Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty

Li Yuanying's guards returned to Beijing with a special carriage. There were no people on the carriage, but a few melons.

When Li Yuanying said he wanted to teach people to grow melons, everyone thought that Li Yuanying was an empty gloved white wolf, and wanted to deceive others to donate a building when he brought out something.

I heard that Li Yuanying really planted the watermelon, and solemnly asked people to come back to offer melons. Changsun Wuji and others were all interested, looking for various reasons to rely on His Majesty Li Er to see what it was like. Melon, let Li Yuanying say that he is the only one in the Tang Dynasty!

The people around Li Yuanying had gone out to practice with Dai Ting. They were not afraid of things when they were in danger. Even if the most distinguished people of the Tang Dynasty gathered together, they were not stage fright. A melon cutting skilled worker stood up and took charge of picking melons and picking melons. When he came out, he carried it to Li Erbi solemnly to introduce: It is not the best to eat, so it should be soaked in ice water for a short period of time. Then the melons taken out are ice and sweet, and they are guaranteed to be eaten. The heat is gone!

Seeing that the guard kept introducing him, Yuchi Jingde and others were too impatient to wait, but His Majesty Li Er didn’t say anything, so they had to listen to them, only muttering in their hearts: How come the people around Li Yuanying follow him One kind? In the past, these people didn’t see how special they were when they were in the Forbidden Army.

After the introduction of the guards, Li Er didn't let His Majesty Li Er wait too long. He picked up the knife and clicked and divided the melons into two, and then skillfully divided them into evenly thick slices.

At the moment when the melon was cut, everyone was attracted by its bright red flesh, and when I looked again, I saw the slices of watermelon so red that people’s eyes were bright, and even the dripping juice looked extraordinarily cute!

At this time, I thought that Li Yuanying had already promised this melon to the people of Huxian County to grow it. Many people felt a little annoyed: if you really know that it is such a good melon, they should also donate a building, so that they can also learn to grow it!

The guard who returned to Beijing to send melons introduced them at the right time. The black kernels on the melon flesh are watermelon seeds. It doesn't matter if you accidentally swallow them.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Since melon seeds are easy to obtain, there is nothing to regret. Those people can't help but sell melons, right? If they sell it, can they still break the melon and dig out the seeds before selling it? Obviously it is impossible! So this watermelon is like the sunflower that Li Yuanying sold at the beginning, only sold in the first year, everyone can follow it in the coming year!

As for how to plant it, you can find the seed slowly, and there is always a way to grow it. People from Huxian County donated money to the building anyway, and let them make a fresh year's worth of money first!

His Majesty Li Er did not have as many thoughts as Sun Wuji. His Majesty Li Er was very satisfied with Li Yuanying's good enlightenment that he planted good things and sent them back to him. He generously gave everyone a slice of watermelon, and asked someone to take the rest to the greenhouse and plant it. When he turned back, he tried the "iced watermelon" that Li Yuanying's guard said.

So the brothers shared a thin slice of melon to the people below, and both agreed that they were generous in allowing them to take the seeds from that slice of watermelon home.

In the evening, Sizi and the young princes and princes all had a taste for themselves, and some concubines in the harem also received rewards, all of them were rewarded on a piecemeal basis. The rest of them all went into His Majesty Li Er's own stomach, because this melon is very sweet and has a very appetite for him!

Seeing that there was no more food for the next day, His Majesty Li Er repaired a book and asked someone to send it to Huxian, so that Li Yuanying could send me some more melons. Only that few were not enough to eat!

On this day, Wei Zheng also divided the melons that his grandson-in-law asked people to send back with melon vines. He felt that this melon was pretty good, so he wrapped the seeds back in the same manner as the others, and planned to plant a few melons in the coming year.

When he didn't want to return home, Wei Zheng saw his wife Pei cooking the melon vines in the garden. Their yard does not grow flowers and plants, they grow fruits and vegetables, and they are basically self-sufficient all year round.

Seeing that Wei Zheng was back, Pei turned and smiled at him, saying that it was sent by Li Yuanying and Wei Shu during the day, and he wrote a booklet to teach her how to take care of it. When people arrived, she didn't let her do anything, and quickly helped her transplant the soil into the nursery. She went out to see this big and round watermelon when she was idle today, I was really afraid that it would be stolen!

Wei Zheng originally regretted not being able to bring it back for Pei's taste. Seeing that he also had one at home, his heart was refreshed, and he talked to Pei about sharing things in the palace during the day. With such a watermelon on it, Li Yuanying finally didn't want someone to pay for the building, and some people would not find a reason to scold him in the future!

Pei also heard that Li Yuanying was going to renovate the Palace of Supreme Harmony. It is said that many people were rushing to pay for it. She said: "Aren't those people all willing to pay? Why are there still people who want to scold Yuan Ying? Can you help Yuan Ying scold him back?"

Wei Zhengdao: "Is this something that can be scolded back?" The royal brothers saw that the treasury couldn't make money, so they went to cheat the wealthy families and wealthy families to pay. It's okay for him to open one eye and close another , I really want to roll up my sleeves to help scold him back, maybe I will be poked and scolded by someone in the second half of my life!

Pei's just mentioned it casually. Hearing Wei Zheng's words, he didn't say much, and went into the house with Wei Zheng, picked up the watermelon floating in the water tank, and said to Wei Zheng with a smile: "This melon has been soaked in cold water for a long time. Now, it’s cold to the touch, and the small ones aren’t there. After a while, we cut one person and half. Yuan Ying said that holding half a watermelon spoon to eat is the most comfortable."

Wei Zheng thought that His Majesty Li Er would only cut one slice for everyone during the day. He was happy, and he agreed with Pei's words: "Come, we will hold half of the food in a moment."

Not only did Wei Zheng share half a melon with Pei, and he was satisfied with the meal, he also wrote a poem to praise the melon, and said that half of the two of them were satisfied with the meal, but they were a little bit holding up and finished eating. It takes a few walks in the yard to be more comfortable. In the end, he pretended to reflect on it. The water overflowed when the water was full, and the monthly profit was lost.

It is common for literati to write poems, and they are generally written for self-expression. Since it is an expression, there must be an audience. Wei Zheng shared his new poem with his colleagues the next day, indicating that this is his own insight.

When Changsun Wuji and the others heard it, his face turned black.

You have a great grandson-in-law, just give you a few watermelons. Is it necessary to show off? You old Wei has been sick, are you confused? Do you remember that you are a straight minister!

His Majesty Li Er's complexion was not so good, this kid actually gave a double copy, one in the palace, and one in Wei Zheng's family! Fart is a bit older, it's diligent to please the Yue family!

Li Yuanying, who was still obediently dealing with official duties in Huxian County, sneezed and looked at the sky and found that it was overcast, as if it was about to rain. He gave an order, and the servants underneath swiftly packed up the office supplies, and moved back to the temporary official house built by the lake before it rained.

Li Yuanying pulled Wei Shu back along the shore of the lake, and only halfway there, when the rain was all over the sky, he slammed down. The left and right were about to go forward and give them umbrellas, but Li Yuanying felt that the rain was coming happily, and no one was allowed to keep him out.

Li Yuanying turned her head and asked Wei Shu, "It's raining well. Didn't everyone worry about the drought if it hasn't rained for too long a few days ago? Don't worry about it now!" Li Yuanying has been there since childhood. Controlling it, he hadn't gotten wet yet, when there was rain suddenly on the way, he was a little eager to try, "Why don't we run back!"

Seeing Li Yuanying's expression of interest, Wei Shu wouldn't discourage him, and let him run back holding his hand.

Both of them were still half-old children. No one could stop the bear from getting up. They were half wet anyway. On the way back, they simply stepped on the puddle accumulated on the ground, and both of them splashed all over. water.

Li Yuanying dragged Wei Shu back to the official house. She was addicted. When the two returned to the official house, they were pulled away by Di Renjie and Wu Mei. They took a hot bath and thought deeply. educate.

Di Renjie thinks this guy Li Yuanying is very reliable when doing things, usually it is not at all tuned, he wants to come to the lake to work, saying that it is cooler here, and everyone depends on him. But today he was really messing around. He has seen people rushing to take shelter from the rain, and never seen someone caught in the rain. What if he catches a cold?

Di Renjie whispered bitterly to Li Yuanying.

Not only was Li Yuanying not afraid of Di Renjie’s muttering, she turned around and exposed her back to Di Renjie, and asked Di Renjie: "Can you wipe my back for me? I can't reach it behind!"

Di Renjie glared at him, and in the end he had no choice but to rub his back while continuing to chant to him, "You are so sorry, I'm sorry, your mother, I'm sorry to care about your relatives and friends."

On the other side, Wu Mei is helping Wei Shu dry her long hair, Chengyang is teaching Wei Shu: "Girls are born with cold bodies and can't get rain. How can you mess around with Uncle Yao?"

Wei Shu obediently admitted his mistake.

Chengyang was a little helpless. She felt that Wei Shu was going to be badly taught by Li Yuanying. This is how Li Yuanying would always humbly admit his mistakes, what bad things should he do or what bad things should he do afterwards!

Jin Shengman asked Wei Shu, "How does it feel to be in the rain?"

Wei Shu thought for a while, and said, "It's very enjoyable." At that moment, she had no worries, no worries, no thoughts about unreasonable reasons, no thoughts of cold and illness. In fact, it has always been like this with Li Yuanying, he doesn't have to think about anything, as long as he has a good time with Li Yuanying.

After hearing Chengyang's lesson, Wei Shu also felt that this was indeed wrong. However, if Li Yuanying invites her again, she will still run with Li Yuanying.

Jin Shengman smiled and walked to the other side to help Wei Shu comb her long hair, and in turn persuaded Chengyang: "Which children don't mess around, don't hold them too much in Chengyang."

She was about to return to Silla. Her cousin was not in good health and had no children to wait on her side. The family kept asking her to go back quickly. Her family members cryptically mentioned in the letter that the cousin has no heirs, and she is likely to succeed him at that time. In that position, there can be no true friends, no true husbands, or even their own children, otherwise they will all be involved in the whirlpool of power.

After arriving in the Tang Dynasty, Jin Shengman heard people say that the emperor often said that he was lonely and widowed. Thinking about it carefully, being the king of a country, the lord of a country, is not a lonely family. It is for this reason that she likes to watch Li Yuanying and Wei Shu, the pair of children joking with joy every day. Such a memory may be the most vivid and liveliest day in her life.

Chengyang looked at Wei Shu with a humble face, Wu Mei who hadn't said a word, and Jin Shengman who was speaking for Wei Shu. Finally, he could only sigh, and said nothing more. Even though these two people are younger than her, in fact they are her uncle and aunt in terms of seniority!

Fortunately, Li Yuanying both had good health. They took a hot bath, dried their hair, and drank a bowl of cold soup, and both of them became vigorous again. Chengyang observed for two days and found that they hadn't even sneezed. He finally felt relieved, but he still found the people who accompanied him and told them that they must never let Li Yuanying come along.

Li Yuanying happened to ran into Chengyang and asked someone to stare at him, and took Chengyang to look at him for a long time. Chengyang glared at him: "What's the matter? I can't tell the people around you yet?"

Li Yuanying said: "Yes, of course! I just looked at you as the mistress of the house. Is the emperor brother asking someone to prepare for your marriage?" When talking about Chengyang's marriage, Li Yuanying remembered before. In the past few years, he took Li Zhi to test Du He, and it seemed that it was not very suitable. Last year, he packed Du He into the royal mission and went to Tubo, and he didn't know if Du He had grown up. Thinking of this, Li Yuanying directly took Chengyang's hand and asked, "You have also met Du He in the Imperial College, think he is good? Would you like to change someone?"

Chengyang said: "You also know that the emperor is calling people to prepare, how can there be any reason for substitution?" Chengyang didn't blush when only the two of them were there, and talked about his own considerations. Earlier, she didn't like Du He very much, thinking that he was a dude. Later, after seeing him in the Imperial College a few times, she felt that although this person was a bit publicist, it would not be too bad. Thinking about Duke Lai’s early arrival, if she regrets the marriage, she would really be sorry to Duke Lai, she doesn't want to be such a villain.

Li Yuanying said: "Since you are going to marry him, then I have to give you some dowry."

Chengyang finally became a little embarrassed, and said: "Dowry and other self-management, there are accurate numbers." Even if His Majesty Li Er wanted to give her more, Wei Zheng and the others would jump out and say that Yu Li was not in harmony. You marry this princess beyond the standard, what should you do when you marry other princesses? Can't open this bad head!

Li Yuanying is kind and good: "Then I will wait for you to marry and then give it to you, you keep it as private property!"

Li Yuanying was talking to Chengyang about the marriage contract, but Chang'an City fell into a fall because of another marriage.

That day Gao Yang led someone to block Fang Jun in front of Pingkangfang, and said with a whip: "Even if all the men in the world are dead, I won't marry you!"

The author has something to say:

Wei Zheng: My grandson-in-law gave me so many melons to support me. I wrote a poem to commemorate Fang Xuanling: Shameless!

Changsun Wuji: Shameless!

His Majesty Li Er: Shameless!
