Three days later, when the three quarters of the ugly hour were approaching, Li Yu stood in the gazebo filled with charcoal pots and green plants, his expression as calm as possible, as if this day was no different from usual.

It's just that he took out a paper-like thing from his sleeve pocket and spread it in his palm to watch, which betrayed his nervousness.

"His Majesty."

Xiao Yao lifted the curtain and came in to salute. When he looked up, he saw Li Yu hiding the things in his heart behind his back in a panic.

"It's a slave." He explained softly, and then stepped forward to pack up the desk in front of Li Yu.

"He's here?" Li Yu seemed to realize that he hadn't concealed the absurd joy in his tone, he cleared his throat in embarrassment, and pretended to be relaxed, "What are you doing here?"

"Master Bai is here." Xiao Yao continued to move his hands, nodded and said, "This servant is watching from a distance, as if he is holding a pile of things."

Xiao Yao buried his head in packing, but he didn't see the corner of Li Yu's mouth raised up unconsciously, but from the corner of his eyes, he saw the emperor in front of him carefully put the crumpled and dirty ball of paper into his sleeve pocket .

He frowned slightly and sighed where Li Yu couldn't see.

Bai Ou walked to the edge of the gazebo with a stack of rice paper rolls in his hands, and went straight in without seeing Xiao Yao; he was not a well-behaved man in the first place, and now his hands are inconvenient, so he forgot all the etiquette, He just nodded and called out: "Your Majesty."

"Come——" Li Yu put the hand that was hiding something in the sleeve behind his back guiltily, and said softly, "Come..."

Xiao Yao looked at everything from the side, didn't say much, bowed silently and left.

"Learn the music..." Li Yu watched Bai Ou throw all the things he brought on the desk, and said in a low voice, "What are you doing with so many things... Is it... the score?"

"It's a blueprint." Bai Gu "squeaked" and unfolded the blueprint neatly on the desk. He said while he was busy: "You must not understand it. Pick up the important ones and send them to Chen Yu. His subordinates must be capable." People who understand."

"Why is this plow shaft so short..." Li Yu stared at the drawings on the desk seriously, frowned slightly, and whispered, "It's still curved... What is the disc in front of you?"

Bai Guu stopped what he was doing, raised his head in disbelief, and stared at the little emperor seriously, "Can you understand?"

"I don't quite understand..." Li Yu shook his head and traced the pattern on the drawing with his fingertips; A plow is different."

As he spoke, he reached out to touch another roll of blueprints brought by Bai Gu, and asked, "What is this?"

White Ou rested his hands on the desk, looked at the little emperor carefully with his head hooked, and said softly: "The cart."

He was puzzled why Li Yu was different every time he saw it.

"what?"

I don't know if it was because Bai Gu's voice was too soft, or if he really said something that Li Yu didn't understand this time, he raised his head in doubt, and his forehead almost hit Bai Gu's chin.

"You, you... aren't..." He lowered his head in panic, his big eyes rolled around, not knowing where to put it, "Teach, teach me the tune..."

"Your Majesty, do you really understand this?" Bai Gu ignored the little emperor's panic and embarrassment, and repeated his question seriously.

Li Yu raised his head and took a sneak peek at Baiou, and found that the other person was staring at him, then lowered his eyelids anxiously, and whispered, "Part of it."

Raised in a deep palace, not to mention a young emperor like Li Yu, who enthroned as a young emperor, even an ordinary noble prince, it is not uncommon for his limbs to be inactive and his grains to be indistinguishable. Recognize them all?

Bai Gu pretended not to notice Li Yu's small movements, stared at him up and down, and said seriously, "Tell me, Your Majesty."

"Here is the plow shaft of the plow." Li Yu stared at the blueprint seriously as long as he didn't look at the white gull. He pointed at the drawing, "But the plow shafts that are commonly used in Shangning are all straight. , and a bit longer than the picture."

"And here." He pointed to the other end of the pattern, "Our plow does not have this disc at the front end."

Li Yu stared at the blueprint extremely intently, while Bai Ou stared at him seriously.

He suddenly discovered that the little emperor was not only not what he looked like in the history books, but even what he saw with his own eyes never seemed to be all about Li Yu.

"Shortening the shaft of the plow and changing it to a curve will make farming more labor-saving; adding a disc at the front allows the plow to turn freely, which greatly speeds up the speed of plowing the land."

Bai Gu also reached out to demonstrate on the drawing, and his fingertips inadvertently touched Li Yu's, and the slender lotus root white fingertips quickly retracted.

"Why does Your Majesty know this?"

"Ah?" Li Yu held his fingertips in embarrassment and was still listening to Bai Gu's explanation seriously. He didn't expect to be called suddenly. He suddenly raised his head in a daze, and bumped into Bai Gu's staring eyes.

Then he froze in a daze. "The White Gull is asking His Majesty—" The White Gull leaned forward through the desk, "Why do you know this?"

"I..." Sensing the approach of the white gull across a small desk, Li Yu quickly lowered his head, "The south of the Yangtze River is the most important thing, and farming is the foundation of all people..."

"Although I can't personally experience Jiangnan, but—" he said with a soft sigh, "I will still read the books that should be read."

Bai Gull laughed at himself when he heard the words, it turns out——

He really had never seen all of the little emperor.

"The land in Jiangnan is not enough now, and it's too late to open up wasteland." He stood up with folded arms, and stood up straight. "But with this, maybe we can reclaim the wasteland into good farmland that can be planted before the spring planting."

"You—" Li Yu raised his head, his eyes widened with unbelievable joy, "You want to help me?"

"Otherwise?" Bai Gu smiled, "Are you full?"

"But before you..." Li Yu lowered his eyelids awkwardly, "Aren't you angry..."

"Angry?" White Gull tilted his body irregularly, "When?"

"That day..." Li Yu's voice became smaller and smaller, "When you left..."

Before Bai Gu walked out of the woodshed, he hadn't spoken a word to him, or even looked at him.

"That day……"

Bai Gu recalled everything that happened in the woodshed that early morning, feeling a little embarrassed.

At that time, he was stuck in self-righteous multiple-choice questions. He didn't know how to face the little emperor, so he avoided it clumsily; but he never thought that a high-ranking emperor would care so much about the emotions of others.

This made him even more embarrassed.

"Anyway—" he cleared his throat in embarrassment, and said rascally, "I'm not angry..."

Li Yu stared at Bai Ou and spoke, a gleam of light flashed in those big eyes, but it soon dimmed again.
