Chapter 159 The crown prince is crowned huā who falls

But the mother did not do it too much. This is not a fast horse to transport lychees, but cotton huā, if it is promoted, it will benefit thousands of households, and the significance of sorghum is even greater.

It's just that Li Wei has some emotion in his heart, his father doesn't count on it, and if he says something rebellious, if he doesn't see King Yama for a day, he won't think about anything for a day. But her mother is different, although her scheming makes her afraid, but she is not informal, but many people can't compare. What palace test, what martial champion, are all from the mother. The understanding of new things, among these bigwigs of the Manchu Dynasty, may not be able to match. If it weren't for the power that would make her míhuā eyes, and put her mind on state affairs, succeeding to the throne herself, and her mother assisting her, then with her eyes closed, a huā cluster, it is possible that the Tang Dynasty, which has never been seen for a long time, will come out.

Alas......

said: "It's it, but it's not planted well." ”

"The palace also sent someone to inquire, no one has calculated the yield, but it is very small, and it is planted on some riverside beaches at will, and the yield you said is ......"

"Mother, why don't you believe your son?" After grabbing it, he finally grabbed Wu Zetian's hand, and then said: "Cotton huā is not a product of the Middle Earth, the one from Lingnan comes from Tianzhu, and the one from the Western Regions comes from Dashi, but whether it is Tianzhu or Dashi, it comes from a farther place. ”

This flicker doesn't have much to do with it, the source of cotton huā has always been very controversial, Lingnan is indeed from Tianzhu, and Gaochang is from Dashi. It is also possible that the big food still comes from Tianzhu. There is also a saying that it was originally in East Africa and spread to Tianzhu. Now that Kong Yingda is alive, there is no way to verify it.

continued: "In terms of output, or on the quality of silk cloth, whether it is Lingnan or the Western Regions, can there be a big food? ”

Wu Zetian shook his head.

"This kind of thing is not a big food and Tianzhu, do they have a source to grow well? It is passed down to the past, and the obtained is some skin máo. When Erchen was in Xijing, he saw a strange-looking person, and he went to talk about it, so he deliberately mentioned cotton huā. I laugh shamefully at the cultivation method of big food. Alas, at that time, Erchen was also dizzy, and he was actually negligent, as a curiosity, and talked about it for a long time, but he only heard a lot of strange knowledge, but he did not introduce him to the East Palace. ”

Wu Zetian probably still believed it, and occasionally one or two odd-looking Eastern Romans arrived in the Tang Dynasty. And even further away, like Kunlunnu. Most of the Kunlun slaves were swarthy-skinned people from the south of Tianzhu, but many were real blacks from East Africa. The first is far away, and the second is the barbarian land, and when they see only strange glances, and even keep them in captivity as slaves, they don't ask them where they have any special products, or whatever.

Li Wei continued: "This kind of cotton yield is very high, this person said, one acre of land can reach more than 100 catties of pure cotton, maybe the method is backward, maybe the seed is backward. However, from the good growth of sorghum, Erchen can see that the transfer of cotton huā in the nutrient bowl will even be better than the transfer of sorghum, and can make up for some defects. At least 100 catties of cotton can be collected. The queen mother, you see, is not just spinning. ”

As he spoke, he plucked the cottonseed and put it in Wu Zetian's hand, and said, "Stuff it into the big coat, will it be very warm." If you plant too much, the price will be cheaper, even cheaper than Makudi. Soldiers can wear this kind of clothes, so would Emperor Taizong freeze to death many soldiers when he was conquering Liaodong in September and October alone, when he encountered an early snowstorm? Or stuff it into the quilt, so last year's heavy snowfall, is there less crying from thousands of households in Guanzhong? ”

Wu Zetian was still calm, Li Shoucheng couldn't help it, and bowed down and said: "Queen, if this is the case, great merit, the queen's name will be remembered in the history books in the future." ”

Li Wei was so angry that he was silent, daring to love this eunuch really thought that Wu Zetian came up with it. Yes, we don't want this name.

"Go, don't be ashamed." Wu Zetian reprimanded dissatisfiedly. Then he said: "There are also reeling cars, and the palace has also sent someone to ask, and there are some, but they are not very easy to use." Therefore, the price of silk cloth is that it is difficult to weave, the cost is high, and it has to be expensive. I don't know if the big food will be better. ”

Li Wei is not sure, but this is what he has inquired about, the trade between Da Shi and the Tang Dynasty, in which cloth accounts for a very heavy weight, Da Shi loves the silk of the Tang Dynasty, but because the silk cloth is expensive in the Tang Dynasty, he brought the domestic silk cloth. Because of the good quality, it was renamed white stacked cloth. With such reasoning, there should be. Therefore, he said, "Queen Mother, let someone ask about it." ”

"It's not easy. Most of the merchants of Liangjing were merchants with the surname of Zhaowu Jiu or Bōsi, but there were very few people who ate big food. The big food merchants are mainly in Guangzhou in the south. It will take some time to come and go, and since it is of such great significance, this palace will persuade your father and emperor to send an envoy to the Great Food and bring it back by the way. I will be able to return to Kyoto when this cotton huā is ripe next year. ”

"The queen mother is wise," Li Wei praised. Sure enough, it was very good, and he actually sent an envoy, and this dispatch was not one person or two people. But it is very cost-effective to get an advanced reeling car and be extravagant.

Wu Zetian said again: "This palace called you over, not only to ask why you asked to see, but also to ask you about some things. ”

"Queen Mother, excuse me."

"I'll show you a letter first." took out a letter from the bookcase and handed it to Li Wei, it was written by Yang Min, it was not good, it seemed that she couldn't wipe her face, and she didn't ask her uncle for help. However, the affection is very real, and he did not say anything to ask for jī anger. only admitted his mistakes to his parents, saying that what he did disappointed his parents and embarrassed the prince, but the prince was indecisive for a long time, which was not only bad for the prince, but also bad for the country. Ask your parents to send an edict and take a leave of absence. He also said that it was not right for him to stay in the eastern capital and have been extravagant, so he immediately returned to Xijing.

"Hong'er, what do you think?"

"Erchen is still the same sentence, the Yang family's Xiǎo lady is not a big mistake, but her mother has done something bad."

"Hong'er, this is the crown princess, even if she did nothing wrong, her mother is not good, and she can't do it with this one." But the tone is much softer than before.

"Erchen told her that she didn't have the idea of begging the crown princess now, so Erchen promised to persuade her father and queen mother to let her be a side concubine."

Wu Zetian still shook his head and said: "It's not easy to be a side concubine, the matter of the Python clan (Queen Wang) and the Xiao clan (Concubine Xiao Shu) back then was not far away. ”

In fact, Queen Wang's appearance is not weak, it is precisely because she saw that the Xiǎo girl of the Wang family was beautiful and intelligent, and she married Princess Tong'an of the Wang family, and recommended it to Li Shimin, so she was able to enter the palace and become the queen. In the end, there was no favor for Concubine Xiao Shu, although Concubine Xiao Shufei looked better, but also because Queen Wang had no children. pulled Wu Zetian in again. Originally, Li Zhi handled it properly and could sit on the three beautiful NVs. But as a result, the taste has changed. Wu Zetian This means that Li Wei has a good affection for Yang Min and looks good, today is a side concubine, and tomorrow is the second Xiao Shufei. The harem will be restless.

Li Wei replied: "That's the python family's fault, at the beginning, he became the queen of the mother, and he was already safe." ”

That's not necessarily, but if Wu Zetian had become the queen at the beginning, what did Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu think, they would have been killed a long time ago, and there would be no friction. But Wu Zetian is not xiǎojīxiǎo intestine, introducing his sister and nephew into the palace, at that time Empress Wu Zetian's position was already stable, and there was no need for them to consolidate it for herself, but her husband liked it, so he connived. But the result was that the lady of Wei was a big ghost, which violated Wu Zetian's bottom line. Since then, it has begun to be exclusively petted. However, it is possible that Li Zhi's condition has worsened and he will not be able to have sex.

Exactly what the reason is, it is unknown. Li Wei also didn't want to ask: "Father, can you still do the exercise on chuáng?" ”

Wu Zetian was ashamed, and he didn't agree with his son's statement, so he was silent for a while and said: "The Wei family will go to the Eastern Capital in a few days. ”

Li Wei was stunned, and then immediately said: "Queen Mother, this is Xu Jingzong's poisonous plan, the truth of the case is revealed, why did you let her enter the East Palace?" ”

"What Xu Jingzong did this time was a big rebellion. But I've done a lot of useful things in the past, and some of them you don't know. At least in the Wei family's NV, it is not a mistake. Without Xu Jingzong, the East Palace would not be caged because of the Wei family. In your east palace, it is too thin. One person is needed to support it. didn't give Li Wei a chance to refute, and continued: "It's the crown princess, who gives the palace and your father a headache." Have you ever heard the talk of the DPRK and China? ”

"I don't know."

"The Pei family NV is actually good, but she lacks the courage to persuade and the ability to command the East Palace. Hong'er, now it's just the East Palace, but in the future it will be a huge harem, the Pei family NV ......" Wu Zetian shook his head.

"In this way, not only the Pei family, but also the Yang family xiǎo lady, the Xu family xiǎo lady, are all not good."

"Yes, so Li Qizhuang, a member of the warehouse department, recommended the grandson of the former Boling Cui family, Cui Renshi, and the chief NV Cui Yingying, the former Lang Cui Renshi of the Boling Cui family. He also said that she is only stronger than the Yang family, not weak, strict in etiquette, and knowledgeable in etiquette. ”

"Cui Yingying?" Li Wei asked in surprise. This knows, "West Wing" came from the Tang Dynasty xiǎo, and the Cui Yingying mentioned is the lady of the Cui family, so I don't know if it is the Boling Cui family or the Qinghe Cui family. Don't think it's a Cui, these are two concepts, two Cui's are two surnames, and in the future, if the mén valve is gone, it's called one surname. And Qinghe Cui has a higher status than Boling Cui, although Boling Cui faintly has the latter dominance, but Qinghe Cui's family still looks down on Boling Cui's family very much. In addition, Zhaozhou Li and Longxi Li, Yili, Longxi Li, also look down on Zhaozhou Li. And now it's very weird, five families and seven surnames, and they are not very keen on fame, and they are mostly interested in entertaining themselves, and they also look down on the Tang royal family. said how many prime ministers these big families had, and Li Wei didn't see it.

This is natural, the situation of the prime ministers of the Manchu Dynasty with five surnames and seven families will come to the back, after the prosperity of the imperial examination, these big families are rich in resources, so every year Jinshi, at least one-third of the people, from these families, naturally there is a situation where the Manchu Dynasty is an official and the prime minister is crowded. But that doesn't mean it's not right now, there are still many people who are officials, and their influence is also huge. The reason why Shangguan Wan'er's mother was not killed and was not exiled to Lingnan was because her father was from the Zheng family in Xingyang. From this point, you can get a glimpse of the leopard.

"Well, it's Cui Yingying, do you know it?"

Li Wei shook his head, he knew the Cui Yingying of Xiǎ, it must be two people, could it be that this Cui Yingying is really beautiful, so there was the later book Xiǎo said, the protagonist of the NV is written based on this Xiǎo lady?

Wu Zetian was thinking again.

The son's heart is not bad, some are soft, some miss the old love, and his mother's family is easy to get lost. has a high prestige among the people, and it seems that Di Renjie and others helped him, and even gave some people some bad ideas.

Since the sorghum incident came out, this son has become more and more a sweetheart. The Yang family now seems to have a tendency to be unwilling, and other ministers also have the xiǎo action of saying kiss. However, compared with the NV of the Pei family, they are all a step behind. Only this Cui family NV has once again entered the eyes of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. After all, it is Bo Lingcui, and his family background is still faint above Hedong Pei. But among the people, the Pei family has already been recognized. Regretting it again is bound to cause a lot of controversy. And the time is pressing, and it is too late to inquire in Dingzhou. I only heard Li Qizhuang talking, but Li Qizhuang is a member of the Li family in Zhaozhou, these seven families are married to each other, and the relationship is complicated, and everyone is cousins. Naturally, one nostril was out of breath. So I'm not sure.

There is only one, and the appearance cannot be faked, and it is certainly not weak.

Of course, Pei Judao and others hated each other with Li Qizhuang, and they were willing to beat Li Qizhuang to a beating.

looked at his son, and said with some sneer: "Hong'er, do you know that for you, the crown princess, how many ministers in the court have turned their eyes into enemies?" ”

Anyway, it's his own son, and he's still very proud, and the most ridiculous thing is that Yang Sijian's wife actually has no eyes. So after saying that, he actually laughed.
