Li Shimin

Li Chengqian and Cheng Chusi looked at Xue Rengui quickly.

"Master, the villagers of Qinghe Village and Dashi Village should be fighting over the irrigation of the fields in the coming year!" Xue Rengui said.

"Watering the fields?"

Li Chengqian and Cheng Chusi couldn't help but look suspicious.

"Ren Gui, there is still more than half a month before spring plowing. Moreover, even if it is watering the fields, it must be in summer, and there are three or four months. Now, it is too early to start planting, isn't it?"

"Da Lang, Chu Si, you have never been in the village, so you don't understand the importance of a river to a village's fields."

Xue Rengui sighed slightly, and explained: "The villagers in those villages rely on the grain in those fields for a year's rations. Every year, droughts often occur, so these villagers pay great attention to storing rainwater.

As for the river next to the village, these villagers guarded the river tightly and did not allow anyone to move it.

If there is a drought in the coming year, the people in their entire village will depend on that river if they want to survive.

Dashi Village built a dam upstream to store water.

But Qinghe Village downstream has been keeping a close eye on the river for a long time, so Dashi Village upstream is naturally not allowed to tamper with the river! "

"As for why we are fighting now, it is because everyone is wearing thick clothes and all the villagers are very leisurely. It just so happens that fighting will not delay the farming season.

Even if a few of them are disabled, they can rest for a period of time, and when it's time for spring plowing, everyone can still plow..."

Chapter 805 The old man is going to Goguryeo

"..."

After hearing Xue Rengui's words, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others couldn't help but be silent.

Since they were born, their family has been the top group among the nobles of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, their villages are all by the river.

Moreover, the surrounding villages knew their Zhuangzi's background, and they didn't dare to provoke Zhuangzi in their family.

They never thought that those villagers would work so hard for a small river to irrigate their fields?Moreover, half a year in advance, I want to occupy it!

"But third uncle, if we leave like this, won't they start fighting again?"

Suddenly, Li Chengqian remembered something and asked quickly.

"will not!"

Li Xuan replied.

"Why?"

Li Chengqian was puzzled.

"Because those villagers are better at calculating accounts than you. They are the group of people with the least capital in Datang, and they can't even do business that loses money!"

Li Chengqian: "..."

Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and the others also followed behind, with expressions of contemplation on their faces.

After returning to the convoy, a group of servants and guards had already packed up their affairs.

Li Xuan took Li Chenglu, got into the carriage directly, and continued on the way.

From Chang'an City to Liangzhou, from Liangzhou to Taiyuan, and then to Qingzhou.

Along the way, Li Chengqian saw all kinds of folk things, joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows!

I also saw how those people who did not have a farming ox in the whole village planted grain into the fields!

Even the children of some aristocratic families led a group of servants to oppress the people many times.

For these, Li Xuan often handed over to Li Chengqian to deal with.

Anyway, with a thousand guards around, Li Chengqian represented power.

After dealing with it, Li Xuan then analyzed to Li Chengqian, what he didn't deal with well, and how to deal with it correctly.

Then, Li Yuan taught Li Chengqian.

As for Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda, they didn't have any chance to speak.

The Supreme Emperor personally taught the princes of the Tang Dynasty all the way, what are these princes and officials!

However, Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda started to give up the idea of ​​instilling those Confucian classics in Li Chengqian.

Perhaps the best way to learn is to let His Royal Highness watch the Tang Dynasty in person.

two months later.

Qingzhou.

The shipyard is no longer the small factory that Li Yuan saw a few years ago.

Now, the entire shipyard has directly expanded dozens of times, occupying the 20-mile-long strait, and there are more than [-] concrete houses that are [-] to [-] feet long.

As for the craftsmen inside and the soldiers guarding the shipyard, there are also ten times more.

Yao Cheng, the director of the shipyard, joined the school lieutenant Li Lun, who followed Li Xuan and the others, and introduced the factory buildings one by one.

"Now, how many giant steel ships have been built?"

Li Xuan asked suddenly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, a total of 22 large steel ships have been built so far, and there is another large steel ship with a keel already built!"

The principal, Yao Chengshen, hurriedly reported.

"22 ships?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan's eyes lit up, and he looked directly at Yao Chengshen.

"Where is the fleet?"

"This……"

Hearing this, Yao Chengshen was startled, and subconsciously looked at Li Chengqian who was at the side.

"Ok?"

Li Xuan's expression couldn't help but darken.

"Third uncle, there are only three steel ships in the shipyard now, and the remaining ships have been taken to Linyi by Duke Ju!"

Li Chengqian quickly explained, "Not only is the giant steel ship twice as fast as an ordinary large ship, but it can also carry [-]% more food each time than an ordinary large ship.

Therefore, after the number of large steel ships in the shipyard exceeded six, every time Duke Ju Guo went to Linyi, he would leave three steel ships behind, and the rest of the ships would be taken to transport grain! "

"Moreover, these ships are left empty in the shipyard, which not only wastes the maintenance of craftsmen, but also takes up space.

And Duke Ju took these big ships out, and he could also train a group of sailors who are familiar with steel ships! "

Many important officials in the DPRK knew about these things.

And the only one who doesn't know is probably Li Xuan alone.

"Since it's not there, there's no need to watch it!"

Li Xuan shook his head slowly, not displeased.

Seeing this, both Li Chengqian and Yao Chengcan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, what Li Yuan said next shocked everyone present.

"Xuanba, just came to Qingzhou, so let's go to Goguryeo to have a look."

Looking at the black line on the other side of the sea, Li Yuan was full of longing.

"No!"

Li Xuan shook his head directly.

"Why?" Li Yuan asked with displeasure.

"From Chang'an to Liangzhou, then from Liangzhou to Taiyuan, and then to Qingzhou, the journey is exhausting. Your body will definitely not be able to bear it. You should hurry back to Chang'an to recuperate for a while."

Li Xuan said helplessly.

"The old man's own body and bones, the old man knows it himself, this will be regarded as giving the old man a steel knife, and the old man can go to fight with the Korean hozen. This distance is nothing at all!"

Li Yuan snorted coldly, and stared at Li Xuan angrily: "Could it be possible, you kid still want me to go all the way back to Chang'an, rest for a month, and then come all the way to Qingzhou, and then go to Goguryeo?

Let the old man run more every day! "

Li Xuan: "..."

"Have a rest in Qingzhou for a few days, go and prepare quickly, and then go to Goguryeo!"

Li Yuan directly said with a firm face: "Since in my lifetime, I can defeat Goguryeo and become my Tang Dynasty's vassal state.

The old man has to go to the palace of Goguryeo in person, so that when he dies one day, when he sees Yang Guang, he can tell Yang Guang that the Goguryeo he didn't take down, the old man took down for him, and it will be completely governed by the people of Tang Dynasty ! "

"Ah Weng, Goguryeo is even more difficult than my Tang Dynasty, you should think twice!"

Li Chengqian also quickly persuaded.

"You don't need to say more, I have already made up my mind to go to Goguryeo. If you don't want to go with me, I will go by myself!"

After speaking, Li Yuan went directly to the carriage beside him, not even visiting the shipyard.

"Third Uncle, what should I do?"

Li Chengqian looked helpless.

"The old man is going, can you still tie him up and drag him back to Chang'an?"

Li Xuan was also full of helplessness.

"Go back and report to His Majesty immediately. Then, start preparing the supplies for Goguryeo, and ask the caravan to send more vegetables and fruits.

Then, ask the doctor to check the pulse of the old man, why don't you go these few days, let the old man rest in the house for a few days!

Ugh……"

"This... yes, Third Uncle!"

Now that Li Xuan agreed, Li Chengqian could only follow suit.

Afterwards, all the convoys returned to the courtyard in Qingzhou City.

For the next few days, Li Yuan, Li Xuan and others stayed in Qingzhou City.

Just in time, everyone can have a good rest!

……

Chapter 806 Arriving at Yashan Harbor

During this time.

The governor of Qingzhou, the captain of Qingzhou Zhechong, and the heads of the nearby aristocratic families also learned that the Supreme Emperor came to Qingzhou, all kinds of rare treasures, and pairs of glamorous and unparalleled Goguryeo prostitutes. A large truck was sent to other courtyards.

However, before reaching the door, Xue Rengui was driven back by Li Xuanling because the emperor needed to rest.

Only some medicinal materials can be left behind.

Even the governor of Qingzhou and the captain of Qingzhou Zhechong didn't meet him.

Regarding this, all the officials of the aristocratic family were also helpless.

Five days later.

Under Li Yuan's urging, Li Xuancai took Li Chengqian, Xue Rengui and others, as well as three large steel ships, to Goguryeo.

On the surface of the sea, all kinds of fishing boats are densely scattered all over the surface of the sea like stars.

Among them, there are also fleets of fleets traveling between Koguryo and Qingzhou seaports.

And every ship, seeing Li Xuan and the three big steel ships, hurriedly avoided them.

"I didn't expect that this sea area is so prosperous!"

Li Yuan was full of emotion.

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others were all amazed.

"Ah Weng, when I came here a few years ago, there were only a few small boats here and there in this sea area!"
