Chapter 151: Rumors in the market, let the righteousness be made again

The seeds of cotton are easier to deal with, but the problem is deseed textile. In fact, textiles are also easy to deal with. Although the fibers are different, it is still OK to improve them on the textile truck of hemp and silk. Besides, Li Wei did not ask for any industrial revolution. He didn't understand Huang Daopo's textile machine, but he still remembered the bow of cotton. He also planted cotton, well, that's all!

Especially for seed removal, there are definitely no related machines in the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty, even the most primitive machines. It depends on whether there are Lingnan and Gaochang and other places. If not, you even have to go to Dashi to take a look. Of course, it is not necessary to go to Dashi and ask Dashi merchants.

While I was about to handle it, I suddenly heard many rumors in the market.

How to investigate the case is not clear, but it is so evident that He Guangzhen visited Xujiazhuang for five times, Guan Fuxing rushed 800 miles in a row, etc., and it was almost like a five-rat who made trouble in Tokyo. These rumors are not scary, and there are any dynasty, and it is often possible that they are not good at all. The main reason is that Li Wei heard the most terrifying rumor. Some people are very good at association, so they said that the queen took over the power, confused the emperor, saw the prince wise, and ordered Xu Jingzong to assassinate the crown prince. The real murderer behind the scenes was Wu Zetian!

There are also enemies, such as Ming Chongyan and Xu Yanbo, who are also in Luoyang, and there is no judgment, but Li Wei thought that in this limelight, they would not be as brave as Xu Jingzong. It is estimated that Ming Chongyan would be very scared when he stayed in Shenzhou. As for Xu Yanbo, when his grandfather died, he could only be in panic all day long. Or all the ministers who were dissatisfied with Wu Zetian were old-fashioned and would never do this. Therefore, it may be that there were spontaneous discussions among the people. After all, this was an era of men. Seeing Wu Zetian assisting Li Zhi in handling government affairs, some ordinary people were unhappy, especially some great scholars, who were very disgusted.

When Xu Jingzong fell, his mother undoubtedly lost an elbow. In addition to the disaster, Helan Minzhi and other relatives were not good at it. Even Yang Sijian, the "in-law" who caused a lot of trouble to her, especially the thing Xu Jingzong did, and Xu Jingzong was her favorite minister. In addition to this rumor...

Li Wei's face turned pale as soon as he heard this.

The common people may have good intentions, but this kind of kind intention put him on fire again.

Not only did he, Bier was not very sensible, and her face turned pale. The eunuch Jin said, "It's abominable for these ordinary people to talk nonsense."

Damn it may not be abominable. The people are also kind-hearted and sympathetic to themselves. After thinking about it, don’t think about it yourself and give your mother another righteousness.

He called Wei Yuanzhong and the others and told him that since he was going to give it to his mother, he would not disclose anything to the public. Including the farmers in the farm, of course, they would probably not say anything when they were scared.

"This cotton..." Zhu Jingze said hesitantly: "Is there any righteousness?"

Why, it's not as good as bamboo paper?

"Let's wait and see," Li Wei replied. It's a pity that he doesn't know about textiles, but the cotton yield is far higher than mulberry and hemp. Not to mention anything else, with cotton coats, when they wear it warms in winter, Liaodong and the north are no longer a bitter and cold place. It saves the fight for decades, sacrifices countless soldiers, and the Marine and Silla people occupy it. And because it is cold in winter, there is no need to cover, many people froze to death. Especially last year, the heavy snow was heavy. For example, after the grandfather of Xiang fought Liaodong, he came back late and froze to death, so Li Shimin cried loudly. What if there was a cotton coat?

Besides, I will live a happier life. But no matter what, he still has to endure this winter.

Zhu Jingze still didn't believe it. However, the prince's order was not to disclose it to the outside world.

Then I asked to see my mother, but I didn't see you!

Most of them also heard this rumor, otherwise he would have cut off his "early lotus root". Although his mother was angry, she would not be missing. But everyone was speechless and could not be blocked. In fact, in the past few months in the Tang Dynasty, I heard from the people that my mother did not have a high evaluation of her, so Li Wei estimated that her mother would become so cruel in the future, which was somewhat related to this. Relatives were not good for her, ministers were not good for her, royal families were disgusted by the people, and the people did not like each other, but in fact they did a lot of things... It is conceivable that the unpleasant in her heart.

This time I gave me credit, and Li Wei was not afraid. My mother was missing, so I asked someone to call my mother's eunuch Li Shoucheng.

"I've seen Your Highness," Li Shoucheng arrived and gave a gift, but his face was not very kind.

Li Wei was not in a hurry and ordered the eunuch to bring five gold ingots, about eighty taels, a very thick gift, and said, "Eunuch Li, you have done your best for your mother. I am very grateful to you. Please accept these slim gifts with a smile."

"Crown Prince, what's this meant?" Li Shoucheng suddenly said in annoyance: "Although I am an eunuch, I will definitely not do anything to betray my power. Please respect yourself."

"But I have something to do, I must meet my mother immediately."

"Your Highness, it's not my servant to say you. Maybe your Highness is an unintentional act, maybe your Highness is filial, but have you ever considered the two priests of what you do?" As the old eunuch who is closest to Wu Zetian, he also holds some important official positions in the inner palace. He doesn't need to be very polite to talk to Li Wei.

"Eunuch Li, Gu admires your loyalty very much. But it is wrong for you to blame this. Gu did that wrong? Yes, he fought back against Helan Minzhi and Xu Jingzong. However, they were ministers, but they wanted Gu's life everywhere. Gu was the prince after all, and his father and mother were held in the back. Gu had no complaints, but he allowed some villains to slaughter him? Did Gu do not have to escape in Zhongnan Mountain, and let Xu Jingzong's subordinates shoot arrows to death, so that the son of man's filial piety would be fulfilled?"

Li Shoucheng is too far behind his verbal skills.

It took me a long time to remember and said, "But you will eventually report some major events to the two emperors, and you will not... a sudden blow."

Report? Li Wei smiled and didn't say anything more. I don't know how to arrange this report. After a lot of calculations of interests, I might be able to warn Xu Jingzong, and then turn big things into small things, just like Ming Chongyan, and continue to stay away from justice in Shenzhou.

He paused and said, "If you don't mention this matter, I will call you to come. There is one thing, just like bamboo paper, handed over to the queen. This is a righteousness, and it is used as a compensation for the mother and queen. If you don't tell me, I have to hand it over to the court."

"Why?" Li Shoucheng was very loyal to Wu Zetian, which was also the person Wang Cainian repeatedly told him to pay attention to. So he used a lot of money to win over, but he still didn't. As soon as he heard this, he immediately stopped this unpleasant topic and asked.

Li Wei took out a few feet of cloth and said, "It's it, but it's not just these."

After estimating the yield in my mind, one acre of cotton field can harvest 200 kilograms of lint and 300 kilograms of lint in later generations. There are various factors such as seeds and fertilizers. I said in a low-key manner: "The planting method is appropriate, and one acre of titanium can obtain more than 200 kilograms of pure fabric."

That is, the 100 kilograms of later generations nodded. This is also very considerable. How many raw silk can you get by planting mulberry trees per acre of land? Or how many kilograms can you get by planting hemp? This is not calculated by calculating, but by calculating.

"really?"

"I am not afraid to do anything in the way my mother is doing." Of course, this must be planted strictly according to the distance of the plant, and it must be nutritious to cultivate seedlings, and the branches must be removed, and scientific planting methods can be used. When planting in Gaochang and Lingnan, it is not popular, and most of it is that the yield is not high. It is possible that a mulberry can only be harvested for 20 to 30 kilograms of lint, which is not very profitable. In addition, the problem of deseeding and textiles is very troublesome. If a mulberry can be harvested for 100 to 200 kilograms of lint, it will be popularized in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no need to wait until the Ming Dynasty. It is possible that the cotton yield in the Ming Dynasty was also very low, but the textile industry was developed and the cost was reduced, and it was gradually replaced by mulberry and hemp status.

As he said that Li Wei would tell you how to plant it, as well as all kinds of knowledgeable and questions. Li Shoucheng hurriedly said, "Let me say it slowly, let me write it down with my notes."

After finishing the work, Li Shoucheng said, "Where does Your Highness come from this method?"

There is definitely no "Qimin Yaoshu" in "Qimin Yaoshu", Li Wei said nonsense: "Cotton comes from overseas, which is from a very far-reaching country overseas. Because it is far away, the technology has not been spread to the Central Plains, and even the big food has not been obtained. I only heard some of the machines, but I didn't know how to get there. I even had to ask my mother to send people to Gaochang and Lingnan to see if there are any related machines."

"Oh, there are so many news that the public has heard. Only His Highness is concerned about state affairs and write it down."

“…”

"But your highness has this filial piety, but he makes me happier than these gold ingots, even more than gold and silver mountains."

"Emperor Li's loyalty makes me respectful." It's really "respectful".

A few days later, Li Shoucheng came over again and said, "The Human Queen has been sent out. Your Highness, you can't make a mistake."

"I said it, please rest assured."

"Well, does anyone know about this?"

"There are only a few, but I let them not mention this matter to the outside world." After understanding, my mother wanted to "eat alone".

After roughly seeing Li Wei's thoughts, Li Shoucheng said: "Your Highness, it's not because the queen wants to do this. You also see the situation of the queen, and it's probably because you have pushed it. How much has the queen done for this court and this country? Do you know? Over the years, everyone's attitude towards the queen has been really unfair."

Everyone is unfair to their mother, but the mother cannot be unfair to her son, so she dare not say it. She said, "Eunuch Li, who is not as capable as her mother and queen. But as the father said, there are some evil knowledge, and this cotton is one of them. Maybe she can fight for more righteousness for her mother and queen in the future."

The rumors became increasingly tense, so I had to immediately reassure my mother and show goodwill to her.

Alas, who should I blame? It seems that Li Shoucheng is right. Could it be that he really blames himself?

"It will be a good thing if you have this heart."

"Can you let the orphan meet your mother?" The old eunuch said, which is more effective than saying ten words by himself. It is best to meet each other, talk to each other in person, act coquettishly, not shameless, what's the point of acting coquettishly to your mother? The effect is better.

"Oh, Your Highness, although you are determined, the Queen is so angry these days that she is so angry that she should not disturb her. Besides, the Queen also sent someone to ask. This kind of cotton does have, but the yield is far less than what you said. However, the planting method is not much the same as what you said. I don't know where you heard it. As long as it works and you have the intention, the Queen will eventually like it."

This not only requires eating alone, but also "not showing off the rabbit or eagle". But we have to wait until the result, at least until next autumn... Could it be that we will continue to be a stalemate?

In fact, the reason why Li Shoucheng came to the East Palace patiently listened to him that he also thought that the prince had no malicious intentions and protected himself because he always thought that the prince was not this malicious intention to this mother, but "another malicious intention". He wanted to say it, but there was no way to start. He paused and said, "Besides, Your Highness, it's not that I'm talking about you. You'll be cold and hot for a while, and the queen can't see through you."
