Scholars unparalleled

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems to be the scholar.

Otherwise, how did this sword-wielding scholar get his name?

If this scholar didn't have any bloody means, how could he have such a reputation.

"Foreigners, I'm afraid they don't know how to cultivate land, they only know how to shepherd sheep."

Du Rufang endured it, and then choked out a sentence.

"They are not the only people from other races. Your vision is too narrow."

Lu Chensheng thought of modern history, what happened at that time.

The cruelty of the war, all kinds of massacres, even after the rise, oppression and plunder by the great powers are not rare.

All kinds of things are hard to describe.

Du Rufang thought of it, it was just a tartar outside.

But what Lu Chensheng was thinking about was the other races that hadn't been discovered yet.

I don't know how far these people have developed now, but they must not be allowed to be at the forefront.

Once they occupy the frontier and then discover this place, it is not impossible for the triangular trade to happen again.

"There are other foreign races? Brother Lu, you mean the countries of the Western Regions?"

"The world is still big. Brother Du is alive and well. I think he will have a chance to see it."

These words were somewhat ambiguous, as if Du Rufang would not live long.

Du Rufang knew that Lu Chensheng had no such intentions, and he didn't mind what he said.

It's just that I still feel a little confused about what Lu Chensheng said.

During this conversation with Lu Chensheng, he suddenly felt that his knowledge and vision could not keep up.

On the other hand, Liu Wensheng on the side, after reading some of Lu Chensheng's books, could barely keep up with what Lu Chensheng said, and now he understood it.

"You, if you don't understand what he said, just stay behind and follow those students, and you will understand after listening more."

Liu Wensheng said something to Du Rufang who was on the side.

Lu Chensheng doesn't teach much anymore, he is busy with too many things every day.

But those students will teach this knowledge.

If Du Rufang had listened more, he would have figured it out.

"Okay, then I will take the liberty of interrupting you."

Du Rufang is different from Liu Wensheng. Although he is arrogant, he is willing to ask questions without shame.

If these students learned more knowledge than he had learned, he would naturally be willing to listen.

Liu Wensheng didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward, and was slightly taken aback for a moment.

After regaining consciousness, he raised his wine glass to drink with the other party, with a smile on his face.

This guy, go learn from those students, don't just be stunned.

It goes up to the sky, down to the geographical environment, climate change, and knowledge about the distribution and functions of various plants in the middle.

When he saw these things at that time, he was stunned.

I don't know what this extremely famous talented person will look like after he goes there. It really makes people look forward to it.

In the inner courtyard, Qiongyue and the girls had almost eaten, and they could clearly hear the words outside the room.

They shook their heads as they looked at each other.

Every time my husband talked about this topic, he always looked like a bloody enemy, and they didn't know where the hatred came from.

When asked, Lu Chensheng didn't say anything, but just asked them to see the men and women captured by the Tartars, and they would know what happened to them.

They may not know the rest, but they are very clear about the fate of the captured men and women.

These men are not even as good as animals, and it is considered light to beat and scold at every turn, and the fate of women is even more miserable.

Sometimes they will be thrown out on purpose to let them fight wild wolves with bare hands, such animal behaviors abound.

"My husband's words are actually not good for this scholar. If the scholar speaks out..."

Qiongyue Liu frowned, subconsciously touched her stomach, with a bit of worry on her face.

"Since Xianggong did this, there must be a reason for Xianggong."

Bai Yi heard the words from the side, and responded.

But I still couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, maybe my husband had drunk too much?

Talking about this matter with Liu Wensheng naturally has no problem, but talking about it with Du Rufang, the idea of ​​whether the feeling will be revealed just popped up.

But after thinking about it, my husband doesn't think he's such an inconsiderate person.

Chapter 286 The Palace

As the days passed, houses in the valley began to rise one by one.

In a blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival came quietly.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Lu Chensheng gave everyone a holiday, so that everyone could reunite with their families and eat a meal of rice dumplings.

Qiongyue's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and her movements are already somewhat inconvenient.

Lu Chensheng sent someone to inquire. There are three experienced midwives in the city, who have been taken to live next door.

Once Qiongyue showed signs of giving birth, the midwife could take over directly.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, every household has already started to make zongzi.

To be honest, Lu Chensheng didn't miss Zongzi much.

But on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, some zongzi still had to be made out, Lu Chensheng didn't eat it, but Xiaoyu and the others still wanted to eat it.

"Whatever flavor you want to eat, you can put some sugar in it, and you can also use salt."

Lu Chensheng was sitting at the side reading a book, seeing Xiaoyu and the others wrapping zongzi, feeling a little bit too busy, so he just said something.

Xiaoyu and the others were slightly taken aback when they heard the words, can the zongzi still be made like this?

The zongzi they ate before were just zongzi.

But they wouldn't have the slightest doubt that their young master was making food, so they immediately started to make it after hearing the words.

"Make a mark when wrapping, some people like sweet ones, some people like salty ones."

Lu Chensheng spoke at the side and said again.

Xiaoyu and the others nodded immediately after hearing the words, "I like sweet ones, and I want to eat sweet rice dumplings later."

"I want to try the salty one!"

Chu Wu also said something on the side.

Lu Chensheng shook his head straight after listening, "This taste is different from what you usually eat. The taste you like to eat now may be different if you replace it with zongzi."

The food is different, and when diners choose the taste, it will also change accordingly.

The two decided what flavor to eat right now, and in Lu Chensheng's opinion, they might be slapped in the face later.

The two of them were stunned for a while, and then they still felt a little strange. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this, right?

However, they still believed in what Lu Chensheng said.

After hesitating for a while, I decided to get some to taste later, and then decide what flavor to eat.

"Where's Brother Du? We'll be eating later, why don't you see anyone?"

The meal for the Dragon Boat Festival was extremely sumptuous, and Lu Chensheng also invited Liu Wensheng along the way.

Let's have a lively Dragon Boat Festival together.

"Going back to the shopkeeper, Mr. Du seems to be in the valley with a dragon boat."

The canals in the valley have now been expanded a lot and are quite deep.

It is enough to say that it is used for dragon boat racing. For the common people who want to play dragon boats, Lu Chensheng naturally let him go.

"Call him back first."

Lu Chensheng thought for a while, and then spoke.

Hearing this, the attendant nodded immediately and prepared to find him back, but before he could go out, Du Rufang had already walked in from the door, followed by Liu Wensheng.

The two talked and laughed all the way, but Du Rufang's eyes were slightly dazed.

"I'm back, just sit down and eat later."

Lu Chensheng pointed to the chair beside him and said.

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and wormwood is planted outside the door, and the festive atmosphere is extremely strong.

Du Rufang sat down and took a sip of water.

"Brother Du is going to participate in the dragon boat rowing?"

Lu Chensheng looked Du Rufang up and down, with some doubts in his eyes.

From Lu Chensheng's point of view, the opponent's physical strength may not be enough to row a dragon boat.

The people work every day, and there is still a big difference in strength.

Hearing this, Du Rufang came back to his senses, took a look at Lu Chensheng, and shook his head quickly.

"I just saw the bustle in the valley, so I went to have a look, but I didn't think about participating."

Lu Chensheng nodded when he heard the words, the valley is indeed lively at the moment.

Recently, a lot of houses have been built, and many people have moved in one after another. According to the rules, there will be banquets when they move, which is called housewarming.

Now it’s the Dragon Boat Festival again, and the people who have settled down in the valley are decorated with lights and festoons in front of their doors, making it very lively.

The banquets have already been placed on the side streets.

"Brother Lu, there are already people's residences in the valley, but your palace..."

Liu Wensheng spoke at this moment, and looked at Lu Chensheng with some doubts.

The first to start construction were various workshops, and several workshops had already been built in the old city.

However, there is a water source in the valley, which is extremely convenient, so it moved to the valley again.

There are now more than a dozen large and small workshops in the valley, and the houses of the people have also been planned, and people have moved in one after another.

But Lu Chensheng's, now there is no movement at all. Seeing that Lu Chensheng is still living in this yard, he feels strange.

"This matter, it's not that they said that with my status, the palace must be bigger, so that I can match my status. It's just the beginning now."

Hearing Liu Wensheng talk about this matter, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but rubbed his forehead and said.

According to what the feng shui masters said, as well as what the craftsmen said, to build a palace, it is natural to build the best.

Up to now, the palace is still working on the foundation.

Now that the foundation has been laid, Lu Chensheng reckons that the other party wants to build the palace to be extremely large, otherwise such a deep foundation would not be needed at all.

Only a solid foundation can guarantee that after the palace is built, nothing like collapse will happen within hundreds of years.

I don't know how big a place they want to build.

After listening to Lu Chensheng's explanation, Liu Wensheng finally understood why this happened.

He also thought that none of the craftsmen thought about building this palace.

"Nowadays there are too few manpower. If all the manpower is mobilized to build the palace, the speed of construction can be greatly improved, but in this way, other projects will be delayed for a long time."

Lu Chensheng casually explained from the side.

In addition, there is actually another reason, that is, the construction of the palace is too expensive.

All kinds of precious wood need special someone to buy, and such precious wood can sometimes be bought without money.

Some of these things are for the imperial court.

Reduce the construction speed a little, and Lu Chensheng's funds will not appear too tight.
