Chapter 488 Yuancong Forbidden Army


Chapter 488 Yuan Cong’s Forbidden Army

At this time, cucumbers had just been introduced from the Western Regions. They were rarely cultivated in the Central Plains and were replaced by courgettes. As a member of the royal family, Princess Jinyang had certainly eaten such rare varieties, but even in the royal greenhouse, there was no way to grow cucumbers in winter.

When the old farmer saw this, he laughed, with a wrinkled face full of doting. He gently stretched out his hand to stop Princess Jinyang, and said with a gentle smile: "Girl, this one is not delicious, it is too tender!" , stretched out his rough but clean hands, picked an almost ripe cucumber from the shelf next to him, put it into the hot spring water flowing in the waterway, washed it, and handed it to Princess Jinyang.

Princess Jinyang took it and said obediently: "Thank you, grandpa!"

Holding the juicy green cucumber, he opened his mouth and took a bite.

"Click"

"Stop!" Li Tai, who had just walked in, roared when he saw this, and rushed over with a single step, grabbing Princess Jinyang's cucumber with his hands. At first glance, he saw that the top had been bitten, with small rabbit-like teeth. The seals were all printed. Princess Jinyang stared at her two big watery eyes, her little mouth was closed, her cheeks were bulging like a hamster, and she was chewing quickly.

Click click click……

Li Tai's face turned dark. He threw away the cucumber in his hand and reached out to catch Princess Jinyang. He wanted to open her mouth and dig out the eaten cucumber.

Princess Jinyang was caught by him, her little body kept struggling, her head tilted hard, and she said vaguely: "No..."

When Fang Jun saw it, he immediately became angry. He stepped forward and pulled Princess Jinyang over. He grabbed Li Tai by the back of his neck with his other hand and gave Li Tai a hard shake, causing Li Tai to stumble to the side.

"Are you crazy?" Fang Jun held Princess Jinyang in his arms and scolded Li Tai angrily. He didn't know why Li Tai was crazy and was afraid that he would scare Princess Jinyang.

Princess Jinyang was not afraid at all. She knew why the emperor was like this. She was chewing crisp and sweet cucumbers, her body was held in Fang Jun's arms, and her big eyes looked at the emperor who was thrown aside by Fang Jun. She was very surprised. She looks excited...

Li Tai is going crazy!

The dignified prince was suddenly thrown aside by Fang Jun. He almost fell over and was completely disgraced!

"Is this king crazy? You are crazy! Fang Jun, you are so bold. Do you know who Si Zi is? She is a princess, a royal princess with golden branches and beautiful leaves, and the most beloved princess of my father! How dare you take it casually? If Si Zi eats this unclean food, how do you know whether it is poisonous or dirty? Who will bear the consequences if Si Zi eats it?”

Li Tai was furious, pointed at Fang Jun's nose and cursed.

Fang Jun suddenly realized and couldn't help but touch his nose, feeling a little embarrassed...

But the matter has come to this, even if it is wrong, it cannot be admitted, let alone facing Wei King Li Tai?

Fang Jun said harshly: "The big deal is that someone will take the responsibility!"

"What the hell!" Li Tai said reluctantly: "What's the identity of Sizi, and what's your identity? Even if I chop off your head, it won't be enough to exchange for one hair of Sizi!"

This is not a pleasant thing to say, but in this era, it is indeed the case...

Fang Jun couldn't argue, so he could only say: "You don't have to be so nervous. Look, isn't this okay? In my greenhouse, I pay the most attention to hygiene, so it's okay."

Li Tai jumped to his feet, pointed at the old farmer, and shouted: "Is it still hygienic? I just saw it. It was the courgettes that the old man picked for Sizi with his hands. Look at his hands, they are so dirty. What the hell, how can such a lowly slave be worthy of picking food for Si Zi? ”

After Wen Yan, the old farmer was a little embarrassed and shrank back in embarrassment.

Fang Jun didn't like hearing it anymore and said displeasedly: "Li Tai, have you forgotten about "The Charcoal Seller"? You really don't remember to eat but not to fight. When will you learn to change your bad habit of looking down on people?" ?”

Li Tai sneered: "He is just a lowly servant, why should I think highly of him? If Fang Jun is capable, then make another song "The Charcoal Seller", and he will be in disgrace for thousands of years. I will admit defeat. What's the big deal? ?”

He said this, but he was playing drums in his heart. This little bastard is quite talented. What if he really comes up with another song called "Charcoal Seller"? Li Tai doesn't care too much whether he has a bad reputation or not, but he has just raised a little hope of a reserve, so don't let this kid ruin it...

Thinking of this, Li Tai secretly regretted it.

This guy just gives me a hammer, why should I yell at him?

Fang Jun did not compose a poem, but sneered: "Despicable slave? Haha, Your Highness the King of Wei, do you believe that even Emperor Gaozu couldn't say such a thing when he was standing here?"

Li Tai was stunned: "What... do you mean?"

He looked at the old farmer with an uneasy face in surprise, wondering if this was a big shot? I can’t tell...

Sizi jumped out of Fang Jun's arms, walked over and took the old farmer's hand, and said sweetly: "Grandpa, don't worry, grandpa is not dirty! Sizi will not let the emperor punish you." But suddenly he discovered that the old farmer had just The hand that picked courgettes for her was intact, but half of the palm of the other hand was missing...

The little princess did not feel scared, but gently touched her with her delicate little hands, raised her head, and asked in a sweet voice: "Grandpa, does it hurt?"

The old farmer grinned, "It doesn't hurt!"

The old farmer was smiling, but the corners of his eyes were a little moist. He shook the delicate little hand in his heart with his rough big hands. His mood was agitated. He was very touched by the kindness and understanding of the little princess.

Fang Jun snorted: "This Li Shangen was once a member of Emperor Gaozu's Yuan Cong Imperial Army. He had been guarding the left and right since Emperor Gaozu raised his troops. In the Battle of Huoyi, it was he who fought in the Song Dynasty from thousands of troops. Laosheng's men saved Emperor Gaozu's life, but he was also cut off in half. Only the palm of your hand. How dare you open your mouth to be a despicable servant of such a benefactor of the late emperor and shut up your mouth as a servant? How dare you, your highness, who lives in comfort and enjoyment in the splendid country that your ancestors worked for with their blood and sweat, to look down on him? ”

Li Tai was dumbfounded.

What a mess, how could such a person still exist here?

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu used 30,000 Taiyuan Conglong soldiers as imperial guards and called them the Yuan Congjing Army. They were the emperor's personal soldiers for life and were treated well. At first, these Yuan Cong forbidden troops followed Gaozu in several battles, and most of them died on the battlefield. It was not until they broke through Chang'an and dominated the pass that they established the power of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop.

More than twenty years have passed, and the Yuan Cong Forbidden Army has long since withered away. They either died on the battlefield or were in high positions. There are not many survivors.

Li Tai is not just arrogant, he also knows how to look at people.

In front of such a meritorious old man who had to be courteous even in front of his father, how could he dare to show off?

Taking a deep breath, Li Tai adjusted his robes and crown, and fell to the ground: "Li Tai is young, ignorant, arrogant and ignorant. I hope I can forgive you."

"Aiya, how can this be done? Your Highness, please get up quickly, please get up quickly..."

Li Shangen was startled and hurriedly tried to help Li Tai up.

Fang Jun said: "Uncle Shan Gen, don't worry, you have already expressed your loyalty to Emperor Gaozu, to the Li family, and to the entire Tang Dynasty with your own blood and body. It is only natural to accept him as a courtesy. ”

This is the truth in Li Tai's heart, but why do these words sound so unpleasant when they come out of Fang Jun's mouth?

But how dare Li Shangen let the prince bow to him?

He was so frightened that he almost fell to his knees before Li Tai gave up.

Then he followed Princess Jinyang to the left and right, and talked to Li Shangen calmly. Although this kid is a bit arrogant, he is quick-witted and articulate. If he makes up his mind to trick people, he is quite good at it. Even Li Shangen, who had seen the battlefield of life and death and crawled out of the dead, was coaxed into smiling and felt honored.

Fang Jun looked at Nuwai and asked loudly: "Uncle Shan Gen, have you taken good care of the cotton seeds I brought back from the Western Regions?"

Li Shangen replied: "Then why don't you take care of it? Erlang trusts the old man and gives such a precious thing to the old man. Naturally, he treats it like his lifeblood. He has to keep one eye open even when sleeping!"
< br>

Fang Jun nodded with satisfaction, naturally trusting this old soldier who had no children and no one to rely on.

After thinking for a while, he asked: "How come you haven't seen Mr. Liu? Later, ask him to look for me. Just tell him that I have something strange and ask him to help me with my advice."

Li Shangen suddenly became excited: "How dare you wait? I will call Liu Laoshi and ask him to go to Erlang's study!"

Li Taiqi said: "Fang Er has already said that we'll talk later, why are we in such a hurry? Don't fall because of this nonsense!"

"Your Highness doesn't know something." Li Shangen grinned and said proudly: "The things in Erlang's mind are all good ideas worth a thousand dollars! Every time Erlang comes up with something new, it turns out to be very useful. Why? Dare to delay even a moment? Your Highness just walks around and comes as he pleases."

After saying this, he said goodbye to Li Tai and Princess Jinyang and left in a hurry.

Li Tai thought for a while and felt relieved.

Fang Jun is indeed very accomplished in the field of strange skills and tricks. Look at the things he created, such as glass, gunpowder, curved shaft plow, movable type printing... any one of them is enough to be passed down for generations to come.

Apart from his bad temper, this boy is actually quite talented. Compared to me, he is only a little bit behind... (End of Chapter)
