Li Tai looked at the servants beside him and said, "Do you know what air pressure is?"
"I...I don't know."
A group of servants said tremblingly.
Li Tai raised his head proudly and said, "I know you don't understand."
A villain hurriedly came to report, "His Royal Highness, King Wei, Your Majesty is here."
When he heard that his father was coming, Li Tai frowned and said that his father should have just left court and was reviewing the memorial at this time.
After quickly adjusting his clothes and arranging his hair, Li Tai hurried to the door of the mansion.
Father was walking towards here not far from the street.
In recent days, my father rarely leaves the palace. Even if he does, it is for hunting after the autumn.
It was rare to see my father come to the mansion on his own initiative.
Li Tai stepped forward and saluted: "Father."
Li Shimin nodded and walked into the mansion, looked around and said, "What have you been doing lately?"
Li Tai whispered: "My son has been reading these days."
Li Shimin's eyes were a little disappointed.
"I heard from Cheng Qian that you have ordered people to collect a lot of miscellaneous books recently?"
"Yes, it is."
Hearing the complaint from Li Chengqian, Li Tai lowered his head with annoyance in his eyes.
Li Chengqian often did this kind of thing.
Every time he did something wrong, Li Chengqian was the first to complain to his father and mother.
Li Tai's mansion does not have many furnishings, and the mansion is not very big.
It is much worse than the mansions of those powerful and powerful officials.
It's better than ordinary people.
As the current majesty, Li Tai is also a prince, so he must set an example for his son Li Shimin and not be extravagant and wasteful.
Li Shimin said while walking in the mansion: "It's a good thing to be able to read. Your mother asked today that you haven't been to the Imperial College for a few days. If you want to read, the Imperial College has many books."
Li Tai whispered: "I just planned to go to the Imperial College."
As he said this, Li Tai became more and more angry. It was all because of Li Chengqian's complaint!
Li Shimin said in a low voice: "There are many different religions and nine schools out there. Some people can come and go, and some people are of the three religions and nine schools. I hope you can tell the difference."
Li Tai quickly said: "My father's teachings, I will keep them in mind."
Turning to face Li Tai, Li Shimin said: "If you don't live in the palace, your mother is very worried that you will follow the people of the three religions and nine streams. There are many tricks in this world to deceive people. There have been troubles as early as the Han Dynasty. I usually let you If you read more books, I hope you will understand the truth."
The more Li Tai heard these words, the more uncomfortable he became.
Li Shimin added: "Qintian Supervisor Yuan Tiangang said that you recently learned a magic skill?"
I heard from Yuan Tiangang that Li Tai had learned a magic skill before, and because Li Tai had people looking for a lot of strange miscellaneous books these days.
Of course, I am also afraid that my son will follow the example of others and become bad.
Many people are obsessed with Taoism and immortality, and in the end they end up miserable.
Li Tai is still young now and needs good discipline.
Facing his father's question, Li Tai bowed and said: "Father, what I have learned recently is not the sorcery that Taoist Yuan said."
"Not sorcery? What is that!"
Li Shimin's tone became more severe.
Li Tai saluted again and said, "Father, please watch my son and minister demonstrate."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "What? You still want to show me sorcery?"
"If my father sees it, he must also understand that this is not a witchcraft."
Looking at his son suspiciously, Li Shimin said to himself that it wouldn't hurt to take a look.
After speaking, Li Tai asked someone to bring boiled eggs and a pot.
In front of Li Shimin, Li Tai put the lit firewood into the pot.
After the firewood started burning in the pot, he peeled the hard-boiled eggs and put them on the mouth of the pot.
Li Shimin looked at the cooked eggs, and after a while without moving, he asked: "What on earth are you going to do?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cooked eggs fell into the pot.
Seeing the cooked eggs entering the pot from the spout, Li Shimin was surprised and asked: "What's going on?"
Li Tai said: "In the past few days, I also wanted to know what was going on, so I collected miscellaneous books to find the answer."
Li Shimin pointed at the pot and said again: "Isn't this witchcraft?"
Li Tai explained: "Father, anyone can do this. Father can do it, and the servants in the son's house can do it. If it is something that everyone can do, then this is still Black magic?"
There was some suspicion in my heart.
Li Shimin thought for a moment and then said to the guard beside him: "Go and try."
"Here!"
Li Tai stood aside and watched the guard try his own method.
The cooked egg still fell into the pot, no one squeezed it, let alone touched it.
Li Tai added: "Father, you might as well try it yourself."
Li Shimin, who did not believe in evil, personally tried it. After many attempts, the result was the same. The egg still fell into the pot without any external force.
It's exactly what Li Tai said.
After that, Li Shimin asked someone to replace the cooked eggs and pot.
Except for a few failures with relatively small mouths.
The other times the results were the same.
If everyone can do this kind of thing, is it still a witchcraft? Isn’t it true that everyone knows sorcery?
Li Shimin frowned and looked at the pot in front of him, "Who told you?"
Li Tai explained: "Father, do you still remember the young man who fought against the Tubo people in Qujiangchi on the Ghost Festival?"
Li Shimin thought about what happened in Qujiang Pool, but at that time his thoughts were all on Yue'er.
Li Tai added, "That person told me this riddle, and he told me the answer. This person is none other than the emperor's husband, Zhang Yang."
"Zhang Yang……"
Hearing this name, Li Shimin struggled with his thoughts and gradually remembered what happened in Qujiang Pool.
"According to Zhang Yang, the answer to this puzzle is because of air pressure, and the word air pressure is difficult to find in many classics. Erchen made some discoveries in miscellaneous books."
Li Tai said in a low voice: "Father, this air pressure seems to be the mystery between heaven and earth. Our ancestors all studied it for heaven and earth. There are endless mysteries between heaven and earth."
Li Shimin said: "Do you think this Zhang Yang is an expert?"
Li Tai replied: "I am not sure that he is an expert, but he can get a glimpse of the mysteries of heaven and earth. This person must not be simple."
"I have personally seen the battle of wits between the Tubo and Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang's math skills are very good."
"I asked someone to check him out. There is nothing special about this person."
Yue'er's husband is Zhang Yang.
How could Yue'er follow him so wholeheartedly?
Where does this Zhang Yang come from?
Li Shimin calmed down his emotions, "No matter how mysterious this matter is, you shouldn't neglect your studies. From tomorrow on, you will go to the Imperial College to study every day. Read more sages and classics, and don't read those miscellaneous books!"
After speaking, Li Shimin waved his sleeves and turned to leave.
