Chapter 116 Not Enough Food

Thanks to my friends from Bookshelf, Hehe6248 and Tearful Cloud for the tip, thank you all for your support!

#################

"Your Majesty, princes Li Tai and Li Ke have come to pay their respects." Eunuch Gao raised his voice in the outer room to attract Li Shimin's attention.

"Let them come in." Li Shimin let go of Queen Changsun's hand and straightened up on the couch.

Empress Changsun glanced at him with a smile in her eyes, her husband was like a child sometimes.

"My son, Li Tai, would like to send my regards to my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen."

"My son, Li Ke, would like to pay my respects to my father and mother." Li Ke knelt down next to Li Tai.

At first, Lin Yi taught others magic, and Li Tai didn't pay much attention to it, but now so many people are learning it, he has also become curious. However, he feels that Gao Ming is not in the palace, which is a good time for him to please his father and mother, so

During this period of time, he studied hard, and came to greet his father and mother every day. His father always tested his homework, and he was very satisfied every day. He felt like the life in Zhongshan Prince's Palace had returned during these days.

However, his father and mother only doted on him, causing him to ignore Gao Ming's threat.

But the news Wu Lu learned made him feel a sense of crisis again. It turned out that Gao Ming went to Zhongshan Prince's Mansion to learn something very important - magic circle, and his father attached great importance to this. He was unbalanced. Why did he just

If I can learn from him, I, Li Tai, will be much smarter than him.

So he found Li Ke and planned to rope him in to ask his father to learn magic.

Li Ke was helpless. He had no interest in this magic. So what if he had learned to make many weird things? He was just a senior craftsman. He really didn't understand how Li Chengqian and Li Tai, who had noble status, could be so enthusiastic. But he didn't

So I refused Li Tai and had no choice but to come with him.

"Get up, how is Ke'er studying lately?" Li Shimin always did not forget to test the academic performance of his sons.

"Reporting to my father, I have been studying Zuo Zhuan's "Song and Chu Ping" recently." Li Ke reported the truth. He had been mentally prepared before coming. But he had not yet decided whether to tell his heart if his father asked him.

doubt.

"Hmm... Reading history makes people wise. What have you learned from this article?" Li Shimin thought about the main idea of ​​this article in his heart. It meant that the envoy sent by King Zhuang of Chu passed through the Song Dynasty, but did not report to the Song Dynasty.

The Song State borrowed a road, and the Song king killed him in anger, which triggered a war between the two countries. The Song State asked the Jin State for help, but the Jin State was afraid of trouble and did not send reinforcements.

Never surrender. However, Xie Yang was caught by the King of Chuzhuang on the way. He planned to kill him, but he made a sudden plan to let Xie Yang sit on the carriage and tell the Song Dynasty that the Jin State would not reinforce him. Xie Yang

He pretended to agree, but at the critical moment he passed on the King of Jin's words and adhered to the principle of "trusting no two orders". In the end, the Chu State and the Song State made peace and signed an alliance, saying: "I have no deceit from you, and you have no danger from me."

"

All in all, this article is difficult to understand and contains too many truths.

"My child feels that there must be integrity between the king and his ministers, so that the ministers will serve the king to the death, but this does not seem to be the case between countries, but..." Li Ke said hesitantly.

"But you feel that it is inconsistent with the way of a saint? Don't worry about it. Just know how to treat others with integrity." Li Shimin patted Li Ke's little head, but did not explain to him what the way of a king is.

Anyway, I didn't plan to pass the Tang Dynasty to him, so he didn't need to understand these things.

"Father, I heard that the prince brother is learning magic from King Zhongshan. Can brother Ke and I also learn magic?" Li Tai has been wanting to interrupt for a long time.

"Oh? Are you also interested?" Li Shimin asked with raised eyebrows.

Li Tai and Li Ke nodded at the same time.

While Li Shimin was meditating, Eunuch Gao outside reported again: "Wang Lin of Zhongshan also requested an audience."

"Just in time, he's here, you can ask him directly." Li Shimin didn't want them to learn, but after thinking about the consequences, the children of the ministers had also learned, so he couldn't be too harsh on his own children, so he turned around and asked Lin Yi to teach them all.

Just do it.

Lin Yi came into the Li Zheng Palace, bowed to the emperor and the queen, and said hello to Li Tai and Li Ke, then stood there obediently without saying a word.

Li Tai looked around, then took a step forward and said to Lin Yi: "Brother Ke and I want to learn magic from the prince. I wonder if the prince is willing to teach us?"

Lin Yi tilted his head and looked at him, "Of course I'll teach you. If you want to learn, just say it."

"In that case, Xiaoyi will go to Baifu Hall to teach you later. You go down and wait first." Li Shimin spoke.

Li Tai understood that his father had something to discuss with Lin Yi. Fortunately, Lin Yi was not of royal blood, otherwise he would definitely be the most favored one.

"Godfather, why aren't you allowed to sell alcohol?" Lin Yi felt a little more comfortable after Li Tai and the others went down.

"You have the nerve to ask? The people are almost out of food." Li Shimin glared at him angrily.

"Ah?" Lin Yi was a little confused.

"You don't want to think about it. That wine is made from grain, and if you purify it, you will need more grain. The wine sells well, but the price of grain in the capital has doubled. Of course it cannot

Sell ​​it again. It is estimated that for a long time, this wine can only be used as tribute and reward to ministers." Empress Changsun said happily.

Oh, it turns out that's what happened. He didn't think about it at all and was just busy endorsing it.

But my godmother’s attitude is good, and what she says is much nicer than what my godfather says.

"Tell me, how can you remedy the consequences you caused?" Li Shimin leaned on the sofa, crossed his legs, squinted his eyes and teased Lin Yi with a half-smile.

Lin Yi's eyes widened. Was this... caused by him? Although it's true to say that, but... it's too shameless to blame it all on him?

"Xiao Yi, you have also lived without food. You know what it feels like. Food is the first priority for the people, and the country is based on the people. If you can come up with a way to increase production, what's the point?

Has everything been solved? Do you think so?" Queen Changsun said while peeling the apple in her hand, and after peeling it, she handed it directly to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi took it instinctively, thinking about the question raised by Empress Changsun just now. To increase production? It's not impossible, it's just a little troublesome. First, he can improve farming equipment. Although he has never been exposed to this in his previous life, he believes it should not be a problem.

Secondly, he can improve the seeds. This aspect may require Sun Simiao's help. He is not sure whether he can succeed. This is not even his specialty.

Looking at Lin Yi who was deep in thought, Queen Changsun and Li Shimin looked at each other and smiled.

Li Shimin was very happy. He knew that Guanyin could understand his thoughts and could cooperate so seamlessly without even discussing.

Crystals are necessary, and then he has to make processing equipment such as lathes first, and he also has to conduct on-site inspections and design machinery. Even if he has enough crystals, it will take several months. Not to mention the

He was doing an experiment. Lin Yi was eating the apple while thinking about it. He didn't wake up until Empress Changsun snatched the apple core from his hand.

"Silly boy, you almost ate the core." Queen Changsun said with a hint of blame, wiping Lin Yi's mouth with a handkerchief.

Lin Yi took a step back unnaturally, took the handkerchief from his godmother's hand, and wiped his mouth clean.

"There are some ways." Lin Yi said lightly.

The eyes of Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji both lit up. Is there a way? This Xiaoyi is very smart. If he can solve the problem that no one has ever been able to solve, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty will be certain.
