Chapter 196 Sweet Potato
Li Daozong sent people with hounds to search the Prince's Mansion.
At this moment, the two hounds kept barking and ran desperately towards the door. Li Daozong followed them quickly until they reached the back garden.
There was a corpse covered with a black scarf lying on the ground. Judging from the body shape, the body was very similar to the description of the witnesses who assassinated the Western Turkic mission.
¡°Moreover, the murderer¡¯s body is also covered in scars.
Li Daozong thought, nine times out of ten, this is the murderer.
I saw Li Zhen¡¯s bodyguard commander Zhang Chao holding a big knife in his hand and saying: "Old Prince, I just saw an assassin sneaking into the house, so I killed him."
Li Daozong frowned, wondering why he died like this?
If he were alive, he could find out the person behind the assassin. But now that he is dead, there is really no evidence.
Perhaps, there are clues that can be found from the appearance of the deceased.
Thinking of this, Li Daozong asked someone to pull off the black scarf covered by the deceased.
I saw that the deceased looked like a Caucasian from the Western Regions, with a straight nose, fair skin, and blue eyes.
"Is he from the Western Regions?" Li Daozong frowned and told Li Zhen that he wanted to take the body back to find out his true identity.
Li Zhen said graciously that there was no problem and handed the body to Li Daozong.
After Li Daozong left, Di Renjie came to see Li Zhen, and Li Zhen asked, "Has everything been arranged?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, everything has been arranged. This scapegoat is a spy from the Western Turks. I caught him and made him change into Nina's clothes.
Even if his identity is found out in the future, it will only be a matter of internal disputes within the Western Turks and has nothing to do with us, the Tang Dynasty. "
"If done well, the Western Turks will be like dumb people eating yellow lotus and unable to express their sufferings."
"And we, the Tang Dynasty, have also given an explanation to the Western Turks. More importantly, once this incident comes out, the reconciliation between the Western Turks and our Tang Dynasty can no longer proceed. The Tang Dynasty is now strong in national power and is absolutely sure to defeat the Western Turks. , there is no need to make peace with them.
The two parties have decided to make peace, which will also be beneficial to our Tang Dynasty in attacking the Western Turks in the future. My father can also explain it to me. "
After Li Zhen finished speaking, she looked at Di Renjie again. Although Di Renjie was only fifteen years old, his maturity of mind and sophistication in dealing with things were far beyond those of ordinary people.
It seems that as long as he is cultivated in the future, Di Renjie will be of great use.
Li Zhen was easily freed from responsibility and saved Nina. Li Zhen was in a good mood. Later, she met Shangguan Yi and Lu Zhaolin and asked her about the situation in the house these days.
Li Zhen specifically mentioned the sweet potato. Before leaving, Li Zhen handed the sweet potato to Lu Zhaolin to take care of.
Lu Zhaolin was very excited and took Li Zhen to the farmland opened in the prince's mansion.
I saw that the sweet potatoes in this farmland are growing happily and are lush and green.
Lu Zhaolin said: "Your Highness, these sweet potatoes were harvested last year. I used the harvested sweet potatoes as seeds and grew many more. This is only a small part. There are still many fields in the Prince's Mansion outside the city. They are growing well." It¡¯s also very gratifying, and it won¡¯t take more than a few days to harvest again.¡±
¡°A rough estimate is that we can produce at least 50,000 jins of sweet potatoes this year.¡±
Hearing what Lu Zhaolin said, Li Zhen was very happy. If 50,000 jins of sweet potatoes were harvested and used as seeds, at least hundreds of thousands jins of sweet potatoes could be produced next year.
If sweet potatoes are popularized, sweet potatoes will be able to feed most of the population of Chang'an City in less than three years.
In today¡¯s Tang Dynasty, agriculture basically depends on the weather. Generally, the harvest is good one year and the harvest bad the next.
If there are good harvests for several consecutive years, there will be disasters for several consecutive years, either floods or droughts.
Once there is a disaster, people will be displaced and hungry everywhere.
But things are different with this sweet potato. It is not afraid of drought and has low requirements for the living environment. Even in a disaster year, it will greatly reduce the burden on the people and prevent them from dying of hunger.
By then, Datang will no longer be afraid of famine.
¡°People will rebel if they don¡¯t have enough to eat. Who will rebel if they have enough to eat?
Therefore, the successful trial planting of sweet potatoes is of milestone significance to the Tang Dynasty. It can allow the people of the Tang Dynasty to live and work in peace and contentment and greatly reduce famine.
Because of this, Li Zhen was very happy to see Lu Zhaolin handle things so well.
Now Lu Zhaolin was heavily rewarded.
? Then Li Zhen?After sizing up Lu Zhaolin, he suddenly discovered that Lu Zhaolin's body was much stronger than before.
Li Zhen understood that the reason why Lu Zhaolin was so ill in the original time and space was entirely due to lack of exercise.
But during this period of time, he worked in the fields every day, exercised his body, strengthened his physique, and his illness became much better.
Li Zhen was very satisfied and gave Lu Zhaolin some Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, which are all medicinal materials for health. This made Lu Zhaolin, who had always been in poor health, very happy.
Unconsciously, a few days have passed, and the investigation of the assassination of the Western Turkic mission has been completed. Li Daozong has determined that the Western Turkic mission is the assassin, and the case has been declared solved.
In fact, Li Daozong is not stupid. He also knows that there are many inside stories about this case. No one can explain how the assassin sneaked into the prince's mansion.
But Li Daozong also knows that the truth is not important. What is important is that the prince cannot be involved in the case. What is important is that the Western Turks must be given an explanation.
Now that we have a perfect explanation, why try to find out the truth of the case?
¡° If some important figures are really involved in this case, Li Daozong will not be able to bear the consequences.
The current result should be the most satisfactory ending, which can be explained to all parties.
Li Shimin was also very happy that Li Daozong was able to solve the case in a short time.
I thought to myself that Li Daozong had been the Minister of the Ministry of Justice for many years, and his work efficiency was very high. It seemed that he should be allowed to use his remaining energy.
With the investigation of the assassination of the Western Turkic Mission, Chang'an seemed to have calmed down again, as if there had never been a wave.
However, Li Zhen keenly smelled an unusual smell.
That smells like conspiracy.
Chang'an is very peaceful on the surface now, but this is too abnormal. Could it be that Changsun Wuji is so peaceful and does not cause trouble to himself?
????????? Could it be that all the forces have acquiesced to the fait accompli and recognized their status as the crown prince?
I always feel a little weird. Chang'an is too peaceful, but in private, there seems to be an undercurrent.
Li Zhen thought, she must not be careless, otherwise, when the dark tide comes, she may be knocked over into the huge waves at any time.
Of course, something good happened during this period, that is, Li Zhen let Lu Zhao¡¯s neighbor plant a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes.
Originally, Li Zhen thought that it would be great if these sweet potatoes could yield three to five hundred thousand catties.
However, the result made Li Zhen overjoyed. These sweet potatoes actually produced more than one million kilograms.
This can be more than a million kilograms of solid grain.
Li Zhen was thinking that she should publicize this matter so that more people can grow sweet potatoes (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
