"This is Liangzhou Baidie?" Liang Feng's eyes lit up when he looked at the potted plant in front of the emperor.
Only in front of the flower pot with exquisite patterns, there is a strange plant. The stems have straight and broad leaves, with a few fluffy, white fruits on top, which are quite cute when trimmed.
"Your Majesty, this is exactly what it is. Unfortunately, this is not the season, so we can only enjoy the fruit. By the summer of next year, Bai Die will be able to bloom. It is white at first, and then dark red, which is really beautiful." That cool The state messenger immediately reported.
"Viewing flowers?" Liang Feng raised his eyebrows, took off a white fruit, and kneaded it in his hands. Soft and fluffy, but there are also a lot of seeds, which are a little sticky. But even so, this is cotton!
After the spring of this year, the war against Qinzhou began. This time, it is to completely wipe out the remnants of the Huns, and it will naturally not be too easy. However, the water and land went hand in hand, and the transportation of grain and troops saved a lot of effort. Under the condition that Guanzhong was further stabilized, the advance of the front line was also very smooth. In just half a year, the Xiongnu were crushed in Longxi. Surrender or fall, it is only a matter of time.
The change of the genus of Yong and Qin states also stimulated Liangzhou next door.
When Liang Feng ascended the throne, the governor of Liangzhou was still Zhang Ji. This person is the grandson of the prince of Changshan Mountain in the Western Han Dynasty, and his family is also a prominent family in Yongzhou. When he was young, he was very famous, but he learned a lot and was appointed to serve in Liangzhou. Under his rule, Liangzhou was emptied of bandits in just a few years, and the people lived happily. Zhang Gui's reputation also spread throughout Hexi. Because of this, the people of Yong and relatives fled to Liangzhou to avoid disasters during the years of war and chaos, which made this corner of the Western Regions prosperous.
This person was also extremely loyal to the Jin Dynasty. During the rebellion of the Eight Kings, not only did he not cut off his donations, but he also sent troops to the King several times to relieve the crisis. Therefore, when Liang Feng became independent, Liangzhou did not obey Da Zhao, but respected Sima Rui of Jiangdong.
However, Zhang Ji passed away two years ago, and things changed. First, the northern land was gradually pacified, the decree of equalizing the land was issued, and the refugees from all over the country began to migrate to the Zhao state. Liangzhou had no manpower available, and had to be coerced by the Xiongnu and Xianbei people. The second is the instability of people's hearts. The only remaining king of Sima County also rebelled and almost seized Zhang's political power.
After so many years of hard work, the Huns retreated steadily, seeing Yong and Qin changing hands. Zhang Wei, the current governor who succeeded his father, was moved. Naturally, Da Zhao would not miss the opportunity, and immediately gave Zhang Yu an official title, and offered the sweetness of "reopening the Silk Road".
Liangzhou relies on commercial roads, and the Hexi Corridor is more prosperous because of the Silk Road. It's just that the wars continued, and the Silk Road that used to be long ago was deserted and no longer what it used to be. Now that the Northland is about to be unified, the temptation to reopen the Silk Road is greater.
After some tweaking, Zhang Hao finally received the award from the state of Zhao, holding the festival and the military commander of Liangzhou, receiving the prefect of Liangzhou, and guarding the Qiang Colonel.
The military and political power was put into the hands of Zhang Yu, and he naturally wanted to express it. Not only did he send his son to Luoyang to study at the Chongwen Museum, but he also prepared a bunch of local specialties for offering. Among them was Bai Die, whom the Great Zhao Tianzi specifically asked for by name.
But to Liang Feng, these dozen or so cotton plants were much more valuable than a few boxes of gold and silver.
"Is this thing only for viewing in Liangzhou? No one uses it for weaving?" Liang Feng asked curiously.
The messenger was a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, this thing is very short and has a lot of seeds. How can it be woven? Most of it is a kind of entertainment in the courtyard, and it's good."
White stacks have more seeds, more sons and more blessings, wherever they are placed are good intentions.
Liang Feng couldn't help laughing, and tugged at the cotton peach in his hand again. It seemed that this was not a long-pile variety. But even so, plant it first!
"There is cloth in the south, called 'Jibei', and it is made of kapok. I like the color and white craftsmanship very much. Now this Liangzhou white fold has a similar feel to the hand. If you can weave cloth, it should be a good product. The commander-in-chief finds more white sturgeon seeds, and I will send the Agricultural and Political Department to Liangzhou to select and breed new species." Liang Feng led the way.
Liang Feng is not sure whether kapok can weave cloth, but cotton is bound to be able to. Even if it is rough cotton, you can also play cotton to make a cotton coat. However, it is necessary to find a way to deseed cotton. Only manual deseeding is extremely unfavorable for promotion. This thing is to be used by the common people. As long as reliable planting methods are researched, Henan and Shandong can plant them in large quantities. Over the years, the weather has tended to turn colder. With so many crops, I don't know how many lives could be saved.
The emperor ordered, who dares not to obey? The messenger quickly knelt down to take orders. Ganbao on the side did not neglect, and quickly wrote down, making a note on the living note. The longer he stayed with the emperor, the more he got used to this sudden interest. Before, the emperor also ordered that the counties and counties in the Jianghuai region planted taro in rotation to increase the rations of the people.
Taro does not smell very much, and it is rare in the north. I am afraid that it is only today that people will think that people can use this fruit to preserve it? Just like the white stack in front of me, it is obviously a flower, but it is used to spin cloth, which is also whimsical.
After walking away for a while, Ganbao reinvigorated himself and concentrated on recording. After a while, the emperor went down, and he also left with the side arched hall.
The emperor does not like to ride a chariot, if the weather is good, the palace is all on foot. It will take some time to walk all the way from the Chaotang to the Hanging Hall. Every day is like this, even a living man like Ganbao can walk down with his eyes closed. Yulinwei and Longxiangwei, who were on guard on both sides of the road, even turned a blind eye.
Enough is enough!
When General Cong Yi changed into new clothes, Nei Wei's clothes also changed inexplicably. The sleeves and trousers are drawn, and the waist is tight and narrow, but it looks tall and straight when worn on the body. But when the Son of Heaven passed by, the eagerness in the eyes of those people could not be concealed. I can't wait to put my chest up to the sky, put my belly into a vest, and there is no miscellaneous beard under my chin. I only hope that my own strong fitness materials and bright appearance will make the emperor take a look.
These days, it's even more ostentatious. Some people's armor can light up three points. There is no way, who let General Yi go out to fight, not in the palace
As a living man, Gan Bao has seen General Yi's attendants countless times. Although the living note does not involve the inner curtain, Ganbao also knows that General Yi will probably spend a lot of time in Gongye. There are a few lucky people around the emperor.
Could it be that the Son of Heaven looks like General Yi? Or because "the widow has a disease", making him pay more attention to his body and appearance? You must know that the appearance of the saint today is the highest in the court, and he does not like to grow beards. Even if he is nearly forty, his appearance is still very beautiful and admirable. If you are lucky enough to be with the Son of Heaven, you can reach the sky in one step!
However, no matter what the following conjectures are, over the years, no one has been added to the emperor's couch. It also made many Yulin guards and even former officials feel embarrassed.
Now that General Yi is not there, I am afraid that someone else is thinking about Jinxing.
Looking at the nose and the heart, Gan Bao silently followed the imperial driver and walked towards the Hall of Hanging Arches. Who knew that just after passing through the atrium, the emperor suddenly stopped and looked around.
This time, not to mention Ganbao, everyone in front of the imperial family looked over there in unison. I saw where the emperor was watching, a Longchung guard was standing under the corridor. It looks like he is only in his early twenties, Qi Yu is high-spirited, and his eyebrows are handsome. Standing solemnly, quite a bit not angry and arrogant.
Ganbao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the emperor took a fancy to this person
It is estimated that many people think so. Several eyes immediately became hot. That Long Xiangwei probably felt something was wrong, but he didn't dare to move at will, but just stood stiffly on the side of the road, his expression changed a little.
No one dared to speak out, but the emperor chuckled: "What's your name?"
That Long Xiangwei immediately knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty, the last general Xu Ye is the nephew of the Shenwu Army Zhenyuan general Xu Hua."
Whether it is Longchung or Yulin, most of them are from aristocratic families. General Zhenyuan is a military rank under the fourth rank, and should be a mid-level general in the Shenwu Army. Being able to send his son and nephew to Longchung's army is either from an extraordinary family background or outstanding talent. The Xu family doesn't seem to be a famous family...
"Xu Hua..." Liang Feng thought about it for a while, but he couldn't think of the person's prefecture, so he said to Xu Ye, "Get up."
Xu Ye got up slowly, the gun in his hand was tightly clenched. The way the emperor looked at him was really strange. Could it be... Could he have fallen into the emperor's eyes
Xu Ye is not a manly woman, and has a beautiful wife and concubine at home. But the man in front of him is the Son of Heaven! If he was lucky, how could he refuse? If General Yi finds out, will he trouble him
The mess in his heart was like a mess, but Xu Ye's eyes shone with light, and he was engrossed in looking at the emperor, only hoping that the other party would open his mouth again. However, Liang Feng just glanced at him again, shook his head with a smile, and continued to walk forward.
Xu Ye was stunned there. What does it mean
Others were also confused and confused. But the emperor didn't get to the bottom of what he meant, and he forgot about people in a blink of an eye. A few days later, the general in the hall presented a memorial, saying that there are several talents in Longchong Guard who are outstanding and can be relocated. The first name on the memorial is "Xu Ye"!
"Arriving at Shiqian Palace to be on duty at night?" Liang Feng glanced at the general in the hall with a half-smiling smile, "Since you are extremely talented, you should put it in the army. Let's turn to the Shenwei Army."
The Shenwei Army is also a pro-army of the Son of Heaven. This job is not bad, but unfortunately, the cavalry are all the confidants of General Yi. Send Xu Ye, what does this mean
The sweat on the forehead of the general in the hall was dripping, and he repeatedly promised. Liang Feng was amused. He looked at Xu Ye more that day, but it was because he looked a little like him. Not the "Liang Feng" of this era, but the original shell. However, this person's surname is Xu, not Liang, so I'm afraid it has little to do with himself in later generations.
The excitement caused the people below to rack their brains. I really can't blame the number of faint-hearted kings, there are really countless people who are good at "figuring out the holy meaning".
Gan Bao, who was sitting next to him, recorded his daily notes with a blank face. Involuntarily, a story came up in his mind. There are dragons who like Wusun's horses, and they are always intimate. Others offer ordinary horses, but they will be swallowed in one bite. People are amazed at the time... I will consider the words when I get home, and write them down in the book I wrote when I was idle.
The author has something to say: Hey, Ganbao was originally a historian. Not pure code words, writing novels is just a hobby.
Also, you think too much, you don't care about the inner palace, you only care about the affairs of the outer court.
