Chapter 016: Three-year ban
On this morning, after Li Shimin finished doing a set of radio gymnastics without broadcasting in the garden outside the Legislative Palace, one of the attendants who had been waiting for him presented him with a white-folded cloth handkerchief soaked in hot water, and another brought him tea soup to rinse his mouth.
When he finished cleaning, another attendant brought him a basket of steaming sauce and meat buns.
Li Shimin grabbed one, ate it while walking into the hall, and went to serve the tofu brain held on the other side. He personally stirred the tofu brain with the chopped soybeans, pepper, sesame oil and fish sauce piled on top, and ate it beautifully, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Sure enough, this salted bean curd is delicious!" As he spoke, he stepped into the inner sanctum.
Li Shimin was fond of Hu food, and in his early years, the imperial diet always served some Turkic or Hui (hé) food; In recent years, it seems that in order to share the suffering with the people, there is a lot of food reduction, and I have to drink a bowl of purple sauce every day; In recent days, however, the situation has changed.
Hearing this, the eldest grandson in the hall put down the porcelain bowl in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth with a silk silk, and smiled gently:
"If you want to talk about bean curd, the concubine loves sweetness even more."
Li Shimin's steps were brisk, eating while walking. When he sat down on the bed, he couldn't hold back anymore and laughed.
"Hahaha, it's fun, it's fun!" As he spoke, Li Shimin picked up the small half bowl of sweet bean curd left in front of Changsun and drank it cleanly.
"According to you, according to you, sweet bean curd is more delicious, hahaha......" After finishing, he directly wiped his sleeve to his mouth, and saw that the eyes of several attendants next to him widened.
The eldest grandson glanced at Li Shimin helplessly. She wanted to take the bowl of salted bean curd like Li Shimin, but after all, she couldn't stand the saltiness of the fish sauce, so she just blew it and gave up, changing the topic:
"Second brother, let's hurry up and change your clothes, today is just looking at the sun, and we are going to hold a Wangchao."
In the Tang Dynasty, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Shuowang Dynasty was held, and those who held the rank of nine or more military officials in Beijing should be present. Different from the usual attendance of the five grades or more and the enshrinement officials, the staff wailang, the superintendent of the imperial history, and the doctor Taichang, the Shuowang court visit is held in the Taiji Hall, which is not a short distance away from the Lizheng Hall where the couple live.
"It's okay, I'm riding my 'BMW' today." Li Shimin made a gesture of holding the horns of the bull, which looked quite funny, and the eldest grandson finally couldn't help but laugh at him.
A few attendants next to him looked at their noses and noses, and their noses looked at their hearts; There is no sorrow, no joy, no self.
The eldest grandson could understand why her husband was so happy.
Three years ago, the Xuan Turtle felt the suffering of the mortal world, damaged himself, went against the sky, and stole the embers of Ziwei from the astral boundary—Shu Hui himself said so at the time.
The turtle seals the embers of crape myrtle into a mold called Aspergillus purpurea. With the miraculous power of this mold that can turn plants and trees into sugar sauce, even though Datang has experienced the ravages of drought, locust plagues, hailstorms, etc., and more than half of the prefectures and counties have not harvested for three consecutive years, but there has never been starvation!
All farmers and craftsmen who planted and cultivated according to the season, or participated in the mowing and logging work organized by the government, could receive the "crape myrtle star sauce" given by the sage emperor and the god Xuangui in times of famine by virtue of the inspection of the officials of each pavilion and township.
That's right, Shu Hui's identity as a god has been unanimously recognized by the court, but at the request of Shu Hui himself, his personal information should be kept secret. Although the people knew that there was a turtle to save the common people, they didn't know who the turtle was.
Li Shimin's saintly merits are also indispensable. According to Xuan Gui, the crape myrtle star is the star of the emperor, and the reason why the crape myrtle embers he stole were able to hide from the sky and the sea, and show their magical powers in the land of Shenzhou without being discovered by the heavens, was all thanks to the cover of Li Shimin's imperial purple qi.
However, after all, it cannot be concealed, and the longer it passes, the greater the chance of being discovered by the heavens. Therefore, Shu Hui warned Li Shimin that he must eliminate the strains controlled by the state capitals as soon as possible after the harvest, and only leave a small amount in the imperial city of Chang'an, where the emperor's purple qi is the strongest, to meet the needs of emergencies.
Although Li Shimin no longer needs to worry about the lack of food for the people in the past three years, the Gyeonggi locust plague in the second year of Zhenguan only issued an order to give a hundred officials and a hundred locust banquets, and also included a locust dish in the state banquet, which looks quite chic, but he has always had his own worries.
That is the fear that one day, the crape myrtle star will be haunted by green light, which means that the theft of the embers has been discovered. Although Shu Hui told him that it could be remedied at this time, as long as all the strains that were left out were destroyed within three months, there would be no disaster, but how could he be willing to let his "protection" of Datang be seen by the world to the limit?
Wait for the harvest year to actively hide the mushrooms, it will appear to be at ease!
In the past three years, the Taishi Bureau (Houqin Tianjian) has been paying attention to the changes in the inner crape myrtle (North Star) under the urging of Li Shimin all the time, but whenever there is a moon halo alternating between sunny and rainy weather, it will also make Li Shimin worry for several days.
He didn't know that Shu Hui was purely tricking him. Although trees are drought tolerant than grains, they also have a longer growth cycle. If this Aspergillus purpurea spreads in this period of smallholder economy, it will undoubtedly cause a devastating blow to the production model and the ecological environment.
Li Shimin has been worried for nearly three years, and now he is finally free! This year, the world is big [rěn], and now all the good news from all over the country is a bumper harvest, and at this moment, a bucket of rice in Chang'an City is only six yuan.
His imperial purple qi successfully persevered until the famine was eliminated without dropping the chain, which made Li Shimin deeply feel that he had fulfilled the responsibility of an emperor.
How does this upset him?
Although on the surface of the facts, he is only delusional. However, in terms of abstract and deep meaning, it is Li Shimin's identity as the true son of heaven, the awe-inspiring and inviolable imperial power, that makes the lower-level officials and people dare not disobey the holy order.
Otherwise, once the strain leaks and goes to other countries, it will be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty and the world.
Li Shimin imagined that the good news that would appear in the Taiji Hall today was frequent, and the scene of praise from hundreds of officials, he felt that his whole body was hot and unbearable, and he needed a cup of iced tea to enjoy it.
It was also Shu Hui who said that his cultivation was damaged, and there were too many nobles in Chang'an who were not conducive to recovery, otherwise Li Shimin really wanted to take him to the palace to live! Now he has to keep Yuan Tiangang, whose term of office has expired, to continue to take care of Huojing, and recall Shu Hui and him back to Chang'an at the end of the next term.
Well, according to Shu Hui, once all the strains outside Chang'an are eliminated, he will no longer have to spend cultivation to conceal the heavenly opportunity, and he should be able to speed up his recovery.
While thinking about it, Li Shimin took off his robe with the help of his attendant and changed into a round-necked robe. After Zhenguan, unless there are big court meetings such as the Yuan Day and the Winter Solstice, the emperor only wears regular clothes even if he goes to court.
When he got out of the palace gate, there were already two small yellow doors holding a wooden two-wheeled cart waiting here.
The wheels of these two wheels are made of cork and wrapped in cowhide and cowhide arranged in a straight line, and the front and rear wheels are generally the size. On the front wheel, a little smaller, there is a pair of pedals staggered on both sides, and there are two long rods on the inside of the wooden shaft connecting the pedals, which are connected to the same protruding wooden shaft on the rear wheel.
It's clearly a bike that's so raw and rough that people don't dare to recognize it.
Li Shimin, who was a little fatter than before, stepped on the small saddle at the top of the triangular frame quite dexterously, held the simple dragon horn without brakes with both hands, quickly retracted his legs on the pedals of the front wheel, and kicked hard-
His "BMW" "creaked" and gradually disappeared into the Lizheng Gate under the eyes of the four or so military guards, a group of chamberlains, and the eldest grandson......
It's been three years!
……
It has been more than three years since Shu Hui came to this world.
Three years ago, Shu Hui got a windfall while brewing sweet noodle sauce, and the system rewarded him with a mold that required 50 million RP points to give to others.
This mold, called Aspergillus purple, represents the pinnacle of human genetic engineering, which can convert all kinds of indigestible or indigestible organic matter into various nutrients that can be easily absorbed by the human body through efficient fermentation - especially cellulose that exists in abundance in nature!
When people are very hungry, they will eat grass roots and gnaw on tree bark, just to get a little starch and use pectin to absorb water and produce a sense of satiety. Why not just eat grass like a cow and a tree like a dota? Because the human body lacks cellulase, it is unable to digest this part of the organic matter.
Fungi can produce cellulase, and ruminants such as cattle and sheep rely on microorganisms that grow together in the stomach, rumen, or cecum to help digest forage and leaves, which they then digest for nutrients.
As far as the microbes themselves are concerned, they do not have the incentive to evolve to produce cellulase in large quantities. In contrast, most cellulase-bearing microorganisms are fungi that contain a lot of cellulose in their cell wall structure. Fungi such as fungus, shiitake mushrooms, etc., do not turn parasitic wood into starch and store it in their own bodies.
Only microorganisms that are artificially screened, mutated, or even designed directly through genetic engineering will have this ability to defy natural selection.
And what Shuhui obtains is such a fungal strain that can hydrolyze cellulose with high efficiency and produce sugar that can be directly used by the human body! Relying on the fungus called Aspergillus purple, during the three years of severe food shortages, the people of Datang relied on timber, bamboo, reeds and even forage harvested from the wasteland to escape the fate of starvation.
And as a punishment for forcibly giving Li Shimin (green, RP: 0) at that time to Aspergillus vulgaris worth 50 million RP, Shu Hui's system was banned for three years!
Yes, not just summoning the altar, as another option to reduce the sentence, the entire system was banned for three years.
This choice is undoubtedly more cost-effective in Shu Hui's opinion. At that time, he had already prepared to ban the summoning altar for ten years, anyway, he was only thirteen years old by then, and he still had a lot of time, and the system suddenly reminded itself that he could choose to ban the entire system to reduce his sentence, which undoubtedly made him overjoyed.
The system has four basic functions, and there are three remaining after the summoning altar is banned: reward distribution, system backpack, and nuclear furnace. Among them, the nuclear furnace itself is locked, and the system backpack is actually dispensable without going far away, and the only thing that really needs to be cared about is the reward distribution function.
And Shu Hui had long planned not to make too many moves when he was still young, because there were not many techniques that he could transplant from later generations and obtain system rewards, and the total number of early and late was actually the same.
Then being able to reduce the very practical summoning altar ban sentence to three years is Shu Hui's unexpected joy.
Since the system was unsealed a month ago, Shu Hui has become more and more determined to do less things now - Li Shimin's bicycle is an upgraded royal version of the travel bike built by Shu Hui with craftsmen.
And Shu Hui immediately made such a name for himself after the system was unblocked, and he got the children's bicycle he is riding under his crotch now - with two training wheels!
"This broken car doesn't even have a sleeve, how can I remove it?" He had been pretending that his mana had been severely damaged for three years, and he had forgotten about his shield of dark protection.
In fact, if he had used the size of an adult as a reference to design the original model of wooden bicycle, this "oolong" might not have appeared, which has little to do with his own age and size.
But Shu Hui's thinking has now entered the strange circle of "something should not appear too early", and he is also confused by the authorities. Besides, it would not be a good thing to be rewarded in such a way that suited his current situation. As he gets older, he can't always ride a bike, let alone open a bike shop with a copy function.
When Li Shimin rode his "BMW" to the Taiji Hall to go to the court, Shu Hui also happened to ride this children's carriage to slip the baby new favorite he got last year-
"Fat, run fast!" A four-year-old panda about a meter long cat-bear (giant panda) followed Shu Hui on his right side with four short furry legs. He didn't look at the road, but looked around with his head up, as if he was patrolling his territory.
Pedestrians on the street got out of the way, and when they saw this fat little ass running, they couldn't help but twist even more snobbishly.
In fact, the people on the road gave way so simply not because they saw Shu Hui dressed in crimson and extremely noble, thinking that this was the little prince from where; It's not because of the minions of this strange young beast that was encountered when the Lushan County organized people to go to Lushan County to cut bamboo sauce last year, but ordinary people didn't know why they would send it to Huojing County.
But Ao Guang and Hongyu were riding two tall horses respectively at this moment in order to calmly catch up with this man and beast, and they were following Shu Hui as companions.
This is not a horse raised for both cultivation and riding due to the military system, but a war horse worth at least more than 10,000 yuan. Riding on it, the male is rich and handsome, and the female is Bai Fumei, if you think it's not, it can only be that you have bad eyes.
Of course, Shu Hui didn't think that these two stupid big fat horses were so miraculous, and they were much worse than the British thoroughbreds, Arabian horses and shire horses he had seen on TV.
He didn't realize that these two Kazakh horses, which were actually very miraculous, were fattened by him.
Three years is just an inadvertent coming-and-going for adults, Ao Guang's expression has only softened a lot, but his bearing has increased a lot.
The red fish has gone from being a girl who was still slightly young to the beginning, and has been slim and elegant.
The three of them and one beast circled around the county office, and most of the vendors along the street greeted Shu Hui warmly. They knew that the children of these nobles often went back and forth with officials from the Ming Mansion and other county offices, and even other officials besides Yuan Tiangang would salute him when they met him by chance.
In addition, Shu Hui is very talkative, often goes to their store to hang out, and occasionally sees some new things and asks the beautiful maid behind to write them down, and then someone will come to buy them.
After these vendors got acquainted with him, they greeted him warmly whenever they met. If you can get a response from this nobleman, you will feel light and energetic.
However, in the past month, Shu Hui has obtained a bicycle, and the speed of travel has increased sharply, and after a period of adaptation, these vendors also know what speed to greet and when to see.
Today, although Shu Hui told Fat Da to run faster, he actually rode quite slowly, and he was still looking around, obviously in a good mood. After bypassing the main entrance of the county office and going straight to the east and west streets, and walking up to the east side of the cultural street, this much deserted street erupted with even greater enthusiasm.
Because the people who were able to read and write at this time had some good backgrounds; He can do business with scholars, and he is not an ordinary trader. Shu Hui has been in Huojing County for three years, and on the first day, he has met the head of a famous family in this county, and his identity is not a secret among these people.
"Third Brother Zhang, I heard that the newcomer Liu Yuanjun recommended you to study in the four schools, and in the future, you will compete for a good man to go to the imperial examination......"
"Shu Hui, don't be in a hurry to go, see how about my new question?"
"Not bad, yes, give me a whole picture when you have time!"
……
"Hey, Fourth Sister Li, your lipstick is not the same color as last time, Lilifang has a new product?"
"Shu Hui, you stop my sister and see if my blush and lip fat match today!"
"Haha, you come after me, if you chase me, I'll tell you that the blush is too dark......"
……
In the past three years, Shu Hui has completely integrated into the lifestyle of Datang.
