Chapter 339: Happy New Year

The word Pingjiang of the King of Pingjiang represents helping the emperor to pacify the country.

The old emperor ascended the throne and was a little unrighteous, and immediately shuffled the cards after winning the country, and wanted to get rid of those officials who did not obey him. In addition to a few henchmen, King Pingjiang contributed a lot. However, it is precisely because he has become the emperor's left and right arm that his strength has grown rapidly.

Up to now, it has made the emperor a little jealous.

There are many factions in the DPRK and China, and the majority of the forces that are really firmly entrenched do not oppose the old emperor's accession to the throne, in the eyes of these people, who is not the emperor is different? As long as it doesn't affect your own interests. And then there is the emperor who died that year, and the prince chosen by him is really unsuccessful.

That's a demon who kills people without blinking! Even if there is a knighthood, or a high-ranking person, he will kill if he says he will kill it.

The old emperor defeated him and finally sat on the throne, which was also very happy.

I have to say that solid diseases still need fierce medicine, there are indeed some complicated forces in the court, but there are really few people who dare to rebel, and the old emperor strives to maintain stability after ascending the throne and secretly cuts down the strength of these factions, some of them are mild. On the contrary, if the murderous crown prince inherits the throne, then the power of these factions will be frantically suppressed.

After listening to Cheng Ze's introduction, Jiang Long touched his chin and thought, first Chang Qian, who was a concubine, and then Qian Dai, and then there was another person from the royal family. This Zhao Yi is also the most liked son of King Pingjiang, what is the emperor going to do?

Let yourself offend these noble sons with extraordinary backgrounds one by one? If so, what are the benefits for the emperor?

What Jiang Long didn't know was that after the Pingjiang Royal Mansion received the order, he did not immediately let Zhao Yi take office, but made an excerpt from Pingjiang Mountain, which said that it was winter, the weather was cold, and the northern Xinjiang could freeze to death. He also said that Zhao Yi had been in poor health since he was a child, with typhoid fever, and he couldn't travel long distances, so he hoped that the emperor would let Zhao Yi leave for Lingtong County after the spring.

After seeing this excerpt, the old emperor was furious, and directly dropped the jade teacup in his hand, this Pingjiang King is really bold!

How dare you openly disobey the holy decree!

What is the Holy Decree? As long as it is promulgated, even if you are allowed to die, you have to kill yourself. There is no room for negotiation at all.

"Pingjiangshan is a little too much." The old eunuch stared at his tiptoes.

"Why is it over?" The old emperor's face was grim, and the murderous intent on his body was monstrous, "He doesn't put me, the emperor, in his eyes at all!" Since I ascended the throne, many places need him to help me, but the power has raised a white-eyed wolf for him!

Hum! When Jingfu is pacified, I will kill him! ”

The old eunuch sighed lightly, maybe Ping Jiangshan really had ambitions.

Now is not the time to settle accounts with King Pingjiang, and the old emperor can't change the holy decree, otherwise what will happen to the holy decree? So he could only issue an order to agree to Ping Jiangshan's request, and also reward some precious medicinal materials to show his favor.

Pingjiang Wangfu is naturally jubilant.

Of course, there are also people who are unhappy, such as the eldest son of Zhao Zhe, the king of Pingjiang, Zhao Biao.

Zhao Biao is twenty-five years old, with a thin body and a dark appearance, if it weren't for the faint similarity of his facial features to Zhao Zhe, Zhao Zhe would definitely wonder if the princess had stolen people and gave birth to a wild seed. It is precisely because of his unpleasant appearance that Zhao Zhe dislikes this eldest son very much.

I like it, it's Zhao Yi, the third son. Zhao Yi is very similar to Zhao Zhe, handsome, personable, smart and talented, reading poetry books and poems in seven steps, and being a royal noble.

The second son, Zhao, has an ordinary appearance, and Zhao Zhe doesn't like it or dislike it.

Because of eccentricity, Zhao Zhe has not yet set up a son.

Now Zhao Zhe dared to disobey the holy decree for the sake of Zhao Yi, which made Zhao Biao shocked and angry.

When Jiang Long learned the news, it was already a week later, and the imperial court issued an official document again to explain. I know if Zhao Yi will come to Lingtong County for a while and a half, and Qian Dai has already left in disgrace, although Jiang Long can be regarded as free again.

The next day, he rode the snow field to Hewu County without fear of the cold.

He inspected the progress of several coal mines in Hewu County, and strictly stated that he must be careful, and would rather spend more effort than leave trouble. With Jiang Long's mining skills in his previous life, accidents would occur from time to time, and dozens or hundreds of people would die at every turn, so you should be more careful here.

The whole winter is busy, and busy days always go by quickly.

In less than ten days, the Spring Festival will be celebrated. Jiang Long loaded the prepared New Year's gifts into the car and sent someone back to the capital.

Day by day, as the New Year approaches, the streets are full of laughter and laughter, and children are chasing each other, so that everyone is in a happy mood.

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Jiang Long and Delisi kept the year.

The next day, Jiang Long and Dai Lisi took Tudu, Qin Yu and others to the sealed county office, which was already surrounded by the people. Three days ago, Jiang Long asked the official to pass the word, saying that on the day of the New Year, he would celebrate with the people.

Standing in front of the tall county government gate, Jiang Long only said a few words briefly, and then saw the officials with cloth bags in their hands holding all kinds of candy in their hands, and kept throwing them towards the crowd. The people were suddenly in chaos, scrambling and huddled together.

After spilling the candy, Hou Jiang came forward and said a few words.

Then the two attendants standing behind him directly grabbed the copper coin and threw it at the people.

The people are even more crazy.

Next, the county officials such as the county officials also stepped forward to speak one by one, and Jiang Long helped to make preparations, and someone would sprinkle candy after each speech. The people who came to catch the excitement today were overjoyed, and almost everyone had a lot of candy and a small amount of copper plates in their hands.

There are many picks, and those who are fast can even grab more than 20 copper plates.

Seeing the people below smiling one by one, Jiang Long was very happy in his heart.

At this time, Delis whispered: "It turns out that when you see others happy, you will be very happy." "It's a feeling she's never felt before. In the past, she always grabbed what she liked or needed in the hands of others, and felt that that was happiness.

From the first to the fifteenth day of the new year, there was a lot of excitement in Lingtong County.

Jiang Long spent money to invite storytellers, acrobatics, and singers, and set up a high platform in front of the county yamen for the people to come and see for free. God is also more face-saving, and there was no snow during the Chinese New Year. It was not until the 16th day of the first lunar month that the weather turned cloudy and snowed heavily in the evening.

By the time the snow melted, the temperature was getting warmer and warmer.

In the middle of February, the grass sprouted, and the sky and earth gradually became green again. The ground is thawing, and you can start digging rivers again.

Last year, the river was dug on the same day, and the reputation had long been spread, so after posting the list and starting to recruit workers this year, not only the women who came last year picked up shovels to dig the river, but even the people in the nearby states and counties came with their families and mouths.

For a time, a large number of people gathered towards Lingtong County.

Because of the serious population loss, other states and counties began to set up cards to intercept them, but they still couldn't stop these people who wanted to earn money and eat their stomachs. Sometimes the checkpoint is rushed, sometimes the people cross the mountain peak and take a long detour, until the last official issues a decree, and then there are those who dare to go to Lingtong County to catch and ask for the crime, it is useless.

The population of Lingtong County has exploded again!

Even though the streets of Lingtong County are wide, they are still crowded, people are crowded, and people are rubbing shoulders one after another.

In the evening, inside the county office.

Xiao Fan frowned and said: "Today, there are 30,000 people pouring into the county, and if this continues, the population of the surrounding states and counties will probably be less than one-third of the original." ”

"You can make money here, you can eat well, and the people will naturally come here." Why not have returned to Lingtong County.

Cheng Ze smiled and stroked his beard and nodded.

"I'm afraid of too many people......"

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Long interjected: "In fact, when we first planned to reclaim farmland, we were worried about the lack of manpower, so we made trade-offs.

Don't worry about too many people.

As for the pressure exerted by the surrounding states and counties, Pang Chengan will bear it for us. ”

"As long as there is enough food, there will be no chaos." Cheng Zedao.

Jiang Long nodded, "Fortunately, we have bought a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes for a while, even if they are still not enough to grow, but the yield of these two crops is high." Don't sell it after the autumn harvest, save it all and use it as next year's seeds.

In the past, the land was just grasslands and wilderness, and it was difficult to harvest other food crops, so I kept sending people to make farm fertilizer, but the quantity was too small to be enough. ”

After the prisoners cleaned all the toilets in the city, the feces were pulled out of the city and all the manure was made into farm manure.

"Then you have to plant, just as a fertile land." Xiao Fan said.

As the temperature warmed up, Pingjiang Palace, Zhao Yi's road was also on the agenda.

King Pingjiang was very unhappy that the emperor sent his favorite son to the frontier. What is the place in northern Xinjiang? Every now and then there will be a war, and there will be a place where death is very from! If it was the eldest son Zhao Biao or the second son Zhao Xing, it would be fine, but it was to send Zhao Yi over.

King Pingjiang didn't dare to imagine that if Zhao Yi died in the northern Xinjiang, he would not be able to withstand this blow.

But in private, he asked many people to send messages to Lu Shang, but the emperor did not agree to change the candidate. What else did Zhao Yi say was smart, and he should have honed it in order to better serve Daqi. The power of a fart, Zhao Yi has royal blood flowing in his body.

No matter how great the ability is, there is no place to play.

And if you really have the opportunity to show your ability, then death is not far away.

Which emperor can tolerate someone in the royal family who is in the limelight and stronger than himself? Once discovered, it must be strangled in the cradle.

Compared with Qian Dai, Zhao Yi's fleet is even larger!

And it's even more luxurious!

People in the royal family can hang yellow belts on the carriage when traveling, but this makes Zhao Yi's convoy majestic, noble, and unattainable.

A team of 1,000 people set off from Pingjiang Wangfu and slowly sailed towards northern Xinjiang.

Along the way, Zhao Yi didn't look like he was going to work, but like a tour of the mountains and rivers, and the speed was slow. When encountering some interesting places and famous mountains and rivers, Zhao Yi will stop for a few days, sigh at the beauty of the rivers and mountains, and then compose a few good poems and send them home, so that his father can comment on them.

The old emperor learned of Zhao Yi's travel speed, and gritted his teeth angrily, but in the end he just snorted coldly, even if it is a turtle, you have a time to climb to Lingtong County.

In the past three months, the grassland has regained its vitality, and the earth is tender and green.
