Chapter 134: Cheer up and do things

The next day, whether they wanted to take the scattered merchants with them, they also followed, either openly or secretly, and they could not say that they could not follow, and in the end, they acquiesced to the north with the caravan.

But it was said that the emperor's hall was arguing endlessly between the monarchs and ministers. The emperor meant to go to war, and to go into battle himself.

Prime Minister Li Dacheng was the first to object: "Your Majesty! It's not that you won't be asked to teach that hateful alien a lesson, but now is not the time, we have just gone through three years of disasters, and we can't keep up with the grain and grass in all aspects, and the farming has not fully recovered, so it is really not a good time to fight. ”

General Lin followed closely and said, "Your Majesty! The old minister agreed with what Prime Minister Li Cheng said. We are now in short supply of military rations, and we only eat two meals a day. New Year's food, according to them, is not much to harvest, and it is really not a good time to fight with foreign races. ”

Wu Shangshu of the household department went out to the left and played: "Your Majesty!" After three years of drought, the government's granary has been empty because of military rations and disaster relief. In addition, this year the peasants should be exempted from taxes, because if grain is levied because of the war, it will inevitably increase the burden on the peasants, and if it is not done properly, it will cause civil strife. ”

The emperor, who was sitting on the high dragon chair, frowned and did not respond. Wen has Li Laocheng is the opposite, Wu Youlin is opposed, and Wu Shangshu is opposed, it seems that this battle really can't be fought!

Here for the time being, let's explain the royal background called the Damin Dynasty in this era!

The historical dynasties, Tang, Song, Yuan and the previous development history, although there are some differences, but the historical difference with the history known by Erya is not big, only when the Han overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and entered the battle of various righteous armies, there was a big difference. At that time, the aliens ruled by the Yuan Dynasty were driven out of the Central Plains. Many rebels circled their spheres of influence.

Some of them said that they were the descendants of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, some claimed to be the descendants of the Zhao family, the royal family of the Song Dynasty, and some said that they were the descendants of the Qin family. These so-called royal descendants were soon devoured by other rebels.

And the ancestor of this Great People's Dynasty is not surnamed Zhang nor Zhu. It is a rare surname - the surname Feng, named Feng Yuancheng.

A homeless orphan who was initially killed by the Tartars who ruled their village during the reign of the aliens. He used his identity as a child to contact some children in the surrounding villages and secretly organized a scout. Practice the ability to kill people and fight wars by yourself. Originally, he planned to wait until he was able to find revenge on the Tartar who killed his parents. Who knows, before he could take revenge, the Tartars were driven back to the steppe.

However, he is a wise man and a scheming man after all, and other rebel armies are fighting for the territory one after another. He led the rebels in the territory under his own jurisdiction, concentrating on protecting the cultivation of the jurisdiction and protecting the property of the people in the jurisdiction from being robbed by other rebels. As time passed, more and more peasants, landlords, merchants, and squires took refuge in him, and the boundaries of the land also expanded imperceptibly. Until later, because some rebels fought again and again, they had no source in their lives except for robbing and grabbing, and as long as they were the Fengjia army, they could be fed and clothed. They all took the initiative to take refuge.

The Feng Dynasty was established in such a daze! After the establishment of the dynasty, it is necessary to have a domineering, clear and classic name of the Feng dynasty. Everyone offered all the names they could think of, but none of them were adopted by Feng Yuancheng. Until a general who had followed the ancestral emperor since he was a child said: "Look at General Ben." There is no "great people" to express the deep meaning of our dynasty! "The ancestor of the Feng family thinks it is beautiful! It was decided at the moment to name the Fengjia Dynasty after "Damin".

Since the establishment of the Great People's Dynasty, the main purpose has been to recuperate, and there has been no major war for decades, of course, small fights on the border cannot be avoided.

Now there is finally a chance to fight a big battle to show the power of the Damin Dynasty. However, because of the three-year disaster, the guide had to run aground because of the lack of grain and grass. The emperor of this generation, Feng Batian, felt a little difficult to accept. But he wants to resist the obstruction of the three giants of literature, martial arts, and wealth and wealth, and act arbitrarily. He didn't dare yet. Although it is easy for his family to gain this day, if he doesn't keep it well, it will be easy to lose it.

There are still ministers at the bottom who are opposed, and there are a few who support out of the support of the horse, Feng Batian knows it in his heart, but he also enjoys such a few strange flattery. Being on my own, always blindly listening to the words of opposition and lessons, it is really uncomfortable to want to go crazy, but because of my position, I have to hold back the unhappiness in my stomach, and endure it with a smile!

Fuck it! Who said that the emperor is good?

The controversy and final decision in the court will not come out for a while. Xiaohu and the others are still walking north on the road, but the second girl at home is anxious because they have not been able to get their news and the situation at the border for a long time.

The nurse looked at the lady of the owner who was spinning in circles again, and said sadly: "Lady of the owner, if you are like this all the time, you can't do it!" There are so many things to do at home that you need to arrange! ”

Erya's heart is in a daze, yes! It's not a good thing that I've been thinking so cranky, I'll go crazy sooner or later, and it's the right way to keep myself busy.

At that moment, the second girl thanked the nurse gratefully: "Auntie! Thank you, otherwise it would have been a bad thing for me to be so groggy and cranky! There are so many things left to do at home, and I'm really confused! ”

The nurse hurriedly shook her hand and said, "Don't thank me, the lady of the proprietor's house, I'm also worried that the lady of the proprietor said something that shouldn't have been said to me." ”

"Auntie, don't say that, anyone can say good words. I'll listen to you today, and hurry up and do what I should be busy with! It can't be like this anymore. ”

At the moment, Erya decided to go first to see how his family's more than 200 acres of fields in the east of the town were being cultivated.

She took Wen Yue with her, rode to her field, stood at the top, and watched from a distance as the field was ploughed for most of it.

Because the Zhuang style sent by the previous master family is not a dedicated servant. The fields were basically deserted, and there were a lot of wild grasses, which caused a lot of difficulties for them to plow the fields, otherwise they would not have ploughed half of them in so many days, and the normal ones would have been plowed.

Erya looked at a dozen or so cows pulling wooden shelves and plowing in the distance. Behind is the ox handle holding the plow, walking slowly. After walking for a while, the ox would stop and use a whip made of bamboo to remove the weeds stuck in the plow. It's very time-consuming to stop and go and bend down to clean the plowshare, but Er Ya is not in a hurry anyway. This field will be raised for another winter, as long as they do their work well.

This field is very different from the 100 acres of land to the west of the town, this field is very low, and there is a small river from the southwest to the east, passing through the middle to divide the 200 acres of land into two pieces.

The river makes it easy to get water for irrigation from the fields on both sides. There is no need for a reservoir or anything. I just don't know why the Huang family is still on both sides of the river, digging seven or eight large reservoirs. Erya didn't know the reason, but she still hoped to find out, because she believed that the Huang family would not be useless for no reason.

Erya has been in this world for seven or eight years, and the geographical location here has been roughly understood.

The overall area of their house is high in the west and low in the east, the north and south are divided by the east-west line in the town, the south side of the town is high in the north and low in the south, and the north side of the town is high in the south and low in the north. Erya, they are in the north of the town, high in the south and low in the north.

Hundreds of miles to the west is a very large and long mountain range, which is said to be a real place of lofty mountains, with tigers, wolves, snakes, poisonous insects, miasma, cliffs, bottomless pools, and mountain crevices. Anyway, it is said that ordinary people can't go into that mountain, and if they go, they can't get out. It wasn't comparable to her family's General Mountain, and it wasn't something they could see on the small barren hillsides in front of them. The mountain range stretches all the way south, making their home a semi-encircled basin.

There are many small rivers all the way down from the west, one passes through their Wangjiazhuang, and one passes through her mother's Liu Laozhuang. This one passed by her family's paddy field again. None of these rivers are very large, and ordinary flooding generally does not cause major damage.

Where only two rivers meet, or where three rivers meet. Regardless of heavy rain or light rain, just rush to the rainy season. There will be a great flood. However, because of the many rivers and convenient waterways, these places have become the first choice for people to settle down.

It's too much to say, let's talk about the field of Erya's family! Fortunately, there is only one river leading to her paddy field, and as long as it is not in time for flash floods like this year, there should not be waterlogging. Just looking at the reservoir group that went down this way, Er Ya was a little uncertain.

Hi! Let's take a look at it during the rainy season next year! If there is a real danger of flooding, redesign a better drainage waterway. I have seen more water conservancy achievements in later generations, and I believe that this will not be difficult for her.

However, these reservoirs must be used and must not be left idle, maybe the fish fry will come over after spring next year!

Erya carried Wen Yue on her back, pulled the horse, and walked along the river to the uncle who was plowing the fields.

When I arrived at the field, I saw that the uncle was grabbing something, so I asked curiously, "Uncle!" What to catch? ”

The uncle looked up and saw that it was his niece and daughter-in-law coming, so he smiled and said, "Oh! There are a lot of yellow eels in this field, and I have caught a lot of them, and I keep them at home! ”

Erya put the reins of the horse and ran forward to look at it, and asked happily, "Is it big?" Second uncle, have they been caught? ”

Because this field has been unmanaged, there are many yellow eels and loaches in addition to growing grass. Because there was no water in the field, the eel and loach were particularly easy to catch once they were turned over by the plow.

ran to the uncle, only to find that the uncle had a small fish basket pinned to his waist, and the second girl stretched out his head to see that there was already a small half basket of yellow eels.

I couldn't help but cry out in surprise: "Oops! That's all you can do in half a day? ”

Uncle grabbed the yellow eel and put it in the basket, and said with a smile: "Your second uncle has caught more than me." ”

"Then when I go back, go to your house and take some home and make a stir-fried yellow eel silk to eat." Er Ya said.

"Go get it! There are many at home, and your aunt and they are all scared, and they dare not kill or eat. I thought I'd do it myself when I had finished plowing the field. ”

The second girl followed the plow, looked at the furrow with her eyes, and replied to the uncle's words: "Don't be reluctant to eat it, don't you keep it and sell it?!" As she spoke, she suddenly saw a loach turned out, and hurriedly shouted, "There are loaches!" Uncle and so on! I'm going to catch loaches! ”

The uncle hurriedly grabbed the reins of the cow and stopped, and said, "There are a lot of loaches in this one, I don't even want them." I don't like to eat wild loaches because they smell too much! ”

Erya said to the uncle while grabbing the loaches: "Uncle, if you see the loaches in the future, you will have to catch them back, this wild loach is better, use lettuce seed oil for a few days and then burn it, there is no earthy smell at all." Braised loach is a very delicious dish, loach tofu soup is very replenishing, and often eating loach can also cure diseases! Otherwise, in previous years, our loaches were more expensive than fish, and other restaurants were still rushing to ask for them? ”

As soon as the uncle heard Erya's words, he was very annoyed, "Oops! I didn't think I could sell it if I didn't eat it! It's a pity! ”

Erya threw the loach into the basket and comforted: "Uncle! It's okay, it's good to think about catching it now, the previous ones are still in their own fields, and they can't run! (To be continued)
