The prince is here.

The abbot of Longji Temple came hurriedly with several monks.

"It turned out that His Highness came in person. How could he be so lucky to Longji Temple? Your Highness, please."

The abbot smiled and explained the buildings in the temple to Li Hong.

"...This tree was planted by the abbot more than a hundred years ago, and now it covers the shade."

Li Hong glanced at Dashu and nodded slightly.

"I want to burn a few incense sticks to pray for Ah Niang and her unborn children."

The abbot smiled even more and more joyously, "It is well known that Your Highness is pure filial piety, please come with me."

When he arrived at the hall, Li Hong burned incense and worshiped Buddha. When he came out later, he stood under the tree to enjoy the cool air.

The abbot and others were talking around, and there were a group of strong monks next to them...

Li Hong looked at all this and saw some inexplicable dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Later, the abbot turned around and said to everyone: "Longji Temple is famous, and even the royal family will come to worship Buddha and pray for blessings. From tomorrow, this matter will be spread, but it cannot be said directly, it must be obscure... understandable?"

A monk laughed and said, "I'll just say that this Buddha was worshipped by someone in the palace. If it's not anyone, it won't be evil in the palace. But when those people hear it... they promise to have another 50% more incense."

"Well, there are also fields. Last time, the Ma Shanxin said he wanted to give us a different property. There were small bridges and flowing water inside, many monuments, many fruit trees, and more than a thousand acres of good land outside..."

The abbot's face became more and more rosy, "You must hold on to that, but you must not ask, you must..."

Everyone said in unison, "Tip!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The laughter rose to the sky with the incense, like flowers and cooking oil in the fire.

Li Hong returned on the same road. When he passed by the land, the man waved when he saw him, "Come now, I'll come soon."

Li Hong waved his hand, "You all stay away."

Jiang Feng was uneasy, "But your highness's safety..."

"This person is a farmer. It's enough to leave Zeng Xianglin and two eunuchs. You can all disperse."

Li Hong had a cold face and was actually quite majestic.

After everyone dispersed, the man also came over.

"sit."

Li Hong smiled very nicely and sat casually on the ridge of the field.

After a while of nonsense, he asked, "How much land does this Longji Temple have?"

The man blurted out, "It's more than thirty hectares!"

That is more than three thousand acres.

"We don't know some other fields." The man's regret of being unable to satisfy his gossip made Zeng Xianglin feel that this person is suitable for entering the palace.

Li Hong took a deep breath, "Then why are you going to farm here?"

"No tax payment." The man smiled and said, "We entered Longji Temple and entered Fuwowan. The Buddha blessed us not to serve and not pay taxes. This day is much better than those farmers."

"Did you come in voluntarily?" Li Hong asked with concern.

"That's right, my family had more than 100 acres of land, and all of them were given to Longji Temple, but the land was still mine. I just handed over the grain I should pay to Longji Temple. But there were few other mediocre things."

The man was quite proud.

Mediocrity means serving and paying for cloth.

In other words, after taking his own land into Longji Temple, the family no longer paid mediocre transfers, but paid grain to Longji Temple every year.

Going further: they transformed from a Tang people to a person from Longji Temple... This made a strange phenomenon appear. The people of the Tang Dynasty were clearly distinguished from the people of the temple, serving the temple while serving the country.

Li Hong asked for a long time, but later he got up and asked someone to touch more than ten dollars for the man.

"No, no!"

The man talked a lot and was very satisfied today, so he wished he could give Li Hong money, so he was reluctant to charge him.

Zeng Xianglin couldn't help but say, "Actually, some places are more suitable for you."

The man asked, "Where?"

"There are too many talks." Zeng Xianglin didn't dare to talk about it in the palace, but he thought that a friend who talked too much was really good.

Then he returned to the palace.

Li Hong looked a little silent.

He was in a daze after dinner.

Wang Xia was puzzled and asked Zeng Xianglin, "What's wrong with Your Highness?"

Zeng Xianglin shook his head, "We don't know."

The joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness of noble people is different from that of ordinary people. For example, if ordinary people think happy, noble people will be angry and angry. If ordinary people think sad, noble people will laugh out loud.

Don’t guess the thoughts of noble people, you can’t understand them after guessing.

At night, Li Hong tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

He got up quietly, lit the candle by himself, and searched in the bookcase.

After a while, he found a letter he wanted and sat under the candlestick and watched.

"There are many minerals deep in the earth, and the same is true in the center of the earth..."

"The energy brought by the movement of the earth's crust needs to be vented. When one crust hits another crust, an earthquake occurred. The earth was trembling and torn apart, and countless houses collapsed. Humans could only be helpless... Before the divine power of nature, humans had no choice..."

"The stars in the sky do not represent any noble person, they are the nonsense of human beings who are arrogant and arrogant. Each star is either big or small, and is much bigger than the earth under our feet. It may be desolate, and you may see mountains, rivers and rivers..."

"We respect the heaven and earth and are grateful for everything that gives us life and food. Although human beings are small, we are constantly making progress..."

Wang Xia heard some noise outside, so she got up and walked to the door to listen.

"Many years ago, our ancestors were worshipping the forest fires caused by lightning and worshipping them like gods, thinking that this was a God's punishment, but later they learned to drill wood to make fire..."

"Many years ago, the language of our ancestors was simple, and they could not express many people and things, and there was no text to record everything. So Cangjie created characters, and gods and ghosts were angry... Many years ago, our ancestors were sick and could only wait for death, so Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and found a way to heal for mankind..."

"Many years ago, ancestors were afraid of meteors. They saw a white tiger and regarded it as a god. They were frightened or shocked when they saw anything they had never seen before...."

"The ancestors found fire, medicine, language and words. They lived in a place surrounded by animals and were still strong and unyielding, and still encouraged each other to move forward in difficulties and difficulties. As descendants, we wore neat clothes, spoke elegant language, wrote intoxicating words, and built countless houses..."

Wang Xia was so shocked that an eunuch came over. She raised her index finger to her lips and whispered softly.

The prince's still tender but firm voice came from inside.

"The ancestors worked hard to create brilliant civilization. Why did we not move forward when we were enjoying the fruits of our lives? The ancestors never learned from them. They had no words or precise language, so they created them, and they still created them."

The sound inside paused.

"So, why can't we create a civilization that will make future generations more amazed?"

"There will be thorns on the way, there will be countless slander and reproaches on the way, and this way will lead to... glory!"

"If you have the people in your heart, you will not hesitate; if you have the world in your heart, you will be fearless... Young man, hold your chest up, even if the future is in the sea of ​​swords and fire, you will turn them into smooth roads one by one!"

Wang Xia heard the sound of gasping and looked up. The eunuch clenched his fists with his hands, his face turned red, and his eyes were firm... as if the next moment he could run from the palace to the distant end of the sky.

But I seem... very excited too!

Wang Xia felt a slight trembling all over. If her mortal enemies in the palace dared to show up, she swears that she could beat them out!

Li Hong inside looked up at the candlelight, his eyes full of determination.

On the second day, Li Hong went to the front to observe politics.

The emperor and the queen, the prince could only stand by the side as a little transparent person.

"...There was no conquest this year. In the past year, the conquest of Liaodong mobilized many civilians to transport food, grass and supplies. In addition, the army was chewing outside, and the rewards after the triumphant victory... were rewarded in the second half of the year. Otherwise, if there was a change, the court would only do nothing."

Master Xu looked up, "It's gratifying that the weather is sunny these days, and seeds are sowing everywhere. Next year will definitely be a bumper year..."

This is an excellent sign, Li Zhi smiled and nodded, "Next year should be a good harvest year."

Wu Mei said lightly: "Look at the Ministry of Revenue, there is a difference. If so, save more in the palace."

Since the emperor's eyes are not good, the empress has performed the emperor's duties on behalf of the emperor, and the several political responses have made the prime ministers secretly applaud.

Now that the emperor and the empress are in the court together, people outside call the Two Saints to be in the court. Everyone was surprised for a while at first, but later they became accustomed to it.

Li Zhi nodded, "The palace has a lot of population, and it consumes a lot every year..."

Wu Mei glanced at him and raised her neck slightly.

This shrew!

Li Zhi complained in his heart: This shrewd woman holds the business shares given to her by Jia Ping'an and earns a lot of money every year. A few days ago, she said that even if there is no money or food in the palace, she can support me and the children... she is extremely domineering! She can be called the most shrewd woman in ancient and modern times!

"Yes." Xu Jun is the Shizhong, and now he is responsible for a lot of things in the province. Li Jie worked hard and made great contributions. In addition, he was old, and Li Zhi was worried that he would die in the duty room of the Shangshu Province, so he gave him more preferential treatment.

Li Yifu smiled and said, "Your Majesty and the Queen are in love with the world, but there are certain things in the world. If there is not enough food, you must not let the palace lack food. What do you think?"
To be continued...
