Chapter 252: Five Women Sleep in One Night?
Why do you have to be here? This is really difficult to answer, Han Yue can't tell Li Shimin directly, my hometown was Shenyang before I crossed, so the emperor would definitely beat him to death as a demon......
"Your Majesty, Xiangping County has been inhabited since the Spring and Autumn Period, and a small city was built during the Three Kingdoms period, which was later abandoned due to war, and this place has been uninhabited since then. There are two main reasons why the www.biquge.info ministers want to build a city here. ”
"Two reasons?"
"Not bad! First, less than 100 miles to the north, there is the Jiapigou gold mine, and less than 100 miles to the south, where there is iron ore. ”
Li Shimin was shocked, and suddenly turned his head and said, "Iron ore? Is there still an iron mine in the Northeast? ”
In ancient times, salt and iron were the important industries of the country, and their status was not even below gold, and with iron ore they could develop the smelting industry, and then they continued to build weapons and agricultural tools.
Han Yue smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there are not only iron mines in the northeast, but also very large reserves, from Xiangping County to the south of Anshan and Benxi, these two places are the gathering places of the ethnic minorities Khitan and Xi, but unfortunately they only know how to hunt and live in the mountains and forests, and they don't know that wealth is under their feet." The iron ore reserves of Anshan and Benxi can be called the first in the world. ”
Li Shimin's eyes were blazing, and he hesitated: "This is why you insist on building a city in Xiangping County?" ”
"Yes, Xiangping is only a hundred miles away from the gold and iron mines, right in the middle of the two deposits. In addition, Xiangping County is fertile black soil, and a little development is a high-quality fertile land. We built a city here to develop industry and agriculture at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. ”
"Workers and agriculture are the foundation of a nation, and you have a good reason for that." Li Shimin nodded slowly, and then asked, "What about the second reason?" ”
"The second reason, of course, is manpower!" Han Yue smiled, and his eyebrows fluttered: "In fact, there is no shortage of people in the white mountains and black waters, and there are millions of ethnic minorities living between the mountains and forests. The ministers will not only turn them into barbarian soldiers, but also turn them into miners, mountain workers, and lumberjacks...... These kinds of work are tiring and hard, and the ministers are reluctant to let the Han people do it. ”
Li Shimin is obviously also a national element, and when he heard this, he laughed and said: "This move is good, I support it!" ”
At this time, it was almost dusk, and the huge team was slowly advancing, and suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and several scouts came quickly, and said loudly: "Tell Your Majesty, I found an abandoned small city five miles ahead, and the ruins are everywhere. ”
Han Yue glanced at the emperor and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, we have arrived!" ”
Li Shimin said 'um', he jumped into the car with the little son in his hands, pointed at Han Yue and scolded with a smile: "Return the donkey to you, hurry up and arrange the camp." ”
Han Yue was like an amnesty, he had already spent enough time in the car, although the surrounding hundred cavalry guards pretended to be blind, but the minister's convoy in the distance had someone lift the curtain from time to time, and I believe that many people were talking about it.
This kind of taboo thing is really terrifying.
He jumped back to the donkey, turned around and hurriedly saluted Li Shimin, then slapped Lao Bai's abdomen, and rode on the donkey in a panic.
The curtain of the emperor's car was quietly lifted, and the eldest grandson looked at Han Yue's figure and said: "Your Majesty, you see that he is scared, the concubine peeked from the carriage just now, and found Yue'er sitting on the handlebar trembling all over, and her neck and back were covered with sweat......
Li Shimin snorted, and said with deep meaning: "This kid is good at everything, but he has a little guts, and he has to exercise hard in the future." ”
"That can't be rushed!" The eldest grandson glanced at her husband and said in a low voice: "You have been making a big move recently, and you are the governor of the capital and the lord of the country, and now you are forcing him to get into the car, and everyone has to tremble if this matter changes." Your Majesty, can't you just take your time? ”
"Time is running out!" Li Shimin sighed lightly, his thoughts were a little unsuitable, and said: "I have been on a tour for nearly two years, and I am preparing to return to Chang'an recently, and I must teach him something when I leave." ”
The eldest grandson was taken aback and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, Yue'er has just come to Kanto, and he has not yet gained a firm foothold. People are needed to build a city, people are needed to open mines, and people are needed to develop this place. ”
"A man has to fight his own, and I am always behind, when will he be able to take charge alone?" Li Shimin stood on the car with his hands in his hands, looked into the distance, and said lightly: "I have already thought about it, and ten days later, the king will get up and return." The stinky boy has 5,000 Xuanjia iron horses, and the people of Hebei and Shandong have also arrived one after another, whether it is to build a city or open a mine, he is not short of manpower.
The eldest grandson frowned and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you return the gold mine to the royal family?" ”
"Although it is returned to the royal family, he will open the mine, and he only needs to pay me a tribute of 500 catties of gold every year." Li Shimin glanced at the eldest grandson and quipped: "As for whether he can intercept and embezzle, it depends on his ability." I only need 500 catties a year, if he has the ability to mine 1,000 catties a year, I will never be greedy for the extra 500 catties. ”
The eldest grandson's face was sluggish, and it took him a long time to react, and he rolled his eyes and rolled his husband fiercely, and said: "The concubine was almost blinded by you, how can there be a gold mine in the world that produces thousands of catties a year?" Even 500 catties are large deposits that have been counted throughout the ages. ”
Li Shimin Shi Shiran shrugged his shoulders and said meaningfully: "That's not necessarily, when I negotiated with him that day, I always felt that the stinky boy was pretending, maybe the gold mine can really produce a thousand catties a year." ”
"An annual output of 1,000 catties ......" the eldest grandson muttered, then shook his head and said in a low voice: "How is this possible?" She got up and took the little son from Li Shimin's arms, and said softly: "The concubine is a little sleepy, so she will sleep in the carriage with the child in her arms for a while." ”
Li Shimin nodded and said in a low voice: "Although Guanyin is sleeping, just now the scout said that this place is still five miles away from the ancient city of Xiangping, and the car is driving slowly, and it will take at least half an hour." ”
The eldest grandson said 'um', hugged the little son and was about to go back to the carriage, but the little girl jumped and jumped in her arms, shouting and disobeying: "Queen Mother, don't sleep with you, I'm going to find the big brother, I want to sleep in his arms......"
……
……
The emperor was stunned at the same time, the eldest grandson smiled bitterly, Li Shimin groaned for a long time, turned to the Baiqi Division guard and shouted: "Are you deaf, why don't you hurry up and hug Princess Jinyang and send her to the Marquis of Jingyang." ”
All the hundreds of cavalry warriors looked at each other, everyone had a bitter face, Princess Jinyang was the most delicate golden branch and jade leaf, let them go to Han Yue with their arms, no one dared to accept this matter.
What if the little princess cries on the way?
What should I do if I accidentally fall off my horse?
In the end, it was Li Chong who rode out of the horse, he first jumped off the horse, and then gently picked up the little son with both hands, and walked on foot without riding a horse, chasing Han Yue's donkey all the way.
"Your Majesty, my son is becoming more and more inseparable from Yue'er, this little girl is already a little sensible, she must have heard that you are going back to Chang'an in ten days, so she is making trouble to find the eldest brother......"
Li Shimin stood with his hands in his hands, staring at Han Yue's figure in front of him, and suddenly said lightly: "It's really not good, just leave the little son by his side." ”
"Stay with him?" The eldest grandson frowned slightly, she was a little puzzled in her heart, and asked Chi Chi: "What does Your Majesty mean by this?" ”
She and Li Shimin are a young couple, they have been in the same boat for decades, and even her husband has always acted without purpose, he left the little son, it is definitely not because the little girl is reluctant to give up the big brother.
"Guanyin maid enlighten herself......" Li Shimin smiled, suddenly stretched out his hand to pick up the curtain of the carriage, and entered it and sat steadily.
The car drove forward slowly, and the cavalry on both sides guarded it cautiously, and walked for about half an hour, when the people in the middle of the team were suddenly heard laughing loudly, and many people were excitedly shouting: "It's here, it's finally here!" This must be the place that the Marquis of Jingyang said, and if we build a city here in the future, we will definitely be very rich. ”
Li Shimin lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, only to see a dilapidated city standing a hundred steps away, the city gate had collapsed, and the walls were ruined everywhere, the emperor said meaningfully: "In such a dilapidated place, the people can see hope in it, and the reputation of the stinky boy is getting bigger and bigger." I sometimes can't help but think that if he moves to an uninhabited desert island one day, as long as he says that the desert island can be built, the people will definitely follow him without even thinking about it. ”
The eldest grandson chuckled, and his eyebrows fluttered: "That's natural, and you don't look at who gave birth to the son." The queen felt a little proud in her heart, looked out through the car window, and suddenly her face was dull, and she was surprised: "This place is so dilapidated? If you want to build a city here, and it's the kind of super giant city that Yue'er said, I'm afraid it's not enough if there aren't millions or thousands......"
The queen suddenly felt a little worried.
Li Shimin snorted lightly and said leisurely: "It depends on his own ability." I gave him 20 million guan, plus the wealth he earned in the mutual market, the money he plundered from Goryeo Shinmaru Castle, and the investment of your internal affairs office, etc., adding up to more than 30 million...... With such a huge wealth in my hands, if I can't even build a city, then I will be a little disappointed. ”
The eldest grandson frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty's words are a little wrong, his 30 million is not only used to build a city, but also to split mountains and mine, cut down trees and forests, and open up wasteland to make land." This place has been barren and impoverished for thousands of years, and he is tantamount to starting construction from scratch. 300,000 people followed him to eat and drink, 5,000 Xuanjia iron horsemen needed food and salary, there were holes everywhere, and money was needed everywhere, and the concubines really felt hard for this child. ”
"The road was chosen by himself, and I never forced him!" Li Shimin glanced at the eldest grandson and quipped: "If Guanyin can persuade this kid to turn back and follow us back to Chang'an to develop, I can also seal him a rich place." ”
The eldest grandson glanced at her husband and said quietly: "Your Majesty, you have come to mock the concubines again, Yue'er is determined to pass through Liaodong, how can he listen to my persuasion." ”
Li Shimin smiled and said lightly: "Then I can't help it, I can't help my father, let him go......"
The eldest grandson sighed lightly, his eyes looked out through the car window again, and his eyes fell on a handsome young man, reluctant and reluctant.
After a long time like this, the queen suddenly gritted her teeth and said viciously: "If he wants to stay, he will stay, and the palace will not care." But tonight I've got to do something big and get this stinky boy done. ”
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the queen gritting her teeth, she couldn't help but ask curiously: "What does Guanyin want him to do?" ”
"Sleeping woman!"
The eldest grandson looked fierce, his momentum was very violent, and he snorted: "Four girls plus that Silla princess, don't even think about running away tonight, when will he plant well, and when will the concubines let him go." ”
Li Shimin was dumbfounded, and suddenly swallowed his saliva quietly, and for some reason he was a little envious in his heart.
"Sleeping women, or five sleeping ...... together"
