There were a few white clouds floating in the blue sky, and the sky was as clear as a piece of Smurf jade with snowflake patterns.
It made Li Kuan's neck hurt when he looked down.
Shaking his head, the people coming in and out around him either saluted respectfully or simply ignored him.
Li Kuan suddenly felt that he was too small.
Although his small body had much greater strength than the average adult, he would always draw suspicious eyes if he wanted to step forward to help.
He had verified this before from his eldest grandson, Concubine Yang, and his eldest sister Princess Xiangcheng.
Each of them looked at his little arms and legs with suspicious eyes, which made Li Kuan hate his age.
The harem is now a busy mess.
Countless maids and eunuchs are busy moving things.
Although they have already divided what things should be moved to where, the palace is so big and these people live in scattered places, so they really have a lot of things.
Busy work, but there are no small things in the royal family.
Only these things can show the nobility of the royal family.
When moving a house, countless eunuchs and maids in the entire palace have to work for a long time to look high-end and classy.
If there were just a few people, wouldn't it be a shiver of leisure?
So it must be like this.
Even a flower pot that can be moved by a child has to be carried by two people.
This is the eldest grandson's explanation.
She is the oldest in this harem now, and there is no one.
People dare to disobey.
Putting aside the busyness of the harem for the time being, in the Tai Chi Palace, a very interesting activity was going on during the last court meeting held here.
What kind of activity is the auspiciousness coming from the sky?
I don’t know if it is not here.
When Li Er just ascended the throne, the auspiciousness came from the sky. , doesn't this mean that Li Er is the real emperor?
Those Xuanwumen murder brothers spread among the people in Chang'an City.
The rumors about forcing his father in the Tai Chi Hall will be shattered.
Li Er didn't know about this yet.
He only knew about the auspicious things after listening to Changsun Wuji's report.
Things have to start from before.
After Li Er announced the reforms he was going to carry out, moved the office location, and arranged all the confidants to their respective departments, Changsun Wuji came out and mentioned something to report.
Li Er asked him to explain it in detail, and this happened.
One scene.
An old farmer wearing coarse linen clothes walked tremblingly into the gate of Tai Chi Palace.
Looking at the high-ranking officials wearing various official robes standing on both sides, my steps started to tremble even more, and I could barely walk.
Holding a tray in hand.
It was covered with red cloth, and I didn’t know what was inside, but since it was served by an old farmer, it must be something produced in the land.
It seems to be something strange.
Hopefully I won't make a fool of myself.
"Master Gao, what do you think this is?
How dare you bring it to this hall?"
Xiao Yu approached Gao Shilian and asked in a low voice.
"Well, Mr.
Xiao has found the wrong person.
I didn't know, but my nephew didn't reveal it at all," Gao Shilian said embarrassedly.
Although he was Changsun Wuji's uncle, this nephew was much more capable than him.
Ever since the two brothers and sisters moved out of his house, they no longer discussed anything with him.

Changsun Wuji made all the decisions himself, so Gao Shilian really didn't know what was in the tray.
"Isn't it going to be a big joke like during the Daye years of the previous dynasty?"
Xiao Yu said with concern.
During the Daye period of the former Sui Dynasty, Jizhou officials reported that Qilin appeared in Jizhou, and spent countless manpower and material resources to finally capture the Qilin and transport it to Daxing City at that time, which was the predecessor of the current Chang'an City.
However, it was If you expose it, what kind of unicorn is it?
It’s just a pig, but it’s covered with gold foil and equipped with two fake antlers.
This became the talk of the common people in Daxing City after dinner at that time, which made them laugh for three times. months.
The local officials who reported auspiciousness were killed by the angry Emperor Yang.
From then on, officials no longer dared to say anything auspicious.
But now Changsun Wuji actually brought up this taboo topic, and even asked an old farmer to appear in the political hall.
It seems that he is quite sure, but I don't know if this auspiciousness will be exposed.
The old farmer's hair was gray, and his coarse linen clothes had two patches, but they were very clean and seemed to have been specially starched.
The hands holding the tray were covered with calluses, and the skin was bronzed by the scorching sun, and there were some faint age spots.
This old farmer is indeed very old.
In this era after the war, such old people are still rare.
Except for those from well-off families, the elderly from poor families either died in the war or died of starvation on the way to escape the war during these years of war. .
Therefore, Changsun Wuji could actually find such an old man, which showed that he was very attentive, which made Li Er feel relieved a little: "Since the auxiliary function can spend such effort, find an elder who is over sixty years old." , it seems that this so-called auspiciousness will probably not be embarrassing."
Under the watchful eyes of the civil and military officials of the court, the old man finally came to the center of the hall and knelt down: "The common people pay homage to the Holy One."
"Old man, please get up quickly, how can the people of the world afford it?"
Li Er quickly stood up from the throne, stepped down the steps, and helped the old man kneeling on the ground.
In this era, older age is also an advantage.
Wu Delu once clearly stipulated that if you are over sixty years old, you will not kneel when you go to the palace.
If you are over seventy years old, you will even defecate in the Jinluan Palace.
In other words, no one dares to punish you even if you poop or pee in this political hall.
This is the privilege of living a long life.
So the old farmer knelt down to Li Er, but Li Er didn't dare to really accept it, so he quickly stepped forward to help him.
When Li Er did this, the old farmer was excited.
The emperor had personally helped him.
The emperor had personally come to help him, a country bumpkin.
He couldn't believe it, his lips were trembling and he couldn't speak.
He placed the tray on the ground.
He didn't care about any auspiciousness.
The emperor was the greatest auspiciousness.
Later, when he returned to his village, he mentioned that he had been helped up by the emperor's own hands.
It was because Beier had face, and those guys who looked down on his old bones would not hesitate to marry their daughters to the two boys of their own.
Now the two boys in my family are blessed.
They don't have to pay a bride price to marry a girl from any family they want.
It's incredible that this old farmer was thinking about these things at this time instead of his fearful mind going blank.
But not many people in this era have seen the emperor.
In the minds of those farmers in the countryside, the emperor probably cultivated the land with a golden hoe, because in their minds they only had one concept of the emperor.
That is why the emperor is great.
Li Er helped the old farmer up, and Changsun Wuji picked up the tray on the ground: "Old gentleman, this is the auspiciousness you want to present to the emperor."
The old farmer is a tenant of Changsun's family.
Naturally, I knew my master.
When I saw Changsun Wuji speaking, I quickly continued as the master had told me before: "Exactly, this thing is the auspicious thing that the common people want to offer."

"Can you open the eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty?"
Changsun Wuji continued the conversation again.
Changsun Wuji went too far by doing this.
Li Er should have said this, but Li Er did not say anything at this time.
Because he only knew that his brother-in-law was not a person who didn't even have this sense of propriety.
The reason why he said this now was probably to guide the old farmer, since the emperor didn't say anything.
None of the civil and military officials would offend the newly enthroned Duke of Qi by talking too much.
"The auspicious gift is presented to His Majesty, of course to inform the world.
It is the things grown in one's own land.
I hope the Emperor can take notice of them."
The old farmer was brought into a state that had been practiced many times before by Changsun Wuji, and he started to speak.
Not so excited and nervous anymore.
"Oh, then my father-in-law, please tell me about this auspiciousness."
Li Er was also interested.
"Your Majesty, this is auspicious.
In fact, I have been planting it for several years, but there has been no harvest before, but this year it has suddenly changed.
This harvest is not much better than wheat, and after harvesting one crop, there will be more With another crop, we can harvest two more crops a year.
Compared with wheat, one acre of land can produce nearly half more crops every year, which is simply good news to the people."
The old farmer was very excited when talking about this thing.
Changsun Wuji had long ago forgotten all the words he had taught him to praise Li Er.
He was talking about the benefits of this kind of crops and praising Li Er.
It was better to leave it to his master.
"Is that so?
Why was the yield not high before, but this year there was so much more all of a sudden?"
Although Li Er has never really planted land, he also knows that the yield of a crop is about the same, and it is impossible to increase the yield all of a sudden.
There must be other reasons.
"I don't dare to deceive the emperor.
This grain, called rice, was given to you by the master's family to grow in the past two years.
However, it has always been empty and has not produced much.
This spring, I thought the young master would teach you how to grow it."
Planting, everyone doesn’t believe it, but the common people think that he is a noble son, so he doesn’t have to deceive us, haha, so The farmers followed the method taught by the young master and pulled out a lot of the densely planted rice.
Not long ago during the autumn harvest, the yield actually increased significantly.
Just two days ago, the second crop was harvested.
The yield is higher than growing wheat, and there are at least two stones of grain per acre of land,” the old farmer said endlessly.
But Li Er knew what it was when he heard the word "rice", and he gave it to Changsun Wuji himself.
It seemed that these old farmers had not grown it well over the years.
No wonder there has been no news since then.
But the sudden improvement this year seems to have been caused by my son.
"Old man, please show this auspicious sign to the ministers here to see if it is really what you said."
Li Er felt confident inexplicably.
Since his son had taken action, he must have received help from his master.
It must be true.
The "good" old farmer doesn't talk about obeying orders or anything like that.
He doesn't know these things yet.
He took the tray directly from Changsun Wuji's hand and uncovered the red silk covering it, revealing a bundle of golden rice.

The grains were full and the long ears were full of rice.
The old farmer untied the red ribbon and handed the ears of rice to the ministers who had been curious for a long time.
One by one, the civil and military ministers took the rice and looked at it carefully to see how it was different from the wheat they were familiar with.
The grains are a little smaller than wheat, but there are a lot more.
In this way, the yield of an ear of rice is about the same as that of a tree of wheat.
If the planting density is not much different, the yield will be similar.
But if this thing can really emit the first After the second crop, the yield will be much higher, which is important for For the Tang Dynasty, which was founded on agriculture, this was a huge blessing.
The annual grain output was half higher.
What is the concept?
This is undoubtedly a big propeller for the entire empire.
The development of the empire will become much faster.
Then the prosperous age when the world is peaceful and the people are prosperous is just around the corner.
The ministers thought a lot, and all of them looked happy.
This crop must be promoted and planted throughout Guanzhong, Hebei Province, and Shandong.
Then the sequelae left by the war will soon be healed, and the prosperous age will be prosperous.
The arrival of the epidemic will be getting closer and closer.
Thinking of this, these ministers who worry about the country and the people all day long have smiles on their lips, and each of them is even thinking about how much more food they can harvest from their few acres of land.
"I believe that this kind of food should be vigorously promoted."
Cui Xiang, as the most representative figure of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes in the court, was the first to jump out for the benefit of these families.
If they could grow this kind of food, Then their income will be greatly increased again, and the family's status will be more stable.
"I second the proposal" "I also second the proposal."
Ministers belonging to aristocratic families all stood up and asked to promote this kind of food, because their families will also gain huge benefits from this auspicious event.
That's why they support Cui Xiang like this.
Otherwise, there is also a lot of bad blood among the big families.
How could they all stand on the side of the Qinghe Cui family?
