Chapter Forty-Seven: The Silent Messenger Enters the West

"Okay, good news for my nephew and brother Chu Mo and other uncles."

"What Your Majesty said today is that the food with a yield of more than 800 catties per mu is these buds?" General Cheng asked, pointing to the potato sprouts in the neatly arranged iron bucket.

"It's these buds."

"Haha, haha, you kid is really talented......"

General Cheng told everyone what happened in the court today, which made everyone laugh.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book to play." His Majesty Li Er's early dynasty had just begun, and General Cheng Lao went out to start his class.

"If you know what the section is, say it and listen to it."

"Your Majesty, yesterday the old minister went to Chang'an Houfu, Chang'an Hou gave His Majesty a clever plan to divide and recover the Western Turks, the old minister thinks that this matter is not trivial, please ask Your Majesty for permission."

"Is that so?" His Majesty Li Er came to his senses in an instant, he never thought that Chang'an Hou still had military talent.

Originally, His Majesty Li Er only thought that Chang'an Hou was proficient in poetry and some strange skills, which was a big surprise!

"Your Majesty, Chang'an Hou analyzed that the Western Turks are about to start a major civil strife, and this is the best opportunity for our Datang to take the Western Turks without spending a single soldier."

The ministers instantly gasped, and took down the Western Turks without a single soldier?

I'm afraid this cowhide is blowing into the sky, right?

Even the military god Li Jing smiled noncommittally, young man, it's too self-conscious.

"Is that really what Chang'an Hou said?" His Majesty Li Er stood up excitedly and said.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is not lying, Your Majesty can summon Chang'an to come, and you will know if you ask."

"No need, I also want to go out of the palace today to relax, and casually look at the food that Chang'an Hou planted with a yield of more than 800 catties per mu."

The ministers were messy in the court in an instant, but you said it yourself yesterday Except for Su Guogong's family, no one is allowed to go to disturb Chang'an Houfu.

No way, who makes the family the one who makes the rules!

"Brother, brother, you see the potato sprouts grow up." The eldest girl said with surprise as if she had discovered a new world.

"Yes, brother, these of mine have also grown."

"These are the credit of a few of you, hard work little girls." Tao Ran looked at her sisters happily and said with a smile.

What is Happiness? Everyone's definition of happiness is different! Tao Ran feels that he is happy now!

Early in the morning, Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang came to Chang'an Houfu, without him, they came early to eat!

After tasting the cooking skills of Houfu from Cheng Chuliang, he also missed this place, Tao Ran had long expected that they would come, so he prepared a lot of breakfast.

"Your Majesty may come to our mansion today, Du Juan and Dongmei will thoroughly clean the mansion, inside and out, your majesty is here, don't be nervous, after all, it's not above the court." After eating, Tao Ran said to everyone.

"Brother, is Your Majesty the biggest official in the world?" The big girl said with flashing eyes.

"Well, it's the biggest official, and the little girl is an official fan at such a young age."

"Brother, how did you know that Your Majesty would come today, I'm starting to get nervous now." Cheng Chu silently wiped the rice grains on the corner of his mouth and said.

"yes, I'm nervous." Cheng Chuliang said in a low voice.

"Why are you nervous about preparing in advance? Let's just go to class normally......"

When Grandma heard that His Majesty was coming, she hurriedly instructed Du Juan to go and let everyone in the house change into new clothes.

In order to hide people's eyes, His Majesty Li Er also went on the road in disguise.

The sedan chair stopped at the gate of Chang'an Houfu. I heard the sound of reading aloud inside.

"You guys wait here for the truth, and I and Mr. Yang can go in." His Majesty Li Er said to the attendants who followed.

His Majesty Li Er quietly walked into the Chang'an Waiting Mansion.

"Brother Chu Mo, first under your six hundred soldiers, divided into five groups to attack the enemy, how many people are in each group?"

"One hundred and twenty people per group?"

"After 200 wounded, how many people are left in each group?"

"There are eighty left."

"Annihilation of the enemy army of three hundred and five, how many people do you need to annihilate in each group?"

"Sixty-one enemy troops are needed for each group."

His Majesty Li Er was not calm in an instant, and this question and answer was like a cloud of peers.

There was no pause in the middle at all, when did the Zhijie family's Chu Mo be so smart and clever? Unscientific, huh?

Besides, how did they calculate the results?

Oral arithmetic? Mental arithmetic?

His Majesty Li Er's heart ignited a raging heart of gossip!

"Ahem...... cough ......" His Majesty Li Er coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Weichen see Your Majesty!"

"Weichen see Your Majesty!"

Tao Ran and Cheng Chumo reacted almost at the same time.

"Zhong Aiqing is exempt, I just heard the question of Chang'an, how did Captain Cheng calculate so quickly?" His Majesty Li Er asked with a puzzled expression.

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is based on the ninety-nine multiplication formula table taught by Chang Anhou!" Cheng Chumo replied respectfully.

"I haven't seen you calculate?" His Majesty Li Er thought to himself, you kid is still not telling the truth, this king is watching you not use the method of arithmetic.

"Back to Your Majesty, these simple number games of oral arithmetic and mental arithmetic will do." Cheng Chumo replied.

"Is that what you call the ninety-nine multiplication formula? Oral and mental arithmetic? ”

"Your Majesty." Cheng Chumo took the opportunity to take a shot. Let His Majesty Li Er Long Yan not be so embarrassed.

"Not bad, not bad. Today, I heard from Su Guogong that Chang'an Hou suggested that Cheng Xiaowei go to the Western Turks to adopt a policy of Huairou and lead the way for the recovery of the Western Turks after the Tang Dynasty. ”

"I never thought that in a few days, Chang'an Hou taught Captain Cheng so much to my surprise, it seems that I didn't come in vain today."

"Chief Yang, immediately draw up Zhao, Captain Feng Cheng is the envoy to the Western Turkic Tang Dynasty, and the specific list of missions will be decided by the cabinet after deliberation. Three days later, I will send an envoy to the Western Turks, and I will wait for the good news of your return. ”

"The minions obey."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Weichen will go all out to complete the mission and live up to Your Majesty's expectations."

"Okay, what a good one to go all out... I was very happy to hear it. ”

"Chang'anhou, I believe that your suggestion is completely feasible, and when Captain Cheng returns triumphantly, I will give you a celebration banquet."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Weichen just did what a courtier should do, Your Majesty praised it."

"If the ministers are all like you, I will really have peace of mind. Take me to see what you tried to eat. His Majesty Li Er said excitedly.

"Are these little buds? Will it mature in a few months? His Majesty Li Er looked at these small buds, as if he saw the spring of the entire Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, if everything is normal, it will mature within six months."

"Aiqing must take good care of these treasures, don't take it lightly......"
