Prince Shen of time travel
Chapter 41
The ice sent by Cao Tongpan was placed in an ice cellar alone. As soon as the door of the ice cellar was opened, Shen Hexi clearly felt that the temperature here was much lower than other ice cellars.
The appearance of the ice cellar is the same, but there are four neat rows of ice bricks here. Each ice brick is about the size of two bricks. The ice bricks are crystal clear and there is nothing unusual about them.
"Are these ice bricks collected from the mountains, or made by myself?" Shen Hexi turned to ask Shen Gao.
"My lord, these small ice bricks were made by Cao Tongping himself last year. The ice bricks we picked on the mountain are much bigger than this."
The snow-capped mountains are extremely cold. If the ice that needs to be harvested is all the size of a brick, the people who go out to harvest ice will probably be exhausted, and they will not be able to harvest much.The smallest ice bricks they picked were one meter high, and they were only cut when needed after they were shipped back.This can not only reduce the loss during transportation, but also facilitate storage.
Shen Hexi, a foodie, has always had a sensitive nose. Standing in front of the ice brick, he smelled a faint fragrance. How could this ice still have a smell?
"Take an ice brick and send it to my bedroom. The king will remember this first. If the vegetables that Shen Gao sent into the ice cellar are broken, you can go directly to the mine to dig iron ore."
"Yes, the villain will never make the same mistake again." With a plop, Shen Gao knelt directly on the cold bluestone slab, the prince did not convict him, and the green vegetables that went into the cellar later, he was very energetic Take care, from the ice to the soil used, he has personally handled it, and will never use someone else's.
Coming out of the ice cellar, Li Bohan hugged Shen Hexi and asked softly, "What did Xiao Xier find?"
"I didn't find anything, I just felt that there must be something strange about it. I've never heard of anyone's ice cellar freezing vegetables before." Shen Hexi pursed his lips.
That's right, in Yong'an City, I only heard that the temperature of the ice cellar was not enough to fully melt the ice, but I never heard of the temperature of the ice cellar being too high, which spoiled the vegetables.
The ice in the copper basin gradually melted, and the fragrance that Shen Hexi smelled became stronger and stronger, and even Li Baihan could smell it.At this time, Li Baihan also had to believe that the ice had indeed been tampered with.It's just that who would do this, destroy all the vegetables in the palace, and let the prince eat the meat for a whole winter, the person who does this is boring enough.
This matter cannot be found out right away, Shen Hexi asked Bai Qing to show the water in the copper basin to his personal physician to check, to see if he could see what was mixed in it.
"Aunt Qing, yesterday I sent people out to search for vegetables, but I found them all."
"I've already bought some, and now I'm putting them in the side hall." It's not easy for Bai Qing to be in charge. Now she is the biggest official in the palace, and she usually has the most things to do. She is like a spinning top that keeps spinning. People in the palace can eat vegetables this winter, and she almost turned Dunliang City upside down, but there are very few vegetables sold in the market this year.After two days of harvesting, she only collected some sweet potatoes and cabbage.Those few carts were collected from Zhuangzi outside Dunliang City, and all of them together couldn't survive the autumn.
"I'll go and see what's there." When Shen Hexi heard that there were vegetable seeds, his mood immediately improved. As long as there were seeds, he could still eat without vegetables.
Jinlan Hall has two side halls, the left side hall is for Shen Hexi to eat, and the right side hall is for storing various sundries.This time, only Shen Hexi, Li Baihan and Bai Qing went to Zuo Piandian, and there was no one else.
There are eight large bamboo baskets stacked in the hall on the right side, and there are some paper bags, large and small, in each bamboo basket.The paper bag has the name written on it.Shen Hexi picked up the smallest one with courgette written on it.He knew that the so-called courgettes were cucumbers, and it was said that they were introduced to Qingmu country from far away, and almost every household in Yong'an City planted them.
The most in this pile of paper packets are cabbage, spinach, various beans, soybeans, sword beans, lentils, etc. There are many varieties, and there are many beans that Shen Hexi has never seen before.
"Aunt Qing, do white crystals grow on the mountains near Dunliang City?" Shen Hexi asked.
"Yes, we have a lot of white crystals in Qingmu. There is a white crystal mine next to the iron mine, but there are very few people mining it there." Bai Qing replied after thinking for a while.She also only vaguely heard someone say that there is a white crystal mine next to the iron mine, but she doesn't know if there are still people mining it now.
White crystal is not a valuable thing, and its texture is too hard, so the demand is not large.
"Didn't Brother Han say that there is no iron mine here? Why do you always hear about the iron mine? Is it still mining now?" Shen Hexi is not the first time to hear the name of the iron mine, Qingmu The sinners who were exiled in the country were all sent to iron mines to work as coolies. Last time, Shen Zhou also got his personal guards, and the iron mines served as guards. This iron mine and the one Li Baihan mentioned have been closed. There shouldn't be one iron mine.
"This iron mine was specially set up by Prefect Liu to manage exiled criminals. Although it is an iron mine, it produces very little ore every year." Bai Qing explained.
Shen Hexi understood that they had set up a fake iron mine in order to find jobs for the exiled people, but the imperial court would transfer money to this fake iron mine every year. The magistrate Liu's abacus was loud enough, and it is estimated that all the money that came over was Into his own pocket.
"In the afternoon, let's go to the mine and take a look at the hot springs. I've never seen hot springs before." Shen Hexi was a poor worker in his previous life, and he was reluctant to go to high-end places like hot springs.Fate is good in this life, reincarnated as a prince, he will enjoy it anyway.
Taking a bath in the water drawn from the hot spring is definitely not as comfortable as taking a bath in the hot spring directly. He will go there to have a look. If the hot spring is really good, he will build a separate courtyard there, and wait for the winter to soak in the hot spring and eat. Cook meat in a hot spring, hehe, this little day is so beautiful.
Shen Hexi smirked alone here, Li Baihan raised his eyebrows helplessly, what was his little Xier thinking about.
After being busy in the morning, Shen Hexi was a little hungry, but he still had a very important matter to deal with, and Shen Zhou was going to be executed at noon today.He is not interested in seeing such a horrible criminal law of dismemberment by five horses, but the servants in his palace still have to take a look. If they want to kill the lord, they must first check whether their arms and legs are strong enough.
Except for Shen Hexi's personal guards, all the guards, maids, servants, and servants in the palace went to watch the execution. The chicken was killed, and it was up to them whether the remaining monkeys would be honest.
Without a bunch of waiters, Shen Hexi had a comfortable lunch. He wanted to take a nap, but just as he lay down, he was woken up by Yan Nu's knock on the door, "My lord, there is a sound coming from the east. According to the news, Mr. Linghu set off for Dunliang City more than a month ago, and I am afraid that he will be able to tell in the next few days." Yan Nu said standing outside the inner hall.
"Did you say what's the matter, did it delay their journey?" Shen Hexi got up abruptly, it was time for him to employ people, and if old man Linghu came, many things would be much easier to handle.
"It is said that Shen Zhou's people have been poisoning Mr. Linghu's medicine, which made his cold worse. Later, Mr. Linghu found out, and he led people to kill the guards left by Shen Zhou before he escaped."
"Well, is this old man Linghu quite powerful?" Shen Hexi had already gotten up and asked Yan Nu to come in.
"Mr. Linghu is a man of great wisdom, those villains will definitely not be able to trap him."
Linghu was the former guest of the Prince's Mansion, and he was well-known before he entered the Prince's Mansion. Li Jiayou always regarded him highly when he entered the Prince's Mansion.
Li Jiayou, who became the emperor, originally wanted him to stay in Yong'an City and give him a third-rank official position.But when this person heard that Shen Hexi became Queen of Dunliang, he volunteered to come to Dunliang City to assist Shen Hexi in governing this small border town.
Sending a person with great wisdom to a small remote place is simply reckless, but Linghu Zheng has a stubborn temper, and Li Jiayou has no choice but to fulfill his wish.
"Tell the person at the concierge that if Mr. Linghu comes, report it immediately." Shen Hexi was no longer sleepy, and continued to ask, "When will the gift wheat seeds we bought arrive? Yan Nu will hurry up and tell them to hurry up. Don't delay the planting period next spring."
"It is estimated that we will arrive in late autumn and early winter." Shen Hexi is very careful about the errands that Shen Hexi entrusts to Yan Nu. He uses the caravan of Liujiabao to help transport the gift of wheat. Every time he arrives at a larger post station, he will send a letter. For him, he estimated that the caravan would be able to reach Dunliang City in two months.
The main reason why the caravan walked so slowly was because the road in Dunliang Mansion was really difficult, and Shen Hexi and the others couldn't feel it when they were riding on horseback.But the caravans used four-wheeled carriages, and it was not bad to be able to travel 30 miles a day. If they encountered difficult mountain roads, they would not even be able to travel 30 miles a day.
Shen Hexi, who was no longer sleepy, tidied up, and headed to the mine in a mighty manner with his lord's guard of honor.He has just been in Dunliang City for two days, but he has attracted the attention of many people.Especially after he dismembered Shen Wuma's body in the vegetable market, the city of Dunliang was even more undercurrent.
In the past, Dunliang City was an unattended city because the sky was high and the emperor was far away. The officials in this city were all the local emperors. Suddenly, a prince came by air. They had a little resistance at first. Someone secretly tampered with the ice that was given to him, and all the vegetables in the palace were frozen.According to common sense, Prince Shen, who has no food to eat, must ask for some from the biggest official in Dunliang City, the magistrate Liu.If this is the case, Prince Shen's face will be completely lost.
It's a pity that what they met was Wan Yue, this fake prince doesn't care at all, as long as he has food and drink, as for the life and death of those who serve him, he doesn't care about his affairs.
Liu Zhifu and the others froze Lord Shen’s green vegetables, but they observed for a long time, but they didn’t see Shen Wang asked to contact him. Full of doubts, Liu Zhifu sent a boy to inquire about the situation. He has a lot of eyeliner, and it doesn't take half a day to know that Lord Shen is an idiot.
Prince Shen, who is having fun all day long, doesn't care about anything, let alone the political affairs of his fiefdom. He has been here for so long, and he has never been summoned by an official.
Now the officials in Dunliang City are relieved, there is an incompetent Prince Shen, what should they do, don't care about him.
As the head of the officials, Liu Zhifu must have more eyes than other officials. He sent spies to observe for another month, and he was relieved when he saw that there was really nothing to worry about.
It's just that his heart had just dropped, and before he got over it, there was a sudden news that Prince Shen had dragged the chief manager of his family to the vegetable market and divided him into pieces.It was like a drop of water dropped into a frying pan, and it exploded instantly.
Why did the idiot Lord Shen suddenly kill his chief executive? After hearing the news, Liu Zhifu hurriedly sent someone to investigate. This time, his spies discovered that all the former eyeliners were sent to the outer courtyard, and some were even taken to the mine. Even if he could get in touch with one or two eyeliners, the eyeliners didn't dare to say more, they only said that Shen Zhou killed the lord and was divided into five horses by Lord Shen.As for other things, they don't know.
Oh, and one more thing, Lord Shen went to the mine in the afternoon.Hearing the report from his spies, Prefect Liu almost spat blood on his face. Anyone with eyes could see Prince Shen's guard of honor marching through the city mightily, and even used him to investigate.
The appearance of the ice cellar is the same, but there are four neat rows of ice bricks here. Each ice brick is about the size of two bricks. The ice bricks are crystal clear and there is nothing unusual about them.
"Are these ice bricks collected from the mountains, or made by myself?" Shen Hexi turned to ask Shen Gao.
