"What happened outside recently?" Li Shimin asked his eldest grandson casually while teasing the child with his fingers.
These days, he is almost fully devoted to the upcoming war! He pays little attention to everything outside, so the source of outside information is mostly obtained through his eldest grandson.
The eldest grandson sat aside, looking tenderly at the close relationship between the father and son, and said softly: "Nothing major happened. Everything in the court is stable. Your Majesty is allocating the money and food you need. Oh, by the way! The South has been busy because of the situation a few days ago. Due to Xiao Xian's sudden death, some rebellions have occurred one after another, and General Li Jing should start to leave."
"Xiao Mian is dead?" Hearing his eldest grandson say this, Li Shimin's fingers teasing his son suddenly paused, but soon returned to normal.
Although this happened suddenly, it was not unexpected!
Xiao Mian is so popular in the south that he is almost as popular as Dou Jiande in Hebei! Moreover, when Datang surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, it was for the sake of ruling the people of Li that they offered the city to surrender!
If such a person were left alive in the world, he would always be a source of unrest for Li Yuan and Datang, so it would not be surprising if he died.
"Forget it, let's not mention this. Where is Xiao Han, what has he been doing recently?" Li Shimin didn't want to discuss these intrigues in front of his son, even if the son was too young to understand! It’s okay to talk about Xiao Han! Because when it comes to him, there is nothing depressing!
"He..." Sure enough, after hearing what her husband said, the eldest grandson immediately covered his mouth and chuckled, saying: "I heard that he was kicked by Master Hua recently and was working in the fields. It seems that Master Hua gave him a scratch. He has to cultivate ten acres of land independently."
"What? Let Xiao Han work in the fields?" Li Shimin looked at his eldest grandson in surprise when he heard this, and said with a strange expression: "Are you sure he can go to the fields? With that lazy temperament? Let him go to the fields and not kill him. Same as him?"
"Of course!" Zhangsun said to Li Shimin with a smile on his face: "He is lazy, but Master Hua really doesn't tolerate him. Now he has to go to the ground at dawn every day and not come back until dusk!"
"Oh? He doesn't have any objection?" Li Shimin couldn't help but ask with a wide grin, thinking of Xiao Han's face facing the loess and his back to the sky.
"Don't be too patronizing, be careful with the kids!"
Zhang Sunbai only glanced at the grinning Li Shimin and saw him hugging the child again, and then continued: "I have an opinion! How could I not have an opinion? And according to others, Xiao Han's resentment was really quite big! Two days ago, , and even threw all the dandies who went to his place into the water. He dared to throw people into the water on such a cold day. These dandies became seriously ill after returning home and couldn't get out of bed for several days! "
"Oh? Is there anything else?"
When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately became interested. He stood up and walked around with his son in his arms. He thought about it and said, "However, I think you are wrong! Xiao Han is a person who values friendship very much. It is absolutely impossible for him to treat his master like this." What’s the point of resentment? There must be other things we don’t know about that are mixed in! By the way, those dudes didn’t bother him again?”
The eldest grandson smiled and nodded, as if agreeing with his husband's idea, and then replied: "I've looked for it, can I not look for it?! But this Xiao Han is so bad that he gave them a false name! Li Jing My brother's name was reported to them! So these dandy family members who came to argue were then punished by Li Jing."
"a ha ha ha……"
After hearing this result, Li Shimin was stunned and couldn't help but laugh loudly!
He could imagine what Li Jing, who had never smiled, would do after someone blocked the door and accused him!
Do you expect this black-faced person to be kind? Next life!
"Interesting, interesting! Anyway, no matter what he has in mind, the most important thing now is the tough battle in front of him! I will write to him right now and ask him to get out of the ground and get to work quickly! It seems that the next one to go out is , it’s us!”
The eldest grandson smiled sweetly and walked up to the desk to write ink for her husband. After Li Shimin played with Cheng Qian for a while, he handed him over to the eldest grandson who finished the ink and wrote on the paper himself.
Chang'an is very close to Sanyuan, and the letter Li Shimin wrote at noon was delivered to Xiao Han in the afternoon.
At this time, Xiao Han had just plowed the last piece of land. Looking at the dark and neat land in front of him, a sense of pride still arose.
People, when they are not working, they always feel that working is such a difficult task!
But when he really puts aside his thoughts and puts his head down to do it! And often enjoy it.
Maybe this is the legendary masochism.
Watching the bullocks coming out of the field, Xiao Han sat down on the path at the end of the field, filling a teapot with water while taking Li Shimin's letter from the messenger and opening it.
However, Xiao Han only took a quick glance, and his eyes immediately bulged, and the tea in his mouth spurted out!
"Pfft... there are a million arrows, ten thousand armors, more than a thousand crossbows, and countless weapons?" Xiao Han asked, coughing.
"Well! King Qin also said that it is best to deliver it as soon as possible..." The messenger who came to deliver the letter didn't even know how he said this! Anyway, after he finished speaking, his head almost dropped to the ground!
What a bully! Considering the number of items in the letter, it would be good if it could be completed within three to five years! Now, Xiao Hou was allowed to do this in just a few months. Could it be that his master's head was broken?
The messenger is not the only one who thinks the same way!
Xiao Han read the letter again, and after confirming that he had read it correctly, he immediately slammed the letter to the ground! Then he looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's over, this bastard must have been kicked in the head by a donkey! A million arrows? Ten thousand armors, and more than a thousand crossbows? Why doesn't he imitate Zhuge Liang? This is just a straw boat!"
No one could answer Xiao Han. Even the messenger had no reaction when he heard him scolding his master in person!
If it were him, he would definitely scold him even more harshly than Xiao Han!
The white clouds in the sky floated leisurely. Xiao Han, who received no response, slowly lowered his head, glanced at the messenger who was about to put his head into his crotch, and waved his hands feebly: "You go back first, I want to be quiet..."
"Master Hou, my subordinates resign!"
The messenger, who had been bowing his head like an ostrich, felt as if he had been granted amnesty upon hearing this, and immediately backed away, leaving Xiao Han alone to sigh.
The flow of the small river in front of Xiao Han was gentle, and a few small fish swam under the clear water from time to time.
If you follow this creek to the north, you will reach Xiao Han's blacksmith workshop.
There, as the glaciers thawed, the giant water hammer began to operate again after a winter's rest.
Roughly smelted steel becomes even finer after being struck by water hammer. It is precisely because of this that the various ironware produced by Xiaojiazhuangzi are hard to find on the market.
