Chapter 203 Festival

Leaving, there is still a bit of unfinishedness, and he said to himself: “Guests can reach Liangzhou as long as they follow the avenue over there. There are guesthouses every few miles along the road, which is very convenient for traveling from afar. You don’t know, this one, it was made by Duan Wang with cement, it’s flat and wide, it’s convenient, and even the speed of the carriage is much faster.”

Looking along his fingers, he saw a white jade belt-like road in the distance extending straight to the west.

The emperor thanked him and had even more expectations for this trip to Liangzhou.

Now the horse farm in Liangzhou has formed a scale, Ming Yu has introduced a lot of good horses from the Western Regions, and has improved Dayan’s horses to several levels. Liangzhou’s horses were even supplied to the army in the north, and Dayan was no longer short of horses like a few years ago.

Along the way, the emperor Weifu saw a lot of new things, and many people planted corn, watermelon and other crops in the fields by the roadside. The further west you go, the more vibrant it becomes, and people’s faces are filled with smiles from the inside out.

The people are very hospitable, welcoming them into their homes warmly, and bringing out water to greet them.

The young man went out after eating in a hurry, “Mom and Dad, I went to work. I have something to do at home when I get back. Don’t twist your waist like last time.”

“Go, go! Don’t be late!” The old father urged with a smile on his face. This has to be said several times a day.

Turning his head, he smiled and said to the emperor: “The guest laughed, this kid is frizzy.”

The emperor shook his head and said with a smile, “Old man is very lucky.”

“Hey! It’s all thanks to Duan Wang. Now, I feel like I’m dreaming every day in this situation.”

While chatting about family affairs, someone shouted outside the house, “Uncle Chen, is Uncle Chen at home?”

Uncle Chen hurriedly went out, “Hey! It’s the shopkeeper Zhao of the Ma’s family business? Why are you free today?”

The emperor also stood by the door, quietly observing.

Shopkeeper Zhao jumped out of the carriage, and his chubby face shook a few times, “Are the watermelons in this land about to ripen? I’ll come here ahead of time to sign the acquisition agreement. I’ll pay the deposit first, and then let it go when it’s ripe. People have come to collect.”

Uncle Chen raised his eyebrows with joy, rubbed his hands together and smiled, “Your Ma family business is getting earlier every year, didn’t you wait for half a month to come here last year?”

“Hey! It’s not good that many people are staring at this piece? If you don’t start earlier, I’m afraid you won’t even see a single seed. You see that the market has not changed much this year, if you believe my old Zhao’s words , let’s still pay according to last year’s market price?”

Old Uncle Chen waved his hand, “What do you say if you believe it or not, we have been working together for a few years, but you still can’t trust you, Lao Zhao?”

The two laughed loudly, and then followed the skilled procedure, signed the contract, and pressed the finger. In the end, Uncle Chen happily got a deposit, even if the watermelon in his melon field had a new home.

Shopkeeper Zhao hurried to the next one again, and the emperor, who had seen the end from the beginning, said strangely, “It will take a month or two for the watermelon to mature, right? Was it sold so early?”

Uncle Chen nodded and smiled: “No, we are responsible for farming, and we don’t have to worry about not being able to sell what we planted. There are people outside who are vying for it.”

“How cunning the merchants are, so you are not afraid of being deceived?” the emperor asked.

Old Uncle Chen didn’t care, “Don’t be afraid, our lord has regulations, and we will never allow bullying to dominate the market. There are also many rules to protect the people, and no one dares to violate the rules.”

The emperor looked at the towering Liangcheng not far away, but there was a hint of urgency in his heart.

Ming Yu had a headache, and unconsciously pressed his hand on his temples, trying to relieve it. He received the prince, oh! No, it should be a secret letter from Emperor Ruiqing, saying that the emperor’s father came to Liangzhou in a micro-clothing and asked him to send someone to guard him.

When he received the letter, he didn’t dare to pick up people with great fanfare, so he could only send guards to greet him. How could he know that he sent several waves of guards, but he didn’t find the emperor’s father. Why didn’t this make him anxious? The emperor’s father came over in a slight manner, and he didn’t know if there would be any danger or if he would encounter any problems.

“As long as you get to Liangzhou, there should be no danger.” Xie Yixiu walked behind him, pressed his fingers lightly on his temple, and massaged for him, “Don’t worry too much.”

Nowadays, living conditions in Liangzhou are prosperous. It can be said that there is no danger if the door is not closed at night and the road is not picked up.

“Having said that, but there is no news, I can’t help but worry.”

Xie Yixiu’s expression softened, “The Emperor Taishang came to Liangzhou for the first time, and he is new to some affairs. It is possible to see more and go around. If you are really worried, how about I personally take the team out to find out?”

Ming Yu thought for a while, and before he made a decision, he heard someone reporting that someone outside was looking for the prince.

The two looked at each other, and Ming Yu hurriedly asked about the person who came. Before anyone could finish speaking, he hurriedly got up and went out.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the palace, Ming Yu almost held his forehead and stood at the gate with an angry look on his face. Who else would be the father of the emperor who was blowing his beard and staring at him? Just who **** him off?

However, this is not the time to think about this, Ming Yu smiled and greeted him and saluted, “Father! Why didn’t you say hello when you came, how can I go to greet you?”

Everyone at the door was shocked. Unexpectedly, this old man was really the emperor. They actually stopped the Emperor Taishang outside the gate of the mansion. It was over, over, and their lives were at risk. So everyone knelt down and pleaded guilty.

The emperor didn’t even look at them, and without saying anything, he went straight into the palace angrily.

Ming Yu quickly followed, “Father, what are you? Who made you angry?”

The emperor then stopped and scolded: “You bastard, what kind of **** regulations have you made? Ah? It’s just a cool city, and what kind of livestock management fee is required. Horses defecate anywhere in the city, and they have to be fined? Then people must be fined for spitting? How can there be such a bizarre reason for fines in this world? As a prince, don’t you care about it? What is the difference between the people below charging random fees and extortionate taxes?”

It turned out that when they entered the city, someone stopped them, saying that they had to pay for livestock management. What kind of **** was collecting money, and I started to argue with people at the time, but the other party didn’t force them and let them into the city. However, not long after entering the city, they were caught and fined for defecation on horses.

It’s all right now, no one cares about your identity, no matter what you say, you won’t compromise, even the people watching the fun even said that they were wrong. No way, in the end had to pay a fine. The more he thought about it, the more suffocated he became, the phlegm surged up, and he spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground. The group of people hadn’t gone far, and they were directly caught again. This time, the fine was doubled.

Later, the city defense team was disturbed. They thought of letting things go, so they pinched their noses and recognized it. But he couldn’t think about it at all. The people of Liangzhou said how the old fourteen was kind and loving, and how to govern in a proper way. But now it’s obviously a very unreasonable charge, what’s the difference between it and extortionate taxes, tyranny is fiercer than a tiger, and the old fourteen will not fail to understand this truth. It is not easy for his son to manage a territory. It must be the people below who follow the yin and the yin, and nothing can help this evil spirit.

The emperor said it in a breath of anger, Ming Yu’s face was a little embarrassed, “Father…Father, I know this matter, and I was asked to do this.”

“…” The emperor looked in disbelief, pointing at Ming Yu, speechless.

Ming Yu smiled and said, “Father, don’t worry, first listen to the son’s reasoning! After the father heard it, he felt dissatisfied, and the son admitted the punishment.”

The emperor flicked his sleeves and snorted as he agreed.

“What does the royal father think of the environment in Liangcheng? How does it compare to the capital in terms of cleanliness?” Ming Yu asked.

The emperor thought for a while, compared in his heart, and nodded, “That’s better.” He had to admit that the concrete streets in Liangcheng, the flowers, trees and green grass beside the road, really made people look comfortable.

“The environment is clean and tidy, and it is not easy for germs to occur, so people living in the environment are not easy to get sick. There are many customers and merchants coming and going in Liangcheng, and there are many cars, horses, cattle, sheep and livestock. People can control themselves, but livestock can’t control themselves. Ah, then only the owner can take care of it. If there are no rules and regulations, how can we maintain such a clean and tidy environment?”

“Actually, as long as you pay the money for livestock management, there will be someone to guide you how to manage it, and you will avoid fines.” Ming Yu secretly glanced at the emperor, who is to blame for your own unwillingness to pay the money?

“It’s just that people are really willing to accept this kind of fine?” He couldn’t believe it. Some people were willing to collect money indiscriminately.

Ming Yu smiled and said, “Are those people wearing a red ribbon? These are actually organized and supervised by the people in the city. They have always lived in Liangcheng. Comparing the former Liangcheng with the current Liangcheng, which one is better? Bad, their choice actually speaks for itself.”

“As for those who come to Liangcheng for the first time from other places, a booklet will be issued when they enter the city, with all the precautions on it, so…” Ming Yu touched his nose and paused.

Only then did the emperor remember the booklet he casually left in the corner of the carriage, thinking about seeing his younger son earlier, where would he pay attention to this? After all, it’s all their own problem.

Thinking of this, my anger subsided a lot, and my mood finally calmed down, “Okay, now that you have arrived in Liangcheng, I will stay for a while and then talk about it. If you have something to do, just go and accompany me to look around. ”

Ming Yu naturally agreed. At this time, they had entered the inner house, the emperor looked around, and everyone else had dispersed, only Xie Yixiu was abrupt.
