Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 16 The marriage is set, Lin Heng and Ning Xi are a match made in heaven!
In the Hall of Wude, when the news of Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi leaving the palace reached Li Shimin's ears, he was extremely angry.

"They were too presumptuous. They left the palace without informing me in advance, and they went to Lin Heng's house anyway!"

"The marriage has not been decided yet. If word spreads, where will the royal family's reputation be placed?"

Seeing that Li Shimin was so angry, Changsun Wugou on the side tried to dissuade him.

"Since His Majesty is curious about Lin Heng, he is Ning Xi's future husband after all, so he will naturally go and have a look."

"It's just my little daughter's concern and has nothing to do with the royal family's reputation. Your Majesty does not need to be angry about it."

Even after listening to what eldest grandson Wugou said, Li Shimin was still a little dissatisfied: "Then we can't leave the palace with just a few maids. After all, they are the apple of my eye. What if Lin Heng underestimates me?"

Hearing this, Changsun Wugou smiled and said, "Since this man is not sad about fame and wealth, he naturally won't have such thoughts. When Ning Xi and others came to visit, it was too late for him to be happy."

Seeing that most of Li Shimin's anger had dissipated, the eldest grandson Wugou also brought up Lin Heng's marriage.

Li Shimin said expressionlessly: "Since Ning Xi has no objections, this marriage is settled."

"Then I will tell Ning Xi about this."

Li Shimin waved his hand, then sighed slightly and said, "Let Li Chunfeng test their horoscopes to see if they match."

Dynasties since ancient times have always had some theological overtones. Just as the emperor would call himself the Son of Heaven and receive orders from Heaven, the royal family would also be called the Heavenly Family.

At that time, Li Shimin made countless achievements during his campaigns in all directions, and was named General Tiance by the late emperor.

After the Turks were defeated, Li Shimin released Ji Li Khan. A few B&Bs were deeply moved and wrote letters honoring Li Shimin as Tian Khan.

Li Shimin himself also believed in Taoism to some extent.

After hearing this, Wanyu went immediately, and soon after she came back with a Taoist priest.

The person who came was none other than Li Chunfeng, who was proficient in astronomy, calendar, yin and yang, and eight trigrams. He was now the number one calculator and the number one Yi Xue master in the Tang Dynasty.

When Li Shimin saw Li Chunfeng coming in person, he was a little confused. It was just a calculation of eight characters and he could just write down the results, right?

When he met Li Shimin, Li Chunfeng first called the Taoist inspector, and then asked: "I wonder if Lin Heng is the person who announced the recruitment of a son-in-law?"

Li Shimin nodded, "Yes, now I have finalized their marriage, so I want you to calculate the marriage between this person and Princess Runan."

Hearing this, Li Chunfeng was very excited and said immediately: "Looking at Lin Heng, his destiny is quite strange. Even a poor man has never seen him before."

Li Shimin frowned slightly, but did not speak. Could it be that this person's fate was extremely bad?

"This person's birth date and birth date should have been his destiny to die young, but for some unknown reason, his destiny was changed against the will of heaven. Moreover, this person's destiny and Princess Runan's destiny are perfect. They are one yin and one yang, a match made in heaven!"

"If he marries Princess Runan, he will surely have long-lasting blessings, a rich family of descendants, and will be very rich in the future!"

After hearing this, Li Shimin was overjoyed, but he still said disapprovingly: "With me here, my son-in-law will naturally become rich and powerful."

The eldest grandson Wugou also smiled and said: "I congratulate your majesty on your good son-in-law. Your majesty can rest assured that Ning Xi will have a good husband in the future."

Li Shimin nodded slightly, and then said: "It was passed down to the provincial government that Lin Heng created the Quyuan Plow and made great contributions to farming. He was given the title of founding the son of Ruyang County and a daughter!"

Hearing that he was the son of Ruyang County, the eldest grandson Wugou couldn't help but smile, and then he became curious about the Qu Yuanli.

Although I heard Li Shimin talk about Lin Heng's invention of a new plow before, his Majesty actually gave Lin Heng a title for this, which really surprised Changsun Wugou.Moreover, the reward of a thousand gold coins is not small.

"Did His Majesty see it during his private visit to Linjiazhuang in disguise?"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel happy: "The curved shaft plow is a good thing. Compared with the current straight shaft plow, it is not only much lighter in appearance, but also can reduce the human and animal power a lot. I even tried it myself that day. , it’s a good thing!”

"Then if it is implemented, wouldn't it make farming more convenient?"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Ma Zhou once said that if this thing is promoted, the yield per mu of the Tang Dynasty will be increased by at least [-]%!"

Changsun Wugou couldn't help but exclaimed, an increase of [-]%, that was quite a progress!
If this is really the case, Lin Heng’s contribution is indispensable. Even if the reward is ten times more than this, it would not be an exaggeration!
But it seems that Quyuanli has not spread among the people yet?
Thinking of this, Changsun Wugou immediately understood. I can only say that His Majesty's little thoughts in this regard are quite interesting.

Li Shimin suddenly said with a straight face: "It can only be said that this person is still somewhat skilled in these wonderful and obscene skills, but he has no great ambitions and no talent for governing the country, so it is difficult for him to achieve great things."

Changsun Wugou smiled slightly and said: "Yes, yes, your Majesty is right."

Hualin Township, Linjiazhuang.

When he received the edict, Lin Heng was confused.

How did your Majesty know about Qu Yuuli?

You didn’t say you wanted to dedicate Qu Yuuli to the country?
Moreover, the Qu Yuan Li was only used in Linjiazhuang in the past two days, and it has not yet become popular outside!
Lin Heng couldn't help but feel a little confused. The key was that it happened so suddenly that he didn't understand it for a while.

Judging from the meaning of this edict, he took the initiative to hand over Quyuanli to the country for popularization, so he was rewarded?

He had never thought about making profit through this Quyuanli. After all, it was the people all over the world who would benefit from its popularization.

Although the Tang Dynasty today has strong national power and sufficient food and grass, the fatigue of the lower class people is obvious.

For example, here in Hualin Township, the yield of a single acre of land is less than [-] kilograms, and a family of three has to work hard to cultivate more than [-] acres to survive.

The straight-shaft plow is laborious, but it is several times easier to use a curved-shaft plow. Moreover, the land can be cultivated thinner and looser, which will also allow crops to grow better.

This was originally a good thing. Although Lin Heng had no grand ambition to benefit the world, he would be happy to see it if it could reduce some of the burden on the people.

But how did the news of Qu Yuuli reach His Majesty's ears?
Lin Heng couldn't help but think of Li Ningxi and Li Lizhi who visited yesterday. It should be them.

Yesterday, he also told Li Ningxi the principle and structure of the Quyuanli in detail in the manor. His wife's eyes gleamed when she heard it, and she praised him for a long time.

Being praised by the woman he liked naturally satisfied his vanity. Lin Heng laughed for a long time in his dream at night.

Anyway, now that the deal is done, there is no need to think about it anymore.

He immediately saw the title and fiefdom, Ruyang Founding County Prince?
The county magistrate was probably a fifth-rank official in the Tang Dynasty. Although his title was usually empty and he only received a certain salary, it was enough.

What is more interesting is the fiefdom.

Ruyang was the jurisdiction of Yuzhou in later generations, and Yuzhou is today's Runan.

Lin Heng couldn't help but laugh. He was clearly trying to force Li Ningxi to overpower him!
