Li Daozheng has lived a dignified and upright life, but he has only done one thing that he is sorry for, and the person he used to be sorry for is now standing in front of him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Originally, he could choose not to stand in front of him, the world is very big, one lives in Chang'an City, and the other lives outside Chang'an City, only dozens of miles apart, but he and he have not met him for more than 20 years, Li Ji has sent his servants and cavalry dozens of times over the years to find Li Daozheng's whereabouts, but they have all returned in vain.

However, the world is also very small, ordinary days, ordinary streets, inadvertently raising your eyes is destined to be the fate of reunion after a long absence, as for the grievances or grievances after the reunion, if you can't laugh at it, then you will pay it back seriously.

Li Ji and Li Daozheng couldn't laugh at it, but they didn't know how to repay it. It's been too long, so long that it seems that the past has become a lifetime, and I always feel that it is a matter of the previous life. What's more, if the two talk about the grievances of the year, I'm afraid no one can tell whether it is a grievance or a grievance, Li Daozheng has done something sorry for Li Ji, this is the only one, but more than 20 years ago, what Li Daozheng did was really worthy of Li Ji.

The bustling street party committee is really not a good place to bring up the grievances of the old years, but Li Ji and Li Daozheng are unaware, ignoring the frightened and awe-inspiring eyes of passers-by, and ignoring the cowardly figure of Wuhou who patrols the street and does not dare to approach.

Seeing Li Daozheng kneeling in front of him, Li Ji was still stunned, his expression was unpredictable, and the conversation between the two went back and forth, Cheng Yanjin and Niu Jinda probably heard the meaning on the side, and then the two looked at each other and found that each other had an expression of disbelief.

Li Su and Li Ji are relatives, and they are in-laws' uncles and nephews?

Rao is two generals who have been fighting for a long time, and they are still buzzing in their ears by this fact.

Li Ji didn't seem to believe it, and after being stunned for a long time, Li Ji said authentically: "The 'Li Su' you are talking about, is it ...... 'that' Li Su?" ”

The question was very strange, but Li Daozheng understood, and nodded firmly: "It's 'that' Li Su, the 'that' Li Su that both General Cheng and General Niu know." ”

Li Ji still looked stunned, and muttered, "It turns out that he ...... It's Yingniang's child! Yes, it should be her child, I felt familiar when I saw him for the first time, the old man only thought it was an illusion, it turned out that it was not an illusion, it was really my sister's child......"

Looking down at Li Daozheng, Li Ji's eyes were still full of resentment and anger, but they were still mixed with a bit of complicated colors.

"You have never knelt down to anyone in your life, you have always been an iron-clad man in the years you have followed the old man, and today you are kneeling down for your son and begging for someone, which shows that you really love him, Li Changsheng, you heard clearly, the old man can't wait to kill you with his own hands, the things of the year are not over, wait for Li Subao to come out, and the grievances between you and me will be settled slowly!"

Li Daozheng lowered his head and said: "Thank you, General, and I have changed my name now to Li Daozheng." ”

Li Ji was stunned: "Li Daozheng? Can you be a rough man with such a name? ”

Li Daozheng said calmly: "Yingniang gave it to me, she said, since she is incognito and looks together, all kinds of past dust should be cut off with a knife, and there is no nostalgia, so she changed my name, the name is 'Daozheng', called 'Dao Zheng', and she is 'righteous and peaceful'. ”

Li Ji's eyes turned red again, nodded slowly, and sighed: "It's her temperament, she is always so strong, I said a few heavy words in a hurry, and I disappeared you and her the next day, I'm afraid it was also her idea to elope away from home, right?" ”

Li Daozheng nodded: "Yes, she was really angry back then, and she didn't want me to be wronged, so she pulled me out of the Li family that night, saying that she wanted to break off with Li Jiaen, and I didn't see it in this life, and even wanted to change my surname when I changed my name, but I missed the grace of the Li family's adoption, I didn't dare or forget, I would rather die than change my surname, Yingniang had no choice, so I had to leave me the surname Li." ”

Li Ji seemed to have been hit by a huge blow, and said gloomily: "It's just a few angry words, why are you so ruthless and want to break off with Li Jiaen?" ”

Li Daozheng sighed: "Where is she ruthless? General, we did not go far after leaving home, the place where we live is only dozens of miles away from Chang'an City, every evening, the sun sets, she always stands at the entrance of the village, looking at the direction of Chang'an City stupidly, every year on the birthday of the general, she also sells two catties of wine from the entrance of the village, closes the door and drinks alone, drunk and sleeps, every day of family sacrifice to the ancestors, she will also take me, find a remote and uninhabited field outside the village, light candles and burn incense, face the north and worship, and then cry again...... General, the Li family gave birth to her and raised her, how can she give it up? I know that she dreamed of going back, and I persuaded her countless times, but it was just ...... She is so strong, she has been stubborn all her life, she has survived for a lifetime, and she has never been able to step into the house again until she dies......"

Li Daozheng couldn't help but burst into tears as he spoke, Li Ji also shed tears, stomped his feet while crying, and sighed: "What is the big threshold that your family can't pass?" Why spend your life missing for one breath! ”

Looking at Li Daozheng with tears pouring down, Li Ji took a deep breath, tried to calm down his emotions, pointed at him, and said, "You, go home with me first, and talk about the things of the year slowly, the important thing now is to keep Li Su down......"

Turning his head to look at Cheng Biting Jin and Niu Jinda, Li Ji arched his hand towards the two of them, and said: "A little family matter for many years, teach the two to laugh, Li Su is the nephew of the two, but for me, he is not only a junior, but a long-lost relative, two, this time is different from that time, how to protect Li Su, the old man has to exert his strength, and please also echo one or two with the old man." ”

Cheng Yanjin and Niu Jinda glanced at each other, nodded silently, Cheng Yanjin, who was used to laughing and scolding, looked much more serious at the moment, and he understood the meaning of Li Ji's words. Just now, Li Su is everyone's junior, and the three generals interceded for him because of the love of these years, because of everyone's love for Li Su, but today I met with Li Daozheng, and after learning that Li Su is Li Ji's nephew, the nature of the matter is different, Li Su has become a relative, a real blood relative, Li Ji out of the protection of his nephew, out of guilt for his sister for many years, in short, the Li family is going to die this time to protect Li Su.

To give a simple example, just before, the three generals could only say that they could do their best and do their best, if it didn't work out, the three of them would have no choice, but this moment is different, knowing that Li Su is Li Ji's nephew, Li Ji wants to protect him, and he must use all the resources and connections accumulated by the Li family for many years, it can be said that at all costs, whether it is favor or kindness that has been saved over the years, he should use it without hesitation, all just to keep this nephew.

This is the difference between blood and non-blood, which is very realistic, but it is also a fact.

********************************************************************************

Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace.

Li Su naturally didn't know about the scene that happened in the Chang'an Street Market at this moment, let alone that his identity had changed dramatically.

He was still sitting opposite Li Shimin, the two of them stared at each other, and they hadn't said a word for half an hour.

In terms of age, everyone is decades apart, there is not only a generation gap between the two, it is simply a chasm, in terms of character, Li Shimin's stubborn and conceited character is also what Li Su hates the most, on common topics, this is even more useless, Li Shimin is a landowner with an official identity, and the thing he thinks about every day is to stare at the map, thinking about how to expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty a little, and then expand a little, and Li Su, three full and one pour a day, a typical mixed food and death do not seek progress, the two can still ask and answer when talking about business, If you talk about some personal topics, it is simply not speculative, and after three sentences, there is a strong urge to stab each other......

The hall was quiet, and the atmosphere was awkwardly quiet.

Li Shimin is not boring, he has nothing to say, but he just doesn't do anything, just staring at Li Su's face, his eyes don't blink, staring at Li Su cold, embarrassed There is an urge to simply exile to Qiannan, how good Qiannan is, you can see the waterfall, visit Miao Village, if you are in a good mood, you simply turn over the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and go to Tubo to do something, now although it is a barbaric land, bringing a tent to hunt some game is only regarded as wild survival training, even if you continue to go back to Dali Temple to squat in the prison cell, it is comfortable, It's better than being stared at like a prey with these dragon's eyes......

Li Su sat still, twisted his body uncomfortably, and broke the awkward silence with a dry smile.

"Your Majesty, today's weather is really hahaha......"

Li Shimin snorted: "Does 'hahaha' mean that the weather is very good?" ”

Li Su said seriously: "Yes." ”

Li Shimin smiled but didn't smile: "No yin or yang, no sunny or rainy, how can you come to 'hahaha'?" ”

Li Su pursed his lips secretly.

Chatting with this kind of person who can't chat can release the violent factor in human nature in minutes, to put it simply, he just wants to kill him.

If you continue to talk like this, you might as well sit awkwardly.

So Li Su decided to shut up.

The temple fell silent again.

After a long time, Li Shimin suddenly said: "The former prince Cheng Qian rebelled, did you participate?" ”

Li Su was startled, and hurriedly said: "The minister is just an idle official, where do you dare to get involved in such a headless thing, Your Majesty don't scare me......"

Li Shimin smiled, laughing so much that Li Su straightened his hair, and he couldn't tell the meaning of the smile for a while.

"Since you said that you didn't participate, then you didn't participate, there are more than 200 courtiers involved in this case, one more is involved, one less is involved, in fact, it doesn't matter much, but after the careful trial of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, many doubts cannot be explained, for example, the fire in the Sifang Pavilion at the right time, and it is said that Hou Junji's rebellion is also related to you, and it is barely a great achievement, but you are a bad affair, Li Su, in front of me, you might as well say, are you loyal or traitor? What should I say of you? ”

Li Su's eyelids jumped, and he lowered his head and said: "The minister is a loyal minister, only occasionally make a little mistake, occasionally do something wrong, even if it is something that is done in the eyes of outsiders, it is not necessarily really wrong, ten years, twenty years, thousands of years, future generations will give the minister a fair judgment." ”

Li Shimin laughed: "I heard it, you still feel that there is nothing wrong with being bad and kissing, you have grievances in your heart, right?" ”

Li Su raised his head and looked directly at him, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister really doesn't feel that it is wrong to be bad and close to him, the minister is still the same sentence, the only thing the minister does wrong is not to hide it from His Majesty." ”

"Why?"

"The minister can't come up with a reason now, and the policy of harmony has been there since the Han Dynasty, and it has become a practice in all dynasties for hundreds of years, and the Tang Dynasty is inevitably vulgar, even if the minister explains a thousand words now, His Majesty will not feel that the minister is right, so the minister is waiting for the eunuch to bring something, and then His Majesty will know whether the minister's approach is wrong or right."

Li Shimin was puzzled: "This thing ...... How important is it? ”

"In the next thousand years, Ze will be a peaceful and stable thing."

Li Shimin stared at him for a long time, and finally smiled freely: "Okay, I'll wait and see." ”

…………

The eunuch came faster than expected, it only took two hours to come and go, watching the panting and dusty eunuch appear outside the hall, Li Su knew that he ...... Definitely speeding.

After entering the hall, the eunuch didn't have time to catch his breath, so he hurriedly walked to Li Su with two small brocade bags in his hand and handed him the brocade bags.

Li Su smiled and said hard work, and then opened the two small brocade bags, and then Li Shimin also came over and stared at the two small bags with a curious expression.

There was nothing unusual about the bag, but what was surprising was that the contents of the bag turned out to be two ears of rice and two handfuls of white and crystal rice.

Li Shimin saw that it took a long time to bring such an ordinary ear of rice, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and he said coldly with a gloomy face: "Li Su, you'd better explain it to me clearly, this is what you call 'Ze is Wanmin'?" Are you a three-year-old child? ”

Li Su didn't speak, he didn't explain, after taking out the ears of rice from the bag, he carefully held them, and with a solemn expression, he divided them into two piles and put them on the table in front of him.

Two handfuls of ears of rice lay quietly on the table, emitting a golden glow.

Li Su arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, this is what the minister said about 'Ze is the people', Your Majesty, please calm your anger, are you willing to listen to the minister's explanation?" ”

Li Shimin's face was gloomy, and he snorted angrily: "Say, won't my Zhenguan Dynasty give people a chance to speak?" But you'd better convince me of your reasons, otherwise, it's not just as simple as exile in Qiannan! ”

Threat! Scared the baby to death......

Li Su pursed his lips imperceptibly, picked up one of the two piles of rice on the table, held the rice in the palm of his hand with both hands, handed it to Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the rice harvested by the Tianzi Liangtian in the minister's family this year, you look at this particle, this fullness, and the color and brightness of the rice......"

Li Shimin frowned, but he still approached and looked at it carefully for a moment, then raised his head and said coldly: "So what?" ”

Li Su smiled, then picked up another pile of rice on the table, and said, "Your Majesty, please look at it again, this is the rice produced in Zhenla Country this year, the same, please look at its grains, fullness, and color......

Li Shimin's brows furrowed even deeper: "Zhenla Country? Zhenla near Nanzhao? ”

"Yes."

Li Shimin approached again to observe carefully, and after a while, he straightened up and said: "There is a difference, the particles produced by your family are smaller, and they are not as full as those of Zhenla Country, the color is yellow, and the white of Zhenla Country is as white as jade......

Li Su put down the rice, picked up another ear of rice, and said: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the ear of rice planted in the good field of the minister's family, look at the extent to which the ear of rice is bent by the grain of rice......

Picking up another ear of rice, Li Su continued: "This is the ear of rice from Zhenla Kingdom, I can't understand the words, the minister put these two ears of rice together, Your Majesty can compare them intuitively." ”

Saying that, Li Su lifted the two rice ears side by side, and Li Shimin got closer, looked at them carefully, and compared.

After a long time, Li Shimin nodded and said: "There is indeed a difference, your rice ears are smaller, the stems are slightly thinner, although the rice will bend the ears, but the degree is not as good as the ears of the Zhenla country, the rice ears of the Zhenla country are large, there is no mang, the pressure weight, you see the tip of the rice ear, almost level with the roots, it shows the weight of the rice weight, and then look at the number of grains produced by the two rice ears, obviously your family is not as good as the Zhenla country, the rice ears of others are nearly one-third more than your family, it can be seen that the rice ears of the Zhenla country are ......"

Having said this, Li Shimin suddenly paused, and then his expression became stunned, his eyes gradually released a terrifying light, staring at the rice ears of Zhenla Country, and then looking at the rice ears produced by Li Su's family, after looking at it for a while, Li Shimin simply snatched the two rice ears in Li Su's hand, held them in his hands and compared them carefully, his expression changed rapidly, becoming more and more exciting, and his breathing became unconsciously short.

"Granules, granules...... Count the particles! Li Shimin's expression was crazy, and he personally picked the grains on the two ears of rice one by one, and very carefully divided them into two piles far apart, so as not to confuse any of them.

Li Su quietly watched Li Shimin bury his head in plucking rice, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously hooked up a shallow smile.

After picking all the grains on the two ears of rice, Li Shimin almost lay on the table, carefully counting them one by one, once, twice, for fear that he would not count clearly, and counted twice, until the number was determined, Li Shimin's eyes became more and more shining, revealing a bit of crazy joy.

"The ears of rice produced by Datang are twenty-six per plant, and one is produced in Zhenlaguo, one plant...... Thirty-five, one-third more than the Tang Dynasty, if one acre of fertile land is the same, then the Datang rice production, per mu will be over...... Overcharge ......"

Li Su smiled and answered: "The minister has calculated at home, each mu can yield nearly two hundred catties more, if the climate and soil differences are deducted, one mu of land can also be harvested one hundred and sixty or seventy catties more, if the introduction of Zhenla rice seeds, in the Tang Dynasty to promote planting, within ten years the country's grain production, will be more than today's output by one-third, if it is adapted to local conditions, selected in Jiangnan, Lingnan, Jiannan three provinces to widely promote planting, this number will be greater...... Another great advantage of this thing is that if it is cultivated in a suitable place in the southern climate, it can be harvested twice or even three times a year......"

Li Shimin was stunned again, and said in a lost voice: "Two or even three ripe? You...... But in the middle of it? ”

"The minister does not dare to bully the king,...... Well, I have been deceived before, but this time I really didn't. ”

Looking at Li Shimin's shocked look, Li Su continued: "Your Majesty, the minister remembers that in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, the household department has counted the approximate population of the Tang Dynasty, with a total of 3.14 million households in the world, 12 million people, and a total of less than 8 million hectares of agricultural land in the country. How much grain will be grown in these more than 3 million hectares of cultivated land, and how many more people will be fed by this grain! ”

Li Su gradually straightened up, looked at Li Shimin, and said, "Your Majesty just asked the minister to explain why he destroyed the Tang Dynasty Tubo and his relatives, but the minister couldn't explain it just now, but now it's okay......"

Pointing to the rice in Li Shimin's hand, Li Su said: "This ear of rice from Zhenla Country is the reason for the minister!" The prince of Zhenla studied in Chang'an since childhood, last year's Lantern Festival met the eldest daughter of the king of Jiangxia, Princess Wencheng, the two of them were happy, and they were privately engaged for life, the prince of Zhenla originally planned to ask the king of Jiangxia for a national gift after the year, but he did not expect the Tubo people to kill him halfway, and he did not expect that His Majesty actually designated Princess Wencheng to marry the Tubo and relatives, all the plans were disrupted by His Majesty's will, and the country of Zhenla is located in the southern Xinjiang, the country is small and weak, and the army is not in order, although the Tang Dynasty is the suzerain, but the Tang Dynasty and His Majesty have never seen this small country with their eyes, No one knew that this humble little country actually had a peerless treasure......"

Grabbing a handful of rice on the case, letting the white and crystal rice grains leak from his fingers, Li Su said softly: "This treasure can't help Your Majesty expand its territory, and it can't help my king and master to win on the battlefield like the earth-shattering thunder, but...... It can make the people eat more than one bite of rice in their mouths, save two catties of food in the time of famine, live one or two more lives, one more people who do not starve, and one less rebel people, this thing is God-given, help the people and the country, just for the extra mouthful of rice in the people's mouths, the minister feels that it is really nothing to destroy a peace and affinity, even if the price is to fight with the Tubo country, for this treasure, it is worth starting a war!
