The next day.

15:00 (9:15).

There were still some scattered snow that had not completely melted, and the weather was still sunny.

Yesterday, we squeezed 200 kilograms of sugarcane juice. The servants have mastered the white sugar extraction process. This time, the sugar yield of sugarcane will be higher, and 22 kilograms of white sugar can be extracted from 200 kilograms.

"Zhang Long, bring your tools, let's go to the sweet potato field to dig a few plants and have a look!"

Su Chen considered that it would take about three months for the sweet potatoes to be planted. If there was continuous snowfall, he was worried that they would rot in the field.

He had no experience in this area, and only knew that the seeds given by the system had a growth period of three months.

"My Lord, a few of us will go and dig them. I'm sure the road will be muddy and inconvenient to walk after the snow melts." Zhang Long clasped his fists.

Su Chen looked down at the boots on his feet.

"Okay, then go ahead and dig three sweet potato tubers to see how they grow!"

"Yes, Lord!"

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu immediately ran to the warehouse where the farm tools were stored.

"Brother-in-law!"

Little Sizi ran out of the living room and rushed to Su Chen to hug his legs.

"Have you finished your homework today?"

Su Chen looked down at the little girl and asked seriously.

"Yeah, I'm done!"

"Hehe, what did you come to me for?" Su Chen smiled immediately when he saw the cute little girl.

"Sizi wants... wants to eat bacon!"

She only knew that she was going to have hot pot at noon today, and she was worried that there would be no bacon, so she came to Su Chen to ask for accommodating. The salty and fragrant bacon made her unforgettable.

The people of the Tang Dynasty had a very popular habit of pickling pickles. Meat was rare, but not completely absent.

Little Sizi was just young, so she didn't eat much pickled food.

"Okay! Shall we go to the kitchen now?" Su Chen also planned to see how the hot pot ingredients were prepared, and by the way, see if there were any new ingredients to add.

"Okay! Okay!"

Little Sizi immediately let go of Su Chen, clapping her hands and applauding happily.

Su Chen smiled and took the little girl's hand. Just as he was about to go to the kitchen, he saw someone coming to the door of the manor.

"I meet you, Lord!"

The school security guard came to Su Chen and saluted.

Su Chen was very confused. Why did the school security guard come to the manor at this time?

"What's the matter?" Su Chen smiled and nodded. He was very familiar with the school security guards. When he sent Princess Changle back to school several times at noon, he would chat with them.

"Lord, the princess ordered me to come to the manor to ask you for six bottles of cold medicine."

The school security guard clasped his fists and saluted to explain his purpose.

Su Chen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

It must be that a student has a cold, so there is no need to worry about misdiagnosis. That day, Su Chen told Princess Changle about the symptoms of a cold. Even if it wasn't a cold, taking cold medicine wouldn't have adverse consequences for people.

"It seems that the temperature dropped sharply after the snow in the past two days, and the elementary school students couldn't bear it!"

"Xiao Sizi, you and Sister Jin'er go to the kitchen first, I'll be there soon." Su Chen looked down at her and smiled slightly.

"Yeah!"

The little girl nodded obediently and let go of Su Chen's hand.

"Wait here for a while, I'll get the cold medicine!" Su Chen said to the school security again, and quickly ran to Sun Si's remote control.

"Okay, my lord!"

After a while, Su Chen returned with a piece of cloth carrying the cold medicine.

"Here are twelve bottles of cold medicine granules, you give them all to the princess." Su Chen handed the cloth bag to the security guard.

"Okay, my lord, I'll take my leave!"

The school security bowed and turned to leave the manor square.

'Hiss~! The school should have a medical room! Well, I will discuss with Li Tai some other day, and the school will set up a medical room next semester. ’

Su Chen thought for a moment and walked towards the kitchen.

…………

"Gao Ming, tell me your opinion on this matter in detail!"

A team of people was driving on Changle Avenue, five miles away from the manor.

In the luxurious carriage, Li Shimin held a piece of paper about three fingers wide in his hand, and his face was full of thinking.

Originally, after the morning court, Li Chengqian and Su Yan planned to leave the palace and go to the manor, but the Ministry of War received a pigeon message from Youzhou.

So, Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian to stay in the imperial study to discuss matters.

"Father, I think the same as my uncle. Those war horses returned to Youzhou alone, which does not necessarily mean that the owner of the horse has died in battle."

Li Chengqian's words were the same as Li Shimin's answer when he asked a question in the imperial study.

"Father, do you still remember what my brother-in-law said in the restaurant when he talked about guerrilla tactics? Without supplies, we had to rob everything and eat whatever we robbed."

Li Shimin nodded silently and motioned Li Chengqian to continue.

"So I guess that maybe the guerrilla soldiers killed the Turkic cavalry and took the enemy's war horses for themselves. But they couldn't bear to kill the original war horses, so they took the war horses.All equipment was released into the wild. "

"Perhaps the old horse knew the way and ran back to Youzhou by coincidence."

Anyone who has been on the battlefield knows what war horses mean to soldiers. Soldiers would not kill horses to satisfy their hunger unless in extreme circumstances.

Moreover, spoils of war are more valued on the battlefield. Not to mention war horses, sometimes soldiers' slightly better clothes would be stripped off.

Therefore, Li Chengqian concluded that these war horses were released into the wild by humans, not that the war horse owners died.

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he read the Feixin again.

Although it is not 100% certain that the dozen wild horses in Youzhou belong to the Hou Junji guerrillas, at least 70% of the reason can be explained.

Otherwise, it is unclear why the wild horses running from the Turkic direction seem to be domesticated war horses and are not afraid of people.

If they are really wild horses, a dozen or twenty people can't think of taking down a wild horse intact.

"Well, it makes sense! I have sent an order to Youzhou to send the sixteen war horses back to Chang'an."

"I want to ask for credit for those war horses!"

Li Shimin slapped his thigh, looking a little excited.

There were only four people in the carriage, and Empress Changsun smiled and glanced at Li Shimin.

Only General Tiance could ask for credit for the war horses!

Li Shimin had not planned to come to the manor today, but he happened to have news from Hou Junji, so he came to the manor by the way.

Besides, it was the first time that the Crown Princess and her future son-in-law met.

As the head of the family, Li Shimin should be present.

"Su Yan, Su Chen has an easy-going personality and doesn't pay much attention to conventional etiquette, so you don't need to be too polite. "

Empress Changsun sat with Su Yan and briefly talked about Su Chen.

Although Su Yan was the Crown Princess, Princess Changle was very important to Li Shimin. Maybe the Crown Princess would have to pay respect to Su Chen first.

What's more, Su Chen's status in the eyes of the emperor was almost unmatched.

So it was not surprising that the Crown Princess paid respect to her brother-in-law.

"Haha! That kid just doesn't know the etiquette. Why does Guanyin need to speak well of him!" Li Shimin put down the note in his hand and smiled disdainfully.

"Mother, the Crown Prince and his daughter-in-law said that Su Chen treats people sincerely and doesn't care about empty courtesy. "

Su Yan smiled gently and looked up at Li Chengqian who was standing opposite her.

Li Chengqian didn't say that to Su Yan at the beginning. His original words were similar to Li Shimin's, saying that Su Chen didn't know etiquette and was unlearned.

Anyway, you can belittle him as much as you want!

"Crown Princess, when you get to the manor later, don't take the initiative to talk to that kid. I want to make that kid lose face."

"Hahaha...!" Li Shimin had a plan in mind and wanted to suppress Su Chen.

Li Shimin knew. Li Chengqian had never talked to Su Chen about the Crown Princess, and Su Chen didn't even know whether Li Chengqian was married.

I guess Su Chen didn't know that there was a person like Su Yan.

Empress Changsun rolled her eyes at Li Shimin. This emperor always wanted to make things difficult for Su Chen.
