Chapter 119 Congratulations to Your Majesty for defeating Tubo
Thousands of miles away, Chang'an City, Zhuque Street.
"Get out of the way! Urgent news from the border!"
A knight with a somewhat embarrassed figure suddenly appeared, causing passers-by to quickly get out of the way.
On the horseback, the knight seemed not to feel the wounds on his body, but his eyes were bright and scary!
After a while, the knight rushed into the Tai Chi Hall.
"Report!"
The knight shouted at the top of his lungs: "The frontier has been completely victorious, and Tubo has fallen!"
Just these few words instantly aroused the emotions of the ministers who were attending the morning court in the hall!
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for eradicating the Tubo barbarians!"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to the Tang Dynasty!"
"From now on, there will be no more barbarian disasters in the Tang Dynasty's borders!"
His Majesty Li Er raised his hand to stop the enthusiasm of the ministers. He looked so excited that he could not control himself and asked: "Do you have a detailed battle report?!"
"Your Majesty, in this battle, I lost less than five soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and killed more than 80,000 Tibetan barbarians!"
"Captured nine large Tubo cities and seized countless gold, silver and jewels!"
The knight shouted excitedly.
Hearing such an exciting battle report, everyone in the hall was extremely excited!
Defeating Tibet shocked them even more than defeating the East Turks before!
You know, the current Tubo is not comparable to the weak East Turks before!
However, His Majesty Li Er actually defeated Tubo at a very small cost?!
For a moment, everyone felt like they were dreaming!
"Okay, well done!"
His Majesty Li Er looked up and laughed, and then asked: "Is there any news about the Tubo Regent Kili Xu Shangnian?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Kili Xu Shangnian has been captured alive and is on his way to Chang'an!"
"good!"
After hearing this, His Majesty Li Er stood up and said to the ministers: "Today I will hold a big banquet and drink with you all. I will not return until I get drunk!"
The ministers responded with a roar!
After the morning court ended, His Majesty Li Er was still unable to calm down from his excitement.
His Majesty Li Er can't wait to share this good news with Queen Changsun!
Li Zheng Palace.
"Mr. Guanyin."
As soon as he entered the door, His Majesty Li Er said excitedly: "I, the Tang Dynasty, won the battle against Tubo!"
"Did you know?! Tubo was defeated, and even their King Nie Zheng became a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty!"
Next, His Majesty Li Er told Empress Changsun what happened in court this morning in detail.
Seeing that His Majesty Li Er still looked excited after finishing speaking, Empress Changsun couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, since the military report has been sent now, the news should be correct."
"Your Majesty, if I didn't make any guesses, this matter must be closely related to Su Chen's suggestion, right?"
"That's wrong!"
His Majesty Li Er said harshly: "If it weren't for our one hundred thousand mighty generals in the Tang Dynasty, no matter how good that little bastard's strategy is, it will be of no use!"
"Okay, okay, Your Majesty, everything you said is right."
Empress Changsun first covered her mouth and smiled, and then said with some worry: "Speaking of Su Chen, it has been almost three months since they set off."
"I don't know how Li Zhi and Si Zi are doing now. Jiannan Road is poor, so they must have suffered a lot."
However, what Empress Changsun didn't know was that her two precious daughters were now spending time with Su Chen every day, almost forgetting that she and His Majesty Li Er were far away in Chang'an.
Speaking of this, His Majesty Li Er remembered something and said: "Guanyin Maid, do you know?"
"It turns out that Su Chen went to Jiannan Road to farm again!"
"I heard from Li Junxian that what he is planting is a new type of rice, with a yield of up to 20 acres per mu, and in areas like Yizhou, it can be harvested three times a year, which means the yield per mu is sixty shi per year.
!”
"It is conceivable that if this kind of rice cultivation is successful, it will be even more powerful to the national strength of the Tang Dynasty!"
"I knew that this boy had a lot of treasures, but sweet potatoes were not his most productive food."
"After he comes back, I will give him a good look and see if he has any treasures that I don't know about yet!"
Empress Changsun was also very surprised when she heard the news, but when she thought that Su Chen had done all this, she felt there was no need to be so surprised.
So Queen Changsun continued to ask: "Then when do they plan to return?"
"It'll be there in about four months!"
His Majesty Li Er said: "Now, I just hope that boy can farm honestly in Jiannan Road. If something happens again, I am afraid that the entire Tang Dynasty will not be peaceful!"
After chatting with Empress Changsun for a while, His Majesty Li Er stood up and left.
Although he said it was not Su Chen's fault, he still went to the historian honestly.
He also knew that if the Tubo envoy hadn't accidentally offended Su Chen while wandering around, Tubo might not have been defeated.
In this case, the Tibetan envoys also played an important role!
Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but feel a little funny.
The powerful Tubo Empire was wiped out alive just because it offended a peasant family. It is really ridiculous.
So, he gave a lot of instructions to the historian.
Finally, the historian vaguely wrote this line in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
"In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Tubo sent envoys to Chang'an, but they angered Su Chen, a farmer in the Tang Dynasty."
"Therefore, the Tubo Empire that stretched across the northwest plateau was destroyed!"
After writing this incredible piece of history, the historian was still extremely confused and even confused.
Three months later.
Yizhou.
At this time, Prince Li Chengqian of the Tang Dynasty was diligently recording every detail of his daily life in his room.
"July, the fourth year of Zhenguan."
"Li Zhi and Si Zi have ignored me all day. They and Mr. Su Chen went to catch crabs all day."
"Nothing special happened today. I just spent the day working under the sun as before."
After thinking for a while, Li Chengqian continued to write.
"As for the harvest, I got two more blisters on my hands, and I also learned a few methods of farming."
"But one thing I'm still confused about is why Master Su Chen said: plow the fields after autumn and have a good harvest in the coming year?"
"I hope Mr. Su Chen can give me a detailed answer tomorrow and stop just asking Li Zhi and Si Zi to massage his back."
This was all homework carefully assigned to him by His Majesty Li Er, who was asked to write a diary every day and record Su Chen's every word and deed.
Since setting off, Li Chengqian has not stopped for a day, but he has developed a good habit invisibly.
After finishing writing, Li Chengqian began to talk to himself.
"It will be mid-July soon, and the first batch of early rice we planted will be mature."
"I don't know how much harvest I can get from the acre of land I cultivate myself?"
