The environment of this era has not been much damaged, and a variety of native plants can still be seen on the verdant hills, especially the blood-like rhododendrons, which are even more gorgeous. In the primeval forest, one or two small animals occasionally run out, making people feel the breath of nature.

The unique beauty of the landscape can't help but make all visitors intoxicated.

Duhe and Changle are also one of them.

The higher you climb, the more beautiful the scenery becomes, with red rhododendrons, green forests and magical ancient trees all exuding the profoundness and seclusion of the primeval forest. The number of tree species, the age of the tree, and the density of the cover are all unseen in modern times.

Du He glanced at Changle who was leaning on his body, wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with a hand towel, and chuckled: "Tired, let's take a rest!" Changle's body almost leaned against him, and there were faint beads of sweat on his sideburns.

He knew that Changle was inactive as a princess, and because she was suffering from a genetic qi disease, her physique had always been relatively weak, and climbing the mountain was the most physically demanding, and she looked faintly unable to support her.

Changle can actually support it for a while, but seeing that Du He is so worried and concerned, deep down in his heart is like smeared honey, and he doesn't want Ailang to lose interest because of himself, so he nodded slightly.

After resting for a while, the two continued to march towards the top of the mountain, and after a long period of unremitting efforts, the two finally reached the top of Rhododendron Mountain, and what came into view was the luxuriant grass and trees, which were greener and more tender than those elsewhere, some were inserted in the cracks of the stone slabs, and some were densely distributed on the uneven land, as if the earth was clothed in green.

Changle enjoyed the joy of climbing the peak, let go of Du He's arm, came to the cliff, looked into the distance, only to see the mountains and forests with lush flowers and grass, green trees, rhododendrons in full bloom, green pines and green, beautiful, this magnificence of nature, far better than the palace of those artificially repaired forest gardens. Rao is skilled and dignified, and she can't help but snort and praise: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Duhe also stepped forward, also shocked by the scenery in front of him.

In the face of this kind of scenery, Du He couldn't help but show off his memory and memorized a poem by the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi praising Du Juan.

Looking at Changle's look of admiration and admiration, Du He suddenly understood why so many people were angry and rushed to the crown to become red-faced, seeing this expression, not to mention reciting a poem, even if it was difficult to refuse even if it was a sword mountain and a sea of fire!

Du He took out the pastries prepared in the morning, Changle saw that he brought the snacks he sent with him, his eyes narrowed with a smile, the two ate separately, and stayed on the mountain for a while before reluctantly going down the mountain.

It was still early, Du He led Changle to Wannian County, took her to see the pastoral scenery, and by the way, took a look at the spring plowing situation in Wannian County.

This came to Wannian County, Du He frowned, some people were in a hurry, they didn't come early, they couldn't play, but when they accompanied the beauty, they had the idea of wc, and they were depressed, seeing that Ling Chenbing's home was nearby, they felt a little unbearable, so they had to lead Changle over, and came to the house and shouted.

Ling Chenbing was studying at home, and when he heard Du He's call, he hurriedly walked out and invited them in.

Du He gave them a brief introduction. Because Ling Chenbing was quite capable, Du He planned to promote him to be a housekeeper and deal with important affairs in the first house, and he trusted him very much and did not hide Changle's identity.

Ling Chenbing saw that the woman turned out to be Li Shimin's favorite princess Changle, and hurriedly saluted and said hello.

Du He hurriedly said: "Don't mention it, Chen Bing, do you have any rice paper here?" ”

Ling Chenbing nodded and said, "Recently, I received my salary and bought a few for backup." ”

He used the key to open the wooden box on the side of the house, carefully took out three pieces of rice paper from it, and handed it to Du He with some reluctance.

It's not that he's stingy, it's that rice paper was too expensive in the Tang Dynasty.

After years of progress, the paper industry in the Tang Dynasty has been extremely developed. In particular, the birth of rice paper has pushed papermaking technology to a peak. The rice paper of the Tang Dynasty has the characteristics of toughness and moistness, light but not slippery, white and dense, pure texture, non-destructive rubbing and folding, and strong ink surname, and is the top grade paper for writing and painting. Li Shimin, who loves calligraphy and painting, also personally ordered Jiangxi, Sichuan, and eastern Zhejiang to pay tribute to rice paper every year, so this rice paper is also called tribute paper.

On the fineness of the paper, rice paper is not inferior to the paper of later generations, the only disadvantage is that the workmanship is complicated, a good rice paper needs to go through soaking, ash masking, cooking, bleaching, pulping, water fishing, glue, flooding and other eighteen processes, after a year can be made.

Therefore, rice paper is extremely expensive, and ordinary people can't think of it at home.

Ling Chenbing was the same before, but after being valued by Du He, Yu Lu was promoted, so he gritted his teeth and bought three of them as a backup, thinking about the Tongbao that he had paid, he would feel a pain in his flesh.

The next scene broke his heart even more.

Du He touched the paper, slipped without leaving his hand, and muttered: "It's too slippery!" He grabbed the two ends of the rice paper, squeezed the paper together, and rubbed it vigorously. There was a "bang-la-la" sound, and the rice paper made him rub the hair rough, like toilet paper.

Ling Chenbing's eyes widened, he wanted to cry without tears, and the rice paper that he regarded as a treasure was ruined like this? couldn't help but ask: "How did Childe offend you with this rice paper!" ”

Changle was also puzzled, she was in the palace and could know the value of rice paper. Don't say it's her, even Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is reluctant to waste it, and usually writes on hard yellow paper, and only uses rice paper when necessary.

"Nope!" Du He replied and said, "It's just too slippery, I can't wipe it clean, so rub it rough." That's right...... Where is the hut, I want to go to the toilet. ”

At first, Ling Chenbing thought that Du He was going to wipe some precious things, but when he said this, he almost fainted, and shouted in a low voice: "Childe, do you have a toilet chip, use this high-quality rice paper to go to the toilet." ”

When it came to the toilet chip, Du He couldn't help but shudder, that thing almost caused him to have a phobia of going to the toilet.

It's a shame to say, that was a year ago. When he first came, one night, he couldn't hold it back, and hurriedly ran to the toilet to go to the toilet, perhaps accustomed to the spare paper in the toilet in later generations, and didn't care so much for a while. After refreshment, I found that there was no paper in the toilet, only toilet chips. Only then did I remember that in ancient times, due to low productivity, toilet paper was only popular in the upper class during the Song Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, even if Li Shimin went to the toilet, he used toilet chips.

It was late at night, and the location of the thatched house was remote, which was called the heavens and the earth, and Du He could only reluctantly try it.

I don't know if God is playing with him, the toilet chips in the thatched house are brand new, and no one has used them, so the sharp corners are a little sharp. Du He did not lay a good foundation for use since he was a child, not only did he get it on his hand carefully, but he also scratched his buttocks, which hurt for several days.

Since then, Duhe no longer uses the toilet and uses cheap bamboo paper, but the tragedy happened again, and he scratched his butt again. As the name suggests, bamboo paper is made of bamboo as raw materials, hard, and biscuits, broken when broken, brittle. Due to the poor technology, there are still fine bamboo chips between the gaps of the paper, which is more difficult to use than toilet chips.

As for the popular hard yellow paper, Du He didn't dare to use it at all, the surface of the hard yellow paper paper was shiny and moist, the toughness was good, and the transparent surname was strong, but the surface was obviously coated with wax, and he didn't want to joke with his ass, so the only choice was rice paper.

This year's toilet problems, he has used rice paper to solve them. It's just that the rice paper is too smooth, so I rub the rice paper with my hands before using it every time. It is also thanks to the Du family, who has a rich family background to afford such luxury.

Du He also often thinks that if he can invent some toilet paper, it will be less embarrassing, but he doesn't know anything about papermaking, and the only knowledge he knows is that it is popularized in ordinary life, or he just reads novels, but he really starts to do it without a little certainty, and he doesn't intend to be embarrassed.

Ling Chenbing was a little resigned, sighing and pointing out a clear path to Du He, needless to say, the regret in his heart is needless to say, if God can give him a chance, he will definitely say: "Hui Gongzi, I don't have rice paper here." ”

Du He got into the latrine and did the big thing in life.

Only Ling Chenbing and Changle were in the lobby.

Because Changle is a princess, Ling Chenbing looks a little restrained.

Changle saw it and said with a smile: "Young Master Ling doesn't have to care about Changle, just do it yourself." This palace can see that Qinglian values you very much, and she is very relieved of you! ”

Ling Chenbing hurriedly said: "The grace of the child's acquaintance, Chen Bing's body is unforgettable!" There was also some excitement on his face, although the weight of Du He's weapon was obvious, but from Changle himself, it had an extraordinary effect.

That's when it happened. Suddenly there were shouts outside the house, from far and near, the voice gradually came, as if it was calling Ling Chenbing's name.

Ling Chenbing was stunned, apologized to Changle, and walked out.

Changle looked out of the window, but saw Ling Chenbing talking anxiously with a crop man, and after a while, he hurriedly returned to the house, "Princess, there have been some accidents in the farmland, and the people in the village have lost their minds, in order to avoid greater trouble, I need to deal with it." ”

Changle looked anxious when he saw him, and said solemnly: "Focus on business, no matter what happens, you must avoid casualties." If you can ride a horse, you can ride the horse of the main palace outside the house, which is short and docile, and has good foot strength, and is suitable for anyone to ride. ”

When Ling Chenbing heard Changle say this, he was also in awe of her, answered, rode Changle's horse, and whipped away.

Du He came to the lobby dressed up, and when he saw that Changle was alone in the lobby, he couldn't help asking, "Where is Chen Bing?" ”

"It seems that the people are making trouble, which is quite serious, and they left in a hurry." Changle said, detailing the situation at the time.

"Let's go, let's go!"
