Chapter 6 Missed Opportunity of Li Chengqian

　　Hearing Li Chengqian call himself, Zhang Gao did not even think, according to Li Chengqian’s words to do, as to why do so, before maybe he will ask, but from the last time, he does not intend to ask, asked the crown prince will not say, but also let the crown prince feel that he is meddlesome, that’s not Zhang Gao want.

　　Not a moment Zhang Gao in Li Chengqian’s command, all the things are ready, just short of putting saltpeter in, but Li Chengqian did not say how much to put, he did not dare to put, help look at their master Li Chengqian.

　　”Such a big pot, you first grab a handful and put it in the pot, I’ll see the effect first” Feeling Zhang Gao’s gaze, Li Chengqian thought about it and instructed Zhang Gao.

　　After receiving Li Chengqian’s command, Zhang Gao grabbed a handful of saltpeter from the bag with his hand and put it in the wooden basin filled with water.

　　Then Li Chengqian see staring at the changes in the wooden basin, Zhang Gao although do not know what Li Chengqian want to do, but also follow the example of squatting at the edge of the wooden basin to watch.

　　Soon as the saltpeter slowly dissolved into the water of the wooden basin, the wooden basin gradually over a burst of white fog, in the wooden basin around the temperature also became lower.

　　And this magical physical phenomenon let a side of Zhang Gao scared sitting on the ground, looking at the wooden basin in horror, and then he suddenly thought of what, get up to pull Li Chengqian to run outside, although at this time he has been scared of the two shares of the trembling are almost unsteady to stand, but he did not think of their own first time to run for their lives, but came over to want to take Li Chengqian to leave, and this action shows Zhang Gao’s loyalty.

　　”Panic what, not just making ice! See how scared you are, and these things from beginning to end are all found by you, water and saltpeter are also put by you, I don’t know what the hell you’re afraid of” Li Chengqian dodged Zhang Gao who wanted to pull himself to run away, and laughed and scolded at him.

　　Although Zhang Gao’s performance was a bit funny in front of Li Chengqian, a soul traveler, Zhang Gao’s reaction still gave Li Chengqian a sense that this person’s loyalty was okay, and that he should be allowed to help him manage some things more in the future.

　　”Your Highness, are you saying that what the old slave did before was making ice and not the heavens are angry” Hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Zhang Gao got up from the ground and carefully looked at Li Chengqian and the wooden basin in front of him.

　　”What the heavens are angry, and is not making ice, you put your hand into the wooden basin to see if the water in the basin is already very cold” Li Chengqian looked at Zhang Gao with amusement, he really could not figure out that these ancient people took all the things they did not know as punishment from the heavens.

　　Zhang Gao heard Li Chengqian’s words, thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and put his hand toward the wooden basin, but before he could reach in, he quickly put his hand back and looked at Li Chengqian with a sad face, “Your Highness, the old slave still does not dare”.

　　”You still really waste, since you do not dare, then roll to the study to get a set of four treasures over” Li Chengqian words have not finished Zhang Gao like a sturdy rabbit like the yard outside to run, do not see that he has forty and three this year “you run what run, I have not finished that, you run, give Come back!”

　　”Your Highness, what else do you command” heard Li Chengqian’s shout, Zhang Gao reluctantly returned to Li Chengqian’s side, and from time to time also looked at the wooden basin that is constantly bubbling with cold air.

　　”When you come back in a while, go and get me 3 sets of such wooden pots and clay pots” Li Chengqian kicked Zhang Gao in a bad mood, and then instructed him to.

　　And this time in Li Chengqian finished, again and again to make sure that there is no other command, Zhang Gao was Li Chengqian kicked again, and then flew like running away.

　　Looking at the back of Zhang Gao’s departure, Li Chengqian laughed without humor and squatted down to continue to observe the water in the wooden basin.

　　Although the water in the wooden basin is now bubbling with cold air, but because the surrounding temperature is too high, Li Chengqian knows that it is impossible to make the water freeze, unless in the addition of a handful of saltpeter, and one of the causes of such a result is the surrounding temperature is too high, and it is now high noon when the sun is the biggest, the other is that the wooden basin is too big, if you change to a smaller one, or a little bit less water, it may now have begun to freeze.

　　But even so, now standing next to the wooden basin, is also very comfortable, and now this weather, the night if there is no bit of ice to put, but also really not good to sleep, as for last night, Li Chengqian is directly soaked in the bath water, not only did not feel the heat, and so on he can feel the heat when he has fallen asleep, and also put himself whole a small cold out.

　　”This dead Zhang Gao how so slow, and Xia Ju is also, this has gone for so long, how not come back” here waiting for the bored Li Chengqian directly sitting on the edge of the wooden basin, with a spoon scooped a bowl of water in the clay pot is already very cold, looking at the gate of the courtyard.

　　However, Zhang Gao and Xia Ju did not let Li Chengqian wait for too long, after he just finished drinking the ice water in his hand, they appeared at the gate in unison.

　　And along with them, there were also many eunuchs and palace maidens, and everyone was holding something in their hands, after they came in, they saluted Li Chengqian in unison.

　　”Alright, you guys put the things away and you can leave, no one can come in without my order, Chief Zhang and Xia Ju stayed” After saying that, Li Chengqian didn’t care about them.

　　They were all commanded by Zhang Gao to put their things down and left directly, but many eunuchs and palace maids were curious about why His Highness the Crown Prince was sitting on the ground, and how the area around that wooden basin was so cool, but they didn’t see any ice cubes in it, with these questions they were all driven out by Zhang Gao.

　　”Xia Ju, you go and mash all those fruits with a set of bowls for me, Zhang Gao you continue just now, but this time you put a little less water in the wooden pots, mark each wooden pot with a good number, and then add 1 tael of saltpeter and 2 tael of saltpeter in it in this way to see how many tael of saltpeter can be made into ice cubes the fastest with the same amount of water in the wooden pots and then write it down on a piece of paper “Finished Li Chengqian also do not care about the side of the puzzled Xia Ju and very afraid of Zhang Gao, before the wooden pot in the pot holding in the courtyard to find a place with shade to sit down, and have Xia Ju to bring themselves a good quality peaches, where the side to eat while watching them work.

　　However, in Zhang Gao again when making ice, Xia Ju such as Zhang Gao before was also startled, crying pearly rain, let Li Chengqian comfort a bit, only to go to work with tears in their eyes.

　　But with the production of ice more often, not only Zhang Gao is not afraid of, Xia Ju also did not start to be scared of the scene of wow.

　　The waiting process is boring, in Zhang Gao that the experiment is not yet completed, Li Chengqian has waited for the doze are coming, and then Li Chengqian see Xia Ju that has got some fruit puree and juice.

　　Li Chengqian on his side of this very beautiful personal maid called over, pillow her very elastic thighs sleep.
