Li Shimin

On the side, there were two personal guards who followed silently.

Seeing this, Zheng Fu ignored it.

Afterwards, half of the guards were ordered and began to take their seats.

The remaining half of the guards are on guard everywhere.

Originally, there were still some diners who wanted to come to the hot pot shop to eat hot pot, but they were surprised to be able to enter the door of the hot pot shop.

Looking around, the entire hot pot shop was already full, and all of them were soldiers.

Immediately, the diners turned their heads and left.

Third floor!

Seeing the situation below through the glass window, Li Shimin couldn't help giving Li Xuan a weird look.

"I didn't expect Saburo to have such a playful side!"

"My own shop, how can I be regarded as a dude if I book it out by myself? Besides, I will pay back the money!"

Li Xuan chuckled and looked into the distance.

From a distance, he could see Li Chengqian, Wang Xuance, and the Weinan county lieutenant and magistrate walking towards the hot pot shop.

"Your Majesty need not worry about Gao Ming's prestige in Weinan County!"

"It's just a small county. If the dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty can't manage it well, I will waste all these years teaching him!"

Li Shimin snorted softly, but his eyes were full of smiles, obviously very satisfied with Li Chengqian's administration.

After a while.

Li Chengqian led a group of people into the hot pot shop.

Seeing that the whole hot pot shop was full of soldiers, Li Chengqian, Wang Xuance and others smiled wryly, their wife is really bold!

As for Liu Yuanchu and Liu Ding, they were startled, then smiled shyly, and bowed their hands to Li Chengqian.

Afterwards, he bid farewell wisely and left.

In this regard, Li Chengqian did not hold back, and directly walked up with Wang Xuance and others.

"I have seen Aye, I have seen my wife! I have seen all my uncles!"

"I have seen His Majesty, I have seen Master, I have seen Aye..."

After some greetings, Li Chengqian, Wang Xuance and others stood aside respectfully.

"Have all the potholes been blasted?"

Li Shimin asked directly.

"Back to Aye, there are 67 villages in total, and the boy has blown up 33 holes that can be used to dig ditches. 66 bombs were used, and 34 bombs are left for backup!"

Li Chengqian reported respectfully.

"In such severe cold weather, how long can these ordinary people dig a ditch in a day? How long will it take in total to dig this ditch?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly and asked again.

"Reporting to Aye, the people dug the ditch for 120 steps in the morning, and it is estimated that they can dig the ditch for [-] steps a day! And the fields of the people are far or near from the Weihe River, the farthest can reach ten miles, and the closest one is one mile!"

Li Chengqian reported again: "In addition, therefore, to dig all the ditches, I think it will take at least three months."

"It's just that I'm not satisfied with just the ditches dug. I want to wait until the spring of next year, when the weather is warm and the river water is about to thaw, to put cement on these ditches, so that these ditches will not collapse and can be used for a hundred years!"

"120 steps a day?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others had a flash of astonishment in their eyes, and then they looked at Li Chengqian suspiciously.

"Gao Ming, I remember that in the past, when the weather was hot, those peasants dug ditches, and they only dug more than 100 steps a day. Why are these ordinary people digging faster now that it is cold winter and the ground is stiff?"

"Reporting to Aye, this kind of weird thing, the child is extremely incomprehensible!"

Li Chengqian was amazed, "However, the strong men in Weinan County, especially the young men, seem to be crazy and don't rest for a moment. The young men who dig the ditches are getting tired, so the young men who are following behind They take their place.

And these young men who were replaced did not go to rest. Instead, they climbed up and transported the soil. The whole morning, these young men did not rest in one breath! "

Hearing this, Li Xuan frowned slightly, "The labor force is too great, you need to order these young and strong people not to work so hard, or they will easily have health problems."

"Especially in this kind of severe cold weather, you can't ruin your body like this. You have to find a few doctors to go to the construction site and look at the bodies of these young and strong people at any time. They can work, but they can't work so hard, or they will be like this." After three months, I will really die!"

"Thank you, master, for reminding me!"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's heart tightened, and he said hastily.

Under Li Xuan's ears and eyes, Li Chengqian also had a deep understanding of the importance of the common people.

"Tomorrow, Gao Ming will send people to recruit five doctors from Weinan County, and go to the riverside to show the young and strong people all the time!"

"good!"

Li Xuan nodded slowly, "However, in Weinan County, can you find five doctors who have been trained as teachers? If you can't find them, you can go to Doctor Sun to borrow them. In the past few years, the medical school should have cultivated hundreds of them." The doctor is here!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Li Chengqian bowed his hands gratefully again.

Li Xuan nodded slightly, then looked towards the door.

Zheng Fu and several personal guards walked in with rows of sliced ​​meat and vegetables.

Soon, bursts of tempting aromas wafted from the entire hot pot shop.

On the way, many wealthy businessmen and some family members in Weinan County subconsciously walked towards the hot pot shop, their stomachs growled when they were tempted by the scent.

However, after entering, seeing the dense crowd of soldiers and generals, these people from aristocratic families and wealthy businessmen all came out with dark faces.

……

"Aye, it's getting late, why don't you stay overnight at Hai'er's house and return to Chang'an tomorrow!"

A hot pot meal can be eaten until Shenshi in the afternoon.

During this period, Li Shimin should understand and explain everything clearly.

As for Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, they also explained to Fang Yizhi and Changsun Chong for a while.

"Your little Weinan county government can have so many personal guards?"

Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian with some contempt, and said directly: "I will go out of the city and stay overnight in the Thunder Army camp. Not only is it safe, but it is also full of concrete houses!"

Li Chengqian was silent, his small Weinan county office really couldn't accommodate so many people like Li Shimin.

"Hmph, rebellious son!"

I don't know what to think of, Li Shimin's face darkened, "You left the pregnant concubine in the East Palace, and didn't go back to see each other for two months. What do you want to do?"

"Aye, the Weinan county government office is dilapidated, and the princess is still pregnant. It is best for her to stay in the East Palace!"

Li Chengqian hastily smiled flatteringly.

Li Shimin didn't pay attention, but just let out a cold snort.

"This time, I'm here to warn you. If you don't return to Chang'an to see the Crown Princess for another month, then it's not I who came to urge you, but your mother!"

After finishing speaking, he went directly outside.

Behind him, Li Chengqian was shocked.

After reacting, he quickly walked out with Wang Xuance and others, and bowed his hands to Li Shimin's motorcade.

"Baby send Aye off!"

……

As Li Shimin said, at night Li Shimin, Li Xuan and others stayed in the Thunder Army camp again.

After waking up the next morning.

Li Shimin took Li Xuan and others, and set off again, heading for Chang'an.

As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he cannot leave the Tai Chi Palace for too long.

When passing through Xinfeng County, Li Shimin saw a passing carriage and his expression froze.

"parking!"

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

Li Wei rode over and asked.

"Did I pass a carriage just now, and it still has the sign of Ying Guogong?" Li Shimin asked.

Ying Guogong's warrior Xun does not have significant power in the court, but he is one of the most trusted ministers of the two founding emperors of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin and Li Yuan.

In the early days, the warrior Xun was a wealthy businessman, but he funded Li Yuan with a large amount of armor, and followed Li Shimin to pacify Chang'an. He was one of the heroes of Taiyuan Yuanmou in the Tang Dynasty.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he successively guarded Yuzhou, Lizhou and Jingzhou for the Tang Dynasty, but died in Jingzhou in May of the ninth year of Zhenguan, which made Li Shimin, Li Yuan and others very sad.

Now, on the road, when he came across a family scroll suspected of being a samurai, Li Shimin naturally wanted to ask about it!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, we did pass a carriage just now, and it was hung with the sign of Duke Ying. However, the carriage is old and the horses are thin and weak. The people in the carriage should not be important people in Duke Ying's mansion!"

Li Wei also knew the status of Ying Guogong's warrior Xun in Li Shimin's heart, so he said quickly.

"I just saw through the glass that there is a female scroll on the carriage. Go and check it out. Do you need my help?"

Li Shimin said directly.

Li Wei thought in his heart, and quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Immediately, he rode his horse back directly.

"I don't know why the general stopped the little old man, what's the matter?"

The driver was an old man who could fall to the ground if he touched it. When he saw Li Wei coming alone, a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Li Wei ignored the old man's vigilance, but asked directly: "Is Ying Guogong's house in the car?"

"I don't know who this general is?"

The old man's expression was even more vigilant, and he secretly touched the inside of the car with his hand.

"My lord had a very good relationship with Ying Guogong before he was alive. When he passed by just now, he saw that the carriage was dilapidated and there were women's papers in it, so my lord sent me here to ask, is there any need for my help? "

Li Wei didn't seem to notice the small movements of the coachman, so he said slowly.

Just as the old man driving the car was about to reply, a woman's voice came from inside the car: "Thank you, General, I am indeed the surviving wife of the duke of the state, and I am going back to live in Chang'an this time!"

"It turned out to be Madam face to face, the end will be rude!"

Hearing this, Li Wei was startled, saluted the carriage respectfully, and hurriedly rode to the side of Li Shimin's carriage.

"My lord, the carriage is indeed the home of Duke Ying!"

Hearing this, a figure appeared in Li Xuan's mind, and he shuddered.

"Why is Xuanba trembling, but he suffered from the wind and cold yesterday?" Li Shimin asked with concern.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, I'm fine!"

Li Xuan smiled and also looked at Li Wei.

"Dignified Duke Juan, how could he ride in such a dilapidated carriage like this? Moreover, there is not even a single guard?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly, and looked at Li Wei with doubts on his face.

Indeed, no matter what Ying Guogong's warrior Xun said, he was one of the heroes of the Great Tang Dynasty and Yuanmou. The power is not to say that it is overwhelming, but it is not far behind.It shouldn't be so shabby for a country official to go out on a trip!

Chapter 840 My king, Li Xuanba!

"Forgive me, my lord. The inside of the car is the official file of Ying Guo, so I dare not be presumptuous in the end!"

Li Wei quickly explained.

"It's okay, tell them, you can follow me back to Chang'an after waiting for the convoy!"

Li Shimin's eyes flickered, he waved his hand, but didn't go into it.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Wei responded quickly, and then quickly left for the convoy not far away.

Meanwhile, the convoy continued on its way.
