Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Dai Zhou couldn't help going out of the shift and said: "Your Majesty, absolutely not! Those death prisoners violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and they are all unforgivable crimes. If they are allowed to go home rashly, then the laws of the Tang Dynasty will be useless. .”

Fang Xuanling said: "Once I say a word, it's hard to catch up with four horses. Please give me your Majesty's kindness."

Dai Zhou turned to Fang Xuanling and said, "It's really absurd. If you escape from the prisoner, wouldn't Your Majesty become the laughing stock of the ages?"

Li Jiancheng shook his head without denying it and said: "Fang Xiangguo is right, it is not unreasonable, my Tang Dynasty was able to overcome the unprecedented difficulties and wiped out the Turks in one fell swoop, it must be protected by the heavens, such a great source of blessing, if Of course I regret not being able to let every citizen of the Tang Dynasty bathe. Since Fang Xiangguo dares to take the title of Shangshu Youpushe, why should I be afraid of leaving a laughing stock for the ages? Zhunzuo, ordered the Secretary of State to draft an order."

Fang Xuanling knelt down and kowtowed: "It is the great fortune of my Tang people to have such protection from Your Majesty!"

All the officials knelt down and praised him.

Li Jiancheng smiled with satisfaction.

Dai Zhou looked unwilling.

The officials retreated.

Wang Gui caught up with Yang Gongren and said, "Why did Your Majesty agree to Fang Xiangguo's request on a whim?"

Yang Gongren smiled and said: "It's just a whim. The civil and military courts are all looking at His Majesty eagerly. At this time, Fang Xiangguo's face is not good. Besides, Fang Xiangguo's play is also good. Didn't you Look at His Majesty, with a smile on his face."

Wang Gui said: "What's the use of being happy now? If you don't have a copy of the signature, this order is just a mouthful, and you can't get out of the Taiji Palace."

Yang Gongren said with an expression of watching a play: "Then it depends on Wei Xuancheng, whether he is willing to raise his hand."

Wang Gui pursed his lips: "Xuan Cheng Xuan Cheng, I think Xuan, nine out of ten, His Majesty wants to be happy for nothing."

……

Carrying a bag of things, Li Jiancheng strode into the hall, and said with a clear smile: "Guanyin", all the maids, eunuchs and eunuchs saluted one after another. Li Jiancheng waved his hands and walked straight to Zheng Guanyin.

Zheng Guanyin wanted to get up too, but was immediately stopped by Li Jiancheng.

Zheng Guanyin looked up at Li Jiancheng with a smile on his face, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, why are you so happy today?"

Li Jiancheng teased Li Zhi, who was being carried by the maid, and laughed uncontrollably.

Little Li Zhi reached out and stroked Li Jiancheng's beard, Li Jiancheng grinned in pain.

Xiao Li Zhi giggled.

While teasing little Li Zhi, Li Jiancheng said to Zheng Guanyin: "Yesterday, when Wei Zheng was not in court, I made a fool of myself to find something for him to do."

Zheng Guanyin raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what did you do?"

Li Jiancheng smiled more presumptuously and said, "I have released all the prisoners on death row."

Zheng Guanyinluo's eyes widened in astonishment.

Li Jiancheng admired Zheng Guanyin's surprised expression, sat down beside her, and held her hand while brushing the large sleeves of his toga, and immediately frowned deeply and said, "Why are your hands so cold?" ?”

Zheng Guanyin subconsciously withdrew her hand, stared at her eyes and said, "Talking about yourself, you are the emperor, isn't this nonsense?"

Li Jiancheng obviously lost interest, and said vaguely: "This was suggested by Fang Xuanling, I don't want to refute his face."

Zheng Guanyin shook his head and said, "Then this is too outrageous."

Li Jiancheng said disapprovingly: "It's okay, anyway, there is a hurdle to save the door. Dai Zhou is also famous for his stubborn temper. When Wei Zheng gets paid, Dai Zhou will definitely go to Wei Zheng to talk about it."

Zheng Guanyin couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

Li Jiancheng rubbed Zheng Guanyin's hands with deep self-blame, frowning tightly.

Zheng Guanyin said angrily: "No wonder you came to me so leisurely in broad daylight. The ministers are working so hard, and you are still messing around."

Li Jiancheng smiled and said: "Don't worry about my affairs, Wei Zheng and the others are watching, nothing can go wrong, but you are the one who troubles the harem and the children..."

Li Jiancheng sighed uncontrollably.

Zheng Guanyin looked at Li Jiancheng, who made no secret of his worry and distress, and smiled contentedly and happily.

Zheng Guanyin's eyes fell on the package Li Jiancheng brought, and said with a smile, "I'm fine, hey, what did you bring?"

Li Jiancheng was taken aback, and hurriedly let go of Zheng Guanyin's hands, excitedly opened the package he brought, and a few sweet potatoes rolled out of it.

Zheng Guanyin's eyes lit up and said, "What is it?"

Li Jiancheng excitedly picked up a sweet potato, took out a knife, quickly peeled it, and then broke it in half.

Li Jiancheng said: "This is emigrated from the Fusang Continent, so I brought some here specially, you can try it."

Zheng Guanyin's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly: "Your Majesty!"

Li Jiancheng held up half of the sweet potatoes in front of Zheng Guanyin, nodded helplessly and said, "I know, I know, I guarantee that I won't waste people's money. This is what the third sister stored in the cellar of Furong Garden."

Hearing this, Zheng Guanyin felt better.

After all, Li Xiuning and Chen Ying are truly wealthy.

Zheng Guanyin smiled lightly, took Li Jiancheng's hand, and ate the sweet potato, unconsciously stretching the corners of his eyes and brows.

Li Jiancheng also smiled contentedly and said, "Is it delicious?"

Zheng Guanyin smiled and said, "It's delicious! It's a bit sweet..."

Li Jiancheng said: "This thing is called sweet potato, and its yield is extremely high. It was originally produced in Fusang. Chen Ying asked someone to transplant it from the Fusang mainland. After three years of hard cultivation, it finally yielded results."

Many people think that with sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes, the food crisis can be solved.

In fact, this is a wrong understanding.Sweet potatoes were introduced to China in the 21st year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. Chen Zhenlong, a Fujian sea merchant, and his son Chen Zhenglun, despite the blockade of the Spanish colonial army, hid them in cables and brought them to Fujian for planting.However, sweet potatoes did not quickly spread throughout China.It is said that such high-yield crops can definitely avoid the great famine in the late Ming Dynasty. However, in fact, the problem of food famine in the fields was not completely solved until the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

More than 300 years have passed.

The main reason is that, for any species, there is a process of adaptation when migrating from the place of origin. Of course, the most important thing is that it needs to cultivate good varieties.

For example, cotton.Ancient India is one of the origins of cotton in the world. However, the quality of cotton in India is not good and the yield is low. On the contrary, long-staple cotton is widely planted in the world, which is mainly the result of cultivation.

When Chen Ying first tried to grow sweet potatoes, the yield per mu was not as amazing as that of later generations, but only five or six stones per mu, which was less than a thousand catties.

Of course, this is still wet weight. If sweet potatoes are made into dried sweet potatoes and then ground into flour, it will weigh at most [-] catties. In fact, peppers, corn, potatoes, including tomatoes, all face a very serious problem.

Yields are extremely low.

Fortunately, Chen Ying had a certain foundation, and used the technicians of the Agricultural College of Datang University of Technology to conduct repeated research and experiments, and finally cultivated sweet potatoes with a yield of more than [-] shi per mu.

Li Jiancheng explained the origin and function of sweet potatoes to Zheng Guanyin.

At the same time, a red clay stove was brought in. On this red clay stove, Li Jiancheng baked sweet potatoes on the fire.
