Chapter 97: Youzhou (53)

Previous Chapter

During this period, the powerful wanted to marry the Lan family and marry Lan Yabing, the daughter of the Lan family, but was rejected by the Lan family. The other party wanted the emperor to give him a marriage, but the emperor stood on the side of the Lan family, and the matter was settled.

Later, it was rumored in Beijing that Lan Wanling and Lan Yaqing had been kidnapped by thieves in Youzhou, and the people who originally wanted to come to the door to see it had their minds rested. Fortunately, Lu Yingfang was not afraid, comforted the two little girls, and then asked the queen for help.

The queen frequently invited the ladies of the Lan family into the palace, which made Wanling and Yaqing's reputation much better. In particular, the queen also invited two little girls to stay in the palace for a few days.

It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and now that the emperor and queen in Beijing support the Lan family, no one is bored with the Lan family.

Later, Zeng Ge Lao Bao Media, Lan Yabing decided to marry the sister-in-law of a third-grade official, the other party's conduct was good, and Yabing could be regarded as a high climber. However, the other party values the prestige and family style of the Lan family more, and both parties are happy.

The Zhao family, the Qian family and the Sun family, as well as the Li family in Jiangnan, are all very attentive, and they all have New Year's gifts every New Year's Day.

Lan Rongcheng returned to Dashan Village, Jinda, and wanted to take the old hunter to Beijing, but the old hunter was reluctant to leave his hometown. So Lan Rongcheng helped Dashan Village to build a road, so that the village built a good house for the old hunter. Lan Rong promised to send New Year's gifts to people during the New Year's Festival, and the villagers and the county order did not dare to despise it, and took great care of the old hunters. Wan'er's grandmother and the people from her grandfather's family all wanted to come up and ask for a bargain, but they were all unceremoniously dismissed.

Because several people who bought the ice-making recipe went to the mine to buy saltpeter, which attracted the attention of all parties, the ice-making recipe had been leaked in the second year, and the eldest princess was angry and felt that the money was not worth it. Lu Yingfang contributed to the drying method of sea salt, and the eldest princess can share half of the profits if she contributes money and efforts, and the rest of the income goes into the treasury. Since then, the eldest princess has been kind to the Lan family, and no one in the capital dares to target the Lan family anymore.

On August 19, the fourth year of Kang Chun, the small steel ball in the seismograph in the palace suddenly spit out of the dragon's mouth and fell into the toad's mouth. This direction points to Longxi. The matter was immediately reported, which alarmed the government and the opposition. The emperor immediately sent troops and grain to Longxi, and less than seven days later, Longxi was earthquaked.

Last year's monthly magazine wrote about the post-earthquake relief and epidemic prevention work, and officials followed the measures written above to prevent the epidemic, using large quantities of lime to disinfect the epidemic, preventing villagers from drinking water from the river, and even burning the corpses. This time there was no plague to spread.

Five years ago, the Longxi earthquake caused countless victims, and the plague caused ten rooms and nine emptiness. It's a blessing that so many people are alive today.

Lu Yingfang received thousands of merit points at once.

- Wow, host, after the earthquake in Longxi, the officials deployed according to your monthly magazine, and 3,000 people lived. Your merit is still rising! Even the people of unrelated states and counties think that you are a living bodhisattva!

Lu Yingfang: The tree is a big move, I just need merit points.

The emperor was very relieved, and invited Lu Yingfang to ask, and learned that after the ancestor of the Lan family went to the heavenly realm, he had no contact, especially when the old lady Lan patted his head and told him that one day in the sky and one year in the ground.

If the ancestor of the Lan family went to Heavenly Court to work for more than a month, wouldn't it be more than thirty years in the world? The emperor looked at Lu Yingfang for a long, long time, and then gave him a lot of nourishing and healthy medicinal materials.

Lu Yingfang was very different, the emperor hoped that she could live a long time and be able to survive until the ancestor of the Lan family came again. For this, the system rattled and laughed for a long, long time......

In the spring of the fifth year of Kangchun, Lu Yingfang entered the palace and took out a thing named Potato, saying that it was brought from the heavenly realm by the old ancestor, but the old ancestor was very busy and would not come back for the time being.

Lu Yingfang also wrote down the detailed planting method of potatoes on paper, because the crops in the heavenly realm are different when they arrive in the world, and sometimes they are toxic, so they still need to ......

The emperor didn't listen carefully to what Lu Yingfang said, because he was confused by the figure of more than 1,000 catties per mu!

A basket of potatoes was like a treasure, and it was carefully served by the emperor.

By the spring of the sixth year of Kangchun, potatoes had slowly spread to the four towns and villages in Tai'an. Everyone is reluctant to eat the harvested potatoes, and they are basically seeds.

In the autumn of the seventh year of Kangchun, locusts broke out in Yuzhou. The surrounding counties and cities immediately culled the larvae, caught the adults, burned the fires, and dried the locusts for food.

Fortunately, potatoes grow in the ground, and potatoes are grown in the surrounding states and counties, so they can be brought in quickly.

This is the only time in history that locusts have crossed the border without starving people.

At this time, the emperor re-gave the title of Beidinghou, and the fourth Lan Ronghe inherited the title. In fact, the emperor wanted Lan Rongcheng to inherit the title, but Lan Rongcheng refused. He is already a third-grade official, so it is better to give the fourth brother a chance!

For this reason, Aunt Bai was so angry that she cried for several days.

- Host, the merit value has been detected to be 6,000, do you want to exchange things in the mall? You see, there are health pills, and they can support you for another sixty years.

Lv Yingfang: Live until your teeth fall out and you become incontinent, thank you, no need.

- Look at it, there's this, the martial arts cheats pill. After eating, you will be a martial arts master.

Lu Yingfang: And then the chivalrous woman breaks into the world? I didn't get the script wrong. If I show my martial arts, the emperor will think that I have been dropped, right? Let the superior suspect, inappropriate, inappropriate. Besides, I can't take this martial art with me, so it's useless to learn it. I don't usually have a chance to use it.

- Then look at this, this pill......

Lv Yingfang: Please turn off the phone, thank you!

- Boom......

Lu Yingfang searched for her memory, and it seemed that there would be no locusts after that, so the sweet potatoes and corn could be taken out. Now I have enough merit points, and at the same time, I can buy things in the mall without any pressure.

In the spring of the eighth year of Kangchun, sweet potatoes and corn were brought by the ancestors from the heavenly realm.

At the same time, smallpox broke out, but fortunately, the imperial doctor planted cowpox on people, and the prescription provided by the old lady of the Lan family, which stifled the spread of smallpox.

The old lady of the Lan family gave Mrs. Yipin, and the Lan Mansion once again received a lot of rewards.

Although Tai'an has experienced many natural disasters in recent years, the people's lives are very rich, waterwheels are widely used, agricultural tools have been improved repeatedly, new crops are high-yielding, and the people's grain is abundant. In addition, many schools and newspapers and periodicals have been set up in various places, so that many peasant children have the hope of literacy and reading, and many poor scholars have the opportunity to contribute articles to earn money and gain fame.

The convenience and simplicity of drying salt have reduced the price of salt and the cost of living for the people.

"Gewu Monthly" was classified as the imperial court very early, and many stories were written in it to punish evil and promote good, and each issue had recipes to promote, and the education of patriotism made many peasant children willing to join the army to earn a future.

Because Tai'an is strong, Hui Hui does not dare to commit it again. The emperor followed the advice of the Lan family and began to trade with Hui Hui. The Uighurs relied on wool and meat products in exchange for salt and other household items.

Because of the popularity of ondols, many crops can grow, which makes people have more dishes in winter.

The Lan family has published books such as "Me and My Ancestors", "My Motherland and Me", "Revenge of Rebirth", "Great Recipe", "Medical Sect Jinjian", "Youzhou Ji", "Three Character Classic", "Flower Chowder" and other books.

Youzhou Xie family power was suppressed, Xie Yutao because of the "Youzhou Ji" written in his youth and famous, he became the head of the Xie family, but also with Xiao Changshan to improve Youzhou education, his younger brother has been studying the compilation of children's textbooks, the children's poems and children's books he compiled, widely circulated, good response. Both brothers were praised by the emperor.

Liang Ming of the Pingyang City Huimin Bureau resigned, insisted on going to Beijing, went to the Taiyi Department to study medical skills, and later moved his family to the capital. He became the Lan family's special doctor.

Li Cai and Zeng Shuzhi were also admitted to the Jinshi, both became Beijing officials, and were staunch supporters of the Lan family.

In the thirty years of Kang Chun, the old lady of the Lan family passed away at the age of eighty-five, the whole country mourned, the emperor gave the title of "Mrs. Dingguo", and the four sons of the Lan family were knighted.

The people spontaneously built a temple to worship Mrs. Dingguo. There are temples of Mrs. Dingguo everywhere in Tai'an, and the people spontaneously worship them, and the incense is continuous.
