The prince and princess were headed by Li Chengqian, and the concubines were headed by Concubine Yang, the big and the small were hugging and clamoring for breastfeeding, and the whole royal family was alarmed.
After all, this is a big event, the emperor and the queen blew the whistle and shouted to gather, who would dare not come?
So, when they saw Empress Changsun leading the cow and Li Shimin coming over with the plow, everyone was stunned. Where did they get the linen clothes? How did His Majesty and the Empress wear them?
And what kind of trouble are these couples going to have? Could it be that this garden is really being pushed away? It's pitiful to say that, for these people who are kept in the deep palace compound, this garden is one of the few leisure places for them up.
Empress Changsun was the most delicate minded, looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, she said directly,
"This garden will not be completely demolished. After all, money and thought have been spent, but at least [-]% of the land has to be planted with crops. I believe that you will know by then that this is the best scenery!"
Chapter 253
Zhang Nuo once made a joke with Li Shimin, saying that the old rural couple thought that the emperor must use a golden hoe to dig the ground every day, and the queen could eat baked scallion pancakes every day.
This was originally just a joke, but if Zhang Nuo really came to the Royal Garden at this moment, he would probably have to sigh that art comes from reality.
The land cultivated by the two most noble people in the world is naturally completely different from that of ordinary farmers.
First of all, the cattle must be the best farming cattle, not only the strongest and the best coat color are selected from the best, but also the ones with a docile temper.
Then it can’t be sent directly, it has to be cleaned and combed first, and after the whole cow’s spirit is changed, a red flower woven with red silk can be hung around the neck before it can be sent to the queen. Empress hand.
Just here, there is a large group of people following not far or near, ready to catch the runaway cattle at any time.
Then, the Quyuanli, which was just obtained an hour ago, has been treated temporarily by the best craftsman in the palace. Not only has the plowshare been polished until it shines, but the handrail has also been carefully wrapped with a layer of leather. , just so as not to hurt your hands.
And the wood used for the whole pair of plow rakes has also been polished to a smooth finish, so there is no fear that any small wooden thorns will scratch His Majesty.
Due to the short time, the craftsmen did not do any extra decorations, and simply stamped the royal emblem on the curved shaft plow with gold thread.
Even the land that Li Shimin and his wife were planning to plow was completely different at the moment, because they were worried that His Majesty and the Empress would be inexperienced, so in just a short while, the servants had already arranged for someone to plow the slightly larger stones nearby. Picked them all up.
If Zhang Nuo saw all of this, he might have an old mouth stuck in his throat and probably suffocate him to death!
But in the eyes of everyone present, it seems to be a matter of course!
How can the working utensils used by the emperor and empress be the same as those used by ordinary farmers?
This person with a body of thousands of gold and a body of ten thousand gold is the most noble person in the world, so this equipment must be different from ordinary people at this time.
Even Li Shimin and Empress Changsun took it for granted, let alone the others.
On the contrary, the waiter who was waiting on the side was secretly thinking, the time is too tight today, otherwise the plow rake should be painted and silver threaded.
In the eyes of the servants, as long as His Majesty wants to use it, it must be the best, to show the royal style, anyway, there are so many skilled craftsmen, if this job can't be done well, then there is nothing use?
No matter how absurd the scene is, at least Li Shimin and his wife had finished the plow and the ox, and then under the eyes of everyone, the couple really started plowing in the imperial garden with the ox and the plow up.
Not long after plowing, the soldiers of the Imperial Army guarding the side couldn't stand it anymore, mother, is this plowing?Isn't this bitch drawing snakes on the ground?
After all, she was inexperienced, and Empress Changsun led the ox with her head held high, but if she looked back, she would find that she had deviated from the starting point by a considerable distance.
And if Empress Changsun said that she took the wrong direction, then Li Shimin is completely letting himself go here. Before Zhang Nuo, he just tried it and didn't dare to play more.
But here, it is his home field. I saw him swaying left and right, pawing here and there for a while. After the whole field was plowed by him, it was almost impossible to see.
Let’s not talk about the ground turning crookedly, it’s going to be deep and shallow for a while, and it’s going to kill me.
However, who dares to speak at this time?
Who dares to stand up and say that you husband and wife should stop spoiling the ox and the plow, and you should rest aside and study hard.
I am afraid that only Zhang Nuo dared to say this, but unfortunately, he is not here!
So, everyone just watched the couple quietly, leading the ox and holding the plow to run rampant in the imperial garden, leaving only crooked ravines of different depths behind them.
Those who have cultivated land at home can naturally see how rough the work of Li Shimin and his wife is, but these princes and princesses have never seen this.
In their opinion, wow, this thing is so fun, as long as someone leads the cow in front and someone behind supports it, then it can turn the original flat ground upside down?
So amazing!
As the oldest one, Li Chengqian knew that this was plowing the land, but when had he seen this up close with his own eyes?
What's more, who is plowing the land now? It's his own parents!
Li Chengqian knew that his father called him over today just to let him take his younger siblings to take a good look at the hard work of the farmers.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian suddenly ran over, stood beside Li Shimin and said,
"Royal father, my son and I will learn from you how to plow the land!"
Li Shimin laughed loudly, obviously very happy that Li Chengqian came up to ask to learn the arable land, and Empress Changsun was naturally also happy, after all, she was his eldest son and son, and now it seemed that their painstaking efforts were not in vain.
"Chengqian, Uncle Zhang made this plow. Try it. It's not only labor-saving and light, but it can also be used for deep plowing. This way, you can use the soil force better. You can try it!"
For the Uncle Zhang who gave him the bicycle, Li Chengqian was very impressed. He was full of poetry and books, and he was full of knowledge, which is not enough to describe his father's sworn brother.
Perhaps it is the most appropriate compliment to that Uncle Zhang to say that the last sentence is a fairy trick.
Since Uncle Zhang made the plow rake, and his father highly praised it, Li Chengqian naturally had to give it a try. After all, this was something to show his face in front of his father and mother, so he had to work hard.
And after taking over the plow from Li Shimin's hand, the ravine that was crooked like a painted snake became more and more invisible now.
After all, although Li Shimin can't walk in a straight line, at least he wins because he can hold the plow steady with great strength!
Now it's Li Chengqian, no matter how light the Quyuanli is, it is still made of solid wood and iron, and its weight is not so light.
Li Chengqian is a small person who can support the plow and rake without falling over. He has tried his best. The effect of the cultivated land, let's talk about something else, such as watching the emperor take out the handkerchief he carried with him to wipe the queen's sweat. OK!
Although the cold wind is blowing at this moment, and the people watching from the sidelines are already stomping their feet in the cold, but what they want is the feeling of deep affection between the couple.
Could it be that such a rough old man like Li Shimin would really be expected to take care of others?
However, no matter how much Li Shimin tosses in the imperial garden, there must be a limit.No, the sky turned dark by accident, and today's cultivated land has come to an end for the time being!
Chapter 254: The Boss of the Ministry of Industry Is Worse?
In fact, according to the rules of ordinary farmers' families, they usually have to go to work in the field as soon as the sun comes out early in the morning, and then at noon, they usually use cold water in the field with a few hard pancakes to make do with it.
Then I was busy until it was dark before I could pack up and go home, eat, sleep and wait for the start of the next day.
But this kind of life obviously cannot be placed on Li Shimin and his wife. Apart from other things, did he not go to court early in order to cultivate the land?
It was the first time for Li Shimin and his wife to work in the field seriously. Although the results were unbearable to look at directly, their attitude was still very good. Li Shimin didn't stop working until it was dark.
Looking at the trembling people standing there, Li Shimin was a little dissatisfied, and said directly,
"Today we don't have enough equipment. In the evening, the supervisor will rush to make it all night. Tomorrow, I will go to the morning court, and you will come here to learn how to plow the land!"
"My dynasty is based on agriculture and food. Naturally, my children can't become gnats who don't work hard and don't know the grain. Everyone has to study hard this year!"
"Now it is plowing the land, and in the future it will be spring sowing and autumn harvesting, watering and fertilizing, you all have to learn it!"
Seeing that Li Shimin had given his orders seriously, and there was no objection, they quickly nodded and said yes, and then began to complain secretly in their hearts, while some were thinking that they had to find out how to work tonight, so that they could be with His Majesty tomorrow. Show up in front of you.
Li Shimin saw that everyone agreed very readily, and felt a little more comfortable, then proudly pointed to the crooked land behind him and said,
"See, this is the example I set for you as your father and emperor. I don't demand that you do as well as I do, but at least you have to do it with your heart. Do you understand?"
Among these princes and princesses, Li Chengqian, the oldest one, is only eight years old this year, and he grew up in the deep palace compound. I just think that the father is very powerful, and he can also plow the land.
The servant serving at the side is from a poor family. Now looking at His Majesty's masterpiece, I feel pain in my cheek. How will I deal with it?
If His Majesty didn't let those princes and princesses come to plow the fields tomorrow, he must arrange someone to help His Majesty deal with it tonight.
But tomorrow morning these princes and princesses have to learn to plow the land, it will be a bit troublesome, if he arranges someone to do the work, then why are these princes and princesses going?
However, none of the people who can follow the emperor is stupid. Turning around, he thought of an idea that he can't help the princes with work, but the land plowed by His Majesty today can be simply repaired.
After all, it is impossible not to repair it, even if it cannot be completely straightened, but at least the depth must be guaranteed to be the same, otherwise how will the land be sown by then!
Thinking of this, the servant immediately began to think about the manpower, he must be a veteran, and tonight, he had to arrange for a general to copy the Qu Yuanli quickly. What he wants tomorrow is not just one or two, so many princes , Princess.
Besides, the time is too tight today, the plow rake brought back by His Majesty has not been properly decorated, and it cannot reflect His Majesty's identity and temperament, so I have to rush out of work tonight, and the objects used by His Majesty are naturally different from those of other people. Same.
Empress Changsun was obviously also very satisfied with the results of today's labor. She always felt that this was much more comfortable than going to the garden. Didn't shopkeeper Zhang just persuade her to exercise more when she was free.
This serves multiple purposes now, and maybe it can make the body better.
After Li Shimin returned to his Ganlu Hall, he felt refreshed, and he suddenly remembered what Zhang Nuo said.
Doing some work properly is much more comfortable than lying there!
He didn't understand it at the time, but now that he survived by such a coincidence, he found that it really seemed to be the case. His whole body became more active, and his appetite improved a lot.
This made Li Shimin instantly decide that he must take the children to plow the entire imperial garden, otherwise he would be sorry for the few rakes he got.
For the emperor, the most important task every day is to go to court early!
This is not only an occasion for reporting work, but also an occasion for discussing major national affairs. Basically, there are no trivial matters that can be discussed in this place.
But today, after the officials went to court, they were surprised to find that before His Majesty came, there was a strangely shaped plow in the center of the court.
They are all adults. Even if they have never worked in the fields themselves, they still have the knowledge they should have. This is obviously a plow rake that they have never seen before.
Although they didn't know the effect of the plow rake, it was meaningful to be placed in the center of the court so majestically by His Majesty.
As soon as Changsun Wuji saw the plow rake that had been repackaged and polished, he immediately turned his head and saw Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, following behind him.
When Duan Lun saw Changsun Wuji glance over at this moment, he was still a little puzzled, but when he saw Changsun Wuji secretly pointing forward, Duan Lun's face turned pale.
What else does it mean to point forward, it means Your Majesty, why just remind him?
Cooperating with the plow rake placed in the middle of the court today, what other meanings could it have, except to remind him that he might get sprayed today.
I don't know if this seat can be kept by then!
As Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Duan Lun has lived in peace and stability for several years. He is not only the minister of Conglong when the Li family raised troops, but also Li Yuan's son-in-law, who married Princess Gaomi.
Originally, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he planned to be honest and avoid bad luck, but he didn't even think that he would be criticized today, and he was reminded by Changsun Wuji that something big might happen!
Alas, forget it, stretching the head is also a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife. Anyway, when he was the governor of Yizhou during the Wude period, someone accused him of treason.
Now the Minister of the Ministry of Industry is actually just trying to catch the ducks on the shelves. If His Majesty really cut him off, it doesn't matter. Anyway, he is now Doctor You Guanglu and the Duke of the County. With the addition of the son-in-law of the Supreme Emperor, he wants to be a knight. Of course it won't be cut.
Then you might as well take this opportunity to resign and go home as soon as possible, and live an honest life.
After all, even though he and this majesty are relatives, they actually don't have a very good relationship. It might happen that one day they make a mistake in an errand, and they really lose their title, but there is no place to cry.
Chapter 255 Li Shimin beats the Ministry of Industry
After Li Shimin went to the court to accept the worship of the officials, he did not immediately accept the opening ceremony of the officials, but pointed to the plow in the middle and said,
"My dear friends are all well-informed and well-informed people. Does anyone know what this is?"
Among the officials present, Changsun Wuji is undoubtedly the clearest, but at this time he will not show up foolishly, His Majesty obviously has arrangements, and in all likelihood, he wants to beat Duan Lun, and he will join in at the moment. Go up, even if you will get sprayed, you should just stay there!
The insider, Changsun Wuji, did not speak. Although the others recognized it as a plow rake, they had never seen it before, so naturally they would not open their mouths.
There is a big principle in this officialdom, that is, do not seek merit but seek no faults, even if you are a bastard in the court, as long as you stay in peace and stability for a few years, if you don't make mistakes, you can slowly increase your rank go up.
Usually, there are people who would like to flatter and flatter, but in today's situation, it is obvious that His Majesty has some arrangements, so it is better not to speak rashly, because if you don't flatter the horse's legs, the loss outweighs the gain.
Therefore, it is obvious that all the courtiers present are old fritters who are well versed in the rules of officialdom. Even Wei Zheng, the number one fan of the Tang Dynasty, is looking down at his fingernails at the moment, as if there is a growth on them. A flower is coming.
He, Wei Zheng, is not stupid, he can spray what he should for the country and the people, as long as he takes the righteousness, even if he points at Li Shimin's nose and scolds the faint king, Li Shimin can only accept it.
But if someone really thinks that there is nothing wrong, and they can spray a meal in front of Li Shimin with just one thing, then the old birthday star is just looking for death by eating arsenic.
It's really shameless to be an emperor, is it true that Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father to ascend to the throne of God is a soft-hearted person?
So, after seeing that even Wei Zheng had stopped at this moment, the other courtiers became even more quiet, bowing their heads and shrinking their necks like quails, wishing they could stuff their heads into their crotches right now.
Li Shimin obviously expected this kind of scene long ago. If you don't speak up, why can't I call names? Anyway, today's play is specially arranged, and it's okay if the protagonist doesn't appear on stage.
"Duan Shangshu, your Ministry of Industry governs skilled craftsmen all over the world, and you should be most familiar with the art of building and construction. I wonder if you can clear up my confusion!"
When Duan Lun heard Li Shimin's roll call, his brain was buzzing, and he really couldn't escape it. Brother Auxiliary Machine reminded him rightly, His Majesty seems to be staring at the Ministry of Industry today!
But even if the knife is up to the neck, what should be answered still has to be answered, just think carefully.
Therefore, Duan Lun walked slowly to the center, took another look at the strange-shaped plow rake, and replied in a deep voice,
"Forgive me for being stupid, I can only tell that this is a plow rake, but I don't know how effective it is, where it was made, or where it came from!"
After Li Shimin heard Duan Lun's answer, he didn't reply, just looked at him silently, and the whole court fell into a strange calm.
However, the others were a little relieved at the moment. It seems that His Majesty is going to take Duan Lun for surgery today, so it's no big deal, as long as he doesn't involve himself, it doesn't matter.
Li Shimin was silent for a while, and after realizing that Duan Lun was sweating from the cold weather, he finally spoke,
