My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 652 Western Regions
"Haha, I can't stay for that long. I'll stay here for three to five years. The queen mother must go to Anxi to find me in person. Just don't worry, sister-in-law, son-in-law, let's go to the cotton cloth workshop."

The cotton cloth workshop in Anxi Duhu Mansion is very large. Here in Nancheng, according to Cheng Huailiang, there are more than 2 weavers here, not to mention other things. The laborers brought from Chang'an at that time could not pick out such Many weavers were recruited in the Western Regions.

It was only when Li Zhi entered the cotton cloth workshop that he first saw the size of the collective workshops of the Tang Dynasty.

The chirping and chirping sound of weaving rang in my ears, and the looms in the shed were busy with passion.

The female workers carried the yarn and walked between the various sheds. Li Zhi really saw the faces of many women from the Western Regions, and their figures, well, now that Anxi is too cold, they are wearing thick clothes, which is not particularly obvious.

However, even if he was wearing such thick clothes, it could be seen from the bloated clothes that his figure was definitely not bad.

I didn't see any beauties from the Western Regions in the Protectorate's Mansion, but there are quite a few here. Li Zhi felt at ease. When he came to the Western Regions, Li Zhi's most important purpose was to see the beauties from the Western Regions.

In the past, Li Zhi couldn't get enough of watching Western Region Dance, Dunhuang Flying Apsaras, and those beautiful stars from the Western Region on TV. Now he can finally watch it up close, and it doesn't even matter if he gets started.

After all, I am the emperor, and these are my own people, so what, there is no woman in history that the emperor likes, and I can't get it.

But at this time, business matters, Li Zhi still knows what he is here for.At this time, I walked around a few workshops at random and looked at the cotton cloth that had just been woven. These cotton cloths were still extremely hard and did not feel very good. They needed post-processing before they could be worn on people.

"My son-in-law, sister Huang, I didn't expect this workshop to be so large. I don't think you can find such a large silk weaving workshop in Jiangnan."

"Your Majesty wants to ask Concubine Xiao Shu, she is the most familiar with matters in Jiangnan."

"It's a pity that I didn't bring Concubine Shu here. Otherwise, let her see this scene and promote it in Jiangnan. Now Datang's tax burden is more than half dependent on Jiangnan."

Li Zhi looked at the orderly work here, and walked around the workshop. Unknowingly, Li Zhi also sighed in his heart. With a cotton cloth workshop of this scale, it is no wonder that cotton cloth can also supply Chang'an in addition to supplying the army during the Chinese New Year.

However, Li Zhi was stunned by the production of cotton in the Western Regions. He thought it would only happen in two or three years, but this is only the first year of large-scale planting, and that's it.

The Western Regions is worthy of being the largest cotton producing area in the world in later generations. To grow cotton here is really the right time, place and people, and everything is available.

Li Zhi walked to the warehouse area, the cotton cloth piled up here is like a hill, some weavers are sorting and cutting here, and sorting the cotton cloth, Li Zhi saw a very slim figure here, he was wearing winter clothes, so he dared not I wondered what would happen if she was dressed like Dunhuang Flying Apsaras.

With his temperament, he just walked over and patted the other person on the shoulder. He really didn't feel embarrassed at all.

When the other party turned around, a very special and likable woman from the Western Regions appeared before Li Zhi's eyes.

"Who are you, why are you filming me?"

The Han nationality of the other party seems a bit crappy, but this is not surprising, after all, how long has the Anxi Protectorate Mansion been built, and it is rare for the other party to be able to speak Chinese. I am afraid that if she speaks a bunch of dialects from the Western Regions, then Li Zhi will be embarrassed up.

"Don't be unreasonable, he is the current emperor."

There, Cheng Huailiang hurriedly reprimanded, fearing that the people in the workshop would offend His Majesty.

"Ah, Di Liguna has met His Majesty. I didn't know you were His Majesty. Please forgive me."

"Okay, those who don't know are innocent, your name is very special."

Di Liguna was a little embarrassed at once, what's so special about this name, isn't it that all the girls here have this name.Compared with the names of Han women, it is very special, but in the Western Regions, this name is very common!

Oh, by the way, many Han women have no names yet.

"Your Majesty, my name is very common!"

"Haha, to me, it's very special."

Di Liguna looked at Li Zhi, and couldn't help but feel dizzy.

There, Cheng Huailiang pulled his daughter-in-law away very sensiblely. Before Princess Qinghe could react, she heard her son-in-law whisper in her ear that His Majesty will not leave here for the time being.

"Huailiang, why are you pulling me out?"

"Don't pull you out, do you want His Majesty to drive you out? You didn't look at Di Liguna in the eyes of His Majesty."

"Have it?"

"You can't see it, but my son-in-law can see it clearly."

"Then what is His Majesty doing in there now?"

"What are you talking about, you little brother, don't you know what you are best at?"

Princess Qinghe pulled her son-in-law, and the two of them went to the garment warehouse, where all the ready-made cotton coats for soldiers were piled up like a mountain.

As for the cotton cloth warehouse, Li Zhi and Di Liguna talked for a while, and they had long since said that the woman from the Western Regions was blushing, and Xia Fei didn't dare to look at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi didn't care about the girl's shyness at this time, he had already put his arms around Di Liguna's waist, and pushed her down into a pile of cotton cloths.

"Your Majesty, you are about to let go of Guna. Guna still has things to do!"

"Accompanying me is what you should do most now."

Li Zhi's strong arms are something that Di Liguna can't push away. Li Zhi looked at her, and this girl laughed. She really looks like those women who came out of the Western Regions in later generations. , but also has its own characteristics.

When Li Zhi thought of this, his hands felt a little faster. After a while, the cotton cloth covered the two of them. When Li Zhi got up again, the sunset glow on the face of the woman from the Western Regions was already strong.

"In a while, I will ask the imperial sister to bring you to the Duhu Mansion. During this period of time, you will serve me in the Duhu Mansion."

"Can Guna go to Chang'an?"

"That depends on whether the person you are serving is comfortable or not? When you feel uncomfortable, you will come back here."

The Protectorate of the Western Regions has four military towns under its jurisdiction, Qiuci, Khotan, Shule, and Suiye. These four military towns are all equipped with heavy troops.

The Western Regions at this time are very special. Although the Tang Dynasty set up the Anxi Protectorate here and stationed heavy troops, there are still large and small countries here. These countries all submit to the Tang Dynasty, but they also have some autonomy.

The state system of each small country is still basically preserved, just like in Journey to the West, Tang Seng passed through many countries and had to go through various procedures to clear the Wendi.

These countries can be said to be the vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, and the fan countries are generally, but they are closer than these vassal states in the traditional sense.

Li Zhi came to the Anxi Protectorate, and before the third day, he received invitations from many small countries.
