Chapter Nine, One Person Achieves the Way

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Once again, after downing a mouthful of liquor, Li Tai lamented, "What a great talent he is, yet he is nothing but a fool"

As a small landowner rose to become a large landowner, the villagers' gaze towards Li Daxiong and his son changed.

"Does he want those wastelands?" Li Shimin asked again

Territorial inspection: The territory covers 1,600 acres, with a population of 4,300

Task Release: Increase the population to 8,000

A decree has arrived from the palace, curing Empress Changsun's illness. His Majesty has granted a vast expanse of land, bestowing all the land in Jingyang and its surrounding areas to Li Zheng

Li Daxiong was enjoying the envious gazes of the villagers; receiving two imperial edicts in succession is a blessing that many families would not even dare to imagine

Empress Zhangsun, who grew up taking medicine since childhood, has never consumed a remedy that could bring such comfort to her heart and spleen

Li Tai tested the inhaler on Li Lizhi using Li Zheng's method. After pressing the inhaler a few times, Li Lizhi's condition improved.

"Wait a moment." Li Shimin's eyes were filled with concern as he was about to stop and call the imperial physician to see if this medicine was safe to take

"Not very impressive, I really should have my son go to school as well," another person remarked

Empress Changsun took a spoonful of loquat syrup, which was exceptionally smooth upon entering. After consuming it, she experienced a refreshing sensation that permeated her spleen and stomach, and her breathing became much more unobstructed.

Reward: 6,000 tons of cement

Li Shimin hurriedly arrived at Li Lizhi's palace. Due to a previous argument with Li Zheng, symptoms appeared after running.

Perhaps it is the conscience that is troubling him, the more Li Tai thought about it, the more he felt guilty

The villagers were discussing how Li Zheng could actually cure the current empress's illness

Li Tai immediately said with joy, "It is what a child should do"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "I will fully satisfy all of Li Zheng's requests and appoint him to the Imperial Academy for compilation. You may take him to the Imperial Academy. Recently, there is an intention in the court to compile the 'Comprehensive Geography'. You should study diligently with Cen Wenben."

Li Shimin also smiled happily and summoned the imperial physician to examine this pipa dew

"What is this again?" Li Yifu asked while holding a cucumber

Breathing has become much smoother; I originally dared not take a deep breath, but this time, after taking a deep breath, I no longer felt the urge to cough

This Li Zheng is quite a catch, so be careful not to let other young ladies snatch him away

One thousand six hundred acres is equivalent to more than one hundred football fields

The reclamation task has been completed, and the first phase of crop cultivation has commenced

Hmm. Li Daxiong nodded with great authority

What kind of gaze is that? It is a gaze that looks upon the powerful.

Father, Li Zheng said that if a sudden illness occurs, this inhaler can be used" Li Tai explained

Jingyang Village in Jingyang County has produced a talented individual, and the villagers walk with their backs straight when visiting other villages. Our village has produced a talent who even cured the current Empress's illness. Does your village have such a person? I don't think so!

Li Tai took out the signed contract and said, "This guy really does want those wastelands; he probably has no idea how much money is involved"

The compilation work at the Imperial Academy is a leisurely task, allowing one to move about the Academy on ordinary days. This position also serves as a stepping stone to entering the court as an official, a coveted opportunity that many strive to attain but cannot access.

This fellow is foolish enough to want some useless land. Besides a few hundred acres of arable land, what good land is there in Jingyang? The rest is barren land that cannot produce any crops.

I feel much better now," Empress Changsun said with a smile on her face. "I no longer have the urge to cough, nor do I feel short of breath.

Returning to his residence, although he had obtained the medicine, Li Tai still felt somewhat gloomy. Taking a deep breath, he muttered to himself, "How can such a capable person be such a fool"

Li Yifu: "Really?"

A villager quietly remarked: "Indeed, those who have read books are quite impressive"

The crowd expresses their admiration

Li Lizhi learned the background of the matter in the Lize Hall, reflecting that it was indeed her fault, and Li Zheng had even provided the medicine for treatment

Remove all the seeds, Li Zheng called Li Yifu to prepare to plant these seeds.

... ...

Li Zheng took a wild bite of the cucumber, "Fairy fruit, eating it cures all ailments"

Matchmakers from the surrounding villages began to inquire about which family's daughters were easy to raise

The taste is not bitter, and it also has a hint of sweetness and coolness

How is it?" Li Shimin asked cautiously

It is just that we are a bit poor, and there is no woman in the family

It seems that Father Emperor is paving the way for Li Zheng to enter the court as an official, Li Tai thought to himself

The Li family has prospered

Li Yifu looked at the seeds scattered all over the courtyard and quietly asked, "What are these? Can they be planted?"

It is like a perfect jade disc, yet there is a very conspicuous flaw in its color

Jingyang

"The son of the minister accepts the command." Li Tai hurriedly bowed and spoke to *Tu* *Shu*

It is a pity that our child does not recognize even a single character

It is said that Li Daxiong's family has become the largest landlord in Jingyang. Although Li Daxiong does not possess the demeanor of a powerful figure, his son Li Zheng has also gained a bit. However, when one person achieves success, the entire village rises.

However, Li Tai's actions in this matter were solely motivated by filial piety in seeking medicine for Guanyin's maid, and he was well aware of the situation between himself and Li Chengqian

Li Taiyue felt increasingly uncomfortable and shouted to the servants, "Bring me some wine"

"Why am I such a fool?" Li Tai took another sip of wine, thinking that such a good medicine could cure both the Empress and his elder sister.

In today's world, only the powerful and privileged possess such fiefs. Although Li Zheng does not hold a noble title, he certainly has ample land.

Li Zheng sat alone in the small clinic, surveying his system, which contained a multitude of crops in the rewards section.

I saw it in a book," Li Zheng replied dismissively as a thought crossed his mind

It is essential to apologize to Li Zheng and also to express gratitude to him, as I have misunderstood him. Li Li Zhi has also made up her mind.

Li Zheng handed a cucumber to Li Yifu

The hybrid rice seeds, as well as seeds for potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes, are all available. Not only are there seeds, but there are also ready-to-eat cucumbers.

Li Shimin let out a sigh of relief, fortunate that both his daughter and the empress were unharmed

After examining its appearance and also smelling and tasting it, I can conclude for Li Shimin that this pipa dew has very mild medicinal properties, resembling something made with licorice and other herbs. In short, consuming it in excess will not cause any issues, and it can even be taken as a tonic for daily health maintenance.

Your Majesty! The princess is in trouble

"Speak louder, did you cure it?" Li Daxiong said again

If Li Zheng were to stand on either side of the Crown Prince or Qingque, he would feel uneasy. However, this young man Li Zheng is somewhat foolish, and thinking of this made Li Shimin feel a bit more at ease

"Hmm." Li Zheng replied in a low voice

Li Zheng: "Do you believe it?"

It is indeed a beautiful folly; this matter cannot be blamed on Li Zheng, said Empress Changsun

"It was I who cured him." Li Zheng nodded again

Li Zheng had not yet regained his composure from the system when Li Daxiong asked him in front of the villagers: "You have cured the current Empress's illness"

"This Li Zheng actually made Li Zhi cry?" Li Shimin's lips twitched, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"How did you recover?" Li Daxiong asked again

Looking at Li Tai, Li Shimin said: "Qingque, you are thoughtful"

Li Tai recounted the entire sequence of events, and Li Shimin listened with a remarkably expressive demeanor
