The eldest daughter of the emperor, she began to build a city wildly

Chapter 178
This time everyone will be proud, they are such a powerful Imperial Guard, they had to ask the Shence Army to help them in the fight just now, no matter who came to talk to them, they ignored them and made them look down on them.

Even Zhao Guang leaned in front of Wu Chong and started to make friends. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a weapon, he was very curious.

"Brother, don't drink." Zhao Guang walked in front of Wu Chong with the wine bag.

Wu Chong dragged Mr. Wang out from under the carriage, smoothed the horse, and tidied up the carriage, "I don't want to drink anymore. I have to drive the carriage for Her Royal Highness tomorrow."

Drinking a few degrees of wine will not delay driving, Wu Chong just doesn't want to talk to him.

Before, Zhao Guang always regarded Wu Chong as a coachman for Su Tang. Sometimes he asked him to raise horses, and sometimes he asked him to feed water. It was Su Tang who said that he would not let them haggle, so he endured all the way. Now it's finally over.

Zhao Guang was not annoyed, and stuffed the wine bag into Wu Chong's arms, "I didn't know your abilities before, Her Royal Highness's safety is so important, I really don't feel at ease handing it over to someone I don't know well, we are all for Her Royal Highness For safety's sake."

He was a palace doctor, Zhongling Ling, a high-ranking official, and he had already talked about this, so Wu Chong couldn't show his face any more, so he took a sip of wine and returned the wine bag to him, "Drinking is drinking, I don't care about anything else. Do not know at all."

"Just tell me why your iron bumps caught fire?"

"do not know"

"Where did that come from?"

"do not know"

"What is it used for?"

"do not know"

"Is it useful?"

"I don't know. It's easy to use." I don't know if I said it fluently, and I turned back after halfway through it. Didn't you see whether it works or not today?you still need to ask.

Zhao Guang knew that there was nothing to ask, "Why don't you lend me one to have a look, and I'll return it to you tomorrow."

"That can't be done, if it gets blown up in bed, it's not a joke." Wu Chong left after finishing speaking, not here to listen to his nonsense.

The curious imperial guards greeted the Shence Army all night without asking why.

Su Tang woke up, packed up his things and set off, and found that today's team has undergone a subtle change. First, the Shence Army, who was squeezed at the back, can now follow the convoy side by side with the Imperial Guards.

Things like exploring the road ahead, looking for water sources, and hunting have also become done in turn.

Obviously, after yesterday's battle, the strength of the Shence Army has been highlighted, and it has been respected by the imperial guards. People who practice martial arts like them respect those who are capable.

Adding on Su Tang's danger detector, the group headed towards the capital all the way, with such force that no one could take her life.

As she got closer and closer to the capital, the capital was in an uproar at this time, and she couldn't sit still at all, especially in today's court, a verbal war was launched against Su Tang.

"Father, Princess Yongle was collaborating with the enemy and treasoning the country back then, and she confessed the crime herself, so she should be punished. It was the father who cared about the friendship between father and daughter, spared her life, and sent her to the border fiefdom. Now he suddenly called her back to Beijing. Whatever is not good for Leng Anguo." The second prince stepped forward and said bluntly to the person above the throne.

All the civil and military officials in the hall carefully observed the scene in front of them and judged the current situation.

The emperor called Princess Yongle back with an edict, and no one knew why, before he could understand what the emperor was thinking, it was best to keep his mouth shut and observe carefully.

"Your Majesty." The prime minister with a white beard on the other side stepped forward, "Princess Yongle's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason could not be confirmed with just a few letters last year, and Princess Yongle went to the fief at her own request, so as to prove herself Innocent, now that a year has passed, Princess Yongle has kept herself safe at the border, and has not overstepped, so she should call Princess Yongle back to Beijing."

The second prince was quite disdainful of the prime minister's remarks, "There is no overstepping? All ministers must have heard that Princess Yongle called herself the daughter of destiny at the border. Now that her father is still in good health, she dares to call herself destiny. Isn't that true?" It is clear that you want to rebel and inherit the throne, is this also called keeping yourself safe?"

The ministers below nodded after hearing this. Only His Majesty can call it the fate of destiny. Princess Yongle claims that she is the destiny of destiny, and she is really treasonous.

With sword eyebrows drawn into the temples, wearing a dark gold dragon robe, sitting on a dragon chair, with slightly drooping eyelids looking down at Wan Sheng, with no expression on his face, he just quietly listened to the argument between the second prince and the prime minister with his hands clasped. I can't guess the emperor's mind.

"The minister has sent people to Yanyang County to investigate. The title of Daughter of Destiny is not Princess Yongle's self-proclaimed name, but the praise of the people to the princess. It can be seen that Princess Yongle is diligent in government and loves the people at the border, and is deeply respected by the people. I present it." Shouted outside the hall.

After a while, someone came up to the hall with a tray, and the prime minister introduced it to the emperor and all civil and military officials one by one, "This is potatoes and sweet potatoes. Potatoes can produce thirty stones per mu, and sweet potatoes can produce fifty stones per mu." , You can plant two crops a year, I don’t need to say anything, you bureaucrats should know what this means, I heard that the people in Yanyang City have these two crops, and there is no starvation.”

"Oh my God, fifty shi. The common people planted an acre of land that can produce five shi of grain. God opened his eyes. How could it be possible for fifty shi." Those ministers who shrank their heads and dared not speak were in an uproar.

As the court officials of Leng'an Kingdom, of course they know what this means. Leng'an Kingdom is bordered by Chenyang Kingdom in the north and Xizhao Kingdom in the south. The Three Kingdoms are in constant war.
Years of fighting, in order to support the frontier army, Leng'an had to keep increasing taxes on the people, resulting in many people not having enough food to eat, freezing to death and starving to death.

But they have no choice. The perennial war consumes a lot of money and food. If they don't increase taxes to support the frontier army, they will only end in a worse situation after the iron cavalry from other countries step into Leng'an country and wantonly massacre their families.

While delivering food to the frontier army, at the same time, we must control the strength to leave enough rations for the people.

Otherwise, if the common people are forced to rise up one after another, it will be real internal and external troubles. Therefore, it is not easy for these civil and military officials to weigh both sides and live carefully.

Now that the weather is not beautiful, and there is a severe drought in the south, it is also a place that needs money and food, but they don't have so much food, and they have long been worried like ants on a hot pot.

If the output of potatoes and sweet potatoes is really so large, one year of planting can equal the output of ten years, then they will no longer have to worry about not having enough food. At that time, not only the frontier soldiers will have food, but the common people will also be able to eat enough.

Food, the most important thing for the country, is also the most important thing for the people.

The prime minister picked up a blueprint again, "This is called a waterwheel, and it is a large-scale irrigation tool. Although we have been committed to building water conservancy, allowing rivers to pass through more areas and opening up farmland, there are still many highlands. , the fields far away from the river cannot be taken into account,
If there are water trucks to guide the river water to places and highlands that are far from the water source, how much more fertile land can be cultivated and how much food can be cultivated in Leng'an Kingdom, I believe His Majesty and all the officials will have success in their hearts. Calculate. "

"Princess Huang Zhang discovered such a high-yield grain and invented the waterwheel, which can feed the people of the world. I think it is reasonable to be called the daughter of destiny by the people." The prime minister cupped his hands at the emperor on the dragon chair.
