Empress Changsun’s imperial edict was issued very quickly. At noon the next day, the eunuch who announced the imperial edict came to his house and a thin piece of yellow silk changed Hou Xuanxuan’s identity.

When the news spreads, there are those who envy them, those who are jealous, and those who are thrilled and those who are happy about disasters.

In the eyes of those who don’t know, the identity of the empress’s adopted daughter represents a step forward. In the past, the identity of the daughter of a duke, Hou Xuanxuan was rampant in Chang'an. Now that she has another layer of such an identity, wouldn’t it be even worse?

In the eyes of insiders, the identity of the empress's adopted daughter is undoubtedly a shackle. If Hou Xuanxuan dares to do anything like before, she will definitely sue her every time if she goes to the empress to complain.

According to a servant who did not want to be named, after receiving the imperial edict, the eldest lady of the Hou family had not left the room for several days except to go to the palace to thank him.

Li Hao didn't know the news that it was almost popular in Chang'an. On the day of the incident, he was taking Li Xueyan who had rushed to meet up to go to the Technical College.

Along the way, the prince of Wei's face wrinkled like a bun, as if someone owed him a lot of money and refused to pay it back.

Seeing that he didn't say anything or disturb him, Li Xueyan just looked out the window and was stunned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Until the carriage stopped, Chen Meng's voice came from outside: "Young Master, we are here."

"Well, so soon." Li Hao, who had come back to his senses, then realized that he seemed to have neglected the beauty along the way, and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I just thought about things and got distracted, Xueyan, don't be surprised."

Li Xueyan shook her head, still worried: "It's okay, I'm just thinking about something."

If it were normal, Li Hao would have noticed the difference between Li Xueyan, but he had too many things in the past few days after he came back. I remember that he devoted most of his energy to the technical college, and ignored the girl's feelings.

While speaking, Chen Meng had arranged for someone to lift the wheelchair hanging behind the carriage, helped Li Hao sit on it, pushed it himself, and walked towards the end of the cement road not far away.

At the end of the road is a gray wall that is as high as two meters high. There is a small semi-open tower every ten meters above, and you can vaguely see the dark cannons in the tower.

Apart from those towers, the eight-ox crossbows that are not common on weekdays can be seen almost everywhere on the walls. On the edge of each eight-ox crossbow, there are more than ten armored imperial guards, with swords drawn out, bows wound, and alertness.

Below the gray wall is a gate several feet wide. Above the gate are six large characters from the Tang Dynasty Technical College. On each side are twenty imperial guards with muskets, with straight bodies and bright eyes.

"Is this the Tang Dynasty Technical College famous in Chang'an?" Looking at the heavily guarded building in front of him, Li Xueyan sighed astonished: "Even the palace is not as alert as this."

Li Hao smiled and said, "It's different. The imperial guards guard the emperor, and the imperial guards guard the future here."

"The future..." Li Xueyan seemed to understand something. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Li Hao didn't say anything. He was about to ask again, and the old Taoist priests waiting at the door had already greeted him.

The leader had a rosy face and was majestic. He bowed to Li Hao and Li Xueyan and said, "I have seen the princess and the princess."

Li Xueyan, who saw the visitor clearly, showed a surprised expression and hurriedly replied: "Master Yuan doesn't have to be too polite. Xueyan has seen Master Yuan."

"Hey, Xueyan knows Taoist Yuan?" Li Hao asked in surprise.

"Of course, no one knows the name of Taoist Yuan's divine calculation in Chang'an City. Before that, there was a lot of wonders about why he had not seen Taoist Yuan's words for a long time, but he didn't expect Taoist Yuan to settle down here." Li Xueyan didn't expect to see Yuan Tiangang here, with an extremely excited tone, and her appearance looked quite like a star-chasing family in later generations.

"The princess is too much." Yuan Tiangang was kind-hearted, but his expression seemed very helpful. He glanced at Li Hao and said, "Justice's actions were fine just now. I don't know why I had to sit on this chair with wheels?"

Not to mention Yuan Tiangang, even the old Taoists following him were confused.

They just watched Li Hao get off the carriage with his own eyes, and his legs were not sure how flexible they were.

"Because I'm lazy." Li Hao said perfunctorily, obviously not planning to explain to Yuan Tiangang why he wanted to sit on this thing.

Yuan Tiangang was speechless by Li Hao and smiled embarrassedly, "It's me who made a mistake."

However, Li Xueyan couldn't stand it and glanced at Li Hao and said, "Dejian, Taoist Master Yuan is a master of Taoism, how could you be so rude?"

"Irregular?!" Li Hao suddenly took a deep breath and smacked his lips and said, "Old Yuan, do you think this prince is rude?"

"Uh..., no, no." Yuan Tiangang shook his head quickly and said with a smile: "The prince is magnanimous and rare in the world."

Hey? Is this the proud Taoist Yuan that used to be?

Looking at the two people singing like double acts in front of him, Li Xueyan felt that her mind was not big enough.

In my memory, this Taoist priest didn't even give his father Li Daozong's face, so why did he smile so much in front of Li Hao... Uh, slutty, yes, just slutty.

Could there be any unknown secret here? Her beautiful eyes swept across Li Hao and Yuan Tiangang. Li Xueyan always felt that there seemed to be some ulterior motive between these two people.

Li Hao nodded as if he was smiling, raised his hand and pointed to the door not far away: "Let's go, let's talk about it later, it's too cold outside."

"Yes, yes, please, the prince!" Yuan Tiangang was granted a general amnesty, squeezed away Chen Meng and personally pushed Li Hao into the famous Tang Dynasty Technical College in Chang'an. Behind him, all the others were stopped.

As it penetrated into it little by little, the Technical College unveiled the mysterious veil in front of Li Xueyan.

There is a three-meter-wide cement road inside the high wall. Large sycamore trees are planted on both sides of the road. Every other section of the main road, a fork will appear. The intersection is a road sign for indicating the direction.

Looking into the distance along the paths, you can see some garden landscapes, artificial lakes, or rockery pavilions. Beneath the cliffs of the green pines and cypresses, three-story buildings with the same standard stand among them.

The First Hospital of Machinery, Second Hospital of Machinery, Chemical Engineering, Biological Engineering, Medical School... Li Xueyan was dazzled by various departments along the way, and her curiosity about the Technical School became strong.

When passing the first intersection, Li Hao and others turned left and walked into the path, passing through a forest of arrows and bamboos, and entering a small building with the First Hospital of Machinery.

Li Xueyan originally thought that there would be rooms after rooms in the small building, but after entering the gate, the spacious space inside completely changed her mind, and her attention was also attracted by the five uniquely shaped machines that were placed together.

"Is this the spinning machine I want? Why are there only four spindles?" Li Hao was too lazy to install it anymore, so he stood up from the chair and came to the machines and asked while looking at it.

The spinning machine was imitated by Li Hao based on the structure of the Jenny spinning machine in memory. Originally, the drawings he gave Yuan Tiangang could spin ten spindles at the same time, but unexpectedly, the real thing could only spin four.

Yuan Tiangang, who was questioned, smiled bitterly: "Criminal, I don't want to build a ten-spinned yarn machine. It's really because you're too sharp, it hurts the world. Old Taoist... dare not."

"What does it mean?" Li Hao frowned.

Yuan Tiangang said: "Criminal, according to the old Taoist, if you produce this product, you will definitely not sell it very cheaply, right?"

"Old Yuan, even if I want to sell it cheaply, can you agree?" Li Haoyi asked back with some intent.

"No, I still expect this thing to be sold at a good price to fill the gap." Yuan Tiangang said with a sad face: "But I have tried this thing, and only one can match the workload of five to six ordinary women in the past. If you follow your ten-point requirement, I am afraid that it will match the workload of sixteen or seven ordinary women.

But have you ever thought about this thing, only one unit can support more than ten people. If you sell too much, the market will inevitably be filled with a lot of yarn in a short period of time, which will eventually lead to a drop in the price of yarn. For those big merchants, it may not be a big deal, but for those spinners with small businesses, it will be a disaster."

"Haha, I didn't expect that Old Yuan, you actually understand the principle of hurting farmers by rice." Li Hao patted Yuan Tiangang's shoulder unexpectedly, and the meaning of a man who could teach him was in it, but the next moment, the topic suddenly changed: "But who told you that I was going to sell this thing to the merchants of the Tang Dynasty."

Yuan Tiangang, who was originally immersed in compassion, suddenly lost his mind: "Ah? No, it's not sold to the Tang Dynasty merchants..."

Li Hao said depressedly: "Nonsense, I read history books less often. Don't you know that rice is cheap and hurt farmers. How could you deliberately harm my own people in the Tang Dynasty? You... You said you did this and asked me to tell you what you are good about."

Yuan Tiangang was stunned when he heard Li Hao say this and stammered: "Then, is it still time to change it now?"

"How could it be too late? The exhibition will be open in two days. Don't tell me that you can get ten standard spinning machines in two days. If you can get it out, we will not blame the past."

Yuan Tiangang stood there speechlessly. Not to mention ten units in two days, even if he made one, he would be forced to make one.

Li Xueyan couldn't bear it, so she came up and pulled Li Hao aside, whispered: "Dejian, Taoist Yuan is a celebrity in Chang'an. If you bully him like this, it will probably affect your reputation."

"Oh, my little aunt, where did you tell me that I was bullying him?" Li Hao scratched his head in annoyance and said in pain: "It took me 500,000 yuan in half a year to die, and I can't say a few words to him."

"What, what? 500,000 coins!" Li Xueyan almost jumped up in shock, and looked at Yuan Tiangang with a look no longer as respect as before, and was replaced by anger.

That's 500,000 yuan. It's been spent in half a year. I don't feel sorry if I don't spend my own money, right? I originally thought that Li Hao always talked too much to Yuan Tiangang's cold words. Now, looking back, this wood has a really good temper. If I had to give him a discount, he would have to give up his legs.

Yuan Tiangang was also a little embarrassed and smiled embarrassedly: "Princess, don't you blame me, I didn't stop this once I started to study it? No, I was accidentally..."

Although he has been huddling in the Technical College for research, the news is not very closed. He knows very clearly about Li Er's marriage to Li Xueyan and Li Hao. At the same time, he also knows that he spent 500,000 yuan on Li Hao, which is actually no difference between spending 500,000 yuan on Li Xueyan.

Li Hao sighed, shook his head slightly at Li Xueyan, indicating that she didn't have to do this, and turned to Yuan Tiangang and said sincerely: "Old Yuan, I have a responsibility for this matter. It's because I don't care enough about the college and have not made a budget in advance. Don't worry, this will never happen in the future."

Seeing Li Hao like this, Yuan Tiangang was quite surprised.

According to his own ideas, let alone Li Hao's cold words to him, he would admit that he could even slap him twice. Even if he was asked to pay some of the funds, he would not hesitate, as long as he did not let him leave the academy.

After all, what the academy is currently studying is so important, it is difficult for him to let go if he wants to.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tiangang also looked upright and gritted his teeth to put some blood on his face: "Criminal, I... "

Li Hao interrupted him with a word and said proudly: "Old Yuan, don't talk about anything else. This matter is indeed wrong with me. I underestimated the investment in research. If you spend 500,000 yuan, you will spend it. At worst, let's start over."

"Look, you can do it." Li Xueyan regarded herself as a member of the Li family from the day when the marriage was announced in the palace. At this time, when Li Hao made a bold statement, he gave him a fierce look, but he didn't say anything more.

It is said that if you marry a chicken, you will follow the chicken, and if you marry a dog, you will follow the dog. When you encounter such a thing that is not short of money, what can she say? You must always give him some face in front of outsiders.

Yuan Tiangang thought Li Hao was going to be a big shot in front of his future wife, and smiled bitterly: "I will not hide it from the prince. I have accumulated some savings over the years. If the prince doesn't dislike it, I can still take out 30,000 or 50,000 yuan."

"What can I do with 3,000 yuan? You should keep this little money, Old Yuan, I don't like it." Taking a deep breath, Li Hao continued: "But after this lesson, we can't do it in the future. We must distinguish the primary and secondary research, and we must have a strategy. How much funds are needed for each project must be coordinated. We cannot make big pot meals. Whoever produces the results will get more funds. If we don't produce results, we will naturally have to deduct funds. This old Yuan will turn around and take out the charter."

Yuan Tiangang laughed and said, "No problem. The prince's words really touched the heart of my heart. I used to be obsessed with research. Even if I think something is wrong, I can't summarize it. Now, with the prince to check it, it can really make the master more relaxed."

This is not a Taoist priest. If he changed into a white coat, it would seem that there would be no difference from later scientists.

Staring at the passionate old Taoist, Li Hao felt his spine was chilling. He was a good fortune teller, and he was turned into a scientific researcher by himself. I don’t know what to do in the future.
