Chapter 180 Chang'an to congratulate
Chapter 180: Congratulations to Chang'an
The water in the well is gurgling.
It was not urgent, but it was not slow. The water head that was big on the bowl was constantly emitting a slightly turbid well water.
While hundreds of tenant farmers were cheering and celebrating each other, Li Zhide hurriedly led his yamen runners and Liu Yiu to say goodbye, almost trotting, he arrived in front of his horse, turned over and rode straight to the county town.
Developed!
Li Zhide ran excitedly. He wanted to go to the county government to retrieve the drawings. He wanted to go to Chang'an City in person. He wanted to present the water truck to the current emperor.
Riding on the horse, Li Zhide could even imagine how Li Shimin praised and praised him when he saw this water wheel. The days of his promotion were not far away.
Liu Yi chuckled and looked at the more than 100 tenant farmers who were cheering and reached out to call Li Dechen. Now that the well has been dug and the water has been poured out, it is time to cash out the rewards for them.
"Boss, are you called Xiao Laoer?" Li Dechen handed the reins of the ox to his son Li Biao who was standing next to him, and started to come to Liu Yiu.
"Well," Liu Yi nodded, took Li Dechen to Su Chen's carriage, and ordered Li Dechen: "Please ask Mr. Li to take down the things placed on the back seat of the carriage."
"Yes, boss." Li Dechen responded, bowed to Liu Yian, and then walked around the back of the carriage and opened the secret wall at the base behind the carriage.
Then, he saw a pile of money.
The bright coins, string by string, looked so charming and dazzling, which made Li Dechen lose his mind for a moment.
"Boss, is this...?" Li Dechen swallowed secretly, turned his head and asked Liu Yi.
"This is the reward for digging wells and repairing drainage pipes." Liu Yi said lightly: "A well has five hundred citrus, the first place is eight hundred and forty wells, a total of twenty citrus and three hundred citrus. A pipe has fifty and one hundred and fifty-eight citrus, a total of seven citrus and nine hundred citrus. The total annual total is twenty-eight citrus and two hundred citrus."
Liu Yi walked forward and looked at Li Dechen with a smile and said, "There are a total of 28 silos and 300 silos in this grid. The extra 100 silos were rewarded by Liu. This month, it has been hard for Mr. Li to run around."
"The boss is so ruthless," Li Dechen hurriedly bent over to bow to Liu Yiong and said, "It is the duty of our tenants to do for our boss. The old man is willing to do it, but he will never be able to say this to the boss."
Seeing Li Dechen's appearance, Liu Yi chuckled and shook his head. How could a very ordinary polite word arouse such a big reaction from the old man? He smiled and said to Li Dechen, "Okay, okay, Mr. Li understands the intention of Mr. Li. As long as Mr. Li is sincerely following Mr. Liu, Liu will definitely not let Mr. Li down. Well, now, Mr. Li will give the money to all the villagers first. After so long, even though some people don't say it, they are afraid that they will be anxious."
"Yes, boss." Li Dechen bowed to Liu Yi again, and then he carried all the money into his arms, his heart thumped. Since he became a tenant farmer, how could he have seen so much money again?
Twenty-eight stakes? This is probably the most he has ever hugged in his life.
Li Dechen put the money on the ground lightly, shouted loudly at the crowd, and immediately attracted the attention of all the tenant farmers.
"I've sent you money!" is just three words, simple, clear and effective.
No matter how Li Dechen distributed the money, Liu Yiuan walked to Su Chen and looked at the young master. He took the reins from Li Biao at some point. At this moment, he was holding the plowing cow and silly turning around the well. And his butler Su An was also looking at him dotingly.
He was still a playful child, Liu Yi shook his head and chuckled.
"Mr. Liu! Mr. Liu!" Liu Yi heard someone calling him from afar. He turned around and looked at the way he came. He saw someone waving to him in the distance.
Li Jihe, the commander of the guards beside the prince, why did this kid have the time to come here? Could it be that Li Chengqian had some problems with his legs and feet?
Liu Yiuan tidied up and down, got up to meet him.
"The villain has met sir!" When he arrived in front of him, Li Jihe bowed and bowed to Liu Yi. Seeing his expression, he was very excited.
"Haha, Ji He is polite." Liu Yi stepped forward and held Li Jihe's hands affectionately, and said with a smile: "It has been more than a month since he left Chang'an last time. I'm so lucky to meet Ji He now. I wonder what Ji He is going to Sanyuan this time?"
As he said that, Liu Yiu found an open space and sat down on the ground with his legs crossed.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince's wedding date is approaching, so he came to congratulate him in a special way and sent several gifts." Li Jihe also sat on the ground with Liu Yian, bowed his hand and said to Liu Yian, "Congratulations to Mr. Liu for his new wedding."
Uh, so giving face? Liu Yi nodded. That boy Li Chengqian was really interesting, and it was not in vain to save his life.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is worried about it. I wonder if Your Highness's foot disease has been cured now?" Liu Yi looked at Li Jihe and asked him.
"Thank you for your blessing," Li Jihe looked at Liu Yiu admiringly and said, "Seven days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince could have walked normally. If the Emperor had not been given many affairs to His Highness recently, His Highness the Crown Prince would have come to congratulate the Mr. This time, His Highness the Crown Prince would have come to congratulate him in person."
Oh? Liu Yi raised his eyebrows, and it was impossible to tell that Li Chengqian was quite respected by Li Shimin. He just happened to arrange a lot of affairs for him. Could it be that Li Chengqian would have the life to become an emperor in the future? Well, I can't say it.
However, if he becomes emperor, what will Li Zhi do in the future?
Liu Yi smiled gently, feeling that this was quite interesting.
"Mr. Liu," Su Chen had enough fun with Xue'er, so he led Su An over. Seeing Liu Yi talking to a stranger, he asked Liu Yi: "Is this...?"
"Oh, I'll introduce you to you." Liu Yi stood up, pointed at Su Chen and Li Jihe, and introduced to each other: "This is the grandson of Su Dasi Nongqing, Su Chen and Prince Su. This is the commander of the guards of the Eastern Palace, Li Ji and Lord Li."
"Young Master Su!" "Mr. Li!" The two bowed and greeted each other.
Liu Yi slapped the dust on his butt, looked at the sky, and it was almost noon, so he stood up and said to Li Jihe, Su Chen and the others: "It's not too late now, and there is nothing important in the field. Let's go home and talk. It's rare that Jihe comes today, let's have to have two drinks later."
Then Liu Yi stood up and explained to Li Dechen a few words, then drove the carriage and went home.
When they arrived home, Lao Liu and Liu He had prepared a full table of food and drinks for them. They knew that Li Jihe came from Chang'an to congratulate their eldest son for their newlyweds. Although it was a little early, they could not neglect them because of their feelings and reason, especially Li Jihe brought so many gifts.
Four meat and two vegetables, the best pear blossom sake, Lao Liu is quite generous this time.
Liu Yi looked at the wine and food on the table, nodded with satisfaction, and reached out to invite Li Jihe and Su Chen to sit in.
"Is Mr. Liu at home?" As soon as the three of them sat around the table, someone came to look for him outside the gate, but when he heard the man's voice, he was so sharp and strange. Liu Yiuan and Li Jihe looked at each other. Isn't this the voice of Xiao Dezi of Lizheng Hall? Why did he run here too?
Liu Yi hurriedly accused Su Chen and Li Jihe, stood up to greet him.
Xiao Dezi was wearing casual clothes today, and there were two ordinary carriages following him. I thought he didn't want to attract attention. When he saw Liu Yi came out of the inner room, he hurriedly bent over and bowed to Liu Yi outside the door: "I have seen Mr. Liu."
"Empress De is polite." Liu Yi bowed his hand and returned the favor, raised his head to ask Xiao Dezi, "Empress De is here to look for Mr. Liu this time, but what is the decree of the Empress?"
"Haha, Mr. Liu," Xiao Dezi bowed and said, "The Empress knows that seven days later will be the grand day of her husband. Because she is inconvenient to come to congratulate that day, she came to congratulate her in advance." Xiao Dezi bowed and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Xi."
As for his purpose, he was just like Li Jihe, and he was just congratulating his master.
Liu Yi suddenly realized in his heart, and bowed his hand to Xiao Dezi and said, "Empress, please be polite, Eunuch De, too. Eunuch De, please come in quickly and let us talk in the room."
"No, no," Xiao Dezi waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Thank you Mr. Liu for your good intentions, but the young man can't stay here for a long time. The queen is still waiting for the young man to go back and report his life."
As he said that, Xiao Dezi signaled to the two handlebars who were driving the car, and the handlebars began to carry some gifts such as cloth and brocade boxes from the carriage.
"These are all wedding gifts given by the Queen, including cloth and jewelry. Many of them are arranged according to the dowry of the princess when she got married." Xiao Dezi took out a red gift from her arms and handed it to Liu Yi, saying, "This is a list of gifts, please check it out by Mr. Liu."
