After all, it is a new temple, so naturally there will be a temple fair.

This has become a new business district in Chang'an City.

Extremely noisy.

Crowded.

Crowds of people.

The vendors were smiling from ear to ear.

This temple fair really made them a small fortune.

The people were also dancing excitedly. Such a lively event made countless people relax.

The temple fair lasted for three or four days.

However, no one expected that a snowstorm would interrupt the temple fair.

That’s right!

It was a sudden snowstorm!

This made both the common people and landlord officials inside and outside Chang'an extremely surprised and confused.

Even Li Shimin never imagined that the weather would be so abnormal this year.

Now, it's only mid-October.

According to usual experience, if it gets cold it starts in November, and if it snows heavily, it will be at the end of November at the earliest.

Logically speaking, this is absolutely not the case.

After all, it's still autumn in mid-October.

It's a bit colder in the morning and evening, but it's still very comfortable and warm at noon.

But this time, it completely disrupted everyone's thoughts.

Tai Chi Palace.

Li Shimin stood in front of the palace door and tightened his clothes.

The sudden change caught him, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, by surprise.

To be honest, he was really relaxed in the past few days. He thought that the world was completely peaceful, everything was singing and dancing, and there was good in the world.

But this time, all his fantasies were shattered and he was completely brought back to reality.

The Tang Dynasty was still the Tang Dynasty that suffered many disasters.

But you must not float!

The King of Chu is not floating yet, why did he start to drift?

On the ground, thick snow has already formed.

Although it is night now, it doesn't feel like night at all.

Snow makes the night feel like daytime.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

"Why did it suddenly snow at this time?"

Li Shimin frowned.

Behind him, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui all looked at each other and didn't know how to answer.

How could they know this?

"His Majesty!"

Wei Zheng thought for a long time and then slowly said: "Your Majesty, the weather is just a little abnormal."

"It's not strange! After all, we can't control when God wants it to snow."

Wei Zheng's voice was low.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Changsun Wuji also spoke in agreement: "It's just that the heavy snowfall this time was too sudden. Your Majesty, let's not think about why the weather suddenly snowed and cooled down. Instead, we have to think about how to provide disaster relief."

"That's right, Your Majesty, the auxiliary machine and Wei Zheng are right. We can't control this, but we have to control the lives and deaths of the people."

"The temperature dropped suddenly, almost overnight, and the people were not prepared at all."

"Thick clothes, charcoal, food, etc. will definitely be in urgent need, so think about this!"

"Otherwise...if there is a large area of ​​frostbite and starvation, the people will definitely be discouraged again."

Du Ruhui said softly.

Li Shimin took a deep breath.

He looked up at the sky.

The snow is still continuing, as if it is about to fall this day, but after all, it is not as urgent as it was during the day.

It has shrunk a lot and looks like it is about to stop.

This is good news.

"There is still food in the court."

"Not to mention, a lot of Turkic cattle and sheep were sent from Yunzhou City, which happened to be a great supplement to us."

Li Shimin thought for a moment and said.

Previously, the sale of the Glazed Wolf King cost the Turks millions of tons of grain. Although part of it was used as military rations, for the war in northern Xinjiang, the military rations did not consume much.

Not to mention, after the Turks were defeated, although Li Ji and the others returned to the city, Yunzhou City had organized many large armies to go to the Turkic grasslands.

After all, although Jieli Khan and others were captured alive, there are still many remaining Turkic tribes.

Of course Datang will not let them breathe!

However, for Datang, the situation was almost one-sided. There was no need for a coach like Li Ji to be in charge. The lieutenants below could organize it.

After repeated attacks and sweeps, numerous cattle and sheep were captured, most of which were sent to Chang'an.

These can also be used as a large part of supplementary food.

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "There is no shortage of food."

"The people are in urgent need of something to keep warm."

"But now, there is still some time before the heating in the past. Many people have not prepared charcoal for winter. Of course, a larger part of the people cannot afford it at all."

"Even some wealthy families haven't had time to purchase these things."

Wei Zheng said sadly.

In November, it’s time for people to buy things for winter.

Now, it's only mid-October and it's already snowing, and the temperature has dropped rapidly, which is really a bit unexpected.

"Yes, we must find a way to do this, otherwise the people will really not be able to survive." Changsun Wuji said.

There was suddenly silence in Tai Chi Palace.

Only the north wind howling outside the palace, accompanied by snowflakes, reminds people all over the world that winter has arrived.

After several breaths, the four people raised their heads almost simultaneously.

Their eyes flashed with excitement.

"Coal!"

"The charcoal in Prince Chu's Mansion!!"

Li Shimin yelled.

My throat is hoarse and my voice is broken.

"Yes, it's coal! This coal is extremely easy to make, and it burns extremely well."

"This stuff is all over the mountains around Chang'an!"

Wei Zheng rubbed his hands and almost jumped up.

"Who says it's not the case? Tomorrow, Your Majesty, let's go to King Chu's palace tomorrow!"

"Take a good look at how this coal is made, and then tell the people!"

"The charcoal only needs to be changed into a honeycomb shape to produce huge amounts of heat, which is enough for the common people to use."

Du Ruhui yelled.

Li Shimin took a deep breath and nodded.

"Okay! Let's go to the other courtyard of Prince Chu's Mansion tomorrow!"

Li Shimin had already made up his mind.
