Datang: Son-in-law, I beg you to come out of the mountain

A month later.

Because Li Shimin implemented the responsibility system for disaster relief, the aristocratic family had to spare no effort to provide money and food to relieve the victims.

In order to earn a stele of merit and virtue, the aristocratic families are also desperate. After all, these aristocratic families rely on their prestige to be passed down from generation to generation, so they take their reputation very seriously.

As soon as the hungry people heard that they could have food and receive wages if they went to build water conservancy projects, they went to build water conservancy projects one after another.

Relief with work not only builds water conservancy projects, but also relieves the victims of the disaster. The people have jobs and wages, so they feel at ease.

Once he is at ease in his heart, he will not think wildly, and Datang will be stable.

Although it was still snowing heavily, there were not many victims, and the situation was under control.

……

Inside the hall of Empress Changsun.

"Your Majesty, don't you see the plum blossoms cut by my concubine, aren't they very handsome and glamorous?" Empress Changsun said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"That's right, the plum blossoms are blooming better than usual." Li Shimin said in a good mood.

"I think the emperor is in a better mood this spring than in previous years, and everything looks good." Empress Changsun laughed.

"That's true, hey, this Yang Zhuo, with a pair of tricks, solved my urgent need and made me stop worrying." Li Shimin said cheerfully.

"Yes! I really have to thank Yang Zhuo very much!" Li Shimin was full of emotion.

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day! Your Majesty, the weather is fine today, why don't you go thank Yang Zhuo today?" Empress Changsun laughed.

"Good idea! Maid Guanyin, we will set off later to find that Yang Zhuo."

Li Shimin thought for a while, and it just so happens that what should be done now has been done, and he can indeed go to Qingyun County again to find Yang Zhuo. There is no more text.

This time, you must ask carefully.

At this time, there was a burst of laughter like silver bells outside the hall.

"Royal Father! Queen Mother!"

A little girl carved in pink and jade, with two braids in her hair, jumped up and down and ran to Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

This girl is the eldest daughter of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, Li Lizhi. She has inherited the beauty of Empress Changsun, with big eyes, long eyelashes, delicate facial features, pink and tender, very cute.

"My dear daughter, let my father hug you." Li Shimin opened his hands and hugged Li Lizhi.

Li Shimin is a complete daughter slave, he can spoil Li Lizhi to heaven.

Empress Changsun watched the two father and daughter play wildly with soft eyes.

"Okay, Lizhi, you go to play first, the queen mother and your father still have business to do." Empress Changsun patted Li Lizhi's head and said.

"What business are the queen mother and emperor father going to do? Can you bring Lizhi along? Lizhi will definitely be obedient." Li Lizhi raised her innocent face and blinked at the eldest grandson empress.

Empress Changsun wanted to refuse, but was interrupted by Li Shimin.

"Just take Lizhi, she seldom goes out of the palace to play, and the weather is fine today, so let's take her for an outing." Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Father is the best!" Li Lizhi said happily.

"Qi'er, you will be outside the palace later, you can't call him like that, you should call him Dad instead."

"Yes! Father!" Li Lizhi was very clever and agreed with a smile.

In this way, Li Shimin took his wife and daughter out of the palace gate in a carriage.

But as soon as they arrived at the gate of the palace, they met Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

Seeing that it was Li Shimin's carriage, they immediately stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, are you going to visit privately?"

"Why don't you bring more guards?"

The corners of Li Shimin's lips twitched slightly, why did he meet these two guys here?
"I see that the weather is good today, so I'm going out for an outing. Bringing too many entourages is too much of an eyesore." Li Shimin wouldn't tell them that he was going to find Zhuge Liang behind him!

After speaking, Li Shimin hurriedly asked Lu Yungan to drive the carriage forward.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were in chaos again.

"Did the emperor panic just now?"

"Have!"

"Why is the emperor panicking?"

"I don't know!"

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!"

-

Qingyun County, Yangjiazhuang.

As soon as Li Shimin and Empress Changsun got out of the car, they heard screams outside the manor.

"Father, what's that sound?" Li Lizhi was a little scared.

"I'm not afraid of quality." Li Shimin picked up Li Lizhi and looked up at Wangjiazhuang.

"It sounds like a pig? Could it be that Mr. Yang Zhuo is killing a pig?" Empress Changsun asked in confusion, with a strange expression on her face.

The reason why Empress Changsun was surprised was that in the Tang Dynasty, this pork was too fishy and the meat was so tough that almost no one would eat it.

"Come on, let's go in and have a look." Li Shimin was even more curious.

Li Shimin and his party went to Wangjiazhuang, searched for the sound and went to the pig farm in Wangjiazhuang.

"This... actually raised so many pigs?" Empress Changsun counted at random, no less than a hundred.

"It's strange, why are the pigs here so white and strong!" Li Shimin said in surprise.

The pig in the pigsty was sleeping there peacefully. It was white and strong, and it weighed two hundred catties to say the least!
At that time, pigs that could reach fifty catties were considered big.

Just when they were puzzled, they saw Huang Bo was holding a pig with several farmers, holding a knife in...

"Old man, what are you doing?" Li Shimin asked curiously.

Uncle Huang had met Li Shimin before, at this moment, he smiled at Li Shimin and said, "Weird pig."

"Barrow?"

Li Shimin said in surprise.

"Qian'er, turn your head away, don't look at it." Empress Changsun blushed and turned her head away.

"After the pig is eunuched, the meat will become delicious, and it will grow fat easily, and it won't be noisy anymore." After Huang Bo finished speaking, he stabbed down, and the pig screamed.

Li Shimin suddenly realized that this is indeed a good way!
"Who taught you this method?" Li Shimin asked.

"Oh, our young master taught us." After Huang Bo finished speaking, he continued to work with his head bowed.

During the Tang Dynasty, the pigs at that time were not castrated, and the smell was unpleasant and the taste was particularly bad. Moreover, because they had not been castrated, the pigs would always go into heat. If you find the opposite sex, you will naturally not gain weight.

Therefore, the pig was raised for a year, and it was only about the size of a big yellow dog. Because of the constant estrus, the meat was very embarrassing.

Modern pigs are different. They can grow hundreds of catties in just a few months, which is unimaginable to the ancients.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun have learned a lot.

They walked out of the pigsty and walked towards the central courtyard of Wangjiazhuang.
