Chapter 1317: Spring Ploughing
The drizzle is drizzling, and the sky is longitudinal and horizontal.
Patches of flat fields spread out on the hillsides, and in the light drizzle, many farmers ploughed them. A stream rushes down from the top of the mountain, because of the rain, the water is growing, and there is a gurgling sound in the rush, and on both sides of the stream are square paddy fields, and the farmer wears a coat and a hat, and carries the rice seedlings raised in the greenhouse with a flat pole, and walks into the paddy field barefoot, inserting the clusters of rice seedlings in the water and soil.
There are more people on the dry land, and when the spring ploughing catches up with the light rain, which is a good day that has not been seen in recent years, the seeds of the moist land can be planted to germinate and grow better, and almost all the labor is ploughed in the field.
The school also has a farm vacation, the young boy takes off the school's long shirt, changes into ordinary farm clothes, a rope made of thin cowhide through the nose ring on the cow's nose, is firmly held by the child in the hand, gently pulled, the cow obediently follows forward, the back of the adult holding the Zhenguan plough to correct the posture, the field will plow out a straight ridge. The women followed at the end, carefully planting the seed in the ground, closing a layer of soil, and waiting for the seed to take root and sprout......
When Fang Jun came to the mountainside, he saw such a colorful picture scroll in front of him.
What are you working hard and sleepless for? It's not just to continue the current era of comfort and abundance for a long time.
What is Prosperity?
In Fang Jun's view, this standard is actually very simple, it is nothing more than that the old are supported, the young are educated, the sick are treated, and the labor is earned......
Not far ahead, a group of people gathered in the field, and from time to time someone looked at Fang Jun's group of knights with burning eyes, and only after seeing Fang Jun's appearance clearly did they withdraw their gaze and no longer pay attention.
Fang Jun wondered in his heart, this is our land, where did such a group of mallets come from?
Dismounted, walked over, glanced at the crowd, and hurried to turn back and run......
"Fang Er, a certain flood beast, let you avoid it?"
His Majesty Li Er, who was dressed in a cloak and hat, stood on the ground with his hands in his hands, the hem of his shirt was full of mud and water stains, and he didn't have the appearance of being the supreme in the world, but like a rich man who cared about the land from the land...... It's just that Fang Jun, who is looking at the probe and probing his brain, is very bad.
Fang Jun grinned, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty misunderstood Weichen, Weichen saw His Majesty Weifu paying a private visit and going deep into the fields to care about the people's livelihood, which is really an unprecedented holy lord." It's just that this is a rural place, and I am afraid that there will be an accident in the white dragon fish suit, so Wei Chen hurried back to organize people to come to escort him......"
"Hehe, Shechen is Shechen, opening and closing his mouth is flattery, what a thick face." A dry and thin old man beside His Majesty Li Er sneered and sneered, but it wasn't Wei Zheng's old goods......
This old man rested at home for some time, probably because his vitality was replenished, and his spirit was not bad, but the age spots on his face became more and more obvious, and his body gradually became rickety, and he no longer had the same hard and upright spirit as before
It's just that this mouth is still like a poisonous snake......
Fang Jun's eyelids jumped, and he said indifferently: "Zi said: If you receive the grace of dripping water, you should repay it with a spring, and Zi said: Eat people with short mouths and short hands with people...... Zheng Guogong is probably old, and he forgot the grace of giving longevity materials that day, or not, although he doesn't expect to repay his kindness, he can't feed the white-eyed wolf with white rice, right? Later, I will arrange for the servants to go to your mansion to carry the piece of longevity back, and I hope that Zheng Guogong will not blame him. ”
Wei Zheng smiled angrily, pointed his finger at Fang Jun, and his teeth were about to be crushed: "Okay, good, the old man has been honest all his life, he has never accepted half a bribe, and when he is dying, he accepts a coffin board from you and you put it on your mouth all day long, resulting in the loss of the evening festival!" Let's go to the old man's house and carry the coffin board away, and see how you slander the old man in the future. ”
Fang Jun reminded: "You asked me for it, not my ...... on my own initiative."
"Fuck off!"
Wei Zheng snorted angrily, turned his head and ignored him, pulling an old farmer to ask about seeds and cultivation.
His Majesty Li Er snorted: "Don't respect the elders, the erector is arrogant!" That's how your dad taught you? ”
Fang Jun bared his teeth and looked at His Majesty Li Er: "Your Majesty Mingjian, it's not that Weichen doesn't respect the elderly, it's really that Zheng Guogong doesn't respect the elderly...... Wei Chen eats the king's Lu, and still knows the matter of loyalty to the king, Zheng Guogong is so old, but he blows his beard and glares at the juniors, and he didn't have this attitude when he asked Wei Chen for the coffin board......"
"Fuck off!" His Majesty Li Er is also angry, can you make a difference?
"Whoa!"
Fang Jun turned around and left.
"Come back!" His Majesty Li Er snorted.
Fang Jun was helpless: "What else does Your Majesty command?" ”
His Majesty Li Er pinched a few cotton seeds in his hand, raised his eyes to look at the busy farmland, and asked: "The land here is fertile, it is a high-quality good field, and if you plant rice, it will be a bumper harvest in a year." Why do you grow cotton all of them? ”
The soil is soaked with rain, with a faint earthy smell, and when you hold it in your hand, it is a loose mass, slightly shiny. In the past, when the eldest grandson queen was alive, the husband and wife would go down to the field every spring ploughing and personally help the plough to plough, thinking that the world was an example. Therefore, he could see that this field was very fertile, but he couldn't understand why Fang Jun abandoned rice and planted cotton brought back from the Western Regions......
Cotton is indeed a good thing to keep warm, but compared to the food that can fill the stomach, the importance is definitely not the same, right?
Fang Jun groaned slightly, organizing his words in his heart.
After a while, he said: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about how to manage Goguryeo in the future? Or is it just to have an extra piece of land on the map of the Tang Dynasty and use the blood of millions of soldiers to dye His Majesty's magnificent hegemony for thousands of years? ”
His Majesty Li Er's face instantly sank, and his expression was uncertain.
After the capture of Goguryeo...... Who cares what happens to him? What I want is to destroy the grand hegemony of Goguryeo, what I want is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and what I want is to catch up with Qin Shi Huang and become the first emperor of the ages!
As for how to govern after the capture of Goguryeo, His Majesty Li Er never thought about it!
"You kid finally said a human word, not bad, it's not just a blind slander, some of the demeanor of a courtier."
Wei Zhengwen, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two and interjected.
Wei Zheng has always been a stalwart of the DPRK's staunch opposition to the conquest of Goguryeo, in his opinion, Goguryeo's bitter cold land, the land is barren and the population is sparse, and the food is like chicken ribs, where is the slightest taste? For the sake of a mere Goguryeo, it is necessary to recruit millions of troops and spend countless amounts of money and food, which is really not cost-effective.
His Majesty Li Er didn't speak, glaring at Fang Jun.
Didn't you say that you should be a minister, where are you kid?
Fang Jun rolled his eyes at Wei Zheng, and said to His Majesty Li Er: "Your Majesty has lofty ambitions and has the world in mind, and Weichen admires it to the fullest. It's just that Your Majesty has ever thought that if Goguryeo is conquered and not treated, and gains and losses, how will Your Majesty be commented on in the history books after a thousand years? ”
His Majesty Li Er's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but want to kick someone......
Wei Zheng's spirits perked up, and he said in time: "Your Majesty, Fang Er's words are reasonable!" The conquest of Goguryeo is certainly a great cause for a thousand years, but its land is bitter and cold, it is useless to gain, and countless soldiers have been spent on countless money and food just for the title of an emperor through the ages. The conquest of Goguryeo, please think twice......"
His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth and didn't look at Wei Zheng, just stared at Fang Jun, his eyes flickered, and his eyes showed a fierce light.
Brat!
actually came to dismantle Lao Tzu's platform? The conquest of Goguryeo is imperative, don't you know it in your own heart? Hurry up and think of Lao Tzu to go back, if not, hum......
Fang Jun's forehead was sweating, and His Majesty Li Er glared at him, so he glared at Wei Zheng......
The old thing honestly asks about the farming technique, why are you everywhere you talk?
Annoying or not......
"Zheng Guogong's words are wrong! His Majesty's intention to conquer Goguryeo was for the sake of the foundation of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations, but was it for his own selfish desires and disregard the interests of the empire? Zheng Guogong can't see His Majesty's good intentions, but he is here to confuse the public and slander His Majesty. ”
