The boat spinning in the middle of the river was barely under control, but the people on the shore were already staggering from exhaustion, and the rope had already slipped halfway down, which meant that it was harder to use force.
"Pull up the rope first!" the Ministry of Household official said bitterly.
I am really unlucky.
The trackers were a little hesitant this time. It might not be that simple to pull the rope up directly. Someone would have to jump into the water. Before anyone could say anything, Army Sima had already torn off his coat and jumped in first.
The department official immediately shouted and pulled him up.
"All the officials have gone down. If we don't go down, we won't have to do this!" A tracker also shouted at this time, also jumped into the water, and dragged up the thick rope.
"Let's go!" This time, more people on the dock came to help, dragging the big boat to the shore little by little, and the rope finally surfaced again. The people on the shore were busy pulling these
The good guys who were already turning blue from the cold were pulled up.
"Here, wrap this up tightly and bring a bowl of hot soup over."
In the wind and snow, a girl wrapped in a long blue fur coat was standing in front of a steaming vat giving instructions. Although her voice was thin, it seemed to have an irresistible magic power in the wind and snow.
Although the other little girl was more petite, she ran in front of the shop, adding a bit of vitality and vitality to the pier in the wind and snow. No one even cared that the mud and snow on the pier had made her
The hem of his clothes was dirty, but the smile on his pretty face was enough to warm people's hearts.
The trackers were in a daze when they looked at the two girls, one big and one small, who looked like gods. However, the army commander took a quick look at the jade pendant on the waist of the older girl, and saw the soldiers around who were busy walking around under the command of the girl.
Wearing a red feather that symbolized the emperor's personal guard, he was suddenly startled. At this time, of course he understood who was coming:
"Subordinate, please see Concubine Shu, princess."
Xiao Xiang smiled and said: "It's okay, drink something hot quickly."
But Jun Sima thought of something and looked sideways almost subconsciously.
Soon he discovered someone he had met before, and the damn guy from Tobe who he had been "in love with and killed" opened his mouth wide at this time.
After all, no one dares to imagine that they would look back and see His Majesty in this situation.
Li Xinchen was not wearing a dragon robe, so the trackers just thought that this was an official on the dock. At this time, the Ministry of Revenue officials saluted in panic, and they realized that they almost subconsciously knelt down. Fortunately, Li Xinchen did it in time.
A gesture asking them to get up.
This time Li Xingchen came to the pier only for a second reason. The main reason was to take Xiao Xiang and Ning Yuan, two little girls who were almost exhausted, out for a walk, so as not to say that he was only busy every day and could not take care of them at all.
In this heavy snowy weather, the transportation of troops, horses, grain and grass in the city was already muddy, so I simply went outside the city to see the snow falling thousands of miles across the river. Who knew that such a thing happened, and Li Xingchen couldn't help it.
, I simply went up to help myself. It was precisely because His Majesty the Emperor's personal guards came to help, and there were more people and more strength, that the grain transport ship was pulled over so quickly.
"Your Majesty!" The young household official was very excited. Looking at His Majesty's face that was blown red by the biting river wind just like his own, he felt that he could understand the mood of the trackers just now, and he could understand
Why would I rush forward regardless of myself?
It's worth dying to serve such a majesty!
Li Xingchen smiled slightly: "How about it? All the food from the south bank has been transported, right? How much is left at the dock on the north bank?"
"This is the last truck," an official from the Ministry of Revenue said hurriedly. "There are still enough grains for ten thousand people to last three months piled on the dock. The army has just moved north. It will probably take half a month for these subsequent grains to be transported.
.”
"This wharf is not very big, and we don't have that much manpower to transport grain and grass, so now we have just completed the first step in the whole process. There is still a long way to go to ensure that the grain is taken care of." Li Xingchen said.
As he said that, he walked into the crowd who were already queuing up to receive meals.
As His Majesty the Emperor, it is of course impossible for Li Xinchen to queue up with the trackers. After all, he is not in a hurry to promote any dish cooking. The reason why he can queue up with the soldiers is because Li Xinchen was born in the army and has always prided himself on being a general.
He is an out-and-out God of War in the minds of the soldiers, so Li Xingchen lowered his figure to let the soldiers feel that the God of War they admire is also an easy-going and ordinary person, so that they feel that one day they can become the God of War.
At such a height.
As for other ordinary people, Li Xingchen still wanted to maintain the authority of the emperor.
However, Li Xingchen did not open a small stove specifically. Instead, he directly took a rice bowl from Li Ping. Li Ping anxiously wanted to check, but Li Xingchen waved his hand. He said that eating here was all done on a temporary basis. Naturally, there would be no one.
Deliberate poisoning.
The hands of the cook cooking in front were trembling slightly. In fact, he was just a little fire-head. When had he ever thought that one day he would cook for His Majesty the Emperor?
"A few years ago, I also ate on ice and snow with the soldiers. At that time, if I had a steaming meal of roast pork, it would be worth a lot of money." Li Xingchen said with a smile, "The smell of your food makes me drool."
The cook breathed a sigh of relief and gave Li Xinchen a large ladle. The thick meat was covered with rice. The fragrant soup slid along the fat and thin meat and fell on the rice. The oil soaked the rice and made it crystal clear.
Stewing meat can be said to be one of the best cooking methods of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. The tripod among the ancient bronze vessels was originally used for stewing meat.
Holding his rice bowl, Li Xingchen turned around and said with a smile: "Brothers, let's eat together!"
"Let's eat together!" The trackers and officials of all sizes agreed loudly, and everyone felt warm in their hearts.
This is the real Emperor. He can stand here and eat the same thing as them. This is like smoke rising from the graves of his ancestors!
At this moment, no matter who it was, they felt a sense of trance when they looked at the smiling young man and the rice bowl in his hand that was no different from anyone else's.
They have never had such a clear feeling that they are part of this dynasty and this group. The entire Han Dynasty has struggled to get out of the troubled times, and it may really be possible to move towards the peaceful and prosperous era that Li Xingchen mentioned.
Peace, food and clothing.
This is what our ancestors have been looking forward to for generations.
In troubled times, the blood, tears, and hopes of generations are all condensed in this "troubled times", and what everyone is looking forward to now is that there is really one person who can stand up and tear apart this snow-filled sky. (
