After three years of enfeoffment, the waste prince shocked the court boss

Chapter 39 A Great Gift from Lingnan

"Xuan!"

Emperor Qian sat back on the dragon chair again.

"Let's see what news Li Su brings to me. Let those silverfish kneel there first."

Emperor Qian thought to himself.

Soon, a strong man in black lacquered armor walked in.

Everyone could tell at a glance that this was Li Su's An Wangwei's standard armor.

It was really shocking when this team beat the Tatar cavalry at the beginning, it is hard to forget.

"An Wangwei's personal soldier Lin Mo kowtows to His Majesty!"

Lin Mo knelt on one knee, cupped his fists and bowed to Emperor Qian.

"Be flat!"

As soon as Emperor Qian raised his hand, he looked at Lin Mo with approval.

From this point of view, it is a fierce soldier who has experienced the battlefield. If everyone in the Dagan army is like this, Dagan will definitely sweep everything.

"Is there anything important Lingnan wants to tell me?"

Emperor Qian said kindly, his expression was completely different from the way he treated Han Yeqin just now.

At this time, Han Yeqin and the officials of the Prince's line were still kneeling on the ground for a quarter of an hour, and their expressions were a little unnatural.

"Your Majesty, my Highness has made a new type of plow called Qu Yuan Plow, which can save [-]% of manpower and ox power.

His Highness thought that my large group of people were plowing in the spring, so he immediately asked me to send the drawings to His Majesty without stopping. "

Lin Mo was sent to deliver the letter. He was originally a clever person, and he was doing Li Su's credit both in and out of his words.

"Oh? There is such a fetish? King An can still think of the court thousands of miles away. He is really loyal. Has there ever been a sample?"

Emperor Qian was overjoyed when he heard about it.

There is a shortage of cattle in Daqian, and half of the land is cultivated by manpower.

If what Lin Mo said was true, it would definitely be a great thing for Daqian.

Saving [-]% manpower and ox power means that a family can cultivate [-] mu of land before, but now they can cultivate [-] mu or even more.

For Dagan, this is tantamount to increasing grain production by [-]%.

"In order to save time, I sent the drawings one day earlier, so I didn't bring samples.

However, His Majesty ordered several skilled craftsmen to complete the construction in less than an hour under the guidance of the humble staff. "

Lin Mo said.

"Okay, you guys get up first, don't kneel down, and go with me later to see the new plow sent by King An."

Emperor Qian said indifferently to the kneeling officials.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Mo followed the craftsmen to make Quyuanli, while Emperor Qian went to rest in the back hall.

All the officials in the court had no choice but to wait in the carrier hall, but they dared not complain aloud.

Everyone knew that if it wasn't for the people from Lingnan just now, Emperor Qian would definitely be furious, so no one wanted to make trouble at this time.

The master craftsmen in the palace were highly skilled. They only looked at the blueprints and asked Lin Mo a few questions, and they worked together to create a standard Quyuanli in less than an hour.

After Emperor Qian got the news, he ordered all the officials in the court to follow him to a farmland outside the city.

The mighty team surprised all the people who were farming.

"Find someone to try this new plow!"

Emperor Qian ordered.

Soon, an old farmer was brought before Emperor Qian and all the officials.

The old farmer is a farmer in the suburbs of Beijing, and he is plowing his own farmland.

Because there is no cow at home, I pull the plow with my son. Although it is early spring, I am already tired and sweating profusely.

"Old man, don't be afraid, I got a new type of plow, and I want you to try the effect."

Emperor Qian had always been kind to the common people, so naturally he put away the majesty of the emperor.

Seeing the emperor's kindness, the old farmer calmed down and was no longer as nervous as he was at first.

After a while, he brought in his own sons, one pulling the plow in front and the other holding the plow behind, and started plowing.

Since it was the first time they had come into contact with Qu Yuanli, the two of them were still a little uncomfortable.

But after walking forward for more than ten meters, the father and father became familiar with the control method of the new plow, and became handy.

At first, the two were left far behind by other farmers who were plowing the land.

But as the duo became more proficient, there were signs of catching up to the others.

In just two quarters of an hour, the father and his wife, who were left far behind at first, had surpassed several farmers in the neighboring land on the left and right.

"It's so fast!"

Sinon Qing Wu Zuoren exclaimed.

"Can Ai Qing see the way?"

Emperor Qian asked.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the shaft head of this plow can be rotated, which is convenient for turning and turning. It is flexible to operate, and the plow body is also lighter.

Judging from the farming effects of these two people, what the personal guard said was not exaggerated. I am afraid that the efficiency has increased by more than [-]%. His Royal Highness Wang An is really a fantastic idea! "

Wu Zuoren analyzed.

As an official in charge of agriculture, his evaluation is naturally the most authoritative.

"With this Quyuanli, I will definitely be able to open up more wasteland and harvest more grain.

King An is really my lucky king. "

Emperor Qian was overjoyed.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for getting this divine plow!"

All the courtiers cupped their hands in congratulations.

Seeing that Emperor Qian turned his anger into joy, the officials were about to breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that today's affairs in the main hall had been diluted by this happy event, Emperor Qian suddenly shouted:

"But! Just now someone listed the three major crimes committed by King An!

Han Yeqin!Let me ask you, if Quyuanli is promoted in Xingzhou, do you still think that the spring plowing in Xingzhou will be delayed! "

Han Yeqin fell to his knees on the ground with a plop when he heard Emperor Qian call him out and question him.

"The minister is guilty."

At this moment, he has accepted his fate.

No matter how much he quibbles, he also knows that if Quyuanli is popularized in Xingzhou, it can definitely make up for the shortage of tens of thousands of people, and the impact on spring plowing will be minimal.

Of the three crimes counted by King An just now, the first two have been dismissed. As for the third so-called seventh-rank official's contempt for Zhizhou, there is no need to mention it.

There is no evidence for this matter. Putting aside the previous two major crimes, bringing up this matter separately at this moment, even if it is confirmed, it is irrelevant to a vassal king.

"The magistrate of Guangyang Prefecture and the officials jointly framed the prince in a blood letter, and the magistrate of Xingzhou Prefecture failed to manage the state government effectively. The dismissal of these two people will never be used.

Officials of the seventh rank and above in Guangyang Prefecture will be fined for one year.

As the imperial censor, Han Yeqin was catching wind and shadows, fined his salary for one year, and lowered his salary by two ranks. "

Emperor Qian waved his hand and said to the Ministry of Officials.

"And you! In the future, don't listen to one side and believe the other side, and just rely on a so-called blood letter to doubt the prince at will."

Emperor Qian cast a vague glance at the prince and the officials behind him.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Although they were not punished, Emperor Qian's eyes still made everyone terrified.

"Wu Aiqing, you are responsible for promoting Quyuanli across the country, and it must be fully promoted before the end of spring plowing.

If money is needed, the household department should also fully cooperate. "

Emperor Qian said to Wu Zuoren and Zheng Kun, Minister of the Household Department.

"Yes."

The crown prince stood aside without saying a word, feeling a little more afraid of Li Su in his heart.

Chapter 40

Lingnan, Prince An's Mansion.

Li Su was naturally ignorant of what happened in the capital.

At this time, he was listening to the report of his subordinates in the conference hall.

"The population of Lingnan Mansion has increased so much all of a sudden, and the pressure of labor shortage has been relieved a lot. Your Highness's move is really wise."

Cao Youde flattered him.

"It's just that I'm afraid that in the near future, these immigrants will rush to enter the city. At that time, I'm afraid the city may not be able to accommodate so many people living at the same time."

Cao Youde added.

"That's right, and because there are too many children entering school recently, and there are even many adults attending classes, the elementary school is a bit crowded."

Wei Yangxian, who is in charge of education in Lingnan Prefecture.

"Recently, there are more and more merchants traveling between Lingnan and the capital. They often have to queue for a long time to enter the city. Although this city gate has been remodeled once, it is still too congested."

"Moreover, many merchants have entered the city, and the inns are full. They can't find a place to stay, so they have to squeeze together with the buddies."

Liu Lindao, who is in charge of business.

Li Su sat at the top and listened carefully to the reports of the people below.

Although the city of Lingnan Prefecture had a small population back then, including the outskirts, the population was only 5, but it was actually built according to the standards of a city, so it cannot be regarded as a small area.

But as more and more merchants and common people enter the city, it is indeed difficult to meet the current needs.

Li Su pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, stood up and walked to a map of Lingnan Prefecture.

"In that case, let's just expand the city."

Li Su drew a circle on the map with his hand.

"It should be enough to advance two kilometers north, south, and east along the current city wall."

Li Su continued.

"In addition, re-plan the layout of Fucheng, this area is designated as an industrial area, and this area is a living area.

To vacate a place here to rebuild the school, it is required to accommodate 5000 students at the same time. "

"The demolition that should be demolished, the repair that should be repaired, the reconstruction that should be rebuilt, and strive to build the city well this time..."

Li Su made arrangements one by one.

Seeing that Li Su only looked at the map a few times, and then casually pointed out all the future city plans, everyone was amazed.

All the officials here are in high positions in Lingnan Mansion, so they naturally have good eyesight.

Wang An seems to be pointing fingers casually, but when he thinks about it carefully, the planning of every place is just right and has its own reason.

It is completely considering the convenience of transportation and the distance of various places, and even reserved possible changes in the future.

Although everyone was used to the ability that Wang An displayed at every turn, they still couldn't help but think, is there really someone who is born to know?

"There is at least half a month before the end of spring plowing. We may not have enough manpower now."

Cao Youde mentioned the current problem.
