Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 285 You Said, I Believe It
Not only Xue Rengui and Wang Xuance forged ahead in this winter, even Master Yuan Ke finally traveled all the way from Guangzhou to Hehuang Valley.

Master Yuan Ke came to the Hehuang Valley, looked at the falling snowflakes, and recalled the hardships of his journey. For some reason, he felt an indescribable sense of grievance in his heart!

But after all, he reached the Hehuang Valley, and more importantly, he met Yuan Tiangang.

"Father, did you really ask King Wei to recommend me here?" Master Yuan Ke was filled with indescribable grief and indignation.

"Father has found a good job, he can be famous in history like Li Bing, so he will bring you here immediately!"

Yuan Tiangang was a little embarrassed, but he didn't let Master Yuan Ke leave his mind. After all, it was not easy to find such a caring tool person.

"If Hai'er keeps working in Guangzhou, he is likely to achieve the same achievements as Li Bing!" Master Yuan Ke said.

Of course, Master Yuan Ke is not telling lies. After all, Master Yuan Ke established the Guangzhou Agricultural Institute, sugarcane gardens, and tea gardens in Guangzhou. Even in winter, as long as the local people follow the solar terms table made by Yuan Keshi, they can basically cultivate three crops a year.

Even when Master Yuan Ke returned to Chang'an, he brought rice seeds from Guangzhou that had been brought in from outside.

Because Li Tai established the Agricultural College with the intention of collecting all agricultural seeds in the world, whether it is rice seeds, wheat seeds, or even pasture seeds, Li Tai has collected them.

After all, Li Tai knows the concept of hybridization and is willing to invest in it.

After all, Li Tai's ultimate goal for agricultural development is to develop hybrid rice.

Under such circumstances, Li Tai has a preference for resources, whether it is the reserve of farming hybrid technology, the collection of excellent rice seeds, or even the cultivation of agricultural talents.

Therefore, the high-quality rice seeds brought back by Master Yuan Ke were quickly thrown by Li Tai to the agricultural college for cultivation.

"Ahem, what kind of Li Bing are you alone? He was the father and son who created Dujiangyan together, father...son!"

Yuan Tiangang paid great attention to pointing out the key point, but wanted Master Yuan Ke to understand where the key point is!

"Okay, okay!" Yuan Keshi said helplessly, "Then let me come, what are you going to do?"

"I have thought about it a long time ago, and discussed it with Du Biejia, mainly responsible for the design of terraced fields in the entire Hehuang Valley.

So I will follow the Hehuang Valley to find suitable places to reclaim terraced fields, and I will find out first.

Whether you choose the Yellow River or Huangshui, the rest is up to me! "Yuan Tiangang said.

"The Huangshui flows through the big cities in the Hehuang area, where many people live, so I choose the Yellow River!" Master Yuan Keshi thought about it, and finally chose to hand over the relatively simple Huangshui to Yuan Tiangang.

In contrast, there are basically no people in the Yellow River area, which naturally leads to no roads, which is not easy to survey.

After all, he is his father!
Yuan Tiangang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, give me the Huangshui and leave the Yellow River to you.

In addition, remember to record the climate in the Hehuang Valley. Although the solar terms here are generally similar to those in Chang'an, there are some differences in the subtleties.

If you want to ensure farming, you also need to formulate a suitable solar term table for the local people, so that they know what they should do every year! "

"I know this!" Master Yuan Ke nodded to Yuan Tiangang.

I have been in Guangzhou for so long, and my main job is to make solar terms

And just when the two were about to discuss further, Du Chuke came here to pay a visit.

The two came out to greet them quickly, and Du Chuke said, "Today, I saw that there was winter snow in early October, so I sent some meat, cotton clothes and charcoal fire over, and please take it after counting it!"

Master Yuan Ke looked at these things, looked at Du Chuke with some surprise and said, "Du Biejia, why did you personally deliver these sundries!"

Du Chuke looked at Yuan Tiangang and said, "I just came to see with my own eyes whether any of the people near Shancheng lacked charcoal and food.

After all, I am not familiar with Hehuang Valley, so I need to see it with my own eyes.

Only then will I know what to reserve for next year. Compared with Chang'an, this place is really a place of bitter cold! "

"It is a blessing for Shanzhou to have someone like you, Mr. Du, in Shanzhou!" Yuan Tiangang praised sincerely.

To be honest, relying on Du Chuke's arbitrariness on Shanzhou's side, it is impossible to say that there are no hidden dangers.

But with Du Chuke in charge, at least the local people can clearly feel that this winter is much easier than last year when they had to rely on the tribe for support.

Not to mention those local people who have worked hard to grow food on weekdays, they can more or less survive this winter.

More importantly, those who did not harvest food due to various reasons, they found that under the rule of Datang, they were more or less guaranteed.

Because the court will provide hot soup and food every day, and even houses and quilts for sleeping and sheltering from the wind, as long as they are willing to be employed by the Tang government, they can live by the Datang government.

This is very important for them after the war, especially to survive this winter.

And the government of the Tang Dynasty seems to have endless work, even if it is just some hard work, for the local people, it is too easy to live by doing such work.

Because the government of the Tang Dynasty not only let him work, even if he fell ill due to work, the government would also take the initiative to let doctors treat him.

To be honest, basically a year has passed, and it is absolutely unrealistic for people in the land of Tuyuhun to say how loyal they are to Tang, but at least they feel that this kind of life is more or less better than the previous life.

For the first time, they realized what civilization is and what parental officials are. At least compared to the extensive management of Tuyuhun at the beginning, the survivors of Tuyuhun have become more obedient to the rule of the Tang Dynasty itself.

Basically, after the first year, the people of Tuyuhun have completely accepted the rule of the Tang Dynasty, and this land will naturally be digested by the Tang Dynasty soon.

After all, Tuyuhun was originally a branch of Xianbei that came out of the East Asian monster house. They have a natural centripetal force towards the Tang civilization. Not only will they not reject the assimilation of the Tang Dynasty, they will even actively cooperate.

Of course, the main reason why Du Chuke did this was because King Wei said that in the future, he would probably fight against Tubo, which is opposite Dafeichuan, so he had to have a stable logistics.

"When the morale of the local people has stabilized, then I can send people to all the lakes on the plateau that can support geese to build poultry houses.

It would be best if Wang Xuance wins the fight, but if he loses, he can only send people to pollute all the freshwater lakes around Qinghai! "

Du Chuke thought about it, but finally made such a decision. This is the fastest way to wipe Wang Xuance's ass.

After all, although Li Tai gave Wang Xuance a chance, in the end he had to let himself support Wang Xuance.

If the main force led by Wang Xuance was defeated, then with such a small number of people in his hands, what else could he accomplish, he would definitely have to play the method of killing them all, and how cruel it was.

For Du Chuke, he does not lack the courage to decide a matter, but he lacks a platform that allows him to display it. People can slander themselves in their hearts, but they cannot hinder their own platform for arbitrariness.

It was precisely because of this that when Du Chuke worked with others, he always felt that others were unhappy here and unhappy there.

The most annoying thing is that I am not the leader, but there are still people who oppose me when I work!

But this kind of situation does not exist in the border areas, and Du Chuke, who is almost regarded as the chief official of Shanzhou's frontiers, does not exist.

Although he is also arbitrary and authoritarian, Du Chuke can often show his strength to people who are one class lower than himself.

Even because of being too strict and arbitrary, no one dared to violate his words, which made Shanzhou very efficient under his leadership.

As for any bureaucratic physique, you don't care what his physique is like, in the end it is the overall efficiency of the bureaucratic system.

At least when the entire Shanzhou was responsible to Du Chuke, Du Chuke's execution ability was quite strong.

Basically, Du Chuke was already preparing for Li Tai's reasonable and unreasonable demands.

"It's just that although I can prepare well, does Tubo really have the guts to move Huaxia?" Du Chuke didn't understand, because he really didn't take Tubo seriously.

After all, Huaxia's opponents have always been in the north since ancient times, and they never thought that their opponents would come from the southwest, but Li Tai repeatedly warned Du Chuke not to be careless!

And just when Wang Xuance, Du Chuke and others left their mark on Hehuang Valley little by little.

Guanzhong was not so peaceful, originally Li Tai was calmly waiting at home for Li Chengqian to attack him.

But he didn't see any movement of Li Chengqian, but he was declared into the main hall by the king's servant to wait.

Li Tai had some doubts in his heart, he felt that he just stayed obediently in the mansion and waited for Li Chengqian's revenge. He didn't cause trouble, so what happened?

But soon, Li Tai came to the Tai Chi Hall after seeing Li Shimin, but he saw several ministers were there, even Prince Li Chengqian was there.

This made Li Tai a bit puzzled, and after coming to the main hall to salute, he asked directly, "What happened to Aye, I'm still at a loss!"

"Plagues have broken out in Guannei, Hedong and other areas, and the imperial court needs to organize personnel to carry out disaster relief.

I came here because you are good at making money and gathering money, and I need you to assist Du Qing in raising medicines. " Li Shimin said calmly.

Li Shimin looked at Du Ruhui, and Du Ruhui saluted Li Tai, saying, "King Wei's life is at stake, we need to leave today."

"Stop, stop!" Li Tai said when he heard Li Shimin's words,

"Aye, it's no problem for you to ask me to assist Du Xiang in doing things, even if you ask me to advance money to collect medicines, it's a trivial matter.

But I have to make it clear that assisting in disaster relief belongs to me as an advance fund for the imperial court. When the matter is over, I will go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for reimbursement.

I still have my eye on the little money I finally saved, and I plan to use this opportunity to spend it! "

Hearing Li Tai's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but look embarrassed, and said, "Qing Que, you're out of money's eyes!"

"Qingque, we are the children of the royal family, so we should be open-minded. If we can save the common people from danger with a mere copper stink, what is there to be reluctant about?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai, but he didn't expect Li Tai to bump into him, so he hurried out and said A few words!

Several important ministers present saw that Li Chengqian seemed to have caught Li Tai's handle, so they didn't intend to join in, but watched silently, and went to do their own things one by one.

However, Li Tai didn't flinch at all, but saluted Li Shimin, saying,

"It's not a matter of coordinating medicinal materials, Qingque is not reluctant, but as a child of the royal family, Qingque must abide by the rules and regulations.

Private is private, public is public, those who use power for personal gain are greedy, and those who use private interests to seek public fame, Qingque doesn't want to make a distinction between public and private, which will lead to infamy.

Therefore, I also ask Aye to give me a charter so that I can follow the charter. "

Li Shimin heard Li Tai's words and looked at Li Tai again, and finally said with a little helplessness:
"As an advance for the imperial court, the consumption of this disaster relief will be reimbursed at the Ministry of Civil Affairs when you return."

"Obey!" Li Tai immediately saluted Li Shimin, and then said to Li Shimin, "Then I will leave with Du Xiang?"

"Go away! You kid who fell into Qian's eye, don't come back until you're done saving the disaster!" Li Shimin waved his hand.

Of course, Li Shimin said so, but the doting tone in his tone is understandable to everyone.

Naturally, Li Tai was not polite, saluted Li Shimin, then followed Du Ruhui to leave the Tai Chi Hall and went to work.

This was just a trivial matter for Li Tai, and Li Chengqian watched Li Tai leave with a bit of resentment.

Finally, as it got dark, a number of ministers left, and finally only Li Chengqian and Li Shimin were left.

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin in confusion, and was about to get up and leave several times, but Li Shimin always asked him to stay.

This made Li Chengqian somewhat uneasy, but he could only bite the bullet and continue to sit.

In the end, only Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were left in this room. Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand, and then said slowly,
"Why did you find someone to get the dove poison? What do you want to do, or rather, who do you want to poison to death!"

When Li Chengqian heard this, cold sweat ran down his forehead, and he couldn't help kneeling on the ground and said to Li Shimin,

"Chengqian is just curious about this kind of poison, he never thought about poisoning anyone!"

"Chengqian, Aye, I was once poisoned by the dove poison of my own brother, and the pain in my heart is even worse than the sore spot of the dove poison.

Fortunately, Concubine Yang saved her, but she was saved from death, so I hate this vicious thing the most in my life.

So you said that you just bought a bottle out of curiosity, and I believed it when you said it, let alone tell your mother about it.

But I also hope that you can have the magnanimity that a prince should have, understand! "

Li Shimin patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder, with a bit of heartache, but also with a bit of solemn entrustment.

"Chengqian, I understand!" Li Chengqian was already dripping with sweat, but seeing that the incident was over, he also stood up again.

Li Shimin didn't delve into it, but Li Chengqian understood that if he really did something, his father might know it clearly.

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin's back, and thought silently, "No one in the palace can be trusted!"
