Since Li Shimin, the king of Qin, ascended the throne and became emperor, he arranged for people to come to Shandong, hoping that their Confucian family would go to Chang'an City to take up their posts.

But how did Li Shimin's position as emperor come about, no one in the whole world does not know.

Although they are said to be Confucians, they only study academics and do not participate in the affairs of the court.

But the killing of his brother and the imprisonment of his father did not match many of their Confucian ideas.

Coupled with his attitude towards Confucianism after Li Shimin ascended the throne and became emperor, everyone felt that there was a charm of imminent departure.

It is said that it is valued, but it is not particularly important.

If he doesn't pay attention to it, he will arrange them as guests for his own interests.

is like those Confucian children who were arranged to Chang'an before.

Although it is not their main family, it also represents the attitude of the Confucian family.

In addition to Confucianism, the Legalists and Soldiers were also quite active in Chang'an City and were favored by the emperor.

It's just that this time they didn't go to Chang'an to see the emperor.

The main reason why these people went to Chang'an City was to meet someone.

In fact, as early as this spring, they wanted to go over and see them in person.

The Confucian family in Chang'an City completed the three-character scripture and other book excerpts, and sent people to Shandong to their Confucian family.

For talented people, everyone can be said to have great respect.

Originally, I was thinking about the beginning of spring, so I went to Chang'an City.

But as soon as this matter got busy, it went on and on, so that it was delayed for a long time.

It wasn't until this summer that I thought about going to Chang'an City to visit this everyone.

As soon as they walked out of the city, they met tens of thousands of people on the official road.

The people gathered together and drew near in the direction of their city.

When the curtain was opened and the people who were rushing towards the city outside, everyone was very unhappy.

It is the people who are in the pit of the great plague.

As they walked, they saw a common man, and with a plop, he fell directly to the side, and happened to be planted in front of their carriage.

Repeatedly.

The person who was driving the car in front immediately pulled the horse down.

"What's wrong? What happened? ”

"Master, in front of our carriage, one of the victims seems to be fainting from hunger."

"We have food on our wagon, so we bring food and water and give it to this group of victims."

"It's Master."

Several students stepped forward and helped the victim to his feet, fetched water, and poured some water into his mouth.

Seeing the way his mouth was dry, I knew that he hadn't eaten for a long time.

After drinking the water, the whole body is full of some vitality.

Then he put the food in his mouth, and the whole person came back to life with full blood.

The craving for food gave him motivation, picked up something, and devoured it.

"Slow down, slow down, don't choke."

Seeing that these wagons were delivering food, the surrounding victims gathered around.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Please, please give us some food.

Yes, my lord, please give us some food, give us some food, we haven't eaten for 5 days and 5 nights. ”

No, this court's decree has already spread all over the country.

All state capitals and counties are required to open warehouses for grain release.

Even if there are disaster victims, they know about it, but it doesn't mean that these disaster victims haven't eaten for days and nights, right?

"Tell me, what's going on here, and why?"

As he spoke, the crowd intermittently told them what had happened to them.

They were also local people in Shandong, and they had dug deep wells according to His Majesty's orders.

This year's drought has dried up the shallow wells, and there are still some deep wells, and people think they can make a living.

Who would have thought that this year's drought would be so severe that even the deep well would have dried up.

As a last resort, there was no water or food at all, so they could only approach the county seat.

However, after arriving at the county seat, I found that the county seat was also a very large number of victims.

And several deep wells in the county town are gradually drying up.

They can only eat one meal a day, or gruel, they can't eat enough, the summer is scorching, and there is a lack of water for 10 minutes.

As a last resort, everyone had no choice but to leave the county town and run towards a bigger city, hoping to survive.

Hearing what these people said, the faces of the Kong family and his party became very ugly.

How is this possible?

If they are short of water, it is understandable that everyone will not be able to drink water and will have to flee.

How can it be that you can't eat food, haven't all the saints already opened warehouses to release grain?

Could it be that some officials have corrupted and bent the law to occupy this grain privately?

If that's the case, I'd have to go there myself and take a good look.

Thinking of this, he was originally going to Chang'an City, but then he changed his direction and went to the county seat they said, but he wanted to find out for himself.

Drive, drive, drive.

Time flies, it's fleeting!

There are still two days to go, and it is the birthday banquet of the emperor.

For a long time, the Emperor Taishang has also adhered to various festivals and carried out in a way that does not make a big deal.

If it is a previous emperor, a birthday or other festival, you should start preparing for it months in advance.

And he, Li Yuan, was only two days in advance.

A large amount of liquor was purchased in the palace, and because of the purchase of the imperial palace in the court, the wine in the homes of their group of clan lords could only be delayed for a few days.

Although the big guy was very unhappy in his heart, he just dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

After all, this is the birthday banquet of the Emperor Taishang, and there is no need to contradict the royal family because of this matter.

The entire court also began to dress up quietly.

Daming Palace, inside and outside the palace are pasted with a big longevity word.

All the relatives of the emperor also rushed back in advance in other places to prepare to participate in the birthday banquet of the emperor.

Zhaojiazhuang.

Now that he has promised Lao Li, Zhao Mu must have to handle the matter properly.

After a night of hard work, a three-tiered cake with a diameter of one meter and arranged from large to small was completed.

This height is more than half a person's height, if this cake is arranged in Chang'an City, it is arranged in his Li Mansion.

When he Lao Li pushes this thing up, he will definitely be able to blind everyone's eyes.

Because the birthday banquet would be held at noon, in the afternoon of the previous day, Li Er had already come to Zhaojiazhuang and waited all night.

Until the next morning, when I saw the cake in front of me, I couldn't help but burst into foul mouth.

"I'll make it, I said Brother Xian, this cake is too big, right?"

Li Er stepped forward and couldn't help but measure it with his hands, this cake was half a person tall, this size, bigger than what they ate that day.

Li Er couldn't help but be stunned as well.

"I said Brother Xian, this cake is too big."

My thoughts at the time were just a little bigger than that day, after all, this thing was fresh.

Seeing today's preparations, I directly stretched out my thumb.

"I said Brother Xian, what you did is too good."
