Thousands of miles with the wind

Zhong Liran led Gu Siyuan to finish reading the memorials, and picked out some memorials that needed to be discussed with the courtiers, and finally finished a busy day of official duties.

Zhong Liran has a full day's schedule, and after finishing his official duties, he still needs to go to the school to practice martial arts.The sky is getting late, the wind is getting fuller, and the bright sunset glow flows on the clear glazed tiles, reflecting the moving brilliance.Zhong Liran dragged Gu Siyuan out of the bedroom, and led her to walk in the long corridor.

The afterglow of the setting sun elongated the figures of the two hand in hand in the corridor, which was deeply reflected in the palace corridor in the golden autumn.In the grand palace, the two of them walked side by side through the corridors over and over again, through the winter and summer, spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Time flies, in Gu Siyuan's comfortable life, Zhong Liran relied on the foreign corn, and after several trials, sowed the harvested seeds in Yanzhou, and started a new dynasty since then.Gradually, the young emperor sat firmly on the dragon chair underneath, raised his stature in an increasingly majestic aura, and thrived.

In the blink of an eye, Zhong Liran celebrated his 16th birthday and ushered in a splendid midsummer.

Another year of midsummer, the cruel heat spread across the scorching land of Chu State, wantonly taking away all moisture and vitality.Gu Siyuan was sitting under the promenade in the backyard of the Chen Palace wearing a thin gauze, leaning on the Bing Jian beside him, lazily flipping through a book of miscellaneous notes.Behind her, the fierce sunlight steamed the brilliant summer flowers, distorting them into a languid color.

In the silent corridor, only Xia Chan was screaming endlessly.The scorching heat evaporated one's energy, Gu Siyuan crouched on the cool bamboo chair and read a book for a while, then yawned lazily and fell asleep.Nothing happened at all, she took a nap with the book in her arms.

Seeing that she was asleep, the maids around all sat on the benches placed in the corridor as promised, careful not to make any noise.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps coming from the end of the corridor, each sound was clearer than the other.All the maids waiting around turned their heads and looked at the visitor.

I saw a girl in a white shirt walking out of the promenade covered by luxuriant branches and leaves.She is dressed in white gauze embroidered with blue and green bamboo, and her hair is tied with a silver crown. She has a tall and slender figure, just like the toughest Hsinchu.

The girl has an extremely soft and beautiful face, but because of her straight face, she looks very cold, with a serious majesty.When the maids saw her approaching, they saluted one after another: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The person who came was the emperor who had turned 16 years old. Seeing the maids saluting, she put her index finger to her lips to signal them to keep silent.Then he gently raised his hand to let them get up, while he walked up to Gu Siyuan and stood firmly.

Zhong Liran with his hands behind his back, stared at Gu Siyuan nestled in the bamboo chair, frowning and looking at her face.Her clear gaze swept over Gu Siyuan's soft eyebrows like willow leaves, delicate Qiong nose, and pink lips, and finally slid down and landed on the book she held in her arms.

Zhong Liran raised his eyebrows slightly, carefully identifying the book in Gu Siyuan's arms, and said softly: "Slanting Rain and Breeze... What kind of strange book is this?"

She spoke softly, but Gu Siyuan, who had heard her footsteps a long time ago, opened his eyes in a daze.Seeing her coming, Gu Siyuan opened his eyes and stretched a little, and said with a smile: "Is Your Majesty coming down so early today?"

Seeing her opening her eyes so quickly, Zhong Liran knew that she was definitely not asleep, and immediately frowned displeasedly: "Gu Siyuan, since you're not asleep, why don't you get up and salute me."

Gu Siyuan smiled, stretched out his hand and pulled her over, sat beside him, and argued: "I did fall asleep, but I woke up when His Majesty made a sound."

Zhong Liran glanced at her, and muttered: "Sophistry. Why are you reading here again, why don't you go back to the bedroom, what should you do if you catch a cold?"

Gu Siyuan put the book aside casually, and explained to Zhong Liran: "This place is cool and the scenery is good. I am greedy for the beauty of this place, so I am reluctant to leave."

Zhong Liran didn't believe her nonsense, and said, "Aren't you able to sit and never stand, and lie down and never move your nest? But there's not enough ice in the palace?"

This year's summer came early, and it was extremely hot and long.The ice storage in the palace consumes a lot, and Gu Siyuan feels sorry for the palace people to give them more ice, so the palace is not enough.

Therefore, Gu Siyuan reduced the proportion of the Chen Palace, and turned the Chen Palace, which was surrounded by ice mirrors, into a Chen Palace where only the emperor's study room was cool all day long.

As long as Zhong Liran is not in the palace, Gu Siyuan will carry the ice mirror and run out to find a cool place to read.Even though Zhong Liran didn't often get involved in the affairs of the harem, he also knew that the ice storage in the palace had reached its limit.

Hearing her question, Gu Siyuan hurriedly said: "Weiyang Palace is still enough. Except for Weiyang Palace, other palaces and provinces can barely survive this summer. Your Majesty, we are still young, so we might as well warm it up." thing."

Hearing what she said, Zhong Liran didn't want to talk about transporting Taiyiguan's ice storage to the palace.She nodded and said to Gu Siyuan: "From now on, only place the ice mirror in the inner hall of the Chen Palace at night. During the day, I will correct the memorials here with you."

Zhong Liran made such an arrangement, but Gu Siyuan couldn't say anything more, so he had to say yes.The maids brought out the bamboo mats, spread them on the cold stone slabs in the corridor, and moved the baskets of memorials over.After the two had lunch together, they sat together to read the memorial.

As early as early spring, Da Si Ming estimated that this year's climate will change suddenly, the hot season will intensify in various places, and there may be a severe drought in the northwest.Therefore, the emperor issued a decree early on, ordering the repair of canals in various places to divert water into storage to do a good job of storing water and fighting drought.Therefore, after the summer, it has been hot for a long time, and there are few disasters caused by drought in various places.Even if there is, the Ministry of Industry will be responsible for allocating water storage in various reservoirs to support drought-stricken areas.

In this way, although this summer is very hot, Zhong Liran is still very happy in terms of state affairs.

But this satisfaction disappeared after seeing a memorial from Wanzhou today.

Zhong Liran looked at the memorial in hand, looked and looked, and couldn't bear it anymore, so he threw the memorial in front of Gu Siyuan, gritted his teeth and said, "Look, look!"

Her tone was rarely angry, and Gu Siyuan turned his eyes slightly in surprise, looked at the memorial thrown by Zhong Liran, and asked in doubt: "What's the matter?" As she spoke, she opened the memorial, and couldn't help but Surprised: "Lianghe County, Planting Bud Valley?"

She said these six words, but Zhong Liran was not furious. Zhong Liran pointed to the memorial and said calmly: "Do you think the prefect of Lianghe County has lost his mind? A good land of fish and rice, everyone is stunned." Abandoned rice, planted corn."

"How much will the corn be harvested, and how much will the rice be harvested? Isn't this buying a basket and returning the pearl?"

"What are you talking about, which is as crystal clear as jade and is called corn. After planting corn, it is more in line with the name of Lianghe County's land of fish and rice."

"This is a pig's head, I'm really going to be pissed off by this pig's head!"

"Forcing the common people to plant corns like this, how do the common people think of me, and how the world sees me, I can't be a corn emperor!"

"Too much deception! Too much deception!"

Zhong Liran said a series of words, which showed that he was very angry.Gu Siyuan quickly comforted her, took her hand and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty calm down, calm down."

She spoke slowly and extremely softly, which half of Zhong Liran's anger dissipated.Zhong Liran took back the memorial, angrily criticized the word "pig's head", and said to Gu Siyuan: "I also know that in the past two years, in order to promote the cultivation of corn in China, Liang Xia and others were greatly rewarded, which attracted a lot of attention. Others followed suit."

When Zhong Liran was 13 years old, she formally took charge of the government, and the auxiliary ministers abdicated one by one, so she took advantage of the opportunity to raise Liang Xia, and threw some talented Jinshi in the past few years to Yanzhou, Lanzhou and other places to open up wasteland. .

Those recent Scholars have changed the appearance of the barren land in Yanzhou in just three years, gradually getting rid of poverty, and Zhong Liran just gave him a compliment.Because of this, there is no one in the country who does not know that Zhong Liran is extremely rare for this corn.Some curious people gradually planted them at home.So far, Baogu is not a rare thing in Chu State.

The planting of Baogu relieved the food pressure in Yanzhou and other places, which was a good thing for the court.But once the court officials have bad intentions and regard it as an act of inviting credit, it will be at a great disadvantage.

The reasons why Zhong Liran was angry were firstly because the prefect of Lianghe wasted his livelihood by planting corn to claim credit; secondly, he was so stupid that he couldn't see his intentions and played himself like a monkey; thirdly, it was unbelievable that a prefect was so stupid.

After thinking about this, Zhong Liran said angrily: "I have to find a way to deal with these people."

Such a rash move, what else is it if it is not playing the emperor with a monkey!

Gu Siyuan understood why she was angry best, and a plan came to his mind, and he said to Zhong Liran: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, since the prefect of Lianghe County sent ten carts of Baogu to Beijing, your Majesty will set up a stall in front of Zhaohui Hall tomorrow." Cook the corn and feed it to the ministers who have not eaten."

Zhong Liran glanced at her and said, "Are you serious?"

Gu Siyuan nodded and said with a smile, "Really." After she finished speaking, she blinked again, and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty will curse people after they finish eating."

The ministers are full and have strength, and they can stand from morning to noon, which is enough for the little emperor to scold for a while.Zhong Liran made up his mind, then frowned and said, "Then I must scold you well tomorrow!"

The author has something to say: I will join V tomorrow, see you at eight o'clock in the evening!Three more!

I hope you will collect more, I am under a lot of pressure!
