Chapter 44: Liu Jun is back
Li Jie's words made everyone speechless, and he silently got up and got out of the way. Li Jie was about to turn around and get into the car, but the people around him knelt down and kowtowed one by one, Li Jie hurriedly ordered someone to help, but no one got up. Li Jie had no choice but to get into the car, and everywhere the convoy passed, the people all knelt down and kowtowed.
Liu Qi, who was following the car, said to everyone beside him, "Your Highness's move unexpectedly won the hearts of the people!" Everyone nodded yes. Li Jie left, and the plaque at the door was taken down and replaced with a new plaque "Weicheng Gewu College". A large number of craftsmen entered it and began to transform it.
In the new study, Li Jie said to everyone, "Now that we have nearly three states, what should we do next?" Liu Qi arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, at present, our strength is still too small, we should accumulate strength, and it is not appropriate to use swords and soldiers during this time." Li Jie said, "I have this intention, the autumn harvest has basically ended, the Ministry of Industry should immediately hire manpower to vigorously consolidate the water conservancy facilities, dig wells where there is a shortage of water, and then use windmills to lift water, press the surface, etc., to let the people see the power of craftsmanship, and the roads between the states should also be tightened up, and the road standards are according to the Qin Straight Road standard!" ”
Liu Ziyu arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, how much does it cost to do this?" I'm afraid the household department can't afford it! Li Jie smiled, "I have thought of this, the well windmillers rent it evenly among each family." After the road is repaired, all vehicles on the road will have to pay fees except for the military, and government vehicles will not be an exception. And you can find those businessmen to build roads in joint ventures, so that you will have a lot less pressure! ”
Liu Ziyu arched his hand: "The minister has been taught!" Li Jie looked at Zhao Fei again, "Dean Zhao, how is Gewu Academy?" Zhao Fei arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, there are now three thousand students in Gewu Academy, but there is not enough place at present, and the number of gentlemen is also insufficient!" ”
Li Jie thought for a while and said, "Set up schools in large villages with many people in various places, based on Confucianism and arithmetic. Each county selects those who are excellent in character and learning to enter the county school, and the county school adds physical chemistry. Those with excellent grades will enter Gewu Academy! Zhao Fei arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, what is physical chemistry?" ”
Li Jie said: "Why does the lid jump when the water is boiled?" Why does Kong Ming's lantern fly into the sky when it is lit? It's physics! Why can coal be baked into coke? Why can gunpowder explode? This is chemistry! Physical chemistry can make great changes in our lives, and many things that you thought were impossible will be discovered before your eyes. I'll give you the physics and chemistry tutorials I've written later, and I'll give you the rest of the work! ”
Zhao Fei arched his hand, "Your Highness Xie, the minister will definitely do his best!" Li Jie turned to Chen Ziqi again: "How is the household?" Chen Ziqi arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, at present, the grain collected in various places has been put into storage, and because of the field tax implemented by His Royal Highness, the people's enthusiasm for farming is unprecedentedly high, and a total of nearly 9 million stone grain has been put into storage. And this is only for the use of the army and the government, and the people have a lot of grain, and the people have already started to trade with grain. ”
Li Jie was surprised, "Oh! There is so much food! Chen Ziqi said, "Your Highness, because you asked to plant barley, the yield of this product is much higher than that of wheat and corn. "Good! Very good! Li Jie nodded with satisfaction. I wonder how many households we have now? Li Jie asked again. Your Highness, at present we have more than 200,000 households, excluding Luoyang. Displaced people from other places continue to pour in. Chen Ziqi returned. Li Jie nodded and looked at Qin Fang.
"General Qin, how is the current strength of our army!" Qin Fang arched his hand, "Your Highness, at present, our army has 50,000, and the total number of civilian troops in various places is also 50,000!" "Good! The passes around Luoyang should all be firmly guarded to ensure the safety of Luoyang, Liu Yunzhang is still staying in Luoyang, Liu Jun is doing a good job, let him come back for a trip, there are important things to discuss. At the beginning of spring next year, we will choose the direction to use troops. Li Jie said, "Oh! ”
It was getting dark, and everyone took their leave. Li Jie accompanied the nurse to eat, "Your Highness, don't work so hard, pay attention to your body." The nurse put a mouthful of food in Li Jie's bowl. Li Jie smiled and said, "Nurse, don't worry, I'm fine!" The nurse sighed, "You kid is very strong!" Li Jie smiled and said, "Nurse, let's go all the way, you have also seen the tragic situation on the road, my heart hurts!" Since others don't care, then I'll take care of it, if I escaped from Chang'an just for me and you in the past, then now for all the people of Datang, I have to work hard! "The nurse is crying! Li Jie coaxed for a while before coaxing the nurse away.
Looking at Xing'er and Manniang who were about to slip away, Li Jie suddenly remembered, he meowed! I've been busy for the past half a year, and I've forgotten about these two girls. "Stop" to stop the two who slipped out, Li Jie touched his chin and circled around the two. He smiled and said, "Two beauties, why are you going!" Manniang protected Xing'er, who was blushing, and said, "Let's go to rest, I don't know why His Highness stopped us." ”
Li Jie smiled and said, "Go rest, go boil water for me, I want to take a bath!" Manniang pulled up the stars and left, "Your Highness is looking for someone else." Li Jie's angry finger Manniang "Stop, you two are my personal maids!" Manniang was stunned! Yes! We're Yahuan, and it's the kind that fits us closely!
Looking at the proud Li Jie, Manniang "peeked", pulled Xing'er out, and the angry Li Jie shouted, "Dead Nizi, dare to run!" Manniang turned around, blushed and said, "Didn't you let the two of us boil water!" Then he dragged the blushing Xing'er and ran away.
Lying in the wooden poke, Li Jie hummed a song comfortably, the days of corruption are so good! The two girls were rubbing Li Jie with red faces. Xing'er is very gentle, and it is very comfortable to rub Li Jie. Oh! Manniang is so violent, it hurts me to death!
Li Jie, who had taken a bath, was feeling comfortable and was about to sleep, when he saw the two girls running out again, Li Jie shouted, "Stop, run out again, you two sleep with me tonight!" ”
Li Jie, who was lying on the bed, told jokes to the two Nizi, and the second daughter couldn't stop laughing. Looking at Manniang, Li Jie found for the first time that Manniang was so good-looking when she smiled, and couldn't help but kiss Manniang lightly on the face, Manniang was stunned! Suddenly, he suddenly covered his head with the quilt, and his heart was beating and his face was like a red cloth.
Xing'er covered her mouth and smiled, "Your Highness, you bully Manniang, I'll tell the nurse to go tomorrow!" Li Jie smiled: "Then let's go to the nurse tomorrow!" After speaking, he kissed Xing'er on the face again. Yikes! Xing'er was so frightened that she hid in the bed, "Your Highness, you are so bad!" ”
Li Jie took Xing'er in his arms with a wicked smile, and kissed Xing'er on the face, Xing'er closed her eyes with a red face. Li Jie lowered his head and kissed Xing'er, this moment is so beautiful!
It was dawn, and Li Jie got up. The two girls had already prepared the toiletries, and Li Jie, who had cleaned up, moved around the yard for a while. The weather was good, and Li Jie was going to take the two girls out for a walk.
Opening the door of the mansion, Li Jie was dumbfounded. Not far from the gate of the house, there are countless ordinary people standing. Seeing Li Zhuo coming, I don't know who shouted: "Your Highness has come out!" The common people all knelt down with a "suddenly" sound. Li Jie went out the door hard, and the two girls followed behind with their heads down.
Along the way, countless people kowtowed to Li Jie, gritted their teeth and insisted on turning around, and Li Jie escaped. The angry Li Jie ordered someone to call Feng Xi, but Feng Xi was still appointed by Li Jie as the Taishou of Weicheng. As soon as Feng Xigang entered the door, "What's the matter?" Why so many people? Li Jie opened his mouth and asked, Feng Xi arched his hand, "Your Highness, the people are grateful to you!" Can't express so so! Li Jie couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, and ordered Feng Xi to issue a notice to inform the people that this should not be done in the future!
Li Jie, who was bored in the house, could only pick up the pen again and start writing physical chemistry textbooks, this era is still relatively backward, there are many things that cannot be experimented at all, Li Jie can only write textbooks based on reality. After a busy day, I whispered with two girls at night, and the two girls blushed and talked softly with Li Jie until they fell asleep.
At noon the next day, Liu Jun rushed back. Entering the study, Liu Jun bowed and saluted, "You did a good job!" Li Jie said. Liu Jun saluted again: "I am willing to serve His Highness!" "Hmm! You don't have an official position at the moment, so that's not good! Let you be the Sima of Luoyang Shangzhou first! Liu Jun was overjoyed, knelt down and kowtowed, "Xie Yanxia, the minister will never give up!" ”
Li Jie said again, "At present, we can't come forward yet, and we still have to release the news in the name of Liu Yunzhang, the Mengjin ferry is too important, and it is too close to the river, so we must strengthen our defense." Liu Jun arched his hand and said, "Weichen understands!" ”
"Also, to strengthen the rescue of the people of Luoyang, but not alms, you first go to Weicheng Xinxiang to see and learn, and then write something for me to see. Oh! It's been a long time since you've been home, haven't you? "Liu Junyi arched his hand" Yes! Li Jie smiled, "Then give you ten days off, and go to Luoyang by yourself after ten days!" ”
Liu Jun retired, and when he got out of the mansion, Liu Jun was excited and wanted to shout a few times. Shangzhou Sima is an official position from the fifth grade, and he is now an official master. Riding a horse all the way, my daughter has grown up again! I miss my wife and daughter.
ran all the way with people, and finally arrived in Xinxiang when it was almost dark. A figure on the city wall was so familiar, "Lan'er, Lan'er!" Liu Jun shouted excitedly, and the figure on the city wall shook violently! Suddenly it was gone. Liu Jun was in a hurry to beat his horse and galloped, and as soon as he arrived at the city gate, he met his wife holding his daughter.
Jumping off the horse, Liu Jun stepped forward and hugged his wife and daughter in his arms. His wife's face was full of tears, but there was a happy smile on her face. The daughter stretched out her hand and said, "Daddy hug, daddy hug!" Liu Jun hugged his daughter with one hand, and his wife with the other hand said with a smile, "Okay, let's go home!" ”
The family happily went home, and when they entered the courtyard, Liu Jun put down his daughter and knelt down in front of his father, "Dad, the child is back!" Liu Laocai's eyes were full of tears, and he said happily, "Okay, good, just come back!" "The subordinate butler personally took people to arrange food and accommodation. The family of four was eating together, and Liu Jun put his daughter on his lap and fed his daughter stutter from time to time. Liu Laocai asked, "If you come back this time, you won't leave!" ”
