Chapter 94
Chapter 92 The eleventh world
To say that the most famous person in the capital in recent years is not the prince who finally stood in the court, not the son of Zhilan Yushu, the official of Chengguo, or the personable champion in the imperial examination last year, but the third son of the Emperor Yao family .
In the beginning, when mirrors and glass appeared, no one knew the role played by the Yao family, but as soon as these two items appeared, they were sought after, especially because they were not expensive, so whether it was a high-ranking official or a distinguished person. Common people can buy it, and some merchants built a small house with glass for their daughter, which caused a trend.
Not only in the capital, they soon spread to Luo, the emperor gave prescriptions to many prefectures, so that the glass can be used in the whole territory as soon as possible. It also alarmed businessmen in other countries, but the shops selling glass are basically royal, and foreign countries can only buy them at high prices, but even so, many businessmen are willing to spend money to buy these scarce items.
The household officials who received such feedback brightened their eyes and began to play with the emperor about the export of glass and mirrors. It can be said that these two have earned a lot of silver for the Luo State Treasury, and the emperor was so happy that he found another reason to give it. The Yao family has given out a lot of rewards.
The second thing that the Yao family’s son had in Beijing was that he made an object called soap with the prince in the Ministry of Industry. Almost in the first month, he completely replaced Yizi in the capital. Of course, the Yao family’s family The same thing was soon launched in the water town where I was, followed by soap, and some rouge gouache.
I have to say that no matter in which era, women’s money is best earned. Even the emperor was silent for a long time when he received the financial report. He probably did not expect that he would fill the treasury like this one day. Of course, the main reason is that the country of Luo is still peaceful and prosperous, and there is no disaster year. Otherwise, I am afraid that no one would be in the mood to buy rouge gouache.
Now Yao Liang can be said to be the sweet pastry of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households. From the mirror, glass, soap and soap to the cement that the Ministry of Industry is currently studying, everything is a good thing that can change life. I want to leave him in the Yamen every day; every time the Ministry of Household looks at the treasury’s attitude towards Yao Liang No matter how good the third is, and similarly, after Yao Liang taught them another simpler method of accounting, the household officials looked at him with love.
In addition, both the emperor and the prince showed obvious care for Yao Liang. Although the Yao family was only a businessman, it still received many posts and became the most popular figure in the capital.
However, Yao Liang did not stay in the capital this year. Instead, he took the people and guards to travel far away. When Wei Zihe asked him the reason, his reply was very his style. He was very happy to tell the prince that he was yesterday. The storyteller heard in the restaurant talked that there is a kind of food in the world, the roots can be used, it is convenient to plant, the time is short and the yield is not low, so he decided to go out and look for this food, by the way, look at other places in Luo State.
Wei Zihe looked at each other swearingly, shook his head and chuckled. After all, he was still an underachiever and couldn’t stay in one place all the time. According to his understanding, the other party might do things on a whim because of the storyteller’s jokes, such as mirrors. Another example is the current cement, as well as the previous hot pot and desserts.
He didn’t hold back, but he told Yao Liang to remember to come back early. Wei Zihe married a wife a year ago. The crown princess has now found out that he is two months pregnant. Wei Zi and Yao Liang remember to come back to drink full moon wine, joking. Even if the person does not come back, the courtesy is fine.
Later, Wei Zihe gave Yao Liang a practice wine. Not many people were present. Wei Zifeng was also there. As before, the atmosphere between the two people was still subtle. Wei Zihe worked hard for several years. When we met, I was still stiff, and I was helpless to talk about him. One was a well-behaved brother, and the other was a talented but good-tempered friend. I didn’t know why they bothered to look at each other.
After Yao Liang left the capital, he first went back to Yao’s house and spent a month with the original family at home before leaving. Now there is less time to meet, and the Yao family can’t see the difference between him and the original. After all, he is at this age. Teenagers are always the same day by day.
After waiting for a few months, the princess had been holding the emperor’s eldest grandson for a hundred days, and Yao Liang, who had only sent gifts at the full moon, came to visit.
After going out for so long, Yao Liang didn’t tan at all for some reason. Although he grew taller, he was still very thin. Wei Zihe was worried that the wind would blow up a bit and he would be blown away by the wind. Now in his twenties, the prince who is no longer so young in the courtroom, patted him on the shoulder worriedly, and felt the bones under his palm: “Did you not eat well? Why did you lose so much? ”
His gaze turned to Yao Liang’s hand again. Since picking up the dumpling, he has been inseparable from the pet. The ugly dumpling has grown a little bit, still the size of a palm, but covered with black and white fluff. With two black bean-like eyes, it looks much cute.
Wei Zihe reached out and touched the head of the dumpling, and in exchange for a milky response, he looked even more worried: “What’s the matter, not only did you lose weight, but even the small dumplings didn’t look like they grew up.”
Yao Liang looked at the increasingly motherly prince and couldn’t laugh or cry. After a few words of greeting, he immediately cut to the point. The gift he brought this time was not something else, but a kind of food called potatoes.
The guard who had been ignored for a long time was finally able to put down the plant he was holding. Yao Liang introduced potatoes to the prince. This is the food he found from neighboring countries. A relatively closed village cannot grow other things. The staple food is potatoes. He went on to talk about the various advantages of potatoes. Wei Zihe’s eyes brightened as he listened to it. If it were not for his reason, he would almost ignore the time and want to drag Yao Liang into the palace. He never thought that the plants in the storyteller population were actually. It really existed, but it was also found by Yao Liang.
After the most exciting moment, after verifying what Yao Liang said about the way of eating, Wei Zihe had already figured out how to tell the emperor about this matter, but in the end he still felt that Yao Liang should directly offer the potatoes. To the emperor, Yao Liang, who was not interested in the court and did not know the situation of the court, analyzed why he did this. After finally persuading Yao Liang, he was filled with a sense of accomplishment and sent him back to the Yao mansion.
When Wei Zihe discussed Yao Liang’s innocence with the princess, but he was easily exploited and still needed protection, everyone did not know that Yao Liang was very satisfied with his reaction.
After two years of observation in the capital, plus the various news received from the capital this year outside, Yao Liang has determined that in this generation of princes, no one except the prince is suitable. The second prince was slightly narrow-minded and could not tolerate others. Even if the disguise was good, the third prince could not see his ambition, but he was easily trapped by the opinions of people around him. If he were to be on the throne, he would be controlled by his relatives.
It seems that there is only the current prince, and a little bit of the prince, and then, it is enough to ensure that he does not die in the hunting ground.
After the potatoes were offered, the monarch of Luo Kingdom was delighted as expected. He did not award the reward first. Instead, like Wei Zihe, he tried the food made from potatoes, and then opened up a piece of land in the palace for planting potatoes. There are also dedicated training records, and then see the effect.
While the potatoes were still growing, Qiu Shou arrived, and it was this hunt that killed Wei Zihe.
In the original trajectory record, only an accidental summary of Wei Zihe’s death was made lightly. The only thing I knew was that he chased a white fox and ran into the woods. All other emphasis was placed on Wei Zifeng, especially when he became the throne. The later atrocities are described in more detail. If you want to ensure that Wei Zihe can be saved, he must go to Qiu Shou and be inseparable from the Prince.
Originally, as the son of Yao Liang’s businessman, he was not qualified to appear in the autumn hunting field, but he received an invitation from Wei Zihe. On the hunting day, Yao Liang did not bring the dumplings, and the panda cub turned his back angrily. , I don’t plan to pay attention to him. If there is a pot of milk with honey, it’s still very good.
Of course, his younger brother, Wei Zifeng, is naturally indispensable around the prince. The four princes smiled at Yao Liang, with a warm smile, but Yao Liang felt a chill suddenly rushed to his back, the alarm in his mind sounded, always feeling that something was not right.
He took a deep look at Wei Zifeng, then returned him with the same smile, and was ready to never leave.
After arriving at the hunting grounds and before the hunting began, Yao Liang’s wish was not easily fulfilled. As the prince, Wei Zihe spoke to the monarchs of the Luo Kingdom for a while, then surrounded by the princes, and then the senior officials and them. The children in the family have three floors inside and outside three floors, and Yao Liang can be regarded as seeing the popularity of adult princes in court.
And beside him, there are many people talking to him, especially the officials from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry, all smiling kindly, preparing to kidnap him before going to work, it is best to stay in the yamen for a while, you can say, During this time, apart from Wei Zihe, they were the ones who missed Yao Liang the most.
In the end, it was the emperor who rescued him from the crowd. After having potatoes, Yao Liang was completely in the emperor’s sight. No matter which monarch, he could not resist the temptation to increase grain income. Imagine if the potatoes really did as in the introduction. Magically, under vigorous promotion, Luo’s food will reach an unprecedented number. Maybe, he can also use this to make a strong mark in history.
After the hunt began, Yao Liang finally found a chance to act with the prince. Wei Zi and other young people around him were his contacts. Yao Liang also saw a lot of familiar faces in it, all of them in the past two years. If you have known it, you can get along well.
The princes were all separated and did not know where they were. The prince walked into the forest with a group of people and guards. Several people talked and laughed, but after a while, the prince of Chengguo was instigated by another person and said After the game, the few people were young and vigorous, and they all agreed.
Only Yao Liang and Wei Zihe did not participate. The former looked at his appearance and did not force it, while the latter was begged to be a referee. As a result, the group was also dispersed and soon disappeared from the others. . Yao Liang followed Wei Zihe closely, believing that he would chase him if he saw the prey. He was chatting the rest of the time, talking to the prince about what he saw after going out during this period of time.
At the same time, his senses kept watching the surrounding environment, not letting go of any wind and grass, until a white fox appeared in their field of vision.
This is a very beautiful fox. Its pure white fur is soft and fluffy. When he saw someone, his eyes blinked ignorantly. It can be seen that this is definitely a fox raised by someone, but there are many prey on the hunting grounds of autumn hunters. It was kept in a cage and was released at this time, so it did not arouse suspicion from anyone other than Yao Liang.
Seeing the white fox turned and got into the bushes, Wei Zi and the horse drove up to catch up, and stopped the guard’s bow hand: “Don’t kill it, I will take it back to make a gift for the princess.”
A group of people chased the fox deeper and deeper in the forest, and other sounds that could be heard occasionally gradually disappeared. When Yao Liang became more and more vigilant, he finally saw the cause of the death of the prince.
A pack of wolves with green eyes gleaming silently surrounded them.
