Opening the window, there was a patch of green plants outside the window, dotted with bright flowers as far as the eye could see. Li Shan hooked a chair over with his toes and sat here, staring blankly out of the window, as if admiring the scenery.
Mrs. Zhou on the side brought a cup of warm water over, and they slept together under the quilt. Naturally, they knew that the old lady was good at making tea, but my husband actually didn’t like to drink tea. He always drank a cup of warm water.
God knows what Li Shan drank the most in his previous life was tea, but it was just the most common fried green tea in the countryside.
Li Shan casually held Zhou's soft little hand and rubbed it, thinking about what he gained from yesterday's visit.
There are many benefits. First of all, he was granted the title of Duke of Guantao County, and his mother, Mrs. Zhu, was ecstatic... Li Shan felt that his mother was so happy, largely because Li Dewu was only an eighth-grade Zhengshi Lang.
Many friends of Li Kai, Wang Renbiao, and Zhang Wenguan have sent messages and are planning to come to congratulate him and be knighted in the name of Guantao. This is obviously aimed at Li Shan's contribution to planning the Shandong war.
The second step is to seal off 100 households. The Ministry of Household Affairs under the Shangshu Province has already sent an order to the Chang'an County Government. Chang'an ordered Li Qianyou to remove these 100 households soon. Soon, Zhujiagou was officially included in the Li family. , which is equivalent to the Zhuangzi of the Li family.
Thirdly, being worthy of being Li Yuan's uncle and nephew is also a benefit.
Although Li Yuan and his son may not take it seriously in the future, even though it is just a name, it can still bluff people.
Big things can't be solved, but small things can make a difference... In the future, no one will do something like Wang Renyou's inexplicable stumbling block again.
Li Shan silently calculated in his mind, and the fourth, fifth...it was a benefit to avoid Zhongshu Sheren.
Li Jiancheng was obviously interested in recruiting, but Li Shimin was watching with cold eyes. Li Shan felt that Ma Zhou and Ling Jing were coming up with bad ideas, and he wanted to win over Li Yuan.
During this period, a group of people were trained in the Imperial Medical Office... Li Shimin's character was determined. For at least the next twenty years, wars would continue.
Li Yuanqu counted with his fingers. In history, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he first attacked the Eastern Turks, then Tuyuhun and Xue Yantuo, and went all the way to the Western Regions to destroy Gaochang and set up the Anxi Protectorate, and then Tubo. There was no way for them to occupy the plateau. It was not easy to fight, even before he died, he personally conquered Goguryeo.
It is still necessary to train a group of battlefield first aid soldiers and battlefield nurses... Li Shan thought to himself that it was just a good time to be quiet during this period and try to avoid the whirlpool. After all, he did not play an important role in the battle for the heir.
The wind lingered in the courtyard, making the flowers and plants sway. It turned around and got into the house through the window, hitting his face, causing Li Shan to sigh slightly. From the time he followed Li Qianyou south to Shaanxi Province in September last year, he has been tormented enough. So much so that being the center of attention is really exhausting both physically and mentally.
"Langjun, Langjun."
Following the delicate shouting, Xiaoman trotted in carrying a basket and came close to Li Shan, "Look, Mr. Lang!"
Li Shan turned his head and Xiaoman was holding a bright red peach.
He tried to take a bite. It was not sweet, but it was quite moist and crispy. Li Shan ate it in a few bites, thinking that before entering Princess Pingyang's mansion, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and now he could eat peaches.
"Where did the peach come from?"
"Bianji sent it. There are many peach trees on the mountain. Bianji knows which peach has the sweetest one."
Li Shan chimed in casually and divided up seven or eight peaches, and the three of them quickly killed them... Well, in this dynasty, it was in the northwest, and many fruits might not be able to be eaten in this life.
For example, Li Shanting likes pineapple, bayberry, durian... and the fruits of this era may sound like they are original, but in fact they have not been cultivated, and their taste and sweetness are actually far different from those of later generations.
After going to wash his hands, Li Shan went out casually for a walk. Fan Shiyi and Zhu Ba were on duty today. They followed behind and did not dare to leave.
Standing at the foot of a small hill, Li Shan looked down at the round pond below. He heard the slight sound of water flowing in his ears. He turned to look at Dongshan. The winding aqueduct on the mountainside splashed a cloud of water mist from time to time.
"Zhu Ba, Zhujiagou is classified under a certain gate. Is there anyone in the village complaining?" Li Shan asked casually.
You must know that Zhujiagou became the Zhuangzi of the Li family, which means that it is no longer the property of the monks and needs to pay taxes. Although it is not counted as a source of soldiers for the government, once Li Shan goes into battle, Zhuangzi will be his relative.
guard.
Zhu Ba was very surprised and asked: "For such good things, I must thank you for your kindness. Who dares to complain?"
Zhu Shitou on the other side smiled and said: "Lang Jun, originally the fields in the village were barren, and Dongshan Temple was the only one that exempted people from paying taxes. However, there are lean days every year, so we can only eat wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger."
"Since my husband settled down, I have extended favors widely, gathered a large population, purchased more fertile land, and have many industries. Who wouldn't be grateful to my husband for his great kindness?"
This aspect is due to the Zhu family, who spoke immediately last night... The Dongshan Temple industry is not owned by the Li family, and is still shared by the Zhu family and the Li family.
"Besides, there is enough food in the village now. In the past two years, the monks in the temple have repeatedly returned to secular life. In a few years, there will probably be no one left."
This is true, Dongshan Temple may not always exist, and the taxes paid by Zhuangzi are already small, which is cost-effective in comparison. Li Shan walked around casually and said with a smile: "Isn't Bian Ji not a secular person?"
Zhu Ba chuckled and said: "If you don't let him eat chicken legs, we will see if he still refuses to return to secular life!"
Coming down from the hill, Li Shan took a detour to the south side of the village. Dozens of young men were digging soil. On the one hand, they were digging river channels, and on the other hand, they were using the excavated clay as raw material for making bricks.
The distance is not long, and late April is not the busy farming season. The project is progressing quite quickly, and it will be completed in a few months.
Zhu Shitou said with emotion: "It has been two years since Mr. Lang has settled here, and this place is no longer the same as it used to be."
Li Shan smiled and nodded. It was true. When he came to this era, he had changed a lot, and even changed the trajectory of history. But what was closest to him was the changes in this village.
Suddenly I remembered my female classmate from high school. She was quite pretty. After graduating from college, she actually took the civil service exam in her hometown and became a village official in the village. She vowed to build a new countryside... Li Shan thought to himself, he didn't know that she
I haven’t done it yet, but I did it in this era.
It was at dusk when Li Shan was walking on the road inside and outside the village. The old farmers working in the fields, the young men on guard everywhere, the naughty shepherd boys riding on the backs of oxen, and the women carrying the washbasins were all respectful or respectful.
, or come forward and salute affectionately.
A carriage in front slowly approached. Ling Jing opened the curtain and saw Li Shanxiao and asked, "Can I give you a new name?"
After Zhu Wei found out last night, he encouraged Li Shan to change the name of the village.
Li Shan thought for a while and said casually: "The Sun Lake is in the west of the village and the Moon Lake is in the east of the village. Let's call it Sun Moon Lake."
