Chapter 5 Tuning Taizong
The five of them feasted in the private room. During this period, it is worth mentioning that Dugu Feng also drank a glass of wine under the guidance of the two brats. The direct result was that her face was always red, and when she saw
Li Jiancheng looked at Dugufeng's face, and Li Jiancheng didn't know if he had drunk too much, so he impulsively spilled out a poem he had learned in his previous life:
"On this day last year, in this door, the human face and the peach blossoms reflected each other's red. The human faces did not know where to go, but the peach blossoms still smiled at the spring breeze." Listening to Li Jiancheng's poem, although he didn't know what it meant, Dugu Feng still knew that it was talking about himself.
So I happily wrote down the poem.
"I didn't know that Brother Jiancheng has such ability. It's really admirable." Dugu Wen is still a bit knowledgeable, so it can be seen that this poem is quite good. Of course, he cannot understand the meaning of the poem, otherwise he may have to sigh.
Already.
"Haha, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!" Li Jiancheng, who was a little dizzy after drinking, didn't know what I meant by "ashamed". Whether he was ashamed of using other people's poems for his own use, or whether he was ashamed of Dugu Wen's praise, he couldn't tell.
After eating and drinking, the five people left the restaurant, and Dugu Wen said goodbye to Li Jiancheng and the others. Because they had been out for a long time, they didn't want their family to worry, so they had to go back early. But after hearing this reason, they originally wanted to stay a little longer.
Dugu Feng reluctantly said goodbye to Li Jiancheng. As for Li Shimin and Li Yuanji, she automatically excluded them. When leaving, she told Li Jiancheng that he wanted to visit her when he had time! Li Jiancheng was also speechless.
What's the fun in being a little brat at your age? But under her tearful gaze, she could only agree perfunctorily for the time being, and then they parted ways.
"Brother, can you also write poetry? Why didn't I know that earlier?" Li Shimin was seduced by Li Jiancheng before and drank wine. Although he was not angry, he was still a child and forgot about it after a while. He was smiling now.
asked.
"Haha... I don't know. Maybe I had a sudden inspiration after drinking just now." Faced with Li Shimin's question, Li Jiancheng could only give a specious answer.
"Oh! Brother, where are we going next?" Li Shimin was so excited. Children are playful after all, and their thinking is beyond the reach of ordinary people. At this time, Li Shimin suddenly forgot about the question he just asked.
, and then asked where to go next.
"Well... follow me." Li Jiancheng thought for a while and then led the way, while Li Shimin and Li Yuanji were hanging behind him like tails. A few people hidden in secret were hanging behind him.
Li Jiancheng took Li Shimin and Li Yuanji to the farm outside Daxing City. The sun in September was still as fierce as ever. When they got here, the three of them were already sweating. Li Shimin, who was a child, had no feelings for Li Yuanji, while Li Jiancheng was
They had suffered enough, so the three of them said nothing.
"Brother, what are we doing here?" Li Shimin was very surprised to see the green crops, but he was also confused about what we were doing here.
"Have you seen those green plants? Those are the things that provide us with rice, and those things are grown by the farmers who are working." Li Jiancheng pointed to the farmers working in the fields and explained to his second brother Shimin.
"Wow! It turns out that this is how our food comes, but they are so pitiful! The weather is so hot and they still have to work. I just can't stand walking in such weather. How do they persist?
Come down." Li Shimin said with a puzzled look.
"They have to rely on this to live, and because of our father's status, we have no worries about food and clothing, but they are different from us." Li Jiancheng continued to explain patiently. Li Shimin seemed to be affected by such a scene, and listened again
After Li Jiancheng's words, he lowered his head silently and pondered. Anyway, Li Jiancheng didn't know what he was thinking. But he replied after a while, after all, children don't have so many thoughts.
"Brother, you look so comfortable. Where should we go next?" Li Shimin was very interested in the several places he visited today, so he was full of expectations for the places he would go next.
"You will know if you just follow me." Li Jiancheng continued to talk, and then led the way. Originally, he wanted to go out to the drinking market today, but then he took his second brother to visit these places on a whim. As for the third brother,
It's incidental.
He took Li Shimin and Li Yuanji to a place where poor people gathered, pointed at the ragged people and said: "Some of them lost their parents when they were young, and some became like this after disasters happened. In short, they live in
The people here are poor and have difficulties in life, but instead of taking care of them, the state persecutes them."
Li Shimin felt a little sad when he saw it, but Li Jiancheng took them away when he saw him like this. However, what he saw and heard today left a great impact on his heart. In the future, after he ascends the throne, he will treat the people in need
He was very caring, so all the officials and people loved him very much, and all the officials praised him highly. He recalled: "This is all because my elder brother took me to see the lives of poor people when I was young. Maybe
It was my eldest brother's foresight that made me understand their situation, and I was able to use this to encourage myself to be kind to the people. Therefore, the one who is truly worthy of praise should be my eldest brother." But at this time, they had long since lost sight of Li Jiancheng.
.
After leaving the slums, Li Jiancheng felt that Shimin was still a little sad, but he didn't say much, leaving it up to him to release the shackles in his heart. Li Jiancheng was thinking about how to find someone to make high-concentration wine, and how to make it.
Where can I get the drinking utensils?
"Master, my husband-in-law joined the army and died in the battle. Now we are the only ones in the family, so we can't afford the tax money at all. Please give me some time, and I will definitely get the tax money together." Li Jiancheng was walking when he suddenly heard something.
When the voice came, I turned around and saw a woman in coarse linen clothes kneeling on the ground begging to a man in military uniform with a beautiful little girl on her arm.
"No, you have to hand over the tax bank today. You have been given grace for such a long time, and the superiors have also urged you. If you can't hand it over, you will hand over your daughter as a mortgage." The officer said and asked the two men behind him.
The soldier stepped forward and pulled the little girl.
Seeing the serious sadness of the little girl, Li Jiancheng thought of the scene where he was alone in his previous life and was bullied in junior high school. So he shouted to the soldiers: "Stop."
Hearing Li Jiancheng's voice, the soldiers subconsciously stopped and looked at him, and the woman and the little girl also turned their heads to look. After seeing several children, the soldiers continued to pull the little girl, while the woman remained expressionless.
Sad look.
Li Jiancheng saw that the soldiers still didn't stop, so he shouted again: "Stop, I paid their tax money." He took out some money and threw it over, and asked: "Is that enough?" The soldier
Seeing that he had so much money at once, I originally wanted to deceive him, but thinking that he had so much money at such an age, I guess he was either rich or noble, so they took the money and left.
"Little Master, thank you for your help, but I don't know when I can pay back the money." The woman said with a worried look. Seeing that the woman was thinking about this, he thought in his heart
This woman is also a kind person. Suddenly, Li Jiancheng had an idea in his head. In this case, can he let her help me sell wine? The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became, so Li Jiancheng said to her: "I have one thing I hope to do."
