Chapter Seventy-Six: Potatoes
Hearing this, Li Si suddenly raised his head with a touch of surprise on his face.
Ever since he kicked the hot potato of 'Yi Xiaochuan' to Meng Tian, he has been secretly observing, and he has not done anything about the rest of the matter.
Whether it is Your Majesty or Meng Tian, these are all smart people, and Li Si still understands the truth that is too much.
I was waiting for this matter to be reported to His Majesty after a while, but I didn't want to be asked at this stall.
"That Yi Xiaochuan has the token of the Meng family army on his body, and the minister is afraid that this matter will be deceitful, so he handed this person over to General Meng Tian for personal inspection, as for the result, the minister does not know."
"See for yourself!"
As he spoke, Ying Zheng picked up a secret fold from the table and threw it down.
"Meng Tian interceded for this brother with the merit of exterminating the Huns, and also voluntarily demoted him to the first rank, it seems that most of this matter is true."
"Oh?"
Li Si was slightly stunned, and hurriedly opened the secret fold to look at it, and after a long time, he sighed:
"I didn't expect this person to be Meng Yi, the long-lost brother of the Meng family, how did he become a criminal in the imperial court, I think the people below should have made a mistake, and the minister sent someone to revoke his wanted."
"Wait! Since Meng Tian was willing to offset his military merits, he fulfilled his wish, and this matter ended here, so don't make any more mistakes. ”
Ying Zheng called out to Li Si and looked at him deeply.
"Recently, there has been some unevenness in the army, and I thought that I had made some contributions, so I flew up and beat it appropriately, which is also good."
Hearing this, Li Si's heart couldn't help but move, knowing that His Majesty was going to knock Meng Tian on the mountain and shock the tiger.
Since the flood in the south, the imperial court has promulgated various policies to help the victims, and there has been no disadvantage, but the attitude on the side of the military camp is the most negative.
As a representative figure in the army, Meng Tian naturally cannot escape the blame.
"I understand."
Li Si nodded, seeing that His Majesty's face was a little sleepy, so he hurriedly retired.
After Li Si left, Yingzheng had a touch of coldness on his face.
"Do you really think that the widow didn't see your trick of killing people with a knife?"
However, he knew that he still needed Li Si and the military to check and balance each other, and before the prince grew up, he could only turn a blind eye.
……
Surabaya-gun.
Early in the morning, Chu Yang took his family members to wield hoes in the backyard.
The two sisters of the Lu family stood aside, wiping Chu Yang's sweat and water from time to time, and they were very busy.
"Susu, how did you think about what I told you two days ago?"
Taking advantage of Chu Yang's inattention, Lu Pheasant whispered in his sister's ear.
"I ...... I ......"
Lu Su's face turned red all of a sudden, and he secretly glanced at Chu Yang in the distance, too ashamed to speak.
Since the eldest uncle mentioned the blind date, he came to the house every now and then to entangle, and his father was secretly complaining about the snake while being false and wronged.
If that's all there is to it, it's just a waste of drink.
What makes the two sisters unbearable the most is that Uncle Na likes to arrange Chu Yang's rights and wrongs behind his back.
Seeing that the man he liked was humiliated like this, if his father hadn't stopped him, Lu Pheasant would have turned his face on the spot.
After five times, Lu Pheasant really couldn't bear it anymore, so he discussed with his sister whether to elope with Chu Yang.
After hearing her sister's plan, Lu Su was also taken aback, and only said that she needed to think about it.
"Why, you're still hesitating, okay, then you can go and be a concubine for that Lord Meng, don't blame my sister for not reminding you, someone like Gongzi Chu will have to travel above the Nine Heavens sooner or later, if you can't be with him now, you can only watch from afar in the future."
Lu Pheasant didn't bother to care about the face of the Lu family, the future of that cousin, this kind of relative who saw the wind and steered the rudder, how far away or how far away.
"Of course I do, but ...... Daddy's ......"
Hearing her sister say this, Lu Su suddenly became anxious, as early as the first time she was rescued by Chu Yang from those gangsters, she had a sense of belonging.
If things really come to that point, she won't care about any etiquette rules, after all, happiness is her own business.
"Don't worry, I have my own way over there, and I promise to make that uncle have nothing to say!" Lu Pheasant said with a smile.
Chu Yang didn't know that the two sisters had secretly made a private decision for life here, and said to the two girls with a smile:
"Hey, if you don't help, don't even think about coming over to eat when the potatoes are harvested!"
The sisters of the Lu family looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly ran over.
"Chu Lang, what are the potatoes you are talking about, why do you bother to do it yourself?"
Chu Yang looked at Lu Pheasant, he hadn't seen him for a few days, and this little girl was much plump, and she had a lot of charms in her gestures, like a ripe apple.
"This thing is very valuable, with it, my people of Great Qin may never suffer from hunger again."
Chu Yang said as he carefully buried the seed in his hand into the soil.
After experiencing the shortage of pay in the army, he had a plan to cultivate potatoes.
However, the situation was urgent, and it would take some time for the potato cultivation to bear fruit, so I used pork to solve the urgent need.
Nowadays, the flood is rampant, and Daqin is in short supply everywhere, if you can cultivate potatoes, it can be regarded as a great achievement.
Originally, the two sisters of the Lu family only regarded potatoes as a game thing, but after listening to Chu Yang talk about the edibility of potatoes and the yield per mu, they all fell into a deep shock.
"What! You said that this thing can produce as many as 100 stones per mu! If this is the case, then the people will never be afraid of any natural disasters and floods in the future! ”
The two women looked at Chu Yang, all of them looking adoring.
Who the hell is this guy, and why can he even find such a divine object?
The two thought of what they had just discussed, and smiled at each other tacitly, admiring their wise choice again.
Next, under Chu Yang's guidance, the two sisters of the Lu family also planted their own potato seeds, and they could be harvested after just a few months.
The two girls played in Chu Mansion for a day, and it was not until the evening that they reluctantly left.
Before leaving, Lu Pheasant said something in Chu Yang's ear, which made Chu Yang break out in a cold sweat.
"Huh? Can it still be like this? ”
Chu Yang had insomnia all night, and when he got up the next day, it was past noon.
As soon as he had lunch, Li Ping came over with an embarrassed face.
As soon as he saw Chu Yang, he cried out with a "wow", and suddenly burst into tears.
"Lord Chu, you want to save the old man this time! It's over, it's all over! ”
"What the hell is going on!"
Looking at Li Ping's scorched face, Chu Yang had a faint bad premonition in his heart.
"I don't know what's going on, several of our coal mines have collapsed! The victims have been killed and wounded, and those family members are coming to you! ”
"Lord Chu, otherwise, you better avoid it first......"
