"What is he going to do to treat these refugees?" Li Shimin asked in confusion.

Although refugees have no fixed place to live, the problem of gathering refugees together is different. Tens of thousands of them are just an army.

The little eunuch replied in a low voice: "This is also quite interesting. People say that Li Zheng regards wasteland as fertile land and allows those refugees to reclaim the land."

Wei Zheng also witnessed the memorial with his own eyes that was true.

He let this boy go to the court and become an official, but he reclaimed land and farmed. He was just a fool. Li Shimin felt much more relieved when he thought of this.

For the current Tang Dynasty, food is a big problem.

How much land was there for cultivation in the Tang Dynasty and how much food was there in Guanzhong in a year.

Li Shimin knew in his heart how many people this food could support.

Food is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty's destiny, and the stability of the Tang Dynasty will also become a big problem.

Coupled with the turmoil in the past few years, the world finally came to peace, and several times encountered droughts and locust plagues.

The population has not been increased.

The court even advocated that widows be remarried.

Do your best to increase the population and do your best to increase the grain output.

With population, there are more soldiers to consolidate the border, and with food, the Tang Dynasty can face more disasters and threats from the border.

Land, population, food.

Which one is not a headache for me now?

The starting point of this stupid child Li Zheng is good. At least he is reclaiming wasteland, even if he can plant a few more acres of land, it is a good thing.

Jingyang County.

It was a bustling place, and Li Lizhi came to Jingyang County again.

Li Lizhi came to the Jingyang River and found Li Zheng, "You are here."

Hearing the sound of speaking, Li Zheng turned around and said, "His Princess has secretly left the palace again? It seems that leaving the palace is already familiar to the princess."

Knowing the way? When Li Lizhi heard this, she said that Li Zheng was a fool, but no matter how she looked at him, he didn't look like a fool.

"I didn't secretly leave the palace. My mother went to Ganye Temple to pray for her father and the people. I came here." Li Lizhi said, lifting her chin.

"Oh, go along the way?" Li Zheng said with a fishing rod: "Ganye Temple is north of Chang'an, and I am south of Chang'an, where is the way along?"

“…”

Li Lizhi took out ten cents and gave them to Li Zheng, "Give it to you!"

Seeing that Li Zheng took the money, the guy was still observing one by one, as if he was confirming the authenticity. After checking it, he carefully put it in his arms.

"Do you think I will give you fake money? In your heart, I am so unbelievable?"

"There is no need to be guarded against others," Li Zheng looked at the fishing line leisurely, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

From here you can see a large area of ​​land that has been turned over and many people are growing things.

Looking at this scene, Li Lizhi said, "Li Zheng, are you Jingyang County still in the county?"

"Why isn't the county?"

Li Lizhi cleared her throat and said seriously: "I heard from my father that there are now a population of 3.6 million households in the Tang Dynasty, and there are 500 to 1,000 households in each county. Tens of thousands of households are counties, so they are no longer counties."

Seeing Li Zheng silent, Li Lizhi lifted her chin like a show-off, as if she was expecting Li Zheng’s praise. How could I even know this, am I awesome?

After being silent for a long time, Li Zheng still didn't say anything.

Li Lizhi stamped her feet and said, "Have you listened to me again?"

Li Zheng held the fishing rod expressionlessly: "No."

Sure enough, no...

Li Li gritted her teeth. This guy dared to ignore this princess.

"Is there anything else for the princess?" Li Zheng asked sideways.

"Are you driving me away?" Li Lizhi blushed and was very angry.

"Your Highness the Princess is at will." Li Zheng didn't want to pay attention to Li Lizhi, the little girl.

"Do you like food very much?" Li Li asked.

"I like it. Who doesn't like this thing? I don't feel panic when I have food at home, but it's hard to come by." Li Zheng sighed: "It's noon that the day when hoeing the grains, sweat drips into the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard, and this grain is planted by the people with sweat."

"It's noon to hoe the wheat, and sweat drips into the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard to do." Li Lizhi repeated several times.

"Good poem." Li Lizhi sat next to Li Zheng, "Is there any?"

"Why should Your Highness the Princess think that poetry is something that you want?" Li Zheng said.

"No?" Li Lizhi looked lonely.

Li Zheng whispered: "I sold that poem to His Highness the Princess just now, and I have a total of money."

"Can you still buy poetry?" Li Lizhi felt that her worldview seemed to be collapsed.

"Yes, as long as Your Highness the Princess pays, this poem belongs to Your Highness the Princess. I will pretend that I have never read this poem." Li Zheng said: "If Your Highness the Princess can pay more, maybe I will suddenly understand it. I can read a few more poems."

Li Lizhi took out a silver cake as big as a palm, very proudly, "How many songs are worth?"

"Uh..." Li Zheng looked at the silver cake with a little caught off guard. He knew that the princess would not be short of money, but he didn't expect that this girl would be such a big silver cake with just one move.

He quickly put the silver cake in his arms, and Li Zheng said, "Your Highness, please listen."

"The grass on the Lili Land withered and flourished every year. The wildfire cannot be burned, and the spring breeze will grow again."

Li Lizhi hurriedly asked the guard to bring ink and record the poems.

"Sleeping in spring is not dawn, birds are heard everywhere, wind and rain come at night, how many flowers fall."

"Look up at the bright moon, and look down on my hometown..."

"The morning rain in Weicheng is light dust, and the green willows in the guest house are fresh..."

"You won't see..."

...

After more than ten poems came out in a row, Li Lizhi copied all of them. Seeing Li Zheng's eyes were shocked, they were shocked.

Li Zheng cleared his throat and said, "Your Highness Princess, don't look at me like this, I'm sorry."

Li Lizhi looked at the poem in her hand and looked at Li Zheng again, and looked up at the sky.

"Is there any?" Li Lizhi asked with her eyes blinking.

Li Zheng also smiled and blinked, "Does Your Highness the Princess still have it?"

"Well..." Li Lizhi hesitated for a while and said, "I brought these this time."

There are more than a dozen poems that earn such a large piece of silver cake.

Is this a business opportunity? Li Zheng thought to himself that maybe someone else would not be fooled except for Li Lizhi.

"I'll bring more next time." Li Lizhi grinned.

I have no doubt about guilt. Is it not good to fool a little girl who is only ten years old?

After thinking about this, Li Zheng picked up the marinated pheasant on the side, wrapped it with lotus leaves and pasted it with mud to make a beggar chicken.

When the beggar chicken was cooked in the charcoal fire, Li Zheng opened the sealing mud and carefully tore the lotus leaves open.

Smelling the fragrance, Li Lizhi then remembered that she hadn't had lunch yet.

Li Zheng pulled a chicken leg and ate it. Seeing Li Lizhi looking at it, he said, "Does Your Highness the Princess want to eat it?"
