Chu Suiliang smiled and nodded.
Zheng Yuanzhou saw this and couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highness is really terrifying. Not only did he escape from the Turks, he was also able to knock down Yanyun City."
This is more or less horrifying...
Zheng Yuanzhou added in his mind.
at the same time.
I also feel more and more that the old man made the right choice by agreeing to cooperate with the King of Chu.
Their potential, including the potential of King Chu, is really too great...
"Then has he established a firm foothold in Yanyun City?"
Zheng Yuanzhou asked.
If he remembered correctly, the people there quite hated King Chu.
Chu Suiliang smiled and said: "It should be stable. After all, His Highness is not facing the natives of Yanyun City directly, but calls them Yang Kuan."
"The letter said that there are more than 300,000 civilians in Yanyun City. Although all the armed troops have been eliminated, the number is still very large."
"However, His Highness has a lot of troops under his command. The army alone is as many as 20,000, which is enough to suppress the entire Yanyun City with force."
More than 20,000 troops...
Zheng Yuanzhou was slightly stunned.
If he remembers correctly….
When the King of Chu left the Tang Dynasty, he was alone.
Only a few months have passed, and as a result... under the account, or under the account outside the Great Wall, more than 20,000 soldiers have gathered!
From a medium son, he became an emperor with an army of 20,000.
This this….
Zheng Yuanzhou didn't know what to say. He just felt that King Chu... was worthy of being respected as the God of War by the world.
He is worthy of being followed enthusiastically by Jiangdong's troops.
"What about the people? How many Han people belong to him?"
Zheng Yuanzhou asked.
Chu Suiliang thought for a while and replied: "About 40,000."
"When was this news?"
Zheng Yuanzhou asked again.
In today's era, there is a lag in the transmission of information. He wanted to ask more clearly, to get a clearer understanding of the leader of the cooperation group.
"A month ago."
Chu Suiliang thought for a while and then said: "The letter was received by our Wang Zhizuo in the morning. The letter was indeed written a month ago. Now that a month has passed, I think the power will be expanded even more."
It's quite difficult to expand your power in a month.
After all, we are outside the Great Wall.
It's hard for everyone to believe it, including Zheng Yuanzhou.
But this is... that man, that, man...
For the first time, Zheng Yuanzhou felt deeply afraid of someone. He was the next head of the Zheng family in Xingyang. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be like this.
But in his consciousness, he couldn't stop being afraid.
"King Chu, when does he plan to come back?"
Zheng Yuanzhou changed the topic to cover up his fear.
Chu Suiliang smiled and said: "Zheng Dai, the same sentence as the head of the family, the shortest term can be half a year, the long term can be ten years."
Zheng Yuanzhou nodded and didn't dwell on the matter.
At the same time, Chu Suiliang took out a letter from his arms and said with a smile: "Miss Chang'e, His Highness asked us to give this to you."
"Ah?" Zheng Chang'e's little eyes were astonished: "For...give it to me?"
Her little finger pointed at herself, her face full of disbelief.
Chu Suiliang smiled and nodded: "Yes, the letter we Jiangdong sent to Yanyun City has clearly stated your existence and said that you will become the future queen, so..."
Before Chu Suiliang finished speaking, Zheng Chang'e interrupted in horror.
"Wha...what! Did you tell His Highness about my existence?"
"Um."
"Ah? Ahhh! Why why, why!!"
The little girl suddenly blushed and looked panicked.
now.
If someone touched Zheng Chang'e's face with their hands, they would probably get burned.
Zheng Yuanzhou on the side joked: "Why, Chang'e, don't you want to marry the King of Chu?"
"No, daddy, I...I'm not...just...just..." Zheng Chang'e said awkwardly.
Zheng Yuanzhou smiled directly and said: "No? That's it. Sooner or later, the King of Chu will know. It's better to know in advance. Let him have you in his heart and know that he has a queen at home waiting for him to marry, so as to avoid chaos outside. Go ahead, bring back some shady women who won’t please you.”
The Yan Kingdom Emperor "Yang Kuan" was famous not because he usurped the throne. This kind of internal affairs of the foreign royal family could not attract the attention of the people. It was because of a very simple thing that he became popular among the people.
That is, he married Queen Xiao!
Whether in ancient times or modern times, entertainment news is more popular among people or people.
In later generations, just like the replacement of military weapons, national defense, firefighting, etc., not many people pay attention to it. On the contrary, entertainment news emerges in an endless stream and is more attractive.
The beauty of Queen Xiao is well known to everyone.
That Yang Kuangui is a descendant of the Yang family, and he married his grandfather's queen as soon as he took office. Isn't this matter more interesting to talk about and discuss than the so-called usurpation of the throne?
It is precisely because of this that Zheng Yuanzhou also knew that he said something slightly strange.
Chu Suiliang laughed, pretending to be deaf, looked at Zheng Chang'e, and said with a smile: "Miss Chang'e, why don't you open it and take a look?"
He handed over the letter.
Zheng Chang'e's face turned red with embarrassment as she accepted this... unusual letter.
Yes, unusual.
The letter is overall pink, and I don’t know how to make it.
Anyway, Zheng Chang'e looks good.
Holding the letter carefully in her hand, she felt mixed emotions in her heart.
The memory of His Highness is that there was only one meeting, and she was still peeping at him.
others.
It's all just rumors.
His Highness the King of Chu captured Hefei, His Highness the King of Chu rescued so many people, and the King of Chu and the King of Qin joined forces to defeat the enemy.
Many, many.
It can be said that the two have never crossed paths.
If her grandfather hadn't mentioned it at that time, King Chu would have been her first love that she would always hide in her heart, a first love that she had never... had and could only watch from afar.
And this letter….
But it made their two parallel lines that shouldn't intersect completely intersect.
Zheng Chang'e was extremely nervous, pounding and pounding. She could hear it more clearly than ever, as if the only sound in the world was her own heartbeat.
His Highness the King of Chu, what would he... say about me?
She opened the letter carefully with both curiosity and anticipation.
But halfway through, it stopped.
Because she found out that her father was peeping with great interest.
"Damn it! Dad, don't look at it!!"
She was so ashamed.
"Hahaha, okay, don't watch it!"
Zheng Yuanzhou quickly looked away and ate his own food.
Zheng Chang'e was relieved when she saw this.
Then open.
Then he picked up the letter.
【To Chang'e. 】
[Chang'e, I have heard what the left wingers have said about you. If marriage is a necessary condition for the cooperation between you and me, then I, Li Kuan, will naturally have no objection. 】
[I, Jiangdong, need your Zheng family, and I also need your Zheng family, so we will definitely get married. 】
[Of course, Chang'e, don't think that I, Li Kuan, have no feelings for you. The truth is exactly the opposite. I will take every relationship very seriously, such as the fact that you are my wife. When I come back in the future, I will Let you feel the hot emotions from me, which can only be entrusted to my wife, and only my wife can know the emotions. At the same time, I also hope that you can lean into my arms, because in the future, I want to be your safe haven, no One or two days, not a year or two, but a lifetime...]
lifetime….
Zheng Chang'e's little eyes became soft. It turned out that His Highness was really willing to protect her...
In a daze, a picture couldn't help but appear in her eyes.
The rain was pouring and the thunder was deafening.
She was afraid of thunder and huddled in a corner, while he hugged her tenderly and murmured, "Don't be afraid, everything is with him."
Ahhhh!
Zheng Chang'e's face turned even redder when she thought of this.
Girls always have spring in their hearts.
She is no exception.
"Chang'e, what's wrong? Isn't it good to see your face so red? How about dad find a doctor for you? I just happened to be here this time, and dad also brought the best doctor in the family."
As a father, how could Zheng Yuanzhou not know why his daughter was blushing?
The reason why I say it is just to tease.
"No, no need! Dad, I'm fine!"
"real?"
“Really, oh, I’m so angry, I’ll eat your pork!!”
Zheng Chang'e picked up a piece of pork and stuffed it into Zheng Yuanzhou's mouth, trying to stop his chattering mouth.
She hasn't finished reading yet.
I don't want dad to bother me.
Seeing that her father had calmed down, Zheng Chang'e continued to look down.
[Little Chang'e, haha! Is it okay for you to call me that? After all, looking at what they wrote, you are eight years old. 】
Zheng Chang'e pouted and muttered: "Your Highness, my birthday has passed and I am already nine years old."
She continued to look.
[By the way, I can’t say you are eight years old. They gave me your birth date. It is only half a month away from your [birthday]. I don’t know when this letter was sent to Jiangdong, but I think it was after you. birthday. 】
[Forgive me, I can't celebrate your birthday this year, but little Chang'e, I wish you a happy birthday from the bottom of my heart, and I will also give you a birthday gift. 】
Zheng Chang'e saw this, her little eyes were moist, and her little chin was tilted outward: "Your Highness..."
She murmured and cried.
It was tears of joy.
"Chang'e, why are you crying? Did King Chu bully you?"
"Do you want daddy to go and seek justice for you?"
Zheng Yuanzhou asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Zheng Chang'e's melancholy heart was mostly washed away, and she immediately shouted angrily: "Dad! You shut your mouth when you can't speak. It makes me so angry. How could His Highness bully me! It's too late for him to pamper me!"
"Your Highness remembers my birthday. Dad, what about you? Do you remember it?"
"What?" Zheng Yuanzhou was so stunned that he was completely stunned.
Isn't it?
Is this King of Chu so good? Is it possible to remember his daughter's birthday through correspondence or the letter Jiang Dong sent to him, and even express his special congratulations?
After being stunned, he came to his senses and coughed: "Ahem, Dad, isn't Dad too busy? I'll make up for it later, or... today?"
"Ah ah ah, I'm so angry, Dad, get out of here! Stop talking!"
There is no harm without comparison. Zheng Chang'e has never disliked her father more than she did today.
Zheng Yuanzhou smiled coquettishly: "Dad is wrong, dad is wrong."
If he had known that King Chu Xinli would say this, he would not have made fun of his daughter, otherwise he would have been buried.
"Hmph! Dad, I won't pay attention to you!"
Zheng Chang'e got angry and turned her head away from Zheng Yuanzhou. Then she looked at Chu Suiliang expectantly: "Mr. Chu, the gift His Highness gave me, that, that, that, that is..."
She spoke intermittently, her voice getting lower and lower as she spoke.
Chu Sui understood the idea conscientiously and took out a writing brush: "This was sent with the letter. At first I thought His Highness sent it by mistake, or it might have some other use, so I seized it. I didn't expect it to be a birthday gift from Your Highness. Yes. Don’t stop, Miss Chang’e.”
Zheng Chang'e waved her hands quickly: "It's okay, it's okay! Mr. Chu doesn't have to blame himself!"
She comforted Chu Suiliang and then took the brush.
It's a very ordinary writing brush.
I don’t know what the use is.
Zheng Chang'e continued to read the letter.
[The gift is the brush I always use for writing, little Chang'e. It's not that I don't want to give you good things, it's just that... carrier pigeons carry messages, and their weight is really limited. 】
I see.
Zheng Chang'e's little eyes flickered, it turned out that this was what His Highness had been using.
She held the brush, tightly, carefully...
The two people separated by two places seemed to be connected by this brush. She also seemed to have a vision of him writing with this brush. At this moment, she was also holding the brush. She and him seemed to be fighting together...
An ordinary brush, because of its extraordinary significance, is no longer ordinary.
Zheng Chang'e's affairs are precious treasures. This is the first thing His Highness gave to her. She plans to carry it with her in the future and never forget it.
Then.
When His Highness comes back, go find him with your writing brush!
Returning the brush to its original owner also lets him know that he protected the brush very well and did not let the brush suffer.
Zheng Chang'e accepted the brush as if she had found a treasure. To her, this brush was more important than a thousand pieces of gold.
Then, keep reading.
[Little Chang'e, they also said in their letter that you always feel strange. In fact, it is true that Jiangdong is not a home you know well, but it will be in the future. It is your home and my home. It is... you and me. The home of two people. 】
[So, have fun and show your true nature! Just like in Kaifeng City, it is your home and will never blame you for your mischief! 】
When Zheng Chang'e saw this, her eyes were moist: "Your Highness..."
Something seemed to be touched in her heart, touched by His Highness's words.
Rubbing tears, continue reading.
[Little Chang'e, this is our first contact. Let's talk about this for now. In the future, when I come back, I will take you to see different scenery. Only you and me can see the scenery in the world...]
The letter stops here.
Zheng Chang'e didn't give up, she still wanted to see His Highness write the words, and tried hard to find the following, trying to see what His Highness said to her, but it really came to the end.
She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
It would be great if His Highness could say more, even in front of his eyes...
Zheng Chang'e's small eyes flickered: "Your Highness, are you waiting for your return? I will wait, no matter how long it takes."
The small eyes were full of determination.
"What, have you finished reading?"
Zheng Yuanzhou asked.
Looking at her father in front of her, Zheng Chang'e was actually looking forward to it before he came. After all, she hadn't seen anyone in her hometown for a long time.
But now, she dislikes him very much.
"Yes, Dad! I'm done watching it!"
Although he was disgusted, he still responded quickly.
"Haha, let's eat then, keep eating!"
"good!"
Zheng Chang'e nodded, but did not move her chopsticks. Instead, she looked at Chu Suiliang: "Mr. Chu, can I write a letter to His Highness? I... miss him."
The second half of the words was extremely shy.
Chu Suiliang smiled and said: "Of course! After all, you are His Highness's unmarried wife, and even my future queen in Jiangdong. There is no one in the entire Jiangdong who is more qualified than you to send letters to His Highness."
The voice is high.
Zheng Yuanzhou paused while eating, then smiled before continuing to eat.
Zheng Chang'e, on the other hand, looked forward to it: "Okay! Thank you Mr. Chu, I will write to His Highness after dinner!"
"Oh, oh, oh, I have so many grievances that I want to tell His Highness. Hmm, I want to finish them all in the letter!"
Zheng Chang'e already regarded King Chu as one of her own, and had nothing to hide... one of her own.
Chu Suiliang smiled and agreed.
Then a group of people continued to eat. When they were almost done eating, Zheng Yuanzhou said, "Okay, Mr. Chu, it's time for me to return to Kaifeng."
Chu Suiliang was stunned: "So fast? Don't you want to stay longer?"
Zheng Chang'e also looked surprised: "Dad, are you going back so soon?"
Although she said she disliked her father, she still wanted him to stay.
After all, she hasn't seen her relatives for a long time.
"Hahaha, no need. I have learned almost everything I need to know. Moreover, the King of Chu has occupied Yanyun City and divided the country into one side. This is really shocking. I have to go back and tell the old man about this in person."
"Speaking of which, Chang'e, how about you, do you want to go back with dad for a while? I see you are living in dire straits in Jiangdong."
Zheng Yuanzhou looked at Zheng Chang'e.
Zheng Chang'e pouted and said, "That was before, now I want to stay in Jiangdong."
"Oh? Why?"
"because…."
Zheng Chang'e held the brush in both hands and stared straight into the distance with her small eyes: "Because, I want to wait for His Highness to come back, and His Highness has said that this is also my home."
Zheng Yuanzhou's eyes flickered, and then he laughed loudly: "Hahaha, okay! Then dad will go back by himself!!"
"Let's go. Chang'e, remember to take care of yourself. Mr. Chu, don't send me off either."
After a few casual greetings, Zheng Yuanzhou left with a dozen people. These were all he brought from Kaifeng, and they should leave together now.
We drove all the way to the pier.
Many family guards got on the boat. Seeing that Zheng Yuanzhou was still there, one of them shouted: "On behalf of the family master, it's time for us to leave."
Zheng Yuanzhou was still looking at Jiang Dong. Hearing this sound, he came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Okay!"
He walked into the boat, and then continued to look at Jiangdong. His eyes were as sharp as arrows, as if piercing through space and distance. He saw the king's left wing far away, and said with a smile: "Jiangdong, it's really interesting."
"King's left wing, I hope you can lead them to block Admiral Tiance's attack and wait for... that man to come back..."
….….….….….….
the other side.
After the green mule returned Zheng Chang'e to her residence, she walked outside Jian'an City.
He walked alone, walked slowly, walked quietly...
It has nothing to do with the chaotic flow of people and voices on the road.
It wasn't until he left Jian'an City that the noise in his ears gradually stopped.
After arriving in a certain forest, everything around him completely returned to peace.
Only the innate sound of nature remains.
But in the next moment.
The grass surged around him, and then a dozen people in green robes walked out.
These dozen or so men in green robes are all disciples of the Green Mule.
The seven-colored Taoists walking around the world can be said to have countless disciples.
now.
Everyone raised their hands and shouted: "Master!"
Green Mule nodded: "Tell me, what's the matter? I asked Master to come here specially, but I can't say it in the letter yet."
They were the ones who called the Green Mule over, by letter.
A man in green robe looked around to make sure there was no one around, so he came closer and said, "Master, we caught the guy from Chang'an City, so I called you here."
Green Mule's eyes narrowed slightly: "Chang'an City? Are you sure?"
This is a bit unexpected.
If it is the guy who captured Chang'an City now, then the person who was captured set out from Chang'an City at least a month ago, or even two months ago.
Admiral Tiance, did you start thinking about Jiangdong so early?
His face was solemn.
"Master, sure."
"There are six people in total. The other five are dead and one is captured. I will have someone bring them to you!"
After the man finished speaking, he waved his hand, and immediately other men in green robes came over carrying sacks.
When he came to the green mule, he opened the sack in front of him, and in an instant a man tied up with five flowers appeared in front of him.
"Remove the cloth covering his mouth."
Green Mule ordered.
"yes!"
Taking the cloth away, the man's fierce eyes became wanton: "Jiangdong? You are still guarding that King of Chu, he is dead! Why not surrender to Your Majesty?"
"You cannot stop His Majesty's majesty! You need to know that those who understand current affairs are heroes!"
After experiencing multiple criminal laws, his identity has been exposed, so he speaks out when he opens his mouth.
Green Mule laughed: "So, Admiral Tiance sent you here?"
The man also smiled, with a hint of glory: "No, my master is the eldest grandson Pushe, the eldest grandson Wuji!"
Changsun Wuji!
Upon hearing the name, Green Mule's eyes became fierce, but he soon returned to normal.
He came to the man and said with a smile: "Then your master, do you know why we don't surrender? After all, His Royal Highness King Chu has been away for a long time, and no matter how deep your faith is, you have to succumb to reality, but we haven't, and we are still here. Jiangdong acts in the name of the King of Chu and as a person of the King of Chu?"
"Does your master know why this is?"
The man shook his head.
This was also one of the investigative purposes of his trip.
"Then let me tell you."
Green Mule lowered his body and came close to the man's ear: "Because, my Highness is still alive."
The man's eyes widened instantly!
He wanted to speak, but his mouth was tightly covered by the Green Mule.
"Moreover, His Highness also captured Yanyun City."
"Yes, that's right, he became the leader of the Yan Kingdom."
That man's eyes widened to the extreme!
But he still couldn't speak, and even a trace of blood flowed from the green mule's hand covering his mouth.
This... turns out!
The green mule said as he stabbed the dagger into the man's heart with his free hand.
The man struggled for a few seconds, and then... there was no more sound.
The instigator, Green Mule, seemed not to have seen this scene, and said with fanatical eyes: "Why are you still following him? Because he can bring us hope!!"
"Continue to change Jiangdong, or even change the hope of the entire Tang Dynasty!!"
He opened his hands and his eyes were full of heat as if welcoming a god.
No.
Maybe, that man….
He is a god in Jiangdong...
From today on, or earlier, the secret confrontation between Datang and Jiangdong, intelligence and detailed operations, etc., have officially begun...
….….….….….….
Chang'an City.
Spring plowing has finally arrived, and all kinds of grain seeds have been completely distributed.
but!
The problem mentioned by Fang Xuanling before suddenly became apparent.
There are too few cattle.
Not enough, not enough, not enough!
For a time, the cattle around Chang'an were unable to be mobilized.
This made the people who had received the grain seeds extremely anxious.
Jingzhao Mansion was also extremely angry.
However, the number of cattle was too small to be divided among them.
In the end, I could only report this matter.
At this time, Fang Xuanling summoned all the craftsmen from the Ministry of Works and finally made a batch of curved shaft plows.
After all, the structure of the curved shaft plow is not complicated.
Besides, at this time in the Tang Dynasty, craftsmen implemented a government-run craftsmanship system. To put it simply, the government maintained a large number of craftsmen to serve themselves.
Working day and night.
Fang Xuanling lived directly at the craftsman's house and accompanied him day and night to supervise.
The results are quite good.
In three days, a large number of Quyuanli were placed in front of Li Shimin.
However, Cheng Yaojin, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji were all looking at the strange-looking curved shaft plow in front of them, and they were a little confused.
Can such a strange plow make up for the lack of oxen?
impossible.
Especially Cheng Yaojin. He felt that these plows would break with a little force, so how could they still be used to plow the ground?
"Your Majesty, there are a total of 20,000 households near Chang'an receiving grain seeds."
“Currently, there are only about 5,000 households that can plant it.”
"Most people's crop fields have not been plowed yet. This is still Chang'an, but in Youzhou and other states and counties, I'm afraid... it will be even more severe."
Cheng Yaojin frowned, sighed and continued: "Your Majesty, I, Old Cheng, know that you are impatient."
"But... no matter how anxious we are, we can't fool the people of the world with such things."
"Look at the long straight plows we have in the Tang Dynasty. They are so strong that even two people can't lift them. It's fun to use them like that!"
"This... so-called curved shaft plow, can it plow the ground?"
Cheng Yaojin's face was full of disgust.
In his impression, big is good and strong!
"Yes, Your Majesty, this...can this plow replace the oxen?"
Changsun Wuji was beside him, with disbelief written all over his face.
Not only him, but also Du Ruhui couldn't see through it.
What's the use of this thing?
So small.
Can it turn over the ground?
They were really extremely suspicious.
Li Shimin looked at them with disbelief.
To be honest, if it weren't for the annotation and explanation from Chuhe Village and Fang Xuanling's trial, he really wouldn't believe it at first.
However, after witnessing it with his own eyes and even trying Quyuanli himself, Li Shimin now certainly believes in it.
However... those few good curved-column plows are still the ones left in Chuhe Village after all. Whether the ones made by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce will be useful is yet to be determined.
On the other side, Queen Changsun stood nearby, listening to their words, she was also a little dumbfounded.
After all, she didn't take Qu Yuuli seriously at first. If it weren't for Fang Xuanling, she would have thrown the scroll and drawing aside.
"It's a mule or a horse, it's gold, just pull it out and give it a try."
"It just so happens that there is an open space behind the imperial city. I want to plant some peonies next year. Today is a good time to experiment."
Li Shimin laughed and was a little impatient.
He also wanted to see the results of his own Ministry of Industry tools quickly.
"Yes, yes! You have to see with your own eyes how effective it is!"
Fang Xuanling nodded in agreement with two big dark circles under her eyes.
After leaving Chuhe Village, he just gave birth. Fang Xuanling really didn't know what the effect would be.
For now, there are no actual tests.
"Walk!"
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but pick up four plows and walked towards the back of the imperial city.
He is anxious.
Food seeds have been distributed.
But the people are helpless in the face of the current land. Who can see it and who can't be anxious?
Empress Li Shimin's eldest grandson led everyone and went straight to the backyard of the imperial city.
A piece of wasteland that had been prepared for a long time was right next to the imperial city wall.
It's not big, only about half an acre.
It's enough for people to test.
The two oxen were led by two Jinwu guards and were already in place.
Next to it, there is a long straight plow placed there.
"Give it a try."
"Yao Jin, you put down the curved shaft plow first, and try the long straight plow first."
Li Shimin smiled.
"okay."
"Your Majesty, let me tell you, I, Old Cheng, am a good plower. When I was young, I helped plow the fields of the folks in the village."
"Come on, Xuanling, auxiliary engine, you two follow me and help me."
Cheng Yaojin immediately started greeting him.
He rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the Chang Zhi Plow. However, even with his strength, he could only make the Chang Zhi Plow move.
"Grandma's! Our long straight plow is more comfortable to touch! Only with this thick feeling can the cultivated land be plowed thoroughly and well!"
Cheng Yaojin shouted.
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji walked over.
The two of them also directly took off their outer robes, rolled up their sleeves, and the three of them joined hands. After struggling for a long time, they put the long straight plow on the two oxen.
"Huh... As long as we put this long straight plow on it, the rest will be easy."
Cheng Yaojin wiped his face carelessly and continued to distribute: "Xuanling, you drive the cows and control the pace of the two cows in the front, while the auxiliary machine and I hold the long straight plow in the back!"
Two cows and three husbands, this is the most common combination.
After all, if you want to plow the land well, you have to make the two cows walk at the same pace. If one is faster and the other is slower, the land cannot be plowed.
The long straight plow must also be controlled well, otherwise it will not be able to penetrate completely into the ground, and you will only be able to plow the surface layer, and your efforts will be in vain!
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji responded at the same time.
The three of them started operating and moved forward.
Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, and Du Ruhui were watching from the side.
The cattle are moving.
But in an instant, something went wrong.
After all, Fang Xuanling was a literati and rarely had contact with farmland. He could not get together with this cow no matter what.
And even if they rush together, the land is not plowed so neatly.
Because Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin have different strengths, the distance they can push the plow into the cultivated land is also different.
Potholes.
Extremely ugly.
After finally reaching the end, I tried to turn a corner, but it took me a long time.
After all the hard work, it was already getting late, but the land had only been plowed a little.
All three people's clothes were soaked through.
"It won't work, it won't work." Changsun Wuji waved his hand and sat down on the ground, his lips turning white.
"This cow is too disobedient. If you let it go, it won't go. Let's walk together. It feels fast. This speed is too difficult to control."
Fang Xuanling slapped the cow's butt hatefully.
Cheng Yaojin looked at the somewhat messy land and scratched his head.
"Your Majesty, the main reason is that Xuan Ling and the auxiliary machine are not familiar with farmland, otherwise, there will definitely be no problem!"
Cheng Yaojin was a little dissatisfied.
He was also dissatisfied with his operation.
The hand is still raw.
I haven't been to the ground in person for so many years, so it feels a bit strange.
Li Shimin pursed his lips, looked at Qu Yuuli, and said with a smile, "Then give our Qu Yuuli a try."
"Yaojin, you better come and feel the difference."
The long straight plow is really inconvenient.
Just now, Li Shimin felt uncomfortable watching the three people's operations.
It is really inconvenient for ordinary people to use such farming tools.
This curved-column plow... I hope the drawings are not missing anything or are correct, and can have the same effect as the several curved-column plows in Chuhe Village.
At this moment, Admiral Tiance was unsure.
Empress Changsun was by the side, and her eyes also turned to Qu Yuuli.
Chang Zhili's performance really made her feel a little unfair for the people.
This long straight plow is so difficult to use!
Two oxen and three people were unable to conquer the long straight plow, not to mention that Cheng Yaojin was extremely powerful and was quite familiar with farming.
But in the end, the land was still cultivated like this.
If it were ordinary people, it would probably be even more difficult.
Not to mention, some people have only one person in their family, and even some are lonely old people or orphans and widowed girls due to various reasons.
They are also common people of the Tang Dynasty.
But how should they cultivate the land?
Undoubtedly, they can only turn to the villagers in the same village for help, but this will increase the burden on them to various extents.
Even the freedom to cultivate land is not allowed, let alone the reclamation of wasteland.
Queen Changsun's eyes were full of hope.
This Quyuanli... I hope it can bring surprises to the world!
In front, Cheng Yaojin had already picked up a curved shaft plow.
But this time, he didn't let anyone help him and easily hooked the plow to the cow alone.
This curved shaft plow is really much lighter than the long straight plow.
Moreover, all it takes is one cow.
Cheng Yaojin prepared his posture, picked up the bullwhip and gently swung it at the cow's butt.
The cattle are moving.
"Moo..."
The plow cow let out a light, gentle cry.
Four hooves forward.
Cheng Yaojin was holding the handle of the Quyuan plow from behind.
He moved easily.
It was so light, Cheng Yaojin felt that the effect was definitely not very good!
But when he turned around and looked at the plowed land behind him, his eyes almost popped out of his head.
Consistent shades.
The ravine is straight.
I don’t know how much better it is than the long straight plow next to it!
Moreover, the speed was even more amazing, and he reached the end before he knew it.
When adjusting the direction, it was even easier. Cheng Yaojin just lifted the curved shaft plow, turned it around, and put it down again.
This time, Cheng Yaojin even sped up.
But the speed increased, and the plowed land behind was still exactly the same.
It looks like two parallel lines, countless times stronger than the straight plowed land just now!
The two lines just now are crooked, darker here and shallower there. It's so ugly.
But these two lines of business are as if they were cultivated by gods.
Very neat.
The same depth.
The soil is turned.
It’s fun to watch!
"this!!"
When Cheng Yaojin stopped and turned around to look over, he was shocked.
Is this the land you cultivated with your own hands?
Incredible!
He had never seen land so well cultivated!
Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling stared at the two rows of cultivated land carefully.
Li Shimin also squatted down and grasped the plowed soil with his hands.
loose.
Perfect.
There is more than one beauty can tell.
If this kind of land were placed normally, even an experienced farmer who had been farming it for fifty years would not be able to cultivate it like this.
"This! Hahaha, Your Majesty, the light of farm tools! The light of farm tools! This is really the light of my Tang Dynasty's farm tools!"
Cheng Yaojin laughed.
He was really frightened.
At this moment, Empress Changsun also came to an end. She asked Cheng Yaojin to get out of the way and supported Qu Yuuli herself.
Drive cattle.
A beautiful farmland route appeared again.
It took a very short time to go back and forth, and Queen Changsun didn't feel tired at all.
Looking at the cultivated land, it is exactly the same as Cheng Yaojin's.
"The Queen has never plowed the land herself, but the land plowed by the curved shaft plow is better than that of the common people who have been plowing the land for decades!"
"This... this Qu Yuanli is really a god, really a god!"
Changsun Wuji was really shocked.
Undoubtedly, this scene is more shocking.
After all, Cheng Yaojin had worked in the fields, but Queen Changsun had not!
"I can't believe it. If you say that, wouldn't it mean that no matter who you are in the world, as long as you have a plow, you can farm? One ox and one man can do it, and it's so convenient!"
"The speed is much faster than a long straight plow."
Du Ruhui was also shocked.
"Who says it's not the case? If this happens, I don't know how many people will be liberated! Datang's farmland will also usher in explosive growth!!!"
Fang Xuanling blurted out.
He touched the shaft of the curved shaft plow and was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
For the past three days, he really didn't dare to close his eyes at all. Such a result made his heart almost jump out of his chest.
fear!
horrible!
I never expected that the effect of Quyuanli would be so explosive!
"Your Majesty, this curved shaft plow is really the pinnacle of agricultural tools!" Empress Changsun swallowed and said excitedly: "The people have it...for farming. I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, don't worry about having no food to eat. ah!"
Fang Xuanling was extremely excited.
Everyone was excited.
I couldn't help but be happy.
But at this moment, suddenly, something in Cheng Yaojin's mind moved.
"Queen, hold up the plow!"
Cheng Yaojin shouted and untied the plow from the ox.
He put the rope on his shoulders, grunted, lowered his head and rushed forward.
Empress Changsun clutched the Qu Yuan Li, wondering what Cheng Yaojin was going to do.
But after taking a few steps, Queen Changsun suddenly reacted.
Even if Cheng Yaojin replaced the oxen, the land plowed would not be worse than if the oxen were used.
The mud is still flying.
Still incredibly beautiful.
Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others recognized each other and hurriedly chased after them.
Just now, Cheng Yaojin rushed up to them. They were really at a loss, but now, they all understood what Cheng Yaojin wanted to verify!
No need for cattle!
He was testing whether the curved shaft plow could be used without the need for plowing oxen.
Answer.
That's for sure!
Cheng Yaojin pulled the Quyuan plow all the way to the end.
He stopped and looked at the traces of cultivated land behind him, tears welling up in his eyes.
I remember when I was a child, my family was poor, so I begged my grandma and grandpa to borrow a farm cow.
Compared to one cow and one man, the efficiency is increased by four to five times.
Cheng Yaojin knew that this situation was the most coveted effect for the people!
Even though his shoulders were burning now.
But...he knows exactly what this means!
No need for plowing oxen, no more plowing oxen!
Although the shoulder hurts, for the poor people, this pain is nothing compared to asking someone to borrow a cow in a low voice!
I no longer have to look at other people’s faces, and finally I don’t have to plow the fields in the middle of the night.
Because there are so many people waiting to use a plowing cow. If it is your turn during the day, it is good, but if it is your turn at night, you have no choice. Even if you work in the dark, you still have to grit your teeth and plow the land.
Otherwise, if you miss it, you won’t know when the cattle will be available.
And if the spring planting is delayed, the consequences will be disastrous!
But if there is Quyuanli, it will be different!
Cheng Yaojin stared at Qu Yuuli and swallowed hard.
"Your Majesty! This Quyuanli will save many people."
"It's a divine thing, it's really a divine thing!"
Cheng Yaojin was a little crazy.
How could Li Shimin not know what Cheng Yaojin said.
When the plow comes out, the people will usher in endless changes.
Those idle lands will finally have the opportunity to be reclaimed.
Plow cattle!
This tool that has been passed down for thousands of years has helped the people a lot, but from another perspective, in fact, it has restricted the people of the Tang Dynasty to a certain extent!
Without a cattle, you can't cultivate land.
The key is the preciousness of cattle cultivation, and it is definitely not affordable for ordinary people.
In this way, the perfection of the people cannot be fully played.
but now!
This song plow in Chuhe Village, the light of this agricultural tool, can be said to have solved this problem very well.
It is undeniable that Qu Yi plow is extremely easy to be cultivated with cattle. If it is used by people, it is still very difficult.
Looking at Cheng Bingjin, the martyr who moved the world had only a trip, and a layer of skin was grinded on his shoulders.
but!
This beginning can be said to be epoch -making!
"His Majesty, hurry up!"
"Yeah, His Majesty, with Quyi plow, sweet potato, you can solve it casually."
"Spring plow next year, don't worry."
"Even the people's use of the power of Quya plow will make my wasteland grow out of the crops!"
Everyone was excited.
"Go! Go now! Xuan Ling, go and post these song plows!"
"Farmers who planted grains near Chang'an City will temporarily 20 households per thousand households in accordance with a certain proportion!"
Li Shimin took a deep breath and directly instructed: "At the same time, let the Ministry of Industry distribute the design drawings of Quyi Pie to the following. At the same time, the design drawings of Qu Yizi are publicly disclosed! Every people know what is going on! Each craftsman Shop, you must do this kind of curved plow! "
"This year's spring plowing, Twai plow, bloom everywhere!"
"Chen, lead the purpose!" Fang Xuanling drank low.
The effect of Quji plow has been verified and promoted, and it must be promoted!
After he left, Cheng Bingjin couldn't help asking: "His Majesty, how did this song plow come? Why never seen it before!"
Li Shimin froze slightly, and thoughtfully thought about it, and then said with a smile: "It was invented by the Ministry of Industry."
Cheng Bingjin didn't think too much, and suddenly realized: "So that, the bad old man in the Ministry of Industry did not expect sometimes reliable! Hahaha, he could invented such fascinities!"
Changsun Wuji echoed: "That's natural, but the Ministry of Industry has gathered countless clever craftsmen in Datang, and invented the district Quji Pie. It has a difficulty."
Everyone agreed with this, while Li Shimin couldn't listen to it anymore, and quickly dismissed everyone, but he left Cheng Bingjin.
Seeing that everyone left, he said Xu Xu said: "Bite gold, do you want to go to the battlefield?"
Cheng Bing Jin Niu's eyes widened: "Go to the battlefield? Really false?"
Li Shimin laughed: "Yes, it is true than Zhenjin. I want you to bring you the army, and it is my Datang Ace Army.
"The new leader of Yan Kingdom is arrogant, thinking that Turkic can go under our house, and they can also plunder the people of the Great Tang border in winter."
"My Tang Dynasty Huanghuang Tianwei, not who can bully the previous side! Therefore, I want you to bring you a army and let Yan Guo know that Turkic can bully us. He has a small new country, without this ability! !”
"Moreover, Turks bully us because I have not established a foothold yet, Turk, just temporarily ... bullying us!"
"This hatred, I will report it in Datang !!"
"But the most important thing now is to let Yan Guo know that Datang, not a small country can bully!"
During this time, Li Shimin did his homework during this time.
Yan Kingdom was divided into Liang Guo, one country, two systems.
Although I do n’t know what happened, the full version of Liang Guo is not the opponent of Datang, and even attacked the Datang and repeatedly defeated, like a flies, weaker enough to be weak.
And now they are scattered by their national strength?
