Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Li Shen's team had already set off to Nanyang at the beginning of the year. Now that he came back in December, Li Shen has almost forgotten them.

"Xuance, are you telling the truth? I thought they were all dead."

"Your Majesty, the information just came back from Fuzhou. Their ships are all parked in our own dock. It is reported that they have brought back a lot of rice and spices. There are seven large ships."

"So many, it's great. This news is the best news for Yuan Zheng. Inform them to hire vehicles locally. It doesn't matter if the price is higher. They must be transported back to me in front of Yuan Zheng. I will go to the palace immediately to invite them. According to the decree, the local government soldiers are responsible for escorting."

"Yes" Wang Xuance agreed. He knew that this batch of rice was too important for the palace's future strategy.

After Li Shen finished explaining, he rushed to the palace with his people. Wang De heard that Li Shen had something important and wanted to see Li Shimin to report it quickly.

Li Shimin was also surprised. His son had never discussed business with him. When Wang De brought Li Shen to Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin was discussing matters.

"Li Shen, why are you so anxious to see me?"

When Li Shen came in, all the big bosses from the three provinces and six ministries looked at Li Shen, wanting to see what important matters this obscure prince had.

"Aye, the fleet going south is back!"

"The fleet going south?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment and didn't understand, but soon he remembered what Li Shen said about the planting of three crops.

"You mean the fleet that went south to buy seeds?"

"Exactly, Aye, have you arrived in Fuzhou now?"

"Okay, very good, can I get the seeds in exchange?" Li Shimin was very excited.

"There are quite a few big ships."

"Your Majesty, I wonder what ship going south your Majesty is talking about?" Fang Xuanling looked at the two men talking enthusiastically and didn't know why they were so happy, so she asked.

"My dear friends, do you still remember what I said a few months ago that King Ji found the rice that ripens three times a year? Now the fleet has returned."

"came back?"

"really have?"

"What a blessing to the Tang Dynasty."

Everyone began to sigh.

"Gentlemen, three-crop rice can only be grown in the south, such as Jiannan and Lingnan. Most of the south can only grow two-crop rice. But we can cultivate it ourselves.

I plan to build a breeding base at Fifth Brother in Lingnan, and mix all the rice seeds in Datang there to see if better seeds can be cultivated. "

"Two crops are already good, three crops should require special conditions." said Ma Zhou, who has farmed before.

"Yes, if the south can have two crops, then our country's output will double. Even in disaster years, there will still be no famine in our Tang Dynasty." Changsun Wuji nodded in agreement.

Ever since Li Shen used the prince's name to build the college, Changsun Wuji's attitude toward Li Shen became ambiguous again.

"Prince Ji is indeed the lucky star of the Tang Dynasty. No wonder people say that Prince Ji is the reincarnation of the God of Wealth. Now that Prince Ji has found three-crop rice, our Tang Dynasty will surely prosper." Gao Shilian praised.

As soon as he heard that he was the God of Wealth reincarnated, Li Shen's defense mechanism immediately started automatically.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Gao? The king's warehouse is now empty, and he has used it all to build the academy. Now he can barely maintain the expenses of the palace. I really..."

"Okay, tell me why you are here. If you have nothing else to do, just leave. We still have to discuss state affairs." Li Shimin interrupted Li Shen's continued misfortune.

"..." Are you going to kill the donkey so quickly?

"Aye, I'm here to ask for orders to mobilize local soldiers from Fuzhou to escort this batch of supplies back to Chang'an."

"Oh, Wang De informed the military officers of the official document to rush to Fuzhou six hundred miles away. He ordered five thousand soldiers to escort the palace's supplies back to Chang'an."

"Yes"

"Then...resign?" Li Shen thought there would be some kind of reward or some praise.

"Well, let's go."

"........"

Li Shen left the palace depressed, but since he came here, he might as well go to the harem to see Concubine Wei. So Li Shen turned around and went to the harem again.

Li Shen's entry into the harem was similarly complicated, and he was followed by a eunuch.

When they arrived at the Daji Hall, Li Mengjiang was making female bridesmaids with Concubine Wei Guifei. There was a charcoal basin placed between mother and daughter.

The weather was so cold that people in ancient times had to rely on charcoal pots for heating. Many people's homes don't even have charcoal pots, and they freeze to death every winter.

As soon as Li Shen came in, he heard Concubine Wei say

"Close the door quickly, the cold wind is blowing in."

Li Shen looked at the red hands of his mother and daughter and felt very guilty. His palace was so warm, but he had forgotten his mother and sister.

Is this the legendary story of marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting her mother?

"Mother, come and stay at my place. It's very warm here." Li Shen said distressedly.

"Silly boy, it doesn't happen every year."

"No, it's too cold this winter. You and your sister should come live at my place. I told Aye."

"Forget it, Shen'er, this is against the rules. It's okay for your sister to come to your place. Mother and concubine can't stay there forever." This is the rule, and Li Shimin is not dead. It's okay for a noble concubine of yours to stay with your son forever.

"Sister is not going either. I want to stay with my mother and concubine." Li Mengjiang also said.

Seeing how tough the mother and daughter were, Li Shen's mind began to work rapidly.

During this period, there were only a few methods of heating, including stoves, kangs, and ground dragons.

In fact, Li Shen's laboratory is studying the sealing problem of heating pipes, and has already made a big breakthrough. But it will definitely not be used this year.

"Shitou, you go back to the palace immediately and ask Wang Hongfu to bring the craftsmen who made the earth dragon and kang for the palace outside the palace. There are also some materials.

I will go to the Queen to ask for a decree. "

The affairs of the harem are the responsibility of the Queen. If outsiders want to come in, the Queen will issue an order to approve it.

Li Shen went to the Li Zheng Hall in a state of shock when the mother and daughter were stunned.

"Queen, Your Highness Prince Ji would like to see you." A eunuch reported.

The weather was so cold that Empress Changsun and the two princesses Jinyang and Hengshan were also in the house. Sizi and Hengshan were very happy when they heard that Li Shen was coming.

Li Shen was brought in after a while.

"I met my mother."

"Shen'er, come sit down and serve tea."

"Thank you mother."

"Brother Ten, Brother Ten, didn't you bring something delicious?" The two little ones looked over Li Shen's body and asked after finding nothing.

"Brother Ten is here at last minute. I'll have someone deliver it to you tomorrow." Li Shen likes these two little sisters very much, especially Sizi, who is smart, well-behaved and sensible.

"Mother, I came here to ask for a decree from my mother. I want to bring some craftsmen in to renovate a room for my mother's concubine's Daji Hall.

I just went to Daji Hall and saw my mother and sister surrounding the charcoal basin. I was very heartbroken. Now that I see my mother doing the same, I feel even more uncomfortable.

The son was unfilial and did not come over early. Later, the mother chose a room and the son had the craftsmen renovate it together. He could barely survive the winter.

Next year we will be doing a lot of renovations and give it a good makeover. "Li Shen said with great emotion, which moved Empress Changsun.

He thought to himself, look at his son and see that his biological mother is suffering from the cold, so he tried every means. Looking at my son again, I suddenly felt that it was better to be someone else’s child.

"Shen'er Renxiao, I'm going to write you a note right now." After saying that, he came to the desk and started writing a note to Li Shen.

(I feel a little stuck and have no inspiration. Mainly because I am too busy at ordinary times. When I come back to think about the plot, I don’t have an outline. Please give me some suggestions. The 38 words here are not included in the text.)
