The road to the emperor begins with farming

Seeing Luo Yu coming in, He Weixi asked with bright eyes, "How about it, when is your father-in-law going to promise me your sister?"

"My father said that he will marry my brother a wife." Luo Yu's guilt only paused for two seconds before disappearing without a trace, and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, my brother will get married soon."

He Weixi gossiped, "Which lady is General Luo marrying?"

Luo Yu: "Follow me!"

He Weixi: "..."

So Luo Yu told the story about him and his brother again.

When the news came that Emperor Hongyou bestowed marriage on Luo Yu and Luo Zhan, King Yan and King Qi became more active.

Originally, Yunci was made the queen, and Luo Yu became the son of the eldest son. King Yan and King Qi thought to themselves that their father must be planning to pass the throne to Luo Yu.Although unwilling but helpless.

But the imperial decree of bestowing marriage clearly showed that Emperor Hongyou didn't have that idea, after all, no emperor would marry a man.Of course, Emperor Hongyou will not talk about it, but he still had a regular wife and gave birth to several sons.With an heir, the courtiers don't care much about whether your wife is a man or a woman.

Luo Yu is different, he will definitely not have a son when he marries Luo Zhan, so is it possible that he will have to accept a few more side concubines?Judging from the posture of the two men, it seems that there is no such thing.But how can an emperor have no heir?

They had heard about the events back then, and knew that Luo Yu was born in Yunci.But they didn't know about the Moon Clan, they only thought that Yunci had a special physique and could conceive a prince as a man, but they didn't know that Luo Yu was also capable of giving birth.

Could it be...their father didn't intend to pass the throne to Luo Yu?Maybe they could do something more.

Not to mention the two people's plans, but to say that Luo Yu received the imperial decree and began to prepare for the wedding happily.In fact, King Rui had his own wedding, and people from the Ministry of Etiquette and Qin Tianjian helped Zhang Luo, so Luo Yu really didn't have much to worry about.

His Prince Rui's mansion has been repaired long ago, and there are pavilions, towers, pavilions, rockery and strange rocks, and there is nothing wrong with it.Emperor Hongyou gave a lot of good things, which were quite luxuriously arranged.

Originally, Luo Yu wanted to give this Prince Rui Mansion to He Weixi and his sister, but where is He Weixi's grade? Prince Rui's Mansion was built according to the prince's grade, which was not in compliance with the rules.

Fortunately, Emperor Hongyou has another unique mansion, and plans to give it to He Weixi after Luo Yu and Luo Zhan get married.At the same time, Emperor Hongyou also decreed that Luo Yanran be the princess of Duanfu. He should have given a princess mansion. Considering that He Weixi's father lived in the princess mansion, which might cast a shadow on He Weixi, he simply gave him the mansion.

Luo Yu married, because both of them are men, it is hard to say that Luo Zhan will marry him, and it is even more impossible for His Royal Highness King Rui to marry Luo Zhan.It's not like Emperor Hongyou and Yun Ci, one emperor and one empress, there are regulations there, but the people in the Ministry of Rites are worried.

In the end, they had no choice but to do nothing about the marriage, and there was no such thing as welcoming the relatives. After going through a formality, they finally managed to make do with their marriage.

On the night of their wedding, the two became popular all night long.

On the second day, the newly married couple should enter the palace to pay their respects as usual.

Luo Yu thought it was just a routine and he would be back soon, so he changed clothes indiscriminately, didn't even eat breakfast, and went into the palace with his brother in a carriage.Then, this day did not come out.

Without him, this winter is extremely cold, and many cattle and sheep of the Heyan tribe froze to death, so Dayin's idea was decided.Coupled with King Cheng's deliberate instigation, Heyan Khan ordered the little prince Bolei to lead an army to raid the border town of Great Yin.Fortunately, Zhao Zhongping, the general guarding the city, had taken precautions, and Bolei's army did not succeed.

Emperor Hongyou was already dissatisfied with Heyan, and also wanted to test the power of the guns and cannons made by Luo Yu, so he planned to draw 1 people from the Fifth Army Battalion and send Luo Zhan to support Zhao Zhongping.One is that Luo Zhan has already asked for orders to go to the frontier; the other is that he has been in the Fifth Army Battalion, and he is more familiar with fire, guns and artillery than others, so he is the most suitable candidate.

When Luo Yu heard this, he felt a little bit blaming the emperor's father for sending his son-in-law to the battlefield just after he got married, which is inhumane.

Dissatisfaction belongs to dissatisfaction, and everyone can defend their home and country, so they can't be stopped.Luo Yu then asked for orders to go with his brother, he was really worried that his brother was alone, a sword has no eyes on the battlefield.

Emperor Hongyou said: "Don't be in a hurry, I have more important things for you."

Luo Yu was dissatisfied, "What could be more important than me following my brother?"

Emperor Hongyou was about to be defeated by this rebellious son, resisting the urge to slap him, and said after a while: "It is said that the soldiers and horses go before the food and grass are moved, so you will be responsible for escorting the food and grass, so that no one will be delayed. Besides, Don’t you still have room, maybe it can be of great use at critical moments, so don’t waste it. Let A Zhan go first with the army, and you will be his backup.”

Luo Yu thought about it too, if someone made a mess and deliberately arrived late or even missed the escort, it would be miserable for the soldiers under his brother to have no food to eat, so he immediately agreed.

Luo Yu knew that the soldiers during the war were very difficult, and he, the food security officer, had to think of ways to make them eat better, and he must not let them bleed and not have enough to eat.

well!Time is still too tight. If his state-owned department earns more money, the border guards will be better off.

It would be great if he could transport modern food to ancient times, but the golden finger is not big enough.

On the way back, Luo Yu asked, "Brother, what did the soldiers eat during the war?" Although he knew they were suffering, he didn't know exactly what they ate.

Luo Zhan sighed and said: "Ordinary soldiers' food is usually filled with corn, wheat, sorghum, etc. into a long cloth bag. When starting a team, each person grabs a handful and puts it in a big pot to cook. Raw chewing. The folks mainly use wheat rice, simply smash the wheat kernels, and steam them with bran like steamed rice. The food of the cavalry is slightly better, and the general’s food is needless to say.”

Luo Yu wiped his face after listening, "It's too miserable."

"The main reason is that food is not easy to preserve." Luo Zhan continued, "The food transport troops mainly transport wheat, corn, and sorghum. They also need to bring millstones to prevent moisture. Only in dry weather can they bring flour and dried meat."

Luo Yu nodded, and when he returned to the palace, he began to look up information on the Internet to see how to improve the existing problems.

Not to mention, he really found a good way to solve the problem of eating for the army, and that is to make noodles, which is the earliest instant noodles.

It was invented by Han Xin, Hou Huaiyin.As a meal for marching and fighting, the noodles are strong, thick and gluten, chewy in the mouth, hungry in the stomach, and convenient to store.

The making of noodles is to mix [-]% of buckwheat noodles and [-]% of wheat noodles. The method is a bit like spreading pancakes. The cooked pancakes are laid out one by one to cool, and then cut into noodles of equal width and thickness. When eating, put them in boiling water. Just roll it in the pot.However, Luo Yu added another process, which was frying in an oil pan, so that the soldiers could also have some oil and water, and they could also add wild vegetables they dug up or mushrooms they picked.

Due to time constraints, Luo Yu hired a lot of temporary workers, and each of them was in charge of a job, some of them spread the pancakes, some cut the noodles, some fried them in a pan, and some packed them.Everyone worked overtime, because they saved up a lot of places before Luo Zhan's expedition, and asked each soldier to bring a big bag, and the rest were also loaded into the car.

Of course, after finishing this batch, Luo Yu didn't let them stop. He had to continue to do it. When he left, he had to bring another batch. The more the better.

Fortunately, the State-owned Ministry has made money in the past two years, and the treasury is not so tight, otherwise he would really have no money to fry.

On the eve of the expedition, Luo Yu didn't dare to make trouble with his brother, even if Luo Zhan thought about it, he held back and said for the first time, "Don't make trouble, just sleep."

Luo Zhan was about to leave, and he didn't know how long it would take to see him, so they were willing to let him go, and it was the first time they had seen Luo Yu rejecting his courtship for his brother's sake, and Luo Zhan was chasing after him.Anyway, in the end it was all that, but fortunately, it only came once, which made Luo Zhan quite dissatisfied.

The two got up before dawn. Luo Yu helped his brother put on the golden crown and battle armor, while nagging him to pay attention to safety, and to carry the musket with him, and he would pass by soon.Luo Zhan also responded one by one.

After tidying up, Luo Yu wanted to pull him to the bed and do something like seeing his old Gong so majestic, but fortunately he finally regained his sanity.

Outside the city, Luo Zhan led the generals to bid farewell to Emperor Hongyou. Luo Yu said everything that should be said. Anyway, the two would meet soon, and they stood quietly beside the emperor's father.

As the army marched out, the sound of horseshoes gradually faded away, and a cloud of dust was raised.Seeing that there was no one to be seen, Luo Yu urged: "Father, let's go back quickly."

Emperor Hongyou was a little surprised, "Why is Yu'er so anxious?"

Luo Yu said: "I have to go back quickly to prepare food and grass, so that I can send it to my brother."

Although Luo Zhan brought a batch of food with him when he left, it is reasonable to say that Luo Yu is not in a hurry, but he wanted to see his brother sooner, so he urged him to get ready for the road.

Emperor Hongyou: "..." Just get used to the water splashed by the married son.
