Chapter 1052: Old Cheng's Wheat
Chapter 1052 The wheat of the old Cheng family
Wang Shoulie didn't expect Qin Yong and these people to leave, but it was not a matter to put a coffin in the courtyard after all, he asked people to ask Wang Bo, and the message from Wang Bo was to let Wang Yuanze enter the ancestral hometown, and move the bones of Wang Yuanze's parents to the ancestral tomb of the Wang family. Wang Bo thought very clearly, although he was angry that Wang Yuanze didn't do anything, but he couldn't keep a dead person outside the family, if he, the head of the family, couldn't even tolerate a dead person, how could he win the hearts of the clan?
Wang Bo was so worried that his hair was about to fall down, and Li Shimin was not having a good time, since the earthquake in Taihang Mountain, he began to be in a trance, there are many people in the Taihang Mountain area, plus there are many local temples, this time the loss is great. What's even more hateful is that now I don't know where the rumors came from, saying that he Li Shimin's unkind governance has angered God and forced him Li Shimin to do something about himself. Li Shimin hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched, this was obviously a rumor made by others, but some foolish people believed in this thing. But it's no wonder that the common people are so big that the Tang Dynasty is so big, but there was an earthquake in Taihang Mountain, which caused many temples to collapse, doesn't this indicate that the Buddha is angry?
"Foolish people, foolish people, come, Zhao Chong, go find Fang Jun!" Li Shimin was almost accustomed to shouting outward, and at this time, Gao He on the side kindly reminded, "Your Majesty, Master Ma has gone to Jiangnan, and this matter can't be relied on him!" ”
was prompted by Gao E, Li Shimin realized that he was confused, hey, if you want to say that the old ministers in the court for disaster relief and rescue are completely enough, but this crime is not enough to rely on them. If you ask those courtiers what to do now, you must stretch your neck one by one and say that God is a good birth, the emperor is the parent of the people, and now the people have suffered natural disasters, showing the anger of the heavens, and the emperor should write an edict of sin.
Li Shimin didn't want to write an edict against himself, he would rather be scolded than do this kind of thing, there was an earthquake in Taihang Mountain, and he Li Shimin had a fart relationship, if he could control where the earthquake occurred, he would have led the earthquake to Jinshan a long time ago, no, it is better to be Sanmi Mountain, collapse Sanmi Mountain at once, and bury all the Turkic royal families under the mountain.
Zhao Chong was furious when he heard Li Shimin, and hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, "Your Majesty, the second son is not in the capital, why don't you send someone to call him back?" ”
"What are you shouting, get out of here, I'm really angry!" Waving his hand, Li Shimin pushed Zhao Chong out with a black face. As soon as he came outside, Zhao Chong had the urge to cry, damn, what is this called, as soon as the second son of Fang left, he Zhao Chong became a punching bag, what have you done in the past two days, anyway, you have to be scolded as soon as you go in.
The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March. Although it has not yet entered March, Yangzhou already has the breath of chūn days, and all the way, in addition to feeling warm, there is only one slow word left. Li Mingda is interested in everything, and almost everything he sees has to get off the horse and grope for it, which also causes the whole team to walk like a snail. Fortunately, it was not too urgent, if the treasure could grow legs, Fang Yiai would have carried Li Mingda to Yangzhou a long time ago.
Because the movement in Yangzhou this time was quite big, all the officials in Yangzhou City came to join in the fun, so that Fang Ergongzi had to take a break to socialize, but fortunately, Qin Wenyuan was on top, and Fang Yiai was exposed, so he escaped under the pretext.
Wu Shun has always lived in the Twilight chūn building, but as soon as Fang Yiai came, the twilight chūn building seemed a little cramped. But fortunately, in the past, Begonia once bought a house, and as long as it was cleaned up a little, it could be lived.
"Husband, did that Hongwenfeng ever exist, why did the concubine inquire for so long, and no one knew?" Wu Shun is also a little incomprehensible, she almost looked through the entire Yangzhou gazetteer, and never saw the three words Hongwenfeng, as for the snake river, there have been records, but the snake river has disappeared for more than two hundred years, if you want to find out the location of the snake river, you have to check it carefully.
Fang Yiai reached out and touched Wu Shun's chin, opened his mouth and smiled, "Bi Niang, it's normal if you can't find it, if you want to find this Hongwen Peak, it's useless to just start from the geographies, you have to find the snake river first." ”
"Husband, the information about the snake river, the concubine body has been prepared, can you come and see if it is useful?" Wu Shun asked his subordinates to bring over a rosewood box, and when the box was opened, he saw that it was filled with more than a dozen books. Seeing so many books, Fang Er Gongzi was a little dumbfounded, "Bi Niang, you don't want to tell your husband, these are all information about the Snake River, right?" ”
"Yes, the concubine has been busy for a long time in order to find these materials!" Wu Shun looked at Fang Er Gongzi with a smile, she knew that her husband would have a headache, because he had never been the kind of person who could read books steadily.
Fang Yiai really couldn't stand it, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he called Haitang and the others in. Guarding the candlelight, several women each held a book and fought, even Li Mingda didn't dodge, the only one who was idle was Luo Woman.
After a busy night's work, it was still very rewarding, at least let Fang Yiai know the ins and outs of the snake river. This snake river was built in the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, when this river was built to divert water to Jiangdu County, and later because of a landslide, blocking the water source, the river also dried up. There are not many things on the information, but it is enough to give Fang Yiai a little inspiration, if the snake river is dry because of the landslide, then as long as you find the place of the landslide, you can determine where the snake river is.
As the greatest tomb robber in the Tang Dynasty, Ding Laoba took over the task of finding the Snake River without surprise. At the same time, Fang Yiai also got the news from the capital that there was a major earthquake in Taihang Mountain, which was too unexpected, and there seems to be no record of this earthquake in history. In ancient times, the earthquake itself was not terrible, but the series of adverse consequences brought about by the earthquake were terrible. Every major earthquake is followed by displacement and disease. In addition, there are many mountain roads in the Taihang Mountain area, and under the landslide, the official road is blocked, which makes the rescue of the imperial court even more difficult.
Hey, what's going on, seeing that the war with the Turks is about to happen, and there is a big earthquake, is it really Li Shimin's unkind governance that angered God? Just think about it, Fang Yiai doesn't believe in this thing, but it is rumored that Li Shimin wrote some kind of guilty edict, which is interesting, as far as Li Shimin is so cheeky, what kind of guilty edict will he have?
"Husband, it seems that the court's rìzi is not having a good time, and now the treasury is quite abundant, but this disaster relief is not enough to have money, no matter how much money there is, it can't be used as food!" Zheng Niangzi has long thought of the key to disaster relief, the imperial court is not without grain, and the tax grain collected last year has been saved. The problem is that this batch of grain is for military rations, and the war with the Turks is unavoidable, if there is no food, what will the soldiers eat and drink? The military rations must not be moved, so where will the relief food for the imperial court come from?
Fang Yiai scratched his head, hugged Zheng Niangzi and said with a smile, "That's for sure, although there is still a surplus last year, but those grains can't be moved, this time Your Majesty can be regarded as having encountered a problem, and you have to take the big families in the capital again." ”
It's not that Fang Yiai's thoughts are dirty, but he really knows Li Shimin's personality very well, since he can't ask the people for food, then Li Shimin will definitely find a way to scrape the meat from the big households.
Wu Erniangzi disagreed with this opinion a little, she peeled the melon seeds in her hand, pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother-in-law, you miscalculated this time, if it was before, Your Majesty wanted to scrape some meat off the big family, it was still possible, but now, there is no fun." You collapsed the Sima family at once, and those people are ready to watch the excitement at this time, how can they help Your Majesty tide over this difficulty? ”
"Huh?" Fang Er Gongzi couldn't laugh a little, but he forgot about this stubble, and he didn't dare to love this method of scraping a big family.
Fang Yiai really thought right, since the lack of food came out, he asked Li Chengqian to think of a way to go to the major households to ask for food, but a few days later, Li Chengqian only got 2,000 stone of grain after grinding and soaking. Just 2,000 stone of grain is not enough for the people of Taihang Mountain.
Coming out of Li Ji's mansion, Li Chengqian came to Cheng Guogong's mansion. As soon as he entered the door, Li Chengqian saw that there was no human hair in the courtyard, and he searched for a long time before he found Cheng Yanjin in the backyard. At this time, Old Man Cheng had a rag tied to his head, and he was still clutching the mud on the ground in his hands. As soon as Li Chengqian wanted to open his mouth to say what he meant, Cheng Yanjin stood up, "Oh, His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you let people say anything when you come, you wait a minute, Lao Cheng still has to plant some wheat." Hey, there is a shortage of food at home, if you don't plant some wheat, you will have to drink cold water after autumn! ”
Hearing Cheng bite Jin's words, Li Chengqian almost fainted, this bastard Cheng Lao is still shameless, now it's almost March, you still grow wheat, whose wheat was sown in March, can it still grow?
Although Li Chengqian is pampered, he also knows when the wheat should be planted, and he is very angry, but Li Chengqian still endures it, who to lose his temper with, and don't lose his temper with Cheng Biting Jin, this old man doesn't know what the cheeky thing is. If you want to say that the wheat was planted a few years ago, the people Cheng Biting Jin definitely dare to say that the wheat of his old Cheng family is different, and it is planted by Chūn.
"Cheng Gong, some rìzi a few years ago, the Taihang Mountain earthquake, the national stock is not much, and I hope that Cheng Gong can look at the face of the affected people and be able to help the little nephew!" Li Chengqian's voice was full of emotion, and the sad expression moved Cheng Lao Demon Jīng blinked. It's a pity that Cheng Yanjin blinked for a long time, except for squeezing out a little eye, not a single tear came out. No, the old man was thick-skinned, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the from his eyes as tears, "Hey, His Royal Highness the Prince, let's do it, I Lao Cheng is also a good person, just rely on your words, I have drunk water for the past two months, and a hundred catties of grain in our house will be sent to you!" ”
A hundred pounds of grain? Li Chengqian's hands began to tremble, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't bite the gold in the process, he would play real PK with him now, which is called Huazi.
Li Chengqian is unwilling, the old Cheng family itself is a big family in Shandong, and there are many fiefs, can his family have no food? Besides, the old Cheng family is short of food, and the old Cui family can still be short of food? After an hour of fighting with Cheng Jin, Li Chengqian finally got 200 catties of rice grain plus 100 eggs, according to Cheng's grandfather, their old Cheng's hens were so energetic that they laid next year's eggs.
Li Cheng pinched the fire in his stomach and returned to the Manna Palace, where he squatted on the chair. As soon as he saw Li Chengqian's expression, Li Shimin knew what was going on, "Ming'er, haven't you received food again?" ”
"Father, the child received it, but it was only two hundred catties in total, and the other hundred eggs were still soft and hard grinding by the child" Li Chengqian was about to cry, he felt that he was the most prince in the world, "Hey, father, do you know, the first place the child went to the Wang family, the old tears that Wang Bo told the child, saying that half of the people in his hometown have suffered, and now he is worried about food." That Cheng Lao is even more hateful, he actually went to the backyard to plant wheat! ”
"What? What's that? This shameless old thing, his family's wheat was planted in March, it's really "Li Shimin held back for a long time before he said, "I'm really angry, and what about the Xie family and the Wei family?" ”
"Father, don't mention the Wei family, as soon as the child arrived at the Wei family's compound, he saw more than a dozen Lang Zhong busy working, and when he inquired, he knew that Wei Hanqian was sick, and said that it was an infectious disease, and the child was sent out without even seeing Wei Hanling's face!"
"It's really time for Wei Han to get sick, this old miscellaneous hair, he really doesn't take me seriously!" As soon as Li Shimin said this, Li Chengqian swallowed his saliva, and it was not easy for the three words of Lao Zamao to pop out of his father's mouth. (To be continued.) )
