Chapter 75
Li Shimin said: "The award of Li Zheng is still up for discussion."

Fang Xuanling nodded, "I have retired."

With so many courtiers admonishing, Li Shimin still postponed Li Zheng's award for further discussion.

Jingyang
Li Zheng and Li Tai were playing backgammon, but they stopped halfway when they were playing Li Tai.

Looking up at Li Tai, Li Zheng said, "Why don't you pay? You owe me so much money before, do you want to default on your debt?"

Li Tai pointed to the outside of the hospital.

Li Zheng turned his head and saw a familiar figure standing outside the yard.

Take a closer look, isn't this Li Lizhi?

Li Zheng looked at Li Lizhi walking around his door with her head lowered and said, "Fatty, did she lose something?"

"what?"

"Look at her walking around, did she lose any money?"

Li Tai smiled disdainfully at Li Zheng's remarks. He really didn't know whether this kid was really confused or just acting stupid.

Standing up, Li Tai said, "I'm going to sleep, I won't wake up in a few hours."

After speaking, Li Tai walked into his room and closed the door.

Li Zheng walked to the door and saluted, "Your Highness Princess, did you drop something? Did you lose money?"

Li Lizhi raised her chin and said, "You still only have money in your eyes."

Li Zheng sighed and said, "His Royal Highness the princess looked at me wrongly. I don't only have money in my eyes."

Li Lizhi's cheeks flushed for a while, she stood up straight and said nonchalantly, "Really? Then what else do you have in your eyes?"

Li Zheng said sadly: "In addition to money, I also have poetry and distance in my eyes."

"Why can't I believe it so?"

"I really don't believe it..."

Following Li Zheng's walk in the village, Li Lizhi breathed in the air and said, "I haven't been here for a month, and I feel that the changes here are really big."

Li Zheng came to the field and dug out a potato and said, "Does Her Royal Highness know what this is?"

Li Lizhi looked at the things hanging on the rhizome curiously and asked, "What is this?"

"This is a potato, a kind of grain."

"Potatoes?" Li Lizhi looked at it and said, "It's a bit like the sweet potatoes you gave me before."

"Today, Her Royal Highness the Princess has a good meal."

Li Lizhi was very curious about what Li Zheng had in his hand, and the sweet potatoes he had eaten before. After eating it once, he also inquired several times, and asked the people in the palace to consult the classics.

There is no such food as sweet potato, and there is no record of such food in the Central Plains.

Li Zheng took a few potatoes to the river to wash them.

Li Lizhi sat on the side and watched Li Zheng busy, then skillfully lit a small pot on the fire and began to stew pork and potatoes.

"I really envy you, you seem to know everything."

Watching the soup boil, pieces of pork and potatoes floated up.

Li Zheng took the pot off the fire, handed over the chopsticks and said, "Try it."

Li Lizhi picked up a piece of potato, carefully took a bite, and said, "It's delicious, very soft and glutinous."

After taking one bite and taking another bite, his face was flushed red from the sun.

After eating for a while, Li Lizhi said, "Li Zheng, I'm full."

"Have you eaten so many mouthfuls?"

Li Lizhi grinned and said, "I'm full after a few bites. It's getting late, and I'm going back."

Seeing the girl Li Lizhi leave with the guards, Li Zheng always felt that the girl had something on her mind.

Divide the leftover stewed pork with potatoes among the children in the village.

Li Lizhi returned to the palace and Li Shimin received the news immediately.

This time, Li Lizhi has been out of the palace for a longer time than before.

Li Shimin sat in the hall of nectar and pondered. As Li Zhi was about to arrange a marriage, the smile on her face became less and less.

Many times she just sat looking at the scenery and didn't know what she was thinking.

Knowing that she was not happy, Li Shimin felt uncomfortable.

Zhangsun Wuji has been recuperating at home these days.

I went to see him a few days ago.

It is hard to say whether he is really sick.

Li Shimin can also see the scenery with Li Zheng.

The fame of the eldest grandson's family also began to plummet.

Even running a bookstore won't save much of its reputation.

Li Shimin knew very well that the relationship between himself and his eldest grandson Wuji had become more and more distant since he ascended the throne.

It wasn't that he didn't know what Changsun Wuji was thinking.

There is a lot of discussion about Zhangsun Wuji, both in the market and in the court.

After thinking for a long time, Li Shimin got up and went to Changsun's house to visit Changsun Wuji again.

Now everyone is paying attention to the marriage of Princess Changle.

I was inquiring about Princess Changle's marriage.

Li Shimin went to Changsun Wuji's house twice.

There are many people who speculate whether His Majesty intends to let Princess Changle marry Changsun Chong.

To say that the young people in Chang'an today are also the eldest grandson Chong besides Li Zheng.

"But Changsun Chong is within His Majesty's five clothes."

"Is this kind of marriage possible?"

"Your Majesty will definitely not do this today."

……

Someone else said, "If Your Majesty wants to win over Changsun Wuji, maybe he can really do it."

"Zhangsun Wuji's family background is much better than Li's."

"Li Zheng is from a commoner. If you go to a higher place and say that Li Zheng is just a county, how can a princess marry such a commoner."

"It will definitely be chosen among the powerful."

"Is the princess marrying Li Zheng to farm?"

"But His Majesty's reward to Li Zheng has been delayed."

Li Shimin went to visit Zhangsun Wuji's body for the second time, and Wei Zheng came as soon as he returned to the palace.

Tired and upset, Li Shimin said, "Let him in."

Wei Zheng came to the Ganlu Palace and said: "Your Majesty, do you want to marry Princess Changle to Changsun Chong?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng quietly, he really had this idea in his heart, and he is still hesitating and considering it now.

Wei Zheng continued: "Your Majesty! How come you can marry within five clothes! Could it be that Your Majesty wants to risk the world and not violate it?"

Li Shimin left Ganlu Palace with a wave of his hand and did not want to talk to Wei Zheng anymore.

The discussion in the market is getting bigger and bigger, and it is about to overshadow the matter of Li Zhengfeng's reward.

There was no decree for Li Zheng's reward, and he hesitated about the marriage of Princess Changle.

What happened to your majesty now?
Li Yifu began to arrange for the villagers to harvest potatoes.

Li Zheng watched the grand occasion of harvesting potatoes, and the yield per mu of potatoes was very high.

The yield per mu is one kilogram to two thousand kilograms.

Converted to the current grain unit, it is about [-] to [-] shi per mu.

What is this concept.

The yield of millet in Datang was only over 100 catties per mu.

According to the weight, the output of these potatoes is more than ten times higher than that of Datang's annual harvest of millet.

And considering the current season, potatoes can still be planted for two seasons.

Potatoes are not so difficult to grow.

Many places that are far from wasteland can be used to grow potatoes.

A warehouse full of potatoes can't fit into Ben.

Li Zheng now realizes that he seems to have grown too many potatoes.

 still today
