Chapter 753: You're Poisonous
The common people are like grass mustard, and the spring breeze blows and grows.
This is probably how the powerful think of ordinary people.
But for Li Qinzai, the common people are not grass mustard, they are strong and forbearing.
The major event of changing the dynasty was a group of grass mustards who couldn't survive at first, so they simply gave up everything and climbed to the heights, so the general trend has been achieved, invincible, and the old dynasty collapsed.
Li Qinzai never dared to treat the people as grass mustard to be trampled on at will, on the contrary, he was always in awe of the people at the bottom, no matter how high his status and power, he should be very respectful.
He knew very well that it was these hard-working people who carried his status and wealth.
Don't say anything like loving the people like a son, people work hard and hand over food to feed you, no matter what, you are polite to others, right?
If you can do your best to help people when they are in need, it wouldn't be too much, right?
Li Qinzai's original intention of direct advice is probably like this.
It's not great, it's not that pure. To put it bluntly, one is that he is not used to Li Zhidese's vain face, and the other is that he is not used to the behavior of the monarch and his ministers to increase the burden on the people for no reason.
You are in the palace with Erlang's legs crossed and picking your teeth, and Yun Qingfeng said lightly that I want to seal Zen, and the people below have to leave their hometowns and their wives are separated, why?
The emperor should also be reasonable.
It's just that Li Qinzai didn't expect that his risky efforts would be rewarded after all.
The simple people were actually better able to distinguish between loyalty and treachery than the emperor.
Facing Li Qinzai's kneeling, Li Qinzai gained something more meaningful than an official.
The people's hearts have always been visible and tangible.
…………
Hundreds of people thanked him, and Li Qinzai felt at a loss for the first time, and he didn't know how to respond to the people's full gratitude.
Picking up one and kneeling down the other, Li Qinzai was in a hurry, and finally received the people's bowing salute.
The people did not come empty-handed, but all brought some gifts, some were a few eggs, some were half a piece of jerky, and some simply picked a large basket of wild vegetables.
The simple and poor people really don't know how to express their gratitude, so they can only do their best to make the gifts they give to their benefactors seem less shabby.
Li Qinzai was going to refuse, but as soon as the words came out, people were in a posture of kneeling without saying a word, so Li Qinzai had to reluctantly accept it.
After sending away the people and villagers who were grateful for their kindness, Li Qinzai looked at the gifts piled up outside the door, smiled wryly and sighed.
If Li Zhi was also present just now, seeing this scene, he must not have the idea of sealing Zen at all.
The people's hearts cannot be bullied, if the Son of Heaven cannot understand this truth, his position is afraid that it will not be very stable.
In the afternoon, Li Qinzai went to the school and taught his disciples new knowledge.
Outcome...... Of course, it is as unsatisfactory as ever, or else? Do you expect this group of goods to suddenly turn into geniuses who draw inferences?
Going to class with a smile on his face, Li Qinzai was full of tenderness, after all, the performance of the disciples in his own affairs made Li Qinzai feel very warm and gratified.
However, halfway through the class, Li Qinzai's gentleness gradually turned into anger.
What kind of sin did I create in my previous life, I want to teach such a group of things that are stupider than pigs, if I am guilty, please send a divine thunder from heaven to give me a good time, why torture me so much......
Fortunately, there are two top students in the classroom, Princess Xuancheng and Buck'er, which can be regarded as the only comfort in Li Qinzai's teaching career.
When the sandalwood board rang, Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief, and the disciples below also breathed a sigh of relief, coming back to life from the suffocating low pressure.
"Goodbye! …… No, it's better never to see you again! After Li Qinzai threw down the next sentence, he walked away without looking back.
After leaving the school, Li Qinzai did not go home, but went to inspect the field as usual.
The sweet potatoes have been planted for more than a month, and now the green shoots in the field have turned into palm-sized green leaves, and the rhizomes under the green leaves are thick, and several old farmers are staring at the ground without blinking, as if these green leaves are the lives of their ancestors handed down for eighteen generations.
The guards were still dutifully around, and as usual, not a single fly could fly in the sky. Among the thousands of guards, I don't know how many of them are sharpshooters, staring at the sky with cold eyes, holding bows and arrows in their hands.
Li Qinzai has a special status, and the heavy guards do not defend him.
Walking into the field, the guards automatically got out of the way, and Li Qinzai squatted in front of a few green leaves, carefully observing their growth.
The growth was pleasant, and judging from the thick rhizomes, it was clear that the nutrients were sufficient, and it was not long before the sweet potatoes were ripe and their harvest was ...... It will shock the world.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and then a figure came to Li Qinzai's side, Li Qinzai turned his head, and found that it was Li Zhi.
Li Qinzai was taken aback, no one had communicated beforehand, and when he left Taiji Palace silently today, he came from afar again?
Today's Li Zhi is wearing an ordinary purple shirt, dressed very plainly, and there are no luxurious ornaments on his body, even the hairpin that fixes the bun is an ordinary iron hairpin.
Li Qinzai hurriedly got up and planned to salute, but was pulled back by Li Zhi, and the two monarchs and ministers squatted side by side in the ground facing the green leaves, carefully observing the growth of the sweet potatoes.
"In another three or two months, the harvest will probably be completed, right?" Li Zhi asked slowly.
Li Qinzai thought for a while and said, "Maybe, April and May are also possible." ”
Li Zhi said dissatisfiedly: "The thing was discovered by you, why don't you have a fixed number?" If I miss the harvest and the sweet potatoes are rotting in the field, who will find seeds for me? ”
Li Qinzai smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, things are discovered by ministers, not born by ministers, and ministers are also seeking the truth in groping......
Li Zhi snorted, stopped speaking, and continued to stare at the sweet potato leaf in front of him.
It's a little embarrassing, but not entirely embarrassing.
A few days ago, the confrontation between the monarch and the ministers in the court was extremely sharp, and Li Qinzai almost caused the disaster of death.
But today Li Zhi came silently, and the two of them squatted together as if they were nothing.
The child will make a fuss, and will say "I won't play with you in the future", and if they meet in the future, the child who holds a grudge may also let out an angry snort.
But Li Qinzai and Li Zhi are both adults, and the adults have made an awkward fuss, and they plan to reconcile, how to operate?
At about this moment, as if nothing had happened, squatting together and calculating sweet potatoes.
It's good, you don't have to give steps, and you don't have to accompany a smiley face.
"This thing is food, I heard you say it tastes good, it'...... Is it really delicious? Li Zhi muttered.
Li Qinzai nodded: "It's delicious, soft and glutinous, with a little sweetness, raw or cooked, roasted, it's okay." ”
Li Zhi licked his lips: "I am so hungry that I can't wait to ......"
Li Qinzai blinked: "Why don't we dig one out and try it?" ”
Li Zhi was stunned: "There are only a few seeds in total, do you want to dig one out?" ”
Li Qinzai pouted with bad intentions: "One less day and it won't fall, let's taste it first, then we will have more confidence in sweet potatoes...... Your Majesty, the taste is very beautiful. ”
Li Zhi was obviously moved: "This ...... Not okay? ”
"Your Majesty, give the minister a face!"
"Then ......" Just when Li Zhi couldn't help but almost agreed, a cold wind blew, Li Zhi's cheeks were cold, and he was full of excitement, and he suddenly woke up.
It's amazing, were you hypnotized by this thing just now? How could I do such a thing that was contrary to the people and to the faith?
"You, you...... Li Jingchu, you are poisonous! Li Zhi said angrily.
