"Sigh, alright, this one won't talk nonsense with you. Your contribution this time is indelible. As long as the cotton-padded clothes are spread to all parts of the Great Tang, if I don't bestow you with a title…”
"How will the servants see me on that day?”
"Therefore, you should obediently accept the reward.”
Li Shiming stood up and said to Zhangsun Wuji.
"Alright, take me to see the cotton and the workshop.”
Li Shiming immediately shouted for them to leave without giving Zhangsun Yu a chance to refuse. Zhangsun Wuji and Gao Shilian could only hold back their laughter as they watched the childish battle of wits and courage between the two.
The way these two people interacted with each other was really like father and son.
Knowing that His Majesty wanted to run away and didn't want to continue arguing with this childish fellow, Zhangsun Wuji said directly.
"Your Majesty, this way please."
As he spoke, he led Li Shimin away.
After the three of them left, Zhangsun Chong took a deep breath and walked to Zhangsun Yu's side.
"Pa!"
He slapped Zhangsun Yu's shoulder.
"You brat, you really don't want to live! That was His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Tang! An existence who could decide the life and death of the world with a single word, yet you actually dared to be disrespectful to His Majesty.”
Although he said that, Zhangsun Chong's eyes were filled with admiration. Although he seemed to be jumping around, that was only in front of his friends, his family, his elders, or the Emperor. He was as obedient as a little lamb and did not even dare to speak loudly.
Compared to Zhangsun Yu, who dared to confront Li Shiming, he was in awe!
"But Brother Yu, you can't do this in the future. Otherwise, Uncle Wei and the others will definitely impeach you.”
Gao Ling 'er said as she held Zhangsun Yu's hand. Zhangsun Yu didn't seem to mind. At most, when he was unhappy, he would just leave.
In any case, no one in the world, whether it was a person or a country, could stop him.
No one would have known that his small body would have such monstrous strength.
"Alright, it's okay. If you're unhappy in the future, you can just leave. In any case, the world is so big. With my ability, where can I not be a hero?”
After Zhangsun Yu finished speaking, he led the two of them towards Mt. Mian Hua and the workshop.
The two of them followed behind Zhangsun Yu and finally reacted.
"What? Brother Yu, have you agreed to go to Chang 'an?”
Gao Ling 'er said in surprise. She also liked the beautiful scenery here. However, they were still ten miles away from Chang 'an, so it was inconvenient to meet each other.
If Zhangsun Yu went to Chang 'an, wouldn't he be able to see him every day?
Zhangsun Yu coughed lightly and didn't reply. Instead, he quickened his pace.
Behind him, Zhangsun Chong and Gao Ling 'er burst into laughter. How could they describe the current Zhangsun Yu? That was to say that he was unwilling, but his body and actions were more honest than anyone else.
A typical case of having a different heart and mouth.

"Is this cotton?"
At the foot of the cotton mountain, it was originally a barren mountain outside of the Hidden Dragon Mountain. However, at this moment, because of the cotton planted all over the mountain, it was directly called the cotton mountain by everyone.
Li Shi Min looked at the snow-white cotton in front of him, his eyes filled with excitement.
He strode forward and stretched out his trembling hands, wanting to touch the cotton.
"Your Majesty, be careful. There are sharp thorns on the branches of the cotton tree.”
Although the cotton thorns weren't poisonous, Li Shiming had a noble dragon body. It wouldn't be good if he was pricked.
"It's fine. This is a divine item that can save the people of the world from fire and water. So what if I'm stabbed?”
Li Shi Min said as he gently plucked a piece of cotton from the branch. Touching the soft and warm cotton in his hand, Li Shi Min couldn't help but reveal a pleasantly surprised expression.
"It's indeed a divine item. With this thing, the people of the world will be saved!”
Li Shimin was excited. As the Emperor of the Great Tang, he cared about the people of the world. However, what was placed on the table every day was the number of people who starved to death due to the famine in which prefecture, or the number of people who would freeze to death due to the extreme cold this winter.
Every time he saw this, his heart ached. Because these were his people! Since he had taken over the world, obtained their support, and became his people, he had the obligation to help them get rid of all this.
However, Li Shiming had been looking for a way to solve this problem, but he had found nothing.
He had thought that only after many years of development and the all-round development of the Great Tang's economy could he alleviate the current situation.
He had never imagined that the heavens would favor the Great Tang so much. The birth of cotton could change the Great Tang greatly.
Li Shimin was not only thinking about how the people would not freeze to death in this winter, but he was also thinking about something else. What if they continued to expand production while ensuring that the Great Tang had enough?
Then could he make cotton-padded clothes and sell them to foreign countries? In exchange for all kinds of gold, silver, treasures, and resources.
And the gold, silver, treasures, and resources they could exchange for could be used to develop the Great Tang. In the coming year, the people of the Great Tang would live even better!
When he thought of the enormous change that cotton could bring, the possibility of turning the tide and saving the Great Tang…Li Shi Min looked at the young man behind him, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
At that moment, Li Shiming almost had an idea.
Should he give this little fellow the surname Li and adopt him as his adopted son? It had to be said that this idea had taken root in Li Shiming's heart as soon as it appeared. He even thought about whether he should go back and discuss it with Empress Zhangsun.
