Chapter 1502(1/2)
Li Laoer thinks Chang'an is boring and not fun.
"I can still run around in Taoxian County. In the palace, as soon as I started running, there were many people following me. They shouted to the king to be careful and stretched out their hands to protect... Do you know what I think this looks like? A group of people.
A hen protects a chick."
"I can punch them and make them cry, but I can't, otherwise Aniang will glare and Aye will deal with me. Hey! What do you think I should do? Rich!"
"Woof woof!"
In the palace, one person and one dog walked slowly. Behind them, a group of palace people followed, but they did not dare to get too close.
The prince was affable, but King De was completely different. He had a rather irritable temperament. If anyone made him unhappy, he would speak with his fists.
"Aye took my brother out and didn't take me with him. My mother said, Aye took my brother to endure hardships, but I'm not afraid of hardship. Why didn't Aye take me with him?"
"They all thought I was stupid, but I knew it a long time ago. I was taking a nap that time, and I heard Aye and Aniang say that although they are brothers, many things have to have boundaries and what is the limit... Isn't that right?
Are you worried that I will rebel in the future? Hey! Who taught you the word rebellion? It seems to be that Lang Shiren. Fugui, where did Lang Shiren go?"
"Woof woof!" The owner was not here, and no one took the rich and noble wildly, and it withered not long after. King De went to the prince's door and came out with it when he saw it. As for the swordsman, facing King De's invitation, his eyelids dropped.
Don't lift it.
Li Laoer tilted his head and squinted at the sun, "I always feel that Lang Shiren is dishonest. When dealing with dishonest people, Aye likes to watch them be proud, and when they are all proud, slap them to death. That's it.
Like... I punched..."
puff!
Li Laoer turned around and punched Fugui, and the fist stopped in front of Fugui's forehead. The strong wind blew Fugui's dog hair flying. He squinted his eyes happily, feeling the cool breeze.
The maids behind them screamed and stopped quickly, fearing that the old man would hit someone.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
A palace maid came from the front and shouted: "The Queen wants you to go."
"What are you going to do?" Li Laoer asked.
"Eat the fruit!"
"Hey! Woman, it's so troublesome!"
The queen is eating fruit.
Whenever the season comes, various places will pay tribute to some fruits, and the amount is very large. The emperor keeps some for himself, rewards some, and never wastes it. Only occasionally the queen will hear him say something... This is labor insurance, or something
High temperature allowance.
When Li Laoer entered the palace, the queen said angrily, "It's been exposed to the sun again. It looks like little black coals. Come here."
When Li Laoer went over, the queen asked someone to get a towel to wipe his sweat.
"Stand still!"
"I'm standing still."
"Raise your head!"
"Aniang, this is my face!"
"I know!"
Li Laoer, whose face was rubbed red, sat down to eat some fruit.
"Auntie, when will Aye come back?" Li Laoer asked filially.
"Probably...I don't know either." The queen was half in mood after eating the fruit, and couldn't help but feel that this son was here to collect debts.
"Queen, it is said that... many fields in Guanzhong are no longer taken care of!" Aunt Guan brought the latest news.
"Oh! Why?" The queen was in the mood to eat fruit.
"Those rich and powerful people said that there are no servants in the house and no one is cultivating the land. I am afraid that there will be no harvest this year." Guan Auntie said: "If you are mature in Guanzhong, you will be sufficient in the world. This is a saying passed down from our ancestors."
The queen took a bite of the fruit and said, "This is a counterattack!"
…
The weather is hot, but no one is taking care of the fields in Guanzhong.
"Many of those foreign slaves are willing to be tenant farmers, just hire them, but those people refuse. This is to hurt both parties." Liu Qing sneered.
"Yes! If there is a shortage of food in Guanzhong, there will be famine in the world!" Luo Cai scratched his head, "But they don't know that His Majesty is waiting for this!"
"His Majesty used to be domineering, but now he is reasonable in everything. What can I say..." Liu Qing thought for a moment.
"Convince people with virtue!" Luo Cai said with a smile.
"Yes, you can convince others with virtue." Liu Qing also smiled, "The reign name is Yongde, which is to convince people with virtue externally. It is the same with your own behavior. Look, I see! This Tang Dynasty is really full of virtues!"
"When will His Majesty come back?" Luo Cai asked.
"When Your Majesty is in Chang'an, those people will be afraid and dare not blatantly abandon the crops. I don't know when Your Majesty will come back. But thinking about it, he will definitely come back when he feels it is time to take action."
"Those poor people." Luo Cai shook his head.
…
The emperor has returned.
The father and son were tanned a lot, and the first thing they did when they returned to Chang'an was to find a place to eat.
"Let's go to Yuanzhou Ramen, son!" The dark-skinned emperor, who looked like a refugee, pointed to the signboard and said, "This is the brand created by my father back then."
"good!"
The father and son went in.
"welcome!"
The person who welcomed the guests was a woman, shouting towards the inside: "Two distinguished guests!"
"These are the rules made by my father back then." The emperor sighed a little.
"Two bowls of ramen, a plate of soy beef, and a plate of intestines. And..." The emperor looked at the menu on the wall and turned back to ask the prince, "What else does my son want to eat?"
The prince said: "How about adding some mutton soup!"
"Okay! That's it."
The father and son paid money, took the sign, and found a seat to sit down.
“The business of Wonju ramen has always been good!”
The emperor was somewhat pleased that the dividends from Yuanzhou Ramen would be sent to his home every year, but he never asked him to help.
This man knows more and more about propriety.
"I went to see it, and the crops were all drooping. If no one takes care of them, they will be sunk to death."
"Why doesn't anyone care?"
"It is said that all the slaves have been released, but there is no one at home!"
"Isn't it possible to hire tenant farmers? There are a lot more manpower in Chang'an recently, and the price is cheap."
Several diners did not leave even after finishing their meal, chatting about the latest news.
“Your ramen.”
When the father and son's ramen arrived, the emperor said, "Son, take a sip of the soup first to warm your stomach."
The prince imitated his father and did not use a spoon. Instead, he picked up a big bowl and made the sound of drinking soup without restraint.
"Isn't it beautiful?" the emperor asked.
"beautiful!"
"Those people! They just couldn't bear to let their slaves go free, so they left the crops alone!"
"If this is the case, I'm afraid there will be a famine in Guanzhong this year!"
"This matter was all caused by His Majesty, and His Majesty did not come forward."
"You said this. Is it wrong for Your Majesty not to make the people of the Tang Dynasty slaves?"
"I'm right, but let's forget the past? In this way, there will naturally be no slaves in the Tang Dynasty in a few decades. Now, if there is a famine, how many people will starve to death in Guanzhong? Don't forget, when there was a famine in Guanzhong, the emperors in those years
I am also taking all the civil and military officials and my family to Dongdu for a meal!"
"Why!"
"I don't know what your Majesty is thinking!"
"I heard that His Majesty is not in Chang'an."
"You still have the intention to go out?"
The prince glanced at his father and saw that his father was eating ramen attentively, savoring it very seriously.
"Eat noodles!" The emperor glanced at him.
"oh!"
