The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 462 Demonstration of the Royal Family

In May of the lunar calendar, the Guanzhong Plain is golden.It's time for wind and wheat waves again.

"Chi~chi~swipe~"

In a wheat field not far from Chang'an City, a young man with a headband wrapped in a scarf and his trousers pulled up, although he was already sweating profusely and breathing heavily, he still deftly moved dozens of wheat stalks with another A single wheat stalk is finely tied to form a standard bundle.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have been working continuously for more than an hour, and the sun is very poisonous at the moment, please take a break for a while, come down and drink a bowl of iced sour plum soup."

"Huh~~~" Liu Chen got up, and wiped his forehead with a hand full of grass clippings casually: "Alright! Let's take a rest. Well, Aunt Zhang, Second Sister Li, Uncle Wang... all stop for a while , come here and drink a bowl of soup to relieve the heat."

Following Liu Chen's shout, seven or eight farmers appeared one after another in the fields that had been shaking all the time, but no one could be seen.They didn't feel the panic when they saw His Majesty the first time, they gathered together with normal expressions, and followed Liu Chen into the pergola built next to the field ridge.

"Ah~~" Liu Chen groaned comfortably after taking a mouthful of sour plum soup soaked in ice water, and then casually put his two muddy feet on the delicate soft bed: "How about it, Uncle Wang, is my harvesting speed getting faster and faster?"

"Hehe, Your Majesty is wise. Yesterday, His Majesty only harvested a small half of the land in one hour. Today, in one and a half hours, he has already harvested more than one cent. Sure enough, the capable can do anything."

"That's it, that's it, we all said, I didn't expect that His Majesty is also good at farm work. Such a person, even if he is an ordinary young man, is very popular among the big girls in our village."

"Presumptuous!" The aunts next to them burst out with their inherent attributes, and they got carried away with complacency.And the old man Wang who answered just now still remembers that the one in front of him is the emperor.He quickly stood up and scolded that stupid village woman.

After being scolded by the neighbor's old man, Zhang's surname suddenly came to her senses: the person in front of her is the emperor, and she actually wanted to introduce a girlfriend to the emperor? !
"It's okay, it's okay." Liu Chen waved his hand casually: "Aunt Zhang, don't cry. I have been working with you for several days. Do you think I am the kind of person who can't take jokes? Come, come, drink Soup, after a while the soup will heat up again, and it won’t taste good when you drink it.”

From May of last year to May of this year.The all-out war between Han and Jin has lasted for a year.

Due to the large number of able-bodied people, they either joined the army or worked as civilians to carry soldiers and supplies.Therefore, Ji Han is now extremely short of labor across the country.

The spring plowing was a bit better. Thanks to the comprehensive promotion of Quyuanli and the abundance of animal power, women and old people in Yongliang and Yizhou all showed great strength, which basically ensured that the area of ​​spring plowing was larger than that in the first year of Guiyuan. There was no noticeable shrinkage before.

But when it comes to autumn harvest, the role of animal power is not so great.Whether wheat, rice, or potatoes, it all requires manpower to harvest crop by crop.

Therefore, from the beginning of May of this year, the areas where Jihan planted winter wheat entered the harvest period one after another. Emperor Liu Chen personally took the lead, and all government officials at all levels in Jihan went to the fields to help the people everywhere harvest wheat.

"My son kowtowed to my father."

Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, a childish voice sounded. It was Liu Chen's eldest son, Liu Cheng, who was only eight years old. come over.

"Yo! Ah Kuan did a good job today, he cut so much."

"Hey." The child who was praised by his father quickly had a heartfelt smile on his face.But after a while, his face collapsed: "There are more sons than yesterday, but they are still far behind sister."

"Huh, Liu Akuan, what are you talking about? You are so much younger than me, and you still expect to be cut like me?" With a voice that sounded a bit sturdy in the air, a man with a good figure, although A girl whose face was covered in dust and grass, but who still couldn't hide her delicate features, walked over.It is Liu Chen's eldest daughter, Guan Yi's eldest son Guan Fu's future wife, Ji Han's new generation eldest princess Liu Wan'er.

"Well, Wan'er, you are three years older than Ah Kuan." He stretched out his other hand and gently wiped Liu Wan'er's face: "Why are you pouting? Why are you unhappy?"

"Father, Tan Nu (Guan Fu) is only 13 years old, and he is about to go to the battlefield."

"Oh, what should I do? He is the son of Da Sima, so it is only natural that he will go to the battlefield at this time."

"But, he's only 13 years old! And this guy is a waste. For more than four years, he has never won against Sanlang Beigong. How can such a small body play a role in the battlefield?"

"Hahahaha~~ Wan'er, Sanlang Beigong is extremely talented, and it's normal that he can't beat him. In the past two years in Wuzhangyuan Academy, Tan Nu's physical skills have risen from the bottom to the middle and lower. Considering his Most of his classmates are generally much older than him, and it is not easy to do this."

"Hmph, most people can't beat it. Oh, father, you are the emperor. Let Tannu not go to Bingzhou, but let him play with me in Chang'an."

"It's unreasonable. The state of Jin is stubborn and stubbornly resisting in Bingzhou and Jizhou. The country has to conscript twice, and it has clearly stipulated that all fourth-year students of Wuzhangyuan College join the army. Tannu is a student of this level, so there can be no exceptions. If There are exceptions to everything, so what rules are there?"

Seeing his daughter turning her head aside and ignoring him, Liu Chen had no choice but to turn around and say to Aunt Zhang who was in shock, "Aunt Zhang, your son has joined the army again. Are you so willing?"

"Hi! Your Majesty, the youngest of my family was knocked unconscious by a stone in Tongguan last year, and he went home to recuperate for a few months. Now he is like a good person, why can't he join the army again? Among other things, our pavilion, nearby In the few pavilions, except for the only son in the family, all the men with good feet and hands have gone to join the army. He is a good man in his twenties, and he is not afraid of others poking his back when he stays in the pavilion? He is shameless, I want shame Woolen cloth!"

The village woman surnamed Zhang said it easily, but Liu Chen knew it: the third son of the Zhang family was knocked unconscious by a stone on the Tongguan city wall for several days, and often had headaches after waking up.It hasn't been too long since he came back to recuperate. After catching up with Ji Han's second conscription, he signed up again: such a veteran who has experienced life and death is of course the favorite of recruiters at all levels, and he was selected again very smoothly.

"Your Majesty, gentlemen from the city come to preach every ten days in the pavilion. The grassroots also know that the court is very difficult now, but as long as we get through it, everything will be fine!"

"Hey, that's true, but, I don't know how long it will take?"

"If it doesn't work in one year, it's two years, if it doesn't work in two years, it's three years...Your Majesty, the gentleman in the city made it very clear that only the people of our big man have their own fields, and only the people of our big man will have their own fields after the disaster. This method of relief, only the people of our big man, after joining the army, the family members have various preferential treatment. The old woman has lived for more than 50 years, and she used to be called Wei here, and later called Jin, but she didn’t live comfortably in the big man! Don’t say it before Your Majesty has come to help us reap the wheat, except when collecting taxes, no matter how difficult it is, even a small official will not see it! So, based on this, we must support Your Majesty to fight to the end!"
