"Dad, I am summarizing the farming methods taught by Mr. Su Chen."
With that said, he handed a book that was initially completed to His Majesty Li Er.
"It contains more than thirty novel farming methods."
His Majesty Li Er looked through it and said with approval: "It's good, the organization is very clear, and the words are easy to understand."
"My son also considered that farmers don't know much about literacy, so I used more straightforward words." Li Chengqian said seriously.
"Well, you are interested."
His Majesty Li Er showed a rare smile and said: "This farming matter is the foundation of our Tang Dynasty, so we should consider it carefully!"
"Although these methods were taught by Su Chen, you, as the organizer, also contributed a lot."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was a little flattered. His father rarely praised him like this!
However, before he could start to be moved, His Majesty Li Er continued: "My father now has a task that is just as important as farming for you to entrust to you."
"That's what dad said."
Li Chengqian was a little excited and said: "I promise that I will not disappoint my father!"
He knew that recently there had been news in the court that his father wanted to conquer Goguryeo himself.
According to the old practice, after the emperor leaves, a prince will be appointed as the supervisor of the country.
At that time, he will take over the emperor's duties and handle the government affairs in the court!
It seems that I finally have a chance to prove myself!
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian's blood suddenly boiled!
His Majesty Li Er did not notice his blushing face and said, "I have agreed on a business deal with that boy Su Chen..."
Finally, His Majesty Li Er said as if entrusting you with the great responsibility of the world: "This matter has a great impact on our country, the Tang Dynasty!"
"If we can really raise hundreds of thousands of high-quality military horses, then who else can stop my Tang Dynasty's cavalry?"
"Cheng Qian, this is a major event related to the prosperity of our family and country. Are you willing to take on it?"
After listening to His Majesty Li Er's words, Li Chengqian was extremely heartbroken.
Just...that's it?!
I thought it was really a big deal!
I seem to have just returned from farming in Jiannan Road a few days ago, right?!
Why do you want to go back to raising horses again?!
Are you still the crown prince of this country?!
"Chengqian?"
Seeing that he had a dull look on his face and was hesitant to speak, His Majesty Li Er couldn't bear it, so he said earnestly: "You also know, that boy Su Chen is full of tricks and is always thinking of ways to plot against my father."
"This is a major matter related to national strength. As long as you can help my father find out everything, then my father will also suffer some losses."
"Except for you, I don't worry about anyone else!"
Now that the words have come to this, Li Chengqian can't refuse even if he doesn't want to.
"yes."
Li Chengqian said feebly: "Don't worry, Dad, I will not let you down."
"good!"
His Majesty Li Er patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction and said: "As expected of my eldest son, he understands righteousness!"
"Don't worry, after you complete this matter, Dad will hold a celebration banquet for you!"
"Dad, I believe you will gain a lot this time!
After saying that, His Majesty Li Er left in a happy mood, leaving only Prince Li Chengqian sad alone and sighing at the moon...
In the next half month, the entire Tang Dynasty was like a sophisticated machine, running rapidly.
Food, grass, baggage, craftsmen, and troops are all ready.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind!
And on this day, the east wind that His Majesty Li Er had been waiting for for so long finally arrived!
Early in the morning, Dai Zhou hurriedly received the news.
It is said that a group of businessmen from Dashi are going to the palace to offer treasures!
In his excitement, His Majesty Li Er even canceled the morning court meeting and waited for the surprise in the Tai Chi Hall alone!
Half an hour later, the merchants from the big food spot arrived.
His Majesty Li Er sat high on the dragon chair and asked in a deep voice: "What is the present that is so mysterious?"
Seeing His Majesty Li Er's sharp eyes, the big food merchant was so frightened that his calves twitched, and he said with a trembling voice: "Report to your Majesty, this thing is..."
He wanted to continue the introduction, but as soon as he opened his mouth, His Majesty Li Er interrupted him without mercy.
His Majesty Li Er asked directly: "How much?"
"Five...fifty thousand strings!"
This big food businessman has been frightened by His Majesty Li Er's momentum, and he is constantly upset in his heart. If he had known that he would die, he would not take this job!
As a result, His Majesty Li Er said simply: "Okay, I bought it."
Then, someone brought out the gold that had been prepared.
"Leave your things behind, please step back!"
His Majesty Li Er was too lazy to talk to these foreigners and went directly to inspect his precious cannon.
This kid, that big food merchant was completely dumbfounded.
I thought it would be troublesome to help, but who would have thought that it would be so simple?
This money is so profitable, isn’t it?!
Before he could react, he was already being invited out of the palace by the chamberlain in a daze.
After the people left, His Majesty Li Er told Li Junxian, "Go and watch them secretly in person to see who they have come into contact with!"
"yes!"
Li Junxian accepted the order and left in a hurry.
After he left, His Majesty Li Er couldn't help it anymore and burst out laughing!
"Hahaha, my country is stable!"
This is more than twenty cannons and tens of thousands of kilograms of ammunition!
Although the cannons are still a bit ugly now, seeing them, His Majesty Li Er seemed to have seen a grand country!
An hour later, Li Junxian returned to the palace and reported everything to His Majesty Li Er.
According to him, besides him, there are people who are secretly watching these big food merchants.
When these big cannibals walked out of Chang'an City and headed to the suburbs, they were all killed when they went downhill!
In response, His Majesty Li Er nodded with satisfaction.
Su Chen, this little bastard, really does everything right!
Subsequently, His Majesty Li Er officially issued an edict that he would personally take command, assisted by Li Jing, Cheng Yaojin and other ten powerful generals, and set off for the eastern expedition to Goguryeo in three days!
At the beginning, when Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty went on an eastern expedition, the people broke their own limbs to avoid the expedition.
But during His Majesty Li Er's Eastern Campaign, the situation was exactly the opposite!
In a short period of time after the news of the Eastern Expedition came out, the entire Tang Dynasty was in a state of excitement!
In the past year, His Majesty Li Er first destroyed the Eastern Turks and then Tibet.
Coupled with the promotion of various novel things, people's lives are getting better and better!
For a time, His Majesty Li Er's reputation among the people reached an extremely high level!
Before the government could even recruit people, the people were already eager to join the army!
Many people join the army regardless of pay, just to contribute to the Eastern Expedition!
Originally, Li Erbi only planned to lead the Eastern Expedition with more than 60,000 people, but after the common people enthusiastically participated, the number of soldiers and civilians increased to more than 100,000!
