The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

There are many officials in the Artisan Supervisor, and there are so many nobles in the palace. The tools used in daily life, including repairing palaces or building new palaces, are all the responsibilities of the Artisan Supervisor.

Although there are many people working in the manor now, it does not mean that there are no more people in the Artisan Supervisor left in Chang'an City.

Daily affairs in the palace must also be maintained.

"Huairen, tell me, where do all these novel ideas of yours come from?" Yan Lide looked at Li Fu curiously.

To build such a polo field, and to hold the Chang'an Cup competition, let those polo teams compete for the trophy, and they have to rack their brains for this competition.

After all, when it comes to winning or losing, no one will be willing to be left behind.

"During the Dragon Boat Festival, I watched a polo match in the palace. I realized that people in our Tang Dynasty are so enthusiastic about this thing. Since they like this sport, why not hold a formal competition? There was no such formal and large-scale competition in the past, but there will be in the future.

And this matter is led by the emperor, and there are many benefits.

The emperor is in Da'an Palace all day long. Even if there are many delicious and fun things, he will feel bored after a long time. The main thing is to find something to relieve the boredom of the emperor.

The Chang'an Cup competition, with the emperor in charge, is also a sport. The royal family likes it, the dignitaries like it, and even the ordinary people like it. It is fun to share with the people.

While having fun, it can also bring certain benefits to the palace. Isn't it wonderful."

After listening to this, Yan Lide thought about it.

It is really the case. According to the Chang'an Cup competition planned by King Jingyang, it will really set off a new round of polo craze in Chang'an City.

This will be recorded in the history books in the future. In the second half of the second year of Zhenguan, the royal family and the people enjoyed themselves together, and both culture and sports flourished...

This thing, at present, seems to be a hundred benefits without any harm.

"The trophy of Chang'an Cup should also be designed carefully." Li Fu said: "Do you have a sketch now?"

"Yes, it is designed according to what you said, Huairen."

Yan Lide found another drawing and unfolded it in front of Li Fu.

"I dare not make this thing too big. If it is too big and made of gold, ordinary people can't even hold it."

"Gold plating." Li Fu said: "Surface gold plating is enough. The texture of gold is too soft. This trophy still needs to pursue a little hardness."

First, it saves costs, and second, the weight design should be more reasonable. It is completely pure gold. Not to mention how much weight it will weigh. What should we do if it is deformed after a long time after casting?

The trophy was originally round, but after a few years, it became an oval.

"That's fine." Yan Lide nodded in response.

From a technical point of view, there is no problem at all.

At the beginning, Yan Lide also thought that such a large trophy must not be made of solid gold. If not, it can be twisted into gold wire, woven with gold wire, and then inlaid with gems.

However, in this way, the trophy looks good, but as King Jingyang said, the hardness is not good. If it is squeezed by external force, it is very easy to deform.

If it is gold-plated, the problem can be solved.

"Let's make the trophy like this. You did a good job. It's inlaid with a circle of gems. After all, it's a valuable thing. Not using pure gold has already lowered its value. The base should be convenient for engraving the name of the winning team every year." Li Fu said, "I don't know much about materials. You can decide. I'll leave this matter to you. When you make this trophy later, just give it to me. I'll take it to Da'an Palace to show it to the emperor. I can report it after he sees it. Don't fool around."

"Okay, the craftsman supervisor will do the job. Don't worry. It is a matter of making these things in the palace. "There is no other problem in terms of craftsmanship. This Zhuangzi tossed, and I didn't know how many years I had to toss. "" You have guess. "Li Fu laughed. Then, Li Fu took a document from his arms and gave it to Yan Lide. Looking at the eyes "," come over. In the future, the next door Zhuangzi is merged into Zhuangzi here.I plan to build a temporary palace next to the academy in a part of the area. "Li Fu said: "For the temporary palace of the emperor, the requirements are not too many, just warm in winter and cool in summer, convenient and comfortable to live in."

If you want to say that it is magnificent and exquisite, it is Da'an Palace.

The two sides are not far away, and one Da'an Palace is enough for such a palace.

Jingyang County is a palace for Li Yuan to practice, and what is needed is an ecological and livable place.

And it is close to the academy. Who are the people in the academy?

There are students inside, all young students. In a big way, they are the future of the empire.

The old man is next to the academy for a lively atmosphere. When he is free, he will go to the academy for a stroll, take a look at the scenery, and watch the children studying. Even if he does nothing, he looks happy.

Old people are afraid of loneliness when they are old.

Li Fu wants to drive away this loneliness for Li Yuan.

There are many people in Da'an Palace, but most of them are palace maids and eunuchs, as well as the concubines of the retired emperor. They usually serve the retired emperor with trepidation. They are old and have no vitality. If you stay in that place for a long time, it is easy to get bored.

"Huairen's filial piety to the retired emperor is really touching. "Yan Lide bowed in admiration.

The two met each other when they were renovating the Da'an Palace. At that time, because they worked together, they had more contact and communication, and later they became friends like they are now.

From the beginning of renovating the Da'an Palace, to presenting some entertainment items to the emperor, and giving money to the emperor.

All these things show the filial piety of King Jingyang to the emperor.

It is no wonder that the emperor likes King Jingyang. Who would not like such a filial and thoughtful younger generation for the elders?

"For the elderly, the important thing is to make him happy." Li Fu said: "He is so old, since he has the conditions, he should think more about him. Without the emperor, there would be no Li Fu today."
