Having said this, Changle asked someone to bring over the prepared farm tools.
"I came here this time to bring you brand-new farm tools developed by my third brother, including a set of curved plows and a columbine. I know there are not many of these things, but the Tang Dynasty's treasury is not rich now. Last year, there were Countless refugees live near Chang'an City, so this time it is not the treasury that pays, but the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. I know that this subsidy cannot make up for Wang Zhu's sacrifice, but there are many people like him in the world. A hero like Wang Zhu.”
"When our Tang Dynasty becomes more and more powerful, we will definitely be able to give you more subsidies. Here, I would like to apologize to Mr. Wang first." Changle said softly. After speaking, she bowed seriously again.
"Your Highness, you are serious. If Wang Zhuquan knew about it, he would rest in peace." Wang Laozhang said with tears.
The guard at the back brought over a set of curved shaft plows and a brand new columbine cart, and the craftsmen who came with the carts also came over and quickly assembled these.
After assembling the curved shaft plow and the columbine cart, these craftsmen carefully explained to Wang Laozhang and others the use of the columbine cart and the precautions.
After the craftsman finished speaking, Changle spoke softly: "Old Zhang Wang, fellow villagers, my third brother will still sell this columbine to all the people at a fair price later. If you need it, you can go to my third brother to buy it. I believe you all Everyone should know."
"I know." All the people said in unison. This place is not far from Chang'an City. Many people in their village work for His Highness King Qin. Of course they all know the reputation of His Highness King Qin.
"Old Master Wang, there is one last thing." Changle took a deep breath, then waved his hand, and the two guards behind him walked over seriously carrying a wooden plaque.
Four words are engraved on the plaque from right to left: Home of Martyrs. There is also a line of small words below: Issued by the Tang Dynasty Court.
After telling Mr. Wang the words on the plaque, his whole body began to tremble as he touched the words. Changle asked the guards to move the plaque into Wang Zhu's home.
It was originally going to be hung up, but Wang Zhu's father refused to let it be hung outside. He said this was Wang Zhu. Changle could only obey his request silently and put the plaque in his home.
…
Chang'an, Tai Chi Palace.
Li Ke has already arrived in front of the Tai Chi Hall. Li Shimin is also here, with Li Chengqian and Li Tai beside him. In the center of the square in front of the Tai Chi Hall below, the Imperial Forest Army has just erected a 12-meter-high wooden flagpole. Outside the flagpole It was also painted with special paint, the same color as the palace next to it, and on the flagpole, a Tang Dynasty flag was also fluttering in the wind.
Looking at the red national flag, Li Shimin asked abruptly: "How did you come up with these methods? Speaking of which, I suddenly feel that you have some tricks to play with people's hearts."
Li Ke remained calm and pretended not to hear.
"Hey, I'm talking to you." Li Shimin turned around and glanced at Li Ke, who was standing on his right side, and asked.
"Ah? Dad, are you talking to me? I thought you were talking to eldest brother." Li Ke looked confused.
Li Chengqian; "..."
Li Shimin was a little speechless. He glared at Li Ke: "Who am I talking to? You don't have any idea?"
"No, but you are right, Dad. The eldest brother is really clever at playing with people's hearts. During the Chinese New Year, he came to help me supervise the country when he said he had nothing to do. Now I have gone to court three times and I have never seen him even once. Let alone the prisoner, he didn't even come to the court. If today wasn't a special day, I don't think he would have come." Li Ke looked at Li Chengqian with a resentful look.
Li Chengqian: "..."
"I asked you to supervise the country. What does it have to do with your elder brother?" Li Shimin was almost angry to death. Wow, I want you to work here. Look at you. It's not enough to bring Li Tai here. I also want to drag your elder brother. What? of? How about you guys take shifts here too?
"Don't change the topic for me, we are talking about this." Li Shimin reacted and almost let this bastard change the topic. He directly tapped the flagpole in front of him and asked.
"Ah, this, how can this be called playing with people's hearts? I don't have any methods here. Didn't I learn this from the temples in Chang'an City." Li Ke said nonchalantly.
"What do you mean?" Li Shimin asked, glaring at Li Ke.
"Don't those monks often deceive people into believing in some kind of Buddha, saying that the Buddha can bless the people? It can bless them with safety and health. In fact, it is just a means of establishing faith. The same is true for national flags and military flags."
"It's just that these condense the patriotic beliefs of the soldiers. Sometimes, in some special periods, the national flag and the military flag are faith, and faith is a kind of power!" Li Ke raised his head and looked at the flag and said.
Li Shimin and Li Chengqian both nodded thoughtfully. Although the flag had just been raised, they didn't know why, but they had a unique feeling in their hearts. It was really strange. They didn't think it was anything before, but now, It just feels like this flag is different.
On the other hand, Li Tai felt it was nothing, and Li Ke didn't care. This kind of thing can't be formed overnight. It won't take long, one year is enough for everyone to adapt to this thing.
"But why didn't you mention this in court?" Li Shimin looked helplessly and asked Li Ke.
"Why bring it up? Isn't this a trivial matter?" Li Ke shrugged casually.
Li Shimin: "..." You did it on purpose. Is this a trivial matter?
To a certain extent, this seems to be a small matter, and it seems to have nothing to do with the court, but you have already tossed the national flag, and you don’t tell the Ministry of Rites, how will you let the officials of the Ministry of Rites handle themselves?
"Just what you said, what you did, you prepared all your things, and you didn't tell the Ministry of Rites, do you believe that Doulu Kuan bumped into him and died in front of you?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ke helplessly.
"Dad, who do you think is the Duke of Zheng?" Li Ke rolled his eyes, no one would be easily hit and killed in front of the steps.
"Your Majesty." As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, a Royal Forest Army captain from a distance quickly ran over and saluted.
"What's up?"
"Shang Shu Zuo Pu Sheye Wei Guogong Fang Xuanling, Zhong Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng, and Minister of Rites Doulu Kuan asked for an audience." The school captain reported quickly.
"I'm not feeling well. I'm going to Liangyi Hall to rest." Li Shimin turned around and left.
Li Ke: "..."
"Dad, let me help you." Li Chengqian walked over immediately.
Li Ke: "..." Brother, your legs and feet are not as flexible as your father's? Are you helping dad?
Looking at Li Chengqian who was holding Li Shimin's arm and leaving with Li Shimin, Li Ke was completely speechless.
"Your Highness?" The imperial captain below almost lost his ability and could only look at Li Ke who stayed where he was in confusion.
"Let them come in, can I stop them?" Li Ke's face hurt.
What a sin!
