Chapter 914 (1/2)
In the year of the disaster, Li Dan led some students of the Imperial College to take Chang'an, Luoyang and other important state capitals as the center, and together with the local government, vigorously promoted new crops that could help them survive the disaster.
However, even though the people were already hungry, with dull eyes and weak legs, they preferred to eat leaves and grass roots. Even in the case of guanyintu, there were still some local aristocratic families or local officials who obstructed Li Dan's hard promotion.
In their opinion, these strange seeds, which have never been seen before, are just like the species with unknown spirit. Even if Li Dan ate the food made by the new species in front of many people, officials and aristocratic families, they still can not dispel the doubts in the minds of the people that they are brainwashed by officials and aristocratic families.
It was also from that time on, when Li Dan lamented the ignorance of the common people and the obstinacy of the powerful families in his heart, he thoroughly realized how much he hated these noble families who claimed to be for the welfare of the world.
He also realized that although the name of Tang Jiangshan was Li, if he really reached the bottom, the real influence on the people and the influence of powerful families would be much greater than that of the royal family.
Since then, he has also complained to Li Hong about the obstinacy of these aristocratic families and their influence in the hearts of the common people. However, when he said these words, his heart was still full of helpless and contradictions.
He didn't know what he wanted to do and express after he told his brother his dissatisfaction and complaints to the local aristocratic families!
Do you want the emperor to increase the suppression of local aristocratic families, five surnames and seven hopes? So that the people will not be deceived by those people? I hope that the emperor can see the influence of the powerful families and the five surnames and seven hopes in the hearts of the common people, and realize the deep-rooted strength of the five surnames and seven hopes, so as to ease the relationship with the five surnames and seven hopes, even for the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the common people.
At that time, Li Dan and Ludan were still promoting their crops to the local people.
In Li Hong's opinion, Li Dan's behavior at the beginning was like selling insurance in the previous life. He took a group of people and ate bread and boiled water. He had to go door-to-door with new species and the food made of new species and sell them to each household.
However, even so, many people still saw the new species as if they had seen the demons and ghosts. They were afraid that they would not be able to avoid it and get involved in the unknown.
This promotion hit Li Dan a great deal. He even said that Li Dan had never hated the great Confucianists left by the Imperial College, Hongwen hall and Chongwen hall. However, since this time, after returning to Chang'an, Li Dan even wanted to remonstrate Li Hong and ask for instructions to drive all these people out of the prison, so that they could continue to harm the next generation.
At that time, Li Zhi and Wu Mei were very pleased to see everything of the three brothers. They never thought that the royal brothers could work together like this.
Li Dan is selling ”insurance” here, while Li Zhe is trying to cross mountains with grain in a hot-air balloon. He hopes to distribute the grain from Luoyang granary to various state capitals in the shortest time and at the lowest cost. However, the unstable working characteristics of the hot-air balloon again and again have brought him a blow, which makes him want to jump off a cliff to vent his heart Help.
At that time, Li Hong's two brothers were traveling around the country, struggling to do what they could for him, the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty. In the Daming Palace of Chang'an, he was also on pins and needles. Like snowflakes in winter, memorials were smashed at him. Seven or eight of the ten memorials hoped that he could worship heaven and worship ancestors, or even punish himself Pray to heaven for good weather.
At that time, none of them was able to get better. They were in different environments, but their hearts were burning with fire. Fortunately, all of them have survived. Li Dan and Li Zhe have become indifferent to the idea of fiefdom since this disaster year.
In their hearts, the gains and losses of the fiefdoms were far less important than those of the Tang Dynasty under the rule of the emperor's brother. Even if the fiefs had avoided the famine, their mood at that time would not have been any good. After all, the people of the Tang Dynasty at that time had a miserable life.
