Destiny Only Han

Chapter 939 Liu Ying: When I was young and left home, the boss came back... no, it was the old man who left home when he was older!
regret.

In short, I am very sorry.

This is Liu Ying's only thought at the moment.

Without him, Liu Bang on the other side is showing off the highlight moment when he and Liu Ying won the arm wrestling competition...

The old man didn't push the numbers at all, he knew he wouldn't let him... Liu Ying snorted coldly and turned her head aside.

Liu Bang became more and more energetic, and rolled up his sleeves to show off in front of Lu Wan.

"Do you think I'm awesome?"

"dont see."

Liu Ying burst out laughing.

But in the next second, he suppressed his smile, as if nothing had happened.

But Liu Bang refused.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Father, you must have heard wrong."

Seeing that Liu Ying refused to admit it, Liu Bang snorted and grabbed Liu Bi who hadn't had time to walk away: "Tell me, did that kid laugh?"

Liu Ying immediately looked over with piercing eyes.

Liu Bi was in a dilemma, hesitated for a long time before cupping his hands and said: "Returning to uncle, my nephew has sudden ear problems these days, and will become deaf from time to time, so I haven't heard anything..."

Just kidding, he can't afford to offend either of those two!

But Liu Ying silently made a note for him.

As the old saying goes, loyalty is not absolute, but it is absolutely disloyal!
Liu Bang gave Liu Bi a contemptuous look, and took half a step forward to grab Zhang Buyi, who was lying innocent again: "If he doesn't say anything, you say it!"

Zhang Buyi: "..."

He looked at Liu Le, who was wearing men's clothes, looking east and west with Lu Yu, begging for help.

Liu Le received this signal keenly, and walked over with small steps: "Father, what are you doing?"

Liu Bang looked at Zhang Buyi, who was behind Liu Le's protection, and snorted angrily: "Gua!"

Liu Le put his hands on his waist: "Hmph! Don't think I don't know that it's a curse! I'll complain to my mother when I get back!"

Liu Bang: "..."

Lu Wan stood beside her, with a gloating expression on her face, until she saw her little padded jacket hugging Liu Ying's arm and whispering...

What's important is the admiration on Lu Yu's face, which he never showed even in front of his father!
In an instant, Lu Wan's good mood disappeared!

As a result, his gaze slowly shifted from the person to the surrounding scenery.

It doesn't matter if you look at it.

"Ok?"

"Why is the stream where Naigong caught shrimps gone?"

Lu Wan frowned.

Liu Bang also walked over slowly, looking left and right: "Did you remember wrongly?"

"no!"

"Absolutely not!"

Lu Wan said confidently: "Look at the stone bridge over there, isn't it the place where we used to hide?"

Liu Bang looked over with his hand on his forehead, and repeatedly confirmed: "It seems to be..."

"Hide?" Lu Yu walked to Lu Wan's side: "Why hide?"

Lu Wan rubbed her chin, her face full of nostalgia for the past: "Your father... Well, I'm talking about Liu Ying's father. Every time we got into trouble, your father would chase and beat you , I took him to hide under the stone bridge, even in winter."

Liu Bang turned his head and snorted coldly, but did not expose Lu Wan.

After all, what he pursues is to stand up straight when he is beaten, and he will not hide at all!

What's important is that he was young and frivolous at that time, and even made sarcasm when Liu Taigong was furious, and the main thing was a strong...

Therefore, Lu Wan is the only one hiding in Tibet!

After a while, Liu Bang frowned and asked, "Yeah, where did that stream go? Well, it's a stream, but if the flow of water is placed in Guanzhong, I'm afraid it can be counted as a river!"

"So much water, how could it disappear?"

On the other side, Dai Wang Liu Xi also nodded frequently.

They are now located very close to Zhongyangli. Liu Xi clearly remembered that in the Liu family's land in Fengyi, there was an irrigated field next to that stream!

After all, when he was in Pei County, Liu Taigong handed over the power of housekeeper to him.

Liu Ying walked over slowly: "Maybe, it has something to do with me."

Liu Bang immediately put his index finger and ring finger together, and pointed at Liu Ying: "I knew that you kid is not good!"

Lu Wan said disdainfully: "Listen to him! He can take away such a big stream? Could it be that those bald donkeys boasted that this shovel has the ability to catch mountains and catch the moon, and he really has it?"

Liu Ying was silent.

But Liu Xi said with a gentle face: "Hey...have you two forgotten that Liu Ying is the unicorn of our Liu family, so why is it so difficult to just fill up a stream?"

Flatterer, isolate you... Lu Wan silently distanced herself from Liu Xi with a look of contempt.

Liu Ying shook her head: "It's not filling up, but the stream drying up naturally."

"Naturally dried up?" Liu Bang frowned: "How could this be? Don't talk nonsense, kid!"

He was born and raised here, and even in the driest and driest years of the past, the stream only bottomed out, and it never stopped flowing for a single day!
Liu Ying scratched her head and explained: "The reason why I said that must be because of my reasons."

"In the past, the land in my hometown used to grow rice where it was easy to irrigate, and where it was not convenient to irrigate corn. And it was planted in spring and harvested in autumn, all year round."

"As a result, crops don't require much water."

"But it's different now. Except for those counties in the far north that lack water, most of the north is a rotation of wheat, corn, soybeans and corn, so there are two crops a year."

Liu Bang nodded: "But what does this have to do with the stream drying up?"

"Of course it's related." Liu Ying continued: "Wheat is a crop that consumes a lot of water. Basically, it needs to consume a thousand catties of water to grow a catty of wheat. When the wheat sown area doubles geometrically, first It’s surface water that’s being consumed a lot.”

"That is, rivers, lakes, and even streams."

"But there are many farmlands far away from water sources, so wells need to be drilled, and oranges are used to draw water and irrigate the farmland."

"Then, the groundwater will be consumed in large quantities, and the direct manifestation is that the soil will dry out and the surface water will infiltrate downward at an accelerated rate."

"In the end, the original river became a dark river flowing underground."

"Well, dark rivers are very common in Guanzhong."

"In the battle of Rangxiang that year, Cao Xiang led his army to pretend to be heavily besieged by Zhang Han and Dong Yi. There was an underground river under the place where he was stationed. Therefore, even if Zhang Han and Dong Yi cut off the water source of the army, the Han army would not There is no shortage of water available!" (Volume Two, Chapter [-])
"After all, you only need to dig down a few meters in the underground river, and you can see the bubbling water source."

Liu Bang nodded secretly, looked around, and what he saw was not the wilderness in his impression, but a piece of very regular farmland!
Now that the summer grain has been harvested, all he can see is corn as tall as half a person.

The green gauze tent is endless, as if extending to the end of the sky!

"So many lands? Can they be planted?" Liu Bang scratched his head and murmured softly.

"Of course I can grow it!" Liu Ying said with a smile: "Which Liju hasn't collectively purchased seven or eight horse-drawn harvesters and those efficient all-in-one threshers?"

"That's right! More than half of the disappearance of the stream full of father and Uncle Lu's childhood memories will be blamed on you, father!"

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Lu Wan immediately glared at Liu Bang.

Although the old man despises Liu Ying in all kinds of words, he actually believes in Liu Ying's judgment!

Liu Bang was stunned and furious: "You idiot, don't slander Naigong! Since Naigong put down the rebellion of Yingbu, Naigong has never set foot in Peixian County again. How can Naigong carry this pot?"

Liu Ying's face was filled with the expression that you don't want to deny it: "Yes, the root cause is that big victory! Dad, you learned a lot of talents regardless of the past, returned home rich and honored, and then promulgated what kind of edict, do you still remember? "

Liu Bang thought about it for a while, his eyes dodged a bit, but he still said stubbornly: "Naigong is old, so I can't remember it!"

Liu Ying suddenly started trembling, shaking her legs: "It is useless to deny it! You must know that the words and deeds of the emperor will be recorded in the book for future generations to check. Besides, it is an imperial edict, and it is stamped with the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, and there is a date on it. An imperial edict written in Yongchang!"

Riddlers must die... Lu Wan looked puzzled, looking left and right: "What are you two talking about? Just say what you want, don't go around, it's annoying!"

Liu Bang and Liu Ying looked at each other and smiled, feeling a sense of superiority in their hearts.

In particular, Liu Bang's eyes lingered on Lu Yu, who showed the same confused expression as his father and daughter, and then raised his eyebrows at Liu Ying invisibly.

It was clear what he meant.

Daughter-in-law, you must not look for smart ones, but this kind of stupid ones!
This is what he said from the bottom of his heart.

After all, there is a famous Empress Lu in his family who has gone down in history.

Liu Ying understood in seconds, shook her head and looked at Lu Wan who was in a daze:

"That year, my father stayed in Pei County for a few days, and he invited the elders of Pei County to chat with him. He was happy for a while, and said something like 'a wanderer is sad for his hometown. Although I am in Guanzhong, my soul is still happy after long live. And I Since the Duke of Pei punished the rebels, the world has come into being, and he took Pei as his home, Tang Muyi, and restored his people, and he has nothing to give in the world'..."

"From that day on, the people of Pei County have been exempted from all taxes and corvees."

"Not only that, when my father left Pei County, he was very happy again, and gave the same treatment to the people in Fengyi next door who were newly upgraded to 'county'!"

"Thus, with the privilege and no burden, the population of Fengpei County has increased from more than 2 households that year to the current 50 households, nearly 200 million people!"

"There are so many people, so many fields, not to mention just drying up a small stream, it is a blessing that the Weishan Lake over there will not dry up!"

In Lu Wan's astonishment, Liu Bang was triumphant.

Abundant great changes demonstrate the authority of the Son of Heaven!
When he was young, he once praised him, saying: "Wow, that's what a man should do!"

Now he has fulfilled his original oath!

In this life, no regrets!

But Lu Wan frowned: "I don't understand. Could it be that this person grew out of the ground? It's only been a few years, how come there are so many more people?"

Liu Ying explained with a smile:

"Maybe it's because there are bad people out of poor mountains and bad waters."

"After all, there are loopholes in the imperial edict. It doesn't say that the son-in-law who recruits a son-in-law cannot enjoy this privilege, nor does it stipulate that the children brought by the son-in-law cannot enjoy this privilege..."

"so……"
