The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 191 Quyuanli? Yongan plow!

Seeing the craftsmen sweating, Li Xinni directly asked for the mung bean soup that had been brewing for a long time. Not long after distributing it, the carpenter suddenly said:

"Princess Yong'an, it has been made!"

"Oh!"

Li Xinni stood up quickly, couldn't wait to come to the courtyard, and looked at the plow already standing in the courtyard.

"very good!"

Li Xinni looked at the plow that had been made, with a satisfied smile on her face.

Then he couldn't wait to reach out and touch it, observe carefully, and compare it with the plow in his mind to see if it was the same.

After a moment, she stood up, looked at the craftsmen on the side, and said: "You guys wait here first, I need to try to see if this plow saves more effort."

After saying that, Li Xinni directed the waiters on the side to carry the plow, and then immediately took the carriage to the outside of the city.

It is difficult to perform operations inside the city, and there is no cultivated land, so it is more convenient outside the city.

Outside Princess Yong'an's residence.

Someone saw Princess Yong'an leaving the house in a hurry, and the direction she was going was outside the city. They suddenly looked confused, and of course, curious, and hurriedly followed her.

Under Lishan Mountain, lush trees grow densely, and there are people living next to Lishan Mountain, where there is traffic, and chickens and dogs hear each other.

Among them, they were planting crops, holding oxen in their hands, or carrying hoes on their shoulders.

Li Xinni arrived here on a princess carriage, went directly to a forest, and asked someone to move the plow from the carriage.

At the same time, he asked his servants to borrow cattle from common people nearby to pull the plow.

After everything was ready, everyone was waiting for Yong'an Princess Li Xinni's order, but Yong'an Princess Li Xinni looked around and looked at the treetops, but did not see a familiar figure.

Shaking his head slightly, he looked at everyone and said, "Let's begin!"

"Snapped!"

With a gentle crack of the whip, the ox slowly moved forward. The plow tip quickly penetrated into the soil, and was then pulled out of a long and deep ravine.

"Back to the princess, it seems that the princess's plow works better than the plow at home!"

But I saw an old man looking at the ox pulling the plow, so surprised.

However, Li Xinni was not happy because of the people's words, and said again: "Let people pull it, pull the new plow and the old plow, and experience for yourself which one is more labor-saving!"

Following Li Xinni's order, someone immediately volunteered to try the two plows respectively. After that, they looked at Princess Yong'an excitedly and said, "The princess's plow is more labor-saving!"

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Li Xinni immediately relaxed in her heart, and then, worried, she asked the ox to pull it around a few more times, making the soil in the woods softer.

……

……

"How, can it be successful?"

Bai Zhi, who was staying in the courtyard, asked after seeing Li Xinni returning.

In fact, Bai Zhi already has the answer in his mind. The historical Quyu plow can replace the more old-fashioned plow, and it must have great advantages. At this time, the plow made by Li Xinni is basically the same as the Quyu plow, so the answer is already there. And it’s a metaphor.

Hearing Bai Zhi's question, a smile suddenly appeared on Li Xinni's face, but she saw that there were some dead leaves left on her body, which were obviously obtained when she was experimenting with a new plow outside.

It contrasted with the coarse cloth dress she was wearing, making her look like a village girl.

However, her beautiful face swept away the village girl's temperament, and she seemed to have turned into a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.

"Uh-huh!"

Li Xinni nodded, her eyes as moist as clear springs, looking at Bai Zhi, and said: "Thank you to the divine bird. If it weren't for the divine bird's guidance, Xinni would not have been able to make this plow so smoothly."

"This is all your fault..."

Bai Zhi shook his head, "I'm just giving ideas from the side!"

"You should give this plow a name, though."

Bai Zhi suggested.

"In that case, let's call it the Divine Bird Plow!"

Li Xinni said without hesitation.

However, Bai Zhi shook his head after hearing this and said bluntly, "I don't like it, so why not call it Yong'an Plow? After all, it was made by you, Princess Yong'an!"

"No, I don't have much credit..."

Li Xinni shook her head quickly, her beautiful hair waving at her temples and forehead. Apparently she didn't dare to take credit, nor did she want to take credit.

Looking at such a simple woman, Bai Zhi smiled. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would be able to see at a glance what an honor it is to name a new farm tool!

Even, it will be remembered forever and be admired by the world!

And with Li Xinni's intelligence, how could he not have thought of this?

However, she did not do so.

Li Xinni, who has a simple nature and a girlish heart, also has a strong balance in her heart.

After thinking about it, Bai Zhi suggested: "In that case, let's name it Quyulili!"

"Quyuanli..."

Hearing this, Li Xinni couldn't help but look at the plow that had been moved back. The trunk of the plow was curved, which fit the word "curved".

So she nodded slightly and said, "Then let's call it Quyuanli!"

"correct……"

Li Xinni suddenly thought of something and walked towards the room impatiently, "I have to bring those craftsmen to my father for rewards, and this shaft plow, with my father's help, should be quickly used by the people of the world!"

She ignored chatting with Bai Zhi and entered the room. She just washed her hands and without even changing her clothes, she took ten flattered craftsmen and Qu Yuuli and entered the palace without stopping.

…………

Royal Palace.

Because of the divine bird's interference in the crown prince's dethronement, the division of power in the court has undergone earth-shaking changes, and it seems that the entire court has become somewhat strange.

Especially those who were formerly part of the prince's party, now faced with the prince Li Shimin, felt a little uneasy after all.

However, they also knew that the prince at this time had already lived in harmony with King Jin and King Qi, and King Jin also told them that the current prince Li Shimin would not pursue their past affairs.

You just need to be as loyal to yourself as you were to the current prince.

But what worries them is, who knows whether this sentence is credible?

What if after the emperor's funeral and the prince succeeds to the throne, will there be a reckoning?

This is what makes them worried.

The palace is majestic and solemn, with armored guards walking between the palaces and palaces, and attendants and maids in gorgeous costumes walking through.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Princess Yong'an coming in a hurry.

Because she is Princess Yongan, her clothes are too ordinary.

She looked like a peasant woman. There was even mud on her clothes, making her look a little dirty.

It looks very inconsistent with her beautiful face.

However, no one dared to look down upon Princess Yong'an, not to mention that Princess Yong'an was deeply loved by the emperor and was even the prince's sister. Legend has it that the prince had a close relationship with this sister when he was young.

There is another point that everyone needs to think deeply about, that is, the divine bird is in Princess Yong'an's mansion.

With the protection of the divine bird, who dares to have evil thoughts towards Princess Yongan?

No!

Therefore, when they saw Princess Yong'an hurriedly entering the palace without anyone stopping her, the waiters, maids, and guardsmen all saluted quickly.

What surprised them was that although Princess Yongan looked anxious, she still patiently asked them to stand up and smiled.

It seems that Princess Yong'an is really a kind-hearted person, otherwise she would not have built a palace for women, and let the women who walked out of the palace respect her so much.

In a moment, Li Xinni led a group of people to the emperor's office, a palace in Weiyang Palace.

Outside the palace, there was a female official standing quietly. When she saw Li Xinni coming in a hurry, her face suddenly lit up and she hurriedly greeted her.

"Sister Xin Ni...Princess Yong'an!"

The female officer quickly saluted.

"Exemption."

Hearing the title of the female official, Li Xinni knew that the other party should be a woman coming out of the palace, so she didn't ask any questions and looked directly into the palace, "What is my father doing?" "Back to the princess, your majesty is dealing with political affairs. , the prince is here too.”

"Okay, I'll go in!"

Li Xinni waved her hand and immediately ordered the ten craftsmen behind her to wait here before entering the palace first.

But they saw that the ten craftsmen looked a little scared, and their eyes were even more excited.

They were just craftsmen, but they were able to enter the palace and even meet the emperor!

What an honor this is!

The nine teenagers couldn't help but look around. Seeing this, the female officer on the side kindly reminded them from time to time to keep their manners.

……

"Father!"

Li Xinni strode in, and at the same time, a clear and coquettish shout reached the ears of the emperor above.

Emperor Li Yuan was frowning at the document when he suddenly heard the cry of life. He looked up and saw that it was Li Xinni, with a smile on his face.

Putting down the document in his hand, he stood up and asked, "Xin Ni is here!"

Prince Li Shimin on the side also nodded, "Sister!"

"What have you been busy with these days? I haven't seen you come into the palace?"

Emperor Li Yuan motioned to Prince Li Shimin to read the remaining documents, and then he spoke to Li Xinni.

"I brought something good to my father!"

Li Xinni said slightly mysteriously.

"What good stuff?"

Li Yuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Li Xinni's words. Then he asked with a smile, his tone was gentle, like coaxing a child.

"Bring it up!"

Li Xinni shouted outside the hall. I'm afraid only Li Xinni dared to make loud noises in the palace.

Even the prince Li Shimin needs to be careful every time he comes, not to mention the waiters and maids.

Looking at Emperor Li Yuan again, he followed Li Xinni's shout and looked outside the palace, without paying any attention to Li Xinni's behavior.

After a moment, ten people dressed as craftsmen came in carrying something. Emperor Li Yuan quickly stepped forward to watch.

"Is this... a plow?"

Emperor Li Yuan looked at Li Xinni with a puzzled look on his face.

"That's right!"

Li Xinni explained enthusiastically, "However, this plow has been improved and is more labor-saving than the current plow!"

"Sure?"

As an emperor and the founding emperor of the country, even though Li Yuan came from a noble family, he still knew about farming. Naturally, he also knew about plows and had used plows.

Naturally, we also know that although the plow is convenient for cultivating the land, it is still too laborious.

Therefore, how could he not be surprised when he heard Li Xinni say that the plow in front of him could actually save energy.

"Sure?"

"nature!"

Emperor Li Yuan still believed in his daughter's words, so he stopped letting people do experiments and immediately said happily: "Xin Ni, you are really my Princess Yong'an!"

Always so reassuring.

"In that case, I have already guessed the purpose of your visit, Xin Ni, is to let me promote this plow, right?"

"Father is smart!"

"Naughty!"

Emperor Li Yuanxu nodded at Li Xinni, and then said sternly: "Such things that benefit the country and the people must naturally be promoted, but first, we must give it a name!"

"Already picked up!"

Li Xinni said: "Actually, Quyuanli was made by Shenniao under the guidance of her daughter. Originally, her daughter planned to name it Shenniao Li, but Shenniao said it didn't sound good and wanted to name it after her daughter's title, but she didn't dare. Taking credit, the divine bird was named Quyuanli!"

"Divine bird..."

Hearing what Li Xinni said, Emperor Li Yuan was also stunned, with a look of reverence on his face, "The merits of the divine bird are truly immeasurable to China!"

"If the divine bird says so, then do it!"

"But father, I want Shimin to promote Quyuanli..."

Li Xinni suddenly said again.

Prince Li Shimin, who was dealing with political affairs at the side and listened to the commotion here, suddenly looked startled and couldn't help but look at his sister.

"...Do you want to help him?"

Emperor Li Yuan immediately understood what was going on and said so.

"Ah."

Li Xinni nodded.

Seeing Li Xinni like this. Emperor Li Yuan had no choice but to nod, "In that case, leave it to the prince!"

As he said that, Emperor Li Yuan couldn't help but look at Li Shimin who was still in a daze behind him, and scolded: "Why don't you come over quickly and thank your sister?!"

"Thank you sister!"

Li Shimin quickly stepped forward and thanked him sincerely, his eyes filled with emotion.

After that, Emperor Li Yuan looked at Li Xinni again and asked: "Is there anything else? If not, go to the Queen to see her. Your mother misses you very much..."

"Also, your clothes..."

Emperor Li Yuan couldn't help but frown, and finally said: "Change your clothes before going, don't let your mother worry!"

"there's one more thing……"

Li Xinni suddenly became serious, looked at the ten craftsmen who were standing in the palace fearfully, and said: "Please father, please reward these craftsmen well..."

"Is that what you need to say?"

……

Seeing Li Xinni's cheerful back slowly leaving, the smile on Emperor Li Yuan's face never faded. The moment he finally turned around and saw Prince Li Shimin, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

He said with a serious face: "Your sister asked you to promote this song Yuanli. Do you understand the meaning?"

Upon hearing Emperor Li Yuan's inquiry, Prince Li Shimin nodded quickly and said, "Of course I know."

"Sister, this is helping me gain a good reputation among the people in the world, and it is also paving the way for my future..."

"You just understand!"

"I will be more respectful to you, my sister, from now on..."

"The people of the world remember..."

……

The next day.

Prince Li Shimin went to the Ministry of Works, and stood with the main officials of the Ministry of Works and took out a drawing.

And above the drawing is the Quyuan Plow.

As time passed, people in Chang'an City also learned that the prince wanted the Ministry of Industry to make plows, and that they would make plows in large quantities and then send them to all over the world as samples.

Let people all over the world use it quickly.

As the news spread, people couldn't help but wonder what was so special about this plow.
