There are many gangs in Chang'an City, large and small.

In the hands of the family, in addition to the Iron Wolf Gang, of course, there are other gangs.

But the people who honestly do official affairs in the imperial court really don't know much about the underground world of Chang'an.

These ministers looked at each other, and they were not sure whether what Lu Heng said was true.

Right now.

Li Chengqian, who was at the front of the courtiers, slid the wheel of the wheelchair with his hand, and slid to Lu Heng's side with some effort.

He arched his hand at Li Shimin and said:

"Father, the minister can testify to this."

"When Erchen and Lu Heng went outside the city for the first time to check on the situation of the displaced people, the members of the Tiger Head Gang had already begun to distribute dry food to the displaced people."

"It's not just the two of us, Sun Simiao was the divine doctor at that time, he was also treating the homeless people, and he saw things clearly."

"The Tiger Head Gang is not the kind of rabble that does nonsense, please also ask my father to know it!"

After listening to the words of the two of them, Li Shimin did not speak immediately, but pondered.

His face was unfazed, not knowing what he was thinking.

But Cheng Biting Jin, an old fritter, has already sensed that something is wrong!

He hurriedly stood up from the military general's side and arched his hand:

"Your Majesty, this Tiger Head Gang, in fact, the minister has also heard of it!"

"I heard that their gang leader is not young, and he is a capable person who has been wandering in a foreign country for many years."

"The reason why he returned to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was because he wanted to return to his roots and did not want to die overseas, and he had a lot of people on hand, and he was worried that he would form an uncontrollable force after all of them were dismissed, so he brought some back to Chang'an."

"However, the Tiger Head Gang has basically not done anything illegal and undisciplined over the years......

"It seems that because their helper warned the people below, saying that he had a relationship with His Majesty many years ago in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and at that time he felt that His Majesty had the appearance of a master, so he asked his subordinates not to cause trouble for His Majesty, and to cherish the stable life of Datang now."

Seeing that Li Shimin's face was becoming more and more relaxed, Cheng Biting Jin wiped the beads of sweat on his head without a trace.

He was already sweating for Li Chengqian in his heart.

Lu Heng is open-mouthed, everyone knows it, and His Majesty won't mind too much.

But does he, the crown prince, know what he was talking about just now?!

A mere gang is orderly and doesn't do anything wrong, and that's it.

Will they even give dry food relief to the homeless?

Isn't this just buying the hearts of the people!

The most taboo thing for the emperor is this kind of gang that does not do bad things but does good deeds.

If a reasonable explanation is not given, maybe Lu Heng will be able to be good today, but the Tiger Head Gang will inevitably be completely cleansed!

Really.

Li Shimin smiled and nodded.

"Yes, there are not many people who are adrift overseas, but they can still remember their homeland."

He turned his head to look at Lu Heng and asked:

"Since you said that you got benefits from the Tiger Head Gang leader......"

"Then I'm a little curious, what is it that makes you think it's a benefit?"

Lu Heng's family is not short of money, and even more is money.

This kind of child raised by others, ordinary petty profits will not impress him.

As for the right ......

Li Shimin doesn't think that there is anyone in this world who has more power than himself.

If Lu Heng wanted power, he could ask himself for an official position when he first met the saint.

Everyone has greed.

Li Shimin is indeed very curious now, what can arouse Lu Heng's greed!

"Your Majesty, the minister is ready."

Lu Heng arched his hand and said:

"Please also ask for your permission, let He De bring the things prepared by the ministers."

His Majesty Li Er, who has long been curious, has nothing to do.

He De turned around and walked out of the Taiji Palace, and after a while, he carried a basket into the main hall with some difficulty.

The Manchu civil and military stared at the basket of soil and were dumbfounded.

This is the benefit that the Tiger Head Gang gave to Lu Heng?

A basket of soil???

Crazy begging!

Xiao Yu sneered:

"Lu Heng, the old man reminds you that bullying the king is also a crime of raiding the family and destroying the door!"

"Dare to fool Your Majesty with this kind of thing, be careful of your neck!"

Lu Heng seemed to have completely ignored this person, and he even felt troublesome.

He only spoke to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, this is what the Tiger Head Gang leader gave to the minister."

"But when he gave it to the minister, even until now, he didn't know what it was, so the minister picked up a big bargain."

Hearing this, Li Shimin sat up straight and began to seriously examine the ordinary basket.

If Lu Heng hadn't exaggerated......

There should be something really good here.

After all, he is a kid who is not even greedy for salt and is willing to hand it over directly to the imperial court, Li Shimin doesn't think that Lu Heng has no knowledge.

This somewhat straightforward young man, although he is not from a famous family, and he is a little too direct in many things, he must have had some adventures.

What can make Lu Heng so solemn?

Li Shimin said in a deep voice:

"What's so magical about your basket of soil?"

Lu Heng laughed, smiling brightly.

"Your Majesty, it's not this basket of soil that's magical, it's what is buried in the soil."

"Do you remember what the minister said in front of you and your grandfather just three or four months ago?"

His Majesty Li Er's brows furrowed, and he took out the picture of every meeting between himself and Lu Heng and recalled it carefully.

When did I meet Lu Heng with Fang Xuanling......

Suddenly.

He raised his head, his eyes lit up a little amazingly, and he stared at Lu Heng!

"I remembered."

"You said then that there are several crops beyond the ocean!"

As soon as he said this, His Majesty Li Er stopped.

He was still not sure what Lu Heng had brought, so how outrageous those crops were, he couldn't tell them in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.

In his expectant gaze.

Lu Heng nodded.

"The things in the basket are one of the things that the minister told you before."

"There are two other things as well, but because of the season, only potatoes can be planted at the moment, and the other two will have to wait until April and May next year."

"As for the origin of these crops......

He thought about it for a moment, skimmed most of the bearded man's experience at sea, and briefly talked about it.

Then he continued:

"After all, the seeds of these crops have been brought back for a year or two, and the minister was not sure if they were bad or not, so he didn't tell you first, for fear that you would be disappointed."

"Potatoes were planted shortly before the plague, just around the time of the stubble. Three days ago, the harvest had just begun. ”

"The minister brought a whole fruit and buried it in the soil for easy preservation, so you can see it for yourself."

Lu Heng was about to hand over the basket to He De and ask him to present it to His Majesty Li Er.

But Li Shimin, who has always been reserved, now rushed down from the high dragon chair in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

Go straight to Lu Heng!
