Chapter 147: Great Reward, Great Responsibility
In the evening, Mama Rong gave Shen Chengyao and Xiao'er the rules for the two of them to face the saint tomorrow, which is actually very simple, because the first time she faces the saint, it has the meaning of thanking the emperor for his reward, so she must make the most solemn gift.

Shen Chengyao bowed his head, and Xiao'er bowed nine times (that is, kneeling and prostrating three times in a row).
"The worshipper must kneel on the knee, press the right hand with his left hand, support it on the ground, and then slowly kowtow to the ground, stay for a long time, his hands are in front of his knees, and his head is behind his hands, this is the heaviest etiquette in the "nine worships" Mama Rong said to Shen Chengyao while demonstrating, and then asked Shen Chengyao to do the same, and then mentioned one or two points about the shortcomings, and then let him practice by himself, and then began to point out Xiao'er.
"When the girl salutes, first put down the horseshoe sleeves, then kneel, remember that the right leg kneels first, then the left leg kneels, straightens the upper body, stretches the right hand flat to the sideburns, palms forward, heads touch the ground, hands on both sides, straighten up, hands back to eyebrows, then head to the ground, then hands on both sides, straighten up, hands back to eyebrows, head to the ground,...... Repeat it back and forth and stand up three times, this is one kneeling and three bows, and you need to do it three times!" Mama Rong said as she demonstrated.
These movements are not difficult to do, but they need to be practiced skillfully and elegantly, so that people do not look rigid and stiff.
Xiao'er learns things quickly, is young, has a strong body flexibility, and soon makes her movements standard and smooth and elegant. It's embarrassing, it's Shen Chengyao, it is estimated that when he does the standard, he will definitely have back pain and leg cramps!
"On weekdays, girls will bow when they meet harem concubines, and when they meet the emperor, queen mother or queen, they need to curtsy. You don't have to do it all the time. Mama Rong taught the etiquette that should be known again.
Xiao'er silently complained about this backward ancient etiquette in her heart, fortunately she didn't live in the palace, otherwise she would be tired to death!
――
The next day, at dawn, Xiaofuzi came to pick up the two of them into the palace.
This time when she entered the palace, Xiao'er only brought Mama Rong alone.
The emperor would see them after the early dynasty, so they had to arrive early and wait for the edict to be delivered.
Coming to the palace gate, Xiao'er looked up at the most magnificent building in the world: under the blue sky and white clouds, the golden glazed tiles on the top of the heavy eaves hall are inlaid with green trimming, and the flame beads in the middle are topped, and the dragon and phoenix play with the pearls, which is particularly solemn and brilliant.
In front of the palace gate, the red wall and yellow tile, the vermilion lacquer willow nail gate, the purple pillar and the golden beam, the carved dragon and the phoenix, a pair of lifelike white marble stone lions sit on both sides, the momentum is magnificent, and the luxury can be done.
Xiaofuzi was originally a person in the palace, and he didn't need anyone else to lead them in.
He took the token and led the three of them all the way into the palace, Shen Chengyao and Xiao'er both looked straight ahead all the way, not daring to look around.
Xiao Fuzi led the two of them to stop in front of a palace: "The Hou Ye and the county lord are here for a while, the emperor has not yet gone down to court." ”
The two nodded, Xiao'er was a little expectant in her heart, she never thought that she would have the experience of meeting the ancient emperor in her previous life, but she was not nervous or anything.
Shen Chengyao was a little nervous, after all, he was about to meet the most powerful person in the world, with just one sentence, his family would prosper and die!
"Hou Ye and the girl will answer whatever the emperor asks for a while, and it is always wrong to be cautious in words and deeds. The old slave couldn't go in for a while, so he could only wait here for the Hou Ye and the girl. Mama Rong reminded.
The two nodded.
"My master, the sixth prince is also inside, don't worry. Xiaofuzi also reminded.
He feared that they did not yet know the identity of their master.
The two of them waited and waited, and the sun was so hot that Xiao'er's face was red, and finally waited for the edict!
"Xuansheng Pinghou, the lord of Rui'an County is here!"
……
In the Zihuan Palace, a slightly feminine and penetrating voice sounded.
The echo is loud and loud, and it goes around the beam three times.
The two unconsciously straightened their waists and climbed the stairs.
When she entered the palace, she found that the emperor and queen were sitting on the dragon chair, Xiao'er glanced at the two people on the dragon chair from a distance, but her eyes were good, and she found that it was a pair of middle-aged handsome men and beautiful women, and thought: No wonder Shangguan Xuanyi looks so demonic, and his genes are strong!
The two entered the hall, Shangguan Xuanyi sat in the position of the lower head, and the two respectfully saluted the three according to Mama Rong's teachings.
The emperor didn't put up a fight, and then called him flat.
"Throne!"
This made Xiao'er a little surprised! The emperor was too kind to their family!
When they heard this, they hurriedly bowed and thanked the Lord Long.
Xiao'er only dared to sit on half of her buttocks, and from the moment she came in, she did no more or no more in every movement, posture, expression, and etiquette rules, just right, elegant and natural, and even made people forget that this was just a little girl.
The queen nodded secretly, her eyes full of appreciation.
"What does Shengping Hou Zhezi mean by heterosis?"
Xiao'er didn't expect that the first question the emperor asked was actually this question, but she also analyzed Shen Chengyao.
"Back to the emperor, it was Weichen's daughter who got inspiration from the mule. Mules are born of stallions and she-donkeys, with strong vitality and disease resistance, strong physique, strong limbs and hooves, rich staying power, pulling carts, pulling mills, and ploughing are relatively easy to use, and a mule can last twenty to thirty years. She said that animal hybridization can have such an advantage, maybe food can also work, Weichen felt that it made sense, so he tried it, but he didn't expect it to be really successful. Because mules can't give birth, it is estimated that the rice grown by using heterosis is the same, and if there is no yield or can not always maintain a high yield, Weichen does not dare to guarantee it, so it is more safe to breed every year. ”
This is the only simple statement that Xiao'er can think of that can make them understand what heterosis is, otherwise they don't understand it if they directly tell them heterosis, and she can't explain so many professional terms.
"Can the rice harvested by Aiqing this year be used as seeds?" The emperor nodded, but he was cautious, not the kind of person who rejoiced in his achievements, but he wanted to know more about whether the thousands of catties of rice could be used as seeds and promoted, if so, then next year, the granary of the treasury would definitely be full!
Shen Chengyao nodded, "Weichen doesn't dare to guarantee that it can be as high as our family's current yield per mu, but it will definitely not be as low as before." ”
The emperor nodded after hearing this, "I have given you thousands of hectares of fertile land, can the Marquis of Shengping match the seeds of my rice next year?"
Xiao'er didn't think so, could they say no? I already knew that there would be such a result!
"Weichen must do his best!" Shen Chengyao stood up and clenched his fists to receive the order. Xiao'er said that if the emperor really has such a request, he should do it.
"Well, if this is done, I will be rewarded!" the emperor on the dragon chair laughed happily.
Xiao'er smiled bitterly in her heart, the reward is great, and the responsibility is greater, okay? If there is no space, Xiao'er really doesn't dare to let Shen Chengyao do this, hybrid rice can have a high yield, but how can it be so easy to study! When it is planted, she doesn't know that it will be the Year of the Monkey! But she has space, and the super rice in the space is the strong backing of her family! If she can take this opportunity to take out the rice in the space and seed it for Yum here, even if she can't guarantee that everyone can eat enough, she will definitely be able to eat two more mouthfuls of food! It should be regarded as a blessing for her relatives in the previous life.
Although she is not superstitious, Master Yunfa's words are still very touching to her by accumulating thousands of blessings in the glory of future generations! Not to mention that this is just a gesture of effort, a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, why not do it! (To be continued.) )
