With a heavy snow covering the entire northern part of Datang, the seven years of Datang Zhenguan have come to an end, and the Spring Festival is approaching.

The Tang Yuan Day (Spring Festival) holiday is similar to that of later generations, and it is also seven days.

According to the custom, at this time of the year, the imperial court will hold a grand court meeting at the end of the year to summarize the gains and losses of the court in the past year.

Outside the Tai Chi Temple.

All the ministers lined up in turn and walked along the snow road that had just been cleared into the Taiji Palace, but all the courtiers would involuntarily be attracted by a touch of green when they entered the Taiji Palace.

I saw that outside the Taiji Palace, the two potted plants that were originally destroyed by Merton had already disappeared, and were replaced by a small potted plant, full of snow-covered pots, a few green leaves stubbornly showed their heads, this thing was the auspicious Rui offered by Merton, spinach.

In a withered yellow world, there is suddenly a vegetable that can survive in the snow, how precious it will be, it is conceivable that when this spinach blooms and bears seeds in the early spring, there will be no shortage of green vegetables to eat in the winter of Datang in the future.

"Grunt!" A voice swallowing saliva came from among the courtiers,

Cheng Yanjin, who was in the ranks of military generals, saw the green spinach and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he was fortunate to taste the taste of spinach, and it was a rare delicacy to eat in winter.

"Good luck for the Mo family!"

Many courtiers couldn't help but envy in their hearts.

The spinach in front of me not only represents the availability of green vegetables in the Tang Dynasty in winter, but also confirms the correct path of introducing seeds from foreign countries.

Although the Central Plains Dynasty has always called itself the Celestial Empire and regarded other countries as wild places, this spinach has confirmed to everyone that although foreign countries are backward, they are not without desirable things, and if those seeds and medicinal materials in Merton's mouth are introduced into the Tang Dynasty, it will definitely benefit the Tang Dynasty immensely.

At the back of Wenchen's team, Feng Zhidai looked at the spinach in front of him, and couldn't help but glance at the figure of the last Merton, with great hatred in his heart, Merton gave him the big hat of Zigong ransom, and the real benefits were all taken by the Mo family, in his opinion, this was a complete act of eating alone.

Everyone rushed into the Tai Chi Palace, and suddenly a warm rush came, in the entire Tai Chi Palace, the heating had already been turned on, and the hall was as warm as spring.

The cold wind outside the hall, the warm as spring inside the hall, forming a very sharp contrast, many elderly ministers could not help but show a satisfied look, they are old, the most unbearable cold, Merton's invention of heating is too much with their hearts.

However, the important ministers in the front row were naturally extremely warm, and there were gusts of cold wind near the gate, which penetrated through the cracks in the door from time to time, and at the end of the Wenchen column, Feng Zhidai was shivering by a gust of cold wind.

However, in the column of military generals, Merton was extremely comfortable, standing proudly beside a radiator that he had abused his power, although there was also cold blowing in, but he did not feel cold

Merton secretly exclaimed that he was still prescient, otherwise it would be too much of a loss to install the heating himself and suffer from freezing.

On the side, Li Junxian gave a thumbs up to Chao Moton, who was full of admiration, and moved his body with peace of mind to share this warmth.

"The emperor has arrived!" Accompanied by Pound's shrill voice, Li Shimin's figure appeared in front of the dragon chair.

"See the emperor!" The ministers bowed and saluted.

"All the ministers are flat!" Li Shimin said with a smile on his face.

The Great Dynasty Meeting officially began, and Fang Xuanling started the annual performance conference on behalf of the hundred officials, "Your Majesty, my Datang has more than doubled the amount of wasteland reclaimed this year than last year...... Fang Xuanling took out his reading glasses and put them on, looking at his Chao Wat and said excitedly.

Although the entire land of Guanlong has now forbidden the reclamation of wasteland, but with the emergence of Quyuan plow, the reclamation of wasteland in the entire Tang Dynasty immediately increased significantly, you must know that at this time the land represents wealth, and the increase in land represents the increase in taxes in the coming year.

"Thanks to Your Majesty's wisdom, Datang has overcome droughts, locust plagues, and floods this year......" Fang Xuanling's voice was excited, there are too many things worth paying tribute to Datang this year!

Li Shimin's heart is happy, this year can be said to be the most comfortable year for him, the three major natural disasters can be said to be the great trouble of all dynasties, but in the seven years of Zhenguan was miraculously solved, it can be said without hesitation that the seven years of Zhenguan will be destined to go down in history.

He couldn't help but look at the figure of Mo Dun in the corner in front of the Taiji Palace, all of which started when Mo Jiazi broke into the deep-water dragon pool of Chang'an City like a reckless catfish.

He threw Merton to the National Prison in order to experiment with the catfish effect, and Merton did not disappoint him and handed over a satisfactory answer.

However, with his support, the Mo family developed rapidly in Chang'an City, and in the Tang Dynasty, which was like a pool of backwater, it burst out with amazing power, how could this not be a catfish effect?

After Fang Xuanling's report was completed, Duan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, said: "Your Majesty, the brick road from Chang'an City to Luoyang has been fully repaired. ”

"Really?" Li Shimin was pleasantly surprised.

Duan Lun nodded solemnly, although the brick road was proposed by Merton, but after all, it was built by his hands, in order to please Li Shimin, the Ministry of Engineering worked overtime, and the construction at both ends finally caught up with the year. The brick road from Chang'an to Luoyang will be repaired.

"At present, the Ministry of Industry has done a test of opening to traffic, from Chang'an City to Luoyang, every 100 miles in the post station to replace horses, can be sent from morning to night, fully loaded trucks, one day and one night can reach Luoyang City." Duan Lun said excitedly.

"Morning and sunset!" In the Taiji Palace, the hearts of hundreds of officials shook wildly.

In one day, being able to reach Luoyang from Chang'an City is a speed that many people dared not imagine before, but now it has really been realized.

What's more important is that even in today's snowy weather, the brick road is still unimpeded, and such a brick road is too important to Datang.

"Where's the brick road to the land of Longyou?" Li Shimin took a deep breath and said. This brick road is the logistics road for the Tuyuhun campaign at the beginning of the year, but it is the most important thing.

"Back to Your Majesty! The brick road leading to the land of Longyou has been built for 300 miles, reaching Chencang, and it will definitely increase its speed after the year, and it will definitely be completed in April next year, and it will not delay His Majesty's major affairs. Duan Lun said.

Chen Cang is the Baoji of the later generations, more than 300 miles away from Chang'an, so far, the Ministry of Industry has built 1,100 miles of brick roads, the weather is getting warmer after the year, the speed of road repair naturally increases, the focus of the Ministry of Industry has been on the brick road from Chang'an to Luoyang, three months after the completion of the remaining brick road, Duan Lun is still very confident.

Li Shimin stretched out his hand, Pang De immediately presented a map of the territory of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin looked at the location of Chen Cang, then nodded with satisfaction, and said: "The brick road in the land of Longyou is temporarily built to Lanzhou, and after the end of the Tuyuhun war, the Ministry of Industry will immediately continue to lay the brick road, west to Yumen Pass, east to ......."

Li Shimin paused, picked up the red pen and spent a heavy stroke on the map, and said proudly: "East to the sea!" ”

"The sea?" Duan Lun was frightened and incoherent, and looked at the map in amazement, and Li Shimin used a long red line from east to west with a red pen.

Merton was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that the famous Longhai Line in later generations would take shape at the end of the seventh year of Zhenguan.
