The next day, a piece of news was spread to the houses of all the major families, dignitaries, and officials in Chang'an City, which shocked all the aristocratic families, dignitaries, and officials, and they could no longer sit still.
The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan has been running to Lijiazhuang these days. He actually built many glass houses with glass in Lijiazhuang. Moreover, these glass houses are as warm as summer, and they are full of vegetables, just like a fairyland.
The most important thing is that the vegetables inside have all grown up and can be picked and eaten.
"Old man Cheng, are all the news circulating in Chang'an City true?"
After the morning court, some generals who were familiar with Cheng Zhijie directly surrounded Cheng Zhijie, a big-mouthed man.
"what news?"
"Did the Emperor grow vegetables in winter?"
"Moreover, it is still in a house made entirely of glass greenhouses, and it is very warm inside..."
"Old man Cheng, why aren't you surprised at all?"
After talking for a long time, these old guys suddenly discovered that Cheng Zhijie, who was always the most easily excited, actually had a calm face.
"Why be surprised?"
"Those are vegetables grown in winter. According to legend, these vegetables are grown using immortal methods. After eating them, they can enhance their strength on the bed, and if women eat them, they can beautify their skin!"
An old guy with an extremely wretched appearance was talking excitedly while drooling.
"I eat them every day, why didn't I notice those effects? Is it possible that because of my great magical power, those effects of vegetables are no longer effective on me?"
After speaking quietly, Cheng Zhijie lowered his head and looked around, his face so proud that all the old men around him wanted to smash the stinky face in front of them.
"Bah, you old man, how can you say this with an old face? There are eighteen ladies in my family, and you are the only one..."
"Huh? Mr. Cheng, you said you have eaten it?"
"It's natural. This old guy stepped on dog shit. That bastard Cheng Chusi actually had the opportunity to be like the prince and become the disciple of the master in Lijiazhuang. Naturally, he had the opportunity to bring back some vegetables!
"
"I see!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at Cheng Zhijie with disdain on their faces.
"Tsk, why do I need that treacherous child to bring to me? I'm greedy, so I just go to the backyard of my house and pick some and eat it!"
As he spoke, Cheng Zhijie held his head high and his face was full of pride.
"However, one thing you all said is very reasonable. The vegetables grown in glass greenhouses are really crispy, tender and sweet!"
"What?"
"Do you, an old fellow, grow vegetables in your backyard?"
"How is it possible, you old guy, are you trying to deceive me?"
All the old guys were full of doubts.
"Hmph, you old guys, don't believe it!"
Cheng Zhijie said: "I, Prince Hejian, Da Heitan and others have all built glass greenhouses in their houses. You can grow whatever vegetables you want to eat yourself. Why do you need to eat those from other people's homes?"
"It's true. Could it be that you are trying to trick me?"
"You old man, when did I ever deceive you?"
Bah! When did you, an old fellow, pass by?
In their hearts, everyone spat hard at Cheng Zhijie, who had never shown shame in front of them.
Immediately, he directly picked up Cheng Zhijie and hurried to Cheng's mansion.
A quarter of an hour later.
All the generals looked at the glass house in front of them, which was made entirely of glass, with shock on their faces.
"You old man is really willing to give up. A piece of glass is money. How much does such a big glass house cost?"
However, these were a group of big-hearted military generals. After being surprised for a long time, they opened the small door on the side and got in.
"hiss……"
In an instant, all the generals looked at the neat vegetable gardens in front of them, and their eyes widened.
"Old man Cheng, is this true?"
"Hey!"
Cheng Zhijie sneered, picked a cucumber that was more than a foot long, stroked it with his hands, put it directly into his mouth, and started to bite it.
"Is it really edible?"
Seeing this, all the old guys couldn't bear it any longer. They all put one stick in their mouths and started to bite.
"Old man, these are all winter vegetables!"
Seeing these old guys eating cucumbers, Cheng Zhijie naturally felt distressed.
"It's a winter vegetable, I know!"
“So sweet!”
"I didn't expect that someone could actually grow vegetables in winter!"
Seeing a bunch of old guys wreaking havoc in his vegetable garden, Cheng Zhijie looked regretful.
You are so stupid, why would you show off your glass greenhouse to these old thieves?
After suffering for half an hour, Cheng Zhijie finally sent these old people out of the house with a sad face. Then he quickly ran back to the glass greenhouse, looking at the vegetables that were obviously missing a lot, and felt extremely heartbroken.
…
At the same time, a group of ministers were already standing outside the Liangyi Hall.
When the time was almost up, Li Shimin opened his mouth and let the ministers in.
"I have met your Majesty!"
"Why don't you all go to the government office to do errands? Why do you all come to Liangyi Palace?"
After completing the etiquette, Li Shimin asked quietly.
"Your Majesty, I have a great news to report!"
An old minister tremblingly raised his hands to Li Shimin and said.
"oh?"
Li Shimin looked curious, "I wonder what happened that made Mr. Xiao so excited?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Supreme Emperor grew vegetables in a glass house in Lijiazhuang in the south of the city?"
"There is such a thing!"
Li Shimin nodded slowly.
"Your Majesty, do you really have such magical means?"
After hearing this, all the ministers in the palace were full of surprise.
"Everyone, come with me!"
With that said, Li Shimin stood up directly and went to the Imperial Garden.
Behind him, all the ministers looked at each other and quickly followed.
A large number of ministers followed Li Shimin to the Imperial Garden.
Suddenly, everyone's faces were filled with surprise.
In front of them was a house made of glass.
"Your Majesty, could it be that this glass house is..."
Xiao Yu asked with a happy face.
"Exactly!"
After saying that, Li Shimin had already opened the side door of the glass greenhouse, "Everyone can go in and take a look!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Immediately, all the ministers followed Li Shimin and walked inside with faces full of joy.
As for some officials who could not enter, they quickly climbed up after seeing the small walls on both sides of the greenhouse.
When I saw the scene inside through the glass, I was immediately shocked.
In the large space inside, there are vegetables growing, which look bright green and delicious!
The expressions on the faces of the ministers wandering around the greenhouse were even more shocking.
Are these all vegetables grown in winter?
"This is the blessing of our Tang Dynasty!"
"What a blessing for the country..."
"A peasant saint also came out of our Tang Dynasty..."
The ministers wandered around the one-acre vegetable garden for a full hour before they came out at Li Shimin's urging with a look of reluctance.
Fortunately, Li Shimin informed him that there are more than 200 glass greenhouses owned by the Emperor outside the city. In a few days, some ministers will be allowed to go to watch and pick.
At this time, all these ministers were overjoyed.
Immediately, some ministers said goodbye to their colleagues in a hurry and ran to the mansion.
Then, one by one, the servants of the nobles' houses, carrying the letters tightly in their arms, rode out of the city on horseback.
As for Wang Gui, Wang Hui and others, although their faces were full of depression, there was nothing they could do!
