I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

Li Shimin frowned, immersed in the aftertaste of Wei Zheng's words.

"Science?" he whispered to himself, with a hint of shock in his tone.

He was not completely unfamiliar with this so-called "science". In the city of Xianyang, the sound of children reading aloud could be heard from time to time in the streets and alleys, and what they were learning was this "science" that Li Shimin found somewhat puzzling.

His daughters Li Mingda and Li Jiming, like other children, were immersed in those wonderful things every day and never tired of it. After returning home, they would always excitedly share with him the new experiences in college.

At first, Li Shimin was skeptical when he heard about the popularity of "science" and ordered people to find scientific textbooks. When the bound books appeared before him, he opened them and took a look, but the contents of the books disappointed him greatly.

In the traditional concepts he had long upheld, this knowledge was nothing more than some unorthodox tricks and was of no use in governing the vast Tang Empire. It could not be compared with the orthodox Four Books and Five Classics at all.

But as the days passed, the two daughters would eagerly pull him along when they returned from college, and enthusiastically do all sorts of extremely interesting little experiments.

At the beginning, Li Shimin only participated in it with a perfunctory attitude, but gradually, he found that he was attracted by these small experiments that seemed simple but contained infinite mysteries.

Once, his daughters used some exquisite instruments and materials to demonstrate the wonderful tension phenomenon of water. The crystal clear water droplets rolled and gathered on the instruments, forming all kinds of wonderful shapes, which opened his eyes.

Through the reflection and combination of mirrors, colorful light and shadow can be projected on the walls of the house, condensing the entire world into that small area of ​​light and shadow.

These novel experiences gradually changed Li Shimin's deep-seated views on science.

He began to realize that this thing his son called science seemed to have an indescribable unique charm and practical value that could not be underestimated.

Compared with the traditional Four Books and Five Classics, it is indeed more useful in certain specific aspects, and perhaps it can provide greater help to the prosperity and long-term stability of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, under Li Shimin's firm suggestion, Li Zhi had to pack his bags and embark on the journey to study at the academy.

But Li Shimin still greatly underestimated the true power of science.

When the loud noise that could tear the sky and the earth apart was heard, and when the huge and eye-catching hole on the Great Wall appeared in front of everyone, Li Shimin was so shocked that he stood there in shock.

He stared at the gaping hole in the Great Wall, and saw a whole new world slowly unfolding before his eyes, and his heart was unable to calm down for a long time.

He had anticipated that science would have a great impact, but he never imagined it would be so frightening!

The Great Wall, a solid line of defense against foreign enemies built over countless years and consuming countless manpower and material resources, was now easily destroyed by the power of science. This shocked him and made him inexplicably excited.

"This...how on earth was this done?" Li Shimin's voice trembled slightly, filled with surprise, confusion and deep awe of the unknown power.

There was a complex and inexplicable light flashing in his eyes, including the shock of first seeing the power, the ecstasy about the possibilities of the future, and more importantly, the infinite imagination of the Tang Dynasty using this power to move towards glory.

Since the power of science can bring down the Great Wall, then those cities that seem indestructible on a normal day will become helpless decorations in the face of such a powerful and mysterious force, right?
