I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country

Gu Yuanbai forced him to listen to the sweet potato and corn for ten days.

Say it over and over again.Sitting on Xue Yuan's back during the day, talking while he was doing push-ups.Xue Yuan never knew that the Holy Majesty could speak so well, his eyes were dull, and he was out of his mind by the chanting.

Apart from talking, Gu Yuanbai also took him down to the ground.

The cherished food seeds were planted in a heavily guarded area in the palace, and Gu Yuanbai had to visit it every day.He and Xue Yuan stepped on the mud, and their hands and body were also splashed with mud spots, because Xue Yuan has been following Gu Yuanbai's buttocks, and he even has Gu Yuanbai's dragon boots on his face. of mud.

"Go away," Sheng Sheng, who bent over to look at the seedlings, turned his head and gave him a glare, "don't get so close to me."

Xue Yuan unsteadily took a small step back and looked around, "My lord, two of the three plots have sprouted, why is there still no movement at all?"

The smiling Gu Yuanbai brows were stained with worry, he looked at the unmoving field, and sighed, "I guess he's dead."

"What was planted on that field?"

"Potatoes" used the most fertile land and took care of the most meticulous farmers, but they still haven't been planted. "When the seeds reach Daheng, they should have dried up."

Potatoes, no one knows its benefits better than Gu Yuanbai.

He was really uncomfortable, but he looked at the sweet potatoes and corn that had grown seedlings, and smiled again.

Satisfied, it's worth it.

Once sweet potatoes and corn are successful, then Daheng will usher in a big population growth.

Xue Yuan pondered for a while, "It's okay to die, at least..." He said implicitly, "The name 'Tudou' is spread, and the literati have to think about the way the Holy One named it."

Gu Yuanbai: "..."

Do you still have opinions on the name called by the ancestors?

But Gu Yuanbai thought about the kang bed before, and then thought about the name Tudou. If Tudou really survived, if scholars and scholars wanted to write poems praising Tudou, wouldn’t it become "Ode to Tudou" again?

Cough, what should the history books say, Daheng Emperor Gu Yuanbai personally named it the word "Tudou"?

Compared with the elegant style of the first emperor, such names as "Yulang Peak", "Nianhua Porcelain" and "Zaowu Huaxi Furnace", the emperor Gu Yuanbai is really down-to-earth.

It's not bad, it's just that the literati who want to praise the Holy Majesty really have no way to do it.

Gu Yuanbai turned back his gaze nonchalantly, "The name is not important, what is important is its value."

He sighed again, "Once the potatoes can be fed, an acre of land is two or three times that of a millet acre."

In the Tang Dynasty, the average yield per mu of millet was 330 jin, and the Daheng millet land was also at this level. Potatoes are high-yielding crops, and the common planting methods in modern times can also produce thousands of jin per mu. How much can the output be, but Daheng's land is fertile and the weather has been good year after year, so it shouldn't be less than eight or nine hundred catties, right?

Xue Yuan's pupils shrank, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the unmoving potato field, "Two or three times?"

He understood the importance of these potato fields in an instant, but the next moment after he understood, Gu Yuanbai felt the deep disappointment that had just arisen in his heart. Under the joy and sadness, Xue Yuan said stiffly: "My lord, is the seed really dead?"

Gu Yuanbai regretfully said: "It should be dead."

Xue Yuan was speechless, he was so distressed that he couldn't breathe.

"Sweet potatoes and corn have grown seedlings." Gu Yuanbai gently touched the sweet potato seedlings beside him. "These two things are no less than the yield of potatoes."

Xue Yuan felt he could catch his breath again. He looked at these little seedlings cherishingly, and half-smiled, "As soon as the Holy Majesty said this, I know why the Holy Majesty kept talking about them for days. These few seedlings are indeed Much more important than me."

These words are sour.

Gu Yuanbai glanced at him, "Let's go, it's time for lunch."

Xue Yuan followed him, and said slowly: "Your Majesty knows a lot, and I have to learn more from you. Your Majesty, can you give me a kiss?"

Gu Yuanbai walked faster, Xue Yuan saw his back and smiled: "My lord, your back is full of mud."

"It's nothing." Gu Yuanbai frowned, turned his head and glanced back, "I'll clean it up when I get back."

Xue Yuan took his arm, and the two walked behind the hidden tree before Xue Yuan whispered, "I'll wipe it first, a large amount of mud splashed on the waist and buttocks, it's too conspicuous."

Before Gu Yuanbai could say anything, Xue Yuan had already squatted down, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped it carefully.Gu Yuanbai held back expressionlessly for a while, but still couldn't hold back, "Xue Jiuyao!"

Xue Yuan let go of his soft flesh and put away his unruly hands.He stood up without changing his face, and led Gu Yuanbai out from behind the tree, "It's all dried into mud, it's better to go back and take a bath."

Gu Yuanbai snorted softly, "Hands and feet have always been dishonest, but fortunately he became the son of General Xue, otherwise I'm afraid he will become a rascal somewhere."

Xue Yuan couldn't help showing a hidden smile when he heard his special words, "If I'm a rascal, then I'm only a rascal."

Gu Yuanbai said casually: "I'm afraid you won't even be able to see my face."

Xue Yuan frowned, and after a long time, he nodded slowly, "It's thanks to General Xue."

As soon as the two of them returned to the palace, the eunuch from the Hundred Beasts Garden came to report that the two adult wolves that Xue Yuan had given Gu Yuanbai were about to die.

Gu Yuanbai was taken aback for a moment, before he could change his clothes, he followed the eunuch to the Garden of Beasts.Two wolves whose hair was already covered with white gray were lying powerlessly on the ground. As soon as Gu Yuanbai and Xue Yuan approached, they whimpered from their throats, their Youyou eyes turned with difficulty, and they rubbed against their master's hand with great effort, slowly There was no sound.

They lived for 12 years and died of old age today.

Xue Yuan helped Gu Yuanbai up, and comforted him in a low voice: "My lord, let's find a place to bury these two wolves."

Gu Yuanbai was still a little dazed, "Okay."

There are also two wolves in the Hundred Beasts Garden, they are the little wolves who have been sent to the palace since they were cubs.Gu Yuanbai watched silently as Xue Yuan led the two wolves out, and watched the eunuch dig a pit to bury the wolf corpses together.

These wolves were wild and unruly, but they were tamed extremely obediently by Xue Yuan, and they were always by Gu Yuanbai's side.These wolves brought Gu Yuanbai a lot of trouble, but they also had a lot of fun.

He and Xue Yuan would take them for a walk at night when they were free, and they would often stick their lips together between the four pairs of green wolf eyes that shone with terror.But in a blink of an eye, two of them were old enough to die.

Tian Fusheng comforted him from the side: "My lord, these two wolves have never suffered anything. They eat and drink well every day, and they are also favored by the lord. They will definitely have no regrets in this life when they grow old."

Gu Yuanbai sighed, and Xue Yuan covered his mouth before he finished sighing, "Sighing often is not good."

"I just have some regrets," Gu Yuanbai said, "After all, they have been with me for several years."

Xue Yuan let go, and the two younger wolves beside him walked up to Gu Yuanbai, carefully licking his fingertips.

The dust falls to the ground, and the green leaves follow the wind.After the two wolves were buried, Gu Yuanbai walked back with Xue Yuan in silence. Halfway through the journey, he suddenly said with emotion: "I just felt a little sad before, but now that I think about it, they still walked together."

"It's good." Xue Yuan inserted his fingers between Gu Yuanbai's and clasped his hands together. "I will do the same with the Holy One."

Gu Yuanbai smiled, "That can't be done. My body is much worse than yours, and the hidden wounds on the battlefield have almost no effect on you. How can you die of old age at the same time as me?"

The fact is also the same. In the web drama adapted from the original book, it seems that Chu Wei died first, and Xue Yuan lived alone for 20 years.

Xue Yuan is really the proud son of heaven, only longevity can not be compared with others.Gu Yuanbai's eyes drooped, and every time he thought of the pair Xue Yuan and Chu Wei in the original text, he would feel extremely uncomfortable.

Only Xue Yuan's obsessive obsession with him can offset this discomfort.

His voice was so low that it would be blown away by the wind, "You can live to a hundred years, but I can't."

Even these lives were snatched from the hands of Hades.

Xue Yuan's face was ugly, but Gu Yuanbai didn't see it. It wasn't until his gloomy voice sounded that Gu Yuanbai raised his head to look at him, "Does Your Majesty think that I will live alone?"

Gu Yuanbai thought quietly, after your original destined good brother died, wouldn't you live alone?

"Did Your Majesty forget what I said to you?" Xue Yuan's eyes were clouded, he touched the soft flesh on the side of Gu Yuanbai's lips, and thought that this mouth was about to spit out something that made him sad again, and he was about to give it to him again. He stabbed a few times, "I told the sage, if you die, I will go and block your Huangquan Road first."

After he finished speaking, his words suddenly softened, and he pleaded: "Yuan Bai, trust me."

Gu Yuanbai opened his mouth, and was about to say "I believe", when Xue Yuan lowered his head, his forehead was pressed against Gu Yuanbai's forehead, holding the face of the Holy Majesty with both hands, Gu Yuanbai could see his face at a glance. In the fundus, I saw his already red eyes.

Xue Yuan murmured, "I can't live without you."

Gu Yuanbai's heart began to beat faster, he lowered his eyes, quietly feeling the warmth at this moment.

"I want to be with you forever," Xue Yuan's nasal voice became thicker, "Why do you always disbelieve what I say? I just want you, I just want to be with you. When I wake up every day and see you for the first time , you don’t know how happy I am. If you finally sleep in the ground, I just want to hug you and sleep for a long time. I live alone? Gu Yuanbai, how can you say such cruel words. "

After a long time, Gu Yuanbai pursed his lips, "I remember what you said, if you don't want to die then, I will give you a glass of poisoned wine."

Xue Yuan relaxed, and even kissed him more than a dozen times, "I will chase you after death, don't let other ghosts touch you."

Gu Yuan was overjoyed.

I can't help but wonder in my heart, why in the original text, Xue Yuan lived well to the end of his life after Chu Wei's death?

Time passed from month to month, and the land where the potato seeds were planted remained silent for a while, and Gu Yuanbai was sure that the potatoes would not grow.He put away the last bit of hope and completely focused on sweet potatoes and corn.

The farmers took care of the seedlings with great care. In mid-August, when the sweet potatoes and corns were finally ripe, one sunny day, the farmers took their farm tools, swallowed their saliva, and dug out the mud under the eyes of the Holy Majesty and the crowd. something underground.
