The Prime Minister's Private Visit Shocked Fang Xuanling!
It was almost evening, and the village at the foot of the mountain was filled with smoke and the fragrance of food!
Every household was cheering and eating the fragrant rice as if it was the new year!
On the mountain, Li Canglang was wearing his tiger skin. On the way back to the Taoist temple from the village, he happened to encounter a big colorful insect. When the big insect saw the green bull, it was excited and charged at the green bull!
The green bull was extremely calm. With a light swing of its hooves, it kicked the big insect away. Then, with a fierce leap, its two sharp horns ruthlessly pierced into the big insect's abdomen!
This multicolored tiger's eyes were wide open before it died. It was obvious that it had begun to doubt its own life. The dignified overlord of the mountains was actually killed by a green bull!
Moreover, he had fought so easily!
The multicolored tiger felt that even if it died, it would not have the face to see its parents!
Li Canglang couldn't be bothered with the multicolored tiger's thoughts. He lifted the tiger that weighed hundreds of pounds with his tender hands!
Back in the temple, Li Canglang personally skinned the tiger!
He was prepared to send it down the mountain in a few days and let the elders at the foot of the mountain help him sew tiger leather clothes and tiger leather hats. After all, it was almost winter and it was very cold on the mountain!
The blood vessels in his arm were filled with lightning tribulations. Although these lightning tribulations did not have any magical effects, they gave Li Canglang immense strength. Even if the green bull had not attacked, he could have killed the multicolored tiger with a single punch!
[Multicolored Tiger's inner OS: Fortunately, Old Bull acted quickly. Otherwise, if I died in the hands of this six-year-old child, it would be really embarrassing!])
After removing the tiger skin, Li Canglang removed two more tiger legs and threw the rest of the tiger skeleton meat into the storage room at the side!
After setting up a fire in the house, Li Canglang took out the fine salt he had made himself and began to roast the tiger leg!
Tiger legs were not something that could be eaten in the later generations, but they could be tasted in the Great Tang. Not long after they were roasted, the fragrance overflowed, and the unique tiger fat slowly dripped into the fire!
Li Canglang licked his lips from time to time!
After roasting it for 90% done, Li Canglang couldn't wait to sprinkle some fine salt on it and start chowing down on it!
The taste was too good!
The entire tiger leg was extremely huge. Li Canglang was already full after eating it. He could only throw the other tiger leg aside and prepare to eat it for breakfast tomorrow!
……
Late at night, Taiji Palace was still brightly lit.
Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was serving Emperor Li Shimin.
"Xuanling, all the granaries near Chang 'an have been collected, but there still doesn't seem to be enough food! The Turks are rampant and have looted several granaries. I'm afraid that the people outside the city are still hungry!”
Li Shi Min looked at the memorial on the table and couldn't help but worry about the country and its people.
"It's already late at night, but His Majesty is still worried about the country and the people. He's truly worthy of being a wise ruler for thousands of years! I'm willing to share your worries and personally go to the suburbs to check tomorrow!”
Fang Xuanling cupped his hands. He understood the flattery of officialdom!
"Then I'll have to trouble Xuan Ling. Also, we have to speed up the grain transportation team in Jiangnan.”Li Shi Min waved his hand.
"Don't worry! Cheng Yaojin was personally supervising Jiangnan, so there wouldn't be any mistakes. He is a lucky general." Fang Xuanling laughed.
Li Shiming's tightly knitted brows slowly relaxed after hearing Cheng Yaojin's words!
The next day, early in the morning.
Fang Xuanling was dressed in plain clothes and left Chang 'an City with his family guards.
The outskirts of Chang 'an City were in ruins. After all, the Turkic army had just finished their rampage, and it would take time for them to fully recover.
"Sigh, these damn barbarians are simply a scourge!”Fang Xuanling cursed as he looked at the broken scene!
"Do you know which places in the suburbs are suffering the most?”Fang Xuanling asked the guards who accompanied him.
"That must be the village at the foot of Crouching Dragon Mountain! It was said that it was completely burned down by the Turkic army!”
"Yes, I heard about it too! Moreover, that place was close to the forest and was extremely remote. Usually, it was a remote village!”
"I have relatives there. It seems that every family has run out of food and has started to eat weeds! You still have to flee to the south!"
The guards began to talk at once!
"Eat wild grass? You want to escape?" Fang Xuanling was stunned!
He stayed in his own mansion every day, or went to the magnificent palace. At most, he would see poor people begging on Vermilion Bird Street, but those poor people could still eat their fill every day with charity!
Now that he heard that there were commoners living on wild grass, Fang Xuanling's hands began to tremble!
"Are you telling the truth?" Fang Xuanling's eyes were fixed on the guards.
"Of course it's the truth. I don't dare to lie to the Prime Minister!”
"Even if I had ten guts, I wouldn't dare to lie in front of the Prime Minister!”
The guards hurriedly said!
Fang Xuanling was riding on a black horse, holding the reins in his hand, but his eyes were unusually serious!
"After staying in the court for a long time, your eyes are indeed blinded. You can't understand the misery of the people outside at all! Let's go, we'll head to Crouching Dragon Mountain now!”
Fang Xuanling gave the order, patted the black horse lightly, and rushed down Crouching Dragon Mountain!
When they arrived at Little Liu Village at the foot of Crouching Dragon Mountain, Fang Xuanling could see smoke rising from every house from afar. The aroma of rice wafted for miles!
It was lunchtime, and Fang Xuanling's stomach started growling when he smelled the alluring aroma of the rice!
"Didn't you say you were going to eat wild grass? What was this smell? It's the fragrance of rice!"
To hide his embarrassment, Fang Xuanling fiercely glared at the guards and snorted angrily.
Fang Xuanling thought to himself, This rice smells even better than mine!!
The guards were also shocked. They were not of high status. Many of them were born in the suburbs of Chang 'an, so they naturally knew a lot of things in the suburbs!
The news of people starving to death in the four villages under Crouching Dragon Mountain had long spread outside Chang 'an City!
But now, what was the reason for this fragrance?
The master and servant, who were filled with confusion, finally stepped into Xiao Liu's village!
It was inevitable that a newcomer's book would be poor. It was understandable that his current results were not good, but he still hoped that readers who liked this book would support him!
Newbies also have big dreams, and I definitely won't let you down (hardworking face)!
