Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 488
"In addition to these two points, there is another benefit!"

Xue Lang said, Princess Pingyang smiled sweetly, and continued: "To my father and the sage who will succeed to the throne in the future."

Xue Lang laughed, for the tacit understanding between the two, and for the wisdom of Her Highness the Princess.Xue Lang said: "Yes, it is Mingzhi. Fight for the world... This world is a great river and mountain, a vast continent. We don't play with them, we go to the sea. The magnificent sea has endless treasures and wealth to support our family. It’s more than enough, we don’t need to fight for anything, we can play by ourselves, and we can play well, and live a stable life of our own!”

Princess Pingyang nodded, with great interest, and said with burning eyes: "One of these benefits, I would like to invite the establishment of a navy, let alone so many benefits! I will write a briefing later, and ask for the establishment of a Taizhou navy. "

Xue Lang said: "By the way, let's build another shipyard. I know the structure of a ship. However, I have only played with models. To build a large ship, you need a skilled craftsman."

"Model?"

"It's a kind of children's toy. According to the structure of the big ship, it is scaled down and made into a toy for children."

Xue Lang explained, and Princess Pingyang wondered: "Can children play with such confidential things?"

Xue Lang said: "Because the florist has developed a more advanced ship, the eliminated secrets are no longer secrets, and can only be made into toys for children to play with!"

Princess Pingyang suddenly wondered, "Flower growers are so advanced?"

Xue Lang recalled the convenience of modern times, and sighed: "Yes, it is much, much more advanced than Datang."

"Why did Lang Jun come back?"

Xue Lang smiled, looking at Princess Pingyang's beautiful face, he felt blessed in his heart: "Perhaps... it is to meet you!"

Princess Pingyang was stunned, her eyes were light, she looked away, as if she was ashamed: "I am looking for people to recruit people, such as helmsmen and sailors who are good at navigation, we need to recruit in advance."

This is obviously a change of subject, let's talk about him!
Xue Lang chuckled, but didn't point it out. In fact, what he said was from his heart.The time travel is inexplicable, but he is willing to accept it if it is for the sake of meeting and getting to know Her Highness the Princess.

Afterwards, Princess Pingyang wrote Shu Zou in her own handwriting, asking the sage to prepare for the construction of a navy.At this time, people still put land power as the most important thing, and they paid far less attention to the sea than later generations.

And the fact is the same, although Datang has just been established, looking at the whole world, at this time, in terms of prosperity and civilization, which country can compare with Datang!
At this time, the Tang Dynasty was still the real kingdom of heaven. If you told the sage that the enemy came from the sea, the sage would definitely treat him like a fool.

Saints look down on the sea, but Xue Lang is different from Princess Pingyang, they just want to manage a stable place to stand, and it doesn't matter whether the sea power or the land power.What matters is sustainable development!

Ten days after Princess Pingyang’s play was sent up, the sage gave her a reply. The sage approved Princess Pingyang’s request to build a navy, and even generously granted her [-] quotas and five large ships.

Compared with the [-] navy conscription quota, these five large ships are very insignificant, but these are the only ones the saint has, if you want more... OK, the saint can give the craftsmen and let Princess Pingyang build it herself.It can also be seen from this that Datang does not attach great importance to sea power.However, this is also good, it is more convenient for Xue Lang to plan and operate.

After the sage's approval, it was already the turn of autumn and winter, and Xue Lang's task of brewing wine also needed to be started.Before starting, taking advantage of the gap, Xue Lang expended his mind and wrote a plan to Princess Pingyang on the basis of the previous discussion, and asked her to organize the staff to implement it, while Xue Lang went to work.

Princess Pingyang sent people to build another courtyard next to Xue Lang's residence, which was connected with Xue Lang's house. Although it was not as luxurious as Princess Chang'an's residence, it was not a problem to accommodate all the accompanying people.

When Xue Lang went out to work, Princess Pingyang handled official duties at home.When Xue Lang came back, the two of them took a walk in the yard hand in hand. Without the turmoil of personnel in Chang'an City, the life was really quiet. Xue Lang only felt that this was the most relaxed and happy life he had after traveling through the Tang Dynasty, and his mood was more relaxed than ever.

The winter in the south of the Yangtze River is more humid than that in Chang'an, and it is bitingly cold. I am afraid that Her Highness the Princess will not be used to it. When building the house, Xue Lang led the craftsmen in the Princess Mansion to lay earth dragons to make the winter easier.

Her Royal Highness's waist is getting thicker and her belly is getting bigger and bigger. After winter, Su Han also came from Chang'an, along with the rituals given by the saints, as well as the rituals given to Princess Pingyang and Xue Lang by the palaces in Beijing.Only then did Xue Lang realize that it was the end of the year, and the seven years of Wude would soon be over!

This year, he has a beloved woman in his life, this woman will give him a child, treat him with affection and righteousness, treat him like a princess, abandon the comfortable life in Chang'an City, and accompany him to live in Yuezhou, sharing joys and sorrows .

Although there was an order from a sage, Jiang Lin still put down his wife and children and came to Suzhou to work without saying a word; Su Han came all the way from Chang'an City in the cold weather to protect the safety of his wife and children... That kind of people?How lucky Xue Lang is, in addition to his wife who shares weal and woe, he also has brothers and friends who share weal and woe.

When rubbing Her Royal Highness's cramped feet in the middle of the night, Xue Lang expressed his feelings: "I'm actually quite lucky!"

Princess Pingyang was wrapped in fur and covered with a quilt, she let Xue Lang rub her feet, and said, "Why did Youyang say that?"

Xue Lang said what was in his heart, and Princess Pingyang couldn't help but soften his eyes a little, and said: "Because it is Youyang, that's why I have today's companionship. Youyang only needs to know the friendship."

Xue Lang nodded, remembering the gift from Pei Yunzhao that he had received during the day, compared to friendship, he felt that the gift was a bit thicker, so he asked the question.Princess Pingyang said indifferently: "Pei Yunzhao's grandfather, Pei Ju, is highly respected and respected by saints. His father, Pei Xuanji, has always been well-respected. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the saint recruited Pei Xuanji as a member of the East Palace to assist the elder brother. Pei Yunzhao expressed his kindness. When I entered the officialdom, I worked next to the sage at the beginning, and I was an old acquaintance, and I had some friendship. Therefore, this ceremony is not too abrupt, and I have already made Chuxue double it. Thank him for looking after you in Yuezhou."

So it is!Anyone who has been in contact with Her Majesty the Princess, as long as she is not a straight male cancer patient, will definitely be impressed by Her Majesty's demeanor, so Pei Yunzhao's strange behavior when he saw the portrait of Princess Pingyang also makes sense.

Xue Lang secretly thought about his little thoughts, but it was inconvenient to express it to Princess Pingyang.Princess Pingyang glanced at him, her eyes and expression seemed to have seen through what he was thinking, which made Xue Lang feel a little guilty, coughed, and asked: "Does it still hurt? Doctors at flower growers say that pregnant women have leg cramps." It’s because of calcium deficiency, now that it’s winter, it’s not easy to go to sea, otherwise, if you can eat more fish and shrimp, it will be good for calcium supplementation.”

Princess Pingyang glanced at him with a half-smile, without breaking his little thought, and said: "It doesn't hurt. I once asked Princess Qin for advice. My situation is milder than when she was pregnant. Think about it. It is because of following You Yang's words, eating a lot of fish and shrimp."

Xue Lang helped her to lie down, helped her pull up the quilt, and watched her fall asleep again.
