Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Chapter 82: Offering Treasures, Li Yuan's Shock
Li Yuan was deeply moved when he heard Wang Xuance's words. Although he knew that Wang Xuance had exaggerated what he said, Li Yuanji was still concerned about him after going to Lingnan, which was different from his usual practice. If he didn't feel moved, that would be a lie.

Who among his sons cares about him now? When they see him, they are like mice seeing a cat and are extremely scared. Only Li Yuanji, after his change, is someone who gets along with him without fear.

"San Hu is a thoughtful kid. He went to Lingnan by himself and still cares about me, an old man. Did he ever complain when he went to Lingnan?"

Li Yuan sighed for a while, but only for that moment, and then he regained his composure and was just like usual.

"Your Majesty, since I followed the King of Qi, I have always been by his side. The King of Qi has never complained to your Majesty, but has been developing people's livelihood and governing Lingnan. Now in Leizhou, the King of Qi is building a new Haikang City."

Wang Xuance only briefly mentioned what had been said, and Li Yuan did not ask any more questions.

However, it was then that Li Yuan noticed what Wang Xuance said, that Li Yuanji was developing people's livelihood. Thinking about what Wang Xuance had just said, Li Yuan had a strange look on his face. When did Li Yuanji know these things?
However, at this time, Li Yuan became interested in the so-called magical objects and small relaxing items that Li Yuanji sent him. After all, this was Li Yuanji's filial piety, and he also wanted to take a look.

“Haha, good, this is the King of Qi. Now that Lingnan has become his fiefdom, he should take up his responsibilities.

You can tell me later what the King of Qi did there. Now, please bring up the sacred objects and small items that the King of Qi asked you to bring."

Wang Xuance responded respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I have someone bring it to you. It is outside the palace. Your Majesty, please have someone bring it in."

Li Yuan smiled when he heard this and immediately looked outside the hall.

"Bring in the items that the King of Qi brought."

After a while, someone brought them in. Li Yuan was a little confused when he saw them, because these objects included an exquisite wooden box and some things made of wood he had never seen before, similar to tables and chairs.

After putting everything down, Wang Xuance began to introduce Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty, let me introduce these to you. The King of Qi prepared these for you to rest on a daily basis. These are reclining chairs. Sitting on them is very comfortable and they can rock slightly. When you are tired on weekdays, you can take a nap on them.

These are chairs, desks, inkstones, tables, etc. These are all made of huanghuali wood that was discovered by the King of Qi. This wood has a refreshing fragrance that is refreshing, and this wood is tough and light. Even over time, it will not crack or bend.

The color of this wood is golden and warm, and it will turn purple-red over time. The patterns on it are clear, like flowing clouds and water, and it is very beautiful.

This yellow rosewood is very similar to red sandalwood. After the King of Qi discovered this wood, he made these small items for your Majesty to rest on and asked me to bring them to your Majesty."

Li Yuan looked at the tables and chairs prepared by Li Yuanji and approved of them in his heart. Even if Wang Xuance hadn't said anything, he could see that the rosewood was also very good. When he saw the rocking chair, Li Yuan tried to sit on it.

After a moment, Li Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up. He approved of this chair. It was indeed very good for taking a nap. The only bad thing was that after lying on it, he didn't want to move at all, which could easily make people depressed.

After looking for a while, Li Yuan slowly spoke.

"The King of Qi is really thoughtful. He was able to discover this yellow rosewood and make such a table and chair. It's hard for him. Apart from these, there is nothing else, right?"

Li Yuan did feel a little warm. He knew a little about what kind of person Li Yuanji was. Now that these things had been sent to him from thousands of miles away, Li Yuan even wanted Li Yuanji to return to Chang'an.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xuance smiled mysteriously and took the exquisite wooden box in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the king has also sent a magical object, which I have come to present to your Majesty." Li Yuan placed his eyes on the wooden box in Wang Xuance's hand. He knew that the so-called magical object was this wooden box.

Wang Xuance opened the wooden box. Li Yuan looked carefully and saw a pile of snow-white things wrapped in silk in the wooden box. Then he looked at Wang Xuance.

Wang Xuance also understood Li Yuan’s meaning, so he spoke.

"Your Majesty, this is salt, newly made by the King of Qi. Because it is as white as snow, it is also called snow salt."

Li Yuan's pupils shrank. He grabbed a small handful and looked at it. Then he tried it again and was immediately shocked.

"You said this is the new salt made by the King of Qi?"

Li Yuan's expression fully demonstrated his disbelief. Didn't he know what kind of person Li Yuanji was?

This guy is good at eating salt, making new salt? Or is it this kind of salt with excellent taste and fine particles? Is it that Li Yuan hasn't woken up yet or is Wang Xuance joking with him?

Regarding those tables and chairs just now, Li Yuan also adhered to the principle of seeing but not saying anything. He really didn't believe that these were all made by Li Yuanji.

In Li Yuan's opinion, these must have been made by other people, and Li Yuanji directly claimed them. However, since Li Yuanji was the King of Qi and his fief was Lingnan, he did not say anything. After all, Li Yuanji had no outstanding achievements, and this could be regarded as adding to his achievements.

But he didn't believe in this salt at all. It was too outrageous and no one would believe it if he told others about it.

Wang Xuance knew what Li Yuan meant and immediately said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this salt was indeed made by the King of Qi, otherwise why didn't it exist before, but it was available when the King of Qi went to Lingnan?
This salt is difficult to make, but the King of Qi knows how good it is, so he asked me to bring a lot of it into the palace. The rest of the salt is outside the palace, and Your Majesty can send someone to get it at any time.

What I said is not false at all, and I dare not deceive Your Majesty. This salt was really made by the King of Qi."

After hearing this, Li Yuan gradually reacted and immediately laughed excitedly.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Sanhu can become so successful. Good, very good!

I like this salt very much. Not only the salt, but also these tables and chairs, I like them very much.

This time the King of Qi went to Lingnan, and there were big changes, but it was also good. This brat was not a decent person when he was in Chang'an. If I had known earlier, I should have sent him to Lingnan earlier. "

Li Yuan was talking about Li Yuanji, but Wang Xuance didn't respond, but just smiled.

Then Li Yuan's voice came again.

"How is the King of Qi doing in Lingnan now? Please tell me what the King of Qi has done since arriving in Lingnan. Is he living well there?"

Seeing that Li Yuan started to get to the point, Wang Xuance immediately began to tell Li Yuan about what Li Yuanji had done in Lingnan. Wang Xuance did not mention the ambush at this moment, but talked about Li Yuanji's development of Haikang.

When Li Yuan finished listening, he was truly moved. He was moved at how much Li Yuanji had changed. He was so willing to give up and endure such hardships. Especially his heart, which Li Yuan found even more rare.
