"Huaizhong, don't be in a hurry about this matter, bring in the experts of this construction, and give me a good total, don't be in a hurry about this matter...... Wan'er, let's go see the flowers. After Yang Reform finished giving instructions to Zheng Huaizhong, he turned his head to Queen Zhou Wan'er and said.

……

The group quickly arrived at the palace garden and walked around to watch.

Zheng Huaizhong came over again and said, "Your Majesty, there is a strange thing to be dedicated to the emperor." Zheng Huaizhong looked mysterious.

"Oh, Huaizhong, what good things do you have for me?" Yang Reform wondered, what kind of good thing is it?

"Your Majesty, this thing has flowed into our dynasty from overseas, and it has a very magical effect, and it is a strange thing." Zheng Huaizhong looked exaggerated.

Yang Gai was also attracted by this exaggerated expression. I want to know what it is.

After a while, a few little eunuchs came over with things. The top is also covered with a cloth. Holding it on a tray, I don't know what's inside.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is an overseas curiosity, pepper." As he spoke, Zheng Huaizhong gently shook off the tray covered with a cloth.

Spicy?? Yang Reform was thundered, and shouted in his heart that he was selling cakes. Isn't this my favorite chili pepper of the 21st century? This is what overseas strange thing Zheng Huaizhong said? Peppers?

Speaking of chili peppers, we have to talk about spicy, we have to talk about barbecue, this thing, the temptation is too great, Yang Gai couldn't help swallowing saliva when he thought about it.

Empress Zhou Wan'er also looked at the pepper curiously, and then curiously watched the emperor swallow his saliva violently. asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Is there anything wrong with this? ”

"This thing is a good thing! Good things ......" Yang Gengai seemed to smell the aroma of barbecue, and involuntarily swallowed a few more mouthfuls of saliva.

"Zheng Huaizhong, where did you get this thing?" Yang Gai was very curious, he had eaten the royal dishes for so long, and he had never eaten chili peppers, and he felt that there was a lack of flavor when he ate. Wouldn't it be nice if I could grow some of my own? Or, it is also a good choice to have a barbecue party in the Ming Dynasty and have fun with the monarchs and ministers.

"Your Majesty, the slave was found from an overseas dealer. The slave and maid searched for a long time. Zheng Huaizhong said that he became proud, it seems that the emperor likes this thing very much.

Yang Gengai thought in his heart, it was really good, this thing came to China from overseas, and it arrived in China at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and he was Emperor Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Eight Classics, and chili peppers were introduced to China at this time.

Yang Gai reached out to flip through the dried chili peppers. It looked very small, only the size of a finger, and the color was bright red, and I took it to the side of my nose and smelled it, and a spicy smell of choking nose went straight into my nose. Yang Gengai sneezed fiercely. "Ahh......h

Empress Zhou Wan'er hurriedly hugged the emperor and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Does it matter? ”

"It's okay, Wan'er, this thing is called chili, it's very spicy, and I just choked when I smelled it. Out of the way. "Yang Reform is happy, being able to eat chili peppers in this Ming Dynasty is really happier than being an emperor.

Fried in oil and dried spicy seeds.

Fry the chili peppers.

Hot and sour.

Spicy barbecue.

Malatang.

A variety of spicy ways to eat come to mind......

"Zheng Huaizhong, this thing is very good, do you have seeds? Know how to grow? "Yang Reform's first thought was to plant a few acres of land immediately, and he would not lack chili peppers to eat.

"Your Majesty, yes, yes, the seed of this thing is the small seed of this. In March and April every year, you can plant it, water it frequently, fertilize, and harvest it in the first month of the year, this, the slaves and maids have asked clearly...... "Zheng Huaizhong can't wait to give the emperor everything he knows from the merchants."

"How many seeds are there? What about this seed seller? ”

"Your Majesty, this item was found by the slave maid from a merchant who sold goods from the South Seas, and the person who sold it did not know where it had gone. The slave maid has a small bag of seeds here. "Zheng Huaizhong since the last time he heard that the emperor was interested in this thing, he did everything possible to find this thing, and the hard work paid off, and finally found the kind of thing described by the emperor in a shop that sold Nanyang goods, of course, it is the fruit of this kind of thing, in winter, the fresh plants that came there, under the repeated assurances of the shopkeeper, Zheng Huaizhong was finally convinced that this was the kind of pepper that the emperor was looking for. So, busy to buy it, put it in the palace, and when the emperor came one day, he dedicated it to the emperor, so as to achieve the purpose of getting close to the emperor, luckily, not long after, the emperor came to the palace again, Zheng Huaizhong hurriedly took out his treasure and dedicated it to the emperor.

"How many, take it and see ......" Yang Gengai really misses the chili pepper so much that he can't wait to use it to fry a few dishes and taste it to satisfy his appetite. I haven't eaten chili peppers for too long, and I'm tired of eating this dish. So, let's see how much stock there is, if it's more, you can fry two dishes, if it's less, then forget it, as seeds, you can eat it in the second half of this year.

Zheng Huaizhong agreed, turned around and went to the place where the peppers were hidden. This thing, the emperor likes it, he likes it, and he is going to have good luck.

After a while, Zheng Huaizhong came to the emperor panting with a bag of chili peppers: "Your Majesty,...... Slave...... The slave maid bought it, the pepper it bought, all ...... It's all here. ”

Yang Gengai also ignored Zheng Huaizhong, twisted the small cloth bag by himself, weighed it, it weighed about one or two catties, and opened it to see that it was full of red and bright dried chili peppers. Xindao, fortunately, I can get a few meals of chili peppers to eat, appetizing.

Empress Zhou Wan'er was also curious, the emperor was so interested in things that he couldn't help but come over to see what was new. I've heard that it's a new thing shipped from overseas.

Queen Zhou Wan'er leaned over and looked at the bag, it was all red and bright, and then there was a pungent and choking smell, and Queen Zhou Wan'er sneezed a few times. "Ahh "Ahh The snot is thrown out. The image is greatly damaged.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing! Why do you choke your nose like this......" Zhou Wan'er complained, expressing her dissatisfaction with the fact that a spicy person had affected her image as a queen.

"Hehe, Wan'er, it's choking, this is spicy! It's very spicy, it's very choking, be careful, hold your breath when you get close and you'll be fine......" Yang Gai smiled and taught Zhou Wan'er the experience of avoiding choking.

"I don't, this is too choking......" Zhou Wan'er expressed her dissatisfaction with the image of this thing just now.

"Hehe......" Yang Gengai had no choice but to smile and comfort Zhou Wan'er.

Well, choking your nose? This thing is choking. These days, Emperor Chongzhen Yang Reform, who has been thinking about how to fight against the wild boar skin, has a light in his heart, since this pepper can choke people's noses, it must also be able to choke horses' noses.

If you burn this dried pepper on the battlefield and throw it into the enemy's horse team, the horse will not choke to death if it inhales the spicy breath? Then, without horses, wouldn't the cavalry become infantry? By the way, people choke too. Doesn't that mean......

Yang Reform himself has had the experience of being choked, once cooking, burned too much, chili smoke came together, after being inhaled, Yang Reform first had a few fierce "sneezes" a dozen, and then the nose and eyes were spicy, tears, runny nose, the whole body was soft, as if even the lungs were coughed out, quite hard and uncomfortable, washed with water for a long time, before relieving the breath.

If you use this dried chili pepper on the battlefield, those barbarians who don't know what is going on won't be choked to death? Then his own soldier wore a mask and walked over calmly......

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen Yang reformed and shouted happily, "Yes!" The people around him, including the empress, stared at the emperor inexplicably, not knowing what was wrong with the emperor. So aberrated.

The more I thought about it, the more proud I became, "Hehe, hehehe,...... Haha, hehe......" Yang Gai couldn't help laughing, fantasizing that when he was fighting against the wild boar skin, he used a trebuchet to throw a lot of dried chili peppers and wrapped them into the enemy's camp, and then the wild boar skin was choked half to death, and his own soldiers wore masks and rushed to the camp of the wild boar skin, and the war was over. As a traverser, he won the war with unexpected methods of the enemy, and since then, he has become the first emperor of the ages. In this way, he doesn't need to raise money with great fanfare, and he will be the emperor. It is completely possible to kill the wild boar skin in this easy and simple way, Yang Reform unconsciously yy is excessive.

Empress Zhou Wan'er felt that this was really embarrassing, and the emperor was alone in front of everyone, smirking regardless of decency. The empress couldn't help it and stepped on Yang Reform's foot to remind the emperor to pay attention to the image. However, Yang Reform was on the rise of YY, and she didn't feel it, Queen Zhou Wan'er couldn't help it, and stomped hard.

"Ahh ......" Emperor Yang Reform, who was immersed in yy and couldn't extricate himself, let out a "miserable" scream, and the eunuchs and palace maids around were amused by the "funny" behavior of the emperor and the empress, so they couldn't help but laugh, and turned their heads away, as if they didn't see it.

Yang Reform came fresh, looked at Zhou Wan'er with a bad face, and knew that he had committed the old problem of a YY powerhouse again. I'm a little embarrassed.

Queen Zhou Wan'er pretended to be angry, ignored Yang Reform, and threw Yang Reform with white eyes.

Yang Reform was boring, so he had to say to Zheng Huaizhong: "Huaizhong, I like this pepper quite much, and I will give you a task to plant this pepper in a large area, you know?" "It's over, Yang Reform immediately assigned the task, since it may be useful, then you have to make complete preparations, this Ming Dynasty's "biological and chemical weapons", I don't mind using it. Maybe on the battlefield, I will rely on it to turn the tables.

Zheng Huaizhong treated this pepper as an ornamental plant, and when he heard that the emperor wanted to plant a large area, he was immediately dizzy.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how many acres of acres should be planted by slaves and maids?" Zheng Huaizhong decided to ask carefully to see how much area the emperor intended to plant. Otherwise, this good thing will turn into a bad thing.

"Here, let's plant a few dozen acres first." Yang Gai said it casually, feeling that dozens of acres should be enough for a war to consume.

Zheng Huaizhong was dizzy again, the ornamental objects are dozens of acres at a time, even if you reward the ministers, you don't need so much!

"Your Majesty, you want to plant dozens of acres, and there is not so much land in the palace." Zheng Huaizhong felt that he was really wronged, what he managed was only the palace garden, not this imperial village, and there were dozens of acres of land for him to grow things.

"None? Wouldn't I, the emperor, be so poor? Yang Gai wondered, he didn't seem to have reached the point of exhaustion, not even dozens of acres of land?

Wang Chengen couldn't stand it anymore, and came out to play: "Your Majesty, the land in this palace is planted with some ornamental flowers and plants, and only the imperial village outside the city can be planted with such a large land." ”

"Huangzhuang? …… Can you grow it? …… Then plant it in the Imperial Village. Speaking of Huangzhuang, Yang Gai remembered something, but he couldn't say it. I felt a little bit of an obstacle in my heart. But it was just a flash, and there was no careful thinking, and now that I got this "biochemical weapon" of the Ming Dynasty, I was happy, and I forgot all the obstacles in my heart.

Wang Chengen played again: "Emperor Qiqi, who is responsible for this matter?" ”

"Of course it's Zheng Huaizhong, this pepper is what he found for me, of course he planted it, this merit is also his Zheng Huaizhong's ......" If you have merit, you have to be rewarded, this is the basic priority of being the emperor, if you don't reward those who have merit, then who has a positive surname to do things for the emperor?" Therefore, not only to reward, but also to reward, to let others know that he, the emperor, is very generous.

"The slave obeys." Wang Chengen agreed.

Historically, the internal official supervisor and the Huangzhuang are two different things, and now let the people of the internal official supervisor take care of the affairs of the Huangzhuang, which is a bit out of bounds, so, this matter, Wang Chengen is smart, or ask the emperor for a "dictation", so that it is easy to do, and the people below dare not say anything, this is what the emperor means, if there is a problem, you go to the emperor.
