Chapter 260: Climbing the Plow

The truth of confession and leniency was well explained by Li Er, and the day after he got the teacup, Li Chengqian was decisively released, but it was .......

"Your Highness, hurry up, Your Majesty is still waiting for you." On the path leading to the Lizheng Palace, Father-in-law Fang kept urging.

"I know, I said Lao Fang, are you urging or what, I'm already going fast enough." Li Chengqian was a little impatient when he was urged, so he stopped and said to his father-in-law with a tiger face.

"Yes...... But Your Majesty is over there in Yoshikura now! Father-in-law Fang looked at the arrogant Li Chengqian, and said with a smile.

"Yoshikura?" Li Chengqian blinked innocently, glanced back in the direction of the Li Zheng Palace, smacked his lips and said, "You old guy didn't say it earlier, the palace has gone so far." ”

In the face of such a shameless person, what can Father-in-law Fang say? Just now it was clearly said that the emperor was discussing matters at Yicang and summoned Li Chengqian over. This guy didn't listen carefully and went in the wrong direction, but now he is running to blame others,

"Hey, I said Lao Fang, what are you doing in a daze, my father is waiting, and I won't be careful to hit your board when the time comes." Li Chengqian chattered endlessly, as if Father-in-law Fang was really wrong.

"Oh, let's go, let's go." The old eunuch who has been by Li Er's side for seven or eight years can be said to have watched Li Chengqian grow up, and what can he say about Ya's shamelessness except to smile bitterly.

"By the way, Lao Fang, what is my father going to do in Yicang?" On the way, Li Chengqian chatted with Fang's father-in-law with a ride.

"Alas, I don't know what's going on with the weather this year, Henan Province and Hebei Province have had heavy snowfall for a while, and all the military rations shipped to Shuozhou are in the warehouse, and they can't be transported out at all." The old eunuch sighed and said slowly.

"Transporting grain to Shuozhou? Isn't that still in the hands of the anti-thief Liang Shidu? Li Chengqian thought for a moment and asked puzzled.

"Now that it has been recaptured, General Chai and General Xue are stationed there with 30,000 soldiers." The old eunuch knew that Li Chengqian had been locked up in the 'Lanruo Temple' for a long time, and the information was a little broken, so he explained to him softly.

Li Lizhen and Xiao Wu are little girls after all, and the things they hear are very limited, and basically the two of them have no chance to know about such military affairs, so it is not surprising that Li Chengqian does not know about this.

Discussing the affairs of Shuozhou, Li Chengqian and Old Eunuch Fang quickly rushed to Yicang in Chang'an County, and also saw Lao Li, who was furious.

"What are you doing, why are you here now!" As soon as Li Chengqian showed his head, he was grabbed by the old man and given a violent training.

"It's the fault of my son's ministers that my father is angry." Looking at the old eunuch's dry body and bones, Li Chengqian felt that it was better to take care of the matter by himself, otherwise the old eunuch would be beaten with a board, and he would be more than lucky.

"You have always been the acting supervisor of the capital, but you can tell me why Shuozhou only has two months of grain stockpiles." In view of Li Chengqian's good attitude in admitting his guilt, Li Er decided not to hold him accountable for being late, but only to investigate the issue of grain.

"Father, if you don't have enough food, it's just a burden for the army." In the face of the old man's anger, what can Li Chengqian say, the Tang military system is like this, there is indeed a lot of grain stored in two months, and the food carried by the army on many expeditions is only enough for one month.

Besides, if you really send half a year's grain to Shuozhou at one time, the old man is afraid that he will not be at ease again.

Li Er was also really anxious at this time, seeing that the 30,000 army was about to face the crisis of running out of food, and it would even affect next year's expedition to the Turks, the old man's eyes were red, he stared at Li Chengqian, gritted his teeth and said, "Transport?" It's really easy to say, now that the snow is closing the road, what do you take to transport it, do you have to carry it yourself! ”

"Of course, it's transported by car." The old man's anger made Li Chengqian's toothache tight.

If it weren't for the old man who had to ground himself for the sake of that broken teacup, how could such a situation happen.

"Lao Tzu said, now that the snow is closing the road, the carriage is not moving an inch at all, are you listening?" Li Chengqian's unhurried attitude made Lao Li's anger burn more and more.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is angry, this is a natural disaster, and it is no wonder that the prince is in front of you." Qin Qiong is a kind-hearted person, and when he saw Li Chengqian's scolded dog's blood, he pleaded with him.

The eldest grandson Wuji also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is a natural disaster, and there is indeed a lot of grain stored in two months, and I am afraid that it will violate the military system if I do more." ”

"Your Majesty, let Lao Cheng go, the right Wuwei is digging, and he will also dig the road." Cheng Yanjin is still as unreliable as ever, but his arrogance is commendable.

"Cheng Lao Pifu, you better save it, don't let Your Majesty dig you out when the time comes." Wei Chigong raised the bar and said.

"Shut up." Li Er took a deep breath of cold air, calmed himself down through the cold coming from his lungs, raised his eyes and swept over everyone, and said slowly: "The grain must be sent to Shuozhou no matter what, and the 30,000 Tang soldiers can't be allowed to go hungry to fight." ”

"Father, what are you worried about, didn't the sons just say that they would be sent by car?" Pretending to be confused with understanding is Li Chengqian's specialty.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the road has been blocked by heavy snow, the carriage can't get up, the waterway has been frozen, and it is also impossible to transport it." Fang Xuanling sighed and told Li Chengqian in detail what the difficulties he was facing now.

"You've tried to climb the plow, too?" Li Chengqian asked suspiciously.

Li Chengqian is still very confident in the plow, a means of transportation that has galloped on the land of Northeast China for countless years, and he does not believe that the plow will be useless in any case.

Sure enough, the facts were as Li Chengqian guessed, Cheng Yanjin stared at a pair of bull's eyes and asked, "What is a climbing plow?" ”

"Climbing the plow is ...... Never mind. Li Chengqian paused, turned his head and said to Li Jingxuan, who was standing aside, "Jingxuan, go find a wide bamboo board." ”

In the following time, the bewildered gaze of the crowd slowly turned to surprise, then to shock, and finally when a carriage was unloaded with two bamboo planks, and dragged around the world by a horse, all the eyes that intended to see the joke turned to despair.

This is the crushing, the intellectual crushing caused by information asymmetry, and from this crushing, Li Chengqian has obtained the pleasure from the spiritual to the physical; The courtiers were mentally and physically tormented; As for Li Er...... His Majesty, the Great Emperor of the Tang Empire, was in pain and happy at this time.

But this crushing is intellectually in Lao Li's opinion, which makes the old man feel that he is very embarrassed.

However, looking at the courtiers who were also crushed, Lao Li felt that it was not bad to have such a monster-like son, at least he could appreciate the desperate faces of this group of bastards who always like to find fault with themselves from time to time.
