Xuan Shen nodded and took two more sips of tea.
"It's true, Auntie. I've told you before, the emperor, who was originally the Prince of Rong of Youzhou, has no interest in the throne."
His brothers fought fiercely, both openly and secretly, until the old emperor finally passed the throne to him.
In the first year he ascended to the throne, several kings of fiefdoms were eager to make a move, especially the King of Gold.
Later, after more than half a year of preparation, that year, Xue Bao, Han Mingjiang, and I split into two groups and finally removed this huge cancer.
In recent years, thanks to the sweet potatoes and potatoes contributed by my aunt, the people of Le Dynasty, who had experienced three years of natural disasters, have been able to have food to eat.
When people have enough to eat, they can settle down and live in peace.
Only then did people's livelihoods gradually recover, and with improved livelihoods, the imperial court was able to win the hearts of the people.
Therefore, the court is now stable, the people live in peace, and the country is becoming prosperous.
The emperor no longer wanted to be emperor; he wanted to be a retired emperor, travel around, and experience the life of ordinary people.
Li Lanzhen was still unhappy. This Peach Blossom Spring was hers, and now she had put two giant Buddha statues here.
Moreover, when the emperor and empress arrive here, several hundred imperial guards will surely follow.
This does not include the guards who are secretly protecting them.
With so many eyes watching, what secrets could Peach Blossom Spring possibly hold?
Every word and action is exposed to their scrutiny!
Under their watchful eyes, I can't do anything I want!
Li Lanzhen said angrily.
"With such a vast world, don't they have anywhere they want to go? Why do they have to come to this Peach Blossom Spring!"
After saying that, she asked in a low voice, "Xuanshen, can I refuse? Can we let them go to Youzhou City?"
Xuan Shen chuckled as he looked at the furious Li Lanzhen.
“Auntie, you can’t refuse. Think about it from the other side: the Emperor Emeritus lives here, and that’s your strong support.”
You can do whatever you want, and no one will dare to say anything, nor will anyone bother you anymore.
Even if you were to cultivate sweet potatoes and potatoes into something extraordinary, no one would dare to question whether you were.
Li Lanzhen thought about it and realized she couldn't fight city hall, so she decided to let it go; everything has two sides.
Now, in Taohuayuan Grand Canyon, it can be said that the granaries are full and the cattle and sheep are numerous.
Next, I want to pursue two major projects: crude salt purification and sugar production.
With two Buddha statues here, I have a powerful backer.
He picked up the tea and slowly took two sips.
"Fine, I know. Let them come if they want."
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and said urgently to Xuan Shen.
"However, Xuan Shen, I don't know anything else about what happens next. As for where you live, how you live, and how you build it, that's all your business. Don't tell me."
Xuan Shen laughed heartily, and only spoke after he had finished laughing.
"Yes, Aunt Lanzhen knows nothing. I didn't tell you any of this."
After finishing his business, Xuan Shen stood up to take his leave.
"Auntie, take care. I'm going back to the training camp."
After the New Year, people started coming here to select sites and transport blue bricks and tiles.
However, don't worry, it won't affect normal production and daily life here.
"Okay, I understand. Do you need to go there to get some medicinal herbs?"
Xuan Shen, who had already reached the door, stopped in her tracks.
He turned around and chuckled.
"If it's convenient for you, Auntie, I'll go and take a look."
Li Lanzhen grabbed Xuan Shen's sleeve and sent him into the space.
Li Lanzhen didn't enter the space this time; she went to her room to pack up the things she brought back from the southwest.
She took out a lot of fabric, preparing to make some clothes for Shuiwang and Niuniu.
Little did she know, Xuan Shen was dumbfounded after entering the space this time.
Because before this, whether he came in by himself or with Li Lanzhen.
All he could see were farmlands and that small patch of medicinal herbs.
But now, standing in the space, he saw behind this vast expanse of farmland, mountains upon mountains, and at the foot of the mountains, herds of horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks, and geese.
The lake was full of lotus flowers, and various kinds of trees grew around the medicinal herb field.
To the right of where I was standing, there was a small courtyard.
He thought for a moment, then walked closer to the courtyard gate.
The gate to the courtyard was not closed. He did not go in, but stood outside the gate and saw a big tree in the courtyard with a well under the tree.
The courtyard has three main rooms, an east wing, and a west wing, all neatly arranged.
After standing there for a while, he turned around and walked towards the medicinal herb field.
As I walked and looked around, I discovered a patch of plants in the farmland that I had never seen before.
He was certain that he had come in several times and had never seen this kind of grain or vegetable.
Curiosity led him to the sugarcane field, where he looked at the seedlings that reached his knees, their leaves long and slender.
He didn't recognize them either, so he stopped studying them and casually picked two red tomatoes and a cucumber.
We walked and ate our way to the medicinal herb field, passing by a pasture at the foot of the mountain.
He was surprised to see more than 30 horses leisurely grazing on the green lawn.
These horses have glossy coats, and they have large frames and strong hooves.
I couldn't help but shout, "What a fine horse!"
They continued to the medicinal herb field, and upon arrival, quickly cleaned up all the harvestable herbs.
Without rest, Xuan Shen immediately began processing medicinal herbs and making pills.
More than half an hour later, Li Lanzhen entered the space and saw Xuan Shen standing outside the courtyard gate.
"Auntie, you've arrived."
Xuan Shen pointed to the small courtyard.
"Auntie, there's a small courtyard here that I've never seen before every time I've come here."
Li Lanzhen paused for a moment, then looked down and thought, "It doesn't matter if the Scrophularia saw it. Let it be."
What else can you see?
Xuan Shen pointed to the distant mountains, lakes, and farms, as well as chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses.
He kept showing it to Li Lanzhen.
Then I said, "Auntie, those horses are so well-bred, they're all fine steeds!"
Li Lanzhen watched as his gaze burned as he chased the galloping horse.
"If you want one, go pick one you like, and I'll give it to you."
"Okay, Auntie! Thank you. I'll go see which horse I'm destined to ride. Hahaha."
Watching Xuan Shen, who was as happy as a child, using his light-footed skills to chase after the horse, Li Lanzhen unconsciously looked at him with loving tenderness.
Before long, Xuan Shen rode a chestnut horse at full gallop.
The chestnut horse has four snow-white hooves and a wisp of white hair on its forehead.
Xuan Shen has chosen a fine horse!
"Auntie, look, it came right up to me as soon as I walked over and nudged my arm with its big head. Hahaha."
Seeing Xuan Shen stroking the chestnut horse with delight, Li Lanzhen was also happy.
"I'm happy as long as you like it."
You need to think carefully about how to explain yourself after you get out.
"Okay, Auntie."
"I'll go out first, and then I'll release you and the chestnut horse once we're outside."
