Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 366 Gossip
"I agree with you. After the preparations are ready, I will issue an order to seal it!" Li Shimin replied half-lying with his hands in his arms.

"What are you going to do next year? Don't tell me that I will stay in the west of Liaoning." Li Shimin asked with narrowed eyes.

"Hehe! Erchen intends to stay in Liaoxi honestly, and is taking Guang'an and the children over. He hasn't been with them well in the past few years." Feng Daiwen said with an embarrassed smile.

"Hmph! It's a good thing for you to accompany Guang'an and the child. I agree, but to be honest, I don't believe it. It would be a strange thing if something didn't happen that year. Can the horse-drawn train in western Liaoning run in Chang'an?" Build a road." Li Shimin let out a cold snort from his nostrils, and said sarcastically.

"Father, this is wronging my son, what happened is a good thing." Feng Daiwen replied with an innocent face while opening his eyes.

"It's a good thing, but the progress of my palace has been so slow for two years. Chang'an City is almost completed, and the foundation of the palace was laid before the dragon's head was built." Li Shimin said displeased.

Feng Daiwen was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that the war was over, and Li Shimin thought of his palace again. As for the train, it happened to be running in Liaoxi for a few months, and there was no problem. The rest was just improvement. Building a railway for Chang'an is also a good thing.

"How can you be sloppy in building the palace for the father, of course you have to take your time, the sons and ministers will rest for a few days, and will supervise them to speed up the progress after the next year.

As for the railway train you mentioned, Erchen suggested building a road leading to Luoyang first, so that many goods to Chang'an can travel quickly, and the cost of the train road can also be maintained. What do you think? " Feng Daiwen said in consideration.

"Can't it be built in the city?" Li Shimin frowned, opened his eyes and asked.

"The train is as fast as a galloping horse. Many people have never seen it. The population in the city is too large, which will easily cause casualties and accidents. Only the road to Luoyang is built. Expenses, and even making money, other places have to wait for the court to be rich before building." Feng Daiwen explained.

"Well, I will do as you said, but the cost of this train is so high, won't it be like a big ship?" Li Shimin nodded, then shook his head and asked, for Feng Daiwen's work, the speed of spending money is quite a headache, usually dozens of Wanguan is not the same thing. Opening your mouth means talking about Wanguan.

"It's more than that. The foundation of the train road needs to be solid, and steel tracks are laid on it. The body also needs daily maintenance, and the railway also needs someone to inspect and maintain it. There is also a lot of coal." Feng Daiwen explained.

"Well! You have worked hard these past few years. Although I am rich in the world, you are not short of wealth, so there are not many rewards, but if you have any requests, you can ask me." Li Shimin sat up and looked at it carefully. Looking at Feng Daiwen's rough face, he stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder with a little emotion and said.

"Father has always trusted his sons and ministers very much, and he has also favored the Feng family a lot. It is really difficult for the whole Feng family to repay the Holy Grace. How can there be too many demands." Feng Daiwen's heart warmed, and he stood up and cupped his hands and said.

"It is easy to conquer the country, but it is difficult to stay in the country. Since the founding of the country, I have been handling government affairs, and I have a deep understanding. In the past few years, the country has been prosperous and the people are prosperous, the people are rich, and the treasury is abundant.

Whether it is military affairs, you or the Feng family, they are all thinking about the country and have no selfishness. This is very comforting, and it is really rare, especially the military, whether it is a military academy, a martial arts academy, or a fanatic. My personal guard, so you bring many soldiers and horses, I have never worried, what do you think in the future, just let go. "Li Shimin nodded, helped him sit down with both hands and said.

"It's hard for me to repay the Holy Grace, just in case, I will do my best to repay the Holy One!" Feng Daiwen said emotionally, although his original intention was to serve the people of the world and to promote the direction of history, but Li Shimin's trust really made people have to be moved.

"In the fifth year of Zhenguan compared with the fourth year of Zhenguan, the grain income has increased by [-]%, and the income of the people has increased even more. As long as it is promoted to the new grain, basically every family has surplus food, and with the promotion of fruits and vegetables, poultry farming , Fishponds and poultry breeding have made many families rich. I have visited dozens of counties near Chang’an, and I am very satisfied.” Li Shimin smiled triumphantly, and began to introduce the changes in Tang Dynasty to Feng Daiwen, which Feng Daiwen didn’t quite understand. For specific data, after all, Western Liaoning is definitely different from other places.

"Congratulations, father, this is a scene of prosperity, and next year will definitely be more prosperous." Feng Daiwen was also sincerely happy that the people were rich, and he hurriedly cupped his hands in congratulations.

"The richest one is your Zhuangzi in Wannian County, and the workshop family village established by your mother. Not only does it work, but also raises fish, lotus roots, chickens, ducks and geese, vegetables and fruits, and sells them to make them. Canned food can be said to be enviable to others. In the previous war, nearly a hundred villages donated [-] guan, which is richer than many previous businessmen." Li Shimin exclaimed in disbelief.

"This is the father and mother who favored the people and let them live a good life. Only then did the people spontaneously repay the holy grace. This is unprecedented. This is the deed of the ancient Mingjun. Since ancient times, I am afraid that only the three emperors and five emperors ruled Such grand sights come from nothing." Feng Daiwen flattered him with a smile.

"Hey! There is still a gap between me and the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. The world is in harmony. I don't know when it will be achieved." Li Shimin smiled, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood. Obviously, Feng Daiwen's flattery made his heart itch. However, he still spoke modestly.

""Book of Rites · Li Yun Pian" has a cloud: the old man does not only kiss his relatives, not only his sons. So that the old will die, the strong will be useful, the young will be good, and the widows, widows, lonely, disabled and sick will be supported. Children and ministers I think this is the world of Datong, and it will be realized in the hands of my father." Feng Daiwen thought for a while, recalled a passage, and said sincerely.

"Haha! This is also the goal I am working hard for, Aiqing and I encourage each other!" Li Shimin laughed happily.

The two were talking, talking, drunk, laughing wildly from time to time, and singing heartily!I don't know when, they all fell asleep...

Just before Li Shimin hosted the banquet, Li Ke and Li Tai went to the harem, and each brought a gift to meet his mother.

Concubine Yang had just finished her meal and was walking in the garden alone, followed by the maid from afar.

"See empress! Look who's back!" A servant with a smile on his face trotted to Concubine Yang's side, pointing respectfully at the garden gate and said.
