My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 302 Cotton
The war horse ran all the way to the gate of Taiji Palace, Li Zhi got off his horse and hugged County Lord Guide off his horse.

"Cousin, wait for me here, I'll be back in a while, don't run around."

Li Zhi gave a warning, saw his cousin nodded, hummed, and then rode into the palace again.

At Wanchun Palace, I should have kept some of my things, and I can still find a few clothes. It is impossible to wear the prince's clothes on Chang'an Street, but some casual clothes are fine.

When Li Zhi passed through the Changle Gate, the Hongwen Museum of the History Museum, and entered the Wanchun Palace, the maids serving here all looked at King Jin curiously.Why did King Jin who just left come back?

"Do you still have the king's clothes?"

Li Zhi asked, and the maid hurriedly replied, and then went to help Li Zhi bring the clothes.

Li Zhi found a dress that seemed to be the most ordinary, but it was also made of the finest silk in Suzhou and Hangzhou. His clothes, no matter how ordinary they looked, were actually the top luxury goods of this era. There is no way, prince!

This is probably a low-key luxury. Li Zhi changed his clothes and threw them to the maid who just brought them over.

"Send this body to Prince Jin's Mansion."

"Yes, Your Highness, this servant obeys."

I have a lot of clothes, but the prince usually wears only a few pieces of clothes that represent his status. If he doesn't live in Wanchun Palace in the future, he won't stay here.

Li Zhi got on his horse again, looked at the pear tree in the yard again, waited until August, and picked the pears when he came back.

Li Zhi watched the pear tree bloom and wither and bear fruit, and the fruit grew day by day.

Passing by the pear tree, Li Zhi was able to reach a few pears on the tree because he was riding a horse. Li Zhi touched it and felt that this tree was close to him.

"You guys, look at this pear tree on weekdays, don't let anyone steal the pears."

"Yes, Your Highness, we must be optimistic about Your Highness."

Li Zhi raised his whip and left, the horse had already left Wanchun Hall.

Li Zhi suddenly looked in the direction of the Shangyi Bureau, and looked at the clothes on his body.

During the Tang Dynasty, a small amount of cotton was planted in some places in the frontier, but it was far from the scale of common planting in later generations.

Did you ask someone to find the cotton in the frontier, and then find the mother, and ask the mother to agree to plant a large amount of cotton in the Anxi Protectorate.

The Anxi Protectorate's Mansion, this geographical location, happens to grow cotton, and the best cotton-producing area in the world in later generations is within the territory of the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion.

If this can be done, it will be a big deal.

At this time in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the textiles generally used in society were mainly silk and hemp, the rich used silk, and ordinary people used hemp.

However, no matter silk or linen, there are some natural defects, for example, they cannot keep out the cold well.The most commonly used cold-proof clothing materials in later generations are mostly cotton products, and the fillings are also various cotton fillings, as well as duck down and goose down.

As long as the Anxi Protectorate can grow cotton on a large scale, the people in the north will not only be able to use more materials for their clothing, but also winter will not be so difficult.

Of course, Li Zhi's small coffers would swell wildly, as would the queen mother's.

Li Zhi was riding a horse, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this could be done.

This is actually a daily and economic gain.

There is another one, that is, by planting cotton on a large scale in the Anxi Protectorate, Li Zhi can get his father to send more troops to the Anxi Protectorate.

The Anxi Protectorate's Mansion covers several million square kilometers of land. In the future, the Northwest of China will be completely covered by the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion, even far beyond the borders of later generations.

At this time, the Anxi Protectorate Mansion ruled over hundreds of countries in the Western Regions, large and small.Ever since Hou Jun gathered his army to destroy Gaochang and built the Anxi Protectorate to deter the countries in the Western Regions, the Silk Road has become more and more prosperous, and the status of the Anxi Protector has naturally become more and more important.

But generally speaking, the number of troops stationed in the Anxi Dufu Mansion has actually been small. In history, there are [-] Anxi troops who have deterred hundreds of countries in the Western Regions. It sounds very exciting, but on the other hand, it can also be seen The military here is weak.

Li Zhi is determined to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty after Taizong, so he must make arrangements at this time.

Strengthening the military strength of Anxi Dufu is a very important thing for Li Zhi.

Whether it is to increase the deterrence of the countries in the Western Regions, or to prepare for the attack on the Western Turks in the future.Even being able to drink horses from the Rhine River and sail to the Mediterranean Sea one day, this can be an inexhaustible achievement for Li Zhi.

As a time traveler, if the mind is still limited to this era, then the realm is a bit small.After all, the world map is imprinted deep in Li Zhi's mind. Now that this era has come, it is inappropriate not to walk around.

With the national power of the Tang Dynasty at this time, with the strength of the Mingguang Armor, the sharpness of the Mo Dao, and the sharpness of the Xuanjia Army, if he is an emperor, he must do some heroic things.Wherever I set foot, it is the land of my Tang Dynasty.

The royal conquest, making all the kingdoms submit, those so-called kings kneeling in front of him, kissing their toes, sending their daughters to Chang'an to serve him, is the heart that an emperor should have.What does it mean to have the world in mind, that's exactly what it is.

Since heaven asked me to come to Tang Dynasty once, I have to change some things.I am only 15 years old at this time, and I can change many things.

Li Zhi was thinking wildly, he had already arrived at the gate of Taiji Palace.

The Lord Guide County has been waiting for her here, Li Zhi rode to her side, she looked at Li Zhi.

"Cousin, did you change your clothes when you returned to the palace?"

"Don't startle the people, don't disturb the people, it's too sensational to walk across Chang'an Avenue wearing the prince's clothes."

Li Zhi stretched out his hand, and County Lord Guide held him tightly.Li Zhi pulled her on the horse.

Just now when I rushed from Daming Palace to Taiji Palace, my cousin was sitting in front of me, sitting opposite me, which made Li Zhi almost unbearable.

Now it's a lesson from the past, and a lesson from the future. Let my cousin sit behind me at this time, hug me tightly from behind, and don't let her mess around in my arms again.

There, the county lord of Guide had already hugged Li Zhi tightly, and Li Zhi's horse galloped wildly in the imperial city.

Li Zhi passed through the imperial city, and came to Honglu Temple on purpose. Honglu Temple is one of the nine temples in the Tang Dynasty, and it is mainly responsible for foreign affairs.

This is also the place where the Tang Dynasty received foreign envoys. When Li Zhi came here, he alarmed Da Honghe and other officials. Da Honghe and several officials rushed over to pay a visit to the King of Jin. Li Zhi did not dismount because the cousin Still sitting behind him, it is not easy to get off the horse.Just let Da Honglu and the others do not need to be too polite.

"The king came here just to ask one thing, do you know about cotton?"

Several Honghe Temple officials shook their heads one after another. Li Zhi saw him and immediately realized that he might have asked the wrong person.

"Da Honglu, find some officials who often go outside, especially in the border areas."
