The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

There is a Huangzhuang in the southern suburbs of the capital.Every spring, Emperor Wu of Zhou would bring his sons and ministers here to plant seedlings in the fields.

On the way to the southern suburbs, Zhao Yao rode on a horse and kept looking around.The fourth prince kept staring at him, worried that he would fall off the horse.

"Fourth brother, there are kites flying in the sky." Zhao Yao pointed to the kite in the distant sky, "Someone's kite must have broken its string."

"Want to fly a kite?"

Zhao Yao nodded vigorously: "I think."

"When I get back to the palace, I'll take you to fly the kite." At this time last year, the fourth prince took Zhao Yao to fly the kite.

"Okay, then we will make a big kite."

"Row."

After Zhao Yao finished speaking, he lowered his head and stared at the side of the road again.

The fourth prince saw that his body was getting lower and lower, and he was about to fall, so he quickly stretched out his hand to hold him.

"Sit down."

"Fourth brother, now that there are stirrups, I won't fall off so easily."

"Can't be careless."

Since Zhao Yao got the stirrup out, Emperor Wu of Zhou ordered to make the stirrup.Horses in palaces and barracks now have stirrups.Of course, folk horses also have stirrups.

Since the introduction of stirrups, the cavalry's immediate combat capability has improved a lot.

Recently, the Huns are ready to move.Emperor Wu of Zhou ordered the cavalry to practice diligently. You must know that the cavalry of the Huns are very fierce.

Sooner or later, Da Zhou had a war with the Huns.For this battle, Dazhou must make full preparations in advance, especially the combat capability of cavalry must be improved.

"Fourth brother, I'm looking at the wild vegetables." Zhao Yao said, "The wild vegetables are very delicious, especially for making dumplings."

"Are you going to dig some wild vegetables and bring them back to the palace?"

"Yeah, I'm going to dig some to take home and make dumplings."

Seeing that Zhao Yao never forgot to eat wherever he went, the fourth prince smiled helplessly: "You..."

"I'll pick some wild flowers later and bring them back to my mother and concubine." Zhao Yao said, "Fourth Brother, you also pick some back and give them to Concubine Li."

"Send wild flowers?"

"Wild flowers are beautiful." Zhao Yao suddenly thought of a sentence, "Isn't there a saying that domestic flowers do not have the fragrance of wild flowers?"

The fourth prince who heard this sentence was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse.He asked with an ugly face, "Who told you this?"

"I heard."

"Where did you hear that?"

"I heard it on the street."

"This sentence is not a good one, don't say it again in the future." The fourth prince said with a serious expression, "This sentence is not about flowers."

"Ah, it's not flowers, so what are you talking about?" Zhao Yao asked suspiciously.

At this time, the third prince turned his head and smiled at Zhao Yao: "It's about women. This sentence means women at home, and they don't have the fragrance of wild women outside."

The fourth prince said to the third prince with a sullen face: "Brother Sanhuang, don't teach the tenth brother bad!"

"I'm telling Tenth Brother what he meant by that sentence just now, but I haven't taught him badly."

"The tenth brother is still a child."

"It's because the tenth brother is a child, so I have to tell him what this sentence means, so that he won't talk nonsense in the future." After the third prince finished speaking, seeing the fourth prince looking at him more and more coldly, his heart fell. A little apprehensive, she smiled embarrassingly, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything."

The fifth prince said: "Fourth brother, there's nothing wrong with these words, you are too protective of the tenth brother..." Seeing the fourth prince glance over coldly, the fifth prince quickly shut up, not daring to say anything more.

Zhao Yao blinked, it turned out that this sentence meant this.

"Fourth brother, I won't say that again in the future." He quickly changed the subject, "Fourth brother, how do you plant rice seedlings?" The concubine mother told him to learn how to plant rice seedlings.

"Planting seedlings..." The fourth prince explained to Zhao Yao how to plant seedlings seriously, "I'll show you when the meeting is up."

"Then I have to keep my eyes open and watch carefully."

Next, the fourth prince told Zhao Yao a lot about transplanting seedlings and farming.

Zhao Yao listened very carefully.If he doesn't understand, he will ask.

Since the fourth prince started planting rice seedlings in the fields, he has read many books on this subject.He has basically read all the books on agriculture.He also asked many people with farming experience, and then recorded these experiences in detail, and then he compiled the contents into a book.This book was published two years ago.

In terms of farming experience, the fourth prince is the most abundant among all the princes.Of course, he is also the best among all the princes.

After more than an hour, Zhao Yao and the others finally arrived at Huangzhuang in the southern suburbs.

After arriving at Huangzhuang, Emperor Wu of Zhou took his sons and ministers to the fields to plant rice seedlings.

Emperor Wu of Zhou wore coarse clothes, rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, and stood in the field with his waist bowed, skillfully planting rice seedlings.

The prince was beside him, and he was also very skillfully planting the seedlings.

The Dai Wang on the other side is a bit unfamiliar, after all, he hasn't gone to the field to plant rice seedlings for several years.

Seeing that the seedlings planted by Dai Wang were not very good, the prince personally taught him how to plant them.

Although Dai Wang was not willing to be taught by the crown prince, he could not refuse and could only follow suit.If he doesn't learn and can't plant the seedlings well, he will be reprimanded by Emperor Wu of Zhou.

The third prince and the others were a little unskilled at first, but they would become proficient after planting. After all, they planted rice every year.

While planting rice seedlings, the fourth prince told Zhao Yao, who was standing on the ridge of the field, how to plant them.

Zhao Yao looked at it very seriously.After watching for a while, he wanted to go to the field to try.

"Fourth brother, I'll be here for a while."

"The water in the field is very cold, you are not in good health, it is better not to come down..." Before he finished speaking, the fourth prince saw Zhao Yao quickly take off his shoes and socks, and then jumped down.

"Tenth brother, you..."

"Fourth brother, I'm not afraid of the cold." The water in the field is indeed very cold. "Fourth brother, do you think I planted it right?" Zhao Yao picked up the seedlings and planted the flag seedlings just like the Fourth Prince did just now.

The fourth prince inspected it carefully, then nodded and said, "It's well inserted."

"Then I will continue to insert." Zhao Yao is small and short, so he can just squat down and insert.His movements were fast, and he inserted a lot in a while.

The fourth prince was afraid that he would not do well.Every seedling he planted, the fourth prince must carefully check to make sure there is no problem.

"Ouch..." Zhao Yao felt something bite his leg.He hurriedly raised his leg to look, and found something tightly stuck to his leg.When he was about to reach out to grab it, he was stopped by the fourth prince.

The fourth prince led Zhao Yao up to the field ridge, and immediately he squatted down, raised his hand and patted down the leech attached to Zhao Yao's calf.Then, he took the medicine bottle from Wei Mian and applied the medicine to the place where Zhao Yao was bitten by the leeches.

"Fourth brother, what was that just now, it's so disgusting?"

"Blood-sucking leeches, there are many such things in the field." The fourth prince said, "You can't just grab them with your hands, you have to pat them off with your hands."

"Fourth brother, have you been bitten?"

"No."

"Could it be that I'm too young?"

"Brother Ten, you are too cold to go to the field anymore." The fourth prince was worried that Zhao Yao would be frozen if he went to the field again.

"Fourth brother, I'm fine." It was a little cold in the field, but it stopped after a while.

"obedient."

The fourth prince's hands were covered with mud, so he couldn't put on shoes and socks for Zhao Yao.Zhao Yao's chubby hands were also covered in mud.

The fourth prince called Wei Mian over and asked Wei Mian to wait on Zhao Yao to put on shoes and socks.

After Zhao Yao put on his shoes and socks, he had no choice but to stand on the ridge of the field and watch the fourth prince planting rice seedlings.

The Seventh Prince seemed to have been bitten by a leech, and he almost cried out in fright. He hurried up to the field ridge and asked the eunuch who was serving him to pat the leech off his leg.

"Brother Seven, are you okay?"

The Seventh Prince said with an ugly face: "It's nothing." After speaking, he wrinkled his face and reluctantly returned to the field.

"Fourth Brother, Seventh Brother seems very upset." He also seemed disgusted.

The fourth prince glanced at the seventh prince, and immediately said indifferently: "Don't worry about him."

The Seventh Prince complained in his heart while planting rice seedlings.

He didn't understand why he, who had a noble status, went to the fields to plant rice like those untouchables?
What did the royal father think?

When I planted rice seedlings when I was young, I was often bitten by leeches.This thing is so disgusting, I have a psychological shadow of it.Just seeing it makes me feel uncomfortable.
