Chapter 126 What imperial edict do you want me to see?



The study of Grand Secretary Pang Hao.

Li Chuang went in and immediately bowed, saying, "Li Chuang greets the Grand Secretary."

"Is the rebel leader here?"

"Your Excellency's words are truly shameful. Even if I, Li Chuang, possess extraordinary abilities, I am nothing more than a dog under Your Excellency's command."

"Your Excellency, my loyalty to you is as clear as the sun and moon and as enduring as mountains and rivers."

Pang Hao picked up a teacup, gently lifted the lid, blew away the tea leaves, and then took a sip.

Pang Hao accidentally dropped the teacup in his hand, shattering it on the ground.

Li Chuang quickly crawled over: "Your Excellency, be careful, are you alright?"

Li Chuang knelt on the ground and cleaned up the broken teacup.

The maidservant next to him wanted to step forward to help Li Chuang tidy up, but Pang Hao stopped her.

A full cup of tea's time passed.

Li Chuang then cleaned up the broken pieces of the teacup.

"Rise, please take a seat."

Li Chuang remained kneeling respectfully: "Where Your Excellency is, I cannot sit but must kneel."

Pang Hao nodded: "Today, the chief eunuch Lü Fang came to see me. The entire escort team that was taking Princess Xue'er to marry the Xiongnu has been killed by the Khitan cavalry."

"Lu Fang said that His Majesty's intention is for me to send someone to escort Princess Xue'er to continue her journey to the Xiongnu."

“I plan to send my son, Pang De, to escort him.” Pang Hao glanced at Li Chuang, who was kneeling on the ground. “You will select 5,000 men to go with Pang De.”

Li Chuang was somewhat puzzled: "Your Excellency, there is something I don't understand, and I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Speak up about anything that should or shouldn't be said, and speak about any issues you have."

"Your Excellency, since Princess Xue'er is going to the Xiongnu for a marriage alliance, it is not in a good position for Your Excellency and us. Why did Your Excellency still ask the young Grand Secretary to escort Princess Xue'er to the Xiongnu?"

Pang Hao laughed loudly after hearing this: "I know best what kind of people the Huns are. Pang De will defile Princess Xue'er on the way."

When the Xiongnu Chanyu sees that Princess Xue'er is not a virgin, he will surely be furious.

When the time comes, I, Pang De, will surely be able to persuade the Xiongnu to attack the Xia Dynasty with my silver tongue.

At that time, we can reap the benefits from the situation on our left.

Li Chuang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant."

“You and Zhang Shicheng are my right and left arms.” Pang Hao stood up, walked to Li Chuang, and patted him on the shoulder. “When I ascend to the throne, you and Zhang Shicheng will be my founding heroes.”

As long as you do this well.

"In the future, when your wives and children are granted titles and honors, bringing glory to your family, you will be indispensable."

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Excellency." Li Chuang respectfully kowtowed three times to Pang Hao.

"Your Excellency, I have brought you 100,000 taels of gold this time."

"Send it to the Junior Grand Secretary and have him count and put it into storage." After Pang Hao finished speaking, he sat down and continued to look down at the book in his hands.

Li Chuang knelt on the ground and backed away.

...

Flying Fox City.

Jiang Tian emptied his system repository.

All kinds of fruits and vegetables.

All kinds of grains.

The variety of grains is dazzling.

These grains and vegetables can all be grown.

Qin Hongyu and Fairy Miaomiao were extremely busy.

Jiang Tian has opened up a 5,000-mu (approximately 333 hectares) plot of land outside the city.

In addition, he also exchanged for a river.

All 5,000 mu of land are used to grow fruits and vegetables.

These fruits and vegetables are irrigated with well water and river water, and can be harvested every month.

With this well water and river water.

The local people dug waterways to bring all the well water and river water into their land.

There is a bug in the system's river.

That is, although this river is only ten kilometers long, it never dries up.

This means that the river water will rise continuously.

Watching the river flow continuously towards their land.

The people were overjoyed and extremely excited.

The grain and seeds that Jiang Tian gave them, irrigated by the river, not only yielded a harvest every month, but also a very bountiful one.

The yield of rice can reach 1,000 kilograms per mu.

The yield of wheat can reach 800 kilograms per mu.

The yield of sweet potatoes per mu can reach 3,000 kilograms.

The yield of watermelons can reach 10,000 jin per mu, and the yield of grapes can reach more than 3,000 jin per mu.

There was a wide variety of vegetables and fruits available, including leafy greens, radishes, cucumbers, and tomatoes.

Longcheng and its three surrounding cities have become a "Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall".

From a distance, it looks lush and green.

The local people were overjoyed; they had been on the verge of death, but Jiang Tian had saved them.

Although these people have to pay 80% of their income from farming to Jiang Tian as taxes.

But the people were still very excited.

Because they can harvest 12 times a year from these lands, the surplus grain is not only enough to feed them well, but also enough to fill their stomachs.

These people had surplus grain, which they used to feed chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep.

These people live a vibrant and bustling life.

In the hearts of these people, Jiang Tian was like a god.

Every household has a portrait of Jiang Tian hanging on their walls.

These people would kneel before Jiang Tian's portrait and pray twice a day, morning and evening.

Every village erected a longevity monument for Jiang Tian.

A temple was built for Jiang Tian in every village.

County government office.

I've been lying in a rocking chair these past two days.

Two maids massaged his shoulders and rubbed his legs.

Two maids were feeding him watermelon and grapes.

There were seven or eight maids serving him.

These young maids, however, were thoroughly enjoying themselves.

"My lord, how do these grapes taste?" The little maid, Hongxing, peeled off the skin of a Sunshine Rose grape and gently placed it in Jiang Tian's mouth.

Jiang Tian took a small bite, and his mouth was filled with sweetness.

"My fruit is of course incredibly sweet, no need to ask."

"Your shoulder massage technique is too weak, it's too strong and too weak."

"Also, the force you use to massage your legs is not good enough; it's too weak and not satisfying at all."

Upon hearing this, the maid responsible for massaging the legs slowly increased the pressure on her hands.

"My lord, I was just afraid of hurting your legs."

Jiang Tian put his arm around the little maid's slender waist: "I'm not that fragile, use a little force."

Luo Xiaohu jogged in.

"The red-clad eunuch who came a month ago has returned."

"What is that eunuch doing here?" Jiang Tian waved his hand, dismissing the dozen or so maids.

A young eunuch dressed in blue walked in.

Holding a whisk, the man shouted in a shrill voice as soon as he entered the courtyard: "Imperial decree has arrived! Jiang Tian, ​​go out of Flying Fox City to receive the decree!"

Jiang Tian lay on the rocking chair, eating grapes and spitting out the grape skins.

He's living a very comfortable life now, and the imperial edict of the Great Xia Dynasty has no binding force on him whatsoever.

"What imperial edict? Do I need to leave the city to receive it?"
