Chapter 64: Don't be complacent

Yun Chu was in a good mood when he returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

With so much cetacean wax in exchange for some rice, this thing can make a lot of more valuable candles with just one mold.

And Wen Rou was still angry, and he wrote the second half of Yun Chu's new poem "Human Environment" on a large piece of paper.

Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely see the South Mountain. The mountain weather is good, and the birds are returning. There is a true meaning in this, and I have forgotten to distinguish it.

Seeing Yun Chu coming in, he beckoned: "Come and see the second half of the poem I wrote, how does it compare to your poem?"

Yun Chu read it carefully, thought about this poet of the Eastern Jin Dynasty for a while, and nodded: "How do you know that I think so, you eavesdropped on my dreams?"

Gently shook her head and said, "Although I don't have a heart, I have never wanted to forget all the things I have done here.

I will admit that I did the good things, and I will admit the bad things that I did, but I think in my heart that we have done a lot of evil things here, so at this time, we can't recite such heartless words when we are guilty, and they are recited on the street.

I thought it was a stain on that feeling.

And I think you're a little complacent right now. ”

Yun Chu didn't expect that getting a poem wrong would bring such a big touch to Gentleness, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that Gentleness was right.

Since leaving the environment of Chang'an and out of Li Ji's control, he has indeed been negligent in his thinking.

"Be careful, the matter is not over yet, what we are doing has not yet been recognized by the imperial court, I really don't know what kind of pride you are at this time, I don't need to say anything about the people who travel a hundred miles and half ninety."

"You just got angry about that?"

"What makes me even more angry is that when Gao Wen praised you, you didn't say that this was Tao Yuanming's poem, which is very cheap, and it will make Gao Wen look down on you in his heart."

Yun Chu was silent for a moment and said, "I know." ”

Wen Rou immediately smiled and said, "What did you get back from the dock that can make you so happy?"

"Two hundred barrels of whale wax."

I thought that Wen Rou would be very happy, but I didn't expect it, so I smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty is preparing to build your own mausoleum, and you have found so much whale wax at this time, it is the right time." ”

"What does Your Majesty's construction of a mausoleum for himself have to do with whale wax?"

"Because there will be two huge lamp pools built in His Majesty's mausoleum, enshrined in two eternal lamps that have not been extinguished for thousands of years, once Your Majesty really starts to build a mausoleum place, your two hundred barrels of whale wax will bring ruin to Daxing City."

Yun Chu looked at the gentleness, and wanted to see Zhong Kui again, but Zhong Kui was not there, Yun Chu said: "Your Majesty will ask Daxingcheng to take out 20,000 barrels of whale wax?"

Gentlely: "There may also be 200,000 barrels of whale wax, if such a situation occurs, how many people will die in the sea?"

This kind of thing is not without precedent, just think about how many people died in the Qinba Mountains in order to build the rivers, lakes and seas in the mausoleum of the first emperor.

Over the years, there have been countless disputes between courtiers and emperors of all dynasties over the construction of mausoleums.

He also died countless courtiers, the purpose of which was to prevent the emperor from repeating the mistakes of the first emperor.

Under the soup pond on the edge of the Tang Li Mountain, even in such a cold winter, some green onions, leeks, pineapples, these green leafy vegetables, enter Shuzhong, there are some places in Hanzhong Even in winter, there are fresh vegetables and vegetables, do you know why Your Majesty's table is basically not on these things in winter?"

Yun Chu frowned and said, "Didn't you say that you don't eat non-seasonal vegetables for the sake of health?"

Gently shook his head and said, "No, it's to restrict the emperor from spending too much." For example, my family has a soup pond in Lishan, which can produce hundreds of catties of fresh vegetables every year, and our family closes the door every time we eat these things in winter, and the eldest woman in the family makes it in the small kitchen. ”

Yun Chu sighed and said, "So, am I wrong?"

Said gently: "Whale wax is not only here in Daxing City, but also in the coastal areas of Datang." Do you really think that everyone doesn't know how to use good things, so you have to make this thing expensive and make it look like everyone can't afford to use it?

?

The consequences are too severe.

My grandfather and the others finally persuaded Emperor Taizong to use the mountain ridge as a mausoleum, and the mausoleum was simply furnished, which was a table for eternity, in case His Majesty used these two hundred barrels of whale wax as a breakthrough......"

What Wen Wen said were some unspoken rules in the Tang court, although these unspoken rules were not explicitly stipulated, they were a regulation that the courtiers in the court were willing to abide by.

It's not something that a person like Yun Chu who suddenly changed from a commoner to a gentleman can know.

Yun Chu is willing to praise these unspoken rules as - limiting imperial power!

The emperor's authority is basically unlimited, and if there is really one person in this world who can do whatever he wants, this person must be the emperor.

Before the Tang Dynasty, mad emperors emerged one after another, and the disasters they brought to their subjects were also obvious to all.

Since everyone wants to live in peace, then the emperor must not be allowed to become a pervert or a madman.

Under the imperial power, everything has to rely on subtlety, and everything needs to have the effect of spring breeze and rain to moisten the emperor in silence.

Gentle is definitely a good friend, the problem is that this friend copied half of Tao Yuanming's poems and personally pasted them on Yun Chu's bedside, which is very excessive, Yun Chu doesn't want to hang up his shame, and Gentle is very resolute.

This night, Yun Chu couldn't sleep well under Tao Yuanming's poems, and he always felt that Tao Yuanming's ghost was standing above his head and looking at him coldly.

After all, Yun Chu made those whale wax into candles and put them in the barracks for the soldiers to use.

Although it was suspected of destroying the heavens to use such a good candle for these people, the soldiers were still very happy to use it, because this kind of candle really has no smoke and is much better than an oil lamp.

Of course, that's all, they just think that this thing is a specialty in the area of Daxing City. Baidu search|7|4|文|学|网|See the latest chapters of the Tang people's dining table.

Yun Chu stood in front of the map, and he could not imagine the appearance of a large-scale march of 200,000 troops among the mountains and hills of Goguryeo.

However, when he drilled out of the mountains, he had not yet seen the first Goguryeo city behind the Yalu water, and the city of Huyi was humiliated, and the Goguryeo army ushered in a desperate counterattack.

Li Ji knew that this was the last courage that the country of Goguryeo could show, so he set up a camp with his back to the mountains, and constantly sent generals to lead troops to raid everywhere, so as to wear out the last resistance of the Goguryeo people.

This time, he not only wants to kill, but also kills the last courage of the Goguryeo people.

The Tang army, which fought against the Goguryeo people in the ice and snow for the first time, did not feel any discomfort, and with the abundant food and material supply in the country, the morale was high and the victory was one after another.

The sailors led by Liu Renliang continued to harass along the Goguryeo sea, and the sails of the Tang Dynasty sailors could be seen everywhere in coastal cities such as Changyuan, Neimi, Qiuyi, and Changkou.

The Silla army, under the command of the Silla general Kim Yu-shin, also marched from the direction of Kaeyeong to the southern town of Mobiseong.

At the same time, when Su Dingfang was seriously ill, Bae Xingjian was tormented by the black tooth Changzhi in Baekje, and the planned operation to fight Goguryeo with the Silla army had to be completed by the Silla people alone.

After Yun Chu issued the latest team of grain and straw sent to Humyi City, he said to Zhong Kui and Wang Defa, who were escorting the grain and grass this time: "After the grain and grass are delivered, rush back as soon as possible, don't stay in the army for more." ”

Zhong Kui said, "Will there be any danger that I don't know about?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I just don't want you to get involved in this superfluous war for us again. ”

Zhong Kui was puzzled and said, "Why is it a redundant battle?"

Yun Chu sighed and said, "Because it's all at this time, I don't want to get involved with gunpowder." ”

Zhong Kui's eyes lit up and said, "Ying Gong is finally going to use gunpowder in Humiliation City?"

Yun Chu said: "Twelve days have not yet conquered the city of humiliation, and it will be a great shame for Ying Gong to lose the lives of the soldiers."

The most important thing is that the remaining elite soldiers of Goguryeo are humiliating the city, and only a large-scale explosion can completely shatter the resistance of the Goguryeo people, and I even suspect that Ying Gong is still testing whether I am interested in gunpowder by specifying that the soldiers and horses of Daxingcheng will transport these unimportant materials this time.

This

It was the last chance that Ying Gong gave me to participate in the war.

My attitude is still - no. ”

Zhong Kui left Daxing City with the soldiers of the government and the slave soldiers of the three brothers of the Wang family, because with the horse-drawn plough and the ice and snow all over the ground, they advanced very fast, and those who hindered the journey of the Tang army for half a month, Zhong Kui and they should be able to arrive in Huyi City within ten days.

"This may be the last big battle of Yinggong, and after being rejected by you, I am afraid it will not be easy to come to the door in the future."

Seeing that Yun Chu's expression was not good, Gentle said worriedly.

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "When the Ying Gong is relieved and returns to the field, our relationship will really get better, rest assured, when I go to the Ying Gong's Mansion to beg for wine in the future, he will still give it, and it will only be good wine." ”

"Xu Jingye has made a career in Tuyuhun?"

Yun Chu laughed and said: "Zhang Cambodia was expelled from the Tuyuhun camp under the attack of Xu Jingye, who was supported by the people of the Li family's Longyou Dao, and his whereabouts were unknown.

Now, Xu Jingye has created a piece of extraterritorial territory for the boss of Yinggong's family, and Yinggong should thank me. ”

Said gently: "So, this last opportunity to fight in Goguryeo is Ying Gong's reaction to this matter?"

Yun Chu laughed and said: "It is also the last chance for him to tie me up, let Zhong Kui and them send military rations, Ying Gong should know that I have no ambition for his grandson, and even a person who is kind to his Li family, but has no plans."

What do you think should happen to someone as selfless as me?"
