Chapter 443: The Emperor's Road (14)
The spring night is not aware, and it is greedy for joy.
Wu Chu found that the beauty of Princess Taiping still could not resist the erosion of the years, he deeply felt the changes in her body, her skin was not as smooth as a girl, and her belly was also a little fat......
However, even so, Wu Chu was still a little greedy for this fleshy woman, and although the two were a little greedy, they still did what they had to do.
After the two discussed, the land sold was between 5,000 and 6,000 hectares, and the specific location was not very familiar to the two.
Of course, Wu Chu was also very impressed, but in the past thirty years, he has tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land, and most of them are in the two capitals, which makes Wu Chu, who was three non-dick silk in his previous life, sigh. As for selling land, to be honest, he really doesn't have any idea, as long as he can help himself gain prestige, a little bit of land is nothing, and when he becomes the emperor, isn't the world his own?
Sitting in the carriage, Wu Chu couldn't help but shake his head, if he became an emperor and thought that the world was his own, what was the difference between him and the emperors of previous dynasties? It was just a machine that created man, and finally died of immorality.
After crossing the Tianjin Bridge, I saw that I was going to bypass the Great Zhou Songde Tianshu, but I saw that outside the end gate, the dense crowd of people rushed to the Wuqi car, and the guards immediately stepped forward to surround the carriage, and then pressed the horizontal knife in their hands, ready to fight desperately at any time.
Wu Hei hurriedly reported: "Your Highness, there are tens of thousands of people stopping you!" ”
Wu Shui raised the curtain slightly, and he was also shocked to see that the people had already rushed towards him from around the Tianshu stone steps. Then he said: "Ask the reason first, and don't hurt the people until you have to." ”
"Yes. Your Highness! Wu Hei bowed, then turned to the people who were already approaching, and shouted: "The prince's car is driving, the people must not collide, please retreat quickly!" ”
Wu Hei's martial arts have improved a lot over the years, and the roar was like thunder, which shook Wu Qi's eardrums a little. The people also stopped their tracks.
Immediately, the people shouted: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is merciful, I will wait for the small people to donate some money and goods, and the family business must not be sold!" ”
Suddenly. The people shouted: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't sell your family business!" ”
Wu Chu was shocked, what the hell is going on? Then he commanded, "Let the leading people come to the king!" ”
A short time later, an elderly rich man arrived with several well-dressed middle-aged people. They will kneel and kowtow. Wu Chuan got out of the car and picked up the old man with both hands, and said, "The old man doesn't have to be like this, if this grandfather Wang is alive, he is just like you, you kneel, isn't that killing me?" ”
The old man sighed lightly and said, "Little old man has ten thousand dollars, and his ancestral home is in Luoyang City." There is no shortage of food and clothing at home......"
Old man Jin introduced himself, and Wu Zheng could also see it. Although the old man did not wear silk, the cloth was obviously of the highest quality, and the workmanship was meticulous, coupled with the good health, it was obvious that the family was well-paid, and he spoke extraordinarily, and must have been a scholarly family.
Old man Jin continued: "His Royal Highness is so sympathetic to the people, the people are looking at it, now His Royal Highness is selling his business for the imperial court, it really shouldn't be, His Royal Highness has a big business, but he can't afford to withstand such a toss...... When the people heard that His Highness had sold his business, they donated the remaining money, although it was not much, but it was also a piece of heart. ”
Immediately, Jin Lao'er waved his hand and said, "Pull it up!" ”
I saw that the ox carts came slowly, and stopped side by side in front of the end gate, Wu Chuan raised his eyes and looked at it, I am afraid that he will also need more than ten ox carts.
He looked at Jin Lao'er and said slowly: "This king has thanked his father and fellow villagers for their love here, and this king has thanked him!" Then he bowed his hand.
Suddenly, tens of thousands of people knelt down and returned the salute, and the mountain shouted, "Your Highness is blessed!" ”
At this moment, Wu Zhai's heart was stirring, he never thought that he would have such a day, to be able to make the people love and care.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that in his life, he should make the people rich and happy. He slowly climbed the stone steps of the Great Zhou Tianshu, and then said loudly: "How can this king be able to enjoy this popularity? All of you are good people of the Great Zhou, please disperse! ”
Wu Zheng's mind is sober, he will not act excessively before ascending to the throne, although the popularity is a good thing, but it is also a hidden danger. The higher the expectations of the people, the higher the disappointment will be if they do something wrong in the future.
The matter in front of the end door soon spread to Lichuntai, at this time the empress was dressing, her old body, at this time fully revealed, when the palace maid relayed, the empress's heart also had some bad taste, since she established the Great Zhou Dynasty, except for those who offered auspicious rui to bewitch some of the people to petition, there has not been a time when the people have made such a voluntary move. She didn't have a taste in her heart, but she couldn't show it on her face, the prince decided by himself, if he showed his dissatisfaction, wouldn't he let these palace people chew the root of their tongues?
"In this way, when it is time for lunch, let the imperial chef cook more dishes that the prince likes to eat, call the prince here, and I will eat with him."
As she spoke, the empress sat down on the embroidery pier in front of the dresser, and the three palace maids who combed the empress's hair and makeup began a long period of makeup, which was usually nearly an hour.
The palace man agreed, bowed and retreated. She wanted to inform Wei Tuan'er, who was in charge of the empress's daily life, that only Wei Tuan'er could make the Shang Food Bureau.
Inside the Imperial City.
Wu Chu stood in front of the eighteen ox carts, looking at the boxes of Kaiyuan Tongbao carried down by the Jinwu guards. He was full of emotion in his heart, eighteen ox carts, nearly 100,000 Kaiyuan Tongbao, these were all donated by the people, and the people gave him willingly.
Although this money still can't solve the problem of the imperial court, this money is still exciting, which shows that the people of Luoyang are still towards the Great Zhou, or rather, towards him. The people's will is available, so why worry about big things?
All the officials in the court temporarily put down the things in their hands, and were called here by Wu Zheng, who ordered the local officials and the officials of the Sifu Temple to count the coins, and asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites to write a letter to the people to thank the people for donating money.
All the prime ministers were beside Wu Chu, and Wu Chu said: "Prime ministers, although the people have donated money and materials, the king's land still has to be auctioned, and we still have to discuss the specific implementation steps today, but they must be finalized today." In the future, if there is a treasure, you can do it according to this example, so this time, it must be reasonable, legal and reasonable, do you understand?! ”
When the prime ministers saw the money donated, they had different thoughts in their hearts, and now when they heard the prince say this, they could only agree: "The ministers understand! ”
In this way, after seeing these ox carts, the important ministers surrounded the crown prince Wu Chu and walked towards the Wucheng Palace.
When it was almost lunch, Wu Chu got the news from the palace, and after being stunned for a while, he was relieved, something like that happened in the morning, as an emperor, how could he not ask, so he followed the palace maid to Lichuntai.
Lichuntai Pavilion Water Pavilion, Wuqi designed and built tap water facilities are also used here, so all kinds of facilities are complete, and the empress operates here all the year round, so here is not only beautiful spring, but also the most suitable for recreation.
At this moment, the empress was teasing a parrot, and in the cage next to her, there was a tanuki. The tanuki was snoozing in the cage, and Wu Shui was smart and clear-sighted, so he heard the snoring of the tanuki from a distance.
"Holy Lord, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" The palace people announced.
The empress made a "squeak" sound, teased the parrot, and said, "Then serve!" ”
Immediately, Wu Chu was summoned, and Wu Chu entered Lichun Terrace, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to say goodbye. The empress smiled and said: "My son will not come to the palace for a few days, today's lunch, there is just a river fresh from Shuzhong, I know that you like river fresh seafood, so I asked the imperial chef to make some, sit down and taste it." ”
At this time, the palace maid put the delicious food on the table, and Wu Chu bowed down again to thank him, and then sat behind the table.
The empress believes in Buddhism, so she only has vegetarian food, she smiled and said: "The emperor tasted it, the day before yesterday Taiping came to the palace, I asked people to make braised carp, she said it was very delicious." Can you taste it? ”
Only then did Wu Chuan know that Taiping had gone to the palace the night before. So he picked up a piece of braised carp, put it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, and then nodded and smiled: "It's still the imperial chef in the palace, just this braised carp, who else in the world can make it so delicious?" ”
The empress smiled: "In the future, after you inherit the throne, you will be able to enjoy it often." I only eat vegetarian food, so I am not blessed to enjoy it. ”
Wu Chu was suddenly shocked in his heart, so he quickly stood up, bowed down and said: "Mother is still healthy now, although she is only a vegetarian, but she doesn't know how much longer her life is than ordinary people, and children eat meat, which is also the reason why children practice martial arts." ”
The empress paused, and then said: "You sold the fertile land, and your loyalty is commendable, and it is comforting that I have a prince like you." ”
Immediately, the empress asked, "How much money do the people donate?" ”
Wu Chu knew that this lunch must not be so simple, and sure enough, he said: "A total of 95,317 guan 65 wen, Erchen has let the local officials and Sifu Temple officials dispose of it, register and make a book, and in the future, when Zuozang is abundant, and then return it to the people, Erchen has also promised that the people's life is not easy, and the money donated should be borrowed by the imperial court and returned to the people within ten years." ”
The empress's face finally showed a smile, Wu Chu borrowed it in the name of the imperial court, and did not take advantage of it to gain fame, which shows that he still puts her, the emperor, in the first place in his heart. So the empress smiled and said, "Okay, you kid, why are you standing, sit down and eat, you, eat more, I know that you eat a lot, so I'll make more for you." ”
Wu Chu scolded for a while, but he still thanked him, sat down on the food table, and ate a lot, without the elegance that a royal family should have.
At this time, the tanuki seemed to smell the aroma of food, and immediately straightened up and turned its head to look at the parrot in the cage. (To be continued......)
