The feudal lord is on Taobao every day

King Qi rushed to Mozhou in a hurry, and Xie Jingan also returned to Mozhou in a hurry. However, unlike the worried mood when he went to Pingzhou, Xie Jingan came back this time very complacent, even high-spirited. After all, he has the largest development of the fief The obstacle has been removed, and such a great contribution has been made. If you treat him well, the position of the vassal king is stable. As long as he doesn't die and wants to rebel and usurp the throne, he is destined to live in peace and stability.

Xie Jingan didn’t bring many people with him when he went to Pingzhou, but there were many when he came back. Apart from Lin Yan, there were also people from Team Xu who were waiting to go to Pingzhou with Lin Yan to support them. They were exhausted, but everyone was in good spirits, especially Lin Yan, who used to look indifferent and disinterested in everything, but now showed a faint smile from time to time, obviously in a good mood.

When we returned to Mozhou, the city gates of Mozhou were wide open, and all the officials of the palace, Mozhou officials, and merchants from aristocratic families came out to welcome them, and there were also many common people lining the road to welcome them. The scene was very lively, Xie Jingan even saw a few dragon and lion dancers The team, if there are no fireworks in this era, I'm afraid they would have lit it up long ago.

Mozhou City is not big, and the journey from the city gate to the palace is only a stick of incense. This day, Xie Jingan forced himself to walk for two hours. After returning to the palace, he didn't ask about the fiefdom first, but took a good shower After changing into comfortable clothes, he went to the study and sat down.

Xu Dui was waiting for everyone to go home to rest, only Lin Yan followed him back to the palace, and at this time he also washed up and waited outside the study room. As soon as he saw Xie Jingan, he immediately joined Wei Changshi, Liu Zhubo and others Into the study.

Except for the few people he usually used, Mr. Xu from the equipment department, Mr. Yu from the newspaper office, Jiang Zheng and others all came, and the study, which was originally small, was suddenly crowded to the brim.

Many of them hadn't seen Xie Jingan for many days, and now they finally had a backbone when Xie Jingan came back, they were all very excited, and when they saw Xie Jingan, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Xie Jing'an has always been a person who doesn't like politeness, he waved his hand to stop their politeness, asked his servants to bring chairs for them to sit down, served tea and snacks, and then said with a smile: "The king has not been in Mozhou for many days, just If you are afraid that the affairs of the fief will pile up like a mountain, don't waste your time getting stuck on these vain rituals, and tell this king quickly, will everything go well during the days when this king is away?"

Wei Changshi followed Xie Jingan to Pingzhou, so Liu Zhubo was always in charge these days, when Xie Jingan's voice fell, everyone's eyes fell on Liu Zhubo.

Liu Zhubo was much thinner than before Xie Jingan left. He didn't have much flesh on his body, but now he looked even thinner, and his official robes seemed empty. He stood up and bowed to Xie Jingan, and waited for Xie Jingan to let him sit down. After finishing speaking, he sat down, considered his sentence, and said slowly: "These days when Your Highness went to Pingzhou, everything went smoothly, but compared with the people who came to recruit workers and merchants who joined the chamber of commerce a while ago, there were a lot less. It’s just that the cement road has received a lot of resistance from the passing carriages. I heard that many aristocratic families are discussing impeachment. Your Highness needs to make preparations earlier.”

As soon as Xie Jingan heard about the aristocratic family, Xie Jingan's good mood immediately faded, his brows were also furrowed, and his expression was quite impatient. He got down, stretched out his hand and rubbed his brows, and said lightly: "There is a war in Pingzhou, and it is everyone's instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil. It is also reasonable that many people and merchants who came to recruit workers are missing. The number of people who come after the good news is reported back to Chang'an will not decrease but increase. As for the cement road, we will follow the original regulations. If those aristocratic families want to be impeached, let them impeach them. Everyone will be happy to cooperate with the king to make money Very, once the money is paid, it’s like killing them, so it doesn’t matter if those who can’t get in don’t cooperate, now there are more people who want to join the chamber of commerce, how many of them does this king care about?”

This is really blunt, but it is also true for Xie Jingan now. He is not short of money, nor is he short of ways to make money. Although his reputation is not good, when the news of Pingzhou's big victory spreads , there must be some changes, the worst thing about him is manpower, but when the prisoners of Jai Heo arrive, this problem will be solved temporarily, so Xie Jingan really doesn't care about them.

Master Liu also thought the same thing, but he was a little worried, hesitatingly said: "Naturally there is nothing to worry about from a few aristocratic families, but I'm afraid that other aristocratic families will follow suit. At that time..."

Master Liu didn't finish his words, but Xie Jingan understood what he meant, so his mood became even worse, but this matter can't be resolved in a short while, Xie Jingan pondered for a while, decided to put it aside for now, waved his hand and said : "I'll discuss this matter later, let's talk about other things first, how is the workshop going? Is the spring plowing going smoothly? How is the training of the new army? Have you discovered any new mines? And those orphans, my lord Have any troubles happened these days when you're not here?"

Xie Jing'an asked a lot of questions in one breath, Liu Zhubo, who asked directly, didn't have the heart to think about impeachment, and hurriedly replied: "Returning to Your Highness, the matter of the workshop is very smooth with the help of Mr. Xu from the Equipment Department, Your Highness Most of the workshops that were ordered to be built before going to Pingzhou have been built, and the rest were only ordered in these days, and there are still a lot of them. Trees need to be felled and the ground must be leveled, and it will take some days to be completed. "

After talking about the workshop, Liu Zhubo didn't wait to breathe a sigh of relief, and then continued: "Spring plowing is also very smooth, there is a waterwheel built by His Highness by the river, and the common people don't need to carry water by themselves, which not only saves a lot of energy, but also saves time. It saves a lot of time. Furthermore, although not every household has the farm cattle prepared by His Highness, it can be shared among a few households. In addition, the plow that His Highness ordered to make can completely plow the ground thoroughly. , There is still time left to reclaim new fields, but the people are afraid to accept the new food that His Highness asked to try, for fear that they will not take care of the autumn harvest and the food will not be available. So far, only the people of Shuixi Village have planted it. "

Hearing that it was about the new food, Xie Jing'an immediately cheered up, sat upright, and asked, "How many acres have been planted in total? How many new food seedlings are left?"

After a winter of Liu Zhubo's cultivation, the warehouse has long been full of potatoes, and Xie Jingan buys some from Taobao from time to time to add in. Although it is not possible to plant thousands of acres, one or two thousand acres is still enough. He just waited for the output in the autumn harvest to surprise people, and then vigorously promoted it to solve the problem of food shortage in one fell swoop, so he was naturally very concerned.

Liu Zhubo obviously knew this, and he didn't dare to be negligent when he heard the words, and immediately said: "If you go back to Your Highness, there is not much land in Xishui Village, even if you return all the land occupied by the Liu family, it will be less than a hundred or less than a thousand acres. The rest of the seedlings are naturally left over, and Weichen and his people roughly figured out that there are still more than a thousand mu to be planted."

With so much left, Xie Jingan frowned, and wanted to force the people to plant it, but he held back his words. After all, he knew the yield of potatoes, but the people didn't know, so it's natural to have doubts However, these potatoes can't be left in vain. Xie Jingan thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Cui Tong who was standing aside, and said, "You can go to Director Qin and ask me how many fields are there in Huangzhuang. Have you planted something? If not, tell him to have the potatoes planted."

Cui Tong responded and went down to run an errand, Wei Changshi suddenly said: "Why do you need to ask Director Qin about such trivial matters, I know very well, if your Highness has not asked someone to open up a new field these days when I am away, then Your Highness has a total land of about More than fifty acres, even if all of these are planted with that new food, it is far from enough."

It was the first time Xie Jingan knew that he only had such a small amount of land. No wonder the entire palace was so poor when he first crossed over. Although money is a good thing, in this era, for a feudal lord like him, food is more practical. So Xie Jingan thought for a while, then turned to look at Liu Zhubo, and asked, "You just said that after the spring plowing, there is still some time left to reclaim the wasteland? But is it true?"

Liu Zhubo said: "If you return to Your Highness, it is naturally true."

Xie Jing'an nodded, and said: "That's how it is. This king arranged for Director Qin to buy these barren fields from the common people. The barren fields have just been reclaimed and there is nothing to grow. It will take a year or two to get rich and fertile soil. But for Xin Shi But there is no such trouble, this king bought it with real money, I believe those common people will not refuse."

After this matter was settled, they briefly discussed other affairs in the fief, and after having dinner together, Xie Jingan excused being tired and drove everyone back, leaving only Lin Yan in the study to discuss matters.

Wei Changshi was a little surprised by this, but the others were quite used to it, and they left the study consciously without Xie Jing'an saying anything.

Lin Yan originally thought that Xie Jingan stayed with him to express his affection and have some intimacy, and only those who didn't want to go out would close the door. Before he could decide what to say, Xie Jingan said with anger and excitement. : "Lin Yan, do you think that if I turn up and ask to go back to Chang'an at this time, will my father agree?"

Xie Jingan wants to return to Chang'an?Lin Yan obviously didn't expect it, so he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, hesitatingly said: "This time the great victory in Pingzhou, and the recapture of the Tanping Pass that has been lost for many years, such a great contribution, even if you want to reward His Majesty, you will not refuse. It’s just why are you returning to Chang’an at this time? You have only been in Pingzhou for half a month, and the fief has accumulated so many affairs, and Chang’an is thousands of miles away from Mozhou. If you go back and forth for a few months, you are not afraid of Master Liu. Is Bo waiting for the officials of the royal family to get sick?"

Xie Jingan also knew that he was a prince. At this time, returning to Changan was a bit willful, but he wanted to be angry with the officials who had a vegetarian meal. When they thought they would celebrate the conditions of the general promise of the mandibular pupa, Xie Jingan would use Kang An. He was so angry that he couldn't swallow his breath, he patted the table angrily and said, "Why did you go back to Chang'an? Naturally, I asked someone to settle the score. Kang'an was only eight years old and they had the heart to let her go for a kiss. Of course, I also had the heart to beat them up." Kang An and I vent our anger, and I don't even plan to let the prince off, at worst, I will be reprimanded by the emperor, as long as my fief is not taken away, I am not afraid of anything."

Lin Yan never thought that it would be because of this reason, and he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. After getting along with Xie Jingan these days, he always thought that those rumors in the past were just rumors, but now he somewhat believed them, and shook his head laughingly. Said: "You just left the fief affairs and ran back to Chang'an for thousands of miles? Are you not afraid that Wei Changshi and Liu Zhubo will say that you are acting absurdly and out of order? Besides, there are so many ministers in the court who agree with Princess Kang'an's marriage. You can't beat them one by one, not to mention that the crown prince is the crown prince, you can just hit other ministers, but if you touch the crown prince, I'm afraid His Majesty will not let you off lightly even if you make such a great contribution."

"As long as I don't take back my fiefdom, everything else is fine." Xie Jingan waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Besides, I'm just giving a small lesson, and I don't want to break their arms and legs. Father won't make it too difficult for me." .”

That's what he said, but in fact Xie Jingan didn't have a clue in his heart. On the way back to Pingzhou, he also thought that it would not be too late to take revenge on a gentleman in ten years, so it's better to forget about it first and take revenge later.

It's just that he is not a person who can endure hardships. If he is really not allowed to take revenge, I am afraid that he will have to hold his breath for several months, and he may suffer from some kind of illness. Therefore, for the sake of his own health, he is not a gentleman. , Xie Jingan decided that he should take revenge as a villain, and torture those pious courtiers from morning till night.
