Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 542

From the knowledge of the two guards, they felt that no one would be impatient and dare to pretend to be the prince, but seeing Gao Ming pretending to be a casual dress and holding two cows, they really couldn't connect him with the prince .

"Could this guy be the prince? Could it be a fake?"

Thinking of this, the two looked suspiciously at Gao Ming.

Looking at the suspicion in the guard's eyes, Gao Ming didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually the prince of the Tang Dynasty!"

"..."

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, he just looked at himself suspiciously. Gao Ming also knew that it would be impossible to just rely on his words, so he had to take out his waist card and show it to the guard.

"Here, this is my badge, take it and have a look!"

Seeing that Gao Ming had taken out his badges, the expressions of the two guards changed again.

The token Gao Ming gave was not an ordinary token, but a Tiance Admiral's token that symbolized his status as Tiance Admiral. The two guards in front of him were obviously from Qianniuwei, so they recognized them immediately.

After recognizing Gao Ming's token, the two quickly knelt down on one knee, then bowed to Gao Ming with their fists clasped.

"It turned out that it was His Royal Highness who was face to face. I am so stupid, and I hope His Highness will forgive me!"

Seeing the fear and sincerity of the two, Gao Ming immediately smiled and waved his hands.

"Okay, those who don't know are not guilty, get up first, there are so many people here, it's okay to cause any trouble!"

"Yes!"

Hearing what Gao Ming said, the two breathed a sigh of relief. One of them got up and returned the token to Gao Ming with both hands, while the other hurried to help Gao Ming lead the cow.

Looking at this scene, Gao Ming also knew that the two were planning to "make up for their mistakes", so he didn't refuse them. After taking back the token, he handed them the rope tied with two cows, and he turned towards Li Shimin. The direction in which to go.

At this time, Li Shimin was also looking for Gao Ming, but in order to maintain his majesty, he couldn't look around in full view, so he could only turn his head slightly and look for Gao Ming wherever he could see.

At this time, Li Shimin was already a little anxious, because he came out with great fanfare this time just to show off. If Gao Ming let his pigeons go, then in a short period of time, it is impossible for him to come out like this again.

"Gao Ming, where did he go?"

Just when Li Shimin was getting a little anxious, Gao Ming's smiling voice sounded from behind him.

"Hey, old man, do you miss me?"

"Ok?"

After hearing Gao Ming's voice, Li Shimin turned around and saw Gao Ming standing behind him with a smile on his face. At the same time, he also saw the two guards behind Gao Ming holding cows.

Seeing this scene, he immediately raised his eyebrows at Gao Ming.

"Why are you here now? Are you ready?"

"Ok!"

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Gao Ming nodded immediately, and then grinned at Li Shimin.

"Everything is ready, I just need to go to work, hehe!"

"That's good!"

Seeing Gao Ming's confident smile, Li Shimin also nodded, and then got off the chariot.

After getting down, Li Shimin took off his robe, rolled up his sleeves, and raised his chin towards Gao Ming at the same time.

"Now that you're ready, let's get started!"

"Start? Right here?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming's eyes widened immediately, and he looked at Li Shimin in disbelief.

"Isn't Huangzhuang on the other side of Nanshan?"

Seeing Gao Ming's incredible expression, Li Shimin nodded again, and then smiled at him.

"That's right, it's right here. It's too far away from Nanshan Mountain, and all the food has been planted. Now there is only a dozen or so acres of open land left around Chang'an!"

"Is this the only place left?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming immediately grinned, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"Since we have exempted half of the people's taxes, the people have been very active in farming. They always plant when the season comes, for fear of late harvest, but now this place is still deserted. In my opinion, the land here is probably owned by some big man. The field at home, right?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, before Li Shimin could speak, a familiar voice sounded beside him.

"His Royal Highness's words make the old minister feel ashamed. To be honest, the fifteen acres of land belong to the old official's family. Because of negligence, I hope His Royal Highness will forgive me!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Gao Ming turned his head and found the eldest grandson Wuji who was bowing to him with a helpless face.

Seeing this scene, he immediately laughed.

"Haha, it turns out that this land belongs to my uncle's house. No wonder I saw you when I brought my son to catch locusts last year. By the way, uncle, how long have you not planted this land? Do you want it?"

"..."

Seeing Gao Ming's half-smile expression, Changsun Wuji's expression became even more helpless. He gave a wry smile, and then cupped his hands again towards Gao Ming.

"What His Royal Highness said is that this land has been deserted for almost a year, and the old minister is no longer able to cultivate it, so he decided to return this field to His Majesty!"

In Changsun Wuji's view, first of all, since Gao Ming handed over the brown sugar business to him, the Changsun family will definitely not be short of money in the future. Compared with the brown sugar business, the output of more than ten mu of land is really not counted. What.

On the other hand, Changsun Wuji, as a veteran of the court, can naturally see that Li Shimin and Gao Ming have plans to take back the sealed land. Now that he understands this, he, the "first brother" of the court, naturally has to do it. Just set an example.

It happened that Li Shimin planned to come to work in the field, so he simply took this opportunity to donate the land. After all, according to the three cardinal guides and five constant rules, if Li Shimin helped him with the work, how would he, a subject, deal with himself?

It was precisely in consideration of these things that Changsun Wuji simply returned the land happily, so that there was nothing awkward about it.

Gao Ming didn't know how many turns Changsun Wuji had made in his heart before, but now that he had returned the land, he immediately laughed.

"Haha, that's a good relationship. If that's the case, let's stop talking nonsense and start working!"

Having said that, Gao Ming turned his head to look at Li Shimin again, and smiled at him.

"Hey, old man, when we use this ox to plow the land, one person must lead it in front and the other will hold the plow in the back. How about you go lead the ox and let me handle the plow in the back?"

"Okay! That's it!"

Li Shimin didn't know how to plow the ground. He used to use a hoe to plan the ground blindly, but plowing is not something that can be done blindly, so when he heard Gao Ming asked him to lead the ox in front, he agreed without thinking. down.

Seeing that Li Shimin agreed, Gao Ming took the rope of the cow with the nose ring from the guard behind him, handed it to Li Shimin, and smiled at him.

"Then let's get started!"

"Ok!"
