777.Chapter 777: The Man Behind It

Li Shimin went to see the cement and verified the effect, and after the verification, he immediately issued an order to order people to process a large amount of cement, and he wanted to strengthen the walls of all the important towns in the Tang Dynasty with cement.

In addition, he also instructed the Ministry of Works, when Tang Zhou's house was built, according to Tang Zhou's pattern, he also built a few cement houses on the vacant land in his palace.

Li Shimin's request is actually a bit shameless, but no one dares to do anything to him, who makes him the emperor.

However, Li Shimin ordered people to process a large amount of cement, which is also a good thing for Tang Zhou, with the support of the imperial court, this matter is much easier, and he needs to use cement to build a house, and it will become very sufficient.

The only thing that made Tang Zhou dissatisfied was that he had worked hard to develop cement, but Li Shimin only said yes, and did not even have a substantial reward.

As an emperor, it is really speechless to pick the door like this.

However, Li Shimin didn't seem to realize this at all, as if Tang Zhou should do this, of course, the main reason was that he was used to it, and he was used to not rewarding Tang Zhou.

In his opinion, Tang Zhou is so rich, what reward does he need?

Offices? has already made him the head of the household department, isn't it enough?

Title? I'm really sorry for this, Li Shimin doesn't give the title easily, and if he doesn't make great contributions, especially military merits, Li Shimin will not knight Tang Zhou.

Li Shimin left after giving these orders, Tang Zhou smiled helplessly, and then asked people to step up the construction of their own house, Li Shimin didn't give a reward, but his house must be built.

And just when Tang Zhou stepped up the construction of his new house, Jiangnan Pavilion and Lian Hongxian had already learned of Ah Fei's death.

Knowing that Ah Fei was dead, Lian Hongxian frowned slightly, this matter was all manipulated by Wu Wang Li Ke in secret.

At that time, Tang Zhou was going to send an envoy to Tibet, and Li Ke, the king of Wu, also thought about sending someone to assassinate him secretly, but later he felt that there was little chance of success in doing so, what about more than 3,000 people under Tang Zhou's hands, how many people did he have to send to kill Tang Zhou?

In that case, the cost would be too great, so he planted an undercover agent among Tang Zhou's people, assassinating him if he could, and finding an opportunity to kill Tang Zhou by other methods if he couldn't.

Li Ke, the king of Wu, was lucky, his people found out that Tang Zhou stole the dragon and turned the phoenix, when he was in Heyuan City, that Ah Fei secretly sent a secret report to Tubo Songzan, but unfortunately Tubo Songzan failed to catch Tang Zhou's handle, so that Tang Zhou escaped, and the fake princess pretended to be too similar, and Tubo Songzan did not suspect this at all later.

After the defeat in Tibet, Li Ke, the king of Wu, prepared to make a move in the capital Chang'an, and asked Ah Fei to tell Li Shimin about it.

However, some time ago, the prince rebelled, Tang Zhou made great contributions, and the limelight was very strong, so he waited and waited, and it was not until the prince's matter was over that he finally brought up the matter.

But what they didn't expect was that Ah Fei died as soon as he entered the palace, how could this be possible, didn't Li Shimin have any suspicions?

Lian Hongxian stared at his eyebrows, and suddenly realized the problem, if this kind of thing is known, it will inevitably cause the breakdown of the relationship between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, even if Li Shimin believes that this is true, he will not admit it.

They made a mistake.

Lian Hongxian gritted his teeth, Li Shimin would not admit this at all, how could he do something to Tang Zhou?

Whoever dares to say this will die, and Li Shimin killed Ah Fei, so he already had the intention of warning the people behind the scenes.

After thinking about this, Lian Hongxian immediately wrote a letter to inform Wu Wang Li Ke of the situation here.

---------------------------------------

The summer in Chang'an is very hot, the Tang family manor is still being built, first the wall, and then the various facilities inside, the wall is naturally built with bricks and stones, after the prince's rebellion, Tang Zhou felt the necessity of doing so, he wanted to make his home like an iron bucket, so that no one could attack it.

Building a high wall is just one of the means, and when the house is finished, Tang Zhou will get all kinds of organs in the house.

And when the Tang family manor was busy building, the wheat in the suburbs was out of ears, and it might be a bumper harvest in more than a month.

Although the capital is not peaceful this year, the people's crops are growing gratifyingly, and it should be a bumper harvest year.

And at this time, Tang Zhou bought another hundred acres of land not far from the house, and he wanted to grow cotton.

The cottonseed was purchased by them from Tibet, and because they didn't know if they could grow it, Tang Zhou didn't tell Li Shimin that he was going to experiment for a year.

For how to plant cotton, Tang Zhou knows more or less, cotton is different from beans and wheat, cottonseeds are not planted in the ground one by one at the beginning, but need to be sampled, the model is cylindrical, there is an empty on it, used to sow cottonseeds, these samples are placed in rows, after the cotton seeds are planted, a layer of soil is sprinkled, splashed with water, and sometimes it may be necessary to use something to shield to ensure the most suitable temperature and moisture for seed germination.

These are all troublesome things, just planting this, Tang Zhou has hired almost more than fifty people, and he has to order people to make good tools in advance.

And when Tang Zhou was building a house and planting cotton at the same time, Cheng Chumo and the others would come to join in the fun when they were fine, this group of gentlemen had nothing to do on weekdays, their fathers were there, and they didn't need them to fight at all.

People have money and have nothing to do, so they like to find something to do, such as going to visit the Qinglou, such as looking for Tang Zhou.

They were very interested in Tang Zhou's house and thought that this cement was very good, but before the house was built, they were not very interested in Tang Zhou's house.

As for the cotton planted by Tang Zhou, they were really curious.

"Brother Tang, what kind of thing are you?"

"Cotton."

"Food?"

"This ...... I can eat it, too. ”

As soon as he heard that he could eat it, Cheng Chumo became excited.

"Really? When can I eat it? ”

"In a few months, I'll make it for everyone to taste."

After hearing that it would take a few months, Cheng Chumo immediately pursed his lips.

"Brother Tang, what is this cotton for?"

"Make clothes."

"Isn't it food?"

"It's eaten, his flowers can be eaten, mixed with flour and fried, it's delicious, and it treats cough, it's more effective than that rock sugar pear ball."

"Brother Tang, how do you make clothes with this cotton, it's so strange............"

Cheng Chumo They seemed to have endless questions, Tang Zhou was tired of asking, and finally heard Cheng Chumo speak, Tang Zhou wanted to vomit and feel nauseous, as a last resort, Tang Zhou had to lock himself in the house, and no longer care about the new house and cotton, he handed over these things to others to be responsible.

But he obviously underestimated his fame too much, Tang Zhou did everything in the eyes of others with new ideas, building a house and making cement, maybe planting cotton might come up with something?

A person with a particularly strong sense of curiosity like Li Shimin, how could he know that Tang Zhou was drumming up something new without asking?
