Datang Fenghua Road

Li Shimin blushed and said embarrassingly: "I am the king of a country, and I want to multiply children." The emperor suddenly stopped when he said this, saw someone coming from the corner of his eye, and quickly lowered his voice: "We will discuss this later, stinky. Here comes the boy."

The eldest grandson was lying lazily in the carriage. Hearing this, he got up and sat upright. Li Shimin also flicked his robe sleeves.

……

……

Not far from the car, the white-haired old donkey slowly approached, Han Yue sat on the back of the donkey, turned around, and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, you called me here, I don't know why?" A coquettish and naughty little sis, because he jumped and jumped for a moment, he couldn't live, so Han Yue could only hold his hands tightly, so he couldn't salute when he saw the emperor.

Li Shimin coughed lightly, stood on the car and waved, "Come up and talk!"

Han Yue's body was shocked, his eyes glanced around the emperor's car, and he found that many guards of a hundred horsemen were looking ahead, two ears seemed to be deaf, and two eyes seemed to be blind, as if he had not heard the emperor at all, and did not see the emperor beckoning. generally.

"I should ride a donkey and follow!" Han Yue swallowed and said in a low voice, "Anyway, Your Majesty's car is not fast, and Lao Bai's legs can keep up." Lao Bai is an old donkey with white hair on his crotch. The donkey's temperament is gentle and slow, but Han Yue likes it a lot in his heart.

It's a pity that this time he politely declined and failed. Li Shimin had a precedent of letting his god king drive a car before, and he could be fooled by words every time. If you dare to be mother-in-law again, I will let someone chop off your old donkey. Is it fun to ride a donkey with your little son in your arms? You have lost all your royal face..."

Han Yue shrank his neck and explained with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, this is really no wonder Wei Chen. Princess Jinyang has been infatuated with Zhang Guolao recently, and she forced her to ride a donkey backwards."

"Put the responsibility to a five-year-old girl, is this the way of doing things that is famous in the world?" Li Shimin snorted, pointed at him and reprimanded: "If you hadn't made up a story about the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, how could Xiao Sizi be like this? Fascinated? She is a little girl who is not sensible, don't you think that you are not sensible, so you can ride a donkey, do you want the royal face?"

This is simply unreasonable, Han Yue sighed in the sky.

At this moment, Xiao Sizi suddenly showed a head from his arms, a sly brilliance flashed in the little girl's eyes, and she suddenly opened her small hands and said in a milky voice, "Father, Sizi wants you to hug."

The daughter is his father's little padded jacket, and the old face that Li Shimin was holding suddenly turned into a flower with a smile, and he said, "Come here, let the royal father hug."

Xiao Sizi giggled and said softly, "Royal father came to ride a donkey and hug me, I want to ride upside down..."

When Li Shimin was stunned, Han Yue couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

"Stinky boy dare to read my jokes?" Li Shimin scolded him fiercely, his eyes turned to Xiao Sizi, his voice softened immediately, and he coaxed and persuaded: "Sizi, come to the car, how about my father holding you in the car? "

"No, no, my father must ride a donkey, it's better to be Zhang Guolao..."

Looking at the little girl's charming and naive expression, Li Shimin's face changed constantly, Han Yue snickered secretly in his heart, the emperor suddenly shouted violently, and cursed: "If you don't let me roll down, give Lao Bai to me to ride!"

Han Yue let out an "ah" and said dumbfounded, "Your Majesty, didn't you say that riding a donkey is shameful?"

"I am the emperor, I have a face when riding!" Li Shimin snorted lightly, jumped from the car and jumped onto the back of the donkey, took Xiao Sizi from Han Yue's arms with one hand, and picked up Han Yue's collar with the other hand. , threw it on the car with a flick of his hand.

"Your Majesty..." Han Yue's face turned pale with fright.

Li Shimin gave him a sideways glance and said lightly: "You sit down for me, and if you dare to twist your butt, be careful to reward you with a hundred military sticks."

A hundred military sticks can kill people, Han Yue swallowed and sat down obediently.

He didn't dare to sit in the carriage, not even at the door of the carriage. The whole emperor's carriage or only the handlebars could sit on it. Sitting there could give an illusion to outsiders: he was driving the carriage for the emperor as a driver, not sitting on it. The emperor's car.

Li Shimin watched with a cold eye, seeing Han Yue sitting carefully on the handlebar, he sneered, and snorted coldly, "It's not promising!" Princess Yang's little sister, the father and daughter had a great time playing.

"Your Majesty!" Han Yue trembled and asked, "Why did you call Wei Chen to come here?"

Li Shimin looked into the distance, and said leisurely: "I asked you to come here to ask when we can reach the place you said. The army has been gone for seven days. If the journey is still long, I must order to set up camp and let the people have a good rest.”

"Your Majesty is asking this!" Han Yue shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "This place is only less than twenty miles away from Shenyang, so we must arrive before sunset tonight."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Shenyang, Shenyang! Why do you insist on naming that place Shenyang? I checked the map, and it was clearly Xiangping County, which has been inhabited since the Spring and Autumn Period. It was named Xiangping during the Three Kingdoms period, but it was A small place with less than a thousand people."

"It used to be a small city with a thousand people, but it will become a big city with a million people in the future? Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love and respect. I conscripted 30 people from Hebei and Shandong to my ministers. I just took advantage of this to build a city in Shenyang, and since then it has dominated the Northeast."

"Why do you have to be here?" Li Shimin was puzzled.

Chapter 252 Sleeping with five women in one night?

Why does it have to be here?It's really hard to answer this, Han Yue can't tell Li Shimin directly, my hometown was Shenyang before I crossed, so the emperor will definitely beat him to death as a demon...

"Your Majesty, Xiangping County has been inhabited since the Spring and Autumn Period. A small city was built during the Three Kingdoms period, but it was abandoned due to war and has never been inhabited. There are two main reasons why I want to build a city here."

"Two reasons?"

"Not bad! First, less than a hundred miles to the north of this place is the Jiapigou Gold Mine, and less than a hundred miles to the south, there are iron ore mines there."

Li Shimin was shocked, turned his head suddenly and said, "Iron ore? Is there still iron ore in the northeast?"

In ancient times, salt and iron were the most important industries of the country, and their status was not even lower than that of gold. With iron ore, the smelting industry could be developed, and then weapons and agricultural tools could be continuously made.

Han Yue smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there are not only iron ore mines in the northeast, but also huge reserves. From Xiangping County to the south are Anshan and Benxi. These two places are the gathering places of ethnic minorities Khitan and Xi. It's a pity that they I only know how to hunt and live in the mountains and forests, but I don’t know that there is wealth under my feet. The amount of iron ore in Anshan and Benxi is the largest in the world.”

Li Shimin's eyes were bright, and he hesitated: "Is this why you insist on building a city in Xiangping County?"

"Yes, Xiangping is only a hundred miles away from the gold mine and the iron mine, and it happens to be in the middle of the two mines. In addition, the area of ​​Xiangping County is fertile and black soil, and a little development will be a high-quality farmland. We build a city here, which can The development of industry can also take care of agriculture, which can kill two birds with one stone."

"Industry and agriculture are the foundation of a country and a family. Your reason is very good." Li Shimin nodded slowly, and then asked: "Then what about the second reason?"

"The second reason is of course manpower!" Han Yue smiled and said with ecstasy: "Actually, there is no shortage of people in Baishan and Heishui, and there are millions of ethnic minorities living in the mountains and forests. The minister should not only turn them into barbarian soldiers, but also turn them into barbarian soldiers. They have become excavators, mountain workers, lumberjacks... These types of jobs are tiring and hard work, and the ministers are reluctant to let the Han people do them."

Li Shimin is obviously also a nationalist. Hearing this, he laughed and said, "This is a good move, I support it!"

At this time, it was almost dusk, and the huge team slowly advanced. Suddenly, there was a sound of hooves in the distance, and several scouts came quickly and said loudly: "Report to Your Majesty, there is an abandoned town five miles ahead, with a broken wall. The ruins are everywhere, and I will follow the map and think that it is the ancient city of Xiangping County as mentioned by the Marquis of Jingyang."

Han Yue glanced at the emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, here we are!"

Li Shimin said "hmm", he jumped into the car with his son in his arms, pointed at Han Yue and cursed with a smile, "I'll give you back the donkey, hurry up and make arrangements for camping."

Han Yue seems to have been granted amnesty. He has already been in the car for a long time. Although the guards of the hundreds of horsemen around him pretended to be blind, people from the minister's motorcade in the distance lifted the curtain from time to time. I believe many people are talking about it.

This kind of taboo thing is really frightening.

He jumped back to the donkey, turned around and gave Li Shimin a hurried salute, then slapped the old white on the stomach, 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 fleeing figure and said, "Your Majesty, you seem to have frightened him, the concubine peeked from the carriage just now and found that Yue'er was sitting on the handlebar covered in Shaking, sweat all over my neck and back..."

Li Shimin snorted and said with a deep meaning: "This kid is good at everything, but his courage is a little less, and he will have to exercise more in the future."

"Then you can't be too hasty!" The eldest grandson gave her husband a glance and whispered: "You have been making big moves recently. You are both the governor and the king, and now you are forcing him to get in the car. It's anyone who changes this matter. You have to shiver. Your Majesty, can't you take it slow?"

"I can't wait for the time!" Li Shimin sighed softly, thinking that his thoughts were a little out of place, and said, "I have been on tour for nearly two years, and I am planning to return to Chang'an recently. Before leaving, I must teach him something."

The eldest grandson was startled and said eagerly: "Your Majesty, Yue'er has just come to Kanto, and he has not yet established a firm foothold. People are needed to build a city, to mine mines, and even more so to develop this place."

"A man has to fight on his own, and I always follow behind. When will he be able to be alone?" Li Shimin stood on the car with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance, and said lightly: "I have already thought about it. After ten days, the king will get up. Return. Brat has [-] Xuanjia iron cavalry, and people from Hebei and Shandong have also arrived one after another, no matter whether he builds a city or mines, he has no shortage of manpower."

The eldest grandson frowned and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you return the gold mine to the royal family?"

"Although it was returned to the royal family, he opened the mines. He only needs to pay me [-] catties of gold every year." Li Shimin glanced at his eldest grandson and joked, "As for whether he can withhold greed, it is up to him. I have the ability. I only need five hundred catties a year. If he has the ability to mine thousands of catties a year, I will not be envious of the extra five hundred gold."

Changsun's face was sluggish, and it took a long time for him to react. He rolled his eyes and turned his husband fiercely, saying: "I was almost blinded by you, how can there be gold mines that produce thousands of kilograms in one year? Great mine."
