    Chapter 241: [Treasure Offering]

    "What's this called a stirrup?" Lao Li asked, holding two iron buckles.

    Standing under Lao Li, Shuai Guo nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Father."

    "After using him, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry can be increased?" Lao Li didn't quite believe it. The combat effectiveness of a cavalry is there, it is trained bit by bit, and it can be miraculously improved with an iron buckle!

    "Father, you can't be wrong. You haven't been to the recent polo match. Yesterday, the Cheng family team and Uncle Li's team both wore these stirrups, so the game was more intense than on the battlefield.  It's only strong but not weak. If you see it, you won't doubt the usefulness of this stirrup." Shuaiguo said.

    Lao Li looked at it and still didn't believe it. Then he put the stirrup aside and said, "Okay, my father will find a few cavalry to give it a try in his free time. Now we have to deal with government affairs, so you can go down first."

    Shuaiguo was stunned for a moment, he came with full enthusiasm, and dad just sent me away like this?

    "But the world is huge, the father is the biggest, and the emperor is also the biggest. This old Li only has two things, so the handsome guy can't say anything more, so he has to go down aggrievedly.

    "Your Majesty, Duke Lu wants to see you, and Duke Wei wants to see you. They said they would like to present treasures to Your Majesty." A eunuch came in and said when Shuaiguo was about to leave.

    Lao Li said: "Let them come in."

    As soon as the eunuch left, Cheng Yaksha and Li Jing walked in. Shuai Guo had no chance to say anything he wanted to leave.

    Cheng Yaksha got straight to the point and first thanked Lao Li Yingming and Shenwu for freeing his family from their sins.  Then, in order to thank His Majesty, he spent all night researching and inventing something that could triple the combat effectiveness of cavalry. It had been recognized by the God of War Li Jing and was specially presented to His Majesty.

    Cheng Yaksha is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He invented a fighting tool that completely convinced Lao Li.  With the recognition of the military god-level Li Jing as his brother, Lao Li became even more interested in Cheng Yaksha's invention.

    "Cheng Aiqing, show me your invention quickly!" Lao Li said enthusiastically.

    This passion.  One is the expectation for the invented product, and the other is winning people's hearts.

    The Cheng family has just been released from house arrest, and Lao Li needs to find some way to win over Lao Cheng.  This is not only for the Cheng family, but also for other ministers. It should not make people feel cold.

    Cheng Yaksha took a stirrup, walked towards Lao Li, and handed it to Lao Li.

    When Lao Li took the stirrup, he was dumbfounded at the time. He tilted his head and looked at the other pair of stirrups on the table, with a rich expression on his face.

    Cheng Yaksha followed Lao Li's gaze and saw the stirrups, and his expression changed.

    He immediately thought that someone had gotten there first.  His first suspicion was that he was an old guy like Li Jing, and then he thought about it. Although the old guy was a bit shady, he would tell himself afterwards if he wanted to take credit, and it was impossible for him to accompany him to present the treasure now.  So he denied Li Jing, an old guy.

    Then he thought of Li Chengqian. Could it be that that fool thought of the benefits of this stirrup and dedicated it to his father?

    possible.

    Cheng Yaksha¡¯s face straightened, he laughed, and said, ¡°Why does your Majesty have a pair of fake stirrups here?¡±

    "Fake?" Lao Li was stunned, looking at Cheng Yaksha's face and couldn't help but twitching the corners of his eyes.

    Cheng Yaksha¡¯s expression did not change.  "Yes, your majesty is wise and powerful. You will understand at a glance that this stirrup is obviously made of inferior iron, and it is also made so fancy that it is obviously impractical. How can the original stirrup like mine, Old Cheng, be practical and strong! I don't know.  Who gave this stirrup to His Majesty? They are obviously playing tricks on His Majesty!"

    "This is a gift from my son Li Ke." Lao Li said with a twitch of the corner of his mouth.

    "When most people heard that the treasure was presented by the emperor's favorite son, they immediately admitted their mistake and no longer dared to compete for the credit for the treasure.  But who is Cheng Yaksha? He is a tough guy with Yaksha at the end of his surname. Can he be viewed with ordinary people's thinking? No.

    He turned around suddenly and looked at Handsome Pot.  Shuaiguo was startled when he saw him. Before Cheng Yaksha could say anything, he was so frightened that he asked, "What are you going to do?"

    "I have something to ask His Highness the King of Wu. You didn't invent the stirrup, right?" Cheng Yaksha bared his teeth and asked.

    Cheng Yaksha was asking a high question. He did not say whether Shuaiguo was a copycat of his, but asked whether he invented it himself.  They all know that this thing was invented by Li Chengqian, so of course it was not invented by Shuai Guo.

    Shuai Guo shook his head and said honestly: "I didn't invent it."

    "Haha, how could King Wu present something invented by others to His Majesty? This is a dishonest act!" Cheng Yaksha shook his head in disappointment as he spoke, pretending to hate iron but not steel.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Her muscles are also twitching. If you compare the way the old **** twitches the corner of her mouth with him, you will find that the two father and son look very similar.

    After Cheng Yaksha defeated Shuai Guo, he turned around happily and said to Lao Li: "Your Majesty, you also heard that the stirrup brought by His Highness King Wu was invented by others. In fact, it was invented by me. After my invention  I will give it to my little girl to use on the polo ball, and as soon as I can come to see Your Majesty, I will give it to Your Majesty the stirrups!"

    Lao Li suppressed the strong emotion of beating Cheng Yaksha and said: "Cheng Aiqing is dedicated to serving the country and the army. When he was wronged, he could still think of increasing the combat effectiveness of the cavalry. It is it is" Lao Li was a little disgusted and said  Can't go down anymore.

    After all, Li Jing has seen a lot of dead people and killed a lot of people, so his mental endurance is stronger.  He is also a man who is loyal to the emperor and protects his master. At this time, he stood up bravely and took over what Lao Li said to prevent Lao Li from being embarrassed: "Knowing integrity, being courageous, resourceful, and wise, like me, I can't invent this."  Stirrups, I admire you!"

    "Lao Li swallowed his saliva and said: "Yes, yes. I should reward Cheng Aiqing!"

    Then Lao Li blurted out that he rewarded Cheng Yaksha with many things, including cloth, silver and fields!

    "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Concubine Kong want to see each other." A eunuch came in.  explain.

    Hearing the name His Highness the Crown Prince, the expressions of everyone present changed.

    "Shuai Guo, Cheng Yaksha and Li Jing both know that the stirrup was invented by Li Chengqian. If Li Chengqian comes now, it will be wonderful!

    Lao Li was not a man for nothing. He noticed the faces of a few people and understood a little bit. He snorted and sneered twice, and said: "Invite them in."

    Li Chengqian followed classmate Kong Yingda into the Manna Hall. Seeing so many people there, including Cheng Yaksha, he couldn't help but be startled. He waved hello to a few people, and then said to Lao Li: "Father, Kong and I are here."  Master wants to compile a pinyin dictionary, so I came here to ask Father to organize manpower and jointly compile it Uh, Father, why are there two pairs of stirrups on your table?"

    Li Chengqian was mid-sentence when he suddenly saw the stirrups. He was startled, stopped talking, and asked.

    Apologize to my friends who subscribed, because I just learned this morning that stirrups were invented in the Han Dynasty and became popular in the Tang Dynasty.  And horseshoes are good news for cavalry.  Thanks to Brother Liang Baiwu for the reminder.  I had previously read that horseshoes could be invented in the Tang Dynasty, but I preconceived that stirrups might not have been invented yet, so I made mistakes in these chapters.

    These chapters can¡¯t be changed, so I¡¯ll just write them down and treat them as parallel spaces. Thank you very much.

    I originally came here to apologize to everyone, I shouldn¡¯t have pushed it, but I made a promise to a brother this morning, so I had to lose my character again. After apologizing, I will recommend my brother¡¯s novel: "Cultivation of Gods and Destiny".
