Chapter forty-eight

On the seventh day of the third lunar month of the eleventh year of Zhenguan, it is auspicious day for the zodiac. It is advisable to travel, break the ground, and sow seeds.

In the Luoyang Palace Imperial Garden Nursery, a sowing ceremony is being held.

The ceremony was not grand, there was no grand music and dance performance, the procedure was simple, and there were very few participants. Only Li Er, Fang Xuanling and Li Xiaogong arrived, Cheng Zhijie seemed to be still sobering at home, Zhang Liang was responsible for the defense of Luoyang City, and Hou Junji temporarily returned to Chenzhou.

Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang also came to support the show, mainly because they wanted to watch the fun and watch the strange things. Since the last time the horseshoe, Li Zhi has become much more interested in these novel things.

Xie Yi felt very distressed when sowing seeds, which depends on the almanac. Fortunately, he did not miss the farming time like the Sanxiangu in Mr. Zhao Shuli's novels in later generations because he believed that "not suitable for planting" on this day.

The emperor, two ministers, and two children of the Tian family stood in the corridor and watched, without any intention of farming the fields and being an example for the world. Only Xie Yi was the only one who worked.

Alas! It’s not easy to be a free farmer. First of all, you have to work hard. Who says we are working hard!

Xie Yi sighed lightly, looked at the "seed eyes" on the potato, and carefully cut them into several pieces. In this way, it can be fully utilized. Each "seed eyes" will sprout, as many as possible.

The corn was planted in the soil together. In order to ensure the emergence rate, Xie Yi also specially asked some anti-mosquito medicines in the imperial physician office to replace insecticide pesticides.

Chili peppers and tomatoes need to be cultivated first and then transplanted. It can be seen that Li Shimin attaches less importance to these two categories. In his eyes, how can vegetables and vegetables be more important than food?

Xie Yi sneered in his heart, don’t worry, give Li Eryi a bowl of tomato and egg noodles, add two spoons of oil to splash spicy food, and see what he says after eating it.

In addition to nursery planting, Li Er also ordered people to bring a few large jars and put them in fertile soil to fill them with large potted plants, which is called for easy care.

But Xie Yi guessed that Li Er probably had the intention of showing off again. It was inconvenient to take people to the palace to visit, so he just moved two tanks of corn and potatoes, and didn’t he blind the eyes of a group of people?

In Li Shimin's eyes, corn and potatoes may not be food at all, but rather means and bargaining chips for politics and imperial power.

Forget it, let him do what he had expected!

Seeing Xie Yi planting the seeds carefully, Li Shimin's eyes were full of expectations, Dun Dun reminded: "Xie Yi, be sure to check frequently and take care of them carefully to ensure that the good seeds germinate and bear fruit, and not to lose any mistakes."

Xie Yi immediately said: "Abide by Your Majesty's will, I will take care of you with all my heart. However, we must ensure that no one else can disturb or even destroy the crop during the growth of the crop."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "That's natural. I have sent 60 imperial guards to guard this place. Idle people are not allowed to enter. If the crops are endangered, they will be taken down immediately."

"Father, can I come here to see it on weekdays?" Li Zhi immediately asked for instructions when he heard this. For some time, he had been staring at Xie Yi curiously fiddling with the seeds, as if he was very interested.

"Of course, it's a good thing that my prince is concerned about farming and mulberry planting and curious about new things."

"Father, can you come?" Princess Jinyang also participated immediately.

Li Shimin hesitated a little and said, "This...is OK, but you must be obedient and not touch it randomly, which will endanger every tree and every tree here, do you know?"

Xie Yi couldn't help but feel black. Once the prince's daughter was involved, Li Shimin changed from a wise emperor to a spoiled father who was unprincipled.

It is naturally best for Li Zhi to come for voluntarily, but Xie Yi is unlucky. This spring, summer and autumn, this nursery is a good time and place to cultivate a good relationship with Li Zhi.

As for Yizi, it is normal for Mengmeng's brother to control Li Zhi, and... Xie Yi also found that early in the morning, the little princess's eyes always glanced at the corridor in the distance, which seemed to have great attraction.

Xie Yi looked back and found that his sister Xiaoman was hiding behind the pillar. Looking at the situation, the two little loli seemed to have met.

That's it, that's good!

...

After sowing, Li Er became a manager and never asked about it again.

A group of big-headed soldiers stood outside the nursery like clay sculptures and wood sculptures, expressionless, while Xie Yi was wandering among the fields, waiting for the seeds to sprout.

Waiting is a very boring thing, especially waiting alone is really boring.

Xie Yi really wanted someone to talk to him, but since that day, his relationship with his sister-in-law Du has become distant. Apart from the communication necessary for daily life, there is almost no dialogue.

Xie Yi was very depressed. He took the initiative to greet him, find topics, tell jokes, and responded with a pretty face with expressionless expression, without any turbulence in his emotions, and without a warm response.

My sister-in-law seemed to be deliberately hiding from herself!

Why? Those Lao Shizi's crowning rhetoric could not convince Xie Yi at all. He never believed it at all. His sister-in-law's transformation was too sudden and too stiff.

If something goes wrong, it will be a monster. The stronger the reaction, the more it means there is something wrong.

Xie Yi couldn't help but secretly blamed himself for being careless and sleeping with the kang for so long, but he didn't notice the strangeness of the person beside him. He could now conclude that his sister-in-law had something to hide from him, maybe there was something hidden in her.

He wanted to ask, but she certainly couldn't say it, so she didn't ask.

...

Fortunately, Li Zhi and Yizi often came to visit, and the children's innocent and happy laughter came, which made Xie Yi's lonely heart feel a little soothed.

Li Zhi started asking questions, and he gradually spoke more and talked more and talked more with acquaintances. Silence in front of strangers is a manifestation of introverts.

"Xie County man, here... the potato seedlings are broken..."

Hearing Li Zhi's surprise shout, Xie Yi could even optimistically believe that in His Highness King Jin's heart, he already belonged to the category of acquaintances.

Surprisingly, the attributes of Princess Jinyang's brother controlled were slightly weakened, and it was no longer so sticky to Li Zhi because she found a new playmate.

When she saw the shuttlecock, sandbag, and bamboo dragonflies on Xiaoman's hand, the princess of the noble heavenly princess suddenly looked like a poor child who had never seen the world. Her eyes were wide open. She was curious first, then envious, and then "fatal temptation".

The two little loli with their eyes soon got together!

Xie Yi was happy to see this. After all, Xiaoman was very lonely in his childhood. Although he and his sister-in-law loved him, they could not replace his role as a friend. Having a playmate was a good thing for her, and even more good for Princess Jinyang. If you think about it a little more, it might be more profound.

As long as the sister is happy, Li Zhi is naturally happy. With the acquiescence and promotion of the two elder brothers, Yizi and Xiaoman quickly became the best friends of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin realized the latter later, and it was not until half a month later that he realized that his baby daughter had a new friend, Xie Yi's young girl Xie Xiaoman.

However, Li Shimin knew it a little special. An eunuch secretly complained to him, saying that the young girl in Huaiyang County was rude and disrespectful to the princess. She called the princess' nickname, snatched toys with the princess, and even bullied the princess.

All were suing the wrong person, suing a four-year-old girl.

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, right? My daughter was very happy recently. He could clearly feel that there was a trace of being bullied? Last 2nd lunar month in the palace, Wei Zi was frightened by Lanling's joke and cried so sadly. Where did he see a tear?

Besides, although Xie Yi is sometimes arrogant, he is generally a polite person. The Xie family is also a scholarly family, so it is not impossible to teach girls, right?

His Majesty Li Er's first reaction to this special report was to falsely accuse him, which was not trustworthy. He didn't want to care about the big sesame matters at first, but he still took the time to take a look at the daughter.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked into the nursery gate, I heard a tender voice shouting: "Shizi, I'll throw it away..."

Immediately afterwards, His Majesty Li Er watched a heavy small cloth bag and smashed towards his daughter like a flying slap.

He called the princess' nickname directly, and was disrespectful to the princess, and all the charges for bullying the princess seemed to be valid.

The most annoying thing is that Xie Yi, an adult brother, stood aside, smiling, and even had no intention of stopping his sister from doing absurd behavior.

You/Sister bullies my daughter, but you don’t care? His Majesty, the wise and powerful, suddenly became furious...

PS: I have been in the countryside these two days, and it is inconvenient to access the Internet. Most of the updated chapters are released regularly in advance and I don’t have time to manage the book review area. Last night, I found a large number of advertisements. I tried a lot of effort to get a wireless network card to delete advertisements online, but there may be a possibility of a comeback.

I would like to remind all book friends that you should never believe in those advertisements and be careful not to be deceived.
Chapter completed!
