threaten.

This is the most suitable carriage for the emperor.

"There are such strange trees in the world!" Li Shimin also sighed.

"This is iron birch, which is widely distributed in Koguryo. It is also distributed in the Suzhou Hangzhou generation of the Tang Dynasty. Its material is hard and sinks when it enters the water. It is even harder than steel. It is called the king of wood." Merton Lang said.
