    "For heating? Are you sure?"

    However, after listening to Li Chengqian¡¯s introduction, Li Shimin really couldn¡¯t believe it.  He couldn't believe that Li Feng was making such a big show of it just for heating.  You know, these things are all known by Iron Sheet, and they are extremely valuable.

    However, he soon felt relieved.  His fourth brother was so imaginative in what he did.  Just like last time, spending so much money to build iron pipes that cost more than this is not just for building a hut.  For this reason, he secretly cursed Li Feng as a prodigal son.  I thought, wouldn¡¯t it be better to donate the money to the national treasury?  However, he only dared to think about it, and he would never say that to Li Feng.

    "Well, you mean this stove can burn what, coal?"

    However, Li Shimin soon discovered that something was wrong.  This stove can actually burn coal.  Then this is good stuff.  He knew the price of coal very well. It was dug layer by layer from the ground. The price was much lower than that of firewood, let alone charcoal.  If it weren't for transportation issues, the cost would be negligible.

    At first, Li Shimin paid attention to the coal, but after using it, he realized that it was not very useful.  As for why it is difficult to use, of course it is because it is difficult to burn and the flame is not strong enough.  It seems to be OK for boiling water, but it will never work if it is used for cooking.  As for the unpleasant smell caused by the burning, Li Shimin simply ignored it.  In his opinion, this is not a problem at all.  As long as you can save money, just be patient.

    Now that he heard that Li Feng had made the stove, his eyes immediately lit up.

    If this can really solve the problem just mentioned, then this coal will be of great use.  And what comes next, needless to say, is money rolling in.

    "Come on, come and find some coal, go quickly"

    Li Shimin is so excited that he wants to jump.  Because he was eager to know how effective the stove was, so he gave a loud order to the chamberlain beside him.

    "Father, no need. Along with the stove, Erchen also brought some coal. We can try this stove now. However, there should be no problem. Erchen has already seen it at my fourth uncle's place.  , the fire produced by this stove is very strong.¡±

    Hearing Li Shimin ask someone to get coal, Li Chengqian immediately spoke up.  Because the prince just didn't explain clearly what he was asked to bring, so.  Along with the stove, he not only brought some pipes, but also some coal, and it was just like what he saw at Li Feng's house.  It's broken.

    "Okay, okay. Haha, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and light the fire."

    Li Shimin laughed even more when he heard that Li Chengqian was even prepared for this.  Especially after hearing Li Chengqian say that the flames were very strong, he felt even more excited.  However, as the saying goes, seeing is believing, he still wanted to see the effect with his own eyes, so he quickly ordered his servants to live.

    "Father, how about let's go out and try it outside the palace. When the coal is burned, the smell of smoke is a bit overwhelming"

    "No, no, just try it here. What's the big deal if there's a little smell?"

    Originally, Li Chengqian wanted to persuade Li Shimin to go outside the palace, because he had just tried the smell of burning coal, and it was indeed not very pleasant and very choking.  However, Li Shimin didn't care about this at all, maybe because he couldn't wait.

    Since the emperor said so, of course no one would object.  Soon, pieces of coal were put into the stove, and a fire started.  Perhaps it was because there were too many coals. Not long after, flames began to float above the stove.  You can feel the steaming heat even from a distance.

    Of course, what followed was a very pungent smell that began to spread, causing everyone to frown.  However, seeing the emperor staring at the stove, everyone could only endure it.  Even the emperor didn't mind the pungent smell, but the current people disliked it. Isn't this looking for death?

    Indeed, Li Shimin didn't seem to dislike the pungent smell at all, but more like he didn't smell it at all.  Not only did he not run away, he ran directly to the stove, stared at the stove closely, and then reached out his hand above the flames.  However, he was quickly roasted and shrank back.

    "Haha Good stuff, really good stuff. I didn't expect that a small stove could actually solve all the big problems in my mind. Not bad, not bad, really good. This flame is definitely not as good as firewood.  How much is the difference? Use ???Cooking should be no problem¡±

    After being burned, Li Shimin didn't seem to be depressed at all. Instead, he burst out laughing.

    However, if Li Feng were here and heard Li Shimin's words, he would definitely despise Li Shimin.  I don¡¯t even think about how many coals are put in the stove now, how can the flames be strong?  In exchange for this, in future generations, if you have the money for this furnace of coal, you might as well just use gas or electricity.

    "Well, the prince has made a great contribution this time. Well, the smell is indeed not very good. Prince, you are here just now, so you can help me give me some guidance. Anyway, the things have been made, so there is no need to use them.  It's a waste, just take these things to your mother and let the servants install them in the Lizheng Palace. Your mother is not in good health and is afraid of the cold."

    Li Shimin was in a good mood now. Looking at these things in front of him, he gave orders to Li Chengqian.

    "I would like to inform my father that the queen mother's servants have been prepared for a long time. Now we have sent people to install them. Otherwise, these servants should be installed in the Ganlu Palace. Seeing that the weather is getting colder, we have to install these  Something needs to be warmer.¡±

    Hearing what Li Shimin said, an unnatural look suddenly appeared on Li Chengqian's face.  Indeed, Empress Changsun had already arranged for people to install it before Li Chengqian went out.  However, Li Shimin was not within the scope of Li Chengqian's preparations.

    No matter what the reason is, it seems that Li Chengqian is somewhat partial to others.  But now, the emperor actually asked him to put these things in the Lizheng Hall instead of the Ganlu Hall, which made Li Chengqian feel even more ashamed.

    "Haha, okay, you'd better be filial, your mother's love for you is not in vain. Well, since your mother is already doing it, let's get these things to Tai Chi Hall. Many old ministers are not in good health.  Okay, I'm afraid of the cold. This morning is long, so everyone can stay warm."

    Seeing Li Chengqian¡¯s strange expression, Li Shimin didn¡¯t feel unhappy at all. Instead, he nodded to Li Chengqian with a smile.  Then, he asked Li Chengqian to install the earth heater in Tai Chi Hall.

    "This I will accept my order."

    Li Chengqian originally wanted to say something else, but after seeing the unquestionable expression on Li Shimin's face, he could only accept the order happily.  He knew very well Li Shimin's temperament, and he was absolutely sure of it.

    "Gan'er, although my father is the king of a country, but because of this, many things, especially many small things, must be done with caution. The King of Chu loves a thin waist, and everyone in the world is starving to death. You can learn from the past and learn from the future.  Hey forget it, forget it, go and do your work."

    Seeing Li Chengqian¡¯s hesitant expression, Li Shimin originally wanted to say something, but after saying a few words, he stopped. Then, he waved his hand for Li Chengqian to retreat.

    Li Shimin's behavior made Li Chengqian stunned for a while, but he quickly retreated.  He is not a stupid person, of course he understands what Li Shimin said.  However, he didn't take it seriously.  Li Chengqian knew that his heart was not that big.

    ¡°Compared with being an emperor, where he had to be cautious and cautious in everything he did, he would rather live a carefree life like his fourth uncle.  Rights are not what he yearns for, he yearns more for a life of freedom.

    He believed that if it were another emperor's younger brother who was interested, he would definitely not act in such a violent way in his own palace.  This will undoubtedly have a very bad impact on oneself and give outsiders the impression of being extravagant and wasteful and only seeking pleasure.  Even if they want to do it, they will only do it secretly at best.

    "Haha, no matter what, other people want to do whatever they want. I'm not doing it with money from the treasury. Just like my fourth uncle said, as long as it doesn't affect others, I can live however I want."

    Suddenly, Li Chengqian's face changed from the heaviness just now and became extremely relaxed.

    However, the only thing that he couldn't figure out was why his father didn't scold him as harshly as before.  In the past, a lesson would have been inevitable.  Then, without a doubt, I asked myself to go back and dismantle all those things.

    If you don¡¯t understand something, don¡¯t think about it. This is Li Feng¡¯s consistent style.  Similarly, after hanging out with Li Feng for a long time, Li Chengqian was also infected with this style of behavior.  Therefore, I only wondered about it for a while, and then I didn't take it to heart anymore.  Instead, he rushed to Tai Chi Hall and prepared to complete the task assigned by Li Shimin.

    Actually, Li Chengqian didn't know that the reason for this was because Li Shimin's attitude had relaxed.

    People often say that character determines destiny, and this is not true at all.  During this period of time, Li Shimin has been observing Li Chengqian's every move.  Because ???Observing with purpose, Li Shimin quickly discovered many problems.

    Let¡¯s not talk about anything else for now, let¡¯s talk about Li Chengqian¡¯s character.  There are indeed many things that do not meet the most basic requirements for being an emperor.

    ¡° However, this kind of thing is too big after all, and Li Shimin cannot make any decision in a short while.  Besides, after putting so much effort into Li Chengqian, he was not willing to give up like this.

    However, there is no other way now, and it can be said that there is no clue at all. Therefore, the only thing that can be done is to wait and see what happens.
