Section 409 Fate 3 [Second Update]
A good harvest is always a great joy.
The people of Luoyang have already begun to put up their lights, and preparations for the celebration have been completed. At the south gate of Luoyang City, the dense crowd of human heads cannot be seen at a glance. The soldiers of Luoyang Mansion who are tied with uniform turbans, and the people who are messy are people.
Li Yuanxing is not like a prince, but more like an idle man in Chang'an City.
Biting a pipe, standing under the awning and drinking herbal tea, while listening to the officials from Chang'an, as well as the local officials in Luoyang, give lectures to these people, this is a very necessary process, the standard of reward, the rules, by the way, cheer up these people, work hard and so on.
Then it's time for the heavenly ritual.
"Sacrifice to the sky, it is better to sacrifice His Royal Highness the King of Qin!" Qu Tutong said suddenly on the side.
These words startled Li Yuanxing: "Old general, don't dare to say that." And my father, the emperor, and the royal brother in front! ”
"These words were not spoken by such and such a person, but by the Holy One." Qu Tutong smiled.
Li Yuanxing couldn't guess what kind of situation Li Er would say such a thing, but it still made him nervous.
Noticing Li Yuanxing's expression, Qu Tutong just smiled slightly.
"His Royal Highness King Qin, I heard that the granary can't be loaded." Qu Tutong asked Li Yuanxing in a whisper on the side.
Li Yuanxing smiled and nodded: "Some people, he should die, even the granary is not enough, he is an official for nothing!" After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, there was a scribe who wrote down Li Yuanxing's words, and what His Royal Highness King Qin said on any official occasion, even if it was a joke, would be recorded, and then recorded in the living record of King Qin.
Kill Shaoyin of Luoyang Mansion. What Qu Tutong heard was already a legend like a god.
Qu Tu communicated, he already had nothing to disbelieve.
This immortal food, this natural disaster immortal, he can be saved, Qu Tutong still has nothing to believe.
"Your Highness, a certain person has already issued a death order, and those who steal immortal food and prepare to seed will be beheaded at the lightest, and beheaded at the worst!"
"Actually......" Li Yuanxing wanted to say, this kind of child really doesn't matter. Zuihou Datang can be planted. Think about it. He changed his words and said: "The old general has worked hard, in fact, it would be good for them to deal with these things." ”
Qu Tutong didn't answer this, and pointed over there, Li Yuanxing looked over.
The soldiers have already begun to move. Rickshaw carts. There was a long queue of pull carts. Then the people followed suit.
In fact, in other places in Luoyang. The summer harvest has begun, but a ceremony is needed here, so such a big jiashi is put on the table.
Lu Maofeng arranged for someone to bring two soft sedans.
"Old General, please!"
"Your Highness, please!"
This kind of politeness of false courtesy. In Confucianism, this is etiquette, although Li Yuanxing has always advocated etiquette in his heart. But he didn't dare to stop this etiquette on the surface.
Continuously, under the summer breeze, the one-person tall corn is like a wave rolling, and every green wave is intoxicating. Li Yuanxing and Qu Tutong were on a high ground, watching all this from afar.
A green wave disappeared, tens of thousands of people worked together, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of acres were bulldozed.
One acre is thousands of pounds of corn stalks, hundreds of pounds of corn.
Just after Li Yuanxing and Qu Tutong stood on the high ground, in just a few minutes, a large pile of corn stalks several zhang high was piled up, there was no mechanical crusher of Qin Wangzhuang, only guillotine, even if it was made of steel, it needed to be cut out one by one.
The corn, on the other hand, was tied up one by one by the women with the husks removed, all of which had been trained in advance.
Giant trees were propped up and turned into rows of shelves, and then they were covered with bunches of corn, the first of which was a hundred, neat and very easy to calculate.
Each string was weighed and counted by a special scribe.
They were extremely fast, but they were able to catch up with the speed of the large number of government soldiers who were harvesting.
The pile of corn stalks was piled higher and higher, and the corn pile was almost ten feet old, and someone was carrying a big corn on his back, and he poured it on the corn pile one after another.
"Your Highness, that corn stalk is what Your Highness said about green storage material. These things are fed to the sheep, and they are also meat. It's piled higher and higher, and I'm afraid it will surpass us in the afternoon. Qu Tutong's tone trembled a little.
Li Yuanxing didn't care about Qu Tutong's tone, but said: "Only when the food can't be eaten can it be regarded as the beginning of a good life!" ”
Suddenly, Qu Tutong cried.
Li Yuanxing wanted to go over to persuade him, but Qu Tutong waved his hand: "Your Highness, take a break, take a break!" ”
Qu Tutong leaned on the soft sedan chair, with a smile on his face, and let out a long breath.
Li Yuanxing said in his heart, after all, Qu Tutong's body is not good, and he should not be let out this time. Let's sleep for a while, and if you can't do it after lunch, you'll be sent back to Luoyang City.
glanced at Qu Tutong again, it seemed that he was asleep, and Li Yuanxing ordered someone to cover it with a blanket.
"General Qu Tu!" Li Yuanxing walked a little farther, and after Qu Tushou followed, Li Yuanxing said: "Luoyang, you Qu Tujia don't have any more contact, this will be a place of right and wrong." It doesn't matter if you sell your property or give it to Li Zhengbao, in Liaodong, this king will give you the same. Or even more. ”
"Yes!" Qu Tushou responded.
Li Yuanxing pointed to the corn that was being harvested and said, "This king will prepare 100,000 catties of seeds for you and plant them in Liaodong." Remember, don't deforest, don't burn land easily. To be jihua, you need to know that if you burn a forest, the value of that forest may be at least as good as the corn you grow for ten years. ”
"This ...... Someone who understands will be asked to fix it! ”
"Smart and professional, just leave it to the professionals!"
Qu Tushou nodded, he is a military general, he can kill, he can't do business, and he can't do politics. However, he has an identity and a family background, so there will be businessmen who are willing to follow Qu Tu's family, and there will be farmers who are willing, only the benefits are enough.
"This king has given an order to General Chai Shao, let him talk with the Yan Ya and Khitan tribes, and this king will pass on their immortal food and let them send people to learn to grow immortal food."
As Li Yuanxing was talking, Lu Maofeng walked over quickly, and from Lu Maofeng's footsteps, Li Yuanxing heard something abnormal.
"What's wrong?" Li Yuanxing asked softly.
The expression on Lu Maofeng's face was obviously unnatural, and he said in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's go and take a look, the old general Qu Tu seems to be very weird!" ”
Li Yuanxing walked over quickly, but the expression on Qu Tushou's face was not much anxious, but he still said at this time: "Your Highness, my father said a word before leaving the city, he said that he was blind!" ”
Qu Tutong died, and leaned back in the soft chair, with a satisfied smile on his face, but he was no longer breathing.
"Huh......" Li Yuanxing let out a long breath and pointed at Qu Tushou: "You shouldn't, you shouldn't tell this king, let this king ...... Alas...... "Li Yuanxing didn't know what to say."
Qu Tushou knelt down and kowtowed heavily: "Your Highness, a certain generation of father, on behalf of my Qu Tujia, thank Your Highness for your great kindness!" ”
"Get up, this king tells you, hurry up and prepare, and help the coffin into Chang'an. Your father is the founding prince and is eligible to enjoy the national gift, and this king will leave a place for your father on the Soul Tower, go! ”
Qu Tushou kowtowed again, and then let people carry the soft sedan back to Luoyang City.
Li Yuanxing didn't leave, he still stood on this high ground, and touched his mouth and chin with his hand: "Lu Maofeng, hurry up and Chang'an City!" ”
"Yes!" Lu Maofeng took a few steps back and arranged a few words to a guard, who immediately rushed away.
"Arrange it and go back to Chang'an tomorrow morning. Tell Li Zhengbao that when the king was not in Luoyang, Xia Shui had any problems, and the king wanted his head. Anyone who dares to let Luoyang's Xia Shui have a problem, Li Zhengbao will go and cut off that person's head, if he doesn't dare to cut it, he will also escort someone to Chang'an! ”
Lu Maofeng received the order, turned his head to the guard and said, "Did you hear His Highness's order?" ”
"When you hear it, it will naturally be passed on word for word." The guards responded,
Li Yuanxing lit a cigarette, and there was no sadness in his heart, people must die, just look at how they died and when they died.
In a sense, Qu Tutong died at this time, and as he said, he was blinded.
The autumn harvest will certainly not stop.
The mourning hall of Qu Tu's family was set up in just one hour, and all of this was prepared for a long time.
The people in Luoyang City went to offer incense and said some comforting words.
Joy and sorrow! Seventy-two years old, this is Bai Xi in the Tang Dynasty, the Qu Tu family is a family of military generals, and the filial sons will not cry, but they are implementing a very strange rule, which is the family rule of their Qu Tu family.
"My father, you are in debt!" Everyone who came in to offer condolences was asked by Qu Tushou.
The people who came in were a little puzzled at first, but after there were more people, the people in front would whisper reminders to the people who came in behind.
When someone replied: "No, the old general Qu Tu is benevolent." ”
Then Qu Tushou will answer loudly: "My father can rest assured, if there is a debt, I will wait for the son to pay a debt for my father!" ”
A good one is in the ground, and life and death are not indebted.
Li Yuanxing, who was standing in front of the spirit card, did not give a salute, but just stood silently like that.
When everyone came in, Qu Tushou would ask that sentence, but Li Yuanxing came in, he just gave a salute, but he didn't ask. Li Yuanxing stood there silently, he just stayed aside, didn't ask, and didn't speak.
Every guest also watched from afar, and no one dared to talk much, because there was the King of Tang Qin, the King of Tang Qin wearing plain clothes.
"Take five feet of white silk!" Li Yuanxing spoke. At that moment, Qu Tu's family sent it.
Li Yuanxing gave a look, and Lu Maofeng and a personal guard pulled Bai Aya away.
Li Yuanxing wrote with a pen: Or ask Qu Tutong who is loyal to the Sui and made contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and who is more famous for the two countries, why not? Answer: If you are pure and sincere, you will meet the Lord, and you will be able to do things with one hundred kings, and you would rather be limited to two countries! was captured by Chousang, and there was no way to avoid difficulties; The people who break the benevolence and the high are all wealthy, and the gentleman is a gentleman! Praise: Qu Tu observes the festival, and seeks benevolence. (To be continued......)
PS: The second watch is a little late, tomorrow will be as soon as possible, and there will be a change on the 20th,
