Chapter 1006

"What you two Aiqing said is very reasonable, but I can't seal two fiefs alone!" Li Shimin said helplessly.

"Wei Chen is only a small suggestion, which still needs your Majesty's decision." Zheng's master said modestly.

"Merton, where do you think the choice of my granddaughter is appropriate?" Li Shimin turned to Merton. Xiao Rui and the Zheng family leader immediately changed their faces. If Merton closed the land nearby on the grounds that he didn't want his daughter to be too far away from him, I'm afraid everything they did was in vain.

Merton thought for a moment and said, "thank you for your love. I think it's more important to feed babies all over the world. I'm willing to choose a place in the north for my little girl."

"Ah!" no one thought that Merton really chose his daughter's back cover in the far north.

Zheng's family leader immediately showed a confident smile. He believed that with a little provocation, there would be a gap between the Mohist family and the Jiangnan aristocratic family.

"Your Majesty Hui, the northern grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and the princess is shouldering the gospel of babies all over the world. I'm afraid it can't be done without ten thousand hectares of land." Zheng's family leader said with awe inspiring righteousness, as if he was wholeheartedly considering the eldest daughter of Mohism.

Xiao Rui on one side suddenly looked gloomy. He originally thought that mojiazi was close to Jiangnan and would choose Songjiang mansion, but he didn't expect that mojiazi chose the north, which made Zheng's master take advantage of the loophole.

"Ten thousand hectares of land!" Li Shimin not only pondered. Although ten thousand hectares of land seemed to be a lot, most of the grasslands were deserted, and I'm afraid there were few families. Not to mention that this was a matter of experimental milk feeding babies, which was reasonable.

"No, what Weichen asks for his daughter is not a million hectares of land, but a million hectares of land." Merton's voice shocked the whole party like a thunder.

"A million hectares of land!" in an instant, everyone looked at Merton with incredible eyes. Not to mention that Merton's daughter was only a princess, even the prince and Princess dared not say that they wanted a million hectares of land. You know, a million hectares of land is almost equivalent to the state of the Han Dynasty.

"Hahaha! Mozi is looking for death. He is just giving birth to a daughter. He is spoiled and charming, and dares to ask for a million hectares of land. Why don't you rebel!" Zheng Chang laughed wildly in his heart.

Others dare not lower their heads silently and dare not look at Li Shimin's eyes.

"Where do you want to seal this million hectares of land?" Li Shimin said slowly, his voice was calm, and there was no waves at all.

Merton seemed unaware and said, "I want to seal my daughter's fief in Yulin ancient city."

"Yulin ancient city!" Li Shimin frowned. Yulin was clear, but he couldn't remember where the ancient city of Yulin in the Tang Dynasty was.

"Auxiliary machine, do you know where the ancient city of Yulin is?" Li Shimin turned and asked changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji is Princess Changle's uncle and Princess Changle's daughter. At the full moon, he will naturally come, but changsun Wuji is very low-key and doesn't show off like Zheng's family master.

Hearing Li Shimin's inquiry, sun Wuji thought for a moment and suddenly remembered: "Your Majesty, Yulin ancient city was originally in the Mu Us desert north of the Great Wall, but it has been abandoned due to the invasion of yellow sand. Yulin City has moved south. Now the periphery of Yulin ancient city has been surrounded by desert, and now it is a vast desert."

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at Merton puzzled and said, "you want to seal your daughter's land in the vast desert. Even if there are millions of hectares of land, they are all desert. You can't raise cattle without a grass! Are you sure you're right!"

Merton solemnly nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't say anything. Once upon a time, Yulin ancient city was an important town. It was a land of abundant water and grass in the Han Dynasty. Now it has become a vast desert, which is really sad."

Yulin ancient city, known as camel city and desert city, was once the most fertile land, but now it has become a piece of ruins.

"Vicissitudes of the sea, but so!" most of you are full of poetry and books. Naturally, you know that Yulin ancient city was a land of abundant water and grass before, but now it is abandoned.

Merton shook his head and said, "no, the abandonment of Yulin ancient city is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster."

"Man made disaster!" suddenly everyone could not help frowning.

Merton nodded: "Yes, the ancient city of Yulin was originally a land rich in water and grass, but it has become a vast desert in hundreds of years. It is the desertification caused by overgrazing and over reclamation by herdsmen. If it is not treated, it will continue to expand with the continuous erosion of Maowusu Desert in the future. According to Mohist statistics, Maowusu Desert will expand one mile every year. At that time, Yulin will not move to the city It is not impossible for Yulin to move three times. "

Now the Mu Us desert has just formed, with a scale of about one million hectares, and the difficulty of governance is much lower than that of later generations. This is also the reason why Merton took the initiative to govern the Mu Us Desert.

"Three relocation of Yulin!" Li Shimin's face sank. Merton's words are amazing, but they will not come true. After all, Yulin City has been moved once. If the Mu Us desert has been expanding, it is expected to move twice.

"What's more, even one day, when the Mu Us Desert spreads behind the Great Wall, the yellow sand all over the sky will bury the Great Wall under the influence of the strong wind, and the natural danger of the Great Wall will become a smooth road. At that time, the natural danger of the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed." Merton said proudly.

"The natural danger of the Great Wall was destroyed!" suddenly everyone couldn't help taking a breath. The Great Wall is the most important barrier of the Tang Dynasty. If it was buried by yellow sand, the cavalry on the grassland could easily cross the natural danger of the great wall and come straight to Chang'an, which is a lot of threats.

"Mo Hou is somewhat alarmist!"

Zheng's family leader disagreed. Although what Merton said has a certain truth, in his heart, Merton's move must be covered by the millions of hectares of land he said. And this is 400 years later. The Tang Dynasty does not necessarily inherit it for 400 years!

The elder sun Wuji shook his head and said, "it's not alarmist. The ancient city of Yulin is less than 400 miles away from the Great Wall, and it's a smooth road. According to the speed of desert expansion, I'm afraid it has reached the foot of the Great Wall in less than 400 years. It's not impossible to bury the Great Wall with the power of wind and sand."

In the Ming Dynasty, the burial of the Great Wall in yellow sand was the biggest headache of the Ming Dynasty, which spent a lot of money to pick up sand.

Merton arched his hand and said: "indeed, and the Mu Us desert is just within the bend of the Yellow River. There are a large number of tributaries of the Yellow River, most of which flow into the Yellow River. As long as the Mu Us desert can be controlled, it will be of great benefit to the project of controlling the Yellow River."

Once the Mu Us desert is controlled, the Yellow River will reduce a lot of sediment, which is of great benefit to the control of the Yellow River.

"Since Mo Hou wants to take Yulin ancient city as his beloved daughter's fief, does he already have a way to control the desert?" Xiao Rui said inconceivably. It's a deserted desert, with no grass and no birds and animals. Although there are millions of hectares, it's a fief. Only investment but no income. This is an extremely heavy burden, just like the Mojia village in those years, I'm afraid the MOH mansion will collapse sooner or later.

Merton nodded solemnly: "Yes, the Mu Us desert is the closest desert to the Central Plains than any desert encountered during the western expedition. It has not a lot of precipitation, even more than the grasslands of Turks in the north. As long as there is precipitation, there will be plants. In this way, the difficulty of controlling the Mu Us desert will be much lower. As long as we persevere, prevent wind, fix sand and plant grass, sooner or later, The Mu Us desert covered with yellow sand will disappear and become an oasis spreading over millions of hectares. "

"The desert disappeared! Millions of oases!" suddenly everyone couldn't help but yearn. What a miracle it would be to change the vast desert into green grassland.

Li Shimin was no longer calm, but couldn't help holding his granddaughter and said with a frozen face: "do you know what a sin it is to bully the king."

Merton solemnly said: "As a father at the beginning, Weichen naturally wants to give his daughter the best, and the governance of Maowusu Desert is the greatest blessing Weichen has saved for his daughter. Within three years, Weichen can ensure that Maowusu Desert will not expand. In five years, the grass in Maowusu Desert will advance and retreat. In ten years, the governance of Maowusu Desert has achieved initial results, and the rest will let my daughter return a million hectares of green land in Tang Dynasty in her lifetime Land. "

Suddenly, everyone stared at the small body held by Li Shimin. It is said that Mohist Zi loved his daughter most. Now it seems that the rumor is true. Once the eldest daughter of Mohism has made achievements in governing the Maowusu Desert, no one can move her in the future as long as she has not committed a heinous crime, which is the greatest shelter for her daughter.

Li Shimin's eyes softened. Merton may deceive him, but he will never do anything that will damage his daughter's future. From this, Merton's governance of the Mu Us desert is indeed sincere and quite sure.

"Has she ever been named?" Li Shimin said softly, looking at his granddaughter.

Merton nodded and said, "the name of the Mo house has always been in the name of material objects. Since the little girl's future is to govern the desert, it's named after sand and called Mosha!"

"Mosha, how could a girl have such a rude name." Li Shimin glared at Merton and thought carefully,

"Sha, Tong Sha Yin, it's just that my granddaughter is going to plant green grass on the sand. It's better to add a straw head and call it Mosha!" Li Shimin's eyes lit up.

"Your Majesty is really talented!"

"Your Majesty is brilliant!

……………………

Suddenly, a group of officials flattered one after another.

"Thank you for your name!" Merton thanked his daughter.

Li Shimin thought of a good name and heard it praised by the people. At that moment, Longyan Dayue said, "Mosha is my granddaughter. Today I will make you princess Jinsha, with a million hectares on the back cover."

Everyone looked at the swaddling Princess Jinsha with envious eyes. In less than 20 years, a new rich man in Chang'an City has risen slowly.
