Li Lizhi asked, pointing to the two slender wheels in front of her.

She wasn't the only one shocked.

There are also a few people nearby.

They watched everything in front of them secretly.

One of them is Changsun Chong, and the other is Li Chengqian whose face is pockmarked.

Li Chengqian did not dare to show his true face to others. He only used a piece of cloth to cover the pockmarks on his face for fear of being seen.

A smallpox attack made him even more withdrawn.

He had been locked up in the East Palace for too long, and when he came out, he was somewhat out of touch with society.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

Changsun Chong asked with concern.

"It's okay, but the sunshine outside is a bit dazzling! Maybe it's because I haven't been out for too long."

"I actually didn't want you to come out about this today, but it happened suddenly, so..."

"Brother-in-law, it's now this time. If I don't come out, it will be wrong!"

Li Chengqian's shout made Changsun Chong feel happy.

Originally he was a cousin, but now he is called brother-in-law, which means that Changsun Chong's status has been recognized.

That's more important than anything else.

At the same time, Li Chengqian came out at the risk of being scolded by Li Er.

But as long as Li Er doesn't know, everything will be easy to handle.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise! Then what should we do next?"

"Let's take a look first and see what that guy is going to do!"

Li Chengqian licked his chapped lips and said.

He hated Li Min to the core.

Li Min let him and Changsun Chong lie down for many days. He must avenge this revenge, even if he failed several times before.

Today Li Lizhi suddenly came out to find Li Min.

Whatever he said, he would definitely intervene. Even if Li Shimin punished him, he would still take action! Don't let Li Min ruin their good deeds again!

"By the way, when will Duke Qi come out?"

Li Chengqian asked.

"My father went to see Your Majesty. He will probably be here soon."

"Very good! Let's see what Li Min is going to do then!"

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, a family came to report.

"Master, the master said he can't come!"

Changsun Chong was shocked.

Why can't you come? Isn't that what you said? Why did you change your mind again?

"Did you say anything? Didn't he go to find His Majesty?"

"I went and was scolded by His Majesty. Your Majesty asked me to reflect at home. He is not allowed to come out now!"

Changsun Chong:......

Li Chengqian:......

They didn't expect how it would turn out like this. What was originally planned is now like this, which is very surprising!

"how so?"

Changsun Chong was puzzled.

Li Chengqian suddenly said: "I heard that my father didn't come home last night, and he was acting weird when he came back in the morning! This thing is a bit weird, could it be related to that guy?"

This is all they can think of.

"I think 80% of the time it is, so what should we do now? Wait or go back?"

"What should we do? Keep an eye on that guy, I want to see what he will do! We really want to think of a way to deal with him!"

Li Chengqian said bitterly.

So, their eyes returned to the hall again.

At this time, Li Lizhi was pointing at two slender wheel-like things.

Li Min shrugged.

It seems that something that was still under research needs to be known to others in advance.

"Sixth brother, what is that?"

Seeing that Li Min didn't respond, Li Lizhi asked again.

"this one?"

"Yes, these two circle-like things look so strange. How can there be so many poles connected together? Isn't this shape too strange? People often say that you have many novel things here. I saw them today. Sure enough."

Many doubts flashed through her mind.

She asked questions one after another.

Li Min didn't know where to reply.

Finally he said: "Sister, can you stop for a moment and listen to me?"

There were so many questions, and he didn't know which one to answer.

"Oh? Sorry, I was so surprised! You say it, you say it! I listen!"

Li Min walked to the two slender wheels and helped them up.

"It's called a bicycle!"

This was what he and Ji Ruxue were tinkering with just now.

During this period of time, Li Min has been studying bicycles. This bicycle looks similar to the bicycle of the future. However, there is no rubber now, so the tires are made of other materials. The durability needs to be improved.

But this is enough, after all, it is the first bicycle.

"A bicycle? A car that can move on its own?"

This may be people's first reaction.

That's literally what it means.

"Yes, not entirely!"

"what is that?"

Li Lizhi's strong desire for knowledge made her want to know what a bicycle was.

What is the use?

"Bicycle, you can understand the word "zi" as oneself, oneself, then it is a vehicle that one controls and makes it move. This requires a person to ride on it, like here there is a cushion."

Li Min tried his best to organize the vocabulary and try his best to let Li Lizhi understand what a bicycle is.

"Oh? Is there any car in this world that can move without being pulled by horses or oxen?"

Li Lizhi seemed to understand.

In her knowledge, there is no such thing.

Then he asked:

"But it only has two wheels. Does it need to be supported by the feet to move? Like a horse-drawn cart?"

A horse-drawn cart also has two wheels, but its wheels are on the left and right, while the wheels of a bicycle are on the front and rear.

This is very different.

In Li Lizhi's understanding, this is the case.

In fact, this was indeed the case when the bicycle was first invented.

The same is true for the small bicycles that children will ride in the future. They will be pedaled with both feet to make them move.

But Li Min's car is different. It has pedals and needs to be ridden with feet.

"No, no, no, it doesn't have to be like this. The human body does not need to touch the ground."

"You don't have to touch the ground? Then you won't fall?"

Li Lizhi has a strong thirst for knowledge and is even more curious.

Li Min knew that if he continued to explain it like this, he might not be able to explain it clearly.

So he said: "Let me test it for you! This will make it clearest!"

"That's great, let's try it outside!?"

Li Lizhi said this.

Li Min thought for a while. If he wanted to promote bicycles in the future, he would have to let everyone know about it, so going outside the Shengtang Group was a very good opportunity.

"Okay, just take a look and I'll try it for you!"

Li Min then pushed the bicycle out.

Xue Rengui naturally followed. He was used to Li Min's behavior, and he was the first to know about the things he had done recently.

As for the people outside, who were queuing up to buy things, they were all shocked when they saw Li Min launching such a thing.

At the same time, there were Chang Sun Chong and Li Chengqian. They were observing in the dark and did not want Li Min to come out directly. He also pushed his bicycle out.

"What the hell is that!"

Li Chengqian murmured.
