Back in the room, Long Chen took out his pen and ink and wrote down the Secret of Immortality and the Long Family's Mental Technique.
Ji Xianxian had helped Long Chen, and the relationship between the two was also very special. She wanted the skills, and it was hard for Long Chen to refuse.
If you don't give it, it's easy to be accused of holding up your pants and not admitting it.
Boom, boom, boom.
He Juntao knocked on the door and came in, holding a secret letter in his hand and hurried over.
"Sir, Commander Feng has news."
Long Chen's face lit up and he immediately opened the secret message.
Feng He wrote in the letter that there was news about the Meat Garden. It was the White Bone Mountain among the barbarians, and its location had also been confirmed.
However, the most important point is that Feng He did not enter Baigu Mountain to investigate, so he could not be sure that Gui Fei's meat and vegetable garden was there.
The reason for not entering was simple. Gan Xin and Mo Lin were afraid. They felt threatened by death.
In such a situation, Long Chen estimated that this is the place.
"Sir, is there any news?"
He Juntao knew that Feng He was investigating the lair of ghost fetuses, but there was no news.
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, there is news about Feng He, I guess that is the place."
"But, whether it is true or not, I have to go there myself."
He Juntao frowned and said: "But the two sides are confronting each other. The ghost has suffered a loss once, and it is impossible for him to suffer a second time."
Last time, Long Chen sneaked to Jinling to cause havoc, and Gui Fei suffered a loss.
If Long Chen leaves again, Guitai will definitely find out and will definitely take the opportunity to attack.
Moreover, the barbarian grassland is too far away. It takes at least a month to go back and forth, so the ghost fetus has enough time to launch an attack.
"I have to deceive Gui Fei, how can I deceive him?"
Long Chen was pacing in the room, thinking in his mind about how to avoid the detection of ghost fetuses.
He Juntao was also thinking about how to hide the ghost fetus.
After thinking for a long time, Long Chen still shook his head and said: "There is no way. Gui Fei is not a fool. He has been deceived once. It is difficult to deceive him a second time."
He Juntao said in embarrassment: "However, if we don't deceive the ghost fetus, once the master leaves, the ghost fetus will inevitably attack. The Holy One cannot withstand it."
Long Chen leaned on the chair and said: "This matter cannot be rushed, let me think it through."
He Juntao exited the room, and Long Chen was alone in the room thinking of a solution.
the next day.
Long Chen was still sleeping when Di Luoxi walked in and said, "Today the Queen Mother is holding a harvest ceremony. You must participate. Did you forget?"
There was a bumper rice harvest, and the empress wanted to hold a harvest ceremony to boost morale, and also to show the ghosts that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty had enough grain and rice to consume indefinitely.
Long Chen thought about how to deceive ghost fetuses all night, and got up tiredly.
Di Luoxi saw that Long Chen looked sleepy and immediately asked: "Did the third sister come last night?"
Long Chen said speechlessly: "What? Ling Yi didn't come. It was because I thought about things too late last night, so I looked very sleepy."
Di Luoxi asked suspiciously: "Really not? Why do I think you are a little weak?"
Long Chen hugged Di Luoxi, turned over, and pressed Di Luoxi under him.
"What did you say? Call me vain?"
Long Chen held him down obscenely, while Di Luoxi struggled and said, "The Queen Mother is waiting for us to participate in the harvest ceremony. Stop making trouble."
Long Chen said with a smile: "I'll give you a good harvest first."
Di Luoxi knew she couldn't run away, so she could only cooperate with Long Chen to finish it quickly.
.
In the rice fields in the north of the city, the empress was wearing a phoenix robe and a silk hat on her head. Standing beside her were Emperor Lingyi and Sun Lu.
"Four
Sister, what took you so long? You don’t know how."
Di Lingyi wanted to say whether he had eaten it secretly again, but in front of the empress and other ministers, Di Lingyi was embarrassed to say it.
Di Luoxi rolled her eyes at Di Lingyi and said nothing.
The empress saw the good things done by Long Chen and Di Luoxi. As the queen mother, she was embarrassed to say anything.
"Congratulations to Mr. Sun, you have worked hard for half a year and have a great harvest."
Long Chen smiled and congratulated Sun Lu. He is Sinong Qing, and this credit belongs to him.
Sun Lu immediately said: "King Wu made fun of him and recruited people to grow grain. This is King Wu's strategy, and I am just executing it."
Farming was Long Chen's invention, Sun Lu just followed the established strategy and implemented it, nothing more.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Master Sun, why should you be too modest? Master Sun is taking care of it from the beginning to the end. This credit belongs to Master Sun."
The empress said: "Okay, don't be modest, both of you have contributed."
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the empress walked up to the high platform and said to the people and soldiers below: "Everyone, God bless the Zhou Dynasty. Our first rice harvest will be bumper, and our army will have enough food and grass."
"This is the credit of Sinong Qing, and also the credit of all of you."
"At the beginning I promised the people not to collect rent. Today I am opening the sickle to harvest rice. I have fulfilled my promise and the people will not collect rent."
The people who participated in the ceremony heard the empress say that there was really no need to collect rent, and they were so happy that they shouted long live.
In ancient times, taxes and corvee were very heavy, but the empress exempted them from taxes. All the rice harvested this season belonged to the people themselves, and the people's joy was beyond words.
In addition to the rice grown by the common people, Long Chen also had hundreds of thousands of captives farming the land, and the harvest was enough to feed the army.
"Open the sickle!"
The empress announced, and the people and prisoners began to harvest rice together.
Everyone was very happy, and the highest one was Sinong Qing. Sun Lu, he laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Looking at Sun Lu, Long Chen suddenly thought of someone.
After the ceremony, the harvest continued, and the empress and the soldiers returned to the city.
Long Chen walked into the empress' room, and the empress was changing clothes.
It was hot outside, and the empress was soaked in sweat while wearing court clothes.
"As soon as you come, help me. Didn't you see that my clothes are wet?"
The empress took off her phoenix robe, and the silk bellyband inside was soaked with sweat and stuck to her fair skin.
Long Chen didn't hesitate and stepped forward to untie the empress' bellyband. Yingfeng brought a new one.
The empress said: "Bring some water, I want to wipe it."
Yingfeng immediately fetched water. The empress turned her back to Long Chen, and Long Chen was right behind her. They seemed to have a tacit understanding in their hearts.
Only test at the edges, but never cross the line.
After a while, Yingfeng came over with water, wrung out the silk scarf, and was about to wipe it with the empress. The empress looked back at Long Chen, and Yingfeng stopped and handed the scarf to Long Chen.
Long Chen hesitated for a moment, then took the silk scarf and wiped the empress' sweat away.
After wiping his back, Long Chen waited for the empress to turn around.
However, the empress did not turn around, and Long Chen handed the scarf to Yingfeng.
Yingfeng felt strange, why didn't the empress turn around?
After taking the silk scarf, Yingfeng wiped it for the Empress, and Long Chen picked up the bellyband and put it on the Empress.
After changing her clothes, the empress sat down and asked, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Long Chen said: "Wei Chen has been looking for the lair of the ghost fetus. Yesterday, Feng He received news and said that he had found it."
The empress frowned and immediately asked: "Are you sure?"
Long Chen shook his head and said: "Not sure, they didn't go in."
The empress asked in surprise: "Didn't you go in? Why didn't you go in?"
