Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 310 Feng Bo
Time goes by slowly, summer goes and autumn comes.

There is still some heat in Chang'an in early autumn.

And at this time, Li Shimin returned to Chang'an City with a mighty army.

This time, as soon as Li Shimin walked to Zhuque Street, someone secretly told him that Li Yuan was already waiting in front of the palace gate.

Obviously, Li Shimin's contribution this time was too great, so his father and emperor had to greet him in person, just like Li Jiancheng repelled the Turkic army back then.

And being able to let the emperor greet him like this shows that he has already been deeply loved by Li Yuan.

On both sides of Suzaku Street, many people were watching the excitement and talking about it. Some people were looking for their relatives, sad or happy.

That's what war is.

No one is immune to casualties.

The team soon came to the gate of the imperial palace. After Li Shimin saw Li Yuan, he dismounted and walked forward. After stepping forward, he knelt down together with all the soldiers.

"I wait for you to fulfill your mission!"

All the ministers shouted, Li Yuan nodded excitedly: "You are all good men of my Tang Dynasty, please hurry up."

Li Yuan stepped forward to help Li Shimin up, and then said: "Father has set up a banquet in the palace, let's go."

The officials followed into the palace, and the banquet finally came to an end around dusk.

Qin Shubao, Yu Chigong and the others were already drunk, and when they left the palace, they talked a lot.

"I'm happy today, but I didn't enjoy drinking enough. Come to my house tomorrow and continue drinking."

"No, drink at my house..."

Cheng Yaojin and the others said this, but Qin Tian didn't want to mingle with them. He turned around and wanted to leave quietly, but just as he was about to turn around, Cheng Yaojin grabbed his shoulder.

"You boy, you must go to my house to drink tomorrow."

"If you have time, my nephew will definitely go."

"........."

Qin Tian didn't know how he escaped, anyway, he returned home in a daze.

And as soon as he arrived at the mansion, Lu Huaniang came out to welcome him.

However, Lu Huaniang looked a little nervous.

"Sir, something happened."

Qin Tian frowned: "What's the matter?"

"Did you goug out the eyes of Tuyuhun's envoy for the sake of Princess Nine? Tang Rong got angry."

Lu Huaniang was also very angry. There were already two wives in the family, and Qin Tian actually went to provoke the ninth princess. It's just that if she gets angry again, she can't play petty temper like Tang Rong.

Hearing that Tang Rong was just jealous and angry, Qin Tian's heart sank immediately. He thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be this. In his opinion, it was easy to solve.

"Is Huaniang also angry?" Taking advantage of Tang Rong's absence, Qin Tian touched Lu Huaniang's butt. With an angry look on his face, he said, "It's not serious, you'd better think about how to coax Tang Rong first."

Saying that, Lu Huaniang left with her butt twisted, Qin Tian smiled, and then entered Tang Rong's bedroom.

Tang Rong pretended to be angry and stayed in the bedroom after learning about Qin Tian's return. Seeing Qin Tian's return, she snorted and turned serious.

"You still know that when you come back, why don't you go to the Ninth Princess Mansion."

Full of jealousy, but Qin Tian liked it more and more.

"What is the madam talking about? My husband must be going home when I come back. What's the matter with going to the Ninth Princess Mansion?"

"Hmph, now Chang'an City has spread the word that you have gouged out the eyes of Tuyuhun envoys for the sake of the Ninth Princess. What else do you have to say?"

Qin Tian was getting closer and closer to Tang Rong. At this moment, he suddenly rushed over and pressed Tang Rong under him.

"If you have anything to say, wait until Xianggong feeds you."

"You...hate..."

Having not been in contact with a woman for such a long time, Qin Tian's energy was beyond imagination. Not long after, Tang Rong begged for mercy.

As dusk fell, the sky outside gradually darkened. Tang Rong, who was lying on the bed, pinched Qin Tian fiercely: "You are not serious, tell me what's going on?"

Qin Tian was so exhausted that he lay on the bed and turned over: "What else can happen, Tang Dynasty will never get married, it has nothing to do with the Ninth Princess, no matter the princess, I'm going to poach that Tuyuhun envoy eyes."

This statement is not false, it just happened that Lu Ashu mentioned the name of Princess Nine.

Tang Rong curled her lips: "It's strange to believe you."

The next day, Qin Tian finally woke up very late.

And after he got up, he didn't go there, he just looked around the mansion, after all he had been out for so long, there might be quite a backlog of things in the mansion.

As for Cheng Yaojin's drinking party, he will not go, of course, he will not go to see Princess Nine.

It's not necessary, and I don't want to confuse others.

After looking over the affairs of the family, Qin Tian found that there was not much backlog, but from Uncle Fu, Qin Tian learned that the crops in the field were about to harvest.

But there seems to be a shortage of manpower.

They now have about a thousand acres of land, and this year they have planted hundreds of acres of cotton, hundreds of acres of soybeans, and various melons and fruits.

The melons and fruits are almost eaten or sold in summer, and now only cotton and soybeans need to be harvested.

As for soybeans, it’s okay to wait a few more days, and after the soybeans are ripe, they can harvest and remove the seeds directly, but cotton is a bit embarrassing for them.

Although, when Qin Tian left, he taught them how to deal with cotton. For example, after the cotton grows to a certain height, the head should be pinched to prevent it from flourishing. Only in this way can more cotton be produced.

What's more, because there are no pesticides, the cotton planted has to catch insects. The slaves of the Qin Mansion, servants, etc., almost have to catch insects in the fields every day.

The worms caught are collected and fed to the hens raised at home.

There is nothing wrong with these, but now that the cotton is in full bloom, what to do next?

Regarding this problem, Qin Tian also said that it is enough to let them pick the cotton and let it dry.

But there was too much cotton, and the people in their house couldn't pick it in time at all, and if it couldn't be picked quickly, it would be bad if it rained.

Moreover, after the cotton is picked, it needs to be dried, which requires people, and there is a problem when drying, that is, when they use cloth to dry, it is not easy to dry.

Uncle Fu explained these issues to Qin Tian. After hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but smile wryly. With more land, there will be more demand for people. This is why many people in many lands like to buy slaves.

There are more slaves, and these jobs will be easier to do.

Qin Tian decided to give Fu Bo some advice, but just as he was about to say something, someone from the palace came.

"Qin Tian received the decree. Qin Tian made meritorious service in battle. He was granted the title of County Boss of the Founding of the People's Republic of China. The Yongye field was increased to [-] mu, and the land was rewarded with [-] mu of land, and [-] slaves and maidservants..."

The palace people finished reading the imperial decree in murmurs, but Qin Tian and the others were pleasantly surprised.
