    No. 234 The solar eclipse came as scheduled. The Taoist priests who came to Tianxian Palace to practice left. Under Huang Junming's instruction, the Taoists who were able to become teachers in medicine and martial arts also received the first-class magic pots and documents from Tianxian Palace.  , went down the mountain to help the world and bring peace to the people.  Nearly seven or eight hundred people left the Tianxian Palace at once, making it quite deserted.

    Although the medical skills of these people who left were not up to Sun Simiao's standards, and their martial arts skills were not up to Feng Junzi's standards, they were enough to cope with various situations after going down the mountain. According to Huang Junming's thinking, the Taoists of Tianxian Palace cannot stay at home all the time.  On the mountain, apply what you learn, and only by using it will you become more and more proficient.  There are very few doctors in the Tang Dynasty now, especially in remote villages.  The soldiers at the border are also in a situation of lack of medical treatment and medicine. Although this group of people going down the mountain is a drop in the bucket for the entire Tang Dynasty, if it is limited to a certain place, it will definitely be "sending warmth".

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????In addition to protecting the medical skills, Huang Junming also wants to let them join the military or to bring peace to the country and the people. There are still quite a lot of evil rangers in the Tang Dynasty.  Compared with those Wu Hous, the martial arts in Tianxian Palace are still half better than them. As the saying goes, martial arts is for the country and medicine is for the people, which is a pretty good combination.  Moreover, these Taoists who came down the mountain were very familiar with the new teachings developed by Huang Junming and others, so they could be regarded as preaching by the way.

    In the days after the Taoists left, Huang Junming and the Taoists who were proficient in farm tools finally improved the historical Quyuan plow on the basis of Jiangdong plow.  But it's called Quyuanli.  In Huang Junming's opinion, it is completely different from the original Qu Yuanli in history.  According to the experiments of Huang Junming and several Taoists, the plows made by this new process are more than twice as easy to use than the straight plows used in the Tang Dynasty. As long as there is one cow, it is really no joke to produce an acre of land a day.  However, the cost of the new plow was much higher, which made Huang Junming a little depressed.

    Fortunately, after several modifications, another new plow was made.  This new plow is not even remotely similar to the historical curved shaft plow, and even the cost is only slightly higher than that of the straight plow.  Although the efficiency is not up to the standards of the previous new plow.  But in the Tang Dynasty in the era of direct plowing, it was definitely a first-class farm artifact.

    Escaped Li Shimin's soldiers in the valley.  Huang Junming secretly destroyed the plow he developed for the first time, but retained the manufacturing method of the plow, and then sent the Quyuan plow to Li Shimin's East Palace.  In fact, Huang Junming was reluctant to throw away the research results of himself and the Taoists.  But that plow is really not suitable for the current Tang Dynasty.  If the current Tang Dynasty implements the new plow.  I am afraid that few farmers can afford a new plow.  Farmers couldn't afford it, but big families and big landowners could afford it.  And why don¡¯t big landowners from big families think about cultivating more fields when they get a new plow?  In this way, the poor become poorer and the rich become richer.  In the end, land annexation became serious and farmers became tenants without their own land.  And this is not what Huang Junming wants to see.

    The modified Quyuan plow is not like this. The cost is low and the efficiency is not low. Farmers can afford it. In this way, farmers have land to cultivate.  That way you can maintain your own living needs.  Naturally, I won¡¯t buy land.  The aristocratic families got the Quyuan plow. Although they might try their best to expand their land, no one bought the land.  They can only reclaim wasteland.  This is still the best of both worlds.

    Although Huang Junming destroyed the new plow, he gave the Quyuan plow to himself.  Li Shimin knew it, but about this.  It just passed by turning a blind eye.  How could Li Shimin, the patriarch of the Tang Dynasty, not think of what Huang Junming wanted?  Although Huang Junming destroyed the samples of the new plow, didn't he still keep the drawings?  Li Shimin believed that one day in the future, Huang Junming would submit the drawings to his desk.

    The Aristocratic Family has long been a thorn in Li Shimin's mind, and he wants to suppress the Aristocratic Family.  Then we must not allow the aristocratic family to benefit, and we must win over the people at the bottom.  Li Shimin is quite clear about this.

    Time passes day by day, and today is the time for Li Chunfeng to predict the coming of the solar eclipse.  Li Shimin, who had already known the news, told no one.  He just secretly passed on the dragon robe to worship the heaven, sat on the dragon chair of Tai Chi Hall, closed his eyes and meditated, and was in the side hall of Tai Chi Hall.  Several black-armored warriors holding weapons firmly guarded the palace gate.  No one was allowed to enter, even the accompanying eunuchs and maids had long been driven away by Li Shimin.  Because, that side hall has the hearts and minds of the people all over the world.

    "Those who wanted to seize and taint the hearts of the people, Li Shimin did not understand and bloodletted him. The Xuanjia soldiers who followed Li Shimin to conquer the world were not just as powerful as they say.

    With the sound of rattling armor, a black-armored guard walked to Li Shimin's side, knelt down on one knee and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty! The ministers outside the palace asked your Majesty to come out of the palace to save the sun."

    Li Shimin?I opened my eyes while recuperating my energy, and secretly said in my heart that it¡¯s coming!  After adjusting his dragon robe, he took long strides and walked towards the gate of Tai Chi Hall. Four more mysterious guards appeared from nowhere, holding Chang Ge and following closely behind Li Shimin.  The moment he opened the door, Li Shimin turned his head slightly and stared at the side hall where the "Qu Yuan Plow" was stored.  Then the light in his eyes became more determined.  He pushed the palace door suddenly, strode forward and stood on the dragon steps.

    "I will see your Majesty." As Li Shimin appeared, the ministers who had been waiting impatiently all knelt down on the ground and worshiped Li Shimin.

    "Your Majesty, according to the observations of the star observer, a Tengu eclipse is about to occur today. However, according to the calendar, there should not be a Tengu eclipse today. Therefore, according to historical records, either there is an evildoer around Your Majesty, or"  Feng Deyi was considered a veteran, so he was naturally the first to speak.  But he only heard him stop talking in the middle of his words and stopped talking.  However, all civil and military officials in the dynasty knew what Feng Deyi wanted to express.

    "Either what?" Li Shimin said to the ministers with an expressionless face: "Either there are monsters around me causing trouble! Or I have lost my virtue! This dog eating the sun is a warning from God, right? Huh?" Li Shimin's  The voice was a bit high pitched.  "Is this what you all mean? Okay! I want to see if there is a monster around me that God has warned me about, or if I have abandoned my heart and left heaven to follow people's wishes. Someone is here to control the Temple of Heaven. Save the sun!"

    The ministers were kept silent by Li Shimin's two words. Many people actually knew that this solar eclipse had nothing to do with humans, but some old Confucian scholars believed deeply in the theory of "influence between heaven and man" and stubbornly believed that  As long as the Tengu eclipse occurs, there will definitely be these two results.

    And of these two results, the old Confucianists still prefer the latter, that is, Li Shimin renounced morality and nature followed people's wishes.  Otherwise, why has there been no unpredicted solar eclipse in the ten years Li Yuan has been in power, but why has there been an unpredicted solar eclipse in Li Shimin's time in power?  There must be a reason for this.

    Li Shimin¡¯s dragon chariot led the way, and the honor guards in front and behind him were all withdrawn for unknown reasons.  He was replaced by a black-armored soldier wearing a solemn suit.  What's more, the scabbards of these black armor soldiers have disappeared. Each of them is holding a sword in one hand and a sharp steel knife in the other, walking extremely slowly.  After that are the ministers, for them.  It is easy to feel that the current atmosphere is abnormal.  Everyone was silent and followed the dragon chariot step by step forward.

    Finally, we reached the Temple of Heaven, and the atmosphere was so depressing and scary.  Huang Junming stood on the Temple of Heaven, holding a dagger in his right hand.  He stared at the sun above his head regardless of the glare.  And tied in front of him was a strong sheep with all its limbs tied.  This sheep is the necessary animal for the sun-saving ceremony.

    Suddenly, a small black spot appeared on the sun, and the entire earth instantly became dark.  Li Shimin tightened the dagger in his hand, and the two mysterious guards behind him stepped forward to untie the sheep, but they held the sheep firmly in front of Li Shimin.  Li Shimin's eyes widened, and the dagger in his hand went straight through the sheep's throat, bringing up a handful of gorgeous blood.

    The sheep struggled, but it was ineffective under the hold of the two black armor soldiers. As the blood flowed more and more, it finally fell down helplessly.  Seeing that the sheep was no longer struggling, the Xuanjia soldier gently raised his head and glanced at Li Shimin, who nodded expressionlessly.  A flash of sword light flashed.  The sheep's head fell to the ground, but was copied into the hand of another Xuanjia soldier.  Regardless of the bleeding sheep's head.  The Xuanjia soldier held the sheep's head in both hands and knelt down on one knee beside Li Shimin.

    Li Shimin finally placed the sheep head handed over by the Xuanjia soldiers gently and neatly on the sacrifice plate.  He casually lit the candles on both sides of the offering plate.  He picked up three thick and long tribute incense sticks, lit them on the candle, and inserted them into the incense burner.

    Another waiter took the futon and placed it in front of Li Shimin. By this time, the entire sun had been blocked.  The sound of civilians beating gongs and shouting could be heard in the distance.  Li Shimin straightened his robes and knelt straight on the futon.  He shouted loudly: "I, Li Shimin, the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have been on the throne for less than a year. Dare I ask God, have there been evildoers causing trouble since I took the throne? Dare I ask God, have I ever lost my moral integrity and lost the support of the people since I took the throne? I have taken the throne.  How can I turn my back on the enjoyment of the people of the world so far? Since I came to the throne"

    Li Shimin asked angrily to the sky in a loud voice, which was completely different from the previous structure of blaming himself in the sun-saving ceremony. He heard the ministers behind him all cry: "Your Majesty, you can't do this! You will suffer.  Damn it!"

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    Finished, went to bed.  Good night everyone (To be continued)
