Chapter Seventy-Five: Bringing Up Marriage Again
Li Shimin opened his mouth and said: "Li Zheng's reward is still allowed to be discussed later." ”
Fang Xuanling nodded, "The minister has retired." ”
After so many courtiers admonished, Li Shimin still postponed Li Zheng's reward for further discussion.
Jingyang
Li Zheng and Li Tai were playing backgammon, but they stopped halfway through while Li Tai was playing.
Looking up at Li Tai, Li Zheng said, "Why don't you go down?" You owe me so much money before, do you want to repay the debt? ”
Li Tai pointed to the outside of the courtyard.
Li Zheng turned his head to look, and a familiar figure was standing outside the courtyard.
If you take a closer look, isn't this Li Liqian?
Li Zheng looked at Li Lizhi walking around his door with her head down and said, "Fatty, did she lose something?" ”
"What?"
"Look at her walking around, is she dropping money?"
Li Tai smiled disdainfully at Li Zheng's words, I really don't know if this kid is really incomprehensible or pretending to be stupid.
Standing up, Li Tai said, "I'll go to sleep, and I won't wake up in a few hours." ”
After saying that, Li Tai walked into his room and closed the door.
Li Zheng walked to the door and saluted and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, did you drop something?" Isn't it a loss of money? ”
Li Lizhi raised her chin and said, "You still don't only have money in your eyes. ”
Li Zheng sighed and said: "Her Royal Highness the princess has mistaken me, I don't just have money in my eyes. ”
Li Lizhi's cheeks flushed for a while, and she stood straight and pretended to be casual, "Really? So what else do you have in your eyes? ”
Li Zheng said sadly: "In addition to things like money, there are also poetry and distance in my eyes. ”
"Why don't I believe it?"
"I really don't believe ......"
Following Li Zheng all the way through the village, Li Lizhi breathed in the air here and said, "I haven't been here for a month, and I feel that there have really changed here." ”
Li Zheng came to the edge of the field and dug up a potato plant and said, "Does Her Royal Highness the Princess know what this is?" ”
Li Lizhi looked curiously at the things hanging on the rhizome and asked, "What is this?" ”
"This is a potato, a grain."
"Potatoes?" Li Li looked at it and said, "It's a bit like the sweet potato you gave me before." ”
"Her Royal Highness the princess has a blessing today."
Li Lizhi was very curious about the things in Li Zheng's hand, and the sweet potatoes he had eaten before were also the same, and after eating them once, he also inquired several times, and asked the people in the palace to consult the classics.
No such food has been found in sweet potatoes, and there is no record of such a grain in the classics.
Li Zheng took a few potatoes to the river to wash them.
Li Lizhi sat on the side and watched Li Zheng busy before skillfully lighting a small pot on the fire rack and starting to stew pork and potatoes.
"I really envy you, you seem to know everything."
Watching the soup boil, pieces of pork and potatoes floated up.
Li Zheng took the pot off the fire, handed the chopsticks and said, "Taste it." ”
Li Lizhi picked up a piece of potato, took a bite carefully, and said, "It's delicious, it's very soft and glutinous." ”
After taking a bite and biting down, his little face was red by the sun.
Li Lizhi ate for a while and then said, "Li Zheng, I'm full." ”
"How many bites have you eaten?"
Li Lizhi grinned and said, "I'll be full after a few bites, it's getting late, I'm going back." ”
Seeing Li Liqing, the girl, leave with the guards, Li Zheng always felt that this girl had something on her mind.
The leftover potato stew and pork were distributed to the children in the village.
Li Lizhi returned to the palace, and Li Shimin received the news as soon as possible.
This time, Li Lizhen was out of the palace for longer than before.
Li Shimin sat in the manna hall and pondered, and as she was about to arrange a marriage for Lizhen, the smile on her face became less and less.
A lot of times it's just sitting looking at the scenery, and I don't know what she's thinking.
Knowing that she was unhappy, Li Shimin felt uncomfortable in his heart.
The eldest grandson, Wuji, has been recuperating at home these days.
I visited him a few days ago.
Whether he was really sick or not is hard to say.
Li Shimin can also see that with Li Zheng's scenery.
The reputation of the eldest grandson's family also began to plummet.
Even if you run a bookstore, you won't be able to save much reputation.
Li Shimin knows very well in his heart that since he ascended the throne, the relationship between himself and his eldest grandson Wuji has become more and more estranged.
It's not that I don't know the mind of the eldest grandson Wuji.
For the eldest grandson Wuji, there are many discussions in both the market and the DPRK.
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Shimin got up and went to the eldest grandson's house again to visit the eldest grandson Wuji.
Now everyone is paying attention to Princess Changle's marriage.
inquired about Princess Changle's marriage.
Li Shimin went to the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji twice.
There are many people who speculate whether His Majesty intends to let Princess Changle marry Changsun Chong.
To say that the young people in Chang'an are now the eldest grandson in addition to Li Zheng.
"But the eldest grandson Chong is within His Majesty's five suits."
"Can this kind of family affair be done?"
"Your Majesty would not do that today."
……
Someone else said: "If Your Majesty wants to win over the eldest grandson Wuji, you may really do it." ”
"The eldest grandson Wuji's family background is much better than Li's."
"Li Zheng is from a civilian background, and further down the line, Li Zheng is just a county, how can a princess marry such a commoner."
"I will definitely be chosen among the powerful."
"Is the princess marrying Li Zheng to go farming?"
"But Your Majesty's reward for Li Zheng has been delayed."
Li Shimin went to visit the body of the eldest grandson Wuji for the second time, and Wei Zheng came as soon as he returned to the palace.
Tired and distraught, Li Shimin said, "Let him come in." ”
Wei Zheng came to the Ganlu Hall and saluted: "Your Majesty, do you want to marry Princess Changle to Changsun Chong?" ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng quietly, he had indeed had this idea in his heart, and he was still hesitating and thinking about it.
Wei Zheng continued: "Your Majesty! How to get married within five suits! Could it be that Your Majesty wants to risk the world's disobedience? ”
Li Shimin shook his hand and left the Ganlu Palace, not wanting to deal with Wei Zheng anymore.
The discussion in the market is getting bigger and bigger, and for a while it is about to overshadow the matter of Li Zhengfeng's reward.
The edict on Li Zheng's reward has not been issued for a long time, and he has been hesitant about Princess Changle's marriage.
What's wrong with Your Majesty today?
Li Yifu began to arrange for the villagers to harvest potatoes.
Li Zheng is looking at the pomp and circumstance of harvesting potatoes, and the yield of potatoes per mu is very high.
The yield per mu is 1,000 catties to 2,000 catties.
Converted into the current grain unit, it is about 15 to 20 stone per mu.
It's a concept.
Datang's millet yield per mu is more than 100 catties.
If you really calculate the amount of these potatoes, the yield of these potatoes is more than ten times higher than that of Datang's annual harvest of millet rice.
And in today's season, potatoes can be planted for two more seasons.
Potato cultivation is not so picky.
A lot of places that are far from wasteland can be used to grow potatoes.
The warehouse full of potatoes can't fit with Ben.
Li Zheng is now somewhat aware that he seems to have grown too many potatoes.
